Take responsibility with youth: they are not the delicate "post-90s" and "post-00s"

  "Post-90s" and "Post-00s" may still be children in the eyes of parents, but in this epidemic prevention and control battle, their figures are particularly eye-catching, and they tell us with practical actions that they have reached the age of social responsibility.

  Youth is a story of breaking cocoons into butterflies and tempering into steel. In these stories, the "post-90s" and "post-00s" volunteers who are young have fulfilled their mission and responsibility.

  Liu Qiongxiang: Building a warm line of defense for the elderly

  Don’t dare to go out to buy food, can’t go out to see a doctor, no one to talk about psychological anxiety… Since the outbreak of the epidemic, many of the elderly have encountered difficulties in their daily lives. In order to help this special group safely and peacefully through the epidemic prevention and control period, a short-haired and thin post-90s "female man" stepped forward to provide thoughtful services for the elderly.

  Her name is Liu Qiongxiang, and the Huyuantong Social Work Service Center where she is located serves more than 13,500 elderly people over the age of 75 all year round. Since receiving the epidemic prevention and control notice on New Year’s Eve, Liu Qiongxiang has given up the time to reunite with her family and devoted herself to the volunteer service work of epidemic prevention and control for the elderly.

  "Uncle Zhang, don’t worry, I’ll find a way to help you solve it." On the evening of February 2, Liu Qiongxiang received a call from Uncle Zhang for help and softly calmed the old man’s emotions. On the phone, 90-year-old Uncle Zhang said that he may have caught a cold and had a slight cough, and his words revealed nervousness and anxiety. After learning about the situation, Liu Qiongxiang carefully inquired about the old man’s contact history and medical history, and then immediately contacted the doctor to diagnose the old man remotely. After confirming that the old man had a common cold, Liu Qiongxiang breathed a sigh of relief. Subsequently, Liu Qiongxiang bought back the corresponding medicine according to the doctor’s order and delivered it to Uncle Zhang’s house overnight. Arriving at the elderly’s home, Liu Qiongxiang carefully measured the elderly’s body temperature, wrote down the time, frequency and amount of medication on the paper, and repeatedly told the elderly to keep warm and take medicine on time.

  There are countless similar things. But she firmly believes that "with the joint efforts of everyone, the day to defeat the epidemic will come soon!"

  Wang Xinyu: MD graduate students report to their hometown health bureau

  Wang Xinyu, a doctoral student majoring in immunology at Zhongshan Medical College, returned to her hometown of Zigui from Guangzhou. When she learned that the frontline medical staff was in a hurry, she called the county headquarters on the first day of the first lunar month and volunteered to participate in the frontline "epidemic" work.

  Wang Xinyu (first from the right) with her mentor and classmates.

  Wang Xinyu, who was born in 1996, received the first task and her most memorable task – assisting the epidemic prevention and control headquarters in preparing the epidemic observation point of the University of Geology. From cleaning and disinfecting the room to placing the hospital bed, and traveling to and from the material reserve warehouse to receive and purchase medical and living materials, in less than a day and a half, Wang Xinyu turned an extremely simple student dormitory into an observation point with basic medical conditions for receiving visitors, and welcomed the first batch of COVID-19 pandemic visitors on the sixth day of the first lunar month.

  In addition to the daily replenishment of medical and daily necessities at the observation point, Wang Xinyu is also responsible for counting the personal information of the close contacts of the visitors. Many times in order to update the dynamic information of the visitors and keep abreast of the latest situation of the epidemic, she needs to be busy late at night. Up to now, she has been holding on for more than a month.

  Wang Xinyu, who was fighting on the front line, did not let go of her professional knowledge. Every night, she used her spare time to write a review article on COVID-19 under the guidance of her mentor, and published it online in the "Journal of Tropical Medicine" of Sun Yat-sen University, hoping to provide a weapon for victory in the fight against COVID-19.

  "Post-90s" girl Wang Mei: I just want to do something meaningful

  The sun is high, the outdoor temperature has risen to more than 20 degrees Celsius, and 27-year-old Wang Mei has to wear stuffy protective clothing, gloves, and a thermometer to measure the body temperature of the car owner, instruct the car owner to scan the code registration information, and volunteer to serve on the front line of epidemic prevention at the exit of the expressway. Since February 8, she has not only been running on the front line of epidemic prevention by herself, but also organized and mobilized more than 30 volunteers from the unit to participate. "We must not only ensure that every link is properly handled for the safety of the citizens, but also ensure the safety of every volunteer in the process of participating in the activity. The current situation makes me feel that my responsibility is greater than ever!" Her thin shoulders show the responsibility of the post-90s generation.

  Wang Mei (middle) and other volunteers volunteer at the highway exit.

  "Hello, please check your temperature!" "Hello, please scan the code to register the information." At the exit of Huida Expressway, Wang Mei, wearing a red vest, protective clothing, and protective mask, repeated these words over and over again. Due to talking for a long time and not being able to drink water, her voice was hoarse.

  After the COVID-19 epidemic broke out, she launched a publicity recruitment in her unit, and within half a day, more than 20 volunteers joined together to form a "Youth War Epidemic Commando". "Staying at home, just reading a book and swiping my phone, I want to do something meaningful at this time, and I am still an active member of the party, so I should do something at this time."

