In recent days, the COVID-19 virus has spread in the community of Hong Kong, and the number of confirmed patients has continuously reached a peak. All walks of life in Hong Kong are United in their efforts to respond to the call for the whole people to fight the epidemic, while countless warm drops have also occurred in the community. Among them, a touching "two-way trip" anti-epidemic story is happening between Hong Kong families and foreign domestic helpers.

　　Hong Kong citizen Yu Peishan and her husband both have on-the-job jobs, and the daily family life and the care of their two children are completed by Wahini, a foreign domestic helper from the Philippines. After the fifth round of epidemic outbreak in Hongkong, Hua Xini could not resist the menacing epidemic even though she had taken protective measures. She was diagnosed with Covid-19 two weeks ago.

　　After learning that she was infected with Covid-19, Hua Xini’s first reaction in a foreign land was that she was very scared. Yu Peishan immediately comforted and encouraged her, saying that she and her family would advance and retreat together with her. In fact, this is the first time that Yu Peishan has been so close to the virus. In addition, there are two children at home, and her inner worries are no less than Hua Hini’s. However, with the information provided by the SAR Government and the help of friends, Yu Peishan’s family is also prepared to resist the virus and tide over the difficulties with Hua Hini.

　　Since Hua Xini was diagnosed, Yu Peishan’s family basically never went out again, and the needs of life were replenished through online shopping. Hua Xini also stayed in her room to avoid contact with her family and children, so as to avoid further spread of the virus. In addition to completing her own work tasks, Yu Peishan and her husband take care of the daily life of the family, the care of two children and the care of Hua Xini.

　　Yu Peishan will prepare breakfast, lunch and evening meals for Hua Xini every day, and deliver them to the door of the room. When Hua Xini needs to use the bathroom, Yu Peishan will also help her prepare them before cleaning and disinfection. This kind of day has lasted for two weeks.

　　"Hua Xini left her hometown. She took care of us so well before. Now that she is ill, of course we should take the responsibility of the employer and take good care of her." Yu Peishan believes that Hua Xini is also a member of the family, and it is her bounden duty to take care of her family as early as possible.

　　Fortunately, under the meticulous care of Yu Peishan’s family, Hua Xini has now turned negative and her body has gradually recovered. She said that during these two weeks, she fully felt the care of Yu Peishan’s family and was very moved. Although Hong Kong is facing a severe epidemic challenge, Yu Peishan and Hua Xini believe that as long as everyone helps each other and faces it together in the spirit of being in the same boat through thick and thin, the predicament will definitely pass.

On December 23, in Hunchun City, Yanbian, Jilin Province, dam workers found the remains of a Northeast Leopard (Far East Leopard) whose hind legs and buttocks were eaten. Most of Hunchun City is within the scope of the Northeast Tiger and Leopard National Park, and the outside is the Russian Leopard National Park. The biggest "suspect" in this case is the Northeast Tiger.

Tiger and leopard fight for the front

People often say that peers are enemies and both are top predators. What is the relationship between tigers and leopards in nature?

There are two kinds of big cat habitats in the world: tiger and leopard, which can be divided into three parts according to geographical location, namely Northeast Asia (northeast China and Russian), South Asia (including Indian and Nepalese countries) and Southeast Asia (including Thailand and Malaysian countries). In 2022, Dr. Li Zhilin from the School of Life Sciences of Tianjin Normal University, Professor Wang Tianming from the School of Life Sciences of Beijing Normal University and the National Field Science Observation and Research Station of Butch and Leopard Biodiversity in Northeast China of Beijing Normal University published a paper in Biodiversity, combing the coexistence of butch and leopard in these three regions.

Li Zhilin and his colleagues made a survey in the northern foot of Changbai Mountain Range, and found that tigers directly interfered with the life of leopards, but speculated that they might compete for food and other resources. It is rare for a tiger to directly kill a leopard in Northeast Asia. The density of Siberian tigers in China is too small (0.24~0.30 /100 square kilometers) to directly repel leopards.

However, in tropical areas where the density of tigers and leopards is higher, the risk of friction between them becomes greater. There are records of tigers killing leopards in Huikha Khaeng Wildlife Sanctuary in Thailand and Mudumalai Tiger Reserve in India.

In 2021, a female tiger in Shariska Nature Reserve was photographed with a baby leopard, ?Yashvardhan Singh Shekhawat.

Li Zhilin mentioned that tigers and leopards are prone to conflict over food. In May this year, a dead leopard was found in the Bor Tiger Reserve in India, and a partially eaten water deer 50 meters away. This unlucky leopard may be the victim of competing with tigers for prey.

There are more indirect forms of evidence that tigers "bully" leopards. In Chitwan National Park in Nepal, the tiger occupied a "good place" with less human activities and more prey in the center of the park, while the leopard could only retreat to the area with more people and less prey outside the park, and its habitat was like a steamed stuffed bun. The tiger dug up the stuffing and ate it, and the leopard could only eat the remaining skin.

