  China news agency, Beijing, January 26th (Reporter Shen Chen) Adidas, a partner of Beijing Olympic Games, officially launched the "Star of the Great Wall", a game ball designed for the Beijing Olympic football match, here on the 26th, and Adidas’ 2008 Olympic football tour started.

  The "Star of the Great Wall" was specially designed by Adidas for the Beijing Olympic Games, highlighting the elements of China. The world is dominated by red and gold with strong China characteristics, with the Great Wall pattern on the hook edge, and the word "China" inscribed by Nian Weisi, a leading soccer player in China, is printed on the sphere.


Nian Weisi, a veteran of China football, introduced the feeling of writing the word "China" on the "Star of the Great Wall" football.

  Nian Weisi said that he has witnessed the development of China football, and it is a golden opportunity to hold the Olympic Games in Beijing. He expects China football to make a breakthrough at home. "I hope that the international players can eat well, practice well and get ready during the preparation period. By August 8, they will go into battle lightly, play the style and play the level, and win glory for the country under the influence of China."

  China Olympic athletes Zhao Xuri, Jiang Ning, Shen Longyuan and China women’s football players Li Jie, Han Duan and Bi Yan felt the "Star of the Great Wall" at the first time. Zhao Xuri said that the surface of the "Great Wall Star" is not very smooth, and the ball speed will be faster and easier to control during the game. "I hope to score more goals when I get to the Beijing Olympic Games."

  It is reported that the "Star of the Great Wall" uses the most advanced 14 pieces of skin splicing and the latest molecular material technology on the surface of the sphere to help football achieve greater strength, stronger rotation and better control.

  China international Zheng Zhi, who traveled far away in England, showed his expectations for the Olympic Games through video. In 1999, Zheng Zhi was 19 years old, and his impact on the Olympic Games with the then Olympic team failed. In 2008, the Olympic Games will be held in Beijing, and he looks forward to flying high with other Olympic teenagers. (End)

Interpretation of listed car companies’ financial reports in the first half of the year; Car companies at home and abroad face profit challenges together.

  In the first half of 2019, car companies at home and abroad had a hard time. According to the semi-annual/second-quarter financial reports published by listed car companies, many car companies have experienced performance decline and even losses due to multiple factors such as declining sales and high R&D investment. In order to stop loss in time, some car companies also try to control costs by laying off employees, closing factories or reducing R&D investment to reverse the situation.

  ■ Reduce the annual sales target with a view to stable development.

  In the first half of the year, the word "decline" in the domestic auto market was the first, which was reflected in the financial reports of listed auto companies, that is, everyone’s life was generally difficult.

  Geely Automobile, which has made great strides in the past two years, is quite ambitious to be an "independent brother". However, since the end of 2018, Geely has also fallen into the dilemma of declining sales growth. According to public data, from January to July 2019, the cumulative total sales volume of Geely Automobile was 743,000 units, down 16% year-on-year. Earlier, Geely Automobile also announced that its annual sales target for 2019 will be lowered by 10% from 1.51 million units to 1.36 million units.

  According to the group profit warning issued by Geely Automobile recently, as of June 30, 2019, Geely Automobile’s net profit in the first half of the year decreased by about 40% year-on-year, far lower than the net profit of 6.67 billion yuan in the same period last year. For the decline in profit, Geely believes that this is mainly due to the fact that the overall sales volume of the group’s automobiles fell beyond expectations and actively reduced dealer inventory.

  Changan Automobile, which is also affected by the decline in sales, still cannot escape the "fate" of performance loss this quarter. According to official data, in the first half of 2019, the net profit loss of Changan Automobile was 1.9 billion to 2.6 billion yuan, which was as high as 218.04%-261.53% compared with the same period of last year. In the first half of the year, Changan’s joint venture and independent sectors all performed poorly, and the cumulative sales volume decreased by 31.65% year-on-year to 825,000 units.

  Compared with Geely and Changan, whose sales declined, Great Wall Motor, which achieved a contrarian growth in sales in the first half of the year, also faced a profit problem.

  In the first half of 2019, Great Wall Motor sold a total of 493,500 new cars, a year-on-year increase of 4.7%. Despite this, Great Wall Motor still experienced a double decline in operating income and net profit in the first half of the year. According to the 2019 interim results forecast of Great Wall Motor, in the first half of this year, Great Wall Motor achieved operating income of about 41.38 billion yuan, down about 15% year-on-year; The net profit was about RMB 1.57 billion, down about 58% year-on-year; The net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies after deducting non-recurring gains and losses was about RMB 1.24 billion, down about 65% year-on-year.

  In this regard, Great Wall Motor said: "During the reporting period, the company increased the product preferential quota to benefit consumers, and continued to increase brand promotion and R&D investment, resulting in a year-on-year decline in net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies." Based on the market environment in the first half of the year, Great Wall Motor also lowered its sales target for 2019 from 1.2 million to 1.07 million to keep the overall sales healthy, stable and sustainable.

  In the first half of this year, Haima Automobile, jiangling motors and FAW Car also suffered a sharp year-on-year decline in net profit.

  ■ The profitability of overseas car companies has been greatly tightened.

  The downturn in China’s auto market has also greatly tightened the global revenue of many multinational auto companies.

  Daimler, which is famous for making money, has suffered a "long-lost" profit loss. According to public reports, in the first half of this year, Daimler’s revenue increased by 2% year-on-year to 82.35 billion euros, but its net profit fell by 78% year-on-year to 907 million euros. The report shows that Daimler’s expenditure on special projects increased significantly in the first half of this year, mainly for further disposal of diesel vehicle exhaust emissions and recall of Mercedes-Benz cars equipped with defective airbags produced by Takada Company of Japan. In the second quarter of this year, Daimler’s special project expenditure reached 4.2 billion euros, which directly affected the company’s performance — — In the second quarter, earnings before interest and tax lost 1.6 billion euros, which was the first quarterly performance loss of Daimler in nine years.

  The decline in sales has further affected Daimler’s profitability. In the second quarter of this year, the overall sales volume of Daimler’s passenger car sector decreased by 3% to 575,000 units. To this end, Daimler has repeatedly issued profit warnings; He also said that in order to improve the profitability, the research and development costs of Mercedes-Benz cars will be greatly reduced by 2025, and the alliance with competitors will be strengthened.

  Under the tide of the new four modernizations of automobiles, large automobile groups don’t want to fall behind in the above fields. This directly brings about the overweight of R&D investment.

  Thanks to the steady performance of the China market, in the second quarter of this year, BMW achieved a cumulative sales increase of 1.5% to 647,000 vehicles, and its revenue also increased by 3% to 25.715 billion euros. Despite this, the company’s earnings before interest and tax fell by 28.4%, from 2.866 billion euros to 2.053 billion euros.

