Appreciate the masterpiece of the screen and enjoy the life of light and shadow. Next, let’s look at the most beautiful performances that belong to the screen in 2021!


The protagonist of the most beautiful screen performance in 2021


Chinese mother on the screen


A Hi, Mom in early 2021 made countless audiences cry. Li Huanying, a young man played by Zhang Xiaofei in the film, shows the gentlest appearance of a mother. She doesn’t want her child to have much ambition, but only wants her to be healthy and happy. And her warm and powerful performance also aroused the audience’s emotional resonance with her mother.



Unlike the Buddhist mothers in Hi, Mom, Ji Peizhen, played by Xu Fan in Everything About My Mom, is a worried and nagging mother. Xu Fan played the role of Qian Qian’s mother in our life. They look forward to their children’s success and their daughters’ success, and spare no effort to take care of a large family. They are not perfect, but their daily bickering also carries trivial care and expectation.



Mother not only has a gentle and considerate side, but also has the courage to be a mother. Zhang Ziyi plays such a mother in the poem of Me and My Father. The vast Gobi, shabby room, she is a great woman who dedicated herself to the national defense science and technology of the motherland; Giving up her family for everyone, she set an example for her children with her words and deeds. Zhang Ziyi wrote poems attentively, and portrayed a strong, forbearing and great mother with exquisite acting skills.



The unsung hero marching in the dark 


Every step from darkness to light has condensed the blood and tears of countless heroes. The film "Above the Cliff" created a group of unsung heroes in the hidden front, and the excellent interpretation of the actors made the image of this group of underground workers with heavy burdens more vivid and three-dimensional. Zhang Xianchen, played by Zhang Yi, is dead in the face of his belief in blazing with anger and torture, which makes people feel that the character’s inner belief in winning will never go out.



Yu Hewei’s undercover Zhou Yi is in an enemy camp, and Yu Hewei’s skillful and steady performance fully shows that Zhou Yi is cautious when dealing with the enemy, and he is sad when witnessing the sacrifice of his comrades.



 As a senior female spy, Wang Yu, played by Amanda, has to face multiple scenes and identities. Whether it’s an underground worker’s capable determination or a mother’s eager desire for a child, Amanda has performed very well in every aspect of Wang Yu. It is even more infectious to learn that a silent crying scene when a partner dies.



The power of persistence  


One thing, a lifetime. In the movie "The Guardian of the Island", Wang Jicai, a "model of the people", and Do not forget your initiative mind insisted on guarding the island for more than 30 years, and Liu Ye performed the authentic side of this "guardian forgotten by time".



 You keep the island, I’ll keep you. Wang Shihua, played by Gong Zhe, has also moved countless audiences. Gong Zhe showed the image of a wife who gave up her family for everyone with her simple and sincere performance.


Green leaves of the most beautiful screen performance in 2021, click the link to watch the video.

Move people with emotion and enter the play with eyes.  


Mom is the one who says she hates her children, but she is always proud of her children. In the movie Hi, Mom, Liu Jia plays the middle-aged Li Huanying, which explains the maturity of middle-aged women. With a few eyes and lines, it attracts people’s empathy, as if seeing their own mother.



In the movie My Sister, Zhu Yuanyuan plays the aunt, who is not only the "elder sister" of the previous generation, but also the aunt of the stubborn elder sister of the new generation. In a patriarchal family, "eldest sister is like a mother" has become her lifelong shackles. Zhu Yuanyuan performed the heart-wrenching experience of a tough woman who was swallowed up by life, and at the same time showed her love for her niece incisively and vividly.



A dining table, five worlds, everyone hides an unknown secret. In the suspense movie "Secret Visitor", Zifeng Zhang plays the indifferent and mysterious sister Wang Chutong, whose eyes are indistinguishable from good and evil, which makes people shudder instantly.



True feelings, real feelings, interpretation of unknown heroes  


A little confused, with a sense of joy, Hu Jun plays the older and more experienced fighter "Lei Gong" in The Battle at Lake Changjin. Hu Jun, whose image as a tough guy is deeply rooted in people’s hearts, achieved a breakthrough this time. The first half was silly and cute, and contributed a lot of jokes. The final sacrifice was extremely tragic and contributed a lot of tears.



He is an unsung hero in the city. Fan Wei created an undercover "Lao Wang" who is good at changing his face in "Railway Hero", which makes people shine at the moment. The modesty and hypocrisy in the face of the enemy, the deliberate disguise in the face of comrades-in-arms, and the love in the face of small stones are all accurately and hierarchically portrayed by Fan Wei.



True and delicate, shaping the colorful villain  


As the villain of Above the Cliff, Yu Ailei plays the spy Jin Zhide, but his performance is very bright. He secretly observed Zhou Yi, but he was confused by Zhou Yi in a few words. The expression gradually changed from relaxed to frightened and uneasy, and the facial expression changes from sunny to cloudy and from cloudy to sunny were well interpreted by Yu Ailei.



He is the head of a county and knows the way of officialdom. Zhang Songwen’s performance once again shines with his two faces with different light and shade, and his invisible personality. In the face of his younger brother, the leader of the evil forces, he grabbed his brother by the neck, seemingly awe-inspiring, but in fact he was afraid of being implicated. Good or bad is just a thought. In an inner confession scene after the crime was revealed, Zhang Songwen showed the true mentality of how a parent who once wanted to be a "Wen Tianxiang" became an umbrella for evil forces step by step.



