Ne Zha: This domestic animation is worth blowing.

Every summer, cartoons are naturally indispensable. Since the re-release of Miyazaki Hayao’s Spirited Away, there have been many animations released so far, such as Pet Secret 2, GG Bond’s Unbelievable World, Mobile Suit Gundam NT, Night of Destiny-Goblet 2, etc. Except for Spirited Away, most of them have no splash. However, it can be boldly predicted that after the domestic cartoon Ne Zha is released, it will definitely rewrite the layout of this year’s summer cartoon; Especially in the case that several blockbuster movies have been withdrawn, Ne Zha will do more.

Ne Zha poster. Nezha in the poster is a transformed Nezha, who is usually not so handsome.

Ne Zha has a good production team. The director is jiaozi, born in 1980s. Although he only directed two short films "The Boss’s Woman" and "Hit, Hit a Big Watermelon" before, 40,000 people scored 8.6 points in "Hit, Hit a Big Watermelon". The main producer of the film, Caitiaowu Film, has also produced animation masterpieces such as Big Fish Begonia, Great Protector and Great World before.

On the announcement, Ne Zha also took the point-and-shoot strategy. On July 13th and 14th, it was only a small-scale film, and the word-of-mouth was more than that of Return of the Great Sage. The film quickly launched a larger-scale screening nationwide from July 17th to July 21st, and the good word-of-mouth continued to ferment. Many viewers believe that compared with The Return of the Great Sage and The White Snake: The Origin, Ne Zha has made a fundamental leap from text to audio-visual language.

Is this "rainbow fart"? Frankly speaking, after the trailer was released, many people were generally not optimistic about Ne Zha. There were many bad reviews on the douban, and they vowed to say, "If the bad film is booked, the box office will be forgotten." Because of Nezha’s painting style in the trailer-it’s really "ugly" (of course, it smells good afterwards). Even at the beginning of the film, the blinding modern light design and a strong "Trump" made people think that it was a bad film. But if you stick to it, your prejudice will be broken-and as it happens, this is also a theme of this movie.

Just looking at the forecast and materials, you will find Nezha very "ugly", although you will find him very "cute" after watching the movie.

As a classic figure in China’s ancient legends, Nezha has many film and television images. What kind of Nezha image did Ne Zha portray? Why does Ne Zha represent a step forward in domestic animation?

The Evolution of Nezha’s Image

Attentive viewers will find that from the first Asian animated feature film Princess Iron Fan (1941) born in China to White Snake: The Origin, which received rave reviews in early 2019, the development of Chinese cartoons has always drawn nutrition from ancient myths and legends in China, and "Westward Journey to the Universe", "Godly Universe" and "White Snake Universe" are important creative sources for the development of film and television dramas. This is actually consistent with Disney’s strategy of constantly remaking some classic fairy tales: fairy tales, myths, legends, etc. have a huge audience base, and both continuation and innovation can attract widespread attention.

Nezha is one of the most influential mythological images in China, and also one of the most common images in domestic cartoons. As soon as the prelude of "It’s him, it’s him, it’s him, our friend Nezha Jr." rings, it is estimated that more than half of the post-80s and post-90s will hum.

In 2003, the 52-episode animated film The Legend of Nezha influenced countless post-80s and post-90s. The theme song "Young Hero Little Nezha" has a high degree of nationality.

It is generally believed that Nezha, who is from Indian Buddhism and whose full name in Sanskrit is Naluo Jiupo or Naqijufalo, is the third prince of Vishamun King (it is also said that he is related to Vishamun King between grandparents and grandchildren). Nezha is a dharma protector in Indian Buddhism, belonging to the hag god system. His duty is to assist the Visha King in defending the dharma, eliminating evil and protecting the world. With the introduction of Buddhism into China, the oral legend of Nezha was introduced into China after the Han Dynasty.

The dharma protectors in Buddhism are generally ferocious, in order to highlight their hatred, bravery and strength. The same is true of Nezha, who has three heads and six arms. In Buddhist scriptures, "anger" is often used to describe Nezha’s personality. According to the tripitaka, Nezha’s "White Buddha’s Word" says, "I uphold Buddhism, and I want to capture and bind the wicked or have a bad heart. I guard the king’s ministers and Baiguanliao day and night. For those who kill Daling, we will wait for Nezha to stab them in the eye and heart with a golden staff. If you are a monk or nun, you will be beaten on the head with a diamond rod. "

So, how did Indian Buddhism come to Nezha to become a China figure? Scholars pointed out that Nezha’s image evolved with the evolution of Li Jing. Probably in the Southern Song Dynasty, the famous Li Jing of Sui and Tang Dynasties evolved into the King of Pishamen, and naturally, the son of the King of Pishamen became the son of Li Jing. This also created conditions for the further evolution of Nezha’s image.

Through two famous fantasy novels of Ming Dynasty, The Journey to the West and Romance of the Gods, Nezha was gradually shaped and deeply rooted in people’s hearts. In The Journey to the West, Nezha has been included in the Taoist immortal system. He has changed from a Buddhist god to the son of the heavenly commander of the Taoist Jade Emperor, King Tota, and is also an important god of war of the Jade Emperor. Nezha’s image in the novel is, "The little boy was born with a strange appearance and was very lean. The whole thing is: the jade face is as charming as a full moon, and the square mouth of the lips shows silver teeth. The eyes are bright and the beads are violent, and the forehead is wide and the hair is bun. Embroidery with dancing wind and colorful flames, brocade robe reflecting the sun and releasing golden flowers. Ring tapestry burning climbing mirror, Baojia Huihui lining combat boots. How magnificent it is to be quiet, and to protect Nezha for three days. " Here, Nezha is a lovely but angry child.

Li Jing and Nezha in the 86 edition of The Journey to the West, Nezha hand-held Gankun circle.

In the Romance of Gods, Nezha was further "Taoist". He is the spiritual bead of the Taoist founder Yuan Shi Tian Zun, reincarnated as the son of Li Men in Chentangguan, and helped Jiang Ziya destroy the Shang Dynasty and prosper the Zhou Dynasty in the next life. Nezha’s temperament became more and more "angry", he ignored authority, was unrestrained, and had a strong rebellious spirit. He called the Dragon King an "old loach", killed Li Gen, and drew the tendons of Ao Bing. Nezha is still with his parents because of filial piety. After the incarnation of lotus, his image is "two lotus flowers are now incarnated, and Lingzhu II is out of the dust. Portable purple flame snake spear treasure; Step on jinxia hot wheels. The leopard skin is safe in the world; The people are blessed in the red brocade. The sages of the past dynasties are the first, and the historians have written a thousand years. " He became the demon-subduer and the god of water-saving in the system.

After that, Nezha’s artistic image generally followed the setting of The Journey to the West and The Romance of the Gods. Whether Nezha played a supporting role, such as the cartoon "Make a scene in Heaven", The Journey to the West in 1986, or Nezha became the protagonist, such as the cartoon "What a scene" and "The Legend of Nezha", Nezha was mainly a child/teenager with a "angry" personality or cute and daring.

Nezha in the 1979 edition of What’s the Sea?

Nezha in Lotus Lantern Prequel is probably the cutest version of Nezha in the live-action version.

As for Nezha’s famous story of cutting meat and boning bones, there are also different interpretations, or as recorded in the novel The Journey to the West, "His father, the King of Heaven, was afraid of future troubles and wanted to kill Nezha" (resisting feudal patriarchy), or as recorded in The Romance of Gods, "One man acts as one man, and I kill Ao Bing, so I should pay for my life, and there is no reason why I have children to implicate my parents" (expressing filial piety and embodying the heroic spirit of self-sacrifice).

"the magic boy came to the world"

The cartoon Ne Zha is more influenced by the novel Romance of the Gods, but it only draws lessons from the basic relationship between characters, and the specific plot and personality of the characters have been greatly changed, with a high originality index.

The origin of the story is that the aura of heaven and earth gave birth to a "mixed bead" with great energy, and the mixed bead was refined into "spirit bead" and "magic pill" by the Buddha at the beginning, and the "spirit bead" was reincarnated as a human being, which was of great use; The "magic pill" will give birth to the devil, which is a disaster for the world. The Buddha of the Yuan Dynasty started the curse of Armageddon. Three years later, the thunder will come and destroy the magic pill. Real Taiyi, a disciple of the Buddha at the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, was ordered to entrust the spirit bead to Nezha, the son of Li Jing in Chentangguan.

