　　On September 16, at 5 pm, Master Zhang got off work. Sitting in his car, he opened a certain online car-hailing software, and he changed from a corporate employee to an online car-hailing driver. "After get off work every day, I go home early and I am idle. It is better to drive an online car-hailing car and earn some gas money," Master Zhang told reporters.

　　At around 8 pm, Master Zhang finished work and went home. "I just treat it as a side job. If I feel tired one day, I will go home directly after get off work."

　　Nowadays, more and more office workers like Master Zhang have started to take "odd jobs", and even many people have started to take "odd jobs" full-time. Online ride-hailing drivers, delivery riders, chauffeurs… There are more and more flexible employment people, and the "gig economy" is quietly emerging.

　　From "gig jobs" to "gig economy"

　　Speaking of "odd jobs", Old Li, who is in his 60s, suddenly thinks of his father. "My father has a formal job, but after get off work, he always goes to some factories and shops to do some manual work to earn some extra money and support the family." Old Li has four brothers and sisters. In that era, it was not easy for his father to support the family.

　　Old Li’s father’s experience should be known to some elderly people, especially the "post-50s" and "post-60s". Even if they have not experienced it personally, many of their relatives and friends have had similar experiences.

　　In the late 1970s, along with the reform and opening up, township enterprises in the southeast coastal areas sprang up, but they lacked both technology and equipment.

　　As a result, the government and companies hire engineers from local retired skilled workers or factories and research institutes in cities like Shanghai, Nanjing and Suzhou to solve technical problems and improve product quality. These people are called "Sunday engineers." "They usually work in their respective positions and use weekends to go to township enterprises part-time to help enterprises overcome difficulties," said Jin Ge, a researcher at Peking University.

　　The economy is developing rapidly, and "odd jobs" are becoming more and more common. "Although some enterprises or factories have a lot of demand for employment, due to the lack of advanced information technology, they cannot match in time," Jin Ge said.

　　This mismatch between supply and demand was gradually broken by the birth and development of the Internet, and began to develop towards the "gig economy".

　　The "gig economy" refers to a short-term, flexible form of work that is different from the traditional "9-to-5", using the Internet and mobile technology to quickly match supply and demand.

　　Yan Fei, associate professor of sociology at Tsinghua University’s School of Social Sciences, pointed out that the most important feature of the "gig economy" is its dependence on Internet technology, and its work content has been greatly expanded, including manual labor such as takeout and express delivery, as well as remote business and delivery work through online platforms, such as professional services for online legal and financial consulting, creative and multimedia services, online marketing support, software and technology development, writing and translation.

　　At the end of last year, the "Development Status, Social Impact and Policy Recommendations of the Gig Economy in the Internet Era" released by the Institute of Economics of the School of Social Sciences of Tsinghua University showed that the "gig economy" is increasingly becoming an important force to promote "new employment forms" and a new growth point to promote high-quality development of the national economy. In 2019, China’s "gig economy" contributed 10.43% to the total GDP increase. It is expected that by 2035, this proportion will increase to 13.26%, accounting for 6.82% of GDP.

　　The new form of the "gig economy" is sweeping the world. Data show that in the United States and Europe, 10% to 15% of the working-age population make a living through "gig work", and another 10% to 15% use "gig work" as a side job outside their main job. The actual number of participants exceeds 160 million.

　　"A hobby can also bring a lot of benefits"

　　The traditional "gig job" model uses the "enterprise-employee" model, where companies provide positions and individuals apply for positions. After all, individuals are still part of the company. The "gig economy" has changed this model and transformed it into a "platform-individual" model. The platform provides employment needs and individuals make choices. This is an upgrade of the traditional model. It is not only companies that can publish their needs on the platform, but also individuals.

　　Taking online car-hailing as an example, individuals need to use a car, post their car needs on the online car-hailing platform, and the online car-hailing driver grabs the order to meet the customer’s car needs. Customers pay the fare, which can be regarded as compensation. Couriers, takeaway riders, and chauffeurs all adopt this new model.

　　"The platform has become a medium for the connection between the labor provider and the demand side in the’gig economy ‘, enabling the rapid matching of supply and demand." Zhang Xiaheng, an associate professor at the business school of Northwestern University of Political Science and Law, believes that this is an important reason why a large number of workers with supply capacity, working hours and skills prefer to take "gig jobs".

　　Xiao Yang is a programmer who loves photography and often takes pictures with his camera around in his spare time. When he takes good-looking photos, Xiao Yang will upload them to some commercial photo websites. Every time the pictures are downloaded, he can get a corresponding share, and he can earn hundreds of yuan a month by taking pictures.

　　Not only that, with the improvement of technology, Xiao Yang has gained some fame. Some commercial shooting activities will also find him as a full-time photographer, with compensation ranging from a few hundred yuan to thousands of yuan each time. "I really didn’t expect that a hobby can bring me a lot of income!" Xiao Yang said with a smile.

　　This is the charm of the "gig economy". Pay is settled in real time and strictly follows the principle of more work and more pay. For example, Xiao Yang, the more times his photos are downloaded, the higher his income; the longer he participates in commercial shooting activities and the more films are produced, the higher the fee paid to him. "Many young people now rely on’gig work ‘to earn more income than their own jobs," Jin Ge said.

　　Relative freedom of time, no fixed location, and self-determination of content are also characteristics of the "gig economy". Another feature is a distinct feature of the Internet – customer reviews. Those "gig economy" workers with more high-quality reviews can reap more opportunities and higher incomes.

　　Based on this, more and more young people are joining the ranks of "gig economy" workers. The hot "slash youth" in the past few years is the prelude to the "gig economy". Young people are no longer satisfied with only one job and only one identity. Some young people who have spare time and time will try more careers according to their abilities and interests.

　　Yan Fei said that as an emerging economic model, the "gig economy" has broken through the limitations of the traditional economic model in time and space, reduced the cost of market information transmission, provided employment opportunities for more workers, and provided strong support for the orderly operation of the economy and society.

　　Strengthen the protection of practitioners

　　Xiao Wang is an illustrator who is a freelancer and uses an order-based cooperation model. "If I have inspiration during this time, I will take a few more orders. If I feel tired, I will contact less. It mainly depends on my mood." Xiao Wang said.

　　Flexible working hours make Xiao Wang happy, but he also faces some problems, the biggest of which is social security.

　　With the further development of the "gig economy", many people may choose to give up their main occupation and start full-time "gig work". This phenomenon is becoming more and more common in industries such as online ride-hailing, food delivery, live broadcast, etc. Other freelance jobs will also have more full-time gig workers in the future. How to protect the pension insurance, medical insurance and labor rights of these practitioners needs to be solved urgently.