  In this regard, BMW Group said that the company has been expanding its investment in pure electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles, and continues to optimize internal combustion engines. The reason for the decline in profits is that the increase in expenditure on electric vehicles has lowered the profit margin.

  Also suffering from the decline in performance is Ford Motor Company. The nearly "Waterloo" sales performance in the China market has made this century-old automobile brand a little less spirited. According to the public financial report of Ford Motor Company, in the second quarter of this year, Ford’s total revenue was $38.85 billion, down from $38.92 billion in the same period last year. Net income fell to $148 million, down 86% year on year. Among them, Ford’s loss in China market reached $155 million. In addition, Ford Motor Company also said that its net income plummeted in the second quarter and was also affected by its business restructuring in Europe and South America.

  ■ Controlling cost and improving bicycle profit are the keys.

  Several families are happy and worried. In a downward trend, there are always many strong players who are growing against the trend.

  In the first fiscal quarter of fiscal year 2020 (April-June), Toyota Motor’s net profit attributable to ordinary shareholders was 682.974 billion yen, a year-on-year increase of 3.91%; Operating income was 7.65 trillion yen, a year-on-year increase of 3.85%. 

  The increase in profit is mainly due to Toyota’s good sales performance at home and abroad in the first half of the year. In the first half of this year, Toyota’s sales in Japan increased by 3.6% year-on-year to 1.212 million units, and overseas sales increased by 1.5% year-on-year to 4.1 million units.

  At the same time, cost control and high bicycle profit have also become effective ways for car companies to achieve profitability.

  In the first half of this year, the cumulative global sales volume of Volkswagen Group was 5,365,300 vehicles, down 2.8% year-on-year. Despite the decline in overall car sales, Volkswagen Group still achieved a substantial increase in profit value, driven by the SUV with higher profit margin of Volkswagen brand and the increase in sales of Porsche brand. The report shows that the sales revenue of the Volkswagen Group in the first half of the year reached 125.2 billion euros, a year-on-year increase of 4.9%; Operating profit was 9 billion euros, a year-on-year increase of 10.3%.

  GM, on the other hand, relied on cost control to achieve a steady performance in the second quarter. With the strong performance of the North American market and effective cost control, GM achieved steady performance in the second quarter: the company’s net income reached $36.1 billion during the reporting period; Among them, the net profit reached 2.4 billion US dollars, up 1.6% year-on-year; Diluted earnings per share was $1.66. In addition, GM said that the measures to improve cost efficiency through transformation have been effective and have achieved cost savings of $1.1 billion.

  In fact, domestic car companies also try to control costs to achieve light travel. According to a recent report by Reuters, Shenlong Automobile is planning to sell its first and second factories in Wuhan, and gradually start to lay off employees, so as to put more funds into marketing.

Aborigines in the era of artificial intelligence: at the age of 3, they do spelling and learning programming at the age of 5.

  Six-year-old Bai Haoming (left) and Fu Hongzhou (right) participated in the "Intelligent Sorting Engineering Challenge" project of the Youth Robot Design Competition of the 2018 World Robotics Congress. Jess Zhang/photo

  The 2018 World Robotics Congress held not long ago attracted many young people to visit and participate in the competition, and the exhibits related to children’s services naturally became the focus of everyone’s attention. In this field, many exhibitors set the function of "programming" as the key word to attract consumers, "All children in the future must be able to program".

  Nowadays, "programming" is considered as one of the entry points for children to adapt to the era of artificial intelligence. Several parents interviewed randomly by reporters at the scene also said in unison: "Even if children don’t work in artificial intelligence in the future, they need to know something about robots and programming."

  "Artificial intelligence starts with dolls"

  In the youth robot design competition held during the conference, two small figures in the "Intelligent Sorting Engineering Challenge" area were particularly eye-catching.

  The fleshy hands are as long as the mouse, and the hem of the T-shirts distributed uniformly dangles at the knees. Six-year-old Bai Haoming and Fu Hongzhou are the youngest players in this project, from Shenzhen. They have entered the threshold of programming.

  "Let them do it, and don’t expect to get any rankings." Bai Haoming’s mother clung to the baffle in the field and leaned into half of her body to look at the child’s operation. She thought this was the simplest event in this competition.

  In fact, this is not the case. Bai Hao-ming and Fu Hongzhou need to suck up 10 building blocks of different colors through the mechanical arm within the specified time and carry them to the area corresponding to the color. In this process, the two will cooperate with the debugging of the mechanical arm and programming to complete a series of links such as moving the mechanical arm to a designated position, accurately identifying the color, absorbing the wood blocks, and transporting the wood blocks to other designated areas.

  As expected, their first attempt failed, and the green block was put in the red area. "No, no! Write the data again! " Bai Haoming’s mother is more anxious than her children.

  Six-year-old Fu Hongzhou sat in front of the computer, but he was very calm. His little hand rested slowly on the mouse, and Bai Hao-ming also gathered in front of the screen. They discussed dragging the program module to reprogram, and it was soon finished. After restarting, the green building blocks were successfully transported to the corresponding green area.

  In fact, when Bai Haoming was five years old, he could command the airplane model to start the propeller through computer programming. His mother was convinced that "artificial intelligence starts with dolls". Designated robot platform for this competition — — A certain type of mechanical arm is worth "20,000 to 30,000 yuan", and Bai Haoming’s mother thinks this kind of investment is very worthwhile.

  Fu Hongzhou’s father also thinks that "the future must be the era of artificial intelligence". He asks his children to practice programming once or twice a week for no more than two hours at a time.

  Encouraging children to learn programming is not only the choice of the above two parents. Yi Hui, a robot training coach at the scene of the Youth Robot Design Competition, told reporters that a training institution where he works has become more and more popular in the past three years: some 3-year-old children come to cultivate their structure and sense of space through spelling exercises; Learn simple programming at the age of 5 to 6, and master simple physics knowledge after preschool; After the age of 8, you can usually start to contact relatively complicated modular programming.

  This time, Tian Tian, the little player he brought, began to contact the mosaic robot at the age of 3, and at the age of 5, he was able to design simple games through modular programming. Tian Tian’s father believes that the simplified programming that he is exposed to now will be helpful for children to write code programming in the future. "Although the input forms are different, the logic is the same."

  However, he believes that for Xiao Tiantian, how much knowledge is acquired is second, and what is more important is the shaping of soft power. Tian Tian’s father thinks that the child’s patience has been "greatly improved" and "he can analyze the reasons himself in the face of failure".

  What kind of education scheme is suitable for you?

  In fact, not only in the competition, but also in the Expo and product exhibition area of the World Robotics Congress, "programming" is also the key word in the hearts of parents and children who come to visit.

  Mr. Liu from Beijing and his 6-year-old son Yangyang stopped in front of a programming robot for just over ten minutes, and Yangyang learned how to make the robot parrot dance by using action memory programming.

