Thoughts on the New System of Big Data Analysis and Processing Technology

China Net/China Development Portal Network News After the information society enters the era of big data, people’s daily work and behavior, the working status of various online systems (such as information systems and industrial production lines), the signals of various sensors, and the records generated by navigation and positioning systems (global positioning system (GPS) and Beidou satellite navigation system, etc.) are routinely recorded into large-scale data as "experiences". Different from the scientific big data recorded and collected in the past to verify scientific theories and conjectures, recording these large-scale data did not have a clear scientific goal at first. However, they create other opportunities. People can find and summarize the laws through these data, and improve the efficiency of the system according to these laws, and can also predict and judge the future trend, and even help make more scientific and rational decisions. This process relies on big data analysis and processing technology. Therefore, big data analysis and processing technology aims to realize the value conversion from data to information, information to knowledge and knowledge to decision-making by using data science methods and widely recorded data.

At present, digital economy has become an important connotation of social economy, data has become a key factor of production, and big data processing technology has more and more profound influence on the running state of the world. With more and more data being recorded, collected and stored, how to deeply understand the distribution law of data and efficiently mine the value of data has become a key problem to be solved in the intelligent era. According to the report of International Data Corporation (IDC), the global data volume will be about 44 ZB in 2020 and 175 ZB in 2025. Only 2% of these data have been retained, and only 50% of them have been used. It can be seen that the linearly improved data processing ability cannot match the exponential growth of data scale, which makes the "scissors difference" between them bigger and bigger. At the same time, in the huge data space, the core data that is really valuable for a specific task is often extremely sparse or incomplete. The above phenomenon is the coexistence of data flooding and high-value data loss.

Intelligent applications represented by enterprise services on the Internet platform mostly adopt the big data analysis and processing technology supported by "big data+big model+big computing power", which mainly increases the data processing scale and improves the computing performance through system optimization, thus effectively solving some relatively low-order complexity prediction and judgment problems, such as image classification, voice recognition, structure prediction, and well-defined man-machine game. However, in an open and complex system environment, the data is dynamically generated and evolved, and there are huge uncertainties and variables that affect the running state of the system, which makes it difficult to directly model some high-order complex problems, or the approximate solution results are not credible, such as financial risk prediction, personalized intelligent diagnosis and treatment, and automatic driving in an open environment. In these high-order complex real systems, the data collection and distribution are often unstable and incomplete, which poses a new challenge to the big data analysis and processing mode that requires accurate discrimination.

At the same time, it is urgent to solve the problem of data and algorithm security. In the process of data circulation and sharing, data abuse and privacy leakage are faced. The data itself may also introduce the deviation existing in the real world, or the data is polluted under the counter attack, which makes the big data analysis model make biased and wrong decisions. At the moment when big data analysis and processing technology is gradually applied to key fields, how to make big data technology serve all fields in a safe and credible way is another difficult problem that big data development must face in the future.

This paper first reviews the development status of big data technology in recent 10 years, and in view of the challenges such as the coexistence of data flooding and data loss, the complex uncertainty of big data analysis and judgment, and the lack of data security, this paper puts forward a new paradigm of big data analysis and a new framework of safe and credible big data processing, and explores a new model of big data supporting intelligent applications. On this basis, a new generation of big data analysis and processing software stack is proposed, and the traction demand and major applications under the new technology system are prospected. 

Current situation of big data analysis and processing

In the past 10 years, with the strong promotion of all walks of life and the government in Industry-University-Research, the big data technology architecture, ecological environment and big data applications in all walks of life have developed rapidly.

Big data technology architecture

Massive data promotes the development of big data technology architecture. Big data management technology. Traditional relational database (SQL) mainly deals with less data and smaller scale of concurrent access, and there are a lot of operations to read and write hard disks and log records, so it is difficult to expand horizontally and cannot meet the data management requirements of Internet applications. In order to realize more data management, larger-scale concurrent access and more diverse data patterns, various non-relational databases (NoSQL) and distributed relational databases (NewSQL) which are reconstructed from the bottom are developing rapidly. Among them, NewSQL maintains the characteristics of traditional database supporting transaction processing, correctly executing four elements (ACID) and SQL standard query, and has the same excellent scalability as NoSQL. Big data processing technology. According to the different processing requirements, there are many different parallel computing models, including batch processing represented by Hadoop and Spark, high real-time stream processing represented by Spark Streaming, Flink and STORM, mixed stream and batch processing represented by Apache Beam and Lambda, and graph processing represented by GraphX and Apache Giraph. At the same time, the explosive demand of graph data and real-time data processing also promotes the integration of graph stream processing modes. In addition, computing hardware has gradually developed into a variety of computing units (such as CPU, GPU, NPU, etc.).The heterogeneous computing system and the multi-level integration of new hardware and software further improve the efficiency of big data processing. Big data analysis technology. The demand for analysis has gradually changed from small-scale, single-source and single-modal data statistical mining analysis to complex heterogeneous correlation of massive, multi-source and multi-modal data. The rapid development of deep learning technology has promoted the ability of big data analysis model. Neural network model returned to people’s field of vision after winning the first prize in the computer vision target recognition project ImageNet competition in 2012, and then a series of breakthrough works were born, including knowledge map providing knowledge service, generating real data against network synthesis, AlphaGo defeating human beings, GPT-3 pre-training language model and so on. In addition, the increasingly mature deep learning frameworks (such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, Flying Paddle, etc.) have also lowered the threshold for using deep learning to analyze big data.

Big data application

In recent years, the rapid development of big data analysis and processing technology has spawned many big data applications and empowered the intelligent development of a large number of industries. Some iconic applications have subverted traditional information technology capabilities in terms of modes and capabilities. Scientific discovery. Alpha-fold of DeepMind Company can predict the three-dimensional structure of protein based on protein’s gene sequence data, and then analyze the properties of protein, which helps biology to make great progress. Digital economy. The rise of e-commerce platform connects consumers and suppliers all over the world. Through the accurate analysis of transaction big data, it improves transaction efficiency, promotes the use of online payment and digital currency, and subverts the mode of social credit reporting; Financial risk judgment based on big data, microfinance and inclusive finance have also promoted the prosperity of the digital economy. Social security. China uses big data methods to assist social governance and decision-making in the fields of public health and finance; The United States tries to study the role of big data technology in solving social inequality and making urban policies. Life and health. Based on a large number of academic papers and clinical trial results, Britain has developed a variety of drugs to cure motor nerve recession, as well as digital contact tracking technology widely used by countries in recent two years, which has helped predict the spread speed and trend of the epidemic, and was listed in the "Top Ten Breakthrough Technologies in the World" in MIT Science and Technology Review in 2020 and 2021 respectively. The application of big data technology at home and abroad has changed the time-consuming and labor-intensive working methods in many traditional industries.It has achieved fruitful results in intelligence and efficiency.

Ecological construction of big data

The prosperity of big data analysis and processing is inseparable from the technological ecological development formed by large-scale data resource sharing, open technical architecture and open source algorithm model. Open source data. Open source data supports the construction of various big data technologies. For example, ImageNet, a visual data set released by Stanford University in 2009, Mimic-III, a large-scale medical information database released by Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2015, and Open Graph Benchmark, a graphic data set released by Stanford University in 2020, all greatly influenced the development of big data technology. Open source software. Apache Software Foundation has released a complete set of distributed storage and processing framework Map-Reduce, linear algebraic computing framework Mahout, machine learning library MLlib, etc. based on Hadoop ecology, aiming at enabling developers to quickly realize and apply big data analysis and processing algorithms. Since 2014, open source frameworks of deep neural networks, such as Caffe, Tensorflow and PyTorch, have provided important support for learning intelligent models for different tasks from big data. Open source model. Pre-training language models such as BERT and GPT3 based on large-scale data learning greatly reduce the application cost of related technologies and broaden the downstream application scenarios. In addition, how to ensure data security and personal privacy has recently been highly valued by governments and organizations all over the world. Therefore,Further exploration is still needed to balance technology development and data security, balance efficiency and risk, and establish a good big data ecological environment. 

New Generation Big Data Analysis and Processing Requirements

At present, for large-scale heterogeneous data sets, the mainstream big data analysis and processing method is to constantly try ultra-large-scale model parameters under the general model framework to achieve "end-to-end" analysis and inference. In this mode, the ability of big data analysis and processing depends largely on the support of computing platform and data resources. In practical application, these big data analysis and processing technologies are faced with challenges such as the coexistence of data flooding and missing in real scenes and key areas, the complex uncertainty of big data analysis and judgment, and the lack of data security supervision, which ultimately leads to problems such as poor interpretability of the analysis and processing process, weak model generalization ability, unclear causal laws, unreliable judgment results, and low data value utilization rate. In order to solve these challenging problems, we need to rethink the architecture and analysis mode of big data processing. The new generation of big data analysis and processing technology system should realize high-value knowledge generation, continuous online instantaneous decision-making, safe and credible reasoning and judgment, and be suitable for all kinds of online system action optimization in the future. This paper believes that the new generation of big data analysis and processing needs to meet at least the following four requirements.

