US Vice President Harris was in a car accident on his way to work: Is the Secret Service still "reliable"?

According to the latest report on the 6th, US Vice President Harris suffered a car accident on his way to work on Monday, but he was not injured. However, this incident worried both Director united states secret service and the Vice President, and once again triggered doubts about the Secret Service.
According to two people familiar with the matter, a motorcade carrying Harris to work had a bicycle accident on a closed road in Washington on Monday morning local time. An SUV driven by Agent united states secret service drove Harris into the curb of a tunnel in the city center. Because the accident caused the vehicle to need to change tires, Secret Service agents had to transfer Harris to another car in the convoy before finally sending her to the White House safely.
According to reports, united states secret service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said that the cause of the accident was that the driver swerved excessively while driving.
U.S. Vice President Harris
Unexplained accident
The head of the Secret Service was "kept in the dark" for the first time.
However, because the agents in charge of driving the president and vice president’s vehicles have received high-level training, accidents in routine work like this have puzzled many Secret Service personnel, even Harris himself.
According to the report, the Secret Service personnel did not mention the key details of the incident in the official email that reported the delay of Harris Team to their superiors. The agency’s protection intelligence department only wrote in the report that during the scheduled trip to the White House, the "mechanical failure" of the lead car forced the agent to transfer Harris to another car.
A person familiar with the matter said that it was not until Monday afternoon that Secret Service Director Kim Chettle received a message from other agents, saying that the email did not accurately convey the truth. In fact, many other Secret Service agents around Harris and the White House know that Harris’s driver hit the sidewalk of the tunnel.
Guglielmi confirmed the news, saying that the agents did not disclose all the details of the problems in the vice president’s motorcade in the formal written warning at first, but later reported the situation to their superiors in person. He explained: "The initial radio communication showed that this was a mechanical failure. After the protection operation was completed, the leadership was verbally updated with additional relevant facts, that is, the vehicle hit the curb. "
A witness photographed Harris’ motorcade stuck at the tunnel entrance.
There are many "black history"
The accident once again triggered public concern about the Secret Service.
It is reported that because united states secret service has a "long and troublesome history" in covering up his mistakes and misconduct, the accident has once again aroused people’s concerns about the agency. An official of the Secret Service revealed that Kim Chettle had told people around her that she was uneasy about the inaccuracy of the Harris accident warning, and "I was relieved when I learned more comprehensive information later that day."
According to the report, united states secret service’s top officials and managers often rely on the "presidential security cloak" to cover up their weaknesses and failures. In 2011, there was a shooting incident in the White House. Under the "misleading" of the Secret Service, the American public and the first family thought that "this is a group of gang members shooting at each other". But in fact, the real information obtained by the Secret Service is that the gunman tried to kill the then US President Barack Obama.
In 2014, a veteran with mental problems successfully jumped over the fence and broke into the White House. The Secret Service tried to cover up his mistakes and provided wrong information. According to the report of the Secret Service, the man was unarmed, but in fact he was armed. The report also claimed that the man was detained by Secret Service personnel at the main entrance of the White House, but in fact he broke into the main building of the White House after subduing a Secret Service official, and was finally caught in the East Wing of the White House.
In 2015, the Secret Service was caught in a public opinion dispute because of the bomb investigation that disturbed the White House. According to reports, after drinking all night, the top agent in charge of White House security affairs and another senior executive drove into the White House, crossed the cordon and entered a scene where a bomb investigation was going on. Subsequently, the vehicle driven by the two men hit a temporary roadblock and stopped directly next to the suspicious bomb package.
According to reports, although dozens of secret service staff knew about it, no one reported it to the director at that time. Five days after the incident, Joseph Clancy, then director of the Secret Service, learned about the safety accident from a former agent and friend.

Rush to the hot search! 219 million yuan in the men’s two-color ball, and 5 million yuan in donation!

  What, someone won the lottery and donated 5 million?

  # 219 million in the men’s two-color ball donated 5 million #

  Chong chong re sou

  As we all know, under normal circumstances, the lottery prize is capped at 5 million, and just recently, someone actually donated a "first prize" for public welfare! Such a big deal is Mr. Li, a lucky man in Guangxi who just took away "two small goals" on the morning of October 24.

