Looking for romance in science fiction! Fuzhou Roadshow of Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department


1905 movie network news The national roadshow of the film "Recruitment Conference of Alien Liaison Officers on Earth" came to the sixth stop in Fuzhou, Fujian on March 23rd. The director, screenwriter, screenwriter and starring walked into the cinema and Fuzhou University to have close interaction with the audience. This coastal city located in the lower reaches of the Minjiang River is warm and humid, with evergreen seasons. The beautiful and rich mountains and rivers must be pregnant with many interesting souls, which can resonate with the unique frequency of movies.

At the event, the audience enthusiastically shared their feelings of watching movies. "Science fiction films can still be so grounded, this is called comedy!" "I didn’t expect serious nonsense to be so funny, which is very humorous with postmodern splicing structure", "Poetry and aliens really don’t contradict each other at all", and the audience sincerely said that "one brush laughed, and after two brushes, the friend cried and said: He is just looking for an answer. I also cried. " The audience’s love and support for the film also touched and encouraged the main creators. Director Kong Dashan said: "You see a group of people in the film have a rough road, but in fact we are much worse than them when shooting." "If you can get some comfort from it, I think it is the meaning of this film."

The film "Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department" was produced by, supervised by, directed by Kong Dashan, starring, and starring Wang Yitong and. At present, the pre-sale of the film has been officially opened and will be released nationwide on April 1.

"Laughter at the scene almost knocked the ceiling off" Fuzhou, the roadshow of the film "Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department", stood in science fiction looking for romance.

On March 23rd, the national roadshow of "Space Exploration Editorial Department" and "Recruitment Conference of Alien Liaison Officers on Earth" came to Fuzhou, the sixth stop. Director and screenwriter Kong Dashan, screenwriter and starring Wang Yitong continued to look for people with the same frequency at the end of the universe. When watching the movie, the laughter at the scene came one after another. "I haven’t seen anything so funny for a long time," one audience jokingly described, "The laughter at the scene almost overturned the ceiling." "The director creates an absurd sense of joy with the huge difference between the hero’s reality and ideal, but he makes no secret of his sympathy, like singing an idealist’s sad song in a light tone, so the audience can always taste the thick sadness while laughing, which is very attractive." Another viewer directly classified Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department as "absurd science fiction", saying that the film allows everyone to "capture the truth and love of human nature from seemingly absurd daily life". "When you think it’s a layer of scams, it turns out to be the only way to the truth," she said emotionally. "This may also be a unique romance and helplessness of this film."

Many viewers were amazed by the performance of Wang Yitong, the screenwriter and star of Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department, in the film. I hope he can "quickly publish a collection of poems" and say that he is not only "well written in poetry", but also plays a very attractive role. "Wang Yitong himself made me want to see Sun Yitong again," an audience immediately said. "Even if it’s just to listen to him recite poems in Sichuan dialect, I have to brush it again." In this regard, Wang Yitong said that he was actually writing a poem for Sun Yitong, who lived in a very limited environment, but "has been receiving cosmic signals", so he used the romantic form of "poetry" to express his feelings from "all kinds of chaotic information".

"Even if you fall to the ground, you should look up at the starry sky." Fu college students found a brand-new hidden egg and were praised by director Kong Dashan.

At the post-screening event of Fuzhou University, a classmate couldn’t wait to share her feelings with the main creators, as if the film had opened a new world for her. "Now the Internet likes to use’ science fiction movies’ to describe romantic love." Then remove the science fiction elements in the film. "I think this is still a real’ science fiction movie’ because it makes me feel the ultimate romance and I want to cry when I watch it." She said that she really liked the part where the leading group got lost in the jungle, which was very "Peach Blossom Spring". A few people walk along a winding path of a stream, which is very poetic. " Another sharp-eyed classmate found a brand-new hidden egg in the film the first time she watched the movie. Listening to her analysis, Director Kong Dashan nodded frequently and cast an approving look. "You are the first person to find it, and it is better than what I want to say. Thank you very much."

At the event, a senior three director also came. He said that he really liked movies and wanted to enter the Beijing Film Academy to become the younger brother of director Kong Dashan. He said excitedly that although "the exam was not very good, I once thought about it or gave it up, but I am very grateful to the director for this film, which has strengthened my belief in being a preparatory filmmaker." The founders were also touched by his words, encouraging him to stick to it, as another audience shared, "When someone finally achieved his dream, he not only lit up his own life but also lit up others’ lives". I hope everyone can find their own direction when they are confused, as a film review that director Kong Dashan likes very much said: "Please follow the guidance of what you love, because that is the answer."


Korean media criticized Korean dramas without textual research, humiliated China and encouraged anti-Korean sentiment.


