Eight Chinese and foreign blockbusters gathered in the Spring Festival stalls, and watching movies became the custom of Spring Festival and New Year.

 With the release of Avatar: The Way of Water (hereinafter referred to as Avatar 2) extended to February 14th, this year’s Spring Festival film added a super 3D visual effect imported blockbuster on the basis of seven domestic blockbusters. This is the first time that a large film will be released during the Spring Festival holiday. This year’s Spring Festival movie market will be more abundant, and the audience will have more choices.

Family reunion during the Spring Festival is the best time for families to watch movies together. In recent years, going to see a movie during the Spring Festival holiday is not only a way of entertainment and leisure in Chinese, but also a ritual "New Year custom" for many families. Driven by eight Chinese and foreign blockbusters, this year’s Spring Festival is expected to set off another family movie craze.

Among the seven domestic films, Wandering Earth 2 was first scheduled to be released in the Spring Festival this year, reflecting the strong self-confidence of the film. Even in the face of the market situation that the box office of last year’s Lunar New Year and this year’s New Year’s Day was not as good as expected, the film did not shrink back.

The reason why Wandering Earth 2 is so emboldened is that it has a strong IP effect. The Wandering Earth, which was released in the Spring Festival of 2019, won wide acclaim from the audience with its magnificent, well-made special effects and sci-fi stories with China cultural connotations, and finally won 4.696 billion yuan at the box office, becoming the biggest dark horse of the year.

Second, with more abundant capital investment, the director Frant Gwo led the creative team to shoot and produce for four years, and the level of visual special effects is expected to continue to challenge the ceiling of domestic science fiction films. In terms of actors, besides Jason Wu’s continued leading role, many powerful actors such as Andy Lau, Li Xuejian, Sha Yi, Ning Li, Wang Zhi and Zhu Yanmanzi joined in, and the starring lineup was stronger than the first film.

Because of this, both the audience and the industry are full of expectations for the film, and the number of people who want to see Cat’s Eye and Taobao Film is currently the first in the Spring Festival. Up to now, the number of people who want to see cat eyes has exceeded 1.15 million.

Up to now, the number of people who want to see the costume suspense comedy Man Jiang Hong directed by Zhang Yimou has exceeded 960,000, second only to Wandering Earth 2. In addition to the golden signboard of Zhang Yimou, the film also stars Shen Teng, Jackson Yee, Zhang Yi, Lei Jiayin, Yun-peng Yue and many others, and it is also a popular film in this year’s Spring Festival.

Director Zhang Yimou, who is over 70 years old, still maintains a good creative state and innovative ability. Over the Cliff and Sniper released in the past two years are both excellent works with a double harvest at the box office. What surprises can this "Man Jiang Hong" bring to the audience? Looking forward to it.

Cheng Er wrote and directed, and the spy war blockbuster "Nobody" starring Tony Leung Chiu Wai and YiBo also received high attention. Tony Leung Chiu Wai’s acting skills and YiBo’s popularity have made many viewers want to see what kind of sparks can be generated by such young and old people with two male masters CP.

Director Cheng Er attracted many senior fans and young artists with the good reputation of "The Romance of Death", but the box office was not successful. This time, the pre-sale of "Nobody" leads the box office and is expected to achieve good box office results.

As the only pure comedy released this Spring Festival, The Exchange of Life, directed by Su Lun and starring Lei Jiayin, Zhang Xiaofei and Youhao Zhang, has certain advantages in genre. Su Lun’s last work "Living Together in Time and Space" was a surprise and won 900 million yuan at the box office. The performance of the new work in the Spring Festival file naturally attracted much attention.

Comedy films are just needed for the Spring Festival every year. Hi, Mom, which was released in the Spring Festival in 2021, unexpectedly grabbed 5.413 billion yuan at the box office, ranking third in the total box office list of China film history. The movie "This Killer Is Not Too Cold" released in the Spring Festival of 2022 also earned 2.627 billion yuan at the box office, becoming the biggest dark horse in the movie market last year. Judging from the pre-sale, it is very difficult for Exchange of Life to create another box office miracle, and the key is the word-of-mouth after the release.

"Bear Haunted with Me" Bear Core "is also a film scheduled to be released in the Spring Festival this year. As the latest work in the series of animated films "Bears Come and Go", the biggest advantage of this film is that it has a very stable audience and a clear market position under the strong IP effect, and its production level is becoming more and more sophisticated.

