　　　 Following the grand Beijing premiere, the film Gravity held a press conference in Shanghai on March 30th. The film director Zhao Tianyu made appearances with starring Karen Mok, Dai Liren, Duan Bowen and Zoo, and interacted with the live media enthusiastically. At the meeting scene, Karen Mok and Dai Liren, who suffered a "marriage crisis" in the film, shared the story about the "signal lamp" with the guests present, vividly reflecting the resonant topics such as "derailment", "betrayal" and "trust".

Karen Mok Dai Liren encounters a "marriage trap" and sees the truth in the love disaster.

　　　 The urban love blockbuster "Gravitation", which will be released nationwide on April 8, is produced by Angel Wing (Beijing) Film Investment Co., Ltd., China Film Co., Ltd., Dadi Times Culture Communication (Beijing) Co., Ltd. and Dadi Entertainment Co., Ltd., and performed by powerful actors from Karen Mok, Zhang Jingchu, Guo Tao, Dai Liren, Wen Zhang, Bai Baihe, Duan Bowen and Zoo. Following the grand premiere in Beijing on March 29th, the film starring Karen Mok, Dai Liren, Zoo and Duan Bowen, as well as the director Zhao Tianyu, immediately moved to the Shanghai media to meet and interact with the media present to discuss the mysterious "law of love gravity" in the film. On the day of the meeting in Shanghai, Karen Mok and Dai Liren shared all kinds of disasters they encountered under the "marriage trap" with the guests present, and vividly reflected such resonant topics as "cheating", "betrayal" and "trust".
When it comes to their roles in the film, Karen Mok and Dai Liren "admit their mistakes" at the scene. Karen Mok, a "bad wife", said that her betrayal of her husband in the film led to a marriage tragedy. Dai Liren claimed to be a "villain" and tried his best to retaliate against his wife’s "cheating", which almost led to a big mistake. But both of them finally realized the importance of each other to themselves and truly understood the importance of cherishing and trusting in love.

Authoritative production joins Gravity to create "the only love blockbuster this spring"

　　　 In addition to inviting heavyweight stars from across the Taiwan Strait and three places to participate, the powerful behind-the-scenes lineup of the emotional masterpiece Gravity should not be underestimated. The film was directed by Zhao Tianyu, a well-known director who successfully entered the Chicago Film Festival. It also brought together Cao Yu, the best cinematographer of the Golden Horse Award, and Chi-Leung Kwong, the two top action directors in Asia, Bruce Law and Wai Tung, to design and shoot big scenes such as crashes and skydiving. Greg Gasson, the world’s first aerial photographer, took the high-altitude skydiving photography, and invited production designer Hao Yi, who has made many hit movies, and Zhang Yang, the sound engineer who has been recording and mixing all Jia Zhangke’s films so far.

　　　 As for the soundtrack of the film, Gravitation bought the classic song Creep by the famous British band radio commander Radiohead as the opening song of the film and the ending song of the article and Bai Baihe’s "encounter" story, and chose the heroine Karen Mok’s "Baby" as the ending song, which decorated the ubiquitous "love gravity" in the film with beautiful melody and lyrics from beginning to end, bringing the audience a resonant audio-visual feast.
　
Gravitation pays attention to social topics and is praised for being grounded.

　　　 As an urban love blockbuster, Gravitation combines many complex elements, such as suspense, action, limit and love, and tells the mysterious love story of "meeting, making a baby, cheating and rebirth" between four couples with different life experiences under the ubiquitous "love gravity".

　　　 Different from other traditional romantic films, colleagues describing love in Gravity also discussed many social hot topics, and some film critics and people in the industry who took the lead in watching the film especially praised the film for being "grounded". In the film, Guo Tao and Zhang Jingchu, a young couple, go to great lengths to have a perfect baby. In the real society, many young white-collar couples are facing such troubles. With the help of their stories, a main topic of the film is also brought up: Do you want to have sex or make a baby? In the end, the two people in the film get the answer that love can’t be designed, and I believe that the audience sitting in the cinema will get the same feeling. It turns out that sincerity and truth are still the dominant forces in husband and wife life. Similarly, the stories of encounter, infidelity and rebirth have resonated with the audience respectively. In the process of creation, director Zhao Tianyu designed many bridges, trying to make the story to the extreme and push the drama to the climax. Whether it is a tragedy or a comedy, the story must come from life, and if you want to impress the audience, you must get resonance.

