Baidu antigen-antibody structure prediction model is far more effective than AlphaFold3.

According to Baidu AI, in the research and development of antibody drugs and polypeptide drugs, the prediction of antigen-antibody and polypeptide protein complex structure plays a vital guiding role, and its accuracy is very important for subsequent research. However, from the current calculation methods, whether it is the energy function tool based on physical method or the method based on deep neural network, including the recently updated AlphaFold 3 of DeepMind, there is still much room for improvement in the structural prediction accuracy of antigen-antibody and protein-polypeptide complexes. In response to this challenge, PaddleHelix team of Baidu propeller developed HelixFold-Multimer model. By optimizing data, network structure and training methods, it has reached the leading position in the industry in predicting the structure of antigen-antibody/polypeptide protein complex. Compared with the existing methods, HelixFold-Multimer is far superior to similar methods, including the newly released AlphaFold 3, in two core key indicators: DockQ and success rate.

Pixel Wars: A waste of arcade game’s good ideas.

    Special feature of 1905 film network In fact, the concept is not new, not to mention the amazing short film. In 2012, the animated film invited the protagonists of the game and turned it upside down. Up to now, Sony’s "Pixel Wars" has taken the road of combining real people with CG. Comedy stars such as adam sandler, kevin james and Josh Gad are invited. Obviously, the film didn’t want to be normalized from the beginning, and it was played in the guise of "war" and alien invasion, but it was still a shit and Loser transformation. It was not interesting or harmful.

    At the beginning of the film, the film played a card of feelings and memories. Several strange-looking little boys, one of whom lost how to play the game, and the other, although brave, was defeated by others in the final championship battle. The other likes to chat with the girl in the game machine, full of small and medium-sized Xuan Xuan. Obviously, the film is paving the way, and it is also a common routine of Hollywood movies. Everyone’s adult life is greatly influenced by his childhood, so-called psychological trauma. So, the runner-up of the game, carrying the shadow of the second place, grew up to be an ordinary employee of a home appliance company, while the little fat man with no ambition and only catching dolls became the president of the United States. Yes, you are not mistaken. What is the screenwriter’s brain wide open for irony? Another "little devil" got into the panic, and the geek who is infatuated with beautiful women, as always, started a technical otaku.

    When the scene jumps to the present, when adam sandler comes out, the whole style of painting is wrong, not to mention that kevin james has become the boss of the United States. From this time on, the tone of the film is slightly ironic and teasing. After watching such low-cost comedies in the United States, you will be quite familiar with and benefit from all kinds of jokes and techniques, such as ridiculing the American president to pieces and not knowing the "disaster". Isn’t it obvious that the president has no education? In addition, all kinds of important people in the White House have also become the object of ridicule, portrayed as a group of straw bags, officials are not like officials, and the general seems to be half buried in the ground. Of course, Americans haven’t forgotten to give a black hand to their good brother Britain again. The female prime minister has become thin and toothless, and looks like a menopausal woman with hormonal instability. She is not only pale but also very neurotic, which makes people think of her naked contempt for the Queen of England. Behind these satire and ridicule, what we can actually see is the characteristics of the film Pixel Wars, or the serious hooliganism as mentioned above.

    Therefore, after adam sandler saw the heroine’s swaying posture, the first sentence she blurted out was "Wow", a heartfelt surprise brought out by hormones, and then the heroine happened to be in the emotional loss stage of life. Two people flirted and secretly fell in love, but they did not expect to start bickering because of a misunderstanding of a kiss, and they began to stage the plot of tell it to the judge. This way of communication between men and women is obviously the favorite of this kind of comedy, and they don’t like each other. Of course, adam sandler is not the only serious hooligan. Otaku still thinks about the dream girl in his game, and even draws many cartoons full of psychosexuality. One of the conditions for the little devil to join the team against alien aggression is to have dinner with tennis superstar Serena and spend the night together.

    The more the film goes to the back, the stronger the desire of these men for women, and the creator has generously satisfied all their wishes. After becoming a salvation star, adam sandler won the beauty home, and the cartoon goddess of the otaku was regarded as a reward for the victory of the game, and became a real person, and Serena was waiting for the sandwich night that the little devil was thinking about … … It can be seen that these women were rewarded as trophies to these geeks, so when the beautiful game goddess in the movie dropped her double swords and leaned over to kiss the fat and filing otaku, the boys in the audience couldn’t help but make a sound with multiple meanings of regret, envy and jealousy.

    It can be seen that "Pixel Wars" is like a beautiful world that a bunch of game geeks fantasize about themselves. In this world, not only can they become superheroes, but the opponents they beat are actually BOSS, who often can’t get through customs in the game, and then save the world. By the way, they also saved the setting that they have been a loser for the first half of their lives, and finally they can even win the beauty. Therefore, it is not surprising that the film is full of all kinds of imagination about beauty, hero and strength. After all, for the game otaku, the imagination of the external world is always better than the reality, otherwise Serena, a world champion who is strong and independent both physically and mentally, can’t throw herself at a cheating game champion.

    It is precisely because of this that the audience of this "Pixel Wars" is estimated to be very limited. After all, the value position of such male chauvinism and taking all women as trophies is really out of line with the prevailing trend of feminism, not to mention that all the women in the movie are beautiful and amazing, while all the men seem to be a little diabetic.

"Pixel Wars" is such a typical American brainless comedy. The concept of pixels in the old-fashioned game of the film to create alien attacks is somewhat interesting in itself, but it is only limited to this. Wasted the setting and nostalgia that this attack method is electronic and gamified. On the one hand, the game characters in Pixel are much richer, and the story in the movie is still from a human perspective. On the other hand, they are all set as villains who will only destroy or even show their faces and break into slag, destroying their childhood and feelings in the game hall with steel.

 

Ministry of Environmental Protection: The quality of water environment in China is generally good, and some tributaries are seriously polluted.

