On the evening of July 12th, the 33rd Huading Awards China Film Satisfaction Survey and Release Ceremony will be held in Macau, China. On June 17th, Huading Award Group announced the nomination list of the current Huading Awards in Macau. Five masterpieces of The Battle at Lake Changjin and Chinese Doctors, Love Myth, Miracle Stupid Child and Anger Serious Case, were shortlisted for the best film in China. Zhang Hanyu, Xú Zhēng, Shawn, Liu Ye and Cheng Taishen competed for Best Actress, while Xu Fan, Ma Yixuan, Ma Li, Ni Ni and Deng Jiajia competed for Best Actress.

The investigation and selection period of this Huading Award is from May 2, 2021 to February 28, 2022. This year or so is the period when the film industry and the film market took the lead in stabilizing and recovering rapidly in the world after the epidemic was controlled in China. Many excellent works with both word-of-mouth and box office have emerged in major schedules such as summer, National Day, Chinese New Year and Spring Festival.

Throughout the nomination list of this Huading Award, the main melody films occupy a large proportion, and the themes and types are rich and colorful, including The Battle at Lake Changjin’s Sniper with the theme of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, 1921 with the theme of Party building, Chinese Doctors’s Hug You Through the Cold Winter with the theme of anti-epidemic, Me and My Father, the last trilogy of "Me and Me", and Miracle Stupid Child, which reflects the struggle of ordinary people in Shenzhen’s reform and opening up.

At the same time, many outstanding commercial films, such as Love Myth, Anger Serious Case, Lion Boy, Make a Famous Name, This Killer is Not Too Cold and Quiet, have also been nominated for this Huading Award. Among them, "Love Myth" won eight nominations of China for Best Film, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actor and Actress, Best Supporting Actor and Actress, and Best Producer, leading the nomination list of this Huading Award and becoming the biggest dark horse.

The selection of Huading Award represents the satisfaction of the audience and the professionalism of experts and media judges. Therefore, the actors nominated for Best Actor (commonly known as "the Best Actor") and Best Actress (commonly known as "the Best Actress") in each Huading Award are all powerful actors who are quite popular with the audience.

The same is true of this year’s Huading Award. Zhang Hanyu, Xú Zhēng, Shawn, Liu Ye and Cheng Taishen, the five actors nominated for the best actor in this Huading Award, are not only very popular with the audience, but also have superb acting skills and strong strength. It is not surprising who won the award in the end.

Zhang Hanyu is a powerful actor that the audience likes very much. He is good at playing the tough guy on the big screen. He was nominated for Best Actor for Chinese Doctors. Different from the tough guy images he played in the past, such as soldiers, police officers and captains, Zhang Jingyu, the president of Jinyintan Hospital, suffered from gradual freezing, and had nothing to do with tough guys in terms of health and appearance. However, he was an out-and-out tough guy in the face of the epidemic, and Zhang Hanyu well shaped the character’s inner tenacity and strength.

Xú Zhēng is an excellent actor and director with great talent and audience affinity. His performance is full of joy and harmony. He plays the Shanghai middle-aged man Lao Bai in Love Myth. It is difficult for any other actor to grasp the charm of the character. Only he can best interpret this role. He is a strong contender for this year’s Huading Award.

Liu Ye’s Wang Jicai in "The Islander" and Cheng Taishen’s Liu Qing in "Liu Qing" have won the recognition of many audiences, media and experts, and their strong strength has made the competition for the best actor in this Huading Award more intense.

Xu Fan, Ma Yili, Mary, Ni Ni and Deng Jiajia, the five actresses nominated for Best Actress in this Huading Award, are all powerful stars who have performed well on the screen in the past year.

Xu Fan, who is over 50 years old, was nominated for the Best Actress in the Huading Award for her wonderful performance in Everything About My Mom. In this film, she plays a mother who loves her daughter deeply and suffers from cancer. In this tearful family film, her performance is sincere and touching, which has won the praise of thousands of audiences in Qian Qian.

Ma Yili plays Miss Li, a middle-aged woman in Shanghai, in The Myth of Love, and makes a vivid interpretation of the image of an independent Shanghai-style woman with petty bourgeoisie. She has won the Best Actress and Best Actress awards for films and TV series in the Huading Awards four times before, and this time she is also a popular candidate for this year’s Huading Awards.

Milan played by Mary in The Killer Is Not Too Cold, Wang Huiwu played by NiNi in 1921, and Su Mengdie played by Deng Jiajia in Make a Famous Name, all left a deep impression on the audience.