Red flowers should also be lined with green leaves. The role of "green leaves" in these films not only adds color to the protagonist, but also adds color to the film. No matter how big or small the role is, as long as you interpret it with your heart, you can leave your own brilliance on the screen.


See 2024 | Peng Jianzhen, President of China Chain Store & Franchise Association: Strengthen scientific decision-making and the construction of modern enterprise system.

[Editor’s note] Insight into the trend and look forward to the future. At the beginning of the new year in 2024, Xinhuanet planned the all-media column of "Seeing 2024", inviting experts, scholars and entrepreneurs to put new hotspots and new trends in the pulse industry, and to enlighten intelligent thinking and reflect industrial changes with professional insight to help high-quality economic and social development.

Xinhuanet Beijing, February 5 (Ren Yuxi) Chain operation is a highly large-scale business model. Chain enterprises and brands can carry out specialized division of labor under the overall planning, and implement centralized management on the basis of division of labor, thus improving the overall operational efficiency and realizing economies of scale.

Throughout the past development process, the chain operation industry in China has shown remarkable development potential and resilience in different formats. Recently, Peng Jianzhen, President of China Chain Store & Franchise Association, made a guest visit to "See 2024" on Xinhuanet, and made an in-depth analysis and prediction on the development of chain store business in China.

Q: With the development of economy, the chain operation industry in China has experienced a process of growing from scratch, from small to large. Looking back on the data in 2023, what is the performance of chain operation in China?

Peng Jianzhen:Judging from the latest data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, the overall consumer market is improving. Judging from the development of various formats in the chain industry, different formats have different performances. In 2023, the department store industry ushered in a recovery growth, with an increase of 8.8%; The supermarket industry decreased by 0.4%; Convenience stores, specialty store and specialty stores increased by 7.5%, 4.9% and 14.5% respectively. Generally speaking, the chain operation market is recovering, and different formats have different performances.

At the same time, some new features have appeared in the whole market. Before 2020, the consumer goods industry showed a trend of consumption upgrading. The trend of consumption classification after 2020 is obvious. In the past few years, almost all enterprises that have more accurate positioning of target consumers have achieved outstanding business performance.

Q: People’s demand for fast and convenient consumption methods is increasing, which provides opportunities for the development of chain enterprises. Based on the performance in 2023, please predict the development of chain operation in China in 2024.

Peng Jianzhen:In 2024, the general trend of consumption classification will continue. At the same time, there are new opportunities in the retail market. Take instant retailing as an example. Instant retailing is the cooperation between e-commerce platform and offline entities. In the past two years, instant retailing has developed rapidly. When consumers place an order on the online platform of instant retail, they can get the goods in about 30 minutes at the earliest. Behind the birth of this format is the change in people’s consumption patterns.

In the past few years, instant retailing has grown at a rate of more than 50% every year. Now the market scale has reached about 800 billion yuan, and will soon reach the trillion level.

With the change of people’s consumption lifestyle, new formats will have great opportunities for development. In addition, in addition to material consumption, spiritual consumption in the future is also the main point to pay attention to, such as concerts, cultural performances, sports leagues and so on. There is still a lot of room for excavation in this area.

Q: 2024 is full of opportunities and challenges for chain enterprises and brands. What should we do in 2024? Please give some development suggestions to the enterprise from a professional perspective.

Peng Jianzhen:In 2023, overall, regional retail enterprises performed better than national enterprises, and FMCG brands performed slightly better than retail terminal channel enterprises. Based on the existing trends, we also give some suggestions for the development of enterprises in 2024.

Twenty years ago, most enterprises would focus on expansion. In the past two years, the association has observed that more and more enterprises have gradually shifted their focus to internal cultivation. Take Shangchao as an example. When Shangchao surpasses, it will focus on staking and occupying the market. But now we will pay great attention to the construction of commodity power. Department stores and shopping centers are no exception. In the past, the focus was on attracting investment and introducing good brands, but since last year, special attention has been paid to the in-depth operation with brands and how to serve the consumer groups well. In addition, the deep cooperation between retailers and consumer goods enterprises is also strengthening. Through customized brands and own brands, they can jointly improve their operational capabilities and better serve the target consumers. It is suggested that enterprises can follow up from these aspects.

From the perspective of industry observers, when enterprises develop rapidly, decision-making is relatively simple. Because as long as the performance increases, many problems can be covered up. But now enterprises have gradually realized this and paid more and more attention to scientific decision-making. The so-called scientific decision-making is the basis of making decisions with numbers, and reducing costs and increasing efficiency through digital means. In this respect, the power invested by enterprises is gradually increasing. It is suggested that enterprises can learn from the cases of excellent enterprises, and help enterprises to make judgments through scientific decision-making, so that every step can be practical.

Q: The development of the whole chain operation industry is inseparable from the joint efforts of the government, associations and enterprises. What are the key work directions of China Chain Store & Franchise Association in 2024, and what benefits will these work bring to the industry?

Peng Jianzhen:China Chain Store has made a plan for the work in 2024, specifically in the following aspects.

First, focus on promoting the ecological cooperation between retailers and brands, retailers and consumer goods enterprises. Retailers and consumer goods enterprises are not only buying and selling, but more importantly, ecological cooperation. This cooperative relationship needs to create value for consumers by studying consumers and building commodity power. The association will then advocate enterprises to do this work.

