Andy Lau confessed in an exclusive interview: I hope I can stop and catch my breath

  


  Andy Lau


  This year is Andy Lau’s 27th year in the arts. With records, concerts, and movies, Andy is still busy. Like every time he is familiar with the program, "Seeing the Dragon Remove Armor" was released in the mainland on the 3rd. Andy is promoting his new film, and his dedication is the same as before. Due to travel restrictions, "Seeing the Dragon Remove Armor" could not be promoted in Nanjing or Shanghai. Yesterday, Andy Lau, who was busy, accepted a telephone interview with this reporter.


  Role:It’s so perfect, some dare not act


  Director Li Rengang once said this in front of countless reporters: "No one is more perfect than Andy Lau to play Zhao Yun." Li Rengang, who calls himself a "Three Kingdoms Fool", prepared the script early and waited for Andy Lau’s schedule, just because he wanted a Zhao Yun who was the most like Zhao Yun. Hua Zai said that he was very grateful to the director, Zhao Yun has always been his idol. Zhao Erhu in "Naming" is not perfect, but the audience likes it, but it is indeed a big challenge to grasp the perfect Zhao Yun. "Since you have the opportunity to act, read more books and study carefully. Zhao Yun is too perfect, and sometimes I dare not act, and I don’t know how to do it well." When asked if he had any similarities to Zhao Yun, he humorously said, "I guess I’m not as tall as him, but they’re all very handsome. According to historical records, Zhao Yun is eight feet long and has a majestic appearance. One foot of the Three Kingdoms in the Han Dynasty is about 24 centimeters. I think he is about 1.90 meters. The key is to be brave and good at fighting. How perfect!"


  Acting:The era of Andy Lau’s bad movies is over


  Andy is famous for his hard work in the circle. Director Chen Kexin once said: "He has his own ideas. He never acts for the sake of acting. He always thinks, even more than I think." He has made the most movies, but there are also many bad movies. However, audiences from Zhao Erhu in "The Name" to Zhao Zilong in "Seeing the Dragon Remove Armor" will marvel: "Andy’s acting is getting better and better!" Some people say that Andy Lau’s era of bad movies is over, and except for his own loyal fans, most of his characters can convince audiences. However, Andy also has his own "high opinion" about acting: "In fact, every actor has his own best role. In fact, you are still you no matter how you act, and the audience still sees the character expressed through you, so whether it is Zhao Erhu or Zhao Zilong this time, it is conveyed to everyone through Andy Lau."


  PK: I want to send a ticket to Fa Ge to see "Seeing the Dragon Remove Armor"


  Hua Zai was very excited about the release of "Children of Yellowstone" starring Chow Yun-fat on the same day. He did not express his position on the media’s promotion of Andy Lau and Chow Yun-fat’s first PK in the mainland film market. After all, he is no longer the young man who just entered the wireless artist training class. Instead, he is very willing to tell reporters about the story of He Fa Ge. Hua Zai has always said that Fa Ge has a great influence on him, "When I entered the wireless, he was already very famous. If I hadn’t met him back then, many things might not have happened. As for the PK problem, I will send a ticket to Fa Ge to invite him to watch the play. Whether the box office is good or not is not entirely the relationship between the two of us, and the distributor."


  Power:I don’t want to be forgotten soon


  Andy has been out for 27 years and has been popular for 27 years, which can be regarded as a miracle in the entertainment industry. What is supporting him? Andy said with a smile that the current era is very changeable, and many things appear once, but disappear before they can be seen by others, so he cherishes those nostalgic fans very much, "Everyone gets old, just like me, I am also getting old slowly. As an artist, of course, I hope that I will be remembered as long as possible. Of course, I also hope that everyone will not forget me so quickly, but I can’t stop doing things every day. At present, I have no plans to stop."


  Ideal:Director, husband, father


  "I have always planned to be a director, but maybe the time has not yet come. I hope to do it when I am most confident, and I am looking forward to that day." Andy recalled that in the most desperate era, he took on four films at the same time, and he did not have time to think about good or bad. Today, he has been able to control many things, choosing directors, choosing scripts, choosing the team to cooperate with, and paying for the film to be the boss. In the end, Andy said that he was also very tired, and now he was not as tired as before. When he was tired, he hoped to stop to catch his breath and continue on the road. He hoped to form his own family at the most suitable time, be a husband and a father, and do his duty like a member of an ordinary family. "We gave a lot and got a lot, so I have always been grateful for everything I have."

"Today is the 130th anniversary of my alma mater, Wuhan University. Here, I would like to extend my sincerest and warmest congratulations to my alma mater. Happy 130th birthday to Wuhan University!"

"At the 9th Alumni Luojia Forum held by my alma mater, I am honored to be invited to share as a guest speaker again. I have always had an unforgettable love for my alma mater. The small achievements I have achieved today are inseparable from the training of my alma mater back then. It was from Wuhan University that I embarked on the road of scientific and technological exploration."

The following is the full text of the speech.

Dear teachers, seniors, and students, good afternoon!

I am Lei Jun, a 1987 alumnus. First of all, I would like to extend my sincerest and warmest congratulations to my alma mater. Happy 130th birthday to Wuhan University!

I have always had an unforgettable love for my alma mater, and the small achievements I have achieved today are inseparable from the training of my alma mater in those years. It can be said that Wuhan University has shaped me, allowed me to find my dream, learned the way to learn, and gave me the most precious wealth in my life. No matter where I go, I will always think of the great support and care given by my alma mater, and my heart is full of gratitude.