  Things should start with the lottery of China Welfare Lottery No.2022120 on the evening of October 20th. In the current period, there were 43 first prizes in the country, with a single prize of more than 5.48 million yuan, of which Guangxi won 40 bets! Moreover, the first prizes of these 40 bets are from betting station No.45010316 and betting station No.45016072 in Litang Town, Binyang County, Guangxi Province, with 20 bets in each station, and the betting method is single bet and 20 times bet! In other words, the 40-note prize belongs to two lottery tickets, and each lottery ticket only costs 40 yuan, winning 109.7 million yuan respectively! Both betting stations are located in Litang Town Department Store, Binyang County.

  According to past experience, the same betting method, betting station in the same place and winning the grand prize in the same period will often be won by the same person. For example, the 565 million double-color ball that we won in Xinchang, Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province was bought by the lucky ones at two betting stations. This prize, which ranks second in the lottery history of China, was awarded in the No.11086 issue of the two-color ball on the evening of July 26th, 2011. The prize of 5.14 million with 110 bets was won in Zhejiang, which came from three lottery tickets sold by two betting sites in Xinchang County, Zhejiang Province. Two of the lottery tickets selected two bets with the same number and made 25 times bets respectively. The ticketing time was about 1: 50 pm on the day of the lottery, only 34 seconds apart, and the serial numbers were connected. In addition, there are 10 first prizes from another Fucai betting station about 1 km away. The winning lottery will bet 10 times on the number of one note, and the ticketing time will be 5: 30 pm on the same day. Finally, the grand prize winner appeared to redeem the prize, confirming that all three tickets were from one person, and won a total of 565 million grand prizes for the two-color ball!

  As expected, the first prize of Guangxi’s 40 notes was also won by one person. On the morning of October 24th, Mr. Li received a pre-tax cash check of 219 million yuan from Lan Ting, secretary and director of the General Party Branch of Guangxi Welfare Lottery Distribution Center, and donated 5 million yuan on the spot to entrust Guangxi Welfare Lottery Center for public welfare.

  Mr. Li is a big fan of welfare lottery. More than ten years ago, he began to buy Fucai two-color ball lottery tickets. After four or five years, he didn’t win the grand prize. So Mr. Li considered changing a betting method and selected a group of numbers that were pleasing to the eye to start chasing the number. However, "most of them didn’t win, and occasionally they won dozens of pieces." Because of his hobbies and family members’ no objection, Mr. Li also had a normal heart about not winning the prize. "The money invested is acceptable, mainly to buy a hope."

  On October 20th, he passed a lottery betting station in Litang Department Store, Binyang County, Guangxi, and bought three lottery tickets in 160 yuan. At that time, Mr. Li played a 20-fold lottery ticket on a betting machine in the betting station. Before long, he felt that this group of numbers was very "heart-warming". When he went forward to play the ticket, the salesman was busy helping another lottery buyer to redeem the instant lottery prize, so another salesman helped him to play the same group of 20-fold lottery tickets on another betting machine in the station. Unexpectedly, these two lottery tickets actually won 109.7 million yuan each! Mr. Li said that this group of numbers, that is, the multiples bought in the last three periods, were more than expected to be so lucky. In addition, he also chose a "6+2" small double-color ball lottery, and won the 100 yuan Prize.

  On the evening of October 20, Mr. Li went to sleep before the current two-color ball lottery. It was not until the morning of the 21st that he brushed his mobile phone that he realized that Litang Town had won the first prize of 40 times the two-color ball. At first glance, it was the group number that he had kept for many years! I stayed up all night that day. On the morning of the 22nd, Mr. Li took a bus to Nanning and found a hotel to stay. "They are all sleeping in the hotel, afraid to go out and lose the lottery." He said.

