# A trip driven by blockbuster repertoire

Traveling, who you play with and what, may be more important than where you are. Anaya and its churches, as the most frequently seen “middle-class holiday resorts” in the circle of friends last year, to be honest, it is aesthetically tiring. But this year’s small holiday, Anaya, with the double blessing of the seaside and the theater festival, was once again put on the travel itinerary by many people.
On March 27th, World Theatre Day, Anaya held a press conference in Beijing and announced that it would hold the first Anaya Theatre Festival in June. Director Meng Jinghui, actor Zhang Ziyi, actor & director Chen Minghao jointly serve as the staffing of the artistic director, and is there any appeal to the “half sea, half drama” drama festival slogan? It was sold out on the first day of ticketing. It must have given the answer to this question.
Screened during the festival “Madman’s Diary”, “White Deer Plain”, “Inspector’s Visit”, “Romeo and Juliet by the Sea”, “Song of the Sad Cafe” The five blockbuster plays are undoubtedly the biggest reason for drama lovers to come here. One of the most concerned is the world premiere of “Madman’s Diary” at the Anaya Theatre Festival: adapted from Lu Xun’s novel of the same name, directed by the European theater giant Christian Lupa, with the participation of famous actors such as Wang Xuebing and Mei Ting. As the opening drama of the festival, the evaluation on the night of the premiere of “Madman’s Diary” showed a state of polarization. But regardless of whether they like the play or not, the audience has to admit that the stage tension and rhythm presented by this play are unprecedented shocking.

This is undoubtedly a very unique experience for young people who are used to traveling from noon. However, according to the feedback from many live audiences, many people have miscalculated the seaside temperature in the northern summer night, and the performance of the repertoire is larger than the content, and the experience is greatly reduced.

# Get a different kind of accommodation experience in the drama house

Compared with the drama itself, the drama house has lost the obscurity and solemnity of art, and has more free and unique happy experiences. 13 guests from various artistic fields and architect Liang Chen built 13 houses named after classic dramas by the sea. In “Macbeth” by Chen Jiaying, the porch and stairs are impervious to light, and the guest rooms are also dim. You must reach the roof platform to have a glimpse of sky. The “Opinions on the Life of Two Dogs” as understood by Mars Radio is mapped to an energy The sounding house is like sound; the “Ghost Sonata” in Li Yundi’s mind is “I can’t see the keys, but you can only see my hands”… When all the abstract elements contained in the drama are embodied by the seaside cottage Formal presentation, is it the one you imagined? For Anaya drama, no answer is needed. Everything is pioneering, everything is experimental. But for the tourists who successfully registered in the App and gotten to live in the house by drawing lots. When Venus, Zhang Ziyi, Lao Lang, Mei Ting and others analyzed the classic dramas such as “Salome”, “Sunrise”, “Onegin”, and “A Streetcar Named Desire”, it became possible to touch, watch and even Living is indeed an experience worth the fare. What’s happier than this kind of accommodation experience is that in such a house, you will meet friends who have never met but who also love drama.

#Migratory Bird 300 and drama reading make travel worth remembering

The “Migratory Bird 300” project and drama reading, which were launched at the same time as the above repertoire, are a very special experience for many drama lovers. The Migratory Bird 300 Project has assembled 300 artists and performed large-scale creations on site in Anaya for 12 days. Ge Yulu, who once changed the road in Beijing’s Apple community into his own name, also appeared in it. The unique installation art and performances throughout the camp gave the audience and tourists a fantasy wandering about “creation”. Image source: Wilderness Meteorological Observatory In addition to watching, this drama festival also allows fans to “deeply participate” in it. In the special environmental drama reading unit, 14 special spaces of different shapes in Anaya were selected, allowing 10 directors to complete the script reading together with the audience, watching the performance at close range, and feeling the dramatic collision and shock. Such an experimental drama festival is full of ambitions, and it is obvious that Anaya will return to the top three destinations in the country. For theater lovers, this is a cordial reunion place. For audiences and tourists outside there, Anaya and the art it carries are once again separated from other domestic purposes. In such a feast in the name of art, what Anaya needs to do may be to focus on the actual experience beyond the spirit. After all, a performance with frequent mistakes can be buffered by other wonderful dramas, and the fact that it is impossible to get a car to go home outside the scenic area or being too crowded to produce quarrels will really make the small group of art hobbies that have the courage to travel. The readers were agitated. Overall, Anaya’s did once again conquer everyone who came to travel with something other than tourism

“The great progress of science comes from brand new and bold imagination.”-Dewey

Since modern times, with the rapid development of science and technology, many “illusions” that existed in the past have become reality. Mankind has realized the dream of flying in the sky and building a city under the sea, and can also meet people thousands of miles away across space. Countless people are shocked by the power of technology. Some people have put forward bolder ideas-through the ages, many people have hoped that they can “live forever”, so can this long-cherished wish be realized with the power of science and technology? A few years ago, a richest man in the United States frozen himself for 50 years and planned to resurrect him in 2017. What is his situation now?
Liquid Nitrogen Freezing Pictures

1. The richest man in the United States, James Bedford

James Bedford was originally a physicist in a well-known American university. In addition, he was also a successful businessman. With his super economic acumen, he became the richest man in the United States 54 years ago. But as he got older, James’ physical condition became weaker, and unfortunately he later contracted kidney cancer. Regardless of whether it was then or now, cancer is almost completely equivalent to a terminal illness, and the chance of recovery is extremely small. After a long period of treatment, James’ condition still hasn’t improved, but he doesn’t want to succumb to fate, because he is still very nostalgic for this colorful world.

2. Cryonics technology

At this time, Robert Ettinger, who has been working on “cryonics”, approached James Bedford. He said that he could use freezing technology to freeze James’ body unharmed and wait until the future When technology develops to cure cancer, let him thaw and “resurrect”. But this technology requires a lot of money and manpower, so Robert hopes that James, who has strong assets, can participate in this experiment and become the first person in the world to be artificially refrigerated.

Robert Ettinger At first, James was skeptical of what Robert said. As a scientist, he understood that freezing a human body is an extremely complicated and difficult task, and even if he can be successfully “resurrected” in the future, he may not be able to adapt to future life. There are also problems with this technology in terms of human relations and ethics. But as James’ illness became more and more serious, he agreed to Robert’s approach in order to have “a ray of life” when the deadline was approaching.

3. Plans to resurrect in 2017

After a rigorous plan, James put out a large sum of money, and plans to resurrect in 2017. When everything was ready, James finally closed his eyes in peace. At the moment he just passed away, Robert led his team to get busy. They replaced the blood in James’ body with a cryoprotectant to ensure that the blood crystals after freezing would not pierce the cells. After a series of complicated operations, James’ body was placed in a special refrigeration facility care center. Time flies, and 50 years later, it is the time for James to “resurrect”. But the result is obvious, today’s medical technology has not broken the problem of curing cancer, and how to resurrect the “frozen man” is still an unsolved mystery.

4. How is it now?

Although James failed to realize his last wish to be resurrected in 2017, his family said that the property left by James was enough to support the cost of the subsequent freezing, so they will continue to spend a lot of money to preserve James’s body and make him Continue to freeze until the day when science and technology are really developed to cure cancer and resurrect the “frozen man”. Today, James is still “sleeping” in the refrigeration facility care center, and there are hundreds of people waiting for the day of “resurrection”. Cryonics Many people find it very novel after hearing the story of James Bedford. It is true that “health and longevity” is a beautiful vision for each of us, but nowadays, using cryonics technology to wait for the “resurrection” day is more like Fantastic Nights. For ordinary people, the real secret of health and longevity lies in a good attitude and regular life. Instead of pursuing the “imagination” that can be realized when you don’t know when, it’s better to live every day steadily. What do you think What?

Every day, hundreds of vloggers and fans come to the village to film and take pictures with the emerging internet phenomenon. For streamers, Cheng is an abundant “view mine”. Many people even stationed themselves in the village to broadcast day and night. The village with a population of less than 1,500 people sometimes welcomes up to 1,000 streamers. Cheng is famous on Chinese social media for a bowl of noodles priced at 3 yuan. Live stream army Due to the large number of visitors, Cheng could not even go to the market as usual or leisurely go up the mountain to walk like before. There were too many people to find, he had to move the noodle shop to sell it right at the gate of his house. Cheng’s house is built on the mountain, with only one main room and two small rooms on the side. Near noon, the streamer and the audience crowded outside the gate with cameras and phones held. Cheng is tucked in the middle with a kneading table, the scene is like a Roman arena. “Noodle brother, say a few words”, “Look here and say hello to the audience”, the vlogger’s invitations kept ringing. In the crowd, live streamers do all sorts of things like dancing, singing, arguing to get the attention of their audience. Since becoming famous, Cheng has mostly just stood at the gate making noodles or rested in the house. His mother set up a beverage stand outside the gate to sell to guests who came to see. Facing the curious crowd at her door, she appeared calm. However, she still couldn’t understand why her ordinary second son was so attractive. The mother also said that she did not expect this age to be able to earn money thanks to the popularity of the child. The live stream army surrounded Cheng’s house day and night, following him while he was walking in the mountains. Thanks to the popularity of the “noodle brother”, people in the village also have more jobs. Dozens of food stalls were set up near his house. Chen’s village is a backward agricultural area, with only a small asphalt road leading to the village. Previously, this road did not have much traffic, sometimes there were cars passing by without stopping. To create a good image, Cheng’s village repaired the road through the night, in cooperation with the telecommunications company to install a high-speed network. Many villagers gave up farming, turned to selling food, opened inns, some imitated vloggers and went live in hopes of making money from it. From 10am to midnight, thousands of people come and go from the village. There are many people who drive cars for 3 hours from Xuzhou, Jiangsu come here just to eat a bowl of 3 yuan noodles. Some people from Inner Mongolia came here just to take pictures with Cheng. Some people bring their children here so that the children can be inspired by the “noodle brother”. Liaocheng, who lives 390 km from Cheng’s village, uses the word “pilgrimage” to describe his journey to meet the “noodle brother”. Liaocheng said that like many others, he sees Cheng as a star. Talking about her popularity, Cheng expressed it was a coincidence, like a dream. After talking for a few sentences, he scratched his head again and smiled shyly. Cheng is tired of having to receive many curious people to film and take pictures. Cheng’s life is turned upside down. Many people scrutinize, probe and disturb his family. Some people deliberately broke bricks in the wall to look into the yard, at night, there were people who took beer bottles and rotten vegetables and threw them into the house. Cheng looked much thinner, his skin dark and the deep wrinkles at the corners of his eyes made him look older than his years. Since becoming famous, he has not taken a day off. During the past 2 days, he had a cold, his body was more emaciated. At 15:00, it was pouring rain, Cheng had finished the last dough and was about to stop selling. He looked tired, his eyes lost. He signaled to the spectators and quickly went inside, leaving his relatives to clean up the tools.

The appearance of the “mysterious man” once again brought Gree Electric into the eyes of investors.

After Gree Electric announced on the evening of May 26 to buy back shares for 7.5 billion to 15 billion yuan, on June 2, 8 and 10, there were mysterious buyers through Beijing Gaohua Securities’ Beijing Financial Street Securities business. The Ministry bought 4.16 billion shares of Gree Electric Appliances. Who on earth is sweeping goods so fiercely? How will this affect Gree’s stock price?

The mysterious man bought 4.16 billion in three days

Inquiry of Gree Electric’s bulk transaction records found that on June 2, June 8, and June 10, Gree Electric discovered several large-scale transactions. Moreover, the sellers are all institutional seats, and the buyers are all from a sales department. Such a large transaction comes from the same business department, and the market speculates that the buyer is likely to be the same person or organization.

Specifically, on June 2, Beijing Gaohua Securities Beijing Financial Street Securities Business Department bought 2.73 million shares, amounting to about 153 million yuan, and the transaction price was 56.05 yuan; on June 8, the business department bought 21.435 million shares , The amount was about 1.184 billion yuan, and the transaction price was 55.23 yuan; on June 10, the business department bought 51.242 million shares again, the amount was about 2.819 billion yuan, and the transaction price was 55.01 yuan. In other words, the securities business department of Beijing Gaohua Securities Beijing Financial Street bought nearly 4.16 billion yuan in total during these three days.

Judging from these three transactions, the size of single-day purchases has increased rapidly. From the initial 153 million yuan to the final more than 2.8 billion yuan.

Gree Electric’s stock price has fallen almost continuously recently. In the last 12 trading days, except for 3 days where it closed at a flat price, all the other 9 trading days fell.

Judging from the transaction amount of 4.16 billion yuan, it is likely that it has also set a record for Gree Electric’s large transaction amount. Judging from the record of block transactions since 2014 that the exchange can query, this transaction amount is the highest.

Who is buying?

The timing of this large transaction also happened just after Gree Electric announced the repurchase. On the evening of May 26, Gree Electric announced that it plans to repurchase shares at a price of 7.5 billion to 15 billion yuan, and the repurchase price will not exceed 70 yuan per share.

On the evening of May 31, Gree also announced the progress of the repurchase. As of May 31, 2021, the company’s third phase of the repurchase plan has repurchased 490,700 shares through centralized bidding, with the highest transaction price of 56.11 yuan/ The lowest transaction price is 55.89 yuan/share, and the total payment amount is 27.458 million yuan (excluding transaction costs).

So who is buying this big deal? Judging from the current information, there is a lot of speculation in the market. For example, some investors said that this buying method is very similar to Feng Liu’s style; some investors believe that it may be Fang Fenglei behind Hopu Capital who is optimistic about Gree Electric Appliances and continues to deploy.

According to the data, in Gree Electric’s announcement of a 15% equity transfer of more than 40 billion yuan in 2019, the largest bidders include Zhuhai Mingjun Partnership (Limited Partnership) and Gewuhoude Equity Investment (Zhuhai) Partnership A consortium formed by a company (limited partnership) and GENESIS FINANCIAL IVESTMENT COMOPANY LIMITED. Behind Zhuhai Mingjun is Hillhouse’s Zhang Lei, and behind Gewuhoude’s equity investment is Fang Fenglei of Hopu Investment.

