Wu Bai sang two songs for a movie before he became famous, which accidentally became a classic

In the history of Chinese-language gangster movies, which one is most like the gangster classic "Once Upon a Time in America"? Is it John To’s "Gunfire" or "The Underworld"? Or John Woo’s "The True Color of Heroes"?

If you want to talk about the character setting and growth experience, the master director Hou Hsiao-hsien, directed by Xu Xiaoming, the Taiwanese film "Youth, Peace!" The charm and context can be called the Chinese version of "American Past"!

The latest good news is that this movie, which is "legendary" to many fans, is finally going to be digitally restored and re-released. This should be a big event worth telling among Chinese fans!

This film, released in 1992, was produced by Hou Hsiao-hsien and produced by Zhang Huakun, so almost all the actors in the film were related to Hou Hsiao-hsien.

Starring as Big Brother Gao Jie, Hou Hsiao Xian’s royal actor, he was born with a magical power to play the underworld big brother. Gao Jie was only 34 years old at the time.

The actress Wei Xiaohui made her mark in the Taiwanese film industry from this film, and then starred in Hou Hsiao-hsien’s "Good Men and Good Women" and "South Country, Goodbye South Country", but after her role in "Flowers on the Sea", she stopped being an actress.

One of the male protagonists, Yan Zhengguo, Hou Xiaoxian’s royal child star, turned 18 after the film was filmed, but disappeared from the film industry.

It turned out that Yan Zhengguo later fell into drug abuse and committed a felony and was sentenced to 15 years in prison. After his release from prison, he reformed, re-entered the film industry as an actor, and became a director with a box office of over 100 million in 2018 with "Corner 2: The King Rises Again".

And Big Brother Gao Jie happens to be an important figure in the universe of "Corner Head".

"Young Man, Calm Down!" was the last film of actor Tan Zhigang’s life, and he was only 17 when he made it.

Speaking of Tan Zhigang, it really makes people feel sorry.

At the age of 13, when "Guling Street Youth Murder" recruited young actors, Tan Zhigang, who had experience in children’s programming on TV, went to audition for the role of Kitten King. Yang Dechang preferred him to play Kitten King. But the preparation period for the movie was too long, so Tan Zhigang went to shoot other movies first.

"Middle School Girls"

The winter vacation is long enough.

At the age of 15, his family was going to take Tan Zhigang to immigrate to the United States, but he still thought about "Guling Street", so he stayed in Taiwan to shoot "Guling Street" and run a karaoke bar. When he came to Yang Dechang again, because it had been more than two years and he had grown a lot taller, Yang Dechang had to replace Wang Qizan to play Kitten King, and Tan Zhigang played another very important role – Pony.

Tan Zhigang performed with Zhang Zhen that year.

In 1991, Hou Hsiao-hsien’s production of "Youth, Peace!" was looking for actors. Hou Hsiao-hsien and director Xu Xiaoming met Tan Zhigang with a mixed-race face at the test film of "Guling Street", and customized the role of "Youth, Peace!" for Tan Zhigang "Adou Zai".

Tan Zhigang and Aunt Chen Shufang played opposite each other in "Youth, Peace!" at that time, Aunt Shufang was only in her early 50s.

Chen Shufang became a box office actress in Taiwan last year at the age of more than 80 with "Lonely Flavor" and "Dear Tenant". "Lonely Flavor" is the box office champion in Taiwan.

In 1992, "Youth, Peace!" was released, and Tan Zhigang was about to leave for the United States. However, "Youth, Peace!" was planning a sequel, and Tan Zhigang stayed in Taiwan to wait for the filming to start. On September 4, 1993, Tan Zhigang and his friends went camping in the mountains and encountered a car with a flat tire. Tan Zhigang and his friend Liu Zhimin drove a car down the mountain to ask for help, but when they turned the corner, the car fell into a 100-meter deep valley. Tan Zhigang died on the spot. When he died, he was just 18 years old and a month old.

If there are so many "ifs" in the world, what would happen if Tan Zhigang didn’t die and went to the United States to study movies?

Unfortunately, there are not so many ifs in the world. The restoration of "Young Man, Peace!" is the best memorial to Tan Zhigang.

In addition to the movie classic, the original sound of the music is also a milestone. It is the first film in Taiwan to use rock music as the soundtrack of the whole film.

That year, 24-year-old Wu Junlin (Wu Bai) sang the theme song of the same name and "Lighting Cigarettes" in "Youth, Peace!"

This is Wu Bai’s first time in the original sound of the film, even before his first solo album "Falling in love with others is a happy thing".

Wu Bai was also invited to participate in the ceremony of the restoration and launch of "Youth, Peace!".

"Youth, Peace!" is also the first film that the famous Taiwanese film composer Lin Qiang collaborated with Hou Hsiao-hsien, even a year earlier than his first appearance in Hou Hsiao-hsien’s film "Dream Life".