  Unlike most grand prize winners, Mr. Li was very calm after winning the prize. "I didn’t tell my wife and children that they were too bloated and wouldn’t work or work hard in the future." At present, Mr. Li’s family and friends don’t know that he won the grand prize. As for the use of this bonus, Mr. Li said that he hasn’t thought about it yet, and he will slowly plan how to use it. After visiting Guangxi Welfare Lottery Culture Exhibition Hall, Mr. Li deeply realized that part of the funds for purchasing lottery tickets were used for public welfare undertakings such as "helping the elderly, helping the disabled, saving the orphans and helping the poor", so he decided to donate 5 million yuan from the prize money and entrust Guangxi Welfare Lottery Center for public welfare undertakings.

Aim for the first phalanx in the country! The future of Hebei rugby can be expected.

On September 24th, China team player Liao Jiuli (second from right) was in the competition. Xinhua News Agency reporter Ren Zhenglai photo
On October 3rd, Liao Jiuli rushed to the China Women’s Rugby Team to report for duty, and began a new stage of training to prepare for the women’s rugby qualifying tournament for the Paris Olympic Games at the end of this year. This young rugby player trained in our province won the women’s rugby sevens gold medal with his teammates at the Hangzhou Asian Games.
Nevertheless, according to Tang Yu, director of the Small Ball Sports Center of the Provincial Sports Bureau, rugby is still in its infancy in our province. As a new sport, the popularity of rugby in our province is not high at present, and there is still much room for development.
It is understood that the provincial men’s rugby team was established in 2011, and this team entered the finals of the National Games for the first time in 2017. In 2015, the provincial women’s football team was established, and the results came from behind. After winning the fifth place in the National Games in 2021, it won the championship in the national rugby sevens championship in 2022.
The formation of provincial teams and their successive achievements have promoted the continuous development of rugby in our province. Especially after the annual provincial rugby championship and provincial rugby championship were held in 2015, some districts and cities in our province, such as Baoding, Shijiazhuang, Handan, Tangshan, Qinhuangdao and Cangzhou, have also set up municipal rugby teams. Baoding, Shijiazhuang, Handan, Qinhuangdao and Tangshan teamed up to participate in all four events in the youth football competition held in the 16th provincial sports meeting this year.
Teenagers are the new force in football. In recent years, some schools in our province have also begun to actively promote the popularization of rugby. At present, more than 10 schools, including Baoding No.7 Middle School, Shijiazhuang No.13 Middle School, Handan Weixian No.1 Middle School, Tangshan Luannan No.4 Middle School, Qinhuangdao Funing No.4 Middle School, Xingtai Shahe No.2 Middle School and Langfang Xianghe No.1 Middle School, carry out rugby training all the year round, and have made their mark in some provincial and national competitions.
"But overall, there are still not many football reserve talents in our province." Tang Yu introduced that at present, there are only more than 800 registered rugby players in our province. Due to the lack of reserve talents and coaches, the provincial women’s football team has only 18 players, which has not yet reached the normal number of players in the same level of football teams in China. Moreover, the provincial football team has not yet established an echelon, which is not conducive to the long-term development of the sport.
How to accelerate the development of rugby in our province?
"Without Bole, there will be no swift horse. How can you choose a good seedling without a good coach?" Tang Yu introduced that even the provincial teams have long faced the problem of lack of coaches because of the small number of domestic football coaches. At present, most grass-roots football coaches in our province are "half-way monks". In addition, the selection of rugby sports is not wide and the requirements for athletes’ various qualities are high, so grass-roots coaches are easy to miss good seeds when selecting materials. In addition, the number of colleges and universities recruiting rugby special students in China is relatively small, which also discourages many students who intend to engage in this sport.
"The development of rugby in China is relatively late, and there are currently less than 10 provinces that carry out rugby all the year round, which has somewhat affected the development of rugby in our province, but it is also an opportunity." Tang Yu said.
Rugby was confirmed to return to the Olympic stage in 2009, and China established the national rugby team in 2013. In 2021, the China women’s rugby team won the seventh place at the Tokyo Olympic Games, which was the first time that the China rugby team made its debut at the Olympic Games.
In order to make a difference in this Olympic project, our province has made efforts to break the bottleneck of development in recent years.
Committed to solving the problem of "who will teach", our province has vigorously carried out coach training and introduced a foreign teacher for the provincial women’s football team. "An important purpose of inviting foreign teachers is to hope that provincial athletes can learn better coaching experience, and it is fundamental to build our own team of coaches." Tang Yu said that at present, several old players in the provincial team have begun to transform into coaches. After the National Games in 2025, the provincial team will also have a group of old players retired, which is expected to become the coaches of the provincial team and the municipal team.
Focusing on strengthening the leadership of the event, our province has continuously improved the rugby tournament system. At present, the Provincial Games, the Provincial Rugby Championship and the Provincial Rugby Championship have two groups, A and B, which are aimed at high school and junior high school athletes respectively. Starting from next year, a group C under the age of 12 will be added to the provincial competitions, so that primary school students can also participate.
The China Women’s Rugby Team won the gold medal in the Hangzhou Asian Games, which will also become a booster for the development of rugby in our province. "Liao Jiuli participated in the Asian Games, and many media came to interview and report, which will greatly enhance the influence of rugby in our province." Tang Yu believes that after the Asian Games, more teenagers in our province will like rugby.
It is reported that our province has set short-term goals and long-term goals in rugby. The short-term goal is that the men’s team will strive to enter the top six in the 2025 National Games, and the women’s team will strive to win medals. The long-term goal is to popularize and lay a solid foundation, and at the same time build a team of athletes, coaches and referees, and strive to make Hebei rugby enter the first phalanx in the country as soon as possible.

