Forty years of rolling stones are filled with stories of your time and mine.

Forty years ago, in 1980, in Building 3, Lane 290, Guangfu South Road, Da ‘an District, Taipei, Chung-Tan Duann, who had just finished military service, and his second brother, Duan Zhongyi, set up a small company called Rolling Stone Audio Publishing House.

This is not their first "rolling stone". Four years ago, two brothers who love music started a magazine introducing western rock music, called Rolling Stone, to pay tribute to the British rock band Rolling Stone.

The magazine lost money. After paying off the debt, the two brothers decided to continue to make music in another form. The goal of Rolling Stone Records at that time was to produce Chinese pop music.

Even though they were interested in the Chinese music scene, the two brothers, who were only in their thirties at that time, probably didn’t expect that this company would be open for forty years.

"Rolling stone can become a symbol of this era, completely exceeding the initial expectations." In an interview in 2010, Duan Zhongyi said this.

"In Rolling Stone, every name is a classic."

Bright yellow background, black and white round target and an arrow. Even if you can’t know the stars of the rolling stone, this logo is sealed in many people’s memories in various forms, either vaguely or clearly.

From the post-70s to the post-90s, and maybe even the post-60s and post-00s, almost no one has the youth to avoid the arrow of Rolling Stone.

Let’s talk about the past. In 1981, in Rolling Stone’s first album "Three-person Exhibition", the three main stars were: Pan Yueyun, Wu Chuchu and Li Lifen.

Among them, Pan Yueyun is the first signing singer of Rolling Stone, and the most well-known title song is "Am I Your Favorite Person"; As for Li Lifen, his masterpiece "bold and the beautiful", even people passing by in the 1990s can hum a few words;

Wu Chuchu, the only male on the cover, is a veteran who joined the Rolling Stones during the magazine period. Two years later, he ran away and founded a UFO record. In the following ten years, he competed with Rolling Stone. There were once all-powerful figures such as Cai Qin, Wang Jie, Jiang Yuheng, Jimmy Lin and Little Tiger, and most of them were idols. It is worth mentioning that Sandy Lam was later cornered by Jonathan Lee.

The first batch of singers signed by Rolling Stone showed strong humanistic characteristics. Zhang Aijia, who made the record Childhood by her boyfriend, and Chyi Yu, who sang San Mao’s poems, of course, it was this boyfriend who was originally behind the scenes, Tayu Lo, who finally influenced the direction of the rolling stone.

In April, 1982, Rolling Stone released Tayu Lo’s first album, "What is it?". Many years later, some people still remember this album lying among the cassettes: the black cover, four big red characters, and Dr. Luo wearing a black shirt and sunglasses, with the words "I am not happy" written all over his face.

Such a lump of black between a sweet and fresh cassette is very eye-catching and discordant, but it is also quickly noticed.

Tayu Lo, then a radiologist, pointed X-rays at the society and people’s hearts, and deeply reflected and criticized the development of Taiwan Province society. "Lugang Town" sings about the sense of loss in the transition from the countryside to the city, and "What is it?" mercilessly attacks the blind pursuit of modernization.

It is suddenly discovered that musical notes can not only be decadent, but also criticize and enlighten, and can also carry a more grand narrative-an unprecedented wave of criticism and reflection in Taiwan Province pop music, which has since emerged.

Tayu Lo is on fire. One album after another, one classic after another, has made him and a rolling stone full of humanistic spirit. "Nothing can be abandoned, and nothing can be forgotten". Today, nearly 40 years later, Dr. Luo’s songs are still played and sung repeatedly by various voices on the street at dusk and in the empty underground passage.

Then Jonathan Lee. He is a singer and the top producer of Rolling Stone. After joining the Rolling Stones in 1985, Jonathan Lee’s first record was Zhang Aijia’s Busy and Blind. In 1989, he created "Tell You and Listen to You" for Chan Sarah, which became the first album in Taiwan Province to break a million sales. The Chinese music scene has truly entered the era of record industry, and the Rolling Stone has since entered its heyday.

What followed was an unforgettable string of names: Chan Sarah, Huang Yunling, doll, bug, Zhao Chuan, Bobby Chen, Chyi Chin, Jeff Chang Shin-Che, Emil Wakin Chau, Sandy Lam, Xin Xiaoqi …

In this period, which may be regarded as the best time of Taiwan Province’s music scene, many names were "touched the stone into gold" by Jonathan Lee, and the infighting between Rolling Stone and UFO was raging. At the same time, Rolling Stone also expanded its market. In addition to setting up its own sub-brands and music studios with different personalities in Taiwan Province, it also set up a music factory led by Tayu Lo in Hong Kong, and established a magic rock culture in the mainland. Apart from the Tang Dynasty, Black Panther band and Ai Jing, it also made it "magic rock".

From the mid-1990s to the new century, although it was not as glorious as before, there were Wu Bai, Zhang Zhenyue, Su Huilun, Chen Qizhen, Rene Liu, Richie Jen, Xu Huaiyu, Karen Mok and Muji …
In mid-1999, before the arrival of the dangerous new music generation, Mayday and Fish Leong signed a contract with Rolling Stone. This music boulder, amid the noise at the end of the century, left everyone with one exciting pop music feast after another.
Looking back again at this time 20 years later, behind every name are countless songs that have touched you and me.

Walkman after 70′ s and 80′ s, CD player and mp3 player after 90′ s, such as the years when the green leather train rumbled by, on the playground runway, in the bustling streets and lanes, at the moment when lovers held hands and shared an earphone, these names and the melody connected with them are the background sounds of youth, and they are memories that need not be deliberately remembered and will be hard to erase.

"Because the Rolling Stone provided memorable songs to people when they were growing up, which became a very important memory in life." Duan Zhongyi once interpreted the "symbol of the times" attribute of rolling stones in this way.

It was the golden age when rolling stones could not be copied, and it was also the golden age when Chinese pop music was difficult to be copied.

"I’m in Rolling Stone, and I’m important."

The humanistic atmosphere and the trend of freedom began at the beginning of the founding of Rolling Stone. In Duan Zhongyi’s memory, at that time, everyone had no experience, no complicated process, and simply relied on intuition and inspiration, judgment and courage to do things.

Freedom has no limit, which has become the characteristic of rolling stones to some extent; The story of many people in the rolling stone also happened like a bridge.

Tayu Lo is naturally one of them. Born in a medical family, Dr. Luo is hesitant about being a singer or a doctor. The environment is not friendly to him: the vigorous folk song movement has been attributed to the plainness of campus songs, the concept of Singer-songwriter has not yet been formed, the authorities are extremely strict in ideological control, and Dr. Luo’s songs are just untimely full of irony and anger.

Every record company rejected Tayu Lo for a legitimate reason, but Rolling Stone made a different choice, even though a reporter in the newspaper predicted that "Even the Man" could only sell 2,000 copies. "No matter how many copies we sell, this is the music we are going to make." Duan’s brothers said this to Tayu Lo.

