Michael bay: How to be the richest Hollywood destroyer?

    Special feature of 1905 film network Michael bay, his movies can never stimulate your lacrimal gland, but they can keep your adrenal gland burning all the time. Fans call him an explosion maniac, and his fierce fighting and extremely destructive action scenes are his unique skills. People who have worked with him call him a tyrant on the set, and his fiery temper and amazing efficiency are well-known in the industry. Hollywood filmmakers call him the most attractive director in Hollywood after Steven Allan Spielberg. If you are willing to spend money with him, he will definitely spend every penny on the cutting edge. Michael bay, he has never been a master of film art, but he is definitely a different craftsman born under the Hollywood system.
 
Debut: MV director
 
    Michael bay is a native of Los Angeles. When he was a child, Beckham loved to play with volcano models, and once burned through the floor of his home, causing a tragedy. When he was three years old, he was seven years younger, and his strong desire for destruction had already appeared. David fincher, the famous director, became a member of george lucas Industrial Light and Magic Special Effects Company at the age of 19, while michael bay, who is three years younger than Finch, is a veritable "senior brother". At the age of 15, he became an intern in file management at Lucasfilm. The deepest memory that this job left for michael bay when he was a student is that on one screening, after watching the film, the audience all left with a puzzled look, and did not discuss endlessly as excitedly as the audience did. The 15-year-old Beckham has made a decision in his mind: I also want to make a blockbuster that will make the audience High.
 
    Michael bay majored in film and English at Wesleyan University. Unlike many directors who lost their jobs as soon as they graduated, he took the first business in his career — — Shooting MV for Donny Osmond, a red star in the 1970s. The owner of the record company left the fledgling young man with $160,000, so that he could do it at his own discretion. You know, the cost of filming in michael bay had never exceeded $5,000 before. Carrying this "huge sum of money", he carefully completed the task and earned the first barrel of director commission in his life — — 500 dollars.
 
    Michael bay, who was young and frivolous, quickly became famous in the industry by shooting MV. Later, invitations for advertising films from big companies such as Nike, Reebok and Coca-Cola came one after another. In the early 1990s, michael bay won the Golden Palm (Cannes Golden Lion Award) in advertising. In the filming of commercial films, Michael is also honing his personal ability to enter Hollywood, such as how to arrange the lights, how to capture the lens and the most important point — — How to tell the stars what to do.
 
    During the filming of an advertisement in the Mojave Desert, michael bay’s mother came to visit the class and watched her son command more than 200 people running around the studio. A helicopter rose and fell around him, and her mother was shocked. Michael said to his mother, "This is a cool money-burning war, and someone paid me to do it. Can you believe it?"
 
Success: from wage earners to major shareholders
 
    In 1994, Jerry Bruckheimer, a Hollywood gold medal producer, extended an olive branch to michael bay. In front of him, a play called "The Story of Two Miami Black Policemen Arresting Drug Dealers" was presented. Because the original script was so vulgar, Don Simpson, one of the co-producers, even refused to sign the film before the official shooting. Michael bay decided to start with actors. He chose will smith and martin lawrence, who were still unknown at that time, and the three brothers marched to Miami, first shooting the trailer, and then gradually enriching the details of the script. This also sets the tone of michael bay’s films from the side: vision is king. Looking at today’s film industry, it seems that the only person who inherits this crazy creative way is Mexican geek director robert rodriguez (representative).
 
    When shooting the scene of fierce fighting at the end of the film, the studio suddenly fell into a storm and the scenery was destroyed. At this time, the early funds of the crew had already seen the bottom. Seeing that the big-screen debut was about to be ruined, michael bay patted his thigh and took out $25,000 from his $125,000 director fee to complete the filming. In the end, "Jedi Men" won $140 million in the world at a cost of $19 million, and Michael won a good start. However, after the film was sold, Michael, who was in the forefront, was like a migrant worker, claiming the $25,000 from the producer. This passive experience has taught michael bay an important lesson.
 
    And the birth of two box office bombs, michael bay became the youngest "1 billion yuan box office director" in history, and the big productions placed in Michael’s hands were one after another. At this time, he decided to break away from the role of odd jobs for big studios and prepare to try a new way of playing for big directors.
 
