At the end of the retailer, is it media?

This article comes from WeChat WeChat official account:Cross-border talk (id: crossasean), Author: Chloe Wang, original title: "Retail media network, rediscovering the value under the changing situation? 》, the head picture comes from: vision china

Half a year ago, we published an article "Direct or Digital? DTC’s Dilemma and the Way Forward ",which analyzes the difficulties DTC encountered after golden decade, especially Apple’s new privacy policy and Google’s replacement of three-party cookies.(implemented in 2024)It has a direct impact on the accurate advertising model of social media such as Facebook, which leads to the disappearance of classic DTC as the basic premise for the establishment of independent and sustainable business model.

Because the precise locking based on Facebook advertising model basically requires the collection and verification of tripartite data between channels, once the tripartite data cannot be obtained between Apple’s apps and websites through technical means, the past model will face collapse.

However, Facebook and others can’t provide a convincing alternative, and the brand has to find a new way out for this part of advertising.

So the importance of first-hand customers and data is highlighted again in this context.So who has first-hand data? Simply put, it is not someone else, it is a company like Facebook that has a large number of users and user data. Therefore, we can easily understand why they have all made efforts in e-commerce. For example, Facebook/Instagram mentioned several previous e-commerce attempts when the e-commerce business contracted recently:

Facebook hopes to form a commercial "closed loop" with its own first-hand data.(that is, the "closed loop" of advertising effectiveness measurement), judge the user’s purchase link by directly intervening in the transaction without relying on the three-party data, thus completely getting rid of the shackles of Apple’s privacy policy.

Unfortunately, so far, attempts like Facebook have not been successful, and even the e-commerce business has to be contracted because of performance problems. We can also see that,It is difficult to reach the transaction, which makes Facebook’s user data may be sophisticated enough in behavior analysis, but it cannot build a complete business closed loop.

On the other hand, a recent acquisition has attracted our attention.

Hero Cosmetics was acquired.

Hero Cosmetics started in Amazon in 2017, then landed in offline retail stores such as Target, CVS, Ulta Beauty and Urban Outfitters, and launched DTC independent station in 2018.(using Shopify Plus service). Hero’s sales in 2021 was $115 million, its estimated revenue in 2022 was $140 million, and EBITDA in the past 12 months was $45 million.

The purchase price of $630 million means that Hero has become the third Amazon native brand with a purchase price of more than $500 million.(The first two occurred before and after the outbreak of the market boom)It also means 14 times PE, which is quite special in today’s period when listed DTC is still losing money. You know, even SaaS companies, in this year’s situation, the average M&A price is only 3~4 times the annual income.(25 times in previous years).

Hero’s development path is not the traditional typical DTC brand. Although DTC can be said to be one of the components of its business model, it is not the only or mainly dependent model.

In the past, we liked to think of DTC consumer brands as technology companies. For example, companies like Casper seem to have mastered some kind of "technology password", which makes them have the marginal utility and corresponding expansibility of technology companies, but this is not the case.Most DTC companies hold Facebook’s traffic dividend. Once this dividend disappears, these pseudo-technology companies will face the most basic rules of the game in the retail industry: how to achieve profitability is much more important than desperate growth.

The fixed thinking of technology entrepreneurship always pursues the scale of users before considering profits, trying to cover up the losses caused by growth and tell the future prospects of technology companies through the relay of capital. However, once DTC carnival based on venture capital injection and Facebook traffic bonus comes to an abrupt end, it will eventually be unsustainable in the context of deteriorating economic environment, and valuation can only return to the retail industry.

The inspiration of the Hero acquisition is that,DTC is a part of consumer brand strategy, but today it is not enough to support the success of a brand independently.The original intention of DTC is to establish direct connection with customers, but the connection also has efficiency problems. When the connection cost is higher than that of other channels, the brand it has established with other channels will not be competitive enough. What is important is to effectively show itself where customers are.

Nowadays, all costs, including marketing, customer acquisition, performance delivery, are rising, which means that enterprises have to reduce profit margins in an all-round way. In this context, if we rely on a single channel to obtain customers, but we can’t adjust the marketing customer acquisition cost, DTC mode will become a dead knot. After all, the competition faced by retail is not pure online, and the change of cost structure will not affect everyone to the same extent, which is different from the pure online competition of the Internet. Bright star DTC like Peloton also had to choose to enter Amazon.

However, if Facebook’s advertising era is dying, what alternative does brand marketing have? Hero actually gave the direction.

Closed loop of primary data: Amazon’s advertising business

Perhaps the original intention of many DTC brands is to develop independently from retail giants, but Hero’s story is to put DTC fundamentalism.(idealism)Back to reality, Jurhuyu, CEO of Hero Cosmetics, described it this way:

“Amazon、(offline)Retailers and DTC play different roles in omni-channel strategy. Hero uses DTC data to assist Amazon’s decision-making and gain insights from Target to assist DTC innovation. Use Amazon’s operation to influence DTC’s decision. "

"Amazon’s advantage lies in the highest return on advertising, the lowest cost of customer acquisition and the highest repurchase rate."

In short, we can simply summarize Hero’s path as follows:Amaozn—-comprehensive retailer-—DTC.

Ju mentioned Amazon’s advertising advantages, which shocked everyone in 2021. In this year, Amazon’s advertising revenue reached an astonishing $31 billion, with a growth rate of 32% in the fourth quarter, second only to Internet advertising giants Google and Facebook. The volume and growth rate of Amazon’s advertising business are enough to prove the market’s recognition of its advertising platform.

Furthermore, as Amazon continues to try to expand the service scope of its advertising platform and integrate the core demands of DTC consumer brands, such as launching Buy With Prime service, Amazon’s advertising revenue may accelerate.

Why do you say that?

When we combine the display demand of DTC brand with Amazon’s advertising ability, we can imagine another scene that seemed very contradictory in the past:Amazon may become the discovery platform of DTC brand.DTC brand can put "Responsible Brands" advertisement on Amazon website through the indirect way provided by "Buy with Prime" to guide users to their own independent websites.(although it seems that this path is too tortuous at present). For Amazon, which has a large number of consumers and has become the default shopping search engine, it has also become the best opportunity to absorb DTC’s past marketing investment in Facebook and other platforms.

Will this contradict Amazon’s own positioning? I’m afraid Amazon itself is adjusting its relationship with emerging brands and channels and trying to incorporate them into its own territory.(e.g. launch Buy with Prime). The success of Hero, Anke and other brands, and Peloton’s entry into Amazon may all indicate the acceleration of this integration.

Rediscovering the value of RMN

In the retail world, competition will never be absent.

Amazon’s advertising revenue has been concerned by the industry before its financial report was first disclosed. Both Wal-Mart and Target are making similar efforts, and the direction of this effort is RMN.