  BEIJING, Nov. 18 (Xinhua)-Zhao Yingmin, vice minister of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, said on the 18th that the water environment quality in China is generally improving, but the situation is still grim, with widespread ecological destruction in river basins, non-point source pollution not effectively curbed, serious pollution in some tributaries, prominent eutrophication in some lakes, water environment carrying capacity reaching or approaching the upper limit, and "black odor" problems in many rivers and ditches flowing through towns. However, there is no contradiction between the overall improvement of the country and the local deterioration.

  The the State Council Press Office held a routine briefing on the State Council policy today to introduce the policies related to the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" for eco-environment. For the reporter’s "‘ Water Ten Articles ’ Zhao Yingmin answered questions such as the progress made in one year’s implementation, what problems exist in water pollution prevention and control, and the focus of the next step.

  Zhao Yingmin introduced that "Water Ten Articles" was released in 2015, and this year is the first implementation year, which has made great progress. Over the past year, there have been six main developments: First, according to the requirements of the "Water Ten Articles", the Ministry of Environmental Protection and 31 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) signed a responsibility letter for water pollution prevention and control, which decomposed the quality improvement tasks required by the "Water Ten Articles" into provinces one by one, and also required the provinces to decompose them into cities one by one, and finally implemented them in 1940 control units across the country. Each unit has clear and specific environmental quality for each year. At the same time, the Ministry of Environmental Protection has also established a national water pollution prevention and control mechanism, which has promoted the establishment of a linkage and cooperation mechanism for water pollution prevention and control in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta regions.

  The second is to organize the compilation of water pollution prevention and control plans for key river basins, prevent and control water pollution in the whole process, promote water resources conservation and recycling, and strengthen ecological protection and restoration.

  The third is to organize investigation and evaluation of the environmental protection status of more than 900 centralized drinking water sources in cities at prefecture level and above, and guide all localities to speed up the standardized construction of drinking water sources. This includes the delineation of drinking water source protection areas, and cleaning up illegal buildings and sewage outlets in the protection areas according to law.

  Fourth, according to the requirements of water quality improvement, decompose and implement the targets and requirements for emission reduction of major water pollutants in the 13 th Five-Year Plan and 2016.

  The fifth is to implement the task of comprehensively improving the environment of 130,000 newly established villages by 2020, implement the central rural energy conservation and emission reduction funds in 2016, and support all localities to continue to comprehensively improve the rural environment.

  Sixth, a series of relevant technical documents have been issued to guide the implementation of the "Water Ten Articles" in various places, including the Technical Guide for the Preparation of Water Body Standards, and a series of other technical documents.

  At present, this year is 1-mdash; Of the 1,922 monitoring sections with monitoring data in September, 1,351 were above Grade III, accounting for 70.3%, up 4.0 percentage points year-on-year. At the same time, it should also be noted that 166 are inferior to category V, accounting for 8.6% of the total, a year-on-year decrease of 1.2 percentage points. At present, we estimate that this year, as the first complete year of the implementation of the "Water Ten Articles", it should be said that it has achieved a good start, and the annual target set by the "Water Ten Articles" is expected to be completed on the whole.

  Ying Zhao residents further pointed out that although the quality of water environment has been continuously improved through the efforts of the Twelfth Five-Year Plan, there is still a big gap compared with the people’s growing environmental demand. The prevention and control of water pollution is unbalanced, and the phenomenon of ecological destruction in river basins is still relatively common at present. It should be said that non-point source pollution has not been effectively curbed, some tributaries are seriously polluted, some lakes are eutrophic, the carrying capacity of water environment has reached or approached the upper limit, and many rivers and ditches flowing through towns are "black and smelly", which has been strongly reflected by the masses.

  Zhao Yingmin also introduced three characteristics of the national water environment. First, the surface water quality is generally stable and getting better, but some water pollution problems are outstanding. Second, the situation of good water protection is grim. Third, the main pollution factors have differentiated. In the 12th Five-Year Plan, the binding index COD has declined, but the nitrogen and phosphorus are changing. Because the chemical oxygen demand has dropped a lot, relatively speaking, the pollutants that were originally in the second and third places have gradually become prominent pollution problems in some waters.

  He said that the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" clearly put forward the goal and overall thinking by 2020. In the next step, the Ministry of Environmental Protection will insist on improving the quality of water environment as the core, take the implementation of the "Ten Water Articles" as the starting point, and conscientiously implement the tasks specified in the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan". First, adhere to the problem orientation and solve the outstanding water pollution problem that the masses are most concerned about and strongly reflect. "1+2" work priorities. "1" is to pay close attention to the safety of drinking water. "2" starts from both good water and poor water. The so-called good water is a class III or above water body that has not been polluted at present, and protection should be strengthened; Poor water is the so-called "black and smelly" water body, which is inferior to Class V water body, and we should also pay close attention to treatment. The second is to do a good job in source prevention and strictly observe the red line of total space access. The third is to highlight key areas and strengthen governance measures. The fourth is to innovate management methods and improve the management ability of water environment quality. The fifth is to strictly implement the responsibilities of local and enterprises.

  Ying Zhao residents further indicated that the water environment quality in China is improving year by year. It should be said that the improvement of environmental quality is supported by a large number of specific pollution control work. For example, in the past five years, the total discharge of chemical oxygen demand and ammonia nitrogen in China has decreased by 12.9% and 13%, and the daily sewage treatment capacity of cities and towns in China has increased by 57 million tons. Now the sewage treatment capacity of cities and towns in China has reached 182 million tons, making it one of the countries with the largest sewage treatment capacity in the world. There is still a lot of work, which supports the overall improvement of the water environment quality in the country, although the situation is still grim. Environmental protection inspectors found problems, and in some places, some sections of water quality deteriorated and rebounded, but there is no contradiction between the overall improvement of the country and the local deterioration.

  He emphasized that this plan is very clear, and water environment protection should focus on water resources, water environment and water ecology, and the three should be comprehensively considered and treated to implement that "landscape, forest, field and lake are a community of life". In fact, water pollution control is manifested in water, but many problems still come from the shore, so it is necessary to form a systematic whole between water and land. Environmental management should also be managed in accordance with the objective laws of river basins, and refined management should be implemented, so as to implement the requirements of the 13 th Five-Year Plan and realize the protection of water resources, water environment and water ecology.