Lin Qiang sang three songs in the original soundtrack, including "The Silent Place" with Hou Xiaoxian. This song composed by Wu Bai later became a famous song when Wu Bai took it and sang it.

Lin Qiang’s first album "Going Forward" in 1990 is a landmark work in the history of Hokkien rock.

Lin Qiang met Hou Xiaoxian, who came to visit the class, when he was shooting the MV of the "Go Forward" album. The two hit it off and began their cooperation for many years.

It is well known that director Hou Hsiao-hsien can sing two voices, so in "Young Man, Peace!" he also sang a song "Dream Man" by himself.

There is also a band called Baboo in the original sound, which is composed of Lin Weizhe, Li Xinyun, Li Shouxin and Jin Muyi.

Lin later became a famous rock producer and music company owner (manager). These days, Wu Qingfeng’s choking incident is caused by Lin Weizhe and Wu Qingfeng’s copyright lawsuit (Qingfeng finally won, and he can finally breathe a sigh of relief). Li Xinyun later became a pop music and film and television soundtrack, and was the winner of the Golden Melody Award and the Golden Horse Award. Li Shouxin is now the top drummer of Chinese pop music, especially jazz drums. Bass player Jin Muyi is from Japan, and later became active in the Chinese pop music circle. He and Fan Xiaoxuan Zhou Junwei formed the Fu Lushou group.

"Youth, Peace!" is the first feature-length work directed by Xu Xiaoming, who also made "Last Winter" in 1995, starring Wei Xiaohui and Xi Xiang. This Xu Xiaoming is not the Hong Kong director Xu Xiaoming.

In 1997, Director Xu Xiaoming’s "Looking Home" won several international awards.

Xu Xiaoming has since supervised the production of a number of well-known Chinese-language films, such as "Seventeen-Year-Old Bike," "Love You and Love Me," "Blue Door," and "Love in May," starring Liu Yifei and Chen Bolin in 2004, is his most recent feature film.

After "Love in May", Xu Xiaoming worked in films in mainland China, and was the producer of several Chinese business cards, such as "Second Brother", "Court on Horseback", "Rizhao Chongqing", "My Tang Dynasty Brothers", "Summer Unspeakable" and so on. In the 2020 hit documentary "Stick! Youth", Xu Xiaoming served as the editing director of the film together with Liao Qingsong and Zhou Qiang.

"Young Man, Peace!" was produced by Mr. Zhang Huakun, known as "Brother Kun," who was also the producer of Hou Hsiao-hsien’s early and mid-term films, including the most important and best-known "Sad City," "Childhood Past," "People from the Air Cabinet," "Love the Wind and Dust." Zhang Huakun died in December 2020 at the age of 67.

Zhang Huakun discovered and led Gao Jie to debut from "Daughter of the Nile".

Looking forward to the early restoration of this movie!

When the end is already decided, what is the point of our actions?

