Yang Zi: The Cost of Adapting to the Aesthetic Standards of the Adult World

  In "The Rest of Your Life, Please Teach Me More", Yang Zi and Xiao Zhan can be said to be the top combination of traffic. However, the old routines and the repeated characters until the end of the broadcast, the volume it harvested, compared with the traffic levels of the two leading actors, can almost be said to be an upside-down failure

  "Agarwood Like Crumbs" is almost a one-to-one replica of "Fragrant Honey Like Frost": starring Yang Zi, an online novel adaptation, an ancient love that spans the past and present, but it failed to replicate the success of 2018. The episode has been broadcast for two-thirds, and has not yet shown a score on Douban; looking at it in another dimension, it has just passed the volume of 42,000 people "watched", and "Fragrant Honey Like Frost" exceeds the mark of 180,000 "seen", which also just shows the quantitative standard between "paste" and "out of the circle".

  But whether this "paste" is an external problem of the type of ancient puppet drama, or an internal problem of the stagnation of Yang Zi’s acting skills in similar roles as an actor, it may have to be viewed from a more macroscopic perspective, so this year’s other drama "Rest of Life, Please Teach" has become the reference object. Compared with "Agarwood Fragrance", "Rest of Life, Please Teach" seems to have a more "explosive" sense of vision. Yang Zi and Xiao Zhan’s traffic top match combination, and the urban background is also easier for people to enter. However, perhaps because it was filmed in 2019, the routine was old and the characters were repeated until the end of the broadcast. Compared with the traffic level of the two leading actors, the volume it received can almost be said to be an upside-down failure.

  The decline in the reputation of the two major dramas has brought a point of discussion about Yang Zi. From the perspective of the actor’s life cycle, Yang Zi, who is about to turn 30 this year, is indeed entering a new era. She, who has come all the way from a child star, may be the one who knows the most about the anxiety of appearance among the actresses of the same generation. The interview content that has been repeatedly mentioned, Song Dandan’s kind advice to Yang Zi to "grow up like this, or stop acting", although cruel, also shows the truth. "Grow up like this" refers not to the appearance standard of ordinary people in daily life, but to the appearance ecology of the entertainment industry that takes appearance as an important ranking standard. In her childhood, Yang Zi could still walk beyond this standard by relying on the age limit of her character and her own commonality, but when she grew up, she had to face the aesthetic standards of the adult world.

  The girl next door and the adult world

  When we look back at "Family with Children", Yang Zi’s performance is indeed stunning, but this kind of stunning is limited to the role of Xiaoxue: the child next door, excellent, proud, and strong self-esteem. The affinity of the girl next door, a description with a sense of praise, is actually a bit cruel to Yang Zi as an actor, it points to "not beautiful enough" and "ordinary". But a family melodrama like "Family with Children" complements this kind of ordinary, which is the local atmosphere that the audience needs. The delicate situation of the girl as the eldest sister in a multi-child family, the sensitivity of the adolescent girl, and the ruthlessness and pride of the Beijing girl are part of Yang Zi’s performance, and part of it belongs to herself in that period.

  But the hard truth is that girlhood and national daughters are a state of very short shelf life and time expiration, similar to the "child star curse" often mentioned in Hollywood. Many actors who have become famous as child stars have to face the road of rediscovering their acting direction. Shirley Temple is the best example of losing the magic of the screen in adulthood. In the significantly different Eastern context and Chinese entertainment industry, its cultural background and entertainment ecology have created a more brutal environment. A large number of actors choose to extend their girlhood and girlhood as much as possible. This path is not for everyone. The shelf life of the appearance and the appropriate matching of the characters are indispensable. Zhou Xun is an example of the extremely long girlhood of the screen, and there is a head traffic like Zhao Liying in the field of TV dramas.

  The appearance conditions determined the path of "prolonging the girl’s sense", which was not suitable for Yang Zi, and the reason was to return to Xiaoxue’s approved affinity. This kind of girl’s sense, which was not equivalent to the "beauty" painting, had almost no acting advantages when she grew up, especially in this era of flattery to beauty.

  The burnout period is a good proof. After "Family with Children 2" in 2006, Yang Zi, who entered puberty, has works but does not enter the hot discussion field. From today’s perspective of all young traffic, it can be defined as a low period. For Yang Zi at this stage, acting is not the problem, but appearance is the threshold.

  Yang Zi’s problem may be the problem of ordinary girls. She can’t stay in her teenage years forever, nor can she be put into the characters that use beautiful women as templates in the market. But Yang Zi’s choice is to get close to that template and do everything she can, even if the price is to sacrifice her acting skills.

  Moderation and performance singularity

  In 2014, "War in Changsha" was Yang Zi’s highest-rated work. In addition to the bonus of the team, Yang Zi could also make a richer, layered and emotional performance in the performance at that time. The character changes that grew up and woke up in the turmoil could not be said to be profound, but there was a kind of popular moving. But she was still not suitable for the role. Age is one thing, and the Beijing accent also makes people play. The heroine of the cast was not her at the beginning, and the temporary role change brought this turnaround. In the later stage of the story, Yang Zi’s performance was even more cramped, unable to understand or support the heaviness of the turmoil of the big era.