  The TV series Cain and Abel (I) has been criticized for depicting Shanghai, China as dark and backward. The TV series East of the Garden of Eden (Part II) once attracted attention because of its luxurious location, but it was criticized because the second half was too rough. /Chosun Ilbo


  Wang Si, a special correspondent of the Global Times, reported that the Korean Chosun Ilbo criticized the recent "unverified story of insulting China" in South Korea, saying that unverified Korean dramas can only encourage anti-Korean sentiment.


  Chen Junjie, press officer of the Korean Embassy in South China, said that he couldn’t help being angry after watching the SBS TV series Cain and Abel recently. He said: "Don’t screenwriters write works without textual research? Shanghai in the play is not so much the scenery in 2009 as the 1960s. It is unbelievable to describe a modern city like Shanghai as a backward old city. "


  More and more people point out that a thorough textual research is needed to keep the Korean Wave flowing. A careless description of Japan, China and other neighboring countries will inevitably be condemned for "distorting culture and history". Korean media are worried that the export of Korean dramas will also be frustrated.


  The Korean media quoted the Global Times report entitled "Korean TV series distorting China" in March this year, saying that the scenery of Shanghai, China in SBS TV series Cain and Abel was portrayed as a backward scene in rural China in the 1960s and 1970s. "There were even scenes in which violent gangs in China shot people in broad daylight and the police in China poured water on Su Zhixie for torture, which was totally impossible in reality."


  Chosun Ilbo said that the film crew explained that Shanghai was described as dark and horrible in order to emphasize the plot in the play. Cain and Abel is a story in which an elder brother tries to kill his younger brother for his own inheritance. The film crew said that such a scene was made to "emphasize the suffering of the protagonist wandering in do or die", but China protested: "It is a distortion to make a TV series without textual research, and no matter how clever it is, it can’t be forgiven."


  Korean historical dramas have also been criticized by China media. In SBS TV series "Yuan Gai Su Wen", there is even a "mistake" that Mao Zedong signed on the screen behind Emperor Yangdi’s seat. The Embassy of China pointed out that more Korean historical dramas were produced without interviews about the size of China Palace or the appearance of prisons. Therefore, some people even suggested that "a visiting program should be launched to organize Korean playwrights to come to China to learn about the culture and history of China".


  The article also said that South Korea’s MBC TV series "East of Eden" earned about 5 billion won by export. At first, the play attracted attention for shooting the location of Macao directly, but in the second half, streets in South Korea replaced Macao to save production costs, which caused criticism.


  In December 2008, the car chase and gun battle on the outskirts of Macao was broadcast, but its background was the winter scene in South Korea. Cui Yonghao, vice president of the Korea Cultural Industry Promotion Agency, said: "To continue to develop Korean TV dramas, we need to work hard on historical research and screen editing."


  Chosun Ilbo appealed that in order to export Korean dramas to Asia, Korean screenwriters should also change their perspective of observing Asia, instead of describing Macau as a gorgeous gambling city and Hong Kong as a dark alley, they should actively understand and explain the history and present situation of Asian neighbors.

In Chess-Game 2016, the word "chaos" in the Middle East takes the lead, and many countries are involved in chess.

  Cctv newsIn 2016, looking back at the situation in the Middle East, the word "chaos" was still at the forefront, and the war continued, and Syria and Iraq were undoubtedly the two main battlefields in this chaos.

  On these two battlefields, there are threats from extremist organizations, contests between religious factions, wrestling between neighboring countries, and the game between great powers … … The complexity of the situation makes it difficult to see it clearly for a time. This game of chess in the Middle East is getting finer and finer. Among them, on the battlefield in Syria, many parties are strangling each other and their strength is changing, showing an obvious "robbery" situation.

  Syria: "Robbery" chaos is like a big country wrestling

  The so-called "robbery" in Go means that both black and white sides surround each other’s pieces. In this situation, if the round is white, you can eat a sunspot; If the wheel is dark, you can also eat a Bai Zi, and so on, there will be no solution in the cycle. This situation is quite similar to the development of the situation in Syria this year.

  Beginning in 2016, the Syrian battlefield is still fierce. With the support of Russia, Syrian government forces gradually gained the upper hand against extremist organizations and opposition forces supported by the United States and its allies.

  In view of the increasingly serious terrorist threat, there were signs of easing between the United States and Russia on the Syrian issue. With the opportunity of sending troops to Syria, Russia successfully forced the United States to return to the negotiating table, and the United States also became loose on the issue of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s stay.