Chloe Benjamin’s novel "The Immortal" tells a story that begins with a suspenseful setting: four young children who accidentally receive a witch’s prophecy and learn the exact date of their future death, thereby altering each of their life choices. It is a common topic of discussion – is there still room for our free will when the outcome is already decided?
Nowadays, in order to increase the freedom of play, many games will set up many dialogue and behavior options, and every choice of the player may affect the direction and ending of the following plot. In order to experience different plots, many players will play with other behavior choices after clearing the level, and finally after the first week, the second week, or even the third week, experience all the life possibilities of the game protagonist, or play a perfect ending. In some games with relatively delicate plot settings, this game mode allows you to fully experience what is called the "butterfly effect" in life. For example, in "Life is Strange", even a detail the size of a ball of waste paper will have a huge impact in the later stage of the game. On the other hand, the limitations of the game itself also make us understand that no matter how rich and free choices we make, the final outcome cannot be separated from the end point provided by the game developers. It seems that a game is like a simple beta version of life. But even crueler than the game is that we cannot experience the second or third week of life, yet every subtle choice we make does have unpredictable effects in reality, and no matter what life choices we make, we cannot escape the end of life: death. Many times, in reality, because death exists in unknown ways and restricts some of our behavior, we will not rush into the battlefield with weapons as easily as in the game, or to drive a motorcycle on the roof and fly across the road. We know that these actions are likely to lead to final results. But if we already know the exact moment of the end of death, then these constraints may be lifted by crazy thoughts.
The American writer Chloe Benjamin tried to use the novel "The Eternal" to tell such a story about fate and choice. This kind of story has been quite extensive in ancient Greek tragedies, but the difference is that in ancient Greek tragedies, the oracle of fate is relatively vague, it hides a lot of necessary information. For example, Oedipus received the oracle that he would kill his father and marry his mother, but did not know that the parents he thought were not his biological parents. "The Eternal" as a modern novel makes the prophecy more clear.
The novel begins in 1969 – a sensitive year for human civilization, and one that reflects the author’s ambitions. The main characters in the story are four siblings in the family, Varia, the oldest, Daniel, the second, Clara, who is nine, and Simon, the youngest. After several children learn that a mysterious witch lives in Hearst Street and can predict the exact date of each person’s death, they decide to secretly try it, which inadvertently changes their lives. It also makes us wonder how death – as a necessary consequence of life – affects the course of life.
"The Immortal", Author: (US) Chloe Benjamin, Translator: Zhang Yifei, Version: Utopia | Henan Literature and Art Publishing House, October 2022
If I die tomorrow
The four siblings who receive the death prophecy present four different ways of facing life – in this novel, the difference is mainly determined by the length of the rest of their lives. The most interesting of these are Simon and Daniel.
Simon, the youngest, seemed to have his soul replaced on the way home after hearing the prophecy from the witch. Simon, who was once quiet, contradicted his family at the dinner table that night and shouted "I’m happy!", even though "he was a little uncomfortable playing this role". Because of the four siblings, Simon was the youngest, but the date of death was the latest – he could only live to 20 years old. Although several children came home and said that the witch was pure nonsense, the death prophecy still affected their survival to varying degrees.
Realizing that he only had thirteen years left to live, Simon suddenly underwent a personality change. In short, he no longer tolerated it. He used to worry that his parents would find out that he was actually gay. He knew that his brothers and sisters were going away and he needed to stay to take care of his parents and the family business. But in the face of his imminent death, Simon felt that he urgently needed to burst out of his true self in the remaining life. Therefore, he chose a long journey away from home similar to running away, and put all the concerns mentioned before behind him.
"Bucket List" stills.
Simon started his "bucket list" in San Francisco. He danced in nightclubs, studied at the San Francisco Ballet Academy, slept with other men, "In New York, he would live for them, but in San Francisco, he could live for himself. And, though he didn’t want to think about it, even though he had been pathologically avoiding the topic, he now allowed himself to think about it: What if the woman on Hearst Street was right? This thought changed the color of his life. It made everything urgent, sparkling, and precious." Eventually, after a few years of this life in San Francisco, Simon contracted AIDS, which had not been named and recognized at that time, due to promiscuity, and died on the date predicted by the witch.
Daniel, the second brother, was the third of the four to die. After the death of Simon and Clara’s relatives, Daniel was extremely remorseful and hated for the prophecy given by the witch of the year, and he must find the witch in Hearst Street. With the cooperation of a police friend, Daniel found the witch’s house and asked her if she had predicted that today was the witch’s own death. The police friend who arrived in time only wanted to shoot the thigh to stop Daniel from killing the witch. Unexpectedly, the shot through the thigh shattered the aorta in the leg, causing Daniel to bleed to death. Therefore, Daniel also died on the day the witch predicted.
Stills from the movie "Bucket List".
Daniel’s death, by contrast, is more like an oracle in an ancient Greek tragedy. Daniel, 48, did not completely forget his death prophecy. He had a regular medical examination, and each time the result proved that he was in good health – perhaps it was this that gave him overconfidence. He let go of almost all his vigilance until the night of the death prophecy date. He could hardly imagine any sudden accident that could take his life, but in the end he died in an even more unexpected situation.
Logically, both Simon and Daniel’s deaths were avoidable, but it seems that both of them ran to their own deaths more accurately in different ways of avoiding death. Simon’s choice was a responsive escape, and the date of death had taken root in his heart. No matter how much he denied it, he actually believed that he had heard the prophecy and was facing an unalterable destiny. He then spent the rest of his life counting down, and in this story, it can be said that if Simon had not run away from home and hung out with gays in San Francisco, he would have probably spent his twenty-first birthday at home unscathed from AIDS. The annual physical examination was similar to his trial process, trying to confirm the failure of the witch’s prophecy. At the same time, in 2006, at the end of Daniel’s chapter, he was also caught in the circle of the death of the first two relatives. He firmly believed that the witch’s prophecy did not come true on the last day of the day, which must mean that it has failed.
Simon finally dies in the convulsion of repeating "I love you" over and over to his lover Robert. He feels that there is nothing wrong with his life. The so-called regrets are left to the logic of fate itself. Unlike the movie "Bucket List" to fulfill the wish of life, Simon’s death is just a prophecy, not as certain as a terminal illness, and his life length is too short compared to the protagonist in the movie. In Simon, we can think of the predicted death date as an encouragement to move away from the image of a good child, to engage with the life experience that he has not dared to practice before, and to encourage a person to accept the death itself. As for Daniel, he has been inquiring about the witch’s residence, trying to find someone to be responsible for the death of his relatives. The most robust person in his body may be the one who is the least afraid to face death in his heart.
Two Ways to Accept Death
The two female characters, Clara and Varia, seem to approach death prophecies in a more natural way than the two men in the family. Clara was also told that she would die at the age of 31. She also went to San Francisco to become a magician, but performed a very dangerous "jaw of life" – but on the night of a performance in 1991, Clara chose to hang herself in her room.
In Clara’s world, "death" not only exists, but also means a real world. She does not resist death, and believes that there are things in this world that can transcend death, such as human souls and consciousness. She often dreams of Simon at night, and she thinks that if she can continue to have this connection with Simon or other deceased people, it means that consciousness can continue to exist even if the body dies, she can transcend boundaries, and death does not exist at all.
Clara’s idea is philosophical. Is there room for us humans to exercise free will when cause and effect have become inevitable? This is a philosophical question that has been debated for decades. In the seventeenth century, mechanism and determinism told almost everyone that everything has cause and effect, including freedom itself, which is part of the law of causation. Later, the philosopher David Hume, in order to overthrow causality, led people into the abyss of agnosticism – everything you see is unreliable. It’s a pity that there is no Humean thinker in the novel "The Eternal" to explain this way of life. Later, Kant and other philosophers began to discuss free will, and the final result was that philosophers succeeded in prying open a hole in the world of determinism and causal logic, proving that in some small crevices, human free will has an independent and free space. Unfortunately, the space for human exercise of free will is more like a powerful placebo most of the time. After all, the behavioral decisions we make out of free will cannot resist the laws of the physical world; the human mind can invent countless ideas that despise and transcend death, but death will come in time.
Stills from the movie "Bucket List".
Clara is such a person who stares at death. She thinks she is capable of being a bridge – crossing the living and the dead to become an "immortal". She completes what she calls the task of "communicating with the dead" in Scrabble with Simon, her star performance becomes a memory for the audience, and finally she chooses to commit suicide in the days predicted by the witches. Of the four siblings, Clara is the only one to enter death by freely choosing death.
In contrast, Varia, the eldest sister who lived to the end, was more like a person who completely ignored death. This may be related to the date she was predicted to live to 88 years old, and she looks no different from a normal person. She doesn’t need to worry about the arrival of death, she just needs to make her own life rhythm and plan, and wait quietly for that day to come. Unlike a normal person, she has one (or three) more opportunities to stare at death.
Chloe Benjamin.
"Varia and her siblings had a choice, an opportunity for self-reflection. They wanted to measure time, they wanted to plan and control time. But as they chased the future, they actually got closer to that woman’s prophecy."
Chloe Benjamin’s novel "The Immortal" involves a series of major events such as the AIDS crisis, 9/11, and racial issues in the narrative span of several decades, but these issues are all dissolved in the bond of four siblings. To his credit, he does not let death fail in the face of different attitudes towards life, but maintains the suspense element of the witch’s death prophecy. Under this premise, "The Immortal" offers us the opportunity to reflect on our attitude towards life – what matters is not whether our choices can change the outcome of life, what matters is that our choices will change the course of our journey towards the outcome, and that all choices have a price, and the acceptance of the price is often the part of the real value difference in different people’s hearts that is often overlooked.

