On the Development History of China Restaurants

During this time, I read a book, which was written by Katie Rosen, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania in the United States. In his book, he wrote: "The earliest restaurant in the world appeared in Kaifeng, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty around 1100 AD …" I really can’t agree with this conclusion.

When did the China restaurant appear? Although there is no detailed record in the history books. However, according to Han Feizi, as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were many wineries in the urban and rural areas of the Song Dynasty, such as the Zhuang family, which were "very beautiful for wine" and "very hospitable to guests", and "hung high" outside the wineries. The "sign" here is equivalent to the "screen" or "curtain" for later wineries to attract customers. At the same time, Records of the Historian, which was written more than 2,000 years ago, recorded that Liu Bang, the Emperor Gaozu, was lustful and joyful when he was young. He often went to Wang Wei and Wu Fu to drink on credit and fell asleep when he was drunk. Wang Wei and Wu Fu also found that whenever Liu Bang drinks in the shop, the number of people who come to buy wine will increase exponentially.

Xin Yannian, a famous poet in the Eastern Han Dynasty, once wrote a poem in "Yu Lin Lang": "In the fifteenth year of Hu Ji’s reign, spring will be the only day. Long tie, wide sleeves, acacia …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. As far as I’m concerned, I’m asking for rare dishes, and I’m eating carp in a golden plate. " These poems vividly show that as early as the Qin and Han Dynasties, China not only had a liquor store specializing in selling wine, but also used exquisite wine utensils, and even the shredded carp in the golden plate was cut very beautifully.

The reason why Katie Rosen set the appearance time of China restaurant in the Northern Song Dynasty may be influenced by the separate dining system in China. The dining system in China has a long history, and it was still popular in the Han Dynasty at least 2,000 years ago. When eating separately, everyone sits on the floor, with a low small dining table with utensils and wine on it. If someone comes to propose a toast, the diner will leave the small table and prostrate himself on the ground in order to show his humility and respect for the toaster, so it is called "avoiding seats".

During the period of Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty, Tian Fen, the uncle of Emperor Liu Che, was married, and the civil and military officials in the DPRK went to congratulate her. During the dinner, in order to thank the guests, Tian Fen got up and made a toast. The guests who were sitting left their seats and fell on the ground, expressing their gratitude. In order to ease the contradiction with Tian Fen, Dou Ying, the prime minister of the dynasty, also took the opportunity to stand up and propose a toast to the guests. Among the guests present, except for some old friends of Dou Ying who got up and left their seats, the rest half of them sat there as usual, only slightly indebted to the upper body. Therefore, Dou Ying’s intimate friend irrigation husband made a big banquet in order to save face for Dou Ying. Eventually, Tian Dou became hostile, and Guan Fu and Dou Ying were beheaded successively.

During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, frequent wars made the traditional customs, life order and closely related etiquette system established in the Central Plains since the Yin and Zhou Dynasties strongly impacted. Especially with the influx of high tables and chairs in the western regions, the dining system of sitting on the floor in the Central Plains has also changed.

The time from China’s meal-sharing system to dinner-sharing system is also vague. However, at least we have seen the embryonic form of dinner-sharing system in the famous masterpiece Han Xizai’s Night Banquet by Gu Hongzhong, a famous painter in the Southern Tang Dynasty. In this famous painting, there are not only high tables and big chairs, but also many people eating at the same table. Although the food placed in front of each of them is exactly the same, it is still very different from the dining system in Qin and Han Dynasties.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, the dining system has become the mainstream of society, which we can see from Zhang Zeduan’s The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival. Let me tell you another story here: During the Northern Song Dynasty, Wang Anshi’s colleagues invited him to dinner and found that Wang Anshi only ate the nearest dish of taro. Wang Anshi’s colleagues thought that Wang Anshi liked taro and sent many taro to the palace afterwards. Mrs. Wang was surprised and said, "My" xianggong "doesn’t like taro. Isn’t there any other food before my" xianggong "?

From this allusion, we can also know that the separation and gathering in the Northern Song Dynasty was very popular. The prevalence of separation and gathering, as Katie Rosen wrote in "Xiasa Pavilion", "benefits from Kaifeng’s huge population, relatively prosperous economy and rich food categories and cooking methods". As far as Tokyo, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, is concerned, the famous restaurants are Fan Lou, Panlou, Huixian Restaurant, etc. If the plot of Water Margin is to be believed, it is in Jiangzhou Xunyang Building that Sung River burps, rides in a drunken mood, grinds to a thick ink and dips in his pen, and inscribes the "anti-poem" on the white powder wall that makes him have no turning back.

Ne Zha predicted that he was the "worst and meanest" starter.

1905 movie network news Created jointly by Light Striped House Film (Big Fish Begonia, Great Protector), Cocoa Bean Animation (Beat, Beat a Big Watermelon) and October Culture (Return of the Great Sage), Ne Zha, a comedy animated film, released a preview of "It’s him, it’s him", which made the debut of the most "bad" Nezha in the history of subverting the traditional image. The film is directed by jiaozi, a genius director born in 1980s, who is famous for his comedy style. From the preview, it is not difficult to find that the film Ne Zha incorporates a lot of comedy elements and presents a "mean" Nezha full of jokes. The film will be released nationwide in 2019.