  "Ode to Joy" and "Dear, Love" should be regarded as the two works with the highest degree of character matching between Yang Zi and her characters. Qiu Yingying’s cramped resume at the job fair, and her flexible position as a mobile person in the relationship between the four girls were all very suitable for Yang Zi at that time, and they were also within the control of her acting performance and performance. But we can already see the price she paid for her beauty from now on, especially when her facial expressions are strong, and the incongruity between her facial features has begun to destroy her acting skills.

  Compared to Qiu Yingying, Tong Nian in "Dear, Loved" is not so down-to-earth in terms of setting, soft and cute straight-A student is even a bit of an overhead character, so Yang Zi’s Tong Nian will give people a strong sense of "reading white" when saying any lines involving professional parts. This kind of professional performance makes people feel abruptly awkward, and the traces are as heavy as a mask painted on the character’s face. Similarly, there is 2021’s "Female Psychologist".

  From 2016’s "Ode to Joy" to the present, Yang Zi is indeed gradually approaching the adult aesthetic standards of the entertainment industry, and has also taken on many roles of beautiful women. Accompanied by this, the face muscles are stiff, the emotional details of the face are lost, and the scope of micro-expression activities is limited. This disconnection between the actor’s appearance and acting skills is most obvious in Yang Zi’s first role as a beautiful woman, trying to create a fairy and cold texture in "Qingyun Zhi". In the latest "Agarwood Fragrance as Crumbs", even when angry or angry, Yang Zi can only rely on the eyes, brows, and mouth to touch the face, expressing emotions very limited.

  But what’s interesting is that on this road that is gradually approaching the aesthetic standards of adults in the entertainment industry and is gradually limited in performance control, "Fragrant Honey Sinking Ashes Like Frost" has instead become a special existence. Jinmi, who ate the Absolute Love Pill, is ruthless and loveless, so in the pre-awakening part, it can be rewarded with numb external stimulation and emotional offensive. This contrast between intensity and indifference is instead an integral part of the Xianxia drama "Su Sense"; in the mid-stage, the part with a veil can cover up the lack of performance to the greatest extent and take advantage of the performance of the eyes. Therefore, the success of "Fragrant Honey Sinking Ashes Like Frost" is due to diverse factors, and the shortcomings in the actor’s career happen to be stuck in the texture and gap of the character’s characteristics. This is the unique singularity in the actor’s career that cannot be repeated or continued.

  The irreplaceability of "not beautiful enough"

  Returning to "Agarwood as Crumbs", when we are already tired of Yang Zi’s quirky aesthetic, the fairy tales of the past and present cannot provide a deep performance space, and the protagonist’s dull and rigid facial expressions cannot support the sadomasochistic love that spans generations, so the audience will no longer pay the bill.

  But a topic worth discussing is that we, as the audience, are very accepting of Yang Zi’s role as the "beauty" in the setting. The daughter of the flower god, the incarnation of the sun, and the white snake are all like this. Objectively speaking, they are all characters that Yang Zi cannot suppress with his appearance at this stage.

  If we classify Xianxia dramas and idol dramas from the audience’s mentality, most of the successful ones meet the audience’s two expectations. One is the "sense of imagination" that is far away from life and looking at the legend, and the other is the "sense of substitution" that is close to oneself and immersed in the drama. No one will feel that they are Zhao Yazhi in "The Legend of the New White Lady", and very few people will replace Liu Yifei in "Menghualu". Their "beauty" is a highlight and a barrier, isolating the audience under the stage. When we look at them, we are reading the legend.

  But another type of work is completely different, represented by the popular works starred by Yang Zi, which may be used as a reference. Today’s Yang Zi and Ariel Lin in the "Kiss of Mischief" period have certain similarities. They are cute, but not too beautiful, and sometimes they are not even very good-looking. The performances are flawed, stiff and embarrassing, but it is these rough rough edges that make us feel that we can be "them". Their affinity, sense of neighborliness and dullness are not offensive in any way, and they can also be replaced in the viewing imagination. So the audience gets a sense of substitution in the viewing, and their substitutability of "not beautiful enough" just constitutes the irreplaceability of actors in idol drama products. We see them as entering a legend.

  The paradox here is that from the perspective of audience psychology, "not beautiful enough" has become the key factor for Yang Zi’s success, but from the perspective of industry standards, "not beautiful enough" has become the appearance anxiety imposed on her. She made a choice for this, and paid a price. As a woman, will "they" who live in other social fields have more choices?

Bull Group officially announced supermodel Liu Wen as the brand spokesperson, launching a blockbuster new butterfly wing and ultra-thin switch

  After becoming the first Chinese aerospace partner in the civil electrical industry, the safe electricity expert Bull has once again come out of the circle with a sense of fashion and high-end!

  On May 22, Bull officially announced that supermodel Liu Wen became the brand spokesperson. The butterfly wing ultra-thin switch advertising blockbuster and endorsement posters presented by Bull and Liu Wen successively appeared, kicking off the cooperation. In the poster, Liu Wen’s figure is like a jumping butterfly, showing high-end and fashion.

  In recent years, Bull has not only strived for excellence in products and technologies, but also made frequent innovation and breakthroughs. In terms of design, it has also joined hands with domestic and foreign design masters to lead the industry trend. In the continuous journey of breaking the circle, Bull has gradually refreshed the original impression of the outside world, allowing more consumers to recognize the fashionable, high-end and technological side of Bull. This time Bull joined hands with Liu Wen, which can be described as a two-way rush for "fashion and professionalism".