　　"On July 30th, the Ministry of Education issued a document clarifying the scope of two types of training. Even so, the boundary dispute between disciplines and non-disciplines still exists. " The WeChat public account of the Education Bureau of Wucheng District, Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province recently published an article saying that most industries and parents are in a wait-and-see and anxious state, fearing that some training institutions will "scratch the ball" and sell dog meat, leading to the "double reduction" work becoming formalism. Jinhua City is the first pilot city of "double reduction" in Zhejiang Province, and Wucheng, as the main city of Jinhua, ran out of the service "acceleration" in the face of the "double reduction" landing problem.

　　On the morning of September 7th, Wucheng District carried out the first batch of appraisal and audit of non-discipline training projects, and conducted on-site audit of two fuzzy discipline training projects of "Young English Education", which was also the first time in the whole province.

In the comprehensive investigation of more than 300 off-campus training institutions within its jurisdiction, the bureau found that some discipline training institutions want to seek transformation, but they are trapped in the ambiguity of the concept of non-discipline training programs and are in an embarrassing situation of confusion and anxiety. At the same time, parents also showed a state of hesitation at the beginning of the new semester, trying to expand their children’s comprehensive quality, but worried that they accidentally violated national policies.

　　To this end, Wucheng District made unified arrangements and took active actions. The Wucheng District Discipline Appraisal Committee was established under the leadership of the District Education Bureau, and an audit expert group was formed by discipline experts, industry experts and legal experts. The Notice on Doing a Good Job in Auditing and Confirming Non-discipline Training Projects of Off-campus Training Institutions in Wucheng District of Jinhua City was issued, and the Appraisal Standard for Non-discipline Training Projects of Off-campus Training Institutions in Compulsory Education in Wucheng District (Trial) was formulated and promulgated.

　　Wucheng District Discipline Appraisal Working Committee is headed by the Director of Education Bureau, and consists of 9 discipline appraisal expert groups of different classes and disciplines. After the training institution submits a written appraisal application and supporting materials to the District Education Bureau, the corresponding expert group will respond quickly, adhere to the principles of compliance, independence and scientificity, and conduct a comprehensive appraisal and audit of the fuzzy subject training program according to the actual training purpose, content, method and evaluation of the institution by reviewing the application materials, on-the-spot inspection of school running, and random survey of students and parents.

　　Chuying Education is the first off-campus training institution in Jinhua to apply for appraisal, and the first appraisal form of non-discipline training projects in Jinhua was produced in this appraisal. However, another appraisal application submitted by Chuying Education made the expert group difficult.

　　According to a report in Zhejiang Daily, Zhuang Zhengbiao, the head of Xiaoying Education Institution, said that after the "double reduction", the institution cancelled all disciplines and set up 18 non-discipline training programs in three categories: art, science and technology and sports. But scientific exploration — Whether the training contents of the two courses "Crazy Doctor" and "Oral Chinese Expression Training" overlap with the national curriculum standards, the team was still not sure after many discussions, so they applied to the Wucheng District Discipline Appraisal Expert Group for appraisal.

　　"After reviewing and judging, we believe that" Scientific Exploration — Although the knowledge points in the teaching content of Dr. Crazy are related to the textbook, they do not emphasize knowledge orientation and are not offered for exams. This course pays more attention to students’ practical operation, rather than focusing on test questions, explanations of knowledge points and repeated exercises. " Wu Xiangdong, head of the primary school science expert group, said that at the same time, the evaluation of students in this course is mainly based on the phenotypic evaluation mechanism, and it does not involve the contents related to academic and subject test scores.

　　In the end, three primary school science experts unanimously decided that this course was a non-disciplinary training program, and signed their names on the first appraisal conclusion sheet of non-disciplinary training program in Jinhua.

　　In contrast, because some of the contents involve subject elements, it is a bit troublesome to judge and judge Oral Chinese Expression Training.

