Insert the wings of science and technology into agriculture (Economic Daily, 11th edition, May 18th)

  In 2022, the No.1 Document of the Central Committee pointed out that we should vigorously promote the construction of digital villages, promote the development of smart agriculture, and promote the integrated application of information technology and agricultural machinery and agronomy. The "14th Five-Year Plan" and the outline of the long-term goal in 2035 proposed to build smart agriculture and accelerate the modernization of agriculture and rural areas. An agricultural intelligent revolution with intelligent agriculture as its manifestation has arrived. In this issue, relevant experts are invited to discuss the issue of smart agriculture.

  Moderator: Xu Xiangmei, director and researcher of the Theory Department of Economic Daily.

  Deep integration of information technology and modern agriculture

  Moderator: What are the distinctive features of smart agriculture that are different from traditional agriculture? Why should we attach great importance to smart agriculture?

  Li Daoliang (Director, National Digital Fisheries Innovation Center, China Agricultural University): Smart agriculture is the product of deep integration of new generation information technologies such as Internet of Things, cloud computing, big data, spatial information technology, blockchain and artificial intelligence, modern agricultural planting and breeding technology, and the industrial chain of agricultural products processing, circulation, trading and consumption. It is the "ecological integration" and "gene recombination" of modern information technology and the whole industrial chain of agricultural production, operation, management and service.

  The main features of smart agriculture are as follows.

  First, agricultural production factors are digitized, networked and online. Using advanced sensing, remote sensing and machine vision, the information of agricultural planting and breeding environment, the growth information of planting or breeding objects, and the working condition information of production machinery and equipment can be digitally marked and obtained. Using Internet, 5G, narrowband Internet of Things, satellite communication and other network communication technologies, remote digital information scheduling is realized.

  Second, the regulation and decision-making of agricultural production process is cloud-based and intelligent. Based on the massive data of the production process, we make full use of big data and artificial intelligence technology, and process the data with the help of agricultural cloud computing platform to generate the optimal growth regulation model of agricultural animals and plants, so as to realize the intelligent regulation of the whole production process.

  The third is the synergy of the whole link, whole process and whole chain of agriculture. Through the agricultural cloud computing platform, the distributed agricultural production system, logistics system, trading system and consumption system are connected into an organic whole, so that agricultural production, operation, management and consumption can be optimized in coordination with the main work.

  The fourth is the credit and safety of agricultural management. All the data of agricultural production, circulation, transaction and consumption are uploaded and stored in the blockchain shared distributed database through the blockchain decentralization technology, forming an unbreakable account book that can be consulted by consumers and buyers, making agricultural management credit and safe.

  The significance and function of developing intelligent agriculture are mainly reflected in the following aspects.

  Promote the conservation and efficient utilization of resources and the green development of agricultural science. Through the Internet of Things, big data, artificial intelligence, robots, intelligent equipment and other technologies and breeding techniques, planting and breeding operations can get rid of the natural environment and human dependence, and build an agricultural production automation system that integrates environmental physiological monitoring, crop model analysis and precise adjustment, so as to improve labor production efficiency, land output rate and resource utilization rate. Through digital measurement and control, we can meet the needs of crop growth, ensure resource conservation and avoid environmental pollution, and realize the green development of agriculture. At present, agricultural developed countries have realized that one person cultivates 5,000 mu of land, one person produces 500 tons of vegetables annually, one person grows 1 million potted flowers, one person raises 200,000 chickens and produces 180,000 eggs a day, and one person raises 10,000 pigs, 200 cows and 100 tons of fish, completely changing the problems faced by traditional agriculture with extensive management, weak competitiveness and low resource utilization rate.

  Promote agricultural standardized production and ensure "green and safety on the tip of the tongue". Real-time dynamic monitoring of soil, atmospheric environment and water environment through digital, networked and intelligent equipment to make it meet the environmental standards of agricultural production; All aspects of production can also be produced by intelligent equipment according to certain technical and economic standards and specifications; Through digital and intelligent equipment, the quality of agricultural products is accurately detected in real time to ensure that the final agricultural products meet the corresponding quality standards. With the help of Internet, QR code, radio frequency tag, blockchain and other technologies, we will establish an information platform for agricultural product quality and food safety that can be traced and shared in the whole process, improve the supervision system of agricultural product quality and safety process from farmland to table, and ensure the people’s "green and safety on the tip of their tongue".

  Promote the integration and branding of agricultural management. The application of information technology has broken the space-time geographical limitation of agricultural market, and the data of agricultural materials procurement and agricultural products circulation will be monitored and transmitted in real time, effectively solving the problem of information asymmetry. Use the e-commerce platform to expand the sales channels of agricultural products, build an integrated agricultural product management system through self-operated bases, self-built websites and independent distribution, and promote the market marketing and brand operation of agricultural products.

  Promote the integration of primary, secondary and tertiary industries. The digitalization, networking and platformization of agriculture will guide the development and alliance of new agricultural business entities such as large professional households, family farms, farmers’ professional cooperatives and excellent enterprises, promote the close connection of related industries such as agricultural product production, circulation, processing, storage and transportation, sales and service, realize the effective allocation of agricultural factor resources, and make the industry and factor agglomeration change from quantitative collection to qualitative change, so as to rebuild the whole agricultural industrial chain and realize the cross-infiltration and integrated development of agriculture and secondary and tertiary industries.

  Intelligent management aims at system optimization.

  Moderator: What is the development status of smart agriculture in developed countries? What experience does it have in the research, development and application of new smart agriculture technologies that are worth learning from in China?

  He Yong (Director, Digital Agriculture and Rural Research Center, Zhejiang University): The United States is a typical modern agricultural country in the world, with about 3.5 million people directly engaged in agricultural production, which not only feeds 300 million Americans, but also becomes the largest exporter of agricultural products in the world. Full mechanization and rapid development of digital technology have laid a solid foundation for the development of its smart agriculture. At present, the United States has formed a sophisticated and large-scale intelligent agricultural production system. 69.6% of farms use sensors to collect data, and agricultural robots are used in agricultural production such as sowing, spraying and harvesting.

  As the world’s largest agricultural drone spraying country, Japan mainly uses the agricultural Internet of Things as the information source, applies a large number of agricultural robots, and constantly pursues labor-saving and refined agricultural production to solve the problem of agricultural labor shortage.

  The characteristics of smart agriculture in Europe, America, Japan and other developed countries are based on the development trend of modern agriculture, combined with the actual agricultural production in their own countries to carry out theoretical and practical research on smart agriculture. With the support of modern information technology, we should give full play to the role of smart agricultural equipment, and apply technologies such as Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, big data and 5G to consider crops, soil, environment, meteorology, equipment and personnel as a whole system, so as to realize intelligent management with the goal of overall optimization of the system.

  Developed countries have the following experiences in the research, development and application of smart agricultural technology, which are worth learning from in China.

  First, starting with improving productivity and solving the bottleneck problem of agricultural production. The Netherlands, Israel and other countries are seriously short of fresh water resources, so they vigorously develop facility agriculture, implement soilless culture and fine spray and drip irrigation systems. Japan’s agricultural labor force is aging and seriously inadequate, and it vigorously develops agricultural drones and agricultural robots, greatly improving operational efficiency. South China is also facing the shortage of labor force and the availability of agricultural inorganic materials in hilly and mountainous areas. We should develop multifunctional small-scale operation equipment, realize the substitution of machines and solve the problem of mechanized operation in hilly and mountainous areas. The main grain producing areas should implement full mechanization to improve labor productivity. Economically developed areas can study the establishment of unmanned or few farms, orchards, pastures, fishing grounds, etc., to improve the level of agricultural modernization.

