Yu Wei, who won four Oscar statuettes (best actor, best editing, best sound effect and best sound effect editing) in one fell swoop, is based on the film Bohemian Rhapsody, the life story of Queen lead singer Freddie Mercury, which landed in major cinemas in China on March 22nd. Since the film was released in the United States and other places last November, it has won $870 million at the global box office, ranking first in the history of box office music biographies.

At the same time of box office sales, critics did not agree with Bohemian Rhapsody. On the film review website "Rotten Tomato", its favorable rate barely passed the passing line (61%). The film is co-produced by two members of the band, Brian May and Roger Taylor. Although the authenticity of the content is guaranteed, it can also save troubles such as subsequent lawsuits, but it is also inevitably limited and tied. Simran Hans, a film critic of the British Observer, criticized the scripts written by Anthony McCarten (Dark Hour, The Theory of Everything) for being too plain.

In fact, it is always a thankless attempt to shoot biographies of rock musicians, and polarized comments are sparse and common. Although the life experience of rock musicians is often passionate and magnificent, it is an excellent material for movies; However, in view of their high public awareness, there are not a few diehard fans who think they know idols like the back of their hands, so it is inevitable that people are unable to agree. However, the rock biographies that can be recognized by most fans are not unique. For example, the following ten films, the first nine of which are from the "Top30 Best Music Biography in History" selected by Rolling Stone magazine in 2016, and Nicole in 1988 are among the best rock biographies born in recent years. It is worth mentioning that "The Rose" alludes to Janis Joplin’s life, and "Velvet Goldmine" alludes to David Bowie’s contacts with Mick Lan Sen, Iggy Pop and Lou Reed.

The Buddy Holly Story) 1978).

In this film about the late Texas great rock musician buddy holly directed by Steve Rash, Gary Busey, the leading actor, sang Holly’s masterpieces in person, and was well-deserved to be nominated for an Oscar. The rock spirit injected by Busser in the film is quite pure, which is rarely seen in similar works in Hollywood. Fundamentally speaking, the most far-reaching influence of this film lies in its successful re-introduction of Holly’s music to American audiences. In the hottest age of disco, the topic triggered by this film pushed Buddy Holly Lives, a selected record, to the 55th place on Billboard.

Elvis elvis presley (1979)

Since the premature death of Elvis Presley in 1977, many biographies of Elvis Presley have been produced in the film and television industry, but today, this TV movie directed by John Carpenter is still one of the best. Prior to this, Kurt Russell, the leading actor, was mainly known for his role in Disney live-action movies such as The Computer Wore Tennessee Shoes, but he was nominated for an Emmy Award for his wonderful performance as Elvis Presley. He perfectly captured the depth of the superstar in a way that was completely irrelevant to parody. He didn’t really sing in this movie-he was only in charge of lip-synching, and Ronnie McDowell, a country music singer, was in charge of the voice, but his stage performance did highly reproduce the power and shock that Elvis showed when he was on stage. For the darker side of Elvis Presley’s personality, the film has not lightly weakened it; The scene where Russell shot and smashed the hotel TV set is the most unforgettable scene in all Elvis Presley movies.

Sid and Nancy) 1986)

The film records how Sid Vicious, a member of the British rock band Sex Pistol, slipped down the drug abyss step by step until he finally killed his girlfriend and died of an overdose himself. In fact, the relationship between this film and music is not so close. Now, Sid Vicious’s music is not even like punk music, but more like progressive rock’s: look at the slow motion of him and Nancy kissing in the garbage rain next to the trash can, and you will understand that his music is similar to orchestral music compared with the roar that gushes directly from the depths of his throat.

Apart from music, Gary Oldman’s self-destructive personal charm on Sid is so magical that even John Lydon, the lead singer of "Sex Pistol", angrily cursed the director Alex Cox to die after watching the movie, but he was still moved by Odeman’s performance and gave him high praise.

La Bamba) 1987)

With the superb acting skills of Lou Diamond Phillips, who plays Mexican-born rock star Richie Valens, and Esai Morales, who plays his brother Bob, the film Legend of Youth reproduces the ups and downs of the last eight months of 17-year-old Vallans’s life in detail: an ordinary high school student became legendary overnight and soon became a tragic plane crash.

This film not only records his early death, but also touches on the racial conflicts throughout Los Angeles in the late 1950s and the hardships of Hispanics. However, the core of the film is to reiterate Vallans’s enduring influence on pop music: as a result, the film did make Los Lobos’ reinterpretation of Vallans’s classic music reach the top of the record charts.

The Doors) 1991)

When the film was released, the late Roger Ebert, a well-known film critic, complained: "The process of watching this film is like a person who doesn’t drink and is forced to sit in a bar with an annoying drunk." It may be true, but director Oliver Stone has a magnificent sense of movement and absurdity for the commemoration of Jim Morrison, the lead singer of the "Gate" band. The film shows rock and roll to the extreme, and even if it is destroyed, it will be destroyed spectacularly.

Morrison, played by Val Kilmer, is the most wonderful performance in his career. Instead of mythologizing the singer who died young at the age of 27, he represented the hedonism of Los Angeles in the 1960 s by portraying him after being drugged by hormones, alcohol and drugs. His interpretation of Morrison is both like a hero and absurd, full of nonsense and poetic.

As for Morrison, director Si Tong didn’t judge him, but only created a psychedelic voice and a picture of ecstasy. However, the audience who experienced a crazy trip in the film should not want to imitate Morrison’s self-destructive behavior.