Second, pay attention to the construction of commercial civilization. In the chain operation format, most enterprises that have done well have established modern enterprise systems. Enterprise internal governance is relatively transparent, in line with the modern enterprise system. In the past, China retail enterprises paid more attention to "home" culture, loyalty and winning the battle, which was very important. At the same time, it is essential to improve the modern enterprise system, which can help enterprises to make a qualitative leap. The association hopes that the construction of commercial civilization will bring new development impetus to chain enterprises.

Third, strengthen international exchanges. For domestic enterprises, going to sea is a great opportunity. Many tea and catering enterprises in China have developed well in Southeast Asia, Europe and America, and achieved good results overseas. In particular, China has been at the forefront in the exploration of digitalization in the past few years, and the international market has recognized the digital application of retail business scenes in China. On the one hand, the association will help enterprises connect with overseas resources and encourage them to find more growth in the international market; On the other hand, it is to promote international cooperation, because China retail enterprises have explored more online and offline business models, and many foreign enterprises have come to China to study and study. In addition to helping enterprises learn better overseas experience, the association will also introduce China’s excellent business model to overseas counterparts.

Fourth, ESG construction will be taken to a new level. ESG is a key indicator of enterprise development. Many enterprises simply interpret ESG as corporate social responsibility. In fact, ESG’s scoring system reflects whether the whole enterprise can develop sustainably in the long run. At the same time, if ESG scores high, it will also get the attention of many investment institutions. The association will promote the industry to pay attention to ESG together and improve the overall ESG level.

Q: The retail industry in China has developed rapidly in recent 30 years. Influenced by social environment, culture and history, China’s retail industry presents different characteristics in the world retail industry, and its development situation also shows obvious differences. Please talk about the characteristics of the development of China’s retail industry and make suggestions for the future development of China’s retail industry.

Peng Jianzhen:Generally speaking, the current situation of China’s retail industry is similar to that of the United States at a certain stage in its history. From 1945 to 1979, the economy of the United States grew rapidly, from about $100 billion to $2.6 trillion. During this period, American business consumption showed an overall upgrading trend, and China was similar to it before 2019. Then, from 1980 to 2010, there was a consumption classification in the American market. For example, supermarkets such as Costco appeared during this period, and many boutique supermarkets and organic supermarkets were gradually born. This process also appeared in China at this stage.

The overall trend is similar, but the difference is that the United States has a trend of consumption classification since the 1980 s. At the same time of consumption classification, enterprises have achieved differentiated development and provided targeted services according to different target customers. Enterprises have a very obvious "label" in consumers’ minds, which is based on the establishment of consumers’ minds. However, around 2012, China’s retail industry encountered the rapid rise of e-commerce before it had time to complete the expansion from scale to differentiation, which disrupted the development process of offline retail industry. The first challenge facing Shangchao is the decline in passenger flow. Offline enterprises are beginning to do omni-channel, hoping to open up online and offline through online business and retain passenger flow. But the reality is that offline customers are still on a downward trend, because it is difficult for offline enterprises to get through online and offline; Therefore, before and after 2016, enterprises began to try to digitize, and only after the underlying digital foundation was completed can they hope to get through online and offline business. Generally speaking, from 2012 to 2020, China’s retail industry has invested in omni-channel and digitalization. During this period, the commodity power of enterprises has not been well improved, the differentiation of enterprises has not been formed, and the positioning and image in the eyes of consumers are not prominent. That is to say, the basic capacity building of enterprises is not enough, and they have not established their own "labels" in the eyes of consumers and failed to establish their own moat.

Based on this situation, it is suggested that enterprises "make up lessons" from the following three aspects. First, strengthen scientific decision-making, only scientific decision-making can enable enterprises to achieve scientific operation on a certain scale; Second, in order to have a deeper insight into consumers, we must find and focus on target consumers and clarify the positioning of enterprises; Third, improve the modern enterprise system. In the past, enterprises usually only used the "home" culture to gather strength. On this basis, a perfect modern enterprise system can make enterprises develop sustainably in the long run. In the future, from these three aspects, the retail enterprises in China will have a strong vitality in generate.

The weather is dry, so the public should pay attention to hydrating and moisturizing. From the 21st, due to the influence of cold air, the northeast of Inner Mongolia, the northeast, the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and other places will once again usher in the process of precipitation weather. At present, the forecasting time is far away, so we need to pay attention to it.

Cherry is a large cherry? How to choose high-quality cherries?

  During the Spring Festival, people like to take some fruits with them when visiting relatives and friends. Cherry with sweet and sour taste is included in many people’s shopping list. Recently, the topic about "Is cherries a large cherry?" triggered a heated discussion among netizens. So, is the cherry a large cherry? How to choose high-quality cherries?

  "Cherry and cherry are brothers of different species. They all belong to the genus Sakura of Rosaceae, but the varieties are different, similar to the relationship between kiwifruit and kiwifruit. " College of biological sciences and biotechnology, Ph.D., and Li Jun, a senior engineer of Beijing Institute of Landscaping Science, said that cherries are generally larger, while cherries are usually smaller.

  "In addition to the size, there are still some differences between cherries and cherries that belong to the cherry’ family’." Li Jun said.

  One is different colors. Cherry peel is dark in color and generally dark red. The skin of domestic cherry is light in color, usually reddish.

  Second, the taste is different. Cherry is dense, sweet and sweeter than cherry. Cherry, on the other hand, tastes hard, sweet and sour, and has obvious fruity acidity.

  Third, the origin is different. Cherry is an imported fruit, mainly produced in Chile and other countries. Long-distance transportation and long-term storage have caused the freshness and quality of cherries to decline to some extent. Cherry is a native fruit in China, with shorter transportation time and distance, which is more secure in freshness.