  A two-way journey on "fashion and professionalism"

  One is an expert in safe electricity use, and the other is a fashion pioneer. The two seem to be far apart, but they have an amazing fit. Whether it is professional or fashion, Bull and Liu Wen show the same quality and concept.

  You can get a glimpse through a set of data. Founded in 1995, Bull has always adhered to the concept of "professional focus, long road, and be the first", and has made "safe electricity use" to the extreme. It has achieved the industry’s first place in the two categories of sockets and switches. According to Champ Consulting Group data, 10 Chinese households and 7 households use Bull. In 2021, the total sales volume of Bull switch products in the country exceeded 500 million pieces. These data reflect that Bull’s safety and professionalism are deeply trusted by Chinese families.

  In the face of work, Liu Wen also has the attitude of "doing small things to the extreme". Liu Wen once said in an interview, "If I want to do something, I will use my 100% efforts to do it well." It is also adhering to the attitude of going all out that Liu Wen occupies an irreplaceable place in the modeling circle with her solid business ability. As for the word fashion, Liu Wen has always had her own understanding. She believes that fashion is always changing, and the simpler things are more impressive, but simplicity is not without details. The decoration style of Liu Wen’s studio is still like his understanding of fashion, with both simplicity and quality, showing high-end.

  "Bull is a well-known brand. This time, Bull’s new product made my eyes shine. I really like its simple and fashionable design style," Liu Wen said of the experience of working with Bull. "I am very happy to join hands with Bull to interpret the brand’s new style."

  It is understood that the bull butterfly wing ultra-thin switch is designed by Habits, a well-known Italian designer team from Milan, the world capital of art, who has served Ferragamo, Versace, Chloé and other luxury brands. It focuses on the perfect integration of Italian minimalist design and Chinese aesthetics, fully demonstrating the bull’s fashion sense, product power and design power.

  When evaluating the design concept of the Bull Butterfly Wing Ultra-thin Switch, Liu Wen shared, "The design inspiration of this butterfly wing product is derived from the concept of the Bull brand constantly leading innovation and breaking through itself." In fact, fashion not only refers to figurative clothing, but also reflects an "invisible" attitude. In this regard, Bull coincides with Liu Wen. Since the industry innovated the use of IMR technology (in-mold forming transfer printing technology) to solve the process problem behind the cookie-cutter white switch in the home improvement market, Bull has been at the forefront of the industry in terms of fashion leadership.

  In recent years, Bull has been striving for product excellence, continuous innovation, and continuous cooperation with domestic and foreign design masters in design, leading the industry trend. It is reported that Bull has launched a variety of fashion products including IMR color switches, high-crystal glass switches, Swarovski crystal switches, etc. With its simple design style and hard-core technology strength, it has won more than 20 domestic and foreign design awards such as the German iF Award and the Red Dot Award.

  Bull, which ranks first in the wall switch socket category, chose to cooperate with Liu Wen because of its fashionable and professional characteristics that are highly compatible with the brand. In other words, this cooperation between the two parties marks that Bull will once again lead a new chapter in the ultra-thin aesthetics of switches.

  Based on aerospace-grade safety quality, leading the trend of ultra-thin switch aesthetics

  Butterfly Wing Ultra-thin Switch shows Bull’s focused thinking on the future trend of switch products, and is also regarded as a masterpiece of Bull’s innovative butterfly change after surpassing international brands. In recent years, Bull has been innovating technology and actively deploying large-panel ultra-thin switch products. And Bull Butterfly Wing Ultra-thin Switch integrates a more flexible design concept on the basis of safety and ultra-thin, truly achieving more simplicity and fashion.

  It is reported that the Bull Butterfly Wing Ultra-Thin Switch was inspired by the Italian designer team from the allusions of Zhuang Zhou Mengdie and incorporated the light flapping wings of butterflies into the product. At the same time, the Butterfly Wing Ultra-Thin Switch breaks through the boundaries of traditional switch "thickness". The panel is hidden in the wall with the ultimate ultra-thin 6.4 mm, which is 50% less than the thickness of traditional switches. It is the thinnest switch product ever made by Bull.

  "This butterfly wing and ultra-thin switch is as light and thin as a butterfly wing, and it seems to be flapping butterfly wings when pressed," Liu Wen said in an interview. "I think its design is very simple and fashionable. I believe that it will be installed on the wall of the home, which will bring a very pleasant sense of use and a good sense of use."

  On the other hand, in addition to achieving the "light" aesthetic experience, the Bull Butterfly Wing Ultra-thin Switch also has four aerospace-grade quality characteristics: high temperature resistance, electric shock resistance, anti-deformation and anti-rust. Specifically, the Bull Butterfly Wing Ultra-thin Switch uses a high-flame-retardant PC material that can withstand high temperatures of 850 ° C as the shell, and pioneered the use of high-rigidity fixed frame and high-quality silver-plated copper and other precious metal materials, making the product more firm, stable, safer and longer-lasting.

  The process of pursuing aerospace-grade quality is not easy. 81 engineers spent 200 days and nights, accumulated more than 93,300 man-hours of research and development, and passed 214 rigorous tests in five application scenarios, which created the aerospace-grade quality of the bull butterfly wing and ultra-thin switch quadruple protection technology, and realized the dual construction of "safety technology and design aesthetics" in the home environment.

  It is worth mentioning that the Bull Butterfly Wing Ultra-thin Switch is only the "tip of the iceberg" that Bull has pursued for decades in terms of technological innovation, product quality, and fashion design.

