Witty Remarks "Strange Stories" Appreciation (1)

Sometimes, a seemingly simple sentence can make people remember the whole news event.

"Like winter wheat meets spring rain"

Fu Bingfeng, executive vice president and secretary general of the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, described the development trend of new energy vehicles in mainland China in 2021

In 2021, the mainland's new energy automobile industry developed rapidly, with sales of 3.521 million units, ranking first in the world for seven consecutive years, and the market share reached 13.4%. Fu Bingfeng, executive vice president and secretary general of the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, described the development trend of new energy vehicles in 2021 as "like winter wheat encountering spring rain".

Entering 2022, new energy vehicles are expected to be more expected, and 5 million vehicles have become a new target. In the new year, the new energy automobile industry should maintain resilience, strive to make breakthroughs, and strive to turn this expectation into reality.

Fu Bingfeng believes that after more than ten years of cultivation, policy power, enterprise innovation, and consumer awareness have deepened, forming a synergy to promote the development of new energy vehicles. Products are becoming more and more abundant, core technologies are more mature, consumer acceptance is stronger, and with the help of intelligent networking, a situation of rapid growth in the field of new energy vehicles has been formed.

The continuous enrichment of products is an important reason for the sales of new energy vehicles to reach a new high. "In the Chinese market, new energy models are extremely rich, covering all models of traditional fuel vehicles." Ouyang Minggao, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, believes that the most commendable and characteristic small electric vehicles are welcomed by the people, and the advantages of surpassing fuel vehicles are also the most obvious. The performance of small electric vehicles in all aspects can already meet the needs of consumers in all aspects.

"Difficulty in charging" has become a bottleneck restricting the rapid development of new energy vehicles. At present, the number of new energy vehicles in the mainland has increased to 7.84 million, accounting for 2.6% of the total number of vehicles in the mainland and about half of the global new energy vehicles. According to the latest data disclosed by the National Development and Reform Commission, at present, there are 810,000 public charging piles nationwide, of which the scale of public charging piles in the top ten regions such as Guangdong and Shanghai accounts for more than 70%, while the construction of charging infrastructure in counties and townships is insufficient. There are 13,800 highway charging piles, mainly concentrated in beijing-Tianjin-Hebei- Lu, Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta and other regions, and have not yet achieved full coverage.

Zhu Huarong, rotating chairman of the China Automobile Association and chairman of Changan Automobile, said that the rapid growth of the new energy vehicle market has put forward new requirements for the optimization of the layout of charging and replacement supporting facilities and the improvement of charging efficiency. We need to re-optimize charging facilities and accelerate the resolution of user convenience needs. This is both the problem of charging pile layout and charging efficiency, which needs to be solved by the government, automobile enterprises and charging enterprises.

According to the Economic Daily

"China is a big country of square dance, and you can see in any city that when the people live happily, they will dance and sing, so I think (square dance) is very good."

Zhang Yimou, director of the opening and closing ceremonies of the Beijing Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games, talked about the design inspiration of the warm-up session

The closely watched opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics was held on the evening of January 22 at the National Stadium "Bird's Nest" for the second rehearsal with makeup. Different from before, this rehearsal carried out a full-process, all-element drill, and brilliant fireworks lit up the night sky of the "Bird's Nest" that night. Zhang Yimou, director of the opening and closing ceremonies of the Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympic Games, introduced the latest preparations for the opening ceremony in an interview with reporters.

It is reported that the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics will officially begin at 8 p.m. on February 4, and before it starts, there will be about 30 minutes of warm-up sessions. In the rehearsal on January 22, the square dance performance in the warm-up session was led by performers who were the youngest 5 years old and the oldest in their 70s, who showed different styles and expressed the expectations of ordinary Chinese people for the Winter Olympics. Zhang Yimou said that unlike the previous hot scenes that invited hosts and stars to perform skewers, the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics did not have a host, and at the same time emphasized the people's nature. "China is a big country of square dance, and you can see in any city that when the people live happily, they will dance and sing, so I think (square dance) is very good."

For the warm-up of this square dance, Zhang Yimou clearly did not look for professional actors at the beginning, but planned to find ordinary people from all over the country. "Later, due to the epidemic situation, the main participants in the performance were mainly Beijing and Hebei, and the personnel were not all 'big mothers', but children, primary and secondary school students, the elderly, etc., and ordinary people of different ages showed themselves on this international stage." The opening ceremony is the fourth day of the Chinese New Year, and I also hope that these ordinary people can show the atmosphere of our New Year to the world. As the sub-director of the warm-up performance, Meng Yan said that this performance can be called "Chinese-style marching square dance". "Our director team has made a careful design to express the passion, heat and emotion of each age, hoping to show our slogan 'Together to the Future' through this expression of 'Chinese-style marching square dance', so that the world can feel our passion and invitation."