　　Chen Zheng, head of the primary school Chinese expert group, said that it was still difficult to give an appraisal conclusion after he and two other experts repeatedly discussed and compared the policy documents. With a cautious attitude, the expert group decided to submit the case to the municipal discipline appraisal expert group for further appraisal.

　　The Paper noted that the Ministry of Education had previously issued the Notice on Further Defining the Scope of Off-campus Training in Compulsory Education, which required that ethics and the rule of law, Chinese, history, geography, mathematics, foreign languages (English, Japanese, Russian), physics, chemistry and biology should be managed according to the disciplines. The off-campus training for the learning content stipulated in the national curriculum standards of the above disciplines is included in the discipline category for management. However, sports (or sports and health), art (or music and fine arts) and comprehensive practical activities (including information technology education, labor and technical education) are managed according to non-disciplinary categories.

　　Just like the complicated case of Jinhua, Zhejiang Province, it is a highly professional job to distinguish between discipline and non-discipline training, which is not simple in practice.

　　The Ministry of Education has asked all localities to organize relevant experts to make comprehensive judgments on various training programs according to their actual training purposes, training contents and training methods. If the training is essentially a specialized study of the subject-related contents of these nine disciplines, emphasizing the orientation of subject knowledge and serving the entrance examination, and unilaterally strengthening the skills training of listening, speaking, reading, writing and arithmetic in related disciplines, then it should be managed according to the subject category. In the next step, the Ministry of Education will further guide local governments to set up expert groups, conduct audits in strict accordance with national curriculum plans and standards, and strengthen the scientific and normative nature of this work.

　　Jinzhou, Liaoning Province: Before the results are unknown, you may not run schools according to non-discipline categories.

　　The Paper noted that in recent days, many areas of the country are promoting the identification of disciplines and non-disciplines.

　　For example, the news of the WeChat public account "Jinzhou Education" on September 7 showed that the Office of the Leading Group for "Double Reduction" in Jinzhou City, Liaoning Province pointed out in the Notice on Doing a Good Job in the Examination and Confirmation of Non-discipline Training Projects of Off-campus Training Institutions in Jinzhou City that individual off-campus training institutions that are not clearly subject or non-discipline can submit the Application Form for Examination and Confirmation of Non-discipline Training of Off-campus Training Institutions and related supporting materials to the local education authorities to apply for examination and confirmation of non-discipline training content. At the city, county (city) and district levels, an off-campus education and training course review expert committee led by the education administrative department and attended by teaching and research personnel, subject experts and industry experts is established.Review the application materials submitted by off-campus training institutions, and if necessary, conduct on-site audit, and the audit results shall give a clear "discipline" or "non-discipline" conclusion.

　　It is worth mentioning that the "non-discipline scope" divided by Jinzhou City includes: sports (or sports and health), arts (or music and fine arts) and comprehensive practical activities (including information technology education, labor and technical education) which are managed according to non-discipline categories. Other learning contents, which are in line with the requirements of national laws and regulations and the laws of learners’ physical and mental development, are designed to enhance students’ core literacy through training, cultivate students’ hobbies, innovative spirit and practical ability, and serve students’ individualized and all-round development. Such training items are recognized as non-disciplinary training.

　　Jinzhou City "Double Reduction" Work Leading Group Office also stated that all training institutions should implement the main responsibility, review and judge the types of training services they implement, and actively carry out training activities in accordance with the relevant management requirements of disciplines or non-disciplines to ensure that external publicity is consistent with the actual training services.Before the results of the examination and confirmation of the training programs are not clear, the applicant institution may not run schools according to non-discipline categories.

　　On September 2nd, Tianjin Binhai New Area held a policy conference for off-campus education and training institutions. At the meeting, it was introduced that composition, reading, Chinese studies, new concepts, English stage plays and English picture books belong to one-sided strengthening of skills training in listening, speaking, reading, writing and calculation in related disciplines, so they belong to disciplines; Street dance, drama performance and speech eloquence belong to the non-disciplinary category of culture and art; Lego, programming and computer software belong to science and technology non-discipline category; Higher vocational education, postgraduate postgraduate entrance examination training, adult English and other training targets are people above the high school stage, which are not within the scope of the "double reduction" for primary and secondary school students and preschool children aged 3-6.

