Beauty is a technical activity, and domestic beauty cosmetics accelerate overtaking in corners in the "composition age"

  Everyone has a love of beauty. In the era of Yan value economy, consumers’ pursuit of beauty supports the sustained growth of the beauty industry. However, in a long historical period, foreign brands have always occupied a dominant position in China’s beauty market, and the late-developing domestic brands can only catch up with each other in this marathon.

  However, the competitive landscape is changing. In recent years, the rise of domestic beauty cosmetics has accelerated, and the market penetration rate has steadily increased. Last year’s "double 11", a report card made everyone shine-domestic brands surpassed international brands for the first time and won the beauty category titles on Tmall and Tik Tok platforms. In the context of the general decline of foreign brands, domestic beauty products have achieved contrarian growth. The "proud" performance is not only driven by the new trend in the consumption field, but also depends on the strong investment of domestic brands in ingredient research and development, the continuous pursuit of cost performance and the gradual improvement of brand strength.

  Recently,In the "Times Meeting Room" column, the reporter had an in-depth conversation with Sun Huaiqing, Chairman and CEO of the Board of Directors, and Xu Xiaofang, Chief Analyst of Beauty and Commerce of CITIC Securities Research Department, to analyze the reasons behind the rise of domestic beauty products, discuss how technology can reshape the competitive landscape of China’s beauty industry in the "Composition Age", and look forward to the investment opportunities of beauty track in 2024.

  Leading the "Component Age" with "Chip-level Revolution"

  "2023 is the first year of China cosmetics, and it is also the origin of national brands surpassing multinational brands in an all-round way." Sun Huaiqing said that during several major e-commerce promotion activities last year, there was an obvious "trade-off" in the sales growth rate of national brands and multinational brands. On the one hand, some national brands have gained dozens of points of growth; On the other hand, some international brands have experienced a bleak performance decline.

  According to the data of China Cosmetics Yearbook 2023, the domestic cosmetic market in China in 2023 is larger than that of foreign brands. It is worth noting that this is also the first time that domestic brands have surpassed foreign brands in online and offline channels. In Sun Huaiqing’s view, "this is not the end" and the trend will continue.

  What does domestic beauty accelerate to catch up with? Both Sun Huaiqing and Xu Xiaofang frequently mentioned the progress of raw materials and the rise of local ingredients. "In the past few years, we have paid attention to the rise of a number of local bioactive raw materials suppliers in China, which can provide high-quality and low-cost raw materials for downstream brands to add in sufficient quantities. This laid a solid foundation for the product strength of domestic beauty products. " Xu Xiaofang said.

  In recent years, Chinese consumers’ awareness of ingredients has deepened, and the demand for skin care products has advanced towards more personalized segmentation. Recombinant collagen is the "new top flow" in the current functional skin care track. Especially in recent days, international big names have entered the market one after another, betting on recombinant collagen components. LVMH’s private equity fund led the domestic recombinant collagen enterprises in September last year, and L ‘Oreal also introduced recombinant collagen into new products in December last year. According to the global growth consulting firm Jost Sullivan, in 2025, the market share of recombinant collagen will surpass hyaluronic acid and become the first raw material component of skin care products.

  In the cosmetics industry, raw materials and ingredients have always been regarded as the "soul", which is also the shortcoming and weakness of China cosmetics companies in the past. However, in the component of recombinant collagen, local domestic brands have played the role of "leader". "Marumi announced in 2021 that China is leading the world in the research of recombinant collagen, and we are long-term practitioners, cultivators and leaders of this ingredient." Sun Huaiqing said.

  Anti-aging is the rigid demand of skin care products. The essence of aging is the loss of human collagen. To resist aging, it is necessary to prescribe the right medicine and supplement collagen. At present, animal-derived collagen is widely used in skin care products because of its low cost and simple process. According to Sun Huaiqing, animal-derived collagen has three natural pain points: first, extracted from animal leather, it is inevitable that there is solvent residue, which is not gentle enough; Second, animal products may carry pathogens and are not safe enough; Third, animal collagen and human collagen are not the same species, and the absorption effect is not good enough.

  "In order to solve these problems, there are many skin care products that stimulate the skin to produce collagen by using ingredients such as retinol or peptides. Through more than 10 years of research, we have synthesized humanized collagen similar to collagen in human skin by gene recombination, which can directly supplement the collagen lost by human body. " Sun Huaiqing said.

  Chip is regarded as the key to China’s breakthrough in the field of science and technology, and Sun Huaiqing regards the success of component research and development as a "chip-level revolution". "The change brought by China brand to China cosmetics industry is a’ chip-level revolution’. This is the goal we are striving for and what is happening now. " Sun Huaiqing said.

  "It’s not that foreign goods can’t afford it, but that domestic products are more cost-effective." "You can buy expensive ones, but you can’t buy expensive ones." … Under the background of the rise of generation Z and the change of consumption concept, the global consumer industry has ushered in profound changes, and the behavior pattern of the younger generation of consumers has changed from blindly advocating big brands to rational consumption and pursuing cost-effectiveness.

  This trend in the field of consumption is undoubtedly a great opportunity for domestic beauty.

  "At this stage, China Cosmetics fits consumers’ pursuit of cost performance very well." Xu Xiaofang told reporters that the booming raw material supply in the upstream provided raw materials with reasonable price, high activity and high purity, which enabled the downstream cosmetics brands to make skin care products with the same effect as international brands, and the price was more advantageous, thus better meeting the needs of consumers in China.

  In the past, domestic beauty cosmetics gave people the impression that they were "big brands and cheap bowls". Is the current popular "cost performance" another synonym for low quality and low price? Sun Huaiqing gave a clear negative answer to this question. In his view, consumers have grown more savvy, and savvy consumers always hope that the money they pay is valuable when buying goods. High cost performance does not mean that the absolute price is low, but that the quality of this product brings consumers "sex" far higher than "price".

  Take Marubi’s recombinant collagen mini-golden needle essence product as an example. According to Sun Huaiqing, the current price of this product is between 300 yuan and 400 yuan, but other products with similar efficacy and skin care experience on the market may cost 500 yuan to 600 yuan. Comparing the two, Marumi’s products are more cost-effective. "Cost performance has nothing to do with the absolute value of the price, but with the experience, feeling and change it brings to people. Marumi is a firm follower, practitioner and leader in cost performance. " Sun Huaiqing said.

  Xu Xiaofang also observed that with the all-round progress of domestic beauty cosmetics in raw materials, packaging and marketing, the prices of many local cosmetic brands are gradually increasing. "Five years ago, the unit price of many mainstream local brand goods was around 100 yuan, and now it has gradually expanded to 200 yuan and higher price bands. But the current price is not too high, so it still has a strong cost performance for consumers. " Xu Xiaofang said.

  At the same time, with the generation Z, represented by the post-90s generation, gradually becoming the main consumer in the field of beauty cosmetics, the new generation of consumers are more rational and smart in their consumption behavior, with stronger national self-confidence and higher willingness to try local brands, which provides broad opportunities for the rise of domestic beauty cosmetics.

  Sun Huaiqing told reporters that the average penetration rate of cosmetics among post-90s consumers in China has exceeded that of foreign consumers, which means that their demand for skin care and make-up is stronger. What this generation has seen is a prosperous and prosperous China, which not only has economic self-confidence, but also gains cultural self-confidence in the process of growing up. The founders and operators of China brand know China consumers better and are better at emotional interaction with China consumers than multinational brands, so they have more advantages.

  In recent years, the competition in the booming beauty industry has become increasingly fierce, and a number of cutting-edge brands have risen rapidly, which are favored by young consumers and have a very strong growth momentum. In this regard, as a domestic brand with a history of more than 20 years, Sun Huaiqing believes that Marumi still has strong vitality. "In a forest, vines, vines and ferns often grow fastest, but the trees have the strongest vitality." Sun Huaiqing said that the continuous investment in R&D, perfect supply chain, abundant capital reserves, a team of over 1,000 people with common values, and a basic customer base of over 10 million people are all the advantages and confidence of Marumi. "Only when the roots are deep will the trees grow tall." In Sun Huaiqing’s view, Marumi is the big tree in the forest with its roots deeply rooted in the ground.

  Although in 2023, domestic beauty products achieved many surprising results in terms of increasing domestic market share and "sailing out to sea", in the secondary market, the beauty sector as a whole was in a downward channel in the past year. There is a certain degree of deviation between the industry performance and the valuation trend of the secondary market.

