Recently, Mob Research Institute released the 2021 Internet Medical Industry Insight Report. According to the report, as the policy of the Internet medical industry has changed from prudence to openness, the policy guarantee system has been continuously improved, which has stabilized the cornerstone of market expansion. The sudden new crown epidemic in 2020 has become an industry accelerator, and the market size is expected to exceed one trillion in 2025.

my country’s Internet medical treatment has a history of 20 years, and it is developing upward amidst twists and turns. Internet medical care leverages the epidemic to increase exposure, cultivate user habits, and press the accelerator key for industry development.

The report pointed out that my country’s high-quality medical resources are insufficient. The number of tertiary hospitals accounts for less than 10%, but they carry over 50% of the medical needs. The utilization rate of beds in tertiary hospitals exceeds 90%, while the utilization rate of beds in primary medical institutions is low. As the health literacy level of Chinese residents increases year by year, more and more people are concerned about their health needs. Faced with the problem of insufficient supply of high-quality medical resources, technologies such as the Internet and artificial intelligence connecting resources are expected to break the medical dilemma.

With the resonance of the black swan of the epidemic and favorable policies, the Internet medical industry has ushered in a golden growth period. In 2020, there will be frequent large-scale financing events in the Internet medical industry, and capital is generally optimistic. The report predicts that the scale of the Internet medical industry is expected to exceed one trillion yuan in 2025.

From the user survey, the report found that the proportion of Internet medical users in second-tier and above cities has decreased, and the proportion of third-tier cities and below has increased. The proportion of users in Guangdong far exceeds that of other provinces. Among medical e-commerce users, male participation is significantly higher than that of females; among registered consultation users, males and females account for the same proportion, but females have a higher preference. Young and middle-aged people are the main force in medical e-commerce and registered consultations. Young people aged 25-34 prefer online consultations, while middle-aged and elderly people over 45 are more willing to buy medicines online. From the perspective of industry development trends, the report believes that in the short term, the daily life of users during the 2020 Spring Festival will increase significantly, and user satisfaction will be high, which is conducive to the formation of user habits, and the traffic dividend is expected to continue. In the medium term, many pain points in the medical industry are waiting for artificial intelligence to provide new solutions, and AI may become the next prescription. In the long term, smart community medical care will help to form a hierarchical diagnosis and treatment of “first diagnosis at the grassroots level, two-way referral, linkage between upper and lower levels, and separate treatment for emergency and slowness”, and relieve medical pressure

Controversial herbicide glyphosate Checked and undesirable

As of: 23.06.2021 12:55 p.m.

A test report commissioned by the EU does not consider the weed killer glyphosate to be carcinogenic or dangerous to the genetic makeup. Nevertheless, the drug will probably disappear from the market in Europe.

From Michael Heussen, WDR

The specialist authorities from France, Sweden, Hungary and the Netherlands come to terms with glyphosate to a clear result : The pesticide is not carcinogenic, it does not damage the genetic material and it is neither dangerous for human organs nor for the hormonal balance. The four national authorities had assessed the safety of glyphosate on behalf of the European Commission on the basis of existing study results. You confirm the findings of test authorities around the world.

Nevertheless, it can be assumed that the drug will disappear from the market sooner or later. “Glyphosate is socially dead,” said a farmer official in the run-up to the farmers’ day in Berlin. The public had long since made its judgment – even with solid scientific arguments, the majority of consumers could not be convinced of the harmlessness of the substance. Since 2015, the judgment of the International Agency for Research on Cancer, which belongs to the World Health Organization (WHO), has been hovering over the evaluation process like a sword of Damocles: Glyphosate is “probably carcinogenic”.

“Very low probability”

It is hardly surprising that the glyphosate producer Bayer sees it differently and welcomes the positive study results that have now been published. The chemical giant, which with the US-American Monsanto group also took over its glyphosate-containing bestseller Roundup, also rejects another argument – that the herbicide threatens biodiversity.

“Evaluated scientific studies as well as publicly available research reports show only a very low probability that the proper use of glyphosate-containing pesticides has indirect effects on the biodiversity of most food chains,” says the company. For example, the effects on microorganisms living in the soil, worms, birds, pollinating insects such as honey bees, frogs and other amphibians as well as fish have been investigated, according to a Bayer spokesman. So could it happen that glyphosate may also be used in the European Union beyond the approval period that expires at the end of 2022? Much speaks against it.

Federal government expects glyphosate to be phased out by 2024

The Federal Environment Ministry, led by Svenja Schulze (SPD), firmly expects that no more glyphosate-containing pesticides may be used from January 1, 2024 at the latest after the end of the one-year transition period. “In agreement with the Federal Ministry of Agriculture, we continue to assume that the Federal Government (…) has decided to phase out glyphosate use in accordance with EU law,” it says WDR -Inquiry . About the corresponding amending regulation the Federal Council will decide next Friday. Until the end of the transition period, the application “may only take place if there are no alternative options, for example in the case of weeds that are difficult to control or areas at risk of erosion” – so it is in the voting proposal. Its use on areas that serve the general public, as well as in house and allotment gardens, is completely forbidden.

No further approval expected at EU level

Federal Minister of Agriculture Julia Klöckner (CDU) has also emphasized several times, a spokeswoman for her ministry told the WDR “It cannot be assumed that there will still be a majority after 2022 in favor of an extension of the glyphosate approval at EU level”.

In 2017, the dispute over glyphosate between the ministries almost led to a coalition crisis in Berlin. Because the former Agriculture Minister Christian Schmidt (CSU) voted “yes” in the responsible EU committee in Brussels , although the then Federal Environment Minister Barbara Hendricks (SPD) strictly against an extension of the approval for glyphosate was. The different evaluations of the current incumbents are not so obvious. But in the letters of reply to the questions of the WDR There are differences: “Glyphosate-containing pesticides are important for soil-conserving and water-saving cultivation of arable land, especially in areas prone to erosion,” writes the Klöckner spokeswoman. Schulze’s spokesman, on the other hand, emphasizes the dangers for biodiversity: “As a total herbicide, glyphosate destroys all plants indiscriminately and thus destroys the food and livelihood for many insect species such as butterflies and, indirectly, for field birds such as the skylark.”

EU assessment expected in 2022

At the European level, the European Food Safety Authority EFSA and the European Chemicals Agency ECHA will start public participation at the beginning of September – results are expected in one year.

Bayer AG continues to rely on the controversial herbicide. Europe does not play a major role as a sales market. The agricultural countries in North and South America are more important. In the USA around ten billion euros have to be paid in the context of a settlement to 96,000 plaintiffs who blame glyphosate for their cancer, and billions more will be due for future plaintiffs . Bayer therefore wants to limit its use for private customers – but Roundup should continue to be used in large-scale agriculture. Only the warning notices should be made clearly more visible. glyphosate The weed killer glyphosate was developed by Bayer subsidiary Monsanto and marketed under the brand name Roundup. The herbicide is also manufactured by other companies, as the patent has expired for years. Bayer is faced with around 9,300 plaintiffs because of the weed killer in the United States, as glyphosate is suspected of being carcinogenic. This is based on the assessment of the International Agency for Cancer Research (IARC), which classified the active ingredient as “probably carcinogenic” in 2015. The Bayer Group always emphasizes that glyphosate is safe when used properly and relies on a large number of scientific studies.

At the end of 2017, the EU Commission extended the approval of glyphosate by five years and now has to make a new decision. A first round of talks is to take place in September and then the EU member states will be involved. Against this background, the EU Commission commissioned the assessment group for glyphosate (consisting of the testing authorities in France, Hungary, the Netherlands and Sweden) to prepare a draft of the risk assessment. This 11,000-page draft was submitted to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) in mid-June 2021. A final recommendation from EFSA can be expected in the second half of 2022 after the submission has been examined

Balance of the Wirecard U Committee Is Scholz complicit?

Status: 06/22/2021 5:00 p.m.

The Wirecard committee of inquiry presented its report one year after the accounting scandal became known. But who is politically responsible remains open. The opposition and the Union accuse Finance Minister Scholz. For years the Wirecard Group has been highly praised – an innovative business model, a fantastic sales development, the hope in the Dax. And then almost two billion euros disappeared from the balance sheet practically overnight. “It is a criminal case,” says Matthias Hauer, chairman of the Union in the committee of inquiry. And after seven months of studying the files and questioning witnesses, it is clear that the Union is primarily responsible for the bankruptcy of billions: “Federal Finance Minister Olaf Scholz and the management of the Federal Ministry of Finance bear political responsibility for the Wirecard scandal,” said Hauer. They knowingly looked the other way when the rumors about irregularities in the Wirecard management made the rounds. Fabio de Masi from the Left puts it even more drastically: “This billions of dollars lie, this Wirecard illusion factory was only conceivable because they organized a political network to hide the fact that there wasn’t much substance under the covers. “ De Masi recalled the countless investors who would have lost a total of more than 20 billion euros in share assets due to the Wirecard bankruptcy.

Opposition demands political consequences

Florian Toncar from the FDP also thinks that someone from politics should have apologized to the injured party: “I think it is a major annoyance for many citizens that in the end there is no one in such scandals who will also stand up admits his own mistakes. ”

But back to Olaf Scholz. As a witness in the committee of inquiry, he had considerable gaps in memory, complained the spokesman for the Union and opposition parties. Lisa Paus from the Greens thinks that Olaf Scholz did not exactly recommend himself as a candidate for Chancellor: “I think that especially in these times Germany needs a leader who can also admit mistakes. And I think that is something that Olaf Scholz is not given. ” Kay Gottschalk from the AfD was the chairman of the committee of inquiry – Union and the other opposition factions attested to having carried out the office professionally and with colleagues. In the matter he also misses political consequences at a higher level. “A minister would have resigned 20 years ago. And that is a cultural change that we are experiencing here in Germany that I do not like,” said Gottschalk.

SPD defends Scholz

And the SPD? It takes its candidate for chancellor out of the political line of fire. The allegations against Scholz are just election campaign noise, says finance politician Cansel Kiziltepe: “Olaf Scholz bears no political responsibility for the Wirecard scandal. And the allegations that have been made have not been confirmed.”

On Friday there is still a Bundestag debate on the political assessment of the scandal – then the public prosecutor has the floor. She is investigating the former management of Wirecard for, among other things, embezzlement, falsification of accounts and fraud committed by gang. It is not yet possible to foresee when there will be criminal proceedings

Mining in Bolivia Lithium rush in the Andes

As of: 06/20/2021 4:40 p.m.

The largest lithium deposits on earth are believed to be under the Uyuni salt lake in Bolivia. The planned dismantling of the metal, which is important for batteries, raises hopes, but is controversial because of the high water consumption.

By Anne Herrberg, ARD Studio Buenos Aires, and Matthias Ebert, ARD studio Rio de Janeiro

It lies dazzling white between the majestic peaks of the Bolivian Andes, an area nine times the size of Berlin: the Uyuni salt lake. Hidden underneath is a treasure: white gold, lithium, or as Panfilo Huayllas, Mayor of Rio Grande says: “our future”. He demands: “All communities around the salt lake and all Bolivians must benefit from the lithium that is under this salt crust.

Lithium, the lightest metal on earth, is required for lithium-ion batteries. They are not only found in cell phones and laptops, but also in electric cars. Without lithium there is no e-mobility – and nowhere in the world are more reserves believed than here, on the roof of the Andes.

Bolivia doesn’t just want to be a supplier of raw materials

But Bolivia wants to be more than just a supplier of raw materials. “We local residents have to share in the profits, because we will feel the effects of lithium industrialization here in Rio Grande,” says Mayor Huayllas.

Lithium is said to be a driver for Bolivia’s industrialization. The plan is to build the batteries yourself. Ex-President Evo Morales was once looking for partners for this project – and found them in a German medium-sized company: ACISA from Zimmer ob Rottweil on the edge of the Black Forest. It was a deal of the century. But it burst in 2019 , after the election overshadowed by allegations of fraud and Morales’ flight into exile. Since then, the German-Bolivian project has been on hold.

The lithium deal negotiated by ex-President Morales collapsed in 2019. Image: AFP

Not everyone is enthusiastic about it anyway. Luis Machaca is the spokesman for a citizens’ initiative that opposes the project. “The Germans wanted to mine our raw material behind our backs, with a contract for 70 years,” he says. “They may be a good partner, but they have neither the technical means nor the technology.”

Lithium mining uses up a lot of precious water

What does mining mean for people, but also for the sensitive ecosystem? It is about the most precious commodity on the roof of the Andes: water.

A look across the border into the Atacama Desert to Chile: SQM has been mining lithium there for 25 years. The brine is pumped up from 40 meters, then evaporates in basins over months until a lithium-containing slag remains. It is a very water-intensive process, of all places in one of the driest regions in the world, says the Chilean biologist Cristina Dorador. “We can see from satellite images over the past 20 years that the soil has lost moisture,” she says. At the same time, the ground is heating up and the vegetation is receding. “These changes are directly related to lithium production over the past 20 years.”

Water protection should be improved

The company promises to make mining more sustainable. In Chile’s new constitution, on which the biologist Dorador will also be co-writing, environmental and water protection should be a top priority. Local residents like Cristian Toroca remain skeptical. “The company had not previously intended to involve local residents, that bothers us about this group,” he says. “They’re pulling this mineral out of the ground to sell in Europe as a clean product, but that’s a lie.”

In Bolivia it is still unclear who will be awarded the contract: the Germans are competing with Chinese and US companies. Panfilo Huayllas continues to hope that the white gold will bring prosperity to his community. But he too says: not at any price. “Alternative ways of supplying lithium production with water in the future must be found. If they only tap our wells, we will ruin the future of our children.”

VW factory in Emden When 8,000 employees have to rethink

Status: 19.06.2021 10:18 a.m.

In the future, only electric cars will roll off the assembly line at the VW plant in Emden. This means billions in costs for the group – and many changes for the employees. And some jobs will probably disappear.

From Sebastian Duden, NDR

“What is that again?” Andreas Buse looks at his trainer questioningly and points to a magnetic picture that he should hang in the right place on a board. “This is the heater for the battery, which is also in the front of the vehicle.” It is about basic knowledge of the new electric cars that are to be built here at the Volkswagen plant in Emden from 2022. All 8,000 employees at the site go through the training.