Although the soundtrack of "Years of Passion" can’t be said to be a real reproduction of the original sound-those songs were re-interpreted by a super group including Thurston Moore, Dave Grohl, Mike Mills and Greg Dulli, but the anarchic energy they burst out was enough to make up for this shortcoming. The film focuses on The Beatles’ early experience of singing in Hamburg, Germany. At that time, they were still covering other people’s works, which also made it less regrettable not to use the original sound.

This film focuses on the story of idol characters before they become idols, focusing on finding those personality characteristics in them that will make them immortal soon. Ian Hart plays John Lennon, the lead singer of the Beatles, for the second time after The Hours and Times directed by Christopher Münch. His feeling is a little weird, which is not just a simple imitation, but an introduction of thoughts and feelings.

However, the focus of the film is not only on John Lennon. Director Iain Softley wisely focused the spotlight on the forgotten early members of the Beatles, especially the hapless bassist Stuart Sutcliffe played by Stephen Dorff.

The Last Days) 2005)

When Nirvana’s lead singer Kurt Cobain died, he did not forget to tell us that "better to burn out than fade away". However, the doppelganger of Kurt Cobain shown by director Gus Van Sant in "The Last Days" has faded so much that he is almost an invisible man.

In that big empty house in the forest of Washington State, Blake, the hero played by Michael Pitt (Kurt Cobain’s name is not used in this film), walks slowly back and forth, surrounded by a group of parasites who only notice his existence when he reaches out and asks for money or drugs. It seems that he doesn’t look like a person who is about to commit suicide, but more like a walking corpse who has already lost his life-the soul is dead, just waiting for the body to end.

The film imagines a rock star’s suicide path, replaces the explanation with ambiguity, explains everything clearly and tells the whole story so that the audience can feel comfortable, thus launching a challenge. The film itself is as confusing and fragmented as those lyrics written by Kurt Cobain, but there is no cathartic anger in his lyrics at all.

I’m not there (2007)

Bob Dylan can be said to be one of the greatest "chameleons" in the history of rock music. It is not easy to cover his whole life with one movie. Therefore, Todd Haynes, a director who knows the spirit of rock and roll, adopted such an approach. He divided Dylan’s whole life into several parts according to different times and influences, and invited Cate Blanchett, richard gere, Christian Bale, Ben Whishaw and others to interpret every different fragment of Dylan’s rich and colorful life mosaic respectively.

After watching this movie, it will undoubtedly make the audience have no idea about Bob Dylan’s life, but it will make them more curious about him. Instead of adopting the traditional biographical film method of chronological memorabilia, it captures the essence of Dylan at a higher level: for so many years, he constantly reformed himself and rebuilt the whole world. On a certain level, it seems that this film only dabbles in a variety of film styles-imitating the looks and feelings of Ge Daer, A Hard Day’s Night, Eight and a Half, and the American New School Westerns in the 1970s, respectively, but on a deeper level, the film’s wonderful exploration of Dylan himself is as energetic as Dylan himself.

Control) 2007)

Anton Corbijn, a photographer, has been dealing with rock stars for a long time, taking photos for rock musicians with different styles, from U2 to "Depeche Mode" to Tom Waits. Therefore, it’s not surprising that his directorial debut is aimed at rock musicians.

In this biopic of Ian Curtis, the lead singer of Joy Division, the hero played by Sam Riley was a melancholy young man long before he killed himself at the age of 23. However, this drama, which focuses on simplicity, can really make people realize that kind of sadness because it shows the depression that Curtis can’t get rid of all his short life without creating any illusion. In this way, the film avoids the typical route of "from poor to rich and then back to poor" in biographies: Curtis of Riley is not an angry egoist, on the contrary, he is a tortured soul in his heart, and he turns his pain into beautiful music until he is finally swallowed up by it. Like the record of "Happy Team", the film itself has a most direct and diffuse sense of desolation.

Nicole in 1988 (Nico, 1988) 2017

The film focuses on the last year of a woman named Christa P?ffgen (Nicole’s real name), rather than Nicole’s lovely eyes and graceful figure when she is with The Velvet Underground. At the age of 49, she tried to get rid of the label of "Nicole", so she declared: "My life began with leaving underground velvet." She said that she originally wanted to grow old gracefully and calmly, but there were ugly wrinkles on her face and fat on her body. While being trapped by drugs, he is worried about his son who has a tendency to self-destruction; The only constant is that her voice is still hoarse and deep, and she still uses up all her strength when singing. Through this movie, we understand that this woman can never be who she really wants to be throughout her life.

In addition to the excellent atmosphere control of Italian female directors Susanna Nicchiarelli, the interpretation of Danish actress Trine Dyrholm is also the essence of this film: she not only has the right expression and manner, but also has a high degree of restoration when she personally sings Nicole’s masterpieces such as "These Days", "My Heart is Empty" and "Big in Japan".

Tang Zhenyu, one of the singers, was provided by the interviewee.

　　On July 29th, the propaganda song MV "One Mission One Dream" of the 2019 World Police Conference created by Chengdu police was released. This is also the first theme song created by Chengdu police.

　　Thirteen policemen from Chengdu Public Security Bureau spent two months making Chinese and English lyrics and filming MV. Compared with this past police song, which focuses on the grand background, this song can be said to be a "love song" dedicated to police and firefighters all over the world. "Ordinary hero, leaving a determined figure. In different territories, we all carry heavy burdens, day and night, and we fight to the end in order to leave a great body. " Pay tribute to the ordinary heroes around you!

　　Compared with the grand background of the two World Police Games propaganda songs released in the early stage, this video focuses more on the police and firefighters themselves, including the video materials of Chengdu police participating in the World Police Games in previous sessions, as well as the pictures of police and firefighters helping others all over the world.

　　From losing weight to loving running

　　There are a group of dream catchers at the World Police Marathon.

