Four, the key issues of concern in the operation

(1) About the profitability

During the reporting period, the Group achieved operating income of 14.866 billion yuan, mainly due to the decline in net interest margin. The revenue decreased year-on-year, but the decline was narrower than that in the first quarter, achieving a net profit of 7.121 billion yuan, an increase of 624 million yuan and a year-on-year growth rate of 9.61%.

In the first half of the year, the Group adhered to high-quality development as the core, and maintained a good momentum of "three stabilities" in business development. First, the business scale grew steadily. The Group’s assets exceeded 1.4 trillion yuan, an increase of 86.49 billion yuan or 6.40% compared with the end of last year. The loan scale exceeded 670 billion yuan, an increase of 41.059 billion yuan or 6.49% compared with the end of last year. The scale of deposits exceeded 900 billion yuan, an increase of 77.535 billion yuan compared with the end of last year, with a growth rate of 9.40%, and the increment reached a new high. Second, the business structure is "stable and good". The proportion of loans and deposits continued to increase. Loans accounted for 46.84% of total assets, up 0.04 percentage points from the end of last year, and deposits accounted for 68.44% of total liabilities, up 1.74 percentage points from the end of last year. Third, non-interest income "steadily increased". The Group achieved non-interest income of RMB2.822 billion, up RMB283 million year-on-year, with an increase rate of 11.16%, of which financial investment gains and valuation changes increased RMB216 million year-on-year, with an increase rate of 16.76%, mainly due to the Group’s strengthening of interest rate trend judgment, grasping market opportunities, flexibly adjusting trading strategies, strengthening band operation and increasing asset returns.

Looking forward to the second half of the year, the Group will focus on consolidating its customer base and scale advantages, actively seize major strategic development opportunities, continue to promote the process of digital transformation, improve the sinking ability and efficiency of financial services, highlight its own characteristics, build its core advantages and stabilize its performance growth.

First, tap the source of "increment", focusing on tapping the market space of major strategies, rural revitalization, small and micro private enterprises and consumer credit, while strengthening the marketing of scene services, continuously expanding the scale of high-quality assets and liabilities, and stabilizing the leading edge in the deposit and loan market. Second, grasp the key of "increasing income", increase the proportion of deposits and loans, further strengthen pricing management, and enhance the comprehensive return of customers. Improve the service ability of traditional intermediary business, improve the customer product system, optimize the investment layout and trading strategy, and drive the steady growth of non-interest income. Third, lay a solid foundation for "efficiency improvement", strengthen the refined management of financial resources, improve the evaluation mechanism of resource utilization efficiency, increase the inclination of resources in terms of comprehensive contribution to customers and management efficiency improvement, give full play to the leverage of financial resources, and realize the digitalization and intelligence of the whole life cycle of marketing, customer management, pricing management and post-loan management, so as to empower the development of front-line businesses. The fourth is to emphasize the core of "increasing profits", build a management system for non-performing assets, and insist on asking for benefits from non-performing assets. Strengthen the forward-looking asset quality monitoring and control, continuously increase the potential risk assessment, and constantly consolidate the asset quality.

(B) About the net interest margin

Affected by the repricing of floating interest rate loans and the downward trend of market interest rates, the asset-side yield continued to be under pressure. First, the competition for asset placement has intensified, and the superimposed and stable economic policies have continued to exert their strength, driving down the yield of various loans. Second, the real estate market continues to be sluggish, and the superimposed residents’ willingness to consume is weak, and the growth of housing mortgage loans and consumer loans with relatively high returns has slowed down. Third, the market interest rate fluctuated at a low level, and the income level of capital business also declined.

Looking forward to the second half of the year, the Group will continue to optimize the asset-liability structure, strengthen interest rate pricing management, enhance the advantages of core liabilities such as deposits, and strive to stabilize the net interest margin at a reasonable level. On the asset side, relying on multi-scenarios and multi-channels to accurately reach customers, emphasizing the use of featured products, grasping the opportunity of expanding domestic demand to promote consumption, increasing credit supply and stabilizing loan income. At the same time, strengthen the forward-looking judgment of market interest rate, seize market opportunities, enrich trading strategies, do a good job of "product structure and term structure" and stabilize the investment income of financial assets. On the debt side, we should focus on the growth of low-cost core deposits, seize the opportunity of market-oriented adjustment of deposit interest rates, strengthen the control of the volume and price of high-interest deposits, and guide the downward trend of deposit interest-bearing costs. At the same time, combined with the needs of business development, we will expand diversified liabilities and actively use the central bank’s monetary policy tools to keep the debt cost stable and declining.

In 2018, the Customs will fully implement the spirit of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, conscientiously implement the arrangements of the Central Economic Work Conference, take Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era as the guide, adhere to the general tone of striving for progress while maintaining stability, adhere to the new development concept, closely follow the major contradictions and changes in China’s society, solidly promote customs reforms to take root according to the requirements of high-quality development, and make every effort to promote the steady growth of foreign trade and better serve the overall situation of national economic and social development.

Now I’d like to answer your questions.

【 Attacking on the Beautiful Spring 】Thanks to Mr. Huang Songping for his introduction. In order to help you better understand the situation, we have arranged simultaneous interpretation today to help foreign journalists and friends understand the whole situation.

Please ask questions below, and please inform the news organizations you represent before asking questions according to the usual practice.

[CCTV reporter]Hello, Director Huang, my question is, how do you evaluate the overall development of China’s foreign trade in 2017? We know that China’s foreign trade experienced a double-digit growth in 2017, which was a year-on-year decline for two consecutive years. For this change, some people think that this is only a staged rebound. What do you think of this? Please give us a detailed introduction. Thank you.

[Huang Songping]Thank you for your question. In 2017, the world economy recovered moderately, the domestic economy improved steadily, the "One Belt, One Road" initiative progressed steadily, and the effect of the policy of steady growth of foreign trade appeared, which jointly promoted the two-year negative growth of China’s foreign trade import and export and achieved double-digit recovery growth. Foreign trade has maintained a stable and good development trend. Specifically, there are the following reasons:

First, the world economy has recovered moderately and external demand has picked up. In 2017, the world economy recovered better than expected, and the international market demand picked up. According to the statistics of the World Trade Organization, the total export value of goods trade in 70 major economies in the world increased by more than 9% in the first three quarters of last year, and the trade growth trend was obvious.

Second, the domestic economy is stable and improving, laying the foundation for import growth. In 2017, with the deepening of supply-side structural reform, the domestic economy maintained a steady and positive development trend, and the improvement of real economy operation led to an increase in China’s import demand. At the same time, China has also implemented a series of policies and measures to expand imports, including reducing import tariffs on some consumer goods. Policies and measures such as improving fiscal and taxation policies to expand imports, encouraging the import of advanced technology and equipment and key parts, and improving the level of trade facilitation have had a positive impact on expanding imports.