Computational paradigm of human in the loop. In order to solve the high-order complex problems that the existing big data analysis and processing methods are difficult to overcome, it is necessary to introduce human intelligence and decision-making, and emphasize the organic interaction among people, machines and data. Different from the original human-computer interaction, that is, the machine follows human instructions or people listen to the output results of the machine, but pays more attention to the deep integration calculation of human brain and machine thinking.

Analysis mode of broad-spectrum correlation. In order to solve the problems of low value density, sparseness, inhomogeneity and lack of key information of big data, on the one hand, multiple heterogeneous signals left by various objects in the multi-domain and multi-dimensional data space of "man-machine-object" fusion are merged, and the signals are enhanced by correlation; On the other hand, we should integrate data and knowledge, build a lifelong learning, transportable and expandable knowledge system, and form a new analysis mode of deep integration of data-driven and knowledge-guided.

Online enhanced processing architecture. With the development of the Internet of Everything and the ubiquitous intelligence, collaborative computing technology and decoupled cloud-side processing framework of big data cloud have become hot spots. Based on the cloud computing environment, the mixed processing of streams and batches will further develop to the edge, and training, learning and reasoning and prediction will be integrated in the front-end equipment. Using the flexible scheduling ability of cloud edge resources, we can realize the pre-positioning of perception and cognition, and support instantaneous decision-making based on dynamic active data in online environment, thus forming a decentralized, heterogeneous and continuous online computing framework.

Secure and credible big data analysis. Security and trustworthiness are the basic requirements to meet the cognitive and decision-making security in key fields and scenarios. On the one hand, focus on the interpretability, credibility and fairness of big data analysis and processing results; On the other hand, it realizes the security protection and anomaly detection of data in collection, storage, use and circulation, and ensures the robustness and immunity of analysis and processing models and methods under strong confrontation attacks. 

A new generation of big data analysis and processing software stack

Under the goal of efficient big data value extraction, safe and credible analysis and processing, in view of the above four important requirements of big data analysis and processing, it is urgent to establish a new system of self-reliant big data analysis and processing technology in the future, and develop a new generation of big data analysis and processing software stack (Figure 1), which is studied from three aspects: the underlying data operating system, the general analysis and processing middleware, and the business-driven computing environment and framework.

Full-stack Big Data System Software

Develop and cover big data system software in many aspects, such as data access, streaming processing, graph calculation, training and promotion.

Data access. Aiming at the problems of various data sources, mixed data types and low storage efficiency of heterogeneous data in the current data collection process, this paper studies the data aggregation and fusion method of "man-machine-object" integration, supports the collection and fusion of structured and semi-structured data from various data sources, explores efficient storage algorithms, improves the utilization efficiency of the underlying storage space, supports the efficient compression and restoration of data, and realizes the efficient perception, collection, fusion and storage of multi-source heterogeneous data in the "man-machine-object" ternary data space.

In terms of streaming processing. There is a single calculation mode in the existing big data processing framework, that is, pursuing large quantities or strong timeliness alone. In order to solve this problem, we will study the streaming processing framework of multi-computing mode integration, support batch processing, streaming processing, graph processing and other computing modes, and realize data processing with low delay, large flow and strong timeliness to cope with the continuous access to high-speed data streams.

Computational aspects of associated data. The existing computing framework is difficult to adapt to the characteristics of strong data dependence, high random access and non-uniform power law distribution of graph structure data. In order to solve this problem, this paper studies the computing engine for graph structure and network big data, puts forward a new distributed computing framework and parallel computing mechanism for large-scale graph data, customizes the query language standards and specifications for large-scale graph data, and realizes the standardization of graph query and graph analysis languages.

Training reasoning. The existing cloud big data processing architecture is difficult to meet the real-time and computing resource requirements of large-scale services. In order to solve this problem, this paper studies the integrated framework of training and reasoning in cloud-side collaboration, which pushes the training and inference process in big data analysis and processing from the cloud to the edge, supports the integration of training and pushing, provides services and performs calculations at the edge of data generation, and realizes "cognitive pre-positioning" and lifelong learning to provide distributed, low-delay, continuous online intelligent services and instantaneous decision-making.

Reconstruct the process of big data analysis and processing

From preprocessing, data representation, semantic analysis and knowledge reasoning, decision-making and judgment to visualization, the whole technology chain is upgraded and innovated.

Data quality processing and simplified calculation. For data quality processing, swarm intelligence technology can be developed to mine high-quality data and realize large-scale data acquisition and processing in a low-cost and efficient way; In terms of simplified computing, we can study the approximate computing theory and optimization algorithm framework based on data complexity, so as to guide people to find the basic method of computing-oriented data kernel or data boundary and build a model with efficient computing ability.

High-level representation and modeling of big data. Explore the theory and method of data representation learning based on unsupervised pre-training, extract high-level semantic abstract data representations from large-scale unlabeled corpus data, and improve the generalization ability of semantic representations; The pre-training and fine-tuning model based on small sample data is studied. Based on the data representation obtained from large-scale unsupervised corpus training, a universal high-quality data representation is constructed to assist upper-level tasks. Explore the theory and method of pre-training data modeling based on domain knowledge, integrate human knowledge into the pre-training model, and improve the learning efficiency of the pre-training model. At the same time, in order to cope with the knowledge gap caused by multi-source heterogeneity of data, it is necessary to further develop cross-modal data representation and modeling and multi-source knowledge fusion technology to realize the joint and utilization of global knowledge.

Semantic analysis and knowledge reasoning driven by big data. Study the semantic fusion method of big data oriented to fine-grained semantic units, and significantly improve the effect of association fusion of multi-source heterogeneous data; Study the mechanism and method of domain knowledge acquisition, large-scale common sense acquisition and understanding, and man-machine cooperation in knowledge acquisition in sparse sample environment, improve the ability of knowledge acquisition and greatly increase the scale of knowledge base; This paper studies the interpretable analysis method based on knowledge map, and the new semantic analysis method of deep integration of data-driven and knowledge-guided, which significantly improves the effect and interpretability of various models driven by knowledge.

Incremental decision-making and judgment of man-machine combination. In the future, a large number of physical devices, unmanned devices and human brains will be "online" and "interconnected" through ubiquitous networks, providing basic material conditions for human participation. As a natural system with intelligence, how to participate in the system loop of machine intelligence is a key problem. In the future, we should focus on solving the problem of thinking fusion or decision fusion, explore a new data science theory that human brain data and machine intelligence system information can be transformed each other, and design a high-efficiency calculation method. The current algorithm model will not continue to learn with the generation of data, that is, it cannot cope with the continuous and unexpected changing environment, especially in mission-critical applications. Therefore, it is necessary to study continuous learning, online learning and other technologies to realize continuous online instantaneous decision-making of algorithm models.

Exploratory visual analysis. Study a new visual interaction theory across subjects (people, machines and things), build a hybrid active visual analysis paradigm of multi-person collaboration, support multi-people to explore the same or different visual views from multiple angles at the same time, and design corresponding visual expression and interaction forms; This paper studies the cognitive computing and aggregation understanding model, method and core technology around big data visualization, and constructs the key technology of human-computer collaborative intelligence and its automatic understanding of big data visual content and attributes; Improve the computer automatic understanding, representation and generation capabilities around big data visualization, and build a visual computing and interaction technology system for big data.

Establishing a Task-Driven Big Data Computing Environment

From three aspects: combinable modular programming framework, scalable big data analysis and processing framework, and task-aware knowledge reconstruction model cutting, it provides a better and more flexible analysis and processing environment for all walks of life with scene awareness and consensus awareness.

Modular programming framework that can be combined. In the future, we can develop an extensible and reconfigurable agile development framework for multi-services, build a multimodal analysis pattern library and an intelligent business programming framework, break through the correlation analysis and holographic display of multi-source heterogeneous data, realize the high-level abstraction of data, algorithms and models, form an intelligent combination analysis operator library supporting task-oriented scenarios, realize the endogenous support of intelligent algorithms, and empower interactive collaborative analysis of human-computer mixing.

Scalable big data analysis and processing framework. In the future, a processing framework supporting flexible computing, scalable model and flexible configuration can be developed, that is, various tasks can be divided according to the actual application task scenarios and the requirements of computing resources to meet specific requirements, accuracy requirements, delay requirements, real-time requirements, etc. At the same time, a scalable big data analysis and processing framework is constructed, which can flexibly allocate computing resources and data scale to achieve flexible adaptation.

Task-aware knowledge reconstruction and model clipping. In the future, we can develop task-oriented advanced knowledge computing language and model clipping technology, realize knowledge reconstruction for specific domain tasks based on general knowledge map, and establish a knowledge computing engine integrating common sense and domain knowledge, which can significantly improve the ability and efficiency of knowledge management and utilization.

Suggestions on Promoting the Development of New Generation Big Data Analysis and Processing Technology

Establish a theoretical basis. The establishment of a new system of big data analysis and processing technology is inseparable from the breakthrough of basic theory. Establish the theory of data complexity and big data computability. Regression data origin, explore the regularity of data distribution, structure rules and space-time scale, so as to design an efficient calculation method. Explore the big data analysis theory of heterogeneous broad-spectrum correlation. The weak signals left by various targets in the multi-dimensional data space of "man-machine-object" fusion are correlated and amplified, and the convergence theory of instantaneous decision inference method in wide-area open-loop and non-uniform dimensional environment is studied. Study the theory of security and credibility of big data analysis and processing. On the one hand, study the theory of data security sharing and privacy calculation to ensure the security in the process of data circulation sharing; On the other hand, the inherent deviation of data and the robustness limit and verifiable theory of analysis and processing when data is attacked are studied, and a mechanism that can be prevented, audited and held accountable is established to ensure the credibility of analysis and processing results in a strong confrontation environment.