Who are you more optimistic about the above five actors nominated for the best actress in this Huading Award?

Director is the soul of a film and one of the core competitiveness of the film industry. The five groups of directors nominated for the best director of this Huading Award can be said to include three generations of elite directors.

Directors Chen Kaige, Tsui Hark and Lin Chaoxian were nominated for The Battle at Lake Changjin. Director Chen Kaige, who is nearly 70 years old, has added feelings of home and country and humanistic atmosphere to the film. Tsui Hark, who is over 70 years old, still has exuberant energy and rich imagination. The big-scale war action drama he directed is a magic weapon for The Battle at Lake Changjin to attract audiences. Lin Chaoxian, who is in his fifties, is good at shooting hot war action scenes, and is also the soul of the film The Battle at Lake Changjin.

Liu Weiqiang, Chen Musheng and Lin Chaoxian are the best directors in Hong Kong in Mesozoic era. Chinese Doctors, directed by Liu Weiqiang, is by far the most popular anti-epidemic blockbuster with a win-win reputation and box office. What is commendable is that Liu Weiqiang made this grand narrative theme film vivid and touching. Director Chen Musheng was nominated for the best director for his posthumous work "The Serious Case of Anger", which was highly affirmed by the audience and the judges, and was also a comfort to him.

Muye Wen and Shao Yihui are nominated young directors, and Muye Wen’s Miracle Stupid Child is not as amazing and sharp as Dying to Survive’s, but it is more tender. Shao Yihui’s "Love Myth" was one of the biggest surprises of domestic movies last year, and winning eight nominations for this year’s Huading Award has already explained everything. She is a young female directors with unlimited future.

Zhang Ziyi was nominated for the best cutting-edge director of this year’s Huading Award for directing the "Poetry" unit in "My Father and I". Her acting skills have long been widely recognized by domestic and foreign audiences and the industry, and she has won numerous awards at major film festivals. Now, for the first time, with the director’s works, he has been shortlisted for the Huading Award, and whether he can laugh at the end is of concern.

On the evening of July 12th, the release ceremony of the 33rd Huading Award China Film Satisfaction Survey will be held in Macau, China, and the jury will review and check from a professional perspective to announce the winners of various awards on the spot.

　　//www.autohome.com.cn/news/201501/859852.html

　　Jinghua Times News (Reporter Jia Ting Meng Fanze) Yesterday morning, the reporter learned from the press conference of the Ministry of Culture that 19 webcasting platforms, such as Betta and Huya, were included in the list of illegal and illegal Internet cultural activities because they were suspected of containing obscenity and violence. Liu Qiang, deputy director of the Cultural Market Department of the Ministry of Culture, said that a blacklist system will be established for online platforms and anchors that repeatedly violate the rules, and credit punishment will be imposed, and business activities of violators will be prohibited or restricted.

　　19 penalty results will be announced in time.

　　Liu Qiang, deputy director of the Cultural Market Department of the Ministry of Culture, said that there are two main types of violations in the webcast platform investigated this time. One is that the live broadcast platform for performing arts provides online performances that promote obscenity, pornography and harm social morality. Some "anchors" sexually tease and hint through body and language, and there are violations such as "flashing" and "teasing" to win the audience’s attention and attract the audience to pay for virtual gifts, which is vulgar and indecent and has a bad social impact. Furthermore, the game live broadcast platform provides the game content display with gambling, violence and abetting crime, such as the live broadcast of gangster-themed games "Grand Theft Auto (GTA)5" and "Dragon 0", etc., with bloody pictures and abetting crime, and the live broadcast of illegal game "Zha Jinhua", etc., which promotes gambling behavior and violates social public order and good customs.

　　Therefore, in order to standardize the operation order of Internet cultural market such as online performances, the Ministry of Culture issued the 25th batch of investigation list of illegal Internet cultural activities, and 19 online live broadcast platforms such as Betta, Tiger Tooth Live, YY, Panda TV, Battle Flag TV, Dragon Ball Live, Liujianfang and 9158 were included in the investigation list for allegedly providing Internet cultural products that promote obscenity, violence, instigate crimes and endanger social morality.

　　Liu Qiang introduced that the webcasting platform listed in the investigation list has clear violation facts and sufficient evidence. The live broadcasting platform involved in the case should actively cooperate with the investigation, and should strictly abide by the Interim Provisions on the Administration of Internet Culture and strictly implement the responsibility of content self-examination. The Ministry of Culture has deployed comprehensive law enforcement agencies in relevant regional cultural markets to investigate and deal with the enterprises involved in the case according to law, and announced the punishment results in a timely manner.