Third, commodity prices rose year-on-year, driving the rapid growth of import value. In 2017, the overall commodity prices in the international market showed a year-on-year upward trend, driving China’s import price index to rise to 109.4, and the contribution rate of prices to import growth was 52.6%. At the same time, the impact of rising prices of imported raw materials is transmitted to the export of manufactured goods. In 2017, China’s export price index was 103.9, and the contribution rate of prices to export growth was 37.3%.

Fourth, the "Belt and Road Initiative" has been steadily advanced, and emerging markets have been vigorously explored. In 2017, China’s import and export with countries along the Belt and Road increased by 17.8%, which was 3.6 percentage points higher than China’s import and export growth rate. During the same period, China’s import and export with Latin American countries increased by 22%, while that with African countries increased by 17.3%, which was effective in opening up emerging markets. At the same time, the effects of a series of national policies and measures to promote the steady growth of foreign trade continue to show, the reform in streamline administration, delegate power, strengthen regulation and improve services is gradually deepening, the domestic business environment is constantly improving, the burden reduction and assistance have achieved practical results, the innovation ability of enterprises has been enhanced, and the endogenous motivation of foreign trade development has been enhanced, which is also an important reason for the foreign trade to continue to stabilize and improve in 2017.

In addition, in 2015 and 2016, China’s foreign trade import and export experienced negative growth for two consecutive years, and the low base also raised the growth rate in 2017 to some extent. Thank you.

[Reporter of China Radio International]Excuse me, Director Huang, we especially want to know about the trade development between China and countries along the Belt and Road in 2017. In addition, what other measures does our customs have to promote the new pattern of all-round opening up? Thank you.

[Huang Songping]Thank you for your question. According to customs statistics, in 2017, China imported and exported 7.37 trillion yuan to countries along the Belt and Road, up 17.8% year-on-year, 3.6 percentage points higher than China’s overall foreign trade growth rate, accounting for 26.5% of China’s total foreign trade value, including 4.3 trillion yuan in exports, up 12.1%, and 3.07 trillion yuan in imports, up 26.8%. The Belt and Road Initiative conforms to the requirements of the times and the desire of countries to accelerate development. Countries along the Belt and Road jointly build the Belt and Road and share the achievements of the Five Links. We believe that trade with countries along the Belt and Road will continue to be the highlight and growth point of China’s foreign trade.

In the next step, the customs will improve the ability and level of the new pattern of comprehensive opening of services. Specifically, we will comprehensively deepen the cooperation in customs clearance among countries along the Belt and Road and actively promote the AEO mutual recognition among countries along the route; Continue to optimize customs supervision services, promote customs clearance procedures to simplify, and effectively improve the level of trade facilitation; Promote the transformation and upgrading of foreign trade, accelerate the cultivation of new kinetic energy for foreign trade development, support the development of new trade formats, support the success of China International Import Expo, actively participate in the formulation of international trade rules, make every effort to run the World Customs Cross-border E-commerce Conference, and strive to make greater contributions to the development of an open economy. Thank you.

[Hong Kong China Rating Society reporter]I’d like to ask Director Huang to introduce the import and export trade between the mainland and Taiwan Province in 2017, and also ask you to help us predict the trend of cross-strait trade in 2018. Thank you.

[Huang Songping]Thank you for your question. According to customs statistics, the total value of cross-strait bilateral trade in 2017 was 1.35 trillion yuan, up 14% year-on-year, accounting for 4.9% of the total foreign trade value of the mainland in that year. Taiwan Province is the seventh largest trading partner of the mainland, of which the mainland exported 297.9 billion yuan to Taiwan, up 12.2%, and imported 1.05 trillion yuan, up 14.5%. The trade deficit was 753.4 billion yuan, up 15.4%.

Peaceful and stable cross-strait relations are of great significance to the development of cross-strait trade, and we hope that cross-strait trade will develop better. Regarding the trend of cross-strait trade, I believe that as long as we eliminate the adverse effects and deepen cross-strait cooperation, cross-strait trade will develop in a healthy direction in 2018.

[International News Agency reporter]The overall situation of China’s foreign trade this year is relatively good, and there are still some uncertain and unstable factors in the field of international economy and trade. Can you tell us what these unstable and uncertain factors are? Can we make a prospect for this year’s trade export around the expansion of RMB fluctuation and some trade frictions between China and the United States? Thank you.

[Huang Songping]Let’s answer the question about the exchange rate first. As for the RMB exchange rate, we always think that it has an impact on foreign trade import and export, but the impact is limited. First, the exchange rate change is a double-edged sword for import and export. When the RMB depreciates, it will theoretically benefit the export of enterprises, but it will also increase the import cost of enterprises accordingly. Second, under the background of global value chain, due to the cross-regional upstream and downstream division of labor and intra-industry trade, the currency change of one economy and its impact on import and export will be quickly transmitted to other intra-chain economies, and then the impact on a single economy will be dispersed.

In the context of the recovery of the world economy and the uncertainty of the normalization of monetary policies in major economies, keeping the RMB exchange rate basically stable at a reasonable and balanced level is conducive to stabilizing the exchange rate expectations of enterprises and promoting the steady development of foreign trade. Therefore, relevant departments in China have been actively strengthening the RMB settlement in cross-border trade and investment fields to help enterprises enhance their ability to cope with exchange rate risks.

Regarding the unstable and uncertain factors, we look at it this way. From the situation just introduced, there are many favorable conditions for China’s foreign trade development in 2018, but we should also see that the growth factors that restrict foreign trade development still exist. First, the international environment is complicated, and deep-seated and structural contradictions are still prominent in the world, which may have an impact on global economic recovery and financial market stability, and the road to world trade recovery will still be tortuous. Second, the global manufacturing competition has become more intense. On the one hand, some emerging market countries rely on low-cost advantages such as labor and land to promote the development of low-end manufacturing industries and compete with China’s traditional superior products. On the other hand, developed economies have implemented the policy of "economic rebalancing and re-industrialization" to promote the return of some high-end manufacturing industries. The global competition of manufacturing industry will be more intense. Third, global trade protectionism is still heating up. At present, the cases and amount of trade remedy investigations on products in China are still at a high level in recent years.

With regard to Sino-US trade, the United States is China’s second largest trading partner. According to customs statistics, the total value of Sino-US trade in 2017 was 3.95 trillion yuan, up 15.2% year-on-year, accounting for 14.2% of China’s total import and export value, of which exports to the United States were 2.91 trillion yuan, up 14.5%, imports from the United States were 1.04 trillion yuan, up 17.3%, and the trade surplus with the United States was 1.87 trillion yuan, expanding. In 2017, Sino-US trade achieved rapid growth. As the world’s top two economies, we hope that China and the United States will continue to deepen economic and trade cooperation, achieve mutual benefit and win-win results, and jointly promote global economic prosperity. Thank you.