Increase the application of traction. The new big data analysis and processing technology system should be able to fully and efficiently empower industries, industries and security fields. At the same time, it is also necessary to use tractive application scenarios such as scientific discovery, life health and social governance to promote the healthy and benign development of the new system of big data analysis and processing. Scientific discovery. With the help of big data analysis technology, this paper discovers scientific laws from a large number of experimental data and forms a new scientific research methodology based on big data analysis. Life and health. Research on big data methods to assist the discovery of complex compound molecules, reduce the research and development cost of new drugs, accelerate the improvement of comprehensive medical level, and use big data means to deal with major epidemics and events efficiently and continuously online. Social governance. Give full play to the advantages of big data technology in multi-party complex related problems and social group cognitive modeling and analysis, and build an artificial intelligent decision-making system to realize scientific government decision-making, accurate social governance and efficient public services.

Data governs the ecological environment. The application and development of big data technology cannot be separated from benign data governance and technological ecological construction. Personal privacy protection. It needs corresponding laws and regulations to regulate it. For example, in 2016, the European Union introduced the General Data Protection Regulations to help citizens control personal privacy data; In 2021, China issued the Data Security Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Personal Information Protection Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC), which gave reasonable control and supervision to the collection and use of big data. Ensure the safe circulation and sharing of data. It is necessary to establish rules and regulations for data circulation, optimize systems related to data sharing, trading and circulation, clarify the distribution of data ownership, explore the data trading market, and build an orderly data circulation environment. 

To sum up, in the future, we should develop and break through the general model architecture, analysis model and calculation paradigm, and establish a new architecture, new model and new paradigm, as well as a safe and credible new system of big data analysis and processing technology; Build a new generation of big data analysis and processing software stack; Research and develop corresponding theories and practice traction application; Establish a benign data governance ecology and promote the continuous progress and leap-forward development of big data analysis and processing technology.

The new version of the "Measures for the Administration of Special Funds for the Development of inclusive finance" was issued, and the upper limit of personal loan for entrepreneurial guarantee loans

  The Ministry of Finance today (12th) announced a new version of the Measures for the Administration of Special Funds for Development in inclusive finance, which was optimized and improved in terms of further helping employment and entrepreneurship, improving policy accuracy, and promoting financial support for inclusive finance’s policies to enhance quality and efficiency.

  The special fund for the development of inclusive finance refers to the special transfer payment funds arranged by the central government to support the development of inclusive finance, which is used to support various localities to carry out the discount of business guarantee loans, the central government to support the construction of inclusive finance development demonstration zone, and the targeted cost subsidies of rural financial institutions.

  The new "Measures" increase financial support for entrepreneurial employment by raising the upper limit of the amount of entrepreneurial guarantee loans, relaxing the conditions for applying for loans from small and micro enterprises, and introducing government financing guarantee institutions to provide guarantee and credit enhancement for entrepreneurial guarantee loans. Among them, the new "Measures" will increase the upper limit of personal loans for business guarantee loans from 200,000 yuan to 300,000 yuan, and the upper limit of loans for small and micro enterprises from 3 million yuan to 4 million yuan. It is estimated that 116.1 billion yuan of business guarantee loans will be added every year, which will drive about 1 million people to start businesses and find jobs. Optimize the proportion of new recruits in small and micro enterprises to existing employees in enterprises from 15% to 10%, and enterprises with more than 100 employees from 8% to 5%, and appropriately relax the loan application conditions for small and micro enterprises so that more small and micro enterprises can enjoy policy support.

  In terms of improving policy accuracy, the new "Measures" will narrow the scope of compensation for targeted expenses of rural financial institutions from "all types of loans" to "small credit loans for farmers", focusing on supporting small farmers, ensuring accurate drip irrigation of inclusive finance policies and avoiding generalization of policy support. At the same time, the new "Measures" will include the main forces of the existing rural financial system, such as rural commercial banks and rural credit cooperatives, to further improve the rural financial service system.

The theatrical version of "Slam Dunk Master" is controversial. Will the "lifetime" be a dream or a bad ending?

Wen | Zero One

The animation "Slam Dunk Master" is synonymous with many people’s youthful memories. Until the original author Takehiko Inoue announced last year that he would start the theatrical animation production, this generation of nouns was often inseparable from the word "regret".

The new theatrical version was written and supervised by Takehiko Inoue himself, which naturally aroused the audience’s appetite to the greatest extent. On November 4th, the new theatrical version of "Slam Dunk Master" released the latest preview. Although the plot points to the specific direction of Miyagi Ryota’s foreign articles, it is still a fog, but the screen shows more of the technical style of "Three Shadows and Two Shades" selected this time, which is very different from the TV animation that is well known to the public, and therefore attracts a lot of controversy from fans.

The new theatrical version is expected to be released in Japan on December 3, less than a month ago. After Takehiko Inoue ended the original comic book in the national contest of Xiangbei vs Shanwang, it can be said that it came to an end at the climax of the story, and the animated version of the story came to an abrupt end before the national contest, which made the imperfect youth even more regretful. Now the controversial new theatrical version is about to come out. Will this be the end of regret, the beginning of a new story, or the end of a feeling?

Before analyzing the possibility of the new theatrical version, perhaps we should first review the well-known ending of Slam Dunk Master-Takehiko Inoue used a full five volumes of comics to describe the final battle between Xiangbei and Shanwang (31 volumes in total), Xiangbei completed a shocking reversal in the ups and downs and soul-stirring competition, and then Takehiko Inoue took a stroke to lead Xiangbei to the defeat of Aihe College, and the story ended abruptly.

Considering the popularity of Slam Dunk at that time, this ending is a unique phenomenon in the history of Weekly Junior Jump. There is no way for the protagonist of Wang Dao comics to attack, and there is no time to grow up and upgrade from Grade One to Grade Three. However, most of the contemporary serial comics, such as Naruto and Dragon Ball, failed to end at the author’s original plan like Slam Dunk, and the long serial often leads to many contradictions in the story.

Therefore, there is an industry story that has been passed down to this day-there was a serious contradiction between Jiyingshe and Takehiko Inoue, and the editorial department forced Takehiko Inoue to continue to create and let Xiangbei win all the time, which led to the early termination of comics. However, Takehiko Inoue himself said: "The end time of Slam Dunk Master is very clear, because I have long decided that the end of Slam Dunk Master is the end of Slam Dunk Master, so the most important task is how to enrich the story and make the game more exciting. How to make your work reach the peak in this competition is the key. For me, there is no other ending better than this one. "

Now, it seems that Takehiko Inoue’s independent trip really makes the original comic of Slam Dunk Master more literary and artistic, and it is still the peak work in the history of the comic industry. In 2006, Slam Dunk Master won the first place in the comic department in the "100 Selected Media Arts in Japan" for the 10th anniversary of the media art festival of the Japanese Culture Department. Takehiko Inoue himself has spent a lot of energy since then to draw a new work "The Odyssey", and the style is closer to art than commercial comics.

Compared with comics, Dongying’s animated version of Slam Dunk is more complicated. There are 101 episodes of TV animation, which is the source of slam dunk that most people are familiar with. Its plot came to an abrupt end when Xiangbei entered the national competition, and it did not enter the two major wars after the national competition. The production level of the animated version is a long story-some shots restore the high level of comics, and the music and songs are excellent, but at the same time, the TV version has added a lot of lame original plots, and the painting level is even higher and lower. Takehiko Inoue himself is quite dissatisfied with the changes and production level of the TV version, which is also the reason why the animated version failed to be completed and ended abruptly with the original plot of the warm-up match of Xiang Ling in northern Hunan.

It can be seen that Takehiko Inoue himself has extremely high requirements for the completion and artistry of his works. The original "Slam Dunk Master" is also a rare work in the history of Japanese comics, and Takehiko Inoue is satisfied with the ending of the story of the First World War of Mountain King. Takehiko Inoue himself is dissatisfied with the popular TV version of animation, which leads to regret to this day.

After many years, Takehiko Inoue re-launched the animated theatrical version of the plan, and he also served as a screenwriter and supervisor. Obviously, his purpose will not stop at taking a sum of money from this IP emotional circle. If Takehiko Inoue pursued this point, it would be impossible for him to finish the comic book like that and have been immersed in his comic art ever since. I believe most people can agree that Takehiko Inoue really tried to make a good new book "Slam Dunk Master" before coming out again.

However, Reading Entertainment Jun also needs to put forward a personal point of view-what Takehiko Inoue needs to make up for when he creates a new theatrical version is not the regret of many audiences, but his regret as a comic book author. Why should the new theatrical version be "made like this"? That’s because Takehiko Inoue himself wants to make it like this.