    In 2000, michael bay took over the World War II blockbuster, which cost as much as 140 million US dollars. This time, he asked for a 50% profit share after deducting the shooting and advertising expenses. He became a shareholder of the film, of course, he was more careful and tried to spend every penny on the cutting edge. During the filming, he used high-level public relations to get rid of the US military and saved tens of millions of dollars for the film. In the end, this summer box office predator made michael bay a fortune of up to $40 million.

Old driver science: What’s the difference between mixing, inserting, light mixing and adding? How to choose?

Zhiji Automobile/Linjing Store

Recently, the tide of "power cut" has been set off all over the country, which has also brought a lot of anxiety to new energy owners. In fact, there is no need to worry. From the market situation, new energy vehicles are still the general trend.

In the past two years, many car companies have launched a variety of hybrid models, including HEV, PHEV, MHEV, etc., so there are small partners who are curious, mixed, mixed, mixed and mixed. Let’s talk to you briefly today.

Hybrid technology: Toyota Asian lion

Hybrid power refers to the use of two different power sources in the vehicle power system, which usually refers to hybrid power of oil and electricity, that is, on the basis of retaining the traditional internal combustion engine, the motor is used to provide auxiliary power.

This technology is mainly used in new energy vehicles, which is different from the power system of traditional vehicles. The hybrid power system can be flexibly regulated according to the actual operating conditions of the vehicle, so that the engine can always be kept in the best state of comprehensive performance, effectively reducing the fuel consumption and emissions of the vehicle.

When it comes to mixing, we must talk about Toyota, whose mixing has a history of more than 20 years. Not long ago, Toyota Asian Lion made its debut, which once again showed the public the real strength of Toyota in the hybrid field.

The Asian Lion is equipped with TNGA 2.0L jet flow control engine, which is small in size, light in weight, strong in power and low in center of gravity. The maximum power can reach 126kW, the maximum torque is 205N·m, and the fuel consumption is 5.7-6.0L/100km, which is energy-saving and environmentally friendly.

Matching with the engine is a 10-speed dual-drive CVT gearbox, which innovatively adds the starting gear set and adopts high-sensitivity shift control, so that the response performance is faster when starting and accelerating, and the driving pleasure is promoted to a new realm.

However, it should be noted that although it is fuel-efficient, it cannot enjoy preferential policies and subsidies in most parts of China, so it is necessary to consult clearly in advance before purchasing.

Hybrid technology: BMW X5

Different from oil-point hybrid power, the plug-in hybrid power vehicle is equipped with only one engine, and the battery system and power unit are added on the basis of retaining the fuel vehicle. The alternating operation of the two power systems can not only realize pure electric zero-emission driving, but also increase the driving range of the vehicle through hybrid mode, thus achieving the effect of energy saving and emission reduction.

Among many new energy competition models in the same class, BMW X5 New Energy has strong power and endurance performance.

The new BMW X5 plug-in hybrid provides a variety of driving modes, with a pure electric cruising range of 85KM. The whole vehicle is made of lightweight body materials, which brings higher bearing capacity and more flexible driving feeling, and enjoys the fun of electric driving.

B-series inline 6-cylinder engine with 8-speed sports automatic manual transmission, it only takes 5.6 seconds to accelerate 100 kilometers, and the comprehensive fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is only 2.2L Each gear has been carefully adjusted and graded, bringing smoother power transmission, not only enjoying ultra-low fuel consumption, but also enjoying efficient sports charm at will.

At present, the purchase of plug-in hybrid models can not only enjoy the preferential purchase tax, but also enjoy the unlimited green license as long as the pure electric cruising range is above 50km, which brings great competitive advantage to plug-in hybrid models.

Light mixing technology: mercedes benz c grade.

Light-mixed vehicles generally use pure electric power to start, which is different from the original power output mode of the vehicle. When starting the vehicle, there is not much vibration and noise. At the same time, the power recovery system is used to recover the wasted energy when stepping on the brakes and charge its own battery, so as to improve the driving performance and fuel consumption index of the car.

In China, it was Beijing Benz that first put the 48V light mixing technology into commercial production.

The new long-wheelbase mercedes benz c-class sports car is equipped with M254 inline four-cylinder engine, all of which are matched with EQ Boost 48V light mixing technology, providing an additional maximum power of 15kW and a peak torque of 200 N m..

At the same time, with the second-generation 48VISG intelligent motor system, the vehicle can respond quickly at the moment of starting, which greatly reduces the jitter and noise when starting, and brings a "trinity" driving experience of speeding up smoothly, driving quietly and saving fuel consumption.