　　Violation of the "anchor" will be blacklisted

　　Liu Qiang introduced that in the next step, the Ministry of Culture will focus on establishing a long-term management mechanism, and plan to introduce policies to strengthen the management of online performances, and standardize the key links of online performances in terms of management of business entities and post-event supervision.

　　In addition, a warning list and blacklist system for illegal webcasting platforms and illegal "anchors" will be established, and the behaviors of webcasting platforms and "anchors" will be restrained through the credit punishment mechanism to strengthen industry self-discipline. For anchors who repeatedly violate the rules, the platform will be required not to accept them for anchor business; For live broadcast platforms that repeatedly violate the rules, it is possible to stop providing their content.

　　Liu Qiang said that the current popular mobile APP is not an extra-legal place. It is similar in content and form to the webcast platform and will be included in the management process.

　　> > enterprise response

　　We will continue to improve the platform supervision mechanism.

　　Companies including Betta TV, Tiger Tooth Live, 9158, YY, etc. all responded that they will actively cooperate with the actions of relevant state departments, strengthen the audit management of the platform, and jointly purify the network environment.

　　Betta TV said that yesterday morning, Betta and a number of peers participated in the forum of network culture business units organized by the Ministry of Culture, listened to the publicity and management requirements of laws and regulations, and jointly discussed the development norms of the industry. Betta hopes to provide users with quality live broadcast service through its own efforts.

　　Huya Live also said that it will always adhere to a positive and healthy operation idea, resist vulgar content, resolutely support and cooperate with the actions of relevant state departments, and call on peers to jointly safeguard the green environment of the industry and promote the healthy development of the industry.

　　Tiange Group, which belongs to 9158, responded that this time it was notified by the Ministry of Culture that individual anchors in the platform had performed vulgar performances, and the group had closed the rooms and anchors in time.

　　"The results announced by the Ministry of Culture today are a wake-up call for us and the whole industry, which will enable all platforms in the industry to continue to strengthen the supervision of their own platforms and more effectively promote the sound development of the live broadcast industry." Tiange Group said that they will invest more manpower, material resources and financial resources, continue to strengthen the monitoring and management of the platform, and have the confidence to do a better job in platform supervision.

　　YY Entertainment responded that it will continue to improve the platform supervision mechanism and strictly investigate all kinds of illegal and vulgar live broadcast content. The penalties include closing the live broadcast, titles, confiscation of income and deposits.

　　> > news background

　　Frequent pornographic incidents on live broadcast platforms

　　It is reported that in the past two years, webcasting has rapidly developed into a new Internet culture format, and live broadcast forms such as performing arts live broadcast and game live broadcast have emerged one after another, attracting the attention of a large number of netizens, and the market scale has grown rapidly. According to statistics, the number of users of the webcast platform has reached 200 million, and there are about three or four thousand live broadcast "rooms" online at the same time during the daily peak hours of large-scale live broadcast platforms, and the number of users can reach two or three million.

　　At present, there are about 30 enterprises engaged in webcasting in Beijing, and the industry scale is constantly expanding. Since the second half of 2015, obscene and pornographic incidents represented by "live broadcast creating people" have occurred frequently, violating social morality and even gambling and drug-related problems have occurred frequently, and even some enterprises have used this as a means to create gimmicks for financing and listing, and online pornography is facing new challenges. In this context, the Beijing Network Culture Association launched the activity of negotiating a self-discipline convention, taking regulatory measures to solve the problems existing in the current live broadcast platform and implementing the main responsibility.

　　The day before yesterday, the heads of more than 20 major enterprises engaged in online performance (live broadcast) such as Baidu, Sina, Sohu and iQiyi jointly issued the "Beijing Webcast Industry Self-discipline Convention", promising that all anchors must be certified in real names from April 18; The webcast room must be marked with watermark; Content storage time is not less than 15 days for future reference; For anchors who broadcast political, gun-related, drug-related, violent and pornographic content, serious cases will be blacklisted.