　　According to data released by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, the number of flexible employment practitioners in China is about 200 million, and a considerable number of them are "gig economy" practitioners. According to relevant agencies, by 2036, the number of "gig economy" workers will reach 400 million.

　　Since last year, food delivery riders have attracted great attention from the society due to their high-intensity work and low level of security. Many people have begun to reflect and call for strengthening the protection of labor rights and interests of new business practitioners, including the "gig economy".

　　To this end, in July this year, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and other 8 departments issued the "Guiding Opinions on Safeguarding the Labor Security Rights and Interests of Workers in New Employment Forms", which clearly "urges enterprises to participate in social insurance according to law. Enterprises should guide and support workers in new employment forms who do not fully meet the conditions of establishing labor relations to participate in corresponding social insurance according to their own circumstances"; 7 departments, including the State Regulation for Market Regulation, issued the "Guiding Opinions on Implementing the Responsibilities of Online Catering Platforms and Effectively Safeguarding the Rights and Interests of Takeaway Meal Delivery Workers", urging the platform to participate in social insurance for takeaway food deliverymen who have established labor relations

　　"If these’gig economy ‘workers are not included in the social security system, it will exacerbate the risks associated with population aging." Jin Ge said that only by participating in social security can the worries of new business practitioners be effectively alleviated, and the overall consumption structure and population structure of society can be expected to be optimized.

　　The supervision of platforms and enterprises should also be in place to prevent the occurrence of "policies above and countermeasures below". In this regard, Zhang Xiaheng suggested that relevant departments should increase the punishment of violations of laws and regulations through regular or irregular sampling and verification, improve the "gig economy" platform and the employment environment of enterprises, and effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of practitioners.

　　In addition, many experts suggest that the construction of commercial insurance, especially commercial endowment insurance, should be accelerated. In May this year, the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission issued a notice to launch a pilot of exclusive commercial endowment insurance, starting from June 1 in Zhejiang and Chongqing. It is understood that exclusive commercial endowment insurance will be more flexible in terms of payment and welfare, which will be more in line with the actual situation of flexible employment, which will provide more choices for practitioners of the "gig economy".

The golden segment of the TV series ＂Wind Chaser＂ ranks first： Confucianism is rising, Wanda is speeding up

Author | reed notes

Chaoyang, the first transparent blue screen window

Unbearable to look back, go to the foreign market

So…

A low and tactful pingtan sounded in his ears, and the focus of his eyes followed the protagonist. Before he woke up, he got up first, pressed his messy hair in the mirror, grabbed the washbasin and ran downstairs to wash up, carefully avoiding the landlord Aunt Zhou who "offended" yesterday because of stock trading. Rushing back to the room to put on socks, he found a hole, stuffed it in, bent down and took out his old leather shoes to polish, put on a gray scarf with a fluffing ball, and opened the door. Aunt Zhou stood outside the door…

This is a less than 2-minute scene in the first episode of "Wind Chaser", where the protagonist Wei Ruolai is preparing for an interview at the central bank. Director Yao Xiaofeng spent three days shooting more than 20 shots, and quickly outlined the protagonist’s character at the beginning, setting the tone for the little person’s growth in the times.

It is such rich details and skillful control of the camera that make this financial-cut drama of the Republic of China appear in the circle with "texture" on the first day of broadcast. The true and delicate tone of the screen, the comparison of the fireworks on Qibao Street with the setting of the "Shili Yangchang" in Greater Shanghai, and the ingenious editing of the intersection of the exchange and the fierce gunfight between the streets have become the topic of hot discussion among netizens.

The integration of "movie + TV series" and the strong word-of-mouth trend have helped "Wind Chaser" become the most popular drama in iQIYI’s premiere this year and the fastest to break 8000. At present, the popularity has broken 9,000, and the volume has broken 100 million in 4 days. The audience ratings broadcast on the central eight are also rising. Data show that "Wind Chaser" went LIVE the next day and became the first audience rating in prime time, and achieved a peak of 2 yesterday.

The creators revealed in interviews that the creation of "The Wind Chaser" took six years and the process was extremely difficult. The entry of Chen Zhixi and Ruyi Film, and the addition of the creators led by Wang Yibo, became the key to the turnaround of this drama.

It is worth noting that two companies, Ruyi Film and Wanda Film and Television, have appeared among the co-producers of "The Wind Chaser".

In January this year, Chen Zhixi became the chairperson and president of Wanda Film. At that time, Entertainment Das Kapital found that the new Wanda, which was blessed by Confucianism, had the stability of upstream production from the layout of the four films in the Spring Festival. In the past two months, Confucianism has launched two major dramas "Prosecutor and Youth" and "Confession in the Night", which also indicates that Confucianism’s strong content genes and rich industry resources will empower and speed up Wanda’s TV drama business.

In the future, the new combination of Ruyi + Wanda will continue to enhance the quality of Chinese dramas, create high-quality dramas, and maintain a high yield as usual, becoming a leader in the dual channel of film and drama.

How is the textured "Wind Chaser" made?

When "Wind Chaser" was still called "The Long Wind Breaks the Waves," a video of "director Yao Xiaofeng choking up before speaking" was posted online. It was the scene of the media watching the film in advance. Behind this emotion is the difficult and tortuous creative process of the show for six years.

In 2018, Yao Xiaofeng saw the script of "Wind Chaser", and the unique perspective of "Finance + the Republic of China" aroused his creative desire. After that, the creators found actors and teams, and by the end of 2019, they had all the preparations ready to start, but they had no choice but to encounter the epidemic, and the project had to be put on hold. "The middle has always been thinking about it, and I want to have the opportunity to take it out," but it will not usher in a new "turnaround" until 2022.

To calm down his good mood, Yao Xiaofeng thanked the three women on the stage: Zhang Shuwei, the chief producer who has been accompanying the growth of the project, Dai Ying, the senior vice president of iQIYI, who gave the series the opportunity to meet the audience, and Chen Zhixi, who "gave the greatest support when he was in trouble and confused."

The "turnaround" and Chen Zhixi’s "support" mentioned by Yao Xiaofeng not only refer to the investment of Confucianism and Italy to become a joint producer, but more importantly, Chen Zhixi, who is the director system and joint producer, helps the main creative team.

In the second half of 2022, just after Wang Yibo finished filming "Passionate," producer Chen Zhixi mentioned in an interview that "because of Wang Yibo, I bravely shot this theme. And Yibo’s characterization is very successful, and it is very different from his daily life." She gave the young actor high praise and recommended it to producer Zhang Shuwei and director Yao Xiaofeng.