　　For others that are difficult to judge at the moment, the New District Education and Sports Bureau will organize relevant experts to make comprehensive judgments according to the requirements of the Ministry of Education.

　　In addition, the Chongqing Municipal Education Commission, the Municipal Market Supervision Administration and the Civil Affairs Bureau recently jointly issued the Notice on Further Reducing the Off-campus Training Burden of Students in Compulsory Education. This notice clarifies that all districts and counties have established an expert group to review and identify the training content of off-campus training institutions, and assist the district and county education administrative departments to carry out the identification of disciplinary and non-disciplinary institutions, the filing and supervision of training content. When disciplinary and non-disciplinary institutions are established, the expert group will identify the categories of off-campus training services in accordance with the Notice of the General Office of the Ministry of Education on Further Defining the Scope of Disciplinary and Non-disciplinary Training in Compulsory Education, the Curriculum Guidelines for Comprehensive Practical Activities in Primary and Secondary Schools, and the national curriculum plan and curriculum standards for basic education.

　　In order to accurately distinguish the scope of off-campus training between disciplines and non-disciplines, Zhenjiang Education Bureau of Jiangsu Province also held a seminar on category identification of off-campus training projects on September 3.

　　Wang Jian, the leader in charge of the Education Bureau, put forward three requirements for the category identification of off-campus training programs: First, "study and study". Category identification requires in-depth study and study of policy documents, and a refined plan is formulated, which reflects the characteristics and highlights of Zhenjiang as a pilot city; The second is "knowing difficulties and not being afraid of difficulties." The responsible departments in all regions should stick to their original intentions, stick to the bottom line, dare to gnaw at the hard bones in the work of "double reduction", objectively and fairly implement the appraisal standards for off-campus training categories, and strengthen normalized supervision; The third is "think carefully and do it". The responsible departments in all regions should make scientific arrangements and steadily and orderly promote the examination, acceptance and transformation of training institutions.

CCTV News:On October 1st, Beijing time, Lagarde, President of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), announced that RMB had officially joined the Special Drawing Rights (SDR) currency basket, with a weight of 10.92%. The RMB has become the fifth "basket" currency after the US dollar, the euro, the Japanese yen and the British pound, and is the only emerging economy currency in the new SDR basket. It marks that RMB ranks among the international reserve currencies.

This is an important page in the process of RMB internationalization. IMF Managing Director Lagarde has said that this move is an important milestone in bringing China’s economy into the global financial system, and it is also an affirmation of China’s monetary and financial system reform in the past few years.

This is actually a "marriage" set at the end of last year.

On November 30, 2015, the IMF announced the inclusion of RMB in the SDR currency basket, but gave a 10-month preparation period. During the 10-month preparation period, the Bank of China and major financial institutions made various preparations for the offshore RMB, and the International Monetary Fund also set up a circulation platform and a new management structure for the RMB internationally.

Everything is ready, and the new SDR basket takes effect today (October 1).

RMB becomes the third largest currency of SDR.

After the RMB entered the basket, the proportion in the SDR basket was 10.92%, and the weight of the other four currencies decreased accordingly. The weight of RMB surpassed that of Japanese yen and British pound and became the third largest currency in SDR currency basket.

Many people may ask, SDR sounds so professional. Is it a currency? What is a "basket"? What does the inclusion of SDR mean for RMB? What benefits can we get from the government, enterprises and ordinary people?

What is SDR?

SDR is special drawing right, which is an international reserve asset created by the International Monetary Fund in 1969 to supplement the official reserves of member countries. Although it is an asset, it can’t find any SDR currency with face value. It is just a unit of account.

Although SDR itself is not money, it can be used as money.

As a reserve asset, it is held by all countries, and can also be used for bookkeeping, repayment and interest payment in all countries. The value of SDR is determined by the five currencies that have been included in this currency basket: USD, EUR, RMB, GBP and JPY. Once there is demand, member countries can convert SDR in their accounts into these five currencies and withdraw them. At present, the IMF has created a total of 204.1 billion SDR, equivalent to about 285.4 billion US dollars.