  Second, the implementation of standardized planning and operation is the basis and condition for the development of smart agriculture. Standardized planning and refined management of farmland, orchards and pastures in developed countries have created conditions for large-scale and efficient use of intelligent agricultural equipment, greatly improving operation efficiency, yield and quality. China’s farmland, orchards and pastures need to promote standardized planning as soon as possible, formulate standardized operation specifications, and develop high-efficiency supporting equipment to create conditions for large-scale mechanized operations.

  Third, make full use of modern science and technology to plug in the wings of science and technology for agriculture. A large number of foreign countries use aerospace technology and meteorological data to achieve rapid and accurate acquisition and intelligent management of farmland information. With the development of Internet of Things, big data and 5G technology, especially the application of high-resolution satellite and Beidou positioning system, it is expected to realize real-time dynamic acquisition of crop and animal and plant growth information, and dynamically adjust and control temperature, humidity and illumination according to crop growth requirements, and accurately spray fertilizers and fertilizers.

  The development of smart agriculture in various places has achieved practical results.

  Moderator: What is the development status of smart agriculture in China? What are the successful experiences and innovative explorations of smart agriculture development in various places?

  Kang Chunpeng (Associate Research Fellow, Information Center, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs): China’s agricultural and rural informatization development level is still in the primary stage, but the agricultural industry is accelerating its transformation towards digitalization, networking and intelligence, and the consumer Internet continues to extend and expand to the industrial Internet. According to the monitoring of the Information Center of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, in 2020, the informatization level of agricultural production in China will be 22.5%, including 18.5% for field cultivation, 23.5% for facility cultivation, 30.2% for livestock breeding and 15.7% for aquaculture. In recent years, China’s smart agriculture has gradually achieved results, and the level of intelligence and unmanned has gradually improved, showing the following highlights.

  First, new products and technologies are booming. Modern information technology is widely used in all aspects and fields of agricultural production, and new products, technologies and models emerge one after another. The digital transformation of agriculture has been accelerated, and the traditional agriculture has been transformed into intelligence. Intelligent identification systems for crop moisture, seedling condition, diseases and pests and disaster monitoring in the field and intelligent robots for farming and harvesting have been continuously developed. In particular, products such as automatic harvesting equipment, agricultural sensors, camera monitoring, pest monitoring and early warning have been widely used.

  Second, no one or few farms broke ground. The rural network infrastructure has been continuously consolidated, especially the maturity and popularization of big data, 5G and artificial intelligence technologies, which provide basic conditions for the development of unmanned or few farms. In Changsha, Hunan, Wuhu, Anhui, Sanjiang, Huzhou, Zhejiang, Chongzhou, Sichuan, Foshan, Guangdong and other places, no one or few farms broke ground, and all farm production operations were completed through remote control of facilities, equipment, machinery and so on, automatic control of the whole process or autonomous control of robots.

  Third, the construction of big data has achieved initial results. From the national level, the sharing of government data resources and the integration of information systems have achieved phased results, the national integrated government service platform has been basically completed, and the pattern of co-construction and sharing of government data resources has basically taken shape. From the perspective of local practice, Anhui, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Guangxi and other places have actively promoted the construction of big data in agriculture and rural areas, and successively built big data platforms. Zhejiang is vigorously promoting the digital reform of "agriculture, rural areas and farmers" throughout the province.

  Fourth, market players have become a new force. Market players are becoming an important force in building smart agriculture. Large enterprises have entered the field of smart agriculture. The three major telecom operators and Internet companies such as Huawei, Alibaba and Tencent have laid out smart agriculture. Sinochem, Zoomlion and Country Garden have begun to enter smart farms. In addition, agricultural enterprises also take the initiative in the digital transformation. Traditional agricultural enterprises such as COFCO, Beidahuang, New Hope and Haisheng Fruit Industry vigorously develop smart planting, smart animal husbandry, smart fisheries and smart processing.

  Since 2019, Zhejiang has taken the lead in building a "digital agricultural factory" in the country, and carried out systematic integration and comprehensive application of digital technology and equipment around the production environment, production process, quality and safety, circulation marketing and technical services. After several years of practice, in 2021, guidelines for the construction of digital agricultural factories, digital fishing grounds and pig farms were successively issued. Shui Mu Vegetable Factory in Deqing County integrates advanced technology into production management, product marketing, quality control, ecological protection and other links, achieving an annual output of 2 million kilograms of tomatoes, with an efficiency of 30 times that of traditional fields; Tongxiang Huateng Animal Husbandry uses technologies such as Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, bio-ear tags and blockchain to promote the digital transformation of animal husbandry and create a safer, more productive and fully automatic breeding environment, saving 80% labor and 60% water.

  Zibo, Shandong Province took the lead in building a digital agricultural rural central city in China, focusing on five key tasks: agricultural production and processing, agricultural product warehousing and logistics, agricultural product marketing, integrated development of agriculture and tourism, and consolidating grassroots foundation, and building a smart sharing "cloud brain", an efficient and high-quality "cloud industry", a regional center "cloud market", a convenient and inclusive "cloud finance" and a new service "cloud village". In 2021, 4.54 billion yuan of major special funds for rural revitalization will be set up, and 40 key digital agriculture and rural projects will have an investment of 5.186 billion yuan, and 30 typical application scenarios and 10 smart towns will be built.

  From a practical point of view, the development of smart agriculture in many places has achieved remarkable results and formed experience for reference. First of all, give full play to the role of market players, establish an effective market in full accordance with the laws of economic operation and information development, and stimulate the vitality of various market players. Secondly, we should play the role of a promising government, guide market expectations with policies, clarify the investment direction with planning, incite social capital with finance, and regulate market behavior with the rule of law. Finally, do a good job in pilot demonstration. Smart agriculture is an advanced form of agricultural informatization, which involves relatively advanced technology and has great market risks. On the basis of fully respecting farmers’ dominant position, we should show them, lead them to work and earn money, and inspire them to use modern information technology to develop production and improve their lives. 

From Enthusiastic Police to Muscle Interpol: On-screen Changes of Mainland Police Image

Extraordinary mission,The dedication of suspect xandKidnapperThree police films are released in Qingming archives.


1905 movie network exclusive feature The police is a charming artistic image, which has the power to exercise justice and the shortcomings of human feelings and humanity. This dual attribute makes the police become a complex contradiction. However, this contradiction is not "contradictory" in previous mainland films, but often appears thin, and this year’s Qingming file has completely changed this situation. On March 31st, it was released on the same day as three gangster films, and three different styles of policemen competed on the same stage on the big screen, which should be the first time in the history of mainland film.

 

The complex attributes of the police themselves and the audience’s different perceptions of them are the creative basis of the changeable image of the police. There are all kinds of policemen active on the screen all over the world. However, this vigorous image has emerged from the thinness and one-sidedness in mainland movies in recent years. Looking back at the changes of the police image on the screen, you will find that it is not easy for mainland police films to go to the present.

 

Poster of "Today is My Day Off"

From warm-hearted police to flesh-and-blood police

 

Police, in the context of the mainland, seems to be a relatively neutral word. In the past, mainland movies preferred to use "police" — — This appellation with class color. Before China films entered the commercial era, mainland police films mainly showed the police and the people, such as those in 1959, 1994 and 1995.

 

Zhong Xinghuo plays Ma Tianmin, a young policeman, in Today is My Day Off. He is too busy with his work to care about his personal feelings. Every time he goes on a blind date on his rest day, he will always be delayed because he wants to help such people. I believe many viewers have seen this creative technique, and it is still used in TV movies starring Tang Wei in 2004 and Fan Ming in 2008.