Original Yang Ying’s early nightclub photos exposed, from Chen Weiting to Huang Xiaoming, is she really happy?

Some time ago, well-known movie star Yang Ying posted his New Year’s photos through social media accounts. In the camera, Yang Ying was wearing a pink sweater and a rabbit ear-shaped hood, announcing to everyone that he was about to start work to participate in the shooting of TV dramas. After the photo was exposed, many Yang Ying fans also said that although the baby was already over 30 years old, his appearance and figure were very good, but it was a pity…

In fact, compared to the previous praise, everyone is more concerned about the later turning point, but what’s the pity? Of course, her marriage to her ex-husband Huang Xiaoming, from the wedding of the past century to the broken relationship, Yang Ying and Huang Xiaoming have only gone through a short 7 years, although the two sides still call each other friends after the divorce, but it has been done. Huang Xiaoming has also been involved in scandals recently, which shows that there is no shortage of suitors

Throughout Yang Ying’s history of fame, her debut was simply smooth sailing compared to other stars. In less than 10 years, Yang Ying grew from an obscure model on the stage to a top-tier actress with over 100 million fans. Her ex-husband Huang Xiaoming could say money and contribute, even though when the two sides were together, they were once questioned by netizens

Speaking of Yang Ying’s relationship history, we have to mention another Hong Kong and Taiwan star, William Chan. Although William Chan and Yang Ying have never admitted to this relationship, in the early days of their debut, William Chan was not only a radio partner, but also a well-known underground lover. When young, Yang Ying was photographed more than once playing and dating with William Chan, and even the two people even had the same body tattoos

If all goes well, Yang Ying and Chen Weiting may really come together, but unfortunately, after 2000, for the sake of career development, Yang Ying chose to leave Hong Kong and study in Japan. In this way, the couple began to have a foreign love, and as time grew, the contradictions became more and more, until a year later, the relationship between the two sides broke completely

