Jin Yuzheng warned the United States about the action of the US reconnaissance plane: if it invades repeatedly, it will experience "dangerous flight."

  [Global Network Report] According to Korean Central News Agency, Jin Yuzheng, deputy director of the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea, made a speech on the 11th, warning the United States about the recent military reconnaissance activities of the US reconnaissance plane around the peninsula, which damaged North Korea’s sovereignty, saying that if the US military invaded repeatedly, it would experience "very dangerous flights". Jin Yuzheng warned South Korea’s so-called "normal flight activities between South Korea and the United States" not to be conceited.

  Regarding the provocative actions of the US military, Jin Yuzheng said that the South Korean military took the liberty to intervene, shamelessly insisting that it was "normal flight activities of South Korea and the United States", and once again denied the fact that the United States violated the sovereignty of the DPRK. The problem in the relevant airspace is between the DPRK and the United States. Korean military hooligans should not be conceited, but should shut up at once.

  Jin Yuzheng said that on July 10th, the strategic reconnaissance plane of the US Air Force invaded the economic waters of the DPRK in the East China Sea for eight times from 0515 to 1310, 435km east of Tongchuan, gangwon to 276km southeast of Weizhen, Gyeongsangbuk-do, and conducted aerial detective activities. "My authorization has foreshadowed the response of our army. If the U.S. military invades our area repeatedly without authorization, it will experience a very dangerous flight, "Jin Yuzheng said.

  The day before, Korean Central News Agency published a statement by a spokesman of the DPRK Defense Ministry, criticizing the United States for introducing strategic nuclear submarines with nuclear warheads into the periphery of the Korean Peninsula and keen on military reconnaissance activities that undermine the sovereignty of the DPRK, and warned the United States that "no one can guarantee that the incident in which the US Air Force reconnaissance plane was shot down over the East China Sea of Korea will not happen again". On the same day, Jin Yuzheng also made a speech on the incident, warning the United States and South Korea. According to Korean Central News Agency’s report on the 10th, Jin Yuzheng said that this morning, a spokesman of the DPRK Defense Ministry issued a solemn warning about the recent worrying aerial reconnaissance behavior of the US military that seriously violated the DPRK’s national sovereignty and security interests. Ironically, the South Korean military immediately denied the fact that the US military had seriously violated sovereignty. Jin Yuzheng said: We have authorized repeated warnings that the US military does not invade our economic waters but conducts reconnaissance activities in the waters outside. We will not respond directly to this, but if we violate our economic waters beyond the maritime military demarcation line again, we will take clear and resolute actions to respond. "If the United States still ignores our warning and doesn’t feel how dangerous it will face, it’s not our fault," Jin Yuzheng said. "What’s more, if it suffers a tragic disaster, it will obviously become a sin of its own making."

Huang Jian, "Ambassador of Olympic Art": Carrying forward the Olympic spirit with sculpture art

  The Olympic Games is not only a grand event of sports, but also a symbol of peace, friendship and progress. China sculptor Huang Jian has created more than 40 sculptures for the 6th Olympic Games in the past 20 years, contributing to the inheritance of the Olympic spirit. He was also called an Olympic art ambassador with an Olympic dream of peace by IOC President Bach, and was awarded the Outstanding Contribution Award for Inheriting the Olympic Spirit.

  In front of the gate of the Winter Olympics Organizing Committee in Shougang Park, Beijing, there stands a sculpture named "The Covenant of Winter Olympics". This sculpture takes figure skating as the theme and tells the story of a China teenager and an ancient Greek girl meeting in Beijing Winter Olympics through time and space.

  Huang Jian, Sculptor of Olympic Art Ambassador:The two of them danced harmoniously on the ice and snow and flew to a bright future together, which embodies the idea of the Winter Olympics, "pure ice and snow, passionate dating".

  Including the Covenant of Winter Olympics, Huang Jian created a total of 28 works for the Beijing Winter Olympics, including colorful gold music dynamic sculptures, Song of Winter Olympics, Dream of Winter Olympics and Dance of Winter Olympics, as well as the Covenant of Ten Thousand Years, Hundred Years of Ice Play and Ode to Olympic Health, which embody the long and splendid sports civilization, and the Olympic Dream and China Red, which show the hard work of China Olympic athletes. They are placed in Shougang Park, Yanqing, Dongao Village and other places, which has become a highlight of this Winter Olympics.

  Huang Jian, Sculptor of Olympic Art Ambassador:The work behind us is called Together for the Future, which is also the theme of our Winter Olympics.

  Huang Jian also created a number of national gifts for the Winter Olympics, among which "Winter Olympic Flame" and "A Dream of Concentric Circles" were presented to Greek President Saclaropoulos and International Olympic Committee President Bach respectively.

  Huang Jian, Sculptor of Olympic Art Ambassador:Holding the Olympic flame, the Olympic Goddess is like such a bright light that leads people out of the dark tunnel of COVID-19 epidemic, so she must be very high, see a kind of light, a kind of warmth, and a kind of peace and friendship.

  In July 2001, Beijing successfully applied for the Olympic Games. From that moment on, Huang Jian had the Olympic dream of using sculpture art to carry forward the Olympic spirit, tell the story of China, enhance the friendship among countries and promote world peace. From her first work for the Beijing Olympic Games in 2008, Ma Qiutu, the Imperial concubine of the Ming Dynasty, to the Sino-British Polo Friendship in the London Olympic Games in 2012, the China-Pakistan Football Friendship in the Rio Olympic Games in 2016, the Olympic Goddess in the Lausanne Winter Youth Olympic Games in 2020 and the Sino-Japanese Judo Friendship in the Tokyo Olympic Games in 2020, Huang Jian’s works will not be absent from every Olympic Games.

  Huang Jian, Sculptor of Olympic Art Ambassador:As an artist, I feel that in such a grand event that attracts worldwide attention as the Olympic Games, we are holding the flame at this time, and every move we make is attracting the world’s attention. At this time, it is very meaningful for us to convey our concept of peace through a work.

  In recognition of Huang Jian’s contribution to the spread of Olympic culture. The International Olympic Committee awarded her the title of the world’s first Olympic art ambassador, and Bach even praised the Olympic goddess created by Huang Jian.

  Huang Jian, Sculptor of Olympic Art Ambassador:The Olympic Goddess is a great symbol of the Olympic spirit and world peace. I hope that the Olympic Goddess will fly from Lausanne, the modern Olympic capital, to the host city of each Olympic Games, spread the flowers of Olympic peace all over the world, and let the voice of Olympic peace spread to Tianyu.

  Bach hopes that under the guidance of the Olympic goddess, sports and art will unite and work together to realize the Olympic dream of peace.