However, although the 48V light hybrid is wearing a hybrid hat, it is actually a fuel vehicle, so it cannot enjoy policy subsidies, and the fuel-saving effect is not particularly obvious. At present, the light hybrid vehicle has also fallen into a passive and embarrassing position.

Mixing technology: Li ONE.

The engine displacement of extended-range hybrid vehicles is generally small, and the engine can always run efficiently when generating electricity, and continue to provide electric energy for the motor and battery.

The internal combustion engine of this kind of vehicle does not need too much power, and it can be recharged and refueled. Compared with traditional fuel vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles in the state of power loss, the energy consumption is lower.

Li ONE, with its extended-range hybrid system, quickly occupied a place among the new forces making cars.

The biggest feature of Li ONE is its mileage advantage. NEDC’s comprehensive cruising range can reach 1,080 km, WLTC’s comprehensive cruising range is 890km, and it is equipped with a 40.5kWh battery pack and an intelligent power generation system, which can fully meet the daily commuting needs of the city, not to mention traveling. The long cruising range can bring a worry-free travel experience.

However, the energy conversion efficiency of the blending technology is very low, and even the engine with the highest thermal efficiency at present, a large part of energy will be wasted in the form of heat energy.

Summary:

The above are the main hybrid forms at present. I believe everyone can understand them after reading them. No matter what technology, hybrid models are worth considering, but: it is not easy to build a car, and it is ok and cherished!

CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection: The first-in-command violates the law and is prone to chain reaction and even collapse.

  BEIJING, Nov. 23 (Xinhua)-Ma Senshu, director of the Regulation Office of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, recently made a guest interview on the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection website to interpret the Regulations on Inner-Party Supervision in the Communist Party of China (CPC). He said that top leaders at all levels play a key role in promoting the cause of the party and the state. At the same time, the behavior of leading cadres has a leading role, and the top leaders who violate the law and discipline are most likely to have a catalytic and chain reaction, and even cause regional, systematic and collapsed corruption.

  Ma Senshu introduced that party constitution’s general program clearly pointed out that it is necessary to "strengthen supervision over the leading organs of the Party and leading cadres in party member, especially leading cadres". The guidelines and regulations all emphasize that to strengthen and standardize the political life within the party and strengthen inner-party supervision, we must start with leading cadres, especially senior cadres.

  Ma Senshu introduced that the general regulations clearly stipulate that the key targets of inner-party supervision are the party’s leading organs and leading cadres, especially the main leading cadres. The responsibilities and systems stipulated in other chapters are designed around supervising the top leaders, which not only makes the top leaders’ decision-making, employment and personal matters more open and transparent through organizational and institutional innovation; Moreover, more supervision probes are set up, and attention should be paid to finding clues from patrol supervision, discipline review, audit and justice, letters and visits and reports, so as to make them under the supervision of party organizations, party member and the masses.

  He introduced that in the relevant provisions, it is also required to strengthen the supervision of the main leaders of party organizations and leading cadres in key positions, focusing on supervising their political stance, strengthening party building, strictly administering the party, and implementing party resolutions, selecting and employing people fairly and honestly, and being honest and self-disciplined.

  The higher-level party organizations are mainly responsible for the lower-level party organizations, and they usually ask more questions and remind them, and correct problems in time when they are found. If members of the leading group find that the main person in charge has serious problems, they should raise them in time. The personal matters related to the main person in charge of the party organization should be made public in a certain range within the party and take the initiative to accept supervision.

Can "Gemini Man" or a theater with a loss of $75 million be upgraded?


Special feature of 1905 film network With the release of, the slogan of "recognizing frames and watching movies" three years ago was shouted again.

According to the number of frames, there are three categories of this film in China: 24 frames, 60 frames and 120 frames. The 120-frame version is divided into two versions: Dolby Cinema which can play 2K definition and CINITY Cinema which can play 4K definition.


Both the cinema and the audience are expecting the performance of this film. But the day after its release, Ang Lee’s new film dropped from the single-day box office champion to the third place. The proportion of film arrangement on Monday also fell below 20%.


Someone has calculated an account for this action film with an investment of $140 million: judging from the current global box office revenue, Gemini Man may eventually lose $75 million. Among them, the estimated 200 million RMB box office in China has been regarded as the support of domestic audiences and cinemas for "An Shu" to make movies with heart.

On the second day of its release, Gemini Man fell from the single-day box office champion to the third place.