　　On August 8th, the 18th China Chengdu 2019 World Police and Firefighters Games (hereinafter referred to as "World Police Games") was held in Chengdu. On the morning of August 9th, the World Police Half Marathon will take the lead in Dujiangyan. At that time, six contestants from Qingbaijiang Public Security Bureau will compete with many policemen and firefighters from all over the world to start for their dreams!

　　Speaking of Chengdu police who can run marathons best, Deng Yong, a policeman from Qingbaijiang Branch, must be on the list. In August, 2017, Deng Yong won the fourth place in the 10km cross-country race and the sixth place in the half marathon at the 17th World Police Conference held in Los Angeles, USA. The best score of the individual marathon was 2 hours and 43 minutes, which was close to the standard of 2 hours and 34 minutes for a first-class professional marathon athlete.

　　"If there is another way in life, I may become a professional marathon athlete." Deng Yong said that since he joined the police for nine years, he has traveled all over the country’s famous racetracks, and he has left his presence in Chongqing, Xi ‘an and Shanghai.

　　When he first joined the public security work, Deng Yong was assigned to Qingquan Police Station, which is far away from Qingbaijiang City. Since he was a child, he liked long-distance running and stopped physical exercise because of work and life, and his weight suddenly increased from more than 60 kilograms to 85 kilograms. In an incident dealing with school bullying, several youths ran away when they saw the police coming. Deng Yong, who won the long-distance running championship on campus many times, was defeated, and none of them caught up. He secretly made up his mind that he must regain his former style.

　　From then on, Deng Yong practiced running whenever he was free. All the streets, village roads, mountain roads and ridges in Qingquan Town are covered with his running and working footprints. A few months later, Deng Yong’s weight dropped to 60 kilograms, and his running speed came back. Gradually, he found the feeling of being the champion of long-distance running.

　　In recent years, Deng Yong has participated in more than 30 marathons, and won the first place in armed cross-country race and mountaineering in provincial and municipal police and firemen’s games. Today, Deng Yong is one of the best police officers in Chengdu, and he has also led a large number of colleagues to join the long-distance running team. He said: "Long-distance running can not only exercise physical fitness, but also find unique happiness from it."

　　Speaking of the goal of this year’s World Police Games, Deng Yong bluntly said that there is no goal, and running on the track is success.

　　Wang Xinhua, a policeman of the patrol brigade of Qingbaijiang Branch, also participated in the World Police Marathon, and his running course also started from "losing weight". At the beginning of running, Wang Xinhua could only stick to 5 kilometers at a time, and the speed was also very slow. After a month, you can run 10 kilometers, not only the speed is improved, but also the weight is reduced by 5 kg. This gave him great confidence, and slowly, from losing weight at first to falling in love with running later, running gradually became a part of his life.

　　"It is an honor to participate in a world-class competition at home. Fortunately, this honor has come to me." Wang Xinhua said, "I hope to break through myself on the track of half marathon. Men who run are generally not too bad luck!"

Special feature of 1905 film network　Compared with the domestic animated film Nezha, which has won nearly 1 billion box office in just a few days, the new version of The Lion King, which was adapted from Disney animation, is somewhat "acclimatized". Up to now, the box office in the Mainland has just exceeded 800 million. No one’s all-CG "real lion version" adaptation form also appeared on the big screen for the first time, which caused a lot of controversy.

Netizen’s homemade "Lion King" animation style Xiao Simba

Audiences who are familiar with Disney will be familiar with the "live-action version" of animated films. There are princess series such as Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Curse, etc., which have captured the hearts of many young girls, and later include Dumbo, Aladdin and Fantasy Forest. The live-action version of Mulan, starring China movie star Liu Yifei, has been occupying the hot search list for many days.

What many people don’t know, however, is that the source of Disney’s animated adaptation of live-action movies should be traced back to jungle book in 1994, and Fantasy Forest, which was released in 16 years, was also adapted from the The Jungle Book. The hero of the film is also a Chinese movie star — — Jason Scott Lee.

A real person, lion, wolf, elephant and monkey version of jungle book.

It’s just that the movie didn’t cause much response after it was released. Disney didn’t arrange such a huge animation adaptation plan for live-action movies until Alice in Wonderland and Sleeping Curse made a good box office.

Disney live-action adaptation movie box office list

Animation adaptation of real-life film and television works has always been a way of film and television production. Excellent original paintings have accumulated audiences and word of mouth, but it is not easy to break through the limitations of comics and gain more audiences. For example, the word-of-mouth and box office of The Lion King have formed a huge gap, which is not conducive to the subsequent expansion of the Lion King IP.

In China, there are also a large number of film and television works adapted from live-action versions, among which there are many excellent classics and wonderful works.

Let Xiao Dianjun take you to find out.

Anime adaptation of the live-action movie China existed 70 years ago.

As early as 1948, we had already made a cartoon adaptation of a live-action movie — — San Mao, played by Wang Longji, is also the first real-life cartoon image on the screen in China. Zhang Leping created Sanmao in 1935. He is thin and short, with only three hairs on his head. He can only make a living by selling newspapers, polishing shoes and being an apprentice, but he still struggles hard with life. He can be said to be the epitome of suffering children in the old society.

The comic book "San Mao Joining the Army" was published in Shanghai Shenbao in 1946, which was a sensation. Another masterpiece, The Wandering of Sanmao, was serialized in Ta Kung Pao the following year. Sanmao written by Zhang Leping aroused strong social repercussions because it reflected profound social contradictions. In those days, life was hard, and people needed people with the spirit of "Xiaoqiang" like San Mao.