 

Movies involving criminal investigation police are mostly related to external forces, such as 1980′ s, which is still catching spies who undermine socialist construction. The police in these movies are both wise and brave, and they can always defeat the enemy’s shocking conspiracy, and they also put on a serious face with righteousness when dealing with the enemy — — Of course, class enemies cannot be treated equally with the people.

 

Stills of "Xi Feng Lie"

The film released in 2010 changed the strong image of police officers in China. Four mainland policemen (Duan Long, Dahong Ni, Jason Wu and Zhang Li) were crushed by two professional killers (Wu Zhenyu and Yu Nan), and the final outcome can only be described as a tragic victory. The image of the mainland police in the movie is more realistic. Not only did they lose their marksmanship, but they also believed in drug lords (Louis Koo), which led to "total annihilation".

 

"The West Wind is Fierce" and "Drug War" can be said to have brought the image of the mainland police back to the ground to some extent, but the police in these two films are still very traditional positive images. A further breakthrough has been made, and the police are no longer selfless. Zhang Zili, a policeman played by Liao Fan, finds that Wu Zhizhen (Kwai Lun Mei) is the mastermind of the serial murders, and takes her to the Ferris wheel where she can see the daytime fireworks hotel, so as to induce her to have sex with herself (deleting the passionate fragments from the film), but finally reports the latter. The justice of this injured retired criminal policeman is tainted justice and incomplete justice.

China CDC released a new version of influenza vaccination guidelines.

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, September 6 (Reporter Gu Tiancheng) added new research evidence, updated relevant policies and measures for influenza prevention and control, and updated the types of influenza vaccines listed and used in China in 2023-2024 and vaccination suggestions … The reporter learned from the China CDC on the 6 th that the China Center for Disease Control and Prevention has recently issued the "Technical Guide for Influenza Vaccine Vaccination in China (2023-2024)", which provides guidance for better guiding influenza prevention and control and vaccine use in China.

Experts from the Infectious Diseases Management Office of China CDC said that influenza is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by influenza virus, which is seriously harmful to human health, and people are generally susceptible to influenza virus. High-risk groups such as pregnant women, infants, the elderly and patients with chronic diseases are more harmful after being infected with influenza, and influenza outbreaks are prone to occur in places where people gather, such as schools, kindergartens and nursing homes.

Vaccination against influenza every year is an effective means to prevent influenza and reduce the burden of influenza-related severe illness and death. The new version of the guide is clear, and it is recommended that all people who are ≥6 months old and have no vaccination contraindications should be vaccinated against influenza. Priority is given to the timely vaccination of key and high-risk groups including medical personnel, the elderly aged 60 and above, people suffering from one or more chronic diseases, children aged 6 to 59 months, their family members and caregivers.

According to the guidelines, in terms of vaccination times, it is recommended that children aged 6 months to 8 years old who have not been vaccinated with influenza vaccine before should be vaccinated with 2 doses at intervals of ≥4 weeks; In 2022-2023 or before, one dose or more of influenza vaccine was inoculated, and then one dose was inoculated; Children and adults aged 9 years and above need only be vaccinated once regardless of whether they have been vaccinated with influenza before. For live attenuated influenza virus vaccine, no matter whether it has been vaccinated with influenza vaccine or not, only one dose is given.

The guidelines also suggest that all localities should carry out vaccination as soon as possible after the vaccine supply is in place, and try to complete vaccination before the local influenza epidemic season. For people who can be vaccinated with different types or different manufacturers of vaccine products, the recipients or their guardians can voluntarily choose to vaccinate any kind of influenza vaccine, and there is no priority recommendation.

Competition films, stars and gimmicks: investors’ constant pursuit in Cannes market


Macbeth stills


    Special feature of 1905 film network From May 12th to 21st, Cannes Film Market, the world’s largest film market, was held as scheduled. This year, more than 5,000 companies from 116 countries came here to seek opportunities. Buying films, selling copyrights and looking for investment are naturally eternal topics in every film market. What kind of works do buyers love to buy and sellers are not worried about selling? The answers can be summarized into three items: competition films, stars and gimmicks.

Stills of My King

 

[competition film]

Competition films are basically not for sale, and posters will always be hung in a conspicuous position in the booth.

 

    As the world’s top film festival, the influence of Cannes International Film Festival is self-evident. Therefore, the film that can be shortlisted in the competition unit (especially the main competition unit, of course) is equivalent to getting a free and most fruitful publicity opportunity. Walking into the film market area, you can immediately see that the companies that sell the film copyright of the main competition unit put the large posters of these competition films high in the eye-catching position of their booths.

 

    StudioCanal, a famous French film company, is in charge of the commercial cooperation between Michael Fassbender and marion cotillard and these two short-listed films. Their posters hung left and right in front of the company booth. On the day of Xiaobian’s visit, many buyers stopped here, and there was an endless stream of buyers who made appointments and attended meetings. The itinerary in the hands of the staff has long been remembered. One person in charge revealed to the 1905 film network that their conversations with buyers would basically last all day without interruption. Macbeth and My King are naturally inquired the most, and the operation process is relatively easy. After all, the good reputation of being selected as the main competition unit in Cannes has long been outside.

 

    The main forces of Japanese and Korean film companies are concentrated in the "one kind of attention" unit. UniJapan undoubtedly focuses its business on Naomi Kawase. Every day, the company arranges time for buyers to watch movies, and this year’s Japanese night, all the screens in the venue are also playing the latest exposure materials of "Taste of Chengsha" repeatedly; South Korea has two films shortlisted for this unit, which were brought by FINECUT and CJ Group. The horizontal posters of these two works have been occupying the entrance position of the two companies’ booths for the first few days.

Korean actor Kim Woo Bin’s new work "Twenty" 

[star]

All countries are playing star brand, and new projects rely on big coffee to attract buyers to inject capital.

 

    In addition to these completed films, the film side is also busy selling projects that are still in the later stage or even just starting to major international distributors. What do these works without the aura of the main competition unit need to attract buyers’ attention? Of course it’s a star!

 

    Therefore, IM Global announced that it would come to Cannes with The Circle led by Tom Hanks and Journey to Samarkand by Tom Hardy. FilmNation hopes to make some gains in the Cannes film market with Nocturnal Animais, which is supervised by George Clooney and starring amy adams and Jake Gyllenhaal. In addition, Bloom’s new film Woodshock from kirsten dunst and Comancheria from Jeff Bridges and "Star-Lord" chris pine produced by Sierra/Affinity also reached preliminary agreements with publishers in some countries in Cannes.

 

    This is the case in North America, and so is returning to the Asian market. Take hallyu star as an example. This time CJ Company came to Cannes with a new film starring EXO, the first Korean idol men’s group, and the works performed by some members of the group alone are not new works, but they are also involved. Thanks to the popularity of actor Kim Woo Bin, his NEW work was also brought to Cannes by New, which was recently made in South Korea and received a good response.

 

    Such a "gathering of stars" situation also reflects a major feature of the current Cannes film market, or some dilemmas: buyers’ eyes only stay on the stars. Although there are countless new projects in the market, small producers and low-profile people are basically left behind by buyers. David Garrett of Mister Smith Entertainment said in an interview with the media: "At present, we have encountered the problem of chicken and egg: without enough project investment, we can’t invite stars to join us; Without a star to join, who will invest money? "

"Love" hits the 3D erotic card

 

[Shantou]

3D passionate release, bursting popularity, boosting film sales

 

    Of course, there are ways to give yourself a sense of existence without being shortlisted for the competition unit or being a big star. The screening unit "Love" succeeded: with the super-large-scale erotic drama and the blessing of 3D special effects, the film was popular after its debut in Cannes. Although the feedback on the quality of the film is different, it is undeniable that Love has accumulated a high enough topic for a while. It is reported that these popularity have been successfully transformed into the "sales performance" of the film to a certain extent.