　　Last night, the reporter observed on several live broadcast platforms, such as fighting fish and battle flags, and found that the convention has not been formally implemented, and many platforms have imposed certain restrictions on the performance and dress of the anchor. For example, "it is forbidden to spread vulgar and pornographic pictures, sounds, words, games and video information, causing vulgar interaction in the venue" and "it is forbidden for women to deliberately expose sensitive parts such as cleavage and buttocks". The flag platform also requires the anchor to maintain the order of the live broadcast room and deal with the illegal audience in time. However, in some live broadcast platforms, there are still naked female anchors, and there are also many viewers who leave messages to tease and ask the anchors to "take off their clothes" and "get up and watch their legs".

　　From a concept car pieced together with accessories of other models to an urban leisure SUV that is popular all over the world, RAV4 has created a new history of four-wheel drive, which not only makes the bold idea of "urban leisure SUV" become the development trend of small and medium-sized displacement SUVs at present, but what is more commendable is that it is still the leader in this field after more than ten years of fierce market competition. Therefore, it doesn’t matter whether it was born with Toyota’s unique eye or by mistake. What is important is that it has written a wonderful stroke in the history of automobile development for more than 100 years. Now, let’s go back to 1989, trace its 16-year legendary experience along the growth footprint of RAV4, and expect the upcoming domestic RAV4 to continue its unbeaten legend.

The earliest RAV4

　　The first generation RAV 4 (1994-October 2000)

　　After Toyota introduced RAV4 in 1994, the history of the 4×4 vehicle market changed. From the briefing in 1986, we got a glimpse of its "shocking" predecessor. By the time the concept model appeared at the Tokyo Motor Show in 1989, this 4×4 off-road vehicle, which later became the trend benchmark, had gone through a long "gestation period". After a thorough makeover, the concept car of RAV4 appeared at the Tokyo Motor Show in 1993. Finally, at the Geneva Motor Show in 1994, the official production version of RAV4 was finally born. It’s worth the long wait.

　　Toyota began to sell two versions of RAV4 in Japan in May 1994 (in Britain in June) and soon the sales became very strong. I thought I could sell about 4,500 cars a month, but I received an order for 8,000 cars in the first month, and soon the output doubled.

　　RAV4 is equipped with a 2.0-liter 16-valve four-cylinder engine, which was previously used on the second generation CaMry/Carina (Camry/Carina), and can be equipped with a five-speed manual transmission or a four-speed automatic transmission. It is equipped with full-time four-wheel drive system and optional central locking differential.

　　RAV4′ s compact body, its four-wheel drive, wide track and short front and rear suspension make it have excellent handling performance in any road and weather conditions. All RAV4′ s are designed with safety equipment, which makes them more classified as passenger cars than trucks. Standard safety equipment includes driver’s side airbag, adjustable three-point seat belt and devices to strengthen side collision protection.

　　By combining the elements of traditional passenger cars with the characteristics of light off-road vehicles, Toyota called RAV4 a "new concept" SUV. With this RAV4, Toyota and its customers have been able to enter the attractive emerging market of sport utility vehicles.

　　In March 1995, the new four-door model was put on the market. The four-door version is 16 inches longer than the two-door version and can take five people. The front seat belt pretensioner was also introduced into the market with the release of the four-door version, and the RAV4 two-door version was also equipped with the system in September 1995.

　　RAV4 made its debut in the United States in January 1996, and Toyota also made great improvements to all RAV4 models, including: front double airbags became standard; A high-position rear brake light is introduced; The 2.0-liter 16-valve engine has also been recalibrated to make its emissions cleaner, with less noise and greater torque. Two-wheel drive models were also introduced to the market in 1996, but only front-wheel drive.

　　In 1997, RAV4 only made some minor modifications on the original basis of this "revolutionary" product, including changing the seat cover of the two-door model, providing an electric sunroof as an option on the four-door model, and also marking a digital clock and a large front speaker on the electric window model.

　　In 1998, RAV4 underwent several major changes. External changes include a new grille, front bumper fascia, multi-reflector headlights and crystal diamond taillights. Internal changes include: newly added digital odometer, double cup holder, three-spoke steering wheel and sound system, and also changed the door panel. The engine power has increased by 7 horsepower. The seat cloth on the four-door model has also been changed. Two soft-top versions of RAV4 were introduced to the market in mid-1998. Based on the two-door version of RAV4, it combines the front hard top with the rear movable soft top.

　　In 1999, Toyota provided a perforated leather interior with sports flavor as an option on its RAV4 special edition model, which once again set a good technical standard for small sports utility vehicles. Since that year, the side panels, rearview mirrors and door handles of the same color have been standard on the RAV4 special edition. In addition, three new special edition colors (pearl white, metallic silver and elegant black) have been added as optional.