  According to the data, by the end of 2022, Bull had obtained 2,379 valid patent authorizations, 59 software copyrights, and participated in 118 national, industry and group standards; at the same time, in the field of switches, Bull has established the world’s largest switch socket production and R & D base, with more than 150 highly automated production lines, more than 5,000 product types, and an annual output of up to about 600 million pieces. In addition, by combining technology and aesthetics, Bull’s products have won the German iF Award, Red Dot Award, Red Star Award and many other domestic and foreign design awards.

  A butterfly wing ultra-thin switch that combines fashion, technology and safety reflects Bull’s 28-year path of "professional focus, long road, and being the first". It also bears the responsibility and original intention of protecting the safety of electricity for hundreds of millions of households and leading the fashion trend lifestyle. In the future, while adhering to safety and quality, Bull and its switch categories will continue to write a new chapter in fashion aesthetics.

The sprint bike in the "hardest hit area", the top ten stimulant in sports, is the most typical.

  Tencent Sports News Recently, Wang Hongni, a famous triathlete in China, was found to have used illegal drugs and was banned for two years. The triathlete, which is considered as a "pile of medicine cans", was once again pushed to the forefront of public opinion. Looking at all kinds of sports in sports, ten sports are the "hardest hit areas" for doping. Although the anti-doping organizations keep conducting targeted inspections, they are still banned repeatedly!


  short-distance run


  Doping is the best way to improve the athletes’ instantaneous physiological function, so in the sprint events that need explosive power most, doping incidents are repeatedly banned, and many of those big stars who are suddenly in the clouds are later laid on the altar. The most typical example is that at the Seoul Olympic Games in 1988, Ben Johnson won the men’s 100m gold medal in 9.79 seconds and broke the world record. However, in the subsequent urine test, Ben Johnson was found to have taken synthetic steroids. In addition, gatling and Montgomery, two men who had challenged the world record, were also banned for two years. Jones, a famous American sprinter after Cojna, was also banned for taking steroids and returned to the Olympic gold medal. Ironically, Cojna, the greatest athlete in the history of women’s sprint, was also suspected of using stimulants and leading to her early death, so she still could not bury her body after her death, but had to undergo an autopsy to get her innocence back!


  Tour de France:


  Whether the Tour de France will survive or not is a hot topic in the sports field some time ago, because this dirty sport is challenging the purity of sports. International Olympic Committee President Rogge said that bicycles will not be excluded from the Olympic Games for the time being, which is already lenient. Armstrong, an American legendary hero known as "Forrest Gump" in reality and winner of the seven-time Tour de France, has created countless glories in his sports career, and his story of overcoming cancer and reaching the peak has inspired countless people today. But less than a year after his retirement, it broke the news that he had taken stimulants many times in the competition. For a time, the controversy about whether Armstrong was a lonely hero or a drug champion spread all over the world. Landis and ulrich were even worse than Armstrong. They were banned and deprived of the greatest honor they had ever won. In particular, Landis, an American, keeps going to court to prove his innocence, but it is useless for him to keep his mouth shut in the face of scientific evidence.


  strong and handsome


  Although this event is not an Olympic event, it has become a frequent doping event because of its good promotion in various countries, great visual impact and more commercial intervention. Bodybuilders need to stimulate their muscles, so some athletes should often take some so-called tonics to make their muscles develop. According to the statistics of the Anti-Doping Committee of the Chinese Olympic Committee for many years, the number of times bodybuilders tested positive for drugs is among the top three every year. Just this year, the decision on punishing bodybuilder Jiang Xi for violating the prohibition of doping was issued, and Jiang Xi was suspended from participating in national bodybuilding activities for two years from July 21, 2006 to July 20, 2008.


  There are many incidents of taking medicine in swimming, and many famous big-name stars are not immune from negative rumors. The most typical example is the Australian flying fish "Thorpe storm", which was first stirred up by the French newspaper L ‘Equipe. The newspaper L ‘Equipe reported that a doping test in May last year showed that Thorpe’s testosterone and luteinizing hormone obviously exceeded the standard, and these hormones acted like steroids, which could obviously improve athletes’ performance. Thorpe denied this, and was obviously greatly stimulated, so that at the press conference, what people saw was not the torpedoes in the past, but more like a sad and helpless child. It was not until this year that the Australian Olympic Committee cleared Thorpe. China women’s swimming team was also troubled by doping. In 1994, the glory of the World Swimming Championships was attacked by some foreign media for taking banned drugs. In 2000, Wu Yanyan, a famous Chinese athlete, tested positive for drugs and was banned for four years, missing the Olympic Games.


  weightlifting


  There are countless doping incidents in weightlifting, and a large number of lesser-known athletes are banned every year. Of course, well-known athletes often try their own laws. Mutlu of Turkey was once called a "weightlifting prodigy". At the Atlanta Olympic Games in 1996, Mutlu, 23, set a new world snatch record and easily won his first Olympic gold medal with an advantage of 7.5 kilograms ahead of the second place. At the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000, Mutlu, a "pocket strongman", was in full swing, not only easily defending his title, but also breaking three world records in snatch, clean and jerk and total score. At the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, Mutlu, 31, became a weightlifter who won three consecutive Olympic titles. However, in the 2005 European Championship, Mutlu was found to have used Nuolong and was banned, which also cast a shadow over the veteran’s declining state to participate in the Beijing Olympic Games.