  Huang Jian, Sculptor of Olympic Art Ambassador:United as one. Because this is also the core value of the Olympic Games, that is, it starts with peace, prospers with peace, develops with peace, and unites everyone with peace. That is a charm of peace, and I think this charm is also eternal.

Attention! "ADHD" can’t be equated with mischief.

  When children suffer from a disease called "attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder" (hereinafter referred to as "ADHD"), many parents are still in the dark. On the surface, children are just active, unable to sit still, and even appear smarter than other children. Isn’t this the "nature" of children in the traditional concept?

  In medicine, behind hyperactivity is that attention can’t be concentrated normally. Hyperactivity may decrease with the increase of age and self-control, but it is difficult to alleviate the defect of attention, which may affect children’s life in study, work and life.

  The Second People’s Hospital of Guizhou Province (Guizhou Mental Health Center) opened a special outpatient clinic for children and adolescents with learning difficulties on March 6th this year. Over the past six months, it has received hundreds of cases of "ADHD" among adolescents, and carried out professional intervention treatment under the guidance of the expert team of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in the Sixth Hospital of Peking University.

  "ADHD" can’t be equated with mischief.

  Medical "attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder" is often just hyperactivity or mischief in the cognition of many parents. "There are many sick boys, and children are often smarter and have high IQ." Xiong Jie, deputy director of the Women and Children Psychiatry Department of the Second People’s Hospital of Guizhou Province, said, "Many parents didn’t notice ‘ Move around ’ The attention deficit problem behind it. "

  Many details in children’s life can be used to judge whether they have attention problems: whether children in kindergarten can concentrate on listening to a story told by their parents; When children draw, will they unconsciously turn their eyes from drawing paper to pen tip? Is it always a drag to finish the exercises … …

  Other children will provoke their classmates lightly, and may draw a picture on their classmates when sharpening pencils; Can’t stand the constraints of classroom discipline and get along well with teachers and classmates; Parents who often fight are invited … … Qian Ying, deputy director of Peking University Sixth Hospital and Peking University Clinical Psychology Center, explained that "hyperactivity" is a dimension of attention deficit, and there are many subtle manifestations in patients’ study and life.

  "There is something called dopamine in their brains that is not enough." Qian Ying made an analogy: "There seems to be a battle in the brain. When dopamine secretion is normal, the marshal in the brain can direct everything. When it is time to move, it should be quiet. If the dopamine secretion is less, the marshal may fall asleep and the soldiers will start to move uncontrollably. "

  An article published in the Chinese Journal of Epidemiology in 2018 showed that the total prevalence rate of attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder among children in China was 5.6%, and subgroup analysis showed that the prevalence rate of boys was 7.7% and that of girls was 3.4%. Qian Ying said that less than 1/3 of the patients were formally treated, and the proportion of patients receiving formal treatment after treatment was even lower.

  The reason why children fall behind in their grades may be the lack of concentration.

  The reason why some teenagers really go to the hospital is that there is a problem in their learning status. After analyzing a large number of cases, it is found that the first and third grades of primary school are the peak periods for children to suffer from ADHD.

  Xiong Jie’s children have just entered the first grade this year, and the teacher will ask Xiong Jie for advice: Why can’t some children in the class concentrate on the lecture anyway? This directly leads to their inability to keep up with their studies. "If six or seven-year-old children can only concentrate for a few minutes, they will definitely not be able to study normally." Xiong Jie said.

  The study found that some sick children have high IQ, and they can not concentrate on each class for a long time in the first and second grades, but they can also learn some knowledge, and they can barely keep up with the learning progress by being smart. Generally, in the third grade, academic performance will drop significantly. At this time, if you don’t see a doctor again, by the sixth grade and junior high school, your child will face more serious problems. "It is often that academic performance is not good and interpersonal communication is not good. How do children find themselves unloved?" Qian Ying said that children will feel inferior because of this, and with the advent of adolescence, many children have a stiff relationship with their parents.

  Qian Ying opposes that some parents often say that their children are too rebellious in adolescence. "In fact, the child is wronged in his heart. He can’t control himself, but there is something wrong with dopamine in his brain." Through contact with a large number of patients, Qian Ying found that if children at this time did not feel the warmth of teachers, classmates and relatives, and did not see a doctor in time, they were most likely to get into bad habits, such as indulging in the Internet, smoking, drinking and even committing crimes.

  Xiong Jie and experts from the Sixth Hospital of Peking University once went to a drug rehabilitation center for investigation, and found that the proportion of drug addicts with ADHD in childhood was very high, and they basically did not receive professional intervention. Many people’s life trajectories are also surprisingly similar: from poor academic performance to behavioral problems, they gradually affect their emotions and appear personality defects, and then they are misled by others to further develop drug addiction … …

  Professional treatment should be promoted to preschool age.

  "Attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder" has the same obvious influence on a person as an adult.

  Among the cases studied in Peking University Sixth Hospital, lateness and procrastination are the most common problems. Some patients have never been able to go to work on time, and serious "starting difficulties" have made him often criticized by leaders; Some patients are seriously procrastinating and incompetent, and are considered irresponsible by colleagues; Some people have serious emotional problems because of self-blame, and their social status as adults is very low, and they can’t keep up with their peers.

  Some patients will show "high function". A doctoral student in Peking University, whose research ability is not weak, has been unable to start writing a thesis; A 40-year-old university teacher completed his knowledge accumulation by amazing self-discipline, but he had to make a particularly strict time schedule to complete his work. After becoming a doctoral tutor, he had to rely on drugs to improve his attention to complete his teaching and research tasks.

  Qian Ying believes that to prevent similar problems in adulthood, it is necessary to intervene from an early age. One of her important research directions is preschool intervention. At present, the internationally accepted cognition is "early judgment, early action and active treatment". Qian Ying explained that this means that it is not necessary to make a diagnosis for preschool children with ADHD, but it is necessary to carry out professional intervention, especially non-drug intervention, as soon as possible.

  Qian Ying was particularly pleased that after the opening of the adolescent learning disability clinic in the Second People’s Hospital of Guizhou Province for half a year, she had the first preschool child to see a doctor. Although the final diagnosis showed that the child was not ADHD, Qian Ying believed that this showed that parents in the western region began to sprout their understanding of the disease.

  Qian Ying explained that people’s brains will be more mature when they reach a certain age, but people’s executive skills will last longer, and some people will continue to develop into adulthood. Some professional methods can be used to promote the development level of children with slow development of executive skills.

  At present, Peking University Sixth Hospital and Shenzhen Children’s Hospital are jointly trying to intervene on "attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder" before school, and foreign professional researchers are also involved. Qian Ying found that after several months of training, some children made obvious progress. "The exact conclusion may be studied in five years." Qian Ying said.