 

The genius director broke through the classic comedy style, and Nezha burst into laughter.


The film was directed by jiaozi, a genius born in 1980s. As early as 2009, he launched an animated comedy short film "Hit, Hit a Big Watermelon", which not only scored 8.6 in Douban, but also won more than 30 awards in 27 professional competitions at home and abroad. As his first animated film work, Ne Zha made a subversive creation on the basis of myths and legends, which continued the director’s humorous temperament and had a strong comedy style.


It can be seen from the notice released this time. In appearance, the film breaks through the tradition and boldly creates a brand-new image of Nezha: Nezha, who is wearing two "dark circles" of Qing Wu, presents a "mixed-world magic boy" temperament; In character, he has added the characteristics of unruly wildness and unrestrained. Nezha, the troublemaker who teased the people with his hands in his pockets and playing around, became a little bully with a bad smile and set fire to the street, full of joy. Just like the self-deprecating limerick at the beginning of the preview: "I am a little monster, carefree and comfortable, killing people without blinking, eating people without putting salt."


In the short 30-second preview, we can see that the characters in the film are set with "interesting contrast" in many places: the big guy has a shrill voice, but Nezha has a low "magnetic" voice at an early age, which is full of jokes.

 

Three "big" animation production teams jointly produced four years to create a sincere work.


The film Ne Zha has been in preparation for more than four years, and it is jointly produced by Striped House Film, Cocoa Bean Animation and October Culture. Among them, striped house film industry is one of the leading cultural enterprises that have been committed to developing domestic animated films for many years, and has produced many excellent domestic animated films such as Big Fish Begonia and Great Protection. Cocoa bean animation has made "Hit, hit a big watermelon", which is called "the most original animation short film of Chinese" by netizens. October Culture is a well-known animation original production company with rich experience. The masterpiece Return of the Great Sage has a double harvest at the word-of-mouth box office and won 956 million yuan at the box office, making it a benchmark for the country. This is also the first time that October Culture participated in the joint production. What surprises the three animation companies will bring to the market is expected.

 

The film Ne Zha is jointly produced by Striped House Film, Cocoa Bean Animation and October Culture. The film will be released in the summer of 2019, and the worst Nezha in history is expected to be tested by everyone.

Five seasons "this! It is street dance, an advanced history of national comprehensive education.

This summer, "This! As soon as the fifth season of "Street Dance" was broadcast, it ranked first in the variety list with a full-end broadcast market share of 9.28%; According to Lighthouse Professional Edition, "This! That is, Street Dance 5 was launched for 1 hour, and the market share of real-time whole-network variety feature films was as high as 45%, accounting for nearly half. In the first phase, it ranked first in the comprehensive program of the whole network.

Behind the numbers, it reflects the word-of-mouth and popularity accumulated by a program in the past five years. After five years of enthusiasm, for many viewers, the summer without hip-hop is incomplete. Last year’s fourth season, "This! It is street dance that ended the last stage with the international elite challenge. What higher level can this program go to? The audience is full of great expectations and expectations, but it is undoubtedly an unknown challenge for the program creators.

This year, "This! In the fifth season, Hip-hop didn’t choose to move forward on the established safe road, but walked out of the comfort zone, started from the "new" and focused on the growth of the new generation with a responsibility of shouldering the future development mission of hip-hop culture. Under the brand-new theme of "Battle For Hope", the program is positioned as "Training Camp for Young Dancers" and the competition system has been upgraded. The contestants have to go through the selection and elimination again and again in three months to interpret the topic of "inheritance" of China street dance.

"this! It is the three highlights of the fifth season of Street Dance:

Cenozoic, Parallel Universe, Immersion Experience

1. Focus on the new generation of street dance in the future.

The core concept of street dance in the fifth season is "youth", with a brand-new lineup of dancers and a new generation of dancers becoming the absolute protagonists of this season’s program. In the training camp for young dancers, the proportion of "post-95" dancers exceeds 90%, and 50% are "post-00". The outstanding dancers in the first four seasons are incarnated as "master groups" to escort young dancers. Street dance needs representative figures, OG (predecessors), as well as young blood and young people’s own representatives. After the launch of the fifth season, young players such as Zaizai, Zhou Yuxiang, Ang Ang, Sniper and Badd machine quickly emerged with their strength. The program not only shows young people their own stage, shows the new generation of young people’s playing methods and preferences, their wild imagination, their different personalities, but also gives them propositions and challenges, and stimulates the infinite potential of young people with the competition system.

In the first round of points elimination, young dancers competed in the form of teams for their works, 1v1 and routine battle respectively. The upgraded competition system was even more cruel, from the original "tie-break" to a battle wheel battle, and the team that took the lead in completing the cumulative points goal won. The score was tied and the battle was very fierce. Finally, with the joint efforts of all the dancers, 32 rounds of the battle were completed, which directly set a new record for the number of rounds of the Battle on the street dance stage. As the team leader, young dancer Doudou, with a waist injury, still completed the performance of her work with high quality and participated in the battle session with great pain. Doudou’s persistence greatly inspired everyone on the scene, and the team members were even more uncompromising, and they became more and more brave, becoming the ultimate winner of the battle Wheel War in the absence of one person in the team. This shows us the enthusiasm and determination of this group of young people to dance, and also feels the spiritual core of the program "Let’s be brave sometimes and pass on hope".