　　In 2000, two soft-top models and two hard-top models were discontinued.

　　The second generation RAV 4 (October 2000-September 2005)

　　In October 2000, after a thorough redesign, the second generation RAV4 appeared. It is a compact SUV with larger space, stronger off-road performance and wider use. The whole body length, width, height and wheel track of RAV4 have been increased by about one inch or more, respectively, in order to make the interior and exterior space bigger. The shape of the vehicle has been newly designed, which is more aerodynamic and more aggressive. Its power comes from a brand-new 2.0-liter four-cylinder 16-valve DOHC engine, all aluminum, lighter in weight and with intelligent variable valve timing function (VVT-i). With the help of VVT-i function, the vehicle can output 148 horsepower at 6000rpm and 142 fthttps://info.xcar.com.cn/200904/lb. torque at 4000rpm. The second generation RAV4 has been proved to be a low emission vehicle (LEV).

　　In September 2001, the British version of the four-wheel drive model added a D-4D diesel engine.

　　The 2002 model comes standard with gray painted bumper, scratch strip on the side of the car body and a new spare tire cover. The four-wheel drive version can also be equipped with an externally expanded wheel arch. The basic body color still follows the previous year’s style, but a cool pearl white is added. The "L" model is equipped with a bumper with the same color as the body and a scratch strip on the side of the body. The four-wheel drive version can be equipped with a flared wheel arch.

　　Recently, flocks of seagulls once again appeared in Daming Lake in Jinan, Shandong Province, and the scenic cruise ship deliberately opened up a new route to get in close contact with this group of elves.

　　On the Daming Lake in Jinan, seagulls sometimes spread their wings and glide, sometimes dive for fishing, sometimes lie still on the lake, and sometimes chase and play. Groups of seagulls have attracted many citizens to stop and enjoy. It is understood that this is the fourth year that seagulls have "settled in" Daming Lake. This year, the number of seagulls is the largest, and the scenic cruise ships have deliberately opened up new routes to get in close contact with this group of elves.

　　These guests from afar are called Siberian silver gulls. Every spring, some of them will fly to Jinan on time to feel the breath of spring here. According to past experience, this group of elves will leave Jinan soon after a short stay.

The intelligent driver assistance system of Deep Blue SL03 is very easy to use.

It comes standard with an intelligent assisted driving system reaching L2 level, with as many as 15 sensing components, which can realize 360-degree omni-directional monitoring.

It has many functions, such as integrated adaptive IACC, TSR speed limit recognition, BSD blind spot monitoring, LCA lane change assistance and so on, which can reduce the burden on drivers and improve active safety.

In actual use, the operation is not complicated, and it can be activated by dialing the gear twice in a row, and the distance and speed of following the car can be adjusted by the left button of the steering wheel.

It can automatically correct the direction when driving, and can also slow down or stop when the current car slows down or stops, which is useful in high-speed and urban traffic jams.

The active safety system will play a role in an emergency, and it will also give a warning when changing lanes, reversing cars and opening doors.

In the future, it will also support the subscription and installation of more advanced NID3.0 pilot intelligent driving assistance system and APA7.0 remote parking service system, and add more sensing components to the hardware, which has higher recognition accuracy and perception ability.

NID3.0 can realize full-speed adaptive endurance, lane keeping, intelligent lane changing assistance and other functions, while APA7.0 can realize remote parking, remote car moving, memory parking and so on.

In the World Intelligent Driving Challenge, Deep Blue SL03 won the title of "Intelligent Driving Mass Production Competition", which is enough to prove its outstanding mass-production intelligent driving technical strength.

For example, in the intelligent driving assistance of high-speed navigation, the success rate of shunting and merging on the ramp reaches 98%, and 97% of congestion can be avoided under the cruising condition in urban areas, with the minimum following and stopping distance of 2 meters.

But also can identify the danger in weak light or dark environment, and effectively prevent the blind area of the transverse ghost probe at the intersection or in front.

Its perceptual recognition technology based on AI visual recognition and multi-model parallel probability fusion enhances the accuracy of target ranging under high dynamics, and the decision-making model based on multi-target interactive prediction greatly increases the traffic efficiency.

At the same time, the cloud-tube-vehicle trinity high safety guarantee system of Deep Blue Automobile effectively guarantees the safety of the intelligent assisted driving system.

