Film Review ｜ The Three Battalions： ＂I hold＂ is also a philosophy of life.

2023年12月26日 | admin | fun
Text | Hu Xueyi Zhou Haoyu
Recently, the film "Three Battalions" was released, which broke through the box office of 100 million yuan on the first day, and the douban score rose from 7.8 to 7.9 on the second day.
"Three Battalions" is adapted from real events, and the prototype comes from the nonfiction work "Please tell the director that the task of the three battalions has been completed" by the author of "Netease Human Studio".
The film mainly tells the story that the three teams led by Cheng Bing, the captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade, caused one of the suspects to die unexpectedly in the process of handling a vicious case and was sentenced to prison. After he was released from prison, he still insisted on tracking the story of the fugitive suspect as an ordinary person.
Twelve years’ pursuit of the murderer can be said to be a kind of "self-persistence" of Cheng Bing. What about the persistence in truth, the persistence in principles and the pursuit of ideals?
The "I hold" of storytelling is the key point of double harvest at the box office.
The blueprint for the creation of the movie story, "Please tell the director that the tasks of the three brigades have been completed", was the winner of the annual click of Netease Literature in 2018, and was "asked by ten thousand people to make a movie". Director Dai Mo once said in an interview: "The story is touching enough, so there is no need to show off your skills. Its foundation is thick enough."
"There is no such thing as a big overhead shot, a big empty mirror, and aerial photography." In the director’s lens, there is only a slightly "flat" narrative. However, the calmer the picture and the more stable the rhythm, sometimes, the more it can highlight the risks of criminal investigation, the darkness of crime and the bitterness of life.
In recent years, the "new mainstream" movies have swept the Chinese film market. There are many movies and TV works like The Battle at Lake Changjin’s "Wolf Warriors" and My People，My Country’s, which tell grand stories closely related to the value orientation, such as feelings of home and country, national righteousness, etc. The movie "Three Battalions" tells the group story of sticking to the original heart and pursuing justice from the personal fate of police Cheng Bing.
Cheng Bing, once the captain of the third brigade, has strong professional ability and rich experience in handling cases. He had a bright career prospect and a happy family, and was sentenced to prison because the suspect died during the trial. However, the focus of film storytelling is not how Cheng Bing proves his ability with enthusiasm, but how he keeps looking for Wang Eryong in prison and after his release from prison, so as to reflect the professional belief of a policeman. It has nothing to do with identity, occupation and interests. What Cheng Bing does is also what the film wants to convey-"I hold" is an attitude towards life. It is not a "one-track mind" or a "dead end". It helps you to tell you the direction of your initial heart at the roundabout time of every life.
At the same time, the film also presents other characters with short but complete story auxiliary lines, such as Cai Bin, who deliberately went to a far-away place to open a bracelet shop, Ma Zhenkun, who "cleaned up" his daughter-in-law with only one kiss, Liao Jian, who is stingy but worried about his son, and Xu Yizhou, who was the first one who clamored to follow the captain to pursue the murder, etc., so that every turning point or conflict can be traced and followed logically, and the group portrait of the police will also come alive.
It is worth mentioning that in the plot after catching Zhang Eryong, Cheng Bing asked, "Can you be convicted without a confession now?" It makes people feel emotional. After leaving the public security system, the change of the times, the progress of science and technology, and the perfection of the legal system only surprised Cheng Bing for a moment, and then showed his joy in the progress of criminal investigation technology and mechanism. In the future, no more "Wang Eryong" will escape from the French Open.
Realistic "ego-holding", looking for the core of emotional resonance
At the beginning of the film, the elements of the crime suspense are "straightforward": the stairwell crisscrossed with cold and warm, the girl’s body covered with blood on a pure white nightgown, and the sultry and irritable southern summer night … Although the director does more imitation, who can refuse a crime movie with a lens picture like "Seven Deaths"? Subsequently, solving the case, deciphering and arresting the murderer were carried out step by step, until Wang Eryong escaped, the story became different and the emotion began to change tone.
If Cheng Bing’s promise of "solving the case within five days" is a policeman’s idealism, then what the film depicts next is a realistic "whipping" for more than ten years.
The police became prisoners, criminals became husbands of ordinary people, and several groups of misplaced relationships piled up the bones of the story. Even a policeman wearing prison clothes and carrying prison rules is still a policeman at heart. This dramatic conflict can be seen in many criminal investigation movies, and it is also the part that can best complete the three-dimensional and shining point of the characters. Whether it is the writer’s portrayal of characters, the director’s use of camera language or the actor’s interpretation of details, "Three Battalions" is undoubtedly handled properly, showing the forbearance of falling status, the despair of finding a needle in a haystack, and the "self-holding" of professional beliefs.
In the era when the reconnaissance system was not perfect, there was no monitoring and door-to-door search; No technology, relying on eyesight to compare faces; Without a team, a person travels all over the country, setting up a night market, working as a porter, a night taxi driver, a courier, a security guard in an Internet cafe, and a doorman in a community … The audience also substitutes from these daily and common real scenes. The alienation of his wife and daughter, the departure of his partners, the provocation of fugitives and other plots make those helpless, unsolvable and helpless feelings "reasonable" and strong, thus understanding and empathizing with Cheng Bing’s "I"
Although the whole film of "Three Battalions" is slightly weak in historical weight and humanistic speculation, it has found a "universal formula" for the new mainstream films in the current film market, which is one of the meanings of the work.
Everyone may have a "I hold" in their hearts, even at the moment of "I hold".
Don’t we spend our whole lives just to swim to the other side of "I hold" and really bid farewell to the past and move towards the future?

The Central Radio and Television General Station launched 20 episodes of the large-scale documentary ＂Resisting US Aggression and Aid Korea to Protect the Country and Defend the Country＂

2023年12月22日 | admin | weather

　　To commemorate the 70th anniversary of Chinese people’s Volunteer Army’s overseas war to resist US aggression and aid Korea, 20 episodes of the large-scale documentary "Resist US aggression and aid Korea and defend the country" produced by the National Memory column of the Central Radio and Television General Station will be broadcast continuously on CCTV-4 at 8: 00 pm from October 12th.

　　The film highly restores and comprehensively reviews the course of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and tells in detail the whole process of major historical events such as the difficult decision of the CPC Central Committee, the secret visit of volunteers to the DPRK, all previous major battles, the Korean armistice negotiations, and the triumphant return of volunteers, as well as some heroic models and fighting collectives of volunteers and their epic heroic deeds. Taking the course of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea as the main narrative line, the program disclosed the inside story and historical details of the decision-making in a panoramic, true and authoritative way for the first time, fully demonstrating the far-sighted political wisdom and strategic vision of Mao Zedong and the CPC Central Committee, and superb military strategy and command art; The people of China and North Korea fought side by side and forged a great fighting friendship with blood; As well as the great spirit of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea forged by the volunteers’ commanders and soldiers under the condition that their weapons and equipment were at an absolute disadvantage. This spirit played a great role in China’s subsequent socialist revolution and socialist construction, and it is still widely praised today.