The so-called RMN, that is, Retail Media Networks.(Retail Media Network, this article is called RMN for short).In fact, retail media has existed for a long time, which is aimed at the presentation of different forms of media when consumers make shopping choices and decisions.

Off-line, from product samples, to in-store display, and then to the advertising space of paper catalogue mailed to home, these are all included in the retail media category. Similarly, in the digital field, brands pay to display their products at the point of sale/terminal.(POS)In order to enhance the possibility of consumers actually buying.

RMN refers to all forms of media management and delivery systems that a retailer can provide.Amazon’s advertising system is a typical example, and large retailers such as Wal-Mart and Target also have their own RMN. Its essence is an advertising platform, which is maintained by retailers themselves and built on the channels and digital assets they own. Both online and offline retailers manage advertising inventory and advertising through RMN at various marketing points in the whole purchase process of consumers.

In other words, large-scale retailers, whether online or offline, have the inherent advantages of first-hand data relative to the brand side. They are the contact points that connect with the end consumers the most and complete the transaction.With the development of technology, every contact point between these retailers and consumers can be digitized, collected and analyzed, and a complete chain can be formed according to the purchase results.

Prior to this, the development of RMN was slow, mainly due to the combination of personal privacy information collected by Facebook and tripartite data, which could meet the needs of the brand under the condition of better cost performance. Today, when this condition no longer exists, the role of RMN is highlighted.

Of course, the reason why RMN began to attract the attention of retailers themselves,In addition to seeing Amazon’s advertising business for many years bring rich rewards, retailers are now facing many challenges, such as supply chain disorder, inventory backlog, inflation and interest rate hikes, insufficient purchasing power, and increased economic recession expectations.For Wal-Mart, Target, Kroger and other large retailers, advertising revenue is the basis to ensure a higher source of gross profit income in chaotic times.

On the other hand,For brand marketing, Apple and Google’s restrictions on private data force the industry to seek alternatives to Facebook based on three-party data.(and similar platforms)Advertising strategy.

In this sense, both the current market situation and the economic situation have created perfect conditions for the rise of RMN. The difficult market environment will inevitably affect the overall advertising budget, which makes the brand have more stringent requirements on input efficiency, and the strict data tracking rules make the consumer data held by retailers more valuable.

Therefore, retailers suddenly find themselves sitting on a gold mine, and the advertising budget that was robbed by Facebook in the past seems to have returned.

In terms of volume, American digital retail media(Retail Media)Advertising spending will reach nearly $41 billion this year, up 31% from 2021, and may reach $61 billion by 2024. According to BCG’s forecast, the output value of global retail media may reach $101 billion this year.(Global advertising revenue is $843 billion)And in five years, it will reach 160 billion US dollars per year.

Among the top 10 retailers in the United States today, there are 9.(including Kroger, Target, Walgreens, Home Depot, etc.)Running their own media network.

Take Target as an example. Target’s Roundel provides advertisers with key data points, such as shopping behavior, insight and analysis. And provide tools to help marketers lock in the audience in the Target ecosystem and form a closed loop to measure advertising delivery to sales. Last year, Target’s advertising service provided more than $1 billion in revenue, and it is estimated to increase to $2 billion in the next few years.

In addition, Tesco has Media and Insight Platform, Wal-Mart has Walmart Connect, and it also includes Kroger Precision Marketing, Carrefour Links, Walgreens Wag and Sainsbury Nectar 360, all of which are the efforts of major retailers in RMN in the past year.

Although other retailers have far fewer contact points than Amazon in all aspects of the consumer shopping chain.(as shown in the figure below)However, this does not prevent each retailer from establishing its own RMN. Even if it cannot compete with it in terms of scale efficiency, RMN business must be followed up in terms of breaking the internal data island, organizing its own digital assets and strengthening its revenue capacity.

In the foreseeable future, the growth trend of RMN will be more obvious, and new opportunities will emerge due to the uneven RMN services provided by different retailers.

What do we realize?

A brief summary of our thoughts on RMN’s return to the field of vision:

Retail Media: State of the Industry Report 2022 – dunnhumby media

This article comes from WeChat WeChat official account:Cross-border talk (id: crossasean), Author: Chloe Wang


Tiger sniffing has long been concerned about going out to sea, providing first-hand information and linking head enterprises in the rapidly changing competitive environment.click the linkLeave your communication and cooperation demands, and we will contact you to synchronize the latest industry trends and activity information.

Korean stars came to Shanghai and were chased by fans with 20 cars. The idolize team exposed the inside story of organization and charging.

On November 3rd, Park Chanyeol, a member of the Korean idol group EXO, repeatedly sent two Weibo, claiming that he was chased and intercepted by more than 20 motorcades on the Shanghai viaduct, which almost caused an accident. After investigation in www.thepaper.cn, The Paper,These vehicles belong to the idolize motorcade, which provides car-following service for fans. The motorcade leader also provided reporters with quotations for various services in idolize, ranging from 100 yuan to several thousand yuan.

According to the reporter from The Paper, there have been traffic accidents caused by crazy fans following cars before. Previously, in June 2015, when South Korean star Kim Soo Hyun arrived in Shanghai to shoot an advertisement, the organizer dispatched more than 30 security guards and 10 "nanny cars" to stop the groupies’ vehicles, and the two sides launched a chase on the road, which was dangerous.

Many netizens called for rational idolize, emphasizing that "love is restraint", and fans’ crazy behavior should not be allowed to hurt the stars themselves and other public.

Weibo screenshot

Park Chanyeol sent Weibo to describe being chased and intercepted on the elevated road.

On November 3rd, Park Chanyeol, a member of the Korean band EXO, revealed through his personal Weibo: "On my way to Shanghai from the airport, about 20 cars have been following my car. These cars blocked the road, changed lanes many times on the expressway and blocked our car, which almost caused an accident several times."

He mentioned in another Weibo: "On the road we must pass, there are also many cars parked, which also hinder the passage of the road."

"It is wrong to do such a dangerous thing on the highway." Park Chanyeol hopes that fans can support EXO without affecting others and their own safety.

As of the evening of 4th, these two Weibo have been forwarded about 100,000 times.

Park Chanyeol didn’t specify who the 20 following vehicles belonged to, but Weibo’s comments were directed at some fanatical fans and exposed the Weibo account of a suspected team leader.

On November 3rd, a reporter from The Paper got in touch with the Weibo blogger, who called himself Lao Zhang. Lao Zhang said bluntly that the 20 cars mentioned by Park Chanyeol Weibo were his motorcade. "I was scolded to death by my fans in Weibo".