In Sariska Tiger Reserve, India, the tiger was once extinct, but it was reintroduced in 2008~2010, and the pressure immediately fell on the leopard. After the arrival of the tiger, the density of leopards decreased from 7.6 0.6 per 100 square kilometers to 3.1 0.4 per 100 square kilometers.

In South Asia and Southeast Asia, a smaller predator, jackals, will also get involved in the tiger and leopard competition. If the food is rich enough, tigers, leopards and jackals can choose their own prey of different sizes to reduce friction and achieve coexistence.

In areas where food is relatively scarce, such as Kuiburi National Park in Thailand, tigers occupy the best plots, and jackals are driven to barren plots by tigers, where jackals will put pressure on leopards, so that leopards can’t stay in barren places and hide in peace, so they can only venture to live in tiger’s territory. It’s a rat in a bellows who suffers at both ends.

Leopard: I can’t afford to hide.

Although the leopard can’t avoid suffering indignities, it also has skills that tigers can’t learn. Robert D. Holt and Gary A. Polis believe that although the tiger overwhelms the leopard when it interferes head-on, the leopard uses its prey more efficiently, and both have their own strengths, forming a stable coexistence situation.

This year, Indian forestry officials photographed a tiger killing a leopard ?Parveen Kaswan in Ranthambhore National Park.

Predators strive for energy balance. If the prey is too small, the meat obtained by catching it is not worth the effort, so it is not worth eating. Buddhism says that "the lion fights the rabbit with all its strength". In fact, according to Matt W. Hayward and Graham I. H. Kerley’s investigation on the lion’s prey preference, the rabbit is not on the lion’s prey list at all.

However, for smaller leopards, such a small prey as rabbits is still worth a taste. The infrared camera of Cat League photographed Huabei leopard with rabbits and squirrels in Shanxi. Both tigers and leopards like to prey on large carnivorous animals, but leopards can choose small prey that tigers "despise" to increase the width of their feeding niche, thus reducing competition.

Leopard F7 is holding a small rabbit cat alliance.

"Not to be taunted, but to be able to hide" is also a way. Research by Li Zhilin and others in Changbai Mountain found that leopards do not avoid plots where tigers appear, but appear more frequently, perhaps because they are attracted by prey (especially sika deer).

At the same time, leopards will use some "tricks" to avoid tigers, such as moving more during the day and staggering with nocturnal tigers. Another way is to use the terrain. Leopard often appears on the mountain ridge path, while tiger often appears near the forest road in the valley.

Leopard ?Prabukumar84/Wikimedia in Mu Dumara Tiger Reserve

In Huikaken Wildlife Sanctuary, leopards also tend to lurk at night and come out by day. Large prey such as wild boar and water deer that tigers like are mostly active at night and in the morning, while small prey such as red muntjac that leopards like are mostly active during the day. The leopards may go to the "day shift" to avoid tigers, or they may go to the "day shift" to chase red muntjac. No matter what kind, the tiger’s influence can’t be ruled out. The tiger’s competition will prompt the leopard to choose small prey, perhaps because the tiger has seized the big animals, and the leopard has no choice but to go to the "day shift" to catch the red muntjac.

More powerful behind the scenes

Behind the tit-for-tat tigers and leopards, there is a more powerful species-human beings, which puts more pressure on them.

Generally speaking, large carnivores are sensitive to human influence, but leopards are more adaptable to humans than tigers. The South China tiger was extinct in the wild, but the North China leopard persisted today. In Mumbai, leopards often appear in residential areas, hunting wild boar and dogs attracted by human garbage. As mentioned earlier, the leopards in Chiwang National Park are pushed out to the marginal areas by tigers. There are many human activities here, and the tigers can’t adapt, but they have become "shelters" for leopards.

White-spotted deer in Chiwang National Park, where there are not many prey, leads to competition between tigers and leopards. Tigers drive leopards out of the core area with the most food, but it is not so small that the number of tigers and leopards is seriously reduced.

Human grazing and hunting are inevitable even in the nature reserve, which makes the number of large herbivores decrease day by day, and the lack of food will intensify the competition between tigers and leopards. In Que Li Wu National Park, the number of large ungulates is insufficient, so leopards can only increase their prey on small animals such as pigs, badgers and civet cats to avoid direct competition with tigers.

Li Zhilin and others found that in the northern foot of Changbai Mountain, tigers and leopards rarely appeared in places where livestock appeared frequently. The grazing of cattle has greatly reduced the shrubs and herbs in the lower forest, which may cause serious survival pressure on herbivores, especially sika deer (the main prey of tigers and leopards), thus limiting the population growth of Northeast tigers and Far East leopards.