It is worth mentioning that Yang Ying seemed to be very popular in Japan when she was young. In addition to her daily work, Yang Ying was always surrounded by some boys. Once in a Japanese bar, Yang Ying was also photographed celebrating her birthday with a friend. In the picture, a handsome Japanese guy was holding a wine bottle and was posing to force Yang Ying to drink. The woman was also very cooperative. It can be seen that the relationship is very harmonious

After 2006, Yang Ying returned to China for development, and soon was invited to shoot a movie "Bad Things". Unfortunately, it did not explode until one day, Yang Ying accidentally met Huang Xiaoming through a party, and the man was also impressed by her appearance. Since then, the two people have been in frequent contact and chatting

What’s interesting is that Yang Ying and Huang Xiaoming officially announced the time in 2011, because this time with Huang Xiaoming and ex-girlfriend Li Feier’s breakup relationship is relatively close, so the media also speculated that Yang Ying is actually a third party, precisely because of this, Huang Xiaoming and Yang Ying married, many people are not optimistic about this relationship

Perhaps because of emotional incompatibility, or perhaps true netizens, a prophecy was made. In 2022, Yang Ying and Huang Xiaoming officially announced their divorce and decided to raise their son together after the divorce. Although both parties were silent about the reasons for the divorce, on the variety show, Huang Xiaoming still said such a passage obliquelyI wanted a more stable life, but unfortunately I never got it.

Indeed, Huang Xiaoming has paid in this marriage, which is obvious to all, not only for the complete retirement of his wife, but also to give all the resources to the baby, but he underestimated his wife’s career, from 2015 to 2022, Yang Ying has participated in a number of variety shows, film and television dramas and even film shooting, even if the acting is complained, she can still say:"I’m worth 80 million."The rhetoric of

However, the facts also proved that the traffic was always short-lived. Since the divorce, Yang Ying’s popularity was far less than one-tenth of what it was at the beginning. The movie was stopped and the variety show was downgraded. Everything seemed to indicate her future

I wonder if Yang Ying is really happy now?

Fan Bingbing sacrificed four times for "Dongfeng Rain", acting is to solve the puzzle


Fan Bingbing


Fan Bingbing

  A few days ago, popular actress Fan Bingbing won the title of the most beautiful 50 people held by an organization for the fifth consecutive year. As an A-list star who calculates the itinerary in seconds and integrates actors, producers, and bosses, it is not easy to maintain such results. On April 21, its billion-dollar spy blockbuster "Dongfeng Rain" co-starring with "The Godfather of Spy War" Liu Yunlong will be officially released. On the stage of Xianlemen Club, the most popular in the film, she is the beautiful and enchanting singer "Huanyan", and after the curtain falls, she turns into an alert and gentle female agent: drag racing, drunk, disfigured, cracked… Fan Bingbing’s sacrifices for "Dongfeng Rain" can be described as countless. "Dedication is a man" is director Liu Yunlong’s evaluation of her. "Huanyan is just a personal code name, no one knows what her real name is, and every cell of her is a puzzle." Fan Bingbing also confessed, "The process of acting is solving puzzles."

Tears on the spot, dissatisfied with the drunken performance 

  As the most beautiful singer in the popular nightclub, Fan Bingbing is more likely to drink in the movie "East Wind and Rain". She is not a good drinker because she needs to be drunk in the film and rotate in the crowd. "I don’t know how to reflect the state after being drunk." According to Fan Bingbing himself, director Liu Yunlong took a bottle of open whiskey to "find a feeling" in order to relax her and integrate into the role as soon as possible. "After drinking half a bottle, the whole person is completely confused." It is said that at that time, Fan Bingbing wanted every angle of his rotation to be perfect, so he practiced repeatedly on the set to find the best angle. Because of this perfect requirement, director Liu Yunlong was "dissatisfied", "Director Liu said Bingbing, you are already very beautiful, don’t give yourself so much burden, just let go and act." In addition, according to Fan Bingbing’s recollection, "After listening to this sentence, I shed tears, which made Director Liu inexplicable and very embarrassed." 

Hanging high in the sky, one lens is soaked all over

  In addition to the drunken dancing scene, Fan Bingbing, who was identified by the enemy, also had an "action scene" that was suspended from the sky. The skirt during the filming of this scene was sewn with 500 meters of red yarn. After completion, due to the size of the clothes, it could not be transported through the elevator. Eventually, it could only be "airlifted" into the shed by breaking the window. In order to pursue the truest state of the actor when he was suspended, Liu Yunlong also insisted on choosing "fake play" and hung Fan Bingbing in the air. "If the costume is too heavy, it will definitely hurt Bingbing. We finally cut off the fabric with a length of about 4 meters at the corner of the skirt." According to costume stylist Liu Shiyun, "When Bingbing was lowered from the air, the whole person was completely soaked, and he could really stick to it." Not easy. "