[China News Service reporter]May I ask whether the quality and efficiency of China’s foreign trade have been improved while it is growing rapidly in 2017? In addition, what are your expectations for China’s foreign trade situation in 2018? Thank you.

[Huang Songping]Thank you for your question. In 2017, China’s foreign trade import and export achieved a rapid growth of 14.2%, and the quality and efficiency of foreign trade development were further improved.

First, the ability of independent development has been enhanced. The import and export of general trade with long domestic industrial chain and high added value increased by 16.8%, 2.6 percentage points higher than the overall import and export growth rate, and the proportion increased by 1.3 percentage points year-on-year. Second, trading partners are becoming more diversified. Imports and exports to traditional markets such as Europe, America and Japan increased by 14.8%, while imports and exports to emerging markets such as Latin America and Africa increased by 22% and 17.3% respectively. Third, market players are active. The import and export of all types of enterprises achieved double-digit growth, among which the import and export of private enterprises increased by 15.3%, which contributed the most to the growth of China’s total import and export value, reaching 41.2%, and the endogenous motivation of foreign trade development was enhanced. Fourth, regional development is more coordinated. The import and export of foreign trade in the central and western regions increased by 21%, which was 6.8 percentage points higher than the overall growth rate of national imports and exports, and its proportion in national imports and exports increased by 0.8 percentage points year-on-year. Fifth, product structure optimization. The export of some high value-added mechanical and electrical products and equipment manufacturing products maintained a good growth trend, for example, the export of automobiles increased by 27.2%, computers increased by 16.6%, and medical instruments and instruments increased by 10.3%, indicating that the independent innovation ability of Chinese enterprises has gradually increased and new advantages in international competition have gradually emerged. On the import side, the import of energy resources products grew steadily, such as crude oil, iron ore and natural gas, which increased by 10.1%, 5% and 26.9% respectively. The import of some important equipment and key components of high-quality consumer goods increased rapidly, including integrated circuits, engines and CNC machine tools, which increased by 17.3%, 17.6% and 13.8% respectively.Aquatic products increased by 19.6%. On the whole, in 2017, China’s foreign trade sector firmly promoted the supply-side structural reform, and made positive progress in the transformation mode and restructuring. The import and export are shifting from a high-speed growth stage to a high-quality development stage.

Regarding the foreign trade trend this year, generally speaking, the world economy is expected to continue to recover in 2018, and China’s economy will continue to be stable and positive, which is more favorable for China’s foreign trade import and export. However, due to the uncertainties in the international environment and the large base last year, it is more difficult for foreign trade to maintain double-digit rapid growth. It is expected that China’s foreign trade import and export will continue to grow this year, and the quality and efficiency will be improved. Thank you.

[Australian "Sydney Morning Herald" reporter]China is an important trading partner of Australia. Can you provide us with some data about the trade between China and Australia? The trade between China and Australia on natural gas has made great progress. I wonder what the reasons are? Is the large-scale "coal to gas" in China a factor behind it?

[Huang Songping]Thank you for your question. In 2017, the bonus of China-Australia FTA continued to be released, and bilateral trade between China and Australia grew rapidly. The total value of China’s imports and exports to Australia was 923.41 billion yuan, up 29.1% year-on-year, which was 14.9 percentage points higher than the growth rate of China’s imports and exports in that year, of which exports were 280.56 billion yuan, up 13.9%; Imports reached 642.85 billion yuan, an increase of 37.2%. The trade deficit was 362.29 billion yuan, an increase of 63%. As Australia’s largest export market, China accounts for more than 30% of Australia’s exports. We hope that the economic and trade cooperation between China and Australia will continue to develop healthily.

Regarding the figures of natural gas imports, I don’t have the data brought from Australia here. Last year, our natural gas imports increased, and Australia is an important source, which is due to the factors of increasing domestic demand, strengthening environmental protection, "changing coal to gas" and so on. Thank you.

[German World News reporter]The question I want to ask you is, why is China importing so much crude oil and iron ore now? Considering the domestic economic situation in China, is the amount of these imports helpful for improving the quality and efficiency of China’s economy? At present, the import price has also risen dramatically, exceeding 30%, and we are not particularly able to understand the phenomenon behind it. In addition, is the reliability of these data published by the General Administration of Customs particularly high? Because we now see many reports questioning the data released by some provinces in China, such as Liaoning and Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Previously, there were problems related to data with many other countries, because other countries said that their understanding of the trade deficit was far greater than the data published by the General Administration of Customs of China.

[Huang Songping]Thank you for your question. Why does China import a lot of iron ore, crude oil and other commodities? Because China is a big manufacturing country, it needs a lot of raw materials and energy products for production. In 2017, China’s economy is stable and the domestic demand is relatively strong, which promotes the increase of commodity imports. The rise in international market prices, on the one hand, is the global economic recovery, and the increase in demand drives the price increase, on the other hand, many commodities have certain financial attributes, and so on. There are many reasons for the rise in commodity prices. This is my answer to your first question.

Second, the accuracy of the figures of China Customs. In 2017, China’s foreign trade achieved double-digit growth, ending the negative growth trend for two consecutive years, which was mainly due to the positive factors such as the moderate recovery of the global economy, the recovery of market demand, the rebound of commodity prices, and the policy effect of steady growth of foreign trade, as well as the relatively low base, which provided conditions for the expansion of growth. Judging from the situation of inbound and outbound containers, in 2017, the customs supervised 109 million containers, up 5.9%, and supervised 680 million tons of cargo, up 6.1%, which also confirmed the trend of China’s foreign trade stabilizing in 2017. I would like to make a brief response to your concern about the accuracy of customs statistics. Customs import and export goods trade statistics is an important part of national macroeconomic statistics. We have always attached great importance to statistical quality work and regarded the truth and accuracy of data as the highest pursuit of statistical work. Based on the data such as import and export goods declaration forms, according to international statistical rules and standards, we include the goods that actually enter or leave the country and cause the increase or decrease of domestic material stock in the import and export statistics of goods trade, and use data analysis means to screen abnormal data and conduct statistical verification on enterprises whose data information is declared doubtful. At the end of 2016, 27 departments, including the National Development and Reform Commission, the People’s Bank of China, and the National Bureau of Statistics, jointly signed the Memorandum of Cooperation on Joint Punishment of Enterprises with Serious Dishonesty in the Statistical Data Field and Relevant Personnel.Joint punishment shall be imposed on enterprises that falsify import and export information to the customs, resulting in distortion of statistical data, so as to maintain the authenticity of statistical data.