It doesn’t work without a plug

It will be more special for the production staff at the next station. Buse has to be even more careful. This is about plugs. He’s trying to build a cable to an electric car charger. It doesn’t work, and he has to find the problem. “Ah, okay, a pin is bent, that’s why it doesn’t work.” His instructor nods. “So don’t just check the connector, but always look at the component to see if nothing is bent.” Plugs – they will be even more important in the future, so they have already been. Without a plug there is no flow of electricity, and then they cannot even drive the cars out of the hall. “To know that the vehicle cannot be delivered at all and that a fault then has to be laboriously searched for, that is something I have great respect for,” says Buse.

No oil, no engine compartment

One hall further is the ID.4 – the electric car that will roll off the assembly line here from 2022. It’s an SUV, weighing more than two tons. Much of the weight is caused by the large battery. Depending on the model, the ID.4 should travel up to 500 kilometers.

“The dipstick is no longer there, oily fingers, the time is over,” says project manager Hanno Greune. He opens the “bonnet” of the car, which actually doesn’t deserve the name anymore, because you won’t find an engine here. That is not much more than a “technical room”, he admits, there are now fans and heaters, for example. “In our vehicles, the engine is on the rear axle,” says Greune. He points to a plain black cover in the trunk. Underneath is a comparatively small unit – about the size of a sports bag.

So far mainly the location for the production of the VW Passat, in a few years pure electrical work: the factory in Emden. Image: picture alliance / Jochen Tack

The VW plant in Emden is already the size of an entire district. It is now being expanded again towards the Ems. For this purpose, foundation piles had to be driven 30 meters deep into the muddy subsoil. The largest hall has 45,000 square meters. A total of six new halls and logistics buildings will be added. The expansion will cost one billion euros. “The renovation is the most massive that the site has ever gone through,” says plant manager Uwe Schwartz. “We are massively involved in all structures. We are creating more than 100,000 square meters of new space.” Schwartz was brought in specially for the renovation. Before he headed the planning staff at the main plant in Wolfsburg, now he can implement the ideas developed there on site.

Simpler technology, fewer jobs

Volkswagen relies entirely on electric drives. The conversion should be a clear commitment to electric drive – even if experts can imagine other drive types in the future, for example in combination with synthetic fuels. For a transitional phase of three years, VW wants to build cars with internal combustion engines in Emden at the same time.

“Emden is the first location in Lower Saxony that will then be completely converted to vehicles with electric drives,” says Schwartz. Up to now, the “Passat” models in particular have rolled off the production line at the plant. Electric vehicles, however, have a much simpler drive than petrol and diesel. Most of them not only have more complex engines, but also finely graduated gears and gearshifts. All of that is missing in an electric car. As a result, manufacturers actually need fewer employees to build them.

Fewer employees needed to build e-cars

The works council in Emden sees the problem and expects the loss of some jobs. However, new employees are also needed elsewhere, says Works Council Chairman Manfred Wulff. For example in digitization. “We still need bodies that have to be pressed and painted, so we won’t lose a lot of work. The fact that we no longer have the classic engine will be eliminated.”

Experts predict that in the worst case scenario, it could hit a third of those employed in vehicle construction during the transformation phase. But they see it differently in the works council in Emden. There they even wished to switch over to electric car construction as quickly as possible. After all, the sales figures for the classic VW models have not developed positively. The alternative would have been to build more models with internal combustion engines at the Emden location in order to utilize the capacities. Then it would be better to have a clear future perspective, according to the works council. This is how Andreas Buse sees it, who is now back on the production line and wiring the engine compartment of the Passat and Arteon models. “Sure, there will be restructuring, but I’m not afraid of it.” Many of his colleagues will probably go into partial retirement in the course of the restructuring. However, he is only 32 years old. And he is also looking forward to the changes. Even if he will miss the Passat, as he admits when asked

Real estate market in Europe Construction is not booming everywhere

Status: 16.06.2021 2:01 p.m.

Construction is one of the boom industries in Germany even during the crisis. But what about in other European countries? Our correspondents report that the situation there is only partially comparable.

Poland: increasing demand, increasing prices

By Jan Pallokat, ARD studio Warsaw Anyone in Poland who thought that the corona pandemic would slow down the construction industry, which has been booming in the country for years, was caught on the wrong foot at the beginning of the year. Housing construction in particular is buzzing even more; In the first quarter, developers in major cities sold 40 percent more than in the previous year and three percent more than in the previous record year of 2017. And because the supply of modern living space still lags behind demand in the country, the sales prices achieved are also rising steadily: on average by almost eight percent for new buildings and six and a half percent for used residential property. The rising prices for building materials and an increasing shortage of staff also play a role here. Because construction workers are scarce, market experts are now warning that construction sites could be paralyzed in rows during the high season in summer. The downside of the building boom: home ownership is often unaffordable for young families. Already today, 43 percent of under 35-year-olds in Poland lived with their parents, the Eurostat statistics office recently reported. This puts Poland in the top group in the EU when it comes to “Hotel Mama” and is on a similar level to Italy.

Spain: no construction boom in sight

By Reinhard Spiegelhauer, ARD studio Madrid Construction boom and Spain – wasn’t there something? Yes, Spain has actually experienced an absolutely ludicrous construction boom – but that was 20 years ago. In the nineties and noughties, the number of planned apartments practically doubled from year to year – up to the highest level in 2006 with almost 900,000 apartments. Then came the big bang: the real estate bubble burst, banks had to be bailed out, Spain rushed past bankruptcy, hundreds of thousands could no longer service their real estate loans, apartments were evicted. The market then recovered very slowly. But still, roads, lamps and park benches built in boom times are rotting in many development areas. In 2019, the year before the corona pandemic, the foundation stones were laid for a good 100,000 apartments. Since then, however, the sector has largely been paralyzed again. Unemployment fell again after peaking at around 25 percent after the euro crisis, but it again reached 15 percent during the pandemic. For young adults it is more than 30 percent. According to experience from the times of the real estate bubble, far stricter criteria now apply to the granting of loans. All of this is currently preventing any kind of construction boom in Spain.

Switzerland: mainly redevelopment and densification

By Dietrich Karl Mäurer, ARD studio Zurich Instead of a “construction boom”, the umbrella association of the Swiss construction industry, Building Switzerland, speaks of “continuously good work”. A large part of the orders are so-called consolidations and energy-efficient building renovations. But not least because of the low interest rates, large investors like to invest in construction projects such as new building complexes with rental apartments. The demand is good, although there are vacancies in some rural regions. Housing is still in short supply in cities. This is also because net immigration has recently risen again; During the pandemic, many foreigners who actually wanted to leave the country after a certain period of time in Switzerland preferred to stay – mainly because of the comparatively difficult labor market conditions in their home countries. The construction industry accounts for ten percent of Switzerland’s economic output and employs around half a million skilled workers. According to a recent economic survey, the situation in the construction industry is stable. However, the limited availability of building materials and preliminary products could become a problem. Incidentally, real estate prices in Switzerland have risen faster than they have been in eight years.

In this quarter, the deliveries of Ideal ONE were 12,579 units, an increase of 334.4% from 2,896 units in the same period in 2020; car deliveries in the second quarter are expected to reach 14,500-15,500 units, a year-on-year increase of 119.6% to 134.7%. At the same time, Ideal Auto’s auto sales in the quarter were 3.46 billion yuan, an increase of 311.8% year-on-year; the auto profit margin was 16.9%.

Xiaopeng Automobile’s total revenue in the first quarter was 2.951 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 616.1%; of which 13,340 vehicles were delivered and sales revenue was 2.81 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 655.2%; in addition, the gross profit margin was 11.2%, a year-on-year decrease of 4.8%; net The loss was 786.6 million yuan, an increase of 21.05% year-on-year. For the second quarter, Xiaopeng Motors expects vehicle deliveries to be 15,500-16,000 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of approximately 380.2% to 395.7%.

The total revenue of the three new domestic car manufacturers in the first quarter was 14.513 billion yuan, only 21.86% of Tesla’s, and none of them achieved profitability. The analysis believes that the investment in R&D by the three new car manufacturers is an important reason why they have not yet been able to achieve profitability. In the first quarter of this year, the research and development expenses of Weilai Automobile, Ideal Automobile and Xiaopeng Automobile were 687 million yuan, 515 million yuan, and 535 million yuan, respectively, accounting for 8.61%, 14.41%, and 18.13% of overall revenue.

It should be noted that Ideal Automobile achieved a profit of 108 million yuan in the fourth quarter of 2020. Although it failed to maintain profitability in the first quarter of this year, Ideal Automobile is still expected to become the first of the three new car manufacturers to achieve a positive annual net profit. enterprise.

According to the “Research Report on China’s Third-Party Payment Industry in 2021”, according to the statistical data of iResearch, The third-party payment market has experienced rapid development, and the total scale of mobile payment and Internet payment will reach 271 trillion yuan in 2020. Third-party payment has made China’s payment market one of the world’s leading payment markets with its convenient, efficient and safe payment experience.

As early as 1998-2005, third-party payment institutions such as Capitel, Alipay, Lianlian Pay, Kuaiqian and Tenpay were established one after another to provide payment channels for online commercial activities. In 2010, the People’s Bank of China issued the “Measures for the Administration of Payment Services for Non-financial Institutions” and issued payment business licenses to eligible institutions. These measures confirmed the legal status of payment services for non-financial institutions and adopted them as regulatory standards. To ensure the long-term and orderly development of the business and ensure the long-term development of the industry.

Looking back on the growth path of third-party mobile payment in my country, it originated from e-commerce, which has experienced explosive growth due to social red envelope transfers, and offline QR code payment has entered a new offline-driven track. With the rapid growth of scale, the penetration rate of third-party mobile payment has gradually increased, and the growth rate of the industry scale has stabilized. Even in the special year of 2020, only the first two quarters of offline QR code payment has been affected to a certain extent, and the industry as a whole can still maintain a stable growth trend.

From the perspective of changes in the structure of mobile payment itself, the emergence of offline QR code payment has changed the form of offline mobile payment, which has steadily increased the proportion of consumer transactions. In the financial and personal application trading sectors, with the exception of the early social red envelopes and baby currency fund products, there has not been a leap-forward product form since 2016. The growth of the business scale of these two sectors mainly comes from the mobile payment itself. Increasing penetration rate, increasing user stickiness, and the development of Internet wealth management and consumer finance businesses.

Comparing the structure of bank card transactions, we have also experienced an increase in the proportion of consumer transactions, but in 2020, bank card transfer transactions accounted for 85.5%, and third-party mobile payment personal applications and mobile finance accounted for the total proportion. It’s still not enough, so in large-amount financial services, personal application transfer services, and B-end transfer services, third-party mobile payment companies still have room for power and have growth potential.

In 2020, the first echelon Alipay and Tenpay will occupy the leading position in the market with a relatively large lead. . Payment companies in the second tier are working hard in their respective subdivisions.

The blue ocean oasis subsidy for the catering industry has temporarily come to an end, and the monetization rate of the payment business rebounds

In 2017, WeChat and Alipay successively launched the “Oasis Plan” and the “Blue Ocean Plan” for merchants in the catering industry. At the beginning of the event, merchants in the catering industry enjoy low or even zero rates for receiving payments, and service providers who promote merchants can also receive a 0.2% rebate based on the transaction amount. As the penetration of catering merchants continues to increase, the rebate ratio of Alipay WeChat to service providers will be reduced to 0.1% in the later stage. Until 2020, the Blue Ocean Oasis plan will gradually adjust merchants’ payment rates to the normal rate of 0.38%. The service provider rebate ratio was further reduced to 0.05%. At the same time, Alipay has launched the “New Blue Ocean Plan” for some merchants that are equipped with designated IoT operating equipment. But overall, the subsidy for the traditional blue ocean oasis will officially end in 2021, which means that this part of the transaction scale can not only get the normal payment fee, but also reduce the 0.05%-0.2% subsidy for service providers. The analysis believes that the phased end of the Blue Ocean Oasis Plan means that the benefits of this part of the transaction can be increased from -0.2% to 0.15% of the transaction scale to 0.38% of the transaction scale, and the overall transaction scale is increased by 0.23% -0.58%.

The party in the new scenario enters, forming a closed loop of the payment business, and increasing the compliance requirements for the realization path

For Internet giants such as Meituan, Toutiao, and Pinduoduo that have entered third-party payment in recent years, the consideration of starting payment services is usually for three reasons: One is to form their own business closed loop to prevent user transaction information and payment information from being out of the system. Other third-party payment companies can obtain the advantages of their own business; the second is that with the expansion of the business scale in the system, the total amount of payment transaction fees continues to increase, and the establishment of free payment channels can save this part of the cost; the third is to pass After the transaction flow in the system is converted into payment flow, services such as credit and wealth management are further superimposed to earn financial service fees.

Return to the nature of payment business, with core capabilities in user operations and merchant operations

Looking back at the development history of third-party payment, whether it is the “guaranteed payment model” in the e-commerce field, the red envelope in the social field or the offline QR code payment, every increase in growth rate comes from the innovative products provided to users and merchants. Unique value. Therefore, although the current anti-monopoly regulatory compliance measures facing the industry have caused some business development expectations to be different from before, However, it is precisely these anti-monopoly compliance measures that enable industry participants who have gradually shown to rely solely on the advantages of scenarios to expand their business scale to re-think about the new payment business value they can provide. With the implementation of anti-monopoly compliance measures, it is foreseeable that the concentration of the third-party mobile payment market will decline to a certain extent. In this process, a complete user and merchant operating system will maintain the stickiness of users and merchants. Providing unique value is the key capability of payment institutions.

Barcode payment provides a window for the digital upgrade of offline merchants, and diversified value-added services further facilitate digital transformation

For many online, small, medium and micro businesses, offline barcode payment is one of the first digital methods they contacted. In the process of continuous penetration of barcode payment, offline small, medium and micro merchants have also established a certain connection with their service providers. In terms of the classification of barcode payment, it can be divided into three methods: the payment code and personal code directly connected to the head payment agency, and the aggregate payment that requires other acquirers or acquirer service providers. While providing merchants with the integration of multiple payment channels, the provider of aggregate payment further superimposes services such as cashier terminal sales and maintenance, marketing diversion, etc., while increasing their own business income, further improving the stickiness of merchants and deepening the degree of digital transformation of merchants.