 

    The success of "Love" is quite accidental, but the so-called making gimmicks and catching people’s eyes is not only a passionate play or a full scale. During the period of Cannes, you can get twice the result with half the effort by successfully grasping the propaganda opportunity and creating topics. For example, at present, the cover of the contracted field magazine that Chinese films often choose is also a kind.

China Science Fiction: Entering a New Era and Shaping a New Pattern

  [Hot spot observation]

  Author: Ai You (Professor, School of Arts, Capital Normal University); Ruan Nanyan (Associate Professor, College of Literature, Zhejiang Communication University)

  From "Three-body" to The Wandering Earth, from sci-fi literature to sci-fi movies and TV shows, since the 21st century, the number of high-quality domestic sci-fi literary works has increased from less to more, the group of sci-fi creators has been expanding, and the new Chinese-style sci-fi narrative discourse of the national, scientific and popular people has gradually formed, all of which indicate that "a new era of science fiction in China" has arrived.

  Imagination is on the wings of soaring.

  For a long time in the past, when it comes to the shortcomings of China’s science fiction, some people think that China’s writers and artists lack imagination.

  That was not the case. Looking back at the history of China literature and art, we can see a large number of stories and works with high quality and imagination everywhere: fairy tales such as Jingwei’s reclamation and The goddess patching the sky imply creative fantasy paths, and many poems (poems about immortals), essays (strange essays, strange notes) and novels (fairy tales and fairy tales) are engraved with rich and wonderful fantasy factors.

  Although those fantasies are not "scientific fantasies", the seeds of imagination have long been deeply rooted in the soil of China’s traditional culture. China sci-fi creators who grew up in this land naturally have imaginative genes, and their imaginative perspectives have unique national characteristics different from their western counterparts. In recent years, China’s new generation of sci-fi literature and art has been writing incessantly, and excellent works have appeared frequently, all of which are closely related to this imagination.

  For example, Liu Cixin’s "Three-body" creatively combines the development of science and technology with the "Three-body Problem", deeply digs into the mysterious techniques of Zhouyi and exquisite Mohist institutions, and makes China historical figures such as Zhou Wenwang and Mozi shine on the same stage as foreign scientific giants such as Newton and von Neumann, thus showing the world in nationality. The imaginative descriptions such as dehydration, soaking and two-way foil in the works enable readers to appreciate the diversity of cosmic civilization from a drop in the ocean.

  For another example, Fei Deuterium’s "China Science Fiction Blockbuster" breaks through the traditional expression of science fiction, and combines China’s ancient mythology, the way of Confucius and Mencius, the theory of Laozi and Zhuangzi, Buddhist meditation and the common elements in science fiction — — Cyberspace, space exploration, and the end of mankind are all mixed together, telling a story with grotesque colors but profound implications, which makes the works show extremely distinctive China characteristics.

  In addition, Wang Jinkang’s Mercury Sowing, Han Song’s Tombstone of the Universe, and Diptera’s Ecological Ball in the Universe are also full of rich imagination. The authors of these works lead everyone into a unique sci-fi space by building a future picture that transcends everyday life. There are time-space folding, AI awakening, star tearing, light speed transition, black hole drifting, alien invasion, and Chinese’s perspective of observing the world and thinking about the future.

  From the aesthetic point of view, the essence of the imagination of sci-fi works is the understanding of the relationship between works and reality, involving the world outlook, material outlook, the relationship between the real world and the imaginary world of the imaginary subject or the recipient. Therefore, although science fiction is about the imagination of the future, many of its contents have the transcendence of facing the future, but they also have the localization based on the national cultural tradition. If China science fiction wants to develop, it is not how to stimulate the imagination of the creators, but how to imagine the universe and the future of mankind from the perspective of China. Only in this way can we create a science fiction world and imagination aesthetics different from the West.

  Science and technology provide hard core support

  Imagination is an important factor affecting the creation of science fiction, but it is not the only factor. After all, science fiction is not a simple fantasy.

  Whether it is science fiction literature or science fiction film and television, they are born on the basis of the continuous development of science and technology. Throughout the 200-year history of world science fiction literature and art, every breakthrough in science fiction literature and art can not be separated from the leap-forward development of science and technology. For example, space travel and gene cloning, which science fiction fans are familiar with, more or less reflect the scientific and technological innovations in the real world.

  On the one hand, the sci-fi ideas in sci-fi works are mostly constructed on the basis of scientific theories. For example, the "dark forest law" in Three-body is related to Fermi paradox, evolution theory and Hawking’s cosmic prediction in reality. On the other hand, real scientific and technological achievements provide realistic support for sci-fi imagination. For example, the nano-flying blade, particle collision, proton blockade and water droplets in Three-body are the extension of the research results in the micro-world, and the clones, new intellectuals and virtual life in Roses of Carthage and Strangers reflect the application of cutting-edge biotechnology. In addition, the development of science and technology has also enriched the theme of science fiction literature and art. In recent years, new themes such as "StarCraft", "Steampunk" and "Cyberpunk" in the field of science fiction literature and art are all related to the popularity of these concepts in real life.

  If imagination is inserted into the soaring wings of sci-fi literature and art, then science and technology provide hard-core support for sci-fi literature and art, and help sci-fi literature and art "fantasy come true". This is because the creation of sci-fi works such as sci-fi movies needs strong industrial strength and technical strength to provide support. The film and television of "Three-body" has been brewing for many years, and it was not until the technical level reached the requirements in 2015 that it was filmed. Many devices in Wandering Earth 2 have "prototypes" in reality. For example, the ubiquitous mobile robots in the film are all robot products in reality; The cool mecha that can be transformed into "Hercules" in the film is an "exoskeleton robot" that has entered the real application. In short, the rapid development of science and technology has provided sci-fi creators with materials to write and inspiration, and also provided material basis and technical means for the creation of sci-fi movies, making the sci-fi world more "touchable" and "sensible".

  At present, a new wave of science and technology represented by artificial intelligence, quantum engineering and genetic engineering is emerging. In this wave of science and technology, China’s achievements are obvious to all, and it has realized "observing the sky with the eye of the sky", "exploring the moon with Chang ‘e" and "Kuafu" day by day, all of which provide inexhaustible power for China sci-fi creators to fly their imaginations. We believe that with the support of technology and the efforts of creators, China science fiction will surely usher in the spring of a hundred flowers.

  Humanistic feelings shape the core of value

  Three-body, whether it is The Wandering Earth or not, has become a phenomenal sci-fi work, not only because of its fantastic ideas and hard-core technology, but also because it is different from the individual heroism in western sci-fi works, conveying the humanistic spirit and values with unique China characteristics combined with sci-fi sense, which can best represent the characteristics of China’s sci-fi.

  In the The Wandering Earth, Liu Peiqiang’s great righteousness in boarding the space station has the love of protecting his family, and Tu Hengyu’s determination to sacrifice for mankind is full of deep love for his daughter. They attach importance to family ties and care about the dedication and sacrifice of the world, which is an expression of Chinese feelings inspired by the feelings of home and country. In the works, it is not an individual who finally saves the crisis, but everyone’s Qi Xin’s concerted efforts. Without everyone, there is no small home. The work shows the audience what collectivism is and perfectly explains China’s idea of "isomorphism between home and country".