  Going to a mental health hospital for treatment is a difficult psychological hurdle to overcome.

  In order to let more families know about the treatment knowledge of preschool ADHD, Qian Ying wrote a book on how to carry out family group training of executive skills, so that more parents can find problems, pay attention to them and make some active interventions for their children.

  She believes that it is more important to let parents and children really sit in front of professional doctors, but the current embarrassment is that professional doctors often take their children into these places in mental health research institutions or "mental hospitals" that people often express, which is still difficult for many people.

  Qian Ying noticed that some private early education institutions have set up children’s concentration training courses, and the fees are ten times or even dozens of times that of public hospitals. Many parents are willing to sign up their children. She believes that on the one hand, it is necessary to see that these institutions are mixed and there are no teaching standards, and the professionalism of teachers may not be qualified for the curriculum requirements; On the other hand, in the future, professional medical institutions can cooperate with educational institutions to integrate professional knowledge into the curriculum of kindergartens and schools, which will be more acceptable to children and parents.

  WU GANG, director of the Women and Children’s Department of the Second People’s Hospital of Guizhou Province, also said, "I hope that professional outpatient clinics can drive more people to pay attention to the psychological problems of teenagers, and treat them as a cold." WU GANG plans to get a batch of professional diagnosis and treatment equipment for departments, send more medical staff to participate in professional study, and build a platform for cooperation with educational institutions and non-profit organizations in the future, so as to drive away the "sense of shame" under old ideas and let more children with ADHD receive treatment happily.

Biden arrived in Hiroshima with the "nuclear button" at the G-7 summit to discuss sanctions against Russian diamonds or push up global prices.

  ■ According to the latest news from AFP, the leaders of the Group of Seven (G7) announced during the Hiroshima Summit on the 19th local time that they agreed to impose new sanctions on Russia. As early as the end of April, foreign media revealed that G7 was planning to "almost completely ban exports to Russia". At that time, Russia warned that this move would only aggravate the risk of global economic crisis.

  ■ According to a recent report on the US CNBC website, the Group of Seven is discussing the imposition of sanctions on Russian diamond exports. Once the measures take effect, the global price of natural diamonds may be pushed up.

  ■ US President Biden arrived in Japan on 18th to attend the G7 Summit in Hiroshima, and met with Japanese Prime Minister kishida fumio before the summit officially started. According to the report, among the briefcases carried by Biden’s aides, there is a suitcase used by the President of the United States to order the authorization to use nuclear weapons.

  A new sanction

  Restrict the export of goods that are "vital to Russia on the battlefield"

  Crack down on entities that help Russia deliver goods to the front.

  Agence France-Presse reported that G7 leaders said that the new sanctions would "prevent Russia from obtaining G7 countries’ technology, industrial equipment and services to support its war machine". Sanctions include restricting the export of goods that are "vital to Russia on the battlefield" and cracking down on entities accused of helping Russia deliver goods to the front.

  Bloomberg, Kyodo News and other media reported on April 21 this year that western countries headed by the United States are considering a near-total ban on exports to Russia. According to these reports, G7 officials will discuss the proposal to increase Russia’s overall weight before the Hiroshima Summit on May 19th and 21st, with the aim of wooing all EU member states and weakening Russia’s economic and military strength together. In this regard, Russia quickly responded. Russian newspaper Izvestia reported at that time that Russian Presidential Press Secretary peskov said: "We know that both the United States and the European Union are actively considering new sanctions. We believe that these new and additional measures will definitely hit the global economy. This will only aggravate the risk of global economic crisis. "

  At present, the Group of Seven is discussing specific measures for Russian diamond exports, especially how to use technology to trace the original source of diamonds and confirm that diamonds come from Russia. In 2021, Russian diamond export revenue reached 4.7 billion US dollars (about 33 billion yuan). Among them, Russia’s Alrosa Company is one of the largest diamond mining and processing enterprises in the world, and its proven reserves in Russia are 650 million carats. According to industry data, Alrosa’s diamond mining capacity accounts for 90% of the total diamond mining in Russia.

  It is reported that since the conflict between Russia and Ukraine broke out in February last year, Russia’s diamond exports have basically not been subject to large-scale sanctions internationally. According to Eurostat data, the EU imported about 1.4 billion euros (about 10.6 billion yuan) of Russian diamonds last year. Earlier last year, the United States listed Alrosa on the sanctions list of the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the Ministry of Finance. According to the requirements, all customers and other counterparties must stop trading with Alrosa as soon as possible. Some diamond dealers in Europe are worried that sanctions may lead to higher purchase costs and push up the global price of natural diamonds.

  A dramatic scene

  Nuclear briefcase and "cookies" appeared in Hiroshima.

  Biden is not going to apologize for dropping an atomic bomb in World War II.

  According to a report by the Effie news agency Hiroshima on May 19th, US President Biden arrived in Japan on the 18th to attend the G7 Summit and took a briefcase with him to Hiroshima, which attracted media attention.

  According to the report, this briefcase, known as the "nuclear button", weighs about 20 kilograms and is made of black leather. It has always accompanied the President of the United States to visit home and abroad. On the 18th, when the US presidential plane "Air Force One" arrived in Japan, a military assistant of Biden was seen disembarking with this famous briefcase, which contained the necessary agreement to launch a nuclear attack.

  It is reported that the nuclear briefcase is always carried by a member of the armed forces in the president’s entourage. It was designed by former US President John F. Kennedy after the Cuban missile crisis. Details about how this device works have not been announced, but some nuclear weapons experts have been revealing information about its working principle in recent years. For example, expert Stephen Schwartz revealed in a podcast program of the US Arms Control and Non-proliferation Center in 2021 that there is not only one "nuclear button", but at least three.

  According to him, the nuclear briefcase contains not the complex military technology depicted in Hollywood movies, but a large number of documents, including the instructions of the broadcasting system that allow the president of the United States to speak to the public in the event of an attack. The briefcase also contains a list of locations on land, at sea and in the air, and the president can take refuge in the event of an attack. There is also a document that records all the attack options. According to Schwartz, it is similar to a menu with food icons to show the possibility and destructiveness of different attacks.

  Schwartz said that the most important thing to launch a nuclear attack is not a nuclear briefcase, but a small card called "biscuit" or "golden code" to verify the identity of the president.

  Contrary to what many movies imagine, the head of state has no red button to launch missiles, and "cookies" do not contain secret nuclear codes.

  According to the report, these codes are locked in the Pentagon, so if the US president wants to launch a nuclear attack, the first thing he has to do is to use a special phone carried by his military assistant to contact the officials of the Missile Command. Then the president of the United States must use the alphanumeric code on the "biscuit" to verify his identity, and then he can start the attack process.