  Mr. Liu introduced that Yangyang was able to put together hundreds of models at the age of four, so this time he bought a programming robot worth 1299 yuan for his son without hesitation. I believe programming is not difficult for his son.

  "Artificial intelligence will be very popular in the future, and he should be exposed to the development trend of society." Mr. Liu said.

  Judging from the popularity of on-site programming robots, Mr. Liu seems to have spoken the voice of most parents. Exhibitors don’t need to elaborate on the significance of programming to children’s development. As long as they put out their own products, they will be quickly surrounded by a wave of teenagers and parents.

  The reporter noted that in order to meet the needs of children, parents, schools and training institutions, many related enterprises are actively developing educational programs for "cultivating aborigines in the era of artificial intelligence", and the concepts and characteristics of each supplier are different.

  Taking a certain type of programming robot selected by Yangyang children as an example, simple programming learning can be carried out after the robot components and motors are inserted. The programming methods include "action memory programming" and "graphical programming".

  According to reports, teaching material packages including such programming robots have landed in several children’s palaces and primary schools around the country. Guo Zuyun, an information technology teacher at the experimental primary school in Kunming Economic and Technological Development Zone, is one of the users. He introduced that in order to be in line with the era of artificial intelligence, the school built a new function room and introduced a number of engineering intelligence teaching materials. "There are more than 900 people in the school, and more than 200 people have chosen my class. However, due to limited conditions, we only recruited 35 people. "

  In the mobile game My World: Education Edition, which is popular among teenagers, children can cultivate computational thinking through visual programming. It is understood that teachers in more than 100 countries around the world are promoting classroom innovation and collaboration through this game.

  People are exploring various possibilities of artificial intelligence education. Material packages, laboratories, interdisciplinary educational research and practice platforms, mobile games or public welfare activities, and various educational programs are dazzling. At present, what remains unchanged is that "programming" has become the intersection of various schemes.

  "The traditional concept is that learning programming is to be a code farmer in the future, but it is not. The future world will be a digital world, and writing code may be as natural and necessary as writing articles and learning languages today. " An industry insider in the field of artificial intelligence education told reporters. (China Youth Daily Zhongqing Online Reporter Jess Zhang)

Using mobile APP to spread obscene articles for profit was solved. The suspect taught himself to develop mobile phone applications.

  CCTV News:Not long ago, the Netan detachment of Zhoushan Public Security Bureau of Zhejiang Province and the Cultural Comprehensive Law Enforcement Detachment of Zhoushan Cultural Bureau cracked a case of spreading obscene articles for profit by using mobile APP, which was listed as a case supervised by the National Leading Group Office for Combating Pornography, and arrested Li, the producer of the mobile APP of Fast Fish Cloud Broadcasting, Yu, Shi and Ren, and found more than 7 million obscene video files in the mobile APP of Fast Fish Cloud Broadcasting.

  In July this year, Liu Haibo, a grass-roots grid member of Zhoushan New Town Management Committee, found in his daily visit that many people were watching obscene videos using a mobile APP called "Fast Fish Cloud Broadcasting", which aroused his vigilance.

  After mastering and fixing the relevant evidence, the Cultural Comprehensive Law Enforcement Detachment of Zhoushan Municipal Bureau of Culture immediately launched the joint disposal mechanism for eliminating pornography, provided relevant clues to the Netan Detachment of Zhoushan Public Security Bureau, and cooperated with the Netan Detachment to investigate related cases.

  Access to overseas obscene websites is hidden.

  After receiving the relevant clues, the Netan detachment of Zhoushan Public Security Bureau immediately filed an investigation. During the investigation, it was found that the "Fast Fish Cloud Broadcasting" APP was extremely confusing and concealed in the process of spreading obscene pornographic videos.

  The police investigation found that the main page of the "Fast Fish Cloud Broadcasting" App is no different from the normal film and television App. Users can watch a large number of legal film and television works as long as they install it, but when they click on the sub-pages such as classification and search on the page, obscene pornographic video pages will pop up on the mobile phone. By purchasing the registration code and registering as a member, you can browse and watch these obscene video contents.

  Gu Zhoutao, Deputy Team Leader of Netan Detachment of Zhoushan Public Security Bureau: "The criminal suspect made this mobile APP, and its communication route is mainly through his QQ group, WeChat circle of friends, or website. To watch obscene videos, you must first get an invitation code on your mobile phone and send a part of the invitation code to the card issuing website. "

  After careful investigation, the police found that most of the registered users of this mobile APP purchased the "registration code" from a place in Huanggang, Hubei Province, and there are more than 1,500 registered members from all over the country, and the actual owner and maintainer of this mobile App is Li, a native of Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province. Li made the "Fast Fish Cloud Broadcasting" App, rented the Internet data cloud to set up a server, and finally accessed more than a dozen overseas obscene websites and more than 7 million obscene video resources.

  Through further investigation, the police also found that 16 other people, such as Shimou from Yuyao, Ningbo and Renmou from Deqing, Huzhou, also bought apps from Li or purchased obscene video resources to access their own apps, and then spread them for profit. After mastering sufficient evidence, Zhoushan Public Security Bureau police rushed to Xuzhou, Jiangsu, Huanggang, Hubei, Yuyao, Zhejiang, Huzhou and other places, and successfully arrested suspects such as Li, Shi and Ren with the cooperation of local police.

  Self-taught mobile phone application development is involved in pornography and is in jail.

  Different from the previously uncovered cases of spreading obscene articles on the Internet, the case of "Fast Fish Cloud Broadcasting" spreading obscene articles for profit by using mobile App has the characteristics of fast spread, wide spread and large audience. The four people involved in "Fast Fish Cloud Broadcasting" arrested by the public security organs are all very young, and three of them are post-90 s. What is even more surprising is that Li, the developer of the mobile APP "Fast Fish Cloud Broadcasting", has only a first-year junior high school education.

  Gu Zhoutao, deputy detachment leader of the Netan detachment of Zhoushan Public Security Bureau, said that it is difficult to block obscene videos spread by the "Fast Fish Cloud Broadcasting" mobile APP.

  Gu Zhoutao, Deputy Team Leader of Netan Detachment of Zhoushan Public Security Bureau: "This software is very concealed. The cases encountered in the past spread through the cloud disk and are easily blocked by the public security organs. Connected through the mobile APP, it is very concealed and difficult to block, so these obscene video data quickly spread to the whole country. "

  The registration code used by registered members of this APP is also very cheap online. The registration code is divided into day card, month card, half-year card, year card, permanent card, etc. The online price of permanent card is 98 yuan, and the cheapest day card only needs 2 yuan. From March this year, the "Fast Fish Cloud Broadcasting" went online for only six months until the incident, tens of thousands of people across the country have registered as members, and the relevant personnel have illegally made more than 100,000 yuan.