When the human influence is more serious, both will go extinct. For example, in the Nam et-phoulouy National Protected Area in Laos, habitat degradation and poaching are very serious, and there are no leopards or tigers here.

Leopard F7 is holding a little squirrel cat alliance.

"The tiger and the leopard fought!" The paragraph that looks like a marketing number actually contains ecological truth. The balance of nature is dynamic, and creatures have been competing and killing each other. The work of protecting species should not only consider the destruction of human beings, but also consider the relationship between organisms. In 2012, Australia introduced the endangered species Tasmanian devil to Maria Island. As a result, Tasmanian devil ate about 3,000 pairs of little blue penguins.

Nowadays, both tigers and leopards are seriously threatened by habitat shrinkage and fragmentation. The distribution range of leopards has been reduced to only 25%~37% of the historical distribution area, and the distribution range of tigers is only 7%. How long can they coexist peacefully in the only remaining habitat?

"China Quality News" [New car listing]

　　A few years ago, when the first generation was born, the avant-garde style was unacceptable to many people, and the much-criticized appearance continued until the second generation of the product. However, it is said that time will dilute everything, and this sentence is most appropriate for the Cayenne. By the time the new third-generation product was launched, the reviews had changed from ugly to beautiful, and consumers fully accepted the product.

　　For a traditional sports car manufacturer, Porsche’s Cayenne is a bit unreasonable, but the company’s performance proves that this concept is very correct. It is with this model that Porsche has become the most profitable manufacturer, and it once wanted to swallow the Volkswagen elephant. Of course, it doesn’t matter who ate who later. It is an indisputable fact that the Cayenne has become famous.

　　The new generation of Cayenne still uses the platform of the Q7, and it is with this excellent platform that the Cayenne can have outstanding strength. The length of the new Cayenne has increased by 5 cm and 4.2 cm, which results in a more spacious ride space, especially the rear seats, which can be adjusted forward by 18 cm, which greatly enhances the practicality of the trunk behind.

　　Let’s go back and talk about the appearance. The first generation of Cayenne should leave a mellow impression in our minds, while the second generation has added a bit of toughness and more fierceness to this foundation. Moving to the third generation of products, the designer has made some major moves, but the overall shape is highly relevant to the second generation or even the first generation. This is the role of family style.

　　The intake grille is lower and has a certain curvature. The bumper intake is changed from the original square to a trapezoidal shape. The engine cover is increased into two, and the middle is raised upward, providing more space for the engine hidden below. In the design of the tailgate, the new car has increased the curvature of the tailgate to make it look more lightweight. On the side lines, the power of the new Cayenne is strengthened by a more prominent sculptural waist line.

　　In terms of weight, the new Cayenne’s engine cover, doors, front bumper, and other parts are heavily made of aluminum alloy, which reduces the weight by about 200 kilograms, ensuring that the weight of the car is controlled at about 2.3 tons with more configuration. The lighter weight also brings lower fuel consumption.

The broadcast of a "Hurricane" set off a viewing frenzy, and the ratings and reputation were very popular. Not only did the old actors perform brilliantly, they had always been unknown in the entertainment industry, but the young actors who had a bumpy journey also left a deep impression on the audience. The plot was so memorable, and the popularity continued unabated after the end. Especially their daily lives attracted the attention of the outside world and finally tasted the sweetness of fire.

Lin Jiachuan (playing Tang Xiaolong) played billiards with his friends in the billiard room, was recognized by passers-by at a glance, and filmed a video on the social platform, causing heated discussions among netizens for a while.

From the video, Lin Jiachuan is wearing a down vest with some beards, and the overall dress is simple and casual and down-to-earth. His hair is also long, not as fierce as the cut in the drama, but more peaceful. He is quite skilled in holding the club, and even his eyes are sharp, and he usually plays pool. The netizens said: This actor doesn’t seem to have played a good person. Lin Jiachuan’s portrayal of a bad person is more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Celebrities are famous, and they are so popular wherever they go. During this period, several beautiful women fans came forward and asked to take a photo with Lin Jiachuan. Lin Jiachuan did not have the air of a star, satisfying the requirements of many beautiful women and giving people an easy-going feeling. Users said: People are ruthless and don’t talk much, and I am Brother Dao in society; Brother Dao is not close to beauty.

Lin Jiachuan played Tang Xiaolong and Gao Qiqiang as neighbors in "Hurricane". The two grew up together. They were both born at the bottom, with low education level and almost no choice in terms of career. Tang Xiaolong chose to stay with Gao Qiqiang, the leader of the underworld, to lend usury. He made the incident properly and became a right-hand man and a trustworthy person. The two did all the bad things and finally got the punishment they deserved. Lin Jiachuan’s delicate and superb acting won over the audience.