"What is it?" eventually sold 140,000 copies. The media commented that this record was "an atomic bomb dropped on the Taiwanese Mandarin pop music scene to change the history of pop music".

"Xiao Li" Jonathan Lee got off to a more bumpy start. Young Xiao Li is an out-and-out academic scum. He was sent to the most famous cram school by his mother who was a teacher, and eventually became one of the only two losers. The other student was slightly mentally retarded. When I went to a technical college, I took more than 50 credits after studying for five years, but I was still more than 200 points short. In the end, I had to drop out of school and make a living by sending gas.

But in Rolling Stone, Xiao Li is very bright. Busy and Blind started the so-called "concept album" trend that has been popular in Taiwan Province’s music world so far, and his solo album "The Genie in Life" laid a foundation for his expressive music style in the narration of emotions.

From Tayu Lo’s great narrative and era, full of collectivism, and returning to Xiao Li’s individualism, music critic Ma Shifang said that Jonathan Lee "can always find the light of poetry from the triviality of these lives and write epic verve from the trivial personal self."

This is the rolling stone. It can be grand or delicate, magnificent or tossing and turning. In the small building on Guangfu South Road, anything can happen.

For example, there are many stories from assistants to stars. Huang Yunling entered the Rolling Stone in 1986, and worked as an unpaid assistant for the first two years. It was not until 1988 that he wrote harmony for "Dream Field" sung by Chyi Yu and Pan Yueyun that he earned money for the first time.

She remembers that Rolling Stone was very creative and gambling, and the chairman also played poker with everyone after work. But "I still want to make achievements". If I am too tired, I will put a toilet paper on it and sleep casually in the company.

Emil Wakin Chau was also an assistant. He was "picked up" by Jonathan Lee in the folk song restaurant. Before that, because he took too many classes, he sang that his throat was inflamed, and the doctor put a needle into his upper jaw to draw blood, which made him "dying". Many years later, he recalled the Rolling Stones and remembered the out-of-print records of Chyi Yu and Li Jianfu on the record cabinet that entered the door. Every day after work, he copied them one by one, just like absorbing nutrients.

He is also a member of the company who sleeps casually. But the most special memory is not that Chung-Tan Duann, the boss nicknamed "Sanmao", told him not to go barefoot and bring slippers to the company, but that when he got married, Sanmao asked him: When do you want children? -in other companies, artists must be prevented from getting married.

At one time, he was very dissatisfied with his boss: he wrote songs for him, but he always turned to magazines. It was a long time before Chung-Tan Duann explained to Emil Wakin Chau: Many people listen to the radio while flipping through magazines, so it is not unusual to catch people while meditating, and it is only when others flip through magazines that such music can be successful.

Rene Liu was Bobby Chen’s assistant. She said she was "too nervous to walk" when she first entered the rolling stone. She was greeted by a poster of Su Huilun, and there were two big words: "I am on a rolling stone, and I am very important".

Some people become "important" slowly. When Li Manting first entered Rolling Stone, she felt that there was nothing to do. Later, she found out that this was the way for Chung-Tan Duann to employ people: put you in a sea and let you swim by yourself, and see what sparks you can hit.
So when she found Chung-Tan Duann and said that she wanted to write lyrics, Sanmao looked surprised, but agreed to let her try, so there was "Flower Heart".

At noon one day not long after, Jonathan Lee invited the production department to dinner, clamoring that there would be a recording in the evening, but the lyrics could not be written, and asked her and another colleague to write them. After sitting in the cafe for two hours, Li Manting handed in a draft of Laughing at the World of Red Dust.

In Rolling Stone, talent is a passport. Therefore, the eclectic way of employing people can last for many years.

Xu Huaiyu signed a rolling stone, which was heard by producer Weng Xiaoliang when he was drying clothes on the balcony;

"Mayday" was excavated. Jonathan Lee listened to the demo that Martha and A Xin sent to the front desk and personally called the head monster;

Fish Leong was recorded on a cd as a harmony after winning the Malaysian prize. It was also discovered by Jonathan Lee that she was called for an interview and finally became a generation of love song divas …

Duan Zhongyi once interpreted the slogan of Rolling Stone Record "I am in Rolling Stone, I am very important". In his view, this is a halo and a responsibility. "Let every employee know that Rolling Stone belongs to everyone and is responsible for all works and all people who listen to music."

"Rolling Stone loves you forever."

During the magazine period, the slogan of Rolling Stone was "Rolling Stone loves you forever". Duan Zhongyi said that this means taking readers as lifelong companions and lovers to love.

Love may never change, but the decline of the global record industry is hard to recover. Rolling stones are also in this spell.

Since the end of last century, the appearance of the music industry has changed forever under the embrace of Ipod and download. Rolling Stone, which signed more than 100 singers in its heyday and opened many branches in Malaysia, Indonesia, South Korea and other places, fell into a sharp shrinking trend irreversibly.

At the turn of the century, Rolling Stone Records suffered from both inside and outside: challenging international record companies as independent companies consumed a lot of marketing and advertising costs in the competition; The expansion front in the mainland, Hong Kong and overseas has been stretched too long; In the process of commercialization, the original powerful and humanistic music image has also been invisibly broken …

In 2001, Rolling Stone Hong Kong and Magic Rock Records closed down, and international companies gradually recovered the distribution rights of Rolling Stone’s records in Taiwan Province, and their singers Chen Qizhen, Yang Naiwen, Wu Bai and Zhang Zhenyue left one after another, which made Rolling Stone even worse. In 2005, Wan Fang, Richie Jen, Bug, Huang Pinyuan, Guang Liang were added to the runaway list … The following year, Mayday and Fish Leong joined them.

Falling down, the rolling stone is still looking for a grip and struggling to support it.

In 2008, the Vertical Line Band was established. Tayu Lo, Jonathan Lee, Emil Wakin Chau and Zhang Zhenyue toured for two years, creating two albums to awaken the collective memory with music;

In 2011, the 30th anniversary concert tour of Rolling Stone was launched. From Taipei to Guangzhou, I walked through 12 cities and performed 15 performances. It was hard to get a ticket.
In 2016, The Love Story of Rolling Stone was released. 20 classic songs of Rolling Stone, adapted into 20 episodes of unit TV series …
Although the prospect is not optimistic, the rolling stone is still trying to live. In June last year, Duan Zhongyi said in a speech that more than 3,500 of Rolling Stone’s more than 20,000 copyrighted songs were successful, and Rolling Stone suffered a crisis. "But it is these 3,500 songs that constitute the life of Rolling Stone."

The core of the rolling stone for forty years is music itself, and music is also the foundation for the rolling stone to survive in such a dangerous environment.

In an interview ten years ago, Duan Zhongyi said in retrospect that he would not talk about the rolling stone by its rise and fall. Rolling stone is a process, not an ending.

"The Rolling Stones will continue to fight." He said.

Running water takes away ten years in a hurry. The forty-year-old rolling stone is still fighting today.

Bad movies are often seen again. Expert: It’s meaningless to show them.


The three films, Peach Blossom in the Cold, Big Talk and No Man’s Land, all suffered a bad ending.