The Italian-born Beijing Winter Olympics Thailand team player wants to go skiing in Xinjiang!

  [Global Times-Global Network Reporter Xing Xiaotong Wan Lin] "I want to go skiing in Xinjiang!" On the 2nd, Mark Chanloung, a skier representing Thailand in the Beijing Winter Olympics, said in a video interview with the Global Times reporter: "I usually train in Europe, and skiing in Xinjiang can personally feel the difference with Europe. This will be a great experience!"

  Altay, Xinjiang, the birthplace of human skiing, has become a skiing paradise by virtue of its unique advantages such as long snow season, high snow quality, sufficient snow volume and wide snow area. Mark Zhanlong told the Global Times reporter that he was glad that China had such excellent skiing conditions, and he would like to go to Xinjiang for a slide if he had the chance.

  The picture shows Thai skier Mark Zhanlong. The picture comes from the network.

  It is reported that the Thai delegation, including four athletes, stayed in Beijing Winter Olympic Village on January 29th. The four athletes are male cross-country skier Mark Chanloung, female cross-country skier Karen Chanloung, male alpine skier Nicola Zanon and female alpine skier Mida Jaiman.

  It is worth mentioning that Karen Zhanlong, a female cross-country skier, is the younger sister of Mark Zhanlong. She will be the flag bearer of the Thai delegation at the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics. Mark Zhan Long will be the first player of the Thai delegation in this Winter Olympics, and plans to participate in the cross-country skiing men’s double chase (15 km traditional technology +15 km free technology) held on the 6 th. The two brothers and sisters also participated in the PyeongChang Winter Olympics in 2018 on behalf of the Thai team, and their parents have been accompanying their brothers and sisters to participate in the competition.

  "I feel good. I think I can make a good start for the Thai team in the game on the 6 th." Mark Zhanlong said in an interview with the Global Times reporter, "I am very happy to participate in the Beijing Winter Olympics. The accommodation and food conditions here are also good." Mark’s excitement was beyond words. On the day he stayed in the Winter Olympics Village, he couldn’t wait to try out his equipment at the cross-country ski resort, and posted photos on the "Instagram" with the caption "Let’s start the Olympic adventure" (as shown below).

  Mark told the Global Times reporter that he had participated in competitions in Tianjin and Hangzhou before the outbreak in December 2019, and it was the first time to come to Beijing. Up to now, his experience in Beijing is good, and entering the closed loop has not affected his daily training. Although he is not so free, safety is more important now.