2. Create a new concept of street dance parallel universe.

This season’s "This! It is street dance that puts forward the concept of "parallel universe" of street dance very imaginatively. Under the guidance of this core concept, the past four seasons can be regarded as a hip-hop universe bearing the glory of yesterday. In the fifth season, it is necessary to discover and create another new hip-hop universe, a world belonging to the future, which is in harmony with the fifth season, namely, youth and rookie competition.

The parallel universe of street dance is both traditional and contemporary; It belongs to both the pioneers and the later generations. They are parallel, complement each other, and even cross each other, breaking the "uniqueness". Plurality and richness are the core essence of parallel universes.

At the same time, the parallel universe also implies another important theme: growth. The parallel universe is full of unknowns. If you are in the parallel universe, can you imagine what you might be like in another parallel universe and how to deal with sudden challenges? Whether you will make efforts to become a better you. Therefore, the highlight of this season is not the "Great God", but how a young man chooses, grows up, becomes a stronger self gradually, and even moves from obscurity to an influential international stage.

3. Multi-scene immersive new dance beauty

The concept of street dance parallel universe needs to be further grounded through the beauty of dance in the program, so this season’s beauty of dance has made a big breakthrough than before. The original ambience design of four theme streets has been replaced by two parallel universes, one representing "tradition" and taking the old school style, and the other representing "future", which is full of futuristic sense of science and technology, and the two-dimensional plane dance beauty originally used as the background has been upgraded to a three-dimensional space in an all-round way, so that dancers can better blend in and perform, and also bring the audience the immersion feeling of shuttling between different parallel worlds.

This season’s dance beauty pays great attention to the creation of atmosphere and the experience of people in the space, creating daily social life scenes that young people are very familiar with, such as basketball square, skateboarding park, campsite, game room, singing room, barbecue house and so on. In these rich and varied scenes, young people show themselves, communicate and find companions through street dance, which is also the real social state of young people at present.

It is worth mentioning that the recording site of this season’s program itself is a building with a sense of the times, and the "row column", an element with historical specificity inside the building space, has been preserved and presented by the choreographer. In the beautiful dance design of the main stage of the race, two rows of towering reinforced concrete columns lead our view to a deep place, like a tunnel of time and space, which can return to the historical scene and witness the birth of a new history. In such a unique aesthetic space, silent and exploding, two cultures with different faces and styles have a fierce collision.

When we combine the new generation, parallel universe and immersive experience, this season’s "This! It is street dance that fully reflects the characteristics of the post-Internet era and the development trend of youth group culture. With the continuous development of street dance IP, derivative interactive applications of derivative programs and social attributes have been launched. It’s hip-hop, which shows us the infinite possibilities of hip-hop. It’s a medium, a field, or a universe that seeks the coexistence of souls.

The national comprehensive sample "this! It’s street dance

Write an advanced history of national synthesis in five seasons

"this! It’s street dance, which has maintained its innovation and vitality for five seasons. From the ice-breaking in the first season, the broken circle in the second season, to the leap in the third season, and the transnational in the fourth season, we can say, "This! In four years’ time, It’s Street Dance presents the audience with an encyclopedia of street dance culture, a list of street dance celebrities, intergenerational inheritance, countless scenes, etc., and has completed a whole set of knowledge and aesthetic system structure about street dance.

Simon Lu, the general director, said frankly that although this program puts the culture of hip-hop circles at a stage where the mass communication can be perceived, it uses the resources accumulated by China hip-hop circles over the years. This year is a "hematopoietic" program, and a "hematopoietic" program is always more difficult than a consumption-oriented program. This is for sure.

Since the five seasons, this program has been embedded in the historical process of the progress and development of domestic variety shows in terms of conceptual changes and commercial expansion, and has also been continuously improved and enlarged in three dimensions.

At the level of program innovation, "This! It is street dance that has created an original and internationally recognized program model. The program firmly grasps "battle" and "Work", the two core elements of street dance, and combines the beautiful dance form with visual impact to make the charm of this culture itself visible to everyone, reflecting the creativity and value of art itself.

At the level of industry value, innovation, breaking the circle and cross-border integration. "this! It is street dance that shoulders the mission of promoting street dance culture and cultivating new dancers, and promotes the rapid development of street dance industry at home and abroad.

At the level of social value, "this! Hip-hop reflects the social responsibility of the creators and platforms, deeply resonates and connects with social reality and people’s current life feelings, and always advocates positive values. As the general director Simon Lu said, "I have always felt that making programs can’t be too light. Aside from the beauty and entertainment of the program itself, a program should also give people a sense of faith and strength. In this program, I hope everyone can see that when the younger generation encounters particularly great difficulties and challenges, they can stand up and be willing to fight. If people who watch this program are in a particularly unstable or insecure state, they can also get some encouragement from it. In short, "hope" is very important. "

The fifth season "This! The slogan of "Street Dance" is "Battle for Hope". From Peace and Love to Battle for Hope, the fifth season will become a landmark iteration of this variety show. The "Battle" spirit of hip-hop gives the program the courage to break through without setting limits, which is the inexhaustible vitality of the program. I hope this spirit can be injected into a new generation of young audiences with this national variety show and become a spiritual force that affects the growth of a generation.