Increased demand for equipment upgrades in downstream systems, with less impact on mid- and upstream companies

The central bank’s digital currency replaces M0 and belongs to cash currency. According to the idea of ​​digital currency positioning as cash currency, we review the provisions of the “Provisions for Deposit Management of Non-bank Payment Institution Customers” issued this year: “Non-bank payment institutions passed the regulations in accordance with the regulations. If the customer is to redeem the provision in cash, it should be processed through the filing own fund account first, and then the corresponding amount of the client provision fund should be transferred to the filing through the main supervision agency of the provision fund from the central storage account of the provision fund. Own funds account”.

It can be seen that the digital wallet service of third-party payment institutions and the merchant-side acquiring service are still one of the important carriers of their circulation. The promotion of digital currency and the application of third-party payment are complementary and not a substitute for each other. At the same time, the clearing institution, which is an important infrastructure of the payment chain, will still play a clearing role in the digital currency era. In the downstream of the payment chain, acquiring service providers and machine tool manufacturers need to upgrade their original equipment and systems in order to allow digital currencies to have a wider range of payment scenarios. This certainty will be for downstream companies. Business income brings special growth drivers.

Service providers are facing transformation challenges and orderly integrate diversified corporate services

The emergence of offline QR code payment is the first contact between many offline merchants and digitization. With the sweeping wave of digitization and the upgrade of payment-related services, QR code ordering and merchant mini programs have become the entry point for further digitization of merchant business.

With the promotion of QR code ordering, small program takeaway, and ordering applications, it not only means savings in operating costs for merchants, but will also be accompanied by digital upgrades in the pre-payment link, which will make merchants’ operating information more complete, which is conducive to further progress. Analyze and improve their own operating efficiency and obtain external financial support.

For payment companies, the distinction between online and offline scenarios will be broken. Merchant services will still focus on offline attributes, but the services provided for them will not be limited to offline payments, which raises the overall technical capabilities of service providers. Requirements.

On May 28, the Metrology and Testing Center of the Fifth Electronics Research Institute of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (Guangzhou Saibao Metrology and Testing Center) released “The Road to Decarbonization of China’s Digital Infrastructure: Data Center and 5G Carbon Reduction Potential and Challenges (2020-2035) )” report (referred to as the “Report”), which predicts the energy consumption and carbon emission trends of China’s data centers and 5G and other digital infrastructures.

The “Report” states that After China fully achieves its carbon peak in 2030, the carbon emissions of digital infrastructure will continue to grow, and it has become a new growth point in energy consumption and carbon emissions. It is necessary to accelerate the transition to 100% renewable energy and achieve carbon neutrality as soon as possible.

“Report” predicts, By 2035, the total power consumption of China’s data centers and 5G will be about 2.5-3 times that of 2020 , Will reach 6,951-7,82 billion kilowatt-hours, accounting for 5-7% of China’s total electricity consumption.

Simultaneously, In 2035, the total carbon emissions of China’s data centers and 5G will reach 230-310 million tons, accounting for 2-4% of China’s carbon emissions, which is equivalent to the current carbon dioxide emissions of the two Beijing cities. Among them, the carbon emissions of data centers will increase by 103% compared with 2020, and the carbon emissions of 5G will increase by 321%.

In contrast, key emission industries such as steel, building materials, and non-ferrous metals are expected to take the lead in achieving peak carbon emissions and begin to decline after 2025, and the “lock-in effect” of carbon emissions from digital infrastructure will enable China to achieve carbon peaks and further carbon neutrality. Important challenge.

The “Report” recommends, Accelerating the transition to 100% renewable energy can fundamentally help the digital infrastructure industry to reduce carbon emissions, and is the industry’s priority path towards carbon neutrality. Among them, data centers and 5G can apply renewable energy through investment in the construction of distributed and centralized renewable energy projects, market-based procurement of renewable energy, and subscription of green power certificates, while exploring the application scenarios of combining energy storage and renewable energy. .

To this end, the “Report” puts forward the following recommendations to relevant companies: First, set a goal to achieve 100% renewable energy by 2030, and further propose a full range (scope 1, 2, 3) carbon neutral goal by 2030; The second is to expand the scale of corporate renewable energy procurement and actively communicate with key stakeholders to facilitate further breakthroughs in the market-based renewable energy procurement mechanism; the third is to further improve energy information disclosure, disclosing information on greenhouse gas emissions and energy use.

ILO report millions Domestic servants are exploited

Status: 15.06.2021 6:05 p.m.

Working conditions for domestic workers have continued to deteriorate during the corona pandemic, according to a report by the International Labor Organization. Women are most affected. Ten years after a UN Protection Convention was passed, millions of domestic workers are still suffering from exploitation and poor working conditions. The Corona crisis has made the precarious social situation of children, women and men even worse, said the International Labor Organization (ILO) in a report. Many would have lost their jobs during the global pandemic. While, according to the report, the situation for many employees visibly improved before the pandemic, the conditions are now often worse again. ILO Director General Guy Ryder therefore called for all domestic workers to receive fair contracts as well as job and social protection.

06/02/2021

More than a third without protection

More than a third of all 76 million domestic workers had no protection whatsoever, especially in Asia and in Arab countries, according to the ILO chief. According to the information, almost 58 million of the 76 million domestic workers worldwide are women. The ILO, which is part of the United Nations, passed the Convention for the Protection of Domestic Workers in mid-June 2011. It applies to employees who cook, clean, look after children and the elderly and do other work in other households.

05.12.2018

UN convention is ignored

According to the convention, domestic workers should receive a minimum wage, paid rest periods and holidays. They also have a right to secure jobs that do not endanger their health. The agreement also prohibits any form of harassment, abuse and violence. The employees have the right to an employment contract – if the contract is breached, they should be able to sue in court. It is also stated that domestic workers under the age of 18 enjoy special protection. However, the regulations made in the UN Convention are often ignored. Domestic workers are often employed informally and so cannot exercise their rights.

Criticism of China’s economic project Headwind on the “New Silk Road”

Status: 06/11/2021 12:58 p.m.

China is expanding its influence worldwide, and the “New Silk Road” is intended to further strengthen the country. But the criticism of the project is growing. At the G7 meeting, the Australian head of government wants to report on his experiences. From Steffen Wurzel, ARD studio Shanghai Ding Laisong from the customs authority of the Chinese port city of Ningbo was satisfied at the beginning of the week: Trade with the states of the so-called “New Silk Road” had increased by 30 percent, he said on the Chinese state television broadcaster CCTV. In the case of trade with the particularly committed Silk Road countries in Central and East Asia, the plus is even 50 percent.

Sri Lanka regrets cooperation

China’s state and party leadership continues to sell its controversial strategy and trade project “New Silk Road” within the People’s Republic as a great success. In numerous partner countries, however, the initial enthusiasm for the project has given way to sober insight. China’s state and party leadership has nothing to give away with the Silk Road. On the contrary: in many cases, the Silk Road partner countries have borrowed considerably – with Chinese state banks. This sometimes creates considerable dependencies. One example is the Hambantota port project in Sri Lanka. According to media reports, the expensive Silk Road port project has hardly brought the island state anything economically. Sri Lanka’s Foreign Minister Dinesh Gunawardena now openly speaks of a mistake in leasing the port on the southern tip of the country to China for 99 years.

One billion euros in debt for Montenegro

In Europe, too, it is now becoming clear what the Silk Road critics have been calling a debt trap for years: the Balkan state of Montenegro, for example, had borrowed around one billion euros in China for the construction of a nearly 180-kilometer-long motorway. The autobahn is far from finished. But now the repayment is due – and the EU accession candidate lacks the money. The mood has also changed in large industrialized countries: In Italy, Prime Minister Mario Draghi put the Silk Road cooperation with China on hold, and the government in Canberra has also completed two projects in Australia. Only smaller, more symbolic projects were affected, but China’s communist leadership reacted angrily. She described Australia’s decision as “unreasonable and provocative”.

Australia accuses China of “extortionate behavior”

It is becoming clear that the communist leadership sees itself increasingly on the defensive in the Silk Road project, officially known as “Yi Dai Yi Lu”. Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison complained at an economic conference in Perth “blackmailing behavior” by states like China. “Where compulsive acts have no consequences, there is little incentive to restrain,” said Morrison. Australia’s prime minister called for the sanctioning mechanisms of the World Trade Organization to be strengthened. Because if blackmailing behavior has no consequences, there is no reason for the corresponding states to hold back.

The G7 summit in Cornwall The heads of state and government of the seven leading industrialized countries (G7) will meet from June 11th to 13th in Cornwall, southwest England. For the first time in two years, they will meet again in person in the afternoon. In addition to climate change, the conference will also focus on trade issues and investments as well as the fight against the corona pandemic. In addition, the meeting will focus on the positioning towards Russia and China.
The G7 group includes the USA, Germany, Great Britain, Canada, France, Italy and Japan. Like-minded democratic states such as South Korea, South Africa, Australia and India are invited to the summit as guests. After the government in Canberra demanded a complete clarification of the origin of the Covid 19 pandemic around a year ago, Australia was de facto covered with an economic war by China’s leadership. The Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison wants to share this experience with the G7 countries. He will be a guest at the summit in England.

Apple hires former BMW CEO for electric car project. The iPhone maker’s car-making efforts, known as Project Titan, have progressed unsatisfactorily since 2014. At this point, Apple began designing its own vehicles for the first time. In December 2020, Reuters reports that Apple is working on self-driving car technology and aims to produce a passenger vehicle, including breakthrough PIN technology, by 2024. Previously, in 2018, the tech giant Apple hired former Tesla design chief Andrew Kim, sparking speculation that Apple was once again trying to develop its own car. The timing of Apple’s hire of Andrew Kim seems to coincide with Doug Field’s return to Apple as well. Looking at the profile of Andrew Kim, this designer has contributed to Tesla’s hit models Model 3, Model S, Model X, Model Y as well as Roadster V2 and Semi. Before taking on a major role at Tesla, Kim spent three and a half years at Microsoft, where he developed user interfaces and Windows 10 products such as HoloLens and Xbox One S.

Disclosure report Bezos, Musk and Co. hardly paid any taxes

As of: 06/09/2021 05:04 a.m.

A new report reveals that the richest Americans hardly pay any income tax – among them Amazon founder Bezos and Tesla boss Musk. The tax authority wants to determine how the confidential data became public. By Torsten Teichmann, ARD studio Washington In 2007, multibillionaire Jeff Bezos didn’t pay a dime in US income tax. In 2011, too, the Amazon founder offset his income against losses so much that the US tax authority IRS granted him an income-related child allowance of 4,000 US dollars. This had often been speculated about. But now the numbers are known. The foundation for investigative journalism ProPublica quotes from Bezos tax return. These tax tricks are not illegal. But the network of loopholes and discounts remains denied to most Americans due to lack of assets. They move from salary to salary, as US President Joe Biden complains time and again: “Sometimes I argue with friends in the Democratic Party about it: It’s okay to be a billionaire or a millionaire, but pay your fair share.”

What tax amounts are fair for the rich?

But how much should the top 0.01 percent in the US contribute financially to society? There is a dispute about this. The ProPublica report rekindles this debate. The foundation has obtained official tax documents from thousands of the richest Americans, says the journalist Jesse Eisinger involved in the NPR radio station. They cover a period of 15 years. ProPublica initially refers to the reported income from the tax returns of the 25 richest Americans and the increase in wealth over the period that is not taxed. In addition to Bezos, Tesla founder Elon Musk, Facebook boss Mark Zuckerberg and New York’s ex-Mayor Michael Bloomberg will be there.

If we look at the actual tax on capital growth – which is essentially your income – then its tax rate is 3.4 percent. For people like Jeff Bezos or Warren Buffet, it’s even less.

Far from the top tax rate of 37 percent

The investor Warren Buffet paid 0.1 percent tax on income and asset growth between 2014 and 2018, ProPublica calculates. At Bezos it is just under one percent. Americans pay an average of 14 percent income tax. The top tax rate would be 37 percent. America’s billionaires are far from that. The Biden administration reacted cautiously to the findings. Any unauthorized publication of government documents is against the law, said Biden’s spokeswoman Jen Psaki. The Ministry of Finance is trying to clarify how the tax returns have come to the public.

Generally speaking, we know that more needs to be done to ensure that businesses and high-income citizens do more of their fair share. This is what the President says in his proposals, in his budget, and this is how he wants to pay for his proposals. A government proposal provides for higher taxes for households with an annual income of more than $ 400,000. According to the ProPublica report, however, it is completely unclear whether a corresponding reform will generate additional income as long as the loopholes in the tax laws of the USA are not closed.

Taishan Nuclear Power Plant, Guangdong Province, China (Photo: SCMP) Late on June 14, the US media reported that authorities in Washington spent a whole week assessing a report on a possible radioactive leak at the Taishan Nuclear Power Plant (Taishan). ) in Guangdong province, China, after a French company warned of an “imminent radiation threat”. Responding to the news, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian confirmed that radiation levels at the Taishan power plant were normal and there were no safety concerns to report. “There is nothing abnormal in the radiation levels around this nuclear power plant, and safety is still guaranteed,” Trieu said at a press conference on June 15. concerned, the current situation at the Taishan Nuclear Power Plant meets the technical requirements.” He also emphasized that Beijing pays close attention to nuclear safety issues and has a nuclear safety control/management system that fully meets international and domestic standards. Zhao made the statement after the US channel CNN reported earlier this week that the UN Security Council had spent a week assessing the report on the risk of radioactive “leakage” at Taishan. and held “many” meetings on this issue. Framatome – a French nuclear reactor manufacturer that holds a stake in the Taishan plant – is said to have alerted authorities at the US Department of Energy through a letter about the “threat of leakage”. impending radioactive leak” and accused the Chinese government of raising the allowable radiation level to avoid shutting down the power plant. According to a memo cited by CNN, Framatome has sent a letter of petition to Washington to get the US to remove sanctions., It is known that China’s atomic energy industry has been subject to many restrictions imposed by the US. since 2019, due to concerns about the industry’s relationship with the Chinese military. Beijing has criticized the US decision, while some observers say the sanctions are politically motivated. On Sunday, the Dai Son plant also released a statement indicating that radiation levels in and around the plant were “normal” and that its reactors were in good working order. “All performance indicators of the two units meet nuclear safety regulations and plant technical regulations,” the statement said. Last Friday, Framatome released a statement saying that “according to production data, the plant is operating below safety indicators”. However, despite these claims, several US media outlets continued to report on the situation in Taishan, with Newsweek magazine publishing an article titled “Leakage at the Chinese nuclear power plant”. Quoc is reminiscent of Chernobyl, while Taishan insists it is safe.” This article also claims that there are many reports indicating that Taishan brings back “the memories of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in 1986, when the Soviet Union mitigated the problem of radiation levels at one of the nuclear power plants. their nuclear power”. Several other agencies, including Bloomberg, also recalled the Chernobyl incident when reporting on Taishan. France’s Electricite de France (EDF) – the parent company of Framatome – owns a 30% stake in the Taishan plant, along with China Atomic Energy Corporation. The plant consists of two reactors located in southern China, about 75 km from Macao, 140 km west of Hong Kong. This plant started operating between 2018 – 2019 and is said to be the “new generation” of nuclear reactor technology.