However, by mistake, Lingzhu and Magic Pill were switched, and Nezha, who was supposed to be the hero of Lingzhu, became the devil in troubled times … This created two strong suspense: Nezha, who was supposed to be the reincarnation of Lingzhu, became the reincarnation of Magic Pill. What should he do? Three years later, it was doomed by lightning. Can Nezha overcome fate?

Although he was reincarnated as a magic pill, Nezha was not born with great magic, and he was as innocent as a blank sheet of paper, but prejudice destroyed him. There is also a scene in the movie: Nezha, who ran from home to the street for the first time, wanted to play shuttlecock with a little sister, but when people found him, they shouted in horror and several friends threw things at him. They thought that Nezha was a magic boy.

The people are full of prejudice against Nezha and are very resistant.

Nezha was ostracized, discriminated, hated and hurt by everyone. Even with his family, he just wanted to isolate him. Excavate asked that Nezha should not be allowed to leave the house; Even though his mother dotes on him, she can only sigh helplessly, "Maybe this is her life."

Nezha’s parents also chose to "accept their fate."

Is this really fate? Nezha was unhappy, dissatisfied and unhappy, but the heavy shackles of fate-or, more precisely, the exclusion of all the people around him-trapped him firmly. His choice was: OK, since you think I am a monster, I will honestly be a monster. He is mischievous, broken pots and broken falls, doing evil and causing trouble. From time to time, I have to go out and make trouble, so that Chen Tangguan can make trouble.

Therefore, when Nezha appeared, he gave the impression that he was a Xiong Haizi and a little devil. It is no wonder that the image created by the film looks ugly: short, with severe dark circles under his eyes, frustrated, and always pretending to be cool when walking.

Ne Zha’s script structure is a typical "three-act structure" in Hollywood, and the audience can completely predict the ending of the story: Nezha, who was regarded as a magic boy at first, will definitely become a prodigy to save all beings after several twists and turns (there are not many spoilers here). He shouted, "It’s up to me to say whether it’s a magic or a fairy", "My life is up to me" and "If my fate is unfair, I will fight him to the end". What magic pills are reincarnated as magic children and what can’t escape lightning in three years? Fuck you!

Nezha doesn’t believe in life.

If the film is just like this, maybe you won’t notice anything special about Nezha. After all, the themes of breaking the binary opposition between good and evil, resisting fate, and making my own destiny are not uncommon in Nezha-related film and television dramas, and the theme of many chicken soup movies is precisely this.

What’s so special about Nezha?

An unprecedented Nezha.

I think that Nezha in Ne Zha is unprecedented because the writers and directors have injected a tragic core into him-you think he is hot, fried and cool, but he is lonely, fragile and helpless inside; You think this is a winner’s story, but it is also a story of "ordinary people" and "losers". "Angry" Nezha has a soft heart like ordinary people.

It is not difficult for the audience to see the shadow of Stephen Chow’s comedy from Ne Zha, and director jiaozi once said that he is a fan of Stephen Chow. Not only are there some comic images (like a bearded rough man with a girlish voice in the movie), but also some comic scenes (funny shit and urine). More importantly, the image of Nezha also continues the core of Stephen Chow’s comedy-comedy is tragedy. Borrowing a summary of Stephen Chow’s films by film critic Mei Xuefeng, "At the core of Zhou Xingchi’s films, at the core of that tragedy, a lonely man lives in his heart with a simple child, who is ignored by the secular world and silently and ridiculously adheres to his ideals."

Many expressions of Nezha in the film are reminiscent of many movie images of Stephen Chow. Maybe there is some reference in animation modeling?

Just like Nezha in the movie sang, "I am a little monster, carefree and free, killing people without blinking, eating people without salt." Is he really free and easy? He is desperate for approval, desperate for it. So when he finally got his first friend, Ao Bing, he was extremely happy and cherished (Nezha and Ao Bing kicked shuttlecock at the seaside, and they all had the appreciate each other feeling of "I raised you" in king of comedy); So when Li Jing tricked him into being the reincarnation of Lingzhu, he immediately devoted himself to doing good, killing demons and removing demons …

Nezha and Ao Bing should have a batch of CP powder.

Just like the little people in Stephen Chow’s movies, they have a humble dream; But once the cold world rejected their dreams, they also chose to trample on themselves while the world trampled on them. So Nezha said, if you think I’m a monster, I’ll be a monster. His self-indulgence seems to abuse the people in Chentangguan, and it is also self-abuse.

His abuse and self-abuse reflect the coldness of the world, just as the dragon king said in the movie, "People’s prejudices are like a giant mountain, no matter how hard you try, you can’t move them." Or more profoundly, the cruelty comes from the hands of Yuan Shi Tian Zun, who represents the feudal authority-the focus of "being born as a demon, so what" is not the burning of "so what", but what makes you think that some people are "born as a demon"? Assuming that Nezha and Ao Bing didn’t save the people in Chentangguan, are they doomed to be demons and be spurned in prejudice?

"Born to be a demon, so what?" focuses on the first half or the second half, which means completely different.

Nezha in Ne Zha has a self-protection skill acquired in cruelty-each of us has developed this skill: pretending not to care, pretending to be free and easy, pretending to be indifferent, pretending to be unsociable, pretending to be a bad person … At the moment of life and death in the movie, Nezha told his family that today is my birthday party, and none of you are allowed to cry. This is a moment of tears. But this moment also reflects to some extent that Nezha is still habitually protecting himself in his heart: What if you don’t cry when I leave? Therefore, he can only "strike first" and make everyone stop crying.

The burning of Ne Zha’s "My life is up to me" will impress many people, but if we go deep into it, it hides another narrative: how a person who has been abandoned by the world’s indifference and is extremely eager to identify with himself carefully guards his inner innocence and how to humbly please and live in prejudice. This may be even more worrying.

This film is not a simple "mourning" that can be summarized. Behind the hippie smile, it has real cruelty and pain.

Learn the domestic animation of "telling stories"

Over the past few years, The Return of the Great Sage, The Big Fish Begonia and The White Snake: The Origin have all gained a lot of praise, but they also criticized the voice, mainly focusing on: the story is too weak.

In fact, domestic animation had a glorious moment. After the Shanghai Animation Film Studio was formally established in 1957, it opened the golden decade of domestic animation. There is even a saying of "China Animation School" in the world animation circle, which refers to "a batch of animation works with distinctive China characteristics that originated in 1950s, matured in 1960s and harvested in 1970s and 1980s". The most classic in the history of animation in China, Make a scene in Heaven, was also born at this stage.

After the twists and turns in 1970s and the short revival in 1980s, Chinese cartoons fell into a long recession after 1990s, and the domestic animation market was basically monopolized by Japanese cartoons and Hollywood cartoons. Until recent years, domestic cartoons slowly rose, with several excellent cartoons almost every year. However, compared with Japanese or Hollywood cartoons, domestic cartoons still have a big gap. The technical gap has been continuously eliminated, and the core gap still lies in the ability to "tell stories".

The story, first of all, is reflected in the most basic, you have to have a beginning and an end, be fluent, have content and stand up. Although Ne Zha continues the legend of Nezha, his originality is extremely high, which not only reshapes the relationship between Nezha and Li Jing, Ao Bing and others, but also makes the images of Li Jing, Ao Bing and Shen Gongbao full, three-dimensional and moving as never before. Ao Bing and Shen Gongbao are the other side of Nezha, but they face different cruel choices. Aobing and Li Jing in the movie should be able to circle a large number of fans.

Secondly, it is the level of imagination. The media form of animation determines that it can contain imagination to the maximum extent, not worrying about not being able to present imagination, but worrying that you have no imagination and make animation technology useless. Many details in Ne Zha, such as the shuttlecock, the map of mountains and rivers, and the three-dimensional pinball, such as the action design and visual presentation during fighting, can make the audience fully feel the flying and gorgeous imagination.

The movie animation design is exquisite and amazing.

The level of storytelling ability is ultimately reflected in the level of values. A good story is both universal and advanced. Just like the cartoon "Where is the Sea?", it was amazing. Under the background of that time, how shocking was it to cut the flesh and bone and return it to the father?

At present, the core competitiveness of Hollywood cartoons is that they are too good at telling stories. The audience of cartoons is suitable for all ages, and its stories can be eaten by all ages. Children see one meaning, while adults can see another meaning. For example, in Zootopia, the whimsical animal world can bring joy to children. At the same time, the film’s mapping of politics and power makes adults relish it.

Generally speaking, the storytelling ability of domestic cartoons is still relatively weak, either too young, or too much emphasis on the so-called "adult orientation" and lack of balance. In this context, Ne Zha may be regarded as a small step forward in domestic animation, which tells a story that is not difficult to understand, but also tells a story with depth.