It is rare for the two countries to openly disagree. Whether to extradite Assange will stir up US-Australia relations.

  [Global Times special correspondent in the United States Zhang Sisi Global Times special correspondent Wang Cong] "Whether Assange can be free is widely regarded as a judgment of the Australian government’s influence on the Biden administration in the United States." The Associated Press reported on July 30th that since the Labor government came to power last year, Australia has been trying to persuade the United States to terminate the prosecution of Assange, the founder of Wikileaks. However, in the recent annual meeting between US Secretary of State Blinken and Australian Foreign Minister Huang Yingxian, Blinken said that Assange was accused of committing a "very serious criminal act".

  The Associated Press reported that Blinken said during the talks that Assange was "suspected to be related to one of the most serious confidential information leaks in American history", and he understood Australia’s concerns and views on this matter, but urged Australia "as a friend, we should understand the concerns of the United States". Blinken also said that Assange’s "alleged acts may cause very serious harm to US national security" or even "life-threatening". Huang Yingxian responded that Australia has "made it clear publicly for many times" and that Assange’s case has been delayed for too long. Australia hopes that the United States can withdraw these allegations and settle the case as soon as possible.

  In addition, the Australian Sydney Morning Herald quoted Huang Yingxian as saying that the United States had "inconsistent" attitudes towards Assange and Chelsea Manning, another protagonist of the "confidential document leak case" and a former American army intelligence analyst. Manning was arrested for leaking about 700,000 confidential military and diplomatic documents to Wikileaks and was sentenced to 35 years in prison in 2013. However, in January 2017, former US President Barack Obama commuted Manning’s sentence before leaving office, which led to her release in May of that year.

  Assange has been detained in the high-security Belmarsh prison in south London since he was arrested by the British government from the Ecuadorian embassy in London in April 2019. In June, 2022, the British Home Secretary, Pruitty Patel, approved the request of the United States to extradite Assange. In July of the same year, Assange appealed the extradition order to the British High Court. According to the relevant laws of the United States, once Assange is extradited to the United States, he will be charged with espionage and improper use of computers in the United States, and he will face a maximum of 175 years in prison.

  According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Blinken’s statement is the "sharpest and most detailed" comment made by Biden administration officials on Assange. Blinken’s remarks mean a "rare public disagreement" between the United States and Australia, and highlight that "the Albanese government faces an arduous task in persuading Biden’s government to stop pursuing Assange". The Guardian reported that Blinken’s defense of the American accusation against Assange would be regarded as "a heavy blow to the efforts of the international community to rescue Assange".

  Assange, 52, was born in Australia and founded the Wikileaks website in 2006. In 2010, Wikileaks exposed a large number of American diplomatic cables and confidential documents of the US military during the Afghanistan War and the Iraq War, and exposed the war crimes of the US military. In 2019, after Assange was arrested in Britain, the United States immediately requested the extradition of Assange. Australian Prime Minister Albanese has repeatedly urged the US government to terminate the lawsuit against Assange. In May this year, Albanese said that he had expressed the Australian government’s position to the American and British governments that there was no benefit in continuing to imprison Assange.

  "Assange’s supporters reacted angrily to Blinken’s remarks." "Australia is the closest ally of the United States, and Blinken needs to understand the overwhelming view of the Australian people, that is, it is fed up with Assange’s endless imprisonment," said Barnes, legal adviser of the Australian Assange supporters organization, according to the Sydney Morning Herald. Assange must be released immediately and be reunited with his family. "

Here comes Gemini, Google’s strongest model! Really multi-modal, pouring all resources and supporting Chinese, GPT4 is no longer unique.

Google’s strongest AI model, which has attracted much attention and is considered by the industry to be the most likely to beat GPT-4, has finally appeared!

On December 6th, US Western Time, Google CEO Sundar Pichai and DeepMind Director Demis Hassabis jointly announced the official launch of Gemini 1.0 in official website.

Gemini is jointly created by several Alphabet teams such as Google Research and DeepMind. As a new powerful multi-modal artificial intelligence model, it can induce, understand, operate and combine different types of information. It can not only process text, images, video and audio, but also complete complex tasks in mathematics, physics and other scientific fields, and can understand and generate high-quality codes in various programming languages.

Pichai described Gemini as "our largest and most powerful AI model to date" and said that it has shown the most advanced performance in many leading benchmarks. "The first generation of Gemini 1.0 was optimized for different sizes, namely: Ultra, Pro and Nano. These are the first models to enter the Gemini era and the first realization of our vision when we established Google DeepMind earlier this year. "

At the Google I/O conference in May this year, Pichai spoiled the news that Google was developing Gemini. It is described as the "Next Generation Multi-modal Intelligent Network", which is designed for API integration. It is said that it has trillions of parameters like GPT-4, but its computing power is five times that of GPT-4, and it can perform more complex and diverse tasks.

To this end, Google also merged its two strongest artificial intelligence laboratories: Google Brain and DeepMind, led by Demis Hassabis, the former CEO of DeepMind, and invested hundreds of millions of dollars in research and development of Gemini.

Even sergey brin, the co-founder of Google, who has resigned for four years, has returned to the office of Mountain View in Silicon Valley to participate in the Gemini decision-making and join the LLM scuffle.

But just last week, The Information quoted people familiar with the matter as saying that Pichai recently silently canceled a series of Gemini public appearances that should have been held in California, new york and Washington, D.C., because it was found to be "unreliable in handling some non-English queries", which cast a gray color on the product launch process.

Perhaps to consolidate market confidence, early this morning, Gemini 1.0 suddenly made its grand debut, appearing in the public’s field of vision and quickly occupying the front pages of major scientific and technological media.

So, what is the strongest artificial intelligence model that Google is betting on the whole army?

Hassabis, head of DeepMind, called Gemini their most flexible model, which can run efficiently on all kinds of devices from data centers to mobile devices.

In order to achieve this extensibility, Gemini 1.0 has designed three versions with different functions and sizes:

Gemini Nano —The most efficient model on the end-side equipment. Designed for smart phones, it can perform efficient AI processing tasks without connecting to an external server. Now it has been integrated into Pixel 8 Pro, which can support the function of "summarizing text" in recording applications and the function of "intelligent reply" in Gboard. Starting with WhatsApp, it will be extended to more applications next year.