  However, the report pointed out that the appearance of nuclear briefcases and "biscuits" in Hiroshima was very dramatic. Because the United States dropped an atomic bomb named "Little Boy" on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, it immediately killed about 80,000 people, accounting for about 30% of Hiroshima’s population at that time. By the end of 1945, the death toll had risen to about 140,000. In the following years, the number of victims of radiation effects more than doubled.

  It is reported that Japanese Prime Minister kishida fumio, whose hometown is Hiroshima, hopes that the G7 summit starting on 19th will help promote nuclear disarmament, but this task is not easy, and Washington has shown little willingness. Jack Sullivan, assistant to the president of the United States for national security affairs, told the media this week that Biden did not intend to apologize for the destruction of Hiroshima by the atomic bomb. Former US President Barack Obama did not apologize when he visited Hiroshima in 2016.

  Slip of the tongue again

  Biden mistakenly called kishida fumio "the president."

  Japanese netizens are sarcastic, but fortunately they are not "governors"

  According to Kyodo News, US President Biden, who is visiting Japan, made another slip of the tongue when meeting with Japanese Prime Minister kishida fumio on the 18th, and mistakenly called Kishida "the president".

  Kyodo News said that Biden used his speech when he spoke at the talks with Kishida on the 18th, and when he greeted Kishida impromptu at the beginning of the talks, Biden made the above slip of the tongue. Biden, who is 80 years old, is the oldest American president in history. His slip of the tongue is not uncommon, but the Japanese media did not forget to help Biden find reasons when reporting. Kyodo News specifically mentioned that "Biden has just experienced a long-distance trip across the Pacific Ocean".

  The report that Biden called Kishida "president" by mistake also attracted the attention of Japanese netizens. Some people think that Biden "should retire". On the other hand, some Japanese netizens sarcastically said, "Fortunately, he was called ‘ President ’ , not ‘ Governor ’ " .

As of 19: 00 pm on February 16th, the movie "Tang Tan 3" has exceeded 100 million yuan at the box office for four consecutive days since its release, and the total box office has exceeded 3.3 billion yuan, ranking first in the Spring Festival box office, and it has also become the first director in Chinese to break 10 billion yuan at the box office with this film.


As early as the spring of 2018, "Tang Tan 2", which won 3.4 billion box office, created the first movie box office record in film history that broke 300 million in a single day for five consecutive days. So, what kind of miracle will the much-anticipated "Tang Detective 3" finally create?



On the fifth day of Lunar New Year’s Eve, the planner and the film producer teacher came to visit China Film Report to have a taste with you. The real charm of Tang Tan 3, a "national film", lies in it.


2021 Spring Festival Special Program — — "Tang Tan" in Spring Festival Dialect


Chen Sicheng’s "Three Entering the Palace"


The most important thing about the "three palaces" and trilogy is the overall construction layout besides the story of each part. Since the film was released in 2015, the "Tang Exploration" series has also ushered in two subsequent films and online dramas, and "Tang Exploration of the Universe" has gradually gained the recognition of the audience. Wang Baoqiang and Haoran Liu said, "Director Chen Sicheng plunged into his creation in the past five or six years, and conceived the layout of the series very early, and the concept of exploring the universe in Tang Dynasty was naturally formed.".



"In the past five years, with this series, not only Baoqiang and Haoran are growing, but I am also growing." With emotion, Chen Sicheng also revealed more thoughts about the series of Tang Detective. "In the future, more independent detective films will be prepared and brought to different audiences.". Finally, he also said, "I especially hope that" Tang Detective 3 "is a new beginning." After all, Tang Detective 4 has decided to shoot in a new country, and he also promised Haoran Liu a "female partner".


As early as last year’s Spring Festival, Wang Baoqiang published a long article about Weibo, recounting the unforgettable shooting experience of "Tang Tan" series and the mental journey of playing "Tang Ren", feeling that "Tang Ren is the role that has been with me for the longest time". The lines are full of love for this series.



Wang Baoqiang also expressed the changing understanding of the role of "Tang Ren". Tang Ren seemed to have a lot of fun. "But when I played, I thought, after so many setbacks and failures, he can still live such an active and happy life in a foreign country, and he will never be knocked down by life. He is a strong man in life."



"Actors and roles are mutually integrated", and Haoran Liu himself mentioned the feeling of growing up with the role Qin Feng. From "Tang Tan 1", the fledgling new actor will be corrected and directed by Chen Sicheng and Wang Baoqiang. In "Tang Tan 3", Qin Feng will wear a trench coat and begin to have his own understanding of the role, which is the boy’s five-year growth.



The role of Qin Feng, from a boy who stutters and is immersed in his own world in Tang Detective 1, meets his cousin Tang Ren (Wang Baoqiang) and forms a "Chinatown Detective Group", and keeps opening up his own world and feeling the power brought by family and friendship; At the same time, he began to face his inner choices in the process of challenging his strong opponents and solving increasingly difficult cases.



In "Tang Detective 1", Qin Feng said that his greatest wish was to have a perfect crime when he was admitted to the Criminal Police College. Later, Sinuo (ornaments) also asked Qin Feng, "Some people are good, others are evil, and what about you?" Qin Feng, who has always wanted to complete the "perfect crime", has the characteristics of chaos between good and evil, and even wandered in the gray area between black and white, so he is in "Tang Detective 3". Is he blackened? Why is he in prison? This is undoubtedly one of the biggest suspense in this film.


China, Japan and Thailand killed three countries! The strongest Asian cast is coming.


Following the "Bangkok Gold Murder" in 2015 and the "new york Five Elements Serial Murder" in 2018, the "Chinatown Detective Group" Tang Ren and Qin Feng were invited to Tokyo by Japanese detective Noda Hao in the third film to investigate a bizarre murder. Thus, Tang Ren and Qin Feng from China, Noda Hao (ornaments) from Japan and Jack Jia (ornaments) from Thailand formed the "Asian Detective Alliance" from China, Japan and Thailand.



In addition, famous Japanese actors, Japanese actor, Japanese actor, Japanese actor, Japanese actor, Japanese actor, Japanese actor, Japanese actor, Japanese actor, Japanese actor, Japanese actor, Japanese actor, Japanese actor, Japanese actor, Japanese actor, Japanese actor and Zifeng Zhang, as well as the male and female leading actors of the online drama "Tang Tan", reunited with "Tang Tan 3" to form the strongest cast for the Spring Festival in history.



Director Chen Sicheng said in an earlier interview, "I especially hope that this film will be remembered by all the people, including my teenage goddess, Ms. Honami Suzuki. Because at that time, she made me always dream of cooperation, and since this time it was filmed in Japan, we must mobilize all our resources to invite actors who can have some emotional resonance with the China audience. "



According to Tan Fei’s words, "Tang Tan 3" invited Japanese national treasure actor Tomokazu Miura this time. When the music of "Remembrance" and "Blood Suspicion" was played, everyone would cry. In his view, such a strong lineup still has a regret: if you can see the back of Shibuya Cross Street, it will be perfect.