  In this regard, Xu Xiaofang said that the rise and fall of stock prices is not only related to the fundamental situation of the industry and the company, but also the result of the comprehensive effects of valuation, capital movements, policy changes and other factors. In the past few years, the valuation of the entire beauty plate has experienced a period of continuous increase. In 2023, the valuation ushered in adjustment and decline, and the reflection on the stock price was also obvious. "But from a longer time axis, the price of the stock will definitely reflect the real value of the company in the end." Xu Xiaofang said.

  "I boldly predict that in the next 5-7 years, the sales of China brand in China market will completely surpass those of multinational brands." Sun Huaiqing told reporters. At the same time, he predicted that three to five world-class cosmetics groups would be born in China no later than 2049. Based on this judgment, he believes that smart and far-sighted investors will use their own money to cast brands that they think are worth investing in. Therefore, the value of an excellent company will eventually be reflected in the stock price.

  "Looking forward to 2024, we will continue to maintain confidence in the beauty industry, which is expected to continue to grow steadily." Talking about the investment opportunities in 2024, Xu Xiaofang judged this. Specifically, she believes that investors can pay attention to some structural opportunities when laying out the beauty track, and there are three main lines to focus on: first, continue to follow the main line of cost performance, second, make beauty science and technology, and third, pay attention to a group of China local raw material enterprises that are rising in the upstream of the industrial chain.

From January to New Year’s Eve, what about our festivals and oral folklore?

Cover journalist Li Yuxin
"The sound of firecrackers is one year old, and the spring breeze warms Tu Su." When I heard that this poem began to appear frequently, it goes without saying that the pace of the Lunar New Year is not far away. Looking forward to it for a year, the Spring Festival, which belongs to the most grand traditional festival of China people, is just around the corner.
In the old days, there was a proverb in Chengdu, which was called "carrots are sweet and sweet, and it is necessary to celebrate the New Year when you see them." In fact, for the old Chengdu people, the "New Year" clock has already rung when they enter the twelfth lunar month, that is, the twelfth lunar month. For more than a month before and after the Spring Festival, ordinary people spent it in an atmosphere full of rich flavor of the year and lively joy. From the Laba Festival on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, to the "small year" on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, and then to the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, "it took Chengdu people more than a month to finish the New Year, and the content of the Spring Festival was very rich." In the description of folklore expert Liu Xiaochang, the joyful and lively flavor of the year seems to reverberate through time and space.
Folk expert Liu Xiaochang
Don’t blame strict and strict, spring and winter pay in the first month.
Slight cold January 5 (the third day of the twelfth lunar month)
Slight cold, the penultimate solar term among the 24 solar terms, is also the fifth solar term in winter. According to "twenty-four solar term", "On the December Festival, the cold at the beginning of the month is still small, so the clouds are big." It shows that slight cold means cold air accumulated for a long time, which means that the weather is cold but not yet extreme. Like great cold, slight summer heat, great summer heat and summer heat, it is a solar term indicating the change of temperature.
The arrival of the slight cold solar terms also means that the coldest time of the year has arrived. According to Liu Xiaochang, as far as Chengdu is concerned, the temperature in the mild cold season is actually lower than that in the severe cold season. "Therefore, there is a saying that a slight cold is better than a great cold. However, whether it is cold or not in the slight cold season in Chengdu does not depend on the solar terms. What is important is to see whether the cold air is strong. "
In this season, walking in the streets and lanes of Chengdu, I suddenly smell a touch of dark fragrance. Don’t doubt that this is the wintersweet that is proudly open and fragrant in the cold winter. "In the slight cold season, Chengdu can be described as a fragrant city." At this time, flower farmers from Gaodianzi in the eastern suburbs, Flower Zhaobi and Baihuatan in the western suburbs, Phoenix Mountain in the northern suburbs and other places, carrying flower baskets and pushing floats, peddling wintersweet along the street …
"For thousands of years, Chengdu people have loved plum blossoms." Liu Xiaochang said that during the Southern Song Dynasty, the poet Lu You lived in Chengdu and wrote a poem "Plum Blossom Jueju", in which he wrote, "When I traveled to the west of Jincheng City, I was drunk for plum blossoms. Twenty miles of incense, Qingyang Palace to Huanhuaxi ". It can be seen that at that time, Chengdu people loved plum blossoms.
The wind and the meaning of the twelfth lunar month have been in spring, and when it is scattered, it has passed my neighbor.
January 10th of Laba Festival (the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month)
Labazhou (Tuyuan Network)
When it comes to Laba Festival, the first thing that comes to mind is naturally the warm and delicious Laba porridge that night. In Liu Xiaochang’s description, the "New Year" of Chengdu people in the old days began from Laba Festival, which is the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. "In the old days, on the day of Laba Festival, every household in Chengdu cooked Laba porridge, sacrificed ancestors and had family reunion. Everyone in the family eats a bowl of Laba porridge and presents it to relatives and friends to celebrate the family in this form. "
Laba porridge, also known as "seven treasures and five flavors porridge", "Buddha porridge" and "everyone’s rice", is a kind of porridge made of various ingredients. As early as the Song Dynasty, there were written records about Laba porridge. In the Southern Song Dynasty, Wu Zimu’s "Meng Liang Lu" contained: "On the eighth day of this month, the temple was called Laba. Temples such as Dasha have five-flavor porridge called Laba porridge. " Therefore, the history of drinking Laba porridge has been thousands of years.
Liu Xiaochang said that the ingredients of Laba porridge are exquisite. The ingredients for cooking Laba porridge are mostly cereals such as rice, glutinous rice, coix seed and millet, as well as beans such as red beans, soybeans, rice beans, mung beans and kidney beans, or cooked with dried fruits such as red dates, peanuts, coix seed, lotus seeds, chestnuts, walnuts, longan, ginkgo and almonds. "This pot of porridge is very rich in ingredients. In fact, there are far more than eight kinds. How to cook it depends mainly on the family’s family scenery and the income."
The old snow has not disappeared yet, and the new snow has a family.
January 20th of the Great Cold (the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month)
As the folk saying goes, "A slight cold and a great cold, there is no wind and it is cold" and "A slight cold and a great cold, and it is cold in a ball". It can be seen that in the severe cold season, the weather has been extremely cold. Because of the severe cold solar terms, it is generally in the period of "March 9th".
In ancient times, there was no accurate weather forecast, and people passed it on from mouth to mouth, and invented a folk method to calculate the dates of cold days and warm flowers in spring, called "Counting Nine". According to the folk algorithm, the number nine is counted from the date of the 24 solar terms "Winter Solstice", and every nine days is counted as a "nine", and so on. Generally speaking, "March 9th" is the coldest time in a year. There is a saying that "3949, pigs and dogs freeze to death". When you count to nine "nine days", that is, when you count to 9981 days, it will be deep in spring and warm in the day.
The Great Cold is the last of the 24 solar terms. After the severe cold, it will be beginning of spring, and people will usher in the solar cycle of the new year. Because the New Year’s Day is just around beginning of spring, the new year’s flavor is getting stronger when the cold comes. As a result, the customs of the great cold solar terms are mostly related to the Lunar New Year. People "sweep the dust" and "paste the windows", get rid of old cloth and new ones, clean up and wait for the arrival of the new year. At the same time, we should also "go to the market" to buy La Worship supplies and buy new year’s goods.
In addition to the spring thunder in the dark, the snow is not over yet.
Off-year January 2526 (Lunar December 23-24)
As soon as the new year arrives, people are busy sweeping dust and offering sacrifices to stoves. Off-year has always been regarded as the beginning of a "busy year". Due to the different customs in the north and south, the days called "off-year" are different, usually on the 23rd or 24th of the twelfth lunar month. "On the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, Chengdu people shouted off-year, and on this night, Master Kitchen God was sent to heaven. Every household in Chengdu has to offer sacrifices to the kitchen stove, that is, to the kitchen god. " Liu Xiaochang said.
Yao Wenhan in Qing Dynasty’s Celebration of the New Year’s Eve
Folk sacrificial stoves originated from the ancient custom of worshipping fire. The kitchen god’s duty is to take charge of the kitchen fire and manage the diet. Later, it was expanded to investigate the good and evil in the world, so as to reduce good and evil. The Ci of Sacrificing a Kitchen by Fan Chengda in the Song Dynasty: "According to the ancient legend, on the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, the kitchen ruler spoke to the sky … and sent you to the Tianmen to get drunk. Don’t go back to the clouds, begging for profit from the market."
"According to folklore, the kitchen god of every household in the past was sent to earth by the Jade Emperor to protect and observe the good and evil of this family. Seeing how many good deeds and evil deeds this family has done in this year, Kitchen God should remember them one by one. On the night of the twenty-third day of the twelfth lunar month, the Kitchen God will go to heaven and tell the Jade Emperor what this family has done in the past year, so as to bring misfortune and happiness. " Liu Xiaochang said, therefore, it is especially necessary to be cautious on this day, especially to warn your own dolls not to swear, so as not to be unclear.
The roar of firecrackers, the old one year has passed; The warm spring breeze came to the new year, and people drank happily the newly brewed tu su wine.
January 31st, New Year’s Eve (29th day of the twelfth lunar month)
When New Year’s Eve arrives, it means that the old year is over and the new year is replaced. Because New Year’s Eve often falls on the 29th or 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, it is also called New Year’s Eve. But this year’s New Year’s Eve, not on New Year’s Eve. As early as more than ten days ago, the topic # Spring Festival in 2022 has no 30th anniversary # on the hot search. According to astronomical experts, this is mainly related to the "Shuowangyue". The change of the moon is called a Shuowangyue once a week, with an average period of 29.5 days. It happens that the twelfth lunar month is a small moon in 2022, so there is no 30. But experts say that as long as the first day of the first month is still there, the night before is New Year’s Eve.
Qing Leng Mei’s "Spring Scene"
On New Year’s Eve, the most important thing for China families is the reunion dinner. For the old Chengdu people, it is no exception. "In fact, since the twelfth lunar month, every household in Chengdu has begun to prepare. Even people who have no money should try their best to cut a few kilograms of fresh meat and make some bacon to hang on the stove. Some people are very capable, making their own cakes, steaming rice cakes and making candy. " Liu Xiaochang described it.
"A meal to send the old age, spicy fresh food miscellaneous a few feast. Happy to be in the sky, a family size and reunion. " In the past, there was a Zhuzhi poem written in Chengdu, which is a true portrayal of the Chengdu People’s League Year. Of course, besides the reunion dinner, there are many traditional customs on New Year’s Eve, such as offering sacrifices to ancestors, putting up Spring Festival couplets, hanging New Year pictures in stick grilles, guarding the old age, and giving lucky money … The heads of families sit around a table and watch the children happily receive the red envelopes. The New Year’s Eve on the table is full of red couplets and window grilles. For Chinese people, a year’s hard work should be for the reunion and warmth of this moment.