Gemini Pro —The best model for various tasks running in Google data center. Support the latest version of the AI chat robot Bard from today. It can respond quickly and understand complex queries, which is the biggest upgrade since Bard was introduced. At present, it provides English services to more than 170 countries and regions, and plans to support new languages and regions in the coming months, and apply them to more Google products such as search, advertising, Chrome and Duet AI.

Gemini Ultra -The largest and most powerful model, dedicated to highly complex tasks, will be provided to developers and enterprise customers early next year after completing the current testing phase. At that time, an updated version of Bard Advanced based on Gemini Ultra will be launched.

In terms of model architecture, Gemini still uses Transformer architecture, adopts an efficient attention mechanism, and supports the context length of 32k.

Google confidently said that after rigorous testing and performance evaluation of the Gemini model, from natural image, audio and video understanding to mathematical reasoning,Among the 32 academic benchmarks widely used in the research and development of large-scale language models, the performance of Gemini Ultra has exceeded the most advanced level represented by ChatGPT at present.. Before the release of Gemini, Google conducted a series of tests to evaluate it with standard industry indicators.

In the MMLU test, the score rate of Gemini Ultra is 90.0%, which is higher than that of GPT-4 (86.4%), making it the first model to surpass the performance of human experts. The MMLU test covers 57 subjects, including mathematics, physics, history, law, medicine and ethics, and aims to evaluate the model’s understanding and problem-solving ability in the global knowledge field.

In Reasoning, Math and Code, except HellaSwag, which lags behind GPT-4 by 87.8%, others include challenging math problems such as multi-step reasoning, algebra/geometry/pre-calculus and so on.

In terms of multimodal capability, Gemini Ultra achieved a SOTA score of 59.4% in the new MMMU benchmark test, which exceeded the 56.8% of the multimodal version GPT-4V of OpenAI. This benchmark test spans many different fields and requires precise reasoning for many tasks.

In the image benchmark test, even without the assistance of Object Character Recognition (OCR) system, the performance of Gemini Ultra is better than all previous models only by analyzing pixel information. In audio testing, the scores of automatic speech recognition and automatic speech translation of Gemini are higher than those of Whisper system connected to GPT-4.

Hassabis said that this highlights the superiority of Gemini’s native multimodal. Up to now, the usual way to create multi-modal models is to train individual components of different modes independently, and then splice them together to try to simulate some functions.

Although such models can sometimes effectively perform specific tasks such as describing pictures, they often perform poorly in more conceptual and complex reasoning.

Gemini was originally designed in a native multi-modal way, and was pre-trained in different modes from the beginning using TPUs v4 and v5e chips designed by Google.. Then it is fine-tuned with more additional multimodal data to improve its performance.

This method enables Gemini to understand and reason all kinds of input content more naturally in the initial stage, and its ability in almost all fields has reached an unprecedented advanced level.

First of all, Gemini has complex multi-modal reasoning ability, which can help to understand complex written and visual information and discover indistinguishable knowledge content in massive data.

For example, it is instructed to filter irrelevant papers through the natural language prompt, or extract key data through reading. With a lunch break, Gemini can help you extract 250 document points from 200,000 papers, and further transform the data into any required chart form. This will greatly help to achieve innovative breakthroughs in science, finance and other fields at a digital speed.

The trained Gemini can obviously recognize and understand text, image and audio data at the same time, better understand subtle information and answer questions related to complex topics. This makes it especially good at explaining reasoning in subjects such as mathematics and physics. In the example, the staff showed that Gemini can check handwriting physical mistakes and explain the correct way.

In order to show the multimodal capabilities of Gemini more intuitively, Brother Chai released a video in X, saying that "the best way to understand the amazing potential capabilities of Gemini is to look at their practical applications".

In the video, Gemini taught the staff the pronunciation of "duck" in Mandarin according to the instructions, and also explained the Chinese tone.

The staff also gave Gemini a demonstration of interaction only in Chinese. By asking about the indoor light in a picture, Gemini is asked to give the orientation of the apartment in use. Gemini answers in Chinese and guesses that the room faces south. Circle a plant in the photo and ask what kind of lighting it needs. gemini then explains the plant species and lighting requirements. The whole process is as smooth as the mother tongue, which shows that Gemini is outstanding in multilingual environment, which is no less than GPT-4.

In addition, Gemini can understand, interpret and generate high-quality codes of the most popular programming languages in the world, such as Python, Java, C++ and Go. The ability to achieve cross-language work and handle complex information makes it one of the world’s leading basic coding models, helping programmers to use the powerful AI model as a collaborative tool to design applications.

For developers, starting from December 13th, Gemini Pro can be obtained through the Gemini API in Google AI Studio or Google Cloud Vertex AI. Android developers can also use Gemini Nano, the most efficient model for end-to-end tasks, through AICore.

Looking back on the development of Google’s big model all the way, compared with the continuous and rapid update of OpenAI’s "Wang Fried", Microsoft always seems to be one step behind when it integrates various AI functions of GPT into core products and pushes them to customers. When Bard, a chat robot, was released in February this year, it got off to a bad start, and the market value evaporated by 100 billion dollars overnight with a factual error. Benchmarking Microsoft Copilot’s Duet AI work suite, the market response was moderate, and the financial performance of cloud services also lost to Microsoft.

Especially after the internal friction caused by the reorganization of Brain and DeepMind teams and the loss of senior talents to OpenAI, Google’s AI battle is even more exhausted.

However, this is, after all, an AI pioneer who contributed to Transformer’s pioneering masterpiece Attention is all you need and the landmark artificial intelligence program AlphaGo, and inspired the subsequent development of many large models including ChatGPT. No matter from the technical genes, training data, capital and infrastructure, it should have one of the best strengths.

The release of Gemini is regarded by Google as the most critical technological innovation in the past decade. Can it make Google rally, beat OpenAI and regain the throne of the big model stadium?