In terms of parking, there are 13 kinds of parking assistance methods, and the parking completion rate is over 97%. In details, it is very powerful to automatically get away from obstacles to facilitate getting on and off, to recognize the state of the ground lock in the parking space, and to refer to the posture of adjacent vehicles when the parking space line is unclear.

Generally speaking, the intelligent driver assistance system of Deep Blue SL03 performs well, but the driver can’t completely rely on the intelligent system. After all, the safety mainly depends on his own control.

After the successful mass production of Huawei’s three-fold mobile phone, Mate XT Extraordinary Master, the long-lost mobile phone market ushered in a long-lost carnival.

By introducing multi-directional bending flexible materials and brand-new hinge technology, Huawei Mate XT extraordinary master can realize a variety of folding methods from single folding to triple folding, and the maximum screen size has reached 10.2 inches, making it the world’s first mass-produced three-fold mobile phone. However, judging from the public selling price from 19999 yuan, Huawei Mate XT is obviously not aimed at the mainstream mass market, but at the more lucrative high-end market.

In fact, in addition to Huawei’s three-fold mobile phone, the smart phone market in 2024 has seen more new changes compared with the previous two years when the overall sales volume declined. From technology to brand competition pattern to industry growth rate, there are obvious differences.

In the midst of change, the inherent pattern of the global smartphone market is being broken.

Xiaomi gradually got rid of the label of "diaosi machine"

Since its birth, Xiaomi has always taken "extreme cost performance" as the main advantage of mobile phone category. In the early stage of development, through the cost-effective strategic play, the shipment of Xiaomi mobile phone did grow rapidly all the way.

From 2012 to 2014, the growth rate of Xiaomi’s mobile phone sales was 22.96%, 160% and 226% respectively. According to the data released by market research organization IDC in the third quarter of 2014, Xiaomi’s market share in China is 14.8%, surpassing Samsung’s 11% and Lenovo’s 12.8%, making it the largest smartphone manufacturer in China.

However, after this model, Xiaomi mobile phone was trapped in the brand dilemma of "diaosi machine". At the same time, it also makes it difficult for Xiaomi to enter the high-end market, and it is difficult to obtain the most profitable cake in the market.

According to public statistics, with a market share of about 17%, Apple has taken away 45% of the global mobile phone revenue and 85% of the global mobile phone profits. With a market share of about 20%, Samsung took about 17% of the global revenue (28% less than Apple), and then took about 12% of the global profit (73% less than Apple), while domestic mobile phones took about 38% of the global revenue with a market share of about 60%, and finally only took about 3% of the global profit.

So at the strategic meeting of Xiaomi Group in early 2022, Lei Jun made it clear: "High-end development is the only way for Xiaomi’s growth, and it is also a life-and-death battle for Xiaomi’s development. We must not be afraid of loss or sacrifice and move forward unswervingly."

After more than two years, Xiaomi’s share in the high-end market has begun to improve.

According to the latest data of Canalys, in the second quarter, among the top five manufacturers of global mobile phone shipments in the price range of more than $600, Xiaomi increased by 71% year-on-year with its continuous demand for 14 series, and its shipments ranked fourth. In the Asia-Pacific region (excluding Greater China), the mobile phone shipments of Xiaomi in the price range above $600 increased by 564% year-on-year; In Europe, the Middle East and Africa, millet shipments in this price segment increased by 100%.

Xiaomi disclosed in the second quarter financial report that in the Chinese mainland market, the price range of Xiaomi mobile phone from 3,000 yuan to 4,000 yuan increased by 5.4 percentage points, the price range from 4,000 yuan to 5,000 yuan increased by 3.5 percentage points, and the price range from 5,000 yuan to 6,000 yuan increased by 2.3 percentage points.

HarmonyOS’s market share has steadily surpassed IOS.

In the first half of 2024, Huawei’s mobile phone business entered a comprehensive recovery.

According to IDC data, in the first half of 2024, Huawei once again ranked first in the smartphone market in China with a market share of 17.5%, and the growth rate of mobile phone shipments in the first quarter and the second quarter was 110% and 50.2% respectively, leading the industry. Although external restrictions continue to tighten, Huawei’s supply capacity continues to improve, and the gap with Apple continues to narrow in the market above 4,000 yuan.

As the mobile phone business stabilized, Huawei’s revenue and profit performance also entered the fast lane of growth. In the first half of the year, Huawei achieved sales revenue of 417.5 billion RMB, a year-on-year increase of 34.3% and a net profit margin of 13.2%. According to this calculation, Huawei’s net profit in the first half of 2024 was 55.11 billion yuan, an increase of over 18% year-on-year, which exceeded the 50 billion mark for the first time. In the first half of 2023, Huawei achieved a total sales revenue of 310.9 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of only 3.1%.