So the main creator met with Wang Yibo’s team and chatted from noon to dark. Yao Xiaofeng was very satisfied with Wang Yibo’s modesty, sincerity, but dedication to good. Wang Yibo was also interested in the character itself, and the two parties successfully determined the cooperation intention.

Wang Yang, who plays Shen Tunan, has been a good friend of Chen Zhixi for many years. During the preparation, Zhang Shuwei and the director always believed that they should choose an actor who was not too different in age from Wang Yibo and could produce a chemical reaction to the play, so they hoped to finalize the cooperation with Wang Yang early in the morning. Yesterday, Shen Tunan’s wife Su Cishu appeared, and Chen Zhixi also sent a Weibo to thank his actor for his friendship and help.

Yao Xiaofeng said that after the cast was formed, the preparation was twice as fast as usual, and it was soon decided to start filming. From January to May 2023, the drama was filmed in Shanghai, and then it was post-editing and waiting to be broadcast. Until a few days before going LIVE, the original title of "Long Wind Breaking the Waves" was changed to "Wind Chaser", and finally broke the iQIYI premiere record this year with 6614 on March 21, #wind chasers, texture #on the hot search.

Entertainment Capital found that not only the star Wang Yibo, but also the behind-the-scenes creators of "The Wind Chaser" mostly used film crews.

The director Yao Xiaofeng is from the photography department of Nortel. Before filming TV series, he was a photographer for famous directors such as Huang Jianxin and Li Shaohong, and he was very skilled in the scheduling of the camera. The opening scene is a long shot that follows Wei Ruolai’s back, and the seemingly idle close-ups and regular dialogues quickly show Wei Ruolai’s relationship with the people around him. Coupled with a new series of pingtan with regional characteristics, the group portraits stand up, and the smoke and reality naturally arise.

Editing director Cao Weijie’s collaboration with Jiang Wen lasted from "The Sun Also Rises" to "Evil Does Not Suppress Right", and was nominated for Best Editing at the Academy Awards for "Let the Bullets Fly". Art director Wu Jiakui’s previous masterpieces were blockbusters such as "1921" and "Qian Xuesen", which was also his first time participating in TV series production. Styling director Ma Defan is a costumer for films such as "Love in Hawthorn Trees" and "White Deer Plain".

The fusion of "film + TV series" has laid the foundation for the texture of "Wind Chaser", and also highlights the advantages of Ruyi Film in making TV series.

During the shooting period, Yao Xiaofeng pursued details extremely, strived for authenticity, and provided more protection for "texture" creation.

For example, the scene before Wei Ruolai went to the central bank for an interview that left a deep impression on the audience at the beginning, in fact, there were only a few words in the script, "Wei Ruolai hurriedly put on his clothes in the morning to rush to the exam". Yao Xiaofeng temporarily added a lot of details for Wei Ruolai, straightening his hair by hand in front of the mirror, taking the washbasin downstairs to brush his teeth, and tearing up the calendar before going out… Including later asking Aunt Zhou to put on a coat for Wei Ruolai, the director insisted on changing it to an obviously inappropriate one, plus a scarf with hairballs and broken socks. The image of Wei Ruolai "coming from the countryside to a big city to work hard" was quickly three-dimensional.

A few days before the start of filming, Yao Xiaofeng was still under pressure to demolish the original scenes of Qibao Street and Wei Ruolai’s room, making these two scenes more old and crowded, highlighting the gap between Wei Ruolai’s lower-level environment and the "Shili Yangchang" in Greater Shanghai.

In the end, a scene of less than 2 minutes was filmed for three days, and the original one-week shooting of the Qibao Street opening scene was delayed into two weeks. Although the lengthened cycle brought a lot of pressure to the production team, this director’s dedication to details was able to unite the crew and make the whole team work together to ensure the high-quality completion of "Wind Chaser".

Financial incision, "flow" bonus, "Wind Chaser" blows new wind for national drama

From focusing on family disputes, espionage, to fantasy and love that have emerged in recent years, the complex genre of the Republic of China drama track has undergone several turns, and finance has always been a rare angle. "The Wind Chaser" sets the story in Shanghai in 1930, selects the financial system reform of the Republic of China as the background, and opens a new incision in the great drama of the Republic of China era.

At the beginning, Wei Ruolai is checking the accounts for the gang boss, and in the conversation, he explains his background of low birth and no way to apply for a job, which also lays the groundwork for the later encounter with the heroine Shen and the truth and relief. Then the scene quickly shifts from Qibao Street to bourse, Wei Ruolai and Aunt Zhou first taste the stock market failure, watching the stock price on the wooden board fall sharply from the high point, leaving a "hook" for the successful job search after guessing Shen Tunan’s acquisition intentions.

The true scenes, interlocking narratives, and the unique plot extended by the financial incision have allowed this Republic of China drama, which is based on the financial events of the Republic of China and the growth history of small characters, to quickly differentiate itself among similar dramas.

"Achieving a breakthrough in the original genre" has always been the principle of Chen Zhixi’s production of films and TV series. She once said at the screening site that she thought the work was worth developing after watching the first three episodes in one go.

But at the same time, she also found that the threshold for acceptance of the original script is relatively high, "which means that not everyone can enjoy this kind of TV series." Therefore, how to combine with the present nature so that the audience can find resonance in the plot has become the improvement direction of the second creation of "Wind Chaser".

And the opportunity and impulse of "second creation", Yao Xiaofeng found from the star Wang Yibo. He once mentioned in an interview that "Wei Ruolai is a clean and young, very’tenacious’ hot-blooded young man", these characteristics are very consistent with Wang Yibo’s original temperament.

He had previously learned that Wang Yibo made his way out of Henan step by step with his talent and drive. This experience allowed Yao Xiaofeng to find the entrance to "present nature": to shape Wei Ruolai into an ordinary young man in the torrent of the times, he will also be confused and wandering at the intersection of national and personal destiny, but eventually he will firmly believe and make a choice.

At the same time, the "workplace" element is strengthened in the central bank line part, creating a complete growth line for Wei Ruolai to upgrade from "workplace Xiaobai" to professional financier, so that the audience can see similar experiences and feelings in the character.

Yao Xiaofeng also allowed the actors to bring in a more modern way of thinking, allowing them to give real reactions and guiding Wang Yibo to show different emotional levels step by step during the shooting.

Before "The Wind Chaser", Wang Yibo used Mr. Ye in "Nameless" to confirm his compatibility with the dramas and revolutionaries of the Republic of China, and the enthusiasm and tenacity in "Warm" coincided with the youth and momentum of Wei Ruolai in the early days. It is conceivable that Chen Zhixi has considered his compatibility with the character when setting up the game.

Not only "The Wind Chaser", Chen Zhixi and Ruyi have always had mature experience in combining streaming actors with high-quality content.