 

    Movie network news No Man’s Land, which has been released recently or will be released soon, has one thing in common — — Rotten tail "Big Talk" and "No Man’s Land" were made four years ago, while "Peach Blossoms in the Cold" was finished ten years ago. These once-disappeared films have recently entered the cinema frequently to meet the audience. For the main creator, it is a good thing that the film can be released, at least some of the original investment can be recovered, especially "No Man’s Land" has achieved good box office results, but in the eyes of experts, such films have been "hidden in the snow" for too long, and if they are not art films, they have lost the significance of release.

Ten years, such as "Peach Blossoms in the Great Cold", brought back 1% movies.

    On January 17th, a movie called Peach Blossoms in the Great Cold was released, starring Yang Mi and William Feng. Why is the film so famous because it has such a strong lineup? There is only one reason — — The film was shot in 2004. Yes, this is an out-and-out movie. Although it was successfully filmed, it could not be released in time, just like the actor was "hidden in the snow".

    Movies hidden in the snow, such as "Peach Blossoms in the Great Cold", have frequently "seen the light of day" during this period. Last year’s Tanabata movie was released for at least three years, and Huang Xiaoming’s name in the cast list has even changed from starring to "guest appearance". This year, the movie "Big Talk and Fairy Tales" which will be released on February 2nd, formerly known as "Fairy Tales", was launched in November 2009. After filming, news of the upcoming release came several times, but it was all gone, and the release date was finally determined a few days ago. In fact, Sun Li didn’t finish the film, and body double did the rest. Liu Zhenwei, the director, once said in the Weibo that he only shot a part of "A Talk Fairy", but stopped shooting because of lack of funds, and the rest of the scenes were finished by other directors. Liu Zhenwei also bluntly said that "A Talk Fairy" is not strictly his own work.

    In contrast, "Peach Blossom in the Cold" should be regarded as a fighter in a rotten movie. It was not released until 10 years after the film was finished. Yang Mi and William Feng, the leading actors, have changed from nobody at the beginning to hot stars now. Some netizens laughed and said that after watching this movie, you can know where Yang Mi’s face is whole. The film was released on January 17, and the box office in the first three days was only 640,000. The number of films in the top 20 ticket warehouses in China was only 1%, which was far from the 50 million box office expected by the film.

FAW Toyota has sold 139,800 sharp-release twin engines, with ultra-low fuel consumption and higher practicability.

Since the beginning of this year, Toyota’s products have been updated to the fifth-generation intelligent electric hybrid dual-engine system in order to better cope with the mixed market of involution. At the same time, the new cars launched this year have also been upgraded for intelligent driving, intelligent interconnection and intelligent cockpit.

On August 6th, FAW-Toyota Corolla sharp-release intelligent electric hybrid twin engine also strengthened its strength in these aspects, and its official guide price was 139,800-184,800 yuan. This is the first time that Corolla Ruifang has launched a hybrid version, which will be more competitive than joint venture rivals such as exploring songs and hackers.

The strength of sharp-release dual-engine products has been comprehensively improved.

Corolla sharp-release twin-engine is equipped with the fifth generation intelligent electric hybrid twin-engine system, which consists of a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, an electric motor and an E-CVT continuously variable gearbox. In the first half of this year, this system has been applied to various models of Toyota. It has been fully optimized in terms of motor, battery and electronic control, and has strengthened its electric drive. It has been completely optimized in terms of acceleration performance, ride comfort and fuel economy.

For example, the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers of Ruifang intelligent electric hybrid twin engine is 4.56L, which is greatly improved compared with the fuel version, and this has become its biggest highlight. This data is competitive with joint ventures or independent products of the same level. From the earlier test drive experience of the vehicle equipped with Toyota’s fifth-generation intelligent electric hybrid dual-engine system, it can be clearly felt that the vehicle’s ride comfort is better and the power output is stronger under the conditions of reducing the weight and volume of the battery and increasing the output power of the high-speed motor. This is because there are more opportunities for the motor to intervene in the high-speed environment, which is also the key reason for improving the fuel economy of the vehicle.

In addition, the sharp-release intelligent electric hybrid dual-engine comes standard with T-Pilot intelligent driving assistance system, Toyota Connect intelligent interconnection and Toyota Space intelligent cockpit, which optimizes some original functions and adds more functions, and comes standard with the whole system, realizing intelligent equal rights and comprehensively improving intelligent strength. For example, in terms of active safety function, the sharp-release intelligent electric hybrid dual-engine can identify vehicles and pedestrians in the visual blind area in advance, and can also assist in braking or even avoid when a collision accident is about to occur.

Ruifang, which was born in the name of Corolla, has the characteristics of comfort, practicality, safety and high quality. In the entry-level joint venture compact SUV market, it is a powerful player, and it is common for the monthly sales to break through 10,000. After the dual-engine model is added, the audience of Sharp will be wider, thus further promoting sales. The SUV with the positioning and price close to that of Sharp Power Smart Electric Hybrid Twin Engine, as well as BYD Song PLUS DM-i and Geely Yinhe L7 in independent brands, the latter are all hot spots in the market, and the voice of independent hybrid is very high at present, so the challenges that Sharp Power Smart Electric Hybrid Twin Engine will face are not small.

All star models challenge five major projects

In this listing conference, FAW Toyota also brought test drive experience activities for its various models. The 2023 Asian Dragon, New Corolla, New RAV4 Rongfang, Smart Electric Hybrid Twin-Engine Crown Lu Fang and Sharp Electric Hybrid Twin-Engine have passed the five challenges, namely, Rapids, Voices of the Future, Braves, Roller Coasters and Space Exploration.

Among them, the 2023 Asian Dragon carried out the challenge of "Rapids", and put a water cup on the roof. Under the linear acceleration, only a few water in the water cup overflowed, and the acceleration stability and body support were sufficient, which was due to its low center of gravity and other characteristics.

The new Corolla, the new RAV4 Rongfang and the sharp-release intelligent electric hybrid twin engines participated in the "Voice of the Future" challenge. After waking up the car system once, they can say all the instructions for controlling air conditioning, windows, music, navigation, etc. in one breath, because these models all support the function of 30-second continuous voice dialogue.

In addition, the new Corolla also participated in the "Brave" challenge project, which responded quickly when identifying obstacles and dummies on the road, and was able to assist users in braking and avoid collision accidents to the greatest extent.

It is worth mentioning that the intelligent hybrid electric twin-engine version of Crown Lu Fang, in the "roller coaster" challenge project simulating cross-country cross-axis sections, has shown excellent driving and control strength under the configuration of E-Four electronic four-wheel drive system and TRAIL one-button escape mode.

MPV Gravia has also ushered in its "space exploration" challenge. For such a big car, parking is a big problem, but fortunately, Gravia is equipped with PVM panoramic monitoring system, PKSB parking auxiliary braking system and other configurations, which can be easily put into storage.

Driven by these models with outstanding product strength, FAW Toyota sold 373,195 vehicles in the first half of this year, up 6% year-on-year. Among them, the cumulative sales volume of Ruifang was 54,039 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 140%.