At present, there are 30 CINITY cinemas in China that can show 120 frames, 4K and 3D versions of Gemini Man. Three years ago, there were only one cinema in Shanghai and one in Beijing that could show the highest standard version, and the screening equipment was dismantled after the film went offline and was not used for long-term cinemas. 

Before "Gemini Man" this year, CINITY version has been produced, and it enjoys a separate ranking number, which ranks alongside IMAX and China Giant Screen.

More and more subdivided screening types and different cinema formats have made the screening market blossom, and the construction of cinemas is quite hot. Among many new cinemas, IMAX Hall and Dolby Cinema have become standard. So is it possible for Gemini Man to be regarded as a tipping point, so that the emergence of new cinemas will become a breakthrough in the next round of cinema upgrading and screen number growth?

"Twenty years ago, when I first entered the business, we only had 1,800 effective screens. The annual box office of China movies is less than 900 million, and most cinemas are closed. " Yu Dong, president of Bona Film, who started from distribution, said that the development of China films in the past 20 years could not be separated from the hard work of the whole industry of production, distribution and projection.

He believes that in today’s era, there must be a new format to invite the audience back to the cinema from the hands of short videos: "At this time, we are facing the impact of the small screen era and the challenges brought by massive videos. If the cinema does not strengthen its theater effect, we will be overwhelmed by these massive short video small screens."

In fact, the last round of "self-help action" in cinemas happened to be 10 years ago. The release of "IMAX3D" has made 3D movies extremely popular, and people have entered theaters one after another. It is even harder to get a ticket for this visual blockbuster version of IMAX 3D. A cinema investor recalled that in 2007, there were only 82 3D screens in China, and in August 2009, the number increased to 330, which was surprising: "At the end of 2009, there were more than 600 3D screens in China, while there were only more than 1,000 3D screens in Asia at that time, and China accounted for more than half." 

It is understood that the ordinary screen plays 3D movies because the brightness is not enough, so it is necessary to increase the power of the projection lamp, but it is easy to cause the xenon lamp to be damaged due to too high load. Therefore, when showing 3D movies, cinemas often choose metal screens with brightness coefficient above 2.0. Many screens in those days were not metal screens, so it is urgent to upgrade if you want to show 3D movies.

With the popularity of Avatar, many studios have been upgraded. Some insiders recalled the impact of Avatar screening on the domestic screening industry: the screening equipment in first-tier cities has already led the market. The popularity of Avatar, the box office profit created by the 3D version, and the first domestic 3D martial arts film of Avatar, these three reasons made the second and third tier cities with slightly backward hardware conditions complete the hardware upgrade of cinemas. 

After that, China also entered a period of rapid growth in the number of screens. By 2018, the number of screens in China has reached 60,000, of which more than 50,000 can show 3D movies. It can be said that the chain reaction triggered by a film has accelerated the upgrading and development of the whole industry several times.

"Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk" promotes cinema upgrade.

 

Since the screening of Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk, we seem to have seen a new round of cinema upgrade. In 2016, when this 120-frame, 4K and 3D film was shown in the Mainland, although the highest version only had two screens to show, there were about 20,000 screens that could show the 60-frame version. According to a user on the Q&A platform, the current projection equipment can show 60-frame versions, but many cinemas can only show 24-frame versions because of the old servers instead of projection equipment.

Companies in the field of film projectors and other equipment production also introduced on the Q&A platform: the main requirement for high-format projection is the processing power of the server. At present, mainstream media servers in the digital film industry can support 4K resolution and high frame rate of 120fps, but these two indicators cannot be met at the same time.

Recalling the release and screening of Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk in China, Yu Dong said: "We made a box office of 170 million. Many cinemas have been upgraded, and all the cinemas that can show up to 60 frames have been fully upgraded in that round. " However, he believes that it is difficult to establish a huge screening system with the help of one company. 

This time, the lead is the Chinese film with 120 frames, 4K and 3D platforms, and behind it is the strength of 19 enterprises and institutions. In addition to several major film groups and studios, Huaxia Film’s shareholders also include several major domestic cinema companies such as New Film Association, Lianhe Cinema and Pacific Cinema. Therefore, when Gemini Man was released, it was supported by three cinemas, namely Jinyi, Bona and Wanda. There were 30 screens in China, which could show the highest standard.

Ang Lee and Fu Ruoqing (first from right) appeared in the post-screening activities of Gemini Man.