In 2015’s "No War in Peiping", Liu Ye at that time was also a "traffic" student, "strong alliance" with a group of old actors around him to create a classic spy war drama.

"Send You a Little Red Flower" is Jackson Yee’s second film. He plays a cancer patient who has just been diagnosed with self-abandonment and high-pressure emotions under long-term family care. The scene of confrontation with his parents has also become one of the most out-of-the-loop clips in the film.

The combination of "Bo Yibo" in the "Enthusiasm" controlled by Confucianism and Italy highlights the chemical reaction of the master-apprentice combination. At that time, many people said that Chen Shuo was tailor-made for Wang Yibo: he had an ordinary background, loved street dance, was young and passionate, and had an unyielding energy.

From these examples, it is not difficult to see how Confucianism makes good use of streaming actors: one is to combine the actor’s experience to find roles that are highly compatible with the actor, build on their strengths and avoid their weaknesses, and find the comfort zone where the content overlaps with the actor. The second is to use a "hand-holding" approach to allow young actors to gradually grow in a mature crew, and to create a character combination that allows mature actors with rich experience to have a chemical reaction with them.

"Confessions in the Dark Night", which has just been officially announced by Confucianism and Italy, also uses Pan Yueming, who is known for criminal investigation dramas, to pair with the young top-class Wang Hedi. From the plot introduction, Wang Hedi’s role as Ran Fangxu is a character similar to "White Moonlight", which involves the persistence of the master and his daughter to investigate the truth. "With the rule of hand-holding", the law of character adaptation and double combination appears again.

On the other hand, this kind of long-term in-depth co-creation with mature teams and the addition of high-quality content to young actors will subtly improve their acting skills and empower young actors for their future growth and commercial value. Take "Confessions of the Night" as an example, this can be seen as the starting point for Wang Hedi’s transformation to a new genre by virtue of ancient puppets. The integration of "film + TV series" also allows young actors to have more learning space.

In recent years, the first generation of traffic has ebbed, and high-quality dramas have appeared frequently. The stereotype that "using traffic is a bad drama" is gradually fading, and the industry’s views on the new generation of young actors are also gradually reforming: it is impossible to deny the addition of actors’ own popularity to the drama. More importantly, think about the characteristics of actors and the adaptation of the content and characters of the drama, and find a way to win-win.

Returning to "Wind Chaser", whether it is a unique financial incision or the maximization of the cast combination, this high-quality drama that focuses on the growth of young talents in the era and reflects the context of economic development in a specific era has blown a "new wind" on the drama track of the Republic of China, and also provided a new sample for the innovative breakthroughs of similar dramas.

Confucianism and Italy ride the wind, Wanda accelerator

At the beginning of this year, Chen Zhixi became the chairperson and president of Wanda Film. At the same time, Entertainment Capital also noticed that two companies, Ruyi Film and Wanda Film and Television, had appeared among the co-producers of "Wind Chaser".

If the super layout of the four films of Confucianism and Italy + Wanda during the Spring Festival is the New Year meeting gift that Chen Zhixi brought to Wanda Film, then the go LIVE of "Wind Chaser" and the consecutive launch of the two major dramas are the "accelerators" that she helped Wanda TV series become the industry leader.

Wanda Film and Television officially entered the drama industry in 2016, and the production pace and quality were not stable. In contrast, Ruyi Film’s strength in the drama field has been steadily improving.

In January this year, Chen Zhixi’s director-produced "Prosecutor and Juvenile" was launched. The drama was directed by Teng Huatao and starred Zhang Xiaofei and Chen He. From the plot synopsis, this is a realistic work involving juvenile delinquency, family education and the legal system. This year’s Spring Festival file "Article 20" has a long-term word-of-mouth and a reverse decline in the box office, which proves that this kind of theme is in line with the current audience’s preferences.

Also directed by Chen Zhixi, "Confessions of the Night" was launched in early March. The drama was directed by Wang Zhi and starred Pan Yueming, who was extremely suitable for the theme of criminal investigation. The combination of his master and apprentice with Wang Hedi made the audience look forward to it. The configuration of "middle-aged powerful actor + young top class" also escorted the quality of the drama and the popularity of go LIVE in advance.

In the current TV drama to be broadcast, "My Altay", directed by Chen Zhixi, has just been shortlisted for the main competition unit of the 2024 Cannes TV Festival. The drama is directed by Teng Congcong, starring Ma Yili, Zhou Yiran, and Yu Shi. Once again, Ruyi has shown a strong ability to organize and control the content.

In addition, in the latest TV drama filing, the ancient costume drama "Avenue Chaotian" has been filed by Confucianism, which is adapted from the novel of the same name of the cat. The "2023IP Weathervane" report shows that male-frequency IP is a new trend in future film and television dramas. "Avenue Chaotian" is also one of the few new IPs of the cat after the success of film and television such as "Celebration of More Years" and "General Night".

Previously in the field of drama, Wanda Film and Television has not been able to enter the head sequence before, and from the beginning of "Wind Chaser", whether it is the main creator or the big IP blessing, Ruyi + Wanda’s new drama configuration has been significantly upgraded, entering the S, S + level, but also for Wanda Film and Television’s TV drama business up the ante new engine.

As previously analyzed by Entertainment Capital, after Chen Zhixi entered Wanda Film, his stable production ability and Chen Zhixi’s professionalism in content control will allow Wanda Film to return to the content-led industry logic. Chen Zhixi is also one of the few producers in the industry that spans the two fields of film and TV series, and is expected to inspire new possibilities for the linkage of drama and film in the integration of Wanda Film’s entire industry chain.

In the future, the new combination of Ruyi + Wanda will enhance the quality of domestic dramas with film thinking and integration team, conform to the trend of "boutique" of dramas, contribute to the domestic drama film and television industry, and also empower the long-term development and more vigorous vitality of the brand.

Ronghui Jinke Si Mingcheng： How to make the bank risk control system ＂light＂ and speed up the road to change

The independent development of its own brand credit business has become an unavoidable "compulsory course" for licensed Financial Institution Groups.

Behind the digital transformation of finance, there are two "invisible forces" driving – momentum and pressure.

The driving force is mainly reflected in the fact that some licensed Financial Institution Groups that started first have enjoyed the value benefits brought by digital transformation. The pressure is mainly reflected in the intensive implementation of domestic financial regulatory policies in the past two years, which have put forward higher compliance requirements for the risk control ability, operation ability, system construction ability and data governance ability of licensed Financial Institution Groups, and promoted the "Matthew effect" of the industry.