"Deep Sea" is an animated special effects blockbuster created by Tian Xiaopeng, the director of "Return of the Great Sage", which has taken seven years. It is expected by many cartoon fans. From the trailer, its visual effects are magnificent and colorful, and it is expected to reach the top level of domestic animated films. The biggest suspense is how the story is told.

"China Ping-Pong Fight Back" has table tennis as the mass base of the national game, with Yu Baimei and Deng Chao as the golden partners, and Deng Chao, Sun Li, Timmy Xu and other leading stars. Although it is a rare sports theme in the Spring Festival, the current attention is not too high, but if it is well received after the release, it is also possible to fight back.

Traditionally, the Spring Festival movie has always been the world of domestic films, but this year’s situation is different. On January 10th, according to the release notice of the digital version of Avatar 2, the film will be extended to February 14th in China.

This means that this super 3D visual effect imported blockbuster, which was released on December 16th last year, will be released throughout the Spring Festival, and together with the above seven domestic blockbusters, it will expand this year’s Spring Festival movie market.

Avatar 2 is not only the world’s top sci-fi blockbuster with visual effects, but also a family fun movie suitable for parents and children. Affected by the epidemic, the film was released in China on December 16th last year. Although it has earned 1.5 billion yuan at the box office, compared with its current global box office of more than 1.9 billion dollars, the box office potential in China has not been fully released.

This time, the film unexpectedly entered the Spring Festival file, which will become the first imported film released during the Spring Festival in China, making the supply of this year’s Spring Festival file more abundant, and the audience will have more choices, which is good for both the film market and the audience.

Judging from the fact that the key of Avatar 2 is extended for one month and the Spring Festival movies are no longer limited, the intention of the film authorities to protect the Spring Festival movie market is obvious. China film market has a new look in the New Year.

Once upon a time, the prime time of Chinese New Year’s Eve from the middle and late December to the New Year’s Day was the most explosive time in China’s film market, and the most heavy domestic blockbusters were often released at that time.

On the first day of the Spring Festival in 2013, Stephen Chow’s "Journey to the West: Demons" earned 120 million yuan at the box office, becoming the first Chinese film with a box office of over 100 million yuan in a single day in China’s film history, with a final box office of 1.246 billion yuan. Since then, more and more China audiences have chosen to watch movies with their families during the Spring Festival holiday, and the Spring Festival file has sounded the clarion call for overtaking the New Year file.

In the Spring Festival of 2016, The Mermaid, directed by Stephen Chow, won 3.391 billion yuan at the box office and topped the box office of China Film History at that time. The box office depth of the Spring Festival file was greatly excavated. Since then, with tens of thousands of China audiences in Qian Qian entering the cinema during the Spring Festival, the box office of the Spring Festival file has broken the film history record many times.

Family reunion during the Spring Festival is the best time for a family to watch movies together. In recent years, going to see a movie during the Spring Festival holiday is not only a fashionable way of entertainment and leisure in Chinese, but also a "New Year custom" for many families in China.

The phenomenon that the Spring Festival stalls have repeatedly raised the upsurge of watching movies has attracted the attention of film experts and the media. Rao Shuguang, president of China Film Criticism Society, once said in an interview with the media that "Spring Festival movies, as a folk culture, have been involved in the public spiritual life". Xinhua News Agency and other official media have repeatedly reported the cultural phenomenon that "watching movies during the Spring Festival has become a New Year custom".

On January 1st this year, the "Annual Inventory Report of China Film Market in 2022" released by Lighthouse Research Institute showed that the per capita movie viewing frequency in China was 2 times in 2022. This average person only goes to the cinema twice a year to watch movies. Many Chinese people choose to watch movies with their families during the Spring Festival holiday, so naturally they tend to choose cinemas with better viewing effects.

Wanda Studios is in a leading position in the industry in terms of hardware facilities and service standards. There are a large number of special cinemas such as IMAX, CINITY, Dolby Cinema and PRIMIE, which is an excellent choice for watching Chinese New Year blockbusters, especially special effects blockbusters such as Wandering Earth 2 and Avatar 2.

On January 14th, six films, Wandering Earth 2, Manjianghong, Unknown, Exchange of Life, Bears with Me, Bear Core and Deep Sea, opened for pre-sale. The release of China Ping-Pong Jedi Counter-Strike was postponed to the third day of New Year’s Eve, competing with other films at the wrong time.

