Inside story of Israel’s support for Syrian rebels: providing weapons costs $75 per person per month.

  Reference message networkReported on September 14th.According to the bimonthly website of Foreign Policy of the United States reported on September 6, more than 20 commanders and ordinary members of at least 12 anti-government armed groups in southern Syria said that Israel has secretly armed and funded these organizations in recent years to prevent the extremist organization "Islamic State" militants from occupying positions near the Israeli border.

  According to reports, the military equipment transferred by Israel in July this year included assault rifles, machine guns, mortar launchers and transport vehicles. The Israeli security services transported these weapons through three passes connecting the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights with Syria. Israel also uses these checkpoints to deliver humanitarian aid to the residents of southern Syria who have suffered from years of civil war.

  The picture shows the Israeli armored forces deployed in the Golan Heights.

  Syrian rebels and local media said that Israel also paid salaries to rebels (about $75 per person per month) and provided additional funds. The rebels used the money to buy weapons on the Syrian black market.

  These payments and the services received by Israel in return have caused the militants to expect that if the troops loyal to the Syrian government try to advance into southern Syria, Israel will intervene.

  This summer, when the Syrian government forces supported by Russian air power did so, Israel did not intervene, making the rebels feel betrayed.

  Y, a member of the Knights of the Golan, said: "This is a lesson we will never forget about Israel. It doesn’t care about … … These people. It doesn’t care about humans. It only cares about its own interests. "

  According to reports, Israel tried to keep its relations with these organizations secret.

  According to the report, compared with the amount of weapons and funds provided by Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and the United States and other countries involved in this seven-year civil war, the amount provided by Israel is small. Even when Israel’s aid program peaked earlier this year, rebel commanders complained that the aid was not enough.

  However, Israel’s assistance is important for several reasons. This marks another way for Israel to try to prevent Iran from consolidating its position in Syria. Israel also launched air strikes against Iranian military bases in Syria and exerted political pressure through Russia.

  Israel’s aid also raises questions about the balance of power in Syria when the civil war finally subsided. There is a great possibility that Syria will become a flashpoint of conflict between Israel and Iran when the Iranian army, which helped the Syrian government defeat the rebels, has no intention of withdrawing its troops from Syria.

  According to the report, a spokesman for the Israeli Embassy in Washington declined to comment on this article.

  The picture shows an Israeli tank on standby in the Syrian-Israeli border area.

  According to reports, since 2013, Israel has provided weapons to anti-government armed groups allied with the Syrian Free Army, including some armed factions operating in Quneitra, Deraa and rural areas in southern Damascus. The weapons transferred at that time were mainly M16 assault rifles made in the United States. Later, most of the weapons provided by Israel to the militants were not American weapons (apparently to cover up the sources of aid), including some guns and ammunition confiscated by Israel in 2009 and transported from Iran to Hezbollah in Lebanon.

  Aid to these organizations remained stable for some time, but it increased significantly last year. Israel has gone from supporting hundreds of fighters to helping anti-government organizations with thousands of members. The increase in aid coincides with a broader change in Israel’s policy toward Syria. After appealing to the United States and Russia, but failing to reach an agreement to allow Iranian-backed militia groups to leave southern Syria, Israel adopted a more aggressive policy. Its air force began to strike deeper into Syria, not only against individual batches of weapons shipped from Iran to Hezbollah, but also against bases all over Iran.

  According to the report, two Israeli-backed organizations have been publicly confirmed, including the "Knights of the Golan" organization based in Tahaisheb, the border town of Quneitra, and the "Omar bin khattab" brigade based in Beit Kin, a town near Mount Hermon.

  Unlike other foreign forces that support the Syrian opposition, Israel has made little effort to organize and consolidate its aid program. On the contrary, it obviously relies on the relationship established with individual commanders and provides them with assistance directly.

  The picture shows the wreckage of an Iranian drone shot down by the Israeli army.

  Anti-government militants in southern Syria say these commanders will contact Israeli officials by telephone and occasionally meet them in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights. When these commanders change organizations and locations, Israel’s aid will change accordingly. On the other hand, when these commanders are killed or ousted because of internal power struggles, Israel will stop providing assistance to their former factions.

  Knights of the Golan is a favorite organization of Israel. Members of the faction said that the organization added hundreds of fighters last year because of increased Israeli funding. It also distributes weapons provided by Israel to other organizations. This makes the organization have great influence in Quneitra and nearby Dar ‘a province.

  Israel has also provided fire support to armed groups fighting against local branches of the Islamic State in the Yarmouk Basin. Local armed groups, media reporters and residents said that when the "Islamic State" organization was fighting other anti-government armed forces, the Israeli army launched a drone attack on the commander of the organization and launched a precision missile strike on the personnel, fortifications and vehicles of the organization. When the rebels launched an attack on the Syrian government forces, Israel did not provide similar fire support.

  The report commented that due to Israel’s humanitarian and military assistance, many residents in southern Syria gradually regarded it as an ally. Israel promotes its "good neighbor" plan in Arabic, including humanitarian operations in southern Syria and the treatment of some Syrian people in Israeli hospitals.

  A few months ago, Y, a militant of the "Knights of the Golan" organization, said: "Israel is the only country that has interests, a little humanity and provides assistance to civilians in the region."

  However, as that Syrian government force regained control of more and more Syrian territory with the help of Russian and Iranian army, Israel began to seek other ways to safeguard its interests in the border area.