  wrestling


  Wrestling emphasizes the use of strength and physical contact, so doping incidents are also common in this project. Domestically, Gao Yanzhi, a wrestler from Shandong Province, was suspended for two years for taking a diuretic, a prohibited drug, after testing in Athens Olympic Games. The foreign example is even more shocking. American male wrestler Benoit killed his wife and son because he took too many steroids! This steroid can strengthen muscles after taking it, but it can also cause emotional outbursts such as paranoia, depression and steroid rage. Therefore, the police said that they thought that Benoit was taking stimulants, which led to the whole person’s emotional loss of control and eventually violence.


  triathlon


  From the name "triathlon", it is not difficult to see the fierce competition. Only "iron man" can laugh at the end, and doping is undoubtedly the best tool to turn "man" into "iron man". On July 1st, 2005, the Swiss Olympic Committee announced that McMahon, a Swiss female triathlete and winner of the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, had been found to have used the illegal drug EPO. McMahon admitted that she had taken stimulants, but she argued that it was because she needed stimulants to treat her illness, not to improve her athletic performance. Wang Hongni, the champion of the Asian Games in China, was declared unqualified by the triathlon official website on October 9th, which made the list of doping in this event filled with the names of China people.


  shot


  As a strength-oriented throwing event, many athletes in the shot put competition use illegal drugs at risk. During the Athens Olympic Games, Yong Quest, chairman of the International Olympic Committee Medical Committee, revealed in Athens that Russian player Korzalenko, who won the women’s shot put championship in this Olympic Games, failed the doping test! Korzalenko was deprived of his gold medal in the indoor track and field championships in 1999 because of doping. This is the second time he has committed a crime against the wind. Hunter, the husband of American female sprinter Jones, was found to have taken banned drugs such as steroids after the 1999 World Championships, and then he was banned from the IAAF for two years, so he missed the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000.


  Rugby


  Known as the most antagonistic sports football doping scandal in the world, Ha Silei, a retired American professional football player, revealed that according to his estimation, at least half of the players in the league were taking steroids before drug testing began in the late 1980s. He said, "If you don’t eat, you can’t be as strong as others and can’t keep up with their speed. This is the only reason why we take medicine, because the competition is too fierce. I was still taking steroids six weeks before I decided to end my career. " Keith Jones, an NBA Rockets trainer, said in a recent interview that during his years as a trainer, he saw too many football players taking steroid stimulants.


  Tennis:


  It is reasonable to say that the effect of doping in tennis, which emphasizes the change of skills and lines, will not be too great. However, with the prevalence of strength-playing, there are also many drug users in tennis. Poorta and canas have unfortunately become "leaders" in their respective fields. In addition, this list also includes Bulgarian beautiful girl Karatancheva. Nowadays, the names of Poorta and Karatancheva are rarely mentioned again, but canas has made a high-profile comeback after the suspension period, becoming one of the few players who have defeated Swiss ball king Federer in a row in recent years.

Can China Automobile Design Change the World? Geely automobile seizes the commanding heights of the industry

In the new era of electrified and intelligent automobiles, the international competitiveness and influence of China automobile enterprises are constantly improving. In order to promote the transformation from China manufacturing to China creation, China needs to create a brand-new design discourse system with its own characteristics.

On December 6th, the 10th Anniversary Forum of 2023 International Automobile Design and Geely Design was held in Shanghai. Dozens of influential figures covering production, learning, research and media were invited to attend and discuss with Geely how "good design has the power to change the world".

"Design is crucial. Design is not only an important reference standard for consumers to choose products, but also a key factor to determine product quality and the core competitiveness of Geely Automobile. " Yan Jiayue, CEO of Geely Automobile Group, said so.

According to reports, since its establishment in 2013, Geely Design has taken it as its responsibility to promote China’s independent automobile design in the new era. From "Damei China Car" to the rise of China’s independent design, to "Geely Yinhe" taking the lead in creating a new paradigm of China design in the era of smart electric. Geely constantly drives China automobile to climb the value peak again and again with its design, which affects the trend of automobile design in China and even the world.

Among them, Geely Yinhe E8 is the way out for Geely’s design-not compromising the existing conditions, constantly fighting against the entropy increase of design, and finding a beautiful order in the disorderly pattern.

Liu Ning, president of China Industrial Design Association, said: "We are very happy to see that it is an outstanding representative of an independent brand like Geely who is developing into a smart electric travel and energy service technology-based enterprise with global design competitiveness and influence, and constantly winning the recognition of the international community and global consumers."

Facing the opportunities and challenges of the times, China’s automobile design must change from single-point breakthrough to system capacity improvement. As Liu Ning said, "The design of new energy vehicles in China is not only the design of a single model, but also the design of the whole system, the whole value chain and the whole industrial chain".

If China’s automobile design wants to establish its own voice in the world, it needs to cooperate with all parties inside and outside the industry to participate in the promotion. The independent brand represented by Geely will promote the deep integration of Industry-University-Research, cultivate the future new force of China automobile design, and run out of the "acceleration" of independent training of talents.

In this forum, Geely Design, together with China Academy of Fine Arts, released the White Paper on China Automobile Design Discourse System (First Edition) in the field of automobile design in China, aiming at exploring the forward-looking thinking of China automobile design theory and system construction under the great changes. The release of this white paper has supplemented and improved the research system of automobile design in China, or it will become a landmark stop in the design history of automobile industry in China.