Just now you mentioned that China’s foreign trade statistics are not consistent with those of some other countries. Now most countries in the world have adopted the statistical system recommended by the United Nations Statistics Bureau, and so has China Customs. Therefore, in terms of statistical rules, China Customs has adopted the international statistical system. As for the reasons for the inconsistency, for example, the exports of various countries are generally calculated at FOB prices, and the imports are generally calculated at CIF prices, which is different. There is also the problem of re-export. For example, China’s goods are re-exported through the Netherlands. According to statistics in China, the export destination is the Netherlands, but the Netherlands is re-exported to a third country, so the statistics of China are different from those of a third country. In addition, there are differences in exchange rate conversion, statistical time and so on. These are the factors that cause the inconsistency of bilateral trade statistics.

On May 28, 2017, the Regulations on the Implementation of the Statistics Law of the People’s Republic of China was promulgated, and we will continue to strengthen statistical work according to laws and regulations to ensure the authenticity and accuracy of import and export data. Thank you.

[Reporter of Japan Broadcasting Association]Regarding the trade relationship between China and North Korea, can you tell us something about the trade between China and North Korea in 2017?

[Huang Songping]Thank you for your question. Let me first inform you of the latest data on China-DPRK trade. According to customs statistics, in dollar terms, the total value of China’s imports and exports to North Korea in 2017 was US$ 5.06 billion, down 10.5% year-on-year, of which exports were US$ 3.34 billion, up 8.3%, imports were US$ 1.72 billion, down 33%, and the trade surplus was US$ 1.62 billion, up 2.2 times. In December, the import and export to the DPRK was US$ 310 million, down by 50.6%, of which exports were US$ 260 million, down by 23.4%, and imports were US$ 54.342 million, down by 81.6%. Thank you.

"National Tide" Surges the Year of China.

This Spring Festival, many young people have incorporated their love and understanding of China’s traditional culture into new ideas, new designs and new means to help the "national style" and "national tide" go global.

During the Spring Festival, it is a ritual feeling for many people to buy a new suit to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. In the "flower markets" in the streets of Guangdong, Fujian and other places, horse-faced skirts and colorful flowers set off each other, becoming a beautiful scenery of the Year of the Loong in the Spring Festival.

Horse-faced skirts originated in the Song Dynasty are one of the main dresses of ancient women in China. Lin Qi, a fashion designer, has a collection of nearly 100 horse-faced skirts, many of which have exquisite dragon embroidery. On the basis of traditional styles and crafts, new elements and new designs are constantly incorporated. In 2023, she brought her horse-faced skirt design works to Paris Fashion Week to show the unique oriental aesthetic charm to the whole world.

Dragon is the totem of the Chinese nation. This traditional cultural element with China characteristics has been increasingly integrated into modern life through new designs and new expressions.

The traditional culture is also passed down by design, as well as this group of "post-00" national wind lovers. In order to welcome the arrival of the Year of the Loong, they restored the "Aoshan Lamp Shed" where people celebrated the Spring Festival in the Song Dynasty in xixi national wetland park Park, and filmed short plays to show the world the traditional Chinese artistic aesthetics.

No doubt! This year’s National Day file is the most neglected good movie!


Special feature of 1905 film network "The film arrangement is too low". After the animated film was released, many netizens expressed such feelings. 


Abominable, the first original animated film of Oriental DreamWorks, was jointly created by Oriental DreamWorks and American DreamWorks Animation.


Under the upsurge of three major gift films sweeping the National Day archives, the topics and popularity of the films are slightly insufficient. As of October 5, the film’s five-day box office reached more than 70 million, which was not as good as expected.


Despite the poor box office, the word-of-mouth achievements of Cat’s Eye 9.4, Taobao Film 9.1 and Douban 7.4 are quite eye-catching, and the performance of overseas markets is in sharp contrast with that of China. After landing in North America on September 27th, the film won the first weekend box office title in North America. The freshness of rotten tomatoes is 80%, and the popcorn index is 96%. These data are enough to show the quality and level of this Chinese-foreign co-production animation.


Is Abominable the most underrated work in this year’s National Day archives? In addition to box office and word of mouth, the Chinese-foreign co-production mode it presents and its influence on the local animation film industry in China are actually the most important aspects to be discussed.


Chinese and foreign co-produced animated films are not popular?


 In 2016, "Kung Fu Panda 3" created a box office of 1 billion in mainland China, occupying the top spot in China animated film box office for three years, and it was not until this summer that it was won by "Nezha".


The emergence of Kung Fu Panda 3 has led to the rise of Chinese and foreign co-production animation, with a large number, but the box office and quality have been "sluggish". Among the top ten Chinese and foreign co-produced animated films at the box office, only three have exceeded 100 million.


Although Kung Fu Panda 3′ s billion-dollar scale far exceeds other rivals, its success largely depends on the accumulation of IP fans of the previous two series.


Looking at the evaluation, half of the works on the list are below the passing line on the Douban platform.


Therefore, if we compare these ten co-produced animated films horizontally, the achievements of Abominable are not bad now.


Before "Abominable", this year’s co-production animation was also released. The film was originally scheduled to be released last year and was postponed until July this year. Another co-production animation has also changed its schedule four times, and now it has been postponed to October 13th.


It can be inferred from the achievements of Future Machine City that the finished product of Ugly Doll, which was also co-produced by Alibaba Pictures, is not expected to be very satisfactory.


The douban scores of "Future Machine City" and "Ugly Doll" are also below 6.

 

What’s the problem?

 

China only invested capital and did not participate in the production; The Chinese team’s participation in content creation is very shallow; Inaccurate audience positioning; The story is routine and younger; Problems in the cooperation mechanism are the reasons why these co-produced animations have not been favored by the market and the audience.

 

By chasing light animation and Warner Bros. together, it is a more successful co-production animation in recent years.


The light-chasing animation, which has always focused on creating family fun, has been created from China fairy tales after successive encounters and failures of other works.


Warner Bros. put forward targeted opinions on stories, editing, personnel design and commercial selling points during the production process. For example, the role of "puppy" was added to strengthen the comedy elements, and it was especially suggested to design a wonderful bridge of Little Fox Fairy.

The success of "White Snake" benefits from the continuous improvement of Chinese creation in the co-production mechanism. The story is also different from many previous co-production animations. It is not the traditional "general mobilization" adventure family fun, but draws nutrition from China fairy tales and adapts it.


The story of Abominable takes place in present-day China.

 

"Abominable" still chooses the type of family fun, and puts the main story world in the present China, and all the contents should be original.

 

So, how did the animation produced by Fang Dongfang DreamWorks and American DreamWorks create a mutually acceptable China story? In the interview with the main creator, we not only got the answer, but also found that this co-production is closer and deeper than many previous co-produced animated films.


Is there a new atmosphere in the production mode of Abominable?


"Abominable" tells the story of Xiao Yi, a little girl from China, and her friends, A Jun and pengpeng, crossing the motherland for 3,000 kilometers and escorting the snowman "Da Mao" back to his hometown of Mount Everest to reunite with his family.


According to Zhou Peiling, producer and chief creative officer of Oriental DreamWorks, the preparation of the film began in 2012, and the strategic decision-making and specific creation were discussed and decided by both teams.