  Paying attention to the future and destiny of mankind is the common theme of science fiction works all over the world. However, different sci-fi works give different answers to how to deal with the common challenges of mankind. Unlike some foreign sci-fi works, which pin their hopes of changing human destiny on a few superheroes, China’s sci-fi works advocate the establishment of a community of human destiny. Whether it is Three-body, The Devourer or Micro-Era, it vividly depicts the alliance of human beings against natural disasters in the universe and the impact of alien civilization, reflecting Chinese’s world outlook and values.

  From the perspective of "the community of human destiny", China’s sci-fi works have also expanded the ethical dimension with a global perspective, not only paying attention to the major powers in the world, but also focusing on the third world countries neglected by the mainstream sci-fi creators in the world. For example, Glory and Dreams shows the stubborn resistance of the "Republic of West Asia" to hegemony and colonialism. At the same time, with the increasingly severe global challenges, China’s sci-fi creators have also added thoughts on the ethics of life science and technology and the ethics of ecological science to their narrative ethics, calling on everyone to unite and struggle for the common interests of all mankind from a transcendental perspective, which reflects the value concept of "harmony and symbiosis" and the idea of "one world under one family" in China culture.

  No matter from the perspective of creation or industry, there is still a gap between us and developed countries in science fiction, but this gap is narrowing. China science fiction is constructing a completely self-consistent logic system and value system, which will profoundly affect the trend of the world science fiction pattern. In the future, China’s sci-fi creators should pay attention to and describe the common challenges faced by mankind from a broader perspective, explore the ultimate destiny of mankind, and build a sense of "community of human destiny", which is not only the pattern that sci-fi creators should have, but also the inevitable requirement for China’s sci-fi to become bigger and stronger.

  Industrial machine tool is the "machine tool", which is the foundation of manufacturing industry and has an important supporting position in the national economy; Robot is an important symbol of scientific and technological innovation and high-end manufacturing level, and it is also the new blue ocean of manufacturing industry in the future.

  Yangzhou industrial machine tool industry has a long history and a solid foundation, forming the characteristics and advantages of taking metal forming machine tools as the main part, cutting machine tools as the supplement, and high-end single (set) equipment to drive the development of complete production lines. Especially in the field of metal forming machine tools, it is unique. Four of the top 10 domestic metal forming machine tool manufacturers are in Yangzhou. However, compared with advanced regions, there are still problems such as small overall scale and insufficient industrial support, which need to be continuously exerted to promote the upgrading of the industrial chain.

  I have three suggestions: First, promote the backbone enterprises to become bigger and stronger, aim at expanding the industrial scale, and concentrate superior resources to cultivate key enterprises. The second is to consolidate the supply chain foundation of the industrial chain and promote the transformation and upgrading of traditional parts supporting enterprises to intelligent greening; Carry out professional investment promotion in the field of machine tool supporting, and strive to make a breakthrough in the local supporting of key core components. The third is to strengthen the platform construction of integration of production and education, guide key enterprises to strengthen cooperation with institutions of higher learning, and promote the construction of integration of production and education.

  Mobile display of the latest Russian T-90C main battle tank wearing a new camouflage system [data photo]


  Russian Deputy Defense Minister makarov told Russian media on the 22nd that Russia is testing a tank with excellent performance, and the test work will end next year, and the army will be produced and equipped in 2009.


  Ten years ahead of the west


  Makarov said that the combat performance of this new type of tank is better than that of all types of tanks at home and abroad, and its running device, driving device, fire control system, weapon, target identification and reconnaissance system are all new.


  The analysis pointed out that Russia’s new tank is most likely the T-95 speculated by the outside world. As early as the mid-1980s, the former Soviet Union started the development plan of the fourth-generation main battle tank T-95, but it stopped for various reasons. This new tank weighs 50 tons, and its length and width are basically the same as those of T-72 and T-80. It has absorbed many advantages of active tanks and given more special properties, which has far exceeded the new main battle tank being developed in the United States. It is said that it will take at least 10 years for the west to catch up.


  The fourth generation of new modeling


  According to the data, the firepower is one of the biggest advantages of the T-95. In addition to the comprehensive strike fire system, its gun-launched missiles can penetrate 1200 mm thick armor at a long distance, and the hit rate is guaranteed to be above 80%. The T-95 has a maximum off-road speed of 85km/h and is equipped with an intelligent suspension device, which doubles the off-road speed and improves the stability by 10 times.


  In terms of protective measures, T-95 adopts all-titanium alloy modular armor with high strength and good toughness, so that the resistance can reach or exceed 1500 mm thick steel plate. Different from the previous Russian tanks, the T-95 broke the tradition and adopted the unmanned turret design, and its automation degree was obviously improved. The tank crew will be reduced to two, namely the captain and the driver (and mechanic). It pays attention to the ergonomic design, the cockpit is completely separated from the combat cabin with armor plates, the chair is comfortable, the cabin activity space is more spacious than other tanks, and the fatigue factor caused by narrow space is reduced.


  In addition, the T-95 is equipped with the most modern radio equipment. With its low profile, powerful artillery, advanced protection and anti-dust measures, T-95 can have an advantage in the confrontation with any modern tank.


  Russia stepped up its armament.


  Russian President Vladimir Putin said in his State of the Union address in April this year that Russia must continue to strengthen its armed forces, and Russia has begun to implement the national weapons and equipment plan for 2007-2015, most of which should be used to purchase new weapons and military technology and equipment in bulk. According to Russian media reports, Russia’s defense budget in 2007 was 822 billion rubles (US$ 1 is about 25 rubles), which means that Russia urgently needs weapons and equipment, most of which will be used to update naval weapons and equipment, at least 50% of which will be used for submarine forces.


  Military industrial complex is the success of Russian defense industry, which has high technology and innovative vitality, and employs tens of thousands of people. In 2005, Russia’s weapons and equipment have been exported to 61 countries, with a total export value exceeding $6 billion.

Practical Logic of Building Modern Civilization of Chinese Nation

  Authors: Zhang Ming and Guo Guangyin (both special researchers of the New Era Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought Research Center, the supreme leader of Jiangsu Province)

  Culture is related to the country’s foundation and national luck, and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation cannot be achieved without the prosperity of culture. It is our new cultural mission in the new era to continue to promote cultural prosperity, build a cultural power and build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation at a new starting point. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the historic achievements in propaganda, ideological and cultural work lie in the fact that the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader is at the helm and the scientific guidance of Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era of the Supreme Leader. General Secretary Supreme Leader’s new ideas, new viewpoints and new judgments on cultural construction in the new era are rich in connotation and profound in exposition. They are the theoretical summary of the practical experience of the Party’s cultural construction in the new era, enrich and develop Marxist cultural theory, constitute the cultural chapter of Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, and form the cultural thought of Supreme Leader. Adhering to the guidance of the supreme leader’s cultural thought and building the modern civilization of the Chinese nation in the great practice of deepening Chinese modernization is an inherent and inevitable requirement for realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and it is also an important task put forward by historical progress and the development of the times.

  1. Leadership: firmly adhere to the party’s cultural leadership.

  Propaganda and ideological and cultural work is related to the future and destiny of the party, the long-term stability of the country, the national cohesion and centripetal force, and it is an extremely important work. As an important manifestation of superstructure, culture is a theoretical reflection based on a specific economy, a concentrated expression of a specific class position and class interests, and has distinct ideological attributes. The Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership is the most essential feature of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and upholding the overall leadership of the Party is the fundamental guarantee for promoting the development of modern civilization of the Chinese nation in the right direction.