"People’s prejudices are like a giant mountain, no matter how hard you try, you can’t move it." People also have many prejudices about domestic animation. Ne Zha will "move" the huge mountain of prejudice, which deserves our support by buying tickets.

Looking at the "decline" of the implementation effect of the "new regulations on drunk driving punishment" through the data of handling cases has become a key highlight.

CCTV News:On August 6th, the Supreme People’s Procuratorate released the case data since the implementation of the new regulations on drunk driving punishment for the first time. In the first half of this year, the procuratorial organs accepted and prosecuted 171,000 people for dangerous driving crimes, a sharp drop compared with the same period of last year.

From January to June this year, the procuratorial organs accepted and prosecuted 171,000 people for dangerous driving crimes, down 38.7% year-on-year, reaching the lowest level in the same period since 2021; The proportion of drunk driving crimes in criminal cases decreased from 31.9% in 2022 to 15.6%. Unifying judicial standards, the procuratorate decided to prosecute 143,000 people for dangerous driving crimes, a year-on-year decrease of 12.2%; For cases that are obviously minor and do not constitute a crime, the public security organs have supervised the withdrawal of nearly 20,000 cases.

The person in charge of the relevant departments of the Supreme People’s Procuratorate introduced that the new regulations on drunk driving punishment unified the national judicial standards for drunk driving law enforcement, and built a drunk driving governance system in which administrative punishment and criminal justice were connected and stepped forward. Procuratorial organs actively apply the "new regulations", strictly control the evidence, and insist on punishing those who meet the conditions for arrest and prosecution according to law. In view of the large number and wide range of drunk driving cases, some areas have innovated to promote the construction of a "one-stop" litigation governance center for quick settlement of criminal summary cases, and improved litigation efficiency. Nearly half of the dangerous driving cases handled by procuratorial organs were settled within 7 days, and the pattern of rapid handling of drunk driving cases is taking shape.

At the same time, non-prosecution does not mean non-punishment. Procuratorial organs, public security and judicial departments actively promote the construction of drunk driving prevention and control system, explore flexible punishment mode, and take voluntary participation in public service as a consideration factor for applying confession and punishment and relative non-prosecution treatment. Many places across the country have established a system of civilized traffic guidance social service and community public welfare service for those who are not prosecuted, promoting governance by case, and making efforts to solve the problem of grassroots social governance.

"new regulations on punishment for drunk driving": if the circumstances of drunk driving are minor, you can not sue or be convicted and exempted from punishment.

In China, drunk driving has been punished for more than ten years. On December 28th, 2023, Opinions on Handling Criminal Cases of Dangerous Driving under Drunk Conditions (hereinafter referred to as Opinions), also known as "New Regulations on Punishment for Drunk Driving", came into effect. The "Opinions" clarify that if the circumstances of drunk driving are minor, you can not prosecute or be convicted and exempted from punishment; If the circumstances are obviously minor and the harm is not great, it may not be treated as a crime. What kind of drunk driving circumstances can be considered as minor? Look at the specific rules.

Article 4 of the Opinions stipulates that if driving a motor vehicle on the road shows that the blood alcohol content reaches more than 80 mg/100ml after breath alcohol content test, the public security organ shall decide whether to file a case in accordance with the Criminal Procedure Law and the provisions of this Opinion. If the circumstances are obviously minor, the harm is not great, and it is not considered a crime, the case will not be filed.

Article 12 of the Opinions stipulates that if drunk driving has one of the following circumstances and does not have the circumstances stipulated in Article 10 of the Opinions, it can be considered that the circumstances are obviously minor and the harm is not great.

(a) the blood alcohol content is less than 150 mg /100 ml;

(2) Driving a motor vehicle for emergency situations such as first aid for the injured and wounded, and it does not constitute an emergency;

(three) in residential areas, parking lots and other places because of moving cars, parking and other short-distance driving;

(4) Driving a motor vehicle to a residential area, parking lot and other places for a short distance instead of driving it, or driving it from a residential area, parking lot and other places for the purpose of being driven by others;

(5) Other circumstances that are obviously minor.

If you have to drive a motor vehicle after being drunk for emergency situations such as giving first aid to the wounded and sick, which constitutes an emergency, it shall be dealt with in accordance with the provisions of Article 21 of the Criminal Law.

Article 5 of the Opinions also clearly stipulates the determination of "road" in drunk driving cases.

Whether the road sections within the jurisdiction of organs, enterprises and institutions, factories and mines, campuses, residential quarters and other units are identified as "roads" should be judged by whether they are "public" and whether they allow social motor vehicles to pass. Only motor vehicles within the unit and specific visiting motor vehicles are allowed to pass, which may not be recognized as "roads".

"new regulations on drunk driving punishment": fifteen drunk driving situations need to be dealt with severely

Drunk driving behavior is obviously minor and can not be treated as a crime. At the same time, however, the Opinions also stipulate that fifteen kinds of drunk driving situations need to be dealt with severely, and at the same time, ten kinds of drunk driving situations generally do not apply probation.

Article 10 of the "Opinions" stipulates that drunk driving does not constitute other crimes, but it needs to be dealt with severely, including those that cause traffic accidents and bear all or the main responsibility for the accidents; Causing escape after a traffic accident; Driving a car without obtaining a motor vehicle driver’s license; Seriously overcrowded, overloaded and speeding; Driving after taking psychotropic drugs or narcotic drugs controlled by the state; Driving a motor vehicle to engage in passenger transport activities and carrying passengers; Driving a motor vehicle to engage in school bus business and carrying teachers and students; Driving on the highway; Evade or obstruct the public security organs to check according to law; Having been found guilty of driving a motor vehicle after drinking alcohol or having been subjected to administrative punishment within two years; He has been convicted of dangerous driving behavior or made a relative non-prosecution within five years.

In the Opinions, if drunk driving also constitutes traffic accidents and other crimes, it is required to be convicted according to the crime with heavier punishment and be strictly investigated for criminal responsibility.

Punish it as a crime, the width is wide, and the strictness is strict. On the basis of stipulating that fifteen situations need to be dealt with severely, Article 14 of the Opinions also stipulates ten situations in which probation is generally not applicable, including causing minor injuries or minor injuries to others in traffic accidents, and bearing all or the main responsibility for the accident; Causing a traffic accident and taking full or main responsibility for the accident, without compensation for losses; Causing escape after a traffic accident; Driving a car without obtaining a motor vehicle driver’s license; Blood alcohol content exceeds 180mg/100ml; Taking violent measures to resist the inspection by public security organs according to law, or carrying out acts of obstruction of justice; Having been found guilty of driving a motor vehicle after drinking alcohol or having been subjected to administrative punishment within five years; He has been convicted of dangerous driving behavior or made a relative non-prosecution.

Basic Law of Genius: Truth and Love Not Only Mathematics | Interview with the Master |

author/Rain over smoke

The "Basic Law of Genius" ended, and only the world of cheese Pei was reached.

The joys and sorrows of human beings are not the same. In the strawberry world, Lin Zhaori is an ordinary person who needs to be adjusted for postgraduate entrance examination. His father has Alzheimer’s disease, and his talented boyfriend once gave up mathematics and became a boxer.

In the cheese world, they all made a name for themselves. Lin Zhaosheng and Pei Zhi solved the problem of P=NP together. Lin took his younger brother’s flower roll to the entertainment circle and became a young and promising boss of a brokerage company.

Which world would you choose?

"The best part of all time-travel novels and time-travel dramas is to change the world with cheating." As a director, Shen Yan understands the cool point of the audience.

However, he also knows that the core of crossing is to cherish the present. Everyone is not as fragile as they think. After experiencing difficulties and setbacks, more people choose to face their lives like Lin Zhaori.

After the broadcast of the Basic Law of Genius, public opinion seems to have formed two worlds:

Some viewers think that the drama series "magic change" deviates from the theme and characters of the novel;

Another part of the audience was pleasantly surprised by the understanding and expression of truth and love in Mobius’ ring-like fantasy story.

Lin Zhaoxi’s journey has come to an end for the time being, and the adventures of domestic drama creators have just begun.

The director of "scum" became attached to mathematics.

More than ten years ago, Shen Yan was deeply moved by the film The Pursuit of Happyness. The down-and-out salesman staged a counterattack feeling of Jedi counterattack, which instantly hit Shen Yan, and the idea of making a Chinese-style The Pursuit of Happyness was born. The inspirational story presented in the novel The Basic Law of Genius brought the possibility of Shen Yan’s conception to the ground.