"Ronghui Jinke’s mission is to help the licensed Financial Institution Group build an independent and controllable Internet credit risk control system." Si Mingcheng, general manager of Ronghui Jinke Platform Product Division and CRO of Personal Credit Business Division, told Yiou that this goal has never changed in the past five years. Now Ronghui Jinke has successfully helped many banks, gold and other top licensed Financial Institution Groups to complete the construction and iteration of risk management systems. The company’s reputation and customer reputation have always remained at the forefront of the industry.

Si Mingcheng graduated from Cass Business School in London and obtained a master’s degree in actuarial science. Previously, he worked in Baidu Finance and Zhongrong Life Insurance, and has rich practical experience in the construction of Internet financial risk management system and risk control system platform development. In our conversation with him, we found that in today’s diverse financial risk control needs and homogeneous solutions, the risk control system platform products he led the team to carefully build, the technical innovation and service concepts behind them are of great reference.

Hard core product innovation, deeply empower customer business value

"Based on past experience, we hope to help the Licensed Financial Institutions Group fully grasp the direction and requirements of digital transformation under the new supervision."

Si Mingcheng mentioned that Ronghui Jinke started the development of risk control system platform products when it launched the auxiliary operation business at the beginning of its establishment.

So far, Ronghui Jinke risk control system platform has formed a more comprehensive product matrix, including credit index management platform, asset quality monitoring platform, model monitoring management platform, data management platform, etc., deeply empowering the licensed Financial Institution Group to conduct multi-dimensional management of strategic models, information data, business monitoring, implementation processes, operational risks, etc. in all aspects of credit business, and comprehensively strengthen the management of self-operated business refinement and automation.

According to Si Mingcheng, the credit index management platform includes the whole process solution of PBC report analysis, core variable derivation, and variable management, which can help partners quickly derive six modules, ten categories, and tens of thousands of variables with business meaning. It has the characteristics of high differentiation, clear logic, and full utilization of information; at the same time, it also supports flexible configuration and management of variables, and the integrated processing variables of flow and batch fully ensure that the derived variables play an efficient value in risk control strategies and model applications.

(Some functional modules of the credit index management platform)

At the same time, in order to effectively deal with the unpredictable risks in the rapid development of business, the asset quality monitoring platform and the model monitoring management platform are respectively for the licensed Financial Institution Group in the form of consulting services + platform landing. The former helps partners to achieve real-time monitoring and early warning of the whole process of asset quality and business indicators, which can greatly save human resources costs, effectively reduce the non-performing rate, and ensure the quality of credit assets.

The latter is aimed at the full life cycle management of the model, that is, through automated real-time calculation and monitoring data, to achieve full-link monitoring of the model, to ensure the stability and effectiveness of the model, and to have configuration display and early warning functions, to strengthen the model of the licensed Financial Institution Group.

In the past two years, regulators have continued to encourage banks to strengthen their self-operated business and independent risk control capabilities, and many media have repeatedly reported the independent risk control problems of small and medium-sized banks. Si Mingcheng believes that banks and non-bank licensed Financial Institution Groups build their own risk control systems, which not only require a lot of resources and labor costs, but are expected to take five to ten years or even longer to complete.

Some industry experts stress that banking institutions must "grow" these capabilities from their own soil, rather than relying on ready-made solutions. Ronghui Jinke’s system platform product positioning coincides with this idea, that is, in a deeply empowered, white-box delivery model, the services provided are fully open to partners, helping them gradually build their own professional risk control team and independent risk management capabilities.

"In the depth of cooperation with many customers, we not only implement and deliver system platform products, but also provide a complete set of risk control solutions and actual business operation solutions, with equal emphasis on" fish "and" fishing "to maximize the value of the products themselves, so as to help cooperative customers to expand their business scale." Si Mingcheng revealed that under such a model and concept, Ronghui Jinke has started to standardize the output of risk control system platform products since the end of 2019. At present, nearly 20 leading banks, gold and other licensed Financial Institution Group system platform product benchmarking projects have been completed. Among them, the credit index management platform solution capability has reached the top three in the industry.

In addition, Si Mingcheng also pointed out that some licensed Financial Institution Groups such as banks have successively done some digital risk control construction, but they are often "chimney buildings", and system platform products can help the original "buildings" become a solid "foundation", helping institutions to promote their decision-making system from "blank filling of data elements" to "value-driven capability enhancement" on the basis of compliance.

Yiou learned that the credit index management platform implemented by Ronghui Jinke last year for many banks, licensed gold consumption, etc., helped banks and other banks to expand the derivative variable library at one time, greatly improved the efficiency of risk control model and strategy development, and helped banks and other banks to complete the construction and iteration of digital independent risk control "more quickly and cost-effectively".

Specifically, on the one hand, the platform provides a multi-dimensional and multi-level high-quality index library to help banks fully mine the effective information in credit reports and three-party data, and also provides a unified index management capability for the whole bank to achieve variable "one-time configuration management, all-bank shared application"; on the other hand, the platform supports variable efficient processing, and realizes front-end parameterization to configure variables and go online with one click.

"The entire project implementation cycle was very short, and the localization of the system was completed within a week, which greatly shortened the launch cycle of the platform application. Because of the smooth implementation of the first phase of the project, many customers have cooperated with us in the second phase to further help the industry improve the index processing capacity." Si Mingcheng recalled.

What makes Ronghui system platform products "stand out"

What really distinguishes Ronghui Jinke system platform products from the same type of products on the market is not just the product innovation.

Si Mingcheng said that Ronghui Jinke’s own deep "Party A advantages", unique "compound genes" and rich financial risk control "combat experience" provide a lot of first-mover advantages for system platform products.

On the one hand, Ronghui Jinke’s management and expert team have very rich experience in risk management and practical operation at home and abroad, and have practical experience in risk control system from zero to one, including product and system construction. At present, the risk control system platform products designed by Ronghui Jinke have undergone theoretical and practical two-factor authentication, which can well meet the actual needs of customers, achieve plug and play, and quickly solve business pain points.

In addition to that, the system platform product design follows a flexible and light-coupled approach, which can not only fully support the whole process of business operations, but also be modularized and configured according to customer needs, making it easy and convenient to connect with the customer’s own system and go online.

At the same time, the construction of the risk control system involves the overall planning of the digital transformation of the licensed Financial Institution Group. "We cooperate with our customers not only on the construction of risk control systems, but also in marketing customer acquisition, risk consulting and data management. Ronghui Jinke has mature and complete digital solutions and risk consulting solutions."

As mentioned above, compared with a single digital risk control solution output, Ronghui Jinke system platform products come with "supporting facilities", bringing Ronghui Jinke’s technological capabilities and profound accumulation in Internet credit business to the licensed Financial Institution Group, and also allowing the risk control system of the licensed Financial Institution Group to "take root and thrive" on its own soil.