  Because of his poor family, Li began to work after dropping out of school in the first grade of junior high school, and later taught himself the mobile APP method online. In the face of police interrogation, Li realized that his mistakes were irreparable. At present, four suspects have been transferred for prosecution.

Sweep Meizhou away with one foot in the Super League? The last round of Nantong Zhiyun still needs to go all out

Special correspondent Jiang Hai reports On October 29th, the penultimate round of the Super League in 2023 started at the same time. Nantong Zhiyun, who ranked second in the standings, challenged Meizhou Hakka away. In the end, the team scored 3 points with a score of 4-0. With the last round left in the league, the points rose to the penultimate third, beating Dalian people, and the final round of the game would be successful in relegation.

After losing to Shanghai Shenhua 0-1 at home in the last round of league tournament, the relegation situation of Nantong Zhiyun was once in jeopardy. In the last two rounds, they will play against Meizhou Hakka and Tianjin Jinmen Tiger away from home. Even if they all win, they also need to look at the face of their relegation opponent Dalian. Moreover, in terms of mutual record with Dalian people, Nantong Zhiyun is the main loser and does not have an advantage. Therefore, as long as Dalian people all win in the last two games, Nantong Zhiyun will get whatever results in the last two rounds.

Therefore, the game against Meizhou Hakka is a "can’t afford to lose" final for Nantong Zhiyun, and the team has suffered five consecutive defeats before, and it is urgent to get points to improve the morale of the team. Fortunately, Nantong Zhiyun started very well, and Jiang Zilei broke the deadlock in the 12th minute of the game. In the following game, Nantong Zhiyun played smoothly: in the 64th minute, Castillo made meritorious deeds, 2-0, expanding the lead; In the 89th minute, Morelato scored a goal, 3-0; In the second minute of stoppage time, Zheng Haogan scored a single goal after breaking the ball and sealed the victory 4-0.

While winning this game, Nantong Zhiyun also gave Meizhou Hakka the first defeat in the last five rounds. At the same time, Nantong Zhiyun also took the fate of relegation into his own hands. Generally speaking, the performance of Nantong Zhiyun team in the Super League this season is not ideal. They need to reflect on their own problems and find a solution to them.

Before the current round against Meizhou Hakka, Nantong Zhiyun scored 19 points with Dalian People’s Team, but due to the disadvantage of winning and losing, Nantong Zhiyun was in the relegation zone. At the same time of this game against Meizhou Hakka, Dalian people challenged Qingdao Manatee away. Compared with Nantong Zhiyun’s away victory, Dalian people scored two goals in a row when they were 0-2 behind, but they failed to beat their opponents in the away game and only got 1 point. However, Dalian people’s fighting capacity in this game was admirable. However, they lost their relegation advantage to Nantong Zhiyun without getting 3 points from Manatee. After the end of this round of competition, the championship suspense of the Super League has been revealed, leaving only one suspense of relegation. In addition to the relegated Shenzhen team, another relegation team will be created between Nantong Zhiyun and Dalian people. The away win of this game also allows Nantong Zhiyun to temporarily occupy the relegation advantage.

In the final round, Nantong Zhiyun played against Tianjin Jinmen Tiger at home, while Dalian people played against Shanghai Harbour, which has won the championship at home. Holding a 2-point lead, for Nantong Zhiyun, the last game must be won. If you can get 3 points, you don’t have to look at other people’s faces, and you can successfully avoid relegation at home. However, if you draw or lose, you need to look at the result of the game between Dalian people and Shanghai Harbour. At present, it can only be said that Nantong Zhiyun has left one foot in the Super League next year, but the team still cannot relax its vigilance until the end of the league.

After the game, David, coach of Nantong Zhiyun team, said: "As we expected, today is a difficult game. The opponents will not let you win the game easily. They played with the strongest lineup. We also carried out the counter-attack tactics arranged before the game well, and it is also very important that we didn’t concede a goal today. The opponent is a very strong team, so these three points are also very valuable to us. Our players have been fighting like warriors. In the last game, we need to fulfill our promises to our fans, win the game, and achieve the goal of relegation. For fans, it is too little to say thank you, and they are supporting us both at home and away. "

As far as Dalian people are concerned, the team has been pushed to the edge of the cliff. Even if the team beats Shanghai Harbour at home in the last round, it may not be able to avoid relegation. While Nantong Zhiyun has the initiative, he still has to go all out in the face of Tianjin Jinmen Tiger, who has nothing to ask for. As the "only seedling" of Jiangsu football in the Super League, Nantong Zhiyun’s game this season has gone through a rough time. Now it can regain its relegation advantage. The team should go all out to draw a satisfactory end to this season with a home victory, and at the same time let Jiangsu football remain in the top leagues in China.

Karamaili, located in the east of Junggar Basin, is the native place of wild wild horse Platts, the largest wild habitat and breeding ground in the world. In addition to the rare wild horses of Platts, which are rarer than giant pandas, there are also rare and endangered wild animals such as Mongolian wild donkey, goose throat antelope, argali, lynx, red fox and sand fox, which is a concentrated distribution area of ungulate wild animals in low-altitude desert in China. It has many types of desert vegetation, such as Haloxylon ammodendron and Calligonum mongolicum, and is a typical representative of desert ecosystem in temperate arid regions of the world. There is also a unique natural landscape of clastic rock landform represented by Yadan landform in arid areas.
It is understood that there are 392 species of wild plants and 260 species of wild animals in Karamay.

In April, 2022, the application for the creation of Kalamaili National Park was approved. The creation area consists of three protected areas: Kalamaili Mountain ungulate wildlife nature reserve, Qitai Silicified Wood-Dinosaur National Geopark in Xinjiang and Qitai Silicified Wood desert park in Xinjiang.
Today, Karamay has been upgraded from the traditional "human eye view" to the "celestial eye view", and it has achieved "global patrol and adjustment at any time" from "local patrol". Heavy-duty pan/tilt, infrared camera, unmanned aerial vehicle and satellite communication make it full of scientific and technological sense.

Why did the author of the original novel "The Beginnings" fall on the "satyr" and cyber violence?

A 15-episode lightweight online drama "The Beginning" exploded at the beginning of the year, boosting confidence in the Chinese drama market in 2022. During the Spring Festival holiday, the popularity has risen instead of falling, and topics such as "Aunt Pot", taking the bus and ringing tones of Cannon’s mobile phone have become the "hard currency" for gathering and socializing with high mention rate. Recently, the Beijing Youth Daily reporter interviewed the author of the original novel "The Beginning" and the screenwriter of the TV series Prayer Jun, looking for answers to the topics that the audience is still discussing.

  Why did you choose the bus bombing?

  Beiqing Daily: Please tell us about the creation process of Beginnings, such as "infinite flow"? Why did you choose the bus bombing?