01

"Wuhan University is the best university in the world"

Five years ago, also here, I once said: In my heart, Wuhan University is the best university in the world, no one. This sentence caused a huge response on the Internet. In fact, it doesn’t matter. If everyone feels that there is a gap, all our teachers and students of Wuhan University and Wuhan University alumni have a common goal: to build our alma mater into the best university in the world!

What’s so great about Wuhan University?

Not only is it a long history, achievements and many masters, just talking about the campus environment, our Wuhan University is definitely the best. Take the architecture as an example, the old zhai house, the old library, the old gymnasium, etc., which fully reflects the ideological pattern of ancient and modern, and the integration of East and West. It is a classic business card of Chinese universities and a warm picture that we will always remember in our hearts.

Of course, what’s more important is the humanistic environment of Wuhan University. The most attractive thing about Wuhan University is that it pays special attention to the free development of people, the style of study is diverse and inclusive, and it never allows students to study, but allows students to fully develop independently. The teachers are also very friendly, and the relationship between teachers and students is very harmonious. Let me give a small example. When I was in school, the teachers rarely delayed the class, because once the class was delayed, the students knocked on the table to protest, and the teacher immediately understood.

In August this year, I held my fourth annual speech, with the theme of "Growing Up", which mainly told me how I went to college and started a business. Most of the content was about Wuhan University. At that time, Secretary Huang Taiyan also came to the scene to support. There are so many friends on the scene today, I ask a question, how many people have seen my speech in August?

In my memory, there are a lot of stories about Wuhan University, and I only told a small part of them in my speech, mainly five experiences: just entering the university, watching "Silicon Valley Fire" in the library; completing four years of college credits in two years; how to become a program master; undergraduate ** in the journal; and the experience of trying to start a business in college.

I cut a short video for you to watch.

Some netizens commented: This is a large-scale recruitment promotion of Wuhan University. This netizen is right, this speech is to promote Wuhan University and to warm up for Wuhan University’s 130-week celebration.

Wuhan University also had a crucial impact on me: it was here that I embarked on the path of scientific and technological exploration.

02

My path to technological exploration

2.1 The path to take in life

Before the college entrance examination, I like chemistry and wanted to apply for the Department of Chemistry at first. I have a good brother who wants to apply for computer science. I just temporarily changed my volunteer and applied for the Department of Computer Science of Wuhan University.

Looking back now, everything was the best arrangement. As soon as I entered college, I fell madly in love with programming, which can be said to be "addicted to it, and I can’t extricate myself".

There were too few opportunities to get on the computer in that era, and I thought of many ways, and even did such "bad things" with my classmates – sneaking through the windows in the middle of the night, sneaking into the computer room, playing with the computer all night, and almost being caught by the teacher on the spot. Of course, this was wrong, and I have to thank my alma mater for its tolerance.

The teachers have always encouraged us to continue to explore and innovate in technology. Coupled with the free and relaxed environment and laboratory conditions, I have the courage to set no limits. At that time, I dabbled in a very wide range, writing encryption software, antivirus software, financial software, CAD software, Chinese systems, etc., and also did hardware like Hanka.

Today, I can still find the code I wrote when I was a sophomore on the Internet. A memory management software called RI, this small software is very popular. At that time, I simply open-sourced it. Why open-source it? The main reason is to show off my skills, write such a good code, let everyone see it, and challenge the experts in the country.

Therefore, I feel that when you are young, you should try as much as possible, broaden your horizons, and enrich your "arsenal".

2.2 Hold the banner of national general software

After graduation, I joined Kingsoft as employee No. 6, participating in the development of office software.

Many friends may not be familiar with the fact that large-scale commercial software such as office software is extremely difficult to develop. At present, the world mainly includes Microsoft Office and Kingsoft WPS.

WPS was born in 1988 and experienced great success, but by 1996, "there was Microsoft before, and then there was piracy", and it was in a desperate situation. In the most difficult days, we discussed many times whether to continue to do WPS. In fact, from a business perspective, there was no reason to continue.

There is only one reason why we have never given up: WPS is the banner of national universal software, and we cannot let this flag fall in our hands.

To keep doing WPS, the most difficult thing is to find a way to survive. We make various tools and software such as Kingsoft Word and Kingsoft Drug Tyrant, and we make games, etc. We find survival space in the gaps that Microsoft does not want to do or disdains to do, and work hard to make money. Then, use the money earned to support the WPS team, insist on continuous research and development and continuous improvement, and fight a long-term war.

Of course, it is impossible to win by making small repairs to the original architecture alone. By 2002, we had made an important decision to rewrite WPS from scratch with all the money we had worked so hard to save over the years, a total of 40 million yuan in cash, a handful of All-in. This was a very difficult decision, involving the rewriting of tens of millions of lines of code, which required great courage and determination. We worked on it for 3 years, and finally in 2005, we completed a new architecture. We have made great efforts to build this architecture, and we can proudly say that it represents the most advanced level of office software in the past 20 years, and it has been used to this day.

In this protracted battle, Jinshan endured a long period of loneliness and suffering. At that time, there were not many people who understood us, nor did they cheer for us. We just thought we should do it.

In 2011, I became the chairperson of Jinshan, leading the transformation of Jinshan mobile Internet. The advantages of WPS rewriting architecture are reflected. This time, we finally overtook Microsoft Office and became the best office software for mobile end and the largest market share in China. After 20 years of groping in the dark, Jinshan has finally regained the glory of its early days.

In 2019, after 31 years of perseverance, Kingsoft WPS finally went public.

At that time, the entire IT industry said that WPS was a hardcore technology hero dream and the most inspiring story in China’s software industry.

Today, the number of WPS MAU equipment has exceeded 586 million, R & D expenditure accounts for more than 35%, and R & D personnel account for more than 60%.