Still don’t understand? Xiaobian, let’s make an analogy again. Special Drawing Rights (SDR) is like a credit card that can be withdrawn from the IMF. Of course, there is no money on the card, just a line. When an IMF member is in financial difficulties and in a hurry to use money, it can apply to the IMF to swipe this "credit card" in exchange for a basket of currencies, and then the IMF will arrange for foreign exchange-rich member States to exchange it.

With the development of China’s economy to the world, RMB has been used in various occasions around the world. However, before that, the IMF basket had not been loaded with RMB, and the SDR card could not be swiped, which was obviously divorced from the development of the global economy. Starting today, countries that often use RMB in international payments can easily exchange SDR for RMB directly at the IMF.

Zhu Min reveals the secret: the thrilling moment before "entering the basket"

In 2015, Zhu Min, as the vice president of IMF, experienced the critical moment when RMB was included in SDR. Especially last summer, China’s stock market and foreign exchange market fluctuated violently, which put great pressure on whether RMB can successfully join SDR. In an exclusive interview with CCTV, Zhu Min revealed that thrilling moment.

Zhu Min, former vice president of the International Monetary Fund

"The International Monetary Fund just fryers. If the foreign exchange market and the stock market will be so volatile, will this currency be a stable currency? This pressure is enormous. " Zhu Min recalled.

At the critical moment, the People’s Bank of China, the Ministry of Finance and other departments made statements one after another, promising to maintain the stability of the RMB exchange rate and continue to unswervingly promote financial reform. Subsequently, the RMB exchange rate continued to fluctuate in a stable range and entered a relatively stable state. On November 30, 2015, the Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund unanimously approved the inclusion of RMB in the SDR currency basket.

On that day, Zhu Min was very happy. "We made a cake symbolizing SDR. We divide the pound, the yen, the dollar and the euro equally, but putting the RMB in it is particularly large, which shows the vitality of emerging currencies. Lagarde also kissed the automatic knife, and finally we ate this cake and ate it happily. "

What are the benefits of RMB joining SDR?

1. Enhance the international recognition of RMB.

IMF is the most important economic platform in the world today. If a country’s currency is included in the IMF’s currency basket, it will gain international recognition more quickly. This is a kind of certification and an identity, which means that the status of RMB as a reserve currency is officially recognized.

2. Increase the speed of RMB internationalization.

After RMB joins SDR, the world’s major central banks will reconfigure their foreign exchange reserves according to the composition of SDR currency basket. It is roughly estimated that this part of the capital flowing into RMB assets will exceed 10 billion US dollars. Member States can choose RMB to pay their shares to the IMF, or they can ask the IMF to allocate funds to them in RMB, and member States can also choose to repay in RMB. All these have increased the use of RMB and enhanced China’s competitiveness.

3. Accelerate China enterprises to "go global"

In the process of promoting the "Belt and Road" and AIIB projects in China, with the increasing use and acceptance of RMB labeled "SDR", the exchange rate risk and transaction cost in intra-regional trade and investment will be further reduced, thus escorting Chinese enterprises to "go global".

4. China’s financial market will be more open.

The RMB has been "among" the SDR basket, which means that the international community will look at China’s financial system reform and opening up with a higher standard and international monetary responsibility. Therefore, RMB’s entry into SDR will not happen once and for all. China needs to continue the process of reform and opening up, so as to make RMB a veritable SDR currency.

5. Contribute to global financial stability

After joining SDR, RMB will gradually develop into one of the major currencies in the world. In the future, there may be a "three-legged" situation of USD, EUR and RMB, which will help to promote the diversification of the international monetary system and improve its stability and resilience. At the same time, the entry of emerging market currencies into the SDR currency basket will help to improve the previous pattern of using only developed countries’ currencies as reserve currencies and enhance the representativeness and attractiveness of SDR itself. In addition, RMB’s participation in SDR will also help to improve the stability of SDR.

What impact does joining SDR have on ordinary people?

RMB’s entry into SDR is naturally good news for ordinary people, and it is very close to the lives of ordinary people.

Joining SDR will improve the credibility of RMB and its position in the global monetary system, which will make our RMB account better used in payment and consumption. There will be more organizations and individuals around the world willing to accept our UnionPay cards, even Alipay. However, if you want to spend RMB around the world casually, it may be just a concept. You must also swipe your card or change local currency to spend.