  In July this year, Israeli officials apparently reached an understanding with Russia to allow government troops to return to the western part of Dar ‘a province and Quneitra, which are adjacent to the Golan Heights. According to reports, in exchange, Russia promised not to allow Iranian-backed militia groups to enter within 80 kilometers of the Golan Heights, and would not begin to obstruct Israel from attacking Iranian targets in various parts of Syria.

  Even after the Syrian government forces began to launch an offensive against southern Syria, many Syrians in the region still held the hope that Israel would at least prevent the Syrian government from retaking the neighboring province of Quneitra. Thousands of people fled to the area adjacent to the Golan Heights, but Israel did not intervene to protect them.

  A local community leader in the western part of Dar ‘a province said that he soon realized that it was a mistake to rely on Israel.

  "Believe me, Israel will regret its silence about what happened in southern Syria," he said. People in our town and some neighboring towns have barely reached a reconciliation with the regime, but this reconciliation will affect Israel in the near future. "

  According to the report, when the Syrian government forces approached, some anti-government militants contacted their Israeli acquaintances and sought asylum for fear that the government forces would retaliate. Israeli officials responded by allowing a few anti-government commanders and their immediate families to enter Israel on the night of July 22. Others were turned away.

  The whereabouts of these commanders and their relatives are still unknown. Syrians say that some people are said to be in Israel and others are in Jordan. A former commander informed his subordinates that he had arrived in Turkey.

  As for ordinary combatants, most people choose to stay at home and surrender to the government instead of fleeing to Idlib, the only remaining enclave of anti-government forces. Some have been arrested, apparently for cooperating with Israel, while others have joined pro-government militias or Syrian government forces. (Compile/Yan Fang)

In December, the delivery volume of new forces exceeded 20,000 for the first time, and the ideal possession exceeded 600,000.

At the beginning of 2022, when we summarized the delivery volume of new power car companies, we said that "the first half of the year belongs to Tucki, and the second half belongs to Nezha", while the whole year of 2023 belongs to LI, and the delivery volume in December exceeded 50,000 units.

However, in 2022, the delivery volume was the first for five consecutive months, and Nezha broke the delivery record many times. However, the delivery volume was halved in December, ranking first from the bottom among the new forces that announced the delivery volume.

*/The complete December new power delivery list, 2023 delivery list and historical cumulative delivery list are placed at the end of the article.

Delivery in December: 50,353 units

Delivery in 2023: 376,030 units

Historical cumulative delivery: 633,364 units

Ideally, the target sales volume of 300,000 units in 2023 was achieved in November ahead of schedule, but it did not stop breaking the record. In December, 50,353 new cars were delivered, and the cumulative delivery volume exceeded 600,000 units (633,364 units).

In 2024, there will be two heavy new cars on the market, one is the ideal MEGA of MPV model, which will be officially launched on March 1, and the other is the ideal L6 of the big five-seat SUV, which is directed at AITO M7.

According to Li Xiang, the founder of Ideality, Ideality will "strive to be the number one luxury brand in China market" in 2024, with a target sales volume of 800,000 units. (The highest-selling BMW in BBA in 2022 sold 791,900 units. )

In the first half of 2023, the delivery volume of AITO series was no longer announced. With the change of the model of M7 and the listing of M9, AITO finally came back to life in the second half of the year, and its sales in December exceeded 20,000 units for the first time, reaching 24,468 units.

Among them, the customer M7 delivered 20,611 units, and the cumulative number of large orders exceeded 120,000 units. The customer M9 also received more than 30,000 large orders within 7 days of listing.

Delivery in December: 20,115 units

Delivery in 2023: 141,601 units

Historical cumulative delivery: 400,311 units

In 2023, Tucki opened low and went high. In the first half of the year, it delivered less than 10,000 units for six consecutive months, but at the end of the year, it delivered more than 20,000 units for three consecutive months, and delivered 20,115 units in December.

The cumulative delivery volume has exceeded 400,000 units (400,311 units), which is only less than 50,000 units (49,283 units) from Weilai, which ranks second among the new forces.

Tucki also released the pure electric MPV model Tucki X9 on January 1st, with a starting price of 359,800 yuan, and received 5,000 large orders before the launch.

Zero Run did not achieve a monthly delivery of more than 20,000 units in 2023, and delivered 18,618 new cars in December, while the cumulative delivery in history exceeded 300,000 units (308,395 units).

However, in 2024, the second SUV model, Zero Run C10, will be launched. The price of this car is expected to be lower than that of Zero Run C11 (starting price is 149,800 yuan), and it is not a problem that the monthly delivery volume breaks 20,000.

Delivery in December: 18,012 units

Delivery in 2023: 160,038 units

Historical cumulative delivery: 449,594 units

Weilai delivered 18,012 new cars in December, with a cumulative delivery of 449,594.

In 2023, Krypton broke the monthly delivery record of this brand every month except January and September, reaching 13,476 units in December, and the annual delivery volume was 118,685 units.

It is a pity that the historical cumulative delivery volume is only a short distance from the mark of 200,000 units, which is 196,633 units.

In December, Extreme Krypton also released the medium-sized pure electric car Extreme Krypton 007, which is equipped with 800V high-voltage electrical architecture and comes standard with a 75.6-degree battery pack, and only needs 20,000 yuan to choose a 100-degree battery pack.