On the chain of skiing contempt, spending 10 thousand yuan can only be regarded as "poor sliding"

Chifeng Meilin Valley Ski Resort, which has been in operation for ten years, has ushered in the hottest winter.
At 7 o’clock in the morning, 26-year-old Yu Yang got up from the bed of Meilin Valley Hotel, skillfully dressed a whole set of skiing equipment, picked up a snowboard about the same height, passed through Meilin Valley Visitor Center, put down the snowboard and slowly slid to the snow field 500 meters away from the hotel.
Meilin Valley Ski Resort is located in Meilin Town, Harqin Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia, and it is also the second closest ski resort to Yujia. The average temperature in winter reaches-20℃. According to the White Paper of China Ski Industry in 2020, at least 80,000 people will visit this ski resort in recent winter.
Especially this year, the number of skiers has obviously increased. Under the atmosphere of Beijing Winter Olympics, especially China’s Gu Ailing won the gold medal of freestyle skiing platform in Beijing Winter Olympics, which inspired more and more people’s skiing enthusiasm.
In the past Spring Festival holiday, young people no longer went to Sanya for a holiday, but went to major ski resorts in the north. Skiing is attracting more and more young people to enter the field. In the circle of friends, they are either skiing or on their way to the snow field.
Merchants are also using the atmosphere of the Winter Olympics to dig gold, and the accommodation, catering and ski equipment businesses around the snow field are constantly emerging. As a result, the competition and involution of venues, equipment and technology are also escalating. The equipment of 10,000 yuan is only the basic threshold for skiers. On top of this, the professional training of 15,000 yuan and the coaching qualification of 45,000 yuan are not the highest, but only higher.
Those who ask coaches look down on their own games, those who play with single boards look down on those who play with double boards, those who ski look down on those who take photos and punch cards, and those who run snow resorts are not as good as those who sell equipment and open hotels. On the ski resort, watersheds and chains of contempt are everywhere, and every step of the skier shows his net worth in this circle.
Spending nearly 10,000 yuan in the snow field for the New Year.
On the day before New Year’s Eve, Yu Yang set off from Dalian, arrived in Chifeng by car for seven hours, and directly stayed at Meilin Valley Hotel in the scenic spot.
"During the Spring Festival in Meilin Valley Ski Resort, the price of self-contained ski equipment is one day in 290 yuan, and the hotel accommodation is 615 yuan a day including breakfast. For seven days during the Spring Festival, it will cost 6,335 yuan for accommodation and snow tickets. If the meal is calculated at 100 yuan a day, the most basic travel expenses, accommodation and snow tickets for this skiing will exceed 8,000 yuan together. In addition, there are fuel costs and tolls from Dalian to Chifeng, totaling more than 1,400 yuan. " Yu Yang told the reporter of Phoenix WEEKLY Finance that he had spent nearly 10,000 yuan on a seven-day skiing trip.
Born in the northeast, Yu Yang was a skier in college. Living in Dalian, he has been to Chongli in Hebei and Yongji in Jilin to satisfy his skiing desire, in addition to the ordinary leisure ski resorts in the city.
"The snow season is too short and precious. I am on the snow field every weekend. During the Winter Olympics, I must find a better snow field to have an addiction."
According to the official WeChat introduction of Meilin Valley Ski Club, during the Spring Festival, the price of accommodation and skiing for two people is 1,400 yuan a day, with an average person in 700 yuan. If two people travel together, the cost performance will be higher than that of going alone.
Nevertheless, as the Meilin Valley Ski Resort, the price is much cheaper than Chongli.
According to the official platform of Chongli Wanlong Ski Resort, the snow ticket for two days on weekdays and weekends in the 2021-2022 snow season is 1,050 yuan, and the price for two days and one night of Shuanglong Hotel plus skiing ranges from 1,880 yuan to 3,350 yuan.
According to the pictures shared by consumers before, the price of snow tickets for two days on weekdays and weekends at Chongli Wanlong Ski Resort in the snow season of 2020-2021 is about 680 yuan, and the price for two days and one night at Shuanglong Hotel ranges from 1,269 yuan to 2,269 yuan. According to this price comparison, in the snow season of 2021-2022, the snow ticket price of Chongli Wanlong Ski Resort rose by about 54%, and the accommodation price rose by about 44%.
Although skiing is not a cheap sport, under the influence of the winter Olympic atmosphere, many areas have sought to take advantage of ice and snow to go out. In December, 2021, the advertisement of Changchun Ice and Snow Festival has reached the gate of Beijing Jianguomen subway station, and there have been many advertisements and publicity activities with the theme of ice and snow sports in Sanlitun.
The configuration of the snow field is also trying to upgrade. For example, Chifeng Meilin Valley, Chongli Taiwu Ski Resort and so on, hotels, restaurants, hot springs, cinemas and other supporting facilities are readily available, which has changed from a sports ground to a holiday resort.
The live video shot by Yu Yang to reporters shows that there are still many skiers who shuttle back and forth on the snow field on the third day of the New Year’s Day. You can even see some children.
At Chongli Taiwu Ski Resort, Ms. Zhou from Beijing is having a good time with her two sons. She and her eldest son skied on the advanced track in tandem, while the younger son was being taught the primary skills by the coach on the primary track.
"Taiwu has Marriott, Hyatt, and a family multi-bedroom apartment. The accommodation is the best among several snow resorts. There are also hot springs, relaxing in a hot spring after skiing, and watching movies. There are many choices for leisure activities. " Ms. Zhou said.
Single board looks down on double board, and skiers look down on punch cards.
The temperature of the Meilin Valley Ski Resort in Chifeng keeps between -10℃ and -20℃ all the year round. However, Yu Yang, who has just galloped down the advanced snow trail, looks radiant and ruddy.
"I’m sure it’s not cold. It won’t be cold to ski. Moreover, I wore three layers inside and outside. First, the quick-drying clothes are very tight and close to the body, which can lock the body temperature. This set of quick-drying clothes costs 3,000 yuan. I put a thermal underwear on the outside of the quick-drying clothes, and then I put a shin warmer and a warm baby in the ski suit, fully armed. "
Yu Yang said that he is a "poor skater" in the purchase of ski equipment. Based on the principle of ensuring professionalism and saving money, he did not excessively pursue famous brands. He showed his annual bill for ski equipment to reporters.
"ATOMIC snowshoes are almost 3,000 yuan, BURTON snowboard is about 3,500 yuan, snow goggles is 1,200 yuan, second-hand Bern helmet 500 yuan, a set of X-bionic quick-drying clothes is 3,000 yuan, BURTON’s second-hand board fixer was found at that time, more than 1,000 yuan, ski suit 800 yuan and protective gear 800 yuan. Overall, these basic equipments add up to almost 13,000 yuan. "
This is obviously not the poorest way to play. Mu Zi, a college student in Beijing, shared the raiders on Little Red Book. It shows that with the full-time college student ID card of Chinese mainland, you can make an appointment for free skiing through the Wanlong Holiday Paradise service number. You only need to pay 20 yuan insurance, and you can even make an appointment for several days, and you can make an appointment twice a month. In addition, the round-trip toll from Beijing to Prince Edward City only needs 190 yuan, college students only need 100 yuan for one day to rent ski gear, and the average person in the surrounding homestays is 80-100 yuan. The student party with limited living expenses can also experience the joy of skiing with a budget of 500.
In terms of input cost, skiing seems to be a sport of "no cap on the top and no limit on the bottom".
At the top of the ski circle, it is natural to go abroad to the ski resort under the Swiss Alps, where there is unparalleled pure beauty and the best powder snow in the Alps. Britain’s Prince Charles, Prince William and Princess Kate are all frequent visitors here.
In China, Yabuli in Northeast China is a resort frequented by entrepreneurs. With the opportunity of the annual Yabuli Forum, many business tycoons have competed on the resort, and their momentum and influence are no less than the dinner during the Wuzhen Internet Conference.
Among them, Wang Shi, the founder of Vanke, experienced skiing for the first time in 1996 at Yabuli Snow Resort. According to a "Yabuli Forum Skiing List" circulating on the Internet, during a recent Yabuli Forum, Ma Yun, Lei Jun, Li Yanhong, Wang Shi, Li Guoqing and other business tycoons all appeared on the skiing list.
Distinguish between high-end and low-end, the price of ski resort and ski equipment is the first watershed, followed by gameplay.