On the other hand, Ronghui Jinke also has a product and technical team with strong combat effectiveness and in-depth customer concept, which can not only fully ensure product quality and customer experience, but also respond quickly to customer needs, solve and feedback customer problems in the first time, and ensure the stable operation of the business.

"For the platform products used in online risk control business, the processing performance of the system is also very important to customers." Siming Cheng revealed that, for example, the credit index management platform, we pay great attention to the scalability of variables from the source variable design. In the underlying technology implementation, the application of flexible parameter configuration method can complete the processing of ten thousand dimensional variables in about 100 milliseconds, which can meet the variable processing of hundreds of thousands of incoming parts every day. In terms of performance, it has been recognized by all cooperative customers.

Conclusion

"As the direction of supervision becomes clearer and clearer, from the current digital transformation of the industry, there is still a way to go for the Internet retail credit business of the Licensed Financial Institution Group to be transformed into self-operated business and independent risk control." In Si Mingcheng’s view, in the new situation of financial technology, risk management is more refined, and the Licensed Financial Institution Group, which has a complete, professional and systematic risk control system, will surely go more stable and faster in the fierce and healthy competition environment.

"Facing the future, what we need to do is to transform technological capabilities into core products and services, and deeply empower the licensed Financial Institution Group to complete the digital transformation. These capabilities are also a solid foundation to ensure the sustainable, healthy and compliance development of Ronghui Jinke’s business."

Positioning more accurate？ Shouqi car-hailing map navigation upgrade

　　[Autohome Industry] The accuracy of map navigation largely determines the level of online car-hailing service. If the positioning is inaccurate, you may have to spend half a day looking for a car, which is time-consuming and expensive. On June 18, Shouqi announced a cooperation upgrade with Baidu Maps to further improve user travel efficiency.

Autohome

　　Whether the navigation map is good or not can be seen from three dimensions. First, positioning accuracy, inaccurate positioning will waste a lot of time for users; second, route planning, whether the optimal route can be recommended for users; third, trajectory correction, to prevent drivers from detouring and other situations.

　　The upgrade of the first car-hailing map focuses on the above three aspects. What’s more interesting is that passengers can choose their own route and modify their destination directly on the app. Passengers can dynamically adjust their travel plans according to the optimal route recommended by the map in real time.

Autohome

　　According to the data of the Prospective Industry Research Institute, in 2018, the top three mobile map market shares in China were Autonavi Maps (33%), Baidu Maps (32.7%), and Tencent Maps (15%). Autonavi Maps is owned by Ali, and the map market is also contested by BAT three companies. Like Autonavi, Baidu Maps also adopts an aggregation platform model. Strengthening cooperation with Shouqi about cars is also competing with Autonavi Maps.

　　When it comes to online car-hailing, of course, Didi cannot be ignored. In 2016, Didi established a map company "Dietu Technology" to conduct self-developed navigation map research and development. However, because it is not open to the public, ordinary users generally do not know much about it. On June 11, Chai Hua, the head of Didi Maps and the public transportation department, came forward to answer the question of the route planning of online car-hailing to the public. The competition for the map market is another dark battle for online car-hailing companies in the public eye.

Autohome

　　For users, the concern is whose map is more accurate. Whether you are in a car or driving by yourself, a good navigation map is indispensable. Which map do you think is better to use when you go out? (Text/Autohome Jiang Pingping)

Meizu opens the AI era of mobile phones

Reporter, Li Xiaohong

After announcing the All in AI strategy, on February 29, Xingji Meizu Group held a grand "Meizu Special Event" conference in Zhuhai, officially opening the AI era of Meizu and drawing a ceremonial end to Meizu’s smartphone era.

Shen Ziyu, chairperson and CEO of Xingji Meizu Group, admitted that it was a very difficult decision for him to stop the new project of traditional smartphones and fully invest in the field of AI. But he believes that AI is the future that cannot be missed, and Meizu in the next era will be All in AI. "Meizu has the confidence to enter the AI industry. On the one hand, it has sufficient experience in multi-end point and multi-platform development. On the other hand, Flyme has accumulated a lot of advanced experience in human-machine interaction."

Picture 1

Meizu’s determination to turn around and bet on the AI field is also related to the fact that Meizu has always been a cutting-edge entrepreneurial team. When Meizu was founded, it was just an MP3 musician manufacturer. In 2009, after seeing the trend of smartphones, it discontinued all MP3 products, turned around and embraced more future smartphones, and then launched many highly praised Meizu mobile phones with great personality and recognition. In today’s AI sweeping the world, Meizu has keenly smelled the AI trend and fully invested in the AI field, hoping to find its new position in the new round of technological revolution.

Figure 2

At the press conference, Meizu released its first AI end point – Meizu 21PRO, taking the first step of Meizu All in AI.

As a newly built tomorrow’s device for the AI era, Meizu 21PRO not only achieves a qualitative leap in performance, but also makes a big fuss about AI. Meizu 21PRO has rich new AI functions such as AI smart keys, AI auxiliary input, AI gallery and AI voice, bringing users more convenient and intelligent service experience, which is a true open AI end point. In the future, Flyme system will also introduce more AI concepts, such as AI portable secretary, task robot, AI memory housekeeper, etc., to break through the traditional model and bring a new technology experience.

In an interview with the China Economic Times reporter, Shen Ziyu said that changing the human-machine interaction experience is the core advantage of AI mobile phones. As a connection point for users, smartphones make people feel that APP is a better way by swiping or multi-touch, laying the core foundation for the rapid development of smartphones for more than a decade. AI mobile phones are users who need to communicate with AI, rather than asking users to go to APP. Tell the AI Agent if you have any questions, and the AI Agent pushes according to the user’s usage habits. This is the core human-interaction machine experience. Therefore, the human-interaction machine experience determines the survival and value of the AI end point.

"In the AI era, Meizu must seize the opportunity to elevate the human-machine interaction experience to a higher level." Shen Ziyu said that AI mobile phones need to change the hardware form and human-machine interaction experience, and at the same time reshape the entire supply chain, so that major mobile phone manufacturers can achieve differentiated development.

Figure 3

Of course, Meizu announced the end of the traditional smartphone business and the opening of the AI end point market, which is bound to have a greater breakthrough. Meizu 21PRO, as Meizu’s first flagship mobile phone with open API capability, is open to all large model platforms, provides developers with system permissions, API documents, and opens the AI computing power of the processor, allowing developers to have full freedom to realize more innovative functions and application services.

Shen Ziyu told the China Economic Times reporter that the reason why all big model platforms are open is because Meizu cannot cover all aspects. Meizu has control over the hardware, but the content of AI big model training is for users to use hardware related habits and interactions. For example, Meituan, Alibaba, etc. have a large number of user habits and data, and Meizu cannot cover these areas, so FlymeOS must be developed.