  Consolidate the guiding position of Marxism in the ideological field. The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee established the fundamental system of adhering to the guiding position of Marxism in the ideological field, which is a historical conclusion and a realistic necessity. Marxism, with its thorough scientificity, popularity, practicality and openness, illuminates the road for human beings to explore the truth and realize liberation, and also rewrites the track of social and historical development in China since modern times, enabling the people of China to realize the ideological transformation from passive to active. The "modern" dimension of Chinese modern civilization is endowed by the scientific truth of Marxism from the perspective of world outlook and methodology. Chinese traditional civilization emerged into a contemporary form under the "activation" of Marxist truth power, and realized a modern transformation in the interaction with contemporary practice and contemporary life.

  Consolidate the common ideological foundation of the United struggle of the whole party and the people of the whole country. Ideals and beliefs are the "master switch" of world outlook, values and outlook on life. In the new era and new journey, we must strengthen the lofty ideal of communism and the common ideal of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and consolidate the ideological foundation of the people’s United struggle throughout the country. Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought, the supreme leader in the new era, adheres to the Marxist standpoint, viewpoint and method, adheres to the basic principles of scientific socialism, profoundly sums up and makes full use of the historical experience of the party’s century-long struggle, inherits and carries forward the essence of Chinese excellent traditional culture, enriches and develops Marxism with brand-new ideological content according to the development and changes of the times and practice, and forms a systematic and scientific theoretical system. To create a new culture that belongs to our era and build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation, we must persistently arm our minds, guide practice and promote work with the Party’s innovative theory.

  Carry out the overall leadership of the party in all aspects of propaganda, ideological and cultural work. The Communist Party of China (CPC) is not only an active leader and practitioner of China’s advanced culture, but also a faithful inheritor and promoter of Chinese excellent traditional culture. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has systematically planned and deployed the propaganda and ideological and cultural work from the overall situation and strategic height. Held two national conferences on propaganda and ideological work, emphasizing that "the whole party must do a good job in propaganda and ideological work"; At the symposium on literary and artistic work, he pointed out that "the leadership of the party is the fundamental guarantee for the development of socialist literature and art"; At the party’s forum on news and public opinion work, it was emphasized that "the media sponsored by the party and the government are the propaganda positions of the party and the government and must be surnamed the party"; At the symposium on network security and informatization, it is required that "where the masses are, our leading cadres will go"; At the symposium on the work of philosophy and social sciences, he pointed out that "strengthening and improving the party’s leadership over the work of philosophy and social sciences is the fundamental guarantee for the prosperity and development of the cause of philosophy and social sciences in China"; At the national conference on ideological and political work in colleges and universities, it was emphasized that "the Party’s leadership over the work in colleges and universities should be firmly grasped" … … China’s propaganda, ideological and cultural work is constantly opening up a new situation, and the party’s cultural leadership is always unshakable. It is the fundamental guarantee that the party’s leadership runs through all aspects and links of the work.

  2. Spiritual foundation: strengthen cultural self-confidence and enhance historical initiative.

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized that "China has firm road confidence, theoretical confidence and institutional confidence, and its essence is cultural confidence based on more than 5,000 years of civilization inheritance". Only when a country or a nation has full confidence in its own cultural ideals and values, as well as its own cultural vitality and creativity, can it have the determination to persist, the courage to work hard and the vitality to innovate and create. Building the modern civilization of the Chinese nation is the proper meaning of strengthening cultural self-confidence, and it is also the concentrated expression and future extension of cultural self-confidence.

  The core content of Chinese excellent traditional culture has become the most basic cultural gene of the Chinese nation, which exerts a subtle influence on China people’s way of thinking and behavior. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "Without the 5,000-year civilization of China, where would there be any China characteristics? If it is not the characteristics of China, how can we have such a successful Socialism with Chinese characteristics road today? " The world view, world view, social view and moral view contained in Chinese excellent traditional culture are highly compatible with the scientific socialist values. To build the modern civilization of the Chinese nation under the new historical conditions, we must keep the "root vein" of Chinese excellent traditional culture and absorb the wisdom and nourishment of contemporary China cultural construction from the rich resource pool of traditional culture; At the same time, we should go out of the "study" and "classics" to promote the creative transformation and innovative development of Chinese excellent traditional culture, so that it can be integrated with contemporary social production and contemporary cultural forms.

  Revolutionary culture and advanced socialist culture are precious spiritual wealth with the characteristics of the times, national characteristics, China style and China style. They not only reflect the inheritance of Chinese excellent traditional culture, but also demonstrate the creative transformation and innovative development of Chinese excellent traditional culture, which is a powerful spiritual force to inspire the whole party and people of all ethnic groups to March forward courageously. In particular, the spiritual pedigree of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people, which originated from the great spirit of party building, is a vivid embodiment of revolutionary culture and advanced socialist culture, and has become a powerful spiritual driving force to inspire the whole party and people of all ethnic groups to explore a scientific road that conforms to their own reality with self-confidence and self-reliance, and to constantly overcome difficulties and move from victory to victory. Revolutionary culture and advanced socialist culture not only have profound nationality, but also have distinct characteristics of the times and politics. They are powerful forces to shape the internal characteristics of modern Chinese civilization and important support to highlight the socialist value attribute of modern Chinese civilization.

  To strengthen cultural self-confidence and build the modern civilization of the Chinese nation, we must stick to our own path. On the basis of remarkable achievements since the founding of New China, especially since the reform and opening up, historic achievements and changes have taken place in the cause of the party and the state in the new era, which is the most solid foundation for promoting the construction of modern civilization of the Chinese nation and strengthening cultural self-confidence. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "The primary task of strengthening cultural self-confidence is to base on the great historical practice and contemporary practice of the Chinese nation, sum up China’s experience with China’s truth, and upgrade China’s experience to China’s theory, neither blindly following various dogmas nor copying foreign theories, so as to achieve spiritual independence." To strengthen cultural self-confidence and build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation is essentially to proceed from the historical depth of culture, profoundly grasp the inherent regularity and purpose of our choice of Socialism with Chinese characteristics road, and constantly enhance the theoretical confidence of unswervingly taking our own road from the cultural and civilized levels.

  3. Fundamental method: further promote the "second combination"

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "‘ The second combination ’ It is another ideological emancipation that allows us to make full use of the valuable resources of Chinese excellent traditional culture in a broader cultural space and explore future-oriented theoretical and institutional innovations. " The "second combination" shows that our party’s understanding of China’s road, theory and system has reached a new height, that our party’s historical self-confidence and cultural self-confidence have reached a new height, and that our party’s consciousness of promoting cultural innovation in inheriting Chinese excellent traditional culture has reached a new height. Deepening the "second combination" is the fundamental way to build the modern civilization of the Chinese nation.

  Correctly handle the relationship between modernity and tradition, that is, the relationship between Marxist theory based on modern mechanized mass production and Chinese excellent traditional culture based on natural economy. The "second combination" is not a rigid combination in form, nor a simple physical reaction, but a profound chemical reaction based on mutual integration. Through "combination", Marxism and Chinese excellent traditional culture have achieved each other, forming a modern new civilization that not only follows the basic principles of Marxism but also highlights the profound connotation of Chinese civilization. On the one hand, it activates Chinese excellent traditional culture with the power of Marxist truth, and through creative transformation and innovative development, it blends Chinese excellent traditional culture with Chinese modernization, with modern social life, and with contemporary cultural forms to become modern, thus developing the modern form of Chinese civilization. On the other hand, the great spirit and rich wisdom of the Chinese nation will be injected into Marxism at a deeper level, and the essence of Marxist thought will be integrated with the essence of Chinese excellent traditional culture, which will be fused into new theoretical advantages and make Marxism become China’s.