This year is the tenth year for Geely to explore the road of design. In the future, Geely Automobile will continue to contribute to the "good design" proposal of the world automobile development process and lead the industry to a new height in the development of the global automobile industry.

Will artificial intelligence replace human beings at present, and there will be real intelligence?

Give the answer first: at present, artificial intelligence can’t replace human beings at all, nor can it have real wisdom.

There are 100 billion neurons in the human brain. Why do humans have wisdom? According to scientists’ conclusion, because the number of neurons in human brain has exceeded a limit, wisdom has emerged.

ChatGPT has 175 billion neuron parameters. If you keep training, will ChatGPT have real wisdom? Or continue to increase the parameters, for example, to 1 trillion parameters, will ChatGPT have real wisdom?

The answer is no.

Although ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence based on convolutional neural network, simulates human neurons in its underlying mechanism, one parameter is equivalent to a human neuron. But the way of computer neuron simulation is very simple and crude. In addition to the values of 0 and 1, there are also phase values between human neurons. The neurons simulated by computer have only the values of 0 and 1, but there is no phase value. The amount of data transmitted by computer neurons may be only one tenth to one percent of that transmitted by human neurons.

Moreover, the links between human neurons are very complicated. Apart from horizontal links, there are vertical links. There are 100 billion neurons in human beings, each neuron has more than 1,000 outward links, and there are about 100 trillion synapse between nerves. Computer simulation of the links between neurons is extremely simple, only related to the upper and lower levels.

Therefore, even if the current artificial intelligence based on convolutional neural network increases neuron parameters, it is impossible to change from quantitative change to qualitative change and become truly intelligent.

Neural network of human brain;

Computer convolutional neural network;

The above is from a micro point of view, from a macro point of view, ChatGPT is so powerful, in fact, TA only has inductive ability, but does not have reasoning ability. That is to say, in theory, TA doesn’t understand what we humans train TA for. TA just remembers the law, knows the problem, and that’s how to solve it, and doesn’t understand what the problem is.

For example, artificial intelligence can’t understand the real addition and mathematical rules. For example, we taught ChatGPT to add, subtract, multiply and divide, but gave ChatGPT four numbers, (1, 1, 6, 2), and let ChatGPT use these four numbers to calculate 24 points by adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing. Humans have the ability of reasoning, and can calculate 6*(2+1+1)=24, but if ChatGPT has not been taught the calculation method of 24 points and knows addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, TA can’t be calculated.

That is to say, what ChatGPT has been taught can be summarized by TA, and what has not been taught, ChatGPT can’t deduce what it has learned from what it has already learned.

ChatGPT has no reasoning ability, only inductive ability, unlike human beings, which have both inductive ability and reasoning ability, so human beings are creative and have real wisdom.

On the surface, artificial intelligence such as ChatGPT is creative. For example, you can draw a picture with Stable Diffusion, but this is actually not creation, but Stable Diffusion recombines the templates that have been trained to draw countless times before through different patterns.

As far as inductive ability is concerned, ChatGPT can be trained by the whole human knowledge base, and it can become the strongest inductive ability in history, but its reasoning ability is 0.

Personally, I think that as long as human beings exist, they will certainly pursue eternal life tirelessly. There are two ways to pursue immortality. One way is the great development of artificial intelligence. In the future, artificial intelligence will have real wisdom to replace human beings, or human consciousness will be uploaded to computers and become virtual life. In any case, silicon-based life has replaced carbon-based life and become eternal life.

The other way is that we human beings are carbon-based life, and the cells of our bodies can be infinitely updated, so naturally we can live forever. At present, the maximum life span of human beings is 120 years old, which is over 70 years old. Due to the excessive division of human body cells, mistakes will occur and they will become cancer cells. Cancer cells are not controlled by the immune system, encroaching on the resources of the whole body, and eventually human beings will die of systemic failure. In addition, many human cells can’t divide, or divide for a limited number of times, such as nerve cells, which are difficult to update. When people are old, brain cells are necrotic and can’t be updated, Alzheimer’s disease will occur, heart cells can’t be updated, and eventually they will die of heart failure.

In nature, there are many lives and cells that can divide and reproduce indefinitely without making mistakes. For example, HeLa cells have been cultivated for countless generations and are still full of reproductive ability. HeLa cells have actually achieved eternal life. Lighthouse jellyfish, for example, is a reversible creature. If the deep-sea environment of the earth does not change much, and there are accidents, lighthouse jellyfish can live forever and never die.

Why can’t human beings live forever on the basis of carbon-based life? Because the human body is too complicated. Mankind has made great progress in information technology, but it has made slow progress in biotechnology.

Anyway, from the current point of view, no matter which eternal life path, whether artificial intelligence replaces human beings, silicon-based life replaces carbon-based life, or human beings themselves can be infinitely updated and become eternal carbon-based life with wisdom. The goals of these two roads are very, very far away.

AI decision is not controlled? Past lives who knows AI in one minute.

Artificial intelligence (AI) means that machines simulate human intelligent behavior by means of learning, reasoning and automation technology. The rise of AI industry originated from the field of computer science, and began to develop since 1950s, but the period of real rapid development was in recent years, especially after 2010. This paper will make a deep analysis of the AI industry from the perspectives of the development history of the AI industry, the upstream and downstream interpretation of the industrial chain, the analysis of key companies and people, and the analysis of industry hotspots.