Historical cumulative delivery quantity: no data available at present.

In December, two new forces achieved a breakthrough of 10,000 units, and Zhiji Automobile sold 10,412 units in December.

However, it should be noted that according to the official statement of Zhiji Automobile, 10,412 units are sales, which is different from the statistical caliber of delivery data released every month.

But in any case, Zhiji LS6 really revitalized the whole brand.

Delivery in December: 10,017 units

Delivery in 2023: 50,552 units

Historical cumulative delivery: 76,752 units

Lantu Automobile delivered more than 10,000 vehicles a month for the first time, and delivered 10,017 new vehicles in December, with the annual delivery exceeding 50,000 vehicles (50,552 vehicles).

Historical cumulative delivery: 375,545 units

Nezha delivered only 5,135 cars in December, ranking first from the bottom among all the new car companies that are still announcing the delivery.

(Of course, still announcing the delivery volume means that car companies have confidence in themselves and even dare not announce the delivery volume, which is the most dangerous. )

This delivery data is not surprising. After all, there is no extended-range SUV like the zero-run C11 in Nezha to boost sales.

However, Nezha’s extended-range five-seat SUV, Nezha L, is already on its way. The official has released the concept map of this car, and this car has also appeared in the catalogue of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

The following are the new power delivery rankings in December, the delivery rankings in 2023, and the historical cumulative delivery rankings:

Hundreds of billions of dollars have been invested in loneliness. Why is Baidu Zhijia overtaken by Huawei corners?

Recently, Xia Yiping, CEO of Extreme Yue Automobile, was not surprisingly dead in an interview. He said that Huawei’s investment in smart driving is 10 billion, while Baidu’s investment in smart driving is 100 billion, which means that Baidu’s investment in smart driving is ten times that of Huawei. Of course, it is self-evident.

Many people are shocked by this news. Most people know that Baidu is really doing smart driving. A few people also know that Baidu has its own car. Of course, the car is also using Baidu’s solution. But it is estimated that not many people will think that Baidu’s investment will be greater than Huawei’s. After all, Huawei’s products are everywhere, and the market influence is huge. Baidu’s products are much rarer, and its influence is even more incomparable.

Baidu and Huawei, who is more intelligent in driving and who invests more? Let the Kung Fu car show you around.

(1) 100 billion investment is a bit empty?

Let’s take a look at the historical process of intellectual driving between the two sides, and then combine their R&D investment to see what the two companies have done in recent years.

Baidu’s intelligent driving research and development began in 2013. In this year, Baidu began to do open source projects and began to make autonomous driving solutions. From the perspective of "qualifications" alone, Baidu is indeed one of the earliest enterprises in China to do smart driving, which is basically synchronized with Tesla and Google abroad. In 2021, Baidu defined three directions for its own smart driving, namely, providing smart driving solutions to OEMs, building their own cars, and then developing and sharing unmanned vehicles.

According to the public financial report, from 2013 to 2023, Baidu’s total R&D investment was 167.2 billion. If 100 billion was invested in smart driving, it means that the R&D investment of smart driving accounted for 59.8% of Baidu’s R&D investment.

How can I put it? This data is not impossible. After all, most of the money earned by Baidu in recent years has really been invested in the two directions of smart driving and AI. However, considering Baidu’s own business, I personally think that the proportion of investment in smart driving alone should not exceed 50%. More than 50 billion may be there, and 100 billion feels a bit empty.

Huawei’s investment in smart driving is relatively clear. When Huawei’s new smart car solution brand "Gankun" was released in April this year, Jin Yuzhi, CEO of Huawei’s smart car solution BU, once introduced that the department was established in 2019, and the accumulated R&D investment in five years exceeded 30 billion (about 6 billion per year). This data is still relatively credible.

Of course, if you want to talk about Huawei’s R&D investment in other areas, such as big models and AI, it’s hard to say whether R&D funds are included in smart driving investment. Anyway, it’s a muddle.

However, at least one thing is certain. The investment of Huawei Smart Drive and Baidu Smart Drive should be in an order of magnitude, and it will never be as bad as ten times. Because Baidu started earlier, it is still possible to invest more.

(2) What is the difference in output?

Let’s just say that Baidu has really invested more. Next, let’s talk about output, and the difference between the two may be a bit big.

When Huawei first entered the field of intelligent driving, it put forward its own goals, hoping to be Bosch in the era of electrification and provide a full set of intelligent solutions for OEMs. However, the effect is not ideal, most enterprises hold a wait-and-see attitude, and the promotion is not smooth. So Huawei made a smart car selection project, that is, cooperated with the OEM, but Huawei defined the smart car and gave the core intelligent hardware and software.

After several years of development, Huawei has formed a complete set of industrial chains. Needless to say, intelligent driving technology, the system has developed to the third generation, supporting intelligent assisted driving in the whole scene and intelligent parking in the whole scene, and then it can realize intelligent driving from parking space to parking space. In order to better realize intelligent driving, Huawei has also built its own high-performance motor and a special Turing intelligent chassis, which can realize full-dimensional perception, 3D control and intelligent collaboration.

Let’s put it this way: even the old rivals want to purchase Huawei’s motors. Recently, the independent BU department has been valued at 115 billion, and major car companies are scrambling to invest. Huawei is even the first company to beat down the price of lidar. It can be said that Huawei’s investment in smart driving has been richly rewarded and it has its own intelligent industrial chain.