　　In order to present a more comprehensive, in-depth and accurate picture of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea to the audience, the filming team conducted detailed research and combing at home and abroad for one year. For the first time, some precious files and telegrams were decrypted in the film, and more than 100 precious cultural relics to resist US aggression and aid Korea were photographed. Some historical images were first made public in the film.

　　The documentary also conducted rescue interviews with many people who witnessed the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. In order to ensure that the content of the program is authoritative and accurate, and the historical facts are rigorous and accurate, the filming team also interviewed authoritative experts at home and abroad to authoritatively interpret and deeply analyze the international background, battle course and historical details of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.

　　In the visual presentation of the program, while paying attention to the international vision and innovative expression, the film did not adopt the scene reproduction commonly used in traditional documentaries, but made full use of the shooting materials and a large number of precious historical images, cultural relics and archives to faithfully present the program content, ensuring the authenticity, visibility and historical sense of the program content.

　　China’s great war of "Resisting US Aggression and Aid Korea and Defending the Country" was a great feat of China people’s resistance against aggression without fear of violence. The war of resisting US aggression and aid Korea greatly enhanced China’s international prestige, established China’s status as a great power in the world, and broke the myth that the United States was invincible. This national memory will surely go down in the glorious history of People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Chinese nation forever.

IV. Verification of the purpose and approval procedures of the change of rights and interests

(1) Verification of the purpose of this equity change

According to the explanation issued by Mr. Ke Liming and Ruyi Investment, WANDA CINEMAS, as a leading enterprise in the film industry, has a leading market share in cinema film projection business, and also covers the business capacity of the whole industry chain of film investment, production, distribution and projection. Based on the recognition of WANDA CINEMAS’s long-term investment value and confidence in its future development prospects, Mr. Ke Liming intends to become the actual controller of WANDA CINEMAS by acquiring 51.00% equity of Wanda Investment jointly held by Wanda Culture, Beijing Hengrun and Wang Jianlin, and Ruyi Investment will become the controlling shareholder of WANDA CINEMAS.

After the completion of this transaction, Mr. Keliming and Ruyi Investment will combine their own resources and management experience to help the long-term healthy development of listed companies, enhance their profitability and bring good returns to all shareholders in accordance with the principle of being conducive to the sustainable development of listed companies and the interests of shareholders.

Upon verification, the financial adviser believes that the purpose of this change of rights and interests of the information disclosure obligor is clear and the reasons are sufficient, which meets the requirements of existing laws and regulations.

Upon verification, as of the signing date of this verification opinion, the information disclosure obligor has no plans to increase or decrease its rights and interests in listed companies.

This change in equity constitutes an indirect acquisition of listed companies. According to Article 74 of the Measures for the Administration of Acquisition of Listed Companies: "In the acquisition of listed companies, the shares of the acquired company held by the acquirer shall not be transferred within 18 months after the acquisition is completed." Therefore, the information disclosure obligor has made a commitment that, unless otherwise stipulated by laws, regulations or regulatory requirements, the Company will not transfer its equity in Wanda Investment within 18 months from the date of completion of this equity change, and Wanda Investment controlled by the Company will not reduce its shareholding in WANDA CINEMAS, a listed company.

Yu Yunguo’s Conversation with Lin Gu： Looking back on how the Northern Song Dynasty turned from prosperity to decline, and looking at the pluralistic interpretation of history.

2023年12月15日 | admin | fun

In June, 2022, the Beijing News Book Review Weekly and Cultural Living Room joined hands with Century Wenjing to jointly launch the theme activity "Going back to the time and going to the scene: the gaze and writing of history". When the stagnant time restarts, we take "history" as a method to reposition ourselves. 5 online activities, 12 famous guests, spanning history and stories, fields and texts, art and archaeology.

In the third session of the series, Yu Yunguo, a professor at the School of Humanities of Shanghai Normal University, and Lin Hu, an associate researcher at the Institute of Ancient History of the China Academy of Social Sciences, shared the theme of "Accident and Inevitability Behind the Rise and Fall of Northern Song Society". Speaking of the Song Dynasty, Chen Yinque once praised: "The culture of the Chinese nation has evolved for thousands of years and reached its peak in the Zhao and Song Dynasties." Then, how did it turn from prosperity to decline in the middle and late period, and it struggled in internal and external worries?

Looking back at the history of the Northern Song Dynasty, we will find that: internally, the traditional characteristics of attaching importance to civil administration in the Northern Song Dynasty are distinct, and Wang Anshi’s political reform was even more turbulent; Externally, it has been confronted with Liao and Xixia for a long time, and the interactive game between them is intriguing. When we get rid of the historical fog and return to the historical scene, the possibilities and inevitability in the historical process are worth pondering. At the same time, we may also be able to reflect on the development and evolution of the historical research concepts behind it.

"The interpretation of history is diverse." During the dialogue, Yu Yunguo and Lin Gu repeatedly emphasized this proposition. So, what does this "diversity" mean? For the public, it has long been a cliche that the same historical event can be explained from different angles, but despite being mentioned many times, when facing the specific historical context, one-dimensional interpretation still prevails. In Yu Yunguo’s view, this kind of "pluralism" actually means that there is no so-called "inevitable historical process", which is particularly evident in the social rise and fall of the Northern Song Dynasty.

As far as historical events are concerned, "pluralism" means opening to complex dynamics, and it needs to be studied from different angles to fully present it. Why is it said that the alliance of Chanyuan in the history of the Northern Song Dynasty may be "unyielding but not humiliating"? And how should we view the relationship between Qingli New Deal and Wang Anshi’s political reform?

As far as individuals in history are concerned, "diversity" also means facing up to the complexity of people. Sima Guang, who finished the famous historian Zi Zhi Tong Jian, is a great historian, but from the perspective of politicians, how should we evaluate his image? Song Shenzong’s likes and dislikes in the battle of Yongle City are well known, but above the court, he also has a mature side as a king.

"Going back to the historical process, what we should learn is a kind of compromise and balance." Yu Yunguo said frankly, only in this way can the so-called political wisdom finally turn into a kind of wisdom, and truly feed back the individual’s life. Lin Gu also said that only by looking at one’s life through political history can one truly touch the contingency and inevitability in the historical process.

Foreign relations in the Northern Song Dynasty: the alliance of Chanyuan was "unyielding but not humiliating", and the celebration of the calendar increased money or became a watershed.

In the political history of the Northern Song Dynasty, how to deal with its own relationship with Liao and Xixia has always been controversial. According to traditional historiography, since the beginning of the alliance of Chanyuan, the Northern Song Dynasty seems to have opened its humiliating road to peace. However, in recent years, many historians have called for a re-evaluation of the historical significance of the alliance of Chanyuan. In the dialogue, Lin Huan believed that the alliance of Chanyuan was actually "unyielding and not humiliating".