In the end Zhang Lei won the competition. According to Gree Electric’s announcement in December 2019, it was finally agreed that Zhuhai Mingjun would acquire 15% of Gree’s total equity held by Gree Group at a price of 46.17 yuan per share, with a total transfer price of 41.662 billion yuan.

Since the block trade since June 2 was carried out through the Beijing Sales Department of Beijing Gaohua Securities, according to the information from Tianyan, Fang Fenglei is both the founder of Hopu Investment and the chairman of Beijing Gaohua Securities Co., Ltd. Therefore, some investors think that it may be that the company behind Fang Fenglei is buying through the Gaohua Securities business department because it continues to be optimistic about Gree Electric.

How will Gree Electric’s share price go?

Since 2019, Gree Electric’s stock price has fallen into a stalemate, and the stock price has continued to fluctuate widely at high levels. When many white horse stocks are advancing, Gree seems to have fallen behind. Especially compared with Midea Group, Gree’s share price performance is significantly weaker.

Will the mysterious buyer’s massive purchase of Gree Electric Appliances stimulate the stock price to rise? Although the buyer is very mysterious, and it is still possible to continue to buy Gree Electric. But after all, it is a large-scale transaction, and it is difficult to affect the secondary market stock price. In addition, the sellers of large transactions are also institutions.

In addition, Gree Electric recently launched a large-scale repurchase, but the secondary market has not responded much to this. After the repurchase announcement was issued on May 26, Gree Electric’s share price showed a trend of opening higher and lower prices on May 27. Since then, it has fallen continuously. In 12 trading days, it has fallen from the highest of 59.27 yuan to 54.35 yuan, a cumulative drop of 8%. .

Why is Gree Electric’s repurchase difficult to support the stock price? Some investors believe that the weakening of share repurchase support for stock prices is related to market conditions on the one hand. On the other hand, it is also related to the nature of share repurchases.

Since white horse stocks like Gree Electric have experienced years of rising, they are currently in the stage of valuation digestion, and even repurchases are difficult to drive stock prices. For example, Midea Group is also a frequent visitor to share repurchases, but its impact on stock prices is also limited.

In addition, most of the share repurchases of listed companies are for the purpose of employee stock ownership or equity incentives. Employee shares and equity incentive shares will eventually be sold on the market, and after repurchase, they will only be locked in a short period of time. It will neither affect the size of the total equity, nor increase its performance. Therefore, the share repurchase used for employee stock ownership plans and equity incentives has only a short-term stimulus effect on the shares.

However, there are still institutions optimistic about Gree Electric. The latest research report of Dongguan Securities believes that the company’s large-scale repurchase and employee stock ownership plan will protect the company’s performance. The shares obtained from the repurchase will be used to implement the company’s equity incentives or employee stock ownership plans to further improve the company’s governance structure and build a long-term incentive and restraint mechanism for the management team’s shareholding. The previous 2020 annual report showed that in order to stimulate the enthusiasm and creativity of employees and retain core talents, the company will implement the employee stock ownership plan in 2021 to achieve the binding of employee interests and company interests.

Caixin Securities believes that in the short term, Gree Electric has a single business structure, slow diversification, and short-term performance pressure. However, in the long run, the company will continue to sort out its internal governance structure, actively carry out channel reforms, and accelerate diversified layout. The future development can be expected after the successful implementation of reforms. Comprehensive considerations, the company’s current valuation is attractive, short-term reform implementation and equity incentive catalysis, optimistic about the company’s development potential, give the company 14-16 times PE valuation in 2021, corresponding to a reasonable range of 62.10-70.38 yuan.

In terms of operation, since the beginning of this year, the price increase of raw materials has also brought a lot of impact on the performance of the home appliance industry. In the first quarter of this year, Gree Electric’s gross profit margin was 24.43%, while last year’s gross profit margin was 26.14%; Midea Group’s gross profit margin was 23% in the first quarter and 25.11% last year. The two white power giants Both experienced a decline in gross profit margin of about 2%.

A home appliance dealer told reporters that compared with several major home appliance giants, smaller home appliance companies do not have much brand premium capabilities, and their gross profit margins are relatively meagre. They are more passive in this turbulent wave of raw material price increases. Home appliance industry analyst Hong Shibin also believes that generally for head appliance companies, price increases have little effect on performance. In addition, leading companies can relieve pressure through the advantages of large-scale procurement.

In addition, the upcoming Gree Electric Shareholders’ General Meeting has also attracted much attention. Gree Electric will hold its 2020 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders at 15:00 on June 30. In order to strictly prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus pneumonia epidemic and ensure the safety of participants, the company encourages shareholders to participate in this general meeting of shareholders through online voting.

That is reflected in the details of the ceiling and curved walls. Some details show the delicate taste of the owner. Architects use imitation cement wall paint as a highlight. This paint color has been popular for the past 2 years. Because it brings a close beauty, rustic but modern. Long, rounded glass windows help the bedroom get more light, while creating blocks on a red painted background to help the living room not be boring. The corners are arranged with drawers and drawers, helping to make the bedroom less detailed and uncluttered. In the master bedroom, the architect cleverly used the push door as a door between the bed area and the wardrobe area, saving space. Wall mounted red brick, iron night light painted black bold Loft. Bookshelves, desks, and shelves are all wooden with black painted iron legs. The smooth combination of 2 styles has put on the apartment an irresistible beauty, making everyone admire.

That’s not surprising because many people assume that most of life will take place on a computer or phone… More Internet usage means more scammers have a great opportunity to reach victims We recommend anyone who wants to invest to do their own research first, check every detail before transferring money or sharing personal information… Guys Scammers often put up ads that look professional and trustworthy, with pictures of celebrities that make people think it’s a legitimate investment,” Beach said. A Nottingham police representative advised people to double-check information if invited to invest via call, email or social media. The warning from Nottingham comes after British authorities launched a new campaign, urging people to be on the lookout for investment offers, to report immediately if there are signs of fraud. In May, a woman in the UK was scammed more than $12,000 after reading an article titled “Tesla buys $1.5 billion in Bitcoin, plans to give away $750 million worth of Bitcoin” on the BBC. fake. The article urges readers to send a Bitcoin to an e-wallet, after which “Mr. Musk” will double the amount. After sending over $12,000 worth of Bitcoins with no response, this woman realized she had been scammed. She said this is the money saved to buy a new house. How harmful is Bitcoin to the environment? To mine Bitcoin, one needs a lot of miners that work 24/7. The carbon footprint of Bitcoin mining is equivalent to Argentina’s entire carbon footprint.

Mr. Negi has personally turned the barren land in the cold desert of Himachal Pradesh into a green oasis. (Source: YouTube) In 1977, the Government of India began an ambitious program to reduce the negative effects of desertification in the hot and cold deserts of this Asian country. Mr. Anand Dhawaj Negi was working in the finance department in charge of the Desert Development Program at the time and had seen millions of dollars spent with no real results. Whenever he asked the scientists and program officials about the results, the answer was always that they lacked the technology to grow any sustainable crops in harsh environments. desert . The son of a farmer himself, Negi was tired of excuses and took a leave of absence in 1999 to fix the problem himself. In 2003, he decided to quit his job to focus all of his energy on his growing desert oasis. Mr. Negi has personally turned the barren land in the cold desert of Himachal Pradesh into a green oasis just for everyone, especially the farmer struggling in the region, seeing desert reclamation as entirely possible. It was not an easy thing to do, but the former official knew what he had to do and had the ambition and patience to get through it. Mr. Negi’s first attempt failed as the seeds did not have enough water to grow. He overcame this first challenge by planting by contour, tilling the soil along a consistent height to capture rainwater and reduce soil erosion. At the same time he works with the local community to create irrigation canal The shallows channel runoff from glaciers about 25km away. After witnessing this process, the local irrigation department also began to cooperate. “The irrigation department supplies water to this area. Before that, water was not provided until before June. I connected to the Kuhls area and managed to get a water supply in April and May. When we did, the Irrigation Department also cooperated and ensured a regular water supply here,” Mr. Negi told Down to Earth. But water is just one of the challenges this frigid desert region poses. Sandy soil lacking nutrients is another problem. To provide enough nutrients for the crops he wanted to grow, Mr. Negi started a farm with about 300 Chigu goats and mixed their manure with earthworms to effectively double the nitrogen content of the soil. . This also helps the clover hectares he planted around the oasis to thrive. In the past, clover would fade away as new plants grew. It was the clover growing area that overcame the problem Mr. Negi had at first, a rodent attack. These species will come to eat the delicious plants, so the farmer must plant clover in the legume family around the more valuable crops. Because hares love clover, when there is an abundance of this plant, they don’t bother with other plants. Since starting his job in Himachal Pradesh, Mr. Negi has spent all his money experimenting with combining local farming techniques with more scientific farming methods. It’s a laborious process, but over time the tree mortality rate drops from about 85% to just 1%. After proving that valuable crops such as peas, potatoes, green beans, apples and apricots could be grown even in harsh desert environments, the former official began to focus on long-lasting greenery. years, as he considers them essential to combat climate change in the region. “My first priority here is reforestation. Fake acacia is the most planted. Then there are willows and wild apricots. As for fruit trees and other crops, including green beans, I planted them only as a model for people to replicate,” said Mr. Negi. With just the help of two volunteers, Mr. Anand Dhawaj Negi transformed a cold desert area of ​​more than 90 hectares into a green oasis, receiving praise from both locals and scientists. People come from far and wide to witness this real-life miracle, some buying Negi’s natural fertilizer to grow their own crops and others bringing their livestock to eat clover, the fodder for livestock. cattle are considered the best in the region. Mr. Anand Dhawaj Negi has turned a cold desert area of ​​more than 90 hectares into a green oasis. Sadly, Anand Dhawaj Negi, the desert healer, passed away last month at the age of 74 from a stroke. He will be remembered as a local hero and the green oasis project hopes to be preserved as a reminder that nothing is impossible. Negi’s family intends to continue his work, but has asked the government to take responsibility for the oasis and help the family in its conservation. Virender Sappa Negi, Mr. Negi’s wife, told The Better India news site: ‘Before he said goodbye to us, he planned to plant some evergreen or conifers such as pines and deciduous trees. We want to fulfill these last wishes of his. In addition, we want the state government to take responsibility for this oasis so that his work can inspire future generations.” Anand Dhawaj Negi has become one of the many Indian legends who devoted their lives to afforestation like Uttarakhan’s “Tree Man” or Aditya and Poonam Singh.

At 12 noon, Mrs. Nguyen Thi Chi (67 years old, from Ben Tre) returned to a shack in Vinh Loc B commune (Binh Chanh district, Ho Chi Minh City). Due to the complicated epidemic situation, her business of selling lottery tickets has been severely affected. Going all morning, she has not sold more than half of the lottery tickets received from last night. “Selling too slow, I’m worried this month I won’t be able to pay for the room. Fortunately, the landlord has announced that he will cut my rent by half,” said Ms. Chi, adding that she would tighten spending. To save money, every day, she eats only white rice and dried fish that was given to her by a neighbor. Living in a difficult situation, she was very happy when she heard that her rent was reduced. This joy also comes to more than 300 people who are renting at Residence No. 1 (Hoc Mon district, Ho Chi Minh City). Mr. Pham Trung Hieu, the owner of the accommodation, said that during the recent Covid-19 epidemics, the Ho Chi Minh City Youth Worker Support Center and the accommodation have implemented many programs to support tenants. Currently, many motel owners have exempted or reduced rent for employees. During this epidemic, he also reduced the rent for more than 300 people staying here. “We give gifts to workers who are renting and reduce the room rate by 50%. The accommodation is supported by a sponsor of the Ho Chi Minh City Youth Worker Support Center. We will organize people to come and receive free rice next Saturday,” he said. Meanwhile, in a row of more than 20 rooms for rent on Nguyen Cong Hoan Street (Ward 7, Phu Nhuan District, Ho Chi Minh City), Mr. Ho De is free of charge for some tenants here. This is the fourth time that Mr. De has exempted or reduced the rent. He said: “Three previous epidemics, I also exempted and reduced rent. Poor families rent here for many years, I reduce the money. For students, students with difficulties, I always free rent.” Ms. Only received a reduction in the rent of the room from the lessor. To save money, she only eats white rice with the dried fish given to her. Local people said that Mr. De’s exemption and reduction of rent is not uncommon. Because more than 40 years ago, he had taken care of, even for people with difficult circumstances, poor students to stay in free accommodation. Leave a house of tens of billions, treat tenants like family In particular, recently, he completed a will with the content of leaving 2 houses worth tens of billions of dong for the lonely elderly and poor students – free of charge. Ho Thi Nhu Quynh, a student at the University of Industry 4, who is renting here, said: “Every epidemic, Mr. De also visits and asks for the innkeepers”. “He put up a notice to give everyone a 50% discount on rent. However, when he knew which families were too difficult, he reduced them from 60-70% of the rent. Some people are completely exempted from rent by him,” Nhu Quynh said. Similar to Mr. De, Ms. Nguyen Thi Thuy (owner of a motel room in Tan Quy Ward, Tan Phu District, Ho Chi Minh City) also reduced the rent and space for the poor from last May. This is the fourth time that Mr. Ho De has exempted or reduced the rent. However, until this June, the epidemic situation in Ho Chi Minh City was still complicated, so she continued to reduce the rent. She even actively reduced the rent of her already very low business premises. Mr. Nguyen Van Tai, the tenant of Ms. Thuy’s premises, said that he and his wife rented the business front in front of Ms. Thuy’s inn to sell soft drinks. Although located in a large street frontage, crowded with people, convenient for business, Ms. Thuy rented it to him at a very cheap price. “In this epidemic, Ho Chi Minh City was separated for a long time, so I sold very little. One day, we barely sold anything, it was very difficult. Fortunately, Ms. Thuy actively reduced the rent. This has helped our family a lot during this tight time,” said Mr. Tai. Thuy shared, most of the tenants here have been with her for many years. According to each person’s circumstances, Ms. Thuy will reduce the rent differently. She said: “In the epidemic, people who work are unemployed, business people are sluggish… Therefore, their income has also decreased a lot. How can I collect enough rent? I try to reduce the rent, rent the premises so that they can help some or that part. Right now, I just want to help workers overcome the pandemic so that they can stabilize their lives and send money back to their hometowns.” Like Mrs. Thuy, Mr. Hieu said, he always considers the people who are renting with him as “family members”. When his “family” was severely affected by the epidemic, he could not sit still. Therefore, even though he knew that he would lose a large amount of income when reducing the rent by 50% for more than 300 people, he still tried to do it.