After a hacker attack Investigators come to extorted pipeline millions

Status: 08.06.2021 02:12 a.m.

It has been a month since the largest gasoline pipeline in the United States was hacked. The operator paid millions to the extortionists. Now the investigators report a success. After the hacker attack on the largest gasoline pipeline in the United States, investigators recovered most of a ransom payment in the digital currency Bitcoin. The US Department of Justice announced that 63.7 Bitcoin, currently valued at around 2.3 million US dollars, had been seized. The FBI was able to identify a digital wallet that hackers allegedly used to collect a payment from the company concerned, said the agency’s deputy director Paul Abbate.

Hacker from Russia suspected behind the act

The company Colonial Pipeline announced in early May that it had been the victim of a hacker attack. As a result, the pipeline, through which about 45 percent of all fuel consumed on the US east coast runs, was temporarily completely shut down. There were petrol shortages in parts of the country. The capital Washington was particularly hard hit, where at times 88 percent of the gas stations ran out of fuel. “It was an attack on one of our most important national infrastructures,” said Lisa Monaco from the US Department of Justice. The US government suspects hackers from the DarkSide group from Russia behind the crime. Both US authorities and IT security experts strongly advise companies against paying ransom so as not to incentivize cyber criminals to blackmail them. But the pipeline operator paid, as company boss Joseph Blount admitted in the “Wall Street Journal” at the end of May. He authorized a payment of $ 4.4 million. Blount explained the controversial decision by saying that the company was unsure about the extent of the system damage caused. According to the US Department of Justice, Colonial Pipeline had quickly notified the FBI that DarkSide had broken into the computer network and the company had paid the requested ransom of 75 Bitcoin.

Colonial boss praises investigators

In so-called ransomware attacks, data on computers is encrypted – and the attackers usually demand a ransom for the release. Cases in which companies paid were also known before. But it is extremely rare to get the money back. Colonial chief Blount praised the work of the FBI investigators in a statement. He also said the private sector needs to take cyber threats seriously and invest to better defend against them. “Ransomware attacks have increased in scope and sophistication over the past year, targeting our critical infrastructure, businesses of all kinds, entire cities and even law enforcement agencies,” said Monaco from the Justice Department. “Ransomware and digital extortion pose a threat to national and economic security in the United States.” Just a few weeks after the attack on the gasoline pipeline, the world’s largest meat company JBS was hit by a massive cyber attack. Large parts of the production in North America and Australia were paralyzed.

The move comes after the attack on the US oil and gas shipping company Colonial Pipeline and the growing damage caused by cybercriminals. The US raised the level of investigation into the crime of extortion hackers to the level of ‘terrorists’. Photo: REUTERS In an internal guideline document sent to law offices across the United States on June 3, the US Department of Justice directed that investigations into ransomware should be coordinated with the central government, specifically: A new task force was established in Washington. “This will be a specialized process to ensure we can track all cases of extortion hackers regardless of where they happen in the US, so we can capture the connection between subjects and proceed to break the whole link,” said Deputy Attorney General John Carlin. Previously, in May, the largest US oil pipeline system, the Colonial Pipeline, was crippled by hackers. Colonial Pipeline has decided to pay hackers who have compromised their systems nearly $5 million to regain access. According to the Reuters , the DOJ’s guidance document specifically mentions the Colonial attack as an example of “the growing threat posed by cybercriminals and digital ransomware to the nation.” . “To ensure we can uncover connections between incidents and investigations across the country and globally, and to paint a big picture of national security and economic threats, The economy we face, we must strengthen and focus our internal monitoring,” the guidance document states. Reuters Citing US officials, the decision to include ransomware attacks in a special process by the Department of Justice shows that the issue is being prioritized. “We’ve used this model in the past for counterterrorism, but never with ransomware,” said Carlin, adding that the process typically applies to cases involving direct national security. In practice, this means that investigators at US attorneys’ offices dealing with ransomware cases will have to share both up-to-date case details and technical information with officials in Washington. The guidelines also require offices to review and report other investigations related to the large-scale cybercrime ecology. According to the guidelines, the list of investigations currently required to be reported to the central government includes: anti-virus services, illegal online forums or marketplaces, cryptocurrency exchanges, cybercriminal server services, botnets, and online money laundering services. “We would like to emphasize that prosecutors and criminal investigators need to report and conduct monitoring of cryptocurrency exchanges, illegal online forums or marketplaces for trading hacking tools. , as well as tracking botnets that serve a variety of purposes,” said Carlin. According to Mark Califano, a former US attorney and cybercrime expert, raising the level of investigation could allow the US Justice Department to “deploy resources more effectively” and “identify common exploits” variables” used by cybercriminals.

Image of an unidentified flying object Is that a bird? An airplane? Drones? Or something extraterrestrial? The US government has been scrutinizing these unidentified flying objects. A report summarizing what the US knows about “unidentified flying objects” – aka UFOs – is expected to be published in June. However, contrary to many people’s expectations, no “alien” will appear. Two unnamed officials briefed on the report said they had found no information about a UFO connection to extraterrestrials. According to the two officials, the report does not rule out a link between the flying objects and another country. Prior to that, because of concerns about the threat to national security, congressmen pushed for investigation and public reporting of mysterious phenomena that the US government did not want to talk about for generations. At the request of Congress, the Director of National Intelligence is required to submit a consolidated report from multiple agencies within 180 days. This deadline is coming to an end. However, the intelligence office did not specify when the report was released. Republican Senator Marco Rubio (Florida), one of the senators pushing for the investigation, told Fox News : “These are flying in our airspace. We don’t know what it is. We need to find out.” “There are a lot of unanswered questions right now,” Democratic Representative Adam Schiff (California) said NBC . “If other countries have certain devices that we don’t know about, we’d love to find out. Or if there is some other explanation, we would also like to know.” Luis Elizondo, former head of the Pentagon’s Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, said he does not believe the unidentified objects are the technological product of a foreign power, in part. because almost no country can keep this kind of secret. “We live in an incredible universe,” says Elizondo. There are many theories that the three-dimensional universe – where we live – has many things that cannot be explained.” But Michael Shermer, editor of Skeptic magazine, is skeptical. Longtime analyst of UFO theories and other phenomena, says he has seen too many blurry images of alleged encounters with aliens. However, Shermer notes that now several billion people around the world have smartphones that take sharp pictures, and satellites can accurately display every detail on the ground. “90% to 95% of UFOs detected are actually weather balloons, flares, secret military planes, birds reflecting the sun, planes reflecting sunlight, meteors, space junk , satellites, lightning balls, ice crystals reflecting light from clouds, or light reflected in the cockpit windows…” “Show me alien bodies, show me spaceships or show me really high quality videos and photos,” he said in an interview. “That’s how I believe it.” “We need proof rather than noisy videos and blurry photos. Because this would be one of the most unbelievable claims ever, if it proves aliens are real. .” Pilots and skywatchers have long reported sightings of UFOs in US airspace. These UFOs often have unusual speeds or orbits. In 1960, the CIA reported that 6,500 objects had been reported to the US Air Force over the previous 13 years. However, the air force concluded that there was no evidence that these objects were related to “interplanetary spacecraft”. Some people who research the topic say the US government often “restricts mentioning or lying about things that cannot be explained.” However, retired Air Force Colonel Richard Weaver insists that the government does not have the authority and capacity to cover up the encounter with aliens. “Even if it’s hard for us to keep it a secret, how can we build a conspiracy theory like that,” Weaver said. In December 2017, a turning point happened when New York Times revealed the Pentagon has a five-year project to investigate UFOs. The Pentagon later released a video showing military pilots confronting fuzzy objects they could not identify. In 2019, the US Navy announced it would create a formal process for its pilots to report unidentified aerial phenomena, or UAPs. Last August, the US Department of Defense established a task force, tasked with “detecting, analyzing, and cataloging UAPs” that may pose a danger to the United States. In an age of increasingly sophisticated drones, the US military’s theory leans more towards adversary equipment, rather than aliens. However, the creation of the task force is seen as a rare admission from the government that UFOs pose a national security concern.

Taking off his hat, Newin Chidchob – one of the famous politicians of Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra’s era, built his life’s dream when creating a sports tourism technology worth hundreds of millions of dollars in his homeland and transforming ” happy city” Buriram became the top 10 most famous destinations in Thailand. Communicating, building a football dream When the Thais reformed the Thai League in 2007, Buriram United was one of the rare teams that was not located in the capital Bangkok during the transition period. However, Buriram United makes perfect use of its “locality” to rise to the top of the Thai League in terms of competition performance, and at the same time change the skin in socio-economic development in Buriram, the province. about 400km from Bangkok and bordering Cambodia. In 2009, Newin Chidchob, a former Thai politician who served as Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, invested in Buriram United and brought the concept of “entertainment” to the audience, in the context of local people. The media does not have many choices of entertainment facilities. Newin changed Buriram Born from a “happy city” – the meaning of the city of Buriram – but Newin Chidchob has never felt truly happy during his 30 years of engaging in politics. After “putting down the sword”, Newin Chidchob found the joy of life. The owner of Buriram United shared: “Before, when I went to the street or went to the supermarket, many people knew me. But not everyone came to say hello. When I developed Buriram United – becoming the pride of Thai football – many people came to take pictures and offer to sign autographs on souvenirs. Regardless of which club they are a fan of. And Buriram United is a local team, but the fans come from all over Thailand and many countries around the world.” . Pride “Happy City” Thailand’s professional football tournament – Thai League – is in the top 8 in Asia and is worth an estimated 3.5 billion Thai baht (about 2,000 billion VND). According to statistics of Thai League company, the average revenue of clothes and souvenirs of 18 teams competing in Thai League is 65 million baht/round (about 42 billion VND). Newin once brought Xuan Truong to Thai League The club’s well-invested communication and image, enthusiastic audience or attracting sponsors are the answers to the problem of survival and development of clubs in Thailand. Of course, in order to do this, clubs must have a special football field for professional football activities. With the support of the local government, Newin Chidchob was granted a land area of ​​about 20 hectares to invest in the sports ecosystem with the goal of developing the local economy. Buriram United is considered the center of this local sports-tourism-based economic development plan. Newin Chidchob once shared with the media that: “ Buriram is a small province located near the Cambodian border. Tourists often just stop by to visit Phanom Rung historical park – a Khmer temple complex located on the edge of an extinct volcano – and then continue to other big cities, instead of staying in Buriram. This place is also considered a poor area of ​​Thailand, the economy used to be heavily based on agriculture. When Buriram United was born and achieved success, other service industries, especially tourism, developed rapidly. That changes the economic structure of Buriram province.” . In the journey to change the face of Buriram United, Newin Chidchob built Thunder Castle – a 32,600-seat stadium with 5-star facilities. This is the most modern specialized football field in Thailand, meeting the strict standards of FIFA. Besides, a variety of other items also spring up around such as restaurants, hotels, fitness centers, convenience stores. For fans, at first, Buriram United “indirectly” sponsored the fans until it maintained the average number of spectators to the highest stadium in Thailand. This achievement is a great achievement from Hardcore – a group of enthusiastic fans of the team chaired by President Newin Chidchob’s wife. Before the troubles because of Covid-19, Buriram’s home field is always crazy With a huge audience, this creates thousands of jobs for locals. People in Buriram are very interested in buying themselves a traditional team shirt. Buriram United is the pride and symbol of the “happy city” Buriram. The Buriram United logo is plastered on cars, motorbikes, bags, etc. Every afternoon, families or small groups come together to the campus outside Thunder Castle to enjoy the fresh air. Children can freely play in a very large area, where there are football, tennis, basketball courts… for free. On the business side, Buriram United also became the flagship of the Thai League. Statistics from 2013 to now show that the team’s revenue has increased nearly 3 times. Buriram United had sales of 210 billion VND (300 million baht) in 2013 and increased to 564 billion VND (805 million baht) in 2018. Million dollar sports tourism technology After succeeding in attracting spectators to Buriram province through football, manager Newin Chidchob thought of more ways to help sports tourists stay longer in their hometown, instead of just coming to watch the football match, go to the tournament. Visit a few tourist destinations and then parted. With a keen eye, this former politician cleverly built Chang’s racetrack to become a FIA – Grade 1 race track for cars and FIM – Grade A for motorcycles; combined with Thunder Castle stadium and shopping center combined with visiting outstanding relics of ancient Khmer culture near the stadium. As a result, tourists to Buriram have many options with a busy schedule. Mr. Newin built an international standard race track Continually organizing international tournaments, racing drivers and fans flock to the “happy city” to compete and cheer. The stay rate of sports tourists in this sports segment is 3-5 days with a spending level 3 times higher than football fans, helping Buriram sports city to have a diverse tourist segment. Newin Chidchob’s effective development strategy has contributed to local development. The combination of football in particular or sports in general with the resort service business is not new in Thailand. People often call it sports tourism, and this is the area where Thailand is aiming to develop its economy through the combination of tourism and sports, after pure tourism in Thailand has developed to a storm. peace. Thanks to the diverse sports ecosystem that Newin Chidchob has built over the past decade, Buriram’s economy has flourished, especially tourism. According to statistics in 2009, visitors to Buriram were only about 800,000 people, but in 2016 it increased nearly 3 times. Revenue increased from 808 million baht to 2.4 billion baht. It is estimated that each year Buriram United and its ecosystem attract 1.8 million visitors out of a total of 2.5 million to Buriram. Organizers estimate that if each visitor spends about 2,000 baht when arriving in Buriram, the local economy will earn approximately 5 billion baht (about 3500 billion VND). This is a huge number, a “dream” for any country in the region coveted with its tourism and sports business strategy.