 

"The whole artistic creation team is basically in Shanghai, and the post-production is mainly in the United States," Zhou Peiling revealed. The only challenge is the time difference. "Today, people here finished and handed it over to people on the other side of the world, so we joked that someone was working on this film for 24 hours, which turned the disadvantage into an advantage."

 

At the same time, Zhou Peiling will also hold regular weekly meetings with American executives and behind-the-scenes personnel to exchange ideas and listen to them, and then complete the production step by step through repeated revisions.

The film mainly expresses the theme of returning to the family. jill culton, the director and screenwriter, said frankly that "China culture emphasizes the importance of family more than American culture". Therefore, along with the main plot of the snowman going home, they also set up the auxiliary line of the relationship between Xiaoyi and his mother and grandmother from estrangement to bridging, trying to make more China audiences feel empathy and substitution.


Co-director jill culton and Todd Vildman

 

In addition to the balanced transmission of values, compared with many previous co-productions of animation, the localization of "Abominable" is indeed more steady and steady.

 

Although the traditional "adventure" narrative mode is adopted like many family animation, the film is integrated with the unique scenery of China, such as Qiandao Lake, Huangshan Mountain, rape field, Leshan Giant Buddha, etc. These magnificent mountains and rivers have not been reduced to simple background boards or postcards, but have become story scenes to promote the effective progress of the film.


"When I started writing the script, I had a map of China in front of me. The story originated in Shanghai and the final destination was in Himalaya. The distance between the two places was 3,000 kilometers, so I was looking for scenic spots in this distance." jill culton told us that due to the length of the film, I originally wanted to put three or four more scenic spots, including Rainbow Beach and Blue Waterfall.


In addition, she and her team also insisted on not letting go of world-famous China monuments such as the Great Wall, "because everyone knows the Great Wall, but not everyone knows Leshan Giant Buddha."


Leshan Giant Buddha is an important scene in Abominable.

 

In order to create a more authentic "China flavor", Oriental DreamWorks provided more input and support in details, including the street environment of Shanghai, the overall appearance of residential buildings, Chinese’s food culture, table manners and so on, from which the Hollywood production team also got a lot of inspiration.

 

As Carlton said, "In the previous version, everyone threw away metal cans on the road, but Oriental DreamWorks told us that there was no such rubbish, so we deleted all these metal cans."


Chinese consultant directorShuhuan

 

The screenwriter Shu Huan is the Chinese consultant director of the film. He joined the team when the film was about 70% completed. On the one hand, his job was to adjust the localization details.


He suggested adding billboards unique to China, such as "cram school for college entrance examination", and adding food landscapes with China characteristics, such as Shaanxi snacks and Shaxian snacks, "to make the whole story more like the present China".


In the role design, both teams have also made great efforts. Co-director Todd Vildman said that in order to make the character of Grandma more authentic, China has given many suggestions.

 

"Grandma is very nagging. Xiaoyi doesn’t want to listen. Will she close the door or keep it in front of her, or how much? How much is this? These are all to be discussed together." Producer Zhou Peiling also mentioned such creative details to us about the display of characters’ psychology and behavior.


Not only in the content production level, the film also launched a Mandarin version for China audiences, with Zifeng Zhang, Chen Feiyu, Cai Ming, Wan Qian, etc. as dubbing, and Shu Huan was also responsible for dubbing and directing. This dubbed version of Mandarin will also land in the North American cinema, which is the first time in the North American film market.

"Many expressions in the English version are American, but the audience in China will know at a glance that this is not Chinese’s way of speaking." Shu Huan revealed that in order to conform to Chinese’s communication style and expression habits, he helped to adjust many Chinese dialogues to make them more grounded. However, it is also a pity that the film did not specifically change the mouth shape of the characters for the Chinese version.


Four voice actors

 

It can be seen that from the upstream to the downstream, from the plot, the theme, the details of the scene, the character design and the dubbing release, Abominable tries to be close to the local reality of China and meet the needs of China audiences.

 

"China audiences know more and more about movies now," said Zhou Peiling. The reason why many Chinese-foreign animated films have failed is that the market positioning is unclear and the stories are mechanically copied. "Maybe it was only aimed at overseas markets at first, and suddenly it was necessary to join the characters and plots related to China in the China market, which is very unnatural and unsmooth."


The key to the success of Chinese and foreign co-productions lies in finding a universal story with cultural value, highlighting the elements of China, bringing forth the new, and achieving a win-win situation in an effective cooperation mechanism.

 

Both director Carlton and director Shu Huan emphasized that Abominable is not a Hollywood story, but a story suitable for the whole world, and that the China market is not the whole story. The film should not only show the beauty of China culture, but also start from China, aim at the global market and finally go to the world.


What does co-production bring to China native animation?


Looking to the future, there are a large number of Chinese and foreign co-produced animated films on the road. Oriental DreamWorks and American DreamWorks Animation will jointly launch the "Oriental Dream Trilogy": "Abominable" is the first one; The second "Running to the Moon" will be completed next summer and is scheduled to be released in autumn. The third part is the Monkey King, which was developed by Stephen Chow, and it is also in the preparatory stage.

 

In addition, the Legend of the Erect Elephant (China, New Zealand), Animal Secret Service (China, France) and Dragon Keeper (China, Spain) will also appear one after another.


Zhou Peiling introduces the Chinese-American co-production animation "Running to the Moon"


"Use our script story, Hollywood production management experience and excellent animation technicians from all over the world". In Shu Huan’s view, such a global production system can be the main creative direction of China animated films in the future. "Let’s work together. After coming out, 80% is not good, 10% is good, but 10% is explosive, so every little makes a mickle."

 

With the increasing number of co-produced animated films, we have reason to believe that the mode of co-production will be deepened, the quality of animation will be more mature, and the continuous accumulation of co-production experience will also benefit the creation and development of local animation in China.


Chinese and foreign co-production animation to be released in the future


Nezha, White Snake: The Origin, etc. are all born out of China’s fairy tale system. At present, adventure family fun is more in line with the mainstream of world animation films, but the quality of this type of animation independently produced by China still needs to be improved.

 

The appearance of "Abominable" is not only a co-production animation in the future, but also provides corresponding reference for the creation of domestic animated family movies.


Zhou Peiling said that the benefits of co-production can help local animation filmmakers in China learn foreign production methods, story content and animation technology, and also help China’s animation industry gradually realize industrialization and scale, and further expand the international market.

 

Looking forward to the future, China native animation can become the earliest and fastest film genre among all films in China, as predicted by Shu Huan.