It is worth noting that the recovery of Huawei’s mobile phone business also means that HarmonyOS’s operating system has gained a firm foothold.

In the first quarter of 2024, the market share of HarmonyOS operating system in China reached 17%, surpassing 16% of Apple’s iOS for the first time, mainly due to the decline of Apple’s mobile phone sales and the popularity of Huawei’s mobile phones. In the first half of 2024, the market share of HarmonyOS operating system in China increased to 17.2%, up 66.7% year-on-year, and it has steadily surpassed iOS, second only to Android.

The HarmonyOS operating system was officially released on August 9, 2019, which lasted for 1,778 days. After four generations, the number of ecological devices in HarmonyOS has exceeded 900 million, and 2.54 million Harmony OS developers have invested in the development of the HarmonyOS world, with 4.35 million students studying in HarmonyOS School and 82.7 billion service calls per month.

Titanium Media APP understands that the native applications in HarmonyOS have entered a full-scale sprint stage, and more than 5,000 commonly used applications have all started development. In the fourth quarter of 2024, the official version of HarmonyOS NEXT will be pushed on more models, including Mate70 series.

Driven by AI, global shipments increased by 5% in 2024.

The decline of smartphones began to appear in the first quarter of 2022.

According to the statistics of CINNO Research, the overall sales volume of the smartphone market in China dropped by more than 20% in February of that year. OPPO, vivo and Xiaomi decreased by 45.7%, 38.6% and 20.1% respectively. On May 16th, China ICT Institute released a report saying that from January to March, the total shipments of mobile phones in the domestic market were 69.346 million units, down 29.2% year-on-year.

If we pull this statistical caliber back to ten years ago, we will find that in March 2012, the domestic mobile phone market shipped 39.586 million units. This means that the overall shipment level of the domestic mobile phone industry in the first quarter has been lower than that of the same period ten years ago.

Since 2023, with the outbreak of generative AI, large models and AI have almost become the standard in the smartphone market. This trend began to boost mobile phone sales in 2024.

Canalys predicts that the penetration rate of AI mobile phones will reach 17% in 2024, and this number will further grow rapidly in 2025, reaching 30%. Among them, Apple is still the number one player in this field, accounting for 51% of the market share of AI mobile phones with a shipment scale of 18 million units in the second quarter.

On September 20th, iPhone16 will be released soon. Although the only major change of iPhone16 compared with previous models is the addition of camera control buttons, it is worth noting that Apple Intelligence will launch a beta version next month, which is suitable for new iPhones, iPad and Macs and supports American English. In December, the supported languages will be extended to localized English in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa and the United Kingdom, and Chinese, French, Japanese and Spanish will be supported next year.

It is reported that the early version of Apple Intelligence will focus on text summaries, replies in emails and other messages, and photo editing. With the launch of the official version, the new system may allow Siri to control the iPhone or iPad more accurately, including using Siri to open a single document, move notes to another folder, send or delete emails, open specific publications in Apple News, send network links through emails, and require devices to provide article abstracts.

Canalys predicts that with the blessing of Apple Intelligence service, Apple is expected to achieve further value growth, and further encourage users to purchase Pro series models through differentiation strategy. Apple’s leading product attachment rate and its advantages in chip design, software ecology and cross-device linkage are expected to help it further strengthen its existing competitive advantage.

However, in the long run, the annual growth rate of the smartphone market will gradually enter a platform period after this year’s strong rebound, and it will grow moderately with a compound annual growth rate of 2% from 2024 to 2028.

　　(Year-end feature) Hong Kong | The economic winter has passed and the dawn is gradually emerging.

　　China news agency, Hong Kong, December 27th (Reporter Wei Huadu, Liu Chenyao) In 2022, the COVID-19 epidemic and the external environmental impact remained the same. In the eyes of some people, Hong Kong’s economic performance was not satisfactory. However, all walks of life in Hong Kong refused to "lie flat", and the road to normalization was difficult, but they became more and more brave. As the pace of "customs clearance" approached, the dawn of Hong Kong’s economy gradually appeared.

　　Hong Kong’s economic winter is over.

　　Judging from the data, Hong Kong’s economy once bottomed out in 2022. Since the beginning of this year, the Hong Kong SAR Government has repeatedly lowered its annual GDP growth forecast from 2% to 3.5% to minus 3.2%, and it is expected to record a fiscal deficit of over 100 billion Hong Kong dollars.