First, the development process of AI industry

Since 1950, the AI industry has started research and experiments for decades, but it didn’t really enter the outbreak period until after 2010. In 2010, Watson of IBM was in Jeopardy! Beating two famous players in the game attracted global attention. Since then, AlphaGo has defeated the top players in the Go game, which proves the powerful ability of AI technology. In 2017, AlphaGo Zero developed by Google’s DeepMind company defeated the previous AlphaGo, showing a higher level of intelligence. In addition, with the progress of hardware technology, the application of AI industry has become more and more extensive, such as face recognition, autonomous driving, smart home and other fields, which has brought the development of AI industry into a new stage.

Second, the upstream and downstream interpretation of the industrial chain

The industrial chain of AI industry can be divided into three parts: hardware, algorithm and application. In terms of hardware, it mainly includes chips, sensors, servers and other equipment. The algorithm part is the core of AI technology, mainly including machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing and other technologies. The application part is the landing application of AI technology, involving artificial intelligence medical care, smart home, autonomous driving, smart city and other fields.

In the upstream of the industrial chain, chip manufacturers are an important part of the AI industry. At present, the world’s major AI chip manufacturers include Intel, NVIDIA, AMD, Broadcom and other companies. The chip products of these companies can be used in cloud computing, Internet of Things and other scenarios. In the middle reaches, AI algorithm companies are key players, such as Baidu, Google, IBM, Microsoft and other companies have their own AI algorithm research teams. In addition, there are some AI companies that focus on a certain field, such as artificial intelligence medical companies. Downstream, AI application companies are the main components of the AI industry chain, including artificial intelligence medical care, smart home, autonomous driving and other companies. These companies have applied AI technology to actual scenes, which has brought great commercial value.

Third, the analysis of key companies and people

In the AI industry, some key companies and figures have attracted much attention. Among them, Google and Facebook are considered as leading companies in the AI field. Google has strong strength in artificial intelligence research. Through its AI subsidiary DeepMind, Google has made many achievements in the fields of AlphaGo and AlphaZero. Facebook, on the other hand, has shown great strength in the fields of face recognition and speech recognition. By acquiring companies such as Face.com and Wit.ai, Facebook has made many attempts in the field of AI.

In addition, Andrew Ng is considered as one of the important figures in the field of artificial intelligence. He was the leader of Google’s artificial intelligence team and played an important role in some AI projects of Google. Later, he joined Baidu and founded Baidu’s Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, transforming Baidu from a traditional search engine company into an AI company.

Fourth, analysis of industry hotspots

The hot issues in the AI industry mainly involve technology, safety and ethics. In terms of technology, the development of artificial intelligence still faces some challenges, such as how to improve the efficiency of machine learning and how to deal with the problem of data scale. In terms of security, the black box problem of AI has always been concerned, that is, the decision-making process of AI model is opaque and difficult to explain. Ethical issues are also an important topic in the AI industry, such as how to ensure that the development of artificial intelligence is in line with the interests of mankind, how to avoid the negative impact of AI on society, and so on.

In addition, autonomous driving is also an important hot spot in the AI industry. Autopilot technology has a wide application prospect in automobile, logistics and other fields. However, the realization of autonomous driving technology still faces many technical challenges, such as how to deal with complex traffic environment and how to ensure the safety of vehicles.

In short, with the continuous development of AI technology, the prospect of artificial intelligence industry is very broad. At the same time, the development of AI technology also needs the joint efforts of society to ensure that the application of AI is in line with the interests of mankind and avoid negative impacts on society.

The city’s fresh technology shares WiFi, which is a new choice for intelligent and convenient service in stores.

Founded in 2018, Wuhan Xianshi Technology Co., Ltd. is a technology-driven company. Its business segments include shared charging treasure, shared charging pile, unmanned container, life service, aggregate payment business, cloud computing and other industrial fields. With independent development capability, strong technical team, customer service team and rich experience in operation and promotion management, we are committed to the research and development of Internet technology and artificial intelligence equipment.

The city’s fresh technology sharing WiFi pays more attention to landing operation, which means that your customers are the end customers. All you have to do is push the ground, invite the merchants to settle in, and open the Wi-Fi code for the merchants (replace the Wi-Fi in the store). Paste the Wi-Fi code corresponding to the merchant according to the number of tables in the merchant’s store.

The business entry system is also divided into shares, which is quite attractive to developers or platform operators. Entering this area is completed by developers, because developers promote business entry with a share of profits.

For the platform operator, as long as the customers in the store scan the code to link WiFi successfully, you will get a profit, and this part of the profit is calculated automatically. Your profit is settled by Tencent’s traffic, and the following will form the effect of automatic operation. When others connect WiFi, you will get a profit, and the system operator will just enjoy the profit.

King of Find more than VLOOKUP, do you know for CP functions?

During our daily tabulation, it is often used.Find the work of reference related data.

In fact, this is also one of most small partners in touch.

For example, according to the corresponding results of the employee name, according to the number of item numbers in one item, the corresponding sales, etc.

Today, I will introduce you to a very powerful function combination to achieve this feature.

They are INDEX + MATCH combination.

The specific application scenario is as follows:

01 正 正 查

The correct point here is:Find reference target values ??from left to right.

That is, the lookup value is on the left and the return value is on the right.

As shown below, it is the performance watch of the company employee in the first quarter. We now want to find the corresponding performance according to the name.