  Prayer Jun: Over the years, I have seen many videos about "bus accidents" on the Internet, which have had a great impact on me. When I first saw this, I thought, why can’t anyone stand up and stop these tragedies like those heroes in film and television works? Later, I began to imagine what I could do if I were on these buses. In these associations, I began to think again, are my ideas reasonable? Who will be on the bus together? Can these people help me? In the process of this series of thinking, verification and rethinking, my inspiration sparked and I drew up the outline of the beginning.

  The biggest difficulty is how to balance the dramatic and logical contradictions in the novel at the same time, and how to set the whole progressive process from the first cycle to the end of the cycle. For example, this bus explosion, at first, no one knew it was an explosion. It was only after the protagonist group got more information through the circulation that it changed from a "traffic accident" to a "criminal case", from "investigating the real murderer" to "locking the real murderer" and then to "finding the hidden plot". These are all the logical and logical turns in advance. So in order to "break the game", I began to add the element of "time cycle" to the beginning. In the written stage, "infinite flow" has become the most conspicuous label of "Beginning".

  Beiqing Daily: After watching several episodes, the most attractive content of Beginnings no longer relies on "surrealism", but returns to down-to-earth reality. Please tell us about the creations of ordinary passengers such as Lao Jiao and Lu Di, and what intentions have you placed on them?

  Prayer Jun: At first, I modeled passengers according to two possibilities: quantitative and indefinite. I will definitely take action when I encounter danger, that is, quantitative. For example, the character "Lao Jiao" is in the quagmire of life, but he will still be "courageous" again and again. As for the role of "Lu Di", he is a young man who loves cats with social phobia. As long as he is aroused to identify with his own group, he will change from "variable" to "quantitative". Any passenger in the car can change from "variable" to "quantitative" as long as they can gain their "trust". "Trust" is the cornerstone of success. After that, I began to think, what is the difference between people? I began to try to answer this question through the way of "control group". For example, the old coke "Jiao Xiangrong" and the driver "Wang Xingde" are actually some kind of echo and contrast. In the car, the driving force behind Wang Xingde’s "crime" is his daughter; Drive Lao Jiao "The driving force behind "being brave" is also for my daughter. These two are both fathers and daughters, but they have made different choices, and these two different choices represent different human nature. Another example is "Lu Di", a secondary group that "speaks at once", and the police who "don’t believe" no matter how many times you say it, are also a control group. At the beginning of shaping, these passengers not only have the common ground of being ordinary people, but also represent the thinking mode and life experience of some groups in society. Everyone can play his role at a specific time. No matter how ordinary a person is, once he makes an extraordinary right choice, he is a "hero". This is what I want to express most when I shape them.

  What are the differences in characterization?

  Beiqing Daily: "Aunt Guo" went out of the circle and became a new topic. What experience can you summarize in your resumption?

  Prayer Jun: Apart from Tao Yinghong’s complete portrayal, the actor’s understanding and reinterpretation of this role is the real reason for his success. No matter in the original work or at the beginning of the script creation, the image of Tao Yinghong is "numb" and "crazy", and she is a "broken person" after the collapse. Now the "Aunt Pot" on the screen is a process of remoulding according to her own understanding after thinking by the actor Liu Dan. Her persistence makes Tao Yinghong not only the "injurer" of the "broken", but also allows every audience to see the dignity, preciseness and love for her daughter that Tao Yinghong had before the "broken", which makes her identity as both "injurer" and "victim" more convincing.

  Beiqing Daily: It is reported that the names of young CP Li Shiqing and Xiao Heyun coincide with Liu Yuxi’s Autumn Poems. What do these two characters imply?

  Prayer Jun: Yes, the names of Li Shiqing and Xiao Heyun are taken from "Autumn Ci". This is a poem I like very much, because its artistic conception is broad and lofty, which is in line with the minds of two young people I originally wanted to shape. "Poetry" is romantic. Li’s poetry is not in contact with too much society. Her romance can make her tolerant, kind and empathetic. "Crane Cloud" is high-spirited, eager to soar, and has the potential of "blockbuster". In addition, "A crane in a clear sky rows clouds, which leads poetry to Bixiao" is also a cycle from beginning to end, and a crane cloud named Xiao (Xiao) is embedded.

  Interpretation and speculation of hidden plots are endless.

  Beiqing Daily: The final case "bottom" fell on the bus "pervert" and cyber violence. How did these two ideas come into being?

  Prayer Jun: As a woman and a mother, I have been thinking about how to teach my daughter to "protect" herself and learn how to "ask for help" when she meets something wrong in this complicated world. The purpose of designing the plot of "pervert" is to make readers and audiences understand that different people have different degrees of tolerance by comparing the different reactions of two girls with different personalities, Wang Mengmeng and Li Shiqing. Maybe what seems like a big deal to you will have completely different results for people with different degrees of tolerance.

  The element of "cyber violence" is more about my thinking and reflection on my own experience over the years. Do people who cause "cyber violence" have to "harm" something in the first place? After thinking about these problems, I stayed away from the internet and warned myself that writers should speak with their works. It is these feelings and reflections that made me shape the plot of "cyber violence" in "The Beginning" and the "beginning" that made Tao Yinghong’s family "the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop".

  Beiqing Daily: This drama has caused netizens to chase the drama, and various interpretations and speculations about the cycle, details and hidden plots have emerged one after another. Which ones can you come forward for official certification?

  Prayer Jun: Many details have been guessed by readers, and I am very touched. For example, Tao Yinghong was going to die on the day of her daughter’s death, but because Tao Yinghong was testing detonators in the garage and caused a fire, the fire department paid attention to it, so the fire department began to check the garage. This fire caused the old coke to be retired, and Wang Xingde, who was working normally, was caught off guard by Tao Yinghong’s temporary boarding. In the original plan of the husband and wife, there should be no one in the car that day, just taking the bomb to the designated place to die.

  I also saw the speculation about officer Zhang. Officer Zhang did not enter the cycle. To enter the cycle, he must meet several requirements. First, he had to fall asleep in the car (there was a path to enter the cycle), second, he had to die in the car (once existed normally in the cycle), and then he had to survive in the cycle (left the cycle). Lao Zhang and others in the car did not meet these conditions. He will let it go lightly, just based on his own experience and the normal reaction of a police officer without evidence. Li Shiqing and Xiao Heyun’s "catching the pervert out of the car" is the beginning of Xiao Heyun’s cycle, and it is also the only possibility to turn Tao Yinghong’s "variable" into "quantitative". In Tao Yinghong’s subconscious, she hoped that her daughter would be as strong as the poetry she resisted in the car, and she could resist and even subdue the pervert.

  Beiqing Daily: What impact will the success of the film and television of Beginnings have on your future creation?