It is 800 years since "Chongyi Hakka Terrace" became an important agricultural cultural heritage in the world.

  China Jiangxi Network Ganzhou News CorrespondentLiu binReport: At about 17: 00 Beijing time on April 19th, 2018, news came from the headquarters of FAO in Rome, Italy. At the 5th GIAHS International Forum, 14 projects in China, Egypt, Japan, South Korea, Mexico, Portugal, Spain and Sri Lanka were awarded the title of "Global Important Agricultural Cultural Heritage". "Rice Terrace System in Southern Mountainous Areas of China"-"Hakka Terrace in Chongyi, Jiangxi" was officially recognized as an important global agricultural cultural heritage, and was awarded the license by FAO on the spot. Liu Chunxiang, the county leader, attended the forum in Rome on behalf of the county party committee and government and accepted the award from Ms. Sai Mei Duo, Deputy Director-General of FAO. Since then, "Jiangxi Chongyi Hakka Terrace" has officially stepped out of the country and entered the world.

  It is reported that there are four new projects in China this time: rice terraced field system in southern mountainous areas of China, agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry complex system in Zhagana, Diebu, Gansu, mulberry fish pond system in Huzhou, Zhejiang, and ancient mulberry trees in Xiajin, Shandong. So far, 15 projects in China have entered the world’s important agricultural cultural heritage protection family, ranking first in the world.

  In 2014, the Chongyi County Party Committee and the county government officially launched the application for the Hakka terraced fields. In the past four years, around the "protection, inheritance and development" of terraced fields, the county has spared no effort to make the Hakka terraced fields "original".

  From September 17th to 19th, 2017, Hailinda Ouyiqi, an expert from the Expert Advisory Group of the Global Important Agricultural Cultural Heritage (GIAHS) of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), and her party visited our county for a three-day investigation and evaluation of the global important agricultural cultural heritage.

  On September 26, 2017, news came from the headquarters of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in Rome, Italy, and the request for the global important agricultural cultural heritage "Chongyi Hakka Terrace System" declared by our county was approved in principle by the experts of the GIAHS Scientific Advisory Committee.

  On February 5th, 2018, FAO sent a letter to China’s Ministry of Agriculture, confirming that "China Southern Mountain Rice Terrace System" was selected as a global important agricultural cultural heritage, and Jiangxi Chongyi Hakka Terrace was selected as a sub-project of "China Southern Rice Terrace System" as a global important agricultural cultural heritage (GIAHS).

  On April 19, 2018, the "China Southern Mountain Rice Terrace System"-"Jiangxi Chongyi Hakka Terrace" was officially recognized as an important global agricultural cultural heritage, and was awarded by the FAO in Rome, Italy.

  It is reported that "Jiangxi Chongyi Hakka Terrace" existed in the Southern Song Dynasty, which was built in the late Ming Dynasty and completed in the early Qing Dynasty, with a history of more than 800 years. Looking at the Hakka terraces, I saw a chain-like belt, winding from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, layered on top of each other and strewn at random; Seen from a height, the beautiful lines of terraced fields are one by one, or parallel or cross, winding like spring snails and spreading like a cloud tower, showing the fascinating curvaceous beauty. Its lines are flowing, natural and unrestrained, and it is known as the "beautiful ladder", and it is also one of the oldest ancient terraced fields in China. Pieces, rows and rows of terraced fields are like a heavy epic across the world, witnessing the wisdom and sweat of Hakka ancestors and becoming a spectacle of Hakka farming civilization. At present, Chongyi Hakka Terrace Reserve covers an area of more than 40,000 mu, stretching over Shangbao, Fengzhou and Sishun townships, with more than 30,000 mu in Shangbao alone. The scope of the reserve is 73 kilometers from east to west and 59 kilometers from north to south.

In 2018, a big wave of new policies will be related to your "wallet" from July 1.

  In a blink of an eye, 2018 is about halfway through. In July, there is a big wave of new policies about your wallet: the reduction of tariffs on imported consumer goods, the cancellation of traffic roaming fees, etc. What other new policies are there?

  1 enterprise employees’ pensions shall be subject to the central adjustment system.

  The State Council recently issued the Notice on Establishing the Central Adjustment System of the Basic Endowment Insurance Fund for Enterprise Employees, and decided to establish the central adjustment system of the endowment insurance fund, which will be implemented on July 1, 2018. On the basis of the current provincial overall planning of basic old-age insurance for enterprise employees, a central adjustment fund for old-age insurance will be established, and the old-age insurance funds in various provinces will be appropriately adjusted to ensure that basic pensions are paid in full and on time.