Lake Tanganyika monster described by German doctor, Thierfelder in 1914. From the scientist’s notes The people of Lake Tanganyika have long spread about the appearance of a large and ferocious creature living at the bottom of the lake. The Tabwa tribesmen in northern Zambia call it the “God of Fishing”, they often hold rituals before the fishing season to pray for the “god” to facilitate the trip. The first reports of the monster appeared in 1893, when a survey led by Irish explorer Joseph Augustus Moloney went to the lake and met missionaries in the area. The monks told them of a large “sea serpent”, lurking in the murky depths of Lake Tanganyika, also sometimes seen lying in the sun on the shore. Another 1907 report came from the English naturalist Lord Walter Rothschild. He said he had heard stories of a large tusks monster lurking in the southern part of the lake, said to be quite ferocious. Rothschild did not see the creature, but said one of the witnesses was a South African police officer who recounted it and he believed them. Tales of the monster of Lake Tanganyika continued to circulate through the 1900s, mostly from foreigners, with a growing presence in the area. In 1914, a German doctor, MV Thierfelder walked along the banks of a remote lake in Burundi, where he set up a medical station to help deal with the alarming situation of sleeping diseases. One day, he went hunting with a local guide named Ilsgensmeier. This man took him around the area of ​​the lake, which is bordered by a cliff, and here they saw an entity that the German doctor did not know how to describe. It was a giant sea monster that he later estimated to be 30 meters long. “Suddenly, I saw from the lake a monster that looked like a monstrous snake appeared,” he said of the monster. It did not zigzag like a snake, but vertically above the water, at a fairly fast speed, straight up to the area bordering on the rocky shore, where I was lying still. It has no legs, near the head there are slender, fin-like structures on the sides. The whole body has a light brown color, without scales, but is covered with a thick, silky coat. The head of the animal is difficult to discern, because it appears only briefly in the water, but is not large and not clearly separated from the body. It is not like the head of a snake, but quite like the head of a mammal, like a manatee. However, its mouth seemed narrow and elongated. After moving among the otters for a while, the giant beast turned around and plunged into the lake, mixing in undulating waves. Where is the truth? Lake Tanganyika seen from satellite (left) and the area is said to have appeared monsters. In 1920, another remarkable story emerged, also of a foreigner, French writer and explorer, Victor Forbin. He said he had collected many reports on creatures called “amphibians, of enormous size, similar to elephants, rhinos and hippos in many different ways”. But Forbin’s documents in later years were considered untrustworthy, mostly just rumors and false assumptions, even the famous mysterious animal researcher, Bernard Heuvelmans, expressed doubted the authenticity of his stories. In 1928, there were numerous reports of an underwater reptile being seen by sailors on ships passing through the lake, and on one occasion they even spotted traces of this creature on shallow, described as the claw of a giant bird. These stories inspired explorer George Gray. He conducted a search throughout the area but was unable to locate the strange creature, other than reports from natives. Witness sightings after the 20th century began to dwindle, leaving one wondering what was seen, if it were a monster, where it was. Is this an unidentified reptile or a thick-skinned animal (pachyderm) with unidentified horns? It’s difficult to answer because the descriptions vary widely, from a sleek, zigzag reptile, to a large, lumbering hippopotamus. This made one consider, whether there could be more than one beast in the lake area. Whether the story is based on a real creature or just a part of the imagination, the monster Lake Tanganyika has become a bizarre African story and the search is not necessarily over. But with a depth of 1,436m (the second deepest in the world), 670km long of the lake, it is not easy to detect strange creatures here.

That is one of the important reasons that forced Microsoft to announce Windows 10X in 2019. This lighter and more compact version of Windows 10 will be perfectly suited for cheap tablets, laptops, and even devices. be mobile. Microsoft wants to focus more on Windows 10 instead of sharing resources with Windows 10X A supposedly near-final build of Windows 10X has even leaked, and Microsoft is reportedly ready to release the platform in the spring. After that, the timeline was moved to the end of next fall. It seems the software giant wants to stop this entire project in order to focus more on Windows 10. The cause of Microsoft’s change was based on the operating system not ready to meet the company’s expectations, the insider said. This is especially true as the pandemic period has seen increasing use of traditional Windows 10 PCs. This operating system also does not support traditional Win32 applications. Additionally, the report says corporate executives feel Windows 10X doesn’t provide the solutions their customers want.

Lake Tanganyika monster described by German doctor, Thierfelder in 1914. From the scientist’s notes The people of Lake Tanganyika have long spread about the appearance of a large and ferocious creature living at the bottom of the lake. The Tabwa tribesmen in northern Zambia call it the “God of Fishing”, they often hold rituals before the fishing season to pray for the “god” to facilitate the trip. The first reports of the monster appeared in 1893, when a survey led by Irish explorer Joseph Augustus Moloney went to the lake and met missionaries in the area. The monks told them of a large “sea serpent”, lurking in the murky depths of Lake Tanganyika, also sometimes seen lying in the sun on the shore. Another 1907 report came from the English naturalist Lord Walter Rothschild. He said he had heard stories of a large tusks monster lurking in the southern part of the lake, said to be quite ferocious. Rothschild did not see the creature, but said one of the witnesses was a South African police officer who recounted it and he believed them. Tales of the monster of Lake Tanganyika continued to circulate through the 1900s, mostly from foreigners, with a growing presence in the area. In 1914, a German doctor, MV Thierfelder walked along the banks of a remote lake in Burundi, where he set up a medical station to help deal with the alarming situation of sleeping diseases. One day, he went hunting with a local guide named Ilsgensmeier. This man took him around the area of ​​the lake, which is bordered by a cliff, and here they saw an entity that the German doctor did not know how to describe. It was a giant sea monster that he later estimated to be 30 meters long. “Suddenly, I saw from the lake a monster that looked like a monstrous snake appeared,” he said of the monster. It did not zigzag like a snake, but vertically above the water, at a fairly rapid speed, straight up to the area bordering on the rocky shore, where I was lying still. It has no legs, near the head there are slender, fin-like structures on the sides. The whole body is light brown, without scales, but covered with a thick, smooth coat. The head of the animal is difficult to discern, because it appears only briefly in the water, but is not large and not clearly separated from the body. It is not like the head of a snake, but quite like the head of a mammal, like a manatee. However, its mouth seemed narrow and elongated. After moving among the otters for a while, the giant beast turned around and plunged into the lake, merging with the undulating waves. Where is the truth? Lake Tanganyika seen from satellite (left) and the area is said to have appeared monsters. In 1920, another remarkable story emerged, also of a foreigner, French writer and explorer, Victor Forbin. He said he had collected many reports on creatures called “amphibians, of enormous size, similar to elephants, rhinos and hippos in many different ways”. But Forbin’s documents in later years were considered untrustworthy, mostly just rumors and false assumptions, even the famous mysterious animal researcher, Bernard Heuvelmans, expressed doubted the authenticity of his stories. In 1928, there were numerous reports of an underwater reptile being seen by sailors on ships passing through the lake, and on one occasion they even spotted traces of this creature on shallow, described as the claw of a giant bird. These stories inspired explorer George Gray. He conducted a search throughout the area but was unable to locate the strange creature, other than reports from natives. Witness sightings after the 20th century began to dwindle, leaving one wondering what was seen, if it was a monster, where it was. Is this an unidentified reptile or a thick-skinned animal (pachyderm) with an unidentified horn? It is difficult to answer because the descriptions vary widely, from a sleek, zigzag reptile, to a large, lumbering hippopotamus. This made one consider, whether there could be more than one beast in the lake area. Whether the story is based on a real creature or just a part of the imagination, the monster Lake Tanganyika has become a bizarre African story and the search is not necessarily over. But with a depth of 1,436m (second deepest in the world), 670km long of the lake, it is not easy to detect strange creatures here.

7. Demand analysis

   As the main focus of Clipping is “light and easy to cut”, its core needs are potential creators and creative users with waist and head.

   1) Potential creators

• Features: Mainly watching videos, almost no videos, no video editing basis; focusing on popular videos, a large crowd base.
• Requirements: Use tools to add music and special effects to achieve basic editing functions; the software is simple and easy to learn and use, and the tool interface is not complicated. It is best to generate videos with one click.

2) Waist users

• Features: I like to use Douyin, and I am also keen to shoot short videos on my own; there is a need for short video editing, and I am willing to spend time editing the videos I have taken; do not meet the video editing function of the software; pursue entertainment and pay attention to popular videos.
• Requirements: The tool has rich and reliable functions, adding special video effects such as picture-in-picture speed change; learning current popular video templates and easy use; making advanced and beautiful videos, keeping up with popular trends, and enhancing the influence of your own videos.

3) Head user

• Features: Have experience in video production, and have a certain fan base; the crowd base is small.
• Requirements: I hope to replace part of the computer editing process with mobile phone production to improve editing efficiency; I hope that the video can ensure the quality of the look and feel, and some professional functions on the computer can also be realized.

The App Store scored 4.9 on the iOS App Store and 4.8 on the Android App. Analyzing the app market reviews in the past one month, the praise rate of 4 to 5 stars is as high as 78% on the iOS side and 93.5% on the Android side.

Based on the overall high app market rating of Cut Ying, it only extracts the core demands of users based on the 1 to 3 star reviews (330 pieces) on Android and iOS in the past month.

1) Bugs (stuck, crash, network anomalies, import and export anomalies) accounted for more than 60%

• iOS users pay more attention to issues related to adding new feature points and editing capabilities, while Android users pay more attention to issues related to update downloads, music editing functions, and text and letter editing functions.
• TOP issues for iOS users: performance category (38%), editing operation optimization (8%), increased function points (8%), frequent updates (6%), accounting for 60%+.
• TOP issues for Android users: performance category (33%), import and export optimization (10%), increase of function points (10%), update-related (9%) accounted for 60%+.

2) User insight

• Performance layer: The performance experience after the update needs to be paid attention to. Users often complain about the fast update frequency and the unsmoothness of some functions after the upgrade.
• Operation layer: Video editing capabilities have basically met user requirements, but there is still a lot of room for optimization of subtitle text editing functions and audio editing functions. At the same time, the operability of the video frame is also the core appeal of users.
• Capability layer: Adding anti-shake function, adding intelligent dubbing, templates and music browsing records are all reasonable function appeal points for users.

3) High-quality user reviews

• Can you add a function to rotate the video by ninety degrees, switch between horizontal and vertical screens, and cut out the extra screen.
• I hope that smart dubbing can be produced, and there is no starting point when adding a soundtrack. It is difficult to match the climax part of the video with the time-lapse video.
• Cut Ying is fully updated and repaired to make the sound quality better. The sound quality of Douyin is the same as that of Kuaishou, and the sound quality of the whole network cannot be independent. This must be optimized. In the production, as long as there is a point that is particularly good, it can automatically recognize the characters in the excision, and it is especially convenient to leave the favorite magnifier, which must be retained.
• It is fine to not compress the number of frames. No matter how many frames of video are imported, it becomes 30. If the problem can be solved, it will be five-star praise.
• Fun is fun, you can see it by yourself, but you can’t let people do tasks and make money. You have to recommend insiders to do tasks and make money. This is very hopeful. It’s not good at all, and there are more than one star. Gave it.
• I really want to vomit. I didn’t download Douyin, and I couldn’t jump when exporting the video. Then I actively saved it to the album. I saved it in the album before. I recently turned it over. What does it mean? It’s stuck, the music continues. There are one or two in the front of the picture, and there is nothing in the back. Then I thought it was too long, so I made another one, and it was still the same! No matter if it is posted on WeChat Moments or QQ, none of the videos are not music continuing, and there is no picture. Then go to the draft box, eh! It’s all right, I hope to deal with it.

In recent years, short video platform competition has intensified, and short video user penetration rate has reached a certain peak. In this context, how to retain users and enrich UGC content has become a core issue for future development. Ordinary video templates can no longer meet the needs of most users, and users are more willing to make videos more diverse through production techniques such as splicing and editing.

As a result, video production tools began to continuously develop and iterate. The video production App represented by Cut Screen, Quick Video, and Inshot meets the various needs of users when making videos to a greater extent, and facilitates users to create more creative and higher-quality video works.

According to Aurora Mobile (NASDAQ: JG) data: the penetration rate of the video production industry is 19.6%, and out of every 10 mobile phone netizens, 1.96 people have installed a video production app, represented by cut screenings, snapshots and draft designs , Video production App has shown a significant growth trend in terms of user scale.

In terms of growth trends, in 2020, the penetration rate of the video production industry will maintain a year-on-year growth rate of 71.1%-138.1%. The high growth rate can indicate that the video production platform has not reached its ceiling and has huge growth potential.

1. Product performance

   1) App Store ranking

   Based on the data of Qimai, it has been observed that the cut image has been relatively stable in the App Store total list (free) in the past three months, with an average value of 11. In photography and video (free) rankings have been ranked 2 ~ 3.

   Among them, on January 1 and February 14, 2021, the ranking soared to the first place in the overall list. It is estimated that because of the festive effect of New Year’s Day and Valentine’s Day, users need to use the cut screening to create special videos, such as “Review 2020″” Love everyday with lover”.

   

   2) Downloads

   Based on the data of Qimai, observing the download volume of Jianying in the App Store in the past year, it can be found that its download volume broke through the daily average of 40w and reached the highest peak on February 14-15, 2021, and the rest of the time was within the range of 30w-10w. Floating, the annual average value is around 15w.