First, malicious programs

(A) computer malicious program capture

In the first half of 2020, about 18.15 million samples of computer malicious programs were captured, with an average daily spread of more than 4.83 million times, involving about 11,000 families of computer malicious programs. According to the statistics of communication sources, overseas malicious programs mainly come from the United States, Seychelles and Canada, and the specific distribution abroad is shown in Figure 1. Malicious programs located in China mainly come from Zhejiang, Guangdong and Beijing. According to the target IP statistics, there are about 42.08 million IP addresses attacked by computer malicious programs in China, accounting for 12.4% of the total IP addresses in China. These attacked IP addresses are mainly concentrated in Shandong Province, Jiangsu Province, Guangdong Province, Zhejiang Province, etc. The distribution of IP addresses attacked by computer malicious programs in China is shown in Figure 2.

Figure 1 Distribution of computer malicious code propagation sources outside China

Fig. 2 IP distribution under computer malicious code attack in China

(2) Infection of users of computer malicious programs

The number of hosts infected with computer malicious programs in China is about 3.04 million, up 25.7% year-on-year. About 25,000 computer malicious program control servers located abroad control about 3.03 million hosts in China. In terms of the countries or regions where the control servers belong, the number of control servers located in the United States, China, Hong Kong and the Netherlands ranks in the top three, with about 8,216, 1,478 and 1,064 respectively, with specific distribution as shown in Figure 3; In terms of the number of hosts controlled in China, the control scales of control servers located in the United States, the Netherlands and Germany rank the top three, controlling about 2.52 million, 1.27 million and 1.17 million hosts in China respectively, as shown in Figure 4. In addition, according to the sampling monitoring data, it is found that attacks against IPv6 networks have also begun to appear, and computer malicious program control servers with about 1,200 IPv6 addresses abroad have controlled about 15,000 IPv6 address hosts in China.

Fig. 3 Distribution of control terminals of overseas Trojan botnets that control hosts in China.

Figure 4 Countries or regions that control the number of TOP10 hosts in China.

From the regional distribution of the number of hosts infected with computer malicious programs in China, they are mainly distributed in Jiangsu Province (accounting for 15.3% of the infected number in China), Zhejiang Province (accounting for 11.9%), Guangdong Province (accounting for 11.6%), etc. The specific distribution is shown in Figure 5. Among botnets infected with malicious computer programs, there are 4,696 botnets with a scale of more than 100 hosts and 16 botnets with a scale of more than 100,000, as shown in Figure 6. Relevant institutions have disposed of 45 botnets with large control scale, effectively controlling the harm caused by computer malicious programs infecting the host.

Figure 5 The number of hosts infected with Trojan bots in China is distributed by region.

Figure 6 Scale distribution of botnets

(3) Malicious mobile Internet programs

Through independent capture and vendor exchange, more than 1.63 million malicious mobile Internet programs were discovered, up 58.3% year-on-year. Through the statistics of malicious behavior of malicious programs, it is found that the top three are still hooliganism, tariff consumption and information theft, accounting for 36.5%, 29.2% and 15.1% respectively. In order to effectively prevent the harm of malicious programs on the mobile Internet and strictly control the spread of malicious programs on the mobile Internet, 812 malicious programs on 125 platforms providing mobile application download services in China have been removed, effectively preventing the harm of malicious programs on the mobile Internet and strictly controlling the spread of malicious programs on the mobile Internet.

In recent years, China has gradually increased the security management of App stores and Applications, requiring App stores to conduct real-name audits of developers who put apps on the shelves, and conduct security inspections and content copyright audits on apps, which makes it more difficult for Internet black-market app stores to spread malicious apps. At the same time, however, the "edge-ball" gray applications that can evade supervision and achieve bad purposes have increased. For example, counterfeit apps with fishing purposes and fraudulent behaviors have become an important tool for illegal production, which continues to pose a greater threat to users in important industries such as finance, transportation and telecommunications. In the first half of 2020, 180 new download links of counterfeit apps were discovered through independent monitoring and complaint reporting. These counterfeit apps have the characteristics of easy copying, frequent version updates, and rapid spread of hot spots. They are mainly concentrated in popular applications such as counterfeit public security law, banking, social software, payment software, and ticketing software. The counterfeiting methods are mainly counterfeit names, icons, pages, etc., which are very deceptive. At present, because developers need to submit proof materials such as software copyright before Applying for the Application in the app store, it is difficult for counterfeit apps to be put on the app store, and its circulation channels are mainly concentrated in other online communication channels such as network disk, cloud disk and advertising platform.

(4) Malicious programs for networked smart devices

At present, there are more than 15 malicious programs active on smart devices, including Mirai, Gafgyt, Dofloo, Tsunami, Hajime, MrBlack, Mozi, PinkPot and so on. These malicious programs generally invade and control smart devices through vulnerabilities and violent cracking. After being controlled by intrusion, there are security threats and risks such as user information and device data being stolen, hardware devices being controlled and destroyed, devices being used as a springboard to attack other hosts in the intranet or launching DDoS attacks abroad. In the first half of the year, about 1.26 million malicious programs were found on smart devices, most of which belonged to Mirai family and Gafgyt family, accounting for more than 96.0%. There are more than 50,000 IP addresses in the server, and the number of IP addresses of suspected infected smart devices in China is about 920,000, which is basically the same as that in the first half of 2019, mainly located in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Anhui, Shandong and Liaoning provinces. The accused networked smart devices launched DDoS attacks on more than 1,000 targets every day, which was basically the same as that in the first half of 2019.

Second, security vulnerabilities

The National Information Security Vulnerability Sharing Platform (CNVD) included 11,073 general security vulnerabilities, a substantial increase of 89.0% year-on-year. Among them, the number of high-risk vulnerabilities was 4,280 (accounting for 38.7%), up 108.3% year-on-year, and the number of "zero-day" vulnerabilities was 4,582 (accounting for 41.4%), up 80.7% year-on-year. Security vulnerabilities mainly cover vendors or platforms such as Google, WordPress and Oracle Bone Inscriptions. According to the statistics of the affected objects, the top three are application vulnerabilities (48.5%), Web application vulnerabilities (26.5%) and operating system vulnerabilities (10.0%), as shown in Figure 7. In the first half of 2020, CNVD handled nearly 15,000 incidents involving network security vulnerabilities such as government agencies and important information systems.

Figure 7CNVD includes statistics of security vulnerabilities classified by affected objects.

Third, denial of service attacks

Due to the characteristics of low attack cost and obvious attack effect, DDoS attack is still one of the most common and influential network security threats faced by Internet users. Sampling monitoring found that the number of high-traffic DDoS attacks with daily peak traffic exceeding 10Gbps in China was basically the same as that in 2019, with about 220 incidents.

(A) the active situation of attack resources

After continuous monitoring, analysis and disposal, the stability of available DDoS attack resources is reduced, and the number of available active resources is controlled at a low level. Cumulative monitoring found 2,379 active C&C control servers for launching DDoS attacks, of which 95.5% were located abroad, mainly from the United States, the Netherlands, Germany, etc. There are about 1.22 million active controlled hosts, of which 90.3% are from China, mainly from Jiangsu, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Shandong and Anhui provinces. There are about 8.01 million reflection attack servers, of which 67.4% are from China, mainly from Liaoning, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Jilin and Heilongjiang provinces.