The breakthrough of hard-core technology relies on lasting resilience and persistence. The counterattack of WPS is the victory of persistence.

To this day, when it comes to autonomous control and domestic substitution, in the field of office software, WPS has never worried anyone.

The history of WPS has also proved that with enough perseverance, Chinese engineers, scientists, and entrepreneurs can all succeed in any field of hard-core technology.

2.3 From software to hardware

In the long-term battle of Jinshan, at the age of 40, I once again ventured into the field of hardware technology.

In 2010, in a small office in the Silver Valley Building of Baofusi Bridge in Beijing, I founded Xiaomi with 13 colleagues.

A programmer who had been working in software and the Internet for 20 years, and suddenly stepped into the hardware industry, can be said to be "ignorant and fearless". But the most important thing I did at Wuhan University gave me inexplicable confidence. As long as I have the ability to learn, there are no problems that cannot be solved.

Later, as everyone knows, Xiaomi won a fantastic start, but also encountered tremendous difficulties due to the lack of a solid foundation in hardware capabilities. At the most dangerous and difficult moment, in May 2016, I had to personally take over the mobile phone department, leading the team to seriously make up lessons and focus on hardcore technology.

Speaking of which, the courage to directly manage hardware research and development is still the confidence given to me by Wuhan University. Back then, when I was at Wuhan University, I soldered circuit boards and made programmable chips. Although I am not proficient, it can be regarded as some hardware basics.

At that time, I had more than 20 meetings every day, while learning the latest technology of mobile phone hardware, discussing engineering plans with my colleagues, and frantically recruiting the best engineers to expand the team and enhance the research and development strength. Looking back now, those more than a year were simply not a human life, and even cats and dogs could not stand it. But there is no wasted effort in the world. Just like practicing programming at Wuhan University, my hardware technology level soon improved.

In March 2021, Xiaomi Group officially announced the construction of a car, and I began to learn the technology of the car frantically. I will share it with you after Xiaomi Auto is officially launched.

2.4 In the next decade, from "striving" to "leading"

Xiaomi’s mission is to "insist on making good products that move people’s hearts and are affordable, so that everyone in the world can enjoy the good life brought by technology", which determines that Xiaomi must be a technology company.

Many people still have many misunderstandings about Xiaomi. What is the misunderstanding? Someone always says, "Xiaomi is an assembly plant, Xiaomi has little investment in research and development, and Xiaomi has no core technology."Overall, Xiaomi does have a certain gap compared to the world’s top technology companies. But as a 13-year-old company, Xiaomi’s investment and strength in research and development are still quite strong.

Let me report a set of figures: in the past five years, Xiaomi’s R & D investment has reached a compound annual growth rate of 38.4%. In 2022, Xiaomi’s R & D investment was 16.20 billion yuan, and it is expected to reach 20 billion yuan in 2023. In the next five years, more than 100 billion yuan will be invested in technology research and development. What is the level of 16.20 billion yuan? In September this year, the National Bureau of Statistics, the Ministry of Science and Technology, and the Ministry of Finance issued the "Statistical Communiqué on National Science and Technology Investment in 2022", and the national R & D investment 3.07829 trillion. Xiaomi’s R & D investment has accounted for 0.53% of all R & D expenditures in the country, including the sum of central enterprises, state-owned enterprises, universities, research institutions, and

Let’s take another example, let’s take a field that Xiaomi may be the least good at in everyone’s eyes, 5G standard patents. This field is the strength of communication equipment manufacturers, and it requires accumulation and precipitation in particular, and it takes years to endure. But even so, in the "5G Standard Essential Patent Declaration Valid Global Patent Family Enterprise Ranking" released by the China Institute of Information and Communications this year, Huawei is the world’s leader, accounting for 14%; while Xiaomi patents account for 4.1%, which has entered the top ten in the world.

On the issue of misunderstanding, I have also been troubled. Later I want to understand that there is no need to be torn, the key depends on your own growth.

On the other hand, when you compare 13-year-old Xiaomi with Apple, Samsung, and Huawei, you have extremely high expectations and requirements for us. However, rice is eaten bite by bite, and the road is taken step by step. I believe that as Xiaomi continues to increase its investment in research and development and its strength becomes stronger and stronger, we will definitely be able to win everyone’s trust and recognition by virtue of our own continuous growth.

In August this year, I announced Xiaomi’s strategic goal for the new decade: to invest heavily in the underlying core technology and strive to become a new generation of global hard-core technology leaders.

Just last month, we just released Xiaomi Surging OS, which is the world’s first "people, cars, and home ecosystem" operating system. Xiaomi Surging OS took 7 years of research and development, and more than 5,000 engineers participated in an unprecedented system underlying reconstruction. It will become the "public base for the interconnection of all things" in the future world, ready for tens of billions of devices and tens of billions of connections in mobile phones, homes, cars and other scenarios.

At the same time, Xiaomi has been working on many cutting-edge technologies, such as AI, chips, intelligent manufacturing, and humanoid robots.

I tell my colleagues inside the company that greatness is made, and we must be firm and patient enough. Xiaomi has only been around for 13 years, and we must be firm for at least 30 years before we can become a truly great company. This is an interesting phenomenon. In the field of hard core technology and manufacturing, almost all truly great companies have experienced more than 30 years of experience.

Why 30 years? Because 30 years is the time for generations of engineers to build a deep and leading technology system; it is the time required to grow to a sufficient scale to catch up with and surpass the original giants in the relevant industry. On the other hand, a technology company needs to go through several ups and downs and experience the test of industry and macro cycles in order to establish a solid industrial foundation and form a deep influence and leadership on the industrial chain.