In 1948, the film "San Mao Wandering"

In 1948, Sanmao first went from comic books to the big screen. Of course, the film experienced many twists and turns from production to release, including stopping shooting, hiding in the snow and continuing shooting, and finally was released in December 1949. On the eve of founding ceremony, as the first step of the official release of the new China, the film "San Mao’s Wandering Tale" was first released in Shanghai Daguangming, Maggie and other theaters. During the two months of continuous screening in Shanghai, it was full.

In the 1980s, this film also participated in a series of European exhibitions, and caused a sensation at Cannes Film Festival. It was shown in six cinemas in Paris for 60 days, followed by another month. At this year’s Shanghai International Film Festival, a 4k restored version of San Mao’s Wandering Story also appeared in the screening unit.

According to statistics, there are more than 50 kinds of comic books about Sanmao’s image, and the cumulative printing quantity exceeds 10 million copies. On the basis of the adaptation of the original comics and movies, a series of film and television dramas about Sanmao have emerged. It was adapted into a movie twice in 1958 and 1980, a TV series twice in 1996 and 1999, and an animation by CCTV in 2006.

The reason why Sanmao can become a national classic children’s figure is closely related to the time when he was created and the lack of people’s entertainment resources, so the derived adaptation works can last for nearly 60 years.

These wonderful adaptation forms may be unheard of by you.

The big move of Disney animation adaptation film is to restart the classic IP and harvest a new wave of young audiences. Although according to the box office of The Lion King and Aladdin, Disney has achieved its goal, but this new wine in a bottle is also a double-edged sword, and Disney’s creativity may disappear with the adaptation.

The technology of real people +CGI can make the scenes in animation vivid, but many years ago, the imaginative space that animation could give the audience was stifled by the "animal telling people" that was too realistic and inconsistent.

If cartoons and animations are well received and widely spread before adaptation, it will be difficult for the live-action version to surpass the original. The preconceived idea will make the audience unconsciously compare the real person with the cartoon character, and once the deviation of the real person’s casting is too large, the reputation of the whole work may collapse.

Live-action version of Big Head Son and Little Head Dad

In 2018, Ying Da made the national animation "Big Head Son and Little Head Dad" into a sitcom. Although the animation series also launched a restart version of the drama series and 3D movies before, the images of big head son and little head dad also maintained a consistent "animation style".

This sitcom uses live actors instead of special effects, which will inevitably lead to the "smaller head" of the big-headed son, and the little-headed father played by Chen Chuang has nothing to lose, so this drama has no interest.

Little head dad, big head son and apron mom are three.

Just like the big-headed son doesn’t have a "big head", the apron mother just wears an apron. This way, there is no way to fool the original audience of comics.

Since the use of real-life realism has been criticized, the original image has lost its charm, so how do these "surreal" images behave?

Old Master Q shows off his skills.

Old Master Q, a Hong Kong cartoon, has been adapted into a real movie for many years, and the most influential one is The Professor 2001 directed by Qiu Litao and produced by Tsui Hark. The film adopts a combination of real people and animation, using CG technology to make Old Master Q, sweet potato and "Feng Zhi" group contract stage drag show.

The form of using real people to play real people and using special effects to make "dummies" really brought a refreshing feeling to the audience in that year, and finally gained a box office score of 18.36 million Hong Kong dollars, ranking among the top ten in Hong Kong box office in 2001. It has also achieved a leap in Hong Kong’s film special effects technology.

Old Master Q, sweet potato and Cecilia Cheung.

The adaptation of the following films is even more "nonsense" — — The switch of honey juice between human pig and Jin Roh: The Wolf Brigade also puzzled the audience.

"Springfield Flower Reunion" BiBi Zhou plays McDull when he grows up.

In 2006, the popular McDull series was remake into a live-action movie "Springfield Flower Reunion". BiBi Zhou, who has just made her debut as a "super girl", plays a girl who forgets her childhood heart and finally realizes that she was a pig when she was a child after being tortured by robbers.

The film takes the form of two-dimensional animation and a brand-new original story of real people, forcibly treating the animation part as a fragment of memories. In the end, the film did not gain traffic and word of mouth because of the blessing of a number of Hong Kong and Taiwan stars, and was even regarded as a failure of the McDull series.

The lazy sheep and the gray taro couple crossed

The adaptation form of real people’s happiness and big Wolf movies is even more surprising — — This time, Big Wolf and Pleasant Goat crossed into the real world to rescue Little Grey, and turned into human beings.

Wang Xun becomes a big wolf.

Although Wang Xun’s acting skills can fully support the role of Big Wolf, it is still difficult to connect the real person with the wolf without acting. Wang Xun dyed a yellow hair and combed his hair back in order to be close to Big Big Wolf in color matching, but his trademark rabbit teeth can’t really show the sinister wolf nature.

Whether McDull, Pleasant Goat or Big Big Wolf, the original cartoons are all positioned in children, so the adapted film and television works are also geared to younger audiences.

However, in contrast to Disney’s "live version" films, the original animation also tells fairy tales, but after being adapted from reality, it attracts audiences of all ages to enter the cinema.

　In recent years, with the gradual maturity of China’s film market, the animation-adapted live-action films are gradually getting rid of the style of being young and young, and the audience has turned from children and teenagers to the adult market, and many excellent quality works have emerged, "Fuck off! Tumor jun, Get My Brother Away, Animal World and other films can achieve a double harvest in word-of-mouth box office. Apart from the star joining, they also benefit from the adaptation of the story.

"Black Cat Sheriff" animation film

In 2015, it was reported that Lu Chuan was going to direct a live-action version of Sheriff Black Cat.

Now nearly five years have passed, and there is no progress in the film. We may expect that China can also make a "real cat version" of Sheriff Black Cat in the future.