With a valuation of over 600 billion yuan, the world’s largest travel giant is about to go public!

On June 11, Didi Chuxing formally submitted a prospectus to the US SEC, officially sprinting for listing.

After 10 years of long-distance running and 22 rounds of financing, the largest travel giants in China and even the world have finally entered a new chapter.

Didi’s prospectus has a huge amount of information, including data that shocks the world, such as 493 million global annual active users and 15 million annual active drivers. Create nearly 600 billion yuan in revenue for platform drivers in 3 years…

But there are also multiple hidden worries, such as a three-year loss of 35.3 billion yuan, and continued large-scale profitability is still far away; the future of the autonomous driving business is uncertain; and it is also conducive to high-hanging antitrust supervision.

As a rare super unicorn that has not yet been listed in the past 10 years, who has benefited the most from this round of wealth creation myth Didi? Under the anti-monopoly background, where will its future go?

one

From the perspective of the shareholding structure disclosed in the Didi prospectus, among the hundreds of billions of dollars in valuation, The biggest beneficiary is SoftBank Group . That’s right, it is the Japanese richest man Sun Zhengyi who voted for Ali to become a god in the first battle.

Since its founding in 2012, Didi has seen endless battles and countless small battles over the past 10 years. Fortunately, the reckless era of mobile internet has given it tremendous gains.

As of Q1 of 2021, Didi has been operating in more than 4,000 cities and towns in 15 countries, including China. Its businesses include online ride-hailing, taxis, ride-hailing, shared bicycles, shared motorcycles, on behalf of driving, and car services. , Freight, finance and autonomous driving, etc., the king of proper travel.

Of course, without those 22 rounds of huge financing, there would be no Big Mac today.

According to data, Didi has completed 22 rounds of financing, with a total amount of more than 100 billion yuan.Didi The gold owners include SoftBank, Ali, Tencent, Apple, Hillhouse, Sequoia, and China Merchants Bank, Bank of Communications, Foxconn, Toyota, Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan Chase, Goldman Sachs…the lineup is unprecedentedly luxurious.

In this day group, the highest shareholding ratio of Softbank reached 21.5%, compared with the founder Cheng maintaining only 6%, and co-founder Liu Qing holding 1.7%.

If calculated at a valuation of US$100 billion, Softbank’s investment in Didi will return as much as US$21.5 billion (137 billion yuan), enough to make Son Zhengyi the richest man in Japan again…..

And Didi is not short of money now. The sprint to go public has a lot to do with the eagerness of shareholders like SoftBank to exit.

Why are shareholders eager to withdraw? First of all, although Didi is the world’s largest giant, it still bleeds.

Looking at the data, its annual revenue from 2018 to 2020 is 135.3 billion yuan, 154.786 billion yuan, and 141.736 billion yuan, respectively. The net losses were 15 billion yuan, 9.7 billion yuan, and 10.6 billion yuan, respectively, with a huge loss of 35.3 billion yuan in three years.

With such losses every year, no matter how strong and firm shareholders are, they will not turn a blind eye to it, and there is a need to cash out as soon as possible.

Secondly, after the anti-monopoly storm in China, Didi has entered the supervision field. In May, it was jointly interviewed by eight major departments including the Ministry of Transport. , Requiring the platform to draw a high percentage, arbitrarily adjust pricing rules, and arbitrarily increase membership fees and other issues to immediately carry out rectification.

Under the high pressure of supervision, Didi’s valuation is no longer the same as it was three years ago, and various uncertainties and risks have also followed.

Therefore, the era of Internet giants making big fortunes has completely ended. Didi shareholders can no longer calmly accompany them, and the exit from the listing has become inevitable.

Moreover, the prospectus also pointed out that the board members appointed by Softbank will resign as Didi directors after the prospectus takes effect. This means that the major shareholder SoftBank has no desire to fight, you know what to do after listing.

This can also be seen from the use of Didi’s fundraising. The prospectus shows that Didi’s fundraising will be used in three aspects:

About 30% is used for international expansion, about 30% is used to improve technical capabilities including shared travel, electric vehicles and autonomous driving, and about 20% is used to launch new products and expand existing product categories to continuously improve user experience .

It can be seen that Didi spends all its money on expanding international business, investing in future technologies, and improving user experience. It is not a lack of money that requires a blood transfusion on the market.

In addition, Didi’s uncertain future technology also makes shareholders anxious.

two

Didi summarizes the current complex business lines into four cores and three major businesses.

The four cores are shared travel platforms, car service networks, electric vehicles and autonomous driving. The three major businesses are mainly Didi’s revenue composition. They are China’s travel business (online car-hailing, taxi, agent driving, and ride-hailing, etc.), International business (international travel and food delivery) and other businesses (shared bicycles, freight, autonomous driving, financial services, etc.).

Among them, autonomous driving is regarded by Didi as a key trump card in the decisive battle for the future.

We have said that the most prosperous 10 years of mobile internet have passed. In the future, model innovation will gradually fail. Real technological innovation is the kingly way.

Didi has also seen this trend and made a huge transformation.

As of the end of 2020, Didi has 15,914 full-time employees worldwide, of which 7,110 are R&D employees, and R&D employees account for 44.7%. At that time, Didi, which focused on operations and marketing, has gradually increased investment in R&D and innovation.

Speaking of technological innovation, in the field of travel, electric vehicles and autonomous driving solutions are definitely inevitable, and Didi has long established a plan for this.

In August 2019, Didi split the autonomous driving department into an independent company to focus on autonomous driving research and development. In May 2020, Didi Autopilot announced the completion of a round A financing of over US$525 million, which was jointly invested by Didi and Softbank.

After the A round, the valuation of Didi’s autonomous driving has reached US$3.4 billion, but it has recently been revealed that it has completed a new round of financing of US$300 million, and its valuation may have exceeded US$5 billion.

In addition, 30% of the funds raised this time will be invested in technologies such as shared travel, electric vehicles and autonomous driving, and Didi’s expectations for autonomous driving technology are self-evident.

However, autonomous driving is a big challenge. Technically, it involves functions such as visual computing, AI, 5G, human-computer interaction, as well as hardware such as lidar and chips, and the technical requirements are extremely high.

At the competitor level, the autopilot circuit has been chased by the two giants Tesla and Huawei, as well as players such as Xiaopeng and Baidu.

Judging from past experience, if Huawei does not do it, it will be a blockbuster. Every time it enters a track, it will have a strong voice and let its opponents walk on thin ice.

Now that Huawei’s autonomous driving technology equipped with lidar is mature, car companies such as BAIC and Changan may become its customers. On the other hand, Didi, although the valuation of the autonomous driving company has reached 5 billion US dollars, the specific results have not yet landed.

It is difficult to say whether Didi, which has crossed over from the Internet, can match Huawei in technological innovation, and it is difficult for shareholders to see clearly. This is the problem.

The vigorous model innovation is coming to an end. The market has no patience for Internet giants such as Didi, which have been losing money for years. For example, Kuaishou has plummeted by 50% after its listing, and giants such as Meituan and JD are also making significant adjustments.

Under the regulatory storm, the main business has suffered huge losses year after year, coupled with the huge challenge of autonomous driving. It is still a question of whether Didi, which has many worries, can hold the 100 billion U.S. dollar valuation…

The color of the upper body clothes is white, and a mid-length skirt is worn underneath. This skirt has a slightly patterned design on the top. This way, it looks a little bit of design, and when worn on the body, it really looks like a Like a lady.

She is wearing a suspender skirt. The color of this skirt is black, and it modifies her figure, but she feels that her figure looks fuller, so I feel that the charm exudes from her body will be more. Be more mature and wear a pair of black high heels underneath.

This time I was also wearing a suspender skirt, and I felt that her body did not look particularly slender, it seemed to be a fuller one, but it looked larger in terms of dressing, and this skirt The length is relatively long, and the selected color looks more gentle.

Wearing a shirt on the upper body, the color of this shirt looks more gentle, especially if it is worn on the body, it will set off her skin tone. A pair of jeans is simply matched below, which actually looks like a whole person. The curve will look more prominent.

At this time, she was wearing this dress inside and it fits her figure better, it looks like she has a particularly prominent figure, with a skirt underneath, and at this time she is wearing a suit jacket outside, which can be said to have a sense of overall design. It looks very fashionable.

The color of the dress I am wearing is red. In fact, this color is more set off a person’s skin color, and her skin color looks whiter. The most important thing is that the color of the lipstick also looks at this time. It’s more vivid.

Especially for consumers who are going to buy a three-row SUV, among the Volkswagen models with a price range of 300,000 to 400,000, should they choose the fledgling scene or the Tuon that has been in the market for many years?

To this end, we selected the 2021 380TSI four-wheel drive R-Line extension version with a pre-sale price of 345,000 yuan, and compare it with the 2021 380TSI four-wheel drive luxury version of Touron, which is priced at 342,000 yuan. Take a look at these two models. For models with a price difference of only 3,000 yuan, who can be better in this dialogue between North and South Volkswagen.

From the appearance point of view, the front face design of Lanjing has a strong sense of hierarchy. The front surround is decorated with a lot of chrome elements. The side of the body looks very slender. The rear part uses a lot of horizontal lines. The upper part is a through-type taillight. There is a distinct sense of layering.

The mid-term facelift of the Touron adopts a new front face design. The overall outline of the headlights has changed significantly. The interior is upgraded to IQ.Light full LED matrix headlights. The penetrating LED light strips and the flat Volkswagen LOGO in the center of the front can also be used. Lights up, it feels like a new energy vehicle.

The taillights of Touron use the same through-type design as the headlights, and the central LOGO can also be lit. With the design of running water turn signals and through-type chrome bars, the texture has been significantly improved.

In terms of the wheelbase of the vehicle body, the length, width and height of Lanjing is 5152/2002/1795mm, and the wheelbase is 2980mm; the length, width and height of Tuon is 5052/1989/1773mm, and the wheelbase is 2980mm. In contrast, the landscape is better than Tuon.

Tuang Interior Pictures

In the interior, the full LCD instrument panel is used in the interior, with a floating central control multimedia touch screen. The three-spoke multi-function steering wheel and the lever-type electronic shift mechanism are matched with each other, and the level of the central control is well-prepared. The platform design further enhances the sense of technology and luxury in the car.

In contrast, Touron’s interior is consistent with the old model. The classic Volkswagen family design makes people unable to pick out too many faults.

In terms of power, Lanjing is equipped with a 2.0T engine of model EA888-DPL, which is consistent with Touron. Among them, the 330TSI version has a maximum power of 186 horsepower and a peak torque of 320 N·m; the 380TSI version has a maximum power of 220 horsepower and a peak torque of 350 N·m, and the engine is matched with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. box.

The difference is that the official zero-hundred acceleration of the 380TSI four-wheel drive R-Line extension version is 9.2 seconds, and the combined fuel consumption of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is 8.6 liters; The fuel consumption is 8.5 liters.

In addition, in terms of configuration, although this selection is more expensive than the route, it also has additional functions such as merging assistance, lane departure warning, active braking, and steering wheel shifting.

Say a few more words

In general, through comparison, Tuon’s biggest advantage is that it has a certain consumer base after the market test, while the biggest advantage of Lanjing lies in being younger and more equipped.

To be honest, it was born at the same root. From the perspective of platform architecture and Volkswagen’s two-car strategy, Lanjing and Tourang are targeting the medium and large SUV market with a price range of 300,000 to 400,000 yuan. The volume is full of flavor.

Is OEM still not a good business?

Wen丨Chinese Business Strategies A Yun

Compared with the “quick money” made by emerging industries such as the Internet, the traditional industry of shoemaking is often looked down upon, and the considerable productivity and steady growth in revenue of shoemaking companies in Taiwan have caused people to rethink about foundry. business.

【Shoe King】

On May 6, 2021, Forbes China Taiwan Rich List was released.

It was not Terry Gou, the founder of Foxconn, the world’s largest contract manufacturer, nor the Wei family behind the food giant Master Kong, who aspired to the throne of the richest man. Rather, it was a shoe maker with a net worth of US$13.8 billion (approximately 89 billion yuan). Zhang Congyuan.

Maybe you don’t know who Zhang Congyuan is, but the Converse, Nike, and Puma you wear on your feet are likely to come from his foundry-Huali Group.

Just over a month ago, Huali Group successfully went public and became the first sports shoe manufacturer in A shares. The prospectus shows that even in 2020 affected by the epidemic, its net profit is still as high as 1.876 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 7.27%.

▲Huali Group listed on the ChiNext of Shenzhen Stock Exchange

Zhang Congyuan was born in the countryside of Yunlin County, Taiwan Province in 1948. His father farmed the fields for a living. He graduated from Chiayi Agricultural School at the age of 18 and joined a shoe factory in Yunlin at the age of 20 as an ordinary administrator. After he became famous, the media interviewed his fellow villagers and classmates in Tainan and talked about his achievements. The most described as “unexpected”.

With management experience in a shoe factory, in the 1980s, Zhang Congyuan decided to start his own shoe factory, Jingxin Shoes. Due to limited funds, he can only buy pig houses and farmhouses as factories. “If I don’t have money at home, I will live a life without money. If people buy lots and buildings, I will buy pig houses and farmhouses in the country.”