  Mark and his sister Karen are Thai-Italian hybrids. They were born in a small village in northwest Italy. They started skiing at an early age and were selected for the Italian national team. "When it comes to ice and snow sports, people usually don’t think of Thailand. Thailand is neither snowy nor cold, and it is indeed difficult to develop winter sports. " Mark told the Global Times that despite this, the level of ice and snow sports in Thailand has improved. In 2016, in order to help Thailand develop ice and snow sports and for better personal development, Mark and his brother officially joined the Thai national team, and in 2018, they represented the Thai team in the PyeongChang Winter Olympics.

  Mark recalled that there were only two years left before the PyeongChang Winter Olympics, and their brother and sister changed coaches and everything had to be readjusted. This time, in order to participate in the Beijing Winter Olympics, he and his sister prepared for four years. "I am fully prepared and confident to get good results in the competition." Mark expressed his expectation for the Beijing Winter Olympics to the Global Times reporter. He also said that the Beijing Winter Olympics also provided opportunities for skiers all over the world to communicate.

  The Beijing Winter Olympics has promoted the further development of ice and snow sports in China. Mark once met a team from China in New Zealand, and the two sides trained together for some time. He said, "I have seen the growth of many athletes in China, and I am very happy to see more countries joining the ranks of ice and snow sports.". In Mark’s view, China has excellent conditions and opportunities to develop ice and snow sports.

  The picture shows Mark Zhanlong being interviewed by the Global Times reporter.

  For young people who are keen on ice and snow sports, Mark said that it is inevitable to encounter some difficulties when they are beginners, and it will become easier and easier as long as they persist. Moreover, once you master this sport, you will enjoy it, so "don’t give up"!

  Usually, while training, Mark is also studying physical education in a university in Milan. He told the Global Times reporter that after the Beijing Olympics, he would go back to school to participate in the defense before graduation and prepare for the next competition. In addition, Rimak Zhan Long will celebrate his 27th birthday in Beijing Winter Olympic Village on February 9th. He said that there will be competitions around his birthday, and he may only celebrate with his family.

Christmas in Siheyuan —— Changes of foreign festivals in China in the past 30 years

  Beijing, China Broadcasting Network, December 25 th When the traditional Christmas atmosphere in the West is getting stronger and stronger, the courtyard of No.35 Xitangzi Hutong, a famous quadrangle in Dongcheng District of Beijing, has been particularly busy these days. In this traditional courtyard in China, which was built in Yongzheng period of Qing Dynasty and once lived by Zuo Zongtang, an important official in the late Qing Dynasty, someone is organizing a lively Christmas party.


  Through the long corridor, rockery and garden full of China traditional culture in this courtyard, people feel a different kind of feelings when they look at Santa Claus in red and red hat and Christmas tree with lights on.


  Pride and prejudice: celebrating the foreign festival is to worship foreign things and flatter foreign countries.


  "After hard work and study for a year, Christmas at the end of 2008 is the time for us to relax and celebrate this festival together! Exchange each other’s gifts in beautiful songs, bring joy to everyone in self-made programs and get beautiful gifts, get together in various interesting games and dance in exciting music … "This is the advertisement for the Christmas party to be held in No.35 Courtyard of Xitangzi Hutong.


  In China 30 years ago, this Christmas call, which was imbued with many elements such as joy, reunion and commercial speculation, was unimaginable. Until the early 1980s, overseas festivals in China were almost equated with the word "worshipping foreign things and obsessing foreign things".


  "At that time, most people were very sensitive to overseas festivals, because there was always public opinion accusing China of having so many traditional festivals, why did it have to be overseas? Are foreign festivals better than those in China, and the moon in foreign countries is rounder than that in China? Damn it! Too worshipful of foreigners! " Yin Yungong, director of the Institute of Journalism of China Academy of Social Sciences, said, "This kind of emotion was normal at that time, because we were relatively closed and exclusive at that time, which was a kind of arrogance and prejudice in another sense.".


  This "arrogance and prejudice" made foreign festivals have no market in China before the 1990s. Occasionally, there were some commercial or spontaneous activities to celebrate western festivals in some coastal cities, and they were often criticized. Some foreigners who entered China in the early days of reform and opening up will generally choose to go back to China for holidays or go to neighboring countries such as Japan and the Philippines for holidays when festivals such as Thanksgiving and Christmas come.