Niu Jixin, the chief producer, expressed his intention to adapt the novel after reading it for a few days. Niu Jixin told me, "Although we couldn’t imagine what the Basic Law of Genius would be made at that time, according to our screening criteria, we are more concerned about the novelty of the project, the professional ability of the creative staff, and the understanding and insight of the audience. These are the selection factors closer to success."

The novel of "The Basic Law of Genius" has a large number of books. The creative team wants to adapt such a work that combines elements such as crossing, parallel time and space, mathematics and suspense. The difficulty can be imagined. If there is a little magic change, it will be easily spit out. Shen Yan is very aware of the risks. "I don’t have a CP combination with screenwriter Nie Chengshuai," Nie Shenzhong is guilty "(laughs).

Lin Zhaori and Ji Jiang’s double crossing is the first step made by the main creative team. Shen Yan thinks that double crossing is opportunistic, which can not only avoid Lin Zhaori’s difficulty in communicating with people in the cheese world, but also pave the way for the relationship between the characters behind.

In addition to adaptation, actors will also re-create their lines during filming, and improvisation is also the best part of creation.

The most impressive fragment of Shen Yan is that Lin Zhaoxi and Hua Juan feel that they can’t go back anymore and want to be brothers and sisters. Hua Juan’s face is full of words, "Why can’t I be your brother?" Lin stared at him in the morning and evening. "Look at your height." Hua Juan replied without weakness, "Look at the size of your strawberry world."

Seeing the ingenuity of these little actors, Shen Yan laughed at the monitor. A 9-year-old child could say such precise words in the characters.

When balancing various elements, Shen Yan put family ties in the first place, followed by love, and finally mathematics. The affection between father and son and father and daughter shown in the Basic Law of Genius is Shen Yan’s obsession. "As a father, I want to have a dialogue with my children through this drama."

Speaking of which, Shen Yan choked instantly and calmed down for a while before continuing to talk to you. As the creator of many national emotional dramas, Shen Yan is very good at dealing with subtle emotions between people, thinking that he is a particularly emotional person.

There is such a fragment in the play. Lin told Lin Zhaosheng the story of a fox in the morning and evening. Once upon a time, there was a little fox and his father lived alone. One day, his father was ill. At this time, the little fox shuttled to the parallel world and met his healthy father. How should the little fox choose?

Lao Lin told Lin Zhaori, "People have to face up to their own difficulties. Isn’t the parallel world a bit evasive?"

But Pei Zhi, a strawberry who lacks her father’s love, wants to stay in the cheese world and live with her father. After all, in the cheese world, my father can talk with him, fight with him, and support his mathematical ideal. The two emotions of attachment to family and giving up love hit strawberry Peizhi at the same time.

When they decided to return to the strawberry world, they had to hug and say goodbye to their respective fathers reluctantly, and the family ties were even more touching on the screen.

When talking about mathematics, Shen Yan made no secret of it. "I’m really a pure academic scum, and science is a mess. When we were filming, a math teacher joined the group, and I couldn’t solve many math problems in the play (laughs)."

However, after the basic law of genius was broadcast, Shen Yan’s daughter told him, "wake me up early tomorrow morning, and I want to study math." Friends also secretly believed in Shen Yan and wanted to enroll their children in the Olympic math class, which made Shen Yan feel gratified.

For Shen Yan, filming the Basic Law of Genius means doing something difficult and correct, but correctness is always relative. "The so-called correctness is based on the road of my co-creation with the screenwriter, and we need to follow our own ideas. If all aspects are considered, the play may not be done."

Two-way projection of genius and ordinary people

In the novel of the Basic Law of Genius, Pei Zhi is known as "Pei Shen" and is regarded as a god in everyone’s eyes.

However, the drama version of the Basic Law of Genius has pulled Pei Zhi off the altar and dragged him to the position of man. Shen Yan said frankly, "How can God write a film and television drama? Can you let the actors stand there forever like God without talking?"

The story of Pei’s refusal to go back in the cheese world is the deduction of Pei’s points by the creative team, which naturally offended many bookworms.

However, from the perspective of life, even if Pei is a genius, he will face the game of human nature and expose the weakness and dark side of human nature. "We have finally shaped an ordinary person."

Lin Zhaosheng, who is also a genius, has become an ordinary person, and the fate of suffering from Alzheimer’s disease may be embarrassing, but at this time, there seems to be no boundary between genius and ordinary people.

In Niu Jixin’s view, the idea of the Basic Law of Genius is to discuss genius and commonness from the incision of genius. "We don’t want to be a pure genius legend, but want to present the common life proposition of all people. The Basic Law of Genius is actually the basic law of life, how one should face life and how to make a choice."

In traditional film and television dramas, the talent’s personality is relatively solid and single, but the Basic Law of Genius has achieved a two-way perspective projection. While ordinary people look up to the genius, they show their own endeavor, while the genius is trapped in the situation of the small world and explores the break of the living space.

Pei zhi can make the paper into a hundred points in 10 minutes, which looks very open, but for himself, this is a normal part of life. Like everyone else, he needs to find his own life proposition. What makes Niu Jixin feel gratified is that many viewers deeply discuss the situation of genius through this drama, instead of simply labeling genius.

Although the protagonist of "The Basic Law of Genius" failed to get the anti-heaven skill of opening the golden finger, it brought a high sense of excitement to the audience in the process of leading ordinary children with average talent to win the championship. In the final analysis, all propositions in the strawberry world are discussions on social phenomena.

Most people in life are ordinary people, and their environment limits their vision, so there is no way to provide them with more choices. Whether it is sea tactics or burying their heads in endorsement, everything they do is admirable.

In this sense, the counterattack story presented in the Basic Law of Genius has brought psychological healing to this group, as Niu Jixin said: "No matter how the times change, the process of hard work is worthy of respect and recognition."

Whether studying mathematics or making movies and TV plays, everyone is working hard towards the goal they want to pursue. Aren’t these a part of ordinary people’s lives?

How to increase the Basic Law of Genius?

When revisiting the experience of the explosion of the Basic Law of Genius, Niu Jixin bluntly said: "Although this story type is more risky in the category of TV dramas, the first thing is to always seek novelty."

When observing the genre changes of TV series, Niu Jixin found a very interesting phenomenon. More themes in the market are the repeated regression of successful types. After a successful case appears, as long as it follows this path, the high probability will not be too bad.

However, if a certain drama reaches a certain height in subdivision type, it will form a basic disc, and it will be difficult for works to surpass it in a few years. If you want to create a new peak, innovation is inevitable.

In addition to innovation, incremental content in film and television works is equally important. In past interviews, Niu Jixin mentioned that the content layout strategy of the studio is half comedy and half incremental.

At that time, he just joined Iqiyi, and the platform has seen many explosions in the field of webcasting content and homemade content.

"My wish at that time was that my arrival would bring increments to the platform. However, this is an ideal setting. How to find increments is very challenging."

But hard work will pay off.

Since last year, Sesame Pod Studio has launched the Little Funny Theater, which covers such works as Washe Jianghu, Doctor is Doctor Two is Two, and Broken Elite. The genre involves themes such as ancient style and city, which broadens the comedy track.

The Basic Law of Genius and other works belong to the incremental content of the innovation track. In Niu Jixin’s view, the starting point of this drama is very anti-routine, and the key is to seek differences. Both the theme and narrative order are very different from the past dramas. "We adopted a brand-new story structure and did not rely on past experience, but walked out of the safety zone."

In the second half of this year, Niu Jixin’s Sesame Pod Studio intends to continue to promote the return of the iQiyi Little Funny Theater. At the same time, there is also a project in the field of ancient costumes, "Ning ‘an Dream", which will meet the audience soon, and the incremental part of the content will gradually become apparent with the advancement of the project.

In the last scene of the Basic Law of Genius, Lin Zhaoxi and Pei Zhi stood by the sea and decided to prove P=NP together. She said to Pei Zhi, "Persistent efforts, unremitting life, the end is there. Let’s just walk there." In fact, no matter in which world, facing life bravely is an eternal theme.

Do you know these hidden functions of iPhone fruit powder after so many years of use?

IOS operating system is famous for its closed ecology, but many people think that compared with Android system, its playability is not high, but old fruit fans may know that there are also many hidden tips. It’s time to make yours more useful. Let’s discuss it together.

Do you know the functions of the old apple powder that has been used for iPhone for so many years?

Set the number of SMS reminders

I believe that many friends have encountered such a situation and received a short message notification, but if you didn’t check it in time at that time, it will remind you again soon (Apple’s default repeated reminder interval is two minutes). For friends with obsessive-compulsive disorder, it is simply unbearable.