   

   3) Changes in the number of monthly independent devices

   According to the iResearch Index, the monthly changes in the number of independent devices from February 2020 to January 2021 are shown in the figure. It can be seen from the figure that the overall growth state has shown a state of first decline and then rise. November 2020 is at the bottom of the valley, and the beginning of 2021 will rise strongly, with a year-on-year increase of 13.7%

Speaking of the ancient villages in Jiangnan, I believe everyone is familiar with it. “Small bridges, flowing waters, and people’s houses” have long become the established impression of domestic and foreign tourists on the ancient villages of the ancient town in Jiangnan. Yes, among the many ancient villages in the south of the Yangtze River, we can see their similarities, and when we learn more deeply, there will be new discoveries and new cognitions. There is also an ancient village in the south of the Yangtze River in Tonglu County, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province. It has a history of more than a thousand years. It not only has the architectural style and customs of the ancient village in the south of the Yangtze River, but also has a proud “drainage system”. The first batch of national 3A-level tourist scenic villages in Zhejiang Province, located in the 4A-level scenic Jiangnan ancient village group known as “the first village in the Southern Song Dynasty”-Shenao Ancient Village. In fact, among the many ancient villages in Tonglu, we are most familiar with the national 4A-level scenic spot Jiangnan ancient village group represented by the four villages of “Xufan, Huanxi, Dipu, and Qingyuan”. Among them, Huanxi refers to ” Profound Ancient Village”. For a long time in history, Shenao and Dipu were collectively referred to as “Shenpu”. According to local historical records, Shenao Village was gradually formed and developed when the ancestors of the Shentu family moved to Tongxi in the Southern Song Dynasty. It has been more than a thousand years. Because of its history, it is known as the “first village in the Southern Song Dynasty”. Among the many ancient towns and villages in the south of the Yangtze River, the main reason why Shen’ao Ancient Village is well-known is its unique drainage system, which has been featured in CCTV’s “Faraway Home”. Shenao Ancient Village, an ancient village built because it was close to the Jiaxi River, when the ancestors of the Shentu family were planning the construction of the village, the first and most important link was the planning and construction of the village water system. After a series of construction and improvement, the water system of Shenao Ancient Village has been built into an independent water supply and drainage system consisting of five levels of streams, culverts, open ditch, sills and ponds. The five levels of Shenao Ancient Village seem to exist independently, but in fact they are in emergency contact with each other. The 800-meter concealed canal runs through the entire village, and there is a notch at every other segment, which flows through the front and rear houses of each household, perfect The drainage system can not only fully regulate the ground and underground water resources, but also separate drinking water, domestic water and sewage, and keep the water in a flowing state. This not only reflects an environmental awareness of the use of water resources, but also solves the damage caused by streams and floods and groundwater flooding to the villages of Shenao Ancient Village in the thousand years of history. The Shenao Ancient Village, which is famous for its water system, is precisely because of the foresight of its ancestors. When the village was built a thousand years ago, the creation of such a complete water system also made Shenao Ancient Village free from floods and droughts in the course of the millennium. Infringement, so that the ancient village can preserve the most primitive style. Today, there are more than one hundred ancient buildings in the ancient village of Shen’ao, which has a history of thousands of years. The building area is about 40,000 square meters, of which there are more than 40 Qing Dynasty buildings. The architectural features and customs of the times. Among them, the important ancient buildings that are well-preserved and have a long history include Youxutang, Shennongtang, Huaisutang, Gongsitang, and Huaijingtang. These well-preserved hundreds of ancient buildings and a drainage system that has been used for thousands of years constitute the unique style and characteristics of Shenao Ancient Village, which also makes its reputation as “the first village in the Southern Song Dynasty” well-deserved.

Three, data analysis 1. APP Index

The indexes of the two apps obtained from iResearch’s data are as follows. It can be seen that the wedding apps have a low usage rate for users, and they are not software that users must use every day. At the same time, many newly married couples have delays in preparing for marriage, and the cycle of preparing for marriage will be very long.

As can be seen from the following two pictures, the popularity of China Wedding Expo began to rise in March 2020, and it began to slow down in October.

The popularity of the wedding epoch begins in March 2020, and the popularity tends to decline. The trend of the index may be related to the company’s business model and the information obtained by users. However, the user traffic of the wedding period is still more than that of the Chinese wedding expo, and the chain growth of the wedding period has dropped significantly.

1. News trends

   Since its establishment in 2005, the China Wedding Expo has maintained a good popularity through wedding exhibitions and advertising. However, since 2013, after the birth of the wedding anniversary, the popularity of the wedding anniversary has continued to rise. Two years after the establishment of the wedding anniversary, the news has surpassed the China Wedding Expo. At the same time, the news of the China Wedding Expo has been declining year by year, and the popularity of the wedding ceremony has remained more than 5 times that of the China Wedding Expo.

2. Demand Map

   According to the demand map of China Wedding Expo and Wedding Chronicles, it can be seen that users’ demand for China Wedding Expo will be at wedding fairs in first- and second-tier cities, while the demand for Wedding Chronicles lies in the need for invitations, wedding photos, and wedding photos. Wedding related products such as wedding MV and wedding.

3. User groups

   1) User geographic analysis

The user groups of the wedding ceremony are concentrated in Zhejiang, Guangdong, Beijing, Shandong, Jiangsu, Sichuan, Henan and other population bases. And central cities with high population density.

   The China Wedding Expo annually holds four seasons of wedding exhibitions in 7 cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Tianjin, Hangzhou, and Chengdu, thereby increasing users’ awareness of the brand and the volume of wedding merchandise. Therefore, the number of users of China Wedding Expo in these 7 cities is far more than other cities.

   The wedding anniversary pays more attention to online users and online APP usage and commodity transaction volume, and at the same time expands business in surrounding cities in Zhejiang, thereby increasing brand awareness and brand influence.

   The level of economic development and informatization in the central region of my country is higher than that in the fringe areas, and the population flow in sparsely populated areas and mountainous areas is relatively low compared to other cities. This has led to the fact that users in fringe areas and mountainous areas do not know much about the wedding ceremony, such as Qinghai, Heilongjiang, Guizhou, Yunnan and Guangxi.

   Therefore, while increasing the number of users in central cities, the wedding ceremony should pay more attention to the growth of users in fringe cities and mountainous cities in order to further increase brand awareness and commercial revenue.

1. Structure layer

   From the perspective of the information architecture of the two, both have the function of buying big wedding products and the function of learning about preparations for marriage. However, because the business models of China Wedding Expo and Wedding Ji are different, the functional structure of the two is also not the same. .

The structure is clearer, the functions of wedding products purchase are more complete, and there are also fun brides. The function of communicating the feelings of preparing for marriage.

2. Architecture

   1) Homepage feature comparison

   The homepage functions of the two APPs are not much different. The China Wedding Expo has some recommended content on the main page and the jump page, as well as recommendations of fashionable wedding merchants and discount activities.

   From a commercial point of view, it can increase user transaction volume to a certain extent and obtain advertising fees from some businesses. But for the user, there are some recommended content before the main function of each page, which will interfere with the user’s main task of choosing the product, divert the user’s attention, cause a certain psychological burden on the user’s heart, and reduce the user’s use of the APP.

   Home page function of wedding epoch APP

   The functions and content on the Wedding Ji APP revolve around the main functions to help users find what they want. There are a small part of the recommended content, but the proportion is not large and the location is not conspicuous. Each jump page that arrives from the homepage uses two columns to display the products, the function is clear and the function maintains the consistency and retains the difference.

   However, the jump pages of the China Wedding Expo are displayed in two columns and some are displayed in one column. The functions and layouts are almost consistent, and users need to think about and adapt to the differences in information display on different pages.

   It can be seen that the app is more practical and easier to use.

   2) Marriage preparation strategy function comparison

   The wedding preparation strategy of the China Wedding Expo is launched in the form of articles + videos, but some functions are displayed in a row, and some functions are displayed in a row, and the information of the functions is inconsistent.

   3) E-invitation

   From a functional point of view, the electronic invitations of the two APPs are very simple and easy to use.

3. Presentation layer

   Judging from the interface colors and pictures of the China Wedding Expo APP, the colors used in each interface are not the same, such as pink, purple, and orange. Recommended content and graphic design will also affect the aesthetics of the interface. There are too many different page font sizes, and the bottom navigation icons and fonts are also bold.

   Generally speaking, 2-3 different font sizes of the interface are the best, too many different sizes will make the interface messy.

   

   China Wedding Expo APP

   The interface of the wedding epoch APP uses white as the main color as the background, and light gray as the auxiliary color. The color and size of the icons and fonts are relatively clean and tidy. The font size is more uniform, the icons are brighter, the interface is more white, and the interface style and color are more uniform, which gives users a more refreshing experience.

   Five, summary

   For newlyweds who are going to get married, it is more suitable to use the Wedding Ji APP. The reasons are as follows:

   There are also some areas that can be improved in the wedding app:

Dong Mingzhu talked about the protection of talents should be reasonable and legal, Zhang Han said that he did not want to train people

In the show, when talking about the training of interns, Zhang Han bluntly stated that he actually didn’t want to train people. He said that because he had spent two or three years training people, and in the end, the other party left, which is actually a great loss for his company. After hearing what Zhang Han said, Dong Mingzhu expressed his understanding and also expressed his own thoughts.

Dong Mingzhu said that the flow of talents is actually possible, but the country should introduce certain policies to make the flow of talents reasonable and legal. “Every time talents are cultivated, when results are to be produced, people leave, and the loss to the enterprise is heavy.” Therefore, it is very important to protect and train talents. Dong Mingzhu also bluntly said that his company has always insisted on cultivating talents, but it also allows certain talents to flow in the process.

Liang Jianluo tried to cater to the boss but suffered “Waterloo”, Meng Yutong Zheng Ruxin disputed due to differences in work concepts

The first report of the Dong Mingzhu team is about to hit, and the interns are racing against time to write the plan. Liang Jianluo was the first to complete the report plan, seeking advice from old employees for excellence, and asking Mr. Dong’s preferences. Unexpectedly, the seniors pointed out the problem straightforwardly. The plan was questioned, frustrating Liang Jianluo’s confidence. With the encouragement of Meng Yutong and Zheng Ruxin, Liang Jianluo gradually calmed down, and finally overthrew the plan completely. It took two hours to write a new one and revise it, but in the end his plan failed to win the favor of Dong Zong. In the observation room, Dong Mingzhu also bluntly said that Liang Jianluo should not mainly cater to the boss’s preferences, but should show his creativity in the process.

Liang Jianluo reported the brutal “Waterloo” for the first time, but with his bold ideas and creativity, Meng Yutong finally won the first place with a 0.2 point advantage and was appointed as the team leader to be responsible for the implementation of the entire event. For the implementation of the activity, the plan still needs to be refined, and the activity process and other contents need to be clarified urgently, and contradictions and frictions continue in the process.

Regarding the choice of the event host, Zheng Ruxin volunteered to be the host, but Liang Jianluo said that he could choose from the guests. Zheng Ruxin retorted: “If someone invites me to participate in the event and suddenly let me be the host, I will feel it is work.” Each clings to one’s own opinions and is deadlocked. Immediately afterwards, Zheng Ruxin also had conflicts with Meng Yutong one after another about the choice of the theme color of the set and whether to stay up late and work overtime. After seeing the conflict between the two girls, Liang Jianluo became a Master Duan Shui and suggested that Meng Yutong be decisive. Sometimes the leader might just want to offend others. After hearing this, Meng Yutong also began to reflect on himself.

Wang Yue said that his speech was inadequate and caused doubts. Zhang Beiming was wronged because of the division of labor and failed to complete the assessment.

On the second day after joining Zhang Han, the interns accepted a new task: to record a video of Zhang Han’s handicraft for fans and write the artist’s New Year ID copy. After receiving the task, the three people immediately turned on the working mode, how to shoot a video of crazy brainstorming. After the collective discussion, two proposals with different styles were given, one is the conservative and aesthetic version, and the other is the innovative version, which “forces” Zhang Han to be forced to open business, showing the contrast. After hearing the two plans, Zhang Han accidentally chose the innovative plan, and the interns were pleasantly surprised, but in the process, Wang Yue’s eloquence was too intensive and his tone of voice was not appropriate. Zhang Han directly asked, “Did I feel angry when I came here today?” The atmosphere at the scene was once tense.

After the end of the video shooting, the three interns had not yet written their New Year’s texts, so they were notified by the boss for half an hour and then reported. Time is tight and tasks are heavy. Zhang Beiming, who has multiple tasks, decided to give priority to cutting the video. After finishing it, it was too late to write the copy, so he only provided an idea. After being called by the boss, Zhang Beiming smiled and wanted to explain but was interrupted. Zhang Han said that he didn’t listen to the explanation and only looked at the results. Zhang Beiming, who failed to complete the assessment, was aggrieved with naked eyes. Yang Di, the same editor, held up the injustice for Zhang Beiming: “I really want you to try editing!”

Can the implementation of the reporting plan go smoothly? How to deal with the boss’s doubts? What kind of workplace advice will workplace observers bring to interns? Every Tuesday at 12:00 noon, it will be locked on Mango TV “We Who Are New to the Workplace”. Stay tuned for more exciting content.

“Ping An’s technology strategy continues to deepen, and its technology business maintains rapid development.” The relevant person in charge said. It is reported that as of the end of March 2021, the company’s number of scientific and technological patent applications has increased by 1,100 from the beginning of the year, reaching a total of 32,500, ranking it among the top international financial institutions.

“Ping An of China was the first to implement digitalization in China’s insurance industry, and the investment was the largest, and the results were the best. In the past, the effect of technology investment was obvious, so the income of the technology sector has gradually increased substantially.” China Insurance and Insurance and Insurance Group of Wudaokou School of Finance, Tsinghua University Zhu Junsheng, research director of the Pension Research Center, spoke highly of Ping An’s technology sector and believed that this was a positive result of the company’s firm implementation of its digital transformation strategy over the past years.

At the same time, according to the first quarterly report, Ping An achieved operating profit of 39.120 billion yuan attributable to shareholders of the parent company, an increase of 8.9% year-on-year; annualized operating ROE (return on equity) reached 20.0%.

In terms of customer operating performance, the first quarterly report showed that as of the end of March this year, the number of Ping An’s personal customers exceeded 220 million, an increase of 1.0% from the beginning of the year; among them, the number of individual customers holding contracts with multiple subsidiaries was 84.57 million, accounting for 38.3. %. In the first quarter of 2021, the scale of group business comprehensive financial financing increased by 84.9% year-on-year.

Business value increased by 15.4% year-on-year to 18.980 billion yuan; operating profit increased steadily by 4.2% year-on-year to 25.580 billion yuan. At the same time, according to a quarterly report, Ping An’s life insurance reform project has entered the stage of comprehensive promotion and implementation. In this regard, Zhu Junsheng commented that it will take time for Ping An’s personal insurance reform strategy to pass down, and the reform effect is gradually showing.

In terms of property and casualty insurance business, in the first quarter of 2021, Ping An Property and Casualty’s comprehensive cost ratio was 95.2%, a year-on-year decrease of 1.3 percentage points; operating profit was 5.119 billion yuan, an increase of 15.2%; the “Ping An Good Car Owner” APP is the largest car in China Service APP, as of the end of March this year, the number of registered users exceeded 133 million, an increase of 5.1% from the beginning of the year.