Talking about why it is so dangerous to drive, Lao Zhang admits that this is at the request of fans, who hope to be closer to the star’s car, which makes Lao Zhang have to drive to keep up with the star’s car. In the case of constantly overtaking and changing lanes at high speed, Lao Zhang said that "safety can be guaranteed".

Lao Zhang also said that more than 5,000 fans have taken their cars in idolize. As long as the stars appear in their field of vision, they can help fans track them all the way there. His services include tracking stars all the way, taking fans to the airport and waiting at the star’s residence. He earns income and lives with the "fan economy", and often publishes information about Korean stars in his circle of friends to attract business.For example, on October 30th, he posted a message in his circle of friends: "Ji Chang Wook will arrive in Shanghai tomorrow night, and fans who want to talk to the car will quickly write to me privately.".

Lao Zhang said that in the fierce market competition, the quotations of various idolize activities have been relatively transparent, and revealed his own quotations:Participate in a car-following operation, and each fan has to pay 100 yuan; If idolize is alone, the price is 500 yuan per person; If you want to follow the star’s residence, you have to ask 800 yuan.Another idolize-based organization in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province said that Park Chanyeol’s fans are sent to 100 yuan per person, and all the way to idolize, 200 yuan per person, with discounts for more than 6 people, and participation in group performances ranges from 800 yuan to 1000 yuan per person.

Idolize caused an accident, and fans called for restraint in love.

So crazy idolize, will it bring security risks? According to The Paper search, not long ago, there was a traffic accident caused by fans chasing Han Xing in Shanghai.

On June 3rd, 2015, South Korean star Kim Soo Hyun arrived in Shanghai to shoot an advertisement, and dispatched more than 30 security guards and 10 "nanny cars" to stop the groupies’ vehicles. The two sides launched a chase on the road, which was full of dangers. About 10 idolize vehicles, from the hotel where they live to the film and television base where they shoot advertisements, take about 1.5 hours by car. From time to time, there are dangerous situations such as crossing the line, cutting in cars, running red lights, etc. The organizer dispatched 10 "nanny cars" to protect the RV that Kim Soo Hyun was riding along the road, making it difficult for fans to get close.

On the afternoon of the same day, Kim Soo Hyun left after the rehearsal, and the groupie team continued to chase after her. As a result, two fan cars collided, but they didn’t stop. They chased Kim Soo Hyun and returned to the hotel to talk about compensation.

In addition, no matter where the stars go, fans follow them step by step. Whether it involves disturbing social public order, violating traffic regulations, infringing on the privacy rights of stars, etc. is also a social issue worth discussing.

Under Park Chanyeol’s Weibo, many fans called for "rationality" and "love is restraint". Netizen "61-year-old I will accompany you to your old age" wrote: "I don’t know in what mood he asked the staff who can speak Chinese to send two such Weibo in succession. I only know that those so-called likes and loves have troubled him. Isn’t love protecting and guarding him well?"

Five Taboos for Eating Crabs: Remember that "Crabs" are delicious and don’t forget your health.

  Bi Yanxia

  As the saying goes: when the autumn wind starts, the crab’s feet itch; When the chrysanthemums bloom, smell the crabs. Every autumn, hairy crabs covered with yellow fat are bound to occupy a place on the list of seasonal foods that people like. The National Day holiday is coming, and I believe many people can’t live without it. Hairy crabs are delicious. How can we "eat well"? Before enjoying delicious food, it’s best to know clearly the common sense of eating crabs, so as to satisfy both appetite and health.

  one

  Crabs have high beneficial fat content.

  Speaking of crab species in China, there are probably hundreds. According to the origin, it can be divided into four types: river crab, river crab, lake crab and sea crab. What is a hairy crab? Hairy crabs, commonly known as river crabs, hairy crabs and clear water crabs, generally mature from September to October. But not all river crabs are called hairy crabs, and the species should be Eriocheir sinensis, and the weight should be more than three or two. It is said that the name "hairy crab" is well-known. At that time, crab catchers in Suzhou and Kunshan set up gates between harbors. The gates were made of bamboo pieces and hung with lights at night. When crabs saw the light, they climbed onto the bamboo gates and were caught one by one, so they were called hairy crabs.

  People compare hairy crabs to the best taste. Zhang Dai, a writer in the Ming Dynasty, once said that eating hairy crabs has five flavors without vinegar and salt. So, what is the nutritional value of hairy crabs?

  The edible parts of hairy crabs include crab meat, crab roe or crab paste. Although they are the same crab, their nutritional values are different. For example, every 100 grams of crab meat contains 17.5 grams of protein, 1.2 grams of fat and 65 milligrams of cholesterol; Every 100g of sea crab meat contains 13.8g of protein, 2.3g of fat and 125mg of cholesterol. Compared with crab meat, crab meat contains less fat and cholesterol. In addition, 100 grams of crab meat contains 6.09 mg of vitamin E, 126 mg of calcium, 2.9 mg of iron, 3.68 mg of zinc and 56.72 mg of selenium, and almost no vitamin A; 100 grams of sea crab meat contains 30 micrograms of vitamin A, 2.99 milligrams of vitamin E, 208 milligrams of calcium, 1.6 milligrams of iron, 3.32 milligrams of zinc and 82.65 micrograms of selenium.

  Generally speaking, both river crabs and sea crabs are rich in vitamins and minerals, which can be regarded as high-protein foods.

  Crab yolk and crab paste, the favorite parts of everyone, have similar nutritional components, mainly containing fat and cholesterol, and the fat content is high, which can reach 15% or more. This is one of the reasons why crab paste and crab roe taste delicious. In addition, the cholesterol content in every 100 grams of crab roe may be as high as 400 mg, and the situation of crab paste is similar. However, there is no need to worry too much. First, the time to eat hairy crabs in a year is limited, but it is good to eat them in moderation. Second, many of these fats are essential fatty acids beneficial to human health, such as linoleic acid, linolenic acid and arachidonic acid.

  2

  "Six types of people" eat less.

  Some people love to eat hairy crabs, but when they think that crabs are "cold" food, they beat drums in their hearts. Cold, hot, warm and cool, don’t they refer to the human body’s feeling of external temperature? Why do foods have these differences? This is actually a statement of traditional Chinese medicine. The classification of cold, hot, warm, cool and equal attributes of food is based on the color, taste, growth environment, growth season and geographical environment of food, and also refers to the physical reaction of people after eating. Simply put, after eating food, the body feels warm and hot, and the food is warm and hot; If you feel cool after eating, the food is cold and cool. If the food is flat, it means that the food is flat and can be eaten every day.

  Therefore, Chinese medicine believes that eating crabs should be based on one’s physical condition. In real life, is there anyone who is not suitable for eating crabs? The following six groups of people should be cautious when eating crabs, and it is better to eat less or avoid eating.