When talking about multi-national actors, Wang Baoqiang also said that when there are more detectives, there will be chats in four or five languages in one venue. When analyzing cases, it will naturally increase the difficulty of performance. I don’t know where to go and who to pick up, but it is also more interesting to take action.


The most dazzling Japanese style! Travel with the movie.


In Chen Sicheng’s view, the most interesting thing about "Tang Tan" series is that Chinatown in each region is a particularly interesting mixture of China culture and local culture. Japanese cultural symbols are very clear and rich, so we first achieved some interaction with Japanese culture in the plot. Tan Fei also thinks that from the names of Qin Feng and Tang Ren, Qin Dynasty and Tang Dynasty are the most prosperous dynasties in China, and also the dynasties with the closest relationship with Japan, so many Japanese skills are also presented in the film.



From Bangkok to new york to Tokyo, every "Chinatown" can bring a new feeling to the audience. When he came to Tokyo this time, director Chen Sicheng unlocked the world’s busiest crossroads, such as Shibuya, Shinjuku, a famous Japanese business district, and Akihabara, which rarely appeared in world movies, and even copied and restored a one-to-one busiest intersection in Shibuya, just to shoot a scene of "throwing money".


After solving the problem of Shibuya, the crew of "Tang Tan 3" is faced with the problem of Akihabara. According to Chen Sicheng, "What is difficult is the operation under particularly limited conditions. I remember that during my two days in Akihabara, we were only given three hours a day, but they said it might rain, so they asked me if I wanted to shoot, because the street in Akihabara had never been closed for filming in Japanese history, and "Tang Tan 3" was the first time. After thinking for a while, I said shoot. I have always had an obsession that if I can finish filming, I will always feel that people will conquer nature. "

 


In addition to the scenery in Japan, there is also local culture. "Tang Detective 3" invited Tony Jaa, a master of Muay Thai, and was destined to make a big impact on the action drama. This time, we will see the confrontation between Muay Thai and Japanese kendo. According to Tony Jaa, "I used to beat others, but this time it was finally my turn to be beaten, and even I had to call an ambulance. Director Chen Sicheng asked me to show the strength and speed of Muay Thai and the accuracy of the whole punch. With the scene of Kendo, more Japanese elements will be added in the process of this fight, so that the audience can have a brand-new experience. "



As the action of the series "Tang Detective", Tang Ren’s Nanpai Mojia Boxing also met a strong opponent this time — — Japanese sumo. Wang Baoqiang jokingly said in an interview: "I’m totally out of proportion. That size, that body, it weighs more than 300 kilograms! Think about it, he can’t get up when he lies down. I push him like a stone, and I can’t push him down at all. It will be really hard during that fight. I don’t feel anything when I punch someone, just like tickling. "



I believe that many movie fans have already felt the happiness brought by "Tang Detective 3" in the cinema for the first time, but they still want to brush it again, while some of the audience friends may not have time to watch it because the venue is full — — Then, participate in the following activities and meet your friends at the cinema!


Ice and Fire of Cross-border E-commerce: Shopify Wintering and SHEIN Attacking

Image source @ vision china

Wen | Value Institute

It was officially launched in 2006, positioning itself as a one-stop e-commerce service platform and providing various online services for retail business customers. It took 16 years for a small company with only a five-person start-up team to grow into the second largest cross-border e-commerce giant in North America with a peak market value of over 160 billion US dollars. Shopify’s family history is legendary enough.

But Shopify, who has eaten all the dividends of the times along the way, is now on the brakes.

The financial report for the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 released before the US stock market closed on Thursday showed that the performance of Shopify’s core financial data was not satisfactory: the revenue growth rate dropped significantly, while the loss continued to increase.

After the financial report was released, Shopify has fallen for two consecutive days, and closed down nearly 15% on Thursday, falling to the lowest point since April last year. In addition, National Bank of Canada, Citigroup and many other big banks have all lowered their Shopify target prices, and the capital market’s evaluation of this financial report is self-evident.

The decline in profits and the increase in losses are not only related to the slowdown in revenue growth, but also the increase in costs and the unexpected transformation of revenue structure. More importantly, the gross profit margin of subscription solution business with relatively low revenue is much higher than that of merchant subscription service.

In the research reports of Wall Street investment banks, Shopify’s "internal troubles and external troubles" are all mentioned: internal troubles are naturally the decline in revenue growth and the amplification of losses, while external troubles are directed at rising external competitors.

Under the internal and external troubles, can Shopify ride the wind and waves?

Before the US stock market opened on Thursday, cross-border e-commerce giant Shopify announced its financial report for the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, and the performance of various core financial data was not satisfactory.

This is not ideal, mainly in two aspects: one is the decline in revenue growth, and the other is the amplification of losses.

First look at the overall revenue situation.From the revenue growth curve, although the actual revenue scale of Shopify has not greatly regressed, it is an indisputable fact that the revenue growth rate continues to decline.

The data shows that Shopify’s total revenue in the first quarter was $1.204 billion, which was less than the market expectation of $1.24 billion, up 22% year-on-year. In the four quarters of the last fiscal year, Shopify’s revenue was 988 million, 1.119 billion, 1.223 billion and 1.338 billion US dollars respectively, and the corresponding year-on-year growth rates were 110%, 57%, 46% and 41% respectively, which were much higher than the first quarter of this year.

In the view of the Value Institute, Shopify’s revenue bid farewell to the era of high growth, largely due to the gradual decline of cross-border e-commerce dividends brought about by the epidemic. The most direct evidence is the decline in the growth rate of Shopify merchants and GMV.

As the epidemic has had a serious impact on the global offline retail industry, e-commerce has become a direct beneficiary. In the whole year of 2020, Shopify has a net increase of 700,000 merchants, which makes the industry look askance. However, this hot market disappeared in the second half of last year. Shopify executives also admitted in the fourth quarter of last year’s financial report that "the outbreak of e-commerce industry induced by the epidemic only lasted until the first half of 2021", and the number of new businesses in the last fiscal year shrank sharply to 300,000.

In fact, since the second half of last year, Shopify has continuously launched various preferential activities and innovative activities, including cooperation with Tik Tok and JD.COM, trying to promote the continuous growth of the number of merchants, but the effect is not satisfactory.

GMV recorded $43.2 billion in the first quarter, which was also less than the market expectation of $46.5 billion. The year-on-year growth rate of 16% was far from that of 114% in the same period last year. You know, in the second half of last year, Shopify’s GMV still maintained a year-on-year growth of more than 50%, and the great decline in the first quarter disappointed the market.