League of Chanyuan: In 1005, the Northern Song Dynasty signed a contract with Liao. Song and Liao were brotherly countries, with Baigou River as the border. Song provided Liao with 102,000 silver and 200,000 silks (in fact, they were old coins) every year. After more than a hundred years, there was no large-scale war between Song and Liao.

Lin Gu mentioned that in the initial confrontation between the Song and Liao Dynasties, the Northern Song Dynasty was not necessarily inferior. As far as the comparison of military strength between the two sides is concerned, the Liao army at that time actually avoided Song Jun’s main force and went around to the Yellow River. There was no large-scale military conflict between the two sides along the way, and the comparison of combat strength lacked intuitive presentation. On the other hand, Song also prepared for the decisive battle with Liao, and the speculation that Song people abandoned the city and fled in the traditional interpretation is open to question.

Then, back to the historical context, do people really think that the alliance of Chanyuan is a shame? By combing the relevant historical materials, Lin Gu found that Song Zhenzong and most courtiers were actually very satisfied with this, which ended the chaotic war situation in the north for more than 200 years and re-entered a new stage of relative stability. This also explains the original intention of the "Book of Heaven" in the near future, and the whole country celebrated a long-lost peace. It was not that the Song Dynasty tried to show the superiority of the cultural level through ritual activities because it thought that the alliance of the Yuan Dynasty was humiliated. Although this activity gradually went out of shape, it consumed a lot of financial and material resources and became a farce.

"Celestial Book" Sacrifice: Since 1008, Song Zhenzong has carried out a decade-long "Celestial Book" sacrifice activity, with a grand ceremony to seal Mount Tai to the east, and then went to Shanxi to worship the afterlife.

Lin Hu added that only by fine-tuning the judgment of the alliance of Chanyuan and other events can we deeply understand the social mood in the late Song Dynasty. After the signing of the Covenant, the illusion of permanent peace pervaded the Song people for a long time, so that after hitting the cold reality in the later period, they still couldn’t come back.

In this regard, Yu Yunguo recognized the rationality and progressive significance of the alliance at the initial stage, but he also mentioned that the interpretation of political history needs to be cut from multiple levels. Taking the sacrifice of "Tianshu" as an example, in addition to "celebrating peace", the rhetoric of the alliance under the city will inevitably stir up Song Zhenzong’s emotions, which makes the sacrifice itself contain the meaning of psychological compensation. In addition, it was obvious that the Great Song Dynasty at that time also hoped to improve its position in the East Asian political circle, which constituted another aspect of the "sacred book".

So, from a long-term historical perspective, what is the impact of the alliance of Eton on the foreign relations of the Northern Song Dynasty?

According to historical records, the alliance of Chanyuan actually ushered in new changes soon. During the period of Song Renzong, when Song and Xia became hostile, Liao took advantage of the fire to propose to increase the annual currency on the basis of the alliance of Chanyuan, and the Northern Song Dynasty finally compromised, which was called "increasing the currency by celebrating the calendar" in history. Traditional historiography holds that the revision of this agreement brought the three regimes of Song, Liao and Xixia back into balance. However, in Lin Gu’s view, the increase of coins in Qingli was more like a watershed in the political history of the Northern Song Dynasty, but it actually broke the previous relative pattern.

Song Renzong in film and television dramas. Song Renzong was the fourth emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty. During his reign, the Northern Song Dynasty and Xia signed a "Qingli Peace Negotiation" to increase the annual currency to Liao, and later appointed Fan Zhongyan and others to carry out the "Qingli New Deal".

Lin Gu noticed that the transformation of this relative pattern originated from words. On the one hand, in the alliance of Chanyuan, it was equal help to pay the old coins in the name of "help" in the North Song Dynasty, but this expression was replaced by "Na" in the increase of coins in Qingli, and the position of the word difference was very different. On the other hand, half of the increased 200,000-year-old coins came from Liao in the Song Dynasty, asking the latter to come forward and subdue Xixia’s "hard work". This move essentially broke the original equal relationship between Song and Liao Dynasties.

"This is equivalent to the Liao Dynasty completely becoming the boss, while the Song Dynasty became the younger brother who needed to seek asylum."

Yu Yunguo affirmed Lin Gu’s observation. He thought that it was a new viewpoint in the history of history of the Northern Song Dynasty to regard the increase of coins in the Qing Dynasty as a watershed. This judgment was helpful to re-examine the internal turning point of politics in the Northern Song Dynasty, which gradually took root in the people’s ideas and evolved into a long-lasting "fear of Liao" that permeated the ruling and opposition parties in the Northern Song Dynasty, and even had the same origin as the "fear of gold" in the Southern Song Dynasty. However, Yu Yunguo also suggested that the relationship among Song, Liao and Xixia should be viewed as a whole in the context of internal and external interaction, which was also continuously influenced by the internal political and social trends of the Northern Song Dynasty.

The internal affairs reform in the Northern Song Dynasty: The Qing Li New Deal laid the groundwork, but Wang Anshi’s political reform was powerless.

In the late Northern Song Dynasty, a series of persistent ailments appeared in the social process, which made the political reform imperative. However, whether it was Qingli New Deal or Wang Anshi’s political reform, these attempts failed to reverse the decline of Song Dynasty from prosperity to decline. Tracing back to the source, people often blame Wang Anshi for the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty. Song Gaozong even said in the Southern Song Dynasty: "The chaos in the world was born in Anshi." In this regard, Yu Yunguo believes that although Wang Anshi’s political performance in the process of political reform needs to be discussed, Wang Anshi’s political reform should be affirmed on the whole.

In Yu Yunguo’s view, on the one hand, in terms of the background of the times, Wang Anshi’s political reform is very necessary. With the easing of the political crisis in Song, Liao and Xixia countries, as well as the civil mutiny, Fan Zhongyan’s Qingli New Deal was pressed to pause. However, the deep-seated social problems have not been eradicated, which became the premise of Wang Anshi’s political reform.

On the other hand, the final failure of the political reform was influenced by many factors. The difficulty lies in the cooperation with the members of the class while damaging the vested interests, which determines that the political reform itself must need the support from Song Shenzong. "Simply attributing the problem to Wang Anshi is actually going beyond the original problem to talk about another problem. In the final analysis, there is a problem with the way of thinking."

In addition, the traditional view holds that Wang Anshi’s political reform was the beginning of party struggle in the Northern Song Dynasty. Lin Gu said that in fact, the atmosphere of party struggle in the Northern Song Dynasty had been formed before the Qingli New Deal, and the party disputes represented by Fan Zhongyan and Lv Yijian were once raging. However, today’s people are more willing to attribute the beginning of party struggle to Wang Anshi’s political reform. First, Wang Anshi’s influence on the politics of the Northern Song Dynasty is more lasting. Second, during the Qingli New Deal, Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu and others were the main force of party struggle. Later in life, they denied their earlier personal opinions, but Wang Anshi was involved in the party struggle for a long time and even became more and more intense.