  1. People with weak constitution, poor spleen and stomach function and insufficient gastric acid secretion should not eat crabs, which carry some pathogenic bacteria. Because everyone has different digestive ability and immune strength, their resistance to pathogenic bacteria and viruses is different. People with weak constitution, poor spleen and stomach function and insufficient gastric acid secretion are easy to be attacked by pathogenic bacteria and have discomfort symptoms. In addition, some people feel gastrointestinal discomfort after eating crabs because it is difficult to digest protein.

  2. People who are allergic and prone to eczema should not eat crabs. For Chinese residents, aquatic products such as shrimps and crabs are the most likely food types to cause allergies, and there have been many studies on the related allergic diseases in protein. Therefore, people who are allergic to seafood such as shrimps and crabs should not eat crabs, otherwise it will easily lead to gastrointestinal smooth muscle spasm and vascular edema, followed by nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea and other symptoms. In severe cases, urticaria or asthma may occur, and even anaphylactic shock may occur. In addition, people suffering from skin diseases such as dermatitis, eczema and tinea should also eat crabs carefully to avoid inducing diseases or aggravating the condition.

  3. People with colds and fever should not eat crabs because their gastrointestinal function is relatively weak at this time, and they can’t digest and absorb the high protein in crabs, which is prone to gastrointestinal discomfort.

  4. People with hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia and biliary tract diseases should not eat crabs, especially the formation of crab roe, crab paste cholecystitis and gallstones has a certain relationship with excessive cholesterol in the body and metabolic disorders. Crabs contain high cholesterol, with 460 mg of cholesterol per 100 grams of crab roe. Eating crabs is easy to make the disease relapse or get heavier.

  5. Gout patients and patients with hyperuricemia should not eat crabs. Every 100 grams of crab meat contains 82 mg of purine. Gout patients should not eat crabs during acute attack, especially the soup made of crab meat or crab roe. Patients with chronic gout and patients with simple hyperuricemia should eat less.

  6. Older people and infants should not eat crabs. Because the digestive organs of the elderly are declining, the digestive organs of children are not well developed, and their digestive absorption ability is no better than that of young adults. Therefore, eating crabs should be based on tasting. It should be noted that babies before ten months should not eat crabs, because high protein will increase the burden on liver and kidney.

  three

  Remember the five taboos of eating crabs.

  After talking about people who are not suitable for eating crabs, I have to talk about five taboos for eating crabs. Otherwise, people who are suitable for eating crabs may also eat something wrong.

  Avoid eating raw crabs. The body surface, gills and gastrointestinal tract of drunken crabs are covered with all kinds of bacteria and parasites. When eating crabs, they must be steamed or cooked thoroughly. Generally, after the water is boiled, it will take another 15 minutes to play a bactericidal role. The traditional method of eating crabs is steaming with ginger vinegar juice. This method is scientific, which not only ensures that bacteria and parasites in crabs are killed, but also ensures that the original flavor of crabs is not destroyed.

  Some people like to eat raw crabs and drunken crabs, which are more delicious, but various viruses, bacteria and parasites attached to crabs will also enter the human body, which may cause food poisoning, diarrhea, abdominal pain and vomiting. Although the drunken crab is soaked in yellow wine and white wine, the crab itself is still raw, and alcohol cannot be completely sterilized. If the metacercariae of Paragonimus contained in drunken crabs enter the human body and develop into adults to lay eggs, it can seriously parasitize other organs such as human brain, skin and liver. Therefore, these two ways of eating should be abandoned.

  Second, avoid eating dead crabs. After the crab dies, the bacteria in its body will rapidly multiply and spread into the crab meat, decompose the amino acids in the crab meat, and produce a lot of harmful substances. Therefore, eating dead crabs may induce vomiting, abdominal pain and diarrhea. Besides, it’s best not to buy a dying crab. In addition, crab meat is rich in histidine. When the crab dies, some bacteria containing histidine decarboxylase can decarboxylate histidine in crab meat to form a large amount of histamine under appropriate conditions. Histamine is a sensitizing substance, which can dilate venules and capillaries, promote the secretion of mucosa and glands, lead to allergic symptoms, and may even cause circulatory failure in severe cases.

  Three don’t eat cooked crabs stored for a long time. Cooked crabs stored are easily contaminated by bacteria, so crabs should be steamed and eaten now. In case you can’t finish eating, the rest of the crabs must be kept in the refrigerator and eaten at the next meal. When eating, you must return to the pot to boil or steam thoroughly. It is recommended not to eat crabs overnight. Although heating in the pot can kill pathogenic microorganisms, it can not destroy toxins, and it is still dangerous.

  Four don’t eat crab gills, crab stomachs, crab intestines, crab cheeks, crab stomachs, crab intestines and crab hearts. When the crab shell is opened, the gray-white strips and soft parts on both sides are the gill strips of the crab, which are the respiratory organs of the crab and are in direct contact with the outside world, and it is easy to accumulate dirt and heavy metals. Located in the front half of the crab shell and under the eyes, the triangular part is the crab stomach, and a black strip is the crab intestine. These two parts are the digestive organs of the crab, which contain food and metabolites, and may also accumulate dirt. Crab heart, commonly known as "hexagonal plate", is located in the middle of crab yellow or crab paste and is hexagonal, which is considered as the "coldest" part of crab. Here is an important part of the circulatory system, there is a lot of blood left, and its blood composition is quite different from that of the human body, which is easy to cause immune reaction.

  Five avoid eating too much. As mentioned above, protein contained in crabs and cholesterol contained in crab roe are relatively high, and excessive consumption at one time is not conducive to human digestion and absorption. According to the recommendation in "China Residents’ Dietary Pagoda" of China Nutrition Society, the suitable intake of aquatic products is 40-75g (edible part) at a time, which is equivalent to 100-188g of crabs with shells, and it is best not to exceed 3 times in a week. A crab with a shell of 188 grams is roughly equivalent to a large crab weighing four times.

  Hot spot dispelling doubts

  Can crabs be eaten with fruits?

  Many people have a question, can crabs and fruits be eaten together? Because there is a saying that pentavalent arsenic contained in seafood may react with vitamin C and produce toxicity.

  In China, seafood sold in formal channels needs to be tested by relevant departments, and the arsenic content should not exceed 0.5 mg per kilogram stipulated by national standards. According to this calculation, a person needs to eat 150 kilograms of seafood and more than 10 kilograms of fruit at a time to have a toxic reaction, which is simply impossible. Moreover, some researchers have conducted research in simulated gastric juice and found that vitamin C alone cannot reduce pentavalent arsenic to trivalent arsenic (arsenic). Therefore, it is not true that you can’t eat fruits and vitamin C tablets when eating seafood such as crabs and shrimps.

  Can pregnant women eat crabs?