The development of China’s hard-core technology has gradually participated in global competition since the 1990s, and is crossing the 30-year test threshold. On the one hand, China’s technology companies are catching up with the world’s top R & D technology level in the current low-level technology tracks; on the other hand, a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation is surging, and the cutting-edge hard-core technology strength is the decisive force.

Modern technology is a global battle for technology, resources, talent, and markets. We must seize the opportunity to win the future. In the current geopolitical environment, the more we face blockade and suppression, the less we can engage in self-isolation and self-isolation. We must always uphold a broad vision and mind. On the one hand, we are self-reliant and open-minded, and we will use the global advantageous resources to our advantage, forming an open innovation ecosystem with global competitiveness, and constantly moving towards the high end of the global value chain.

Gratitude and responsibility

3.1 The grace of a drop of water, the spring returns

During my college years and during my entrepreneurial career, I received a lot of help from people, and I have always been grateful.

I often ask myself: what should I do for my alma mater? What should I do for this era?

This morning, I finally fulfilled a major wish: I personally donated 1.30 billion cash to my alma mater as a birthday gift to support Wuhan University’s basic discipline development, scientific and technological innovation and college student training.

This wish originated more than 30 years ago. I grew up in an ordinary family in a county seat. When I was studying at Wuhan University, my family was very burdened, and I was determined to survive on my own.

So I studied very hard and worked very hard to get the scholarship. I once won the highest scholarship at Wuhan University at that time: 2,000 yuan, a huge sum of money from a donation from a company. I was particularly moved at that time, and I still clearly remember that on the podium, I secretly swore in my heart: When I have the ability, I will return it ten times, a hundred times, ten thousand times.

Six years after graduation, in 1997, at the age of 27, with a salary of about 4,000 yuan, I started my first donation to my alma mater, which was to establish the Lei Jun Scholarship (then called the Tengfei Scholarship) in the School of Computer Science. Since then, it has been donated for 26 consecutive years. In 2017, I finally donated a building at Wuhan University, and in June this year, the Lei Jun Building was officially completed.

Today, I decided to donate 1.30 billion, and I am very excited.

Struggling for a lifetime, what is it for? Different people have different answers. For me, being able to donate to my alma mater is one of the most worthwhile things to do.

However, I never advocate comparisons in donations. Everyone can give back to their alma mater with practical actions, and they can contribute money and make a strong contribution. This event has many, many alumni donations, and every donation is the love of alumni to their alma mater, and the weight is equal.

My donation this time focuses on three main directions: supporting basic research in the six major disciplines of mathematics, physics, literature, history and philosophy, supporting technological innovation in the field of computer science and technology, and supporting the training of college students. It is to enable more engineers, scientists, and technology entrepreneurs to appear in China, so that China can have more Huawei, more Xiaomi, more BYD, and more Ningde era. With more such people and companies, China’s hard-core technology will continue to rise and develop, and the forces supporting China’s hard-core technology will continue to emerge. Only then can we continue to lead the development of global science and technology, create a better life, and create a better and fairer world where everyone can continue to share the fruits of development.

3.2 Wuhan University spirit, endless life

Today, we gather here to celebrate the 130th anniversary of Wuhan University, not only the glorious history and great achievements of Wuhan University, but also the spiritual outlook and future blueprint of Wuhan University.

The history of the 130th anniversary of Wuhan University, as well as the revival of China and the changes in the world witnessed by Wuhan University in the past 130 years, tell us that we still have to believe. Believe in dreams, believe in persistence, believe in endless power, and believe in something beautiful and resilient that can cross the vicissitudes of life.

Finally, congratulations to the 130th anniversary of the alma mater, wish Wuhan University forever young; wish all Wu University people a bright future!

Thank you very much.