With insufficient funds, it is natural not to choose products with high thresholds and difficult production. In an interview with the media, Zhang Congyuan said: “If football shoes and basketball shoes are the first and second profit kings in shoes, vulcanized shoes (canvas shoes) are probably the last one.”

And it is precisely this “least profitable” vulcanized shoe that made him start and gain a foothold.

Because Taiwan is rich in rubber and cheap in materials, if ordinary sports shoes are produced, there is almost no R&D cost; while vulcanized shoe soles need to be cross-linked with sulfur under a certain temperature and pressure environment to make the two strong Combining land together, the quality is not easy to be guaranteed, and many shoe companies have given up.

There is only one logic for Zhang Congyuan to change his original idea and choose to go the opposite way with his peers:

Doing business that others don’t mean less competition. As long as you do a good job, you can survive.

“I didn’t think it would be more difficult if you can only do the leftover orders from others… The point is, do you have the determination to do better than others.” Zhang Congyuan said.

Compared with “Huali”, Zhang Congyuan is better known in Taiwan as his shoe factory “Hongfu”. Hongfu is the world’s second largest shoe factory with 150,000 employees worldwide, and it is also the world’s largest vulcanized shoe factory.

Personal success is inseparable from the creation of the times and the environment. Zhang Congyuan’s story is only a microcosm of the development of the footwear industry in Taiwan.

【Rise】

In 1832, an Irishman immigrated to the United States. When he was a printer in a small town in Massachusetts, he stood in front of the machine every day. Because he felt pain after standing for a long time, he put a rubber pad on the sole of his feet and the pain was significantly reduced. After he got home, he simply fixed the rubber skin to the sole, and rubber-soled shoes were invented.

It is only natural that Taiwan, which has a huge rubber output, has become the “base camp of raw materials” for rubber soles.

During the Second World War, the Japanese established large-scale rubber factories in Taiwan, imported natural rubber from Nanyang, and mass produced products such as tires and rubber shoes.

In 1955, Hollywood star James Dean became popular with the movie “Rebellion Without a Cause”. He wore jeans and white canvas shoes, making canvas shoes (that is, sulfurized shoes) once a symbol of youth rebellion and hippie spirit. All the rage.

▲The image of James Dean wearing canvas shoes

Since then, Converse and Puma have carried out technical research on canvas shoes, through the use of sulfurized steam technology to make the upper and sole have higher strength and elasticity, which makes it possible to mass-produce sulfurized shoes and become popular consumer products.

The earliest companies that produced Puma and Converse were the “Hongfu” of Zhang Congyuan.

In the early 1970s, developed countries in Europe and the United States gradually entered the post-industrial era, and the market was in a highly competitive state. The transfer of manufacturing industries to reduce manufacturing costs became a common outlet for European and American companies. The central region of Taiwan, China, which has cheap labor, has become the “place of heaven,” and the shoe industry has been able to grow rapidly.

In 1971, the number of shoes sold abroad in Taiwan reached 100 million pairs. In 1976, the export sales of the footwear industry in Taiwan surpassed that of Italy, becoming the world’s largest footwear export region. The shoe industry, together with the electronics and textile industries, is believed to have created the economic miracle of Taiwan in the 1970s.

In the 1980s, internationally renowned foundry shoe factories such as Hongfu, Baocheng, Fengtai, Yuqi, Longdian, Qinglu, Kainan, and Jiuxing emerged in Taiwan, and Taiwan also gained the beauty of the “kingdom of shoemaking”. name.

In 1986, the total amount of footwear sold abroad in Taiwan reached its peak, exceeding 800 million pairs. At that time, the global population was approximately 4.9 billion, which means that one out of every six people in the world could wear shoes made in Taiwan.

In 1987, the total export value of rubber products in Taiwan was 7.46 billion Taiwan dollars (approximately 287 million U.S. dollars), of which the export value of rubber shoes was 3 billion Taiwan dollars, accounting for almost half.

However, Taiwan’s economy, which relied on the rapid rise of “foundry” in various industries, has gradually unbalanced the industrial structure due to long-term excess output, and at the same time is greatly affected by the export market, which has laid hidden dangers for its subsequent industrial predicament.

In 1988, Taiwan’s economy overheated and the Taiwan dollar’s ​​appreciation against the U.S. dollar accelerated, causing the footwear industry’s exports to suddenly chill. From January to April of this year, the number of shoes exported from Taiwan to the United States decreased by 29% compared with the same period of the previous year.

According to statistics from the Taiwan Shoemaking Association, in 1988 and 1989, more than 600 production lines in Taiwan were discontinued.

Exports are cold, production is trapped, and the “small profits but quick turnover” route is unsustainable. Taiwanese shoe companies, which control more than 80% of the world’s branded shoe production, have set their sights on the other side of the strait.

【migrate】

In the 1990s, many Taiwanese shoe companies moved their factories to the mainland, including Zhang Congyuan’s companies.

He co-founded Xinfeng Group as a joint venture to engage in sports shoes foundry in mainland China. In 1995, the company established its headquarters in Hong Kong and successfully went public. Zhang Congyuan owns 15.7% of the shares.

Cheap and sufficient labor was the advantage of the mainland at that time in attracting shoe companies in Taiwan. Statistics show that in 1987, the wages of shoe-makers in Taiwan were US$1.55/hour, while the wages of shoe-makers in mainland China were only US$1.75/day.

Coupled with the policy advantages of reform and opening up, In a very short period of time, the mainland shoe industry has replicated the glory of the shoe industry in Taiwan.

The two provinces of Guangdong and Fujian, which are the closest to Taiwan, have become destinations for the relocation of the shoe industry in Taiwan. Cities such as Dongguan, Putian, and Jinjiang have become beneficiaries of this wave of industrial relocation.

Take Putian as an example. Before Taiwanese businessmen entered Putian, Putian was already the center of the footwear industry in Fujian Province. In 1986, the total output value of Putian’s shoe leather industry exceeded 100 million yuan, accounting for more than 70% of the province. After Taiwanese businessmen brought in a large number of international orders, it exploded at an astonishing rate of development.

Putian had more than 100 shoe companies in 1993, producing over 100 million pairs of shoes each year; by 1996, Putian’s total output value of the shoe industry had risen to 4.29 billion yuan.

however, The brilliance created by relying on labor advantages and following the foundry model is also short-lived.

To put it bluntly, OEMs still make hard money. According to the survey of the International Consumers Union, the gross profit of the factory accounts for 2% of the cost of a pair of shoes, the labor cost accounts for 0.4%, and the labor cost accounts for 20% of the gross profit of the factory.

The rising cost of raw materials is inevitable, and the factory can only make a fuss on this 20% of labor if it wants to increase its net profit.

Thanks to the regional economic development brought about by the rise of the manufacturing industry, the rising labor cost in the mainland has once again made the foundry inevitably fall into a vicious circle. In 2001, the minimum wage in Fujian Province was 380 yuan/month, while the minimum wage in Vietnam was about 164 yuan/month.

In 2012, the sports shoe giant Adidas announced that it would close its only own factory in China and relocate its production line to Southeast Asia, kicking off a new wave of industrial transfer. Taiwanese shoe companies have also begun to move to Southeast Asia where labor costs are lower.

【future】

Labor costs continue to rise, and shoemaking alone can no longer bring considerable profits.

After Zhang Congyuan’s Xinfeng Group went public, it began to diversify its development and create a number of sports brands, and even increased investment in the real estate industry. The proportion of shoemaking businesses in the overall business has become smaller and smaller.

In July 2013, Xinfeng Group announced that it would sell the entire equity of Yiming Investment for a total consideration of 429 million yuan, and its main business is the manufacture of footwear products.

It was the Zhang Congyuan family who took over. Zhang Congyuan, who started from shoemaking, was obviously not willing to give up his old business that he had accumulated over the years. He renamed the shoemaking business of Xinfeng Group to “Huali” and started to operate independently.

A short time after taking over, the Zhang Congyuan family first acquired 15 Vietnam factories and Dominican factories through the family-controlled Hong Kong company, and the trading business of 24 trading companies, and then acquired 15 companies in Hong Kong, China through the subsidiaries of Huali Co., Ltd. .

At present, the majority of Huali Group’s employees are in northern Vietnam, while the proportion of manufacturing personnel in mainland China and Taiwan is only 0.3%. As of the first half of 2020, the company’s self-produced output totaled 75.4 million pairs, of which 74.61 million pairs were produced in Vietnam and 800,000 pairs were produced in Dominica, each accounting for 98.9% and 1.1% of the total.

Zhang Congyuan’s consistent strategy of “small profits but quick turnover” determines that the cheap labor force in Southeast Asia will be the key to Huali’s profit.

In the first half of 2020, Huali’s average sales unit price to Converse is 72.50 yuan/pair, and the average sales unit price to Nike is 80.20 yuan/pair. The other factory is mainly concentrated in Taiwan and the mainland shoe company Winterthur. The unit price to Nike is about 120 to 140 yuan, nearly twice that of Huali.

In terms of output, Huali is also far ahead among the shoe companies in Taiwan. In 2019, the per capita footwear output of Yuyuan, Yuqi, and Fengtai were 929 pairs/year, 927 pairs/year, and 792 pairs/year, respectively, while Huali reached 1,378 pairs/year.

In addition, compared with other Southeast Asian countries, Vietnam has the advantages of being close to China, which can effectively save transportation costs and have low import tariffs on European and American countries. This is why Huali chose to locate its factory here.

In 2018, the shoe manufacturing business revenue growth rates of several major shoe companies in Taiwan, Yuyuan, Yuqi, and Winterthur were -3.12%, -3.91%, and 9.41%, respectively, with an average growth rate of 0.79%. The closing achieved a high growth of 23.96%.

From the disclosure of Huali Group’s prospectus, Huali Group has nearly 136,000 employees in 2020, more than 180 million pairs of shoes, operating income of more than 15 billion yuan, and net profit of 1.821 billion yuan.

Huali’s considerable productivity and year-round steady growth in revenue have allowed people to see the amazing resilience of the traditional industry of shoemaking and begin to re-understand the business of “foundry”.

However, everything has two sides, What people see is brilliance, but what they don’t see is crisis.

Under the influence of the epidemic, European and American sports shoe brands have cut orders. The revenue of Huali’s two major customers, Nike and VF, has dropped significantly. The Nike report showed that the net profit in the fourth quarter of 2019 was a direct loss of 5.634 billion yuan; VF revenue also plummeted, and the revenue in the first quarter of 2020 fell by as much as 47.51%.

Misfortune never comes singly, Vietnam, which has an advantage in labor, has also been exposed to a “labor shortage”.

Vietnam Express (VnExpress) pointed out that in Ho Chi Minh City and Binh Duong Province, the monthly salary of textile and shoe factories, including social insurance and lunch, is between 5 million and 12 million VND, but they are affected by emerging industries such as the Internet. , Even if it pays 15 million (approximately RMB 4,200), it is still difficult to find workers.

At the same time, the emerging economy is surging, which has also accelerated the fleeing of some young people from traditional manufacturing. The prospectus of Huali Group’s listing also shows that the company’s turnover rates in the past three years have been 22.04%, 22.83%, and 27.31%. At least 20% of employees leave each year, and the turnover rate has increased.

Following in the footsteps of the footwear industry in Taiwan, Zhang Congyuan, who started from scratch, relied on the rapid pursuit of cheaper labor and now leads the way as a “dark horse”. However, under the general trend of accelerated disappearance of labor cost advantages, the future challenges will only be More.

Traditional “foundry” is still profitable, but when “low-cost labor” no longer becomes the advantage of the shoe industry, can Taiwanese foundry companies represented by Huali continue their shoemaking kingdom? In other words, whether the dependence on labor can be reduced will largely determine the future of “foundry”.

In fact, Huali is also making plans for its future, which is to upgrade from OEM production to design and OEM production, and gradually has a strong product development and design strength.

Man City decided to keep Cancelo and Bernardo. Two Portuguese players have been linked with a move to the Nou Camp this summer. Barca’s offer is in exchange for full-back Sergi Roberto and striker Ousmane Dembele moving in the opposite direction. However, sources from Man City say they are not interested in any swap deal. The rumors appeared after Barca continuously recruited stars out of contract Man City such as Sergio Aguero and Eric Garcia on a free transfer. Cancelo has been eyed by Barca but with four years remaining on his contract, it is unlikely he will leave City this summer. Moreover, this player is receiving the absolute trust of Pep and shows no sign of dissatisfaction after a good season. Meanwhile, Bernardo is said to be aiming to move to Spain this summer. But his future will only be discussed after the EURO. The 26-year-old midfielder is with Cancelo and Ruben Dias focusing on the goal of defending the Portuguese throne. Reports in Spain suggest that Barca have targeted seven stars in coach Pep Guardiola’s squad. In addition to Aguero, Garcia, Cancelo and Bernardo, the Catalan team also wants Ilkay Gundogan, Aymeric Laporte and Raheem Sterling. However, it seems Man City no longer wants to do business with the Catalan team after they lost two of their stars without receiving a single transfer. Not only have Barca contacted a number of Man City’s star players this summer, but they are even said to have “courted” former Green Man nutritionist Silvia Tremoleda. This female expert left Man City 2 years ago.

After school or in his spare time, Canto often performs burrowing by hand. Later, Canto’s friend Andreu brought along a pneumatic drill to speed up the process – the two eventually created a 3m deep cave. Andres Canto stands outside his cave. Six years later, Canto tried to create his own cave with separate living room and bedroom with heating, wifi, music system. Now 20 years old, Canto really doesn’t understand what motivated him so much to build this cave but he’s happy with the result. Canto continued: “It’s great, I have everything I need. Working here can be uncomfortable because it’s humid and there’s not much air around, but I found my own motivation to keep going. keep perfecting it every day”. Cantor’s burrow sometimes suffers from flooding and is often visited by insects, spiders, and snails, but this guy usually doesn’t mind. He further explained: “I have always liked building small huts. I live in the countryside and when I find discarded wood, I will build a nice house,” added Cantor. Canto estimates that the project costs no more than €50 (£43) as most of the building materials are much cheaper than he expected. Canto mainly burrows using buckets to bring up the soil, but eventually decided to incorporate other digging techniques such as using a pulley system. Canto also reinforced his cave’s roof using a vaulted entrance and vaulted ceiling with columns, as well as concrete walls to prevent collapse. Image of the cave during the previous construction. Video of Canto’s cave quickly went viral on social media and immediately attracted the attention of local authorities. Canto said: “Since I was the first to do such a thing, when the local officials arrived, there were no specific reports of it. It was not a basement, nor was it a warehouse, it’s just a well-built hut in the ground.” Amazingly, Canto’s parents were also normal with their son’s “retreat” in the ground. Canto even said: “My mother went down to the cave and told me it was smaller than the one in the video”.