  Prayer Jun: First of all, it has strengthened my confidence in continuing to create "stories of ordinary people". Before I wrote the Kai series, my famous works, Mulan Without Eldest Brother and Everyone Loves Ma Wencai, were either emperors or princes, or geniuses and heroes. When I wrote the Kai series, I was in my thirties, and it was a transition period when I was thinking about what I could leave for the world. The Beginnings, the Lottery and the Opening of the Kai series were actually stories about how ordinary people broke the shackles and completed their self-growth. In fact, this theme is not the mainstream of online novels, and it lacks a sense of coolness. I have never known whether my "transformation" is valuable, and now I have at least taken a reassurance. Good works, in fact, the theme is not important, the most important thing is to tell a good story.

There’s a reason for playing billiards too badly. The exclusive cheats teach you how to clear the table with one shot.

"Source: Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences"
Whether table tennis is good or not depends on fate, and some people believe in "making great efforts to make miracles".
Some people think that through constant practice, they can naturally master those wonderful hitting angles and achieve perfection.
Do you know how hard I work?
But in fact, the way of hitting the ball and the trajectory of the table tennis game contain rich knowledge of mathematics and physics. This knowledge controls the trend of table tennis, and you can also become a master of table tennis by mastering these theoretical knowledge.
Essential knowledge 1: sine theorem
If we regard point A as a white ball, point B as a target ball and point C as a hole, how can we achieve the goal?
At this time, understanding the sine theorem can help you find the best goal plan. The formula of sine theorem is as follows:
In this formula, r is the radius of the circumscribed circle of the plane triangle ABC.
Essential knowledge 2: cosine theorem
Similarly, in any triangle in the above picture, the rational use of cosine theorem formula can also help you find the best scheme to hit the ball B into the hole C with the white ball A.
The cosine theorem is as follows:
Essential knowledge 3: reflection theorem
As shown in the above figure, red is the initial motion line of the ball, blue is the reflection line of the ball, the gray rectangle can be regarded as the edge library of the table, and the purple midline is the normal vector in the middle of the interface, so the following hypothetical figure can be obtained:
Through this reflection pattern hypothesis, we can better imagine the trajectory of the ball after hitting the library.
Essential knowledge 4: collision principle
① Frontal collision (completely elastic)
After the collision of two objects, the kinetic energy and momentum of the system are conserved, and there is no additional energy conversion.
The conclusion is:When the two balls have the same mass, the speed of the two balls will be exchanged after a completely elastic ideal frontal collision.
② frontal collision (totally inelastic)
Inelastic collision means that a part of the kinetic energy of objects is converted into internal energy before and after collision, while completely inelastic refers to converting kinetic energy into internal energy as much as possible, that is, two objects move at the same speed together.
③ Actual collision
The actual collision is a mixture of completely elastic and completely inelastic collision. If the velocity of the two balls is defined as V1,1, V2, 1 after a complete elastic collision; Before the collision, the speed of the two balls was V1,0, V2,0, and the recovery coefficient of the resin material used in billiards was k (the recovery coefficient of good materials was k≈1), so there were:
When k=0, it is completely inelastic collision, and when k=1, it is completely elastic collision. For an actual collision problem, the transformation of velocity and internal energy after two balls collide can be expressed by k, which is specifically expressed as:
In addition, it includes image vector decomposition; General situation and special situation of two-dimensional collision; Rigid body dynamics; Rotational inertia and rotational energy: rotational inertia of homogeneous sphere, law of rotation; Friction: a series of necessary knowledge points such as static friction, sliding friction and rolling friction …
Aiming technique
After a long and boring basic theoretical knowledge, you must be a patient and persevering table tennis enthusiast, and you also have the theoretical basis for learning more skills. Then if you want to master the secret of how to hit the ball in actual combat, aiming technology is the main content to be learned next.
I believe everyone understands a truth. When we observe an object, the closer it is to us, the bigger it will look. If it is farther away from us, it will look smaller. In fact, the actual size of the object has not changed. This is the so-called visual effect.
The visual effect will affect our judgment on the size of the cue ball, thus affecting our aiming angle.
So when we aim at close range, we will subjectively think that the ball looks big, while it looks small at a distance.
Then there are two problems that need to be discussed: first, the influence of the cue ball getting bigger on the thickness of the shot; Secondly, how much will the distance between the center of the cue ball and the goal point and the center of the target ball make the cue ball look bigger?
First of all, we will explain the impact of hitting thickness after the cue ball becomes bigger as shown in the above figure, which shows the maximum overlapping thickness of the two balls, the big gray circle is the size of the cue ball after it becomes bigger, the radius is, the small circle is the original size of the cue ball, the red ball is the size of the target ball, the radius is, and the maximum overlapping radius of the small gray circle and the red circle is, so there are:
The second question has the following explanation about the distance between the cue ball and each ball center. As shown in the above figure, D represents the distance between the cue ball and the goal point, and the distance D0 between the cue ball center and the target ball center, and the angles α and β, then the relationship between the variables can be obtained as follows:
Walking technique
Finally, let’s talk about the topic that everyone is most interested in, which is also the advanced skill of table tennis game-walking technique. Walking technology is to control the motion track of the cue ball by hitting different positions of the cue ball.
0:Center pole/fixed pole, ideally, the cue ball will only slide without any rotation.
1:High/heel/topspin, cue ball rotates forward, which has following effect after collision.
2:Low shot/shrinking shot/backspin ball, cue ball rotates backward and travels backward after collision.
3&4:Side plugs, 3 and 4 represent the left and right respectively, and the cue ball rotates to the right and left respectively after the shot, which can change the rebound angle of the cue ball after hitting the library.
5:Left plug, the effect is the superposition of high pole and left plug.
6:Upper right plug, the effect is the superposition of high pole and right plug.
7:Left lower plug, the effect is the superposition of low rod and left plug.
8:Lower right plug, the effect is the superposition of low rod and right plug.
A:Stearns followed, and the distance followed after the cue ball hit the target was shorter than that followed by the high pole.
C:Stern retreats, and the distance that the cue ball retreats after hitting the target is shorter than that of the low pole.
B&D:Stensey, the cue ball changes direction after hitting the target.
By hitting the above position of the cue ball, the corresponding cue ball movement effect can be achieved.
After learning so many high-end knowledge and formulas, let’s get rid of the old concept of "making great efforts to make miracles". Many people always keep the same strength to hit the ball, which is not desirable. The strength of hitting the ball should be changed at any time with different situations. This requires long-term practice to accurately grasp the strength of the shot that should be adopted at different angles.
The above is the explanation of the formula and technology related to this table tennis game. Dear table tennis lovers, remember the formula and practice hard. "Clear the table with one shot" is not a dream!

Eddie Peng Yuyan: After filming The Rescue, I don’t even want to swim now.