Fu Ruoqing, chairman of Huaxia Film, said that due to equipment supply problems, 100 screens could not be rolled out as scheduled before the release of Gemini Man, but the cinema has placed an order for 100 CINITY cinemas. He said: "When Gemini Man was released on the 18th this year, CINITY had about 30 screens in 18 cities that could be released on the 18th as scheduled. By the end of October, there will be nearly 50 screens and 100 screens by the end of the year." 

So from the current point of view, in the three years from Billy Lynn to Gemini Man, the studios in China have been upgraded on the digital server. But at present, a CINITY cinema system has reached 5.5 million. For cinemas, the funds are huge. Fu Ruoqing believes that digital projection is a normal digital product in about five to six years. He has a favorable attitude towards the film investment company, the cinema and the film management company to continue to upgrade their projection equipment.

However, the fares of Gemini Man CINITY Cinema, Beijing and Shanghai have reached about 200 yuan; The fare in Hangzhou is higher than that in 100 yuan; Fuzhou even has a special ticket from 50 yuan. For first-tier cities, high-format movies still have high ticket prices.

In this regard, Fu Ruoqing also said that CINITY’s early development costs a lot, and hopes that it will drive down the overall cost in the future: "We also hope that the cost of shooting it by more people will drop, and the overall shooting quality will rise. Therefore, it is also a key thing to improve the overall quality of China’s film industry. I think it should be a very good thing. " It is understood that director Chen Kexin is shooting at a high frame rate.

"China Women’s Volleyball Team" was shot in high frame rate format.

From this point of view, compared with the upsurge of cinema upgrading and construction driven by Avatar, the high screening cost of 120 frames, 4K and 3D cannot be the motivation for the new round of renovation and upgrading of cinemas. But it has a far-reaching impact on the upgrading of screening quality. At the moment when the home entertainment system is constantly upgrading, cinemas really need to develop more top-level audio-visual experiences in order to attract the audience to the cinema.

Talking about the epidemic situation and commenting on the United States and Russia, Putin’s four and a half-hour press conference also talked about love and family.

  BEIJING, Dec. 17 (Reuters)-On December 17, local time, Russian President Vladimir Putin held a large-scale press conference in 2020. In four hours and 29 minutes, Putin answered 60 questions, covering domestic and foreign issues such as the COVID-19 epidemic, economic transformation, Russia-US relations, and the arms race.

  Talking about the epidemic situation: COVID-19 will actively promote vaccination.

  Putin said at the beginning of the press conference that the coming year has both gains and regrets, but the main problem is the Covid-19 pandemic.

  Putin said that Russia’s Covid-19 detection capacity ranks among the top three in the world, and the "satellite V" vaccine developed by Russia is highly effective. So far, there has not been a case of serious side effects after vaccination of COVID-19 vaccine made in Russia. Vaccination in COVID-19 will only be carried out on a voluntary basis.

  At present, there are many rumors about the source of Covid-19. Putin said: "What we have to do is not to find the responsible party, but to unite to solve the problem."

  Influenced by the COVID-19 epidemic, the press conference was held in a different form. Putin had a long-distance communication with reporters in the official residence of Novo Ogaryovo in Moscow State.

  Talking about internal affairs: Putin has not yet decided whether to participate in the 2024 presidential election.

  For Russia’s presidential election in 2024, Putin said that he has not made a decision whether he will participate. "The stable development of the country is crucial. Formally speaking, the people allow me to participate, but whether to do so needs to be seen again."

  Regarding the poisoning incident of Russian opposition figure Navalny, Putin said that Russia will launch an investigation and call on the West to provide relevant information. "We are willing to investigate. If anyone has information about the use of chemical weapons, he has always said yes to this matter &lsquo; Novichok &rsquo; &mdash; &mdash; Please provide this information. "

  Putin revealed that Russia’s gross domestic product (GDP) is currently falling by 3.6%, which is lower than that of the United States and many European Union countries. However, a positive factor in economic development is that Russia has begun to get rid of its dependence on oil and gas, and 70% of Russia’s budget does not depend on oil and gas income.

  Talking about diplomacy: I hope Biden will solve Russia-US relations.

  Regarding the relations between Russia and the United States that have been concerned by the outside world, Putin said that Russia did not interfere in the US election, and "the State Council and intelligence agencies in the United States are the authors of rumors about hackers involved in Russia". The development of bilateral relations between Russia and the United States has always been constrained by American policies, and it is hoped that US President-elect Biden can solve the problems existing in bilateral relations.