  I believe that many women will be reminded that they can’t eat crabs when they are pregnant or pregnant. The reason is usually that crabs are cold and have the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. After eating, they will make the blood flow downward, which will easily lead to miscarriage and miscarriage. There are not a few people who hold this view, so is this true? The answer is no, there is no statistical data showing that abortion is related to eating crabs. Abortion of pregnant women after eating crabs is often due to eating crabs by mistake, for example, pregnant women are allergic to seafood, crabs themselves are not fresh or have bacterial parasites. These pregnant women developed symptoms such as allergic reaction or acute gastroenteritis after eating crabs, and finally did not save the fetus.

  Normal pregnant women can eat crabs, but if eating crabs when they are not pregnant is prone to gastrointestinal symptoms, it is recommended not to eat them when they are pregnant. In addition, pregnant women with weak constitution and weak digestive function should eat as little or no crabs as possible.

  How to choose crabs

  Selecting fresh and fat hairy crabs is a technical job. As the saying goes, "September round navel and October tip" means that the female crab should be eaten in September of the lunar calendar, and its navel is round, at this time, the female crab yellow is full of meat; The male crab should be eaten in October of the lunar calendar, and its navel is pointed. At this time, the male crab paste is full of meat.

  After choosing male and female crabs, you can follow the following points when choosing healthy crabs.

  First of all, pinch: pinch the crab’s back with your thumb and forefinger and gently shake it. The crab’s claws droop and shake with it. The crab’s claws are firm and swing by itself.

  The second is teasing: you can tease the crab’s eyes with your hands. If it responds immediately, it means full of vitality; Or turn the crab over with its abdomen facing the sky. If it can turn its body quickly, it means that the crab has strong vitality, and vice versa.

  The third is to look: the back of the shell is dark green and shiny, which is thick and strong; Look at the tail end, the navel protrudes, and the red color (commonly known as "red seal") will be revealed on both sides of the crab navel, which is generally full of cream and fat; Look at the hairy crab feet, the crab feet are old and healthy, and the crab feet are soft and weak without fluff.

  The fourth is to try: if conditions permit, put the crab into a basin of water, and the live crab will foam.

Analyst: Palm oil stocks may have an inflection point after May.

  Affected by the expected increase in production, the futures price of BMD crude palm oil continued to fall, and domestic palm oil followed the trend of Malaysian palm oil and also hit a new low. Market participants said that it is necessary to pay attention to the short-term disturbance of the risk premium brought by geopolitical tensions in the Middle East to palm oil prices.

  According to Liu Ruijie, an oil and fat analyst at Qisheng Futures, the quotation of palm oil producing areas in Southeast Asia peaked in stages on April 3, and then entered the oscillation stage after a slight decline. After the MPOB report landed on April 15th, the logical stage of Ramadan production reduction and increase was exhausted. BMD crude palm oil led the domestic palm oil to fall, accompanied by the sharp depreciation of Malaysian ringgit and Indonesian rupiah, and the decline of palm oil quoted in US dollars was further expanded. In addition, some institutions said that Malaysian palm oil inventories were prone to inflection points in April and May, and then there would be a period of increasing production and accumulating stocks, which suppressed the market enthusiasm of palm oil, and the producing areas took the initiative to lower prices to promote the exchange.

  "At present, the seasonal palm oil production in Malaysia has begun to recover. However, due to the Ramadan Festival, the output growth in March was lower than the historical average, and the export exceeded expectations, resulting in a drop in palm oil inventory in Malaysia to 1.715 million tons, down 10.68% from the previous month." Guo Wenwei, an oil and fat analyst at Huishang Futures, told reporters that Malaysian palm oil stocks may not be loose for the time being in April. In the first half of April, due to the impact of Eid al-Fitr, palm oil production growth in the second half of the month is expected to turn from negative to positive, and the margin of supply and demand is expected to improve. The willingness to sell goods in the place of origin has increased, and the quotation of the place of origin has loosened.

  In fact, the data of palm oil production and demand in Malaysia in the first half of April continued to show a decrease in production and an increase in demand. SPPOMA data show that the yield of palm oil in Malaysia decreased by 22.43% and the oil yield increased by 0.03 percentage point from 1 to 15. According to ITS data, Malaysia exported 905,515 tons of palm oil from April 1 to 20, and 821,820 tons in the same period in March.

  According to Liu Ruijie’s analysis, due to the holiday of Eid al-Fitr, the overall palm oil production level in Southeast Asia is still expected to be low in April. On the demand side, due to the low inventory in Indonesia, Malaysia’s palm oil export market has obviously improved this year compared with the same period of last year, and even after Ramadan, the export from April 15 to 20 can still reach a high level of 54,000 tons per day, so the supply and demand situation is still tight, and it is expected that the inventory will still drop by 100,000-200,000 tons at the end of April.

  "Previously, the price of palm oil continued to rise, which was driven by the high cost performance of soft oil. In the first quarter, major demand countries such as India reduced palm oil purchases and turned to vegetable oils such as beans and sunflower oil. Under the expectation that the output growth is less than the export, Malaysian palm oil maintained its expectation of going to the warehouse in April, but the inflection point at the bottom of the inventory is expected to appear in the second quarter during the year. " Liu Jinlu, an oil analyst at Guoyuan Futures, said.

  Domestically, the reporter learned that the current import price of palm oil is high, and the domestic import profit continues to be sluggish. This year, the overall import volume of palm oil is low. According to customs data, China imported 162,700 tons of palm oil in March, an increase of 67.49% from the previous month and a decrease of 58.12% year-on-year. Liu Jinlu said that after Ramadan, with the decline in the quotation of the place of origin, the profit of palm oil in the distant month has been restored, and the long-term purchase of ships has increased. However, the reality of tight in recent months still exists. From the demand side, the recent fall in prices has led to a pick-up in spot transactions, but it is still mainly just needed. According to institutional data, as of the week of April 12, the commercial inventory of palm oil in key areas of the country was 514,990 tons, a decrease of 8.19% from the previous month and a decrease of 42.65% year-on-year, which was in a low position in the same period of history. It is expected that in the second quarter, with the recovery of the arrival volume in Hong Kong, the palm oil inventory will start the repair process.

  "At present, the spot price difference of domestic soybean palm oil is upside down, which has led to a sharp reduction in palm oil consumption. The substitution of domestic packaged soybean oil for palm oil has increased significantly. However, large food enterprises have not completely changed the formula, palm oil is only needed, and the decline rate of palm oil inventory has slowed down. There will be an inflection point after May." Guo Wenwei said.