  Luo Haoran: Stick to Guangdong "Peking University Gate"

  "The more difficult the more forward", in the face of epidemic detection pressure, Shaoguan epidemic youth volunteer commando not forget their original intention, stick to their posts, give up the time to reunite with their families, build a strong fortress in the front line of the fight against the epidemic, and strictly guard the Guangdong health "Peking University Gate". This young volunteer commando team is mainly composed of some young party members, Communist Youth League members, Communist Youth League cadres, Shaoguan college students and other groups, most of them are "00".

  Luo Haoran, a major in atmospheric science at Guangdong Ocean University, signed up to participate in the volunteer service activity organized by the Shaoguan Municipal Committee of the Communist Youth League to guard the gate of Peking University in Guangdong. The main task is to assist the staff of the Lechang North Guangdong Inspection Station to complete the temperature measurement of vehicle personnel, register into Guangdong, and distribute flyers. At the peak period of the Lechang Pingshi Expressway Lechang North Guangdong Inspection Station at the junction of Guangdong and Hunan, tens of thousands of vehicles pass through every day, which is an important pass for Guangdong Province to strictly prevent the import of the epidemic.

  Luo Haoran stood for more than three hours at a time, repeating the same work constantly, not only being polite, careful, meticulous, but also doing a good job. He said: "Although it was very hard to stand for a few hours, it was very important for everyone to work together and join hands."

  Luo Haoran (middle) is inspecting passing vehicles.

  Liao Zeshun: Although there is a torch, I can also be a beam of light

  In this severe epidemic battle, Liao Zeshun, the secretary of the Youth League branch of Jinan University’s 2019 public utilities management (emergency management direction) and an activist who joined the party, saw that party members and comrades from all walks of life actively participated in epidemic prevention and control work. He took the initiative to sign up for the community epidemic prevention volunteer team to participate in epidemic prevention and control duty and publicity work.

  "The light and heat of youth is to put into the grass-roots line of epidemic prevention that serves the community and the masses, and protect the home together. There are our youthful figures in the front line of group prevention botnet and joint prevention and control." Liao Zeshun practices his oath of youth with practical actions. "Hello! Are you a resident of this community?" "Hello! I will measure your temperature now, please cooperate!" His job is to guard the entrance of the community, which is also to protect the health and safety of the residents of the community. "Although there is a torch, I can also be a beam of light".

  "Every generation has a long march for every generation." In fact, what defines each of us is never the post-zero generation, but what we can bring to the country and the people after hard work and struggle.

  The reason why youth is precious is that at this stage of life, we are more courageous, decisive, and pure, and able to listen to the voice of our hearts to do what we really want to do, what we should do, and what is meaningful to the country and society.

  The late winter and early spring of 2020 undoubtedly gave the post-90s and post-00s a special meaning. In this war epidemic, they who fought on the front line found the responsibility of youth; they who "stayed at home" increased their reverence and thinking about life.

  In this great era, please work hard to study hard and grow your talents, use scientific knowledge to protect those you want to protect, and use your life to write the stories you want to write; please strengthen your ideals and beliefs, do not fall into patriotism, and write the song of your youth where the motherland needs it most.

Shangyangshi Street Community, Shangcheng District, Hangzhou takes the openness of government affairs as the traction, promotes the interaction between the government and the people to develop in dept

Shangyangshi Street Community, Shangcheng District, Hangzhou is the birthplace of the first residents’ committee in New China and the birthplace of the party’s leadership in urban grassroots governance. In recent years, Shangyangshi Street Community has taken "residents’ needs" as the guide, "service integration" as the purpose, and "integration of matters" as the breakthrough point. By creating an institutionalized, standardized and standardized open position for government affairs, it has promoted benign interaction between the government and society, and actively guided residents to participate in co-construction, co-governance and sharing in an orderly manner.

First, take the "residents’ needs" as the lead, and realize the "extension of the tentacles" of information disclosure.

One is "a special area", with specifications set up on demand.The community has set up a special government affairs open area in the community service center, which is composed of five functional areas: government information inquiry, government information disclosure application, government service inquiry and handling, government affairs publicity and display, and government-citizen interaction and response. 24-hour self-service machines, public service inquiry machines, and government affairs open display screens are set up to release dynamic data in a timely manner, and the tentacles of information disclosure, government services, and government-citizen interaction are extended to grassroots communities.

The second is "a list", and the optimized form can be understood.According to the actual situation of the community, the needs of different types of residents for government information are subdivided, and the priority of government affairs disclosure content is defined according to the needs of residents, involving "three services" disclosure, social assistance, retirees, unemployed people, civil affairs benefits, garbage classification, etc., using text, pictures, audio, video, document attachments and other forms to provide government affairs data related to the vital interests of community residents, forming a public list, and promoting information disclosure with high quality.



The third is "a set of mechanisms" to enhance efficiency and warm people’s hearts.Establish and improve the government affairs openness and government service evaluation system, put out government affairs openness social evaluation questionnaires and suggestion boxes, introduce return visit mechanism and self-examination mechanism, and accept supervision and evaluation. At the same time, social workers visit residents daily to solicit opinions and suggestions to improve community government affairs openness and government services, and respond to social concerns with openness and transparency in the process of service and the results of handling matters, protect the masses’ right to know, and give play to the effectiveness of government affairs openness.



Second, with the purpose of "service integration", we will achieve "one-door management" for serving the people.