According to the cat’s eye data, as of the publication of The Wind Vane for Film and Television, the pre-sale box office of Unknown, Manjianghong and Wandering Earth 2 ranked in the top three, and the total pre-sale box office of new films in the Spring Festival exceeded 200 million yuan.

This year’s Spring Festival, with the national people’s "Yangkang" in succession, driven by the above-mentioned eight Chinese and foreign blockbusters, the China mainland film market is expected to lift the craze of family viewing again. Looking forward to the Spring Festival file can get out of the epidemic haze and create another box office success!

China cooking master Dong Jidu died of illness — China News Network Sichuan News

  Zhongxin. com, Sichuan News, January 24th (Reporter He Yuqing) The reporter learned from the Sichuan Historical Society’s Sichuan Oral History Committee on the 24th that Dong Jidu, a master chef of China, former head chef of Jingchengyuan Restaurant of Chengdu Catering Company and co-chairman of the Association’s professional committee, died in Chengdu at 18: 00 on January 23rd, 2023, at the age of 79.

  This culinary master who wrote in the Annals of Sichuan Cuisine is not only proficient in Sichuan cuisine, but also bypasses western food and western pastry technology. His representative dishes include poached squid, dried fish wings, preserved chrysanthemum abalone, dried deer tendon, pigeon eggs with hoof swallows, and young chicken tofu pudding.

Dong Jidu is very supportive of the oral history of Sichuan cuisine.
Dong Jidu is very supportive of the oral history of Sichuan cuisine.

  Dong Jidu went to Chengdu Yaohua Western Food Department as an apprentice in 1961, and studied in Yulong Restaurant Chef Training Class in 1964, under the guidance of famous chef Xie Shaoyun. Later, I worked as a chef in Rong Paradise and Yaohua Restaurant. In 1979, he was admitted to Chengdu Senior Chef Training Course. After graduation in 1981, he was assigned to work in Jingchengyuan as a chef, and studied under the famous teacher Liu Duyun. During this period, he went to Jingchengyuan Restaurant in New Jersey, USA as a chef for two years in 1983. After returning to China, he also served as a professional teacher of Sichuan cuisine training class of the city catering company, and participated in the compilation of several Sichuan cuisine cooking textbooks. He has participated in the evaluation of Chengdu chefs’ titles for many times and was awarded the title of Chinese Senior Cooker Appraiser.

  In recent years, many Sichuan cuisine masters who witnessed the development history of Sichuan cuisine have passed away one after another. In order to carry out the rescue excavation of Sichuan cuisine culture and promote Sichuan cuisine to the world better, the Sichuan Historical Society’s Sichuan Oral History Committee was established in November 2022. Dong Jidu is also one of the co-chairs of the Sichuan Historical Society’s Sichuan Oral History Committee.

  In an interview with Dong Jidu recorded by the Special Committee on Oral History of Sichuan Cuisine of Sichuan Historical Society, this Sichuan cuisine master once revealed "the secret of learning to cook Sichuan cuisine"-"If you want to learn technology, go to the place where the old masters drink morning tea".

  Dong Jidu recalled that there was a Caotangzi tea shop in Dajin Street, Chengdu, where masters such as Liu Duyun, Zhang Songyun, Ceng Guohua and Mao Qicheng loved to drink tea. He used to go to the tea shop with Wang Kaifa and Li Defu in the morning to have tea with the grandfathers, and listen to their dragon gate array of Sichuan cuisine. At that time, Zhang Songyun had a sentence that impressed Dong Jidu-"In any case, we should make the best use of our raw materials and not waste them".

  In 1983, 39-year-old Dong Jidu was sent to Jingchengyuan, New Jersey, USA as a chef. At that time, Wang Development was also working as a chef in the American Paradise. On vacation, Dong Jidu hitchhiked to Rongyuan to discuss cooking with Wang Kaifa, and they often discussed it late into the night.

  "The departure of Master Dong Jidu makes us feel that the oral history of Sichuan cuisine is imminent, and it is necessary to race against time to record and preserve the cooking essence of more Sichuan cuisine masters in time." Li Zuomin, Secretary-General of the Special Committee on Oral History of Sichuan Cuisine, said that Dong Jidu was very supportive of oral history before his death, and donated the Sichuan Cuisine books and used Sichuan Cuisine utensils he participated in, leaving his mark on the development history of Sichuan Cuisine.