As mentioned above, "Slam Dunk Master" comic is a rare "low opening and high walking" work, which is not only reflected in the popularity and word of mouth, but also in the expressive force of comic creation. In the early stage of serialization, the cartoon style was still exaggerated and immature, but in the later stage of serialization, Takehiko Inoue’s painting and camera shooting level was almost perfect, and basketball was vividly displayed on paper in a realistic style-speed, strength, urgency, flying sweat and strong emotions, which are still amazing even today.

The biggest shortcoming of the TV animation that has been published is the best part of the original comic book-except for some famous scenes that are almost reproduced in the comic book, a lot of action painting in TV animation is embarrassing.

Therefore, it is obvious that Takehiko Inoue’s own regret about Slam Dunk Master is not an abrupt story, but the animation of Slam Dunk Master, which is the most well-known by the public, does not actually reflect all the charm of the original. Takehiko Inoue spent a lot of painstaking efforts on painting, and his attainments in cartoon dynamics and split-lens have reached the peak, which basically failed to be carried forward in animation.

At this time, let’s look back at the style choice of the new theatrical version. At the beginning, the actions of the two brothers on the basketball court have a clear sense of realism, while the lens that leaves the shoes on the beach and runs away is full of tension, and the style of the characters behind is exactly the same as that of the comic version. Obviously, Takehiko Inoue wanted to show his sense of realism and dynamics in the later period of comics in the new theatrical version, and chose 3D production for simulation.

As for the specific performance of the three styles, it is difficult to expand in a short space, but the "saving money theory" that many fans have eloquently said may not be established. From the production point of view, 3D has completely penetrated into all aspects of animation production at present. A large number of well-known excellent 2D animation works have actually been added with 3D production, such as "The Blade of the Ghost Destroys You Guo" and "The Dragon Ball Surpasses brolly", and the world-renowned three-way animation also has "The Battle of Two Cities", which costs a lot.

Netizens are dissatisfied with the trailer. First, there is a huge difference between the three styles and TV animation, and the style is not coherent; Secondly, even if we accept the style of "Three Shadows and Two Shadows", the standard of the trailer of "Slam Dunk Master" is obviously flawed, especially the details of the stadium are vague, and the number of frames seems to be too low. It is still unknown whether 3D production can make people shine in dynamic tension and visual expression.

I have to say, judging from the effect presented in the trailer at present, it is still far from the shaping that makes people feel nervous in the later stage of the cartoon, which can only be expected that the effect of the feature film far exceeds the preview. Another possibility may be that even in Takehiko Inoue, being a cross-border animation supervisor may not be able to achieve the perfect works in his mind.

Although the new theatrical version has been released in Japan on December 3, there is no news that it has been introduced into China. In the past few years, many well-known theatrical films, such as Doraemon, Detective Conan, Working Cell, Digital Baby, Voyager King and Naruto, have been successfully introduced to China many times, but most of them have been released in Japan for several months or even a year, so even if it is expected to be introduced in China, it will have to wait until next year. Considering that the prospect of imported films in the cinema market is not clear at present, online streaming media will not be available at that time.

After 3 years of online shopping, the leather sofa cracked. The lawyer claimed 3 times, and the merchant: it was two layers of leather.

A cracked sofa. Photo of this article Red Star News

Three years ago, Mr. Su, a lawyer in Chengdu, bought a set of high-grade leather sofas on an e-commerce platform, which cost 12,000 yuan. Three years later, the sofa armrests cracked, exposing the back of the sofa, which was a very rough texture.

"The customer service said that they have never sold genuine leather, but they sell high-quality leather, which is microfiber." Mr. Su said that he sued the official flagship store of Santa Monica Furniture to the court, claiming triple compensation for consumer fraud.

On December 19th, the official flagship store of Santa Monica Furniture was interviewed and said that what was sold to Mr. Su was genuine leather, but not cow’s head leather, but "two-layer transfer coating leather".

Lawyers believe that according to the principle of who advocates who gives evidence, consumers should identify the sofa. If it is not genuine leather, it constitutes consumer fraud, and vice versa.

12,000 yuan to buy a leather sofa cracked for three years.

Customer service calls it "microfiber"

Mr. Su is a lawyer who has worked for more than ten years. On May 31, 2016, he bought an American leather sofa in the official flagship store of Santa Monica Furniture, an e-commerce platform. The original price was 15,000, and the discount was 12,000.

"In my profession, I will definitely conduct a careful review when buying large items." Mr. Su said that although the official flagship store of Santa Monica Furniture is a third-party seller of the platform, it is naturally relatively reliable since it has the credit endorsement of the platform.

In October this year, the sofa armrest suddenly cracked, exposing the inner layer and the reverse side of the sofa. The reverse side is very rough texture, while the inner layer is cloth.

"If it is real leather, the reverse side should be fluff, and it should not be so prone to cracking." Mr. Su said that he communicated with the customer service, and the customer service told him directly that they had never sold genuine leather for this sofa, but sold "high quality leather", and the so-called high quality leather was "microfiber".

According to public information, microfiber is superfine fiber PU synthetic leather, which can almost replace genuine leather.

Mr. Su chats with customer service.

"According to the light industry standards, the top layer of leather is allowed to be marked as’ genuine leather’ when the surface material reaches more than 90%, and other imitation leather or synthetic leather cannot be called genuine leather." Mr. Su said that if it is synthetic leather, it obviously doesn’t match his emphasis on the quality of life and the style of the house, so he can’t choose to buy it. He notarized the details page of the sofa, sued the merchant to the People’s Court of Chengdu District, Tianfu New District, Sichuan Province, and demanded triple compensation for "consumer fraud". At present, it is in the pre-litigation mediation stage and has not been formally filed.

On December 22, talking about this encounter, Mr. Su was angry and laughing.

"It is estimated that people in the circle will laugh to death, and buying a sofa can be burned (pitted)." Mr. Su said that the reply given by the e-commerce platform after the intervention was consistent with that of the merchant. "The merchant said that it was a second-layer leather, and the platform believed it. The second-layer leather was not natural animal skin, but it was also reprocessed."

Mr. Su said that according to the light industry standard of China, the definition of leather sofa is very clear. "Either it is full leather, all of it is natural leather, or the contact surface is natural leather." In this case, he believes that it is only necessary to identify whether the sofa is natural leather, or even not. In the indictment, he did not put forward the appraisal, but advocated that the "appraisal fee" should be borne by the seller. "Now there is a complete chain of evidence to prove that it is false. If the merchants are dissatisfied, they can submit an appraisal to the court. In the end, they lose the case, and this appraisal fee is also borne by them."

The order is displayed as genuine leather.

Merchant response

"It’s not high-quality leather, it’s two-layer leather."

Red Star journalists searched in the official flagship store of Santa Monica Furniture on the e-commerce platform and found that this sofa no longer exists. Su Xiansheng’s page shows that this set of sofas has been removed from the shelf. The cracked sofa model is 8019A single-seat sofa. Its purchase link and details page indicate "selected leather", "high-quality leather" and "leather sofa" in many places. The page is attached with the Inspection Report of the National Leather Products Quality Supervision and Inspection Center, which shows that many sofa samples such as 8019 are made of "cow’s head leather".

The screenshot of Mr. Su’s chat with the customer service shows that the customer service directly stated that "this model we have been selling is not genuine leather, but high-quality leather, which is not the first layer of cowhide, but microfiber".

On December 19th, Commissioner Liu, the customer service of the official flagship store of Santa Monica Furniture, replied to an interview with Red Star News reporter that the customer service had just arrived at the post and there was an introduction deviation. This sofa used to sell genuine leather, but last year it was upgraded to high-quality leather, which is microfiber.

"It’s really genuine leather, but it’s not cow’s head leather, but two layers of genuine leather." Miss Liu said that there are several grades of leather, the first is the first layer of leather, and the second is the second layer of leather, which is called the second layer of transfer coating leather in the industry and belongs to the category of leather. For the same sofa, the first leather is 6000 yuan more expensive than the second leather.

"The sofa purchased by Mr. Su has exceeded the shelf life, and now there is a crack. Mr. Su suspects that it is not genuine leather. Even the most professional maintenance master can’t judge whether it is genuine leather from the naked eye." Miss Liu said that if Mr. Su thinks it is not genuine leather, he needs to ask a third-party professional organization for identification; Starting from solving the problem, Mr. Su’s sofa can only be repaired at present, and the expenses need to be borne by Mr. Su himself. "If Mr. Su is willing to solve it, we can reduce the cost."

According to public information, the second-layer cowhide is made by breaking the scraps of the first-layer cowhide, adding polyethylene material and re-bonding, and then spraying with chemical materials or covering with PVC and PU films. The State Light Industry Bureau requires that the new industry logo be implemented on April 1, 2011, and the first layer of cowhide and the first layer of patent leather be renamed as "cow leather"; The second layer of leather was renamed as "artificial leather with cowhide fiber".

Platform response:

"The second skin can be introduced as genuine leather"

On this matter, on December 19th, the Red Star journalist sent an interview outline to the e-commerce platform. On December 26th, the platform responded that the official flagship store of Santa Monica Furniture belonged to a third-party merchant, and the platform checked with the third-party merchant at the first time. After communication and verification, the merchant customer service answered the customer’s questions about the leather of the goods according to the materials of the recently sold goods, which led to misunderstanding. In addition, the 2017 test report uploaded by the merchant was confirmed to be suitable for the post-uploaded goods. At the same time, after verification with the testing agency, the second layer of leather marked on the products sold by the merchant when the customer purchased in 2016 can be introduced as genuine leather.