  Tolerance and appreciation: crossing the foreign festival generously.


  Even though there were many refusals and rejections, in the early days of reform and opening-up, China, which opened its doors, gradually began to re-examine and treat foreign festivals differently, even from the bud of timidity.


  Allan Zeman, the boss of Hong Kong Lan Kwai Fong, felt the changes in China at that time. At the end of 1980, Allan Zeman went to Hangzhou for business, and the foreign-related hotel where he stayed held a small-scale "Christmas party" for the guests. Allan Zeman said with emotion: "This is my first Christmas in China, which shows that China is really open."


  Just as the reform and opening up started in the special zones and coastal areas, China people’s attitude towards foreign festivals is also "the south wind gradually spread to the north". At first, Guangdong, Shanghai and other regions broke through the imprisonment in understanding, and then began to gradually affect the whole country.


  Around the 1990s, businesses in Guangdong and other places began to actively play up pure western festivals such as Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Valentine’s Day for commercial purposes, and gradually formed a trend. More and more people in China began to celebrate foreign festivals generously.


  "On the surface, the start of foreign festivals in China seems to be a purely commercial promotion, but its origin is the openness and tolerance of China people’s mentality formed with the reform and opening up, and foreign cultures are no longer blindly excluded." Zhang Yu, general manager of caeg Company, said: "Learning to appreciate with tolerance is a major change for China people to treat foreign festivals."


  In fact, China people, who were just curious at first, gradually discovered the positive factors of foreign festivals from the perspective of cultural level and psychological needs, such as mother’s day, father’s day, Thanksgiving and other grateful feelings, such as the candor and expression of love on Valentine’s Day.


  In 1998, Ms. Chen Zinan, who returned from overseas, returned to Beijing. She liked quadrangle culture and opened a western private restaurant called "Chief of Autumn". Since its opening, Valentine’s Day and Christmas are the best prime time for business here. "Apart from foreigners, more and more people from China have come here for Christmas and Christmas dinner in recent years."


  Reason and Emotion: Traditional festivals in China are the main theme.


  In the 21st century, foreign festivals have blossomed everywhere in China. Nowadays, whenever Valentine’s Day, Christmas and other foreign festivals come, waiters wearing little red riding hood can be seen in many cities in China, and news that roses are seriously out of stock can be heard. The foreign festival economy spawned by foreign festivals has become a gimmick for merchants to attract customers, and foreign festivals have also become a fashion.


  However, in the hot atmosphere of the festival, the decline of traditional festivals in China has gradually caused China people to worry about the protection and inheritance of their traditional culture.


  On the eve of Christmas in 2006, 10 doctors from Peking University, Tsinghua, Nankai University and other universities issued a joint signature proposal, calling on netizens to be cautious about Christmas. They believe that the reason why Christmas is popular in China is that Chinese people are in a state of collective unconsciousness in culture-indifference and indifference to their own traditions is the reason why foreign festivals are popular.


  Therefore, after foreign festivals prevailed in China for more than 10 years, China people began to think about them from the perspective of reason and emotion.


  "When China people flock to celebrate Christmas, people will have some worries." Zhang Yiwu, a professor of Chinese literature in Peking University, said: "The root cause of anxiety lies in China people’s fear that the younger generation will lose enthusiasm for their traditional festivals and forget the foundation of their own culture. Of course, we don’t exclude foreign cultures, but our foundation should be our own traditional culture, so we must make it clear that China Festival is the main theme of our festival. "


  Some scholars wrote that we should not persuade people to stay away from or even resist the proliferation of foreign festivals, but should objectively examine the exchange and mutual accommodation between Chinese and Western cultures with the broad mind of the Chinese nation and a heart without cultural prejudice. While paying attention to and accepting western culture, we should pay more attention to how to revitalize our own traditions and culture, reform and enrich the connotation of these traditional festivals, and make them more attractive.


  In fact, the China government has begun to consciously guide people to pay attention to their traditional festivals. It is a positive and clear signal that Tomb-Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival have become legal holidays.

Save the famine! Star movie bloggers recommend good movies for you online.