Will the AI competition pattern be reshaped after Genmini Ultra comes out next year?

And, has everyone tried the new Google Bard? How do you feel?

Global news: US stocks fell for three consecutive days, the Dow fell below the 50-day moving average, and US bond yields soared, which continued to put pressure on the market.

  On Thursday, local time, with the soaring yield of 10-year US bonds and the "assistance" of the yield of 10-year British bonds, the risk appetite of market investors continued to be suppressed. The three major indexes of US stocks recorded a three-day losing streak. After the S&P 500 index, the Dow also fell below the 50-year moving average, which is usually regarded as a signal of a short-term downward trend.

  It should be noted that the American Association of Individual Investors released the latest market sentiment survey report on Thursday, and the bullish enthusiasm of American retail investors in the next six months has plummeted, directly from 44.7% to 35.9%, breaking the state of being better than the historical average in the past 10 weeks. It is enough to show that current investors are not optimistic about the future trend of the market.

  The relatively vague monetary policy direction of the Federal Reserve has played a great role. According to the latest calendar of the Federal Reserve in official website, Powell will deliver a speech at the annual meeting of Jackson Hole Central Bank on August 25th, local time. If you have memories, you should remember last year’s "nine minutes of darkness". Powell’s speech directly caused the S&P 500 index to plummet by 3%, and then it went from 4,200 to below 3,500 in the next two months.

  The market may be worried that Powell’s speech this year may still cause market turmoil before inflation is completely tamed, and monetary policy may continue to be tightened during the year. At present, according to the observation tool of CME Federal Reserve, the probability of raising interest rates again at the end of the year has risen to over 30%, while the hope of lowering interest rates is slim, which was originally the biggest catalyst in the market.

  In other important news, on Thursday (August 17th), local time, the latest report released by market research company Counterpoint Research showed that global smartphone shipments will drop by 6% to 1.15 billion units this year. If it is finally true, it will be the lowest level in ten years.

  North America is still the main drag on the global recovery, and the disappointing performance in the first half of the year may bring the year-on-year decline of shipments in this region to double digits. However, the high-end market still maintains some flexibility. The report pointed out that Apple will therefore be in a favorable position, and the company will usher in an important product upgrade in the second half of this year, which may make it perform strongly before the end of this year.

  In addition, on Thursday night, Beijing time, Musk, the world’s richest man, announced his arrival in Japan on the social media platform, but did not disclose the itinerary. A sudden visit to Japan has caused a lot of discussion in the market. The important daily activities of his social media platform X come from Japan, with a population of only one-third of that of the United States, but the daily activities are comparable to those of the United States.

  Musk’s team is still frantically seizing the satellite Internet business in low-earth orbit. Japanese Defense Minister Yasukazu Hamada has previously confirmed that the Japanese Self-Defense Force has started testing this equipment since March this year.

  It is worth mentioning that on the occasion of Musk’s visit to Japan, when Tesla’s redesigned Model 3 was exposed to mass production, did this trip take a fancy to the potential of the Japanese electric vehicle market? The share of electric vehicles in the Japanese market has just exceeded 2%, and the best-selling Mini-EV is Nissan SAKURA, which sold 33,000 vehicles in the whole fiscal year of 2022. Tesla and () are regarded as luxury brands.

  Powell will deliver a speech at Jackson Hole’s annual meeting next week.

  The Federal Reserve also quietly updated official website’s calendar after the close, showing that Powell will deliver the annual meeting speech of Jackson Hole at 10: 05 local time on August 25th. Investors should still remember clearly that on August 26th last year, with Powell’s famous "9-minute speech", not only did the S&P 500 index drop by 3% that day, but in the next two months, it even fell from 4,200 to 3,500.

  US retail investors’ bullish enthusiasm plummeted

  The American Association of Individual Investors also released the latest market sentiment survey report on Thursday. The bullish enthusiasm of American retail investors in the next six months has "dived down", directly dropping from 44.7% to 35.9%, breaking the state of being better than the historical average in the past 10 weeks.

  Fed officials are increasingly wary of the stock market’s rise.

  According to the latest minutes of the Fed meeting, Fed staff pointed out at the FOMC policy meeting in July that stock prices generally rose, corporate bond spreads narrowed, asset valuation pressure was "significant", and the risk assessment in May was "moderate"; Also named residential and commercial real estate prices, calling them "relatively high in terms of fundamentals".

  Research report: global mobile phone shipments may fall to a 10-year low, and Apple is expected to go against the trend.

  The latest report released by Counterpoint Research, a market research company, shows that global smartphone shipments are expected to hit the worst year in a decade in 2023. Despite the overall decline in smartphone shipments, the high-end market still maintains a certain degree of flexibility. The report pointed out that Apple will therefore be in a favorable position, and the company will usher in an important product upgrade in the second half of this year, which may make it perform strongly before the end of this year.

  After energy and food, the signs of sticky inflation in the United States reappear, and the price of used cars rose for the first time in four months.

  According to statistics, the wholesale data of used cars in the first half of August in the United States rose for the first time in four months, and the market is worried. This is another sign that inflation may be stuck for a long time after the rebound of energy and food prices.

  The global bond market selling added fuel to the fire, and the demand for Japanese bond auctions was the worst since 1987.

  The auction results of 20-year Japanese bonds on Thursday may show that investors are increasingly betting that the Bank of Japan will soon relax the easing policy YCC to control the yield curve. As the global sovereign bond yield has reached a 15-year high, the rising Japanese bond yield threatens global bonds.

  Tesla’s revised Model 3 may start mass production in Shanghai as early as next month. This electric car faucet is in the final stage of the production of the demonstration car, and the vehicle will be transported to the Tesla exhibition hall later this month. Large-scale production will follow closely, starting in September at the earliest. These people familiar with the matter added that Tesla will also increase production during the National Day holiday.

  One of the people familiar with the matter said that the revised Model 3 has been changed in terms of design and interior parts, making it more fashionable. He added that in the case of full production, its cost will be lower than the current version of Model 3, or as low as 200,000 yuan.

  Musk suddenly announced his arrival in Japan. What is he going to do?