Baidu’s smart driving output is not satisfactory. Since 2015, Baidu has found a lot of well-known car companies such as Daimler, BMW, Ford and Volvo to cooperate. Many domestic cars have also "tested the water", but the effect is not obvious. Cars equipped with Baidu Zhijia are rarely publicized as their own "business cards".

One of the most famous is probably Weimar, who has been holding Baidu for a long time and hasn’t done it yet. In the end, Baidu couldn’t help but make a gathering, and there was basically no noise. Including now, it has been listed for half a year, and the highest monthly sales volume is only 1143 vehicles.

The only achievement that can be achieved is probably that the radish runs fast. However, in terms of completion, it still only supports getting on the bus at a specific location, and the coverage is limited. There is still a long way to go before it can truly replace the online car. The biggest advantage is that it is cheap, but this cheapness is actually based on the "capital operation" of Internet companies. I hope to achieve market monopoly, and then I will serve as a "platform". Didi and Meituan are all like this.

However, it is hard to say whether the radish will eventually become Didi, Meituan, or Xiaohuangche and Ruixing.

(3) Hardware companies and Internet companies are very different?

The difference between Baidu Smart Drive and Huawei Smart Drive is also the difference between two different companies to a large extent. Baidu is a typical Internet company, while Huawei is closer to a hardware company.

The characteristics of software companies are that they like to invest early, get high returns, and pursue a monopoly. Like Baidu, the earliest money was made by being a search engine. When Google withdraws from the China market, Baidu will become a monopoly. Since then, it has been making big profits, and on this basis, it has expanded the business of encyclopedia, knowledge, post bar and so on, forming a complete ecological circle.

But this has also led to a problem. Baidu lacks the ability to actually make products. Baidu has been doing smart driving for so many years. The car is from the main engine factory, the laser radar is from the supplier, the chip is from NVIDIA, and the smart card is also bought. Speaking of things that belong to Baidu, it is that set of algorithms.

Therefore, Baidu is very passive, and it can’t control how much the car sells. Baidu can’t form a monopoly in the field of smart driving, and its algorithm can’t sell at a unique high price. For so many years, Baidu’s smart driving business has been losing money. Even many engineers in the factory finally "ran away" with the main engine factory.

Huawei started out as a communication equipment. Although it also has Internet genes, it is closer to hardware companies. Therefore, we can see that every step Huawei takes will strengthen its strength. The car is defined by its own design, the laser radar is its own, the chip is its own, the power card is its own, the motor and chassis are also its own, and it can even be sold outside.

This has formed a virtuous circle, and the cost of Huawei’s smart driving is getting lower and lower, gradually flattening the R&D investment and forming a positive cycle. The worse news is that with Huawei becoming the representative of China Zhijia, Baidu’s investment for so many years will probably be wasted.

(4) Kung Fu is angry

Baidu really started to do smart driving earlier, and invested more probability than Huawei. However, from the perspective of "output", Huawei’s achievements are even more dazzling. The average transaction price of a model developed by Huawei like this exceeds 500,000, and the monthly sales volume is nearly 20,000 units. The monthly revenue of this car alone is in the hundreds of billions, and Baidu only envies it. Not to mention that Huawei BU is independent, and it can earn tens of billions just by selling shares.

In the final analysis, consumers still look at products, not how early you do it and how much you invest. If you spend more money, you will definitely do better. How can domestic cars surpass joint venture cars? The earning power is far from perfect. The same money depends on who can spend more on the cutting edge, which better reflects the ability of the enterprise. What do you think?

How to properly dispose of OBD on trucks after the State Council’s exposure?

[Truck House Original] This year’s major events in the freight industry have continued. In addition to elimination, what everyone recently discussed is that the national five diesel trucks should be installed.On-line monitoring equipment(OBD) thing. But in some places,Forcing truck drivers to install at their own expenseOBDThe Chinese government network subsequently exposed this incident.

How to properly dispose of OBD on trucks after the State Council's exposure?

Recently, the official website of the Chinese government issued a document to inform about the supervision of the compulsory installation of remote online monitoring equipment by truck drivers in Xingtai City, Hebei Province.

How to properly dispose of OBD on trucks after the State Council's exposure?

The investigation by the inspection team shows that:

1. Longyao County will install OBD as a heavy-duty diesel vehicle.Preconditions for the inspection of operating vehicles, require heavy diesel fleet or owners to provide OBD installation receipts and certificates of relevant companies before they can apply for operating licenses.

2. Xingtai Eco-environmental Protection Bureau designated 9 operators to install OBD services, and the installation cost of each set of equipment.From 1600 yuan to 2650 yuan.And the charge management is not standardized.No invoice will be provided after charging.. By October 16th, the above nine operators had installed OBD for 25,247 trucks, with a charge of 39,615,400 yuan.

How to properly dispose of OBD on trucks after the State Council's exposure?

Before the State Council’s exposure, the installation of OBD on trucks was always a hot topic of dispute among card friends. Before that, the author wrote an article (Review: Is OBD installed on trucks for fines? Don’t be silly, these questions are the focus), and wrote some questions about the current card friends.

Generally speaking, there are two parts that are most controversial about the installation of OBD.One is the problem of charging mentioned above, and the other is whether it is legal for some places to force truck drivers to install OBD at their own expense by using annual inspection and new car licensing as preconditions.