Baidu Post Bar-Beginner Chapter of Searching Skills for Dry Goods

In the impression of many people, Baidu Post Bar is a place with rich content, but some people are not very clear about how to find "dry goods" in the post bar. Rodin said: "There is never a lack of beauty in life, but a lack of eyes to find beauty." In fact, this sentence is also applicable to Post Bar: Baidu Post Bar never lacks dry goods, but only lacks the correct way to find them.

This small series of disgusting analysis brings you introductory and progressive articles on the use skills of Baidu Post Bar, hoping to help all those who seek dry goods to be a great beast to avoid "water"! Because there are many dry goods, in order to make it easy for everyone to master them, today I will introduce the introductory article on the skills of using Post Bar-clarifying interests and needs.

As a social platform with tens of millions of interests, Baidu Post Bar not only provides a wide selection space for long-term users, but also makes beginners a little dumbfounded: "Where should I start with so many themes and high-quality content?"

It can be said that for most users who are new to the post bar, the feeling of "scratching their heads" is caused by not finding a theme that meets their tastes and interests. Therefore, the meaning of the introductory article lies in: make clear the information category you need and find the corresponding topic!

The easiest thing to divide is the theme with "interest" as its dimension. Painting, singing, flowers, grass, small animals, idolize, etc. There are more than 17 million topics in the post bar, and you can find the same hobby here no matter how high or cold your interest is. As long as you have a clear interest, you can find the corresponding topic by searching for keywords or selecting the post bar classification on the left side of the post bar homepage.

How to find dry goods after entering the interest bar? Take "Hand-painted Bar" as an example. When you enter the bar, you can click on the "Boutique" tab to quickly browse the high-quality dry goods stickers produced by a large number of cattle people in the bar! You can also select sub-items such as "Resource Tutorial", "Friends Drawing" or "Boutique Map" by sorting labels. In the boutique stickers and different categories of sub-items, you will find that the post bar is simply crouching tiger, hidden dragon and unfathomable! Xiaobian casually PO a few posts, you feel …

In just one "hand-painted bar", there is everything from 3D wall painting, figure sketch to scenery sketch. Who dares to say that there is no dry goods in the post bar? Other art themes, such as "Watercolor Bar", "Oil Painting Bar", "Sketch Bar", "Illustration Bar" and so on, are countless in Xiaobian, so it depends on your interest!

Baidu Post Bar also has many topics other than hobbies, such as local bars and campus bars. I miss my alma mater for a while, and it may be the fastest way to understand the campus dynamics by posting it to find the theme of my alma mater.

At the same time, many students also solve their difficulties in learning through the theme of "College Entrance Examination Bar", "Senior High School Physics Bar" and "Senior High School Mathematics Bar". For example, in "Math Bar in Senior High School", there are many bar friends who post online questions for long-term obligations, provide math review materials for different grades, and sort out knowledge points and error-prone questions. There are even university parties who have already graduated. Out of their love for mathematics, they write their own test papers and provide them to the bar friends for discussion.

If you have a wide range of interests and don’t have a specific interest demand at the moment, some comprehensive fun bars can also satisfy you, such as Li Yi Bar, God Reply Bar, Connotation Bar, Skimming Bar and so on. This kind of theme bar’s boutique dry goods stickers may not be interested, but the theme is clear, but if you stroll around these bars for a few times, you will definitely stand at the forefront of network hotspots.

The above is the content of the introductory article on the use skills of Baidu Post Bar. From hobbies to study courses, from hometown, alma mater to fashion life, Baidu Post Bar can give you the most nutritious information and content. Are you more confident in fishing for dry goods on the post bar? Then what are you waiting for? Come and post it and try it!

After 80, 90 to 00, see the user accumulation and changes of Baidu Post Bar in the past 12 years.

With the accelerated development of the mobile Internet, the intergenerational differentiation of the post-80s, post-90s and post-00s is increasingly intensified, and it is difficult for social platforms or products to meet the needs of different age groups at the same time. However, Baidu Post Bar, a social platform with interest aggregation, is a rare case. Founded in 2003, Baidu Post Bar has gone through 12 years. The platform features of "young, energetic and interactive" keep it full of vitality, which not only allows users of all ages to gather here after 80′ s, 90′ s and 00′ s, but also allows people of different generations to release themselves here, showing amazing vitality.