  On Thursday night, Beijing time, Musk, the world’s richest man, announced on his social media platform X that he had arrived in Japan. In view of his extreme love of showing himself on the Internet, this totally unexpected trip triggered a hot discussion among netizens: What is he doing in Japan?

  The important daily activities of Musk’s social media platform X come from Japan, with a population of only one-third of that of the United States, but the daily activities are comparable to those of the United States. Musk’s team is still frantically seizing the satellite Internet business in low-earth orbit.

The name of this 1-minute-long advertisement is Crush! )。Roughly speaking, the things "crushed" by Apple are trumpet, paint bucket, guitar, piano, phonograph, statue, drum set, camera, arcade, monitor, plastic doll and so on.

Although the creativity of this advertisement is not difficult to understand: Apple has "pressed" a large number of functions into this thin and powerful tablet, and can do professional artistic creations such as painting, arranging music, taking photos and retouching pictures.

But the problem is that, as a consumer electronic product targeted at professional users, this advertisement has crushed all the creators’ "eating guys". This strange negative emotion has finally changed from the angry condemnation of a small group of professionals to a storm of public opinion.

Some netizens ridiculed that,It’s really good for Apple to attract professional creators by smashing symbols of human creativity and cultural achievements..


Some netizens criticized thatThis is a heartbreaking, uncomfortable and selfish advertisement..

Hugh Grant, a famous actor, even commented that the advertisement seemed to promote "the destruction of human experience".

Fifteen cross-border e-commerce emerging platforms you should know.

Fifteen cross-border e-commerce emerging platforms you should know.

When it comes to cross-border export platforms, I believe most people will blurt out AliExpress, Amazon, eBay and wish. Of course, they are indeed very important cross-border e-commerce platforms, but they are not just these cross-border e-commerce platforms. In fact, every cross-border e-commerce platform has its own industry advantages and loyal customer base, or has important or special influence in a certain country or region. For cross-border e-commerce, online channel diversification is an important way to expand network channels and scale. In addition, for some specific products and brands, it is also an important e-commerce strategy to select the target market for deep-rooted work. Then it is natural to use the local important targeted e-commerce platform. Below, Xiaobian summarizes the following fifteen emerging platforms for cross-border e-commerce from the network.

First, Souq

Souq.com, an Amazon e-commerce website in the Middle East. It has 6 million users and can reach 10 million independent visits every month. According to the current situation of the website, Souq has begun to consider expanding other businesses. For example, Souq has established its own logistics system QExpress and payment system PayFort. Moreover, Souq also launched its own brand of tablet computers. It is understood that Souq.com, Cobone.com and Sukar.com are the three largest local e-commerce websites in the Middle East.

It is understood that the UAE people are keen on surfing the Internet and playing mobile phones, and their Internet penetration rate and mobile phone holding rate have reached more than 70%. Not only the United Arab Emirates, but also people from rich Gulf countries such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar are keen on shopping online. It is expected that the scale of online shopping in the whole Middle East will increase rapidly in the next two or three years. About 5 out of 10 people in UAE buy goods and services through the Internet. It is expected that the e-commerce market in UAE will reach 10 billion US dollars in 2018.

Second, Lazada (Lai Zanda)

It is known as the largest online shopping mall in Southeast Asia. It is a company founded by Rocket Internet to build "Amazon in Southeast Asia". In April this year, it was invested and controlled by Ali for $1 billion. Sales of electronic products, clothes, appliances, books, cosmetics, etc., the market covers Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. The company provides free delivery, free return within 14 days, and flexible payment methods. The growth rate of Internet penetration in Singapore, Malaysia and Vietnam has exceeded the world average.

By 2020, the e-commerce market in Southeast Asia will reach $20.4 billion. The sustained and rapid economic growth in Southeast Asia has cultivated a large number of middle classes and huge consumer demand. Southeast Asia is another most dynamic and potential consumer market after the United States, the European Union and China. This makes the big e-commerce companies in various countries salivate and want to get it quickly. Therefore, Southeast Asia is the main battlefield for major e-commerce companies at present.

Third, Newegg (new egg)

Newegg was founded in 2001, with its headquarters in Los Angeles, Southern California. Newegg is the leading online supermarket for computer, consumer electronics and communication products in the United States. Newegg gathers about 4,000 sellers and more than 25 million customers. At first, IT sold consumer electronic products and IT products, but now it has expanded to all categories, with 55,000 varieties. Attracting wealthy and internet-savvy men aged 18 to 35. The best-selling categories are automobile supplies, sporting goods and office supplies. It is particularly noteworthy that most consumers are men, but female consumers are also growing rapidly.

Fourth, Rakuten.com (Lotte)

Founded in 1997, it has become the largest e-commerce website in Japan, with a market value of $13.5 billion and an annual revenue of over $4 billion. Lotte is also one of the largest internet companies in the world. In the US market, Lotte spent $250 million to acquire Buy.com, and in 2013, the company changed its name to "Rakuten.com Shopping". Lotte Shopping has gathered 3,000 sellers, more than 80 million customers and 23 million products. The customer base is between 25 and 54, with 50% men and 50% women. Rakuten.com originally specialized in computer and electronic products, but now it provides sporting goods, health and beauty, home and gardening, jewelry and toys.

"Beating Amazon" is the ambitious ambition of Hiroshi Mikitani, the founder of Lotte in Japan. Because the penetration in Japan’s domestic market has reached saturation, it has become difficult to attract more consumers in Japan, and internationalization is the inevitable choice for Lotte to achieve this goal. In recent years, Lotte’s overseas market moves frequently, with its all-round layout in terms of logistics, payment, channels and investment, and its sphere of influence covers Asia, Europe and America. Therefore, for cross-border e-commerce and brand owners, Lotte is an online hypermarket that cannot be ignored.

Five, Bestbuy (Best Buy)

The failure of Best Buy’s online physical store made it enter the online market in 2011. Gathered more than 100 sellers. There are 1 billion visits every year. Different from other e-commerce platforms, only invited sellers can stay in the platform and products can appear in Best Buy stores for sale. But the products are only limited to consumer electronic products.