  In addition, for the prospect of Russia-Ukraine relations, Putin said, "This depends largely on the Ukrainian government."

  On the Nagorno-Karabakh issue, Putin pointed out that Russia’s position is "peaceful settlement and avoiding bloody conflicts."

  When talking about the situation in Belarus, Putin said that the Belarus issue can only be solved by the Belarusian people themselves.

  Talking about the military: Russia does not intend to get involved in the arms race, but it will ensure its own security.

  When talking about western countries’ dissatisfaction with Russia in the field of military strategy at a press conference, Putin said: "You are smart people, why do you treat us like fools?"

  Putin said, "As for the arms race, I would say that it has already started &hellip; &hellip; We will not get involved, but we will protect our own safety.

Data Map: On June 24th, local time, a military parade was held in Red Square, Moscow, Russia to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the victory of the Great Patriotic War. Affected by the Covid-19 epidemic, the security guards around the parade wore masks and gloves. China News Service reporter Wang Xiujun photo

  Putin stressed that Russia only has overseas military bases in dangerous areas with terrorist tendencies.

  Regarding the Russian sea hypersonic missile "Zircon", Putin said that the recent test is very important, and its inclusion in the Russian army will affect the balance of strategic forces.

  At the press conference, Putin also said these things &hellip; &hellip;

  Apart from domestic and foreign affairs, Putin also answered some other questions with philosophical words.

  At the press conference, a 10-year-old boy asked Putin, "Why don’t other countries like Russia, because Russia has done nothing?". In this regard, Putin replied that this is a relationship between adults, and the ties between people are still very strong.

  Putin also said that the important secret of family happiness is love, which should also be the cornerstone of international relations. He said: "As for the secret of family happiness, it is love, but it is no secret."

Palm oil bottom support is strong

Although there are still uncertainties in macroeconomic policies, and it is expected that the increase in imports in the second quarter will also have a negative impact on the palm oil market, palm oil, as an agricultural product, is relatively less affected by policies and more affected by fundamental factors. It is expected that palm oil in the market outlook will oscillate upward under the support of good economic recovery momentum, serious upside-down prices of internal and external markets, the arrival of the peak consumption season and dry weather.

  In 2009, the domestic oil market as a whole went out of an oscillating upward trend. However, palm oil and soybean oil, the two most active oil varieties, reached the highest point in the year in early December 2009. In early 2010, under the influence of negative factors such as the increase of the deposit reserve ratio by the central bank of China and the debt problem in the euro zone, the futures price began to fall sharply, reaching 8.1% and 8.6% respectively in just one month, and in 2010, it was "black". However, since February, driven by the sharp rise in the futures price of crude oil in the outer disk, soybean oil and palm oil have bottomed out, and by the end of February, the futures price has rebounded by 50% of the decline in January. The trend in February boosted the confidence of market investors and made more investors place higher expectations on March. However, after the national macro data was released on March 10th, both CPI and PPI unexpectedly increased by a large margin year-on-year, the expectation of the central bank to raise interest rates was further enhanced, and the market suffered a panic decline. On this day alone, the palm oil P1009 contract fell by more than 1%. At present, although there are some signs of stabilization in the market, the confidence of market investors has not been effectively restored. How will palm oil develop in the later period? Through the analysis of macro and fundamentals, the author finally draws the conclusion that the price of palm oil has stabilized at present and is expected to oscillate and rise in the later period.

  First, China’s economic recovery momentum is improving, but the interest rate hike is expected to increase.

  On March 11th, the National Bureau of Statistics released the main macroeconomic data in February, most of which showed an increase compared with the same period of last year, indicating that the economic recovery momentum in China was still good. For example, from January to February, China’s urban fixed assets investment increased by 26.6% year-on-year, and the total retail sales of consumer goods increased by 17.9% year-on-year. Both investment and consumption showed that the momentum of China’s economic recovery was better than expected. And from January to February, the added value of industrial enterprises above designated size increased by 20.7% year-on-year, and the growth rate was 16.9 percentage points faster than that of the same period of last year, indicating that the industrial recovery momentum is good.