To make subversive AI equipment is a big challenge for Meizu. Shen Ziyu believes that at present, Meizu needs to solve the problem of lack of talent and technical structure adjustment. In the future, it is necessary to expand the AI team and adjust the existing talent structure.Transform from an experience leader in the smartphone era to an experience leader in the AI era.

At the press conference, Meizu announced the details of the All in AI strategic plan, including building AI Device products, refactoring the Flyme system and building an AI ecosystem. Among them, Meizu will focus on building an AI ecosystem and fully open Meizu AI Device hardware to many international top model teams, including OpenAI, to jointly promote the innovation and development of AI technology.

"In the AI era, Meizu will reconstruct the product form of hardware, based on a new interaction pattern, reconstruct the interaction logic of software, interact in a more intuitive way, and reconstruct the ecological layout based on AI," Shen Ziyu said.

Demystifying the real life of female chauffeurs in Xiamen, the order receiving rate is twice as high as that of men

　　On the streets of Xiamen in March, cold winds gusted. At seven o’clock in the evening, the sky had just darkened, and they were already waiting by the restaurant with their bicycles. After a while, people who were full of food and drinks walked out of the restaurant one after another, and their "nightlife" officially began.

　　Walking through the night, they have to carry up and down folding bicycles weighing 30 or 40 catties; working in the dark, their customers are mostly drunk men… Recently, our reporter approached the group of female drivers, followed them to take orders and listen to their stories. Today, we present the most authentic life conditions of female drivers through the narratives of Xiaoxiao, Amei and Aqi.

　　Female chauffeurs are already a large group in Xiamen. The picture shows Amei at work. (Photos from this group/Photo by reporter Huang Rong)

　　[Misunderstood]

　　The customer heard a female voice and thought he made the wrong call.

　　Because there are not many female chauffeurs, they are often regarded as "rare animals".

　　When some customers heard the female voice, they immediately said, I’m sorry, I made a typo. After learning that there was indeed no typo, they explained again and again. After calling for a driver for several years, they had never met a woman and thought they had made a typo. There was a male customer driving a Porsche who saw a female chauffeur and said "hi": "He asked me to try the performance of the car and drive 200km/h to Xiamen Bridge. I didn’t listen to him and controlled the speed at 60 kilometers per hour. He was furious and asked me, do you know how pigs died, and I replied, stupid; he said, no, disobedient to death." Then, the male customer said again: Unfortunately, I drive a Porsche of more than one million. If it is a car of 200,000 or 300,000, I will let you drive it directly home.

　　[Being harassed]

　　The drunkard moved his hands and feet, and asked her to "introduce Miss"

　　"Young women are not very suitable for this line of work," Ah Mei said bluntly. Female drivers mostly take orders at night, and the customers are mostly men who drink too much. As she got older, she said, "it’s safer and less troublesome." Even so, Ah Mei still encountered a lot of troubles.

　　In early March, two drunken male customers were going to Hexu Li, but when they saw that a female driver was coming, they immediately changed their minds and went to find "Miss", and asked her if she had any sisters to do this. "Seeing that Ah Mei said no, a man in the back seat reached out to touch her face: I see if there are any wrinkles on your face. When they got to the place, Ah Mei stopped the car and took off the bicycle." One man snatched my bicycle directly and wanted to try it, and the other man came directly and wanted to hug me and asked me to take him to find’Miss’. "Ah Mei pushed the male customer away, angry, tired, and aggrieved all welled up in her heart. However, the next day, the male client called Amei to apologize, which helped her balance a lot, but instead comforted them not to take it to heart.

　　36-Year-old Aqi had a similar experience. Once, when she arrived on her bicycle, the man who called for the driver was already drunk, and there was a male companion in his 20s next to her. Seeing a female driver, the young man stuffed his drunk friend into the back seat of the car and got into the co-pilot himself. As soon as the car started, the young man came up with a smile on his face, "Sister, you still dare to come out and take orders so late." Seeing Aqi’s silence, the boy became more "arrogant" and his hands and feet began to be dishonest. At that time, in July and August, the young man reached out and touched Aqi’s armpit. Aqi was so angry that he warned, "I can be your aunt at my age, so you can take care of yourself." The young man didn’t listen and "moved" his hands several times. Aqi finally broke out and scolded the other party, "The steering wheel is in my hands, do you still want to be safe!" Hearing this, the young man was so frightened that he withdrew his hand.

　　[Being tracked]

　　Male colleague with ulterior motives uses location sharing to find her home

　　It was disturbing enough to encounter customers who moved their hands and feet. Aqi never expected that some male chauffeurs would be "unrelenting" to her.

　　Since all the chauffeurs were on the same work platform and could see the location information of their colleagues, the rare female chauffeurs naturally became the "object of attention" of their male colleagues. "Most of the male colleagues still take good care of me, but there are always some who make uncomfortable jokes under the banner of’caring ‘with ulterior motives."

　　Aqi told reporters that when he first started driving, only three or four of them were customers’ orders in one night, and the other 10 or so were "condolence calls" from nearby male colleagues. Because it was a work number, Aqi had to answer.

　　Among them, the one with less "lethality" was a sarcastic sentence, "Why does a woman work so hard? Does she have no husband at home?"

　　These words were like sharp knives stabbing in Aqi’s heart, "I also rely on my own ability to make money hard, why do you think of me so unbearably."

　　In January this year, a male chauffeur was "monitoring" Aqi’s whereabouts all the time, and even chased after Aqi’s door and stalked her. Finally, Aqi had to call the police for help.

　　[Being taken care of]

　　The customer was afraid that she would not be able to return home, so he specially called a car to take her home

　　However, there are also heartwarming moments.

　　On the last order before the Spring Festival, at around 8pm, Amei sent a male customer to Jinjiang. As soon as he got on the bus, the male customer saw a female chauffeur and asked, how can you go back to Xiamen so far away. "I don’t have a bottom line," Hearing Amei’s answer, the male customer made seven or eight calls along the way to contact the car back to Xiamen for her, and didn’t feel relieved until he found it. "He said that if I were a man, he would give up after making two calls at most, but I am a woman. I am afraid that I will not be able to return to Xiamen, and I will not be willing to stay in a hotel, and I will wait on the roadside until dawn." In order to make Ameido some money, the male customer also specially let her take a long detour.