  The film The Rescue is the fourth cooperation between Lin Chaoxian and Eddie Peng Yuyan. In every previous cooperation, both of them constantly challenged the limits with the support of each other. When they co-produced Guild Wars for the first time, Eddie Peng Yuyan was trained as a professional boxer, and it took him three months to learn Thai boxing, lock technique and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. When shooting against professional boxers, I hope to "convince the audience". In the second collaboration of Breaking the Wind, Eddie Peng Yuyan participated in training for four months, and during the training and filming process, he rode over 110,000 kilometers, almost three times around the earth. In the third collaboration with operation mekong, the challenge between Lin Chaoxian and Eddie Peng Yuyan rose to a new height again. When shooting, Lin Chaoxian was even accidentally bitten by a six-inch centipede, while Eddie Peng Yuyan was fighting with a real gun, and every action instruction was close to reality. This time in The Rescue, they will challenge the "water play" which is recognized as difficult to shoot all over the world. The Rescue is the first Chinese-language film about maritime rescue, which is based on real maritime rescue events. Eddie Peng Yuyan said that the director has changed from "Devil Forest" and "Explosion Forest" to "Monster Forest".

  As soon as the director looked for me, he came to shoot.

  Q: Why did you take on The Rescue? The shooting conditions are very difficult. What mental preparations did you make before taking the show?

  Eddie Peng Yuyan: Director Lin Chaoxian came to me as soon as he asked me. I knew that filming the director’s play would be particularly interesting and enjoyable, and of course there would be certain challenges and difficulties. That’s why I wanted to shoot the director’s play, so I was ready long ago. I just didn’t expect that I was not prepared enough this time. Every day when I arrived at the scene (shooting for 8 months), it was a variety of difficulties, which was very challenging, and it was an unprecedented surprise both physically and mentally.

  Q: You play the captain of the Maritime Secret Service. How much do you know about the real salvage team?

  Eddie Peng Yuyan: My name is Gao Qian in the play, and I am the captain of the Maritime Secret Service. He is a man with great courage, experience and a strong sense of responsibility. He has performed many tasks and saved many people.

  Before shooting, the director showed us some information about the rescuers, so we would know their lives and train with them. We were like friends. They all look like ordinary people, but when they receive the task, they are completely different. Once when they were on a mission, I followed them. You can’t imagine these ordinary people hanging on the helicopter, and you will feel as if they were in another world. As salvage team members, they need extra concentration to save another life, because sometimes, you have to give up something to save other people’s lives. You can only save two people in the water for three to five minutes, but there are twenty or thirty people around. What do you do? This is what they have to face. They have to face the human tragedy every day when they go to work, and they have to be a normal person when they get home. If they don’t have faith, they can’t do it. This is what the director wants to talk about in this play. We also experienced it ourselves and found out how great they are.

  Rescuers are giving "hope of life" to others. They are faced with the tragedy of life. Without faith and firm heart, there is no way to meet and complete the task. In this profession, they must have enough courage and faith to forget themselves and their own lives to save others.

  Q: Did you find it challenging to play your father for the first time in The Rescue?

  Eddie Peng Yuyan: I think it is very difficult for the director to give me this role. The director is very interesting. He knows that I am a single-parent family, so it takes me a lot of time to convince myself that there is no father in my life. Thank you very much for giving me this role. The actor who plays my son is very smart and cute. It is natural and great to act with him. Because the child is very real, he can recite his lines by heart and act naturally. I also hope to keep this innocence and nature when acting with him. Directors and screenwriters have done a lot of homework in advance to understand the lives of rescuers. Family is also very important for rescuers, which should be an important reason to support them to be so brave and responsible. Maybe everyone thinks this is an action movie, but I think it is actually a drama full of love.

  Being abused by all kinds,

  Every time you go into the water, you should be mentally prepared.

  Q: What scenes impressed you the most in this shooting?

  Eddie Peng Yuyan: There are many scenes that impressed me the most, usually the first time is the most unforgettable. For example, the first time I was blown up by fire, I was blown up in a fire of 600 to 700 degrees Celsius, and I thought it was all right several times. As a result, I was going to be blown up by water later. After the explosion, the director said excitedly, "Eddie was finally blown up by me with water." Before, I didn’t know that water could be used to fry people, but the next day after the frying, it was hung in the air for a day, until it was almost vomiting. But it’s also quite enjoyable, because the real shooting is hung on the helicopter, and the height is very high, so it’s also unforgettable. I thought it was all right when I came down, and then I had to flood with fire, and then I flooded with water, so this time it was all kinds of experiences, basically all kinds of "abuse". This is the director’s style, and he just likes to "abuse" artists. But in fact, actors can get a lot of nutrients in this process, which is also the reason why we fall in love with the director, so that we can make a very unforgettable play.

  Q: Are all the security measures in The Rescue in place this time?

  Eddie Peng Yuyan: Yes, of course, there’s still a possibility. Although I’ve tried all the heat insulation suits, after all, the fire is at least 300 degrees Celsius, and my whole fire protection suit is on fire, but that’s what I want to feel when shooting. Although I am fully armed, I am still afraid, and I can still feel my skin burning. I am still afraid if I shoot like this every day and I am suspended every day. Moreover, when I finally get into the water, the water temperature is 6 degrees Celsius. I didn’t think I could make it. It was really cold.

  I think I am the kind of actor who is not afraid as long as I have the conditions to do it, but I really have to prepare myself before going into the water every day to make this film, because the water is too cold and there are chemicals in it. There are many things in the play that I need to take off my equipment. Without goggles, chemicals will get into my eyes and I can’t open them. Those photographers wear goggles when they go into the water. When they take them off, they can’t stand the water flowing into their eyes. They should always wash them. But I soak for more than ten hours every day, and I may stay for 15 minutes at a time, because it is too cold. Wash your eyes every day, and at the end, your eyes will always shed tears and your eyes will be red. The director is also distressed, so he will go down to accompany me. After filming this play, I don’t want to swim until now, and I feel that the quota of touching water has been used up this year.

  Q: Did you get any serious injuries this time?

  Eddie Peng Yuyan: I drowned several times. One scene that impressed me most was that I was hooked by Weiya in Mexico, and then I was pushed under the bottom of the pool. Everyone is scared, and I can’t get out. I found that the Viagra that tied me was stuck on the base of the truck, and the rescue team had not come to save me. So I thought that I would save myself first, and I would find out if I had any tools to cut the rope, but I couldn’t open it. Later, I found the hook point, untied the rope desperately, and then came out. The director kept saying, "Are you all right? Are you all right?" I said to have a rest. Because the rope was too tight to open, I tried my best to pull it. My nails were all lifted and my hands were cracked. The director was scared. This was the most horrible thing.

  Another time, I was in the water, and my oxygen bottle was running out of gas, so I could only suck eight spare cylinders. The deeper the water pressure, the more I sucked, so I had to save my eight mouths every time. Later, I took a long shot, and the rescue team had to withdraw far away. When I finished swimming back, my oxygen bottle was out of gas and I couldn’t find the spare cylinders, so I held my breath to find an exit. This kind of situation often happens. I always think I am a good swimmer, but when you are really more than ten meters underwater, it is completely different from you in the swimming pool, and we carry a lot of lead on us, so I can’t float. Coupled with the water temperature of 6℃, I feel like I am in the freezer.