Secondly, while revenue growth is stagnant, Shopify’s loss situation is not optimistic.

In the first quarter, Shopify’s net loss was $1.474 billion, which was further enlarged compared with $12.6 in the same period last year. The diluted loss per share was $1.17 billion, which was significantly lower than the diluted earnings per share of $9.94 in the first quarter of last year.

The decline in profits and the increase in losses are not only related to the slowdown in revenue growth, but also the increase in costs and the unexpected transformation of revenue structure.

At present, Shopify’s revenue mainly depends on subscription solution business and merchant solution business, and the latter accounts for the bulk of revenue. In the first quarter, the revenue of merchant solution business was US$ 859 million, a year-on-year increase of 29%; Subscription solution business revenue was $345 million, up only 8% year-on-year.

Compared with historical data, the revenue growth rate of the two business segments in the first quarter is not high. In the same period last year, the subscription solution business revenue was $321 million, a year-on-year increase of 77%; The revenue and year-on-year growth rate of merchant solution business were as high as 668 million US dollars and 136% respectively.

More importantly, the gross profit margin of subscription solution business is much higher than that of merchant subscription service.

The revenue of subscription solution business mainly comes from e-commerce SaaS services such as subscription function packages, plug-ins and customer management. The merchant solution business relies on payment, logistics, warehousing and other charging services provided for settled merchants to make profits.

In the first quarter financial report, Shopify highlighted the acquisition of Deliverr, indicating that it will expand the scope of performance services. Amy Shapero, CFO of Shopify, expressed her belief that Deliverer can simplify the process, guarantee the delivery promise and provide more advantages for merchants.

It can be seen that the merchant solution business is still the main direction of Shopify in the future. However, the relatively high operating costs, especially the high cost of technical facilities for logistics and warehousing, seriously restrict the gross profit level of this business.

In other words, with the current revenue structure, it is difficult for Shopify to push up the profit margin when the epidemic dividend fades and the revenue growth rate declines.

Of course, Shopify is not the only one who is worried about profits.

In the first quarter of this year, Amazon released the worst financial report in recent years. Among them, the revenue, profit rate and other indicators of e-commerce related businesses declined in an all-round way, and even recorded the first loss since 2015, which directly caused Amazon’s share price to plummet and its market value evaporated by 200 billion US dollars overnight.

Shopify’s share price performance is also not optimistic. After the financial report was released, Shopify has fallen for two consecutive days, and closed down nearly 15% on Thursday, falling to the lowest point since April last year.

In fact, after the financial report, Amazon and Shopify have been lowered by many Wall Street banks, and the capital market is full of worries about the prospects of these two high-quality stocks. The latter, in particular, has been looked down upon by Citigroup, National Bank of Canada, Steffel, etc., and Citigroup drastically lowered its target price from $534 to $432.

In the research reports of these investment banks, Shopify’s "internal troubles and external troubles" are mentioned: internal troubles are naturally the decline in revenue growth and the amplification of losses, while external troubles are directed at emerging external competitors.

Some of our strongest rivals happen to be from China.

Unlike Shopify, which entered the winter, the domestic cross-border e-commerce industry is still in a thriving trend.

According to the report of Forward-looking Industry Research Institute, after 2019, the domestic cross-border e-commerce industry entered a period of rapid development, and the overall market scale reached 6.05 trillion by the first half of last year. The data shows that in the past three years, the growth rate of cross-border e-commerce transactions in China has remained above 16%, and the penetration rate has increased from 22% five years ago to 38.86%.

Looking back at the development of domestic cross-border e-commerce market, we can find that capital has been looking for the next Shopify.

According to Zhitong’s financial statistics, dozens of cross-border e-commerce SaaS companies, such as Aike Technology, Le Yan Technology, Lingxing ERP and Dianxiaomi, have gained a new round of financing in the past year, with a total financing scale of over 2.5 billion. In addition, Zan, Weimeng and veteran cross-border e-commerce giant Weimeng are all making efforts in cross-border SaaS business.

Among them, MyyShop under Dunhuang Network and Shopexpress under Weimeng have the most obvious upward trend.

Compared with Shopify, MyyShop and Shopexpress are far apart in scale, but their advantage lies in the huge market of China and the complete e-commerce industry chain behind them. When Shopify announced its strategic cooperation with JD.COM, it publicly acknowledged that China sellers are the most active cross-border e-commerce sellers in the world and play an important role in the industrial chain.

However, as Shopify bid farewell to the era of high growth and fell into the altar, followers such as MyyShop and Shopexpress may need to rethink:Is the e-commerce SaaS model profitable? Is it really possible to copy Shopify’s growth myth?

The value research institute believes that SHEIN, who lives next to MyyShop and Shopexpress, may be able to solve some doubts.

As the hottest cross-border e-commerce platform in recent years, SHEIN’s legendary color is not inferior to Shopify.The completely different revenue structure and business performance of the two perfectly explain the similarities and differences, advantages and disadvantages of SaaS and DTC business models in cross-border e-commerce industry.

According to Apptopia’s data, the total download volume of SHEIN in 2021 was 190 million, which was 70% higher than that in 2020, and it has surpassed Amazon to become the most downloaded shopping APP in the world. According to foreign media reports, SHEIN’s current valuation is as high as 100 billion US dollars, three times that of a year ago; Last year’s revenue was expected to be $15.7 billion, up nearly 60% year-on-year & mdash; — In the previous eight years, SHEIN had created the myth of 100% revenue growth for eight consecutive years.

Up to now, SHEIN’s share in the North American fast fashion market is close to 30%, which is equivalent to the sum of ZARA and H&M. In the eyes of the latter, SHEIN has already become the number one enemy. For the followers of SHEIN and the capital behind them, SHEIN’s performance is equivalent to a barometer of the cross-border e-commerce market to some extent.

Of course, it’s not just foreign giants who are jealous of SHEIN. At home, Ali, JD.COM and other established e-commerce overlords, as well as ByteDance, who also want to have a place in overseas markets, have long regarded SHEIN as their number one rival.

At the end of last year, Alibaba launched the fashion shopping app "Allly Likes" focusing on the women’s market overseas, betting heavily on the North American market. It should be noted that Ali’s cross-border business has always taken the comprehensive e-commerce route. AllyLikes is the first time to try the vertical e-commerce model, which is the performance of Ali’s initiative to change.

The North American market that Ali bet heavily on is not only the base camp of Amazon and Shopify, but also an important granary of SHEIN — — No matter from which angle, Ali’s marching north will inevitably further intensify market competition.

