It will be the top priority to "brush the face" under the 5G tuyere to speed up and increase the temperature to strengthen the security line.

  A few years ago, "brushing your face" was used by friends to tease each other. In a blink of an eye, eating by "face" has become a reality. Previously, the first smart subway in Guangzhou achieved "brushing face". Under the 5G tuyere, the major payment giants are gearing up, and the payment for brushing their faces begins to speed up.

  Brush face payment makes people’s lives more convenient.

  Bus card, change, mobile phone … … You don’t need to bring them all. In Guangzhou, just brush your face by subway! According to media reports, recently, Guangzhou’s first smart subway station was opened, and passengers can brush their faces without feeling the barrier. Face recognition is completed within 300 milliseconds, and 40 people can pass every minute.

  Guiyang, as an inland capital city, opened the experience scene of subway face-brushing payment to the public as early as this year’s Expo. The general feedback from the public is, "It’s too fast and convenient to brush your face for seconds!"

  At present, Guiyang is taking advantage of its own big data development to implement the application project of public transportation brush face. It is expected that by the end of 2019, some lines of Guiyang subway and bus will try to pay for brush face. Guiyang will gradually build a face-brushing consumption ecology, and realize "one registration, face brushing in the whole city" in the urban area.

  I don’t know when it started, but face-brushing payment has penetrated into people’s daily life.

  Xin Yang, deputy director of the National Engineering Laboratory of Disaster Recovery Technology and professor of Cyberspace Security College of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, said that from the original KFC KPRO restaurant to today’s pharmacies, supermarkets, convenience stores and many other offline retail scenes, more than one million consumers across the country have taken the lead in experiencing the convenience of paying by brushing their faces. At the same time, in the field of "internet plus government affairs", users in more than 170 cities have completed identity verification by brushing their faces, and handled matters such as provident fund withdrawal and tax inquiry online.

  The era of brush face payment is gradually approaching.

  "Brush face" under 5G tuyere speeds up and warms up.

  Up to now, with the advent of the 5G era and the deep integration of technologies such as internet plus, AI intelligence, cloud computing and Internet of Things, the payment for face brushing has started to speed up and warm up.

  Xinyang believes that compared with scanning code payment, face-brushing payment will bring more convenience to people, such as easy payment in the case of carrying heavy objects; Moreover, due to the superposition of AR capabilities, the payment scenario is more interesting.

  On the other hand, in the face of increasing labor costs, face-brushing payment can better open up sources and reduce expenses for businesses.

  The daily workload of a face brushing machine is equivalent to three cashiers. If 10 consumers check out at the same time, the traditional mode takes 56 seconds, while the face brushing only takes 10 seconds.

  In Xinyang’s view, the greater imagination of face-brushing payment lies in its drainage ability and interactive marketing. "This is a new traffic portal in the future. Before and after payment, merchants can make unlimited extensions, such as combining consumption records and preferences to recommend suitable products to consumers. This is the real value of brush face payment and the future development direction. "

  Xinyang predicts that Ali and Tencent are spending huge sums of money to promote and research the face-brushing payment technology, and the whole industry has great development prospects. In the next five years, face-brushing payment will show a spurt of growth and reshape the ecology of the entire payment industry and retail catering industry.

  Strengthening the security line will be the top priority.

  By uploading your own high-definition photos, you can replace the face of the protagonist in the classic film and television drama clips with your own face and perform with your beloved idol … … A few days ago, an APP called "Face Change" became popular on the Internet, which triggered a network carnival. However, because users need to blink and look up when they change their faces, which is similar to the face information collected when they pay by brushing their faces, the public can’t help but ask: At the moment when face-washing payment is becoming more and more popular, will the small video after "face-changing" fall into the hands of others, will it endanger the security of face-washing payment?