After seeing Lin Jiachuan’s real person, netizens teased and said, Brother Dao, can I borrow some usury? Brother Dao, I want to borrow some money.

Lin Jiachuan has starred in film and television works such as "Live with a Smile", "I am a Grass", "You are My Life" and other film and television works. The previous series and roles he starred in did not bring him dividends.

Lin Jiachuan graduated from the Beijing Film Academy, majoring in acting, and was in the same class as Zhang Songwen. Lin Jiachuan’s father, Lin Ping, is a well-known screenwriter, writer, and director. At first glance, he has a professional background, and coupled with his father’s status, his starting point is not low. Unfortunately, his father’s resources did not bring convenience to Lin Jiachuan, but went to the crew with Zhang Songwen to submit their resumes. They are fledglings, they are not famous, and they will not care about them without their works. It is normal for them to be closed. Disappointment is disappointment, and life still has to go on. The two can only start from the bottom as an assistant director and the other as a set note.

Although Lin Jiachuan and Zhang Songwen were on the run, they could get in touch with other actors. After they were busy with the crew, they who were interested in acting did not leave immediately and humbly asked their predecessors for advice. In those years, they starred in many works, but there was not much improvement. Lin Jiachuan did not tear, kept a low-key style and did not hype himself, but chose to improve his performance and was admitted to the graduate school of Beijing Film Academy.

If an actor wants to play a role well, it is not enough to rely on his acting skills alone. He must have a sense of awe for his profession in order to win the love of the audience. Years of hard work have finally paid off, and he finally encountered the popular drama "Hurricane". In the drama, Tang Xiaolong is a young man in his early 20s, and Lin Jiachuan’s actual age is 42 years old this year., In order to be closer to the role, he insists on fitness every day and learns boxing. The purpose is to control the "bad" side in place and perform it more naturally and vividly. In fact, opportunities do not often come, and when they meet, they must be seized. It can be seen that Lin Jiachuan is sober enough to be able to get out of the circle for no reason.

In addition to praising Lin Jiachuan’s acting skills, the comments from netizens in the comment area also carried the words and tone of the play. To explain one point, Lin Jiachuan played the bad guy Tang Xiaolong. Lin Jiachuan is unwilling to fight for his father, so he has to rely on himself, and there is no scandal to make everyone remember. The only thing he can do is to wait silently for the opportunity to come. Looking forward to Lin Jiachuan’s better works to meet the audience in the future.

Sharp eyes


Holding double swords

　　Produced by John Woo, known as the "master of violent aesthetics", directed by Su Zhaobin, and co-starring popular stars from both sides of the Taiwan Strait, such as Michelle Yeoh, Da S, Zheng Yusheng, and Guo Xiaodong, the 2010 Chinese martial arts suspense masterpiece has recently been exposed to starring ancient costume stills. In "Sword Rain", the male star Guo Xiaodong wears a long shirt with a light yellow pattern, holds two swords, and his eyes are sharp and full of murderous intent. This set of photos completely subverts Guo Xiaodong’s previous film and television works. The image of a gentle and mellow man. According to the introduction, Guo Xiaodong’s role in the film is "Zhang Renfeng" – a swordsman with superb martial arts and a mysterious background. The two swords in his hand are his personal treasures, and with these two swords in hand, no one can beat them for a while.

　　Guo Xiaodong’s martial arts design this time is the original creation of Dong Wei, a famous martial finger in Hong Kong. Guo Xiaodong uses two unusual swords to play many unprecedented and excellent moves. Zhang Renfeng, played by Guo Xiaodong, is a chivalrous, quite wise, knows how to be patient, and believes that a thing will never give up easily. Generally, it is necessary to cultivate a set of superb swordsmanship through diligence and talent. As the saying goes, "ten years to sharpen a sword", swordsmen become agile and accurate in the continuous tempering. When designing characters, the stylist skillfully combines Guo Xiaodong’s own characteristics with the characteristics of the characters in the film, which makes Guo Xiaodong’s Zhang Renfeng shine in the eyes of the director from the beginning of filming.

　　He used to play a commanding general in the movie He and Yu, but it was the first time he tried the role of a swordsman in "Sword Rain". This experience also made Guo Xiaodong feel very excited. When he was filming in Hengdian, every time there was no role for Guo Xiaodong, he would ask a teacher to teach him swordsmanship. Guo Xiaodong’s hard work and experience in many kung fu films made it easy to learn this swordsmanship. The crew revealed: "I once watched him practice swordsmanship, and I felt that he learned it very quickly, basically a little bit."

　　"The secret of success is whether you are willing or not, sweat the hottest, and use the truest heart. The first place belongs to everyone…" Last night, Andy Lau, the "love ambassador" of the Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games and a famous Hong Kong artist, sang his latest Olympic song "Everyone Is No. 1" at the one-year countdown party to the Beijing Olympic Games.