A new generation of domestic supercomputing system "Tianhe Xingyi" was released

The new generation of domestic supercomputing system "Tianhe Xingyi" was released. On December 6, the National Supercomputing Guangzhou Center officially released a new generation of domestic supercomputing system – "Tianhe Xingyi". The reporter learned from the 2023 Supercomputing Innovation Application Conference that the "Tianhe Xingyi" system is application-centered, using domestic advanced computing architecture, high-performance multi-core processors, high-speed interconnected networks, large-scale storage and other key technologies to build, in general-purpose CPU computing capacity, network capacity, storage capacity and application service capacity and other aspects than "Tianhe-2" to achieve doubling, support high-performance computing, AI large model training and large data analytics application mode, will further enhance the Guangzhou Supercomputing Center’s multi-domain service capabilities, and effectively meet the needs of supercomputing applications in various industries. On the same day, the National Supercomputing Guangzhou Center, together with Guangdong Unicom, China Mobile Internet, Pengcheng Laboratory, Guangdong Public Resources Trading Federation, Guangzhou Trading Group, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Huo Yingdong Research Institute, Macau China Innovation and Technology Development Promotion Association and other 14 units, officially launched the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Supercomputing Application Internet Construction, aggregating computing power resources, high-speed network resources and supercomputing application resources represented by supercomputers, and jointly building a national science and technology innovation platform to support the national computing power network construction strategy, laying a solid foundation for the century project of opening the computing power economy era in the Bay Area. With the development of innovative computing power and the new generation of artificial intelligence technology, the integration of supercomputing and artificial intelligence has become a key force driving scientific and technological innovation, and will provide a core driving force for the transformation and upgrading of various industries and the development of digital economy in our country for a long time. The 2023 Supercomputing Innovation and Application Conference, hosted by the National Supercomputing Center of Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou, brought together more than 400 representatives from national supercomputing centers, university institutes, and technology enterprises to share the latest achievements and experiences in the application of supercomputing empowered industries, and jointly explore the integration and development of advanced technologies such as supercomputing, smart computing, artificial intelligence, and big data. Takamatsu, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and President of Sun Yat-sen University, said that the development project of the new generation of domestic general-purpose supercomputing system of the supercomputing center has achieved phased results, which effectively ensures that the service capabilities of the center system continue to be leading at home and abroad. In the next step, Sun Yat-sen University will continue to support the construction and development of the center.It is hoped that the supercomputing center will continue to target the world’s cutting-edge science and technology and the country’s major strategic needs, actively connect with the local industrial layout, deepen the deep integration and intersection of multiple disciplines, and continuously produce major landmark application results to support the country’s high-level scientific and technological self-reliance. The Guangzhou Supercomputing Center has become the benchmark of our country’s supercomputing center "Tianhe-2". It was successfully developed in 2013 and won the TOP500 world supercomputing six consecutive championships, which is an important symbol of our country’s supercomputing system development entering the world’s leading ranks. Liao Xiangke, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and chief designer of the "Tianhe-2" development project, pointed out that the application of domestic supercomputing has always been a major challenge for the development of supercomputing in our country. The National Supercomputing Center Guangzhou has established a first-class talent team, developed a series of field-oriented supercomputing application platforms, and independently developed the "Starlight" domestic multi-mode supercomputing integration application support platform to build a bridge between domestic supercomputing systems and supercomputing applications in various fields. "Guangzhou Supercomputing insists on building a world-class supercomputing center as its goal, constantly expands the supercomputing application field, independently develops core application technologies, and creates a field-oriented application service platform." Lu Yutong, director of the National Supercomputing Center Guangzhou, said that the number of users of the Guangzhou Supercomputing Center has increased exponentially from the initial more than 300 to more than 300,000. The independently developed Starlight Supercomputing application support platform won the Guangdong Provincial Science and Technology Progress Special Award. In order to further support the construction of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area International Science and Technology Innovation Center, the center has built 15 sub-centers in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and established the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Supercomputing Alliance, forming an application pattern based on the Bay Area, serving the whole country, and affecting the world. It has become the benchmark of our country’s supercomputing centers and ranks among the top five most influential in the world. Application case, in the Huo Yingdong Research Institute of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, the 100M network special line extending from the Nansha branch of the National Supercomputing Center of the Guangzhou Center is connected to the National Supercomputing Center in Guangzhou University Town in the north, and the Qingshuiwan Campus of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in the south, which closely connects Guangzhou Supercomputing with Hong Kong’s science and technology innovation, making it a "transfer station" for Guangzhou-Hong Kong science and technology innovation Gao Min, dean of the Huo Yingdong Research Institute of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, said that supercomputing has a strong supporting role for scientific research. Hong Kong has many famous universities and a large number of cutting-edge scientific research talent teams, and the demand for supercomputing is very strong. In recent years, the Hong Kong scientific research team has used Guangzhou supercomputing to bear fruit.The University of Hong Kong has developed the world’s most durable hydrogen fuel cell. Thanks to the "Tianhe-2", a team led by Shaw Man-wah, a professor of chemical and biological engineering at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and dean of the HKUST Energy Research Institute, has developed a new hydrogen fuel cell, setting a world record for the durability of the battery to generate electricity. Hydrogen fuel cells are less harmful to the environment, but they have never been commercialized on a large scale. The reason is that hydrogen fuel cells rely on electrocatalysts to generate electricity, but catalysts are generally made of platinum (Pt), which is not only expensive but also rare. Scientists have been trying to find more common and inexpensive substances such as iron-nitrogen-carbon as alternatives to platinum, but these substances have poor catalytic power generation efficiency and durability. Relying on the rich storage resources and powerful computing power of "Tianhe-2", the team simulated the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on the surface of the new mixed catalyst, used density functional theory (DFT) to prove that its catalytic performance is superior to platinum, and finally developed a new hydrogen fuel cell, which greatly reduced the amount of platinum required by the catalyst by 80%. This new mixed catalyst not only has extremely low platinum content, but its catalytic efficiency remains at 97% after 100,000 voltage cycles of accelerated stress testing. The research team of Professor Zhang Xin of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and the Hong Kong Institute of Sport collaborated to study the aerodynamic characteristics of the cycling process using advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods through the "Tianhe-2" supercomputer. In the calculation, the overall wind resistance was evaluated and optimized based on factors such as wind speed, cycling attitude, bicycle parts, and wheel rotation, and validated and supplemented with the wind tunnel experimental measurements, which effectively promoted the athlete’s posture optimization, equipment design, and selection process. The simulation calculation also provided the flow field distribution of different parts of the body, assisted in clothing design and material selection, and was combined with the wind tunnel experiment. As a result, Hong Kong cyclist Li Huishi improved her training efficiency and competition results, and won a valuable bronze medal in the women’s track cycling competition at the Tokyo Olympic Games.

70 years of 7th generation car – looking back at the old days of "rolling wheels" from the liberation truck "Seventh Generation" cruise

70 years of 7th generation car - looking back at the old days of "rolling wheels" from the liberation truck "Seventh Generation" cruise

  On July 15, 1953, the first automobile factory in China, the First Automobile Factory, was laid in Changchun City, Jilin Province, and the new China automobile industry began to take off. This is the venue of the FAW’s groundbreaking ceremony (file photo).

  On June 26, FAW Jiefang Automobile Co., Ltd. held a "seventy-year journey of leadership"

250,000 yuan pure electric car, Huawei S7 and Xiaopeng P7i which is more cost-effective?