Write it at the end

In the first half of the year, FAW Toyota sold 99,895 smart electric hybrid twin-engine vehicles, up 6.3% year-on-year, accounting for 26.8%. At the same time, the proportion of mid-to-high-class vehicles under TNGA-K platform, represented by Asian Dragon, Graveyard and Crown Lu Fang, increased to 46%. These two sets of data show that FAW Toyota is accelerating electrification, embracing new changes, and steadily promoting high-quality development. The launch of sharp-release twin engines is also an important embodiment of FAW Toyota’s new and upward development. (Text | |DAN)

CITIC Securities: The trend of Tesla FSD entering China has become more and more clear, and its technology has been ahead of China for 2-3 years.

On July 11th, 2023, CITIC Securities published an article saying that the trend of Tesla FSD (autonomous driving) entering China is becoming more and more clear, which is expected to accelerate the intelligentization process of China car companies as a whole, benefiting China car companies that deeply cultivate high-level intelligent driving functions and take it as a differentiated selling point, but low-end models may face greater pressure.

As early as the end of June this year, Tesla CEO Elon Musk revealed on overseas social platforms that Tesla’s next-generation FSD V12 version will cancel the "Beta" (beta version). Since Tesla FSD was officially pushed to users in 2020, the system has always had the name suffix of "Beta" (Beta version). The cancellation of "beta" this time may mean that the next generation of FSD has been able to achieve full automatic driving ability.

CITIC Securities believes that Tesla’s FSD technology is now close to maturity. Although it is still an L2+ product restricted by laws and regulations, after three years of testing, the technical end may have L3 capability initially, and it is expected to achieve a higher level of automatic driving under the premise that the driver takes over the bottom.

At present, the introduction of Tesla FSD into China still faces two thresholds: qualification and data, in which "qualification" refers to the need to obtain the qualification of map surveying and mapping. Because Tesla needs to achieve automatic driving through shadow mode, the system will automatically detect the surrounding environment when the vehicle is driving and learn the driving style of the driver on the relevant road sections. This practice may be judged as a map surveying and mapping behavior and needs to obtain relevant qualifications before it can be carried out.

In addition, the "data" is well understood. The data collected by Tesla’s autonomous driving system on domestic roads cannot be transmitted back to the United States, so Tesla needs to establish a data center in China to ensure the security of information. It is obviously not so easy to solve these two problems. Even if Tesla FSD has a tendency to enter China, it will take some time to implement it.

According to CITIC Securities, Tesla FSD technology has been ahead of China for 2-3 years, and its performance in algorithm, data volume, data closed loop and hardware is excellent. In these respects, domestic car companies still have much room for improvement. If Tesla FSD is introduced into China, Tesla will cut prices sharply again, which will inevitably pose a threat to many domestic car companies.

However, it is worth mentioning that Musk has reiterated many times that he is willing to share Tesla’s autonomous driving technology with other car companies. If domestic new energy automobile brands are also equipped with Tesla’s autonomous driving technology, then the penetration rate of self-driving cars will be expected to increase significantly.

At the the State Council policy briefing held on June 21st this year, Xin Guobin, Vice Minister of Industry and Information Technology, revealed that he would support the commercial application of L3 autopilot function. According to the latest news, the first domestic "unmanned" commercial pilot license will be issued in Beijing in the near future, and the first batch of enterprises are expected to obtain corresponding business licenses.

From this point of view, it is not too far away for the car to be fully self-driving, so will you consider buying a driverless car when you buy a car? If your car is fully self-driving, do you trust your life safety with the car program?

Central Meteorological Observatory: The cold wave will affect the continuous temperature drop greatly today and tomorrow.

  CCTV News:The Central Meteorological Observatory issued daily weather warnings.

This morning, some areas in Inner Mongolia, northern Hebei, northern Shandong and other places experienced a temperature drop of 6 ~ 10 C, and the local drop in central and eastern Inner Mongolia reached 12 ~ 20 C.

  Today and tomorrow, the impact of the cold wave will continue. The temperature in most parts of the central and eastern regions will drop by 6 ~ 10℃ successively, and the temperature in North China, Huanghuai, Jianghuai and other places will drop by 12℃, partially exceeding 16℃. There are 4 ~ 6 winds and gusts of 7 ~ 9 in these areas, and there are dusty weather in northwest, north China and northeast China. There are 6 ~ 8 winds and 9~11 gusts in most offshore areas of China; Today, the influence of cold air will still be mainly concentrated in the northern region.

  Meteorologists reminded that before the arrival of cold air yesterday, the temperature in central and southern North China and Huanghuai was still rising. The highest temperature in Shahe, Hebei Province once reached 32.8 C, just like summer; However, this is only the last madness. Today, the highest temperature in the above-mentioned areas will be halved, especially in Shandong. The public should pay attention to the temperature changes and adjust their clothes in time. In addition, due to the influence of the cold wave, most of the north is windy, so it is necessary to stay away from temporary structures when going out.

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.

Red Army primary school student representatives and national flag guards join hands to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Long March

  China Youth Network, Beijing, September 22(Reporter, Zhang Yanliang, Qian Ming) On September 22, accompanied by the solemn national anthem of the People’s Republic of China, seven "Little Red Army" from the old revolutionary base areas, dressed in Red Army military uniforms, watched the flag-raising ceremony in Tiananmen Square for the first time under the organization of the National Red Army Primary School Construction Engineering Council. On behalf of teachers and students from 230 Red Army primary schools across the country, they received a sacred patriotic education and baptism on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Red Army’s Long March. The seven primary school students are also the main actors of the movie "Red Army Primary School", from Sichuan, Chongqing, Xinjiang and other places.

  After the flag-raising ceremony, seven primary school students came to the Tiananmen National Flag Guard, visited the escort camp and the military history museum of the army, and learned about the glorious development process of the national flag class and the sacred mission and responsibilities it shoulders. Seven primary school students watched the red-themed movie "Red Army Primary School" with the uncle of the armed police of the national flag guard.

  Fang Qiang, vice chairperson of the National Red Army Primary School Construction Engineering Council, said that next month will be the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Red Army’s Long March. We have specially invited seven representatives of the award-winning young actors in the children’s film "Red Army Primary School" to Beijing to participate in the flag-raising ceremony, walk into the national flag guard, and participate in the red-themed patriotic education. The purpose of organizing this event is to convey a red revolutionary spirit, that is, to educate children to play heroes, learn heroes, and be heroes, and to educate students to study hard and cherish the hard-won happy life. Remember the teachings of President Xi, so that the spirit of the Red Army and the red hope can be passed down from generation to generation.

  Wang Jianhua, political commissar of the Tiananmen Detachment of the Armed Police, said in an exchange with the children that the national flag is a symbol of a country and the pride of a nation. The national flag brings people not only glory, but also a patriotic complex. The five-star red flag has been flying in Tiananmen Square for more than 60 spring and autumn, which contains the countless efforts and hardships of the national flag soldiers. The bright five-star red flag embodies the blood of countless revolutionary martyrs. We must learn from each other and jointly safeguard national honor.