  Explore future-oriented theoretical and institutional innovations in a broader cultural space. Chinese excellent traditional culture contains rich practical wisdom accumulated in the long history, which has important reference and enlightenment significance in the great practice of governing the country in the new era. From the people-oriented concept of "people are the foundation of the country" to the development idea of "adhering to the people-centered", from the great practice of "Taoism is natural", "harmony between man and nature" to "Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets", from "harmony among all nations" to "building a community of human destiny", the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core insists on combining the basic principles of Marxism with Chinese excellent traditional culture. We should dig deep into the unique cultural genes and spirit contained in Chinese excellent traditional culture, make full use of the precious resources of Chinese excellent traditional culture, and explore future-oriented theoretical and institutional innovations in a broader cultural space, which has provided a steady stream of power support for building the modern civilization of the Chinese nation.

  Constantly consolidate the cultural subjectivity of the Chinese nation in "combination". A culture must have its own subjectivity in order to stand and go far. Since modern times, the Chinese nation has suffered from the disaster of "national humiliation, people’s hardship and civilization", and the cultural subjectivity has suffered a great impact. Rebuilding cultural subjectivity to realize the revival of civilization has become an important dimension to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The Communist Party of China (CPC) stands at the forefront of the times, shoulders the heavy responsibility of rejuvenation, unites and leads the people of China, takes root in China, adheres to the Chinese cultural stance, combines the basic principles of Marxism with the concrete reality of China and the excellent traditional Chinese culture, promotes the creative transformation and innovative development of the excellent traditional Chinese culture, inherits the revolutionary culture, develops the advanced socialist culture, draws lessons from and absorbs all the outstanding achievements of human civilization, and constantly consolidates the cultural subjectivity of the Chinese nation. The creation of the new era of the supreme leader, Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought, is a powerful manifestation of cultural subjectivity.

  4. Promotion path: adhere to the organic unity of taking root locally and facing the world.

  Building the modern civilization of the Chinese nation is not only the renewal of civilization, but also a great creation based on the practice of contemporary China. We must firmly adhere to taking root in the native land and absorb the nutrients and strength of civilization construction from the great practice of comprehensively promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese modernization; Adhere to openness and tolerance, and constantly enrich the garden of human civilization in promoting exchanges and mutual learning among civilizations.

  Consolidate the realistic foundation of building the modern civilization of the Chinese nation with Chinese modernization. Building the modern civilization of the Chinese nation is not to "sort out the national heritage" by returning to the study, nor is it simply to transform the traditional cultural expressions with modern concepts, but to make the excellent traditional Chinese culture adapt to modern production and connect with modern life. The modern civilization of the Chinese nation should be constantly generated in the great practice of Chinese-style modernization, and constantly mature in the mutual blending and adjustment with modern production and modern culture. Chinese-style modernization not only endows Chinese civilization with modern power, but also constructs a profound cultural heritage of Chinese-style modernization. As General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "Chinese-style modernization is to continue the modernization of ancient civilization, not to eliminate it;" It is a modernization that grows from the land of China, not the modernization of other countries; It is the result of the renewal of civilization, not the product of the fracture of civilization. " Chinese modernization not only follows the general law of modernization, but also highlights the distinctive characteristics of China’s reality and cultural factors; It not only represents the modern development direction of Chinese civilization, but also highlights the new form of human civilization development, providing a steady stream of nutrients for the construction of modern civilization of the Chinese nation.

  The modern civilization of the Chinese nation is both national and global. The concept expression of Chinese modern civilization includes two key words: "Chinese nation" and "modernity". "Chinese nation" shows the "Chinese and Western dimensions" of civilization construction, while "modernity" shows the "ancient and modern dimensions" of civilization construction. In fact, since modern times, people with lofty ideals in China have always been faced with the "dispute between ancient and modern China and the West", and there is a bipolar opposition between "total westernization" and "retro conservatism". Chinese civilization is a collection of diverse cultures, and it has outstanding inclusive characteristics, which fundamentally determines the openness of Chinese culture to the world civilization. The Communist Party of China (CPC) insists on not forgetting the original, absorbing foreign countries and facing the future, and correctly handles the dialectical relationship between the native land and the world, tradition and modernity in deepening the "two combinations", thus building a scientific path for the construction of modern civilization of the Chinese nation. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "After long-term efforts, we are more qualified to crack ‘ The dispute between ancient and modern China and the West ’ ,It is also more urgent than any previous era to need a batch of cultural achievements that melt and cast ancient and modern, and connect China and the West. To build the modern civilization of the Chinese nation, we must realize the organic unity of "adhering to the ancestors" and "speaking new words". We must not only inherit and develop China’s excellent traditional culture under the new historical conditions, but also uphold the concept of civilized exchange and mutual learning, constantly absorb all positive achievements of human civilization, promote the localization of foreign cultures, and constantly create new forms of human civilization.

No.9 electric car: starting from the high end, trapped in the niche.

Text | Niu Dao Finance Jiang Tong

With the success of Company No.9, Gao Lufeng entered the Red Sea of electric bicycles.

The electric bicycle industry is extremely involuted, which goes deep into villages and towns in China. It is not easy to get out of many enterprises, and the secret of the success of Company No.9 is the differentiated high-end.

Not long ago, Company No.9 held a new product launch conference. Gao Lufeng, founder and chairman of No.9 Company, said, "Based on our scientific and technological innovation and market insight, we hope to make the blue ocean bigger and the red sea blue, and win-win with the market and users."

In the eyes of the public, Company No.9, which firmly occupies the high-end market of electric vehicles, seems to be the most promising king to subvert the electric vehicle market.

However, if a fish knows how to drink cold and warm, it will become a high-end company, and at the same time, Company No.9 can’t escape the niche.

For a long time, the sales volume of No.9 electric vehicle is not at the same level as that of Yadea and Emma.

According to Sina Finance, in 2022, the total annual sales volume of electric scooters and electric bicycles in Yadea was 14.01 million, while the annual sales volume of Emma’s electric bicycles and electric two-wheeled motorcycles was 10.51 million. According to the annual report of No.9 Company, as of March 2023, the cumulative domestic shipment of No.9 electric vehicles was 1.5 million.

With such a big sales gap, can Company No.9 really rely on hard-core technology to achieve counterattack?

Relying on science and technology, Company No.9 is firmly in the high-end market.

In 2012, Gao Lufeng and Wang Ye jointly founded Company No.9, mainly involved in the field of short-distance transportation.

Different from ordinary entrepreneurs, Gao Lufeng, who graduated from Beihang University majoring in aircraft manufacturing, has been focusing on science and technology and innovation since the beginning of his business.

Gao Lufeng once said: "The company’s performance growth is mainly based on continuous innovation, constantly improving the scientific and technological content of products and enabling products to land."

At that time, Company No.9 successfully earned the first bucket of gold by relying on the first generation of intelligent balance cars with self-balance status.

Around 2013, with the rapid growth of mobile phone business, Xiaomi announced the "Xiaomi Ecological Chain" plan, and prepared to invest in 100 AIoT enterprises in the next five years.

Gao Lufeng was keenly aware that this was an opportunity for the rise of Company No.9, so he reached a cooperation with Xiaomi Company. In 2014, with advanced science and technology, Company No.9 became a member of Xiaomi’s ecological chain, and received A-round investment of more than 80 million US dollars from stars such as Xiaomi, Sequoia and Shunwei.

Facts have proved that Gao Lufeng’s choice is very correct, and cooperation with Xiaomi has indeed laid the foundation for the future development of No.9 company.

On October 19, 2015, with the official appearance of the No.9 balance car at the Xiaomi conference, Lei Jun also announced that it would be sold in Xiaomi omni-channel, and the No.9 balance car quickly became popular in the market and instantly became a phenomenal explosion product.