　　Wu Lixian, securities strategist of China Everbright Securities International Co., Ltd., said that Hong Kong is an export-oriented economy, and the goods exported from the mainland of China through Hong Kong have decreased due to the closure measures imposed by the epidemic and the weakening of external demand; In addition, interest rate hikes by major central banks around the world have also continuously impacted the investment environment in Hong Kong. This momentum will make Hong Kong’s economy still face challenges in the first quarter of next year, but Wu Lixian believes that the slowdown in foreign interest rate hikes in the second half of 2023, the economic stability in the Mainland and the relaxation of epidemic prevention measures will bring good news to Hong Kong.

　　In fact, the dividend has been delivered in advance in the last few days of 2022. On the evening of December 26th, the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council released the "Overall Plan for Implementing" Class B and B Tube "for novel coronavirus infection, which proposed to cancel the nucleic acid detection and centralized isolation for all personnel after entry. This means that Hong Kong will soon achieve "customs clearance" with the Mainland.

　　Zhuang Tailiang, executive director of Liu Zuode Institute of Global Economics and Finance of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, said in an interview with China News Service: "With the recent reopening of the mainland, the flow of people between the two places will drive up the retail, tourism and store rents in Hong Kong. It is estimated that Hong Kong’s GDP will increase by 5% next year."

　　Hold a grand event and return to the world stage

　　The economic forecast for the whole year is hardly optimistic. Chen Maobo, Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong SAR Government, once said that as long as the epidemic continues to be controlled and foreign activities are further resumed, it is expected to support the gradual strengthening of economic recovery in the future. In 2022, Hong Kong did just that.

　　Since the epidemic situation gradually stabilized in the second half of the year, "returning to normal" has been put on the agenda, and the entry epidemic prevention measures have been gradually relaxed, and restoring communication with the outside world has become the primary task. Since the end of August, the "Belt and Road" Summit Forum, Hong Kong Financial Technology Week, International Financial Leaders Investment Summit, International Rugby Sevens, and several Greater Bay Area Financial and Economic Forums have been held one after another, making Hong Kong become the international focus again.

　　Li Jiachao, Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, delivered the message "Hong Kong has returned to normal" to more than 200 foreign guests at the International Financial Leaders Investment Summit in early November, and received a positive response. International financial giants said at the meeting that Hong Kong is still a very important international financial center, and many foreign companies are preparing to increase investment in Asia and Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and Hong Kong will provide assistance as a "super contact".

　　It was followed by the international rugby sevens tournament, an international sports event that had been away for three years. In just three days, it attracted more than 65,000 people, many of whom were foreign tourists from afar.

　　Zhu Jiajian, a Hong Kong invited member of the National Hong Kong and Macao Research Association, believes that foreign guests have come from afar, which shows their confidence and affirmation in the return of Hong Kong’s economy and proves Hong Kong’s attractiveness to international investors.

　　Grasp the opportunity and innovation power in the mainland

　　In 2023, Hong Kong is speeding up its return to normality and taking off again.

　　"The biggest opportunity for global development in 2023 is in China, and the biggest opportunity for Hong Kong’s development is in the mainland." Cai Guanshen, president of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong, believes that relying on the motherland is the advantage of Hong Kong’s economy. Hong Kong’s financial position is solid and its key advantage as a bridge for foreign capital to enter the mainland remains unchanged. I believe that after customs clearance with the mainland, Hong Kong’s economy will soon regain its vitality.

　　Cai Guanshen’s confidence comes from a number of new policies issued by Hong Kong this year. For example, Shenzhen Qianhai Administration and the Treasury Bureau of the Hong Kong SAR Government jointly issued "Article 18" in early September, including building Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong International Venture Capital Cluster and facilitating two-way cooperation in cross-border investment between Shenzhen and Hong Kong. He believes that the innovative and breakthrough mechanism for the governments of the two places to support the development of private equity and venture capital funds can not only promote the cooperation between Hong Kong and Qianhai in financial technology, but also help to form agglomeration effect and promote the cross-border flow of innovative capital to form scale effect.

　　"All kinds of measures are believed to further attract funds interested in investing in the mainland to use Hong Kong as their base camp, open up the capital circulation between Hong Kong and Shenzhen, guide funds from all directions to invest in Greater Bay Area’s creative industries, and let finance serve the real economy." Cai Guanshen said.