  There is a view on the Internet that cherries are out-of-season fruits, and eating them is not healthy. "The cherries on the market now are not anti-season fruits." Li Jun explained that cherries are mostly imported from countries in the southern hemisphere such as Chile, and the seasons in the southern hemisphere are just the opposite of those in China. Cherry began to ripen around November, that is, the local summer.

  Li Jun suggested that when consumers buy cherries, they should choose those that are fresh, with intact skin, full and stiff, and with fruit stalks. "Pay special attention to the’ J’ logo on the fruit packaging. This is a commonly used grading unit in the southern hemisphere. The more’ j’, the bigger the cherries are. Before eating, it is recommended to soak cherries in light salt water for 10 to 15 minutes, and then rinse them with running water. " He said. (Reporter)

Building and perfecting the national unified market and speeding up the construction of a new development pattern

  [In-depth study, publicity and implementation of the spirit of the 20th Party Congress]

  Author: Wang Yonggui Shi Mengting (special researcher of Zhejiang Supreme Leader New Era Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought Research Center, president of Zhejiang Gongshang University, special researcher of capital university of economics and business Megacity Economic and Social Development Research Institute).

  The Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Accelerating the Construction of a National Unified Market emphasizes that "building a national unified market is the basic support and internal requirement for building a new development pattern". Report to the 20th CPC National Congress of the Communist Party of China clearly put forward that "we should build a unified national market, deepen the marketization reform of factors, and build a high-standard market system". Speeding up the construction of a unified national market from a global and strategic perspective and giving full play to the advantages of China’s ultra-large-scale market are the only way to promote China’s market from large to strong and achieve high-quality economic development, which is essential to build a new development pattern with domestic large-scale circulation as the main body and domestic and international double-cycle mutual promotion. At present, to build and improve the national unified market and accelerate the construction of a new development pattern, we need to continue to focus on unblocking the domestic circulation, promoting the construction of a modern industrial system, fully releasing the potential of domestic demand, continuously optimizing the business environment and promoting high-level opening up.

  Work together to build an efficient and standardized unified big market and better promote the domestic big cycle.

  The word "national" in the national unified market indicates the coverage, that is, to jointly build a unified market with high efficiency, standardization and fair competition across the country, regardless of regions and industries. Only in this way can we promote the rational flow and efficient agglomeration of capital, resources, commodities, services, data and other resource elements throughout the country, truly form a unified national market, improve the degree of market integration, thus unblocking the domestic circulation and comprehensively promoting the coordinated development of urban and rural areas and regions. All regions should identify their own positioning and comparative advantages in the new development pattern, organically link the construction of the new development pattern with the implementation of major regional strategies, regional coordinated development strategies, main functional area strategies, and the construction of free trade pilot zones, further break down local protectionism and market segmentation barriers, promote a better combination of effective markets and promising governments, give full play to the decisive role of the market in resource allocation, give full play to the role of the government, jointly build and improve the national unified big market, and highlight all regions and industries in actively participating in the domestic and international double cycle.

  To promote the construction of a unified big market in an orderly manner, the key points of this work mainly include: systematically sorting out and abolishing policies and measures that hinder the free flow of factors, enhancing the initiative and enthusiasm of enterprises in cross-regional mergers, strengthening the ties between regions, giving full play to the comparative advantages of regions, encouraging cooperation and complementarity to achieve common development; Establish an institutional mechanism for multi-sector joint supervision, use digital tools such as artificial intelligence to empower the government to intelligently supervise, break through time and space constraints, and achieve cross-regional and cross-sectoral business collaboration; We will comprehensively promote rural revitalization, smooth the economic cycle between urban and rural areas, promote the free flow of various market factors between urban and rural areas, promote the development of urban-rural integration and regional integration, narrow the income gap between regions, and comprehensively promote the construction of a unified national market.

  Accelerate the construction of a modern industrial system and continuously improve the quality and level of the supply system.

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized that the new development pattern is based on the modern industrial system, and the smooth economic cycle requires orderly links and efficient and smooth industries. China has a very complete industrial system, with a large scale and a large number of manufacturing enterprises and a large base of potential consumer groups. However, due to the structural imbalance between supply and demand, the ultra-large-scale market demand cannot be completely transformed into effective demand. On the whole, the industrial system faces the coexistence of insufficient effective supply and excessive ineffective supply, which cannot fully release the huge potential consumer market space. The proportion of low-end supply is large, but the high-end supply is insufficient, and the added value of products is relatively low. The position of domestic enterprises in the global industrial chain supply chain value chain needs to be further improved; The independent innovation ability of high-end manufacturing industry is insufficient, and the overall competitiveness of international trade is still not strong enough. To this end, we must take innovation as the first driving force to lead high-quality development, build a self-controllable, safe, reliable and competitive modern industrial system, continuously improve the quality and level of the supply system by accelerating the construction of a modern industrial system, and further promote the market-oriented reform of factors on the basis of meeting the needs of the domestic super-large-scale market, which is conducive to promoting the formation and improvement of a unified national market.