  Looking forward to the market outlook, Guo Guowei suggested that driven by the expected increase in palm oil supply in the producing area and the pressure of selling goods at reduced prices in the producing area, Malaysian palm oil continued its callback trend, and domestic palm oil supply was expected to increase, following the downward trend of Malaysian palm oil oscillation, but we still need to pay attention to the short-term disturbance of risk premium brought by geopolitical risks.

  In Liu Ruijie’s view, although there may be an inventory inflection point in May, it is difficult to effectively accumulate Malaysian palm oil inventory even if it bottoms out in the second quarter. The staged drought in the third quarter of last year may still adversely affect the output in the second quarter of this year. In the third quarter of this year, there will be a possible La Nina phenomenon, and if there is too much rainfall in advance during the seasonal high-yield period, the output may also be affected. On the whole, there are still hidden dangers in palm oil production in Southeast Asia, and the inventory levels in Indonesia and Malaysia are low this year, and the overall supply status is not loose, so the subsequent price center of gravity still has the potential to move up.

  Liu Jinlu believes that on the whole, the supply side of the producing area is expected to grow, and the domestic market is playing a game between tight reality and loose expectation. At the same time, the sharp fluctuation of crude oil price brought by geopolitical risks has driven the disturbance of raw wood demand, and also caused some disturbance to palm oil in the internal and external markets.

Yang Zi suspected of exposing his love affair! In the 1905 dialogue, Yang Zi said that he leaked his mouth, but fans booed and shouted: Xiao

Ms. Yang’s reference to a "loved one" in the interview immediately sparked a buzz among netizens. Many thought she was hinting at her new romance, and some even began to speculate that the lucky one was Xiao Zhan.

Some fans are skeptical of this speculation, thinking it may just be a means of hype. However, more people believe that Yang Zi is already in a new relationship, and she inadvertently revealed this information in the interview.

This association is not groundless. In the entertainment industry, every detail of celebrities can become a topic of conversation. Especially for a high-profile actress like Yang Zi, every public statement she makes can cause an uproar.

The relationship between Yang Zi and Xiao Zhan is not just the imagination of fans. In "The Rest of Your Life, Please Teach Me More", the chemistry between the two makes the audience intoxicated. Their cooperation not only brings audience ratings, but also sows the seeds of countless guesses and expectations in the future.

However, the reality of the entertainment industry is often far more tortuous than it appears. Celebrities’ love lives are often a private part of their lives, and even in public, they can have difficulty controlling the flow and interpretation of news.

For Yang Zi, the rumors of a suspected new relationship may just be a continuation of her past cooperation with Xiao Zhan. The tacit understanding and interaction between the two have always been a topic that fans love to talk about. But in this industry full of halo and heat, anything can happen.

No matter what the final truth is, Yang Zi is a much-watched actor, and every move she makes touches the hearts of countless fans. Perhaps, this is also the charm of the entertainment industry, which is fascinating and unforgettable for a long time.

Therefore, whether it was the popularity of "Cheng Huan Ji" or the rumors of Yang Zi’s suspected new love affair, they all caused waves in the entertainment industry. Every star’s story is a part of this industry, and Yang Zi’s story, like her work, is worthy of our careful taste and exploration.

Accused of being "gambling and lecherous" Guo Fucheng: What I do is what mature people do


Guo Fucheng responded to the negative news calmly, showing the style of a superstar.


  China News Service, April 18, Guo Fucheng was recently reported by the Hong Kong media that he was "gambling and lustful". At the Singapore press conference yesterday, Guo Tianwang responded generously to negative reports. He said that what he did was what mature people did, and there was nothing that could not be made public, but for privacy, all he could do was pull up the curtains.


  Yesterday, Guo Fucheng held a press conference to promote the "Dancing Forest True World Tour Concert" on May 30, Lianhe Zaobao reported. Guo Fucheng talked about the concert’s 450-degree rotating stage, elaborate costumes and how he worked out for the performance.


  What’s more rare is that when the reporter asked about the recent Hong Kong media reports that he was "gambling" and "lecherous", an assistant suddenly grabbed the reporter’s hand and tried to block the so-called "sensitive" issue. Instead, Guo Fucheng showed generosity, not only did his face not change, but also responded generously to these negative reports.


  Recently, Guo Fucheng was secretly photographed by the "Oriental Xindi" weekly magazine watching the live broadcast of horse racing naked at home, accused of being addicted to smoking and betting on horses, and was recently exposed to teasing flight attendants.


  In this regard, Guo Fucheng said: "In the entertainment industry in Hong Kong, people like to pay attention to your every move and secretly take pictures of your life at home. I do what mature people do, I have my own space, there is no big secret that cannot be disclosed, and what I do at home is not a big deal. However, some bad Hong Kong media like to amplify some points and add their own imagination, just to stimulate sales. As an artist, I can only say helpless, like they see me walking around the house without clothes, which is fine, I am not a girl, but if I were a girl, they would be happier! The only thing I can do is to pull up the curtain."


  Guo Fucheng, who has always been dedicated to his acting career, adopts a "random" mentality towards emotional affairs. "I have been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and now I still have many ideals. I don’t want to be distracted, I need to be 100% committed to my work, and I don’t want my life to change. I love my job, for example, I exercise all year for concerts, and I run every day despite the rain. I have no idea of starting a family now. Although my friends are married, I don’t envy them at all. They may like to have children, but I am not ready to be a husband or father. I want to be a good entertainer now."

Transforming Shenzhen’s advantages into competitiveness promotes the healthy and sustainable development of platform economy norms

Shenzhen News Network, July 14, 2023(Wen Kun, Chief Reporter of Shenzhen Special Economic Zone DailyThe platform economy has emerged in the tide of development of the times, providing new space for expanding demand, providing a new engine for innovation and development, providing new channels for employment and entrepreneurship, and providing new support for public services. Its status and role in the overall development have become increasingly prominent. Shenzhen has developed the platform economy and has unique advantages in system, industry, technology and ecology. It has cultivated leading enterprises such as Huawei and Tencent, as well as subdivided invisible champions such as Lexin, Lalamove, and Lichuang Mall. In recent years, Shenzhen has taken advantage of the trend and laid out the platform economy from the entire Greater Bay Area urban agglomeration, transforming its own advantages into competitiveness in the platform economy field, promoting the healthy and sustainable development of the platform economy, and gradually becoming a new driving force for economic growth. Platform enterprises continue to support technological innovation, transformation of traditional industries, and enhance core competitiveness, empowering the real economy and supporting high-quality development.

The platform continues to increase investment in technological innovation

On July 12, the WeChat official account of the National Development and Reform Commission said that through in-depth research to understand the development of platform enterprises, a number of typical cases of platform enterprises in supporting technological innovation and traditional industry transformation were sorted out and announced. Many local enterprises and platform enterprises in Shenzhen were selected as cases.