As the largest Chinese community in the world, Post Bar has more than 1 billion registered users since its establishment 12 years ago. At present, Baidu Post Bar has more than 17 million different themes, bringing together 300 million monthly active users. In the past 12 years, based on search keywords, it has precipitated a large number of users who are interested in the same topic on the PC side and the mobile side, including the core users of the Internet after 80 s and 00 s.

At the beginning of its establishment in 2003, Baidu Post Bar was the main user of the Internet and social networks after 1980s. At that time, Post Bar successfully attracted a large number of post-80s users to join, from local bars to various interests. After 1980s, it continued to contribute a large number of high-quality original content, which also gave Baidu Post Bar a young, dynamic and interactive platform feature. Since 2011, with the popularity and rise of the mobile Internet, Baidu Post Bar has also successfully transformed into a mobile terminal, which continues to attract Internet aborigines’ post-90s and post-00s users. Today, 80% of users’ behaviors of Post Bar come from mobile terminals, and more than 60% of users are post-90s and post-00s.

Every generation of users brings new network culture to Post Bar.

The post-80s generation, who have become the backbone of the society, played a pioneering role in the early days of the establishment of Baidu Post Bar. Most of them are the first generation users of social networks, who are brave in exploration and relatively calm. Compared with the post-80s generation, the post-90s generation has stronger self-awareness and more independent thoughts. As an aborigine of mobile Internet, the post-00 generation is characterized by independence, precocity and desire for self-expression. And each generation of users not only left footprints with obvious characteristics, but also created their own Internet pop culture with the help of the Post Bar platform.

The network hot words such as "Jia Junpeng" and "diaosi culture" can best represent the intergenerational characteristics of the post-80s generation. In 2011, Baidu Li Yiba gave birth to the word "diaosi", which not only appeared in People’s Daily, but also entered the mainstream vocabulary of the society, and became the favorite of the public to ridicule themselves to relieve stress. After 80s, netizens created a series of roles for Diaosi, ranging from "Gao Fushuai" and "Bai Fu Mei" to "earth and fat" and "ugly and poor", and formed a set of Diaosi culture with China characteristics.

Following the post-80s rebellion and self-mockery, the typical post-90s posting event is "Ye Liangchen phenomenon", which shows the psychological and social behavior characteristics of post-90s users. In September 2015, Baidu Post Bar first showed a domineering screenshot of Ye Liangchen’s chat, which made Ye Liangchen and "You just need to remember that my name is Ye Liangchen." Quotations quickly spread all over the internet. Now, Ye Liangchen has released his solo single "Be Your Protector", officially announcing his entry into the entertainment circle. It is precisely because of the platform of Baidu Post Bar that ordinary people like Ye Liangchen quickly became popular.

Compared with post-80s and post-90s, post-00s, as an Internet aborigine, are more eager to express themselves and publicize their individuality in Baidu Post Bar. After 00, there was a century war in Baidu Post Bar. "Star Rice" (fans of Korean idol group EXO) and "Four-leaf clover" (fans of domestic idol group TFBOYS after 00) both have their own base camps in Baidu Post Bar. They have been competing for the first place in idol popularity on Baidu Post Bar for a long time, competing to create more attention with various activities. After 00, they are more eager to seek the attention of others by expressing themselves. Their independent personality is evident in Baidu Post Bar.

12 years of ecological accumulation has created a gathering place for young people.

In addition to their interests, the younger generation of users can get together in Baidu Post Bar on topics of common concern, common experiences, the same region and the same personality tag. Anyone can set up a theme based on any keyword. This keyword-based community model makes Post Bar a paradise for communicating with friends and a group of people with common concerns.

As the product manager of Baidu Post Bar said: "Post Bar is based on search, and it directly enters the scattered distribution structure through search. Any person’s interest, even if it is small, may establish his own organization and gather a group of people with the same interests. This kind of structure provides a stage for those who are usually difficult to show up, and truly respects everyone’s interest and personality. Here, every individual is the protagonist. "

Although the users of Post Bar are constantly updated with the intergenerational changes of the online crowd, what has never changed is the attraction of Baidu Post Bar to the youngest user group. No matter after 80, 90 or 00, you can find your own organization in Baidu Post Bar and find a sense of belonging. The platform features of youth, vitality and strong interaction have enabled Baidu Post Bar to maintain its vitality in the ups and downs of other social platforms for 12 years, and it has also continuously attracted generations of young people to join and become a witness to their youth.