  To speed up the construction of a modern industrial system and constantly improve the unified national market, we should first emphasize the basic role of innovation, realize innovation spillover through efficient and coordinated allocation of high-end elements such as technology, finance, data and human resources, enhance the innovation ability of enterprises in all directions, and continuously promote China’s manufacturing industry to steadily climb to the middle and upper reaches of the value chain; Empower traditional industries to realize modernization with technologies such as digitalization, networking and intelligence, and seize the opportunity of the new round of scientific and technological revolution to further develop new industries, new formats and new models; Continue to create a symbiotic, co-creation, sharing, win-win, healthy and safe digital ecology, make the digital economy stronger and better, and build an internationally competitive digital economy industrial cluster; Cultivate and expand strategic emerging industries, accelerate the research and development and application promotion of cutting-edge technologies such as new energy, artificial intelligence, bio-manufacturing, green and low carbon, and quantum computing, and strive to achieve high-level scientific and technological self-reliance; Support the development of specialized and new enterprises, build a number of world-class enterprises, continuously promote the development of advanced manufacturing and strategic emerging industries, and create a new engine for high-quality economic development.

  Expand domestic demand and promote consumption, and fully release the endogenous power of the domestic cycle.

  Socialized reproduction includes four links: production, distribution, exchange and consumption. Among them, consumption is the final link, the key link to satisfy people’s yearning for a better life, and the main engine of China’s future economic growth. Only by comprehensively promoting the expansion and upgrading of the consumer market can the endogenous power of the domestic big cycle be fully released and further promote the construction of a unified national market. At present, China’s economy continues to improve steadily, but it still faces some challenges in restoring and expanding domestic demand. From the supply side, the innovation ability can not fully meet the needs of high-quality development, the supply quantity, quality and supply capacity need to be further improved, and the effective supply of high-end products and services is insufficient, which can not effectively meet the development, enjoyment and upgrading needs of consumers. From the demand side, China has become the second largest economy in the world, with huge market development space, but there is still great consumption potential that has not been fully tapped. It is necessary to further improve the education, medical care and social security systems to improve the consumption tendency of residents.

  By expanding domestic demand, we can fully release the endogenous power of the domestic macro-cycle and improve the unified national market. We must organically combine the strategy of expanding domestic demand with deepening the structural reform on the supply side to promote a higher level of matching between supply and demand. Therefore, we should attach importance to promoting product and service innovation with scientific and technological innovation, actively cultivate digital consumption, green consumption, experience consumption and healthy consumption, create new consumption growth poles, and meet the needs of consumers for personalization, quality, diversification and upgrading; Increase the supply of high-quality products and support the development of emerging consumption such as new energy vehicles, smart wear and smart home appliances; Taking improving people’s well-being as the starting point and the end result, we will increase residents’ income through multiple channels, improve the convenience and inclusiveness of family finance, and boost residents’ spending power and confidence.

  Continuously optimize the business environment and promote fair competition in the market.

  The release of "Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Accelerating the Construction of a Unified National Market" emphasizes the improvement of a high-level socialist market economic system to further stimulate the vitality of various business entities. Only by creating a stable, fair, transparent and predictable business environment for all kinds of business entities to invest and start businesses can we promote fair competition in the market, maintain market competition order and stimulate the vitality of market entities. At present, in the process of perfecting the unified national market and building a new development pattern, there are still some problems, such as inadequate implementation of preferential policies for enterprises, difficult and expensive financing for market players, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, and insufficient refinement of the right attribute, protection scope and accountability mechanism of new intellectual property rights under the network environment. We must take many measures to continuously optimize the business conditions of market players and strive to create a market-oriented, rule-of-law and international business environment.

  To create a good business environment, it is necessary to constantly improve the intellectual property protection system, implement the policy of benefiting enterprises involved, make good use of the supporting tools of small and micro loans to reduce the production and operation costs of enterprises; Do a good job in addition and subtraction of administrative examination and approval items, optimize services for addition and subtraction of examination and approval items, and continuously improve the ability and level of "Internet+government services" of various government departments; Build a pro-Qing political and business relationship, use a digital application platform, build an application scenario of administrative monopoly monitoring, and help build a unified national market.

  Promote a high level of opening to the outside world and realize the mutual promotion of domestic and international double circulation.

  The national unified market is a fully open market, and it pursues a high level of opening to the outside world. This means that in the process of building the national unified market, it is necessary to steadily promote the institutional opening of rules, regulations, management and standards, enhance China’s right to speak in the international cycle, and provide assistance to solve the stuck points, blocked points and difficult problems in the domestic cycle through high-level participation in the international cycle.

  To accelerate the construction of a unified national market and promote high-level opening-up from an overall and strategic perspective, we must expand all-round open cooperation with other countries and inject new development momentum into the global economy. Practice the concept of openness and tolerance, absorb and learn from foreign advanced manufacturing experience, and enhance China’s high-level scientific and technological self-reliance and self-improvement; In the process of creating a market-oriented, rule-based and international first-class business environment, we will strive to promote the effective connection between domestic rules and international rules and attract more high-quality foreign investment; Continuously expand the network of high-standard free trade zones facing the world, and enhance the linkage effect of domestic and international markets and resources; Actively participate in the formulation of international rules, enhance the right to speak internationally, and contribute China wisdom to the development of the world economy.

Extinct population? Russian media: The US Department of Defense is the biggest financier of "gene drive"

  Cctv newsThe rapid development of gene technology in recent years has made it possible to cure many diseases. Recently, however, the Russian media "Russia Today" TV station revealed that a non-governmental environmental group named ETC found that the US Department of Defense turned out to be the biggest financier behind the "gene-driven" technology. So, what is "gene-driven" technology? Why does the US military spend huge sums of money to study this project?