Regarding the decline in the comprehensive cost rate of Ping An Property & Casualty Insurance, Zhu Junsheng analyzed that the company’s strong risk control management and good customer segmentation led to a decline in the comprehensive cost rate. Therefore, it still achieved better operating performance under the background of the comprehensive reform of auto insurance.

In terms of asset allocation of insurance fund investment portfolios, the first quarterly report shows that as of March 31, 2021, the scale of Ping An Insurance’s investment portfolio reached 3.78 trillion yuan, an increase of 1.1% from the beginning of the year. At the same time, the annualized net investment rate of return on the company’s insurance fund investment portfolio in the first quarter was 3.5%, and the annualized total investment rate of return was 3.1%.

The findings are largely as expected but still have many unanswered questions. This report has provided more in-depth details on the explanation behind the team’s conclusions. The report’s authors also propose further research on this except for the laboratory leak theory. The publication of the WHO report on the origin of the COVID-19 epidemic has been repeatedly delayed and raises questions about whether the Chinese side is falsifying the conclusion, to avoid accepting accusations that China is the place the origin of the pandemic. An official from the World Health Organization said over the weekend that the report is expected to be released “within the next few days”. The AP news agency said it had received what appeared to be the final version on March 29 from a WHO diplomat. It is not clear if the report will still be changed prior to publication. The diplomat does not want to be identified because they are not allowed to release the report before the final release is made public. The publication of a joint report between WHO and China on the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic has been repeatedly delayed. Photo: Reuters Researchers have listed four possible scenarios for the origin of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Topping the list is transmission by an animal, which is most likely to occur. Researchers believe that the possibility of transmission through “frozen” food is also possible, but not high. The closest animal found to carry the corona virus, believed to be the source of COVID-19, is the bat. However, the report said, “the evolutionary gap between bat viruses and SARS-CoV-2 is estimated to be several decades, which suggests an uncertain association.” Viruses are also found in pangolins, the report says, and animals like weasels and cats are also susceptible to COVID-19. This shows that all of the above animals can be carriers. This report is based on the visit of an international team of WHO experts to the city of Wuhan, China where COVID-19 was first discovered. The group has worked from late mid-January to mid-February. Mr. Peter Ben Embarek, WHO expert who led the investigation team in Wuhan, said the report has been finalized and is being checked and translated. “I hope that in the next few days, the whole process will be completed and we can make this report publicly available,” said Peter Ben Embarek. The draft of the report does not conclude that the outbreak began at a seafood market in Wuhan – where the first outbreak was discovered in December 2019. Previous discovery of other infections has suggested that epidemics could have started elsewhere. The report notes that there can be milder cases that go undetected. As the pandemic spread globally, China found virus samples on frozen food packages introduced into the country, and it tracked the link between single outbreaks and these products. Frozen foods can be the cause of cross-border spread of viruses, the report confirms, but are unlikely to cause an outbreak, much less contagious than through transmission. Human-to-human respiration. “Although there is some evidence that the SARS-CoV-2 virus can be revived through contaminated frozen products imported into China since the beginning of the pandemic, this would be very unreasonable. usually in 2019 because then the virus is not widely circulated, ”the study said. sea ​​oats ( According to AP )

On March 30, the World Health Organization (WHO) and China released a joint report on the results of investigating the origin of the SARS-CoV-2 virus causing pandemic COVID-19, radio ABC (USA) reported. The report summarizes the results of the survey from January 14 to February 10 by the WHO expert group in China – an effort seen as the first step in the work that could take many years to find the source. COVID-19. Some members of the WHO investigation team (sitting in the car) surveyed at the Wuhan Virus Research Institute on February 3. Photo: REUTERS The report repeated many of the conclusions discussed by the expert group at the end of the mission in China and drew a clearer picture of the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic. Four hypotheses about the source of the SARS-CoV-2 virus to humans ABC has pointed out four hypotheses about the source of SARS-CoV-2 virus infection to humans are mentioned in a report published by WHO and China on March 30. 1. Is the virus transmitted directly from animals to humans? According to the WHO report, the SARS-CoV-2 virus can or is highly likely to have been transmitted directly from animals (most likely from bats) to humans through farming, hunting or close contact. difference between human and animal. 2. Is the virus transmitted to humans through an vector of an vector? According to WHO, there is a very high possibility that the SARS-CoV-2 virus from the original pathogen (bat) has been transmitted through mediators such as weasels, pangolins, rabbits … and humans are infected by exposure to secondary pathogens. this level. 3. Can people get a virus through frozen food products? According to WHO, this could happen. This means that people can become infected when they come into contact with frozen food contaminated with the bio-waste of animals infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus (without the need to come into contact with the original pathogen). 4. Is there a virus leak from the lab? This so-called “highly political” hypothesis has been repeatedly rejected by experts from China and the WHO. According to the latest WHO report, it is extremely unlikely that the SARS-CoV-2 virus is a product from a certain laboratory in China. Although assessing the SARS-CoV-2 virus leak hypothesis from the laboratory as unlikely, WHO Director-General Tedros noted that the experts have considered all the hypotheses and need further research to bring to make more certain conclusions. Hoa Nam Seafood Market is the “super infectious” nest, not the place where the epidemic begins According to WHO data, the first case of COVID-19 infection has been linked to the Hainan Seafood Market in Wuhan City, Hubei Province (China). WHO experts have taken large-scale samples at the Hoa Nam market – including samples from the environment, food and animals in the market. A total of 718 environmental samples were collected at Hoa Nam market and 14 samples were collected from warehouses related to Hoa Nam market. Some samples from the environment showed traces of the nucleic acid of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and some even showed virus isolation results. However, no trace of SARS-CoV-2 virus was found in market animals. Some members of the WHO investigation team came to investigate at Hoa Nam market in late January. Photo: REUTERS Meanwhile, the genomic sequences of several (human) cases related to the region are identical, leading scientists to speculate that the Hoa Nam market is a “super infectious” nest. Along with some analysis of the distribution of the SARS-CoV-2 virus variants, experts are continuing to examine the possibility that the SARS-CoV-2 virus appeared in the Hoa Nam market due to frozen products. The way to find the origin of COVID-19 is still very long WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus noted that “this report is a very important start but it is not the end point”. “We have yet to find the origin of the virus (SARS-CoV-2) and we must continue to follow the scientific recommendations and find out all possibilities as we are doing,” Tedros said in press conference on 30-3. Although many argue that the WHO March 30 report is nothing new, Dr. Ian Lipkin – Director of the Center for Infections and Immunology at Columbia University (USA) – describes it as a “extreme report. detailed and complete period “. Mr. Lipkin noted that what the scientists are trying to do is “re-enact events from a year and a half without the complete data and biological samples” so it could take years, or even never before. Now, find the exact conclusion. However, Mr. Lipkin reiterated that before the WHO expert group came to China, several routes of infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus were envisioned and the WHO report provided possible data. prove those hypotheses. Meanwhile, Professor Vincent Racaniello – an expert in microbiology and immunology also at Columbia University – said that scientists were “lucky” to find clues about the origin of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Mr. Racaniello reiterated that after many years, scientists have yet to find the origin of the Ebola virus.

“4D superstar” continues to share: “One of the things I regret most when I was in school was smoking. All of the bronchial tubes in my lungs are damaged by smoking. In 2011 when I hosted Radio Star, I also said that I regretted smoking when I was in school. Back then my cousin was in high school. I heard that someone in class posted screenshots of the part I said I regretted smoking. My cousin’s friends asked her, “Isn’t that your cousin?” I still remember that. With these shares, Heechul just wants to talk about the harmful effects of smoking and does not encourage young people to follow suit. But it seems, Knetz is quite “difficult”. There are many opinions that the male idol is bragging about his “playfulness” when he was still in school. But there are also comments in favor of the male idol, they understand that Heechul is just trying to propagate so that people understand the harms of tobacco and “press report” the comments that intentionally “distort” Heechul’s words.

Global IPO transaction volume increased by 85% year-on-year, and fundraising increased by 271%

IPO activities of special purpose acquisition companies are more active than in 2020

The first quarter of 2021 is the best-performing first quarter in two decades

The market sentiment has been active so far in 2021. Calculated by the number of transactions and the amount of funds raised, it has been the best first quarter for the same period in the past two decades. Although the market conditions in the first quarter were traditionally quiet, the first quarter of this year broke the tradition and transactions were very active. Not only the traditional IPO market is active, but also the IPOs of special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) have also reached new highs. Both the number of transactions and the amount of funds raised in the first quarter were higher than those of the whole of 2020. There were a total of 430 transactions in the global IPO market in the first quarter, raising US$105.6 billion, an increase of 85% and 271% year-on-year respectively.

The “new normal” under the new crown epidemic has stimulated market liquidity and brought new opportunities, and promoted the continuous rise of IPO market sentiment. At the same time, speculative transactions and non-institutional investment platforms that are open to the general public (including the younger generation) have become more popular, making investment more convenient than ever. Looking ahead, due to concerns about the imminent adjustment of the market, investor sentiment remains cautious and will continue to use existing liquidity to obtain investment returns.

The Americas market remained resilient in the first quarter, with 121 transactions and a total of US$45.2 billion in funding. On the whole, the trading volume and funding of the Americas Exchange are the highest in more than two decades. The Asia-Pacific region has the highest IPO funding in two decades, with 200 IPOs totaling US$34.3 billion. The Europe, Middle East, India and Africa (EMEIA) region recovered from the quiet market sentiment of 2020 in the first quarter of 2021, and recorded 109 IPOs with a total amount of US$26.1 billion.

From an industry perspective, the technology industry remains strong in the first quarter of 2021, ranking first with 111 IPOs and US$46.1 billion in funding. The healthcare industry ranked second, with 78 IPOs and a total of 14 billion U.S. dollars raised. Calculated by the number of transactions, the industrial products industry ranked third with 57 transactions and a total of 6.3 billion U.S. dollars in funding.

Ernst & Young Global Listing Services Director Wu Jilong Means:

“Market liquidity has flooded the market, making the number of global IPO transactions and the amount of funds raised have reached new highs in two decades. However, many uncertain factors still exist, which may cause market fluctuations and affect the IPO market.

These factors include: the vaccination plan is slower than expected, and the ongoing epidemic hinders any real economic recovery; the tightening of the regulatory process has slowed down IPO applications and the withdrawal of listing applications by companies; the reduction of leverage by banks has led to increased risks in the capital market, etc. Companies need to prepare for listing while the opportunities in the IPO market are still open. ”

In the first quarter of 2021, the number of IPO market transactions and funds raised in the Americas reached a record high

In the first quarter of 2021, the number of IPO transactions in the Americas increased sharply by 218% (total of 121 IPOs), more than three times that of the first quarter of last year. Funding also recorded a stronger than expected trend, reaching US$45.2 billion, a 446% increase from the same period last year and a record high. The healthcare industry still dominates the region’s IPO transaction volume, with 44 transactions, raising US$8.7 billion. The technology industry ranked first in terms of funding, raising US$21.4 billion, with 33 transactions in total.

Similar to the global market, the US IPO market usually slows down in the first quarter. However, in the first quarter of 2021, benefiting from the continued transactions from 2020 and the high valuation led by issuers using technology companies, there were a total of 99 IPOs in the United States during the quarter, raising US$41.1 billion. The outbreak of SPAC IPO activities will continue into 2021, and the number of transactions in the first quarter of this year has broken the record for the entire year of 2020. Although the number of traditional IPO transactions on US exchanges has also risen sharply in the first quarter of this year, the number of SPAC IPOs is still three times that of traditional IPOs. In the first quarter of 2021, there were a total of 300 SPAC IPOs in the United States, raising a total of 93.4 billion U.S. dollars.

The Asia-Pacific IPO market beats expectations, and the momentum remains positive

In the first quarter of this year, IPO activities in the Asia-Pacific region accounted for nearly half (47%) of the global total. There were a total of 200 transactions in the district during the quarter, raising US$34.3 billion, the highest amount raised in the first quarter in two decades, breaking the record in the first quarter of 2010. As far as the industry is concerned, the technology industry surpasses other industries in terms of the number of transactions and the amount of funds raised. There are 51 transactions and US$17.7 billion in funding.

Cai Weirong, Head of Listing Services, EY Asia Pacific Means:

“This is the first quarter of the new year, and it is also the first year of the new president of the United States. The new team will handle Sino-US relations. In addition, entering the second year of the new crown epidemic, the market is both optimistic and full of optimism. Uncertainty, this may cause volatility in the Asia-Pacific IPO market in 2021. Companies in the Asia-Pacific region need to maintain resilience in this challenging environment in order to successfully go public.”

The strong IPO momentum in Greater China reflects its positive economic growth. Despite the implementation of the new IPO review process by Chinese regulators, the number of transactions and the amount of funds raised in Greater China have increased by 51% (total of 133 transactions) and 121% (US$28.9 billion) respectively year-on-year.

In Greater China, it is expected that the full implementation of the IPO registration system in Mainland China will have a positive impact on the capital market. The registration system is one of the most significant reforms in China’s capital market. The measures will help the market continue to develop in the long term. Together with the delisting mechanism and the newly released IPO approval process, it is expected that the quality of listed companies in Mainland China will gradually be optimized.

In Hong Kong, as economies around the world gradually get back on track and China’s concept stocks continue to be listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, Hong Kong’s IPO activities are expected to remain active.

He Zhaofeng, Head of Listing Services, Ernst & Young Greater China Point out:

“Driven by the economic recovery and abundant market liquidity, IPO activities in the first quarter of 2021 will remain strong. The tightening of the IPO approval process may have a certain degree of impact on A-share listing activities, but the country’s 14th Five-Year Plan It is also good for the listing of companies in related key industries. In Hong Kong, the return of Chinese concept stocks will boost the number of IPOs. Although the volatility of the capital market is expected to increase this year, we believe that 2021 will still be the largest IPO in Greater China. year. ”

EMEIA’s IPO market in the first quarter was more active, optimistic and more unicorns appeared

In the first quarter of 2021, the EMEIA area will take on the momentum of the fourth quarter of 2020 and have a good start. The continued growth of IPO activity in the region stems from high valuations, low volatility and confidence in the gradual restart of the economy. Overall, there were 109 IPOs in the district, a year-on-year increase of 179%. The amount of funds raised was US$26.1 billion, an increase of 646% year-on-year.