  The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security said that the implementation of the central fund transfer system will not increase the burden on enterprises and individuals and will not affect the treatment of retirees. First, do not increase the proportion of contributions paid by enterprises and individual employees. The establishment of a central fund adjustment system is mainly to adjust the surplus and deficiency of funds between provinces. The total income and expenditure of the national endowment insurance fund in the current period has not changed, and enterprises and individual employees do not need to pay extra fees, which will not increase the overall burden of society. Second, it will not change the current pension insurance benefits calculation and adjustment methods, and will not affect the personal benefits of retirees. In some provinces, the amount of funds borrowed is greater than the amount of funds allocated. In these provinces, the burden of old-age care is relatively light and the fund support ability is strong. After adjustment, it will not affect the timely and full payment of current pensions. In some provinces, the amount of funds allocated is greater than that of the above solution. Through adjustment, the pressure of fund payment can be appropriately alleviated, and the basic pension can be better guaranteed to be paid in full and on time.

  2. Adjustment of social security payment base

  Many places in the country have successively announced the social security payment base in 2018. Taking Beijing as an example, the lower limit of the payment base for employees participating in basic old-age insurance and unemployment insurance is 40% of the average monthly salary of employees in Beijing in 2017, with a minimum of 3,387 yuan, which is 305 yuan higher than last year; For employees who participate in basic medical insurance, industrial injury insurance and maternity insurance, the minimum payment base is 60% of the average monthly salary of employees in this city in 2017, with a minimum of 5,080 yuan, up 456 yuan from last year.

  Social security payment is related to the treatment of the insured after retirement. Only when a certain payment level is reached can a better treatment level be achieved. If the payment level is too low, the pension level is still low. In other words, the payment level will increase with the increase of average salary, and the future treatment level will also increase.

  3. The tax incentives for scientific and technical personnel will be "received"

  The Ministry of Finance, the State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China and the Ministry of Science and Technology jointly issued the Notice on Individual Income Tax Policies for Scientific and Technological Personnel to Earn Cash Rewards from Their Post Scientific and Technological Achievements, which made it clear that since July 1, 2018, non-profit research and development institutions and institutions of higher learning approved according to the law on promoting the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, the cash rewards given to scientific and technological personnel from their post scientific and technological achievements can be included in the "salary and salary income" of scientific and technological personnel in the current month at a reduced rate of 50%, and personal income tax can be paid according to law.

  It is cheaper to import daily consumer goods.

  With the approval of the State Council, the MFN tariff rate of some consumer goods will be reduced from July 1, 2018, involving 1449 tax items, and the average tax rate will be reduced from 15.7% to 6.9%, with an average decrease of 55.9%. Reduce the average import tariff rate of clothing, shoes and hats, kitchens and sports and fitness products from 15.9% to 7.1%; Reduce the average import tariff rate of household appliances such as washing machines and refrigerators from 20.5% to 8%; Reduce the average import tariff rate of processed foods such as aquaculture, fishing aquatic products and mineral water from 15.2% to 6.9%; The average import tariff rate of washing products, cosmetics such as skin care and hairdressing and some medical and health products will be reduced from 8.4% to 2.9%.

  5. Tariff reduction of imported cars and parts.

  With the approval of the State Council, from July 1, 2018, the tariffs on automobiles with tax rates of 25% and 20% will be reduced to 15%, with tax reductions of 40% and 25% respectively; The tariffs on auto parts with tax rates of 8%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25% will be reduced to 6%, with an average tax reduction of 46%.

  6. The vehicle purchase tax will be levied on the trailer by half.

  The Ministry of Finance, State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China, and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly issued the Announcement on Reducing Vehicle Purchase Tax on Trailers.

English drama "Public Relations": How to help celebrities "wipe their bottoms"

For most people who eat melons, the work of public relations (PR) is both unfamiliar and familiar. On the one hand, public relations are often over-deified and demonized. In the public’s imagination, they are either behind-the-scenes traders or professional liars who turn black and white upside down; On the other hand, in today’s public opinion environment, it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish what is news and what is soft text, and public relations are everywhere, which largely determines what information we can access, thus affecting our judgment on many public events.

Poster of public relations

The British drama Flack, which began to broadcast on Pop TV in February this year, focuses on the work and life of several female public relations companies in a top public relations company in London. Their clients are all former glamorous celebrities such as stars, talk show actors and best-selling authors, but no one knows how public relations cleaned up their mess behind the camera and helped them through one crisis after another that may end their careers.

Robin (anna paquin), the heroine, is such a "fireman" who is on standby for 24 hours. Every time she receives a call from a customer for help, she has to rush to the scene at the first time to calm the customer’s mood, discuss strategies, mobilize personnel and contact the media, so as to settle everything in the shortest time. In the first episode, chef Henderson, who has always been shown as a good husband and father, was exposed to the erotic news. Once things get too big, he will not only lose his income of 20 million pounds a year, but also puncture the fantasy of all British housewives-because almost every British housewife has a cookbook on her shelf.