A snapshot of the products of third-party merchants provided by the platform shows that the product introduction is "selected premium leather", "the contact surface is thickened two-layer leather, and the non-contact surface is imitation leather". The public relations of the platform said that they have coordinated the merchants to carry out free maintenance and follow up the follow-up treatment for the damage of customers’ goods.

Lawyer’s statement

The calculation of limitation of action is controversial.

Lawyer Fang Yi of Beijing Junzejun (Chengdu) Law Firm believes that whether the goods sold by the seller are genuine leather or not depends on the appraisal of relevant appraisal institutions. If the identified goods do not belong to genuine leather, then the seller may be suspected of fraudulent sales and should pay compensation to consumers according to Article 55 of the Consumer Protection Law.

"Although it has been several years since the sale, consumers have only recently discovered and thought that their rights and interests have been damaged, and they have the right to bring a lawsuit to the court within three years from the date of knowing that their rights and interests have been damaged." In this dispute, although the seller excused himself on the grounds of exceeding the warranty period, the dispute in this case is not a product quality liability dispute, nor is the consumer claiming that the seller should bear the responsibility for the quality of the goods, but should pay compensation for the alleged sales fraud. Therefore, the seller’s defense is not the same as what consumers advocate.

Xing Lianchao, a lawyer of Sichuan Jihe Law Firm, believes that the limitation of action should be calculated from the date of delivery.

"After delivery, consumers should be able to judge whether the product quality is qualified or not, and the calculation will start from then on. However, at present, judges are more relaxed about the statute of limitations and generally will not be so strict." Xing Lianchao said that according to who advocates who gives evidence, consumers should identify whether the sofa is genuine leather. If the identification is not genuine leather, they can claim triple compensation.

Microsoft announced that IE browser officially retired in June for 27 years, bearing the memories of netizens.

  Zhongxin Finance on May 17th (Reporter Wu Tao) "Microsoft IE browser officially retired on June 16th". Although Microsoft had hinted before, in the end, Microsoft officially announced the news on the 16th.

  This topic once rushed to the hot search in Weibo, and many netizens said that IE browser witnessed the youth of several generations, and "e-net affection" became history and "Ye Qing knot".

  Microsoft Edge browser Weibo screenshot.

  "Looking back at the 27-year history of IE browser is like a person’s life. It has had a brilliant peak, and it has also become a laughing stock, bearing the memories of several generations, and finally it is not ‘ Goodbye ’ " . Some people feel.

  Once brilliant

  In August 1995, Microsoft released the operating system Windows 95, which introduced the concept of "window" into the PC market for the first time, and created the curtain of the era of visual PC. Today, PC visual operation is still the mainstream operation mode.

  As the default browser of Windows 95, IE browser quickly occupied the market, which can be described as "the peak of debut" and became the browser with the largest market share in the world three years later.

  In 2001, IE browser launched the most "classic" version 6.0, and reached its peak in 2003, and all versions of IE browser accounted for 95% of the global market. It was the golden age of IE browser.

  But "success is also classic, failure is also classic". The version 6.0 of IE browser was used for five years. It was not until 2006 that Microsoft updated IE 7— — In fact, except for more cards, there is no difference in netizens’ perception.

  In 2011, Microsoft introduced IE 9, which has made great changes, but the concept of "slow IE" has been deeply rooted in people’s hearts, and IE 9 is powerless. In 2015, Microsoft announced that it began to incubate its other browser, the "son" Edge browser.

  During this period, various browsers have blossomed in the market, such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc. There are also 360, Baidu, sogou, QQ and other browsers in China, and even almost all websites that do website navigation have their own browsers.

  However, in the face of fierce competitors, IE browser still maintained a moderate pace of development, until now it is about to retire, and IE 11 has become the terminator of Microsoft IE browser. With a history of 27 years, IE browser has only been updated for 11 generations.

  Become a laughing stock

  How is IE browser "abandoned" by users step by step?

  In the process of using IE browser, the shortcomings of IE browser are constantly exposed, such as slow speed, slow response, poor compatibility, and easy to "crash". Of course, the emergence of competitors of IE browser like mushrooms after rain has also accelerated the "death" of IE browser.

  Microsoft Edge browser Weibo screenshot.

  Even a dramatic scene was staged, and some netizens joked, "God, changing skin on the basis of IE is better than IE."

  Finally, in 2010, the first stable version of Google Chrome supporting three operating systems, such as Windows and Linux, was released, which kicked off the nightmare of IE browser. Previously, Chrome had been tested for more than a year.

  Just two years after the launch of Chrome, some research company data show that in 2012, Chrome browser has become the world’s largest browser, accounting for about one-third of the market share, followed by IE browser, accounting for about 32% of the market. In 2015, the market share of IE browser fell below 20%.

  Today, some survey data show that the global market share of IE browser has fallen below 2%. The Google browser Chrome has a market share of over 60%.

  The comparison of these numbers has turned into users’ disappointment and spit on IE. As the official of Microsoft Edge browser said, "Now, compared with IE itself, it may be the meme of Black IE."

  "As a developer, I hope that IE will retire quickly and be compatible with IE." "Please give IE a little respect, because without it, you can’t download other browsers." "The role of IE is to download other browsers. Does anyone object if I say this?" Spitting about IE browser on the Internet can be seen everywhere.

  Some netizens even spoofed and selected the slowest things in the world, "sloths, turtles, starfish and IE." "Who gave IE the courage to ask whether to set it as the default browser?"

  IE not only "blacked out", but also the official Microsoft browser "blacked out". On April 1st this year, on April Fool’s Day, Microsoft’s Edge browser issued a Weibo saying: Edge browser will quit the historical stage in 10 days. At the same time, IE browser will continue to provide services for all users, in the era of Welcome back to IE!

  Derivative problems arise.

  With the end of IE browser, a series of problems are also derived.

  It is understood that at present, many online registration systems of examination websites still stipulate that IE browser must be used. How to solve this problem? Some netizens are worried, "The elders will definitely ask, the blue one ‘ e’ Where is it? "

  Microsoft official website screenshot.

  At present, some domestic browsers have maintained compatibility with IE kernel. The person in charge of 360 browser technology told Zhongxin Finance that 360 browser will continue to maintain the dual-core support capability for a long time, that is, it supports both Chrome kernel and IE kernel, and can automatically switch the more suitable kernel according to the adaptation of the website.

  It is also known that even if IE browser retires, Microsoft will still bring continuous improvement to the "IE compatibility mode" of Edge browser. Even after IE browser is stopped, IE mode in Edge can still expand the use of old applications.

  It is not difficult to see that Microsoft still has to play a game on the "cake" of the browser.

  "IE’s 27-year journey, from now on, this route Edge will continue for IE. Not long ago, the market share of Edge browser desktop finally exceeded 10%. Looking at the glory of IE, Xiao E deeply felt that the road was long and Xiu Yuan was awkward, and I would go up and down. " Microsoft summed up IE and did not forget to pave the way for Edge.

  However, it remains to be seen whether Edge can regain the glory of IE. (End)

Cut interest rates! 60 basis points! Mortgage interest rate is expected to go down again.