Along with that is the hobby of wearing pink clothes, from clothes to accessories, cars are absolutely this “banh beo” color, so if it is said that beauties still have a preference for boys, many people must will be very surprised. Recently, in the latest vlog, Ngoc Trinh “confessed” that she is very fond of “men” accessories. There is even a ring that is too large, so long legs have to wrap paper to fit… Although I have inserted more paper, it has to be inserted in my thumb to fit. The necklace that Ngoc Trinh compares to… the shaver is actually an item for men. She often mixes it for personality outfits. In terms of costumes, sometimes, she also wears loose-fitting designs, like men’s clothes. Comfortable chemise styles, tied with flaps, unbuttoned indifferently showing off the slim waist. The black suits bring the image of a luxurious “mastermind”. Every time she “dresses up” in this style, the lingerie queen receives many compliments from the audience. From time to time “change the wind”, Ngoc Trinh is still beautiful. The vest is super wide, covering the hands and not covering the beauty of long legs.

I’m not a junk food person. For over 30 years, I haven’t even touched sweets. Not because of any abstinence, but basically because of the simple taste that doesn’t like sweet. Coffee also hand bo, no sugar. Seeing cake, candy is casually ignored. And the thing that always scares the most is the cake. I don’t understand why, just see the cake and dodge. But even if you’re not a person who likes to eat snacks, your mouth will still snap when you have the opportunity. The occasion here is when sitting with leaf tea, hanging out with friends. The little things, the little things on the table, will also make me finger. Of course, must be not sweet. Men’s thumbs-up is actually very common. Just look at a drinking table anywhere we will see. A few peanuts, a few spring rolls, a few pieces of toad, mango or even when the mouth is sad, just fingering the stalks of herbs is also a type of snack. That’s just talking about the type of man who rarely eats gifts like me. There are many other people, with different tastes, will eat “flying in the line” snack. For example, my brother “trumpeter” named Kien. This man is especially fond of fried dough. Every time you enter the city. Ho Chi Minh performed or recorded, he would have to make a good fried dough fight anyway. Many times, the brothers went out to drink together, had to order fried dough for him to eat to satisfy his cravings. When it comes to fried dough, I’m also startled. It’s something I’ve never eaten before. In the past, during the subsidy period, in the early 80’s, I remember every 3-4 o’clock in the afternoon, my father and a few colleagues working in the design room dragged home to make a few cups of wine. The bait is nothing. My son (me) is always sent to run errands to the top of the street to buy his father a few packets of roasted peanuts. “Wages” to buy is a separate package, sit out in a corner to sip. Northerners often drink snacks with roasted peanuts and basil. Southerners have other interesting snacks as bait. It’s raw shrimp noodles. One or two packages of noodles are broken, take the bundle of seasoning powder that comes with it, sprinkle it on it, squeeze a slice of lemon into it, that’s enough for a tray of four people who stay until late at night. And the way of picking up tiny raw noodles and sipping them is really interesting. It has the face, the sourness, the slightly sweet taste of seasoning there. With a sip of “crazy” beer (how to call a kind of beer of people in the South) or a little wine, tell a few crap stories, chat with neighbors, it is true to the spirit of “alley” of Saigon Very gong. Referring to that raw instant noodles, those who grew up in the North in the 80s and 90s will surely remember. Almost all children love to eat raw shrimp noodles. The smell of the burning compliment of the package of noodles that day was strangely impressive. Many children still crave raw noodles so much that every day when their parents are not at home, when the meal should be cooked, they break them and eat them raw and drink cold water. Quick and easy, as well as delicious. Noodles with water in the stomach and then it will not bloom. That is the logic of the playful and lazy children. Later, instant noodles lost the taste of the old days. Even the famous varieties of that day such as “Two shrimp”, “Miliket” still sold in the market could no longer retain the smell and taste of decades ago. Strictly speaking, today’s noodles are better, cleaner, better cooked to eat, but to eat raw, it loses the memory of instant noodles. Going back to the story of drinking and drinking with a pack of raw noodles of the Southern people, the spirit, the indigenous culture, it pops up very clearly there. Southerners, especially Westerners, have an interesting and strange way of life. “Hey Ut, what to do?” This can be a very common question to see if your friends are free. “Reprimanded for doing a few dirty things” is a catchphrase that also goes to the South. “Cun” is “free time” and “doing wrong” is… not doing bad things at all. “Doing bad things” in the inner region can be drinking, eating… It describes an action that is spontaneous, unfussy, liberal and impromptu. The word “doing it wrong”, must be said is too excellent. Living in the South for more than twenty years, living in the alley a lot, the relationship with the people in the alley is also close, so I learned a lot. I was also busy receiving a phone call from a fake neighbor that day asking the same questions as above, I asked in the correct voice “did some bottles? Where are you?” then received the answer “I’m at my house. I’m quiet”. “I’m alone” is actually “I’m alone” but for some reason, the “yen” sound evokes a very strange image and feeling. It shows loneliness but a loneliness without sadness. Referring to those typical languages ​​​​of the Southern people, we will certainly find it extremely diverse. “Mixed” for example. It is a way of drinking with a single glass for the whole table, rotating and drinking. Drinking this way is sentimental, but honestly, in this COVID-19 time, it evokes fear. Drinking from the same cup is easy to expose to diseases and surely people will criticize people in the garden to drink like that as dirty. But then again, is it dirtier than some well-dressed men smoking the same cigar? Dialects are incredibly interesting and, strictly speaking, we’re lucky to be in a country that is geographically spread out and dialects vary along that length. Of course, that difference may bring some difficulties and obstacles in economic and social development, but it brings a cultural diversity with many interesting colors. But in hindsight, there still seems to be an injustice to the dialect as the official dictionaries do not consider the way of saying certain particular words in common in a locality as an official entry. There is even a disdain as if it were a lisp. After all, writing is to record what people say, with one of its functions being the notation. So, when people in the Southwest region don’t say “perch” but instead “go fish”, why don’t we consider “Go” as an entry in the dictionary, with the caption “Perch” , in the South West parlance”?. What’s wrong with reading from father to son? Just like in the Central region, with the word “how” for “buffalo”, the word “nac” means “water”. To disregard the dialect in a rigid reference to the fact that there must be a standard of pronunciation, it seems that we are wasting a real cultural resource, because the way of speaking is not just speaking, it is also instructive. concept, culture and living spirit of a region. But sadly, when the dialect is being looked down on like that, in today’s press, the use of trendy words (following the trend) of young people is automatically accepted easily. This is not to denigrate the new words of young people because there are many extremely interesting words. However, the passed on and the new born should go hand in hand, as a recognition of the origin and development of a living language. By the way, ignore this one, get excited about that, is it a bait to catch the ball or not???

In fact, many collectors have suffered from the loss of experts, and they have been deceived by the combination of experts and buyers. Some experts even claim that fake antiques are real and sell them at a high price for their private interests, or they say that they are real as fake, and buy them at a low price. But not all experts are like this. There are many appraiser experts who cherish wings very much, and they severely condemn this phenomenon. At a treasure appraisal site, an expert couldn’t help but turn his face. This person was Cai Guosheng, the appraisal expert of CCTV’s “Treasure Hunt” program.

The story goes like this. At that time, there was a treasure appraisal program in the place, and Cai Guosheng and several other experts were the guests of appraisal. In the morning, an expert surnamed Huang said that a fake Shakyamuni standing statue was true. In the afternoon, the expert was even more unscrupulous. One person brought up a porcelain vase from the Song Dynasty, and the inscription underneath was the Grand View of Song Dynasty’s reign. However, the inscription on porcelain is a tradition that only existed after the Ming Dynasty, so it is obviously fake. But the expert ignored the reminders of the people around him and said it was true.

Then another farmer from Heilongjiang brought up a jade pig dragon of Hongshan culture and said that he dug it out of his own land. However, the Hongshan culture is in Liaoning and Inner Mongolia, how could it be in Heilongjiang? , And there are more than a dozen in one dig. But the expert said it was true again. Teacher Cai Guosheng endured it all the time at first, because no one wanted to offend his colleagues. Until this expert once again described the flower bottle that can be seen everywhere in the antique city as an official imitation official in the Kangxi period.

At this time, Cai Guosheng couldn’t bear it. He stood up and pointed to the expert named Huang, and asked him He Juxin. He pointed out that the Buddha statues in the morning were fake, and the ones in the afternoon were also fake. What are you going to do with this propaganda platform? What’s the ulterior motive. Then Mr. Cai Guosheng took off the headset, got up angrily and left. Later data showed that this appraising program was sponsored by a local collector. Although I don’t know what the purpose of this expert surnamed Huang is, there are indeed many experts who have made false appraisal results for their own benefit or for the benefit of others.

Because the appraisal is inherently risky, if there is a problem with the collection, the experts can also say something as an excuse, and it will have no effect on themselves. What do you think of this matter? Welcome to discuss together.

On June 9, Sina reported that the movie “Song The Charming Phi 3” aired received the love of the audience.

From the outside, it is easy to think that the building is made of wood, but Mr. Cuong – the owner of the house revealed that the material is completely from bricks and aluminum and glass. The house with Koi pond, waterfall, beautiful bonsai looks like stepping out of a picture. This is a gift from Mr. Cuong to a special classmate – also a companion wife, sharing with him the sweetness of life. “My wife and I were classmates, fell in love and then got married. She has always been a solid support for me to develop a successful career like today. The house is not simply a gift but also my sincere intention to my wife,” he confided. The garden was researched and made by Mr. Cuong himself. Mr. Cuong said that his wife likes Japanese house designs with bonsai gardens and feng shui lakes. This style is simple but comfortable, suitable for all families, from many generations to few people. However, the problem is that Japanese-style garden houses are often made from wood, and the cost is high. Moreover, society is now promoting afforestation, limiting deforestation and using natural wood. If using wood, it is against the general trend of the community. In addition, making wooden houses is not durable with the humid weather in the North of Vietnam, large maintenance costs… After many days of pondering, he flashed the idea of ​​​​using his own aluminum and glass business to build a house. The type of aluminum and glass he uses is characterized by the grain of walnut wood. No one would have thought that this elaborate garden house was made within a month. In the beginning of 2020, Hanoi social distancing due to the Covid-19 epidemic, he stayed at home, so he started to implement the plan. The foundation and frame of the house are built of bricks. Roof, interior, door made of 100% Eurovn high-grade aluminum with rosewood grain. Employees include 2 father and son, Mr. Cuong, 4 workers who both produce and make furniture. The garden was chosen and arranged by him. The project was completed within a month of starting work. The porch reads books and drinks Japanese-style tea. According to Mr. Cuong, although the project is not as beautiful as hiring an architect, it is the heart of the father and son, so they feel very proud. The total cost of the whole house is 1.5 billion VND, of which Eurovn high-grade aluminum materials for all doors and furniture is about 290 million VND. The floor he uses is imitation wood plastic flooring. The use of high-grade aluminum is more durable than wood, the service life can be up to 40-50 years. Spacious living room with kitchen and dining room. Homeowners use large aluminum and glass shelves and drawers to keep the house neat and uncluttered. The other sofa set also has a core of aluminum, glass and hardened steel. This material overcomes the disadvantages of sweating when it is hot, does not absorb heat, low maintenance costs, easy to repair, easy to clean. In the door part, homeowners use reflective glass doors and insulated vacuum box glass to reduce heat absorption into the house. “Compared to industrial wood cabinets, picomat plastic, using aluminum to make kitchen cabinets, utensils are much more durable and economical,” said Mr. Cuong. Aluminum and glass cabinets are as sophisticated as wood, bearing Japanese imprints through each design. The color is like real wood and the doors of the kitchen cabinets or wardrobes are not sagging or warped like ordinary wood, easy to clean, and not afraid of catching fire or burning. The bedroom has an area of ​​​​36m2, using high-grade aluminum with rosewood grain from doors, cabinets, shelves, beds, 3D aluminum ceilings. All materials are purchased locally. Aluminum and glass kitchen cabinets, stone countertops and precious ceramic display shelves. Doors, windows, plant pots are made of aluminum and glass, but they look like wood from afar. The bedroom is 36m2 wide with antique style. The bed is spacious, with cushions, connected to the dressing table into a block. The owner is a ceramic enthusiast, so there are display corners in the house. The wardrobe system has a ceiling, many compartments to help homeowners classify clothes easily.

The fruit cutting videos are still very interested by netizens. Also from here, a lot of “bad crying and laughing” stories attracted the attention of netizens. Recently, a clip recording the scene of a very large, ripe jackfruit fruit, still firmly clinging to the branch being cut by a farmer right on the tree, attracted the attention and lauanj of many netizens. The screen cut the jackfruit looks very eye-catching, but the observant people immediately saw a point and confirmed that this jackfruit was not delicious. Under the comment section, those who have experience in growing jackfruit trees confirm that this jackfruit has been over-watered, has a lot of rainwater, when it comes out so much water, it will be pale, fibrous, and less delicious. The jackfruit fruit growing low branches or in areas with a lot of rain often encounter this condition pale color and stagnant water. Perhaps the netizens’ prediction was right, the jackfruit is large but fibrous, the zone is small and hidden, the color is light. Basically, this is not a bad jackfruit but not really attractive enough to admire. Under the comments section, netizens expressed their condolences to the owner of the jackfruit, which was equally humorous: “I love you so much, I thought I was going to eat a big, delicious, sweet jackfruit… but again…” or “Looks like The tree waits for a few years to bear fruit, but who can’t wait to get it right away… I love you.” Previously on MXH, many times, netizens witnessed the matchmaking and the results made the owner really bitter. In many cases, because of the passion for food, when the green jackfruit fruit looked for a knife to supplement, the ending was extremely bitter. Looking at the color of jackfruit, netizens can easily predict whether this fruit is delicious or not.