  Fang Qiang, vice chairperson of the National Red Army Primary School Construction Engineering Council and chief planner of the red-themed film "Red Army Primary School", is with the students of the Red Army Primary School. China Youth Network correspondent, Xiong Wei, photo

  The red-themed film "Red Army Primary School" tells the story of the selfless dedication of the parents and villagers of the old revolutionary base areas to the Chinese revolution. In the 1930s, the Central Soviet District established the "Red Army Primary School" to train revolutionary successors. A group of poor children, under the training of the Red Army School, learn knowledge and culture. They are witty and brave, not afraid of sacrifice, and cover the Red Army teachers and the descendants of the Red Army to break through. The film "Red Army Primary School" is all set in Bazhong, Sichuan, Nanjiang County, Enyang Ancient Town, and the Museum of the Sichuan and Shaanxi Revolutionary Base Areas.

  It is reported that the National Red Army Primary School Construction Project Council will also hold a "Red Army Primary School" film reception at the Beijing Film Academy, and hold an award ceremony in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Long March, the 10th anniversary of the construction project of the Red Army Primary School, and the outstanding actors and filial piety teenagers of the red classic children’s feature film "Red Army Primary School".

[Grassroots wind collection] Two or three things to warm the heart in summer

Every summer vacation, children travel to play and relax. At the same time, legal education cannot be stopped. "Procuratorial Blue" accompanies them all the way

Two or three things to warm your heart in summer

Accompanied all the way

[Beijing: Fangshan District People’s Procuratorate]

Summer vacation is coming, how is he? Did he listen to everything I said? I don’t know if he can keep up with his studies after returning to his hometown?

I am a prosecutor in the juvenile prosecution department of the Fangshan District Procuratorate in Beijing. The child I am very concerned about, named Xiaoqiang (pseudonym), is the alleged offender of a robbery I once handled.

Xiaoqiang is the youngest child in the family, and his parents come to Beijing to work and grow vegetables for a living. Xiaoqiang went to an Internet cafe to surf the Internet during the holidays. After coming out of the Internet cafe, he felt that he had not had enough fun but he had no money. When he saw a woman passing by, he suddenly wanted to grab some money, so he hit her on the head with a branch from behind. After the victim was beaten, he began to cry for help. Xiaoqiang was afraid and turned his head to run away, but was eventually captured by the public security police.

Xiaoqiang is a minor. During the investigation stage, he hired a legal aid lawyer. With the help of the lawyer, Xiaoqiang’s mother compensated for the victim’s losses and obtained the victim’s understanding. Our hospital finally decided to make a relative decision not to prosecute Xiaoqiang based on the case. At the admonition meeting to announce the decision not to prosecute, the police, lawyers, social workers, and Xiaoqiang’s family all came to the scene. I announced the decision not to prosecute, and criticized and educated Xiaoqiang in the form of a letter from the prosecutor. Xiaoqiang said that in the future, he must study hard, live up to everyone’s help and expectations, and never do anything illegal again. After the decision not to prosecute was announced, the social worker followed Xiaoqiang for 6 months.

With a phone call from Henan, my hanging heart was relieved. On the phone, Xiaoqiang told me that he had returned to the classroom at his hometown school, living a fulfilling and happy school life like every child his age. During the summer vacation, he had to make up for his homework and make up for lost time.

Focusing on the management of Internet cafes, our hospital and the Fangshan District Cultural and Cultural Commission continued to strengthen cooperation. The District Cultural and Cultural Commission made an administrative penalty decision on the Internet cafes involved in the case in accordance with the "Regulations on the Management of Internet Access Service Business Places".

We hope that through our continuous efforts, we can create a safer growing environment for children. On the road to growth, "Inspector Blue" will accompany you all the way.

The power of inheritance

[Beijing: Mentougou District People’s Procuratorate]

I have been a prosecutor for 33 years, and now I am a prosecutor who has not been a prosecutor, and I am also a vice principal of the rule of law. Every summer vacation, I go to various communities in this district to give lectures on the rule of law, and I have persisted for more than ten years. In order to fill the gap in children’s holiday legal education and effectively penetrate into the field of legal education for minors in the community, our hospital has also built a "legal service station for minors" in Shimenying District 5 of Mentougou District. Activities such as legal publicity, legal consultation, and parenting education have been carried out vividly. Today, this service station has become a "demonstration station of Lei Feng Volunteer Service Station for Capital Learning".

On the first day of the children’s summer vacation, I came to Zengdong Community in Dayu Street early. This summer activity was not my own action, but the launching ceremony of the "Vice Principal of Law Summer Community Classroom" was moved here in conjunction with the Youth League District Committee.

In order to do a good job in the inheritance of legal popularization work, the vice presidents of the rule of law in our hospital have been selected through layers of selection to stand out. In order to further improve the professional level of the vice presidents of the rule of law and the ability to publicize the law, we conduct level-by-level assessments through speeches, professional comments, etc. There are not only senior prosecutors handling cases on the front line, but also a group of young prosecutor assistants who graduated from Tsinghua University, Peking University, and China University of Political Science and Law with solid theoretical skills and youthful vitality.

After the launching ceremony, I led the newly elected Vice Principal of Rule of Law to give lectures on the rule of law in Zengdong Community and Huimin Home Community entitled "Happy Summer Vacation, Safe No Holiday". Guided and interactive teaching, with one movement, one quietness, one question and one answer, not only increased the fun of children’s summer Fa study, but also enriched their summer life.

After the lecture, we also distributed legal pocket books such as "Prosecutors Around" and "Learning to Protect Yourself" edited by our school to students and parents, as well as a letter to parents. Next, I will also lead the newly elected vice principals of the rule of law to various communities to carry out legal education, hoping that the children will have a happy, safe and meaningful summer vacation. As an old prosecutor, I saw the demeanor of the young vice principals of the rule of law; as the first batch of vice principals of the rule of law in our district, I saw the power of inheritance; as a mother, I saw the seriousness and smiles of the children when they studied the law. I think I am also happy this summer!

Little Guard

[Beijing: Tongzhou District People’s Procuratorate]

At half past nine in the evening, it was already dark, and there were bursts of children’s laughter playing downstairs and the familiar chirping of cicadas on a hot summer night. It was another summer vacation, and it was also the happiest time for children. But I couldn’t help but sigh deeply. I recalled a case I had just handled a few days ago. An innocent child had been violated during a happy summer vacation.

The children are on summer vacation, but the parents still have to work hard, which has led to some children being sent to grandparents’ houses, to childcare centers, or to "small dining tables" that can be hosted and eaten.

Little do we know that criminals may be all around us, and if we are not vigilant, we may extend our sinful "black hands" to the babies. It is essential to improve children’s self-protection awareness and ability.

One of the important functions of illegal work is crime prevention, and it is also our important duty to protect the safety of children, so we are also called "prosecutor mothers". At the beginning of this summer, I went into a community and gave a legal lecture on "self-protection" to the children in this large community who were on summer vacation, so that they could have a happy and smooth summer vacation.