37 hours of drag racing and sleepless nights

  In the movie "East Wind and Rain", Liu Yunlong was discovered by Japanese agents and Fan Bingbing fled late at night in a drag racing scene, which was the last and most difficult scene of the film. Since the script was played by Fan Bingbing’s "Huanyan" driving, this was another challenge for Fan Bingbing, who had poor driving skills. In addition, the bridge itself was set in the middle of the night, and driving under dark road conditions was already extremely dangerous. For a time, the entire crew became a "temporary driving school". Everyone made plans. In less than a day, Fan Bingbing first mastered the turning and reversing skills smoothly, and when the official shooting started, he was more on-site "cleaning people". "Drive everyone away When you get to the house, try not to leave obstacles on the road and let Bingbing run away. "Director Liu Yunlong showed even more good intentions when talking about the filming of this scene. For Fan Bingbing, the 37-hour sleepless night is his enemy," Because of the relationship between the skin, I usually pay attention to sleep. I am busy with work but I always take time to sleep. This is the first time I haven’t slept for so long. After surviving, I feel that it will be fine if I don’t sleep for two days and two nights in the future. "

Severely disfigured, the golden horse is best to "possess" again

  As early as 2007, Fan Bingbing won the Golden Horse Best Supporting Actress of the year for his subversive appearance of "Manli" in "Ghost in the Heart"; three years later, "Huanyan", who was severely disfigured at the end of "Dongfeng Rain", rode away in a prison van, vaguely as if "Manli" was possessed. For an actor, choosing to play a subversive role requires not only luck, but also infinite courage and courage before the choice. "Every cell of Huanyan is a mystery, and this hazy identity illusion is the most fatal attraction for me, and the whole process of acting is like solving a puzzle, and the answer is only known at the last moment." For Fan Bingbing, "Xiba" can be regarded as a synonym for the time being. I believe that behind the torture and sacrifice in "Dongfeng Rain", "Xiba" is her final destination.
 

The original 68-year-old Wang Jianlin appeared in plain clothes, with a haggard face and a very thin figure. He was escorted by many people

Recently, when some netizens went out to play, they happened to encounter business tycoon Wang Jianlin inspecting his work. This time he looked very haggard. My physical condition can’t help but worry me.

When it comes to Wang Jianlin, the first thing that people think of is the business empire he built. Many large and medium-sized cities in our country have one or more "Wanda Plaza". As a businessperson, Wang Jianlin is undoubtedly very successful.

Wang Jianlin, who was born in October 1954, is approaching his 69th birthday. Although he is nearly 70 years old, he is still working in the front line and often travels to various places.

Judging from the live video shared by netizens, Wang Jianlin should be inspecting a certain project. He listened carefully to the narrator’s introduction as he walked. There were six or seven people protecting him by his side. Everyone walked towards the tourist bus in front of them. Get ready for your next destination.

Although the itinerary was quite grand, Wang Jianlin dressed very low-key, wearing sportswear, and his hair was simply combed, making him look casual and capable.

After the video was released, many netizens noticed Wang Jianlin’s vicissitudes and left messages: "I’m old and thin", "Why have I lost so much weight?"

When the picture was enlarged, it was clear that Wang Jianlin, 68, was indeed much older. Tall as he was, he looked thin. The skin on his face was drooping, his cheeks were sunken, and his arms were smaller than those behind him. The guards were noticeably thinner.

No wonder some netizens commented that Wang Jianlin was not in good condition. I don’t know if he didn’t get enough rest or if he encountered something unsatisfactory in his business. Wang Jianlin looked very haggard. Not only were his bags deep under his eyes, but his eyelids were also heavy. Dark circles under his eyes.

This contrasts sharply with the high-spirited singing "False Walking Monk" on stage.

When netizens saw that Wang Jianlin had such a huge business empire, but he was so hard and haggard, they left messages urging him to take care of his health while busy with his career.

It is not difficult to find from public reports that Wang Jianlin has often traveled to various places to negotiate business in recent years. At the same age, others may have already enjoyed family life, but Wang Jianlin is constantly on the road.

A few years ago, some netizens happened to meet Wang Jianlin, who was also working out. It seems that the fatigue of work made him realize that he must pay attention to his health. Wang Jianlin looked much stronger then than he is now. In just a few years, he has changed so much.

Speaking of Wang Jianlin, everyone will think of his son Wang Sicong. A reporter once said that after seeing Wang Jianlin’s itinerary, he felt that every day was very hard.

Unexpectedly, Wang Sicong’s answer was very straightforward: "That’s because it was a very hard day, so people pointed it out. Don’t believe this kind of chicken soup easily."

This answer is quite surprising, but it is in line with Wang Sicong’s usual style.

Compared to Wang Jianlin’s efforts, Wang Sicong’s life is more in line with our imagination of the rich. Not only does he often travel to various places and attend parties, but he is also surrounded by beautiful women. He is much more dashing and happy than his father Wang Jianlin.