Although the party struggle was particularly obvious in the political history of the Song Dynasty in general, Yu Yunguo suggested that this phenomenon was actually an unavoidable problem in the study of the ancient autocratic monarchy. In his view, the actual operation of absolute monarchy depends on the support of the bureaucratic system of scholar-officials. In this process, it is almost an unavoidable choice for scholar-officials to win the favor of the monarch in order to better carry out their political opinions.

In order to ensure the effective combination of the autocratic monarchy system and the bureaucratic system of scholar-officials, the system of "remonstrating with officials" was initiated in the Song Dynasty, and this system once reached the best operation state in the middle and early Song Dynasty. But since Wang Anshi’s political reform, the operation of this system has gradually deteriorated. In order to promote the political reform, Wang Anshi pushed out all the Taiwan remonstrators who criticized the new law. Since then, Taiwan’s remonstrance officer, an outsider who used to act as a supervisor and constraint, has become a puppet following the political opinions of the minister in charge. Yu Yunguo said that with the disappearance of the impartiality and objectivity of the whole platform remonstrance system in the Northern Song Dynasty, extreme emotional confrontation and empty political ideas became the keynote of talking in court, which gradually aggravated the sense of crisis in the internal affairs of the Song Dynasty.

Individuals in the historical process: multiple explanations point to the complexity of people themselves.

As far as the change of internal affairs and diplomacy in the Northern Song Dynasty is concerned, the pluralistic interpretation of history always calls for different judgments on the same event. For individuals in the historical process, pluralism often points to the complexity of people themselves. How should future generations evaluate the limitations of individuals in the great era? In the conversation between Yu Yunguo and Lin Gu, both of them think that our understanding of historical figures today may be far from enough.

For example, Sima Guang, who presided over the "Genghua of Yuan You", as a historian, made outstanding contributions in compiling Zi Zhi Tong Jian, but as the first minister of political reform in the late Northern Song Dynasty, it is worth discussing. After Sima Guang came to power, he tried to completely abolish the original exemption law within five days. "This kind of quick success and instant benefit is really not a decision that a politician will make."

Yuan Yougeng: During the period of Song Zhezong (the seventh emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty), the old party headed by Sima Guang overthrew Wang Anshi’s political reform and restored the old legal system.

Exemption law: a law promulgated by Wang Anshi during the political reform period, in which the corvee can be exempted from the corvee at the expense of the government.

When it comes to the political history of the Northern Song Dynasty, the evaluation of Song Shenzong has always been controversial. What is the historical position of the emperor who wanted to do something most in the Northern Song Dynasty after Song Taizu? Yu Yunguo analyzed the emperor’s complexity by taking the opening of Xihe River as an example. During the Song Shenzong period, with the support of Prime Minister Wang Anshi and presided over by Wang Shao, the Song Dynasty successively recovered six states, namely Dang, Dui, Taohe, Min, He and Lin (Xi), which was called "Xihe River opens the border" in history. However, this sport, which now seems to be strategically desirable and has achieved good results, is actually suspicious in the end.

Lin Gu also said that the problem of opening the Xihe River lies in Song Shenzong’s wrong expectation of this strategy, which he tried to make Xixia be attacked between Scylla and Charybdis, and to destroy Xixia in one fell swoop to achieve reunification. However, after the Northern Song Dynasty suffered successive defeats in Lingzhou and Yongle City, Song Shenzong turned a blind eye and remained immersed in the illusion of the destruction of Xixia.

In contrast, Song Shenzong was totally different when dealing with the relationship with Liao. When confronting the Liao army, its arrogance in the face of Xixia was completely replaced by the fear of being afraid of everything. In other words, "Liao phobia" seems to be particularly prominent in Song Shenzong. Yu Yunguo analyzed that in the issue of Liao, Song Shenzong actually showed a "humble" attitude, but this mentality imbalance was unexpectedly rebalanced on the Xixia issue. When facing Xixia, he seemed to be the superior who felt good about himself. The more polarized one end is, the opposite end will gallop in the opposite direction. This is an incomprehensible behavior to others, and the parties actually get psychological compensation and balance from it.

Fashion expert： Your color matching and hairstyle have ＂betrayed＂ your taste and temperament.

2023年12月14日 | admin | history

It’s said that a person can’t judge a book by its cover, but do you think a sloppy and vulgar person can treat life delicately and elegantly? Obviously not.

Taste and temperament do not depend on natural appearance, nor on the accumulation of many luxury goods, but on your clothes, color matching and hairstyle!

< Chapter 1 > Dressing & Color Matching

> > Two core ideas of dressing color matching

(1) the overall clean and tidy.

Even if it’s just a sweater and wide-leg pants worth dozens of dollars, as long as the color matching is clean and tidy, it will look much more advanced than others.

On the other hand, even wearing gorgeous fur, high-luxury custom-made clothes and too fancy color matching will only give people the impression of "nouveau riche", not taste and temperament.

② There is a sense of harmony that echoes each other.

The essence of dressing color matching is not the basic color, nor the popular color.But on the basis of keeping the color matching neat, see if the overall color matching is harmonious.

Take the color that is the most difficult for ordinary people to match. In these two sets of collocation, there is no basic color to control all over the body, but because of the echo of local colors, it has become a trend to look good. This is the charm of color echo to keep harmony ~

> > common color combinations

(A) the basic color-based collocation

① Summary of color matching dry goods

Basic colors refer to black, white, gray, brown, blue and red, which we often see in our lives and will be widely used. These colors are primitive and simple, and they are very easy to control.

There are these matching skills about the combination of basic colors:Combination of simplicity and complexity, three-color principle (no more than three colors as a whole), and color matching.

② on-site demonstration

The color combination that is the easiest to "circle" in the basic color must be black and white.Black-and-white matching can choose one color to be used in a large area and another color to be decorated in a small area, or you can use a color matching ratio of 1:1, 3:7, etc.

The above suit is matched with the first color matching method. Large-scale use of black to create a cool and handsome feeling, the combination of up and down width, white satchel in which can be called the finishing touch ~

(B) basic color+color collocation

① Summary of color matching dry goods

The combination of color and basic color is a fashionable "ceiling" color matching for ordinary people. Fashionable and vivid colors blend into the low-key of basic colors, which is the best interpretation of fashionable color matching.

Color usually choose 1-2 as the key points of color matching. The color used in a large area is best placed on the upper body, and the color that appears in a small area is best echoed in other parts.

② on-site demonstration

Bright cream yellow is like sunshine. Wearing it on your body can make you feel good at a glance.

The suit is folded in avocado green tube top, and white wide-leg pants are worn in open-toed shoes. The overall fresh and beautiful color is brighter than spring!

(C) full-color collocation

① Summary of color matching dry goods

When the whole body is mainly matched with colors, it takes some thought.The colors used in a large area should be easy to control, and it is not suitable for large-scale contrast and conflict between colors.