  Xinyang said that compared with fingerprints and irises, human face is a biological feature with weak privacy, so the threat to citizens’ privacy is particularly worthy of attention when paying for it. "No matter what kind of face recognition technology, it can be cracked. Whether it is worth cracking depends only on the cost and benefits of cracking. "

  Xinyang said that it is precisely because of the lack of mobile phone that the use of face information becomes easier. In the era of bio-payment opened by face-brushing technology, how to launch a fierce battle of attack and defense against new technologies, minimize the loss of interests of businesses and consumers, and make the security line stronger and stronger will be the top priority for the future development of face-brushing payment.

  An embarrassing fact is that due to the imperfection of equipment maturity, customer acceptance and payment security, face-brushing payment has not achieved large-scale popularization in China. At present, users prefer to use relatively safe mobile phones to pay. (Correspondent He Chun, reporter He Xinghui)

IFLYTEK Spark upgrades its code ability and multimodal ability to build everyone’s AI assistant.

On August 15th, the iFLYTEK Spark Cognitive Model V2.0 upgrade conference arrived as scheduled. Liu Qingfeng, Chairman of Iflytek, and Liu Cong, Dean of the Research Institute, released the code capability and multimodal capability upgrade, and at the same time released and upgraded a number of applications and products equipped with V2.0 capability of iFLYTEK Spark Cognitive Model.

"Code data can enhance the’ wisdom’ of cognitive big model, and code ability is an important symbol of the intelligence of cognitive big model." Liu Qingfeng said that code ability is an effective means to build and link the digital world, which can greatly reduce the threshold and cost of starting a business in the digital economy.

This time, iFLYTEK Spark 2.0 upgraded the code ability in five dimensions, including code generation, code completion, code error correction, code interpretation, unit test generation, etc., so that ordinary people don’t need to be programming experts, but they can improve development efficiency and realize related entrepreneurship by exerting their imagination and based on their knowledge of application scenarios.

In the live demonstration, we used Python to draw a red heart line, draw a three-dimensional diagram of the saddle equation and set up a gradient color, and generate a "greedy snake" with code … "iFLYTEK Spark" was completed one by one, and even the need to use a small video as an expression pack could be quickly solved.

According to Liu Qingfeng, according to HumanEval, a public test set of code ability built by OpenAI, the effect of Spark V1.5 Python language is only 41 points, and V2.0 has reached 61 points, which is close to ChatGPT. According to the test set of real-life code usage scenarios constructed by the State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Intelligence, the dimension of code generation and completion has surpassed that of ChatGPT. According to the plan, iFLYTEK Spark Code will surpass ChatGPT in all dimensions on October 24th this year, and benchmark GPT-4 in the first half of next year.

Programming assistant iFlyCode is online

The upgrading of iFLYTEK Spark code capability not only enables ordinary people to program and develop, but also enables developers to improve efficiency. At the scene, the intelligent programming assistant iFlyCode1.0 was officially released. In Liu Cong, the function of "handwriting in the air" has been realized immediately without writing a single line iFlyCode after a few simple steps of Prompt. In the past, it took even experienced engineers half a day to complete it, but now it only takes a few minutes.

Live demonstration of iFlyCode function (Photo courtesy of Iflytek from Yangguang. com)

According to the statistics of more than 2,000 employees tested and used iFlyCode1.0 in iFLYTEK internal R&D efficiency platform within one month, in some typical scenarios, the code adoption rate reached 30%, the coding efficiency increased by 30%, and the comprehensive efficiency increased by 15%.

"Zero code" ability can also build a digital campus.

The upgrading of iFLYTEK Spark’s code ability, on the one hand, helps professional programmers to improve their efficiency, get rid of tedious routine work, and exert greater creative value, on the other hand, helps non-professional "Little White" enter the code world with zero threshold.

At the press conference, Iflytek released an industrial application case of code ability: teachers with "zero programming foundation" can also use the educational digital pedestal as a development assistant to meet the individual needs and customized development in the digital transformation of school management.