On March 21st, the spot price of gold in London hit a record high of $2,222.91 per ounce. Since the beginning of this year, the international gold price has been rising, but the high price seems to be unable to stop consumers’ enthusiasm for buying, and it has also ignited the gold accumulation business, which has a tendency of "the higher the price, the more I buy". So, is gold still suitable for buying at this stage?

To answer this question, we must first understand the reasons for this round of high international gold prices. Externally, factors such as the intensification of geopolitical conflicts and the continuous "gold buying fever" of many central banks have provided support for the rise in gold prices, but the core reason is the increase in the market’s expectation of the Fed’s interest rate cut.

In the international market, gold is denominated in dollars, so the direction of the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy has always been an important factor affecting the price of gold. Generally speaking, there is a "seesaw" relationship between the gold price and the dollar trend, that is, when the Fed raises interest rates to make the dollar strong, the gold price falls; Conversely, when the Federal Reserve cut interest rates and made the dollar weak, the price of gold rose. Since last year, against the background of falling inflation data in the United States, the Federal Reserve raised interest rates for the last time in July last year, and the market had already expected the shift of monetary policy. In addition, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell has publicly stated many times this year that it is expected to cut interest rates during the year, and the market’s expectation for the Fed to cut interest rates has further increased, which has continuously pushed up the price of gold.

It should be noted that expectations are only expectations after all. On March 20, local time in the United States, the Federal Reserve announced that it would keep the target range of the federal funds rate unchanged at 5.25% to 5.5%, and said that it was "inappropriate" to lower the target range of the federal funds rate until it had greater confidence in the inflation rate’s long-term goal of 2%. In the eyes of the industry, the Fed’s wavering attitude and this year’s US presidential election will bring more uncertainty to the market.

In the face of uncertain factors, whether to "get on the bus" or not, investors should act cautiously on the one hand, and look at the specific needs on the other. Gold has both monetary and commodity attributes. If there is consumer demand, especially for physical gold at weddings, Chinese New Year and other nodes, then buy it. After all, gold has many beautiful meanings in China, such as "love is stronger than gold" and "good fortune", which has become a consumer’s just need to some extent. At the same time, the weight of jewelry gold is relatively light, so consumers only need to live within their means, and do not have to worry too much about the time of purchase, so they can buy their favorite styles.

From the investment point of view, the more noisy the market is, the more investors need to think calmly. As a traditional safe-haven asset, the greatest value of gold lies in its anchoring value, which can be used as a part of its own diversified asset allocation to realize the dispersion of risks. It is obviously unreasonable and unrealistic to regard gold as the target that can make the value of assets grow rapidly. When dealing with gold investment, investors should accumulate a certain gold knowledge reserve, pay more attention to the macro-index changes that have an impact on the gold market, and form their own judgment logic for the future price trend. It is also necessary to understand the characteristics and risks of financial products such as physical gold, gold accumulation business and gold ETF, and determine the investment mode and allocation ratio of gold in the portfolio according to its own risk tolerance and investment objectives, and do not blindly pursue high investment.

Editor’s note: As a friend of the post-80s generation, Qian Zhenzhen often has such confusion: Why does my girlfriend/wife always let me choose between the game and her? Faced with such confusion, Qian Truth showed them the way: Why not open an Internet cafe together?

As a post-80s generation, Qian Zhen witnessed the earliest "little black room" LAN bar (the cost is 1-2 yuan/hour, and the game is mainly StarCraft), and after 2000, the smoky Internet cafes (the cost is 4-6 yuan/hour, and the game is mainly Warcraft, CS), and now the Internet cafes (the cost is 10 yuan/hour, and the game is mainly Dota2).

Unfortunately, just as Qian Zhen’s friends were gearing up to prepare for the Internet cafe, Wangyu Internet Cafe got 210 million yuan in financing in 2017, and now even Jay Chou has rushed into this market and opened a "most luxurious Internet Cafe in history".

Who will grasp the social feelings of boys born after 1980s in the future? Let’s take a look at the dialogue between "Three Sounds" and net fish, and the market conception of net fish for internet cafes.

The following content comes from WeChat WeChat official account: Sansheng (WeChat WeChat official account ID: tosansheng), the original title "Rebirth of Internet Cafe: This is a story about consumption upgrading and scene redefinition.",author: Wang Xueqi.

"There are 140,000 Internet cafes now, and it will probably be less than half by the beginning of next year, and we are waiting for the downturn of the industry," said Peng Cong, head of the brand department of Netfish Internet Cafe Market, when asked by Sansheng how to use the 210 million D round of financing just obtained at the beginning of this year.

Net Fish Internet Cafe is the first heavy investment in the entertainment capital market in 2017. On January 26th, Wangyu Internet Cafe announced that the company had completed 210 million RMB Series D financing, and the investors were Dachen Venture Capital, Yicun Capital and Mingjia Capital. Previously, Wangyu Internet Cafe has completed three rounds of financing, and the investors include Lianzhong Games and Shunwang Technology. In September 2015, Netfish also received tens of millions of RMB Series B financing from Wang Sicong Pusi Capital.

In fact, the meaning boundary of Internet cafe has been rapidly enlarged. Searching for "Internet cafes" in the map has nearly 500 search results in Beijing alone, and many traditional Internet cafes that were once "messy" are also trying to make a comeback after a makeover.

However, this is not just a simple story about Xiao Fang, a country girl, who changed her name to Miss Dong after she entered the city. Behind the resurrection of Internet cafes and the rise of Internet cafes, hundreds of billions of game industries and more than 50 billion e-sports industries are making efforts to support it. At the same time, it is also the upgrade of offline social needs of a new generation of young consumers and the redefinition of certain Internet scenes.