Color matching should be combined with depth, and small-area colors should echo up and down or up and down.The color closest to the face must be the easiest to control and the most white.

② on-site demonstration

This full-color overskirt collocation does not choose too prominent high saturation or high brightness colors, but chooses the colors of Mo Landi color system for combination.

The gentle smog blue sweater is super white, with a gray-tone grape skirt. The whole seems to be shrouded in gentle light, beautiful and temperament ~

< Chapter II > Temperament & Hairstyle

> > three keys to getting a haircut

① Even and non-mainstream hair color

Few people think that girls with non-mainstream hair colors will have temperament with a haircut that kills Matt.

When choosing hair color,Try to stay away from colors that are too bright and colors that are too fancy.Choose low-key and attractive earth tone or other hair colors with earthy tones as the main color.

② Smooth and not rough hair.

The ugly duckling turns into a swan is a scene that many girls yearn for. In film and television works, the first step for a woman to become a noble princess from Cinderella is to fix her hair.

Rough, hairy, forked and yellow hair looks sluggish and sloppy, how can it bring people a sense of advanced? The silky and smooth hair is like seaweed, dreamlike, and the temperament is completely different!

③ Appropriate and natural hairstyle

But don’t think that as long as you get the hair color and quality, you can sit back and relax in your hair style. If you pick a hairstyle that is not suitable for you, it is a waste of your own face value.

Take Gulnazar as an example. She is recognized as a beauty. It is a waste to press her short hair on the left. The retro and gorgeous curly hair on the right is dignified and elegant, which is what a beautiful woman should look like ~

> > three steps to complete the beautiful hairstyle.

(step 1) preliminarily confirm the hairstyle according to the face shape.

And how do ordinary people fix their hair styles? The first step you have to do is to choose the hairstyle that suits you best according to your face.

The core principle of choosing hairstyle is that face and hairstyle can foster strengths and avoid weaknesses and make up for each other.

Cute round face is more suitable for long hair in shawls.Not suitable for any heavy long straight hair. Also not suitable for long straight hair is a square face.Square face is more suitable for micro-curls.

Diamond-shaped face with prominent cheekbones is not suitable for any face-to-face hairstyle, and is suitable for hair with fluffy feeling.Any other face with prominent bones is also suitable for fluffy and curvy hairstyles.

(Step 2) Add details according to the overall effect.

After initially determining your hairstyle, naturally you can’t achieve 100% perfect effect. You still need some details.

If you look bald, you need to make your hair fluffy, and use fetal hair bangs at the hairline to create a natural hairy flu.

If the face still looks unsmooth,Then you need to choose some thin bangs to decorate.

The long face can shorten the horizontal bangs of the face, and the wide face can lengthen the vertical long bangs of the face.

(Step 3) Post-care and create a natural fluffy feeling of hairstyle.

Hairstyle can’t be done once and for all, and it needs careful care.Don’t wash your hair frequently and don’t dye it many times.These will all hurt the scalp.

The essence of fluffy hair style lies in the integration of air sense.The thinness of bangs and the three-dimensional hair roots can create a fluffy feeling.

< chapter 3 > get the final result of hairstyle+color matching.

(Example 1) Retro curly hair with harbor wind suit

In this typical retro costume, hairstyle and clothing have played a mutual echo role, creating a literary and romantic atmosphere.

The classic Hong Kong style suit uses black and white color matching to make black retro curly hair romantic. The addition of dark green gold-inlaid leather bag and green silk scarf makes this romantic atmosphere more intense.

(Example 2) Skillful short hair with a suit

And this set of white-collar style in the workplace, the hairstyle chose short hair that looks more neat, rather than fluffy and retro curly hair.

The neat sense of hairstyle and the advanced sense of the suit, combined, are super suitable for the stability and temperament of people in the workplace ~

< final chapter >

Clothes and hairstyles can’t fight alone. Only when they are both combined can our taste and temperament be finally displayed.

The taste of clothing depends on color matching, and the overall temperament and local exquisiteness come from hairstyle.Start from these two points and meet your own counterattack moment!

Women who have seen the world： don’t wear gold and silver, don’t spend money on clothes, don’t curl their hair, and they are elegant and temperament when they are old.

2023年12月13日 | admin | news

Envy those women who are not affected by age, but still have extraordinary temperament even when they are getting older. Instead of envy, it is better to learn how to look up to them and learn more about how these elegant women dress themselves up every day. I believe you can also make a big change.

Do remember! Women who have seen the world will not wear gold and silver, clothes and hair, because to be a temperament woman, it is necessary to be exquisite from beginning to end, without a detail. If you operate like this, it will be difficult to be elegant until you are old!

It can be elegant when you are old, and it is analyzed in three parts:

The first part, hairstyle-don’t curl your hair at will

(i) Several negative cases of curly hair:

① instant noodles

The curling degree of instant noodles is exaggerated, and if it is not taken care of well, it will also cause a messy effect. Moreover, the instant noodle head directly enlarges the head, making the face of the head look very big. This hairstyle will become aunt as soon as it is left, especially without makeup.

② explosive head

The explosive head is a more exaggerated hairstyle based on the instant noodle head, which may be a combination of high bulkiness and instant noodle head. In short, leaving this hairstyle will only make people feel that you are a second-dimensional person, not everyday, and there is no beauty at all.

③ Wool roll

Wool rolls have higher requirements for hair quantity, and people with less hair quantity will be more suitable. If the hair is a little careless, it will become the type of explosive head, so it is easy to make the overall image sloppy and unfocused, and it is easy to split.

(2) Keep a natural hairstyle that pays attention to fluffy feeling.

1. Collarbone micro-curly hair

The length of the clavicle is the least height-conscious, and staying tall and short will not affect the proportion of the whole person. Moreover, with the range of micro-curls, the hair will look less stiff and add a lot of foreign flavor. More importantly, it can highlight the lines of the neck and clavicle, which will visually make the upper body thinner.

Shoulder-length natural straight hair

Straight hair about the length of the shoulder has a sense of lightness between the length and the length. It retains the conciseness and comfort of short hair, but also brings the exquisiteness and femininity close to that of long hair. In addition, it is a more natural straight hair, and the overall image will appear more elegant and temperament.

3. Short straight hair over the ear.

Short hair just over the ears is very capable and exquisite. If it doesn’t exceed the ears, it will look too masculine. The overall image is biased towards men’s style and has no femininity. This kind of short straight hair concentrates the sense of refinement and comfort, and can also show the slender lines of the neck on the side, which has different advantages for people with long or short necks.

The second part, wearing-not gaudy.

A focus on taste should be good at subtracting clothing.

(1) The style of clothes emphasizes texture rather than design.

We should be good at wearing basic clothes and bottoms, and reject all styles with surface design, such as prints and three-dimensional elements! And the quality should also be checked, and it will be expensive when you wear it.