(2) The situation of large-volume attacks in China

During the monitoring, it is found that the main attack methods are still TCP SYN Flood, NTP Amplification, SSDP Amplification, DNS Amplification and UDP Flood.The above five attacks accounted for 82.9%. In order to avoid traceability, attackers tend to use these attack methods which are easy to hide the attack source, and flexibly combine the attack traffic according to the protection of the attack target, and the proportion of mixed attack methods is 16.4%. In addition, with the rampant "DDoS as a service" black production mode in recent years, attackers tend to use high-traffic attacks to instantly paralyze the target network. The proportion of attacks with DDoS attack duration less than half an hour is 81.5%, and the targets are mainly located in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Fujian, Shandong, Guangdong and Beijing, accounting for 81.1%.

(3) The activity of mainstream attack platforms

Through continuous monitoring and tracking of the activity of DDoS attack platforms, it is found that DDoS attack platforms on web pages and botnet families such as Gafgyt, Mirai, Xor, BillGates and Mayday are still active, and there are many DDoS attacks. As one of the black production modes of "DDoS as a service", the web page DDoS attack platform provides services directly to users, and users can launch attacks on their own as needed, which greatly reduces the difficulty of launching DDoS attacks and leads to further proliferation of DDoS attacks. The monitoring found that the number of DDoS attacks initiated by the web DDoS attack platform was the largest, increasing by 32.2% compared with the first half of 2019. At present, a large number of active Internet of Things devices lacking security protection on the Internet provide a large number of controlled resources for the rampant development of DDoS attack platforms, resulting in a high number of DDoS attacks. New variants of Gafgyt and Mirai malicious programs appear constantly, which keeps the number of botnet control terminals and attack events formed by them at a high level, while Xor malicious program family has obvious characteristics that it provides "DDoS as a service" black-market business, showing that it maintains a high attack frequency with a small number of control terminals.

Fourth, website security

(A) phishing

The monitoring found that there were about 19,000 counterfeit pages for websites in China. CNCERT mainly disposed of 6,226 counterfeit pages such as online business halls in the financial industry and telecommunications industry, with a year-on-year decrease of 48.1%. In the coordinated disposal of counterfeit pages, the IP address of the counterfeit page still ranks first in China and Hongkong, accounting for 74.0%. At the same time, the number of counterfeit pages on the "ETC online authentication" website on the internet has increased by spurt. After entering May, the number of phishing pages related to "ETC online authentication" accounted for as high as 61.2%, and the main IP addresses of such phishing websites are still located abroad. The forms of counterfeiting mainly include different page themes such as "ETC information authentication", "ETC online authentication" and "ETC online authentication center", and fraudsters trick users into submitting personal privacy information such as real name, bank card account number, ID number, bank reserved mobile phone number and withdrawal password.

(2) The back door of the website

About 18,000 IP addresses at home and abroad have implanted backdoors into about 35,900 websites in China, and the number of websites implanted with backdoors in China has increased by 36.9% compared with the first half of 2019. Among them, there are about 18,000 overseas IP addresses (accounting for 99.3% of all IP addresses) that have implanted backdoors into about 35,700 websites in China, with the most IP addresses located in the United States, accounting for 19.0% of the total overseas IP addresses, followed by IP addresses located in the Philippines and China, as shown in Figure 8. In terms of controlling the total number of websites in China, IP addresses located in the Philippines control the largest number of websites in China, about 13,600, followed by IP addresses located in China, Hongkong and the United States, which control 7,300 and 6,020 websites in China respectively. In addition, with the accelerated deployment of IPv6 in China, the scope of websites supporting IPv6 is expanding. In addition, there were 592 backdoor incidents of websites whose attack source and target were IPv6 addresses, involving a total of 35 attack source IPv6 addresses and 72 domain names of attacked IPv6 address resolution websites.

Figure 8 TOP10 of the country or region where the backdoor IP address is implanted into the website in China from overseas.

(C) Web tampering

There are about 74,000 websites that have been tampered with in China, including 318 government websites that have been tampered with. Judging from the distribution of top-level domain names of tampered web pages in China, ".com", ".net" and ".org" still rank in the top three, accounting for 74.1%, 5.1% and 1.7% of the total respectively, as shown in Figure 9.

Figure 9 Distribution of tampered websites in China by top-level domain name

V. Cloud platform security

The situation of network security threats on China’s cloud platforms is still grim. First of all, the proportion of all kinds of network security incidents that occurred on the mainstream cloud platforms in China is still high. Among them, the number of DDoS attacks on the cloud platform accounts for 76.1% of the attacks on domestic targets, the number of embedded backdoor links accounts for 90.3% of all embedded backdoor links in China, and the number of tampered pages accounts for 93.2% of the number of tampered pages in China. Secondly, attackers often use China’s cloud platform to launch cyber attacks. Among them, the number of DDoS attacks initiated by the cloud platform as the control terminal accounts for 79.0% of the number of DDoS attacks initiated by domestic control, the number of IP addresses of controlled terminals controlled by malicious programs such as Trojans and botnets accounts for 96.3% of all IP addresses of controlled terminals in China, and the number of malicious programs carried by them accounts for 79.0% of the number of malicious programs carried on the domestic Internet.

Six, industrial control system safety

(A) exposure of industrial control system on the Internet side

Monitoring found that 4,630 industrial devices were exposed to the Internet, involving 47 types of devices, such as programmable logic controllers, intelligent buildings and data acquisition, from 35 domestic and foreign manufacturers. The specific types are shown in Figure 10. Among them, the equipment with high-risk vulnerabilities accounts for about 41%. The monitoring found 480 sets of networked monitoring and management systems exposed in key industries such as electric power, oil and gas, urban rail transit, etc., including 262 sets of electric power, 118 sets of oil and gas, and 100 sets of urban rail transit. The types involved include government supervision platform, remote monitoring, asset management, engineering safety, data detection system, pipe network dispatching system, OA system, cloud platform, etc. The specific platform types are shown in Figure 11. Among them, about 11.1% systems have high-risk vulnerabilities such as information leakage, cross-site request forgery and improper input verification. Once the industrial control system exposed to the Internet is attacked, it will seriously threaten the safety of the production system.

Fig. 10 Type statistics of networked industrial equipment discovered by monitoring.

Figure 11 Statistics on the types of networked monitoring management systems in key industries discovered by monitoring.