  "Gene-driven" Technology of Extinctive Population

  With the help of gene editing technology called "gene scissors", scientists developed "gene-driven" technology. To put it simply, scientists genetically modify the genes of a species through "gene scissors" and then inherit this particular gene in this species population in a biased way.

  This technology can not only make this species retain only the genes we think are "good", but also be used for "population extinction". For example, a "gene-driven" technology causes a population to breed only male offspring, so the population will soon become extinct because there is no female spouse. This technology can be used to eliminate mosquitoes that spread malaria and Zika virus.

  The military finances technology or makes biological weapons.

  However, according to Russian media reports, ETC, a non-governmental environmental group, found that the Advanced Research Projects Agency of the US Department of Defense funded gene-driven technology for at least $100 million.

 

  Because scientists are controversial about this technology, the disclosure of military background makes many people worry that "gene-driven" technology may be used to make biological weapons.

It is not difficult for young directors to "find money" | Dialogue with famous director JASON ZHANG

Dull | Wen Zhouchu, Yi Qing | Editor

"Today’s young directors are actually quite happy, much happier than we were then. Every year, there are a lot of venture capital projects all over the country, and all kinds of feature films and short films are exhibited. This IM Cross-Strait Youth Film Festival has given a total of 3 million bonuses. Once winning the prize, there will be funds to continue shooting short films or start a feature film shooting plan.In a sense, I think young creators are very lucky."

 

At the second IM Cross-Strait Youth Film Festival,Entertainment thorn (id: yuci-er)I met the director JASON ZHANG.

 

JASON ZHANG is the representative figure of "the sixth generation director" of China films. In 1997, he started his career as a director with his first film "spicy love soup", and won the Best Director Debut Award in the 18th China Golden Rooster Award and the Best Director Award in the 5th Beijing University Student Film Festival.

 

Since then, his films "Bathing", "Sunflowers" and "Leaves Back to Roots" have also won awards at the San Sebastian International Film Festival and the Berlin International Film Festival.In 2017, the drama "Gang Rinpozzi" directed by JASON ZHANG was released, which won the Best Film Award at the 2nd Italian China Film Festival and won a "phenomenal" box office of 100 million yuan.

In 1992, after graduating from the Central Academy of Drama, JASON ZHANG was assigned to the Beijing Film Studio, he told me.Entertainment thorn (id: yici-er),"At that time, it was very difficult for you to make a film in the system of the film factory. Without a record of about ten years and the qualifications of an assistant director, it is impossible to be a director."

 

Fortunately, JASON ZHANG got to know the producers who came back from the United States at the initial stage, and also found investment and started his own creation. But he bluntly said that this opportunity was very rare at that time.

 

In JASON ZHANG’s view,"Finding money" is not very difficult for young directors nowadays.Many companies are paying attention to the creation of young directors. Once the film enters venture capital, it will be signed away by the company and the funds will be implemented quickly.

 

JASON ZHANG told.Entertainment thorn (ID:yuci-er)"A few years ago, some of the works that started in venture capital had already been made, and the cinemas were all on. There are so many opportunities that talented creators will not be buried. "

 

How does the director adapt to the industrial system? How to "handle" the distance from the market? How can I make a qualified work? In andEntertainment thorn (id: yuci-er)In the dialogue, JASON ZHANG talked about the plight of young directors facing the market.In his view, the most important thing for a young director is not to find money and resources, but to shoot his first work well.

 

Art and market can’t have both.

 

JASON ZHANG’s point of view is very clear. You can’t have everything in a movie. Art and business have different demands for movies.

 

As a director, you must first make clear what you want to shoot in this film.If you want to make a commercial film, then focus on the business. "Keep your mind flat and stop thinking about the film festival every day. These have nothing to do with you."In JASON ZHANG’s view, commercial films are not easy to shoot. "It doesn’t mean that you can get a good box office by shooting commercial films, and commercial films also have many failures."

 

If you look for literary films, you may face losses in business. But as long as you go far enough in art, it will bring another kind of harvest, "winning prizes or word of mouth, these things are natural. The key is how far you can go in art. "

 

No director doesn’t want the box office word-of-mouth award to have a bumper harvest, but it is not easy to "eat all three". JASON ZHANG thinks that only two or three so-called dark horse movies can achieve a double harvest in box office and word of mouth in a year, and most movies can’t achieve this balance.

 

At the beginning of the release of "Gang Rinpoche" in 2017, JASON ZHANG thought that it would be good if the box office only exceeded 10 million. Eleven actors in the film are ordinary villagers from Pula village, Tibet. The whole film uses documentary to restore the scene of Tibetan pilgrimage. In his eyes, non-professional actors and documentary expressions are not very "audience-friendly" types.

In the end, the box office of Gang Rinpoche exceeded 100 million. "The announcement, or any other reason, made the audience in other circles besides the art audience pay attention to the film, and the word of mouth was also very good, so it created a box office miracle in the literary film. But there is no way to copy this, it is very luck. " JASON ZHANG said bluntly.

More often, literary films are faced with the dilemma of "not being a box office".JASON ZHANG revealed that for most literary films, 10 million box office is a very important threshold. If the box office can reach 30 million, it will be considered as "the box office ceiling".

 

According to Yuemu’s statistics, among the 44 literary films released in 2019, only 14 films earned more than 10 million at the box office, and 13 films earned less than 1 million at the box office.