Talking about the most popular pure electric car recently, it must be the smart car jointly launched by Huawei and Chery – Zhijie S7. As the first car model under Huawei Hongmeng Zhixing, Zhijie S7 is equipped with a lot of Huawei intelligent technology, and various small videos introducing Zhijie S7 intelligent technology are also endless, which has attracted widespread attention from online netizens.

Image1.png 

And if you want to find the intellectual world S7 impact of the largest model, there is no doubt that Xiaopeng’s P7i, the same main intelligent technology, the same is pure electric car, so there are a lot of netizens curious, if you want to buy a 250,000 yuan pure electric car, then what is the choice of intellectual world S7 or Xiaopeng P7i?

Today, let’s take a look at the 250,000 version of the two models, which one is more cost-effective~

The model versions for this comparison are: Zhijie S7 2024, Standard Air Edition Pro, and Xiaopeng P7 2023 P7i 702 Max.

exterior design

In terms of appearance, the front face of the S7 is the first to adopt the new ALL-IN-ONE design of the Hongmeng Zhixing family. This front face design will also appear on the M9 in the future. It integrates functions such as running lights and diversion grooves, making the front face look very simple. At the same time, sharp cutting lines also add some aggression to it.

Image2.png 

However, from the side, the design of the Smart S7 looks a bit bloated and uncomplicated. Although the bezel-free door and hidden door handle are standard on the B-class pure electric car, the rounded waistline makes the Smart S7 less sporty and more stable than the executive-class car. This is very different from the design idea of the front face.

Image3.png 

The design of the tail is quite standard, and the through-type tail lights enhance the youthful atmosphere of the whole vehicle to a certain extent. At the same time, the semi-circular left and right signal lights also eliminate the problem of lack of recognition in the intelligent world S7. However, to be honest, the logo on the tail is a bit too complicated, neither easy to read nor easy to arrange. It is better to directly remove the visual simplicity.

The shape of the Xiaopeng P7i is regarded as the leader in the entire car market. Many netizens have always believed that "Xiaopeng P7 is the peak of pure electric car appearance". To be honest, this does make some sense. Therefore, although the Xiaopeng P7i is a facelift, the appearance design is basically consistent with the Xiaopeng P7.

Image4.png 

The front face design of the Xiaopeng P7i is very futuristic, with a lightsaber running through the headlights and an overly rounded front cover, making the Xiaopeng P7i recognizable on the road. Unlike the S7, the P7i follows the design concept of the front face and does not specifically make the side highlight the muscles, so the side of the P7i still maintains a round and elegant design style.

The design of the tail is similar to that of the Smart World S7, but fortunately, the tail of the Xiaopeng P7i is relatively short, and the turn signals and warning lights use a split design, so the elements are arranged in a stronger sense of order and are not easy to make people feel complicated.

dynamic performance

The Smart World S7 uses a 292Ps horsepower and 215kW power motor, while the Xiaopeng P7i uses a 276Ps horsepower and 203kW power motor. From the perspective of parameters alone, the performance of the Smart World S7 is much stronger than that of the Xiaopeng P7i, and the actual acceleration is also the same.

Image5.png 

Similarly, accelerating from 0 km/h to 100 km/h, the Xiaopeng P7i takes 6.4 seconds, although it is definitely not slow, and it can be regarded as the upper-middle level in the same class of pure electric cars. However, the Smart S7 only takes 5.4 seconds, which is a full second faster. This means that the Smart S7 is basically the first echelon with the fastest acceleration performance among the same price models, allowing you to complete the vast majority of lane-changing overtaking operations with confidence.

With a fast speed of 210km/h, even at high speeds, the second half of the car can also have abundant power to ensure that you can easily complete the emergency acceleration operation.

Image6.png 

In addition to that, the Smart S7 is also equipped with a Huawei Tuling intelligent chassis, which can identify road information in advance through the body’s camera and adjust the body suspension damping to improve the smoothness and comfort of driving through bumpy road sections. In addition, when cornering at high speed, the Tuling chassis can also adjust the suspension and front and rear axle torque independently, and the stability performance of high-speed cornering is also very good.

Therefore, in terms of driving control and comfort, the Smart S7 is completely ahead of the Xiaopeng P7i. It is very suitable for consumers who pursue driving experience, and its driving performance will not disappoint you.

Intelligent driving

Although the smart world S7 uses Huawei intelligent driving technology, the Pro version bought by 250,000 yuan does not actually support its advanced urban intelligent driving. The core reason is that the Pro version is not equipped with lidar, and can only support basic lane keeping functions and highway intelligent driving.

Image7.png 

Therefore, friends who purchase the Smart S7 Pro version for smart driving may be disappointed, but the Xiaopeng P7i at the same price supports smart driving on highways and in urban areas, and smart technology functions do not require additional payment.

Image8.png 

Therefore, for friends whose main car needs are commuting to and from get off work, buying a Xiaopeng P7i is undoubtedly the best way to free themselves from the boring morning and evening peaks every day, and in the case of taking their family on weekends, thanks to the blessing of intelligent driving technology, it can also effectively improve driving safety and make driving more secure.

battery life

In terms of battery life, the Smart World S7 uses the 62kWh lithium iron phosphate battery provided by Ningde Times, while the Xiaopeng P7i is equipped with the 86.2kWh ternary lithium battery of Zhongchuang Xinhang. From the perspective of battery capacity, Xiaopeng is undoubtedly at an overwhelming leading level, capable of providing up to 702km of pure electric cruising range, while the Smart World S7 is only 550km.

Image9.png 

If you only commute to and from work in the urban area, then the Xiaopeng P7i can basically guarantee that you don’t need to charge at all for a week, and even go on outings with friends on weekends. Occasionally, you won’t feel anxious about long-distance needs. Compared with the Smart World S7, it is a more reassuring model.