Objectively speaking, it is not the SaaS mode of e-commerce led by Shopify that leads the domestic cross-border e-commerce boom, but the DTC mode led by Alibaba International Station and SHEIN.

According to the statistics of the survey agency Grand View Research, it is estimated that by 2025, the scale of the global decentralized e-commerce market dominated by independent stations will rise sharply to more than 550 billion US dollars. Cross-border e-commerce platforms from China have stepped into the North American battlefield, which will undoubtedly pose a great threat to local e-commerce platforms in the United States and Canada.

However, the recent experience of Shopify and Amazon also has important warning significance for the famous SHEIN and its imitators Ali and Byte.

ShopifyAnd Amazon, Ali, SHEIN, Byte, all must deal with the contradiction between cost and profit rate.Behind this is not only the dispute between SaaS and DTC, but also the supply chain management problems that B2B, B2C and other business models can’t avoid.

Undoubtedly, the epidemic has indeed brought a series of uncertainties to the cross-border e-commerce industry, and also put forward new requirements for players in the market.

The SaaS e-commerce platform headed by Shopify and the DTC cross-border e-commerce represented by SHEIN broke out, which was related to the blocking of offline business channels after the outbreak. The tightening of offline supply chain also brought rare e-commerce dividends.

In addition, there is another thing in common between them — — B2C model is playing an increasingly important role.

In the current core battlefield of North America, B2C is more popular than B2B.The reason why this happens is related to the consumption habits of North American consumers and the popularity of cross-border e-commerce business.

According to statistics from iResearch, 61% of consumers in the United States are willing to shop on international websites, accounting for 32% of cross-border online shopping consumption, while the proportion in Canada is 33%. The C-end consumption firepower is almost equal to the B-end. It is precisely because local consumers in North America are enthusiastic about cross-border consumption, and the repurchase rate and single-time consumption are at the leading level in the world, so cross-border independent stations are increasingly prosperous, and the increase in supply promotes consumption growth, forming a virtuous circle.

Historical data shows that after 2016, Shopify’s merchant solution business surpassed the subscription solution business with 52% of revenue, and then the gap between the two became wider and wider. During this period, Shopify relied on building an independent station to help merchants connect with C-end resources, which not only rapidly improved the brand image and popularity, but also significantly broadened the revenue channels, providing opportunities for small and medium-sized businesses in North America to get rid of Amazon monopoly.

Now that Ali and SHEIN want to spread the war to North America, it is natural to learn from the successful experience of their predecessors and identify the pain points of local customers — — That is, do a good job of localized operation.

Many people attribute the success of SHEIN to the rapid decline of products and high cost performance, but ignore its user operation ability.

Tracking user preferences through big data and technical means is one of SHEIN’s most important operating principles. According to official data, SHEIN is a big customer of Google Trend Finder, and the two sides have been working closely together in customer data management. In addition, SHEIN has a team of 800 buyers who track users’ consumption habits through offline channels.

The two-pronged SHEIN can even be said to be the one with the strongest user thinking and the most successful localized operation among a number of cross-border e-commerce platforms in China.

However, as mentioned above, Shopify’s SaaS model or SHEIN’s self-operated model has an obvious defect in sticking to the B2C route:Operating costs are high, and the industrial chain links connecting upstream and downstream are more complicated, which is facing a severe test in management.

Compared with B2B model, B2C model involves complicated links such as distribution, retail, after-sales service, terminal warehousing, logistics and payment finance because it wants to connect C-end consumers, and the rising cost pressure is almost inevitable.

To put it another way, strengthening supply chain management is the inevitable choice to reduce costs and the key to break through the profit bottleneck in the future.

As for the specific practices, Shopify, which is positioned as a SaaS service platform, and SHEIN, which is a self-operated business, naturally have their own emphasis. But they are similar in one thing — —Strengthen the control of all links in the supply chain and firmly grasp the core links with higher profit margins in your own hands.

The acquisition of Deliverr is Shopify’s performance in strengthening the control of downstream logistics and warehousing. At the moment when the competition is gradually becoming fierce, whoever can solve the supply chain problem faster will be able to take the initiative.

According to foreign media reports, Amazon launched the "Santos Plan" internally at the beginning of last year, headed by Peter Larsen, vice president of Amazon consumption, and assembled a large number of elite employees in Amazon’s retail consumption department, with the goal of positively strangling Shopify, which is rapidly emerging.

At that time, Shopify was in its heyday, and its market share was almost equal to eBay, and then it officially took the second place in the cross-border e-commerce market in North America. Shopify, which made its fortune by small and medium-sized business customers, has many similarities with Alibaba to some extent. These two giants also pose a great threat to Amazon, the e-commerce overlord, at different times.

Looking back now, Amazon may have overestimated the power of Shopify, but I didn’t expect the sudden emergence of SHEIN to become a new menace.

From Amazon, eBay, Alibaba, and now Shopify, SHEIN and Shopee, cross-border e-commerce has been on the rise and fall for more than a decade, and no one can tell what new stories will happen in the next stage. From SaaS to DTC, from B2B to B2C, no one can predict which model will continue to shine in the future.

Only one thing is certain: the popularity of cross-border e-commerce remains high, and players from all walks of life will not give up this treasure easily. This means that more intense fighting is yet to come.

Exclusive planning | Before his death, he left this masterpiece with 9.5 points!


Special feature of 1905 film network "At this stage of my life, all I can do is to play a few tracks wholeheartedly every day. Maybe it’s because of overwork. After shooting, I feel overwhelmed. After only one month or so, my condition has deteriorated. Even so, I am deeply gratified because I was able to complete a performance that satisfied me before I passed away. "At the end of the letter to my beloved fans, I wrote like this.


He also devoted his love for music and the deep affection of fans to this "life performance" and merged it into a documentary, which became the last gift left by the music master to the world.


The film was directed by Kong Yinyang, the son of Ryuichi Sakamoto, and appeared in 2023.venice international film festivalThe non-competition unit was shown during this year’s Beijing International Film Festival, and gained a super high score of 9.5 points.With the official release of the film, more fans and fans will be able to say goodbye to the master on the big screen.



Ryuichi Sakamoto is not only a world-renowned composer and music producer, but also has an indissoluble bond with movies.


He is an actor, a veteran movie fan and a "gifted musician". He has written music for more than 40 films and won many awards such as Oscar, Golden Globe Award, Grammy Award and British Film Academy Award.



On March 28th, 2023, Ryuichi Sakamoto died of cancer, and filmmakers all over the world also sent articles to mourn.Wrote: I can’t bear to leave you. Those who have worked with him said: Ryuichi Sakamoto is a rare artist, and his creative passion burns to the end. It is even more sad to say: "Merry Christmas on the Battlefield", I am the only one left.


Stephen Chow and Kitano Takeshi mourn Ryuichi Sakamoto.