"Please help me build a school leaving management application. Parents can help students apply for leaving school. The application information needs to be approved by the class teacher." Only a simple instruction is needed to complete the application construction on the digital education base. After the voice input of parents’ leave, it becomes an automatic leave note, which is approved by the class teacher online. Teachers can see the list of students consulted today on the class board synchronously, and can also complete the statistics of school leavers under limited conditions according to their needs.

Liu Qingfeng said that the code capability is not only applied to the digital base of education in iFLYTEK, but also widely used in hospitals, universities, enterprises, governments and other different institutions, and it can be built quickly and presented quickly at low cost through iFlyCode.

Multi-modal capability applies multiple scenarios.

Code ability is the key dimension to support the wisdom of cognitive big model, and multimodal ability is the only way to realize general artificial intelligence.

On the same day, Liu Qingfeng released the multimodal ability of iFLYTEK Spark, and iFLYTEK Spark upgraded its image description, image question and answer, image recognition creation, text generation and virtual human synthesis, resulting in "iFLYTEK Zhizuo 2.0" which can create videos, "Spark Teacher’s Assistant" which can help teachers generate courseware with one click, "Spark Language Partner 2.0" which is oriented to students’ oral practice, and so on. "iFLYTEK Spark’s multimodal ability is a measurable model in the industry.

Liu Qingfeng said that at present, multimodal capability has been widely used in education, medical care, industry, automobiles, robots and other fields. It can obtain more and more data from the real world, and has learning, training and upgrading at the product terminal, including more flexible and autonomous industrial robots, better autonomous driving, and companion robots entering the home.

"Multimodal capability is also Iflytek’s established long-term strategy of artificial intelligence technology." In the last three years, Iflytek has won 17 international authoritative evaluation champions in the multimodal field. In early 2022, iFLYTEK released the "iFLYTEK Super Brain 2030 Plan" which includes core competencies such as multimodal perception, deep understanding, multidimensional expression and sports intelligence, so that robots with knowledge, good learning and evolution can enter every family. "With the opportunity of general artificial intelligence, we will strive to build everyone’s AI assistant and release everyone’s unlimited dreams."

Building a new ecology of general artificial intelligence

"The development of artificial intelligence in China is by no means the mission of a single enterprise or a single research institute, but the opportunity of the whole society. The development of ecology determines the prosperity of the industry." Liu Qingfeng said at the press conference that since the release of iFLYTEK Spark on May 6, the number of developers has increased by 282% year-on-year, and the number one in the developer industry distribution is "enterprise service", "indicating that the big model has really begun to be empowered to just need applications."

In addition to the original initiatives such as opening up capabilities, co-construction of industries, and dual-innovation empowerment, Iflytek announced at the press conference that it would further open up the assistant ecosystem, plug-in market and Spark Camp, and build a new ecosystem of general artificial intelligence with the developer team.

Guqin producer in Guangxi farmhouse: Go to Taiwan Province to bring his craft back to his hometown.

  BEIJING, May 16 (Xinhua) Title: Guqin producer in Guangxi farmhouse: Going to Taiwan Province to bring his craft back to his hometown.

  Author Liu Juncong Huang Lijie

  In a field manor in Liujiang District, Liuzhou City, Guangxi Province, firewood for cooking by the fireside is sizzling. At this time, Wei Xing held a brush and skillfully painted the guqin blank with "big paint" over and over again. This is a natural paint made from plants, and only the traditional guqin production will go through this important process step.

  Born in 1985, Wei Xing is a guqin producer who has been studying guqin production for more than three years. She studied guzheng in the Conservatory of Music at the university, and never imagined that she would get involved with the guqin one day and become the inheritor of the production skills of this ancient musical instrument.

  In the 2008 Olympic Games, an ethereal guqin piece "The Legacy of Taikoo" echoed over the "Bird’s Nest" Stadium, attracting the attention of the whole world, including Wei Xing, who just graduated from college. "At that time, I was fascinated by its unique timbre. Before the song of the Olympic Games was played, almost no one knew guqin, and many people would mistake guqin for guzheng, so it was very difficult to learn it. " Wei Xing said.