Image10.png 

Not only that, Xiaopeng also has more than 1,000 self-built charging piles, and the degree of improvement of the supplementary energy network is also very high. There is no need to worry about not being able to find Xiaopeng fast charging piles. You can see the location of Xiaopeng fast charging piles on the app at any time.

Combined with its long range, the Xiaopeng P7i can be regarded as one of the few pure electric cars without mileage anxiety. After all, whether there is a long-distance travel demand or not, choosing a longer mileage model can also save a lot of time spent on charging the car.

Interior cockpit

In terms of cockpit, if only in terms of comfort, then the cockpit of the Smart S7 is much better than that of the Xiaopeng P7i. It is covered with a large area of soft materials. At the same time, the cockpit design elements will appear more stable and intimate compared to Xiaopeng’s younger design sense. The luxurious temperament is also more sufficient, which can be regarded as a better cockpit in the same class.

Image11.png 

In terms of intelligence, although the HarmonyOS cockpit equipped with the Smart World S7 has excellent mobile phone connectivity, consumers need to use Huawei mobile phones to experience it, and Xiaopeng’s smart cockpit can have a consistent experience regardless of what mobile phone is used.

Image12.png

After years of hard work, the number of apps in the Xiaopeng app store is very large, and the adaptability is also very good. At the same time, Xiaopeng’s voice assistant performs well in a weak connection and no network environment. It can directly understand the owner’s long sentence instructions. The voice assistant is better than the intelligent S7.

Buying suggestion

Generally speaking, in the price range of 250,000 yuan, the cost performance of Xiaopeng P7i is far ahead compared to the smart world S7, not only the standard urban road intelligent driving, when commuting to and from work can almost achieve complete "car can not sit", and the cruising range is far higher than the smart world S7, even if there is a long-distance demand, it can be easily dealt with.

The intelligent world S7 Pro is not equipped with lidar, and the battery life is lower, so for home users, it is not cost-effective to spend 250,000 yuan to buy such a car, but if you prefer the driving feeling, then the intelligent world S7 can still be considered. Zero hundred acceleration only takes 5.4 seconds, and with excellent chassis tuning, it can be regarded as a driver’s car.

Xiaomi air conditioner supports 6-year quality assurance of the whole machine.

Fifth place: Oaks 1.5-horse new level 1 energy efficiency inverter heating and cooling air conditioner [Reference price: 2399 yuan]

Oaks 1.5 new 1-horsepower energy efficiency inverter heating and cooling air conditioner with monthly sales of nearly 20,000 units ranked fifth in the sales list. The sales gap with the fourth Xiaomi is a bit big.

Compared with the third-place Hualing air conditioner, which is also the new-level energy efficiency, the price of the Oaks air conditioner is a little unkind. This may also be the main reason why the sales gap of the Oaks air conditioner is wider than that of the fourth-place Xiaomi air conditioner.

The above five air conditioners belong to 5 brands respectively. The sales volume of the first place Gree is twice that of the second place Midea, which shows how popular Gree air conditioners are. Overall, the editor recommends choosing Gree air conditioners, and the performance and after-sales are the most trustworthy. What do you think, which air conditioner is the best?

Seeing the director being excavated with my brother, with the popularity of "Hua Qiangu", Marco’s new drama is matched for the newcomer?

There are many beautiful men in the entertainment industry who are suitable for ancient costumes, but there are not many who can still look good after taking off the ancient costumes. Marco is such a representative. In "Hua Qiangu", with the corner of the first beautiful man in the Six Realms "Killing Qianmo", Marco has attracted countless fans, but after a short period of glory, Marco has not caused more splashes in the entertainment industry. Now the dress is slightly thin, and it is not easy to create more glory from the appearance.

From the first time Hua Qiangu saw him, he could tell how amazing "Kill Qianmo" was. He directly shouted "Kill Sister" and muttered to himself, "Sister is so beautiful, but her breasts are so small." Such an evaluation would definitely make a man angry, but it was a rare compliment to Kill Qianmo, who was so beautiful, and because of this, he had a cold temperament and a little more pity for Xiao Gu.

But unfortunately, after the success of killing Qianmo, it was a temporary ceiling for actor Marco, and after that, all the labels about Marco could not be separated from "Sister Hua". After that, Marco also made different attempts, acting in the rich second generation in modern dramas, also acting in youth blood dramas, and also exploring in suspense dramas, but unfortunately there were no more splashes.

In the suspense drama "Breaking the Cocoon" that just went LIVE, Marco starred as a special character, playing the attending physician of neurosurgery, a handsome guy in the ascetic department, Wen Bai, and the forensic doctor Jin Lingyi’s teacher and friend have a little different feelings, but this time Marco has no aura, and can only play a supporting role for the newcomer Zhang Yao. After taking off the ancient costume, Marco’s shape is slightly thin, and there are not many eye-catching places. In addition, the character itself is a bit cold, and it is difficult to give people a good impression at first glance.

On the contrary, the role of Wenbai itself is full of expectations. Judging from the current broadcast plot, he and the male protagonist Tan Jingtian played by Zhang Yao have many common interests and hobbies, and even nightmares are similar, which makes people curious about their relationship. However, from the perspective of the debut time and status in the circle, it is indeed a bit overkill to let Ma Ke play a supporting role for the rookie actor Zhang Yao, which is probably why the drama specially marked the special role.

Regardless of Marco’s embarrassment in the play, "Breaking the Cocoon" is a slightly interesting suspense drama. The biggest selling point is naturally the insect crime-solving method, which finds clues related to insects from unremarkable cases and uses the professional knowledge of the male protagonist to assist the police in solving the case. This novel and fascinating way of expression is a big point to watch. But the stereotype that this drama does not escape is that it unilaterally exaggerates the role of this place from which direction, and treats other people as decorations. How to balance the weight of the play is still debatable.