The soft wool of woolen coat, the drooping feeling created by the three-dimensional thickness of jeans, or the softness and delicacy of simple matching sweaters, each single product can achieve a very fine sense of high-end quality, and there will be no frivolity and no sense of inferiority. Both sets are very simple to wear, but they are enough to appear very advanced in taste.

For example, when we choose the simplest shirt, we must choose a material that is not easy to wrinkle and deform. This silky material with a pearly feel will refract light and shadow on the upper body and will not be easily affected by external forces. It is best to match it with suits and pants with the same strong sense of drooping, so that the whole will develop in a smooth and flat direction.

⑵ Simple collocation is clear at a glance.

This follows the effective combination of tightness, depth and softness. Seemingly plain minimalist collocation, but you can see that the dark slim top of the upper body is outstanding for slimming; At the same time, the stiff material of the lower body is also very stylish, and the outline of the legs is out. Paired with a wide tube of trouser legs, it is in sharp contrast with the slim upper body, and it can also cover all kinds of shortcomings in the legs, so as to be slim and tall with confidence.

The combination of black and white in color and the same sense of material make this set very convincing. Full of neutral and heroic beauty, stiff sweaters and suit pants, as well as classic and soft black and white complement each other. You don’t need to decorate it, just concave a shape is full of high-grade feeling!

(2) Be good at finding some color combinations with high sense.

-advanced colors are not dark or bright, and there must be a bright side in color matching.

Like these deep black, gray blue, etc., they are old-fashioned colors when they are worn. Young women wear them without vitality, while older women wear them more old-fashioned, which is not suitable in short; There is also a fluorescent color with brightness and no texture. Although it is bright when worn, it is also very tacky.

(1) light color and cold color with advanced beauty upgrade.

The color of the cold feeling is biased towards the winter atmosphere, and most of the colors are blue-green or gray, etc. When matched with light colors, the upper body will have a shiny feeling. Moreover, the combination of dark gray suppresses this cold temperament, and the light color is just right, which even magnifies the advantages of cool color.

⑵ The combination of dark color and warm color shows the beauty of foreign color difference.

Warm colors are different, and they have enough eye-catching strength. Just showing warm colors is already very foreign. Matching with light colors will weaken the fashion sense of this contrast, but using deep colors as the background board will immediately highlight the bright eyes of these warm colors, and the eye-catching parts will be seen immediately after a comparison.

The third part, accessories-don’t wear gold and silver

(1) The inclusiveness of gold and silver is too small.

A sense of high class needs a certain clothing style to match.

A slight increase in style and details will be exaggerated or rustic.

Accessories made of gold and silver are generally set off by formal or grand clothes, and clothes that are too simple and casual are somewhat out of place with these accessories. And especially gold, the style should be chosen very carefully. If you exaggerate a little, you will wear it very rustic.

(2) It is easier to directly select images with elegant and advanced temperament.

(1) representative accessories with quality can be grasped at a glance.

A watch is a single item that can best show a person’s fashion taste.Senior people will definitely choose watches for jewelry decoration. There are many grades of watches, and expensive watches can even buy a suite, so look closely at those who have taste, or those who have money, and prefer to study watches.

Bags are also a fashion weapon that can easily show the taste and texture.Cheap bags and expensive bags can be reflected not only from the brand logo, but also from the material and workmanship. Even if you wear simple and simple clothes, you can’t stop your sense of high-grade when you carry your expensive bag out of the door.

⑵ "Soft accessories" have more choices.

The ornament of accessories is not only gold, silver and jewelry to achieve a sense of high quality, but also soft peripheral elements can actually play a very good role in ornament.Hats, shawls, scarves or belts,They all belong to soft accessories that can play a plus role.

Learn from women who have seen the world, and they will never wear gold and silver, or make their hair styles and clothes fancy. Everything is simple and elegant, so that they can be so elegant and elegant until they are old.

When the beauty of domestic products ushered in a trough, upstream factories and downstream brands thought about these methods ｜ First-line economic notes

2023年12月11日 | admin | weather

Interface journalist | Zhou Fangying

Interface News Editor | Lou Qinqin

In mid-May, the 27th China CBE Beauty Expo, which was postponed for one year, was held in Shanghai New International Expo Center. Over 220,000 square meters of the venue, the memorable lively scenes reappeared shoulder to shoulder. It is not difficult to see the enthusiasm of people in the beauty industry and their confidence in boosting the industry.

During the epidemic period, the demand for beauty products as non-essential products was cold, and the offline circulation links such as warehousing, logistics and retail stores were stagnant, and the upstream and downstream enterprises in the whole industry chain all encountered "dark moments". Fortunately, after entering 2023, these enterprises have seen hope again.

The total retail sales of cosmetics from January to April was 129.9 billion yuan, up 9.3% year-on-year, which exceeded the level of the same period in 2019 before the epidemic. This is also reflected in the financial reports of various local listed beauty companies-Marubi shares and Shuiyang shares all returned to growth in the first quarter of 2023, getting rid of the "most difficult 2022".

But all this has just begun. Many people in the industry who participated in the Expo admitted that the sales rebound in January and February was less than expected, and the response of e-commerce promotion on Women’s Day on March 8 was flat. Enterprises need to speed up the solution of those problems that are not obvious in the period of rapid development, so as to seize new growth opportunities.

As a partner of many international brands such as L ‘Oré al, Lancome and Sisley when they first entered the e-commerce channel in China, Liren Lizhuang successfully landed in the capital market in 2020 and became a cosmetics online retail service provider with comprehensive data insight, online operation and brand marketing. After listing, Liren Lizhuang began to develop its own brand based on its original experience in the cosmetics industry. At present, it has effective skin care brand Meiyitang, China characteristic plant brand Yurongchu and so on.

Qiao Xiaoling, director of the research and development department of Liren Beauty Cosmetics, who is leading the research and development of new products, told the interface fashion that from the data of e-commerce market, the current consumer preferences are polarized. Consumers with strong economic ability are still loyal to high-end cosmetics, while some consumers whose mentality has changed from excitement to conservatism pursue products with higher cost performance.

This means that the mid-range beauty products are cold.

Cosme Meishi, the head foundry behind famous beauty brands at home and abroad, such as L ‘Oreal, Estee Lauder, Perfect Diary and Hua Xizi, also found the same rule from the needs of cooperative customers.

Cosmis is a Korean cosmetics ODM company, but China has already become its second largest market. Liu Yuanli, deputy general manager of Cosme Meishi’s production headquarters in China, told Interface Fashion that some brand customers are focusing on products with high performance-to-price ratio and strong efficacy, that is, "increasing the quantity without increasing the price", and improving the added quantity and efficacy of ingredients to the critical value as much as possible under the same pricing.

Qiao Xiaoling also mentioned the same development idea. In addition to maximizing the efficacy of products, they will also make precise development according to consumer demand and provide consumers with combined products to cover all their needs. For example, sensitive muscle consumers may need to spray in the sun environment in addition to daily water emulsion, so they will develop it based on the needs of the scene.