It is also good for investment. With the internationalization of RMB, it will be as convenient for us to invest in American and European stock markets and bond markets in the world as it is at home. If you can use RMB to finance overseas, it will be beneficial to the management of exchange rate risk. The liquidity of RMB will be enhanced, the related transaction cost of RMB will be reduced, and the financial cost of corresponding management will also be reduced, which has many benefits.

Some fallacies about RMB joining SDR

One of the fallacies: you don’t need to exchange money when you go abroad.

This is an absurdly wrong but the most widespread fallacy: "Traveling when you leave will no longer be a dream. Traveling and shopping abroad can be settled directly in RMB, and you don’t need to exchange foreign exchange, and you don’t have to worry about exchange rate costs and risks."

For example, the US dollar accounts for up to 41.73% of SDR. When Americans go to China, Japan and Australia, can they take taxis, eat and shop directly with US dollars without changing foreign exchange? Obviously not. How to use money in other sovereign countries is determined by sovereign countries and has nothing to do with joining SDR.

Myth 2: After joining SDR, the RMB will depreciate sharply.

Whether the RMB depreciates or not basically depends on the economic situation in China and has little to do with SDR. In fact, with the further increase of international investors’ demand for RMB bond assets, the corresponding capital inflow will help the RMB exchange rate to remain stable.

Myth 3: After joining SDR, RMB has finally become an international currency.

The inclusion of RMB in SDR is indeed worth celebrating and will bring many benefits. However, we must treat all this rationally and don’t think that everything will be fine if we include SDR. In fact, the internationalization of RMB is a long-term process, and its cycle will last for decades, and the journey of RMB becoming an international currency has just begun. As time goes by, as long as we continue to promote financial reform, the RMB is bound to become one of the most important international currencies in the future.

A few days ago, I wrote an article saying that the Xingtu brand in 2020 was a complete failure. The reason was that not only did it not sell as well as the Lynk & Co and WEY brands of the same level, but it also had many problems with its own development. So is it worth paying for such a brand at the moment? The answer is of course not.

However, just when we all thought that Chery Xingrui was going to "break the can", we didn’t expect that in early January 2021, Chery Xingtu officially held the launch + pre-sale conference of the 390T model. Among them, the Xingtu VX, which has been fired for a long time, has finally officially announced the Chinese name – "Lanyue". So far, the final name of Xingtu VX has also been officially determined.

Why is it named Xingtu "Calling the Moon"? According to the manufacturer’s personnel, the word "Calling the Moon" comes from Mao Zedong’s "Water Turning Song Head · Returning to Jinggangshan" "You can go up to the moon in nine days, you can go down to the five oceans to catch turtles, talk and laugh, and be triumphant." This verse. The reason why Chery Xingtu named VX "Calling the Moon" is also the meaning of wanting to go to the sea of stars with users.

Recall that some time ago, Chery overturned the car at the launch of the Arrizo 5 PLUS new car, and put the advertising slogan "Men love Ozawa, it’s the same with or without Maria" directly on the big screen. The Xingtu brand was much more mature and stable in dealing with the official launch of the VX and the announcement of the final name "Rangyue".

Of course, the "vulgar marketing" of Chery Arrizo 5 PLUS may be the blame for the execution company, but if you really want to be held accountable, some of Chery’s leaders are not responsible? I am afraid that he will have to be punished for the crime of dereliction of duty and inadequate supervision. From this, it can be seen that the chaos of Chery’s internal management is indeed different. Fortunately, the name of Xingtu Lanyue did not "turn over", and this time Chery also took out the "baby" at the bottom of the pressure box – the new 2.0T turbocharged engine.

Chery 2.0TGDI engine

We all know that Chery has been criticized for not having a decent 2.0T engine, whether it is 1.5T or 1.6T, in the eyes of consumers, there is no 2.0T that is more kind. Because of this, Chery’s engine has become the point of complaint for many people. Now, the new 2.0T engine has finally been "killed", and the first model equipped with this power is Chery’s Star Road to the Moon, so can the Star Road to the Moon be successful? Let’s take a brief look at it today!