  On February 22, the United States and Russia reached an agreement on a ceasefire between the parties to the Syrian conflict. On March 14th, under the impetus of all parties, the Syrian government and the opposition held "substantive" peace talks in Geneva. But on the same day, Russian President Vladimir Putin made an unexpected statement.
 

  Russian President Vladimir PutinI believe that the Ministry of National Defense and the armed forces have generally completed the tasks assigned before, so I ordered the Ministry of National Defense to withdraw its main forces from Syria from tomorrow (March 15, 2016).

  In September 2015, Russia officially announced that it would send troops to Syria and carried out several rounds of air strikes against extremist organizations in Syria. Before Russia’s intervention, the Syrian government forces were at a disadvantage in the confrontation with the opposition armed forces and extremist armed forces supported by the West, and the Bashar regime was in jeopardy. After Russia intervened, according to Putin, the Syrian government forces "made a fundamental reversal in the fight against international terrorism". On the occasion of successive victories, Putin suddenly announced his withdrawal, which seems unreasonable, but Russia’s entry and exit on the Syrian battlefield is of great significance.

  Li Shaoxian, Dean of China Arab Research Institute of Ningxia University.Russia forced the United States and Russia to seek dialogue and cooperation through military actions. In fact, his announcement of withdrawal did not stop military operations in Syria. At the same time, he still said that the action against extremist organizations in Syria would not stop. In fact, he won himself the initiative, and he could attack and retreat.

  The secret of "robbery" lies in transformation. Although Russia has withdrawn its main forces from Syria, it has no intention of strategically withdrawing from the Middle East, and still retains a certain military strength in Syria. Russia hopes to negotiate with the United States, but if the United States refuses to negotiate or lacks sincerity, Russia’s reserved successors can continue to "rob the dispute" at any time and force the United States to deal with it.

  On August 16th, Russia made another move in the Middle East. For the first time, Russian warplanes took off from Hamadan Air Force Base in Iran to carry out air strikes against extremist organizations in Syria. This was also the first time that Russia used a third-country military base to attack extremist organizations in Syria.

  The power contrast between Russia and the United States in the Middle East has quietly changed. Earlier, Russia delivered the S-300 air defense missile system to Iran, and this cooperation between the two countries has made the United States feel like a sore throat.

  The entry of Russian military forces into Iran is also enhancing the strategic position of Iran, a Shia power, in the Middle East, which also scares Saudi Arabia, a Sunni power that is a traditional power in the Middle East and a "deadly enemy" of Iran. The combat knife that Putin waved this time not only pierced the United States, but also deeply stabbed Saudi Arabia.

  In addition to Iran, Turkey, which shares a border of more than 900 kilometers with Syria, has never withdrawn from the game of chess in the Middle East. In 2016, at the critical stage of the development of the situation in Syria, Turkey’s relations with the United States and Russia have undergone dramatic changes.

  Turkey guards the main throat of Russia going south, and it is also the only channel from the Black Sea to the Mediterranean Sea — — Bosporus Strait and Da Daniil Strait are an important link in the anti-terrorism layout of the United States in the Middle East, and they are also NATO’s eastern defense lines to contain Russia. However, the seemingly solid relationship between the United States and Turkey changed after an attempted coup in mid-July. Turkey asked the United States to extradite Gulen, a religious figure suspected of inciting a coup, but it was rejected by the United States, and the relationship between Turkey and the United States gradually faded.

  At the same time, Turkey and Russia are rapidly approaching. In November 2015, a Russian Su -24 fighter plane was shot down by Turkey on the Turkish-Syrian border, and the relationship between the two countries deteriorated rapidly and once fell to freezing point. In June this year, Turkish President Erdogan sent a letter to Putin, apologizing for shooting down the fighter plane before. Subsequently, the relationship between the two sides quickly warmed up.

  Although Karlov, the Russian ambassador to Turkey, was assassinated on December 19th in full view of the public, this shocking event did not "reverse" the warming Russian-Turkish relations, but instead urged the two countries to "stand together" more closely. In the complicated chess game in the Middle East, Russia and Turkey need each other and borrow from each other, which is the fundamental reason for the two countries to eliminate interference and get close quickly.

  Turkey and the United States have been at odds from close allies, but they have been talking with Russia from a distance, which is intriguing. On a black-and-white disk, the color of Turkey becomes bright or dark.

  On August 24th, in the border area between Syria and Turkey, an elite Turkish army crossed the border into Syria in a high profile. Turkey declared that the move was aimed at cracking down on extremist organizations, but it implied a "dark chess". Just after Turkey sent troops to Syria, the TV station Russia Today simulated and formed a "Syria Crisis Chat Group", which reflected the most realistic interest entanglement among Turkey, the United States and Russia in the form of simulated dialogue.