"Please ask the coach to look down on his own play, and those who play single board look down on playing double board." Yu Yang told the reporter of Phoenix WEEKLY Finance that the skiing circle has such an unwritten ranking. Comparatively speaking, it’s easier to get started with double boards, while it’s more exciting with single boards.
However, skiers living abroad believe that the advancement of double boards can better reflect the technical level. "Many foreigners who go skiing in the Alps abroad are more popular with skateboarding." In the snow season of 2020-2021, Ms. Wang and her friends signed up for a ski course of a famous ski instructor in London, and she studied snowboarding. "When I went skiing in Switzerland, only old people skated on the single board, or the double board was fast."
Whether it’s a single board or a double board, everyone will feel the excitement brought by the sudden surge of adrenaline when they sprint down from the top of the high-grade road.
As for technology, skiers who have reached a certain stage can take the CASI coaching certificate in the Canadian skiing system. Level 1 is the most elementary coaching level. You can teach skiers at the elementary level by winning the Level 1 certificate.
Yu Yang said that the process of textual research and driving test is similar, and both need to receive training for a period of time. CASI coaching certificate includes four levels, first study and then test.
According to the official WeChat of Maple Ski Industry, the CASI coaching certificate training institution, the certification fee for Level 1 coaching is 7,200 yuan for 5 days, and the training place is Wanlong and Fulong Ski Resort in Chongli. According to preliminary estimates, the prices of snow tickets in these two places are already above average in China. Coupled with transportation, tickets and accommodation costs, the cost of obtaining this ski instructor certificate is at least 15,000 yuan.
Such a price is still "someone outside the person." Ms. Wang and her friends signed up for another skiing course in Britain. The whole course has ten lessons, and the price is 5,000 pounds (about 45,000 yuan). The coach promised to reach the L1 level of junior coach after the whole course. However, when asked if she has reached such a technical level now, Ms. Wang said with a wry smile: "I only went to class two or three times, and I don’t have time to go there again." But I will feel that I have taken a class, and I am confident when I go skiing with my friends in Switzerland. "
Different ski resorts, different consumption levels and technical levels have formed different classes of skiing. But there is a class that all skiers despise, that is, the "online celebrity" posing in the snow field.
Zhang Yiqing (pseudonym) is a self-media anchor in Hangzhou. This winter, her company specially arranged for her to go on a business trip to Wanda Ski Resort in Changbai Mountain, Jilin Province to shoot short videos on skiing-related topics.
"I never liked outdoor sports before. I couldn’t run 800 meters in college, but I went to work." Zhang Yiqing said. According to the work arrangement, she stayed at Park Hyatt Hotel in Changbai Mountain all the time, mainly learning a few simple moves, wearing brand ski clothes and taking some beautiful photos with sports bra. "I have to say that the snow field is really out, and later the short video works are also a little hot."
But in Yu Yang’s view, such behavior is unsafe on the one hand, and misleading ordinary skiers on the other.
"These people are not serious about skiing, and it is very dangerous to pose on the snowy road; There are still many beautiful women wearing cool clothes. Taking such photos on social platforms will mislead people who don’t understand skiing, thinking that skiing doesn’t need to wear a lot. In fact, it is very important to keep warm during skiing. "
It is difficult to make a profit on the ski resort, and the equipment sells well.
The skiing atmosphere didn’t just rise this year. Foreign media quoted domestic data in China, showing that in 2015, when Beijing won the bid to host the 2022 Winter Olympics, the number of skiers in China had reached 12.5 million, and since then, it has doubled to 26 million.
According to the data of the State Sports General Administration, by 2025, the total scale of China’s ice and snow industry will reach 1 trillion yuan.
Enterprise survey data show that by the end of November 2020, there were 5,008 ski-related enterprises in China, including 1,684 ski-related enterprises. Harbin has become the largest city with 416 ski-related enterprises, while Zhangjiakou and Beijing rank second and third. Judging from the ranking of provinces, Hebei, Heilongjiang and Guangdong rank in the top three, and the three northeastern provinces account for 27% of the country.
Despite this, in the past few years, the key word around large snow resorts has always been "loss".
According to public reports, Wanlong Ski Resort in Zhangjiakou has been losing money for ten years since it opened in the 2004-2005 snow season. In the meantime, only in the 2014-2015 snow season, influenced by Beijing’s bid to host the 2022 Winter Olympics, it made a profit for the first time. After 2017, Wanlong lost money again.
Zhang Litao, general manager of Chongli Fulong Ski Resort, once worked in Taiwu Town. He told the reporter of Phoenix WEEKLY Finance that the ski resort is a means to attract guests, and the profit point is not by selling snow tickets, but by consumer behavior other than skiing. As a complex of lifestyles, the ski resort wants to attract not all skiers, but skiers, junior high school skiers and middle-class families with children, and turn skiing into a holiday habit for middle-class families, which is as popular as playing golf.
"According to this goal, the design of the ski resort must emphasize fun and fashion." Zhang Litao said, "Advanced trails only account for 30%, and snowy trails pay attention to visual and entertainment effects. There is a theme sculpture on the mountain, which will change every year. A DJ square is built in the middle of the snow field to render the snow field with music. The town’s fun park is divided into four difficult areas: black, pink, blue and orange, which not only improves skiing skills, but also allows more people to experience skiing fun. "
Indeed, outside the snow field, what is really hot is the business of equipment sales, accommodation and catering, and even the surrounding housing prices. After the successful bid for the 2022 Winter Olympics, the house price of Chongli in Zhangjiakou generally soared to more than 10,000 yuan/m 2, and even individual projects reached 30,000 yuan/m 2.
"In 2015, the number of guests with their own skis did not exceed 20% of the total number," a coach of Dalian Happy Snow World told the reporter of Phoenix WEEKLY Finance. "Now more than half of the guests enter the ski resort with their own equipment, and the number of single boards has exceeded that of double boards. Snowsuit helmets are basically self-contained, and there are many fashionable and big-name figures. There are more and more young people, the market is rich, and the new generation of consumption power has also risen. "
According to the data of Tmall platform, during the "Double Eleven" period in 2021, the sales of ski products increased by 120% year-on-year. The data recently released by AliExpress, a cross-border e-commerce platform, also shows that in the fourth quarter of 2021, the overseas sales of ski products in China increased by over 60% year-on-year.
"Most experienced skiers start by renting equipment. Generally, the ski resort package includes the cost of renting clothes and ski gear. However, after having certain skiing experience, they usually choose to buy it themselves. "
Fashion luxury brands and high-end sports brands are striving to seize this market opportunity. Luxury brands such as LVMH, Gucci, Prada, Dior, etc. have also spared no effort in the huge white market, and rushed to launch joint-name ski suits, snowboards and other equipment. A snowboard in LV costs 40,000 yuan, which is 10 times that of ordinary professional ski brands.
The financing of the ice and snow industry is also reflected in related industries. In 2021, social APP Slippery received a 40 million yuan A round investment from Gaochun, and Aoxue Culture, which owns two ski equipment brands of "Zero Summer" and "NOBADAY", completed the A round financing in October 2021, with an amount of tens of millions of yuan; SNOW 51 also completed the A and A+ rounds of financing in the same year, with an amount exceeding 100 million yuan.
In fact, under the hot atmosphere, the snow field is not worried about passenger flow. However, the profitability of the ski resort depends on the construction of hardware facilities and the improvement of basic service capabilities.
For families with children, Taiwu team set up a children’s ski service center. When parents ski, they entrust their children to the service center, where there will be children’s instructors to teach skiing.
"In the future, these children from middle-class families who were brought to ski vacations will be the backbone of China’s ski market in the next two decades." Zhang Litao said.