  Looking back on filming the scene in the water now, I will be scared. I remember that after shooting those scenes, we went to dinner, and the local staff in Mexico would take the initiative to greet me and praise me. Friends of our rescue team told me that local rescuers felt that this was beyond the ordinary people’s ability. Many people couldn’t believe that we China actors went down to shoot by ourselves, and foreign countries went to that scene to make movies, but body double went down.

  Q: Are these self-help things in the water the methods you learned from training before filming?

  Eddie Peng Yuyan: Yes, basically. All the training was used in filming. If you don’t train well in advance, you may not dare to shoot this play. We followed the real rescue team to rescue outside. The rescue process was very hard, and we really experienced the fragility of life. There was no way to imagine the power of nature. It was really terrible. After making this film, I feel I must cherish my life.

  Q: In addition to feeling the fragility of life, what influence has it had on you after making this film?

  Eddie Peng Yuyan: Now, if I fly, I will read the rescue manual, see where the escape pod is, and see the people nearby. If something really happens, who needs help. Not before, but now it becomes instinctive, and then I will imagine the filming situation at that time. I will count several old people, and several of them came up in wheelchairs. These are all realized after I finished filming, and I can’t help but think it is quite exaggerated. As soon as I talk about the escape pod, I will think of the horrible scenes of training in the past eight months and saving people in the plane. I always tell myself that if something really happens today, I can save people.

  And director Lin Chaoxian are also teachers and friends.

  Q: This is your fourth collaboration with director Lin Chaoxian. Do you feel that his films are getting more and more difficult?

  Eddie Peng Yuyan: If the difficulty hadn’t increased, I don’t think it would be directed by Lin Chaoxian. Since I met the director, I think the greatest thing about him is that he has not changed what he likes, and he is persistent about what he likes, so when the director makes a movie with such enthusiasm, you will be infected, and then you will feel, why not do it?

  He is very good every time, and I believe he will only get better and better. This time, there are many scenes that he wants to shoot, as well as many action scenes and emotional scenes. He finished writing the characterization of the characters and then went to the scene to schedule, which he has always loved, so I think the director is very good. Moreover, the director becomes more and more challenging, because every time he shoots something new, just like this underwater shooting, we have never experienced it before, and many of them are unknown. We can only follow the camera when we go to the scene to shoot, and then we can shoot after training, and we have to rehearse before shooting. It is conceivable that many scenes are actually difficult to implement. We are all studying, and the director will give me a lot of confidence.

  Q: Is Director Lin Chaoxian different from other directors you have worked with?

  Eddie Peng Yuyan: I think it’s fate. He appreciates me and I respect him. Few actors can work with the same director four times, so it’s rare. And to some extent, there is also a habit problem. In many cases, we can omit some running-in things, which is a bit like "family". I have experienced four different lives in seven years, and these four lives are not what ordinary people can experience.

  Q: One saying is "Eddie Peng Yuyan while the iron is hot, Lin Chaoxian while the iron is hot". Do you agree with this sentence?

  Eddie Peng Yuyan: I’ve heard it (one of the leading actors with the most cooperation times, second only to Nick Cheung). When I heard this sentence before, I felt that it made our feelings smaller, as if it was only tempering, but after The Rescue, I felt that it was too accurate.

  Because I think The Rescue is really like "grinding", which is very dangerous. I have been throwing caution to the wind several times. If the director wasn’t Lin Chaoxian, I would definitely have questions. In fact, when I finished filming operation mekong, the director told me about it. At that time, I really wanted to shoot it, but I felt I needed to take a break. It happened that the director had other plays at that time, so I took a break.

  I didn’t take this play because it was dangerous, but because of the theme and role. It is much more difficult for the director to give me this role than I used to play, and it is quite different from my previous image. (Difficulty) Mainly in the emotional aspect, I play a father, and the other is the difficulty of this profession.

  The relationship between me and the director is more like mentoring. It is natural for the director to shoot a man’s play and talk about the feelings between men. I think the director has quite a pattern in dealing with this very real human nature. He sees things a lot and is very real, so I think acting his play is an immersive experience to some extent. From MMA fighting to cycling to The Rescue, I don’t need to think about how I want to act, just experience it.

  So I think the director and I are also teachers and friends. He thinks I should shoot something at my age, so he asks me to shoot it. If I haven’t reached that stage, then maybe the drama at that stage is not suitable for me. He hopes that I can grow up slowly, and to some extent I can understand what he really wants to pursue. There is a tacit understanding between us (appreciate each other), and I feel that there is such a person in the film industry, which is a kind of existence that will be infected with each other. Needless to say, I can see from what he wants to do, so I get along very well. I quite appreciate the director’s point.

  From the first collaboration of Guild Wars to now, neither the director nor I have changed. Luck is true. I never thought I could have so much cooperation with the director after Guild Wars, and he probably never thought that Eddie Peng Yuyan could still be used as an actor. The director also gives me a new thing every year or two, so I also feel lucky. The director did a very good job in his field of work, and I tried to play every role well in my own school.

  Will cherish the opportunity to cooperate with each other.

  Q: Have you ever had any conflicts or differences with the director?

  Eddie Peng Yuyan: There will definitely be some. Maybe I have some ideas about some performances. The director also knows that the actor must be given space. On this basis, I try to surprise him. When he sees it, he may think that the role I created is more three-dimensional than he imagined in his mind. The director will feel very valuable. I have also been addicted to acting, so I must trust each other.

  A person’s ideas are limited, and maybe we are infinite together. When you are willing to share your things, he will certainly share his things with you. The difference between me and the director is often that he may feel enough, and I want to give more. He will let me play and make me happy. I think one advantage of filming with the director is that what he sees will never be the same as what others see me.

  Q: If you have the chance to cooperate with the director for the fifth time, do you have a subject you want to shoot?

  Eddie Peng Yuyan: Actually, we have talked about too many topics. Every time we run and chat, we will think of a topic. He will ask me what I like, and I will ask him what I like. Before, we discussed many things like racing, action and gunfight. Usually, the director said the type he wanted to shoot, but I don’t have any restrictions on his films because I believe him.

  Q: Are you worried that the director will choose more and more actors in the future?

  Eddie Peng Yuyan: It’s possible. The director has the right to choose the actors he thinks fit. It doesn’t mean that we have to cooperate with the fifth film now that we have cooperated with four films. That’s why this is very subtle. Also, I have a choice whether to continue to cooperate with him or not. I think sometimes it’s just a magnetic field between us. We can give each other what they want, and we all know it’s hard to come by. Therefore, when shooting every play, I try my best not to regret it, because this is the only thing I can control. I will gain experience and wisdom in the process of doing my best within our control, which is very worthwhile.