Robin’s idea is to divert the media’s attention. "If you want the media to let go of this bone, you must give them better materials." Robin told Henderson that the sympathy card is always the most effective. He asked Henderson to arrange a breast cancer screening for his wife and lied to the public that his wife had found a lump in her breast. In front of the camera, they are a loving couple; After the camera, in order to persuade his wife to cooperate with the performance, Robin promised to give her a cookbook of her own within one year and arranged for her to attend a variety show of dance.

Good public relations can not only solve the crisis, but also create a topic. In the last episode, a Premier League player who is nearing the end of his sports career turned to Robin for help. He was on the verge of bankruptcy due to excessive spending and investment failure, and wanted to make a good profit before retiring. Robin once again contributed her genius. She made the straight male player pretend to be gay and come out publicly. As the "first Premier League player to come out publicly", he will be invited to various variety shows, and commercial endorsements will follow, and he will soon earn a lot of money. Ironically, at the same time, his star friend is holding a wedding, and he is in love with the marriage partner. This century wedding is also organized by Robin, and the wonderful fate of the two clients is ridiculous.

Public relations stills

As a group of "professional liars", public relations people have long been invulnerable. They should be the most thorough cynics in the contemporary era, and nothing will make them experience inner moral struggle again-except in rare cases. Robin’s two "conscience discoveries" in the play are impressive.

Once, a 17-year-old black girl named Sammo, a child prodigy of classical music, had her contract with the record company expired. She and her "Tiger Mother manager" were unwilling to fade out of the entertainment circle and wanted to take this opportunity to transform into a rebellious pop music talented woman. Robin and her colleagues came up with the idea of "scandal marketing". They arranged for Summer to shoot a sex video with a little movie star, and pretended that the cloud disk was hacked and leaked the video. Afterwards, she can issue a statement denouncing the video disseminators for invading privacy, winning the sympathy of female fans, and at the same time showing her mature and sexy side, getting rid of the image limitation of child stars and successfully transforming.

Everything was planned perfectly, but when it came to the shooting scene, Summer got stage fright. She was still a virgin who had never had sexual experience. She was auditioned everywhere by her eager mother, and she had no childhood, and she didn’t have the normal social life that a girl should have. When all the staff were in place, Summer was hiding in the toilet alone, and her mother kept threatening her. Robin finally couldn’t stand it. She decided to find a body double for Summer and told her that no one could force her to do it as long as she felt uncomfortable.

If only Robin stopped in time to avoid injury, then in the penultimate episode, Robin took the initiative to report her client to the police. In this episode, Robin accompanied his client, veteran movie star Calvin, on a business trip to new york. Before the plane took off, Calvin found that there were two messages from the police in his mobile phone, and he was forced to turn it off before he could check the contents. Calvin thus thought that not long ago, the maid at home broke his computer and sent it to be repaired privately. There were many nude photos of children in the computer (he was a pedophile himself), and the police called. He must have been reported by the technician in charge of computer maintenance.

It was a nightmare flight for Robin. Worst case, by the time they got off the plane, the news that Calvin was a pedophile had spread all over the world, and reporters were already stuck at the airport arrival, waiting for their response. Robin used his quick wits to come up with a solution for Calvin: pretend that these photos are his homework for his pedophile role in the new movie. She even found a screenwriter temporarily and began to tailor the play about pedophilia for him.

When everything was arranged, the plane landed. Calvin found that the reason why the police called him was not that he found those photos, but that his brother had an accident. After the robbery, he immediately freed himself from his remorse and began to plan a "hooking up trip" in new york. Calvin’s face disgusted Robin. She called the familiar police to report him and warned them that the phone call never happened.

Not long after, the news of Calvin’s arrest appeared on TV, and Robin tentatively asked her boss what to do. The boss told her that the company had announced the termination of Calvin’s contract and claimed that he knew nothing about it. Although it is common for people in this industry to be pushed over by have it both ways, the professional ethics is still unavoidable: under what circumstances will public relations choose to abandon customers, or even take the initiative to report customers and help customers who break the law cover up their crimes, and will public relations bear joint responsibility? If the lawyer who defends the criminal is to maintain the justice of the judicial process, what about the public relations who whitewashes the criminal?

Public relations seems to be a profession with "original sin". This drama does not whitewash this part. At the same time, it also gives the characters the ability to reflect, and retains their conscience and empathy that are not completely alienated by the profession. But back to reality, instead of imposing moral condemnation on the public relations industry, it is better to reflect on whether our social function has been completely corroded by business logic.

China Mobile’s tariff downgrade is difficult to re-investigate: 8 yuan’s number-guaranteed package is accused of setting restrictions at different levels, and it will not be handled without complaint.

On July 8th, The Paper reported that "tariff escalation is easier than downgrade? China Mobile: Downshifting is more complicated and needs to be handled by a special person. It was posted in Weibo Hot Search, which aroused widespread concern. After the report, many consumers reported to https://tousu.thepaper.cn that apart from the difficulty in lowering the tariff, China Mobile also had problems such as the restrictions on the "number-guaranteed" package in 8 yuan, no complaints and no handling.

Affected by this, the e-commerce platform’s business of handling 8 yuan’s "guarantee number" package is very popular. Searching on Taobao, it was found that these shops only need consumers to provide their mobile phone numbers and answer calls, and they can be successfully handled on the same day. Some shops show that the sales volume has reached 100,000+.