In cooperation with local beauty brands, Liu Yuanli also found that some brands that were originally priced by the public began to try to pursue high-end. For example, a brand originally sold lipstick for one or two hundred yuan, and now it will consider launching products with a price of four or five hundred yuan. Some local skin care brands have also begun to put on shelves skin care products with a retail price of thousands of yuan, and they have the courage to fight with international brands.

In the past three years, due to the epidemic, the traffic and logistics were not smooth, and the influence of online and offline sales was a common problem disclosed by many beauty brands in financial reports and external information, and this problem was solved with the liberalization of the epidemic. However, the "stuck neck" problem that the main raw materials depend on overseas markets has become more prominent after this epidemic.

A cosmetics researcher told the interface fashion that during the epidemic period, the problems of overseas raw material procurement interruption and price increase caused many brands to rush to the local market to find alternative raw materials. However, it is very complicated and time-consuming to replace raw materials by re-debugging the formula, filing and registering. Therefore, the delay in launching new products and the increase in development costs have been more problems in the past three years.

The reason why substitute materials are hard to find is that there are not many local manufacturers of daily cosmetics raw materials in China cosmetics industry chain.

Qiao Xiaoling said that this is because if the basic raw materials such as surfactants are only used in a single domestic market, the output may not cover the input, and the quantity efficiency is not high; On the other hand, head chemical enterprises such as BASF and Dow started from large chemical industry, and then gradually entered the fine chemical industry in the fields of daily cosmetics. These international manufacturers basically monopolize the global market share, and it is difficult for domestic small manufacturers to start from scratch.

For the present cosmetic manufacturers, the development of functional active ingredients, a subdivision of raw materials, is a new starting point for competition.

In 2018, Kosmet Group established a raw material company in China, aiming at developing exclusive raw materials with China characteristics. Its newly introduced X-fine ultra-fine powder treatment technology claims to make the base makeup lighter and lighter. Liu Yuanli said that these exclusive technical raw materials can not only help Cosme to expand its own quantity, but also feed back the upstream raw materials companies that provide basic raw materials.

In China, similar manufacturers of raw materials focusing on active ingredients have begun to show their edge.

Qiao Xiaoling takes ergothionine, a popular ingredient in the skin care market, as an example. When ergothionine was first synthesized abroad, its cost price was very high, reaching 200,000 yuan per kilogram. However, after using biosynthetic technology to increase the output of ergothionine in China, the price reduction is immediate, and its current market cost price is basically 60,000 yuan to 70,000 yuan per kilogram.

The technical realizability and broad application market prospect of these functional active ingredients undoubtedly bring new opportunities to local brands. Oriental plant components, peptides, oligopeptides and other peptide compounds are the hot research directions in the domestic cosmetic market at present.

In the past, there were many local skin care brands featuring herbs in China, such as Yiyibucao and Baique Ling. However, compared with the efficacy memory of nicotinamide, boson and other compounds, the efficacy of herbal skin care products always has a sense of distance.

Liren Lizhuang’s own brand Yurongchu has listed a series of products with saffron extract as the main functional ingredient since the beginning. In Qiao Xiaoling’s view, there is still a lot of room for development of oriental herbs. The key is to thoroughly study how to better extract and retain their active ingredients, how to make them work with other ingredients in the formula, scientifically present their mechanism of action, and further verify their safety.

Since L ‘Oré al, Revlon and other international brands entered China for a century, the cosmetics market in China has only developed for more than 20 years. However, local cosmetics enterprises have begun to ponder how to surpass these international competitors by admiring, learning from and learning from them. Everyone reached a consensus that independent research and development is the way to build core competitiveness and barriers.

Local listed cosmetics companies such as Polaiya, Shuiyang, Marubi and Betani all invested in heavy assets projects such as production R&D bases after raising funds. For some brands that get goods from foundries and start with online marketing, in-depth cooperation with foundries is a path to overtake in corners.

In 2020, Yixian (Guangzhou) R&D and production base jointly established by Perfect Diary parent company Yixian E-commerce will be officially put into production this year. In 2022, Kosmet also established a joint venture with Pellet Group, the parent company of new brands such as UNNY, RNW and Aiyu, in Fengxian, Shanghai. Eye-catching shows that the equity ratio of Zhongke Simesi and Pellet in the joint venture company "Pellet Cosmetics (Shanghai) Co., Ltd." is 82%.

Liu Yuanli said that this is a two-way win-win model. The brand side can gain the inclination of the R&D and production capacity of Cosme Meishi, shorten the development cycle, reduce the production cost and so on, and stabilize its own supply chain. Cosme poetry can cultivate more long-term and stable customers, maximize its own production capacity and ensure sales.

In the past three years, the pain felt by downstream brands has also been transmitted to upstream manufacturers, which is reflected in problems such as reduced orders and vacant production capacity. To stand out from the fierce competition in the supply chain, upstream manufacturers must also change the previous thinking of "waiting for customers to come" and actively increase service to stabilize old customers and expand new customers.

In order to recover quickly after the epidemic, Kosmet reconfigured the personnel structure, reduced the number of front-line production personnel by upgrading automation equipment, and increased the recruitment of R&D personnel.

In the past, Cosme Poetry Research Department was only divided into two sections: skin care and make-up, and the increase of researchers also made it refined into the special development of specific product categories such as cream and tissue substances. In addition, Cosme has set up a testing service center to shorten the time and cost of sending products to a third-party testing company for efficacy evaluation.

Because OEM manufacturers often receive orders from brands one to two months in advance to stock up, they are more sensitive to the recovery of the cosmetics market.

Liu Yuanli said that with reference to the data in 2021, Kosmet will achieve year-on-year growth in the second quarter of this year, and the company has begun to feel the atmosphere of 618 e-commerce promotion this year. In addition, from the communication with many brands, the third quarter, which was sandwiched between 618 and double 11 in the past, was a low point in sales, but this year may become a "turnaround" moment in the beauty industry. And the fourth quarter, which includes double 11’s big promotion node, is the expected opportunity for the big outbreak.

At the time of the outbreak of local beauty brands two years ago, it was a hot topic to seize the opportunity and eat up the bonus. However, in the period of fading traffic and low industry, introspection and self-cultivation are the starting points of the brand’s long March from 1 to 100.

Beauty companies based on a single main brand began to exert their brand matrix, such as the make-up brand Caitang to Polaiya, and the high-end anti-aging brand Jieke to Betani; New subdivided blank areas have begun to attract attention. For example, Nature Hall launched the efficacy brand "Own Out" focusing on baby’s fragile muscles at the US Expo; Starting from the cutting-edge brands who have made a fortune online, we are beginning to pay attention to the importance of offline channels. For example, Hua Xizi opened its first flagship store in Hangzhou, and tested the water in pop-up shop in Japan.

These new attempts are new opportunities for local cosmetics enterprises to explore and create for themselves, and they are also important signs of industry recovery and future development.