Tank 300 finally began to fight back. The new model provides 2.4T diesel, and the design is only fine-tuned for details.

This car, it’s interesting! Today, I will talk to you about the newly exposed tank 300 diesel version. As a veteran of hard-core cross-country circles for many years, I have to say that the tank is serious this time.

1.

Appearance: Hard-core colors remain unchanged.

Judging from the declaration map of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the overall shape of the new model has not changed much, and it still maintains the tough cross-country style.With a body length of 4750-4775mm, a width of 1930mm and a height of 1903-1927mm, this size belongs to a very existential level in a compact SUV.

It is worth mentioning that the approach angle of the tank 300 can reach 33/34 degrees (depending on tyre size) and the departure angle is 30/33 degrees, which is already very good at the same level. I thought, this is going to the wild!

2.

Power system: diesel is the soul of the hardliners.

The biggest highlight this time is undoubtedly the 2.4T diesel engine. The maximum power of 137kW is a little less than the 167kW of the 2.0T gasoline version, but don’t forget that the most valuable thing for diesel engines is torque!According to my experience in these years, the peak torque of this machine should reach about 400 N m.

Speaking of this, I have to mention something that all off-road players know-the torque output characteristics of diesel engines in the low speed range are simply born for off-road. Climbing, wading and crossing obstacles, the diesel version is definitely more powerful than the gasoline version.

3.

Practical configuration: full of sincerity

This car, something! Especially those off-road configurations:

Full-size spare tire (this is a life-saving thing)External spare wheel rack (easy to access)Luggage rack (necessary for camping)2500kg towing capacity with brake(This data is very honest)

What makes my eyes shine most is that I can also choose to install a trailer power device. This shows that the tank is really considering the needs of cross-country players.

4.

Market positioning: pointing directly at the hard-core market

Judging from the information currently exposed, the diesel version of Tank 300 is obviously aimed at a hard-core off-road vehicle like BJ40. But I have to say that the product strength of tanks is indeed expected:

9AT gearbox (expected)Four-wheel drive system *265/65R17 and 265/60R18 tires are optional.

5.

Brother su, get to the point

1.Reasons for buying a diesel version

Low speed and large torque, better off-road performance.Good fuel economy, long-distance self-driving is more affordableStrong towing ability, camping equipment hanging casually 2.Places to pay attention to*

Diesel engine maintenance costs may be higher.Winter startup needs special attention * Some areas may have limited policies.

6.

Give you a little advice.

If you are a friend who often runs long distances or likes cross-country, this diesel version is definitely worth waiting for. However, if it is mainly urban transportation, it is recommended to consider the gasoline version. After all, the use cost and convenience are better.

Finally, I’d like to throw you a question: What do you think is the appropriate market price for the tank 300 diesel version?

I wish you all success, good health, no pains, and enjoy the success.

Suspected 2025 Mazda 3 debut, 2.5T with four-wheel drive, would you choose it?

Compared with the past, the sales of the three major Japanese car companies in 2024 can be said to have plummeted, and even car companies like Toyota have not been spared. However, compared with these three major car companies, Japan’s "Mazda" is a brand that is too small to be ignored! Recently, however, foreign media have released photos of the 2025 model, and the new shape has really surprised many people.

From the appearance point of view, this Mazda takes a very sporty route. The wide body makes it look more calm, and its front face is also very simple. The net is polygonal, and the stars inside make it look both sporty and artistic. LED headlights, plus enclosed ones, are not inferior to Audi models in the light.

Scientifically grasp the attributes of emerging Internet platforms.

  The new generation of network information technologies such as Internet, big data, cloud computing and artificial intelligence are booming, and a number of emerging Internet platform enterprises are growing rapidly, which has profoundly changed the production and lifestyle in various fields of economy and society. The platform has increasingly become an important organizational model in the digital economy era, and its attributes are directly related to the governance rules and responsibilities of the platform, as well as the policy orientation of government supervision. A profound analysis of the attributes and characteristics of emerging Internet platforms is of great practical significance for implementing the requirements of inclusive and prudent supervision and building a new regulatory framework that adapts to the development of platform economy.