The first is to expand the communication platform and promote negotiation.On the one hand, build an information grid, create a "micro" community at your fingertips, take the street "people call me as" WeChat Mini Program as the entrance, and through the "point-to-point" interactive service model, realize 100% response, one-stop management demand response service; through the "red e-home" WeChat group launched by the industry committee and the WeChat group of residents in 13 areas to report the progress of the event in real time, and realize the closed loop of information processing. On the other hand, actively build a communication and discussion platform, and broaden the path for diverse groups to exchange opinions and form consensus through offline platforms such as public opinion roundtables and democratic talks, to ensure that community public affairs are discussed with the masses, invited to participate, and let the masses judge. In 2021, a total of 67 consultation meetings have been organized, with 46 topics discussed.



The second is to focus on personal matters and promote integrated services.Guided by the needs of the masses, scientifically formulate an empowered list of approval service items, and in accordance with the principle of "advance must advance" and "advance must advance if you can", and take the "run at most once" reform as an opportunity to promote the implementation of public service projects such as home-based elderly care, assistance, employment and entrepreneurship, and social security in the community. Simplify the process of residents’ affairs. 60 main personal affairs of residents, such as unemployment registration and low-income insurance applications, can be handled online, simplified, and nearby. Residents can accept them through the community government affairs open area or self-service all-in-one machines 24 hours a day. In addition, weaving a dense social organization service network, cultivating more than 30 social organizations such as the Folk Art Center for the Disabled and the Hemei Community Service Center, providing more than 150 various services such as elderly assistance and employment for the disabled, and serving more than 20,000 residents every year.

The third is to guide residents to participate and broaden governance channels.Transform the "good voice" of the people into a "new engine" of governance. Through residents’ attention and use of government information, improve residents’ awareness of participating in governance, guide residents to participate in community governance, and broaden community governance channels. For example, during the micro-update and transformation process, the process will be publicly announced in real time. After receiving the needs of elderly residents to install elevators, a meeting will be held to promote the elevator. Expert technicians working on the installation of elevators at two levels in the urban area will be invited to solve the problem on the spot. Deepen and promote the senior-friendly transformation of community facilities. Party members will take the lead and residents will participate to jointly discuss and negotiate various issues of service facilities.



Third, take the "integration of matters" as the breakthrough point to realize the improvement of the quality and efficiency of government services.

The first is to widely solicit public opinion and expand and refine services.Take the initiative to expand capacity to do "addition", relying on the three-level governance system of "street-community-grid" to connect with multiple parties, enter households at the wrong time, deeply grasp the service needs of residents, and assist in the government services such as social security, community correction, social security, social assistance, urban management, and environmental sanitation that are closely related to residents’ lives. Since the beginning of this year, the community staff has dispatched 150 people to distribute more than 3,400 consultation forms for the improvement and renovation of old residential areas to residents. After collection, 31 construction plans have been adjusted according to residents’ wishes, and 16 problems such as sewage blockage and side wall leakage have been solved.

The second is to improve the environment and handle things efficiently.The community actively promotes the construction of positions and upgrades to build a "Baitonggang" service desk. With the goal of "only entering one door and only finding one person" for the masses, we continue to promote the centralized handling of government services. Residents only need to submit a complete set of application materials. Community staff go through various transfer procedures in the shortest possible time, and realize "front desk acceptance and background circulation" to continuously improve the efficiency of community government services. According to the construction requirements of government service items "should be advanced as much as possible" and public service items "can be advanced as much as possible", the list of convenience services for Baitonggang in this community has reached 52. All 13 community full-time staff have completed the training of Baitonggang and can work independently, realizing the transformation of community services from "special post" to "all-round post".

The third is multi-party linkage, and residents build a system.While promoting the standardization and legalization of government services, broaden the public’s participation in public affairs, form an effective co-governance system, and improve the quality of government services. Continue to improve brands such as "Neighborhood Duty Room" and "Fang Governance". Through residents’ self-recommendation and joint recommendation, more than 200 in-service party members, business owners, and social organization professionals in the building will be included in the "Fang" representatives, and N service teams will be formed to analyze and judge the problems that residents have strongly reflected, and form "Community People’s Livestock Micro-projects", which will be publicly claimed in the community government service area to help the community solve a large number of "emergency special" problems and stimulate the endogenous motivation of neighborhood consultation and governance. Since the beginning of this year, the community neighborhood duty room has dealt with a total of 61 problems, and put forward 21 suggestions through the "square governance" model. Among them, the renovation of the small square in Jinshiyuan, the optimization of drying racks, and the dredging of rain and sewage pipes in Jinshiyuan have been promoted.

Ren Xianqi’s new film transforms into Eastern Einstein, with a stunning explosive head


Li Lizhi claims that his style was entirely inspired by Einstein


Ren Xianqi looks amazing

  Nearly three weeks into filming for the action comedy "Tang Bohu Dian Qiuxiang 2," directed by Li Lizhi, the filmmaker, 21st Century Wake Pictures, revealed for the first time that Ren Xianqi played the talented "Xu Zhenqing" (Xu Zhenqing, also known as Xu Changgu, also known as Xu Changgu): an exploding fine curly hair, a beard, and a funny expression when holding a bamboo and wood "weapon" in hand, which portrays the role of an ancient scientist vividly. As for the period film, no similar look has ever appeared in the film, the director Li Lizhi said that it was entirely inspired by Einstein.