Especially for our domestic market, spam messages are flying all over the sky every day, and the function of repeating reminders plus "little red dot" will always bring unnecessary troubles.

Do you know the functions of the old apple powder that has been used for iPhone for so many years?

In fact, the function of SMS repeated reminder can be customized. We open Settings-Notification-Info, then find the option of Repeated Reminder and select Never. After setting, SMS will only be reminded once, and it will not be repeated. Of course, we can also customize the settings to repeat 3 times, 5 times or even 10 times, depending on our actual needs.

IPhone doesn’t need to clean the background. 

As you may know, because the background management mechanism of iOS and Android is different, iPhone does not need to clean up the background frequently in daily use. This point has been shared by Apple executives on foreign social platforms, because frequent reloading of applications will consume more power.

Do you know the functions of the old apple powder that has been used for iPhone for so many years?

However, there are many background programs, and multi-task switching is also very messy, so many people still choose to clean it up from time to time. However, unlike Android phones, the iPhone does not have the option of [], but it can also slide up and down with three fingers to quickly clean up the background. I believe many netizens have started hands-on testing at this time (don’t ask why, just install a camera).

Turn off background application, refresh, throttle and save electricity.

The background APPlication refresh function can be said to be both power consumption and traffic consumption. Even after we quit the application, the app can automatically update the received content in the background.

Do you know the functions of the old apple powder that has been used for iPhone for so many years?

Turning off this function will not have any impact on daily use. APP notifications can still be pushed normally, and it can also reduce power consumption and extend the battery life of the mobile phone. Because "background application refresh" is turned on by default on iPhone, we can find [Settings]-[General]-[Background application refresh] and select "Close".

Of course, if you think that opening is more in line with your own habits, you can also choose to update in WLAN without worrying about consuming traffic again.

Convenient calculator+professional calculator switch at any time.

Drop down the desktop and enter the formula in the search box. 

In daily life, if simple calculations are needed, we don’t need to use the calculator of the mobile phone in a hurry at this time, just drop down the desktop and enter the formula in the search box, and we can get the answer quickly.

Do you know the functions of the old apple powder that has been used for iPhone for so many years?

If you need complicated calculation, you can use the calculator function of iPhone, but you may find that the calculator of iPhone doesn’t have a backspace key. If you accidentally type it wrong in the middle, it will be troublesome to knock it again, but in fact, its backspace key only needs to slide left or right in the digital display area.

Do you know the functions of the old apple powder that has been used for iPhone for so many years?
Scientific calculator interface

In addition, iPhone actually has two scientific calculator interface modes. When dealing with some complicated calculations, we only need to unlock the vertical screen, and in the landscape mode, the calculator will automatically become a scientific calculator interface, which is simple and convenient.

Press the quick delete notification message again to replace one-click delete perfectly.

As long as the network is turned on, the iPhone starts to receive message notifications from various apps, and it won’t be long before the "notification center" interface is full, and deleting one by one is very troublesome. In fact, the "one-click delete" function is hidden.

Do you know the functions of the old apple powder that has been used for iPhone for so many years?

We just need to press the "x" symbol again, and after receiving the vibration feedback, we can clear all the notifications.

Avoid unnecessary message interference implicit push

Speaking of notification messages, in order to avoid being disturbed by useless messages every time, we can also choose to manage APP notifications by category. After receiving the APP message push, swipe the message to the left to see the "Manage" option, and then click it to select "Implicit Push".

In this way, in the future, the push of the APP message will only be displayed in the "notification center", and it will not disturb itself in the main interface, and each APP can be customized, so that important notifications will not be missed.

The speaker is not loud enough to switch the "late night" function.

When we listen to songs or watch movies on the iPhone, we always feel that the sound played on the speaker of the mobile phone is not loud enough. At this time, we only need to set an option and we will feel the difference immediately.

Do you know the functions of the old apple powder that has been used for iPhone for so many years?

Open [Settings]-[Music]-[Equalizer], and then select "Late Night" in the equalizer effect. When it is turned on, the sound will be louder. Friends who like to play music outside the speaker can try it.

Delete the location information of iPhone photos to protect personal privacy.

The last skill sharing, we still focus on privacy and security.

Many friends may not know that iPhone photos will record the geographical location at that time by default. When we share on various social platforms, we don’t know that our personal privacy has been stolen by malicious people. There are many similar examples, and I am afraid to think about it.

Do you know the functions of the old apple powder that has been used for iPhone for so many years?

In fact, the location information of photos can be turned off manually, but it is hidden deeply and most people don’t care. We open [Settings]-[Privacy]-[Location Service], find [Camera], and change "during the use of App" to "Never" to permanently erase the photo information, so that the photo will have no location information when it is taken again.

Write it at the end

These are the iPhone hiding skills shared today. Although they are not comprehensive enough, they are also practical enough. I believe they will help everyone. Having fun alone is not as good as having fun with others, and more friends are welcome to discuss in the comment area and summarize some useful iPhone tips ~

In 2021, the list of the top 100 banks in China was released, with 6 large banks and 20 rural commercial banks on the list.

Recently, China Banking Association launched the "Top 100 Banking Companies in China in 2021", which refers to Basel III and the relevant requirements of regulatory agencies, and ranks the top 100 banks in China in terms of their operating scale, profitability, operational efficiency and asset quality.

The total assets of the 100 banks listed this time accounted for 90.04% of the total assets of commercial banks, creating 97.15% of the net profit of commercial banks, including 6 large banks, 12 national joint-stock commercial banks, 61 city commercial banks, 20 rural commercial banks and 1 private bank.

The net core tier 1 capital is the deduction of core tier 1 capital, which has the strongest loss absorption ability and is the core index to measure the comprehensive strength and risk compensation ability of banks. The net core Tier 1 capital of listed banks continued to grow, totaling 16,702.706 billion yuan, up 8.02% year-on-year. At the same time, the ability of banks to replenish endogenous capital through profit retention declined slightly.

How can xingyue l’s car purchase guide be four or two thousand pounds?

China CDC released a new version of influenza vaccination guidelines.

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, September 6 (Reporter Gu Tiancheng) added new research evidence, updated relevant policies and measures for influenza prevention and control, and updated the types of influenza vaccines listed and used in China in 2023-2024 and vaccination suggestions … The reporter learned from the China CDC on the 6 th that the China Center for Disease Control and Prevention has recently issued the "Technical Guide for Influenza Vaccine Vaccination in China (2023-2024)", which provides guidance for better guiding influenza prevention and control and vaccine use in China.

Experts from the Infectious Diseases Management Office of China CDC said that influenza is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by influenza virus, which is seriously harmful to human health, and people are generally susceptible to influenza virus. High-risk groups such as pregnant women, infants, the elderly and patients with chronic diseases are more harmful after being infected with influenza, and influenza outbreaks are prone to occur in places where people gather, such as schools, kindergartens and nursing homes.

Vaccination against influenza every year is an effective means to prevent influenza and reduce the burden of influenza-related severe illness and death. The new version of the guide is clear, and it is recommended that all people who are ≥6 months old and have no vaccination contraindications should be vaccinated against influenza. Priority is given to the timely vaccination of key and high-risk groups including medical personnel, the elderly aged 60 and above, people suffering from one or more chronic diseases, children aged 6 to 59 months, their family members and caregivers.

According to the guidelines, in terms of vaccination times, it is recommended that children aged 6 months to 8 years old who have not been vaccinated with influenza vaccine before should be vaccinated with 2 doses at intervals of ≥4 weeks; In 2022-2023 or before, one dose or more of influenza vaccine was inoculated, and then one dose was inoculated; Children and adults aged 9 years and above need only be vaccinated once regardless of whether they have been vaccinated with influenza before. For live attenuated influenza virus vaccine, no matter whether it has been vaccinated with influenza vaccine or not, only one dose is given.

The guidelines also suggest that all localities should carry out vaccination as soon as possible after the vaccine supply is in place, and try to complete vaccination before the local influenza epidemic season. For people who can be vaccinated with different types or different manufacturers of vaccine products, the recipients or their guardians can voluntarily choose to vaccinate any kind of influenza vaccine, and there is no priority recommendation.

Because no one responded to the sharing, dad retired from the family group! Is your family group still lively?

  A few days ago, a topic of "My father retired from the family group because no one responded to sharing" attracted public attention and boarded a hot search.

  In Weibo Middle School, the blogger "@ Zack Zhang Ningningning" shared his father’s story, "My father announced his withdrawal from the family group! Contemporary family ties are broken. " The screenshot of the chat shows that Zhang Dad shares his daily life in a family group of 8 people — — I’ve been drinking for 28 years. But after a day, only my daughter replied.