Chashan Road Network, contention village, Huishan Town, wutongqiao district City, Leshan City.

At the end of the year, millions of acres of tea gardens in Sichuan are brewing a new season next spring.

On December 15th, the e-commerce live broadcast base of the national tea industry was officially unveiled in the Science Park of Chuancha Group, Jinqiuhu Town, Cuiping District, Yibin City. As one of the earliest spring teas listed in Sichuan, the pre-sale information of Yibin morning tea was released simultaneously on the whole network in 2024.

In 2023, Sichuan tea achieved gratifying results: the tea garden area in the province was stable at about 5.9 million mu, and the comprehensive output value was 120 billion yuan. This is the third consecutive year that the annual output value of Sichuan tea has exceeded 100 billion yuan, and it continues to maintain a high-spirited attitude of steady progress.

The construction of high-standard bases continues to advance, the intensive processing continues to break through, and the "Sichuan tea leaves Sichuan" runs out of the "acceleration" … In 2023, Sichuan tea handed over a high score answer sheet to help the rural areas revitalize in an all-round way.

The construction of high-standard bases continued to advance.

At the end of December, in Sanguan Village, Wuchang Town, Jiajiang County, Leshan City, the tea trees all over the mountains were green and green. Sanguan Village is the largest export tea filing base in Jiajiang County, and just finished picking this summer and autumn tea a few months ago. Promote standardized planting, machine-picked summer and autumn tea, and supply products to overseas markets. Sanguan Village was rated as "National Rural Characteristic Industry 100 million Village" by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs a few years ago.

Behind the completion of the "100 million yuan village" is the unremitting efforts of Sanguan Village to standardize and scale up the tea base.

According to the insiders, Sichuan tea was once faced with the dilemma of large area but scattered planting, many tea farmers but few large-scale operations. It is a key step to realize modern operation and improve economic benefits to build a small-scale, scattered tea garden into a large-scale, standardized, green, improved variety, digital and mechanized high-standard tea base.

Nowadays, in Sanguan Village, pieces of standardized tea gardens can be seen everywhere, and large-scale tea gardens have been formed, which has promoted the development of tea industry in the county. Jiajiang tea industry base has been built on a larger scale, with a tea planting area of 300,000 mu, including 100,000 mu of export tea filing base. In 2022, Jiajiang County’s tea export volume and export volume ranked first in the province.

In Sichuan, such tea bases are multiplying.

Since the beginning of this year, Sichuan has focused on the provincial-level projects such as the superior characteristic industrial cluster of morning tea in southwest Sichuan, the industrial cluster of black tea in Gongfu, and the strong town of agricultural industry, strengthened cooperation with academicians and scientific research institutions such as Sichuan Agricultural University, Tea Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and Tea Research Institute of Sichuan Academy of Agricultural Sciences, strengthened Industry-University-Research’s collaborative research, popularized technologies such as machine mining, machine tillage and machine defense, and comprehensively applied the "two substitutes" green production and low-yield and low-efficiency tea garden transformation technologies. At the same time, implement integrated facilities of water and fertilizer in suitable areas, and vigorously promote the scale, standardization, greening, improved varieties, digitalization and mechanization of industrial bases.

A piece of high-standard tea garden is rapidly formed. The data shows that in 2023, the area of clonal tea gardens in the province reached 5,244,900 mu, an increase of 110,600 mu over the previous year; The area of low-yield and low-efficiency tea gardens in the province has reached 1.7 million mu, the area of mechanical tea gardens has reached 2.7637 million mu, and the area of green prevention and control has reached 4.615 million mu.

A batch of demonstration bases has accelerated. This year, tea bases in Rongxian County, Zigong City and Pingwu County, Mianyang City were selected into the list of high-quality development bases for agricultural international trade in the whole province, Shuang Fu Town, Emei Mountain City and Jiezi Town, Chongzhou City were selected as national agricultural industrial strong towns, Tuanba Town, Dazhu County, Caoba Town, Yucheng District, Ya ‘an City, Xintian Town, Yingjing County, Bazhong City, Yunding Town, wangcang county Mumen Town, Guangyuan City and Kuiduo Town, Jiulong County, Ganzi Prefecture were selected as provincial agricultural industrial strong towns.

The deep processing of tea has been continuously broken through.

Near the end of the year, a large number of agricultural industrial projects in Sichuan have been accelerated.

In Fenghuanghu Village, Dadukou Town, Naxi District, Luzhou City, the agricultural and sideline products processing park (tea processing factory) in Naxi District will speed up the decoration and equipment installation, and it is planned to be put into operation before the end of the year. After the park is put into operation, the annual processing capacity will reach 5,000 tons, which will effectively solve the problems of local tea planting, processing and sales, further enhance the tea processing capacity of Naxi Tea Modern Agricultural Park, extend the industrial chain, and cultivate and expand the scale of Naxi tea trading market.

As the "hometown of early morning tea in China", Naxi District is the earliest area where tea trees germinate at the same latitude in the world. In recent years, Naxi District regards the tea industry as one of the leading industries in the whole region, and based on the development idea of "early and organic", it cultivates refined Sichuan tea and builds a billion-dollar tea industry.

In view of the problems faced by Sichuan tea, such as low comprehensive utilization rate of tea deep processing and insufficient development of high-tech products and high value-added products, it is listed as an important matter for the high-quality development of Sichuan tea industry to improve the processing level of refined Sichuan tea. This year, Sichuan has further promoted the clean and standardized construction of tea enterprises, promoted the continuous, automatic, digital and intelligent transformation of production lines, improved the grading and product packaging capabilities, and improved the production efficiency and processing level of processing equipment. Around the construction of enterprise raw material base, guide the nearest standardized layout of processing workshops, transform and optimize processing equipment, and realize clean production.

The proportion of high-end famous tea continues to increase. This year, the province’s famous tea output reached 258,000 tons, the output value reached 35.49 billion yuan, the clean processing rate reached more than 75%, the mechanism rate reached 92%, and the facilities and equipment such as storage, preservation and cold chain logistics were more perfect. The output of characteristic craft teas such as yellow tea, white tea and purple tea continued to increase. This year, the output of yellow tea and purple tea in Guangyuan reached 70 tons and 1.2 tons respectively, with an output value of 1 billion yuan and 0.2 billion yuan.

The development of extended chain products continued to accelerate. This year, Guangyuan introduced the team of Liu Minru, a master of traditional Chinese medicine, to develop the value of brand tea, and Ya ‘an and west china hospital jointly studied the value of Tibetan tea, continuously extending the industrial chain and strengthening the value chain.

"Sichuan tea leaves Sichuan" runs out of "acceleration"

On November 15th, at the first China (Heilongjiang) International Green Food and National Soybean Industry Expo, the billboard printed with "Tianfu Longya Quality Sichuan Tea" was particularly conspicuous.

"This is Sichuan Tea’s’ Kanto’ after four years!" A comparison of the participation of Sichuan tea made Jiang Ningshan, deputy secretary of Sichuan Sichuan Sichuan Tea Brand Promotion Association, happy-four years ago, at the seventh Heilongjiang Green Food Industry Expo, there were only four tea enterprises in the province participating in the 200-square-meter exhibition area. In this activity, the 288-square-meter exhibition area occupied two-thirds of the product display, and the remaining space was crowded into 10 tea enterprises.