At the same time, in order to improve the technical core strength of No.9 Company, in 2015, No.9 Company successfully acquired Segway, the originator of the world balance car. After the completion of the acquisition, Company No.9 not only owns more than 400 global industry core patents, but also becomes a global leader in the field of intelligent short-distance transportation.

Since then, with the development strategy change of No.9 Company, the balance car is no longer its core business, but its concept of product strength has not changed.

According to the data of iResearch, one of the important elements that more and more consumers consider when buying a car is intelligent function.

The No.9 electric vehicle has a strong lead over other products in software and intelligent technology. In December 2019, Company No.9 officially released its first intelligent electric two-wheeled vehicle, which not only has a product design with both practicality and recognition, but also brings a subversive riding experience with its technological sense design. Many No.9 users feel that "No.9 is Tesla in the electric vehicle industry", which will be unforgettable once it is used.

With advanced scientific and technological design, the No.9 electric vehicle has quickly occupied the high-end market of smart electric vehicles since its listing.

According to the annual report of No.9 electric vehicle, in 2020, the sales volume of No.9 intelligent two-wheeled electric vehicle will exceed 100,000 in the first year of listing; In 2021, the production and sales volume of No.9 intelligent two-wheeled electric vehicle reached 420,000, with a year-on-year growth rate of 300%; In 2022, the sales volume of No.9 intelligent two-wheeled electric vehicle was 826,000, with a year-on-year growth rate of 96.6%.

According to the data of "White Paper on Two-wheeled Electric Vehicle Industry in China in 2023", Company No.9 has always been the first in the high-end market of two-wheeled electric vehicles by continuously focusing on brand technology innovation. According to the comprehensive sales data of two-wheeled electric vehicles in 2022, among the high-end product lines of more than 5,000 yuan, the sales volume of Company No.9 is in the first position in the industry, among which among the top10 models with sales volume of more than 5,000 yuan, Company No.9 has 8 models on the list.

In October, 2020, Company No.9 was listed in science and technology innovation board, Shanghai Stock Exchange, and successfully completed a gorgeous turn of a startup.

02 high-end positioning, but in the embarrassing position of small profits.

With the rapid development of No.9 company, its revenue level has been rising in recent years.

According to the annual report of Company No.9, in 2020, Company No.9 realized annual revenue of 6 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 30.88%, turning losses into profits for the first time, and the net profit attributable to owners of the parent company was 73.3264 million yuan; In 2021, Company No.9 achieved annual revenue of 9.146 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 52.36%, and net profit attributable to owners of the parent company was 411 million yuan; In 2022, the revenue exceeded 10.1 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 10.7%, and the net profit returned to the mother was 451 million yuan.

However, although the operating income statement of Company No.9 is strong, its gross profit margin is not optimistic or even ugly.

According to the financial report of No.9 company, although the company’s operating income has increased year by year and the growth rate is not low, its gross profit margin has been declining all the way.

From 2018 to 2021, its gross profit margin was 28.86%, 27.42%, 27.69% and 23.23% respectively.

Although compared with other two-wheeled electric vehicles, the gross profit margin of No.9 electric vehicle is very considerable, but as a brand focusing on the high-end market, its revenue has increased well, but its gross profit margin has been declining, which is not a good sign.

All along, Company No.9 has been in an awkward position of small profits, which has a great relationship with the deep bundling of Xiaomi Company.

In the early days, relying on the big tree of Xiaomi Group, Company No.9 did not worry about order income even though its wings were not full. In 2017, Xiaomi Group contributed more than 1 billion yuan in orders to Company No.9, accounting for 74% of its total revenue; In 2018, Company No.9 received an order of 2.434 billion yuan from Xiaomi Group.

However, although the income is good, it is difficult for suppliers to obtain high profits because Xiaomi products win with cost performance.

According to the prospectus No.9, the products of Company No.9 are in a state of small profits because Xiaomi products are oriented to cost performance and mainly adopt the profit sharing model. From 2017 to 2019, the gross profit margin of Xiaomi’s products sold by No.9 Company was 22.46%, 20.79% and 15.11% respectively, while the gross profit margin of No.9 Company’s own brand was as high as 42.58%, and the gross profit margin of Xiaomi’s products was significantly lower than that of its own brand products.

In order to increase the gross profit margin, Company No.9 chose to gradually untie Xiaomi Company and reduce the proportion of Xiaomi products in the company’s operating income.

I have to say that this move has indeed improved the gross profit margin of Company No.9.. According to the financial report, in 2022, the gross profit margin of Company No.9 rose to 25.97%, up 2.74 percentage points year-on-year. However, the net interest rate of Company No.9 also dropped to 4.43%, down 0.03 percentage point from the same period of last year.

At the same time, after leaving Xiaomi, the performance growth of Company No.9 is basically at a standstill.

Although the revenue and net profit of Company No.9 in 2022 still showed a double increase trend, compared with 2021, the growth rate of revenue and net profit returned to the mother dropped significantly.

In this regard, Company No.9 explained to the media that due to the epidemic situation, the logistics in some areas was interrupted, which led to the shortage of some important raw materials and parts of the company, resulting in delayed delivery.

However, Zheshang Securities analyzed that there will be some pressure on the short-term income of Company No.9, which is actually related to the decline of Xiaomi channel income.

Obviously, although Company No.9 wants to leave Xiaomi to achieve soaring, it seems that the road ahead is not easy.

03 quality problems are frequent, and the prospect of No.9 is not optimistic.

What’s even more embarrassing is that although Company No.9 relies on powerful intelligent technology to achieve cornering overtaking in the two-wheeled electric vehicle market, its product quality problems are frequent, so it has been criticized by many consumers.

According to Shandong Business Daily, in June 2022, Ms. Liao, who lives in Shantou, Guangdong Province, bought a No.9 n70c electric bicycle worth 3,599 yuan in a local No.9 electric bicycle shop.

Unexpectedly, less than half a year after the purchase, there were various failures. Although several dashboards were replaced, they still failed to solve the problem. There are still system failures such as black screen, Bluetooth unable to connect, and APP showing that the vehicle is offline, but the vehicle has been unable to start and use normally, and it has become an electric brick.

On the black cat complaint platform, there are more than 8,100 complaints about No.9, most of which are about quality problems such as "the battery starved to death", "the intelligent system failed during the warranty period" and "the electric vehicle has great safety hazards".

In addition to frequent quality problems, consumers are also very dissatisfied with the after-sales service of No.9 company.

A consumer said on the black cat complaint platform that his No.9 electric car had 40 batteries left, but it broke down and couldn’t be started at all. After contacting the store, the other party asked him to send it to a 12-kilometer store by himself. After contact, no one handled it, and the store said that only one master could not come to the door. He was very disappointed with the after-sales attitude of Company No.9..

In the sampling inspection of relevant departments, the No.9 electric vehicle also failed many times.

In October 2022, Beijing Fengtai District Market Supervision Administration announced the results of product quality supervision and spot check in 2021, which showed that a No.9 electric bicycle produced by No.9 Technology Co., Ltd. was found to be unqualified, and the items involved were "speed warning sound and short circuit protection".

With more and more consumers complaining about the quality of No.9 electric vehicle after use, it will inevitably bring bad reputation to No.9 company.

Recently, in order to find a new growth curve, Company No.9 began to touch the "other economy", hoping to find a new competitive advantage in the unique consumption field of young women.

However, although this group has great consumption potential, it obviously has higher requirements and pays more attention to consumption quality, experience and service.

If Company No.9 can’t actively improve after-sales service and product quality, then the new growth curve may be just a mirage and may not be realized.

Although the dream of Company No.9 is good and it has advantages in the field of intelligence development, it still needs a lot of efforts to make the blue ocean bigger and the red sea blue.