How to properly dispose of OBD on trucks after the State Council's exposure?

●  Is there a standard for installing OBD with a price difference of nearly 2000 yuan?

At present, Shanghai, Shandong Liaocheng, Weifang and many other places require the diesel trucks of National 4 or National 5 to be equipped with OBD, but they are all free, although there is a time limit for free. But in Henan, trucks must be equipped with OBD equipment, and different places charge different fees.

fromLuohe City Eco-environment Bureau announced earlier.According to the information of the vehicle-mounted terminal construction enterprise for remote online monitoring of OBD in Heshi, the price of installing OBD is mostly 1420 yuan.

How to properly dispose of OBD on trucks after the State Council's exposure?

However, a card friend left a message saying that the price of installation in each place is different.About 1000-3000 yuan, which means that the price difference between high and low is about 2000 yuan.This money is not a small expense for card friends, and it may be a family’s monthly expenses.

Why do the charges vary from place to place? Why is the price difference of OBD installation so big? Are there any relevant laws and regulations that explain the charges? These are all concerns of truck owners.

How to properly dispose of OBD on trucks after the State Council's exposure?

●  Do not force drivers to install OBD in some places where the annual review and new car registration are blocked.

In addition to charging, the reason why truck owners are most resistant to installing OBD is that in some places, drivers are forced to install OBD at their own expense with various preconditions, such as no annual inspection, no new car license and no road transport certificate, and the general self-funded expenses are not low.

The following are some card friends’ messages:

How to properly dispose of OBD on trucks after the State Council's exposure?

How to properly dispose of OBD on trucks after the State Council's exposure?

How to properly dispose of OBD on trucks after the State Council's exposure?

In addition, a letter sent to the owner by Puyang City Ecological Environment Bureau also made it clear."Vehicles that are dismantled, modified and not required to install and use OBD will not be able to be examined annually."

How to properly dispose of OBD on trucks after the State Council's exposure?

We all know that 2020 is a crucial year to win the blue sky defense war. Therefore, in terms of vehicle exhaust emissions, the state has increased its control. Therefore, it is understandable that the state requires vehicles to be equipped with OBD, so as to monitor illegal vehicles and reduce environmental pollution.

But it should be noted that some placesIs there any legal and regulatory basis for forcing truck drivers to install OBD at their own expense, based on annual inspection, licensing of new cars and not being allowed to go on the road?Otherwise, just a word and a document from the relevant departments will make all truck drivers pay a large sum of money to install OBD, so that everyone will be willing to install it.

As we can see, the freight chaos in Xingtai exposed by the State Council involves the problems of charging, charging without invoicing and forcing drivers to install OBD at their own expense with preconditions, which has shown that the state is not allowed to do this.

●  Postscript

The freight chaos in Xingtai has been exposed in the State Council, and the problem of local truck owners has been solved. However, there are still many restrictions on the installation of OBD in trucks in many places in China. Can the exposure of the State Council be a warning to other places? (Text/Gao Li Min)

Evolution of Traditional Auspicious Patterns in China

    Throughout the ages, people’s daily lives have always been decorated with thousands of auspicious patterns. The unique decorative style and national artistic language of auspicious patterns convey people’s desire to seek good fortune and avoid evil and their yearning for a better life.

  Auspicious patterns first originated from people’s pursuit of "auspiciousness" meaning, which is a remarkable expression of the traditional auspicious concept of the Chinese nation. Such as pine and cypress, crane indicating longevity, Yuanyang and butterfly symbolizing beautiful love, Guan Gong and Zhong Kui who keep the town safe, and the three immortals who symbolize happiness, auspiciousness and longevity. China people’s daily activities, such as basic necessities of life, weddings, funerals and weddings, sacrifices and prayers, festivals and celebrations, are all branded with the concept of praying for good luck.

  There are many auspicious records in ancient Chinese books. From the Book of Changes, "auspicious things are auspicious, like knowing things, accounting for things"; In Zhuangzi’s Life on Earth, it can be seen that "auspiciousness" is the spiritual hope of people around the simple propositions of human beings such as survival and reproduction. Because of this, China people’s pursuit of good fortune has become a tough bond, which has been passed down from generation to generation, and has formed a national cultural phenomenon rooted in our daily life in the historical circulation of thousands of years.

  So when did the traditional auspicious patterns in China begin to appear?

  According to the records, the totem of "auspiciousness" began to appear on rock paintings, sculptures and pottery in ancient times. In primitive culture, the ancestors worshipped and conquered nature through conscious labor and hunting. They carved decorative symbols on rock paintings and pottery to achieve the purpose of survival, luck and totem worship. For example, the bird patterns and frog patterns on pottery unearthed in Banpo and Miaodigou in Shaanxi Province are the quasi-symbols of the early sun and moon, and they are the materialized carriers of the sun and moon gods revered by people in their imagination. Primitive ancestors carved these symbols to express their worship of nature and gods and their prayers for good weather.