  How to understand the emerging Internet platform

  Driven by the new generation of information technology, all kinds of new services and applications are developing vigorously, and the platform organization mode is adopted to attract different user groups to settle in the platform, and by providing information services, the interaction or transaction between various users is promoted. It can be said that the emerging Internet platform is the organizer and important carrier of online market transactions.

  On the one hand, the emerging Internet platform is a market organization that mediates and links multiple groups to promote their interaction. Their common feature is to provide physical or virtual places for the interaction between different customer groups, provide intermediary services and maintain the order of the platform. Internet has broken the geographical and time-space restrictions, and enterprises can integrate multi-party resources on a global scale by building various innovative business application platforms. These emerging Internet platforms, as a new market organization, reduce the transaction cost between customers and maintain the order of transactions within the platform by setting up platform rules.

  On the other hand, emerging Internet platforms are online licensed platforms that provide information services or content services based on data and algorithms. In order to solve the problem that it is difficult to accurately match the cross-regional supply and demand information, the emerging Internet platform technically collects various data such as subject information, product or service information, user comment information, etc., and provides search, bidding, scheduling, payment, credit and other services with the help of software algorithms to match the supply and demand sides, improve transaction efficiency, and also need to obtain permission from relevant regulatory authorities.

  We should also see that the emerging Internet platform is gradually becoming a key link in the digital economy ecosystem. With the help of the advantages of network economy and relying on its advantages in the core business market, emerging Internet platforms penetrate into other fields, and finally build a digital economy ecological chain based on their respective core businesses. In the eco-chain, by publishing platform rules, platform enterprises clearly define subject access, behavior norms, content review, service quality, user protection, dispute resolution, illegal information prevention, etc., and set up corresponding incentive and restraint measures such as user evaluation and credit system. In fact, relying on the advantages of technology, computing, data and user scale, the emerging Internet platform has become the maker of platform operation rules, the maintainer of platform operation order and the carrier of platform digital ecosystem.

  How to Understand the "Facilities" Attribute of Emerging Internet Platforms

  With the increasing scale of users, market share and influence of emerging Internet platforms, some people think that emerging Internet platforms have become infrastructure or public utilities, others think that they are key information infrastructure, and others think that they are necessary facilities. The key to these different views is that the basic concepts of different "facilities" have not been clarified.

  Emerging Internet platforms are different from traditional infrastructure or utilities. Traditionally, infrastructure or public utilities usually refer to physical facilities, assets and networks, such as power grids, oil and gas pipelines, etc., and also include new infrastructure such as industrial Internet and Internet of Things. These physical facilities have high replication costs and low substitutability. The emerging Internet platforms are mostly composed of remote server clusters or data centers, application program interfaces (API) for third-party merchants, application programs (APP) for user terminals or websites, which have the characteristics of light asset scale, rapid business change and many alternative products. Its key assets are big data resources and algorithm libraries, and its competitive advantages come from technological innovation, network effects and economies of scale. Therefore, they are quite different from each other in terms of business access, competitiveness, market barriers, economic and social influence and supervision orientation.

  Whether emerging Internet platforms can be included in the scope of key information infrastructure remains to be clarified by national laws and regulations. Critical information infrastructure refers to network facilities or information systems that may seriously endanger national security, national economy and people’s livelihood and public interests once they are destroyed or lose their functions and data are leaked. At present, the scale of large-scale platform users in China is generally above 100 million, and the business volume and income reach more than several trillion yuan. Once it is destroyed, it will affect a wide range. At present, to bring emerging Internet platforms into the scope of key information infrastructure, it needs to be formally defined by relevant national legislation, and it needs to be considered from the perspectives of network security and data security.

  Whether the emerging Internet platform is a necessary facility needs to be defined according to its commercial behavior and market competition conditions. Necessary facilities is a term in the field of anti-monopoly, which is closely related to monopoly position and market competition. The principle of necessary facilities derived from this means that monopoly enterprises with necessary facilities have the obligation to open their facilities for the use of third parties, including competitors. In practice, the identification of necessary facilities must meet a series of conditions, such as the necessity and feasibility of providing facilities access, the reproducibility of facilities, and the rationality of refusing to open. Whether the emerging Internet platform has a large number of users and participates in the competition on a global scale constitutes a necessary facility in the sense of anti-monopoly still needs to be judged in accordance with the anti-monopoly law and the competition constraints of its related markets, and it cannot be easily determined that it is a necessary facility.