The children who participated in the activity were all children in junior high school and primary school in the community, all of whom were lively and cheerful. I put forward the slogan "Strive to be a summer self-defense guard" to them, and introduced their important rights such as the right to life and health, and what kind of behavior is an illegal infringement of their rights.

In order to let the children have a personal experience, I designed 4 interactive small sessions to let the children understand the routines of "bad guys" in reality through situation performances. Several scenarios such as impersonating real-world friends, waiting for opportunities to steal and grab, and taking advantage of kindness were also set up. What makes me relieved is that the children who participated in the interaction had a strong sense of self-protection, and they were able to resolutely resist all kinds of deception proposed by "bad guys", and they could also consciously protect themselves. The children’s outstanding performance was applauded and appreciated by the parents at the event.

I told the children about real small cases that happened around them, telling them that danger may be around. By teaching the children the "tricks of self-protection", I taught the children how to learn to protect themselves and stay away from danger during the summer vacation.

"Takeaway Brother" New Beginning

[Beijing: Fengtai District People’s Procuratorate]

Summer vacation can be said to be the most anticipated vacation for students in school. There are many activities such as travel, summer camps, and tutoring classes. But for school dropouts, summer vacation seems to have lost its meaning, but this summer vacation is of great significance to Xiao Lang (a pseudonym). During the summer return visit, Xiao Lang said to me: "When I got the decision not to prosecute and walked out of the door of the procuratorate, I felt very relaxed."

Worried and taciturn were my first impressions of Xiao Lang. It was in October 2017 that I first met Xiao Lang, a 17-year-old boy who was transferred to our hospital for investigation and prosecution on suspicion of buying and selling identity documents. His mother accompanied him. Throughout the process, Xiao Lang looked solemn, often playing with his fingers with his head down, and kept repeating the sentence "I just want to deliver a few more takeaways on my motorcycle." Xiao Lang’s mother was also very perturbed and kept asking what the final outcome of this case would be. Under our constant comfort and guidance, Xiao Lang’s situation gradually became clear.

Xiao Lang dropped out of school to work in Beijing due to his poor family and found a job as a food delivery worker. After a few days of delivering food by riding an electric car, he found that the motorcycle had good maneuverability, high speed, low fuel consumption, and low food delivery costs, which could save a lot of money compared to riding an electric car. However, Xiao Lang was under the age of 18 at the time, and according to regulations, minors could not obtain a motor vehicle driver’s license, so they could not drive a motorcycle to deliver food. But in order to reduce the pressure of his mother’s cleaning work to subsidize the family, Xiao Lang still chose to take the risk. He bought second-hand motorcycles and fake driving licenses, driver’s licenses, license plates and other documents through second-hand online shopping, and began to ride motorcycles to deliver food. Last July, Xiao Lang was caught riding the motorcycle to deliver food and was subject to administrative punishment. In September, he was seized by the public security police for riding the motorcycle to deliver food. The public security organ transferred Xiao Lang to our hospital for review and prosecution on suspicion of buying and selling identity documents.

After understanding the case, I patiently explained the case to Xiao Lang. He quickly realized his mistake. In view of his good attitude of confession and repentance, the purchase and use of a false driver’s license was necessary for food delivery, and the social harm was relatively small. At the end of last year, our hospital made a conditional non-prosecution decision against Xiao Lang according to law, with a 6-month inspection period.

I have kept in touch with Xiao Lang and his parents, kept up with Xiao Lang’s current situation, and regularly helped Xiao Lang with the social worker. One day in March this year, during the conditional non-prosecution period, Xiao Lang called to tell me that he had successfully obtained a motorcycle driver’s license. Hearing the excited voice on the other end of the phone, I was also sincerely happy for him.

As an unprosecuted prosecutor, I am responsible for the work of the "arrest, prosecution, supervision and prevention" system. In addition to handling the case itself, I should also jump out of the case and think about what else I can do. It is through the guidance and help of delinquent juveniles in case handling practice that I have a deeper understanding of the "education, probation, rescue" policy, "education first, and punishment second" principle.

Send the teenager home

[Beijing: Shijingshan District People’s Procuratorate]

Another year of summer vacation arrived. Looking through the desk calendar, I suddenly found that the boy who stole the electric car, Xiaoyu (a pseudonym), was about to receive his 8-month sentence. July 15 was the day he was released from prison.

From taking over Xiaoyu’s case to the final prosecution, I have poured a lot of effort into him, and he has great trust in me. However, he has no relatives in Beijing. What should I do after he is released? If I want to go home, I will definitely have no money, and if I stay in Beijing, I will not have the skills to make a living. Thinking of this, I decided to visit him and send him home.

Time to go back to the beginning of the case. This was a serial theft of electric vehicles and motorcycles. The gang of criminals was a group of young people, all from a poor mountainous area. They were instigated by fellow villagers "Brother Wang" and were tricked into coming to Beijing to "find a way to survive". "Brother Wang" taught the children how to unlock and steal electric bicycles. After selling the stolen goods, he collected all the stolen money by himself, and only gave the children barely enough money to fill their stomachs. After several lucky successes, Xiaoyu and others were arrested in Shijingshan District. By this time, he had accumulated 10,000 yuan worth of property.

During the review process, I found that the ID number and name reported by Xiaoyu did not match. It turned out that Xiaoyu had been a "black household" since birth and did not have her own ID card. In order to find out Xiaoyu’s exact identity, and to gain a deeper understanding of Xiaoyu’s living environment and growth experience, I came to Xiaoyu’s hometown with the public security officers.

The local police station environment is very simple. There is only one table in the whole office. My clerk had to lie on the motorcycle to take notes to verify Xiaoyu’s identity. Looking at these scenes, I feel sorry for these children who were used outside and committed crimes from the bottom of my heart.

After returning to Beijing, our court prosecuted Xiaoyu according to law, and he was eventually sentenced to eight months in prison by the court.

On July 15, the day of Xiaoyu’s release, the Juvenile Division of the Joint Court of our hospital and the public security department launched the "Send Xiaoyu Home" joint rescue activity. Before parting, I once again instructed Xiaoyu: "After returning home, you must learn a skill well and create a happy life with your own hands." Xiaoyu bowed deeply to me and the judge and embarked on a new journey of life.

As a prosecutor in a non-prosecution department, reviewing the facts of the case and grasping the evidence in the whole case is only the beginning of the work. Minors are fragile and vulnerable, ignorant and easily deceived, extreme and soft and easily influenced. Because of this, we also need to understand the growth experience and personality characteristics of minors, help them get out of mistakes, rebuild confidence, and become useful talents in society.

(Cheng Yu Qing)

Receive an offer of admission

[Beijing: Haidian District People’s Procuratorate]

Just before summer came this year, I received this text message: "Sister, I have been admitted to a 211 university!"

Although the text message is simple, I can feel the joy revealed on the other end of the mobile phone through the screen. In fact, who would have thought that the teenager with excellent results who sent the text message is not my relative or friend, but an alleged offender who was once conditionally not prosecuted by our hospital. His suspected crime is drug-related crimes.