The first "Einstein" look

  With an explosive instant noodle head shape, a thick beard, and an exaggerated and funny expression, Ren Xianqi played the talented "Xu Zhenqing" in an extremely peculiar shape, which caused everyone on the crew to laugh as soon as he appeared. This was dubbed "Oriental Einstein" by director Li Lichu, all thanks to the comedy elements of the film "Tang Bohu Dianqiuxiang 2". "Einstein’s’explosive ‘hairstyle once left a quite deep impression on me. Xu Zhenqing’s hairstyle was inspired by Einstein. His character in the film is a scientist, who is very similar to the great scientist Einstein in terms of endless creativity. Therefore, our stylist designed a modern Einstein-style hairstyle for him, and I myself called him’Oriental Einstein’. "

Xu Zhenqing turned out to be a scientist

  This time, Ren Xianqi plays Xu Zhenqing (Xu Zhenqing, the word Changgu, also known as Xu Changgu), one of the four talents. Compared with the average Xu Changgu in the 93 version of "Tang Bohu Dianqiuxiang", his "ancient scientist" occupation has completely subverted this talent role: not only is his personality quirky, but all kinds of bizarre inventions are even more stunned. According to director Li Lizhi, Xu Zhenqing played by Ren Xianqi has many new inventions in the film. In the styling photo, he is holding a bamboo and wood cross-shaped "tool", which is one of the director’s so-called "secret weapons". "It is the gadget in his hand that plays a big role in the movie. All these props will be released in the future." Li Lizhi said.

Ren Xianqi’s afro is miserable

  Popular idol Ren Xianqi has starred in many costume dramas, all of which are handsome in the image of a hero. This time in "Tang Bohu Dianqiuxiang 2", the talent’s appearance was completely subverted: the image of a funny scientist with an explosive head and a beard is full of joy. And Ren Xianqi himself also joked about himself. "In fact, the beard is the most troublesome for me. Zhou Libo can play in 15 minutes. I have to do it at least two hours earlier than others. Sometimes when I wake up and find that I have become a large chocolate marshmallow, I can’t help but laugh."

  According to the studio staff, every time Ren Xianqi appeared, whether he was styling or not, he would be "treated" with laughter from all over the room. However, the price paid to maintain this breakthrough styling was indeed miserable. "In order to highlight the texture of the film, the wig and beard must be soaked in potions, and then touching the skin will inevitably hurt, but Xiao Qi will not mind [these] at all." The styling director also praised Ren Xianqi’s dedication.
 

Owner’s real evaluation: Why give up BMW and choose Mercedes-Benz E300?

At that time, I was entangled in two cars, one was the 530, and the other was it.

BMW’s appearance is cool, and when the power can be low, there will be a slight sense of frustration, and the interior feels a bit old-fashioned.

Although the appearance is not more sporty, the tenth generation has a little sporty atmosphere. More of it is the stability of commercial vehicles. Look at the interior decoration, the three-pronged starlight and double screen, as well as the atmosphere lights, which are full.

The power is 258p horsepower, so don’t worry about the power at all. Then go to the 4s shop to see the car. It’s just that the Spring Festival is coming soon, and everything is just right. At that time, except for the blind spot assistance, the car had everything else, such as seat memory, steering wheel memory, rearview mirror memory, electric leg rest, a kick in the trunk, and comfortable entry. I didn’t ask too much about the sound quality, and it happened that there were fashionable signs in the store to show the car black and brown, and then I decided.

C-class car space naturally has nothing to say, more than 5 meters of body, 3 meters of wheelbase. It’s spacious for four people to sit, and it’s a little uncomfortable when the fifth person sits. There’s a lot of room.

Cross your legs in the back row and relax.

Naked car 479900 was given a discount of 32000 at that time, and was given two maintenance and a small gift. The purchase tax insurance was fixed, and there was no compulsory decoration until 10: 50.

In comfort mode, there is a little meat at first. It’s not as good as the previous five-series, and then it’s a sense of frustration when it’s in the low gear, and it’s much smoother when it’s in the fourth gear The fuel consumption is 10L/100Km.

Because the high-powered car I bought is also very cool to drive, and now it has been driving for more than 4 thousand kilometers. Now I feel that as long as you dare to step on the sports mode, it is also a suit thug.

In fact, it is no more difficult than BMW.

Now the car price has dropped, but many comfortable configurations are gone. Then it didn’t take long, but it was changed and the configuration was lowered. Although the price came down, I still felt that the configuration was full of fragrance. Although some of them are not needed, you can’t live without them.

As the saying goes: buy early and enjoy early, buy late with a discount, and give it away for free if it goes bankrupt, hahaha.

Finally, I wish all my friends, like to mention cars, and I hope that the Trigeminal Star will light up your career and future, and I hope my evaluation will be helpful to you.

Not up to expectations! NIO’s 2023 loss expands to 20.70 billion yuan

"Our comprehensive performance did not meet expectations." At the beginning of 2024, Li Bin, founder, chairperson and CEO of NIO, bluntly stated in the internal letter at the beginning of the year. On the evening of March 5, NIO released the fourth quarter and full year financial results of 2023. In 2023, NIO achieved revenue of 55.618 billion yuan, gross profit margin fell by 4.9 percentage points year-on-year, and net loss further expanded by 43.5% to 20.72 billion yuan.