  How to supervise emerging Internet platforms and their competitive behaviors?

  Compared with ordinary market competitors, emerging Internet platform enterprises need to bear corresponding responsibilities and obligations no matter what facilities they are identified as. In this regard, the regulatory authorities can adopt relevant strategies to promote healthy competition in the platform market and maintain fair competition market order.

  First, scientifically define the boundary and scope of "facilities". At present, the society generally has mixed concepts and misunderstandings about whether the emerging Internet platform belongs to infrastructure or necessary facilities. In this regard, we should first scientifically define the connotation and extension of infrastructure or necessary facilities, as well as their scope and boundaries, and avoid the definition of infrastructure being too wide and too broad. For emerging Internet platforms, we should scientifically define and identify their specific categories according to national laws and regulations, combined with the technical and economic characteristics and identification standards of these Internet platforms.

  The second is to play the role of the market and strengthen platform self-discipline. The Internet platform market presents a high degree of dynamic competitiveness, with a series of characteristics such as cross-border competition, subversive innovation, and multi-user ownership, which has strong constraints on the business behavior and governance rules of the Internet platform. We should fully respect the business rules and competitive logic of the Internet platform market, and realize that demand-side network effect and supply-side economies of scale will not only drive the market to present a winner-takes-all situation, but also stimulate potential competitors to focus on market segments and participate in market competition through technological innovation, network effect and service improvement. We should ensure the normal functioning of the market mechanism, reasonably define the responsibilities of platform enterprises, and provide self-discipline constraints for Internet platform enterprises.

  The third is to innovate the anti-monopoly policy of emerging Internet platforms. The original intention of the anti-monopoly policy is to protect fair competition in the market. Monopoly status itself is not illegal, but monopolistic behavior is illegal. When the market share of traditional market or infrastructure industry is highly concentrated, anti-monopoly institutions should be vigilant when enterprises adopt behaviors such as pricing below cost, bundling, market blockade, vertical restraint and discriminatory pricing. In contrast, when Internet platform enterprises adopt the above business strategies, in some cases, they will improve the efficiency of resource allocation and enhance the welfare of consumers. However, the international community has begun to pay close attention to their merger and acquisition of start-ups and then exclude potential competition. Therefore, we should follow the principle of reasonable inference, dialectically treat the commercial behavior and competitive strategy of the Internet platform, encourage benign fair competition, and promptly investigate and deal with the behavior of restricting or crowding out competition on the platform.

  Fourth, it is necessary to be cautious in supervising emerging Internet platforms. Considering that the platform economy, as a new thing, is still in the stage of rapid growth, we should adhere to the concepts of tolerance and prudence, neutral supervision and mild supervision, balance the relationship between supervision and innovation, innovate the traditional supervision framework in time, and create access rules in line with its operating characteristics. We should combine the characteristics of the bilateral market of the Internet market, dynamic innovation, platform competition, technological change and the costs and benefits of government supervision, constantly enrich the technologies and means of supervision and governance, innovate the collaborative governance mechanism with platform enterprises, and build a new type of supervision and governance system that adapts to the development characteristics of platform economy, participates in many parties and is compatible with incentives.

However, if we compare and analyze it horizontally, we can see that the price of the new C4L is still very competitive.

    In the 1.0-1.4L small displacement group, it can be seen that the 1.2THP leading manual version of the new C4L is 11,900 yuan lower than the sagitar T-power entry-level 1.4T manual comfort model, even the top-of-the-line model of the new C4L is 151,900 yuan, which is only 5,100 yuan more than the sagitar 1.4T comfort model. Moreover, it is equipped with such equipment as IDVR intelligent driving monitoring, LDW lane departure intelligent early warning, FCW pre-collision intelligent early warning and SAFEYE blind zone monitoring, which are also rare in the same class.

  Compared with Weilang’s 1.5T model, the starting price of the new C4L 1.6THP model is 11,000 yuan less, and even the official guide price of the elite version of the new C4L 1.6THP model is 2,000 yuan lower than that of Weilang’s 1.5T entry-level model. However, the new C4L still has certain advantages in terms of scientific and technological equipment, comfort equipment and safety equipment.