Four years ago, when this drug trafficking case was on my desk, I flipped through the case file: the facts of the case are clear and the evidence is solid. But when it comes to minors, conditional non-prosecution in different places, criminal record sealing, etc., things are complicated. I have been following this case for four years.

I still remember the first time I met him and his mother and brother. I was still a little worried that it would not be easy to communicate with them, but seeing their sincerity, I was moved. The teenager made mistakes, and his mother did not give up. She always encouraged him, exhorted him to cherish the opportunity, actively rehabilitated, and contacted the school to welcome him back to study.

Considering the situation of cracking down on drug crimes, our hospital is still very cautious about whether the juvenile can be conditionally not prosecuted. To this end, our hospital held a hearing and invited the undertaker of the public security organ, the family of the juvenile, the protector of minors, and the deputies of the National People’s Congress to discuss together. Everyone believes that the punishment of minors should be based on the growth and rescue of minors involved in the crime.

The local prosecutor in the teenager’s hometown who assisted us in our investigation and education, she routinely talked to the teenager every month and paid home visits. I still remember that in the conversation records she wrote, the teenager once called me and the local prosecutor sister. I believe it was because we really considered him, respected him, cared for him, and helped him that the child developed a sibling-like trust in the prosecutor.

With the joint efforts of all parties, the 17-year-old returned to the third year of junior high school. The 6-month inspection period was quickly passed, and the case was finally not prosecuted according to law. We have been in touch since then, and we have heard good news from him from time to time. He passed the art specialty exam and was admitted to a key high school.

From a teenager who went astray to a college student today, I believe he will have a better life in the future. I am happy to be able to participate in this process and witness his growth.

Ethan Ruan: Grows Naturally

COVER STORY | Cover Story

The most intense and uncomfortable scene in Ruan Jingtian’s heart in "Removing the Three Evils in the Week" was actually when Xiaomei went to prison to shave Chen Guilin. It was one of the few warm moments in Chen Guilin’s life, and it was also the moment when he cried most sincerely. In his heart, just like in Ruan Jingtian’s heart, pain and sadness are not worth crying. What can really penetrate the barrier of the soul and shake the foundation of reason is the beauty in life. The beauty he has experienced has impacted Ruan Jingtian, reshaped him, and healed him. From "The First Brother of the Idol Drama" to being nominated for the Best Actor again, he has been struggling silently for more than ten years. He has never been in a hurry for quick success, nor has he given up halfway. He has just patiently cultivated his mind with daily life and characters, observing its natural growth until he is seen by everyone again.

At the 60th Golden Horse Awards, before the Best Actor award, the host Huang Lu Ziyin walked to Ruan Jingtian and opened a "wanted notice" saying that if he wanted to be famous in history today, he would have to "spend double the effort." The wanted notice showed five candidates for best actor, and Ruan Jingtian was at the bottom. He had to kill everyone in front of him like in "Three Evils in a Week."

"But you also have to have the confidence," she continued, "because you are the only one among the five candidates who has been on that stage and won that award!" Ruan Jingtian bowed his head and smiled humbly. At the age of 28, he won the Best Actor by beating three mainland seniors with "Monga". Thirteen years later, he became the oldest of all the candidates.

Thirteen years have changed him a lot. He told Esquire that coming back to the Golden Horse Awards was not about competition and excitement, but a sigh of relief. He felt like he was at a family reunion, talking to everyone about what was going on, and seeing so many good people still working hard, and feeling that he was part of it, it made him feel at ease.

In the spring of 2024, "Three Evils in a Week" became the biggest surprise in mainland theaters. The killer Chen Guilin turned himself in to the police station, only to find himself third on the wanted list, and no one recognized him, so he thought of removing the top two on the wanted list and finally making a name for himself. More famous than the violent plot, it is the climax of the plot, accompanied by a melodious ballad "New Creation", where Chen Guilin slaughtered stubborn cultists. The elegant tunes and simple costumes are in sharp contrast to the mind control and bloody scenes. The corresponding film quickly swept through the short video platform, and the audience called it enjoyable. Anyone who has never seen the movie can probably hum a few words "I used to be at a loss" or "It’s almost time."

Ruan Jingtian, who played Chen Guilin, surprised the audience. This bald, unshaven, tough guy in an oversized shoulder-padded suit turned out to be the overbearing president of the enlightenment "Ji Cunxi" in the hearts of girls more than ten years ago. From Ji Cunxi to Chen Guilin, it was Ruan Jingtian’s 16 years of hard work and the accumulation of countless characters in the middle. Those unique and rich life experiences naturally grew on his body and became his meridians and his armor.

Chen Guilin is not an evil or brutal killer. Most of the time, his eyes are confused and naive. He has been cheated many times in the play, cried and repented at the end of his life, and finally discovered the beauty of life that he did not have time to experience during the ups and downs of his emotions. For Ruan Jingtian, "Removing the Three Evils in the Circle" was almost a fateful encounter with him. From the very beginning of reading the script, he found many parts that belonged to his own memories. Although it was not as extreme as in the play, it also touched him deeply.

In the previous ten years, Ruan Jingtian had not had a good time.

In the era of the idol drama fire, he starred in "I’m in Kenting * The weather is fine", "I’m destined to love you", and "The Queen of Lost Dogs", all of which achieved phenomenal success.

The newly established image of a handsome cream boy soon jumped to another stage after "Monga" in 2010. In this gangster film, he played the "monk" He Tianyou, who became the best actor at the 47th Golden Horse Awards. People began to call him "Idol Drama Brother" and regarded him as a new "Best Actor" standard.

Suddenly, he went from a junior, a director who would teach him how to act and carry him forward, to a widely respected senior. Few people dared to guide him, and criticism turned to praise and praise. He had to give his best to each film, and his identity demanded that of him.

But the road ahead was not smooth. The response to "Blood Drop", "Detective Runaway" and "Murder Like Water" was not as good as expected. The famous director and the big cast did not bring the planned "success". Some of the events that happened during this time left Ruan Jingtian in a painful state of mind. He was confused, self-doubting, and lived a lonely life: celebrating birthdays alone, hiding at parties, and often losing phone contact.

"Success" is a strange word for Ethan. He said of himself that every role he has taken on over the years, whether successful or not in the eyes of the audience, is equally important to him to do his best. He said:

Doing it well is not in line with the director’s expectations, not in line with the audience’s expectations, but in line with my expectations for this role and my expectations for myself. "

His expectations for himself are not specific or deliberate, and do not involve any performance skills or delicate designs. His expectations, or his method, is to become a character. Thinking as a character, acting as a character, even without any special design, can make the audience receive strong and complex emotions through the screen. For Ruan Jingtian, he enters work with a pure state of mind, and the first and most crucial step in his process of becoming a character is "believe".