Technological innovation is an important way for enterprises to break through development bottlenecks and enhance their competitiveness. In order to enhance the core competitiveness of enterprises, platform enterprises represented by Tencent are increasing investment in technological innovation.

According to reports, in order to strengthen the development of core businesses such as cloud computing platform products and services in the field of artificial intelligence, and promote the development and commercialization of domestic high-performance AI chips, Tencent continues to invest and support Shanghai Suyuan Technology Co., Ltd.

"Investment in the high-tech sector can open up a new growth direction for Tencent." Some industry insiders said that combined with Tencent’s investment in recent years, it can be seen that Tencent’s investment is gradually trending towards frontier technologies and Enterprise Services.

With the support of Tencent, Shanghai Suyuan Technology products have been applied to artificial intelligence application scenarios such as cloud data centers, supercomputing centers, Internet of Things and smart cities, providing more autonomous and controllable product and service options for the industry.

Last year, Tencent also invested in "Cloud Leopard Intelligence", a start-up company focused on cloud computing and data center data processor chips (DPUs) and solutions, to support the development of the domestic semiconductor industry.

In recent years, Tencent has actively embraced the "digital economy" and upped the ante’s investment in high-tech fields. According to statistics from relevant institutions, in the first half of 2022, Tencent completed 9 investments in frontier fields such as healthcare, new energy, and Enterprise Services, accounting for 26%.

Tencent’s investment in these frontier industries is in line with the national industrial development plan, and by deepening into the industry and the real economy, it continues to increase investment in technological innovation, thus promoting the development of multi-industry innovation.

The platform deeply empowers the development of the real economy

The real economy is the foundation of our country’s economic development. Platform enterprises have advantages in technology, traffic and data, which helps to attract upstream and downstream enterprises in the industrial chain to join the ecology and collaborative innovation, jointly promote the deep integration of digital technology and the real economy, promote the efficiency improvement of traditional industries, optimize business models, and promote the high-end and intelligent development of traditional industries.

In the typical case announced by the National Development and Reform Commission, Meituan has focused on its main business, independently invested in the development of unmanned delivery vehicles, and its technical indicators in obstacle prediction model algorithms have reached the international leading level.

According to the relevant person in charge of Shenzhen Meituan Low Altitude Logistics Technology Co., Ltd., in order to better improve the efficiency and experience of urban real-time delivery, in 2017, Meituan launched the exploration of drone delivery services, promoted the transformation of performance tools through technological innovation, and accelerated the construction of a local real-time delivery network coordinated by air and land. It is committed to providing users with 3 kilometers and 15 minutes of standard delivery services.

At present, Meituan has initially completed the research and development and construction of autonomous flight drones, intelligent dispatching systems and high-efficiency operation systems, of which more than 90% of the hardware components are purely self-developed, and thus created a multi-scene, multi-weather urban low-altitude logistics solution.

Strengthen the infrastructure building of low-altitude economic industries and cultivate multiple low-altitude economic application scenarios. Shenzhen, which took the lead in navigation with Meituan drone, has been leading the way in the development of low-altitude economy. As of now, Meituan drone has opened 5 business districts and 14 drone logistics distribution routes in Shenzhen, and built the country’s first drone remote operation management center and put it into use.

Small and micro enterprises are the foundation of the development of the real economy and an important part of financial inclusion. The financial technology platform represented by Lexin takes advantage of technological innovation expertise, takes risk as the center, and uses data to drive decision-making to meet the "short, small, frequent and urgent" capital needs of small and micro enterprises. Accurately "drip irrigation" small and micro enterprises to help the development of the real economy.

In 2022, Lexin and Lexin Pratt & Whitney launched the "Small Shop Fireworks Plan", which will help more small and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households to develop better through four characteristic services: high quota, fast review, good service and cost saving. Over the past year, Lexin Pratt & Whitney has contributed a total of 21.30 billion yuan in loans, and the small and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households assisted cover more than 300 cities in 30 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions across the country.

The platform actively enhances its core competitiveness

Platform enterprises are based on the domestic circulation and expand the domestic and international double circulation, which is the key to exploring overseas markets and enhancing international competitiveness. At present, platform enterprises strengthen technological innovation and application, actively participate in international competition, expand international markets, and continuously increase their international influence while enhancing their own core competitiveness.

In the typical case sorted out by the National Development and Reform Commission, Tencent invested in and supported Beijing Yunji Technology joint stock company, superimposing its own computing power advantages with Yunji Technology’s indoor positioning and navigation technology advantages to form an internationally competitive service robot product. As of now, there are more than 20,000 service users, and the business covers 41 countries and regions.

Platform enterprises have not only achieved rich returns through investment, but also enhanced their own core competitiveness and promoted high-level technological self-reliance.

"Platformization" is a major trend in the future, especially in the digitalization of the economy and advanced manufacturing, where platforms play a very large role.

In recent years, Huawei has undergone a clear transformation from a product company to a platform-based enterprise. Platforms such as Hongmeng Systems, Euler, cloud computing, and intelligent connected cars are all building strong ecosystems, and these platforms have become the driving force for Huawei’s continuous development.

"Digital transformation is moving towards a platform economy, and ecological aggregation creates value together. Digital platform is an inevitable choice." The relevant person in charge of Huawei’s strategy department said that Huawei’s digital platform supports the integration of multi-scenario applications and data, IoT devices, opens up partner marketing venues, and connects IoT (Internet of Things) to IT systems. Huawei’s digital platform partners create a co-construction, sharing, and win-win ecosystem to help all walks of life in digital transformation and build an intelligent world where everything is connected.

In March this year, Huawei’s 2022 annual report shows that Hongmeng ecology is booming, and the global registered developers exceed 6 million. Over the past few years, Huawei has continued to innovate and attack, allowing Hongmeng ecology to continue to evolve and open up, and join hands with developers to enter the fast lane of Hongmeng ecology.

Shenzhen has advantages in developing a platform economy

On July 12, Li Qiang, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Premier of the State Council, chaired a forum on platform enterprises. The meeting pointed out that on the new journey of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way, the platform economy has great potential.

The platform economy and the new model it has spawned are gradually becoming a new driving force for economic growth. As a representative of Shenzhen platform enterprises, Xiao Wenjie, CEO of Lexin, said that the government encourages platform enterprises to practice "internal strength" and work hard, continue to promote innovation breakthroughs, and better empower the development of the real economy, which is conducive to stimulating the new vitality of the development of the platform economy. Lexin will actively give full play to the technological and innovation advantages of platform enterprises, actively increase support for small and micro enterprises, and help small and micro enterprises alleviate the problem of "stuck neck" of funds through technological means. Help small and micro enterprises to innovate in technology, increase production capacity, and expand market share, and deeply empower the development of the real economy.