Appearance: Quite (configuration | inquiry), but it cannot stand scrutiny

As the largest SUV of Chery’s Xingtu brand, some people say that the appearance of Xingtu Lanyue is very atmospheric, and even has the sense of Highlander. And I can only agree with half of this statement. Indeed, the square shape of Xingtu Lanyue makes it look really burly. Coupled with the slender headlights and the chrome-plated trim of Xingtu brand EXEED, the whole thing has a feeling of not being angry and arrogant.

However, I still have to say that in addition to the slightly "silly" shape, the front face of Xingtu Lanyue is not very able to stand up to scrutiny. First of all, the three horizontal chrome-plated decorative strips do not seem very delicate, and there is even some intention of the intake grille to design the intake grille, so I think the design here is not very harmonious.

Starway Moon Headlights

Tiggo 8PLUS headlights

Secondly, although the headlights are somewhat different from the Tiggo 8 PLUS model, the discerning person can tell at a glance that this is also the result of changing the soup without changing the medicine. Whether it is the position or size of the headlights, it is actually just changing the internal structure of the light source. Therefore, it seems that I don’t think the front face of Xingtu Lunar is very good-looking, and with such a subjective argument, naturally I will not be very willing to buy this car.

Of course, to be sure, as the flagship SUV of the Xingtu brand, the body size of Xingtu Lanyue is still very outstanding. The length, width and height reach 4970/1940/1795mm, and the wheelbase also reaches 2900mm, which is a proper medium and large SUV size. Compared with Highlander, it is also a circle larger, and it is also a seven-seat layout of 2 + 3 + 2, which may be loved by consumers in the future.

Interior: Still family-style design, and Xingtu seems confident

To be honest, when Mercedes-Benz first used the dual-screen design in the interior, I thought it was quite amazing, but after a number of domestic brands followed the trend to create this kind of interior, I didn’t like it. Maybe it’s a trend, but I don’t belong to the type of person who follows the trend in my bones, so when Xingtu Lanyue is still this kind of integrated screen design, my first subjective judgment is against it.

Admittedly, Chery Xingtu had done a lot of work for the interior of this Lanyue, such as the high imaging effect and resolution of the dual screen. The air-conditioning panel was also operated by touch, and the shift lever had also become an electronic lever design, which did look very technological. But as a flagship SUV, if it only achieved these things, it was obviously not enough.

Therefore, we have seen an L2-level autonomous driving assistance system in the configuration of Star Trail, which can enable ACC adaptive cruise, FCW front collision warning (pedestrian, bicycle identification), LKA lane keeping, TJA traffic congestion assistance, and other functions.

This is not the end. Chery has also added traffic sign recognition, blind spot monitoring, rear collision warning, HUD head-up display, 64-color ambient light, Sony audio and other configurations to it. The built-in Lion 4.0 Lion Zhiyun system can also support Apple CarPlay, automatic speech recognition and other functions. In addition, AR enhanced real-life navigation functions will also appear on the car. Let’s look at it again. The configuration of Xingtu Lanyue is still very strong, and it has maintained the high configuration of domestic cars as always.

But I still can’t help but want to complain a few words is, just rely on this set of interior to impress consumers to spend more than 190,000 budget to buy you?

Space: 2 + 3 + 2 layout for the whole series, the opponent is targeting the "medium-sized SUV overlord" Highlander

If Highlander didn’t have extremely high quality and late-stage value retention, then it wouldn’t be so durable. Then can Chery Star Road Moon Ranging achieve this? From a spatial perspective, the seat layout of the Moon Ranging and Highlander are each other, with three people sitting in the second row in the middle and two people sitting in the last third row. Visually, the actual space is not small, and the level should not be worse than Highlander.

And for this approach of Xingtu Lanyue to benchmark the Highlander, I can only say that "the newborn calf is not afraid of the tiger", and the afterlife is fearsome. After all, the last model that clamored to take down the Highlander was still GAC (configuration | inquiry). Now the Highlander is still in good condition, but the Trumpchi GS8 is getting worse and worse, which really makes the outside world laugh out loud. Therefore, whether Xingtu Lanyue follows in the footsteps of the Bu Trumpchi GS8 or breaks out a bloody path depends on its subsequent sales after its listing.

Power: 2.0T engine for the first time, with a maximum power of 254 horsepower

If the points in front of Xingtu Lunar are not enough to impress you, then I wonder if Chery’s new 2.0T engine for Xingtu Lunar can arouse your appetite?