The reporter from The Paper called 10086, and the relevant personnel said that at present, the "guaranteed number" package in 8 yuan can be handled normally, but it needs to be handled by a special person within 48 hours after registration.

8 yuan’s "Bao Hao" package is accused of setting restrictions at different levels

8 yuan Package is the lowest price package of China Mobile’s 4G flying enjoyment series. The monthly rent only needs 8 yuan, and you can choose 30 minutes of domestic calls or traffic, which is also dubbed by users as "guaranteed number" package.

In 2018, the package was once removed from the shelves of China Mobile. Later, in the face-to-face exchange activities between 10 netizens and three major telecom operators invited by the Eighth Inspector Group of the State Council, China Mobile indicated that it would re-launch the 8 yuan package and increase its efforts to promote the low-threshold package.

At present, there is no 8 yuan package stall in the packages recommended by China Mobile APP, and users can only handle it through 10086 telephone or offline business hall.

In addition to the "hidden" in the recommended package of APP, a large number of users said that they encountered various restrictions when handling this "guarantee number" package in 8 yuan, and they could only handle it successfully after complaining.

Mr. Chen, from Guangxi, told The Paper that at the end of 2023, because his work place was moved to Guangdong, he called China Mobile’s 10086 customer service, hoping to replace the original monthly rental package of more than 70 yuan with a 4G flying card in 8 yuan. "At that time, the human customer service told me that there was no such package in 8 yuan now, so there was no way to handle it. Then he began to sell me other packages. I said that my appeal was to keep this number with the lowest package. He said that he did not have the authority to handle it and asked me to wait for someone to call back. "

After searching online, Mr. Chen found that many people had already applied for 8 yuan package, so he tried to search on Taobao and idle fish, and found that there were actually many "China Mobile 8 yuan package agency services". "I went to the agency with the mentality of giving it a try, and the agency fee was 5.9 yuan. They asked me for a mobile phone number and verification code, saying that it would be ready in 1-2 days."

Mr. Chen successfully changed the 8 yuan package through "Taobao agent"

What Mr. Chen didn’t expect was that the next day he received a phone call from 10086 customer service and asked if he had requested to change the package. "After he verified it, he sent me a package confirmation message, and I replied to the number and it was successful."

"In other words, this package is available, but the normal channel is not for users." Mr. Chen said angrily that afterwards, he learned through other channels that the Taobao agent submitted the complaint work order through the official complaint channel. "This way of handling is not to make trouble or deal with it."

Xiao Xie, a Guangdong user, has also encountered a similar situation. He told The Paper that at the beginning of this year, he planned to change the package in 39 yuan to a 4G flying card in 8 yuan. After calling 10086, I was told that "8 yuan Package has been closed".

"At first, the customer service said that my package is a contract package. If I don’t cancel it, I will limit the 8 yuan package, and I will apply to cancel this contract. As a result, after I canceled, the customer service said that the 8 yuan package had been closed, saying that the lowest one at present is my 39 yuan package. " Xiao Xie said that he was very angry at that time and asked to register a complaint.

Xiao Xie said that on the second day of the complaint, he was contacted by 10086 customer service, saying that he could handle the 8 yuan package, but he needed to go to the offline business hall. "I said at the time that I would escalate the complaint. If I can’t solve it, I will complain to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology." Xiao Xie said that the other party sent him a short message immediately, and he successfully applied for a 4G flying card in 8 yuan.

Taobao agency sales exceed 100 thousand

The Paper noticed that many users on social platforms have shared the "Raiders" for handling the 8 yuan package. Some users said that when handling the 8 yuan package, they were told that the packages below 20 yuan were only available to the elderly over 60 years old; Some users said that they were required to go to the offline business hall to handle the 8 yuan package, and were told to go to the special counter after getting the number in the business hall.

Under the "Raiders" of sharing 8 yuan packages, many consumers commented that "I don’t know that mobile has a package in 8 yuan" and "customer service has never introduced such a cheap package" …

The Paper reporters searched for "Mobile 8 yuan Package Change" through Taobao, and many links titled "No change of number, change of package" appeared. Some shops showed that they had sold 100,000+.

The reporter consulted a shop as a consumer. According to the customer service, the change fee for the 8 yuan number package in Guangdong is 8.4 yuan. You only need to provide the verification code and answer a return call to confirm the change of this machine, and you can handle it within one day, and promise a full refund if it is unsuccessful.

For the handling method, the other party called it "regular", but did not disclose the specific change method.

Taobao agent said that it was successful in one day without going to the offline business hall.

In the product review area, The Paper reporter found that many users shared that the package change was successful. Some users said, "If you apply to change the (8 yuan) package, you are told that you can’t change it within the contract period, or you will have to pay liquidated damages. The store that I was looking for with a try attitude did not expect to be really successful. First, I helped me cancel the contract and then changed the 8 yuan package. "

Some users commented that they wanted to change the 8 yuan package. "10086 and the mobile business hall shirked their responsibilities, and the customer service of this store repeatedly complained to me for three times. Finally, the pressure was put on the account manager who docked locally, and the account manager came to help me handle the list."