  However, surprisingly, the ex-factory price of industrial products rose by 4.9% from January to February, of which the ex-factory price of industrial products rose by 5.4% in February, 1.1 percentage points higher than that in January. From January to February, consumer prices rose by 2.1% year-on-year, of which consumer prices rose by 2.7% year-on-year, 1.2 percentage points higher than that in January and 1.2% higher than that in the previous month. PPI rose by 4.9% year-on-year, exceeding the market expectation range of 4.4%-4.7%, while CPI rose by 2.7% year-on-year, exceeding the market expectation range of 2.0%-2.5%. In February, the CPI rose sharply year-on-year, partly because of the influence of consumption and climate factors during the Spring Festival, and the increase in some food prices caused by heavy snow before the Spring Festival. However, the year-on-year growth rate of 2.7% still exceeds the highest value of 2.5% generally expected by the market. The year-on-year increase of CPI value exceeded expectations, which challenged the goal of preventing inflation and ensuring growth this year, and also enhanced the expectations of market investors for the central bank to raise interest rates in the second quarter, which suppressed the confidence of market investors to do more.

  Second, the price of internal and external disks is seriously upside down, and there is a demand for compensatory growth in the later stage of palm oil.

  In 2010, the upside-down trend of spot price of palm oil in the internal and external markets has intensified. At present, the spot price of palm oil in Malaysia is 625 yuan/ton higher than the domestic price. Generally, the price difference between the internal and external markets will decrease from April to July, so there is a high room for domestic palm oil prices to rise in the later period.

  Malaysia’s palm oil exports will show a seasonal growth trend after March and April.

  In the second quarter of each year, Malaysia’s palm oil exports basically showed an increasing trend, mainly due to the warmer weather and the emergence of the alternative advantages of palm oil, which will boost the palm oil price during this period.

  Fourth, the dry weather led to a decline in palm oil production and boosted palm oil prices.

  Recently, the dry weather in the main palm oil producing areas in Malaysia has intensified. According to the news released by the Ministry of Hydraulic Irrigation of Malaysia on its website, due to the influence of dry weather, the water levels of two rivers in Johor province, Sungai Muar and Sungai Benut, have dropped to "dangerous" levels, and these two rivers are the main rivers that irrigate plantations in this area. According to the forecast of the Malaysian Meteorological Bureau, the dry weather in parts of Malaysia’s main island and Sabah province is expected to last until May, and there will be no rain at all in the coming week. This may lead to a reduction of plantation output in this area by about 15%. Sabah province is the most important palm oil producing area in Malaysia, and a quarter of the national output comes from this area. In February, the palm oil production in Sabah province decreased by 15.7% compared with that in January, falling below 400,000 tons. It is expected that the palm oil production in Malaysia may decrease by 10% compared with that in February, which may lead to a sharp decrease in palm oil production this year. In 1983, 1987, 1992 and 1998, due to the influence of dry weather, the palm oil yield in Malaysia decreased by 10%, 23%, 1.4% and 17% respectively compared with the previous year. In addition, the Malaysian government is still implementing the oil palm tree replay project this year, which also means that the palm fruit harvest output will decline, thus affecting the Malaysian crude palm oil output. It is estimated that Malaysia’s crude palm oil production will decrease by 2.3% this year to about 17.2 million tons, which will boost palm oil prices.

  Palm oil imports remained at a high level in the fifth and second quarters, which had a negative impact.

  Judging from the situation of palm oil imports in China, except for the global financial crisis in 2008, palm oil imports in other years showed an increasing trend from April to June. Recently, according to the forecast of National Grain and Oil Information Center, the monthly palm oil import in China is expected to stabilize at 500,000-600,000 tons from April to June. At present, the port inventory of palm oil is still very large, and by the end of February, the inventory is about 500,000 tons, which has a certain suppression effect on the price of palm oil.

  6. Technically, palm oil is expected to oscillate upward.

  From a technical point of view, the palm oil futures price is supported around 6800, and it is strongly supported around 6500, but the pressure around 7000 above the futures price is relatively high. If the futures price can successfully break through 7000, it is expected to go up to the first target of 7400 in the later period; If you can’t effectively break through 7000, call back to 6500 at most.

  Based on the above analysis, the author thinks that palm oil, as an agricultural product, will be less affected by policies and more affected by fundamental factors, despite the uncertainty of macro policies and the negative impact of the increase in palm oil imports in the second quarter. Therefore, the author believes that palm oil prices are expected to oscillate and rise in the later period. Investors can now pay attention to buying opportunities in the range of 6800-6900.