Therefore, PSY constantly praised Song Joong Ki’s small face when he first met or Seo Kang Joon was chosen by Korean men as a model of plastic surgery. Seo Kang Joon has a slim face, monolid eyes but big round, wet with a rare light brown color, a bright, friendly smile. Male idols in Korea are especially fond of makeup, although this issue is controversial many times. The audience thinks that they are more and more feminine and trendy. Men’s beauty standards change Posts on Allure At the end of 2020, the image of K-pop star Yang Joon Il performed on stage with a sleeveless black jumpsuit, oversized shirt, printed with motifs. The 22-year-old singer danced freely, tossing his felt hat over his head and quickly grabbing the microphone. With white skin, small face, fragile beauty, Yang Joon Il shines on stage. But it was 1991. Yang Joon Il’s ostentatious and outward beauty caused outrage, the audience booed. Some even threw food at him. An article by The Korea Times said, “Yang Joon Il is hated by many people because of his unusual appearance and song. Yang Joon Il’s feminine aesthetic and style are so controversial that, the male singer said he was denied visa extension by the government. In the end, his career came to an end.” Nearly three decades later, Korea has changed. This place becomes the focus of beauty and men in general, Kpop idols are “loyal” to cosmetics. According to the results of Mintel’s report in 2017, Korea consumes 13 billion USD of cosmetics annually. Seo Kang Joon’s face matches Korean male beauty standards. About three-quarters of South Korean men perform beauty or grooming treatments (from salon hair care to at-home facials) at least once a week, according to a GlobalData survey. This number is even higher for Generation Z. 58% of those born after 2000 say they pamper themselves with beauty treatments or at least a long-term care regimen. once per week. Over the past decade, Korean men have become the world’s top spenders on skin care. The number of Korean men taking care of their faces increased by 44% between 2011 and 2017. According to Roald Maliangkay, director of the Korea Institute at the Australian National University, this phenomenon can be partly explained by the influence of K-pop. “I’m impressed by a lot of young Korean men who are emulating the typical male idol looks,” Roald Maliangkay told. Allure after a visit to the downtown area of ​​Seoul. “I see many men in short clothes with perfectly groomed, light-dyed hair, monolids (due to plastic surgery). I even noticed a few people wearing light makeup,” he said. continue talking. According to James Turnbull, a writer and lecturer in the city of Busan, in addition to the influence of celebrities, the fact that Korean men care about their appearance can also stem from competitive pressure in the harsh job market. “In this harsh environment, all men in their 20s and 30s want to improve their ‘stats’ with degrees, courses, internships, English proficiency and even looks. Korean companies often ask candidates to take photos in their resumes,” said James Turnbull. Song Joong Ki is loved for his small face. Makeup culture is different from world male stars James Turnbull pointed out that the job market of the entertainment industry is even more fierce than many other professions. When singers, actors, especially idols, not only live by talent but appearance is also important, so makeup has also become more popular. Kim Young Hu – a music producer who used to work with SM Entertainment and composed songs for f(x), SHINee – shared with Allure 1990s was the beginning of visual beauty in Kpop. There, teen boy bands started to apply makeup but did not focus on building their own style as today. Kim Young Hu emphasized today, beauty is a requirement. Most boy groups are carefully selected by management companies from their looks, talents to fashion styles. Each boy group usually has members who take on the role of visual (the most handsome in the group). Of course, they are usually people who fit Korea’s strict beauty standards, such as white skin, small faces, balanced facial features with a V-shaped jaw, big double eyelids, and bridge of the nose. tall and straight eyebrows… Such singers often stand in the most prominent center position in the performance, advertising image or when participating in an event with a group. They are also the ones most promoted by the entertainment company as if they were the face of the group. Yang Huiyeon, a makeup artist for K-pop idol groups like Pentagon, agrees. She explained, “Thanks to the growth of the Internet and the advent of video formats, K-pop stars have to put more effort into aesthetics. Men realize that if they start wearing makeup, they will look more dashing and confident.” Kevin Woo – a former member of the second generation idol group U-KISS – said that he suffered from culture shock when he traveled from San Francisco to Seoul in 2008. He first saw men using BB cream (PV) : BB cream stands for Blemish Balm, often used instead of foundation in the makeup process). Kpop prefers male idols with small faces. “I was confused by how Koreans define masculinity. I remember growing up in America, most male TV stars were very masculine, muscular, and bearded. Korean male stars are almost the opposite. The ideal Korean man is more feminine, has a slim body and wears makeup,” he said. Kevin Woo describes him and the U-KISS members as always wearing heavy makeup, thick foundation, and eyeliner. “When we first debuted, the group’s outfits were flashy. We wore a lot of accessories and the members sometimes looked like they came out of an anime. The trend now is for idols to look like one. the ideal boyfriend that fans want to date,” Kevin expressed. According to Kevin Woo, male singers are now often loved for their bright, delicate, youthful appearance and the highlight is plump, shiny skin. That concept has now spread throughout the Korean entertainment market. The members of BTS are a prime example of not being shy about bright eyeshadow makeup, pastel hairdos, and skin care. “Makeup is not just for women. Men can also feel more masculine in their own right when it comes to makeup. With K-pop becoming a global focus, male singers are really changing the world’s view of men’s makeup. I am very proud to be a part of them,” said Kevin Woo.

Elephant Mammoth Columbia Voi Extinction time: 11,500 years ago Living area: America and Mexico Illustration. Elephant Mammoth, you probably already know. They are huge, have long fur and a pair of huge tusks. They appear in many pictures, documentaries, movies. However, here we are talking about the Columbian Mammoth elephant, which is a relative of the long-haired but larger Mammoth. A Mammoth Columbia can be from 3.7 to 4.2m tall, weighing from 5.5 to 11 tons. Their tusks average 3.7m long, the largest of the elephant family and extremely strong, used to handle any carnivores that dare to come close. Prehistoric people, of course. Lazy land Extinction time: 4200 years ago Living area: South America The sloth is a lovely, harmless creature. The Megatherium is also a sloth, but it’s not like the slow, bully sloths you’re used to seeing. Megatherium also does not live on trees, because no tree can withstand its huge body. Megatherium has several subspecies, the smallest species is as big as a rhinoceros, and the largest can weigh up to 4-5 tons when mature, equivalent to modern African elephants. They can be up to 6m tall, similar to giraffes when standing on 2 legs. In addition, they also have a set of super-large claws used to slap the mouth of any carnivore. The ground sloth finally lived peacefully on the islands of the Caribbean, until about 4200 years ago, when the “species that everyone should fear” set foot and drew an end to the sloths walking on the face. land. Orangutan Gigantopithecus Extinction time: 100,000 years ago Living area: Mainly in Southeast Asia Gigantopithecus was a close relative of modern orangutans but was much larger. They can be 3m tall, weigh up to half a ton and are the most massive primates that have ever walked the Earth. If you need a clearer picture to visualize the size of a Gigantopithecus, check out the cute giant orangutan in The Jungle Book. But that’s in the movies, who knew what such a huge beast could do to a small human? Gigantopithecus went extinct with the main cause not being human. The fact that they are large also means that they need a lot of food to survive. However, about 100,000 years before the climate changed and the forests of their homeland – Southeast Asia – became savanna, Gigantopithecus simply “flies” because there is not enough food. Cave hyena Extinction time: 11,000-13,000 years ago Living area: Europe If you often watch documentaries about wildlife in Africa, such as the Diary of the Cat Family, you are probably familiar with spotted hyenas. These guys have a lot of bad reputations. They are cunning, reckless, attack in herds, scavenge for prey of other species such as leopards and lions or even enter villages to capture children. However, spotted hyenas are still not comparable to their ancient relatives – the cave hyena. Cave hyenas were twice the size of modern spotted hyenas, weighing on average 130kg, 90cm high and 1.5m long. They have extremely strong jaws, enough to chew the bones of their prey. Calculations based on fossils show that a cave hyena can easily kill a small elephant weighing about 1 ton. But that’s not enough to say how scary they are. They still live in groups of about 30 to help hunt more effectively. However, with our ancestors, they are not easy to touch. Cave hyenas became extinct somewhere between 11,000 and 13,000 years ago. The main cause is believed by paleontologists to be that prehistoric people took the caves for shelter during the Ice Age. Sword tooth tiger Extinction time: 10,000 years ago Living area: All Americas The saber-toothed tiger sounds like that, but in fact, they don’t have a close family to the tiger. Most saber-toothed tigers became extinct before modern humans appeared. However, there are still a few that can encounter humans, such as Smilodon populator and Smilodon fatalis. In which, Smilodon fatalis is as big as an African lion, and Smilodon populator is bigger, as big as a Siberian tiger (about 350kg). According to the calculations of paleontologists, saber-toothed tigers have rather weak jaws, the bite force is only about 1/3 of that of modern lions. However, in return, they have other things. In addition to their trademark long fangs, saber-toothed tigers also have extremely muscular forelimbs, the strongest of the cat family to assist in capturing prey before slicing its throat with long scythe-like fangs. Another theory is that they can use these fangs as knives to “skewer” their prey to death. But no matter how they killed their prey, a prehistoric human would surely explode if caught by it.

Shirako is the common name of a Japanese specialty dish made from the sperm sacs of cod and some other marine fish. In other words, it is the male fish testicle. Usually served with rice or eaten separately in a deep-fried way, shirako is really popular in Japan. Especially Japanese men, with the belief that “you can eat whatever you eat”, they love this dish from fish testicles with soft texture and mild fatty flavor with a hint of the sea. There are many people who are averse to this Japanese specialty dish and the initial feeling when tasting a piece of shiroka will certainly be a bit creepy, but after that, most people will be conquered by the unique taste of shiroka. instant food. According to many culinary experts, the taste and texture of shirako resembles melted cream cheese. Many people who are used to eating shirako will choose to eat it raw, with green onions and lemon, and dipping sauce. The taste is soft like butter, a bit fishy and salty but not too thick, this dish attracts right from the first bite. However, for many newcomers who want to enjoy this specialty dish, this is not an ideal choice. Should choose shirako added to soups and some other dishes or cooked with kimchi mushrooms, radish. Thus, the light fishy taste of shirako will help the dishes have more emphasis and uniqueness. The ingredients commonly used by the Japanese for this dish are the testicles of cod and puffer fish. In particular, cod testicles are the most popular because the taste of this fish makes the dish more complete. Puffer fish was also chosen because it is an easy fish to find and is popular in Japan. Another small note is that if you want to enjoy this dish with the most perfect taste, choose the winter time, around December. At this time, the cod and puffer fish come to the breeding period, so the quality of the crystal is high. Complete is also better.