Huang Xuan


As a famous "Buddhist male god of literature and art", Huang Xuan is not active on various social networking sites, but leaves more time for self-charging, including a lot of reading and watching movies.


      Huang Xuan, who starred in many literary films, also loved art films. He once revealed in an interview that michael haneke, Clint Eastwood, jim jarmusch and sean penn are all his favorite filmmakers.

      He also recommended Into the Wild, Children, A Parting, Requiem for a Dream, East of Eden and many other films that will still be revisited.

When filming The Legend of the Demon Cat, in order to make himself more poetic, Huang Xuan read The West Chamber and Wang Guowei’s Poems on Earth under the recommendation of Chen Kaige, and constantly tried to figure out the psychological state of the characters. Watching movies on weekdays is another form of precipitation and accumulation for Huang Xuan.


In Huang Xuan’s view, sharing his reading and watching movies with fans is also part of the communication between artists and fans. "It is biased towards the exchange of ideas and is also an active advocacy of a lifestyle."

In addition to Li Xian, Chun Li, who once played the role of Si Li in Joy of Life, and played Wei Yaowan in Ruyi’s Royal Love in the Palace, is also a star movie blogger who often "operates" in Weibo.


Not only that, but she also created a topic for sharing movies in Weibo: # Pure Movie Watching #, which has been launched for nearly two years and recommended more than 50 movies, with nearly 100 million readings and more than 100,000 comments.


Last year, Chun Li also won the title of "Top Ten V Judges of 2019" with a group of film critics for this topic.


In contrast, Chun Li’s film list is more grounded and popular, with both foreign literary masterpieces and a large number of cinema films and Chinese films. The recommendation is more like a "private" sharing between girlfriends than a film review.


For example, when recommending the award-winning film Girl, the director of Cannes Film Festival, Chun Li shared his experience of practicing ballet. "The familiar images evoke many memories. Becoming a ballet dancer is a transformation full of real pain … The girls who dance ballet are given a stubborn persistence. The film is like this, and so are we. "


The suspense film Searching reminds her of her subtle mentality when communicating with her parents: "I am particularly touched by the fact that my father repeatedly knocked on the keyboard and then deleted this picture. Many times when communicating with my parents, many words came to my mouth and finally swallowed back."


chen jian bin


      Chen Jianbin, a graduate of the Central Academy of Drama, is a famous "professional fan" in the circle.

      For this identity, he himself is also very recognized. He bluntly said that his interest in watching movies is "natural" and he likes all kinds of movies, not for work. "Because watching movies can make me feel particularly happy and happy."

Among them, Zhang Yimou’s Red Sorghum and Truffaut’s The Last Subway are enlightening works that lead him to the road of performance.


The rural theme of "Red Sorghum" made him see the hope that he was born in the countryside to engage in acting career. In "The Last Subway", the images of the protagonists still insisting on rehearsing in the basement of the theater during the war gave him the desire to apply for Chinese opera.


Chen Jianbin is very confident about his movie viewing volume, and once proudly said that he has never met his opponent. When studying in Chinese opera, he often locked himself in the viewing room and watched videos all night. This brushing habit has also been maintained until now.


In a life variety show, Chen Jianbin started the "viewing room" mode as soon as he arrived at the residence, and took out the long-prepared Blu-ray discs, all of which were classic old films, including butch cassidy and the sundance kid, Sunset Yellow Sand and the "Apu Trilogy" by Indian director satyajit ray.


After watching the movie, I had a whim. I told my wife, Angel, that I wanted to name the unborn child Sundance (the name of the protagonist in butch cassidy and the sundance kid), and the shadow is full of true colors.



WatchingThe Phantom SewerAt that time, Chen Jianbin even brought his own commentary track. "This is notPaul Thomas AndersonThe best movie. "And then reel comments.



In an interview, Chen Jianbin once asked a reporter, "What is the first shot of American Beauty?" At that time, the other party was speechless. This has also become one of the anecdotes circulating in the circle.



Chen Jianbin said that when people often ask themselves why they can watch so many movies, he often replies, "I spend other people’s time watching movies. Even though I’m not in this industry now, I’m still an avid movie fan. “


In addition to the above four, there are many stars in the film and television circle who are hidden senior fans and movie bloggers.