Do a good job in the ＂answer sheet＂ of higher level development of education

2023年12月11日 | admin | sports

"The collapse of the county" and the difficulty in introducing excellent educational talents … As an underdeveloped prefecture-level city located in the southwest of Hunan Province, the regional GDP ranking is not in the top of the province. In the past few years, the overall level of basic education development in Yongzhou City was still hovering in the middle and lower reaches of Hunan Province.

How to achieve a higher level of education development?

"Adhere to the priority development of education, implement the strategy of building a strong city through education, and play a’ combination boxing’ around promoting high-quality and balanced development of education, improving teaching quality, and narrowing the educational gap between the north and the south, so as to promote the high-quality development of education in the city!" Zhu Hongwu, secretary of Yongzhou Municipal Party Committee, said.

With the attitude of striving for the first place, Yongzhou handed over an "answer sheet" for the development of education at a higher level. From 2020 to 2021, Yongzhou’s education work won the encouragement and praise of Hunan provincial government for its hard work supervision twice; In 2022, it was awarded "excellent" in the evaluation and assessment of municipal and state governments’ educational responsibilities … What is behind this to promote the change?

Promote at a high level to solve the "collapse in the county"

The quality of high school education and teaching in Daoxian, ningyuan county and other counties is not high, which was once a pain point in Yongzhou.

In 2023, the secretary of Yongzhou Municipal Party Committee and the mayor successively organized special investigations to gain an in-depth understanding of the development of county-level ordinary high schools, and proposed to carry out the assistance and co-construction of Yongzhou No.1 Middle School and Yongzhou No.4 Middle School in Ningyuan No.1 Middle School and Daoxian No.1 Middle School, so as to promote the high-quality development of county-level high schools in the city.

"Twinning to help county-level ordinary high schools, the county party committee and the county government bear the main responsibility, and the city and county-level supervision offices have been keeping an eye on it for a long time …" Zhu Hongwu said that Yongzhou promoted twinning to help county-level ordinary high schools as a major educational reform.

In September, the counterpart support team entered Daoxian No.1 Middle School and Ningyuan No.1 Middle School to carry out their work, and started with the establishment and improvement of various school management systems to help the school improve the scientific and standardized management level.

Yongzhou City and Helping Counties set up a special fund of 10 million yuan for the aided schools every year, and establish and improve the incentive mechanism for work evaluation. Every year, the local county party committee, county government and the Municipal Education Bureau organize the performance evaluation of cadres and teachers sent by the municipal high schools, and those who pass the examination will be rewarded by the county where they are located every year.

"The municipal and county finances have also set up special funds for our school to ensure that we and the cadres and teachers sent by the municipal high school will carry out all aspects of teaching, research and education reform in a normal way." Mary, a teacher from Daoxian No.1 Middle School, said.

"The quality of high school education is one of the important indicators to measure the quality of education and people’s satisfaction in a region. We will continue to increase urban planning and help nanbu county, such as Ningyuan and Daoxian, get out of the dilemma of’ collapse in the county’. " Chen Ailin, deputy secretary of Yongzhou Municipal Committee and mayor, said.

It is reported that the city has invested 1.77 billion yuan to build six public ordinary high schools with high standards, and invested more than 500 million yuan to rebuild and expand nine public ordinary high schools. In the past five years, the city has added nearly 50,000 high school places.

Optimize and improve quality to solve the problem of "more but not better"

Jump rope happily for 10 minutes between classes, and have the same music class with the students who help rural schools … Recently, children are enjoying a happy campus life at the teaching point of Shankoupu Village, Tuojiang Town, Jianghua Yao Autonomous County.

In the past, there were many teaching points in Yongzhou, accounting for a relatively large proportion in Hunan Province. Rural education was "big but not strong" and teaching points were "many but not excellent". Sprinkling pepper noodles is not only difficult to see obvious results, but also wastes resources.

In the spring of 2020, Yongzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government took the lead in exploring the optimization and upgrading reform of rural small-scale schools in Xintian, and achieved more than expected results. "Xintian Experience" was also selected as "100 Cases of Exploration of Grassroots Reform in Hunan".

Based on the "Xintian Experience", in 2021, Yongzhou continued to make efforts to optimize and upgrade small-scale rural schools as an important measure to promote the balanced development of urban and rural education and boost rural revitalization, and comprehensively promote the optimization and upgrading of teaching points in the city. In the past three years, Yongzhou has embarked on a path that can be replicated and popularized in the optimization and upgrading of rural teaching points.

Up to now, the number of rural teaching points in the city has been optimized and upgraded to 353, 236 left-behind Children’s Home schools have been established, and 535 online joint schools have been built. All small rural schools in the city have achieved full coverage of the Internet and Banbantong.

"Let every rural child enjoy a better education, which is the solemn commitment of the municipal party committee and the municipal government to the people of the whole city." Huang Zanxiao, Party Secretary and Director of Yongzhou Education Bureau, said. Through continuous efforts, Yongzhou has basically realized the transformation from "small and weak" to "small and beautiful" and "small and excellent".

Bringing education together to solve the "teacher dilemma"

Yongzhou’s economy is underdeveloped, and its attraction to talents is limited. At one time, it faced the difficult problem of teachers’ "attracting, cultivating and retaining". How to break the game?

In recent years, Yongzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have issued "Implementation Opinions on Deepening the Reform of the System and Mechanism of Talent Development" and "Article 36" of the New Deal for Talents, etc., in order to attract and retain talents for the city’s education system.

Since 2018, the city has introduced more than 800 high-quality education talents. In 2023, the city introduced 175 outstanding educational talents. Up to now, the number of primary and secondary school teachers in the city has increased by more than 20% year-on-year, the number of deputy senior judges has nearly doubled year-on-year, and the actual number of deputy senior judges has increased by 192% year-on-year, effectively stimulating the enthusiasm of teachers.

To build a high-quality and professional team of high school teachers is inseparable from the guidance of famous teachers. Yongzhou has written the construction of "famous teacher project" into the government work report for three consecutive years, taking it as an important starting point for strengthening the city through education.

In recent years, Yongzhou organized and selected 40 "Yongzhou Chief Teachers", built 100 county-level famous teacher studios, and promoted the professional growth of more than 5,000 young and middle-aged outstanding backbone teachers.

At this year’s Teachers’ Day Celebration Conference in Yongzhou, the main leaders of Yongzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government awarded licenses to 20 newly established municipal famous teacher studios. "These famous teacher studios are like entrepreneurial teams, and all teachers, young and old, are full of passion." Wen Jiayou, a researcher at Yongzhou Academy of Educational Sciences, said.

The introduction of talents, the project of famous teachers, and the promotion of teachers’ abilities … Yongzhou is taking a series of reform measures to solidly promote the construction of "three teams" of principals, class teachers and teachers, constantly stimulate the initiative and creativity of teachers, and consolidate the foundation for the high-quality development of Yongzhou education.