Not just an exhibition. This year, in Harbin Dafa International Tea City, as the first "stagnation point" of Sichuan tea in Northeast China, the Harbin Marketing Promotion Center of "Sichuan Tianfu Longya Quality Sichuan Tea" officially opened, which will exert its strength in the fields of Sichuan tea culture communication, Sichuan tea brand marketing, market development, regional investment promotion and joining, and form a complete three-dimensional service system. In addition, at the end of November, the promotion activity of Tianfu Longya Micangshan Tea in Urumqi was held in Urumqi Economic and Technological Development Zone (Toutunhe District), and the pace of Sichuan tea leaving Sichuan was more intensive.

The relevant person in charge of Sichuan Chuancha Brand Promotion Association introduced that this year Sichuan established an operating mechanism for the development, promotion, protection and utilization of Sichuan tea brands, built a brand system of "regional brand+enterprise brand+product brand", and promoted the construction of national and provincial geographical indication product protection demonstration zones. At the same time, adhere to the "Tianfu Longya" provincial public brand as the guide, and jointly promote the creation of regional public brands such as "three mountains and one red in the morning", establish and improve the brand standard system, increase the intensity of standard implementation and use, and conduct enterprise self-inspection, government sampling inspection and social supervision on products.

"Sichuan tea leaves Sichuan" runs out of "acceleration" This year, we continued to intensify the promotion of brand and quality Sichuan tea, and successively held tea events such as Sichuan Tea Mining Week, the 12th Sichuan International Tea Expo, the 4th International (Leshan) Green Tea Conference, and participated in exhibitions and sales activities such as China International Tea Expo and China (Chongqing) International Tea Industry Expo. During the Chengdu Universiade, Guangyuan Huangcha held a promotion activity of "Join hands with the Universiade to play in Guangyuan", and Yibin, Guangyuan, Ya ‘an and other places held promotion activities in Beijing, Urumqi and other major sales areas to further promote "Sichuan tea out of Sichuan".

Brand value continues to improve. This year, in the national tea regional public brand value selection, "Tianfu Longya" achieved excellent results of 4.321 billion yuan, and regional public brands such as "Mengdingshan Tea" and "Emeishan Tea" were among the best. In the list of 100 "Tianfu Granary" boutique (cultivated) brands released in 2023, 29 tea regional public brands, corporate brands and product brands were selected.

The new track boosts Sichuan tea "out of the circle". In April this year, Sichuan Shucha Industrial Group Co., Ltd. launched a new tea brand "Tea Tea Master" in Taikooli, Chengdu; In September, Sichuan Tea Group Co., Ltd. created a new Chinese tea shop "Chuanyan Tea Language" and opened four stores in Yibin at the same time; In November, during the Wuzhen Summit in world internet conference, the new tea "Freeze-dried Flash White Tea Coffee" under the regional public brand of "Dazhu White Tea" in Dazhu County was officially released.

Live broadcast with goods continuously enhances the influence of Sichuan tea. Sichuan Tea Industry Group Co., Ltd. relies on the advantage of "tea industry e-commerce live broadcast base" to realize the transformation of traffic and sales through high-frequency exposure of e-commerce live broadcast, accelerate the development of market-oriented branding, attract the concentration of external capital, resources and talent elements, open up the internal and external circulation of tea industry chain, and help "Sichuan tea leaves Sichuan" and brand break through.

Promote the high-quality development of refined Sichuan tea

"By 2030, the annual comprehensive output value of Sichuan tea will exceed 200 billion yuan, basically building a strong province of modern tea industry." Nowadays, it is getting closer and closer to achieving this goal, and the idea of accelerating the high-quality development of refined Sichuan tea is clearer.

Promote the improvement of tea garden quality and efficiency. We will continue to implement the construction of the dominant characteristic industrial cluster of morning tea in southwest Sichuan and the industrial cluster of black tea in Gongfu, Sichuan, guide the modern tea industrial park with foundation to establish a national modern agricultural industrial park, comprehensively promote the upgrading and transformation of low-yield and inefficient tea gardens, build a number of demonstration films of famous and excellent tea by machine, and build a record base for export tea. Promote the application of equipment such as fertilizer and water integration and smart tea gardens in areas where conditions permit, and improve the modernization level of tea gardens.

Improve the processing level of refined Sichuan tea. Support the initial processing into the base, build a processing workshop based on the specifications of the raw material base, and comprehensively improve the level of initial processing in the place of origin. Encourage refined processing into the park, improve storage and preservation facilities and equipment, improve the ability of grading and product packaging, and improve the quality, quality and commercialization of refined Sichuan tea. Accelerate the development of "new tea", expand the application of tea in medicine, health care products, food and cosmetics, and extend the industrial chain. Support the development of characteristic products such as yellowed tea, albino tea and purple tea.

Cultivate and expand the main body of market operation. We will promote the close cooperation and development of state-owned capital and private enterprises around primary, refined and deep-processed tea products and upstream and downstream related industries, and encourage powerful enterprises to integrate resources across regions. Relying on the working mechanism of "specialized and innovative" small and medium-sized enterprises and large enterprises and groups, we will develop a number of key benchmark tea enterprises with strong rural revitalization and driving force. Support leading tea enterprises to actively participate in the construction of tea industrialization consortium led by village collective economic organizations, farmers’ professional cooperatives, family farms and tea farmers, and promote the action of "prospering thousands of villages with Sichuan tea".

Create a famous brand in tea industry. Continue to implement the brand-building strategy of "regional brand+enterprise brand+product brand", and support the provincial-level regional public brand of "Tianfu Longya" to hold promotion activities in the main sales area to enhance brand value and product sales. Support the creation of regional public brands such as Mengdingshan Tea, Emeishan Tea, Micangshan Tea, Yibin Morning Tea and Chuanhong Gongfu Tea, and enhance the visibility of regional brands.

Build a marketing network. Establish and improve the marketing system of Sichuan tea, and explore the market-oriented and long-term operation mechanism of Sichuan tea marketing promotion center. Make Sichuan International Tea Expo a well-known tea industry exhibition in China. Organize key leading enterprises to actively participate in "China International Tea Expo", "China (Heilongjiang) International Green Food and National Soybean Industry Expo", and other major exhibition and sales activities to expand the market share of Sichuan tea. Open up direct sales channels for consumers such as live broadcast and delivery, and guide the standardized development of tea e-commerce.

Continue to promote the integration of tea tourism. Promote the construction of tea gardens as scenic spots, and develop a "tea tour" economy that integrates tea garden sightseeing, tea making experience, tea art appreciation and leisure and health preservation. Unify the development of tea industry with the construction of livable and suitable industries and beautiful rural areas, improve service facilities, empower tea, and promote the integration and mutual promotion of production villages and production cities. Dig deep into promoting Sichuan tea culture and tell good stories about Sichuan tea.

Looking to the future, Sichuan Tea, which stands at a new starting point, aims at a new goal and continues to help the rural areas to revitalize in an all-round way!(Xialv Image courtesy of Sichuan Sichuan Tea Brand Promotion Association)

Hold on to Helan Mountain without stopping work on New Year’s Day.

The branch line of Baoyin high-speed railway Yinba (Yinchuan to Bayanhaote) is an important part of the Jinglan passage of China’s "eight vertical and eight horizontal" railway network, and its Helanshan tunnel is the first single-track tunnel for passenger dedicated lines with a design speed of 200 kilometers per hour. Because it passes through Helan Mountain and the Ming Great Wall, it is necessary to protect the ecological environment and ensure the safety of cultural relics during the construction of Helan Mountain Tunnel. On New Year’s Day holiday, more than 400 railway builders of China Railway 15th Bureau fought for the front line of Helanshan Tunnel construction, racing against time to seize the construction period.

News materials: The Fifth Middle East War (1982)

  -Israel invaded Lebanon


  On June 6, 1982, on the pretext that its ambassador to Britain was assassinated by Palestinian guerrillas, Israel dispatched more than 100,000 army, navy and air force to launch a large-scale attack on the Palestine Liberation Organization guerrillas and Syrian troops in Lebanon. It took only a few days to occupy half of Lebanon. This is the biggest war between Israel and Arab countries since the death of four Middle East wars, and it is called the "Fifth Middle East War".


  War background


  Generally speaking, the cause of the Lebanon-Israel war is still the continuation of the Palestinian dispute. The main purpose of Israel’s invasion of Lebanon is to destroy the Palestine Liberation Organization, seek to establish a pro-Israel regime in Lebanon and crowd out Syrian troops in Lebanon.