According to the sharing of users in the comment area, the agency is mainly solved through complaints. The screenshot in the comment area shows that the agent customer service will guide the user to answer the phone, and there is an agent customer service to let the user "be tough". "Just say that your friends have changed, let him not fool you …"

Taobao agent guides users to call back.

Why does 8 yuan’s "guarantee number" package have to be successfully handled through complaints? On July 8th, the reporter from The Paper called 10086, and the customer service staff said that at present, the 4G flying card in 8 yuan can be handled normally, but it needs to be handled by a special person within 48 hours after registration. As for whether it is necessary to go to the offline business hall, he said that he needs to look at the user’s personal account and may ask to go to the offline business hall.

Can users handle it through China Mobile APP? The customer service staff said that the business handled on China Mobile APP "can only go up but not down", so they had to wait for someone to call back.

Breaking away from "fifty cents special effect" (I): 2015, the first year of visual effect of Chinese films.

    1905 movie network exclusive feature In the past, when we talked about film special effects, we all took Hollywood as the benchmark. When it comes to domestic movies, more people like to use "fifty cents special effects" to ridicule. However, in 2015, we found that Chinese visual effects blockbusters broke out collectively, and those high-tech companies that made special effects for Hollywood, South Korea and Singapore teams with high cost performance, etc., also became the heroes behind these films.

 

    In 2015, the achievements made in the visual effects of Chinese films are obvious to all. Compared with the previous films, which may have at most one or two masterpieces every year, and most of them are produced by Hong Kong and Taiwan teams, this year’s mainland films are striding towards industrialization in a collective way. In this year, every important schedule has visual effect blockbusters to stir up the beams: Spring Festival files include Zhong Kui’s Enchanting: Snow Demon Spirit and Wolf Totem; In the summer file, "The Taoist Down the Mountain" became the highest-grossing movie in Chen Kaige, while "monster hunt" became the box office champion of the whole mainland film history. Although the story of "Nine-story Demon Tower" at the end of September is irrelevant, the monster effect can be seen as a bloody one; One of "Unbelievable" and "Looking for Dragons" in the Lunar New Year file was fully taken over by the Hollywood team Pixomondo, and the other was evaluated as "the benchmark of Chinese film industry" created by the outstanding aircraft carrier in the later period of the mainland.

 

    From quantitative change to qualitative change, the rise of Chinese special effects movies this year is indispensable for years of efforts and attempts. This has a lot to do with the increase in the introduction of imported films. Since 2012, the number of mainland sub-accounts has increased from 20 to 34. The condition for quota increase is that it must be a 3D or IMAX movie. These Hollywood blockbusters are obvious to mainland audiences, and they are a silent challenge to the level of special effects of domestic films.

 

    Feng Tang has a famous "golden thread theory". He said: "Literature does have a golden thread. When a work is achieved, it is achieved. If it is not achieved, it is not achieved. For outsiders, it is looming. For discerning people, it is like watching a fire." This view is actually put in the film circle, but it is more applicable: the golden thread of film special effects, whether it is achieved or not, even ordinary viewers are ignorant, otherwise there would not be so many sarcastic words about "fifty cents special effects" before. Outside Hollywood, there are "wolves like tigers", and inside there are audiences with bright eyes, and the special effects of Chinese movies are also growing gradually in this dual force. Even in the face of Hollywood high-investment special effects blockbusters such as Jurassic World and The Avengers: Ultron Era this year, the industrial system of Chinese-language films can still stand up straight.

 

    However, in this industrial system, the special effects industry has already crossed the language barrier, and international teams are nothing new. In addition to the brilliance of the mainland, Pixomondo, which was founded in Germany, Base FX, which has a deep relationship with industrial light and magic, Dexter in South Korea and VHQ in Singapore, have all contributed to Chinese films, making the industrial customs in 2015 so beautiful.

 

China "Core" of World Technology: Special Effects Companies Coming to China in succession.

 

    The prosperity of the mainland film market has not only given birth to the development of domestic special effects teams: Tiangong Yicai, which was reorganized in 2013, has become one of the largest post-production companies in China, and their participation can be seen in flying swords of dragon gate, Painted Skin 2 and The Dragon Hunt just released; Overseas special effects companies are also pouring in. German special effects company Pixomondo opened its China branch as early as 2009, and Korean company Dexter’s branch in China is also growing. As a Singaporean company, VHQ has also begun to lay its territory in China, and will take over the post-production of Three-body.

    Facing the cooperation with China films, these international companies have rich experience and will face brand-new challenges. They should not only embrace the China market with the existing technology, but also constantly work with China film producers: conceptual design and production budget, which brings the perfection of the process in the whole industry, and also makes many directors with little experience in special effects films know how to control their own ideas and the actual operation of the film. To this end, 1905 Film Network interviewed Jan Heinze, chief operating officer and executive producer of Pixomondo, Daniel Jeannette, special effects director, Thomas Lautenbach, conceptual designer Huang Canzhou, special effects technician Li Da and Guo Yiran, special effects director of VHQ. From their mouths, we know that the special effects industry of China movies is still a vast field worth expanding.