  Since then, from the rich and solemn patterns on bronzes in Xia and Shang Dynasties, Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period, such as gluttonous patterns, dragon patterns, bird and beast patterns, to the tomb murals in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the tree patterns, animal patterns with Buddhist and metaphysical colors and the auspicious theme of Kui Wen; From the rich auspicious elements in art forms such as flower-and-bird painting, porcelain and paper-cutting in Song and Yuan Dynasties to the unprecedented prosperity of folk Yangliuqing, Taohuawu and Weifang New Year pictures in Ming and Qing Dynasties, the traditional auspicious patterns in China have gone through a long evolution process, and with the development of the times, they gradually deviated from the pure worship of gods and tended to be secular, and entered the lives of ordinary people from emperors and nobles.

  In the long process of development, auspicious patterns bear the hope of China people for a happy life, forming a complete system with national characteristics, and their shapes and forms are gradually enriched and diversified, especially in folk auspicious art, there are many lively, joyful and free shapes, which generally show a diversified development trend.

  In addition to a long history, auspicious patterns are rich in types, which can be divided into animals, figures, plants and utensils according to their performance contents, all of which have a beautiful meaning of seeking luck and receiving happiness, reflecting the rich imagination and superb artistic level of China people.

  For example, all kinds of animal patterns that have appeared since ancient times are mostly presented in abstract and generalized forms, including all kinds of birds, animals, fish and insects, as well as dragons, phoenixes, unicorns and "four gods" endowed with auspicious meanings in people’s imagination. Ancient Kirin was regarded as a godsend, with a beautiful meaning of praying for the continuation of children; Crane is the representative of longevity, and "The Millennium of Crane Life" and "The Longevity of Pine Crane" are all common themes. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, cranes were also embroidered in the clothes of officials as a product to show auspicious and status. Deer with the same sound as the word "Lu" in "Fu, Lu and Shou" are used to indicate prosperity; Butterflies with beautiful images and love flowers are used to symbolize happy love, etc. Cats and butterflies often appear together in traditional Chinese painting, which is homophonic and symbolizes longevity. All these are too numerous to mention.

  Characters are also very common types of auspicious patterns, including stories of characters, gods of characters, historical and dramatic figures, etc., which usually have the meaning of exorcising evil spirits, praying for marriage and children, punishing evil and promoting good, and reflecting people’s happy life and pursuit of truth, goodness and beauty. For example, in the Song Dynasty, with the development of urban economy, there appeared many custom auspicious paintings with auspicious meanings, such as peddlers’ pictures, beauties’ pictures and babies’ plays. Su Hanchen, a famous painter in the Northern Song Dynasty, created a picture of a baby in the autumn court, which depicts a scene in which two babies, one big and one small, are playing in the courtyard. The characters’ faces are round and richly dressed, showing a lively and naive state, and the background is set against plants with auspicious meanings such as hibiscus and chrysanthemum. The game of "pushing dates and grinding" played by them also implies the meaning of early birth.

  In addition to animals and figures, plants are also a large category of auspicious patterns, such as plum, orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum, peony, pomegranate, pine and cypress. Other artifacts, such as longevity bottles, harps, ruyi, and silver ingots; Runes, such as auspicious clouds, eight diagrams, palindromes, swastikas and other types. Most of them come from the extraction of real-life materials and appear in the same auspicious pattern in the form of combinations. For example, auspicious clouds are often accompanied by dragons, magpies fall on plum branches, which means happy events are connected and beaming, and pine and cypress, longevity stones and cranes are more common birthday themes, which convey various auspicious meanings.

  With the development of the times, auspicious patterns are constantly absorbing new cultural elements, playing notes that conform to the current aesthetic taste, adding new content with the times to traditional culture, and demonstrating the strong vitality of this folk art. For example, the new year pictures of door gods are a widely circulated type of traditional auspicious patterns. People post them on doors as guardians to guard doormen, ward off disasters and ward off evil spirits, and pray for good luck. Up to now, many areas still retain the custom of posting new year pictures of door gods during the Spring Festival. This auspicious pattern with a history of thousands of years has been constantly given a new look in the evolution of the times.

  During the Anti-Japanese War, literary and art workers in the base areas created many new New Year pictures. On the basis of drawing lessons from the traditional creative techniques of New Year pictures, the artist added the images of the Eighth Route Army, militia and common people to the paintings of door gods, which endowed the works with rich times. Among them, the most representative is the New Year painting "Defending the Border Region" created by the famous artist and art educator Wang Zhanfei. In this New Year picture, the author depicts the left and right door gods as the images of the border militia and the people riding horses with guns and wielding knives. The figure on the left side of the picture is wearing a military cap, holding a pistol and a Grenade at his waist, holding his head high and showing a determined and mighty look. On the other hand, the figure on the right is armed with a long knife, dressed in a sheepskin coat with the characteristics of northwest China and wearing a towel, and his eyes are bright, reflecting a mighty fighting posture. The slogan "All the people in the country are United as one heart" is engraved on the New Year picture, which fully shows the people’s hard work and simplicity, the fighting enthusiasm of one heart and the purpose of art serving the people and the war of resistance. On the one hand, such New Year pictures draw lessons from and absorb the modeling style of traditional door-keeper New Year pictures, on the other hand, they add new significance to traditional auspicious patterns in terms of characters and works connotation.