  In order to establish their own country, the Palestinians established the Palestine Liberation Organization in May 1964 and launched a war with Israel. The PLO guerrillas are based in neighboring Arab countries, mainly in Syria and Lebanon. In 1970, the headquarters of the PLO and the main guerrilla force led by it entered Lebanon from Jordan, and later directly intervened in Lebanon’s domestic struggle, propped up and armed Islamic forces, and cracked down on pro-Israel Christian forces, gradually taking control of southern Lebanon and Beirut, the capital, and becoming a "country within a country". And build military facilities, attack and shell northern Israel from time to time, especially in the fourth Middle East War, the PLO guerrillas assisted Egyptian and Syrian troops to launch guerrilla warfare and attacked Israeli military bases, warehouses and radar stations. Become a menace to Israel.


  In 1982, Israel felt that the time had come: first, the war between Britain and Oman broke out and became the focus of international attention; Secondly, the Iran-Iraq war continues, and the two countries have no time to take care of it. There are contradictions between Arab countries that support Iran and Iraq, and the Arab world has been torn apart; Third, the domestic situation in Syria, which may support and cooperate with the PLO in the war, is unstable, and there are also contradictions between Palestine and Syria; Fourth, we can use the pro-Israeli forces in Lebanon-Christian armed forces; Fifth, after the return of Sinai Peninsula, Egypt and Israel have reached a settlement, and Egypt will not get involved in the war.

  The West Road is the main direction of the Israeli army, and has invested more than five brigades. The first echelon, with two armored brigades, each with 200 tanks and armored vehicles, set out from Nahariya and Rushhanikla, surrounded Sur in Nakura and Bint Jubail through the areas controlled by haddad militia and United Nations forces, and launched siege fighting with the cooperation of airborne troops and landing troops and Lebanese haddad militia.

On the 11th,The main force of the Israeli army arrived near Beirut International Airport, and the other part fought against the Syrian army. In order to negotiate with the PLO, Syria declared a ceasefire with Israel according to Israeli conditions when the PLO was in extreme difficulties, and the ceasefire took effect at 12 o’clock local time. Since then, Syria and Israel have stopped fighting. On the 12th, the Israeli army continued to attack the PLO position in the southern suburbs of Beirut, which met with stubborn resistance from the PLO armed forces. At 19: 00 GMT, the ceasefire between Israel and Palestine came into effect. Seven hours later, the two sides opened fire again. On the 13th, the Israeli army entered the eastern part of Beirut, and immediately, with the cooperation of the Phalangist militia, the Israeli army surrounded about 8,000 PLO guerrillas in the western and southern parts of Beirut.


  With the middle road as the direction of assist, a brigade, the first echelon of the Israeli army, set out from Shemola area on the morning of 6th, crossed Haldali, surrounded Fort Shojaei, and the main force Nabatiyah attacked. On the afternoon of the same day, the Israeli army began to storm Fort Shojaei and conquered it at dawn on 7th. An armored brigade of the second echelon entered the battle, besieged Nabatiyah with the cooperation of paratroopers, and broke into the city at 9: 00 on the 7 th. A small number of troops started street fighting with the PLO guerrillas, and the main force continued to advance northward, and the day before yesterday, it went out to Jiejin area.

From September 9 to 11, Syria lost about 150 tanks in the battle.


  2. Air combat in Bekaa Valley


  In order to seize the air superiority, Israel decided to attack Syria’s missile base in Bekaa Valley to eliminate its air defense capability. This is also one of the main purposes of the Israeli invasion of Lebanon.


  Bekaa Valley is located in the eastern part of Lebanon near the Syrian border. It is a long and narrow strip from south to north. The mountains on both sides of the valley are continuous and the terrain is dangerous. The main ground troops stationed in Lebanon are deployed here. In order to protect this unit from Israeli air strikes, Syria has deployed air defense units with Sam-6 missiles as the main equipment in the Bekaa Valley since May 1981.


  At about 2 pm on June 9, the Israeli army dispatched 96 F-15 and F-16 fighter planes for high-altitude cover, and under the command of E-2C early warning aircraft, F-4 and A-4 attack planes bombed the missile base in the Bekaa Valley violently.


  When the Syrian army learned of the Israeli air raid, it dispatched more than 60 MiG-21 and MiG-23 fighter jets from all over the country, gathered in Bekaa, and launched an air battle with the Israeli army. Due to the electronic interference of the Israeli army, the Syrian army aircraft lost contact with the ground after taking off, and the anti-aircraft missiles also lost control after launching. The quality and equipment of Israeli pilots were better than those of the Syrian Air Force, and they took the initiative in the air. However, the Syrian Air Force was inflexible in tactics and relied too much on the command of the ground command post, resulting in passive beatings in the air. On the first day of air combat, the Israeli army destroyed 19 positions of Syrian air defense missile company and shot down 29 Syrian aircraft. On the 10th, the Israeli army dispatched 92 planes of various types to attack the Syrian army’s Lebanese command post and the nearby air defense missile base. The Syrian army took off 52 planes to fight, and as a result, 25 planes were shot down and 7 air defense missile companies were destroyed. Syria has been operating in the Bekaa Valley for more than 10 years, and the air defense system costing $2 billion was destroyed, while Israel lost only 10 aircraft, including 6 drones and helicopters.


  It took only eight days (June 6-13) for the Israeli army to advance more than 90 kilometers, occupy about 3,000 square kilometers of Lebanese territory, destroy all the bases of the PLO guerrillas in southern Lebanon, wipe out a large number of PLO effective forces, seize all the PLO warehouses in southern Lebanon, and surround the PLO headquarters with 2,000 people and 5,000 armed men in the west and south of Beirut. At the same time, it dealt a heavy blow to the Syrian army.


  In the second stage (June 14th-September 15th), the PLO withdrew from the west area of Beirut, and the Israeli army won.


  On June 14th, after fierce fighting, the Israeli army took control of the runway of the international airport. On June 16th, with the cooperation of the Phalangist militia, the Israeli army captured the Science College Building, an important stronghold for controlling the airport. On the 17th, the Israeli army shelled the international airport and nearby areas, took control of Hadile International Airport, and further reduced the siege of the PLO headquarters. On the 18th, the Israeli army announced a ceasefire to the besieged PLO, but demanded that it lay down its arms and withdraw from Beirut, which was rejected by the PLO. On the 22nd, the Israeli army attacked the Syrian army again, and occupied Hamdoon, forcing the Syrian army to retreat, thus tightly controlling the west area of Beirut.


  From June 26th, the Israeli army continued to strengthen its troops surrounding the West Beirut and its defense against the Syrian army. By July 18th, the troops surrounding the West Beirut had increased to about 35,000 men in seven brigades, with about 700 tanks and 710 large-caliber artillery pieces. Trying to cooperate with political negotiations with military pressure, forcing the PLO to withdraw from Beirut West Area.


  On June 27th, the seventh emergency special session of the General Assembly adopted a resolution demanding that Israel cease fire immediately and withdraw its troops from Lebanon unconditionally. At this time, in order to preserve its strength, the PLO agreed to leave Beirut West. On the 28th, the PLO put forward three conditions for Israel to withdraw from Lebanon: (1) Israeli troops should withdraw 5 kilometers from the south of Beirut; (2) Keeping a symbolic Palestinian military unit in the Lebanese army; (3) Keep the political structure of the PLO in Beirut. Israel rejected these three conditions, demanding that relevant PLO groups must surrender their arms to the Lebanese Army and all PLO members should withdraw from Beirut and Lebanon. On July 6, the PLO refused to be escorted by the US military, demanding that a multinational peace force be deployed in Beirut to escort the PLO armed forces to evacuate safely. On August 1st, the Israeli army captured the international airport, entered the museum area in the west area of Beirut on the 4th, surrounded the PLO headquarters building on the 5th, and bombed the PLO headquarters building on the 6th. During this period, the Israeli army also bombed the Bekaa Valley.


  On August 12th, PLO announced its willingness to withdraw from Beirut West Zone. From August 21st to September 1st, more than 12,000 PLO headquarters and guerrillas were evacuated from Beirut West Zone to eight Arab countries including Jordan, Iraq, Tunisia, Sudan, Syria, Algeria, South Yemen and North Yemen. 25,000 Syrian soldiers stationed in Beirut West also withdrew to Bekaa Valley on August 30th and September 1st. From 21 to 25, French, American and Italian soldiers of the multinational force arrived in Beirut in batches to perform the task of guarding the withdrawal of the PLO and Syrian troops from the western part of Beirut. On September 10-13, the multinational forces also left Lebanon one after another.