  Russia:Should we try diplomatic means to solve the problem?

  US Vice President Biden:We supported the actions of the Turkish army, and we also dispatched fighter planes to cover it.

  Turkey:By the way, we also fight against Kurdish armed forces.

  Kurdish armed forces:America, help! Aren’t we allies?

  United States:This is a complicated negotiation process. Please step back first.

  This huge chessboard in the Middle East is never as simple as the game between Sunspots and Bai Zi, and there are never only two players in the Middle East, the United States and Russia. Faced with the opportunity of restructuring the Middle East, regional powers are competing in succession, and the entanglement of interests also makes this chess game more and more complicated. In the face of multi-party wrestling, the United States and Russia have to pause here before they can continue the game.

  Syrian battlefield: the conflict between the United States and Russia intensified behind the middle-set fight against Aleppo

  In the autumn of 2016, the layout of all parties in the Middle East has taken shape, and the chess game in Syria has also entered the middle stage.

  On September 10, the United States and Russia reached an agreement on the cessation of hostilities between the Syrian parties again, but the agreement soon became a dead letter. The United States and Russia accused each other of breaking the agreement, and the contradictions between the two sides intensified again.

  It is not surprising that the ceasefire failed and the agreement was destroyed. In the face of the practical interests of the Middle East, Russia and the United States obviously prefer "fighting".

  In October, the fighting in many places in Syria, especially in Aleppo, a major town in the north, rose sharply.

  The war in the past four years has ravaged this beautiful ancient city, which was built in the 6th century BC and is considered as one of the oldest settlements in human history.

  However, Aleppo, which is in ruins, is a "battleground for military strategists" — — Aleppo is the economic center and the second largest city in Syria before the war. It is located in the west of Syria, about 45 kilometers away from the Syrian-Turkish border, where Syrian government forces, Syrian opposition armed forces, Syrian Kurdish armed forces and extremist organizations are intertwined.

  The competition between Syrian government forces and the opposition in Aleppo is becoming increasingly fierce. In a series of siege and anti-siege tug-of-war, the Syrian government forces gradually gained the upper hand, besieged the opposition forces in the eastern part of Aleppo and continuously reduced their sphere of influence.

  Near the end of the year, the Syrian government forces made significant progress. On December 22nd, the Syrian military announced that it had completely recovered Aleppo. After four years of Aleppo campaign, Bashar regime has become more active and has more obvious advantages in the domestic battlefield.

  In chess, there is another trick called "pressing", which, as the name implies, is to press the opponent’s chess pieces at a low position, so as to gain momentum and stand out for yourself.

  In October, Russia announced the deployment of the S-300 air defense missile system in Syria. On November 15th, Russia’s only active aircraft carrier, Kuznetsov, took all carrier-based aircraft and other weapons and equipment to the Mediterranean Sea to join the campaign against extremist organizations in Syria. With the cooperation of Russia, the Syrian government forces have won successively.

  In the face of Russia’s "continuous pressure" situation, the United States responded hastily and opened up another battlefield — — Raqqa, the so-called "capital" of extremist organizations.

  Raqqa is located in northern Syria, 160 kilometers away from Aleppo. Raqqa province, where it is located, borders Turkey and has an important strategic position. Raqqa is the main hiding place of extremist organizations, and it has fallen into a tight encirclement and is like an island.

  The United States expected to open up the battlefield in Raqqa and relieve the pressure of Syrian rebels trapped in Raqqa, but the situation did not develop as expected by the United States. The main force to attack Raqqa is the Syrian Democratic Army led by Syrian Kurdish armed forces. Although Kurdish armed forces are supported by the United States, they have always been a thorn in Turkey’s side, and the United States is caught between the two.

  At present, the progress of Raqqa recovery war tends to be slow. Syria’s "Motherland" newspaper believes that the "half-hearted" military action of the United States in Syria is not to eradicate extremist forces, but to attempt to aggravate the chaos by proxy and accelerate the division of Syria. The recovery of Raqqa is nothing more than a propaganda war.

  Under the tearing of all parties, the danger of "fragmentation" in Syria is growing. The situation in Syria, chess to the middle, is as complicated as ending.

  Similar to Syria, another war in Mosul, a city in northern Iraq, is also fierce and intertwined. But in contrast, the picture of Mosul campaign is clearer than that of Syria. In the chess game on the battlefield in Iraq, the start of 2016 is quite clear. Compared with the decline of the Iraqi army in the face of extremist organizations two years ago, in 2016, the multi-party encirclement and suppression of extremist organizations continued to advance. It is imperative to recover Mosul.