Despite the restrictions imposed by the new crown epidemic, the European market remains resilient, and investor sentiment has improved. IPO activity in Europe resumed its trajectory in the first quarter of 2021. The number of transactions rose by 315% (83 cases in total), and the amount of funds raised increased by 1,814% (US$23.1 billion). In the UK, investors are still interested in investing, and companies are taking full advantage of the accelerated growth due to the epidemic and the high liquidity of the market. There were 17 IPO transactions in the UK in the first quarter, raising a total of US$7.5 billion, an increase of 467% and 1,031% respectively.

Outlook for the second quarter of 2021: uncertainty may increase market volatility, triggering a “perfect storm”

Although market sentiment tends to be positive, uncertainties will increase, causing market volatility. The new crown epidemic in various countries around the world may still rebound. In addition, different countries’ vaccination schedules, geopolitical risks, inflation, interest rates and the ability of global financial markets to withstand shocks may all be the trigger points of the perfect storm. Regardless of whether the company decides to conduct a traditional IPO, SPAC or direct listing, companies that are well prepared, are in a hot industry, and have an appropriate investment story should act now and seize the trading opportunities that are still open.

Truong Thi, one of the wards in Vinh City, has many roads with very low installed traffic signs. Mr. Nguyen Van Thanh said that he was born and raised in Vinh City, witnessing many “revolutions” in urban embellishment in this city. Over the years, there have been many shortcomings about the construction of signs at intersections, intersections or some important contiguous points. The signs are made of hard materials but are set up too low, making it a trap for road users. “In fact, I have seen many pedestrians having their heads chipped because of the traffic signs,” said Thanh. Like Mr. Thanh, many other people also feel “eye pain” because the traffic signs are installed closely together. Over the past time, the system of secondary signs has also been installed unscientific, making many people “bored” when participating in traffic. “Although the accident occurred mainly because the person in the accident did not pay attention and collided with the signboard, if the traffic signs are raised as high as in other cities, there will be less unfortunate accidents” one resident said, shaking his head. Low installed traffic signs cause many unfortunate accidents for road users. PV’s observation shows that signs in Vinh City are set up quite low, even some wards such as Truong Thi, Le Mao … many side signs are only as high as the head of an adult, which is easy to endanger. Participants traffic. Photos recorded by reporters at some roads in Vinh City: In addition to traffic signs, some cultural works are also causing many dangers for pedestrians.

On March 30, Hongyang Real Estate (01996.HK) held an online performance conference as scheduled. Board Chairman Zeng Huansha led Executive Director and President Yuan Chun, Executive Director and Vice President Lei Weibin, and Chief Financial Officer Shen Guangping To attend a meeting. However, compared with previous years, there are fewer familiar faces on the podium.

On the day of the performance meeting, Hongyang Real Estate was exposed to the news of layoffs of 30%: the resignation of senior executives in multiple business lines, causing shocks in multiple departments; multiple departments need to determine the optimization list and complete the process before March 31. And the main reason for the layoffs is that Hongyang has reduced costs and increased efficiency due to lack of profitability.

The “Daily Business News” reporter verified this with Hongyang Real Estate, and the other party denied the rumors of layoffs.

Hongyang Real Estate delivered a relatively dazzling performance in 2020: revenue increased by about 32.9% year-on-year, gross profit increased by about 18.2% year-on-year, net profit increased by 13.4% year-on-year, and net profit attributable to parent increased by 13.2% year-on-year. In addition, contracted sales increased by 32.8% year-on-year, continuing to hit a record high.

However, Hongyang Real Estate’s gross profit margin has dropped by about 2.7 percentage points from 2019, and its net profit margin has also dropped to 9.2% from 10.78% in 2019. The reporter’s inquiry found that the two project indicators of Hongyang Real Estate’s gross profit margin and net profit margin have fallen for 4 consecutive years.

Yuan Chun also said at the performance meeting that in the future, it will be more necessary to practice internal skills to improve the profitability of Hongyang Real Estate.

“Hundred Billion” plan stranded

But there are many hidden worries behind the seemingly dazzling performance.

In 2017, Zeng Huansha set a “three-year 100 billion” plan, but at the end of 2020, the sales rating was 86.5 billion yuan, which is still quite far from the “100 billion” target.

Among them, the Yangtze River Delta contributed 80% of Hongyang’s sales, and Jiangsu’s sales alone reached 45.9 billion yuan. From the perspective of city level and energy level, the sales of new first-tier and second-tier cities accounted for 82.5%, which also led to the year-on-year increase in the average sales price of Hongyang (an increase of 10% to 14,622 yuan/square meter).

Perhaps because the sales growth in 2020 is not as good as expected, the management did not take the initiative to mention the sales target for 2021. If calculated on the basis of Hongyang Real Estate’s sales of 140 billion yuan in 2021 and the industry’s average sale rate of 60%, Hongyang Real Estate’s sales may reach 84 billion yuan.

But the premise is that it is necessary to guarantee the contracted payment return rate of 88% and above. Once the return rate drops, the current sales value that can be carried forward will also decrease, and Hongyang Real Estate may face the embarrassment of a decline in sales.

With a compound growth rate of 30% in the past three years, Hongyang has still failed to enter the “100 billion” threshold. However, at the performance meeting, the management of Hongyang Real Estate seemed to have changed their views on scale development.

“Under the background of the return of profitability and scale in the real estate industry, profitability is the foundation for the survival of the company.” Yuan Chun said at the performance meeting that for the current Hongyang, scale is not the first. A certain scale is necessary, but in the face of the current industry structure, there is no profit, and no matter how big the company is, it does not make sense.

4 consecutive declines in gross profit margin and net profit margin

It is true that profit is the core meaning of an enterprise, and this is also the biggest problem facing Hongyang Real Estate.

A reporter from the “Daily Economic News” found that the gross profit margin of Hongyang Real Estate from 2017 to 2020 was 40.58%, 31.25%, 25.14%, and 22.36%, which had declined for 4 consecutive years; the net profit margin was 19.47%, 14.32%, and 10.78, respectively. %, 9.2%, have fallen to single digits in 2020, and are far lower than the average net interest rate of 14.29% of the 50 typical listed real estate companies in 2019.

An industry insider who did not want to be named told the “Daily Economic News” reporter that the core problem facing Hongyang is that it has expanded rapidly in the past three years and has taken a lot of high-cost land. On the one hand, it has expanded its leverage and made great strides in order to add new goods. Value sacrifices profits, leading to low core profits carried forward in the report.

Looking back, it can be seen that Hongyang Real Estate began to expand in 2018. At that time, the changes in the policy of limiting land prices and housing prices have already appeared. The speed of real estate sales has slowed down, coupled with the increase in financial costs, which further swallowed profits.

“After 2020, under the new “three red lines” financing regulations, real estate companies need to lower their leverage in a short period of time to avoid continued business deterioration. For Hongyang Real Estate, it is even more necessary to reduce the pressure because its debt scale and leverage have already been used. Close to the extreme.” The above-mentioned industry insider said.

Delay in business

Commercial is regarded by many real estate companies as a means to boost profits, and Hongyang has also vigorously proposed a “commercial round”, and Hongyang Real Estate, which was born in a commercial store, seems to have such genes.

But the reality is that Hongyang’s reliance on residential development business has never been reduced. The annual report shows that in 2020, the operating income of Hongyang Real Estate is 20.159 billion yuan, of which 19.616 billion yuan for real estate development, accounting for more than 97%.

In fact, as early as the 2019 performance meeting, the management of Hongyang also specifically mentioned the business plan. However, in the 2020 performance meeting, there has been almost no mention of the part of heavy-asset commercial real estate.

“The main reason for the fading out of business is the low quality of operation.” A person familiar with the matter told the “Daily Business News” to tell reporters that the reason for Hongyang’s business is inseparable from the linkage with housing to obtain land. The actual operation quality of Hongyang Plaza, Home Furnishing Expo Center and other businesses is not high.

“For a business to operate well, it must first have a strong brand and strong enough IP to have the capital to hook up. Hongyang wants to learn from Xincheng, Wanda and Red Star Macalline, but it has not been in place. On the one hand, it is because its own cash flow is not enough. Sufficient, and the financing cost is not low enough. On the one hand, the brand premium and product standardization are not enough to gain a foothold in cities with strong competitors.” The above-mentioned insiders bluntly said that it is already very difficult for ordinary enterprises to obtain land by business, and Hongyang does not dare to do so. Shen does not have much advantage in the face of powerful opponents in second- and third-tier cities.

Therefore, there is only one way for Hongyang Real Estate: sinking and deep ploughing. Hongyang is also aware of this problem. At the performance meeting, Zeng Huansha positioned its development strategy in 2021 as “to expand Jiangsu, cultivate the metropolitan area, and strengthen the central city”.

Focus on quality growth in the future

In-depth cultivation and thoroughness test the company’s refined management capabilities. This is the weakness of Hongyang, which relies on high turnover and high leverage.

Zhang Bo, Dean of 58 Anju Guest House Property Research Institute, told the reporter of “Daily Economic News” that the logic of scale is no longer feasible. Real estate companies must reduce their debts and adjust their balance sheets. They must change their thinking and refine operations. This is an inevitable choice.

But back to the manufacturing logic, the refined management of small real estate companies, that is, reducing costs and increasing efficiency is difficult to increase significantly in a short time. Because real estate is not a technology industry, and real estate companies don’t have much technology investment, they can only work hard on “cost reduction”.

“Hongyang announced the news of 30% layoffs on the day of the performance meeting. I don’t think it is surprising that reducing costs will inevitably lead to layoffs and cost control actions.” Zhang Bo said bluntly, relying on this “hard landing” method to reduce costs, trying to reduce costs. Increasing revenue is not long-term.

The reporter noted that since the end of last year, Hongyang executives have changed frequently. Executive President Zhang Liang, President Jiang Daqiang, and General Manager Han Cunlei of the Capital Management Center have left one after another.

In Zhang Bo’s view, Hongyang Real Estate should change its investment thinking. It should not only guard the second and third tier cities. The sinking may also force some goods-to-land ratios and profits. At the same time, it must also strengthen land acquisition and mergers and acquisitions. In addition to the main business, opportunistic investments must also be made to ensure profitability. In addition, focusing on one’s own waterway, making premiums and differentiation in products, these are the long-term solutions and are also the top priority of Hongyang.

Yuan Chun also said at the performance meeting, “Hongyang has entered the stage of the top 50 in the industry, and quality growth is more important in the future. Next, we will focus on core competitiveness and steady and quality growth.”

Strange creature in rice field in Huay Nam Rak village.

In particular, recently many witnesses in Thailand reported seeing an entity hovering in the air. They think it is an alien. How bad is it?

Strange creatures cause a stir

Early in the morning of August 31, 2005, the small village of Huay Nam Rak, located in Mae Jan district, Chiang Rai province, Thailand, about 780 kilometers north of Bangkok, seems to have become the destination of a tourist from there. other sex.

That morning, more than a dozen villagers near the area’s rice fields are said to have witnessed a humanoid creature hovering, about 75 centimeters tall, yellow skin, big red eyes, large head and ears, Small mouth, no arms, and thin legs.

The first person to see this entity was a man named Sawaeng Bunratchasak. At that time, he was cycling across a field when he saw this strange creature floating in the air.

At first, he thought it was a scarecrow, but when it flew up and moved like a living creature, even looked directly at him and nodded, he realized he was mistaken. Immediately, the man rode his bicycle in panic, returning to tell the others what he had just witnessed.

Curious people rushed to the scene to verify it and they saw the mysterious entity, believed to have been hovering around the clearing for over an hour.

Some describe it to look like a child, while others claim it resembles a robot or cartoon doll, as its movements jerk up and down and unnatural. Some people also believe it to be a ghost … In the end, aliens are a popular opinion.

This entity hovered across the field, seemingly with some force, nodding occasionally to viewers or giving them a “as if asking for help” look, then suddenly flew up and disappeared in the sky. God.

Some witnesses described the entity as being stretched and turned black, before soaring into the sky like a rocket, while others said it had soared into a glowing ball of light. in the sky. A witness named Sawaeng Boonyalak, 35 years old, said of the creature:

• The alien is about 70 cm tall, has golden skin and flat chest. Its mouth is very small, a hairless head, and its eyes and ears are also unusually large. Floating near the ground, it suddenly flew up to a treetop. After more villagers came to see it, it soared in a dazzling beam of light in the sky.

When news of the strange phenomenon spread, hundreds of curious people began flocking to the fields, including journalists. Local officials have opened an investigation into the matter, but there is no specific evidence of the rumored creature.

There were no traces of damaged rice in the field, no trace of this entity stepping on the ground, only the footprints of curious people who came to see it.

Witnesses sketched out the strange creatures they saw.

Aliens or dolls?

Unfortunately, the rural poor farmers see the strange entity but don’t have a camera to record it. However, they outlined what they saw.

The police suspect this incident, claiming the witnesses had been drunk and looked goosebumps, but everyone confirmed they were completely awake. In the peaceful village, where phenomenon like this had never happened, created a lively public opinion at the time.

Later, Tongmuan Pochailoet, a resident of a nearby village, recalled that he found an old helium-filled doll stuck in a tree at the beginning of the month and had recovered to hang outside his home, as a dummy. This doll, he said, is 90 cm tall, has an oversized head and small limbs.

It was effective in repelling birds that threatened his crops, but unfortunately lost it in a storm, two days before the strange phenomenon occurred in the fields in the village of Huay Nam Rak.

Thus, Tongmuan Pochailoet is certain that the entity seen is his lost helium doll. He said he did not speak earlier for fear of offending the villagers of Huay Nam Rak. He drew the sketch of his inflatable doll for the reporters, who in turn showed it to the witnesses.

However, they all said it did not look like the “alien” they had seen. The creature they saw could not be an inanimate doll but was very alive, moved its legs and head, and even looked directly at the viewer and reacted to them.

It also moves intelligently with its own power, sometimes even blocking the wind, and then shoots straight up into the sky. Those who saw it guessed it was not a helium doll.

Wisit Sittisombat, Mae Jan County Chief, did not comment on how many people visited Huay Nam Rak village, as there was no reason to stop them. On the positive side, villagers can make money selling food and drinks to tourists.

What is this strange entity really? Is it really a helium-pumped doll? If so, why not many people determine? Or is this a product of the imagination of simple, uneducated villagers? Either way, this phenomenon created excitement in a peaceful village at that time.