(II) Threat monitoring on the Internet side of industrial control system

The network assets of domestic industrial control systems continue to be scanned and sniffed from abroad, with an average of more than 20,000 times a day. Through analysis, the sniffing behavior originated from 90 countries such as the United States, Britain and Germany, and the target involved networked industrial control equipment and systems in key industries such as energy, manufacturing and communication. A large number of network assets information of key information infrastructure and its networked control system are sniffed abroad, which brings hidden dangers to cyberspace security in China. China’s large industrial cloud platforms, such as Genyun, Aerospace Cloud, OneNET, COSMOPlat, Aopu Cloud and Jizhiyun, continue to suffer from network attacks from abroad, with an average number of attacks of 114 times per day, up 27% year-on-year. The types of attacks are shown in Figure 12, involving remote code execution, denial of service, Web vulnerability exploitation, etc. Industrial cloud platforms carry a large number of access devices, business systems, as well as enterprise, personal information and important data.

Figure 12 Type distribution of attack events of industrial cloud platform

(3) Information on safety loopholes of industrial control products

The four vulnerability platforms of CNVD, CVE, NVD and CNNVD newly included 323 vulnerabilities of industrial control system products, of which high, medium and dangerous vulnerabilities accounted for 94.7%. As shown in Figure 13 and Figure 14, the products affected by the vulnerability are widely used in key information infrastructure industries such as manufacturing, energy, water treatment, information technology, chemical industry, transportation, commercial facilities, agriculture, water conservancy projects, government agencies, etc. The product suppliers involved in the vulnerability mainly include ABB, Wanke, Siemens, Advantech, Schneider, Mossa, Mitsubishi, Haiwei, Asia Control and Yonghong.

Attachment: Analysis Report on China’s Internet Network Security Monitoring Data in the First Half of 2020

Aauto Quicker’s 20,000-30,000 second-hand electric vehicles are on sale, and the "naked swimming" of electric vehicles behind the "cemetery" of new energy vehicles has begun.

According to Hualong. com, chefs don’t wear masks, and the kitchen is messy … In the future, in Jiangbei District, these "bad habits" of catering will be captured by AI and monitored in real time. On the 2nd, Hualong. com reporter learned from Jiangbei District Market Supervision Bureau that the big data smart supervision platform developed by the bureau for half a year was officially put into trial operation, which marked that the smart market supervision in Jiangbei District has entered a new level. The platform mainly covers three major areas: sunshine catering+intelligent supervision, unlicensed and lost enterprise management, and intelligent elevator management. It is the first platform in the city to capture 13 kinds of violations common in catering by artificial intelligence.

Dining enterprises in canteens are equipped with "clairvoyance" to guard the safety on the tip of the tongue.

The reporter saw at the scene that on the sunshine catering+smart supervision system, through remote inspections, the school’s back kitchen, rough machining room and cooking room; The production workshops, inspection rooms, etc. of food enterprises can be seen at a glance. Through the Sunshine Catering APP, the real-time situation of the kitchen, restaurant information and user satisfaction included in the monitoring restaurant can also be known in time. This means that in the operating rooms of catering enterprises, school canteens and food enterprises, once food is placed on the ground at will and chefs do not wear masks, it may be captured by artificial intelligence.

"This is equivalent to installing a’ clairvoyance’ for restaurant enterprises and canteens, which will better protect the safety on the tip of the tongue." According to the relevant person in charge of the Jiangbei District Market Supervision Bureau, at present, the number of catering units in Jiangbei District has increased to more than 6,500, but the number of supervisors has not increased. There are many regulatory targets and the regulatory pressure is greater, while the Sunshine Catering+Smart Supervision System has well alleviated this problem.

According to the person in charge, at present, 79 school canteens, 44 food production units, 12 old-age care institutions, and 73 catering business units in Jiangbei District Food Safety Demonstration Street (Jiujie) have installed intelligent monitoring, which is included in the Sunshine Catering+Smart Supervision System, which can automatically capture 13 common violations such as not wearing masks, messy kitchens and irregular food stacking.

"This not only provides reliable image information for our supervision and law enforcement, but also exposes some monitoring contents to the Internet, so that parents, family members and consumers can fully participate in supervision and form a good situation of food safety and social co-governance." According to the person in charge, for example, diners can directly report and reflect through the "Direct Person in Charge" column on the APP if they find that the restaurant company has violated the rules.

"Smart" Supervision and Construction of "1+2+3+N" Mode

In fact, the Sunshine Catering+Smart Supervision System is only the "tip of the iceberg" of the big data smart supervision platform in Jiangbei District. The platform also mainly covers the management of unlicensed and lost enterprises, intelligent elevator management and other fields. The overall concept of the platform construction is "intelligence, integration and judgment", and the overall framework is built with the mode of "1+2+3+N".

"1" means to build a big data command center with a giant LED screen of more than 200 inches, which can undertake many tasks such as data analysis, emergency command and conference reception; "2" refers to the construction of two comprehensive platforms: analysis and display and risk early warning; "3" refers to the establishment of three special supervision systems: unlicensed and lost enterprise management, sunshine catering+smart supervision and intelligent elevator management.

According to reports, the unlicensed and lost enterprise management system searches for the contact information of the lost enterprise and its senior management through data exchange and internal integration, so as to realize "one loss and multiple searches". The system realizes the whole-process electronic management of unlicensed business activities supervised by the system, and the whole-process electronic transfer of unlicensed business clues such as black hotels supervised by other departments. At present, the system has transferred more than 20 clues to public security and health departments.

The intelligent elevator supervision system can realize the functions of elevator fault statistical analysis, elevator rescue, appeasement and monitoring, and electronic elevator maintenance management. The relevant person in charge of the Jiangbei District Market Supervision Bureau said that at present, sensors and cameras are installed for 480 elevators in old communities with a service life of more than 15 years, which are included in the scope of system supervision. "If there are many trapped incidents and fault incidents in elevators, they will be closely monitored. At the same time, the behavior of’ falsification’ in elevator maintenance in the past will also be effectively suppressed. "

"N" refers to the integration of N data of various business systems in use.

Brief introduction of the 6th generation of Honda Accord;

As the main best-selling model in China, the Accord has now reached the ninth generation, so what about the sixth generation as its predecessor and pioneer?

In appearance, the adoption of European-style design not only highlights the sedateness but also does not lose the fashion. At that time, it was full of strong business atmosphere, which was all the rage.

In terms of power, it is different from the current 2.4L and 3.0L standard. At that time, two engines, 2.3L and 3.0L, were used. The maximum power was 110KW and 177KW, the maximum speed was 195km/h and 200km/h, and the acceleration per 100 km was 12.4S and 9.2S At that time, this power performance was very high, and it was difficult to find an opponent in the same class.

In the body configuration, Honda’s world-first 5-speed automatic transmission, VTEC variable valve technology and ESP auxiliary system were adopted, which was both comfortable and maneuverable at that time.

As Honda’s first joint venture with China, the Six-Generation Accord almost subverted China’s concept of passenger cars, and now almost all the praise and reputation for the Accord are based on that time.