Sixth, Tesco

Britain’s largest food and groceries retailer. Its e-commerce website was established in 2012, gathering more than 50 sellers, 43 million club card members and 4 million visits per month. The huge offline customer base is being transferred to online. Competitors include Amazon, eBay and Lotte Play.com. Products include home and gardening, baby products, sports and leisure, clothing and jewelry. Only open to invited sellers.

Britain is the largest e-commerce market in Europe, and four of the Top10 European e-retailers are in the UK. At the same time, Britain is one of the largest cross-border e-commerce exporters in the world. In 2013, online retail in the UK was 91 billion pounds (about 148.78 billion US dollars), up 16% year-on-year. Online retailing in the UK will increase by 17% in 2014, reaching 107 billion pounds (about 174.98 billion US dollars).

Seven, Lotte Play.com

Founded in 1998, it is one of the largest online entertainment retailers in the UK. Gather more than 3000 sellers and 15 million customers. Originally selling games and media products, but now it has developed into multiple categories. It is the only e-commerce platform that allows retailers to customize their own storefronts, making it the third largest online market in Britain after Amazon and eBay.

Eight, La Redoute (Shangri-La Fu)

Founded in 2010, it is the leading online retailer in France and the third largest e-commerce market in Europe. Gather more than 1,000 vendors and 10 million customers. Covering 26 countries. Shangri-La Welfare is mainly aimed at women aged between 26 and 35. Its product categories include men’s and women’s wear, underwear, shoes and accessories, furniture, crafts and so on. But don’t sell second-hand products.

MercadoLivre (Mercado Network)

The largest C2C platform in Brazil is equivalent to Taobao in China. Making good use of this platform is conducive to understanding various market information such as Brazil’s price index, consumption trends and payment habits. Gathered more than 52,000 sellers and 50.2 million registered users. The number of visitors ranks among the TOP50 in the world. It covers 13 countries and regions (Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Mexico, Panama, Peru, Dominica, Paraguay, Venezuela and Portugal). In addition to the electronic trading platform, there is also the largest payment platform similar to Alipay in South America. As a result, countries such as Mexico and Argentina have no localized websites. At first, it was just an auction website, but today, it is mainly an online sales platform. Considering the rapidly increasing Internet penetration rate, MercardoLivre can provide sellers with a huge potential market opportunity in South America.

X. Trade Me

It is the largest online trading market in New Zealand with more than 3.1 million members. 1.4 billion web pages are displayed every month. New and second-hand store categories include baby products, books, clothing, computers and household goods. Originally a second-hand auction market, it was a replica of the early ebay, but now it sells new products just like the new ebay.

XI. Ozon

It is the largest e-commerce platform in Russia and currently accounts for 20% of the Russian e-commerce market. The goal in the next decade is to gain 80% market share of Russian e-commerce. As we all know, the early days of Taobao in China were full of opportunities, and many Taobao brands stood out. Today’s Ozon, just like Taobao in those days, I wonder how many China sellers have settled in the sub-platform? The more important local e-commerce platforms in Russia include Lamoda, Wildberries, KupiVIP (all fashions), Ulmart and Svyaznoy (consumer electronic products).

XII. Otto (Otto Group)

The leading provider of e-commerce solutions and services from Germany ranks second only to Amazon in the global comprehensive B2C ranking, and is also the world’s largest online clothing, apparel and daily necessities retail channel provider. Its online shop sells millions of kinds of goods. The products sold cover men’s and women’s clothing, household appliances, household goods, sports equipment, computers, video games and so on. Range of brands is widely sold, and basically all brands that can be seen in the market can be found in OTTO’s online shop. In addition, OTTO has its own brand, which is very cost-effective.

It is understood that clothing is by far the most important category. Women spend 25.8 billion euros (men 22.5 billion) online, which is the main source of online income. This may be related to family shopping. 53.4% of online shoppers are women. Two-thirds of online retailing in Germany is through third-party platforms ebay and Amazon, with few independent websites. Followed by multi-channel retailers. Clothing (11.6 billion), books (5.3 billion) and electronic products (4 billion) are the three most popular categories. The above-mentioned 39.1 billion euros do not include digital products. Online retail sales of digital products (such as air tickets and event tickets) totaled 10.6 billion euros, an increase of 9.3%. Germany is the country with the most popular online sales in the world. Although the number of online consumers in China is huge, it only accounts for 19% of the total population. And Germany is as high as 61%! , more than 60% in the United States. The importance of e-commerce and digital advertising in this country is beyond doubt.

XIII. Jumia

It is the largest e-commerce retail company in Nigeria, a big African country, and its goal is to build a local "Amazon" to sell electronic products, clothing, refrigerators and other commodities. Nigeria has a population of about 160 million, but there are few e-commerce websites and the number of physical supermarkets and shopping malls is extremely limited, which provides a huge potential market for e-commerce companies. The number of Internet users in Nigeria has reached more than 40 million, and it is growing rapidly. Meanwhile, the demand for online shopping in Nigeria is increasing. In recent years, various e-commerce websites have sprung up in Nigeria, including food, drinks, real estate, tourism and mobile phone transfer services. The competition pattern of e-commerce dominated by Jumia, Konga and Dealdey is taking shape, and the "African version of Ctrip" Hotels.ng is also rapidly seizing the online travel market.

Xiv. Gmarket

Gmarket is the largest comprehensive shopping website in Korea, ranking first in the total sales value of goods in the online retail market in Korea, mainly selling books, MP3 players, cosmetics, computers, home appliances and clothes. On May 7th, 2010, ebay announced that it would set up a joint venture company in Gmarket, a Korean e-commerce company, with ebay contributing 10 million US dollars. The joint venture company will help Gmarket explore the Japanese and Singapore markets.

15. Sears (Sears)

Sears is the third largest merchant retailer in the United States, and the top 500 Internet retailers rank eighth. Gather more than 10,000 sellers and as many as 110 million products. It provides self-management, big sellers and various marketing modes in advertising alliance. Categories include electronic products, household goods, outdoor life, tools, fitness, toys and so on. The most popular categories are lawn and garden.