In fact, many people only know the embarrassment of Marco after he became popular, but they don’t necessarily know the anecdote about his entry into the entertainment industry. Marco’s older brother, Maher, is also an actor. Although he has no particularly impressive roles so far, he is a supporting role in Guo Jingyu’s series. He has appeared in "Red Lady", "Dog Stick", "Brave Heart" and "Great Yangge". After his brother was admitted to the Beijing Film Academy, he accidentally took his younger brother to meet the director. He didn’t expect that Marco would be accidentally photographed and enter the entertainment industry. Before starring in "Flower Qiangu", he had played Xiaoxue’s "Gossip Boyfriend" in "Family with Children".

The two brothers bravely ventured into the entertainment industry, and it stands to reason that they could support each other, but their appearance was too different, and the pace of development in the circle was also inconsistent. Compared with his brother, Marco was obviously lucky, at least he had been a big hit, but unfortunately, the role of "Killing Qianmo" was not enough for him to eat for a lifetime, and the flat taste after the explosion was estimated to be not easy to endure. However, due to the limitations of his appearance, it was estimated that it would be difficult for him to become popular, so in addition to playing a small supporting role in a down-to-earth manner, he had already found his own happiness. In 2018, he successfully proposed in "The Most Beautiful Crew", and he had successfully hugged the beauty back. I don’t know if Marco can break through next, but I really look forward to him leaving the label of "beautiful" and "handsome" and relying on his acting skills to find a different path.

There is a "price protection tide" in the automobile market. It is better to fight for price than to fight for value.

  Corporate profits and market share complement each other and play games with each other, and price is the lever.

  While the price war is in full swing, there is a "price protection tide" in the automobile market. Enterprises such as Ideal, Extreme Krypton, Tengshi, Nezha, Zero Run and so on have recently introduced price protection policies, claiming that they will not reduce prices in the next 90 days or even 120 days. If they reduce prices, the difference will be returned to consumers.

  However, some experts said that only after the baptism of price war can enterprises become stronger. For enterprises whose sales volume is sideways and declining, it is meaningless to "protect the price". In the end, not only will the sales volume not go up, but it will also waste the market window and hand over the market share to competitors.

  "Many products of this round of price war diving brand have reached the end of their lives. In the long run, price diving is not the normal state of the industry." Pu Yang, vice president of sales and operation of Weilai, said that the cyclical fluctuation brought by this technological revolution can not be crossed by price war alone, but needs to adhere to brand value. In the long run, the competition among enterprises will return to value creation.

  On the surface, enterprise competition is the competition of products and prices, but the actual competition is the R&D strength, scale effect and vertical integration ability of enterprises. "Geely does not have to participate in the price war." Gan Jiayue, CEO of Geely Automobile Group, believes that only through technological innovation and management ability improvement, can the price war be transformed into a technical war, a service war and a value war, and continue to create value for users, can we truly have a competitive advantage.

  With the changes of automobile industry, traditional automobile enterprises need to invest heavily in the fields of electrification, intelligence and networking, and are under the dual pressures of stable operation and transformation and upgrading. Cui Dongshu, Secretary-General of the All-China Passenger Transport Association, said that it is difficult to make money by selling new energy vehicles at present. Many large car companies rely on the profits of fuel vehicles to support the development of new energy vehicles, and most pure new energy vehicle brands are at a loss period. For large car companies, while stabilizing the sales of fuel vehicles, strengthening the technological innovation on the track of new energy vehicles can win the initiative. Fuel vehicles cannot blindly follow up the price reduction of new energy vehicles caused by multiple factors through "suicide price reduction".

  Moderate downward adjustment of product prices, clearing inventory and properly recovering costs are normal business measures, which are conducive to stimulating consumers’ purchasing demand, but they cannot fall into price wars. In the view of Chen Shihua, deputy secretary-general of China Automobile Association, the price war will not last long, and value for money is the eternal business law.

  "There are many reasons for this round of short-term promotion. Most of the preferential models introduced by enterprises are long-aged, old or unsalable cars. These models have already had considerable preferential prices before this round of promotion. In order to attract attention, increase customers and exaggerate the price reduction, terminal promotion is easy to mislead consumers, and it is necessary to attach great importance to the negative impact of this phenomenon on the development of the industry. " The China Automobile Association calls for providing positive public opinion guidance for the healthy and sustainable development of the automobile industry and creating a good consumer psychology and market atmosphere. In the process of stabilizing growth and promoting consumption, local governments should also adopt appropriate methods to jointly safeguard market order.

  Automobile is an industry with large market, high technical content and refined management, and it is also a highly global industry. At present, the world has entered a new period of turbulent change, and the anti-globalization trend of thought and the risk of geopolitical conflict will inevitably affect the development of the industry. At the same time, the automobile industry is in a critical period of transformation and upgrading. The more in this turbulent change and transformation and upgrading, the more local governments and enterprises should maintain their strategic strength, actively maintain market order and supply chain stability in the industrial chain, lead regional and upstream and downstream enterprises, and jointly build a good industrial development ecology.

  Zhu Huarong, chairman of Changan Automobile, suggested that the state should halve the consumption tax rate of automobiles with a displacement of 2.0L or less in time; Merge the vehicle purchase tax and the vehicle consumption tax, keep one tax, and increase the proportion of local fiscal retention. By reforming the consumption tax and purchase tax, it can not only reduce the burden of consumers to buy cars and expand their consumption, but also help to create a fairer consumption environment, thus guiding the healthy and stable development of the automobile industry.