Xiaowei, released in early 2021, won three nominations and two awards from four film festivals, including the 2nd Pingyao International Film Festival and the 44th Hong Kong International Film Festival, with a box office of only 1.452 million. With the double blessing of director Lou Ye and actor Gong Li, the box office of "Lanxin Grand Theatre" released in October has not reached 22 million, which can be seen from the box office of literary films.

 

Literary films with poor box office performance will naturally not be favored by cinemas. In order to solve the problem of fewer times and poor performances of literary films, producer Fang Li once knelt down and begged for arranging films, and director Pema Tseden also called for more arranging films in Weibo, hoping to "give every film a fair chance".

 

Although there will be concerns about film arrangement, JASON ZHANG is very open-minded. "When a film is put into the commercial market, it must conform to the laws of the commercial market.Whether or not to arrange films and how to arrange them are not only the business of the cinema manager, but the cinema is adjusted according to the preferences of the audience, and in fact the audience is voting."

 

As a director, JASON ZHANG feels that he can shoot anything. When his identity is transformed into a producer, his interest will not be limited to a certain type when evaluating the scripts of young directors."Whether it is a literary film or a commercial film, it actually has its own basic laws. Good things can be understood at a glance."

 

"The director doesn’t have to control the market trend."

 

"Many young directors have been very good in recent years, such as Gu Xiaogang, Bi Gan, Huo Meng and Wei Shujun." JASON ZHANG XiangEntertainment thorn (id: yuci-er)Say a few names.

 

In his view, the young director’s first film should shoot what he wants to shoot and try to express what he wants to express most. This is also the shooting direction of the young director’s first film, which is very encouraged by the industry.

 

Generally speaking, when making the first film, young directors will apply what they have accumulated and learned in the first twenty or thirty years of their lives. Most directors’ first works are often records and expressions of personal experiences and opinions.

 

But every director is different, so how to shoot the first film depends on the director himself. "You are like director Muye Wen. He can make a very mature commercial film in the first film." JASON ZHANG XiangEntertainment thorn (id: yuci-er)Give examples.

 

The first film directed by Muye Wen was Dying to Survive, which won the third place at the box office in 2018 with a box office of 3.1 billion yuan. It is the fifth film in the history of China movies with a box office exceeding 3 billion yuan, with a Douban score of 9.0. With this film, Muye Wen won six director awards.

 

On the one hand, it is the director’s personal choice, on the other hand, it is maturity. In JASON ZHANG’s view, maturity and vocational skills are very important.

After the director really enters the film industry system, he must have feelings, but he should also have professional skills as a director."A script is put in front of me. Can I be competent and can I shoot it?"Easier said than done, JASON ZHANG bluntly said, this is a problem that many young directors are facing now.

 

"Especially the second and third films, it is no longer a question of the director’s self-expression.If a director wants to enter the industrial system and get in touch with different contents, it depends on your professional skills at this time."

 

In 2015, director Bi Gan became famous in the director circle with his debut novel "Picnic by the Road", and the second film "The Last Night of the Earth" received an investment of 20 million (later increased to 50 million), and the filming process of this film truly reflected the confusion of inexperienced young directors facing the industrial system.

 

Producer Shan Zuolong wrote in the article "The Darkness of the Earth", "It cleared up in the afternoon, and the art scene didn’t meet the requirements in the end, but the coordinated boot time has arrived. Bi Gan, who is usually unwilling to compromise, tried to shoot hard, but in the end he couldn’t get past his own level, so we decided to stop.The direct economic loss of downtime for one day is hundreds of thousands, and two directors and producers with no industrial experience are instantly knocked down …"

 

The progress lingered, the actors’ schedules were exhausted, and the funds were constantly overspent. Under all kinds of problems, the film was difficult and dangerous to finish.

 

Although it is emphasized that the director should adapt to the industrial system, in JASON ZHANG’s view, the director only needs to consider how to finish the filming best, without grasping the "wind direction" of the market.

Modern society is originally an industrialized society with a very clear division of labor. If it is a purely commercial film, the preliminary work has been completed from screenwriter to producer to investor. In particular, many films have adopted the producer-centered system, and investors and producers control the business and market issues. The only thing the director wants to think about is how to shoot the film well.

 

However, if the director is more author-oriented, likes to create his own works and shoot the works he wants to shoot, which are more personalized, then this kind of film is doomed to have a far distance from commercial films.

 

JASON ZHANG is an author-oriented director. He prefers to find themes, write scripts and make films himself, he told me.Entertainment thorn (id: yuci-er)Basically, it is done in my framework, so it is relatively easy to control.

 

He didn’t think about the market when he filmed Gang Rinpoche, because it was just a story he wanted to tell from his heart.

 

"movies with only traffic are not lasting."

 

In JASON ZHANG’s view, no film can be finished easily, and any film can be called "time is tight and tasks are heavy", which requires a "complicated and painful" process.

 

Whether the film can be completed within a reasonable budget range is a very important indicator to test the director. "If it is overdue or overspent, it means that you are not a qualified director, or all the plans made in the early stage are unreasonable and out of your control."

 

When preparing for shooting, a really good director should foresee the overall shooting difficulty and shooting cycle of the film."In fact, it is necessary to make a reasonable plan in the early stage. As long as the plan is done, it can basically be completed step by step."

 

"The so-called tight budget means that the film that was originally filmed in 50 days must be finished within 30 days. This requirement is unreasonable." JASON ZHANG told.Entertainment thorn (id: yuci-er)In the face of this situation, the director must first try his best to fight with the producers or investors to explain the rationality of the film shooting cycle setting, and can’t promise what he can’t do. "You can’t finish shooting in 30 days, but you have to promise others to finish shooting. This is unreasonable."