Although e-sports and socialization have enabled Internet cafes to find their core competitiveness in the new era, which has attracted a large influx of capital, the current growth of consumer groups seems to be insufficient to carry the influx of Internet cafes.

As a result, the pioneers of the Internet cafe industry have invested in brand building and marketing promotion after earning the first bucket of gold. This revived traditional industry is attracting new players, but the old players have sharpened their swords and prepared for a big fight.

Starbucks is the goddess of inspiration for Internet cafes.

The bar in the Internet cafe looks more like a cafe.

Walking into the storefront of Netfish Internet Cafe near Beijing Workers’ Stadium, the spacious foyer makes it look like a large KTV at its peak many years ago, while the bar at the end of the foyer is more like a cafe, and the menu is also a standard cafe configuration. In addition to coffee juice, there is also a simple meal of pasta and rice. On the glass counter, even a certain brand of seaweed jar was carefully displayed.

Probably this snack is being promoted recently, and Net Fish Internet Cafe has also specially launched a package of seaweed and milk, which allows you to surf the Internet for free at a specified time after purchase.

The computer area of Wangyu Internet Cafe is also very different from the traditional Internet Cafe, which adopts a circular layout similar to a ladder classroom and puts all-in-one Apple machines. Apart from the cries of "Don’t bid farewell" (note: warning teammates not to die) and excited shouts from time to time from the private room, there are few people in the lobby on weekdays. The clerk wearing a white shirt printed with the net fish logo stops to watch the game from time to time and often exchanges some experiences with consumers.

The earliest Internet cafes in China appeared in about 1995 and began to develop rapidly around 2000. In that careless era, Internet cafes were not a safe place for parents, and there were a large number of black Internet cafes that lacked business qualifications. After the 2002 Blue Speed Internet Cafe fire and the 2003 SARS, the government began to tighten the supervision and licensing policy for Internet cafes.

At the same time of policy tightening, the popularity of personal computers and smart phones has also quickly separated the popularity and traffic of Internet cafes. Once they have a free choice, it is becoming more and more difficult for young people to accept the dirty and chaotic Internet cafes that are shrouded in smoke. Several executives of Internet cafes told Sansheng that the Internet cafe industry in China began to enter a trough in 2010, and 2012 was probably the lowest ebb.

Faced with the overall decline and near elimination of the industry, some internet cafes in it began to actively seek new ways out. In this process, the global coffee chain brand "Starbucks" unexpectedly became the common goddess of inspiration.

Xu Hua from the brand department of Jiela Internet Cafe said in an interview with Sansheng that Jiela’s earliest attempt at Internet Cafe originated from a Starbucks consumption by her boss. Starbucks was very popular in 2010, and the boss felt that we could do the same as Starbucks and be a little more elegant. In 2005, Net Fish Internet Cafe was inspired by Starbucks when it tried to improve the environment of Internet cafes and added new leisure elements, because the latter "has access to the Internet, is quite comfortable, and has food and drink".

Compared with the pioneers of the transformation of Internet cafes such as Gera and Netfish, Bidou Internet Cafe, which rose in Guangzhou, started from another road. Fan Lihan, one of its founders, told Sansheng that Bidou first started from restaurants targeting college students and developed cultural and creative products. The purpose was to get involved in the campus market from different angles, turn himself into a university traffic portal company, and then realize the traffic through cooperation with other brands.

However, the restaurant belonging to "diligent" is unstable in profit and complicated in management. As a result, in 2016, they turned their attention to the "lazy" Internet cafe that has been in full swing. Fan Lihan likes to compare the Internet cafe industry to a parking lot. "As long as we solve the problems of qualification and location, we can get very stable profits and low management costs."

The current mode of Bidou Internet Cafe is to directly purchase Internet cafes that have been in business for many years through capital operation, and then upgrade and transform them into Internet cafes. In this respect, Bidou has certain innate advantages. Guangzhou did not have a large-scale chain Internet cafe before, which also means that Bidou does not need to face the experienced and powerful old landlords in this market.

Gera in Hangzhou, Wangyu in Shanghai, Bidou in Guangzhou, old players and newcomers in the Internet cafe industry are actively capturing different hills of Internet cafes in their own different ways.

E-sports is the specific medicine for the revival of Internet cafes.

"Coffee" is the source of inspiration for the return of the transformation of Internet cafes, and the shot in the arm for the real survival of Internet cafes is e-sports. For young game users, e-sports is not only more competitive in content and feeling, but more importantly, this new competitive event, which emphasizes teamwork and interaction, has fundamentally changed the offline social function and consumption scene of Internet cafes.

E-sports was officially recognized as a sport by the State Sports Commission in 2003. Although it also produced a number of star players, the limited number of competitions and immature business models have not attracted real capital favor for the e-sports industry.

After the game industry has reached a considerable scale, the e-sports industry began to take off. According to the data of the Game Working Committee of China Music and Digital Association, the market size of e-sports industry was 22.63 billion yuan in 2014, and it has more than doubled to 50.46 billion yuan two years later. Several operators of Internet cafes said that with the entry of Wang Sicong, Tencent and other capitals, e-sports began to become the development trend of the industry in 2012 and became a capital hotspot in 2015.

Another important change also occurred around 2014, and the state began to take more active encouragement to the e-sports industry. Xu Hua told us that Gera began to lay out e-sports based on the suggestion made by the Vice Minister of Culture when he visited in 2013.

Internet cafes are the direct beneficiaries of the booming e-sports industry. It is e-sports that makes people brought home by personal computers and smart phones go out of their homes again. For ordinary players, although e-sports competition is not a daily standard, "team competition" is a basic demand.