Xiao Bian feels that it is not that the biggest platform has the best effect, but to choose a platform suitable for your own market segments and products. Sometimes, it is often those local platforms that you have never known that get twice the result with half the effort!

Did the liver eat "fat"? Dietotherapy is the best way to reduce one porridge, one soup and one tea.

  Photo: @ vision china Health Youyue Studio produced.

  Fatty liver is becoming more and more common, and medical research suggests that it is closely related to diet. So, is there any way to "eat back" the "fat" liver that has been eaten?

  "Yes!" Chen Zexiong, a famous Chinese medicine practitioner in Guangdong Province, pointed out that proper diet can really help the liver "slim down", which is also the treatment to eliminate the cause of fatty liver. However, people with "fat" liver should eat according to syndrome differentiation, and even cooking oil is particular.

  Fatty liver is mostly physical examination, and it is found that 30% to 40% is due to obesity.

  Two days ago, an old acquaintance and classmate came to Sun Baoguo’s clinic. She was blessed and anxious. It turned out that the old classmate was found to have fatty liver in the physical examination of the unit. "I heard that it might be cirrhosis and liver cancer, which scared me to worry about what to eat and drink!" The old classmate said.

  There are quite a few such cases. Most patients with fatty liver only find problems during physical examination.

  This is because most of mild fatty liver has no obvious symptoms, or only a sense of fatigue, which is easy to be ignored. However, if it develops into moderate to severe fatty liver, there will be loss of appetite, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, weight loss, right hypochondriac or right upper abdominal pain. Moreover, if the treatment of simple fatty liver is neglected, it can develop into steatohepatitis and cirrhosis for a long time.

  Fatty liver, as its name implies, is the excessive accumulation of fat in the liver. Medicine believes that it can be caused by many causes and diseases, mainly related to obesity, diabetes, alcoholism and so on. According to relevant literature reports, simple obesity accounts for 30%~40% of the causes of fatty liver, and many patients with fatty liver have high-fat and high-cholesterol diets, which suggests that the formation of fatty liver is closely related to diet, and diet may be the direct cause of disease in the general population.  

  Dietotherapy can eliminate the cause of fatty liver

  Finding and eliminating the cause is the fundamental method to treat fatty liver, such as adjusting diet structure, losing weight, abstaining from alcohol and treating the primary disease.

  Professor Chen Zexiong pointed out that a reasonable diet is of great significance to the prevention and treatment of fatty liver, especially for patients with simple fatty liver, most of them can be recovered through reasonable diet and exercise. Therefore, if you have fatty liver, don’t be afraid and worried. It is better to actively try diet therapy and "eat back" the problems you have eaten.

  Then how to treat fatty liver?

  Traditional Chinese medicine believes that this disease is caused by improper drinking and eating, invasion of human body by dampness, emotional disorder, or chronic illness and physical weakness, which leads to poor qi movement, and the combination of dampness, phlegm and blood stasis, which is blocked in the blood vessels and meridians of the liver. Therefore, regulating qi-flowing, eliminating phlegm-dampness, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and clearing the liver and gallbladder are the main methods for treating this disease in traditional Chinese medicine. The choice of daily diet for patients with fatty liver should also follow this principle. While paying attention to the color, smell and taste of food, try to choose foods that meet the actual needs of individuals.

  List of foods to help the liver "lose weight"

  Foods with fatty liver preventing and treating effects and nutrition metabolism improving effects;

  Patients with fatty liver who are uncomfortable with the right hypochondriac rib (that is, the right chest from the armpit to the sternum) and easy to get angry can eat more vegetables, chrysanthemum, tomatoes, shepherd’s purse, etc., which can clear away heat and cool the liver;

  Patients with bad breath, constipation and fatty liver who overeat greasy food can eat more vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins and cellulose, such as radish, bamboo shoots, wax gourd, loofah, celery, cucumber, water chestnut and hawthorn fruit, which can clear away heat, promote bowel movement and facilitate urination;

  Fatty liver patients with physical weakness can choose low-fat and high-protein foods such as pork lean meat, pigeon meat, rabbit meat, beef lean meat, skim milk, soybean milk, etc., which can tonify liver and kidney, replenish qi and nourish blood.

  Food unsuitable for patients with fatty liver:

  Pig fat, goose, duck eggs, animal oil, animal viscera and animal brain have high fat content; Crab, crab roe, squid, cuttlefish, clam meat and anchovies are high in cholesterol, so it is advisable to eat less or not. Because sugar will turn into fat in the body, which will aggravate fatty liver, it is better to eat less high-sugar foods such as litchi, longan pulp, candied fruit, preserved fruit and sugar.

  Selection of staple food and oil:

  It is suggested that fatty liver patients should choose vegetable oils such as vegetable oil, sesame oil, cottonseed oil and peanut oil, because they contain more unsaturated fatty acids and have the effect of lowering blood cholesterol. The staple food can be low-sugar foods such as corn flour, buckwheat flour, oat flour, bean flour and other products. These foods are coarse grains, which can reduce qi and broaden the intestines and cleanse the greasy stomach.

  One porridge, one soup and one tea are most suitable for liver "fat"

  Patients with fatty liver in daily life can also choose medicated diet for conditioning:

  Hawthorn Carassius auratus soup: Take 30g of raw hawthorn, one crucian carp, 10g of immature bitter orange, appropriate amount of ginger and water, and drink the soup after cooking. Regular administration of this decoction can promote blood circulation and qi circulation, and has a certain effect on hypochondriac swelling pain or acupuncture-like pain, or hepatomegaly and purple tongue.

  Pueraria flower tea: 15g of Pueraria flower, 10g of Salvia miltiorrhiza, 4-5 tablets of Ilex kudingcha, appropriate amount of water, boiling and simmering for 30min, and taking the juice as tea. Used for long-term alcoholism and mutual stagnation of dampness and blood stasis.

  Special reminder that dietotherapy doesn’t work, hurry up with medication.

  Experts pointed out that while adjusting the diet structure, patients with fatty liver should also take appropriate exercise to keep their mood comfortable, which is helpful for the treatment of fatty liver.