 

On the other hand, JASON ZHANG thinks that the director can adjust the cycle appropriately. "If it can’t be finished in 50 days, can it be finished in 45 days and 42 days? The director should be in a reasonable framework of 42-45 days, which will save some costs and meet the basic artistic requirements." But he also stressed that artistic requirements are the most important."If it’s at the expense of the quality of the film, it’s meaningless. Why shoot it?"

Source: Douban

The producer of Gang Rinpoche successfully shared such a story in an interview with the film and television industry network. When Gang Rinpoche was finished, JASON ZHANG wanted to wait for a snowfall and get a more perfect picture, but he told JASON ZHANG that the budget was insufficient, and the remaining money was only enough for two days. Moreover, if it really snowed, it would be a huge expense to transfer the crew from the mountains to the mainland. After comprehensive consideration, JASON ZHANG abandoned the original plan.

 

In choosing actors, JASON ZHANG also holds the view that the quality of the film should not be lost."Choosing an actor is a concept. Choose the best and most suitable one, regardless of others. It has nothing to do with whether the actor has a name or not. If he is a good actor, there is nothing to do with traffic."

 

JASON ZHANG feels "indifferent" to those films that didn’t cost much time and money to shoot, but the actors gained a good profit by enabling streaming. In his view, everyone has their own understanding of movies, and the industry is mixed. How others operate is someone else’s business. He judged, "this kind of film will not last long, because it does not conform to the laws of the film market, and may occasionally make one or two movies, but this is not reproducible or sustainable."

 

As for his own film, JASON ZHANG toldEntertainment thorn (id: yici-er)I have never used a traffic actor before, and I have no idea about it.The key to choosing an actor lies in the actor’s "right way". We should not arrange it in the movie. We should consider whether the movie is finally presented on the screen of the cinema, whether the audience thinks the actor is suitable or not, and whether they believe his performance.

 

Aside from all other factors such as flow, funds and resources, the most important thing for young directors is to shoot according to their own understanding of the film. After all, no director will voluntarily make a bad film.

In the first quarter, the number of registered marriages in China decreased by 1.2%, and 514,000 couples were registered for divorce.

  In recent years, the number of married people in China has been decreasing, the average age of marriage has been increasing, and the number of single people has been expanding. In the first quarter of this year, what changes have taken place in the number of marriages and divorces in China?

  According to the latest statistics released by the Ministry of Civil Affairs in the first quarter, there were 2.107 million couples registered in the first quarter. Compared with 2.132 million pairs in the first quarter of 2021, it decreased by 25,000 pairs, down 1.2% year-on-year.

  This also continues the downward trend of the number of marriage registrations in China in recent years. The data shows that in 2021, China’s marriage registration data was 7.636 million pairs. This is the second time that the marriage registration data fell below 8 million pairs after falling below 10 million pairs in 2019 and 9 million pairs in 2020. The first financial reporter combed the data and found that the number of marriage registrations in 2021 hit a new low since 1986 (the website of the Ministry of Civil Affairs published data since 1986), which was only 56.6% of the peak in 2013.

  The continuous decline in the number of married people is related to the decrease in the total number of marriageable people. On the other hand, this is also related to the significant delay in the first marriage age of young people, especially the post-90s generation. China Census Yearbook -2020 recently released by the National Bureau of Statistics shows that,2020In 2008, the average age of first marriage in China was 28.67 years, which was 3.78 years higher than the average age of first marriage in 2010.

  Judging from the decline since 2016, in the first quarter of 2020, affected by epidemic factors, the data is not comparable, and the number of marriage registrations in the first quarter of other years decreased by more than 5% year-on-year. However, in the first quarter of this year, it only dropped slightly by 1.2% compared with the same period of last year, which also shows that,After years of rapid decline, the number of marriage registrations in China may have entered a relatively stable platform period, which will also have a significant impact on the birth population data in China in the future.

  Judging from the number of divorce registrations, there were 514,000 couples in the first quarter of this year, an increase of 218,000 couples over the first quarter of 2021. However, since the cooling-off period system for divorce began to be implemented in 2021, that is, within 30 days after the expiration of the cooling-off period for divorce, if both parties fail to jointly apply to the marriage registration office for a divorce certificate, the application for divorce registration will be deemed to have been withdrawn. The implementation of this system just started in the first quarter of last year, and there will be a delay effect on the whole, so the divorce registration data in the first quarter of 2021 is not comparable. Compared with 1.048 million couples in the first quarter of 2019, the number of divorce registrations in the first quarter of this year decreased by 51%.

  Registration data of marriage and divorce in the first quarter of China and other places (data source: Ministry of Civil Affairs)

  In terms of provinces, in the first quarter, there were 7 provinces in China with more than 100,000 couples registered for marriage, namely Sichuan, Guangdong, Henan, Anhui, Guizhou, Shandong and Jiangsu. Among them, Sichuan ranked first with 169,000 pairs, Guangdong ranked second with 155,000 pairs, and Henan ranked third with 154,000 pairs. In terms of divorce registration, Sichuan ranked first with 45,000 couples, and Guangdong and Henan both had 33,000 couples.

  Because marriage and divorce are mainly linked to the registered population. Therefore, including Sichuan, Henan, Guizhou and other provinces with large population outflows, the Spring Festival is a good opportunity to get married, and many people get married when they go home during the Spring Festival, so there are more people getting married in the first quarter.