  As a last resort, Wei Xing at that time could only teach himself to play guqin with the help of relevant textbooks. With the rapid development of playing skills, Wei Xing became more and more fond of this ancient instrument. In 2015, while visiting relatives in Taiwan Province, Wei Xing met Lin Lizheng, a well-known local guqin producer. This coincidence made guqin completely change Wei Xing’s life.

  "At that time, I wanted to worship Master Lin as a teacher and learn the production process of Guqin. But master Lin watched a girl film of mine, but he didn’t agree anyway. In the end, it was a long time before the master reluctantly accepted me as an apprentice. After I really got started, I discovered that guqin production is not an easy task. " Wei Xing said.

  Wei Xing said that the production of guqin should strictly follow the tradition and the process is complicated. Just the process of painting surface polishing needs to be polished step by step and repeatedly by hand. "The key point of this process is not to use force, but to polish it gently. Brothers and sisters joked that they should’ not eat for three days’ before starting polishing, so the intensity is just right. " Weixing laughed.

  The tedious and boring production process, coupled with the master’s high-standard production requirements, made this girl who had left her hometown once think of giving up. However, an extremely harsh rebuke from the master made Wei Xing’s psychological defense completely collapse.

  "At that time, I immediately wanted to pack my bags and go home. But then I calmed down and thought about it carefully. If I don’t learn this skill, then this instrument is very likely to be lost in the future. " With the comfort of brothers and sisters, Wei Xing picked up the carving knife again. "Learning to make guqin is also tempering and practicing, which has taught me meditation." She said.

  Three years later, Wei Xing bid farewell to his master and classmates, and returned to his hometown successfully. Wei Xing, who had a "garden dream" since childhood, rented a farmhouse quadrangle in the suburbs of Liuzhou and engaged in guqin production in a beautiful and secluded environment every day. She said that it takes one to two years to make each guqin. At present, she has completed a number of customized guqin works, and the price ranges from 10,000 yuan.

  It is understood that the history of guqin can be traced back to the pre-Qin period, and it has a history of at least 3,000 years. Its timbre is low and its aftertaste is long. As a musical instrument with high cultural status in ancient China, Guqin has been a bridge for many scholars to exchange ideas since ancient times, and it is known as "scholars never withdraw their harps and instruments without reason".

  After years of silence, Guqin has once again attracted the attention and love of China people, and has gradually become one of the teaching subjects in major music colleges in recent two years. "The domestic environment is slowly getting better, and more and more people are beginning to learn about this ancient musical instrument from me. I am glad to see that it has not been forgotten." Wei Xing said.

  At present, Wei Xing has also opened guqin playing classes for adults and teenagers, so that more people can feel the charm of the voice of the ages. "Everyone likes it very much, and I will try my best to teach them playing skills. I don’t want this instrument to be lost in our generation." Wei Xing said. (End)

Near the Spring Festival, e-commerce "New Year Festival" is full of tricks, and cross-border e-commerce is becoming more and more busy. In recent years, China has become the largest and fastest-growing cross-border e-commerce market in the world. Consumers can easily "buy globally" and enjoy high-quality products from all over the world without leaving home. With China’s opening wider and wider, relevant departments have successively issued substantial favorable policies, and with the escort of the Electronic Commerce Law, cross-border e-commerce is expected to enter a new period of healthy and rapid development.

The market potential is growing.

The strength of cross-border e-commerce has further enhanced the internationalization of double 11. According to the data of the Ministry of Commerce, from November 1 to 11, 2018, the sales of cross-border e-commerce imported goods exceeded 30 billion yuan, and a well-known domestic e-commerce platform introduced nearly 19,000 overseas brand goods from 75 countries and regions to participate in the promotion.

The huge capacity of the domestic demand market and the development of the Internet have enabled domestic consumers to gradually develop the habit of "Haitao" through cross-border e-commerce. Many heads of multinational companies said that with the improvement of China residents’ income level and the change of consumption concept, the potential of China market will only grow.