  Moreover, at present, the contradictions among various parties in Iraq are prominent, the people’s voice for reform is rising, and the government urgently needs a victory to win more trust.

  Iraq: Mosul recovery war starts, and the undercurrent of the United States and Russia surges.

  In the early morning of October 17th, local time, the campaign codenamed "Here We Come, Nineveh" was held in the base camp of extremist organizations in Iraq — — It officially started near Mosul. For more than two months, the Iraqi Joint Action Force has been advancing from the east, south and north, recovering many villages and entering Mosul from the east. It is worth mentioning that in the battle of Mosul, the United States personally took the lead, the US military directly participated in air strikes, and heavy vehicles and helicopter gunships also appeared many times.

  The Obama administration’s term of office is coming to an end, and Mosul has also become the anti-terrorism legacy that this US government hopes to leave behind.

  In the Middle East chess game in the United States, the battle of Mosul has the function of "killing two birds with one stone". The campaign to recover Mosul mainly started from the east, north and south, leaving only a gap in the west.

  Russia’s "Independent" believes that this move is to "drive" extremist organizations to Syria, intensify the situation in Syria and weaken the strength of the Syrian government. Public opinion believes that this is also the hope of the United States to compete with Russia for the right to speak in the Middle East.

  On the battlefield in Iraq, the United States has a clear layout, but it is not easy to play this chess game. As early as before the Battle of Mosul, Turkey, Iraq, Kurds and others began to quarrel over the control of Mosul, hoping to fill the power vacuum left by the defeat of extremist organizations, which also made the original complicated situation more confusing.

  Turkey’s "uninvited arrival" did not surprise the outside world. Previously, although the Iraqi government repeatedly reiterated its opposition to Turkey’s cross-border entry into Iraq, Turkey sent troops to the Turkish-Iraqi border and stationed troops near Mosul.

  Why does Turkey have to send troops? Like Turkey’s purpose in sending troops to Syria, its "heart knot" is still Kurds.

  In addition to the Kurds, the infiltration of Iranian forces is another worry of Turkey. Although Iran claims that it was not directly involved in the Mosul war, its influence on the Shiite-led Iraqi government cannot be underestimated.

  Turkey joined forces with Saudi Arabia, Iran’s sworn enemy, to stop the rapid growth of Iranian Shiite forces on the battlefield in Iraq.

  The war is still going on, and the outcome has not yet been determined, but there is no doubt that all forces have their own plans for the future of Mosul and have begun to exert their strength. It is hard to predict who will go in and who will go out.

  2017 is coming, and the United States, Russia and other regional powers, which have played fiercely in the Middle East chess game for one year, are gradually becoming clear about the political division in the Middle East as the parties settle down on the chessboard in the Middle East, but how to move the following chess path still makes all parties quite headache.

  When will the "official son" stage come to the United States and Russia or welcome the new year?

  In the face of the current chess game in the Middle East, what worries Russia most is that it is stuck in the quagmire of the Syrian war.

  However, Russia has never been absent from the Middle East crisis. Whether it is the veto vote on the Syrian crisis resolution in the Security Council, the mediation behind the ceasefire agreement, or the military operations still being carried out with the Syrian government forces, Russia has always shown the world its influence in the Middle East.

  The term of the Obama administration in the United States is coming to an end. In 2017, what changes will happen to the United States in the Middle East chess game depends on the choice of President-elect Trump. Trump once expressed his position on the situation in the Middle East.

  US President-elect TrumpWe spent $6 trillion in the Middle East, which is enough for the United States to rebuild twice, but look at our roads, bridges and tunnel airports. If I represent some kind of denial, it is a denial of the long-term political situation in the United States.

  Since western scholars began to call this land "Middle East", it has always been the battlefield of the game between big countries. The sharp change in the pattern of the Middle East in 2016 reflects the evolution of the world trend. America’s strategic eastward shift is bound to limit and reduce its investment in the Middle East. In order to reduce investment and maintain its dominant position, the United States’ Middle East policy is facing great confusion and entanglement, and many changes in the Middle East are rooted in this.

  In the new round of "competition" in the Middle East, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Iran and other regional powers are undoubtedly the protagonists standing at the front desk.

  However, these big countries, which are either intransigent or strange bedfellows, have their own strengths and weaknesses, and no one can completely dominate the regional situation. In the words of John Mill, an expert on Middle East issues at the Jamestown Foundation in the United States, "In the Middle East, there are always people who think of themselves as brilliant players with fire, because the powder keg here is so dry that even a spark may cause a violent explosion, and they will regret it when they are bombed ‘ Why should I strike that match ’ 。”

  It is difficult to rebuild political order, and the chaos in the Middle East may continue.