In 2023, NIO delivered 160,000 vehicles, ranking second among new forces, but compared with the results of "sales crown" Li Auto 376,000 vehicles, there is a gap of 216,000 vehicles, and there is a great fault. At the moment of intense price war, can the listing of the new brand "Alps" series this year reverse the current delivery status of NIO?

Losses further widened

The financial report shows that in the fourth quarter of 2023, NIO achieved revenue of 17.103 billion yuan, an increase of 6.5% year-on-year, down 10.3% from the third quarter of 2023; the net loss was 5.368 billion yuan, and the year-on-year loss narrowed, expanding by 17.8%. At the same time, the gross profit margin in the fourth quarter of 2023 was 7.5%, an increase of 3.6 percentage points year-on-year, and a decrease of 0.5 percentage points month-on-month. During the same period, the gross profit margin of automobiles was 11.9%, both year-on-year and month-on-month.

In 2023, NIO achieved revenue of 55.618 billion yuan, an increase of 12.9% year-on-year; net loss of 20.72 billion yuan, an increase of 43.5% year-on-year, and a loss of 14.437 billion yuan in the same period of 2022.The cumulative loss in the first three quarters of 2023 alone has reached 15.352 billion yuan, exceeding 2022.

In 2023, NIO’s overall gross margin and automotive gross margin both declined, with a gross margin of 5.5%, down 4.9 percentage points year-on-year; automotive gross margin was 9.5%, down 4.2 percentage points year-on-year.

It is worth noting that since 2021, NIO’s gross margin and vehicle gross margin have gradually declined, with gross margins from 2021 to 2023 being 18.9%, 10.4%, and 5.5% respectively. However, NIO’s vehicle gross margin has increased quarter by quarter in the four quarters of 2023, from 5.1% in Quarter 1 to 11.9% in the fourth quarter.

According to industry analysts,The main reason for NIO’s further widening losses in 2023 is its continued spending on research and development and infrastructure.In 2023, NIO’s R & D expenses will be 13.43 billion yuan, an increase of 23.9% year-on-year.

In terms of supplementary energy infrastructure buildings, in 2023, NIO will build 1,035 new substation stations around the world, with a total of 2,350 completed. Continued R & D investment and the expansion of substation infrastructure and user centers have increased NIO’s financial pressure.By the end of 2023, NIO’s cash reserves amount to 57.30 billion yuan

For the mass market

The new brand "Alps" will be launched in the second half of the year

After delivering 245,000 vehicles in 2023,In 2024, NIO has set a delivery target of 230,000 vehicles for the whole year.NIO expects to deliver 31,000 – 33,000 vehicles in the first quarter of this year, a decrease of 0.1% from the same period in 2023 to an increase of 6.3%. From January to February this year, 10,055 vehicles and 8,132 vehicles were delivered respectively. On March 5, Li Bin said at the performance meeting that he is confident to return to the level of monthly delivery of 20,000 vehicles.

Reporters learned that NIO will launch a new brand "Alps" in the second half of this year, priced 200,000 yuan – 250,000 yuan, for the public brand, to fill the current brand price gap. At present, NIO has released 9 models with a price band of 300,000 yuan – 800,000 yuan. Among them, the NIO intelligent electric executive flagship ET9 with a pre-sale price of 800,000 yuan will be delivered in the first quarter of 2025.

Li Bin said that there will be more than 100,000 yuan of models on the market in the future. At the moment of intense price war, the listing of the "Alps" series can reverse the current delivery status of NIO, and it remains to be seen whether the top three in the new energy market of more than 200,000 yuan this year.

"We judge that in the new energy vehicle market of more than 200,000 yuan, by the end of this year, there will be a particularly clear top three, and they will even occupy 70% of the market share. Among the top three, we (Li Auto) and Q Jie will definitely be in it." Liu Jie, vice-president of business at Li Auto, said in an interview with reporters on March 1.

Multiple editions of "Lu Xiaofeng" have their own strengths and weaknesses, Lin: The highest value is not daring to be

  Sohu Entertainment News, the fantasy martial arts masterpiece "Lu Xiaofeng and Huamanlou" starring Lin Li, Zhang Xiaolong, Zhang Meng, Lu Xi, Cai Juntao, Liu Xuehua, Zheng Zeshi, etc., is being broadcast on Shenzhen Satellite TV. As the latest version of this ancient dragon classic, the play is inevitably compared with previous editions by audiences and netizens. As the core soul character in the play, Lu Xiaofeng has naturally become an indicator for comparison of various editions.

  Lin’s version of Lu Xiaofeng

  On January 10, 2015, "Lu Xiaofeng and Huamanlou", starring Lin Xiao and Zhang Xiaolong, was broadcast. Lin Xiao played Huamanlou, who was unanimously recognized by the audience in terms of temperament, style, and performance, and was considered by many audiences to be the most beautiful version of Lu Xiaofeng. Lin Xiao expressed his shame for such an evaluation. After many years of acting, he has changed from an idol actor to a star with excellent acting skills, but this time playing Lu Xiaofeng is still a big challenge for him. "Lu Xiaofeng is a very interesting character, and it is also the dream of many actors. I cherish this rare opportunity and hope to bring you a different Lu Xiaofeng."