According to the statistics of E-commerce Research Center, in the first half of 2018, the scale of cross-border e-commerce import transactions in China reached 1.03 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 19.4%. By the end of June 2018, there were 75 million users who regularly conducted cross-border online shopping in China.

The development of cross-border e-commerce has also brought new business models and new operating systems for the operation, management and service of the entire logistics system. In this regard, international logistics companies feel particularly deeply. Chen Wenhong, managing director of FedEx China Marketing Department, said earlier that in recent years, the growth rate of China’s imports is much higher than that of its exports in both B2B (business-to-business) and B2C (business-to-customer) fields, making it the fastest growing market for cross-border e-commerce in the world.

A series of timely and effective reform measures have also promoted the growth of cross-border e-commerce. For example, the the State Council executive meeting held in November 2018 decided to continue and improve cross-border electronic commerce’s retail import policy and expand its scope of application, so as to stimulate consumption potential.

E-commerce platform seizes opportunities

With the increasingly important role of cross-border e-commerce in China’s foreign trade, major e-commerce companies also seize the opportunity to compete for layout. During the China International Import Expo held last year, Ali, Suning, JD.COM and other e-commerce platforms announced their import plans one after another, and took the opportunity to purchase goods and explore sources of goods. Among them, Suning has released a three-year global procurement plan of 10 billion euros, and will conduct large-scale procurement on a global scale. More than half of the procurement amount will be used for high-quality lifestyle products such as home appliances, mothers and babies, and supermarket beauty department stores.

At the same time, the vigorous development of cross-border e-commerce in China has also provided overseas businesses with new channels to enter the China market. Many internationally renowned brands regard cross-border e-commerce enterprises in China as their preferred trading partners in China. Experts said that China consumers’ import consumption has gradually become normal, and the imported consumer groups are younger, which provide a solid foundation and new opportunities for the faster development of cross-border e-commerce in China.

It is not only e-commerce companies that seize opportunities, but also local governments. In July 2018, the State Council agreed to establish cross-border electronic commerce Comprehensive Experimental Zone in 22 cities including Beijing, Hohhot and Shenyang, and actively deepen the "streamline administration, delegate power, strengthen regulation and improve services" reform in foreign trade. As of 2018, the number of cross-border e-commerce comprehensive experimental zones in China has reached 35. Relevant reform measures have been introduced in many pilot areas to realize the liberalization, facilitation and standardized development of cross-border electronic commerce.

Industry insiders predict that the central and western regions will become the development focus of cross-border e-commerce in the future, and the "Belt and Road" countries will be the focus of cross-border e-commerce development and open a new channel for supply-side reform.

Favorable policies encourage development

With the implementation of favorable policies related to cross-border e-commerce, the development of cross-border e-commerce in China is expected to enter a "golden age". The E-commerce Law, which has been implemented since New Year’s Day this year, clearly states that the state promotes the development of cross-border electronic commerce, establishes and improves the management systems of customs, taxation, entry-exit inspection and quarantine, payment and settlement, etc., which are adapted to the characteristics of cross-border electronic commerce, improves the facilitation level of all links in cross-border electronic commerce, and supports cross-border electronic commerce platform operators to provide cross-border electronic commerce with warehousing, logistics, customs declaration, inspection and other services.

At the executive meeting of the State Council held at the end of 2018, it was pointed out that on the basis of zero tariff within the limit for the goods in the cross-border e-commerce retail import list, and the import value-added tax and consumption tax are levied at 70% of the statutory taxable amount, the scope of goods enjoying preferential policies will be further expanded, and 63 tax items with large demand from the public will be added. In addition, the Ministry of Finance, the General Administration of Customs and the State Administration of Taxation jointly issued a notice saying that the tax policy for cross-border e-commerce retail imports will be adjusted, the upper limit of commodity quotas enjoying preferential tax policies will be raised, and the scope of the list will be expanded. The notice will be implemented as of January 1, 2019.