Write the following formula in [F2] cell:

=INDEX (C2: C7, Match (E2, B2: B7, 0)))

Formula analysis:

First look up Liu Yan in the [B2: B7] in the [B2: B7], return to the number 2;

This number 2 is then used as the second parameter of the index function, meaning returning to the value of the first parameter in the cell area in the cell area in the cell region.

There are three parameters: Match functions:

Match (lookup value, find area, lookup type)

The MATCH function is specifically used to find a value, where you are in a region or group, and return a number.

This number that is usually returned as a parameter of other functions.

Here, the returned numbers are used as the parameter of INDEX.

If the lookup type of the third parameter is 0, it means an exact lookup.

INDEX usually has three parameters:

Index (Returned area, line number, list number)

Since the first parameter is a single line or a single column, the third parameter can be omitted.

If you don’t illegally, the formula can be written as this:

=INDEX (C2: C7, Match (E2, B2: B7, 0), 1)

02 reverse lookup

The reverse refer to it here is:Find reference target values ??from right to left.

That is, the lookup value is on the right, the return value is on the left.

Also as examples above, for example, we want to find Liu Yan’s employee number.

The formula is as follows:

=INDEX (A2: A7, MATCH (E2, B2: B7, 0)))

Formula analysis:

The formula of this formula is similar to the formula of the forward look, but the first parameter of the index function will change the returned area into the [A2: A7] area.

It can be seen that whether it is looking for a look, it is the same.

Just change the area of ??the first parameter of the index function into the area that needs to return.

03 two-way lookup

The two-way refers herein is:Find the reference target value from the horizontal and vertical two directions.

As shown below: It is a quarter employee payment message, and now I need to find how much Liu Yan’s salary in March is.

The formula is as follows:

=INDEX (B3: D8, Match (G3, A3: A8, 0), Match (H2, B2: D2, 0))

Formula analysis:

First look up Liu Yan in [A3: A8] in the vertical position in [A3: A8], return to the number 2;

Then use the second Match function to find the horizontal position in [B2: D2] in this area, return to the number 3;

Finally, the two numbers are respectively used as the second and third parameters of the INDEX function, meaning returning to the INDEX first parameter [B3: D8] zone "Chapter 3 of the third row in the area of ??this intersection cell, namely: 8606.

Because the two-way lookups here need to involve the position in both directions, we are hereUse two MATCH functions to locate the lines and columns.

04 more conditions

Multi-conditional lookup refers to: Find back to the corresponding target value based on 2 or more conditions, which is often used in our daily work.

As shown below: It is a sales list of all item numbers in all regions. We want to find how much the number of item numbers BH003 in Nanjing is.

Condition 1: Nanjing;

Conditions 2: The item number is BH003.

Write the following formula in the [G2] cell:

=INDEX (C2: C7, Match (E2 & F2, A2: A7 & B2: B7, 0))

Formula analysis:

The basic frame of the formula is the same as above, just first connect two conditions into a new condition form with a "&" text connection;

Then follow the ideas looking forward to the looks to the lookup and return to the sales volume in the [C2: C7] area.

Match function Find the location of "Nanjing BH003" in the newly generated array:

Match ("Nanjing BH003", 0)

Returns the number 3, then this number 3, as the second parameter of the index function, means returning the INDEX first parameter [C2: C7] The value in the cell in the cell area, that is, 72.

?

Because this is an array formula, the formula needs to be ended in the [Ctrl + Shift + Enter] three key. The braces outside the formula will be automatically generated. For small friends who use Office 365, you can end up with a three-key.

Of course, the multi-conditional lookups here can also be applied at both horizontal and vertical two directions.

In addition, no matter how many conditions, just connect multiple conditions to a new condition with a "&" text connector first, then apply the above routine.

05 interval lookup

The interval lookup refers to:If the lookup value is in a certain range, the corresponding target value is returned.

As shown below, the number of bonuses from the employee is required according to the performance interval.

Write the following formula in the [G2] cell:

=INDEX (J2: J5, Match (F2, {0; 41; 81; 121}, 1)))

Formula analysis:

This formula is especially the application of the second and third parameters of the MATCH function.

If the third parameter is 1 or omitted, the MATCH function will look for the maximum of less than or equal to the first parameter, andThe value in the second parameter must be sorted in ascending order.

The maximum value of less than 65 is 41, 41 in this constant array ({0; 41; 81; 121}) is 2, that is, the number 2 is returned to the number 2, and then the index second parameter is finally returned 2000.

Of course, here we can also write this constant number in an auxiliary column, which may be better understood.

As shown below:

06 blurry look

The fuzzy look is to realize the target value by combining with the wildcard ("?" Question mark and "*" asterisk).

As shown below: We want to find a surname Xu to open his head, and how much is the employee number of three characters.

The formula is as follows:

=Index (A2: A7, Match (E2 & "", B2: B7, 0))

Formula analysis:

Here is the key to the Match function supports the usage of wildcard.

Everyone must pay attention to:

"?" Question mark wildcard, represent any single character.

"*" Asterisk wildcard, represents any number of characters.

Here we used two "??" question marks, represent any two characters.

07 summary

Today, we have learned two powerful function combinations (INDEX + MATCH)Six kinds of findings commonly used in work:

? Positive lookup;

? Anti-(reverse) lookup;

? Two-way lookup;

Multi-conditional lookup;

Area lookup;

? Fuzzy lookup.

What is the most look for you usually use? What do you have any questions about VLOOKUP?