　　Yesterday morning, Andy Lau said in an interview with reporters at the Olympic Building that he personified a disabled athlete in the song MV, hoping to use music and the spirit of unremitting efforts to cheer for the upcoming Olympic Games and cheer for Chinese athletes.

　　Regarding Olympic songs, I hope to inspire everyone with songs

　　This year’s Olympic song competition began, and Andy Lau participated in the creation of the song "Everyone Is No. 1", which focuses on the disabled. "I hope this song can inspire everyone. Tell everyone that a physically disabled person can stand up again and work so hard, let alone a able-bodied person. I hope everyone can learn such a self-improvement spirit. And I hope that through this song, everyone can pay attention to these disabled athletes and give them more support."

　　Incarnate as a disabled person to complete the MV in 3 days

　　In the MV, Andy Lau plays a courier who lost confidence in life due to a broken leg in a car accident. After seeing the scenes of athletes who lost their legs or hands at the Paralympic Games struggling tenaciously on TV, he regains his strength, puts on prosthetic limbs and starts practicing running, and finally returns to work for the courier company.

　　Andy Lau said: "We completed the 9-minute MV in just 3 days. I remember one day I put on prosthetic limbs and used crutches to climb the Great Wall. I thought it was easy at first, but I didn’t expect that the steps of the Great Wall, which usually take ten minutes to walk, took a long time that day, and every step was painful. When I finished, the staff and the crowd applauded for me. I thought at the time, this applause should not be reserved for every disabled athlete who has participated in the Olympic Games. They not only climb a small staircase, but also swim with one leg and one hand, race, hurdle… They deserve applause."

　　Regarding the Olympic theme song, the theme song must be sung by the world

　　For the most impressive Olympic theme song, Andy Lau chose the classic "Hand In Hand" ("Hand In Hand"). "This song has a high rate of popularity. I really hope that the theme song of our Beijing Olympic Games can also be sung by the world like" Hand In Hand ", so that every class can accept it. The theme song can move everyone in a direct and simple way, just like the harmonious spirit expressed by" Hand In Hand "regardless of win or loss."

　　Regarding the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, Andy Lau said: "Zhang Yimou is a very creative artist. Through everyone’s efforts, I believe it will bring you an unprecedented and very special opening ceremony."

　　Becoming a volunteer has been a dream for many years

　　Participating in the Olympic Games as an Olympic volunteer has been Andy Lau’s dream for many years.

　　"It’s something I’ve been researching for a long time, but I don’t know if it will work out well. I’d be willing to volunteer, but I don’t know what to do, and if I could, I think I’d be a ball picker or sweat for them," Andy Lau said.

　　Regarding the torchbearer, I support whoever is in Hong Kong

　　The "auspicious clouds" of the Beijing Olympic torch fascinated Andy Lau: "I really want to hold that torch because I think the torch is really beautiful, and I don’t know if there is a chance to have one."

　　"I hope to become an Olympic torchbearer, and it doesn’t matter if I don’t become a torchbearer. As long as I see a Hong Kong person or a Hong Kong artist who can become a torchbearer, I will support them," Andy Lau said.

　　Regarding the equestrian competition in Hong Kong, I feel more deeply that it is part of China

　　The Olympic equestrian competition will be held in Hong Kong. Andy Lau "loves the equestrian competition and started learning to ride horses in 1986".

　　What will equestrian events bring to Hong Kong? Andy Lau believes that "it will bring Hong Kong people closer together with mainlanders, and feel more deeply that they are part of China after Hong Kong returns to the motherland."

　　Regarding the Paralympics, I will give each Hong Kong athlete a gold medal

　　In 1992, Andy Lau went to Barcelona to watch the Paralympic Games. He was moved by the self-improvement and tenacious fighting spirit of those athletes who lost their hands or feet but still struggled to run and swim. In the following years, Andy Lau participated in various public welfare activities related to the disabled whenever he had time. When it comes to these disabled athletes, Andy Lau is always very excited to describe the situation at that time, so that those who were not there can feel the spirit of these warriors. "I think because many people participate in the competition, they may not win gold medals, so after every Paralympic Games, I will give a gold medal to every disabled athlete in Hong Kong."

　　Regarding the Paralympic mascot, I have a fate with "Niu Niu"

　　Andy Lau has just released his latest album "The Impression of a Cow", and the mascot of the Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games is also a cute calf "Niu Niu". Andy Lau is the love ambassador of the Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games and is also an ox.

　　For these coincidences, Andy Lau believes that "this is fate". He believes that "Niu is diligent and determined, and athletes need to have the courage of Niu to not be afraid of losing." He also combined his personal experience and said, "My road is not so smooth. I have fallen many times and have to get up again. If this is the case, since I have time and space, I think there must be some things you need to do."