January 1st every year is an important "re-pricing day" for many existing mortgages, and many small partners with mortgages welcome the news of "interest rate cuts".
Industry insiders predict that in 2025, with the implementation of moderately loose monetary policy, there is still room for downward mortgage interest rates.
In addition, under the effect of a series of policies to promote the real estate market to "stop falling and stabilize", hot property markets such as Beijing, Shenzhen and Guangzhou have undergone positive changes.
How much money can you save?
The stock mortgage with the repricing date of January 1 ushered in a reduction in interest rates, with an adjustment range of 60 basis points.The loan market quotation rate (LPR) of the mortgage interest rate will be re-priced according to the latest LPR quotation for more than five years.
"I opened the bank App early in the morning and found that the annualized interest rate of the loan became 3.3%, and it was still 3.9% yesterday, which dropped a lot!" On the morning of January 1, Xiao Gu from Tangshan, Hebei said.
"The interest rate’ repricing date’ of many housing loan contracts defaults to January 1 of each year, and the repricing period is one year. That is to say, if the LPR drops in that year, the interest rate cut will only be realized on January 1 of the following year." Banking practitioners said.
According to the data of the central bank, in 2024, the LPR linked to the mortgage interest rate for more than five years cut interest rates three times: by 25 basis points in February, by 10 basis points in July, by 25 basis points in October, and by 60 basis points in the whole year. This means that from the 1st, the personal housing loan interest rate with January 1st as the repricing date will drop by 60 basis points to 3.3%.
How much money can you save?Take the loan amount of 1 million yuan and 30 years as an example. When the mortgage interest rate is 3.9%, the monthly payment is 4,717 yuan, while when the mortgage interest rate is 3.3%, the monthly payment is 4,380 yuan, a difference of more than 300 yuan.
Against the background that the mortgage interest rate may continue to decline in 2025 and January 1st is an important "repricing day" every year, the following user voting activities can be designed to collect the public’s views and expectations on the change of mortgage interest rate:
It is expected to be further reduced
Will the mortgage interest rate be further lowered in the future?
With the gradual narrowing of the spread between old and new mortgages and the warming of the stock market, many residents have temporarily changed their idea of repaying loans in advance.Industry insiders predict that in 2025, LPR (loan market quotation rate) still has the possibility of decline.
"During the peak period of last year, the total amount of early repayment of loans by our bank once hit a new high, but in 2024, the total amount of early repayment of loans decreased." The person in charge of the credit department of a large state-owned bank in Zhejiang said that since the second half of 2024, the situation of early repayment of loans has improved, especially in recent months, after the interest rate of existing mortgage loans has been lowered again, the monthly amount of early repayment of loans has decreased by about half compared with the same period of last year.
According to industry analysts,In 2025, under the moderately loose monetary policy, the policy interest rate is expected to continue to decline, and then the LPR quotation will be guided to follow up.The downward adjustment of mortgage interest rate will help promote the recovery of the real estate market, release the consumption potential of residents and promote the recovery and growth of the consumer market.
Zhang Jun, chief economist of china galaxy Securities, predicted that,In 2025, it is possible to reduce the policy interest rate (that is, the 7-day reverse repo rate) by 40-60 basis points, and guide the LPR over 5 years to go down by 60-100 basis points.
Wang Qing, chief macro analyst of Oriental Jincheng, judged that,In 2025, the policy rate cut may reach 0.5 percentage points.It is significantly higher than the interest rate cut of 0.3 percentage points last year, and the interest rates of various structural monetary policy instruments will be lowered in due course, thus guiding the financing costs of enterprises and residents to go down. It is not ruled out that in 2025, it is possible to continue to implement a large-scale targeted interest rate cut on residential mortgages by greatly guiding the downward trend of LPR quotations for more than five years, which is a key measure to promote the real estate market to stop falling and stabilize.
There are positive signals in many property markets.
Under the influence of a series of policies to promote the real estate market to "stop falling and stabilize", the property market has undergone positive changes.
On January 1, 2025, the online signing data of the Beijing Municipal Commission of Housing and Urban-Rural Development showed thatIn December 2024, the online signing volume of second-hand housing in Beijing exceeded 21,000 sets.Set a record in the past 21 months;It increased by 15% month-on-month and 66% year-on-year.
According to the statistics of Zhongyuan Real Estate Research Institute, in 2024, the transaction volume of second-hand houses in Beijing was as high as 175,600 sets, up 13% from 2023. The overall listed houses have decreased significantly in the last two months, and the number of houses currently on sale has dropped to about 145,000 sets, which is more than 20,000 sets less than the highest point of more than 170,000 sets.
Zhang Dawei, chief analyst of Zhongyuan Real Estate, believes that after the "September 30" New Deal in 2024, the transaction volume of second-hand houses in Beijing has been running at a high level for three consecutive months, especially in December 2024 under the influence of deed tax policy, and the transaction volume of second-hand houses has exceeded 21,000 sets, which is the highest value for 21 consecutive months and the second highest value for 44 consecutive months, fully reflecting the promotion of the policy.
From the perspective of future market trends, Zhang Dawei believes that the warm winter of Beijing property market will last until the first quarter of 2025, the transaction volume will continue to run at a high level, and the moderate increase in transaction price will be the main market characteristics in the coming months.
Not only in Beijing, but also in many hot cities, the property market showed obvious stabilization signals at the end of 2024.
Taking the Guangzhou market as an example, in terms of new house transactions,In December 2024, the transaction volume of new commercial housing in Guangzhou was about 1.2 million square meters, an increase of about 40% from the previous month and 70% from the same period last year.In the second-hand housing market, the transaction volume remained high. On the market side, in December 2024, there were 22 homestead transactions in Guangzhou, with a turnover of 25.45 billion yuan, and the transfer scale was at a high level.
In the Shenzhen market,In December 2024, the transaction volume of new commercial housing in Shenzhen was about 700,000 square meters, down about 10% from the previous month and up about 180% year-on-year.In the second-hand housing market, Shenzhen’s monthly transaction volume reached a new high in December 2024, and the price increase narrowed.
Judging from the number of cities where house prices have gone up and down, the data released by the Central Finger Research Institute shows that in November and December of 2024, the average listing price of second-hand houses in four cities and two cities respectively increased from the previous month.

On September 26th, 2025, the special exhibition of "Ningbo in Light and Shadow" in Spain opened, and more than 100 people gathered, including UN officials, representatives of Chinese and Western governments, and university professors. This first show of "Ningbo in Light and Shadow" in Western Europe is another vivid practice of Ningbo’s international cultural exchange.

Since May last year, in 15 months, activities have spread all over Cambodia, the United States and other 19 countries. Through factory culture corners, city exhibition halls and other forms, Xuedou Mountain’s "Oriental Smile" and Angkor Wat’s "Khmer Smile" are connected from a distance, making the city marks such as Zhoushan Port and Hangzhou Bay Bridge in Ningbo amazing overseas. The activity reached nearly 460,000 person-times, which not only showed Ningbo’s industrial vitality and humanistic heritage, but also wrote a long scroll of light and shadow in the global dialogue with the concept of humanistic economics-and this exploration has never stopped.

Take root:

Seek resonance in differences and break the "communication dilemma"

"Many cultural exchanges are like shouting through the glass, and they are lively, and the other party may not understand." The person in charge of Ningbo International Communication Center said. Ningbo’s solution is to let culture find resonance in differences.

"Ningbo in the Light and Shadow" has never been the same exhibition template. In the National Exhibition Hall of Buddhism in Southeast Asia, Maitreya in Xuedou Mountain and Angkor Wat are separated by a mysterious smile, and local employee Haruki Alin sighs "cordial as neighbors"; In Casablanca, Morocco, in front of the image of Ningbo Zhoushan Port in Tongze Logistics Workshop, JALAL, a worker in Tangier Port, was fascinated. "This is the dream of all port people"; On the Madrid booth, the narrative logic is even more ingenious. The fishing festival Qian Fan competes with Spanish traditional fishing, Peking Opera peking opera blues and Flamenco dancers, and Carlos stops: "The love for life and the awe of nature are the same all over the world."

Employees of Shi Danu Cambodia factory are watching the exhibition.

Antonio, the president of the Spanish China Friendship Association and a former member of the Madrid Region, gave an intriguing example: "China has the wisdom of’ harmony without difference’, and the Spanish proverb says’ en la variedad est á el Gustato’ (the flavor is all in diversity), which is a truth." He turned the patterns of Hemudu’s "Two Birds in the Morning" and Picasso’s "guernica" on the front and back of the round fan. "This is the best proof-civilization is not either one or the other, but symbiosis and common prosperity."

The "one meter space" in the corner of the exhibition hall is ingenious. Mario, a Spanish guy, holds a graphic seal and prints "Don Quixote on the way" and "Ningbo Tianyi Pavilion" on the bookmark. "I used to think that China culture is an old thing in the museum, but now I can make it myself and suddenly get close." He held up the finished product and smiled shyly. Louisa, holding a bamboo curtain wind chime, gently shook: "China culture is the voice in your hand."

In Detroit, USA, in the exhibition hall of Shenglong’s overseas factory, cultural resonance is also happening quietly. This Ningbo-based manufacturing enterprise specially moved the automatic production line of the extremely smart factory and the Ningbo International Circuit into the exhibition hall. Eric Musk, a supplier development engineer, has been to Ningbo three times, and each time he came and went in a hurry. He pointed to the photos of the Hangzhou Bay Bridge and said with regret, "You must drive here next time."

This rooted communication logic is integrated into Ningbo’s cultural genes. As an important port of origin of the Maritime Silk Road, this city has never stopped exploring the dialogue between civilizations. Nowadays, this exploration has turned into images in the exhibition hall, patterns on the round fan and the temperature at the fingertips, which has made cultural exchanges jump out of the one-way output of "you talk and I listen" and become a two-way trip of "seeing each other".

Cohesion:

Gather strength in coordination and solve the problem of "fighting alone"

Exchange and mutual learning have never been a one-man show.

Ningbo, deeply impressed. This city, with 26,000 private foreign trade enterprises and 11 national cultural export enterprises, is weaving a multi-coordinated cultural exchange network, turning scattered forces into a joint force to promote mutual learning among civilizations.

In the combination of "steady expansion", the action of "thousands of enterprises expand the market" expanded the number of overseas exhibitions to 172, an increase of 72% over last year; In the future, "Thousands of Enterprises Exhibition" plans to directly set up cultural zones in overseas factories and exhibition sites.

The timing of the special exhibition of "Ningbo in Light and Shadow" in Spain is quite meaningful-it coincides with the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Europe and the 20th anniversary of the establishment of comprehensive strategic partnership between China and the West. The government accurately docked diplomatic nodes and invited Marcel Reze, deputy director of the International Development and Cooperation Department of the United Nations Tourism Organization, and other heavyweight guests to be present. Marcel Razer recognized Zhoushan Port in Ningbo at a glance: "This is one of the busiest ports in the world. I hope this exhibition will let more people enter Ningbo and understand the openness and vitality of this city."