  During the period of fighting against the epidemic, many new door-god paintings with the characteristics of the times also appeared. During the Spring Festival in 2020, out of the hope that the epidemic situation will disperse as soon as possible and people’s production, life and health will be guaranteed, many artists created new year pictures of door gods with the theme of epidemic prevention propaganda, which were widely loved by the people. For example, Murong Yindao, the original animator, used the paintings of door gods created by two historical figures, Huo Qubing and Xin Qiji, which meant to "get rid of illness" and "give up illness", hoping to disperse the epidemic as soon as possible. Another example is the anti-epidemic New Year picture created by Hu Guangkui, director of Mianzhu New Year Picture Museum in Sichuan Province, together with several non-genetic inheritors of New Year pictures. In the picture, Zhao Gong, the god of the town house, was put on a mask, and the propaganda slogan of "enhancing the awareness of prevention" was written. In addition, there are many folk New Year pictures creators, teachers and students from major art colleges involved in the creation of anti-epidemic New Year pictures. They incorporated elements related to epidemic prevention and control into traditional New Year pictures, making this ancient auspicious pattern closer to people’s lives. Many new New Year pictures are becoming more and more popular among young people. While keeping pace with the times, these works also bring into play the functions of traditional New Year pictures, such as keeping the house safe and praying for good luck, so that traditional culture can glow with the vitality of the times.

  In addition, in the 2008 Olympic Games, the 2022 Winter Olympics and other large-scale sports events, we can also see many modern innovative applications of traditional auspicious patterns. For example, the mascot of the Beijing Paralympic Winter Games "Snow Rongrong" is designed on the basis of "Lantern", a traditional auspicious symbol with China characteristics. Lanterns are often hung on auspicious festivals, such as New Year’s Eve and Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first month, and have beautiful meanings such as jubilation, warmth and light. "Snow Rongrong" is based on lanterns, with bright and auspicious China red as the overall color tone, and the traditional auspicious pattern "Ruyi Wen" is added at the top, and the white space on the face and the top of the head indicates snow, which not only echoes the hosting season of the Winter Olympics, but also has the beautiful meaning of "auspicious snow and auspicious years". The overall image is very lovely and is widely loved by domestic and foreign audiences.

  The traditional auspicious patterns in China concentrated on expressing people’s pursuit of good luck, adding happiness and longevity, driving away disasters and avoiding harm, expressing people’s universal yearning for a better life, and in the process of evolution and development, they became a unique symbol of China folk art, reflecting China people’s rich imagination and superb artistic level, with aesthetic value deeply rooted in people’s hearts. With the development of the times, auspicious patterns are constantly endowed with new connotations and new forms, which makes this ancient and excellent traditional culture play a new movement in line with the aesthetic taste of the times.

Can’t MMA, how dare you call yourself a star player?

Do China audiences still want to enjoy the movie plot of a five-foot-four-inch-tall Qing Dynasty man in a gown and pigtails who defeated the Western Hercules with his bare hands?

Twenty years ago, the answer was yes. In the series of movies of Huang Feihong, Ren Shiguan plays a down-and-out martial artist who is dressed in hard qigong, but still laments that "he can’t compete with foreign guns". In a blink of an eye, Huang Feihong, who traveled to the United States, has evolved to avoid revolvers by flying. In such a script market that pursues strange feelings, it is natural and reasonable for an oriental culture learner who seems to have no advantage at all to rely on Zen machine to defeat white muscular men. If he can give a sermon, it will be more convincing.

But now it’s 2015, and most viewers have stopped eating this set. People know Gracie, Bo Qiu and Fido • Emilianko knows what fighting is all about. Movies such as ong bak, Warrior and Winter Yin Gong, with the theme of fighting, are popular all over the world. It is hard for producers to try to replicate the imaginative imagination of action movies in the 1990s in China, but it is hard not to gain ridicule.

Actor Jason Wu may be the best narrator of this performance revolution. He recently participated in two fighting movies — — Wolf Warriors and Breaking Wolf 2, especially the latter, quickly became the dark horses at the box office last week. The audience was pleasantly surprised by the change of Jason Wu’s performance style, and even felt that even his baby face for many years began to show vicissitudes.

In the early TV dramas such as Tai Chi Master and Kung Fu Kid, Jason Wu’s role always continues the traditional pattern of "Kung Fu Kid". It is difficult for the audience to distinguish the protagonists in these stories. Whether he is Fang Shiyu, Hong Xiguan or Yang Luchan, they are all laughing and laughing, with deep internal forces and can fly over the eaves. The characters in these films and TV plays are similar.

In 2005, Jason Wu was invited to play a killer who is good at using a knife in the action movie kill the wolf starring Donnie Yen. This model role was inherited by Zhang Chi in Kill the Wolf 2.

Donnie Yen was unlucky before, and his film achievements were always inferior to those of his peers, Jet Li. However, Donnie Yen is willing to practice new ideas of action movies. He himself has been exposed to free fighting, and kill the wolf has become a testing ground. In the film, Donnie Yen fights with Jason Wu in an alley with a crowbar — — I didn’t design the action in advance, but I relied on my free play. Jason Wu later claimed that he didn’t know that he would really fight, but it obviously gave him a lot of inspiration.

Kill the wolf’s biggest breakthrough lies in the duel between Donnie Yen and Sammo Hung, the ultimate villain. They abandoned the usual performance routines of China action movies and conducted an all-round comprehensive fighting. When Sammo Hung was young, he also had a duel with Bruce Lee, an early advocate of the concept of mixed fighting.

In modern MMA, fighting skills, wrestling skills and sleeping skills are all regarded as indispensable, and close combat in various positions can be taken from different schools. For example, you can throw your opponent, you can also use the knee strike in Muay Thai, you can also use the cross in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and even give your opponent a trick to split the door — — As long as you don’t show any flaws. Donnie Yen used them one by one in his own film experiments.