Wang Sicong still has a lot of honest speech. A reporter asked Wang Jianlin, which title makes you feel the most uncomfortable?

Wang Jianlin’s answer is that rich people are the least happy, but in fact I am very educated.

As a result, when "good old man" Wang Sicong came to see him, he ruthlessly exposed his father’s background. He said his father was not as educated. He joined the army at 16 and had a difficult education.

I wonder how Wang Jianlin will feel after listening.

In any case, good health is the most important thing. Body is the capital of revolution. I hope Wang Jianlin, who is about to enter his seventies, can take care of his health after work.

The man ordered takeout and was eaten by the rider, and was also threatened by the rider’s text messages

  Qilu Evening News (reporter, Qi Yunlei, intern, He Xishuang) At noon on July 22, Mr. Qi, a citizen of Jinan, ordered a takeaway through Ele.me, but he didn’t expect to wait for more than an hour before receiving it. After contacting the delivery rider, the rider actually claimed that he was taking revenge on the person who ordered the takeaway, and sent a text message to abuse and threaten Mr. Qi. At present, the Ele.me platform has been involved in the investigation, and a delivery manager of Ele.me said that he will pay Mr. Qi.

  At around 7pm on the 22nd, the netizens "Cen Cen _" broke the news on the Internet, saying that he ordered a takeaway through Ele.me at noon, but did not expect to be eaten by the rider who delivered the food. "This person took the order to get the meal, and then ordered to complete the order for himself to eat. Then the mobile phone was turned off and could not be contacted. Ele.me customer service did not care. The responsibility was pushed to the merchant, and the merchant was pushed to Ele.me." netizens said.

  According to the exposed order, the reporter saw that netizens spent 32.75 yuan to order takeout, showing that it was delivered at 1:34 pm, and the delivery rider was Liu. However, two other screenshots show that Liu sent multiple text messages to netizens at 3:29 to abuse, with a bad attitude and a lot of swear words. He also said "we are in the dark" and "be careful of bricks these days", and made verbal threats to netizens.

  At 9 PM on the 22nd, the reporter contacted Mr. Qi, who broke the news. According to his introduction, he ordered the takeaway at 12 noon. An hour later, although the Ele.me order showed that the takeaway had been delivered to the destination, it was strange that he did not get the takeaway.

  Then, Mr. Qi tried to contact the rider to ask where his takeaway was, but the rider’s phone could not get through. He contacted the customer service of Ele.me again, but the customer service staff put the responsibility on the merchant and did not deal with it. In desperation, Mr. Qi contacted a regional manager of Ele.me, who just asked him to order another takeaway without explaining the relevant problems.

  Then why did the rider send abusive text messages? Mr. Qi said that he later contacted the delivery rider Liu and asked why the other party did not deliver the food to him. As a result, the rider told him that the food was indeed in his hands, and he ordered the delivery on purpose without delivering it. The purpose is to treat people like him who specialize in ordering food, because they do not get paid. "It sounds like he has a kind of revenge mentality."

  Mr. Qi told reporters that he had contacted Liu with another mobile phone number at the time, but Liu began to keep calling and harassing him, one after another, and even sent text messages to abuse him. Unbearable, Mr. Qi complained again to Ele.me customer service, but the customer service staff only sent him the rider’s information and asked him to contact the rider himself. "They did this so incorrectly that they haven’t dealt with it until now," Mr. Qi said.

  According to the situation reported by Mr. Qi, the reporter tried to contact the rider involved to verify the relevant information, but Liu’s mobile phone has been unanswered.

  Subsequently, the reporter contacted a manager surnamed Li who was in charge of takeaway delivery at Ele.me. Regarding the situation that Mr. Qi placed an order but did not get the takeaway, Manager Li said that they would negotiate with the merchant to compensate Mr. Qi. As for the rider’s abuse and threats against Mr. Qi, Manager Li said he was not clear and they would verify.

  Reporters noticed that when Mr. Qi exposed the rider online, Ele.me official Weibo quickly responded and apologized to the user for the matter, saying that it would private message the parties and communicate the specific situation.

  "Money is a small matter, but I am very dissatisfied with the way Ele.me handles it. The takeaway was not delivered, the rider scolded people, and the customer service has been dragging it out." At 10 pm on the 22nd, Mr. Qi said that the staff of the Ele.me platform had called him back, and the other party would refund him today.

It is reported that the Xingyue L 5G-AVP 1km unmanned parking system is equipped with the world’s first super-domain controller of Texas Instruments and a super-sensing system consisting of 24 sensors covering the whole vehicle, which can calculate the dynamic and static obstacles such as roads, pedestrians, road signs and roadblocks online, and the intelligence exceeds the industry models, bringing users a safe, reliable, worry-free and convenient parking experience. As the first automobile enterprise in the industry to mass-produce this high-level autonomous driving technology, Geely Automobile has demonstrated its strong technical strength.