Zhang YiIt has been revealed that my biggest hobby is to organize my own film library and prefix all films according to the ranking of directors, main actors, awards and douban, so as to facilitate my retrieval and study at any time.



78-year-old famous directorXie FeiUp to now, I still actively share all kinds of film reviews and drama reviews on Douban, including not only a large number of literary films and cinema films, but also online dramas such as Joy of Life, which can be described as "never too old to see old".



It is true that some people may question that the behavior of movie recommendation by stars is "setting aside people" and "showing superiority", but it is undeniable that listening, watching and feeling excellent works is one of the necessary accomplishments for actors and directors, and it will certainly help them go further and further on the road of performing arts.


Xiao Dianjun also sincerely expects that there will be more movie bloggers in the entertainment circle.

Which listed companies are behind the National Day file?
Movies are introduced here. As a financial blogger who spends every day in the stock market, I still want to analyze the listed companies behind these movies.
This year’s National Day, Light, Huayi and Bona will not be absent. Bona produced Chen Kaige’s Volunteer Army: Attack by Soldiers, while Light prepared Zhang Yimou’s Rock-solid. The release dates of the two films are only two days, which is the first time that the two directors have confronted each other in the commercial market. In Huayi’s hand, it is Tian Yusheng’s "Former" series "Former 4: Early Marriage" at the end of the decade.
At present, a total of 7 films have been scheduled for the National Day Mid-Autumn Festival. According to the data of Cat’s Eye Professional Edition, the upper limit of box office predicted by "Rock Solid" and "Previous 4" is 1.78 billion yuan and 2.5 billion yuan respectively, and the box office predicted by "Volunteers" is 1.28 billion yuan to 1.5 billion yuan. At present, the predicted box office of no films exceeds 3 billion yuan, and the total predicted box office of announced films is about 4.4 billion to 6.4 billion yuan.
Looking at the performance in the first half of the year, the light media can be described as steady development.
In the first half of the year, Light Media achieved revenue of 605 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 3.78%; The net profit of returning to the mother was 203 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 1.12%.The films mainly invested by Light Media include Deep Sea in the Spring Festival and So Many Years in May 1st. In addition to Deep Sea, Light Media also participated in Manjianghong and Exchange of Life in the Spring Festival of 2023.
However, although "Man Jiang Hong" has a high box office. However, the investment proportion of light is not high, and the income is not as good as the main slide with lower box office. The revenue range of the mainland box office of Light Media, which originated from "Man Jiang Hong", is expected to reach about 100 million, which is lower than the revenue brought by "Deep Sea".
By contrast,Bona Film, which just landed on the A-share market last year, had a hard time.
According to the financial report, the company’s operating income was about 850 million yuan, down 42.31% year-on-year; The net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies was about-265 million yuan, down 212.22% year-on-year. Bona explained in the financial report that the main reason was that during the reporting period, compared with last year, the company invested in films with different orders of magnitude, and its performance was not as good as that of the same period last year.

thisNational day file,Bona bet on "Volunteers: Attack by Soldiers". By the end of June, the accounts receivable of Bona Film reached 830 million yuan, accounting for 97.65% of the revenue, and the net cash flow generated by operating activities in the same period was only-120 million yuan.

Huayi BrothersAbsentthis yearSummer file.
In the first half of 2023, five films were released by Huayi Brothers: Wandering Earth 2, Rock Tibetan Mastiff: Riding the Wind and Waves, Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department, Love is Beautiful, and Slam Dunk Master. The main films: Rock Tibetan Mastiff: Riding the Wind and Waves and Love is Beautiful were 39.624 million and 14.551 million respectively. At present, the upcoming "Former 4" in the National Day file may become the "life-saving straw" of Huayi Brothers.
According to the financial report, Huayi achieved an operating income of 339 million yuan in the first half of 2023, a year-on-year increase of 59.93%; The net profit loss of returning to the mother was 143 million yuan, which was 192 million yuan in the same period of last year, and the loss was narrowed compared with the same period of last year.