According to "Three Sounds", consumers around the age of 30 are the main force of opening black rooms (note: opening black rooms and playing games in Internet cafes). They have enough spending power and are more eager for offline social interaction.

Peng Cong said that the emergence of two phenomenal games, Dota2 and League of Legends, was an important turning point in the revival of Internet cafes. Although before them, there were also hot games in Internet cafes like Legend and Warcraft, the direct antagonism of Dota2 and League of Legends and the need to form a team are stronger, which can arouse people’s interest in playing in Internet cafes.

Compared with other e-sports events, "Dota2" and "League of Legends" offer higher individual event prizes, and the champion prize of "Dota2" even exceeds that of Wimbledon. With such a big prize, it will naturally attract more professional players to participate in the competition, and the hot atmosphere of the professional arena will eventually infect ordinary players.

E-sports has brought transformation opportunities and new growth points to Internet cafes, but it has also brought covetous competitors. More and more hot money has begun to pour into the Internet cafe industry-the country of hardware manufacturers and players has started to make Internet cafes, and Gome built its own Internet cafe brand Xiaomei Internet Cafe at the end of 2016. Former members of E-sports team WE have opened Internet cafes, and even the famous singer Jay Chou has joined the Internet cafe battle.

In 2014, the Ministry of Culture, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly issued No.41 and No.42 documents to improve the management policies of Internet cafes and promote the transformation and upgrading of Internet cafes, which lowered the threshold for opening Internet cafes, and the model of Internet cafes was easy to copy from the perspective of space design and equipment. Xu Hua said that the homogenization competition between Internet cafes is very serious.

Peng Cong also said that since the second half of 2016, the Internet cafe industry has entered a new round of survival of the fittest. A large number of Internet cafes that follow the trend obviously lack the ability to cope with fierce competition. Many Internet cafes can only attract customers through hand-to-hand combat methods such as price reduction and large-sum rush.

In his view, the market capacity of the Internet cafe industry is relatively limited. Although the number of e-sports users in China increased slightly in 2016, reaching about 130 million, Internet cafe consumers only accounted for a small part of it. In contrast, the supply of all kinds of Internet cafes blooming all over the sky was also in excess of demand. What’s important is that the two Internet cafe engines, Dota2 and League of Legends, have also begun to enter a period of exhaustion. "The market needs new games, and we are also waiting for the next end tour of Dota2 and League of Legends."

Under the realistic market situation, Internet cafe brands that already own the hills have begun to prepare more ammunition and put it into the next round of elimination war.

"What do Internet cafes do for promotion? Can they afford it?"

This is a question raised by Peng Cong, a native of 4A Company, when he first met with Huang Feng, the owner of Netfish Internet Cafe.

For Internet cafes before the transformation, marketing and brand are still two very distant words. At that time, as long as we had a good position, a computer that was not too bad, and more tolerance for minors’ fake ID cards, the business of Internet cafes would soon get better.

However, when the black Internet cafe model lost its stable audience and the Internet cafe model fell into fierce competition, marketing and brand became one of the key factors to win in the new stage.

In the storefront of Netfish Internet Cafe, in addition to the large portrait of the spokesperson Angelababy, there is also the ubiquitous brand logo cartoon killer whale. Gera Internet Cafe invited Miss, the queen of e-sports, to speak for herself, and also cooperated with Running Man by providing venues. In contrast, Bidou Internet Cafe, whose start-up team is good at marketing, continues the cultural and creative genes and designs its own brand image.

In addition to VI (corporate visual design), internet cafes have also made great efforts in the interior design of their stores. The style design of each store of Netfish is different. Compared with the bright wind of Netfish Internet Cafe, Fengdie Internet Cafe, another brand of its Internet Cafe, has many female users because of its warmer overall color and more casual decoration style. Bidou Internet Cafe, which aims at college students, hopes that the storefront image will be more positive and sunny, so it adopts a yellow-green tone.

In addition to the establishment of brand image at the visual level, holding e-sports competitions and actively seeking cross-border cooperation are also the focus of Internet cafe marketing. Bidou Internet Cafe held the Guangzhou University E-sports Goddess Challenge, which turned "watching girls play games" into a marketing event with great communication value. Gera and Netfish will also hold daily competitions in the store.

According to Peng Cong, when Netfish Internet Cafe holds a national e-sports competition, there will be 33 teams in just one store.

Net Fish Internet Cafe is spending more of the money it has melted on linkage with other brands, so as to establish its own differentiation and recognition. Some time ago, Banana Plan held the BIG Carnival in Shanghai, and the net fish Internet cafe also participated in it, and set up its own e-sports stage.

At the same time, the net fish also began to pay more attention to investors’ resources other than money. For example, the acceptance of Mingjia Capital in the D round of financing was due to the influence of the boss Huang Xiaoming, which brought many star resources to the net fish.

In this marketing campaign, the old Internet cafes rely on strong economic strength, industry contacts and local resources, while the new generation of Internet cafes rely more on their own sense of smell and experience in marketing and the dividends that those who join the battlefield later have.

When it comes to how to get out of the Red Sea of Internet cafes, the three Internet cafes seem to have their own strategies. In Xu Hua’s view, as long as the game industry is still popular, the Internet cafe industry will definitely continue to survive. With the cooperation resources of big game manufacturers, such as the activation-free demo of some games and the privilege of all heroes and all skins, old-fashioned Internet cafes can still attract many players and franchisees. For Gera, the next upgrade will focus on the intelligent management of Internet cafes and the improvement of operation and marketing capabilities.

In Peng Cong’s eyes, the user-oriented concept and integrated management system are the unshakable core competitiveness of net fish. "Equipment can be copied, lots can be replaced, but services cannot." The integrated system ensures that net fish users can be used nationwide after handling the card, which enhances the user’s viscosity. The future planning of net fish still revolves around the game. "What we do is not an Internet cafe, but a multiplayer game space."