Previously, according to Zhang Yimou, taking into account factors such as frugality, cold weather, epidemic prevention and control, the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics was about 100 minutes long and the scale of actors was about 3,000 people, which was really different from the opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympic Games with 4 hours and about 15,000 people.

Since the Bird's Nest does not hold events during the Winter Olympics, this gives the opening and closing ceremonies team more space and time. "Bird's Nest only hosts a total of four ceremonies at the opening and closing ceremonies of the Winter Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, so we were able to enter the stadium very early and make certain changes and upgrades to the venue." Zhang Yimou said. For the new technology in the bird's nest, Zhang Yimou said for example, the actor's trajectory can be captured in real time through the screen on the ground, so as to realize the interaction between the actor and the ground screen. "We discussed this technology at the opening ceremony in 2008, but it wasn't possible at the time, and it can be done now."

The opening ceremony rehearsal of the evening was also partly directed by the audience, some of whom were students from major universities in Beijing, and although they could not bring mobile phones to enter and also had confidentiality requirements for the content of the rehearsal, they also expressed their excitement on social media. "It's high tech! chinoiserie! internationalization! Everyone must watch the opening ceremony when the time comes! "How lucky to watch the rehearsal of the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics on the spot, countless times moved, countless times full of tears!"

Ioannis Exacos, CEO of Olympic Broadcasting Services, also watched the rehearsal for the opening ceremony that evening. He said that the opening ceremony of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics is completely different from the opening ceremony of the Beijing 2008 Summer Olympics, but it is equally touching and impressive, "I believe that you have no reason to miss this opening ceremony." ”

"My wedding will not take place"

New Zealand has entered the "red light" stage of the epidemic Prime Minister Ardern announced the cancellation of his wedding

According to Reuters and other foreign media reported on January 23, New Zealand Prime Minister Jessinda Ardern told reporters that she had cancelled her wedding due to the country's implementation of new restrictions to slow the community spread of the Ami Kerong mutation. She also announced that the whole of New Zealand has entered the "red light" stage of the epidemic.

Since the engagement in 2019, netizens have been looking forward to Ardern's wedding date. On May 5, 2021, she revealed that the wedding had been set for a date, but did not disclose specific plans.

Later, the Delta mutation led to another outbreak of COVID-19, and Auckland began a blockade that lasted for more than 4 months. Ardern has revealed that her wedding plan with her fiancé "didn't go well" due to a busy schedule. During this time, their wedding venues also changed, from restaurants to more exclusive luxury estates.

Just when netizens were speculating about when her wedding date would be held, who would be invited, and what form it would take, she suddenly announced that the wedding was canceled.

In an interview with reporters, she said: "My wedding will not be held. She also added that she was sorry for those who had suffered similar situations. Asked by reporters how she felt about canceling the wedding, Ardern replied, "This is life. No different from thousands of other New Zealanders, I have been devastated by the pandemic. One of the most distressing things is that sometimes when their loved ones are seriously ill, they are unable to be with them. This will far outweigh any grief I've experienced. ”

In 2012, Ardern and Gayford met briefly for the first time at the Restaurant of the Year Awards ceremony in Auckland. At the time, Gafford was a television host, and Ardern was already in politics.

In 2013, Gayford and Ardern got in touch again due to work reasons. Ardern and Gayford then began dating, when Ardern was a member of Congress and Gayford was the host of the fishing show.

On 1 August 2017, Ardern became Leader of the Labour Party and was subsequently elected Prime Minister of New Zealand, and Gayford became "Mr. Quasi-First".

In January 2018, Ardern announced that she was pregnant. "From now on, I will be the 'Prime Minister' and 'Mother', while Gafford will be the 'Fishing Guru' and 'Full-Time Father'," she said. ”

On June 21, 2018, their daughter was born. As a result, Ardern became the second national female leader in the world to give birth during his reign, and Gafford was promoted to "New Zealand's first grandfather".

During Easter 2019, Gayford formally proposed to Ardern on the top of Mokotahi Hill in Hawkes Bay.

After the successful marriage proposal, the sudden outbreak of the new crown epidemic disrupted the wedding plan, and the wedding date was postponed again and again. Now, their daughters are almost 3 years old, and the long-awaited wedding of netizens has finally been canceled.