　　BEIJING, Feb. 28 (Reporter Wu Tao) In more than two months, Apple’s mobile phone broke out in succession with "deceleration gate" and "signal gate" incidents. Subsequently, Apple announced that mobile phones affected by the "speed-down door" can be replaced with batteries at preferential prices, and some models with "no service" problems can also be repaired free of charge. But is "affordable" really so easy to get? The reporter conducted an investigation.

　　Battery supply will not be available until the end of March at the earliest.

　　After the "speed-down door" incident broke out, Apple’s official announcement showed that its official maintenance points can provide preferential battery replacement service, and the battery replacement price is 218 yuan (currently adjusted to 217 yuan), which is lower than the original price of 608 yuan by 390 yuan.

　　As early as the end of January, Apple’s customer service said that the preferential price battery replacement service began in January, and the official maintenance points of Apple nationwide can be tested for free, and it can be replaced in about one hour.

　　But recently, Ms. Li told the reporter of Zhongxin. com that there is no battery at all and the battery is out of stock now. According to the information provided by Ms. Li to Zhongxin.com, the content of Apple’s after-sales email shows that "the current delivery cycle of iPhone 6 Plus is long, because this iPhone has been discontinued, and battery replacement parts will be supplied at the end of March or early April".

　　An Apple after-sales store in Beijing said in an interview with Zhongxin. com that battery replacement at a preferential price requires an appointment to queue up. Users who made an appointment to change batteries years ago (before February 16) will be in March and April. As for when they can supply them, they don’t know.

　　"We don’t have goods (batteries), which means that there are no other Apple after-sales stores in Beijing, because they are all supplied simultaneously." The above-mentioned Apple after-sales store said.

　　However, the relevant person in charge of Apple said in an interview with Zhongxin.com that most of the materials can be fully supplied now; In addition, consumers have enough time to enjoy this service. Apple’s official announcement shows that the preferential price battery replacement service lasts from the end of January to December 2018.

　　Can’t you repair it for free after the warranty period?

　　In addition to changing batteries, some consumers also reported that they encountered obstacles in seeking free maintenance when dealing with the "signal gate" problem.

　　In early February, Apple confirmed that a small number of iPhone 7 devices may display "No Service" in the status bar (even within the coverage of cellular mobile signals) due to a component failure on the motherboard.

　　Apple said that the faulty models in China are A1660, A1780. If your equipment has the above symptoms, Apple will repair it for free.

　　After learning the news, Yan Yan (pseudonym) suddenly thought that her husband’s iPhone 7 often had similar problems. "My husband’s mobile phone often had no service before. Because of the busy work, the mobile phone will be used, so it was not repaired in time."

　　After confirming that the mobile phone model is A1660, on the afternoon of February 10th, Yanyan came to Apple Xidan Joy City Store, which is Apple’s official maintenance service center. In an interview with Zhongxin. com, Yan Yan said that in the store, after she explained the relevant issues, Apple’s after-sales staff confirmed that the mobile phone had passed the warranty period and said that "occasional no service is not within the scope of free testing, unless there is no service all the time".

　　Yan Yan also said that at that time, the staff said that if it was to be repaired now, it must be paid back to the factory, and it could not be tested for free.

　　According to Apple’s official announcement, the affected iPhone 7 devices are guaranteed for two years from the date of the first retail sale of the devices.

　　It is understood that the iPhone 7 was released in September 2016, so it will be moved back two years according to this calculation. In principle, as long as the affected models and production date conditions in Apple’s announcement are met, you can enjoy free maintenance, regardless of whether it has passed the warranty period.

　　Free maintenance depends not only on the model.

　　For the problem that it meets the model but can’t be repaired for free, the reporter contacted Apple Xidan Joy City Store by telephone. Some staff said that A1660 is a large batch, and which equipment can be repaired for free can only be determined after they have tested it. He also said that consumers will bring mobile phones that meet the relevant models to test whether they meet the free maintenance conditions for free.

　　Apple’s official announcement shows that the production date of the affected equipment is between September 2016 and February 2018. However, the above-mentioned staff said that they don’t look at the production date, and they don’t know what the engineers specifically tested, but only when they can test it will they know whether it is within the scope of free maintenance.

　　For an iPhone 7, the date of production is simply unknown to ordinary consumers. What should be tested specifically? Is there any more transparent information in this regard? In this regard, Apple’s official responsibility said that because the content related to the iPhone serial number is customer privacy, it is recommended that consumers with such problems should first test it through official channels.

　　The above-mentioned person in charge of Apple also stressed that the actual situation of each case is different. If the consumer’s equipment has such a situation, Apple will repair it for free, but before providing any service, the technician will check the iPhone to verify whether the equipment meets the conditions of this plan.

Can someone explode in Tik Tok, Xiaohongshu and bilibili?

A creator named @Thurman Cat Cup (hereinafter referred to as "Cat Cup") did it.