The relevant person in charge of Lalamove said that since the beginning of this year, the Lalamove platform has steadily increased the order volume in the Chinese mainland, and is also constantly absorbing new transportation capacity to join. This year, it has provided 900,000 flexible employment positions for the society; overseas development, covering South East Asia, South Asia, South America and other 10 markets. The Lalamove brand has also harvested the simultaneous growth of order volume and transportation capacity.

Li Enhan, deputy director of the Token Digital Economy Research Center of the China (Shenzhen) Comprehensive Development Research Institute, said that the meeting affirmed the important value of the platform economy and platform enterprises in expanding domestic demand, promoting employment, promoting scientific and technological innovation, assisting the development of the real economy and participating in international competition. At the same time, it also put forward higher requirements for governments at all levels to create a fairer and more orderly market environment, improve the normal supervision system, and promote the healthy development of the platform economy.

"Shenzhen has unique advantages in developing the platform economy." Li Enhan said that the first is the institutional advantage. Shenzhen has the conditions to give full play to the advantages of the special zone’s legislative power and conduct pioneering explorations in the digital economy fields such as the platform economy, providing institutional guarantees for the standardized and healthy development of the platform economy. The second is technological advantages. Shenzhen is in a leading position in the development of cutting-edge digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, and big data, providing strong technical support for the development of the platform economy. The third is industrial advantages. Shenzhen’s new generation of information technology industry has a solid foundation and a complete industrial chain. It can effectively integrate the industrial resources of the Greater Bay Area, providing prerequisites and strong market demand space for the smooth operation of the platform economy. The fourth is ecological advantages. Shenzhen not only has leading enterprises in the platform economy field such as Tencent, but also has many emerging platform enterprises such as Lichuang Mall. At the same time, BYD, Huawei and other enterprises have also built a platform ecosystem linking upstream and downstream around their core businesses, integrating professional services and financial resources. These have laid a good ecological foundation for Shenzhen’s efforts to develop the platform economy, and also promoted the development of the platform economy towards individualization, segmentation and specialization.

How to better develop the platform economy, Li Enhan put forward suggestions. Shenzhen should further attach importance to the strategic value of the platform economy and respect the laws of the platform economy. First, encourage start-ups with platform attributes to enter more new fields and new tracks, and provide a better development environment and financing channels for these enterprises in the early and embryonic stages of development. Second, encourage large platform enterprises to give full play to the advantages of scientific and technological research and development and resource integration, and actively participate in international competition while driving the common development of enterprises in the platform ecosystem. Third, improve the normalized supervision mechanism, clarify the reasonable development expectations of platform enterprises, guide platform enterprises to make rational use of capital power and social influence, actively fulfill social responsibilities, and promote the healthy and sustainable development of platform economy norms.

Huawei P60 series exposed, will be released in Quarter 1, 2023

  In 2022, Huawei will return to the mobile phone market with Huawei Mate 50 series. According to third-party data, Huawei’s mobile phone shipments in the third quarter reached 8.60 million, an increase of 48.3% year-on-year. It can be said that the mobile phone business has picked up.

(The picture comes from the Internet.)

  Recently, the blogger "The factory manager is Guan" said on Weibo that the Huawei P60 series has been finalized, which means that the machine will be released soon, and Huawei has also started preparations for the P60, including marketing, shipment planning, press conference time, etc. According to its news, Huawei P60 will be available to consumers in Quarter 1 in 2023, and is likely to launch Hongmeng OS 3.1 version simultaneously.

  In addition, another well-known blogger’s digital chat station also released a photo of the Huawei P60 series mobile phone silicone protective case. From the photo of the protective case, it can be seen that the lens module design of Huawei P60 is very special, and the placement of the three cameras is very different from that of the P50 series. It seems that this time on the P60 series, Huawei should adopt a new appearance design. At the same time, the rear three cameras of the P60 series, the opening of the main camera lens in the mobile phone case is a bit exaggerated, which may mean that the main camera specifications of the P60 series will be a great improvement over the previous one.

(The picture comes from the Internet.)

  It is reported that the internal code of Huawei P60 is "Mona Lisa", and it uses the "Constant Gaussian Four Curved Surface" screen to solve the problem of screen visual symmetry, so that the long side, short side and high four corners of the screen are approximately the same, achieving a true four-sided equal height.

  In addition, from the news, Huawei P60 series is equipped with a flagship processor, but 5G will still be absent, support satellite communication, and upgrade the main camera 64 million pixels with Huawei’s own XMAGE images.

  After the strong return of the Mate 50 series, Huawei’s mobile phone product line is also gradually returning to the right track. As one of Huawei’s two flagships, the P series will naturally usher in a new and powerful attitude. And with Huawei’s consistent strong product strength, we have no doubt about the strength of the Huawei P60. From the relevant news, the main camera of the Huawei P60 may have no small surprises.

  Ministry of Finance: protectionist measures will not help solve the capacity problem.

  Vice Minister of Finance Liao Min briefed the media on US Treasury Secretary Yellen’s visit to China and answered questions. Liao Min said that protectionist measures will not help solve the capacity problem. In view of the high enthusiasm for developing emerging industries in some places, China will further make overall planning and guidance at the national level on the premise of fully respecting the laws of the market economy, and the relevant policy orientation is open and clear. It should be emphasized that we resolutely oppose some developed economies to engage in "pan-security" and upgrade green protectionist measures, which will be harmful to themselves and will seriously infringe on the legitimate development rights and interests of China enterprises. China will not sit idly by. In fact, protectionist measures are common in history, but they do not help solve substantive problems. As another article by Bloomberg on April 3 pointed out, the steel protectionist measures adopted by the United States in the past decade have not prevented the reduction of jobs in the US metal manufacturing industry, but also increased the costs in other areas of the US economy and reduced the competitiveness of the industry. If this policy is applied to the new energy industry, it will further weaken the ability of the United States to cope with climate change. (Ministry of Finance website)

  Vice Minister of Finance Liao Min briefed the media on US Treasury Secretary Yellen’s visit to China and answered questions.

  Ministry of Finance: China and the United States believe that every country has a reasonable need to safeguard national security, but China emphasizes that the concept of "national security" should not be generalized, and the so-called "diversification" should be used as an excuse to impact the normal trade and investment exchanges between the two countries and the world and the stability of the production and supply chain. China has clearly expressed its serious concern about the US sanctions and restrictions on China enterprises, tariff increase and investment restrictions on China, pointing out that these measures harm the legitimate rights and interests of China enterprises and people, and are not conducive to the well-being of American enterprises and people. China welcomes the US statement that it has no intention to seek decoupling from China, and hopes that the US will take concrete actions to stop imposing sanctions on China enterprises. China has fully responded to the problems raised by the US such as overcapacity. (Ministry of Finance website)