For Ruan Jingtian and Chen Guilin, this seems to be similar – "believe" comes before "understand". Chen Guilin in the play believes many times: believe in Guiqing, believe in Guan Shengdi, believe in Xiaomei, believe in Lin Luhe ("Venerable One"), believe in law and order. Chen Guilin is the pig who represents "ignorance" and is always deceived. But he can always reflect and grow little by little until he really finds something meaningful to him.

And Ethan’s "belief" came earlier than in the play. He started by believing in shoulder-padded suits, and in the temperature, wind, and light of the set. From these environments, Ethan began to look for signs of Chen Guilin’s true existence. The director Huang Jingfu communicated with him in a very special way. He gave Chen Guilin’s costume to Ethan two months before filming, so that he could experience what it was like to be Chen Guilin every day. And from the very beginning of reading the script, he often asked Ethan some open-minded and far-reaching questions: "What kind of person are you? Where are you from? What do you want to do in the future?" He answered not only as Chen Guilin, but also as Ruan Jingtian.

In these questions and answers, Ruan Jingtian felt that the character was like a plant, growing naturally on him.

Chen Guilin’s unbearable emotions also gradually appeared on him. Huang Jingfu reminded him at the beginning, hoping that he would throw away the current tranquility and peace and return to the ups and downs of the most difficult years. Ruan Jingtian’s confusion and pain gradually overlapped with Chen Guilin’s.

Ruan’s history for Chen Guilin is that of a third-generation provincial who grew up in a village where he was close to his grandmother. This is quite close to his own experience. He took on "Paradise in the Army" because his grandparents, like that story, were Taiwan’s first generation of provincial people. Chen Guilin is a romantic person, but he also has many regrets: he made a lot of money, but found that it was not what his grandmother needed, and finally he could only wear the piggy watch bought by his grandmother to express his thoughts. He yearned for brotherhood, but the only thing left in the end was a suit. He yearned to purify his mind, but eventually found that it was just a scam by his enemies.

For Mr. Ruan, Mr. Chen’s life was a gray composite of the people he met. In daily life, in the park and in the hospital, he would often stop to see what the people next to him were doing. The behavior of the elderly in the hospital often hit him deeply. Their eyes gradually changed over the course of several months, and the desire for life became more and more intense, wanting to grasp the last tail of life. In those eyes, he realized an ultimate simplicity.

This innocence is also present in Chen Guilin. His brilliant fight with "Aberdeen" spreads from stairs to rivers, wilderness and greenhouses, and although the pistol is at his waist, Chen Guilin insists on hand-to-hand combat. At the end of the paragraph, "Aberdeen" is defeated and faces trial. The last question asked Chen Guilin is "give me a reason". Chen Guilin taps his severed eyebrow. The shot is romantic, wild and heart-wrenching.

The opposite of this simplicity is the constant emergence of regret. In a comprehensive, gray life, people, time, and geography are constantly changing, and changes are often beyond human control and do not listen to human opinions. After sudden and huge changes, people spend a lot of time digesting them, getting along with them, and finally accepting them either satisfactorily or reluctantly. In the face of regret, people’s actions are always intriguing. Ruan Jingtian asked:

You and I have done some things that will make me regret, but now, in Chen Guilin’s present, even if he knows that he will regret it in a few years, will he regret it now? "

The answer is complicated. Chen Guilin has an urge to fight against fate, and because of this, he devoured the bento and shot "Brother Iron Head" lightly, fled incognito for four years, and began the story of "Removing the Three Harmies in the Circle". Towards the end of the story, Xiaomei shaves Chen Guilin with a blunt electric razor, and he bursts into tears. It was the first time in years that he felt the warmth of the world. At that time, did he feel regret for the course of life and the tricks of fate?

For Ethan, the biggest difference between Chen Guilin and him is that Chen Guilin is a "person without a future." At the end of the film, when Zhang Guiqing visits him and reveals the truth of the story, Ethan feels real sadness. He suddenly realizes that there are so many beautiful things in the world, and he has no chance to experience them again. Compared with loyalty, attachment, regret, and innocence, the regret of losing one’s life is overwhelming, which makes him finally apologize sincerely.

Although the story of "The Three Evils of the Week" is over, Chen Guilin survives as a part of Ruan Jingtian. After filming the movie, Ruan often has a wonderful and fateful feeling. He will send a message to Huang Jingfu, explaining why there are so many coincidences in his life and how it is similar to the script. Those changes are just like what Chen Guilin experienced, which cannot be stopped, and can only be quietly felt and silently participated. During this process, Chen Guilin is like an old friend, continuing to accompany Ruan Jingtian and stand with him.

For Ethan, his amazing growth and transformation has been shaped by the characters who have accompanied him along the way. He loves his work as an actor, and he says he often feels "lucky to have enough time to observe what happens in a character’s life." For better or worse, these very different experiences have become a natural resource for Ethan to nourish himself and grow naturally.

After the movie was completed, Ruan Jingtian was immersed in Chen Guilin’s pain for a long time.

He always tries his best to immerse himself in his characters, so the road to acting is often long.

What really helped him were some friends outside the entertainment industry.

Ruan Jingtian was in a motorcycle group, whose members came from all over the world, from all over the world, and from three religions and nine streams. After the success of "Removal of Three Evils in a Week", friends would occasionally imitate Chen Guilin’s appearance and say to him, "Emperor Guan Sheng gave me nine holy grails" or "It’s about time." Ruan Jingtian would not respond to these words in particular, but in simple exchanges, he could gradually distinguish Ruan Jingtian in the motorcycle group from Chen Guilin on the movie screen. The texture of daily life, those old blandness and longevity, came back to Ruan Jingtian bit by bit in the sound of riders waking him up and the family routine with him. He likes the feeling of being an ordinary person.

Compared with the time spent with the riders and the wonderful sense of fate in the crew, what made Ruan Jingtian happier was the most cherished of all the things that "Removing the Three Evils in the Circle" brought him, which was his mother’s smile.

After seeing the movie, Ethan’s mother said to him: "You are so good, there is no shadow of you in the movie, it is all characters." Then she ran to recommend to her friends: "Go and watch it, I tell you, my son is super good." This gave Ethan a happy redemption. After 20 years as an actor, he has been completely mentally prepared. No matter what criticism he hears or what accidents he encounters, it is a part of doing this job. But the evaluation of him seems to inevitably spread to his family. His mother has not benefited from his status as an actor, but can only bear the blame with him, which makes him unable to get rid of guilt. The joy and pride of his mother is the best harvest that "Removing the Three Evils in the Week" has brought to Ethan.

The most intense and uncomfortable scene in Ruan Jingtian’s heart in "Removing the Three Evils in the Week" was actually when Xiaomei went to prison to shave Chen Guilin. It was one of the few warm moments in Chen Guilin’s life, and it was also the moment when he cried most sincerely. In his heart, just like in Ruan Jingtian’s heart, pain and sadness are not worth crying. What can really penetrate the barrier of the soul and shake the foundation of reason is the beauty in life. The beauty he had experienced impacted Ruan Jingtian, reshaped him, and healed him. From "the first brother of the idol drama" to being nominated for the best actor again, he struggled silently for more than ten years. He never rushed for quick success or gave up halfway.