Cat Cup is a young girl who has 1331w, 401w and 240w fans in Tik Tok, Xiaohongshu and bilibili respectively, and she has the characteristic of "fire wherever she goes".

How "amazing" is a cup of cat? Why can the content of her creation be "fire" everywhere? This time, the operation agency will take you to see what "traffic passwords" are hidden behind a cup of fire.

01、How "amazing" is a cup of cat?

A toast to the cat is not new to online celebrity, but it has been a "debut" for a long time.

According to the available information, Cat Cup began to update Tik Tok in April 2020, and always shared what she heard and saw in her life in a funny way.At present, it has accumulated 1331w Tik Tok fans, and the video likes about 20w. From time to time, there will be a million-like explosion.

If she is only a "small fire" in Tik Tok, it can be said that she is a real "explosion fire" in Xiaohongshu and bilibili.

In January, 2021, Cat Cup started to update the content to Xiaohongshu synchronously, and * videos won 16w praise and became an instant hit. It is a "basic operation" to get 5w+ likes for subsequent videos, and some even reach 20w+.

What is this concept? You know, the little red book notes can reach 1w praise, even if it is a "big explosion", and 100w+ fans are already considered as head bloggers.One of the hottest online celebrity at the moment.Yi Mengling　There are also 380w+ little red book fans. The data of a cup of cats even exceeds that of some stars.

In June, 2021, Cat Cup settled in bilibili again.Bilibili is another content distribution channel of "Cat Cup", but just as a "distribution", the cat cup has increased by 240w, and the video broadcast volume has easily exceeded one million.

Not only is it an "explosive output machine", but the commercial liquidity of a cat cup can also be called "tough".

According to the data of thousands of melons, the price of a cup of cat in Xiaohongshu is 5w/ piece. In the past month (September 19-October 18, 2022), seven business notes were released. Just relying on the little red book, the cat got 35w advertising revenue in about one month.

What’s even more amazing is that Cat Cup’s real main business is a fashion designer, and she has also created her own brand and opened her own studio."Being self-media" seems to be only a part of people’s work. Just doing a "sideline", you have achieved millions of gains. ……

02、The contents of a cat’s cup,Where the hell is the cow?

What kind of content has Cat Cup created, which can become popular on three platforms?

Judging from the appearance conditions, a cup of cats can completely take the route of Yan value bloggers.White skin, big eyes and oval face, a cup of * for a cat is a proper beauty, but people just "rely on talent instead of face".

1) Find the pleasing track of "sharing interesting things in life"

Cat Cup once studied fashion design when studying in France.

In her earliest updated video in Tik Tok, she talked with you about interesting things when she was studying and living in France, such as "How drag the courier in Paris", "How hot it is in summer without air conditioning in France" and "How difficult it is to see a dermatologist in Paris".

After that, the pet guinea pig raised by the cat in a cup also became her video material; By October 2020, when the cat returned to her hometown of Guangdong, she began to share more stories of her family, such as "When my parents became obsessed with using online hot words" and "Grandma traveled to Paris".

Of course, the topic of a cat cup is not limited to these.It seems that every little thing in life can be her material, from "spitting out cockroaches in Guangdong" and "spitting out cooling in Guangdong" to "recalling the class teacher in school", a cat can make them into paragraphs with a cup.

There are three reasons why "sharing interesting things in life" is a pleasing track:

*, everyone’s life experience has *.The content of a cat’s cup is closely related to its own environment, so it is not easy to be replaced. In other words, it is difficult to find another creator whose content is similar to that of a cat cup on the whole network.

Second, the "Funny Life" track is suitable for Tik Tok, Xiaohongshu and bilibili, and can satisfy the "appetite" of users on all platforms.After all, brushing jokes is the source of happiness for most contemporary people.

According to the data released by the Tik Tok Creators’ Conference in August this year, life records account for 21% of the content with an average daily broadcast volume of over 100 million in Tik Tok;

Bilibili’s 2021 financial report shows that the living area is a content area for users to visit;

Not to mention the little red book, slogan is "marking my life".

Third, more importantly, the content of "Funny Life" is very suitable for product placement and is also favored by advertisers.Imagine that a person’s life will be exposed to various products, so when sharing life, Amway’s good things will not seem abrupt.

Like a cat, when chatting, you can naturally cue the advertisement. For example, when she talked about "doing group homework and staying up all day while studying abroad", she was caught off guard and switched to Amway SK-II skin care products.

2) The story is very fast, which makes users feel "cool".

It is not enough to share interesting things in life. If a story is told as a boring running account, users will not buy it.

The video of a cup of cat is usually less than one and a half minutes long, which is already a "medium video" compared with other "ten-second videos" in Tik Tok.