Ho Van Lang in October 2020 when he was still healthy. Photo: Nguyen Ngoc In 1972, panicking after a bomb dropped on his village, Ho Van Thanh (born in 1932) took his eldest son, Ho Van Lang, who was not yet 3 years old, and left the village in Tra Phong commune, Tra Bong district. , Quang Ngai province left in the deep forest to shelter, living separately from the community. For more than 40 years living separately in the deep forest, the two “forest people” only know how to be friends with birds, plants and wild animals. They live in a house like a bird’s nest on the trunk of a big old tree, use dried bark and leaves to cover themselves, and eat fruits, tapioca, corn, and wild vegetables to live. In 2013, local people discovered that the father and son “forest people” should report to the local government to organize a search and bring them back to integrate into the community. During the days when he returned to the village, Mr. Thanh crouched and hugged the nostalgia for the forest until his death. And Ho Van Lang is living with his younger brother’s family, Mr. Ho Van Tri, in a house built by benefactors. “Forest man” far from the forest After 8 years of leaving the deep forest to return to the old village, “forest man” Ho Van Lang gradually became familiar with everything. The 50-year-old man knew how to make a living, take care of himself, and cook for himself every day. Every day, when the sun had not yet risen, Lang carried a basket to the fields as a habit. In the afternoon, he returned home and did not forget to bring a bunch of bananas planted by himself in Tra Nga village, Tra Phong commune to sell to traders. Although, it takes more than 3 hours to walk to and from back. “Forest man” Ho Van Lang was brought back from the deep forest to the community in 2013. Photo: TL Whoever he met, he also smiled. Mr. Lang loves to chat, play with the children and see everyone in the village as a family. Unlike many men in the village, Mr. Lang does not drink alcohol or smoke but is “addicted” to betel nut. In October 2020, during a business trip in the mountains, we accidentally met “forest man” Ho Van Lang. At that time, Mr. Lang was still very healthy. The work of farming and growing agricultural products makes him happy every day. But after more than 7 months of returning, unfortunately, “forest people” no longer go to the forest, but just hang around in the kitchen corner. His eyes are still towards the mountain, but his legs are no longer strong enough to climb the pass, wade the stream. In the late afternoon, Mr. Ho Van Tri, Mr. Lang’s younger brother, sat by the fire, cooking medicine for his brother to drink. The light woven through the bamboo slats into the kitchen, making the green veins visible on the weak hands of the “forest man”. His hand still holds a bag of betel nut, his hobby is making his teeth black. However, the carefree smile of the “forest man” is now gone, replaced by a sigh when the pain strikes. Mr. Ho Van Tri said that, after the Lunar New Year, Mr. Lang felt pain in the abdomen. The pain increases with increasing frequency. All day, he hugged his stomach lying down, his body lost nearly 10 kg, his health was getting worse and worse. Feeling worried, Mr. Tri gathered all the little money he had accumulated to bring Mr. Lang to the city. Quang Ngai medical examination. Doctors diagnosed Mr. Lang with liver cancer. For Mr. Lang, liver cancer is simply pain in the abdomen. But for Mr. Tri, he knew it was a cruel disease, causing people to face death. However, in order to be more certain about Mr. Lang’s condition, Mr. Tri took his brother to Da Nang for a check-up. Here, the doctors have the same diagnosis as in Quang Ngai. Mr. Tri quietly took Mr. Lang home to take care of him. Since then, Mr. Lang only knows how to hang around the house, his eyes looking towards the mountain, no one knows what the “forest man” is thinking in the bottom of his heart. In the corner of the kitchen, “forest man” Ho Van Lang sighed softly when the pain hit. Mr. Lang knows pain, but he doesn’t know what cancer is? All worries now weigh on the shoulders of younger brother Ho Van Tri. Dear quartet Leaving the old forest, it seemed that life had turned to a new turning point, but fate still pushed the “forest man” into twists and turns like it used to push him into the path between the mountains and the forest and lived with his father for 40 years. continuously. In 2017, Mr. Ho Van Thanh, Lang’s father passed away, he received the pain with sad eyes. He tried so hard to forget, but now he is burdened with the terrible liver cancer that is tearing his body every day. Mr. Ho Van Lang still suffers from the pain of knitting agricultural tools to earn a living. Photo: Nguyen Ngoc Tra Nga village is very sunny this season. In the afternoon, the sun was dim again, the rain was about to pour. The weather in the mountainous region changes rapidly and is far from the plain. The same is true of Lang’s treatment. His brother’s cancer is being treated by Mr. Tri by “bowing to the four directions”. Not having enough money for Western medicine treatment, Mr. Tri once took Mr. Lang over 90 km to find a Oriental medicine doctor in Binh Son district. However, what drugs are enough to prevent disease? Even more pain came. “Forest man” hugs his stomach, crouching… Mr. Tri can only rely on his ancestors to go to the forest to find herbs, mainly apricots, to cook for his brother to relieve pain. “Since Lang got sick, I have offered nearly 10 times, 8 chickens each time. The cost is up to nearly 20 million VND. The house did not have money, I borrowed the shopkeepers in the neighborhood and then sold bananas, rattan trees … to reduce debt, “said Mr. Tri. Many times looking at his brother in pain, Tri felt heartbroken but didn’t know what to do. He also finds it difficult to understand because Mr. Lang has lived almost half of his life in the forest, why is he suffering from a serious disease at this time. “Fortunately, Mr. Lang is quite optimistic when he cannot understand the cancer he is suffering. Every time the pain eases, Mr. Lang sits and weaves baskets and nia with forest fibers and sells them to people in the village. Even though I told him to rest, Mr. Lang still didn’t stop working,” Mr. Tri said. Now, Mr. Tri just wants to have more money, feed his brother delicious meals, and enjoy life with the rest of the meager days. That idyllic wish seems difficult when looking in the corner of the kitchen, there is nothing but plants cooked for “forest people” to drink every day. Mr. Lang has cancer, Mr. Tri only knows how to cling to the forest to earn money to take care of him and his family members. But now, Mr. Tri is also suffering from a serious stomach disease. With many difficulties, he clings to the house of gratitude that many people contributed to build for Mr. Lang when he returned from the forest. Now, only miracles can help Lang recover from his illness. The “Forest Man” has stopped going to the forest, an uncertain future awaits him, although the village road is still much wider and straighter than the mountain trails that have been associated with Mr. Lang for more than half of his life. Mr. Dang Minh Thao, Secretary of Tra Bong District Party Committee, said that the District Party Committee had just coordinated with mass organizations to visit and give 3.7 million VND to support Mr. Ho Van Lang. Mr. Ho Van Lang’s family is extremely difficult, and his health is very weak. The District Party Committee is calling for organizations and individuals to support Mr. Lang’s family. In addition, he also directed local authorities to monitor health developments and provide maximum support for Mr. Lang.

Day after day after school, he used a hoe to expand his cave bit by bit. The speed of “construction” increased dramatically after Canto invited another friend to bring a pneumatic drill, and together they created an extremely unique 3 meter deep cave. The way down to the cave. Accordingly, this cave also looks quite “cool” when it has a living room, bedroom with heating, Wi-Fi network and music system. Canto said he reinforced the roof and walls of the cave with concrete and columns to prevent collapse. The total cost of buying the necessary building materials for this “project” only costs about 60 USD (about 1.4 million VND), Canto revealed. Inside the cave of the Spaniard. Occasionally, his cave also has a bit of trouble dealing with floods and is often visited by insects, spiders and snails. However, the amateur builder is not too concerned about these “uninvited friends” and shares: “There is no problem. Since I have invaded their home, I will have them build a new house on my wall.” A post about Canto’s “dwelling” on social media caught the attention of local officials. After that, the government sent inspectors to Canto’s house to check the strength and safety of the cave. Andres Canto in his cave. Although he doesn’t live all day in the cave, Canto spends a lot of his free time down there. His parents also did not show any objection to the son’s work. Canto said his mother watched the video of the cave and went down to see it herself: “My mother went down there too and said it was smaller than the one in the video.” With this unique idea, if at any time you intend to leave home because you are angry with your parents, but you are afraid of ghosts and dark, Canto has a place to stay… temporarily!

Part of this 58-year-old male patient’s vision has been restored, allowing him to recognize, count, locate and touch various objects displayed on the table in front of him. (Photo: New York Times) According to research results published on May 24, scientists in Europe and the US have applied optical genetic engineering to treat a patient who lost vision due to an inherited disease of photoreceptors. 40 years ago. This involves injecting them directly into the patient’s eye, combined with stimulation for several months by wearing light-emitting glasses, which convert images into pulses of light printed onto the retina. A 58-year-old blind man was able to partially restore vision in one eye with the help of a breakthrough treatment using genetic engineering and light-activated therapy. The patient, who lives in France, was diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa (RP), a degenerative eye disease that affects the retina at the back of the eye and causes it to stop working, almost 40 years ago. year. However, several months after the treatment, he was able to recognize, count, locate and touch various objects with the treated eye while wearing a pair of light-stimulating glasses. The researchers say that although their findings, published in the journal Nature Medicine, are still in the early stages, their work could be seen as a stepping stone to targeted treatments. new target for people with RP (RP – a condition in which the cells in the retina that receive light are disrupted, which can lead to total blindness). It is the most common inherited eye condition, affecting around 1 in 4,000 people in the UK. The researchers used a technique, called photogenetics, to genetically alter cells in the retina so that they produce light-sensitive proteins called channelrhodopsin. The treatment, which is done by injecting an eye into one eye, activates the gene that codes for a channelrhodopsin protein called ChrimsonR, which senses amber light. The team also developed specialized goggles equipped with a camera to capture and project visual images onto the retina at amber wavelengths of light. The patient then trained for several months as the genetically engineered cells began to stabilize. Seven months later, the patient began to show signs of improvement in vision, the researchers said. The team also said their patients were “excited” after this first experience of partial vision. With the aid of the light-stimulating glasses, the patient was able to locate, recognize, touch and count objects such as notebooks, pin boxes and glasses on a white table in front of him. The researchers also read the patients’ brain activity using a technique known as an electroencephalogram. A tortoise is alternately raised or removed from the table, and the patient must press a button to indicate whether it is there or not. The results from the experiments show that patients can recognize with 78% accuracy. Although this type of optical genetic therapy may be beneficial in restoring visual function in people with RP-related blindness, more results from this trial are needed, the researchers say. clearer picture of the safety and effectiveness of this approach. José-Alain Sahel, lead author of the study from France’s Sorbonne University and the National Center for Scientific Research, said: “It is important that blind patients suffer from various types of neurodegenerative diseases. and functional optic nerve would likely qualify for treatment. However, the effectiveness of the treatment depends on the extent of the patient’s optic nerve degeneration. He said it will take more time to study this method before it can be put into practice.

A man named Ken invited two close friends to a deserted island far from the city and lived on his own for a month. Their purpose is to hide from the epidemic and explore the wild life like Robinson. Ken and his two best friends on a deserted island. Before landing on the deserted island, the 3 people prepared many tools including fishing rod, hoe, shovel, saw, tent, kitchen tools, spices and solar panels. They also carefully bought a live chicken in case they didn’t catch fish as soon as they got on the island. Arriving on a deserted island, the three of them set up their own tents, found a way to make a fire, every day went to the sea to catch grilled fish to eat, and even went to find hot water sources for a relaxing dip. When they feel bored, they find ways to entertain themselves, like exercising with weights made of driftwood, rocks, and rope. Or more simply, they blindfolded the type of fish they caught. The group of three work together to survive on the deserted island. Sometimes the group also encounters unexpected situations, such as the tent blowing up because of the strong wind, the mobile phone being soaked in water, unable to communicate. After living in the wild for a while, the three men returned to the mainland smoothly. Ken shares with everyone about his “Robinson experience”. He said the pristine life on the island gives him a feeling of excitement and eliminates the fear of contracting COVID-19, a feeling that is not possible in the city of Tokyo. Ken hopes that after the pandemic is over, he can return to the deserted island again and continue the adventure with more friends.

Jack Heathcote turned the house into a giant aquarium Jack Heathcote, 47, of Nottingham, England has completely transformed his home with a network of nine super-sized aquariums, including one in a cellar, 2.1 meters deep. Jack does not have a TV set up in the house because he just likes to watch his fish swim. Jack can watch his pet fish swim for ‘hours’ instead of watching TV. The man said: “I can watch the fish swim, interact with them for hours. It’s so relaxing.” Jack first became interested in fish when he was 10 years old. His parents took him to visit an aquarium in Blackpool and he came home with a pet goldfish. 37 years later, Jack decided to spend a whopping £20,000 to convert his Nottingham home into a giant aquarium. Jack used three walls of the cellar to create a 4.2 meter x 3.6 meter tank, 2.1 meters deep and holds 18 cubic meters of water. The giant tank is home to 50 assorted fish he caught in a canal, and four giant mirror carp. There are two more tanks in the cellar, as well as other tanks in the living room, hallway, and shed. Upstairs, there are several tanks in Jack’s bedroom connected by a tunnel. Jack is extremely interested in his unusual house and pets. He said: “Fish are not like other animals because they are always moving. My friends think they are great. They often sit with me on the sofa to watch fish swim, just like other people like to watch TV. vi so”. For fish enthusiasts like Jack Heathcote, it will be very suitable for the portable fish bag product of a Japanese company. The Japanese company’s creation allows aquarium owners to comfortably take their pets out on the street. The ‘katsugyo bag’, a portable aquarium shaped like a long tube with a transparent center, has a handle, and a gauge that monitors the oxygen levels in the water. The company explains that: “You can take the fish away so it’s relatively easy to use. It can provide oxygen and maintain the water temperature the whole time you’re out.” Transparent design, the fish bag is really helpful to calm the fish’s anxiety, provide the fish with a safe, breathable and comfortable environment, suitable for small or medium fish.

Frank, whose full name is Francesco Lentini, was born on May 18, 1889 in Rosolini, Sicily (Italy). He is the 5th child in a family of 12 children. Although later known as the “Three-legged Man”, Frank actually had a few extra body parts. In addition to a full-sized third leg, extending from his right hip, he has another foot that protrudes from the knee of this leg and a second male genitalia. At 4 months old, Frank’s parents took their son to a specialist to determine the possibility of amputating his third leg. However, after careful examination, the doctor said that Frank’s condition was actually due to the phenomenon of parasitic twins. While still a fetus, his body “received” a part of the other twin. That’s why inside the Lentini there is a spine, but the pelvis and genitals, legs grow separately. His third leg was attached to his spine, and if removed, there is a risk of paralysis or even death. Frank’s appearance surprised everyone. Neighbors nicknamed him “u maravigghiusu” which means “weird” and “little monster”. Due to the stigma surrounding people, he was sent by his parents to live with his aunt and uncle. In time, these relatives took Frank to a home to raise children with disabilities. The boy noticed that the deaf, blind, and physically deformed children here did not complain about their defects. Frank then expressed: “Before, I thought I was the most unlucky person. But when I was at an orphanage for children with disabilities, I understood that there are many more unhappy people in the world than me. So life isn’t as bad as I thought it would be.” Gradually, Frank Lentini adapted to his abnormal body. He couldn’t walk on his extra leg, but later learned to straighten it. Frank practiced running, jumping, biking, rollerblading, even swimming. He said the extra leg gave him an advantage when in the water, it acted as a rudder. Frank Lentini completed the program until the end of 8th grade with the help of Giovannina Brogato, an Italian-born tutor. The star in the circus Frank Letini – the three-legged man. A wandering puppeteer named Vincenzo Magnano discovered the boy Frank. He convinces Frank’s parents, their son can become a star in the circus. Frank’s parents accepted their son to come to America. First, Frank toured with the Ringling Brothers, then he went to Bridgeport, Connecticut, the winter headquarters of the Barnum & Bailey Circus. At the time, the circus had a three-legged man, George Lippert, born in Germany. But Frank quickly eclipsed Lippert in terms of his performances. Posters call him “The Three-Legged Sicilian,” “The Greatest Medical Wonder of All Time,” or just “The Great Lentini.” When Frank Lentini joined the circus, he quickly became one of America’s most popular supporting artists, along with “The Bearded Lady,” “General Tom Thumb” and “Elephant Man.” Today, we view the display of people with physical disabilities as exploitation. But at that time, the circus gave Frank and the other supporting actors not only the opportunity to earn a living, but also become celebrities. As an adult, Frank Lentini weighs 80kg and is 169cm tall. He claims his extra body parts weigh between 10 and 13kg and often jokes that he ate 15% more food to fuel the appendages. On stage, Frank shows off his unique body and shows off his talents. He considers himself to be the only man in the world who doesn’t need his own chair and sits on his third leg as if he were sitting on a stool. His standout performance was kicking the ball with his third foot into the crowd. Frank also possesses a charming personality and quick wits. During his performance with a Q&A session, many curious fans asked about living with a third leg. When asked how to buy shoes, Frank replied: “I bought two pairs and gave the left shoe to a friend who is amputee. So you see, every time I buy a pair of shoes, I actually do a good deed!”. Life and career Frank Letini on a poster at a circus. In 1907, when Frank was 18 years old, he married a Massachusetts woman named Theresa Murray. They have four children, all healthy. At the shows, Frank sold a six-page pamphlet that tells his life story and gives advice for a healthy sex life. In this book, Frank advises pregnant women about a proper diet. He condemned adultery and promiscuity. He also discusses the causes and treatment of sexual dysfunction, among other topics. During his career, Frank toured with major circuses and became an American citizen at the age of 30. In 1935, Frank and Theresa separated. He lived with another woman named Helen Shupe for the rest of his life. His career spanned more than 40 years, until the end of his life he did not stop acting. In 1966, while touring with the Walter Wanous Side Show, Frank was hospitalized in Jackson, Tennessee. On September 21, 1966, Frank Lentini died of lung failure at the age of 77. In 2016, 50 years after his death, Lentini’s hometown of Rosolini in Sicily held a two-day celebration of their hometown’s special someone. In this memorial ceremony, many descendants of Frank near and far were also invited to attend.