  The next afternoon, Dad Zhang sent a message: A family member is a small group that shares emotions, sorrows and feelings. No one pays attention to praise communication. This group has no meaning. Subsequently, he withdrew from the group chat.

  This Weibo has aroused the emotional resonance of many netizens, and many netizens said that they had similar situations and experiences. "Even if you don’t respond to the sharing link, it is normal to want to quit the group if you share your life seriously but have never responded." A netizen said.

  On April 28, the Red Star journalist contacted this party, Zhang Dad. He told reporters, "This group was probably established around 2015. It was still very lively when it was first built. After 2019, it gradually cooled down. Sometimes I didn’t respond when I sent a message. I really felt a little lost."

  ▲ The blogger "@ Zack Zhang Ningningning" shared the story of his father quitting the family group.

  -1-

  "Dad left the family group."

  Dialogue I: I feel a little lost after quitting the group, but I also feel unprecedented relaxation.

  Dad Zhang is 53 years old and lives in Baotou, Inner Mongolia. He is engaged in management. The family group that appeared in Weibo was founded by his brother-in-law in about 2015. "There are three families in the group, my wife, my brother and sister. We have a very good relationship in real life and often make phone calls and voice calls. Later, family groups were established with the aim of strengthening their ties and facilitating communication. "

  For him, the most lively time in the group was three years after the group was founded. "At that time, people would chat interactively every day, say good morning to each other in the morning, and share their work and life today, so I think it is a good way to build a family group." Dad Zhang said.

  After the excitement, it was silent. I don’t know when, most of the relatives in the group are in a state of "diving".

  Dad Zhang said: "In the past, my wife often sent some anti-fraud videos to recommend to everyone, but after 2019, the group suddenly became deserted, and few people sent messages. We shared interesting things and good-looking content, except for my daughter. Few people replied."

  "I sent a message in the group, and I will definitely look forward to everyone’s response. In my opinion, this is the meaning of family groups. If I sincerely share it but no one replies, my heart will definitely be lost, not to mention the content we share is more meaningful. " Last Sunday, Dad Zhang shared a tweet in the group that "the public security department shot 17 anti-fraud videos in half a year to accurately expose fraud tricks" and expressed the hope that everyone would take the time to watch the videos to prevent fraud. However, after posting this tweet, no one replied. "I was really sad to open the group chat many times but found no reply." Until April 25, a similar situation appeared again, when he chose to quit the group in a rage.

  ▲ Last Sunday, Zhang Dad shared an anti-fraud tweet in the group but no one responded.

  However, Dad Zhang also expressed his understanding of the "coldness" of the family group. "After quitting the group, some relatives talked to me privately to explain, saying that they were really busy, so they didn’t respond. Now everyone’s work pressure is relatively high, relatives and children of the same generation are very busy at work, and everyone is drifting away because of differences in life, work and experience. "

  Dad Zhang said frankly: "After quitting the group, I feel more lost in my heart, and at the same time I feel more relaxed than ever, because I don’t have to stare at the group chat all the time and care about whether someone replies to me." In this regard, Dad Zhang said that after leaving the group, he will also use other ways to maintain his feelings with his family. "Our emotional foundation is still there, but in the future, it will be more point-to-point contact, such as talking privately with his brother-in-law, which will not affect the work and life of others."

  Is your family group still lively?

  Reporter’s investigation: "lively" is getting farther and farther, and "cold and cheerless" is more common

  With the rapid development of the Internet and social platforms, a number of WeChat groups based on kinship have been established. In 2018, a survey of 2005 respondents conducted by China Youth Daily Social Survey Center showed that 93.8% of the respondents joined the family WeChat group.

  Red Star journalists interviewed 10 Chengdu citizens randomly on the street, among which 8 citizens joined the family group and 2 did not, while 8 citizens who joined the family WeChat group all said that "there is little chat in the group except red envelopes" and "chatting only when something happens, and it is usually very deserted". Ms. Chen, a 27-year-old citizen, told reporters, "I have nothing in common with them (relatives in the family group). I have a young group, all of whom are little sisters. I like to chat with them."

  "Zhang Dad quit the group" caused emotional resonance among many netizens, while many netizens commented that they had similar situations and experiences. "The reporter browsed related topics and found that the family group chat shared by netizens includes but is not limited to these characteristics: the family group with one family as the unit has a high chat frequency, and the group with multiple families often has a low chat frequency; Older people chat more, younger people chat less, and younger people often play the role of echoing and cheering; The content of chatting in the family group is mainly rumors, anti-fraud videos and "chicken soup for the soul".

  ▲ Netizens said that the chat content in the family group is mainly based on rumors, anti-fraud videos and "chicken soup for the soul".

  At the same time, netizens also commented on many reasons why they don’t chat in family groups. Some people say that dealing with work every day is already a headache, and I really don’t want to reply in the family group after work; Some people say that the title party’s health knowledge and international events shared by the elderly in the group make people have no desire to reply; Some people also say that they are simply not good at expressing themselves and don’t want to speak in family groups, but their relationship with relatives and friends in real life is still very good … …

  ▲ User comments

  Wechat family group has built a family cultural space in social media, but in fact, more and more people find that family group is not as "lively" as expected, and it has not achieved the expected function of providing contact and interaction platform for relatives in different living spaces.

  Similar to Zhang’s father’s experience, Zhang Chenchen, who was born in Shandong in 1996, showed reporters a screenshot of the date of a family group’s chat. Her family group only had people chatting for a few days every month, and the last chat was on February 26th, 2021, and the news record stayed on the content of her aunt @ her mother’s dinner.

  ▲ Family group chat shared by Zhang Chenchen.

  "Before 2019, the link between us and my uncle’s family was weak and the relationship was not good. Later, I thought that there was still a place where we could talk together, so I built a family group." Zhang Chenchen said that at first, families would often share their lives, send out red envelopes and take photos in groups, and sometimes they would have dinner through family groups, but the excitement would only last until May 2020.

  In Gao Cen’s thirties, family group is just a "cyber space" for Chinese New Year entertainment. "There are 25 people in the group (our family). The news is generally concentrated in the few days of the New Year, sending red envelopes and sending New Year videos. Sometimes there are dozens of messages a day, which is particularly lively." But usually, "cold and cheerless" is more of a state.

  ▲ The family group chat records shared by Gao Cen, the news is generally concentrated in the days of the New Year.

  Gao Cen is also reluctant to send messages in the group at ordinary times. "I’m very busy at work, and I’m already very tired during the day. When I go home at night, I sometimes see messages from my uncles, all of which are about grabbing tickets and preventing fraud. I can only reply ‘ Roger that ’ I don’t know what else to talk about. Moreover, when I came out to work, to tell the truth, I rarely thought of my relatives in my hometown. It is impossible to chat on my own initiative, and there are few common topics. If we don’t reply, the elders will rarely send messages. "

  For her, she doesn’t expect to gain emotional value in the family group, and her daily emotional sharing has another way. "I prefer to chat with friends and girlfriends. There are many topics. Every day in the group, the news is ‘ 99+’ . Many people in the family group are elders. They don’t use WeChat very much. If there is an urgent need to contact, they will call directly. "

  Among the interviewees interviewed by Red Star journalists, the phenomenon of "cold and cheerless" of family groups is almost common. After the initial "hot period" of building groups, most groups will gradually cool down, and their speeches and discussions will gradually decrease, and even eventually become silent.

  "This may have something to do with the harmony and personality of family members." Respondent Xiao Bai is a cheerful person. In her family, most of her relatives are lively people. "Everyone loves to express and communicate, and they usually walk close. As long as one person speaks in the group, everyone will come out soon. Of course, there are quite a lot of friends around me, and the family group is very weak. "

  "I feel that the relationship is getting farther away."

  The Spread of "Weak Relationship" Offline in the Network

  Watching the family group cool down, Zhang Chenchen felt that it was inevitable that the family group would become cold and cheerless. "The original intention of building a group is to enhance mutual affection. Later, we found that there are still many contradictions in life, and the family will be indifferent, so we can’t use WeChat group ‘ Repair ’ Even chatting is just superficial, so this group is gradually falling apart, and I completely forgot it. "

  For Zhang Shu in Guilin, Guangxi, the "showing off" and "comparing" of relatives in the group from time to time has become an important reason for him to "shield" his family group. "Because the uncle’s family is superior, he often shows off what kind of good job his son has found in the group, more than money and children. Sometimes we don’t know how to reply to him, and occasionally mentioning our own affairs will be strongly taught by him, so junior students generally don’t speak in the group."