  Liu Songren version of Lu Xiaofeng

  Hong Kong TVB national treasure actor Liu Songren is the earliest actor of Lu Xiaofeng. He played Lu Xiaofeng in three consecutive films in TVB’s 1976 "Legend of Lu Xiaofeng", 1977 "Before and After the Decisive Battle of Lu Xiaofeng" and 1978 "Lu Xiaofeng’s Battle of Wudang". At that time, Liu Songren could be said to be the most beautiful and handsome young student in TVB. His solid acting skills also made this image successful for the first time. Until today, in the hearts of many middle-aged and elderly Hong Kong people, Liu Songren is still the best "Lu Xiaofeng", but because it is too long ago, many young viewers have not had the opportunity to see this version.

  Wan Ziliang version of Lu Xiaofeng

  In 1986, Hong Kong TVB again filmed Lu Xiaofeng’s TV drama "Lu Xiaofeng’s Phoenix Dance in Nine Days". This time, Wan Ziliang, who was already famous at the time, starred in Lu Xiaofeng. This Lu Xiaofeng has also become the most classic version, causing a sensation in both the mainland and Hong Kong. Although Wan Ziliang’s role of Lu Xiaofeng is not handsome enough, the victory lies in the romantic charm that captures the essence of the original work. Wan Ziliang’s personal acting career was also successful because of this play. To this day, Lu Xiaofeng is still Wan Ziliang’s most representative character image.

  Lin Zhiying’s version of Lu Xiaofeng

  In 2001, the "Legend of Lu Xiaofeng" filmed in Taiwan was broadcast, and Lin Zhiying starred in Lu Xiaofeng. Li Mingshun, Tao Hong, Mo Shaocong and many other stars from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Singapore joined the drama, but they did not let it overshadow the previous work. Lin Zhiying’s version of Lu Xiaofeng is more than handsome, but his charm and acting skills are slightly insufficient. Especially Lin Zhiying, who is born with a baby face, is really difficult to be equated with Lu Xiaofeng, who is unruly and unruly, and the audience’s sense of substitution is really awkward.

Liu Yuxin fights the three suspense of "China Star Jump" again to attract attention

刘雨欣再战《中国星跳跃》


  Sina Entertainment News, recently, Liu Yuxin has received a lot of attention online. In her debut in Zhejiang Satellite TV’s "China Star Jump" competition, in addition to showing the most difficult 202A churning action among all female contestants, the behind-the-scenes of her hard training has also become the focus of discussion among netizens after the competition. With Liu Yuxin playing "China Star Jump" again this Saturday, the difficulty of her entry, the style of her swimsuit, and whether she can successfully advance will all become the focus of this issue of "Star Jump".


  Suspense 1:360-degree tumbling on the three-meter board, an Olympic must-choose action?


  Liu Yuxin made a stunning first jump in the last program, breaking the monotonous movements of the same stage contestants such as Yanzifei and Popsicle, which had a low difficulty coefficient. She became an unprecedented high-difficulty action in the field for a week. She had the courage to break through and challenge her own spirit, which moved many viewers. At one point, she set off a trend of "learning from Yuxin’s good example" on the Internet, and the title of "Inspirational Muse" spread like wildfire.


  Before the attention of the first jump is exhausted, Liu Yuxin will usher in the "re-jump", and many netizens are looking forward to its action and difficulty. It is reported that this Saturday night in the rematch, Liu Yuxin will continue to surpass herself and face more difficult moves, continuing the 360-degree flipping action of the three-meter springboard. The difference is that she upgraded the previous backward straight body flip to the forward curve flip, and continued to challenge her limits in space and flexibility. It is said that Liu Yuxin’s re-jump action is an entry-level action for the Olympic Games and the World Championships. Can Liu Yuxin complete this difficult action? What kind of wonderful comments will the judges make on the field? Liu Yuxin’s second jump has attracted much attention.


  Suspense 2: Gorgeous shirt eye-catching debut, sexy plus points?


  Liu Yuxin, once known as "Sexy Muse", participated in the diving show this time to stage a fashionable "swimsuit show", and the beautiful swimsuit set off Yuxin’s youth and health.


  Judging from Liu Yuxin’s "battle robe" before diving, there are both loli-shaped floral little jumpsuits and imperial sister fan golden bikinis, each with a different style, which is called "changeable girl" by many netizens.


  And what kind of "war robe" Liu Yuxin will wear this time, "a little more sexy, or more cute, more dress style, or more Chinese style?" Liu Yuxin looks forward to bringing a surprise to everyone.


  Suspense 3: Looking forward to PK with Olympic champion Xing Aowei


  According to relevant personnel, this issue of "Star Jump" will stage a master showdown, and the two sides are gymnastics Olympic champion Xing Aowei and "inspirational Muse" Liu Yuxin.


  As the Olympic champion of gymnastics, Xing Aowei’s cross-border diving is still difficult to hide the momentum of the championship. In addition to his amazing jump in the preliminary round, he let the audience see the high platform handstand for the first time. In the second jump, he created a dazzling "heaven-defying" action, 720 degrees of tossing and 180 degrees of turning, which triggered full applause.


  In this rematch, Liu Yuxin will challenge and Olympic champion Xing Aowei will have a face-to-face PK. "Inspirational Muse" challenges the Olympic champion, not only detonates the enthusiasm of the audience, but also is a major suspense and highlight of this "Star Jump".