  In 2016, the situation in the Middle East has undergone historic changes: Islamic extremist forces represented by extremist organizations have sprung up in the Middle East, Iraq and Syria have actually become fragmented, Egypt has lost its position as the leader of the Arab world and was replaced by Saudi Arabia and Turkey, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has been marginalized, and Iran has risen rapidly. The United States can’t stop in the Middle East, and Russia has returned to the Middle East strongly. The chaos in the Middle East remains the same, but the pattern has changed greatly.

  Dominique, special adviser of the French Institute of International Relations? Moisi pointed out that "the Middle East will not easily overcome the profound differences in the region. It is disintegrating under our eyes. " It is difficult to restore the original order and rebuild the new political structure. I am afraid that the chaos in the Middle East will be long-term and complicated.

A must-see for buying iPhone7. Here’s a strategy worth 3,600 yuan.

  Time flies. In a blink of an eye, most of the time has passed in 2016, and the long-awaited Apple conference will be held soon (September 7, US time, 1 am on September 8, Beijing time). At this juncture, are many small partners already holding back their hearts bought in buy buy, but what should they do with those they have just bought for less than a year? I believe that most people will choose to sell unless they have special friends (or small partners who intend to leave them for their families).

Who is the most cost-effective seller? How much is the iPhone in the eyes of friends?

  Who sells it and how to sell it has become a problem again. The author takes a 64GB rose gold version of the Bank of China (A1700) as an example. In terms of detailed conditions, we choose the machines that are within one month of the warranty period or expired, the bezel backboard is intact, the screen is normal without scratches, and everything is normal. How much are these worth among friends?

For example, users can already trade in old ones online, buy new ones and sell old ones without leaving home. The author chose JD.COM Mall, Suning.cn and No.1 Store as the comparison platforms.

Jingdong Mall

  In JD.COM, we can see that the name of the trade-in service is "JD.COM Enterprise Recycling", which is divided into five or more enterprises recycling and five or less enterprises recycling and personal recycling. According to our previous conditions, the iPhone is valued at 2,885 yuan in JD.COM Mall (at present, the price of the new 64GB version of S in JD.COM Mall is 4,999 yuan), and consumers can choose to exchange the corresponding amount of JD.COM E-card or use Jingdong wallet to collect money.

Shop no. 1

  In Store No.1, we evaluated it again with the same option, and the displayed recycling quotation is also 2885 yuan (at present, the price of the new 64GB version of iPhone 6s in Store No.1 is 4899 yuan), but consumers can choose the account of Store No.1 for rebate (they can buy self-operated products of Store No.1), and if users choose 3C products to offset the coupons, they can get a slightly higher price of 2940 yuan, but the embodiment of recycling money is not supported in Store No.1..

  According to the author’s design, the recycling price of this iPhone 6s in Suning.cn has reached 3080 yuan (at present, the price of the new 64GB version of iPhone 6s in No.1 Store is 4988 yuan), and users can withdraw cash through Suning Yifubao, or buy new products in all Suning Appliance, Tesco and Red Kids stores in Suning.cn and the whole country.

  Judging from the situation of e-commerce platform, users can not only choose to buy upcoming or other brands after selling their old iPhone, but also withdraw cash if they are idle, which is also very convenient.


Manufacturer’s recycling

  In fact, many mobile phone manufacturers are launching trade-in services, such as Huawei, Meizu and LeTV, and the author chose these three brands for the price comparison of iPhone in the eyes of mobile phone manufacturers.

Huawei

  In Huawei Vmall Mall, the recycling price of this iPhone 6s is 3,193 yuan, which is relatively high. However, it is more appropriate to choose recycling if you intend to abandon the iPhone and put it into Huawei’s arms, because the recycling money of Huawei Vmall Mall is only in the form of vouchers and can only be purchased in the mall.

  Meizu’s trade-in is called "mCycle", and the recycling price of this iPhone is 2820 yuan, including the additional subsidy of Meizu in 120 yuan. Of course, just like Huawei, it also offers coupons, and only users can buy products from Meizu official website.

  Compared with the other two mobile phone manufacturers, LeTV’s recycling price is relatively high, which can reach 3,745 yuan under the same situation, in which the cash combination of 500 yuan LeTV Mall Universal Voucher+3,245 yuan is the highest among the recycling prices introduced by the author at present, and users can also sell the 500 yuan vouchers to needy friends at low prices, so that they can get more cash.

  Judging from the prices of the three mobile phone manufacturers selected by the author for iPhone recycling, the price of LeTV is the most competitive, even if consumers intend to change to other brands after selling their old iPhones.