After kill the wolf, Jason Wu’s acting style changed obviously. In 2006, he filmed Black Boxing with a strong mixed fighting atmosphere, and then, Jason Wu led the action film Spike in 2008. Jason Wu performed hard, trying to express the theme of "fighting hard", but the whole film was still full of Weiya performances and exaggerated fights. At the end of the film, Jason Wu frightened many viewers with the heroic plot of one enemy against a hundred. Spike’s box office reputation is bleak.

In 2007, Jason Wu played the villain No.1 in The True Color of Men. This film is very realistic in the fighting scene, but it still has to bow its head in front of the action film Fuse, which was created and starred by Donnie Yen in the same year. "Fuse" is regarded as the pinnacle of Donnie Yen’s action movies, in which more than 7 minutes of mixed fighting is repeatedly interpreted on the Internet as a textbook-style video material — — This is due to the on-site guidance of a large number of MMA masters. Jason Wu missed the film. Donnie Yen, 44, announced that the fuse would be the end of his action movie.

Donnie Yen is not the first actor to try a new martial arts performance. In Thailand, Tony &bull, who studied orthodox Muay Thai; Jia’s momentum is in full swing. His films "ong bak" and "Winter Yin Gong" have been successful at home and abroad, and he also tried to break into Hollywood. From the audience’s point of view, Tony Jia practices one of the most powerful boxing skills today, with solid kung fu and a good sense of the camera. More importantly, he is still young.

In the American market with high-quality mixed fighting competitions, people are not keen on dazzling fighting actions. But there is still Gavin • Director O ‘Connor’s Fight tells the story of MMA athletes. The China version of this film was born in 2013. Guild Wars directed by Lin Chaoxian used male stars such as Nick Cheung, Eddie Peng Yuyan and Andy On. Except Nick Cheung, all of them were new generation idol actors. Suddenly, everyone received MMA training and played quite well. This film became a dark horse of that year, and both the theme and the effect were surprising.

The upsurge of mixed martial arts even spread to the animation field. In the third part of the widely sought-after domestic animation "Qin Shi Ming Yue", there were a lot of MMA actions in the character confrontation, and the chivalrous men in the late Qin Dynasty showed their surrender skills to each other like Brazilian jujitsu masters.

Compared with China’s action actors’ extensive preference for mixed fighting performance, Tony • Jia’s Muay Thai is inevitably monotonous. After several films and years of exposure, Tony • Jia vaguely noticed the arrival of his own bottleneck period. In 2012, Indonesian director gareth • Evans’s "Raid" was born, and continuous shooting made two films, each of which was amazing. The massive hand-to-hand combat in "Raid" made the film highly appreciated. It also made many people turn their attention to Indonesia, which was originally not amazing.

In Asia, almost all countries have martial arts traditions worth showing off. Although they are rarely shown in movies, the wand in the Philippines, Bankasula in Indonesia and even Majia in Israel are all unique. Action filmmakers from all countries will not ignore their own cultural treasures.

Under great pressure, Tony • Jia and Jason Wu were brought together. Before that, Jason Wu completely embarked on the road of tough guy. He experienced life in the army and was injured or collapsed in various studios. He has appeared in two military movies, I am Special Forces 2 and Wolf Warriors. After polishing, Jason Wu is no longer the dashing constantly chauffeured figure in "Jiangshan comes first".

At this time, it has been ten years since the release of kill the wolf. This sequel "Kill the Wolf 2" is by no means a perfect work. In my opinion, it still has many disharmonies and even serious injuries. Even the reference relationship between the word "kill the wolf" and the characters in the film is obviously not as reasonable as the first one. In the arrangement of martial arts guidance, Tony • Jia’s iron elbow and steel knee are also not able to coordinate with Max Zhang, who is dressed in a suit and moves like an ace agent. But in terms of performance, this film is embracing the future.

For a long time, action movie lovers have regarded Tony • Jia is regarded as Donnie Yen’s imaginary enemy. Whether the title of "The Fuse" intentionally or unintentionally coincides with "The Pirate of the Buddha Line" (alias of "ong bak") or Donnie Yen’s "Tony, you are finished" at the end of the film, it is so subtle. People thought it would eventually be Donnie Yen and Tony • Jia co-produced a male film full of blood. But now, it is Jason Wu who holds the baton.

This time, Jason Wu, with bare tendon and sparse stubble, focused on naked wringing, hook, axe elbow and knee strike in the play, instead of hand folding fan and knocking down the strong enemy in an anti-mechanical way. No one doubts his baby face any more. Forget those kung fu boys, and let the martial arts belong to the martial arts and the mechanics to the mechanics.

Does that mean that the future of action movies belongs to professional fighters? Maybe we should go to K-1 or UFC champion to find the next Tony • Jia? Not necessarily. Generally speaking, fighters who come out of the arena always face limitations in performance. Zhou Bili and Lu Huiguang both played supporting roles or villains for many years in their acting careers, and Hai Long Liu, a famous Sanda player, did not perform well in Tough Guy 2. We can imagine that even if a producer invited Bo Qiu, the most respected in Muay Thai, to star in the sequel to ong bak, I’m afraid the effect will not be better than Tony &bull, who has a pleasant face; Jia.