Feng shui expert Phung Phuong warns that in the house there are 4 things that must be more precious than gold, do not be foolish to give it to anyone lest you bring fortune to your hand. Used wallets Even if the wallet is still healthy and no longer used, you should not give it to others. This is a feng shui object that symbolizes money, giving it is like giving your fortune to others. User idols Many people think that bringing the God of Wealth to friends on the day of opening or opening a business will make them prosper, trade and sell expensive, money comes in like water.

Aquarium Some people, after receiving the gift of a fish tank, felt that fortune was not favorable, so they invited a feng shui expert to see. It turned out that they didn’t know that fish tanks like “Gods of Fortune” could not be given as gifts. There are some people who are hydrophobic or afraid of fish farming, so giving an aquarium is no different from harming the person receiving the gift. The location of the fish tank is also very important, requiring the guidance of a feng shui expert. Sharp thing Sharp objects such as knives, swords, scissors … according to feng shui will bring bad points, cut off good relationships or bring dangers to the recipient. If you want to give a beautiful and valuable knife or scissors as a unique souvenir, you should tell the recipient in advance. Then ask them to give you change or small coin, as if they paid for the item themselves. This is a folk trick to avoid the bad luck of the gift. Sharp objects should only be given as souvenirs, used as souvenirs for birthdays, birthdays or weddings. In addition to the above 4 objects, there are many other great taboo objects according to folk beliefs that should not be given or given to others. Because even if your property is good, your mind is impartial, but it is not by chance that grandparents draw it like that, so having taboo is still better than you! * Information is for reference only

“I agree that vulnerable people want to wear masks as a precaution, but that’s their own choice,” Andrew said. When someone asked why he didn’t wear them when he went to public places such as supermarkets, subways, he lied, “I am exempt from wearing masks”. Many men refuse to wear masks because they consider it a sign of lack of masculinity and weakness. Photo: Cottonbro / Pexels. According to the The Independent Wearing a mask is the most important method to prevent the virus from spreading. The World Health Organization has been urging people to wear masks since June 2020, a scientific review published in July of the same year in the Journal of the American Medical Association described it as “an important important” in the fight against Covid-19. However, the disturbing fact is that there is a large number of people who refuse to wear masks like Andrew, the majority of which are men. A survey of 2,459 people in the US conducted by two academics at Middlesex University (London) and the University of Berkeley (California, USA) in May 2020 found that men are not only less likely to wear masks in public places. women, many of whom even consider wearing them “embarrassing, uncomfortable and a sign of weakness”. “Wearing a mask is a sign of weakness” Even when he tested positive for Covid-19 and had to be hospitalized, former US President Donald Trump still wanted to show that he did not need a mask, he took it off while standing on the steps of the White House after returning from the hospital. institute. “I don’t wear a mask like him. Standing a few dozen meters away, he was still wearing the biggest mask I’ve ever seen,” Trump said of President Joe Biden during the September 2020 debate. Trump seems to be implying that not wearing a mask means he is showing overwhelming strength against his opponent. Many men believe that only vulnerable people need to wear masks. Photo: Rex Features. A study conducted by the Kaiser Family Foundation, an American NGO that focuses on public health issues, found that 68% of women regularly wear masks when leaving the house, this number in men is 49%. Emma Lygnerud Boberg, gender and program development consultant at International Media Support (Denmark), said: “This is a trend that we have seen before, where men appear to be reluctant to adopt measures. preventive measures than women”. She further notes that this is also consistent with other data, like men wearing seat belts less often than women. Peter Glick, an expert at Lawrence University in Wisconsin, says that men seem willing to take greater risks in everyday life, and that there are toxic gender stereotypes that force men to flex their muscles and fear. hurt. “Men are socialized to be dominant and independent. All these characteristics are intended to reinforce patriarchal norms that present masculinity as a performance. Wearing a mask can be interpreted as It shows weakness in some men. It shows that they are openly afraid of this virus, which means breaking courage,” he told The Independent. Toxic gender stereotypes Preliminary research by James Mahalik, Boston College professor of Developmental Educational Psychology, and doctoral fellows Michael Di Bianca and Michael Harris suggests that individualist tendencies and skepticism toward science Education can be directly related to whether or not a person will accept wearing a mask. To find out why some men refused to wear masks, Mahalik surveyed 596 men across 49 states, of various ages, with incomes ranging from less than $10,000 a year to more than $200,000 a year. The survey asked each person to rate whether they identified certain masculinity standards and to express their thoughts on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations to minimize sexual harassment. spread of Covid-19. Toxic gender stereotypes are part of the reason some men don’t want to wear masks. In general, respondents felt positive about the Covid-19 prevention guidelines and said they adhered to them (since this was self-provided data, the researchers could not confirm that they actually wear masks all the time). Men who hold negative views on public health recommendations, such as social distancing and wearing face masks, also have traditional masculinity ideals revolving around emotional control, self-reliance, unity, and self-reliance. dominance, victory, power over women, and heterosexual self-expression. “We found that media masculinity saw less benefit from following CDC guidelines. They see more barriers, less trust in science, and they have less empathy for vulnerable or high-risk people,” Mahalik told Fast Company. Instead of trying to convince masculine men to change core elements of their identities, public health officials might consider reducing individualism in men by focusing on more socially friendly aspects of traditional masculinity.

Damien Desroche raises 60,000 snails to make soap and sell it on the market It is hard to imagine but snail saliva is used to remove wrinkles and acne scars and is trusted by many women. In the hands of 28-year-old Damien Desrocher is a slimy, sticky, frothy, drool from thousands of snails he keeps in a large dragonfly in his backyard. Born and raised in the town of Wahagnies, in northern France, Damien Desrocher began using the greasy drool many feared to make soap and sell it in local markets. In order to get a lot of snail drool, the 28-year-old man had to think of many and extremely ingenious ways not to harm or kill any snails. Damien Desrocher said: “I just touched it with my finger, very light and not violent. It looks very simple, the whole process depends on your ingenuity.” Soap bars made from snail slime made by Damien Desrocher Formerly a computer technician working for the Air Force, Damien Desrocher decided to start raising snails in his hometown because he wanted to enjoy life back to nature. “Once you watch every move of snails, you find them really adorable. It’s my favorite animal,” Damien Desrocher said. Currently, Damien Desrocher has a total of about 60,000 snails. When they enter the breeding period, he will move to a larger site, in his yard with only about 4,000 of them. On the feet of snails there is a type of gland that can secrete a very sticky fluid to help them crawl, so every place they crawl through leaves a sticky residue. After this sticky fluid dried, a sparkling watery streak was formed. One snail will produce about 2 grams of slime, while to make 15 100-gram Damien Desrocher bars of soap requires about 80 grams of snail saliva. It only takes about 40 snails to make 15 100-gram bars of soap. Business is quite favorable, so Damien Desrocher needs to raise a lot of snails. So far, snail slime is quite famous in the western cosmetics industry for its surprisingly smooth skin, but recently it has become one of the more popular finished products in some other countries such as Korea. The mucus secreted by snails contains a powerful antioxidant, known for its anti-aging properties. According to Damien Desrocher, slime contains collagen and elastin molecules, which have anti-aging and skin-restoring properties. The snail itself also uses the slime it secretes to repair the shell when damaged. In the first year of production, Damien Desrocher aims to produce about 3,000 soap bars from snail slime.

Iron horse moving on the street. Quietly in the middle of the crowded street In the past few days, on Cach Mang Thang Tam route, mixed with cars and motorbikes, there is a funny “iron horse”. The horse moves quite slowly, quietly, but almost everyone passing by has to look at it for a few moments because of the special difference. The horse has a rather odd shape, with its mane and head simply decorated with foam and wigs but very soulful. The body of the iron horse is an old buggy (like a bicycle with wheels and seats), with 2 wheels and a seat. However, the most noticeable highlight of this iron horse is the front legs. Because the rear legs are two stationary bicycle wheels that can rotate, the two front wheels are responsible for moving. In addition, the two sides of the horse’s head are two control bridles made from drawstrings that look very lively. To create a step for his iron horse, Mr. Hoang used a pulley made from an old chain (slug) and attached it to the pedal. Every time he stepped forward, the wheel would pull the horse’s legs to move forward. Although the chain rotates evenly, when moving the horse makes very smooth steps thanks to a bent shaft in the front. This is also the secret that took him many days to complete, after the idea of ​​this iron horse was rekindled. Thanks to his forward steps and rear wheel, his iron horse can not only move forward and backward, but can turn and stop if necessary. From a distance, his steed is nothing more than a real steed that we might have seen somewhere in old movies. To many people, this rudimentary iron carriage of Mr. Hoang is simply a toy because it moves slowly and with difficulty, but for its owner, this is a whole work of enthusiasm. “It took me almost two days to finish assembling and building this iron horse, but it took me half a year to come up with ideas and gather materials. During the day, I repair bicycles and motorbikes for customers, and in the evening I come back to collect bottles, so I have no money to buy the things I need. All the materials that make up this “horse” are old, damaged things that people throw away, I take it back. But it’s not what I need that people leave. Therefore, it took up to half a year to gather enough materials before assembling it,” said Mr. Hoang sincerely. According to the old man, he built this iron horse completely not because of “playing out” or wanting to express himself, but from the need to move. “Every day, repairing bicycles and motorbikes is enough to support myself. However, I am old, now I have to buy some medicine because my body has this disease or another disease. That’s why I still go to pick up scrap bottles on the street at night. To move more I thought this horse could help me. It can both move, and can carry even picked up items without difficulty getting up and down like a motorbike or bicycle. Hopefully this iron horse will stick with me for a long time, even though its equipment is quite old,” said Mr. Hoang. The poor artist As a native of Thanh Hoa, but because of his difficult living situation, Mr. Hoang has been living in Can Tho city for nearly 60 years, earning a living by various occupations. The hard years of living on the street did not lose his passion for invention, even if it was just simple and funny inventions. But they are no less unique. Before creating this iron horse, Mr. Hoang also created a rudimentary convertible with a red flag with a yellow star that surprised many people a year or two ago on the occasion of the country’s reunification day on April 30. . That 4-wheeler was also invented by him from scrap materials and used for a long time, surprising many people. He also said that, because he didn’t have a lot of money and materials, he often spent a lot of time thinking about the things he would invent. The purpose is to ensure both the needs and the free, you can do it yourself! Like this horse-drawn carriage, it only took him exactly 100 thousand dong to put the welder on the 2 front wheel joints of the horse’s legs with the pedal chain system. Turning a uniform circular motion into a folding motion (horse’s foot) is a difficult task, requiring a dedicated iron bar. Unique iron horse made from scrap. Many people living in Can Tho city were quite surprised to see his unique iron horse. Even many parents, when picking up their children from school when they were out of work, had to stop the car because the children were especially interested in the iron horse. In addition, Mr. Hoang also happily allowed boys, or even adults, to come close to take pictures and sit on this unique iron steed. Only thing is, because the mechanism of operation is quite difficult, apart from Mr. Hoang, it must be very difficult for strangers to control the horse, but it is not as easy as other rudimentary means. In addition to his passion for inventions, Mr. Hoang also has another passion: looking at the red flag with the yellow star. He said that it is the national flag, which is sacred to every Vietnamese child, so in all his inventions or objects, there are flags with fresh colors. The city was pouring into the afternoon, Mr. Hoang began to prepare to go with his iron horse through familiar routes. Looking at him and the horse and strangers, both familiar, old, and nostalgic, he couldn’t help but sigh. I don’t know at the age of 76, how long the other scrap iron horse will stick with him and wander around with him. Because the horse’s footsteps are also created from discarded things, which can be damaged at any time.

The software helps to record the thoughts in the brain into writing on the computer. The combination of mental effort and modern technology has allowed a motionless man (T5) to communicate by text at a speed comparable to that of healthy colleagues texting. on smartphone. Study participant (T5) almost lost all mobility below the neck because of a spinal cord injury in 2007. The scientists placed two brain-computer interface chips, each about the same size. an aspirin pill, on the left side of T5’s brain. Each chip has 100 electrodes that pick up signals from trigger neurons in the motor cortex, an area on the outermost surface of the brain that governs hand movements. Those neural signals are sent over wires to a computer, where artificial intelligence algorithms decode the signal and infer the T5’s intended hand and finger movements. Algorithms were designed in Stanford’s Neural Prosthetic Translation Lab. T5 generated text at a rate of about 18 words per minute (the average person can say about 23 words per minute on a smartphone). Even, T5 then reached a record of 40 characters per minute. The study was published online May 12, 2021 in the journal Nature. It offers hope to hundreds of thousands of Americans and millions around the globe, who have lost the ability to use their upper limbs or speak due to spinal cord injury, stroke or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