Ningbo specially combed the experience of Ninghai stationery industry in going to sea-772 stationery enterprises went to sea in groups and integrated elements such as Drum Tower and Tianyige into product design, with annual sales exceeding 34.55 billion yuan. These replicable "Ningbo experiences" make culture lead by rules.

The deep participation of enterprises has given cultural communication a rooted soil. More than 300 overseas factories and thousands of industry exhibitions are not only important links in production, manufacturing and sales, but also natural stations for cultural exchanges. Deye Electric moved the miniature models of Ningbo Drum Tower and Sanjiangkou into the exhibition hall at the home appliance exhibition in Almaty, Kazakhstan. When merchants discussed business, they naturally talked about the business stories on the ancient Silk Road. Inspired by "Ningbo in Light and Shadow", Tongze Logistics held a photo exhibition in the factory in Morocco. Chinese and foreign employees used lenses to record each other’s daily work. Tao Haijun, the general manager, said frankly: "Sometimes, a photo can bring us closer than ten sentences. With cultural recognition, team cohesion will naturally be strong."

The picture shows the "Ningbo Day" event at the Osaka World Expo.

The scene at the Osaka World Expo is more instructive. Ningbo Jianfeng New Materials participated in the exhibition with the "Marine Pollution Control Scheme", instead of piling up complicated technical parameters, it exhibited T-shirts and electric toothbrushes made of recycled materials. Founder Ma Yiming didn’t expect that this way of combining environmental protection technology with life aesthetics caused an unexpected resonance on the spot. In the end, the company signed a memorandum of cooperation with Toray Corporation of Japan, and Ma Yiming said with emotion: "I used to think that culture is soft power, but now I understand that it is a hard currency that can promote cooperation."

The increasing salary of social forces has made cultural exchanges warm. The teacher of the Spanish Chinese School played the Spanish folk song "Dove" on the cucurbit flute, which blended Chinese and Western culture and instantly "warmed up the scene". Luna, an overseas Chinese, took the flower-wrapped work of "Hi Craft" in Zhenhai and explained in detail the origin of this "three-dimensional embroidery" in Qing Dynasty. Foreign media reporters followed the exhibition "Catch Live Fish", and Yusuf Dusha, Secretary General of Bangladesh National Photography Association, took pictures of factory employees.

Ningbo enterprise Tongze Logistics Company, which entered Morocco.

Liu Chengang, head of the Cultural Office of the China Embassy in Morocco, commented quite pertinently: "The cultural exchange in Ningbo is not an official’ spring snow’, but a’ national action’ in which the government, enterprises, overseas Chinese and non-governmental organizations participate. This kind of communication has roots, souls and temperatures, so that it can truly enter the hearts of the people. "

Endurance:

Seek long-term effect in the mechanism and prevent "short-lived"

"It is not difficult to hold a lively exhibition, but it is difficult to let the influence of culture stay and pass on." Yang Changqing, director of the China Cultural Center in Madrid, expressed the core proposition of international cultural exchange. Ningbo jumped out of the short-term thinking of "organizing activities" and used the systematic solution of "building mechanism, promoting long-term effect and strengthening connection" to transform cultural exchange from a fleeting "flash in the pan" to a "long-flowing stream" rooted in people’s hearts, and wrote a unique "Ningbo answer" on the answer sheet of foreign cultural exchange.

Take root in subtleties and make cultural exchanges "close". The practice in Ningbo is to make a "big article" from a "small incision". The global layout of "one meter space" is the vivid landing of the "people-oriented" concept of humanistic economics. These "never-ending booths" have no sense of grand narrative distance, but only the temperature that can be touched at the fingertips, embedding the customs of Ningbo into the daily life of ordinary people overseas, so that civilizations can learn from each other in the square inch of "one meter" and grow the most vivid vitality.

The picture shows the employees of Xilin Logistics Handling Equipment (Cambodia) Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Ningbo Ruyi Co., Ltd., taking a group photo in the "one meter space".

Supported by the system, let civilizations learn from each other. "Mutual learning between civilizations requires long-term persistence and more institutionalized guarantee". Ningbo knows this well, and builds a "long-term dam" for cultural exchanges with a black-and-white cooperation agreement.

The "quarterly graphic printing experience and half-year photographer salon" agreed by Ningbo and Spain-China Friendship Investment Promotion Association has changed "Ningbo in Light and Shadow" from a static exhibition to a dynamic dialogue; After the Osaka World Expo, the experience of "culture+industry" was copied to 14 key exhibitions in Japan.

The picture shows Antonio (first from the right), president of the Spanish China Friendship Association and former member of the Madrid Region, praising the special exhibition of "Ningbo in the Light and Shadow" in Spain.

Relying on people’s hearts to connect, let the agreement between mountains and seas "last". "The friendship between countries lies in the people’s blind date, and the people’s blind date lies in the heart connection", which is more lasting than the system and is the connection between people across mountains and seas. This is the soul of Ningbo’s cultural exchange-Antonio announced "going to China in October" with a "two birds in the morning" fan, Professor Damaso joked "flying to Ningbo in an hour", Zhan Zhukangda, chairman of East International Catering Company, calculated "bringing ham for Ningbo’s cabbage cake", and Carmen, vice president of Huawei Spain, bluntly "read the interesting soul of Ningbo".

These impromptu and sincere agreements, together with Mario Lazany, a former Italian parliamentarian in Florence who traveled to and from Ningbo for 68 times in 22 years, and the teenagers of China, Japan and South Korea who painted long ink scrolls together, constitute a "group portrait" of Ningbo civilization. Here, cultural exchange is no longer a cold agenda, but a warm interaction of "you bring ham and I bring cabbage cakes", a persistent persistence of "68 round trips", a concern between people and a fetter between cities.

The wind comes from the East China Sea. This city, which has a collection of ancient and modern Hong Kong and connects the world, is proved by solid practice that mutual learning among civilizations is never a gorgeous slogan, but a vivid practice of humanistic economics and a vivid interpretation of "each has its own beauty, the United States and the United States share the same". Ningbo’s password is, after all, a "people-oriented" solution-to ensure long-term effectiveness by mechanism, to convey temperature by details, to build a solid foundation by people’s hearts, to make cultural exchanges a bridge across mountains and seas, and to make civilizations learn from each other and grow into endless forces.

Yang Cai commented on three important judgments and told you where China’s economic confidence came from.

On the morning of July 16th, the National Bureau of Statistics held a press conference to announce the economic report card of China in the first half of 2018, which was evaluated as "stable to good" in four words. In the first half of the year, the GDP increased by 6.8% year-on-year.

That night, CCTV Financial Channel invited the National Bureau of Statistics.chief economic managerSheng Laiyun and Zhao Changwen, Minister of Industrial Economy Department of the State Council Development Research Center, were guests in the studio and made a heavy interpretation.

In the first half of the year, China’s economy was macro-stable, meso-progressive and micro-good.

Sheng Laiyun: Macro-stability is reflected in "three stabilities and one improvement"

Sheng Laiyun, Chief Economist of National Bureau of Statistics:It is the stable growth, stable employment, stable prices and the improvement of international payments, which are also the four major indicators that we often observe the macroeconomic operation situation.

"Steady growth", the semi-annual report shows that it increased by 6.8% in the first half of the year and 6.7% in the second quarter, which is the 12th consecutive quarter that China’s economy has been running at 6.7%— 6.9%, so the growth stability is very strong.

"Employment is stable", and it is stable and positive. We released the survey unemployment rate data for the first time in the first quarter of this year, which was 4.8% in June and operated below 5% for three consecutive months. Moreover, there are data on the total number of new jobs in cities and towns. In the first half of the year, the number of new jobs was 5.72 million, which was 68% for the whole year.

"Stable price", the price index of CPI is 1-mdash this year; June basically fluctuated around 2%.

"One improvement" means the continuous improvement of the international balance of payments. In the first half of the year, the surplus of trade in goods was more than 900 billion yuan, which was sharply narrowed by 26.7% compared with the previous year, but our foreign exchange reserves remained above 3.1 trillion US dollars.

Therefore, judging from these major indicators, the economic operation in the first half of the year was generally stable, and there were many bright spots in a reasonable range.

Zhao Changwen: From the perspective of progress, we can observe it from three aspects.

Zhao Changwen, Minister of Industrial Economics, the State Council Development Research Center:On the one hand, from the perspective of investment, the whole investment, especially the investment in manufacturing industry, has maintained a trend of steady improvement. In the first half of this year, manufacturing investment increased by 6.8%, compared with the past, for example, last year, which was about 4%— The range of 5% and the level of 2.8% in the lowest quarter of 2016 did show a good change. Investment in manufacturing industry is actually a very important signal reflecting the confidence of entrepreneurs and the real economy.

The second is to observe the relationship between supply and demand and the balance between supply and demand. Then there is an indicator of capacity utilization rate in the data released today, 76.7%, which actually reflects that the relationship between supply and demand in the whole economy, especially in the real economy, is undergoing very positive changes. Compared with the past, the first quarter of 2016 was 72.9%, which is a big change compared with the new data. Not only is the overall utilization rate changed, but the utilization rate of many industrial sectors has improved. In the past few years, the capacity utilization rate of steel and coal, which have relatively large capacity, has improved.