Professional recycling website

  The author selected three recycling websites: Love Recycling, Music Recycling and Quick Recycling. In terms of price, the maximum difference between the three companies is 858 yuan, which shows how important it is to choose the right platform.

Le recovery

  In the evaluation, Le Recycle gave a quotation of 2800 yuan, which is the lowest compared with the ones mentioned by the author before.

Love recycling

  The price of the second love recycling store is 3,000 yuan (previously, JD.COM Mall and No.1 Store we introduced used love recycling to provide services), and the evaluation of love recycling on its own website is 100 yuan higher than that of the e-commerce platform.

Quick recovery

Recycling price (picture quoted from quick recycling)

  In this comparison, the highest recycling price is quick recycling, and the evaluated price can reach 3658 yuan (excluding the combined price of LeTV coupons and cash). It can be said that if you choose the right platform, you can sell several hundred yuan more.


Write it at the end

  In addition to the upcoming release, September itself is a small peak of machine replacement. For many friends, how to keep the old iPhone in their hands at the maximum value has always been valued by the majority of users. Based on the author’s comparison today, if you believe in this quick recycling, you might as well sell your iPhone 6s at the highest evaluation price of 3658 yuan and wait for a new one. If you have doubts, you can also sell it to a more reliable LeTV. No matter what brand you plan to change next, the prices given by these two companies are still very cost-effective. If you still know more expensive recycling channels, let’s discuss and exchange them together.

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.

History of vehicle models:

Speaking of Teana, it is also a car with a long history. Since the earliest demeanor series entered the China market, it has been among the top sellers of imported cars, and has been a heavyweight player in the mid-level car market for many years since it was put into production by Oriental Nissan. Its seat comfort and NVH level in the car have always been unique in the same level.

The seventh-generation TEANA ALTIMA, which went on the market today, is based on the brand-new overseas American model, and its English name is ALTIMA, which is the same as the American model. The new car has a comprehensive innovation and improvement in appearance and interior design, technology configuration and power.

New car information:

ALTIMA, the seventh generation of Teana, must be young at first sight, and its design is crisp and neat, which is much more capable than the current "round and fleshy head". It is easy to win the favor of most people, but it will not make you feel "subversive".

The second feeling of seeing the seventh-generation Tianzhu ALTIMA is that it is no stranger. The V-shaped wide chrome trim can also be seen on other Nissan models. The design of Nissan V-Motion 2.0 has put a lot of effort into the word "sports", and on the basis of maintaining the family-style design, it has added elements that young people like.

Whether it’s the air intake grille, V-shaped chrome trim or the details of headlights, we can find them in other models, such as Sima and Bluebird. The main vision of the front of the seventh-generation Teana ALTIMA has brought a youthful feeling to the whole vehicle because of the strengthening treatment of the V-shaped trim.

Most new cars have become longer, wider and lower in size. This kind of sports processing that affects visual effects through size has gradually become a trend. Compared with the current models, the seventh-generation Tianzhu ALTIMA has increased its length and width by 10mm and 20mm respectively, reduced its height by 43mm and increased its wheelbase by 50 mm.

The change in size has brought many benefits to this heavy model. The first is that it looks much more dynamic and more charming than the current model. Secondly, the space in the back row has been strengthened; The third is the upgrade of driving control performance, which has the taste of "sports car".

The C-pillar part is a highlight of the whole side design. The designer added black decorative strips to make it look more layered and strengthen the Coupe style. The design of the C-pillar part is an important part of the side rejuvenation.

In addition to the details of the C-pillar, the roof is also blackened, which is a rare detail treatment on other new cars, which makes the seventh-generation Tianzhu ALTIMA look full of sports from above.

The shape of the taillights at the rear enhances the sense of lateral stretching. From the back, the seventh-generation Tianzhu ALTIMA has a stronger sense of "broadness", and the fog lights on both sides of the rear bumper are also obviously lateral, which further deepens this feeling.

Exercise and comfort do not contradict each other; youth and texture go hand in hand again. ※

The shape of the interior is also different according to the configuration. The center console trim of the 2.0T top model is wood-like stripes, while the other models are all made of metallic trim, with two colors of all-black interior and beige interior.

The current Teana model is famous for its home and comfort in the interior. This atmosphere has been continued on the seventh generation Teana ALTIMA. The new style is warm and simple, and there is no unusual style simply because of sports.

The fabrics that can be touched in the seventh-generation Teana ALTIMA car have affinity. In the agitation of pursuing "youth and sports" in the market, Teana still insists on the characteristics of Nissan brand. After all, this car has the most opportunities to serve the family.