　　Another time, it was raining at night, and Ah Mei had to drive for a man and a woman. Because of the rain, she was afraid that the bicycle would wet the customer’s car. Ah Mei laid a cushion on the passenger’s trunk in the rain, and then put the bicycle in. Then she opened the driver’s door and took out the seat cover, for fear of getting the seat wet. The male customer is Taiwanese, and he was afraid that she would get wet, so he kept saying it was okay and got on the bus quickly. Seeing Ah Mei’s insistence, the male customer gave a thumbs up: I didn’t expect the service in the mainland to be first-class. After getting off the bus, the male customer also gave her an umbrella. There are many such moments, and every time I think of it, Ah Mei will feel warm in my heart. (At the request of the interviewee, the female drivers in the text are all pseudonyms)

　　[Lens]

　　Take 9 orders in one night and finish work at 4am

　　At 9 o’clock the night before, at the entrance of a seafood shop near Ershi City, Xiaoxiao pushed the folding bicycle and walked towards us. After receiving the driving order every night, Xiaoxiao rode it to the customer, folded it, and carried it to the trunk of the customer’s car. After delivering the customer to the destination, Xiaoxiao carried it off and continued on the road. Every night around 6 o’clock, Xiaoxiao would ride a bicycle to a place with a lot of traffic and wait for the order.

　　We followed Xiaoxiao to send a customer to Lianhua Village, but the bicycle couldn’t be folded. Xiaoxiao was anxious and squatted on the ground for about ten minutes, "really embarrassing". That night, she took 9 orders and didn’t finish work until 4 am the next day. Riding a bicycle, she returned home from the second phase of the software park to Fanghu Road.

　　[Data]

　　growth rate of driving

　　Xiamen ranks third in the country

　　Xiamen’s driving market is dominated by e-driving and Didi driving. According to the big data released by e-driving, Xiamen ranked third in the growth rate of driving in major cities across the country in 2015, with a growth rate of 141%.

　　Xiamen two major driving merchants

　　There are more than 700 female chauffeurs

　　Four months after the e-driving service opened in Xiamen, the first woman to register has been welcomed, and this group has now grown to more than 500 people. Among Didi’s drivers, there are currently 226 female drivers. Combined with the data of Didi’s drivers and e-drivers, the proportion of female drivers in Xiamen is close to 10%.

　　Female drivers are more popular

　　The take-up rate is twice as high as that of men

　　Although the number of female drivers is small, they are quite popular. For example, some women will "name" and ask for female drivers. Data provided by e-driving shows that between 6 and 11 pm, "online" female drivers receive 1.9 times as many orders as male drivers.

　　"It’s a lie to say you’re not afraid"

　　Almost all customers will ask me: Are you not afraid of being a female driver? It is false to say that you are not afraid, but when driving a customer’s car, the steering wheel and accelerator are under my control, and generally they will not do anything to me. – Aqi

　　I don’t think it’s okay about safety. Xiamen people are of good quality, and I have fitness. But I didn’t tell my parents that I was a female driver, for fear that they would be worried. But after my sister found out, she asked me to bring some "anti-wolf weapons". – – Xiaoxiao (Text/Reporter, Wang Yuting, Huang Xiaofang)

Revealing the Translation Process of ＂Guardians of the Galaxy＂： 8 Processes to Check Layer by Layer

　
Preliminary preparation: Disney provides English dialogue text and Chinese translation table of nouns
　
　 　　"Guardians of the Galaxy" was released on the mainland on October 10, and Jia Xiuyan did some preparation work in late June when he learned that he would be a translator for the film. "I watched Tieba and gained a deep understanding of the story and the characters in it through the Internet. In fact, it is necessary to understand the background of the film. There will never be a situation where you just start reading without watching or understanding anything."
　
　 　　In July, she got the English dialogue text, the Chinese translation table of nouns and the film manual. These three things may be relatively unfamiliar to ordinary netizens, all of which came from the film, which was provided by Disney, the filmmaker of "Guardians of the Galaxy" this time. "The international version of the dialogue text is much more complicated than our common Chinese scripts. The rulers, names, place names, scenes, etc. are all written very clearly."
　
　 　　The ruler that Jia Xiuyan mentioned refers to the size and time of each sentence. Basically, each sentence should be controlled within 20 words. When translating, parentheses, punctuation, and annotations should not be added, and the subtitles should not appear difficult words that hinder the audience’s understanding. Speaking of this, Jia Xiuyan gave an example, "For example, the word’covet ‘is actually not so easy to understand, and Director Zhang also said that the audience will not be so clear when the word is said, usually we will change a word and replace it with something easier to understand."
　
　 　　The Chinese translation table of nouns stipulates the Chinese translation version of some fixed nouns, such as people’s names, place names, etc. The planet "Terran" mentioned in the film is specified as "Special Blue Star" in the Chinese translation table of nouns. The movie manual will explain the overall style tone and general content of the introduction. Take "Guardians of the Galaxy" as an example, the movie manual will mention that the movie is humorous and will also give a general introduction to the Marvel Universe.
　
　 　　Each of the five protagonists in "Guardians of the Galaxy" has its own unique personality, which also needs to be distinguished when translating and dubbing. "Drax speaks in a crepe, and Kamora is a woman and a man. When we translate the dialogue, we must highlight these characteristics in order to make the audience feel their charm." Jia Xiuyan revealed that sometimes the film will ask the translator to replace a certain noun with a local word, so that the film can be better "down-to-earth".
　
Translation process: multi-party handling and layer-by-layer checks
　
　 　　After really entering the translation work, it took 7 days for Jia Xiuyan to complete the translation of the text dialogue and the script, and then the voice actors went into the studio to record, proofread, and go through a process of proofreading the subtitles.
　
　 　　During the translation process, Jia Xiuyan will also work with the film,translationThe director communicates, mainly targeting some laughs and difficulties. After the translation is completed,translationThe director will review, "This is also the most critical and important review. He will check whether the dialogue is complete and smooth, and also see if the dialogue is in line with the identity of the character, and the artistry of the lines should also be considered."
　
　 　　After entering the studio, the director, translator, filmmaker, sound engineer, voice actor, Chinese text correction recorder and others will be present, and during the word-for-word recording process, they will correct and modify. Then, there is the subtitling staff’s review. According to Jia Xiuyan, when using professional subtitling software to upload subtitles, in addition to correcting typos, subtivists will also proofread the lines again. After the subtitling staff, there will be someone who will continue to review, which is the production director. After the latter gets the subtitle file, he will check whether the lines are accurate again, and will also remove some mood words, such as "ah", "is" and so on.
　
　 　　Finally, the subtitles are handed back to the translator, who performs another pre-review. When all the people behind the scenes have completed their work, the film will be submitted for review. Although the relevant personnel are mainly examining the technical problems of dubbing, they will also propose changes to the Chinese dubbing and subtitles.
　
　 　　To sum up, the translation process of a foreign film is indeed, as Jia Xiuyan put it, "a layer of checks."