  Zhang Shu said that if it weren’t for the dissuasion of his family, he might have retired from the group long ago. In their view, everyone is a relative. "Don’t be too embarrassed."

  ▲ Family group chat records shared by Zhang Shu.

  The reporter found that in these two family groups, the WeChat family group was expected to "repair the relationship". However, in real life, the differences in values between families and trivial life contradictions led to the alienation of family relationships, and the family group, as an extension of family relationships, was gradually deserted.

  Work group, classmate group, meal partner group … … Family group seems to be submerged in the waves of WeChat group chat, which has become the one that is ignored, but in fact, family group provides a convenient and fast communication platform for relatives far away from the ends of the earth and acts as a network link to contact family.

  Duan Wenjie, vice president of Chengdu Association for the Promotion of Barrier-free Environment and professor of the Department of Social Work of East China University of Science and Technology, told the reporter that relatives rarely communicate in family groups. From the perspective of sociology, this phenomenon actually reflects the dispersion of the strong and weak relationship formed between people from the real society to the network society.

  "Specifically, in the real society, due to the long distance between many family members and the lack of intersection in daily life, family feelings are relatively distant and intimacy is insufficient, which is the so-called ‘ A distant relative is better than a close neighbor ’ When encountering difficulties, family members who are far apart cannot provide timely help or provide opportunities for interaction. "

  ▲ Netizens said that family groups with their own families have a high frequency of chatting.

  Duan Wenjie said that this has also become one of the reasons for the formation of weak relationships among family members. "Even if the spatial distance can be narrowed on the Internet, the emotional distance still exists, and it is often shared in the group but no one responds. In fact, it is the spread of weak relationships in the real society in the network."

  "Although there are many family groups today, it is very deserted within the group. This phenomenon reflects that with the rapid development of modern society and the explosion of information in the Internet age, everyone’s cognitive level is highly diversified and stratified. Therefore, even in their own family circle, many people still feel ‘ We can’t talk together ’ 。” Analysis of Zhang Chengfeng, a senior family lawyer of Sichuan Mingju Law Firm.

  In her view, the family is the epitome of society, and the "stratification" in the family is mainly manifested in the following aspects.

  "The first is the diversification of wealth levels. For example, a family may include the middle class, high net worth people and ordinary people, and the span is very large. Due to the great gap between living habits and cognition caused by family economic conditions, it is also difficult to avoid misunderstandings. For example, ordinary life sharing may be considered as showing off. " Zhang Chengfeng said.

  "At the same time, because everyone’s growth environment, educational background and professional background are different, they all live in their own circles and form different living habits, behavior patterns and language communication systems. These factors have cast a natural ‘ Barrier ’ 。” According to Zhang Chengfeng, the complexity of this gap on the cognitive level is far greater than others. For example, some people pay attention to the short and trivial parents, while others are more concerned about the international situation. "I don’t care about what you care about, and you don’t care about what I care about. The topics and hobbies between each other are very different, and slowly they become speechless."

  How to warm up family relationships?

  Expert: We can start with discussing common topics, family memory and providing emotional support.

  So how to use the Internet as a "sharp weapon" to enhance the affection between relatives? Zhang Chengfeng said that improvements can be made in the following aspects.

  "In the face of family affection, we can give full play to our subjective initiative and actively promote and discuss common family issues, such as providing for the elderly, the marriage of the younger generation, family dinners on holidays, etc., to improve the frequency of communication between relatives."

  She took Zhang Shu, Guilin, Guangxi as an example to analyze. Uncle Zhang Shu’s superior family background and showing off and comparing in the group from time to time made him feel uncomfortable, so this family group was not lively. "But a family group is made up of many people. If the affection is indifferent, the reason is that the two sides have not managed a good relationship together. At this time, what we have to do is to understand, tolerate and accept, actively promote the emotional link between each other, and at the same time promote the development of family relations in a more benign direction. "

  At the same time, she also stressed that we should not expect too much from family groups. "We need to uphold ‘ Seeking common ground while reserving differences ’ Attitude. Despite the natural link of blood relationship, it is actually very difficult for two people in the family to achieve a high degree of spiritual harmony and nourish each other. Therefore, it is necessary for relatives to talk more about common topics and reduce or avoid conflicts caused by different opinions and viewpoints. "

  In Duan Wenjie’s view, the "weak relationship" between family members can be transformed into "strong relationship" by adopting different forms, enhancing the frequency of interaction with family members, strengthening emotional ties, increasing intimacy and increasing interest exchange.

  "For example, sharing valuable content in a family group, discussing topics that can involve other group members, and participating in some interactive games or activities together can enhance the frequency of interaction with family members." Duan Wenjie emphasized that we can also discuss common memories, share the living conditions of the elderly at home, actively respond to others’ sharing, positively praise and comment on family members’ circle of friends, video chat, etc., which can strengthen emotional ties and intimacy.

  On the other hand, we can also take the initiative to understand the daily life of family members, understand their troubles and difficulties and provide help as much as we can, which is helpful to establish mutually beneficial family relations.

  "Of course, we can also learn some communication skills to promote communication with family members and provide good emotional and social support for each other." In conclusion, Duan Wenjie believes that under the joint management of family members, we can make full use of the channel of Internet and the platform of WeChat family group, and turn the "cold and distant weak relationship" into a "warm and loving strong relationship".

  In the eyes of Fan Ping, a researcher at the Institute of Sociology of China Academy of Social Sciences, family groups are actually "blood groups", not necessarily "common life groups" or "interest groups", so the sense of link between them will be weak.

  "If you want to promote the close connection between family groups, living together is the key. In addition to the ties of consanguinity, families can also establish corresponding social ties besides consanguinity, such as taking care of each other at work and generating economic ties, as the saying goes ‘ Eat in a pot ’ 。” At the same time, we need to pay attention to the scale boundary between family relationship and personal life. Too close family relationship may also bring some "sweet" burdens.

1905 movie rising posture: these 10 details of Dune 2 are so shocking!


Special feature of 1905 film network Three years later, the screen epic hit again!


The film broke through $100 million in six days in North America, and quickly surpassed the total box office of the first film in North America in the first week. After landing in the mainland cinema, Douban scored 8.2, setting the third highest score for the director in the mainland, and its reputation was bursting.


Magnificent classical adventure narrative and top-notch audio-visual production of Hollywood blockbusters, Dune 2 is a movie that truly belongs to the cinema. As the director said, "Dune 2 is all about making the audience get the most shocking viewing effect with the cooperation of the big screen and sound effects, so as to impress them!"


The second part tries to make the audience who haven’t seen the first part understand it basically. The story begins a few hours after the end of the first part. Paul and his mother Jessica blend into the freeman tribe and join hands with them to fight back. On the road of revenge, Paul fell in love with Cheney, but he also foresaw a terrible future and fell into a choice.


The length of 166 minutes, many characters and complicated clues, how to better understand Dune 2? The 1905 movie network specially sorted out the details of 10 knowledge points to help everyone go deep into the dune universe and better understand this film.



(Note: The following contains spoilers, so it is recommended to read them after watching the movie.)


From "dream" to "spice"


The opening words before the first feature film of Dune are: "Dreams are messages from the deep". "Dune 2" also continued the opening way: "Who controls the spice will control the universe" (Power over spice is power over all). These two sentences reflect the different themes of the two films.


The key word of the first film is "dream". Paul’s broken dreams appear repeatedly in the film, and his potential consciousness of predicting the future pushes him to become a "chosen son".


The key word of the second part is "spice". In the world of sand dunes, spices are the most important rare resources, which can help to prolong life, develop the ability of prediction, analysis and calculation, and master the technology of interstellar travel, etc. However, spices are only produced on the planet Elacos, which has become a battleground for all families.



Therefore, the opening remarks of the second part point to the theme of this film, which is about how Paul grew up and seized imperial power.


Regarding the change of the theme before and after, director Villeneuve explained: "In the first movie, we followed Paul to discover a world, which was more meditative, more meditative and more in contact with nature. In the second movie, he became a man, a guerrilla fighter who fell in love and wanted to avenge his father. This is more like an action movie. "


What is Paul thinking?


In Villeneuve’s view, Paul in Dune 2 became a "dark and powerful savior."


He was recognized by freeman people, killed Baron Harkonan in revenge for his father, and won the throne from the emperor, thus completing a wonderful "Revenge of the Prince".


An interesting echo is that in the first part of Dune, the Virgin Helen used "voice control" to make Paul kneel down, and at the end of the second part, Paul scolded the Virgin Helen with "voice control" skills and humiliated her on the spot. This revenge detail points out the transfer and replacement of power.