For Fan Lihan, on the road of branding, the Internet cafe industry in Guangzhou has just started, and it is better to stand firm in South China than to plan for the future. "There are hundreds of thousands of Internet cafes in China. In terms of market share, no Internet cafe enterprise has really started to run. They run in the Yangtze River Delta and I run in the Pearl River Delta."

A long time ago, Internet cafes carried the need for people to communicate with the outside world. There were brothers from game guilds, unspeakable videos and websites, and chat room users who had never met before. After personal computers and smart phones have changed people’s communication patterns, some people are willing to return to the more or less real world of Internet cafes.

Fan Lihan’s vision for the future of Internet cafes is a pan-entertainment space that can be consumed by pass. "Buy a ticket, want to play games with a high-profile computer, want to sing with KTV, and want to play billiards with a pool table."

The above is the article of "Three Sounds".

After reading it, Qian Zhen felt the same way about the following sentence:

Consumer groups around the age of 30 are the main force in opening black rooms (note: opening black rooms and playing games in Internet cafes). They have enough spending power and are more eager for offline social interaction.

And what will be the future format of internet cafes?

I don’t know how you feel after reading the picture below.

◆ Beijing kitchen

The main Cantonese cuisine is called "Beijing Kitchen", and Michelin judges think that this naming method is "hoping to increase intimacy", so that guests can enjoy the food as happily as they go home. An experienced chef and boss from Hong Kong adds seasonal and innovative dishes from time to time on the basis of traditional Cantonese cuisine and Hong Kong dim sum. Michelin suggested that you don’t miss the stew and roast. Among them, the young pigeon emperor chose a 30-day-old young pigeon, which was made of three layers of epithelium, and its skin was fragrant and crisp, which was particularly excellent. Finally, you can also use the secret poplar nectar here as a sweet "full stop" for a meal.

◆ Sanqingtan

In Beijing, which is famous for its roast duck, Sanqingtan has a good reputation for its signature dish-roasted goose, as well as fragrant honey foie gras, stewed goose head and wings. Guangdong black brown geese are selected here, each weighing 7.2-7.6 kg, and are regularly airlifted to Beijing to keep the freshness and taste of the geese. Diners are free to choose the fat, thin and parts of the roast goose, but due to the limited quantity, Michelin recommends that diners make reservations. In addition to roast goose, the stew soup that needs to be reserved is also excellent. Other classic Cantonese dishes, dim sum and clay pot dishes are recommended to try.

◆ KEAAMI

KEAAMI, who was selected for bibendum, was controversial because it entered the Beijing list as a Thai dish, together with Beijing delicacies such as bean juice and braised pork, but in itself, it is a very good Thai restaurant. The name of the restaurant is based on Shenmu Island, a Thai island. The interior decoration and tableware are also colorful, creating a dreamy scenery in Southeast Asia. Michelin recommended that you can try the experienced Thai chef’s "Six-course Royal Flower Banquet for the Royal Family of Thailand". In addition, we also recommend the pungent Dongyingong seafood soup and green curry chicken, as well as the fragrant and smooth golden cat mountain Tiramisu.

Search engines make it easy for us to find information on the internet. As long as we enter keywords, links related to them will appear. Of course, the next thing will be more troublesome. You need to browse through multiple links to find the one you want.

In order to improve the search efficiency, someone has made an aggregate search tool, Mr.Otter, whose function is to allow you to search directionally in some websites and find the information you want faster. How exactly is it achieved? Let Geekchoice (WeChat: GeekChoice) introduce it to you.

See the download address at the end of the article.

There are many vertical websites in Mr.Otter, which are aggregated according to categories, including image search, news information, e-commerce shopping … When you need to search for something, you don’t need to browse one by one from the search results, but directly enter keywords and select the website classification.

Take wireless headphones as an example. Enter "wireless headphones" in the search box, and when you switch to "information-technology", you can view the evaluation of technology media. When switching to "consumption-domestic", you can check the price in the e-commerce website; Switch to "Picture-Photo" to view the photos of the wireless headset.

This is equivalent to a targeted search in a certain type of website, as long as you enter the keyword once and then switch the source of the result. Websites in Mr.Otter can be added and classified by custom. You need to enter the name and address of the website, and the writing method of the inquiry address should be filled in as prompted.

With the custom function, you can create your own aggregate search tool. When we searched for something before, we mainly browsed several fixed websites. In order to save trouble, we collected these commonly used websites as bookmarks at most, but we still need to fill them in one by one when searching. Mr.Otter makes it easy, and it goes deep into every vertical website, allowing you to go directly with one click.

With so many websites, sometimes you may not be able to read them. You can save the articles you want to read first and click "Read them later".

To meet the needs of image search, Mr.Otter also made an "atlas mode", which will display the images of the current website after clicking the switch. There is a certain screening mechanism, and pictures that are too small and unclear will not be displayed. When you encounter pictures that look good, you can right-click to collect them, and Mr.Otter will automatically save them to a local location.

By the way, Mr.Otter also supports selecting text collection by "right-clicking-collecting text".

There are many intimate details in Mr.Otter, such as keeping recent historical keywords in the search box, and prompting "refer to English" when inputting Chinese, which is convenient for searching in foreign websites.

In a word, the purpose of Mr.Otter is to make your search more efficient. At present, there are not many functions of the software, and some places need to be supplemented. For example, the collection can’t be classified, and the gesture of sliding left and right can’t be used in the webpage. I hope I can add it later. If you are tired of opening several same websites in search results at a time, it is better to aggregate them with Mr.Otter, with one click.