However, the narrative rhythm of a cup of cat is super fast.As a funny blogger, there is often a punchline in her videos every 5 seconds.Coupled with exaggerated expressions, accents and sound effects, the funny effect is further exaggerated.

The operation agency takes the explosion video "The Old Parisian Lady of Steel", which was praised by Tik Tok for 145w, as an example, and takes everyone to see how the cat cup is described:

At the beginning, I mentioned that "red-lipped high heels are standard, plus nail stockings and earrings, holding a small bag from the Qing Dynasty in my left hand and holding a Chihuahua in my right hand", and I first outlined the image of a "fashionable old lady" for everyone;

"I don’t know if I should give up my seat to her, and she looks more energetic than me", "The old lady can only wear skirts and shoes in winter, and all the Chihuahuas are wearing less than me", and then throw two jokes;

"The 90-year-old lady principal of our Fashion Design Institute started smoking in the middle of class and played with false teeth; Sometimes students are asked if they want a cigarette. " When describing this passage, the cat imitated the headmaster’s every move with a cup of hands, and switched back and forth between French, Mandarin and Cantonese, which directly filled the effect.

A cup of cat with vivid imitation makes the user feel more substituted when listening to the story, and throws stalks again and again in one and a half minutes, so that the user can see it "cool" and unconsciously brush up a video.

3) The contrast of creating a "beautiful and funny woman" is touching.

What makes the cat cup more successful is that it has created a full-fledged person: a beautiful and funny rich woman.

There are many beautiful women, many funny women and many rich women, but few people are beautiful, funny and rich.

A cup of cat looks outstanding; It is a "returnee" studying abroad; I’m also a fashion designer and the founder of an independent brand … All these elements add up to make people feel that this should be a "high-cold strong woman".

But a cup of cat has nothing to do with the word "high cold".

In the video, Cat Cup often makes some funny expressions and actions regardless of personal image, and once became famous by "imitating guinea pigs to eat vegetables" (Little Red Book was praised for 29w, and bilibili’s broadcast volume exceeded 600w).

It is the strong contrast between behavior and image that makes cats have countless cups of powder, and fans are extremely sticky.Many fans gave the cat a cup and nicknamed it "Guinea pig" (because it was too similar to imitate the guinea pig), and also created a unique stalk "Refuse the animal performance".

More interestingly, there are many bilibili fans who have made videos specifically around a cup of cat: giving the cat a cup of cp, saying that when they see a guinea pig, they think of a cup of cat, and analyzing the appearance of her guinea pig. ……

When fans always joke about "being like a guinea pig", the cat also chooses to take the initiative to take a drink. Presumably, fans like her, largely because she is "grounded".

4) According to the characteristics of the platform, adjust the content appropriately.

After observing the contents of Cat Cup in Tik Tok, Xiaohongshu and bilibili,A cup of cat will actually adjust the details according to the characteristics of different platforms, not just a simple "one-click distribution".

For example, the cover of a shaking video of a cat’s cup is to intercept a picture in the video, revealing only the face and subtitles; However, Cat Cup will make another video cover specially for Little Red Book and bilibili, which not only shows exaggerated expressions, but also contains some keywords related to the theme.

Tik Tok on the left, Little Red Book in the middle and bilibili on the right.

After making these adjustments, the operating agency speculated that:Tik Tok’s presentation is a single-column information flow, emphasizing "catching people’s eyes within 3 seconds", and the video cover is relatively less important; Little Red Book and bilibili are presented in a double-column information flow, and the cover directly determines the click-through rate, so it is necessary to show the key information in the cover.

For another example, although the content published on the three platforms is roughly the same, Cat Cup will make some content specifically for a certain platform. For example, in the little red book, the cat will occasionally publish some pictures and texts, either to bask in beautiful photos, or to share accessories and costumes to drain their own brand stores. But these contents were not published in Tik Tok and bilibili.

The operator speculated that, first, it was because Xiaohongshu was more suitable for publishing graphic and grass content; Secondly, because the portraits of the audience on each platform are different, their preferences are different.

According to the statistics of flying melon, the proportion of men and women in the audience of cats shaking audio and video is basically the same; And 80-90% of the audience of Little Red Book Notes are women (data comes from thousands of melons). Then planting grass in the little red book will naturally have a better effect; If it is posted in Tik Tok and bilibili, it may be "counterproductive".

03、tag

A cup of cat can explode fire, which has some innate advantages. Her face value, her rich life experience and her success in real life all give her extra points.

But what the creators can learn from her is whether they have the ability to show their own selves to the audience.

Cats can always observe the interesting details of life after drinking a cup, and then describe what they have heard and seen in an interesting and vivid way with a style full of personality (such as nagging, funny imitation and multi-language switching) and present it to the audience.

There are millions of beautiful women in online celebrity, but a cup of cat can outshine others.Perhaps this is the case, the beautiful skin is the same, and the interesting soul is one in a million.