The dashboard of the seventh-generation Teana ALTIMA still adopts the traditional "mechanical+display" solution, and the middle display is rich in displayable information, which can be adjusted by the buttons on the left side of the steering wheel.

The lathe system has its own features and advantages, and there is room for improvement. ※

The seventh generation of Teana ALTIMA, like Camry and Accord, adopts the relatively traditional touch screen+physical knobs/buttons, which is more practical and safe than pure touch screen.

Compared with Camry and Accord, ALTIMA, the seventh generation of Teana, takes better care of the usage habits in the era of mobile Internet, supports online navigation (Gaode car version), online music (Kuwo music, Himalayan FM), and also provides intelligent voice recognition function, which is better among the three models.

In this brand-new model, we can also see the existence of classic elements everywhere, such as the shape of window buttons and the two-stage panoramic sunroof on the old Duke model.

The seats are super comfortable, and the reputation of "big mobile sofa" remains the same. ※

Many Nissan seats are very comfortable, soft and thick, which is very popular with family users. In this generation of Scorpio, the seat has not been hardened because of the so-called sports, and the reputation of "mobile big sofa" still belongs to it.

※ The interior of ※2.0T top model is obviously better than that of other configurations.

After the interior experience of top matching and other configurations, we found that the top matching models are not only different in shape, but also better in seat shape, seat details and fabric comfort.

Is it more weighty to talk about sports with 2.0T? ※?

After Camry went public, some people said that it didn’t have 2.0T, and after Accord went public, some people said that it was only 1.5T For the common "picky" people on these networks, the 7 th generation Teana ALTIMA’s 2.0T should satisfy them, and this 2.0T is very unique in technology.

This "VC-TURBO" uses the variable compression ratio technology, which is the first mass-produced variable compression ratio engine in the world. Through the harmonic drive device, it drives the adjustable lever-crankshaft structure, and then adjusts the movement height of the lower end of the piston connecting rod, realizing the stepless change of compression ratio from 14:1 to 8:1. The new engine also reduces the vibration and internal wear of the cylinder through technical improvement.

Variable compression ratio technology can make the engine work at high compression ratio when cruising at a constant speed needs to reduce fuel consumption. When it is necessary to speed up quickly, the engine can reduce the compression ratio to provide the best power output.

This 2.0T engine has obvious advantages in technical parameters, and it is also used in QX50 in Britain and finidi, but the parameters are slightly different.

Under different working conditions, different opening depths of the throttle and different speeds, the compression ratio can be adjusted steplessly to achieve the best power and economy, and this change can be viewed at any time on the dashboard.

Competitors:

In the mid-level car market, the competitors of ALTIMA, the seventh generation of Teana, are naturally the "old enemies" all the time. Whether it is the old Japanese rivals Accord and Camry, the German Magotan and Passat, or the American Regal and LaCrosse, Teana after the new generation can be said to have the product strength that does not lose any rivals.

  Another young Hua Dan Zhao Liying, although she is not born after 1995, her popularity seems overwhelming recently. Speaking of her experience, it can be called bumpy. After running for nearly 7 years, it was not until "Hua Qiangu" that it really became popular. In the recent hit drama "Old Nine Doors", Zhao Liying played "Zhang Dafu" William Chan, and started the "Kai Yue Couple" mode. Yin Xinyue, who didn’t appear until after 8 episodes of "Hidden", set a new viewing record for weekly dramas in 2016 as soon as she appeared, and she also successfully sat on the throne of viewing queen.

  Another post-95 Hua Dan Nana Ou-yang, who made great efforts in the film and television industry, is also full of black physique. At the age of 12, he held a solo concert, and at the age of 13, he was admitted to the world’s top music school. After studying for two years, the real Bai Fumei dropped out of school and went into the entertainment circle, which in itself caused an uproar. Recently, the youth idol drama "Yes! When Mr. Shang started broadcasting, Nana Ou-yang’s Marisol-style acting continued to attract everyone to vomit wildly, saying, "I’m embarrassed after watching it.". In the play, Nana Ou-yang plays Xiaokui Lu’s golden sentence, "People can stand up if they fall, and the camera can be repaired if it breaks down!"! Xiaokui Lu, come on. " Jean Cheney Chen’s Champagne Burning is also very speechless.

  The "Five Beauties" in the just-hit urban drama Ode to Joy has successfully captured the hearts of a large number of fans, and Andy, who debuted as a child star, has once again become a topic. Compared with its well-known role of "light snow", Andy’s face as an adult is a little more feminine, and many netizens also questioned that her face became sharper and smaller. Andy was once caught in the "plastic surgery doubt cloud". However, she also responded on Weibo that she didn’t have plastic surgery, but she grew up.