 

Jackie Chan’s "Dragon Mystery" as "White-haired Demon Man" Schwarzenegger came for it

On August 12, the film "Mystery of the Dragon Card" held its premiere press conference in Beijing. Director Oleg Stepchenko and producer Alexei Petrushin, starring Jackie Chan, Yao Xingtong, Li Yu, Li Mengmeng, etc., appeared and shared the behind-the-scenes story of the film with the audience.

The film tells the story of an ancient oriental legend. When the Dragon King sleeps, his eyelashes grow to the ground and tea leaves can grow. He seals his mana in the dragon card and bestows this power on the white magic master and his daughter Cheng Lan who take care of his eyelashes. The evil black magician imprisons the white magic master and Cheng Lan in an exotic prison, and the dragon king also falls into a deep sleep, and the vast number of villagers who make a living from tea leaves live in dire straits.

At the scene, the producer Alexei Petrushin mentioned some of the film’s highlights. He said that the biggest highlights of the film are the two starring Jackie Chan and Schwarzenegger. Of course, there are three different cultures – Chinese, British and Russian – that are intertwined in one film. He believes that the special effects of the film can attract the audience. The film is a fantasy theme and also involves many historical events. He believes this is a film suitable for all ages.

Referring to the casting of Jackie Chan and Schwarzenegger as the stars, the producer said that he and the director came up with an interesting script that included a Chinese wise man who could be trusted with the dragon seal, and they believed that only Jackie Chan could fill the role. He has dreamed of meeting Jackie Chan since he was a child and wanted to hold his hand to thank him for his teachings, life experiences and life philosophy. This movie is the best way for him and the director to express their hearts to Jackie Chan. Schwarzenegger is everyone’s childhood idol and dream, and it is exciting to be able to hold his hand and feel the sportsmanship and never-say-die principles of his professors.

Director Oleg Stepchenko said that this is a true Sino-Russian co-production, with many dangerous scenes in the shooting, but Jackie Chan’s team behind the scenes escorted and provided the best guarantee for all the actors.

Jackie Chan plays a Chinese wise man in the film, a master of white magic. He jokingly calls himself "the white-haired man". This look requires a sticky beard and a hood, which is the most hated look for actors, but he has always wanted to try different roles. Referring to the cooperation with Schwarzenegger, Jackie Chan said that he and Schwarzenegger are old friends, but when the producers said that Schwarzenegger would be invited to work with him, Jackie Chan still did not believe it. But when Schwarzenegger heard that Jackie Chan starred, he happily agreed. Jackie Chan also decided to take the film because Schwarzenegger agreed to act. Jackie Chan said that it was fun to work with Schwarzenegger and thanked the producers.

It is reported that the film will be released nationwide on August 16.

Interview with director Yang Zi | Jackie Chan’s 60 years are all in "The Spirit of Dragon Horse"


1905 movie network feature "Dragon Tiger Martial Master, never say no!"On April 7, international superstar Jackie Chan celebrated his 69th birthday, and his new film "Dragon Horse Spirit" also chose to meet the audience on this special day.


The film tells the story of Jackie Chan playing Lao Luo, who was the strongest dragon and tiger martial artist in the past, but was injured due to a dangerous action shooting. From then on, the scenery is no longer there, and he can only live with his beloved horse, Red Rabbit.


Director Yang Zi said in an exclusive interview with 1905 Movie Network that the role of Lao Luo was "tailor-made" for Jackie Chan’s eldest brother, and also showed the spiritual outlook of the older generation of dragon and tiger martial artists, paying tribute to these action actors who really fight!


When the film was filmed, it coincided with the 60th anniversary of Jackie Chan’s film career. As a loyal Jackie Chan fan, Yang Zi couldn’t help but design countless "Easter Egg Terriers". Through clothing styling and action lines, he took everyone back to Jackie Chan’s 60-year classic roles and presented a heartfelt "memoir" for his idol.


How to impress Jackie Chan’s big brother to join us? How to invite Wu Jing to "act as he is"? How hard did Jackie Chan, who is nearly 70 years old, work hard on the set? 1905 Movie Network interviewed Yang Zi, director and screenwriter of "Dragon Horse Spirit", to reveal the secrets behind the scenes of the film.


"Tailored"


"When I was a judge at the Silk Road International Film Festival, I was fortunate enough to watch a film called’Dragon and Tiger Martial Artist ‘. I was so shocked that I came up with the idea of creating a movie with Dragon and Tiger Martial Artist as the protagonist." Director Yang Ziru explained the origin of the creation of’Dragon and Horse Spirit’.


Unexpectedly, this idea was successfully affirmed and supported by Jackie Chan. He also shared a lot of past memories with Yang Zi, which were all incorporated into the creation of the script as valuable materials."The protagonist, Lao Luo, is indeed a character tailor-made for the eldest brother, and it also represents the spiritual outlook of the entire dragon and tiger martial arts industry."


As a veteran fan, Yang Zi admitted that he could not hold back a lot of "private goods", "whether intentionally or not, when the person in front of the camera is Jackie Chan, I can’t help but want to hear him repeat those classic lines or funny memes of the year."