At the same time, the prophecy tells Paul that the coming jihad will bring chaos and disaster to freeman people, and he faces a moral dilemma. In fact, Paul doesn’t want to be a ruler or be regarded as a savior, but the desire and temptation of revenge drove him into prophecy, and perhaps he also wanted to reverse prophecy, which is his life tragedy and dilemma.


In the second novel of Dune series, it is reflected that Frank Herbert, the author, does not want to portray Paul as a hero who successfully retaliates, but rather wants to tell the cautionary story that the savior was caught in the temptation of imperialism. Director Villeneuve integrated this into Paul in Dune 2 in advance.


Why did Paul have such a huge psychological change? His inner world needs more excavation and explanation in the third part to form a more complete arc of characters.


"Lissan Al Gheb"


Freeman people keep shouting "Lisan Al-Gabe", which means "the voice from the sky". This is their name for the savior. I believe Lisan Al-Gabe will lead his people into a paradise full of oases.


The legend of Lissan Al-Gabe is actually a superstition spread by the sisters of Beni Jessilit. Steiger, the leader of freeman people, also hoped that Paul was a "chosen man" and could lead his people to get rid of oppression and be free. He also made use of religious belief to make freeman people worship Paul crazily, and the means taken by the film to him was ironic with a certain black humor.



The truth about sorority


The Sisterhood of Benny Jessilit unveiled the mystery in Dune 2.


They try to guide the fate of human beings, and through high-quality gene mating from generation to generation, they produce a superman savior with strong predictive ability — — Que Satz Jadraque. Sisterhood is hidden behind the scenes and skillfully manipulates political operations.


The sorority originally planned to let Lady Jessica give birth to a daughter and marry Fred Rosa Harkonan to give birth to a prophet. However, Mrs. Jessica violated the century-old plan of the sorority and gave birth to her son Paul.


After turning herself into a virgin, Lady Jessica used her strength to help Paul become the Lisan Al Gabe in freeman, the prophet Que Satz Jadraque and the emperor of the empire. She and Helen, the top lady of the sorority, are completely on the opposite side.



Mrs. Margo, a new sorority member, approached Fred with the instructions of the Virgin Helen and tried to combine with his genes, thus ensuring that even if Paul was out of control, they could continue their new excellent blood line.


Another emerging character, Princess Ilerang, is the daughter of Emperor Padisha and a disciple of the Virgin Helen. She participated in this political game in order to keep her family in power.



The biggest adaptation of Cheney


Cheney is a very large adaptation of Dune 2 compared with the original work.


In the novel, she is a obedient and silent wife of Paul, who gives birth to a child soon, but unfortunately dies. In the movie, she is the embodiment of strong, independent and free women’s power, and she is not carried away by power and extreme fanaticism.


With Paul’s sincere integration into the life of freeman people, Cheney gradually fell in love with him, but gradually hated everything behind him.


Cheney doesn’t believe in Lady Jessica’s "mental brainwashing" of freeman people, and she doesn’t understand the drama of Paul drinking the water of life and performing "suspended animation" with Jessica. She doesn’t accept Paul’s leading freeman people to wage war as a savior, and she hates these machinations.



The duel between Paul and Fidel is actually a game of mixed power and emotion. Paul not only wants to seize the imperial power, but also takes his life to keep Cheney’s reluctance and love in the duel. But Cheney in the movie is not Cheney in the novel, and she finally turns away.


The first part of Dune begins with Cheney’s narration, and Dune 2 observes Paul’s loss through Cheney’s perspective, and the last scene returns to Cheney. As the screenwriter said, "Cheney represents the freedom of freeman people — — It is not only the freedom to resist colonial rule, but also the freedom to resist prophecy. "


In front of Paul, who obeys fate, and the sisterhood, who manipulates fertility and political games, Cheney is more contemporary and more advanced in female consciousness.



A glimpse of Arya


Aria, Paul’s sister, has only one shot in the movie, but it creates a very surprising and mysterious effect.


Because Mrs Jessica drank the water of life when she was pregnant, she got all the memories of her ancestors and became a real virgin, and Aria in her womb also inherited this powerful force.


In the novel, Aria was born before Paul launched the revenge war, and even she personally killed her "grandfather" Baron Harkonan, instead of Paul in the movie.


In Dune 2, Aria mainly appears as a fetus and talks with Jessica across the abdomen. This visual design can be reminiscent of director Villeneuve’s favorite sci-fi movie ending in the image of a cosmic baby, which may be a reference to pay tribute.



The most complicated scene: Paul riding a worm.


Dune 2 is more complex and grand than the first film Dune. According to patrice Ouimet, the scenery is 40% more than the previous film. And instead of using the first set, it was all redesigned in the desert.


In the film, the imperial garden of Emperor Paddy was set in the Briant family cemetery, which is a masterpiece of Italian architect carlo scarpa and a poetic garden built for the dead. Shooting the emperor’s scenes in the cemetery may indicate the failure of his abdication.


The Briant family never let the crew shoot, even refused the request, but this time it made an exception for Dune 2.


Paul riding a worm is the most complicated scene in the whole film. In the interview, I deeply remember that this is "the 62nd scene, the passage of the worm, which took three months to shoot."



Under Steiger’s guidance and training, Paul successfully harnessed the giant worm, which was like an adult ceremony, showing the dominant power of the "chosen son", and he gradually gained the recognition of freeman people.


Interestingly, behind the scenes, director Villeneuve also demonstrated how to ride a worm, and all the actors who performed riding a worm in the film went to learn from him in advance. Villeneuve said that the last thing he wants to compromise and restore is the scene of riding a worm. "It is very experimental and much more complicated than the paragraphs I have taken in the past."


A unique black-and-white image


The appearance of the villain Fidel Rosa Harkonan and the paragraphs of the arena fighting adopt a very unique black and white image style.


This eerie black-and-white picture highlights the horrible totalitarian atmosphere of the Harkonan family. Translucent skin and deep eyes also highlight the fierce and morbid image of Fidel, which is creepy.



Villeneuve and Greig Fraser, the director of photography, had a lot of discussions about the light source design of the main star of Jadi in Harkonan, and they decided to shoot with the modified infrared camera to create a very surreal black-and-white effect.


On the dark planet Jedi, light does not exist in a way that we can perceive. A visible light cutting filter is added in front of the lens, and an infrared cutting filter is taken out from the camera, so what the camera sees is infrared.


Villeneuve said that the fascist and totalitarian environment of Harkonan gave them the opportunity to create this visual image, which he described as "like an old fascist film of World War II."



Faster rhythm than the first one.


Compared with the first part of Dune, the narrative rhythm of Dune 2 is obviously accelerated.


Editing director Joe Walker won the Oscar for best editing with Dune, and Dune 2 was his fifth collaboration with Villeneuve. He said that the most talked about this time is how to shoot Dune 2 faster and cut it faster.


In addition to making the second film closer to the setting and imagination of "action movie", Villeneuve also said in the interview that he wanted to create motivation in this story, put pressure on Paul and create an internal rhythm in the tense atmosphere of the film.



Especially after Paul drank the water of life and decided to become the spiritual leader of freeman people to launch a war, he could feel the rhythm of each scene getting faster and faster, and he also felt the great pressure on Paul. Villeneuve said, "I need to compress time to create this pressure."


Ongoing soundtrack


"When the first credits appeared, I looked at the book and found that we only got to page 156! Haven’t really started yet … "


The composer said that many of the soundtracks of Dune 2 were written by him at the end of the first part of Dune, and after the first part was filmed, he continued to create music for Dune Universe.


Following the main theme of the first book Dune, the second book can clearly hear Hans Zimmer’s different styles of music for freeman people’s world, Harkonan’s world, the female voice of Benny Jeslitt’s sisterhood, and the love melody of Paul and Cheney. Villeneuve said that he cried the first time he heard the love theme song of Paul and Cheney.


On the second day of filming Dune 2, Villeneuve put Dune 2: Dune Messiah, his second novel, on Hans Zimmer’s desk, indicating that he would continue to compose the music for Dune 3.



From an early age, there are still many unknown suspense in predicting Dune 3 — —


Will Princess Illang, who married Paul, have a plot to assassinate him? Will Mrs. Margot, who made a short appearance, be pregnant with Fred Rosa’s child? Will Duncan, the strongest soldier of the Cui Di family, come back from the dead? What new story line will Cheney leave Paul completely different from the original? How strong will Aria be when she grows up? What kind of messiah dilemma will Paul face? ……


"Dune 2" has more details worthy of the audience to brush and taste, and I hope that "Dune 3" can be filmed as soon as possible and come as soon as possible!