Because of his contribution to Sino-Japanese exchanges, a spokesman for the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs also expressed condolences: Mr. Sakamoto was enthusiastic about Sino-Japanese cultural exchanges, and created many excellent music works with China elements. He made contributions to friendly exchanges between the two countries through practical actions.


The people of Sri Lanka are gone, and the music is endless. Let’s follow the movement in "Ryuichi Sakamoto: Masterpiece" and pick up memento mori who "taught" movies and China.


And movies


Merry Christmas on the Battlefield 41 years ago was the first time that Ryuichi Sakamoto appeared in a movie, and it was also the first time that he created a soundtrack for the movie.


A major feature of this classic anti-war film in film history directed by is the gathering of three seemingly "irrelevant" cross-border actors, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Kitano Takeshi, and their wonderful chemical reactions.



In his autobiography, Ryuichi Sakamoto recalled the excitement when he was invited by idol Nagisa ?shima to play, but he didn’t say "good" directly, but suggested that "please let me do the soundtrack." I didn’t expect Nagisa ?shima to agree.


In this way, Ryuichi Sakamoto, who had no experience in film soundtrack, listened to the producer’s suggestion and bought a disc to start "learning from scratch", and wrote a classic handed down by feeling.



In particular, the well-known "Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence" combines the sensibility of Indonesian musical instruments such as Muyu and dulcimer with the ethereal of western electronic music, and the harmony and conflict between eastern and western melodies brings a clear and ethereal feeling, which hits the audience’s soul through the screen.


Ryuichi Sakamoto later recalled the creation process of this famous song. "It took me only 30 seconds to come up with the melody. I was sitting in front of the piano and subconsciously closed my eyes. When I opened my eyes, the melody and chord had already appeared on the score."


But he also said modestly: "It’s not bad as music, but it’s not that good as a movie soundtrack, it’s too high-profile. It is self-contained without even a picture. "



"Merry Christmas on the Battlefield" started Ryuichi Sakamoto’s film and television music career. In the next 40 years, he participated in the music work of business cards such as The Last Emperor, Wuthering Heights, Tony Long Valley and Life, and won numerous awards.


In 2014, Ryuichi Sakamoto was diagnosed with throat cancer, and still insisted on writing the soundtrack for alejandro gonzalez inarritu’s revenant. "I can’t say no to Inarido because I admire him so much."



Different from the general film soundtrack, the melody he created for revenant returned to the original, with a large blank space to set off the music of nature itself, highlighting the loneliness and ethereal wilderness.


"Nature is far above human beings in movies", which also reflects Ryuichi Sakamoto’s thinking about nature and life at that time.


In 2022, Ryuichi Sakamoto was invited to score the new film Monster. "If he refuses my invitation, there will be no music in this film."


Although the physical strength at that time was not enough to complete the creation of the whole film, Ryuichi Sakamoto still wrote two pieces of music for Monster, and said that all the published music could be used at will. This has also become the "legacy" of his film soundtrack.


At the end of the film, the old song "Water" composed by Ryuichi Sakamoto in 1999 emerges at the same time as the picture of children running from darkness to light.Music and light and shadow reached a wonderful resonance across time at that moment, and also painted the most perfect story of Ryuichi Sakamoto and the film.full stop.



With China.


"In five years’ time and ten years’ time, China will surely become an existence that cannot be ignored." In the book skmt: Who is Ryuichi Sakamoto, Ryuichi Sakamoto once talked about China like this.


And his fate with China goes back to The Last Emperor 38 years ago. He came to China with the crew as an actor, and stayed in Beijing, Dalian and Changchun for nearly half a year.


Talking about this period of time, Ryuichi Sakamoto, who is extremely sensitive to sound, said that what impressed him most was the sound of bicycles. At that time, the vitality of China society attracted him very much.


Ryuichi Sakamoto plays Masahiko Gump.


Ryuichi Sakamoto, who came with an actor’s mentality, didn’t expect the director Bertolucci to suddenly ask him to create music for Puyi’s enthronement ceremony, and he would play it on the shooting scene three days later, and he also used Moriquand to stimulate Ryuichi Sakamoto. "If he is, he should be able to write it on the spot."


The goading method was really useful. Ryuichi Sakamoto found a piano of the old Manchuria Film Association, cooperated with the local orchestra in China, and finished the creation of the enthronement song with high quality under very limited conditions.



What I didn’t expect was that six months later, Ryuichi Sakamoto received a phone call from the producer and formally invited him to compose the music for The Last Emperor. He spent one day listening to 20 China music anthologies, and two weeks completing 44 pieces of music interwoven with Chinese style and modern style, and he was exhausted and admitted to the hospital.


Ryuichi Sakamoto wrote in his autobiography that he liked Wen Xiu very much, and her line "I can’t stand it any more" was simply his own creative voice. And his impassioned variations for Wen Xiu’s departure have also become colorful paragraphs.


Everything comes to him who waits. The Last Emperor has become the pinnacle of Ryuichi Sakamoto’s film soundtrack, which perfectly combines western orchestral music, Chinese style elements and German expressionism style, setting off Puyi’s tragic life and undecided fate, and enabling him to achieve the Oscar Award, Golden Globe Award and British Film Academy Award "Grand Slam".

As a veteran movie fan, Ryuichi Sakamoto knows a lot about China movies. He likes the works of,, and also comments that his early works are "a very good way to let foreigners know about China’s history and culture".


During his cancer treatment, he especially loved the Shaw brothers’ kung fu films, which helped him relieve the pain.



During the epidemic, Ryuichi Sakamoto used music to support Wuhan many times, and cheered for China in the form of online performance.


The words "Made in Wuhan, China" are clearly printed on the cymbals in his studio. Finally, he said in Chinese: "Come on, everyone!"



As anti-war activists and environmentalists, Laozi and Taoism, who advocate nature and attach importance to ecological balance, have a great influence on Ryuichi Sakamoto. He said that his music was a "requiem" for a species extinct by human beings.


After the Fukushima nuclear accident, he also chose to use music to appease the people affected by the nuclear accident, and more firmly opposed the Japanese government’s various measures for nuclear power plants, saying that discharging nuclear sewage was "a crime against the whole planet."



Until the last few months of his life, Ryuichi Sakamoto still insisted on music and creation.


In the documentary, he once said: "Maybe I can live for twenty years, maybe I can live for ten years, or maybe I can only live for one year. I still have a heart. So in order not to leave regrets, I want to create more works that can be taken. "



Art is a thousand years old, life is exposed, people are dead, and music is endless.


At the end of Masterpiece, the figure of "Professor" gradually disappears, but the keys are still beating and playing a movement, just like his music is to the later generations, and the reverberation is endless.