As a result, the attentive audience will find that Guo Qilin’s character is called "Naihua", which is derived from the lawyer Zhou Huajian played in "Glass Bottle". The classic dish "Fruit Cat Stewed Water Fish Whip" in "Police Story 3: Super Cop" has also made a comeback, which is sure to make fans smile.


Since the whole story took place in the film and television city, the appearance of various costume scenes would not be contrary to the feeling of harmony, which also made the director Yang Zi "pay tribute" more enjoyable.


The long shirts in "Drunk Fist 2", the short shirts in "Young Master Long", the ancient costumes in "Myth", the tribal style in "Who Am I", the skateboard boy in "Fast Food Truck", the classic hat-throwing action in "Miracle" and so on, all of which are reminiscences, making fans hooked.


The long shirt in "Drunk Fist 2"


The tribal style in "Who Am I?"


Ancient costume in "Myth"


Yang Zi recalled that every time Jackie Chan changed into the same costume and made a signature move, it would cause shouting one after another on the set, which also made him particularly happy.


"Big brother likes to satisfy the small requests of movie fans the most. When he sees all of us yelling and never seeing the world, he thinks it’s very cute. He thinks that since I’m wearing this, it can make you so happy, and I believe other movie fans will be very happy when they see it, so our Easter eggs will increase more and more."


"Legacy"


"Big brother, let’s film together! My play." In "Dragon Horse Spirit", Wu Jing’s appearance is surprising.His role is a popular action star who was once promoted by Lao Luo. Through the dialogue between the two about real combat or special effects, he also shows the mental collision of two generations of action filmmakers.


Yang Zi said bluntly that this role is Wu Jing’s "true character", "Brother Jing is the perfect choice, and this character is him."In the backstage of Jackie Chan Action Movie Week, Jackie Chan also personally sent an invitation to Wu Jing, who agreed without hesitation, "Brother Jing is very busy, but he specially arranged time for the same frame as the big brother to play this role."


After all, this is the first time Jackie Chan and Wu Jing have the same frame on the big screen, and the interpretation is closely related to the theme of Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts, and many of the lines make them feel the same.


Yang Zi recalled that during the filming of a rival scene, Jackie Chan and Wu Jing once had tears in their eyes. "Big brother has been a benchmark for several generations of action actors. Everyone has basically accepted the support or help of big brother. So when they see those lines, they can’t help but think back to the past. It’s really a very heartfelt and direct communication."


If Jackie Chan and Wu Jing are passed down from action filmmakers, then the relationship with his "son-in-law" Guo Qilin can be said to be a "sudden change in style".Yang Zi also praised Guo Qilin without hesitation as the "King of Explosive Obstruction" on the set, adding comedy elements to the film both inside and outside the play.


"His control of comedy and his accurate output of humor have become instinctive. At the same time, as long as he is around, the scene will become extremely happy, and he will always say something at any performance, whether it is complaining, teasing or self-deprecating, which will make everyone laugh."


In the film, a scene where Jackie Chan teaches Guo Qilin to straddle can be called a "scene of calamity". Guo Qilin also laughed: I hope the door of the action movie that has just opened will be "closed" quickly.


In this regard, director Yang Zi said that Guo Qilin is very hard-working and loves to try new things. "Maybe one day he suddenly decides to challenge again, and this door will be kicked open by himself!"



"60 Years of Shadow"


Jumping down from the Ferris wheel and the roof, using various props to move around and reproduce the style of "Furniture God of War", in "Spirit of Dragon Horse", we can still see the uncompromising action scenes of Jackie Chan.


What impressed Yang Zi the most was the shooting of the Ferris wheel scene. Facing the Ferris wheel about 10 stories high, Jackie Chan, who is nearly 70 years old, insisted on shooting in person, just to present the best effect.


When he landed firmly, all the staff couldn’t help but clap their hands, but Jackie Chan said calmly: "What’s so small to clap, it was more dangerous to do it before."


Yang Zi confessed that considering Jackie Chan’s age and injuries, he had also made plans to reduce the complexity of his movements, but they were all rejected by the eldest brother himself, "Simple, it’s not Jackie Chan."


For the sake of "Dragon Horse Spirit", Jackie Chan postponed the day of knee surgery and received nine injections to close the group, but because he did too many "running, jumping, falling" and other actions in a short time, the pain relief effect of half a year was consumed in just 20 days.


Talking about this, Yang Zi was also very distressed, "Big brother always said to me: don’t let the fans down, to meet their inner expectations of the action scenes in Jackie Chan movies, especially such a film that shows the theme of Dragon Tiger Martial Artist, I want to show the state and feeling of this character."


When he heard "turn on", he was desperate and tried his best for every action. Lao Luo in the movie seemed to be Jackie Chan in the parallel world, fulfilling that promise with his whole life: "Dragon and tiger martial artist, never say no!"


Or as the line goes: They are a very simple group of people with only three words: boot, jump, hospital.


Yang Zi told us that it was of extraordinary significance to Jackie Chan that "The Spirit of Dragon Horse" could be filmed and released at an important time in Jackie Chan’s 60 years of film. This is a retrospective created by my brother and fans, a gift, and a precious "memoir".


"60 years of accumulation, 60 years of love, 60 years of perseverance. What is presented here is not just a filmmaker spirit, but more like a craftsman spirit that we now respect – ‘choose one thing and do it for a lifetime’. Big brother is the best representative of this spirit."