The third aspect is from the perspective of industrial structure optimization. For example, the growth rate of high-tech industries and equipment manufacturing industries is obviously faster than that of industries above designated size, and the growth rate of service industries is relatively good, so I think these three aspects are enough to see progress from a medium perspective.

Sheng Laiyun: micro-good, mainly reflected in two aspects.

National Bureau of Statistics(NBS)chief economic manager Sheng Laiyun:On the one hand, the profits of enterprises are constantly improving, and on the other hand, the income of residents continues to increase, which is a manifestation of two microeconomic entities. From the perspective of corporate profits, this year is 1-mdash; In May, the profits of industrial enterprises above designated size increased to 12.5%, which was 4.9 percentage points faster than that in the first quarter, which is remarkable. Because two years ago, we remember that when we released the data, we said that the macro level was good and the micro level was not good. At that time, the production price of industrial products continued to decline, and corporate profits declined, with an increase of 21% last year. Therefore, in the first half of this year, the profits of enterprises continued to improve on the basis of an increase of 21% last year, which is a bright spot.

From the residents’ point of view, residents’ income continues to increase steadily. According to the survey of the National Bureau of Statistics, the national per capita disposable income increased by 8.8% in the first half of the year, and after deducting prices, it increased by 6.6%, which is similar to the GDP growth rate of 6.8%.

Therefore, from the perspective of these two micro-subjects, the micro-economy has performed well.

Zhao Changwen: Micro-good is also reflected in the improvement of corporate efficiency


Zhao Changwen, Minister of Industrial Economics, the State Council Development Research Center:Not only is the total profit increased, the key is that the profit rate of many industries has been significantly improved. For example, the profit rate of industrial main business income announced in the first half of this year is 6.36%, which is actually much higher than in the past, which is a very positive change. In addition, the micro-good is also reflected in the fact that more and more people are willing to start businesses, and more and more enterprise market players are born. We also have a data that the number of newly registered enterprises registered every day reaches 11,800.

The world economy is facing challenges.

Sheng Laiyun: Pay full attention to the long-term, complex and arduous Sino-US trade war.

National Bureau of Statistics(NBS)chief economic manager Sheng Laiyun:One of the biggest challenges in the external environment this year is that the United States insists on provoking trade frictions around the world, especially the escalating trade dispute against China, which has indeed brought great uncertainty to the stable recovery of the world economy. Judging from the data of our semi-annual report in the first half of the year, its influence has not been fully revealed, but I think we should attach great importance to this matter, because the trade friction initiated by the United States is worldwide, not just against China. Uncertainty itself is a risk, because uncertainty not only affects people’s expectations, but also affects people’s investment and consumption behavior, especially the trade dispute against China, which actually has a great impact on China’s industries, including industrial chains, industrial chains and industrial layout around the world. We should attach great importance to this issue and conduct in-depth research.

Sheng Laiyun: Facing the trade war, strengthen confidence and maintain strength.


National Bureau of Statistics(NBS)chief economic manager Sheng Laiyun:I think Sino-US trade disputes should be prepared for a protracted war. At the same time, we should see its impact, strengthen our confidence and maintain our strength. Because now we are standing on the moral high ground, we insist on multilateralism, free trade, unilateralism and protectionism, we conform to the trend of globalization, and we are upholding the rules of fair and free trade competition. There is a saying in China that a word helps a lot, so we should keep our concentration.

Sheng Laiyun: The biggest advantage of China is its vast market space and great consumption potential.

National Bureau of Statistics(NBS)chief economic manager Sheng Laiyun:The market space in China is very large, and our greatest advantage and potential are its vast market space, great consumption potential and large room for manoeuvre, so we can trade time for space and finally win the Sino-US trade dispute.

Sheng Laiyun: Take the initiative to turn crisis into opportunity.


National Bureau of Statistics(NBS)chief economic manager Sheng Laiyun:Turn a crisis into an opportunity and take the initiative. This dispute is actually a reverse mechanism, which can force us to further reform and opening up, and can force us to further increase reform and transformation and upgrading, including adjusting some of our industrial structures. Because in the past, China was the factory of the world, and a considerable part of our products were designed to meet some consumption of developed countries, so under the current environmental conditions, we must increase innovation.

Sheng Laiyun: Respond to the risk challenge of uncertainty with deterministic transformation and upgrading and further reform and opening up.

National Bureau of Statistics(NBS)chief economic manager Sheng Laiyun:We should take the initiative to open up and upgrade, and strive to turn this crisis and challenge into an opportunity to promote China’s reform, opening up, transformation and upgrading.

Zhao Changwen: The uncertainty brought by the trade war may disturb the expectations of the real economy and financial markets.


Zhao Changwen, Minister of Industrial Economics, the State Council Development Research Center:This trade dispute between China and the United States involves many aspects. Although it is manifested in trade, it will actually bring some influence to the whole economic and trade field, not only to China, but also to the world. As we all know, the Sino-US trade dispute was initiated by the United States, and we were forced to fight. In fact, I think there are risks and opportunities, or there are both risks and opportunities behind this uncertainty, because risks and opportunities are originally problems that accompany each other. What is the biggest risk for us? It may have a great disturbing effect on the development of China’s economy, the development of the real economy and the expectation of the financial market, and this disturbing effect will change the behavior of investors, thus bringing some influence. Therefore, in this sense, we must do a good job in risk management, including further strengthening our supervision and deepening reform and opening up to improve our ability to cope with risk management.

Zhao Changwen: The trade war made us realize the importance and urgency of mastering key technologies.

Zhao Changwen, Minister of Industrial Economics, the State Council Development Research Center:This may also be a good opportunity for us to further improve our development, and we can actually observe this opportunity from many aspects. For example, it can make us further realize the shortcomings of our development and the shortcomings of our development, especially the key technologies and core technologies that are subject to people’s situation. Perhaps in the past, we felt that there was a gap between us and the United States, but we didn’t realize that the gap was actually very large. Then a stronger consensus will be formed, and we must work hard to solve the shortcomings of these key technologies and core technologies. There is another aspect. In fact, the development of China in the past 40 years of reform and opening up is largely due to the reform and opening up. Therefore, I want to take this Sino-US trade dispute as an event to further promote opening up and deepen reform. This is also an opportunity that I think the Sino-US trade dispute has brought us, and all parties have reached a consensus to further deepen reform and promote opening up.

China’s economy will remain stable and positive in the second half of the year.

Sheng Laiyun: The biggest strength to support China’s economy is transformation and upgrading.

National Bureau of Statistics(NBS)chief economic manager Sheng Laiyun:Judging from the current situation, I think the second half of the year will continue to maintain the overall stability, stability and improvement, and stability and quality improvement. The main reason is that I think there are still many conditions and potentials to support China’s stable economy, and there are still many conditions to work hard. I think the biggest advantage is that China’s economy is in a good state of transformation and upgrading, and its economic operation stability, coordination and sustainability are constantly increasing. It is no accident that China’s economic growth rate has remained in the range of 6.7% and 6.9% for 12 consecutive quarters, because China’s economy has successfully switched from high-speed growth to medium-high-speed growth after nearly seven years of adjustment, and this shift can be said to be relatively successful. In addition, I think the transformation and upgrading are in good shape. On the one hand, from the perspective of industrial structure, in recent years, China’s economic and industrial structure has realized a transformation from industry-led to industrial service-oriented to jointly promote economic growth, and the contribution rate of service industry to economic growth is constantly improving, becoming the main driving force for growth. This trend continued in the first half of this year. In the first half of this year, the service industry accounted for 54.3% of GDP, which was about 3 percentage points higher than last year, and the contribution rate to GDP growth reached 60%. This is one of the confidence.

Another reason is that the structure of demand is also constantly upgrading, that is, the original investment is driven by investment, consumption and import and export, especially the role of consumption in supporting the stable operation of the economy is obviously enhanced. One data in the first half of the year is that the contribution rate of final consumption to GDP growth among the three major demands reached 78.5%, an increase of 14 percentage points over last year.

These two aspects determine that the stability and coordination of China’s economic operation are being enhanced, and China’s economy is the biggest confidence to maintain steady progress and stability.

Zhao Changwen: The strength to support China’s economy comes from the determination to promote high-quality development.

Zhao Changwen, Minister of Industrial Economics, the State Council Development Research Center:I think the greatest strength of China’s economy comes from the following aspects: first, our confidence and determination to promote high-quality development; second, our confidence and determination to comprehensively deepen reform and promote opening up; and third, the yearning and pursuit of a better life by all the people and their unremitting efforts for this, which is our greatest strength. Of course, we also have many favorable conditions objectively. Although there is a gap between us and the United States, as far as the world is concerned, compared with ourselves, the speed of industrial upgrading in China is still relatively fast. Especially from the manufacturing sector, the proportion of exports from our medium and high-tech manufacturing sector to the whole manufacturing industry should keep rising. This indicator has declined in the past few years, including the United States, the European Union and Japan. This actually reflects the improvement of the international competitiveness of China’s manufacturing sector from one side, which is where our confidence lies.