It is reported that the 2.0T engine (390T model) of Xingtu Lanyue can reach a maximum power of 254 horsepower and a peak torque of 390 Nm. Compared with Highlander’s 2.0T engine, it is 34 horsepower more and 40 Nm more in torque. With the advent of Chery’s 2.0T engine, people can no longer complain that Chery does not have a 2.0T engine in the future. This is a breakthrough. In addition, the old 1.6T engine (290T) will still be selected as a low-end model, with a maximum power of 197 horsepower and a peak torque of 290 Nm. The transmission is a uniformly matched 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

According to the manufacturer, Chery’s 2.0T engine is Chery’s latest technological achievement. It is based on three major R & D centers in Europe and China (Wuhu, Shanghai). Based on Chery’s 22-year engine forward research and development capabilities, it has the advantages of energy saving, silence, reliable quality, environmental protection, and lightweight. It is worth mentioning that Xingtu Lanyue is the first model equipped with this engine, and its thermal efficiency has reached 38%. So far, we are even more looking forward to its actual performance in the future.

Written at the end: Fortunately, the domestic brand high-end car market has finally seen a medium and large SUV like Xingtu Lanyue, which has a domineering appearance, exquisite interior, good space performance, and finally a strong 2.0T engine, so it should be congratulated. But at the same time, we also want to say that the pre-sale price of 19.00-23 0 yuan currently given by Chery Xingtu Lanyue is a bit too high?

You know, the independent brand has just set foot in the high-end market of the 200,000 level. Although the previous Lynk 01 and WEY VV7 have been recognized, the sales volume is not very high. So the pre-sale price of the 190,000 is set at the beginning of Xingtu Lanyue, is it a bit too high? We very much hope to see domestic high-end brands able to break through the siege, but the practice of setting a high price at the beginning, is it blind confidence or real strength? Everything will be answered for you after we test drive the Xingtu Lanyue. (Edited by Youshi Auto Dazhuo)

In the high class presented flowers on the stage and took a group photo with the master.

1905 movie network news　 On October 28th, the youth song and dance film "Wings of Singing" premiered in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. The film’s creators all attended, watched the movie with the audience and shared their creative experience after the screening.

The film Wings of Singing tells a touching story of young people of three different nationalities who walk north and south of Tianshan Mountain with musical dreams, and draw creative inspiration from the rich music, dance culture and fiery life of people of all ethnic groups, and finally realize their musical dreams. According to Gao Huang Gang, the general director and producer, Wings of Singing is an attempt to explore China’s song and dance films. The creative team hopes to bear the rich culture and beautiful scenery of Xinjiang with its narrative and artistic aesthetic creation.

Gao Huang Gang, director, director and producer of Tianshan Film Studio.

"Wings of Singing" started on May 28th, and the crew traveled more than 20,000 kilometers. Director Abdul Klimu bluntly said that this filming experience was full of difficulties, and the cast members in front of and behind the stage were under considerable pressure, but the result was beautiful: the film recorded the most beautiful scenery in northern and southern Xinjiang with the lens, and also presented the heroic dreams and passions of the characters.

Director Abdul Klimu Abu Lizi

Starring corn, Jiang Yihao and Ma Ang also shared their unforgettable experiences in the filming process of Wings of Singing at the premiere. Jiang Yihao revealed that he and Corn Ti played a pair of brothers in the film: "My role is a bit reckless, and it is also the drama conflict of the whole film."

Corn is deeply touched by the singing and dancing film shooting form of Wings of Singing. Compared with previous works, the integration of song and dance elements puts forward higher requirements for actors. In addition to being familiar with lines every day, they must rehearse the dance in advance. At the scene, the "two brothers" also sang one of the episodes "Snow Lotus" together.

Premiere scene

As a musical, Wings of Singing has also made great efforts in music. Apart from the songs sung by the actors, the film also invited five singers, Huang Qishan, Ju Hongchuan, Aray Aydarhan, Cui Zige and Tusken Tabusse Khan, to sing an episode.

It is reported that "Wings of Singing" will be the first to launch a large-scale screening in Xinjiang, and then officially landed in the national cinema.