Demonstrate the powerful strength of technology Geely 4.0 Geely 5G-AVP will realize parking freedom.

Driving and parking in the city has always been a difficult problem. With the continuous increase of car ownership, "difficulty in parking and picking up cars" has become the second biggest pain point after "traffic jam". In order to solve this problem, most car companies are working on automatic parking technology. From the initial ultrasonic radar, reversing image assisted parking, to APA automatic parking using multiple sensors, and then to RPA remote parking technology carried by some new models. As the spokesperson of the powerful strength and the latest technology of Geely 4.0, Xingyue L, combined with the development of the previous stages, has surpassed RPA remote parking technology in its automatic parking technology. At present, it has reached the unmanned parking technology of 5G-AVP 1km, and will explore to enter the parking service stage of AVP intelligent cloud map in the future.

The world’s first 5G-AVP 1km unmanned parking technology, Xingyue L, can currently complete powerful functions such as 100% unmanned driving, obstacle avoidance, intelligent parking space search, autonomous parking and parking within 200 meters round-trip distance through vehicle self-learning. In scenes with fixed parking spaces such as home and office, the vehicle only needs to complete route learning once, and the user can get off the bus in advance, and the vehicle can find the parking space independently to complete parking. When picking up the car, the mobile phone also calls the vehicle to automatically drive to the user’s location, which completely liberates the user from repeated parking.

According to Geely technicians, Xingyue L’s 5G-AVP 1km unmanned parking technology will realize full-scene parking in the underground parking lot, and vehicles will automatically travel to any location. When the user goes out to pick up the car, he can remotely call Xingyue L by tAPPing the mobile phone app, and the car can automatically start, park out and drive to the set pick-up point. When parking after work, the driver can get off early when driving within the automatic parking map. Xingyue L will automatically drive and search for parking spaces, avoid obstacles on the way, and lock the parking spaces, which can realize automatic parking of different parking spaces such as vertical and parallel. After the parking is successful, Xingyue L will automatically take photos and accept the inspection of users. This technology does not need the driver’s participation in the whole process, which truly realizes the complete automatic driving, helps users solve the parking problem and greatly facilitates the user’s experience.

Xingyue L 5G-AVP 1km unmanned parking system has 360TOPS+8TOPS overspeed computing power through the high-speed and low-speed fusion algorithm of 24 sensing elements including 12 ultrasonic radars, 5 millimeter-wave radars and 7 high-definition cameras, and can calculate road information and dynamic and static obstacles in real time, and realize L4-class unmanned driving technology in some scenes and working conditions. According to relevant comparative tests, the unmanned parking technology of 5G-AVP 1km of Xingyue L is superior to the new power star model Tesla Model Y in terms of the farthest control distance and parking function, which greatly subverts the aura of "idol" and reshapes the market’s cognition of China brand high-end SUV.

Evolvable Xingyue L with FOTA upgrade will realize L4 AVP driverless technology.

Geely Automobile is one of the first automobile enterprises to obtain the license of intelligent networked automobile test in the Yangtze River Delta. It has accumulated rich technology and experience in the field of automatic driving. It not only took the lead in popularizing L2 intelligent driving assistance system to its vehicles, but also became the first China brand to realize the full-scale mass production of L2 intelligent driving technology. Moreover, the allocation rate and market share of newly-produced L2 intelligent driving vehicles in the industry reached the first place, benefiting the intelligent travel life of millions of users.

In the completely unmanned scene, absolute accurate positioning and low delay are needed to ensure driving safety, which requires high-precision maps to reach centimeter level. In recent years, Geely has comprehensively laid out the field of commercial satellites, consolidating the underground structure of the integration of heaven and earth. With the formation of Geely’s low-orbit satellite layout, the navigation accuracy will be improved to centimeter level, providing systematic positioning services for future high-level intelligent driving. This time, the 5G-AVP 1km unmanned parking technology carried by Xingyue L is an overall improvement of Geely brand parking technology. In addition, with the FOTA upgrade and evolution of the whole vehicle with full functional domain, it is believed that the parking service function of AVP intelligent cloud image will be realized soon.

As the new flagship of SUV under the CMA framework of Geely Automobile, Xingyue L will be the first safe and intelligent fuel vehicle to reach L4 level, breaking the boundary between old and new forces and opening a new stage of intelligent driving, and its subversive strength is increasingly expected. In the future when 5G, sensor technology and infrastructure become more mature, cars will be smarter. Xingyue L, which is homologous to the whole world and can be upgraded and evolved by FOTA, will surely promote the further improvement of driverless technology, and continuously evolve in the direction of automation, bringing more, higher, faster and stronger cutting-edge intelligent technologies to the people, which is bound to detonate the new trend in the mainstream market.