  On September 15th, the Israeli army moved into the west area of Beirut on the grounds that Lebanese President Bacher Gemayel was killed. Under the pressure of international public opinion, on September 29, the Israeli army withdrew, and multinational peace forces returned to Beirut West District to maintain order. But a large number of Israeli troops still occupy it. After five months of negotiations, Lebanon and Israel signed a withdrawal agreement. However, both Syria and the PLO opposed this agreement and the agreement was abolished. Since then, the Israeli army has unilaterally withdrawn from Lebanon in batches.


  In this war, more than 3,000 people were killed or injured in the saline-alkali land of the PLO, more than 100 tanks were destroyed, 500 guns were fired, and more than 400 secret warehouses were occupied. The Syrian army suffered more than 1,000 casualties, lost more than 400 tanks and 58 aircraft.

Originally and the future, fashion and movies are inextricably linked.

Fashion and movies are inextricably linked. The creators tried their best to create clothes that complement each other for the characters in the film, and the screen also showed the talents of the designers.

Audrey Hepburn

In the 1920s, the independent clothing department first appeared in the film industry, which promoted the progress of screen aesthetics. Although there are many factors behind the choice of clothing, directors often regard it as an important means to shape characters. In the movie Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Audrey Hepburn, wearing a sleeveless black dress, contributed to the screen classic, and made Givenchy’s little black dress become the yearning of many women. Chanel may be regarded as the founder of the little black dress, but in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Givenchy and Hepburn gave it another vitality.

The interweaving of film and fashion has its inherent inevitability, because both art forms have the inherent power of narration. Alfred Hitchcock, a famous director, is very meticulous about the image of screen actresses. He hopes to project subconscious information in the audience’s mind through clothes and accessories. Hitchcock’s film Stage Fright is the representative work of German actress Marlene Dietrich. She once said, "Without Dior, there No Dior, No Dietrich". The waist suit, tulle robe and feather decoration in the film are very suitable for the female role of the West End singer.

Communication, expression and remolding, it is these characteristics that make clothing an important basis for film production. Movies and performing stars are conducive to the spread of fashion brands, so the red carpet of the film festival has always been a show for major brands. Of course, in addition to the eye-catching red carpet, the film festival is an important platform to show and trace the close relationship between brand and film art. At the 2023 Shanghai International Film Festival, many brands expressed their vision and determination to constantly resonate with the film art.

"DIOR IN RED" exhibition

During the Shanghai International Film Festival from June 11th to 18th, the exhibition "DIOR IN RED" was held in Shanghai Shengli Cinema. This is also the first official appearance after the renovation of Shengli Cinema. Shanghai Shengli Cinema was founded in the last century, bearing the characteristics of China films in different periods and witnessing the development track of the film industry. The architectural style of combining Chinese and Western highlights its openness and tolerance.

"DIOR IN RED" exhibition

Entering the exhibition, elegant and profound red comes into view, and the seven theme exhibition areas tell the story of red love in different times. The portrait of Mr. christian dior in red tone outlined by artist Yan Peiming kicked off the exhibition; DIOR Dior illustrator René Groix has created more than ten paintings for the brand in the past, creating a classic advertising visual image. Then, through the lens of many contemporary photographers, media technology gives fashion a collision with light and shadow. Through a series of video works, Mr. christian dior and many subsequent creative directors of Dior Fashion House, Huan Xin, performed all the red high-order works. A variety of red element collections of accessories, perfumes and beauty cosmetics are also displayed in rare boxes in a patchwork way, connecting a series of stories.

A good film needs a dedicated filmmaker to devote himself to the art of film, concentrate on polishing and pursue it unremittingly, in order to achieve classics. The fashion brand which is connected with the film and embodies the inheritance and innovation is increasingly becoming an indispensable part of the film industry.

PIAGET Earl Shanghai International Film Festival "Extraordinary Night"

As the official partner and designated jewelry brand of the 25th Shanghai International Film Festival, PIAGET and the Shanghai International Film Festival jointly launched a series of activities such as "Extraordinary Master Class" and "Extraordinary Scholarship" in the "Young Filmmakers Education Support Program", paying tribute to the hard-working behind-the-scenes filmmakers, and encouraging young filmmakers to inherit and carry forward their ingenuity and gain momentum for the prosperous development of the film industry.

Pay tribute to the filmmakers. Recently, Jaeger-LeCoultre once again joined hands with the Shanghai International Film Festival to jointly present the "Glory to the Filmmaker Award". The "Jaeger-LeCoultre Filmmaker Honor Award" came to Shanghai International Film Festival for the first time in 2018, aiming at recognizing Chinese filmmakers who have made outstanding contributions to the film industry.

On June 10th, Jaeger-LeCoultre initiated a dialogue on the theme of advanced watchmaking and film restoration, and the guests enjoyed the latest restoration work of Jaeger-LeCoultre’s "Classic Film Copy Restoration Project"-the premiere of the 4K restoration version of Early Spring February (1963) directed by Xie Tieli, a famous third-generation Chinese classic film. This film is adapted from a novella written by the famous writer Rou Shi in the 1920s. At the China Film Century Award in 1995, Early Spring and February won both the Top Ten Film Awards and the Top Ten Director Awards.

Chinese classic film Early Spring in February

The newly restored Chinese classic film Early Spring in February premiered in 4K, conveying the profound significance of film restoration in preserving classics and inheriting culture. The significance of film restoration is not only the work itself, but also to relive the memory of a generation and reproduce the epitome of an era. At present, Jaeger-LeCoultre has made sixteen Chinese films of different ages and types shine again through the "Classic Film Copy Restoration Project".

As an art closely related to the development of science and technology, the history of film development is closely related to the development of science and technology, from silence to sound, from film to digital technology, and then to virtual shooting. Gabrielle Chanel has long realized the powerful power and influence of this new art media in arousing resonance. She once said, "I want to be a part of the future".

"Before becoming a director" special project 2023 series activities

Gabrielle Chanel witnessed the great development of the film industry all her life and kept close contact with it. Chanel’s continuous dialogue with the film industry has also become one of the symbols of the brand. Chanel joined hands with the China Film Directors Association to support the CFDG China Young Film Directors Support Program (Onion Program), and jointly set up a special project of Onion Program "Before Being a Director" in 2022. On June 13th, the two sides jointly held the "Green Night" film sharing and exchange meeting. This activity started the 8th Green Onion Project and released the 2023 series of activities of the special project "Before becoming a director".

The 2023 series of activities is curated by the famous director Frant Gwo, with the theme of "Before becoming a director-the film’s original and future". Through movie master classes, film exhibitions, salons, open classes on campus and other rich forms, it will focus on the presentation of image style and technology, bring about reflections on the film’s ontology and future under the technological revolution, encourage the new generation of filmmakers to emancipate their visual imagination and jointly create a broader picture of film art and technology in the future. Looking back, looking to the future, and expanding the connection between them through various forms and ways, the fate story of fashion and movies will continue.

The "fast fashion" mode causes waste of resources, and the new EU regulations prohibit clothing enterprises from destroying unsold products.

According to a number of foreign media reports from the World Wide Web, in order to crack down on the "fast fashion" mode and reduce the waste of resources, the European Union recently approved new regulations prohibiting large retail enterprises from destroying unsold clothing and footwear.

According to reports, the new regulations not only require enterprises to improve the "durability, reusability, upgradeability and repairability" of their products, but also require garment manufacturers to provide product information through Digital Product Passport. The EU said that enterprises must "take measures to prevent this practice" to make products more durable, facilitate subsequent recycling and reduce resource consumption.

It is reported that the destruction of unsold inventory goods is an open secret of the fashion industry, and the EU hopes to end these unsustainable practices. Alexandra Moreti, a member of the European Parliament, said in a statement: "It is time to end the’ acquisition, manufacturing and disposal’ model, which is very harmful to our planet, our health and our economy." He also said that "banning the destruction of unsold textiles and footwear products will help change the way fast fashion manufacturers produce goods".

Scott Lipinski, CEO of the German Fashion Association and the European Fashion Federation (EFA), said that the EU needs to clarify the meaning of "unsold goods" and "destruction". For the association, unsold goods mean that they are suitable for consumption or sale (excluding fakes and samples). The industry is also firmly committed to opening up new methods, such as remanufacturing and upgrading recycling, which give unsold products a second life and allow creative freedom.

It is reported that the new regulation issued by the European Union will take effect for large enterprises in two years, and medium-sized enterprises can be exempted from the regulation for six years, while smaller enterprises (less than 50 employees) can be exempted. Some data show that the influence of textile consumption on climate change is second only to food, housing and transportation.