Experts pointed out that these measures will accelerate the development of new formats and new models such as cross-border e-commerce, help improve the level of openness, promote the steady growth of foreign trade import and export and new kinetic energy growth, and increase consumption and employment.

While encouraging and guiding development, we should also strengthen the supervision of cross-border e-commerce. According to the statistics of the State Administration of Market Supervision, in recent years, complaints and reports involving cross-border e-commerce have been on the rise, with milk powder, food, diapers, health care products and cosmetics having the highest number of complaints. How to make consumers feel at ease is a question that cross-border e-commerce must answer.

In this regard, the e-commerce law makes it clear that e-commerce operators engaged in cross-border electronic commerce should abide by the laws and administrative regulations on import and export supervision and management. The the State Council executive meeting also made it clear that the responsibilities of cross-border e-commerce enterprises, platforms, payment and logistics service providers will be strengthened in accordance with the principle of inclusive and prudent supervision, and the quality and safety monitoring and risk prevention and control of commodities will be strengthened.

Constructing and perfecting the charging system and speeding up the popularization and application of ETC

Strive to basically cancel the national highway provincial toll stations before the end of the year-
Constructing and perfecting the charging system and speeding up the popularization and application of ETC

On May 10th, the State Council held a routine briefing on the State Council policy to interpret the implementation plan of deepening the reform of toll road system and canceling provincial toll stations on expressways. Dai Dongchang, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Transport, and Wu Dejin, Director of the Highway Bureau of the Ministry of Transport, introduced the cancellation of provincial toll stations on expressways.

Dai Dongchang said that the Ministry of Transport, on the basis of comprehensively summarizing the experience of pilot cancellation of provincial toll stations on expressways between Jiangsu and Shandong, Sichuan and Chongqing in 2018, has studied and put forward the Implementation Plan for Deepening the Reform of Toll Road System and Cancelling Provincial Toll Stations on Expressways, which has been submitted to the the State Council executive meeting for deliberation and adoption. The overall requirement of the "Proposal" is to basically cancel the provincial toll stations of national expressways within two years in accordance with deepening the reform of the toll road system, improving the efficiency of the comprehensive transportation network and reducing the logistics cost, and strive to basically cancel the provincial toll stations of national expressways before the end of 2019 to realize the fast toll collection without stopping.

Dai Dongchang said that in May last year, the the State Council executive meeting deployed the task of promoting the cancellation of provincial toll stations on expressways. The Ministry of Transport chose Jiangsu, Shandong, Sichuan, Chongqing and other provinces and cities to try first, and took the lead in canceling all 15 provincial toll stations on expressways at the end of 2018. According to statistics, under normal traffic conditions, the average time for buses to pass through provincial boundaries is reduced from 15 seconds to 2 seconds, and the time for trucks to pass through provincial boundaries is reduced from 29 seconds to 3 seconds.

"The cancellation of provincial toll stations is a complex systematic project, and it is the reconstruction of charging mode and charging technology. To complete this task, we need to do a good job in four aspects. " Dai Dongchang said: First, speed up the construction and improvement of the expressway toll collection system. It mainly includes the clearing and settlement at the central and local levels, the upgrading of the operation management system, the standardization construction and transformation of the hardware and software of toll stations, toll lanes and ETC portal systems, and the security reinforcement of the system network.

The second is to speed up the popularization and application of ETC electronic toll collection system. "The cancellation of provincial toll stations is not the cancellation of highway tolls, but the realization of fast charging without stopping through technical means. Vehicle identification, path recording and non-stop charging mainly rely on ETC vehicle-mounted devices, so it is very important to accelerate the popularization of ETC. " Dai Dongchang said that it will speed up the installation of ETC in-vehicle devices for existing vehicles free of charge, and by the end of 2019, the proportion of vehicles at the entrance of expressways using electronic non-stop express toll collection systems will reach over 90%; Promote the front installation of automobiles and upgrade and optimize ETC vehicle-mounted devices; Expand service functions and encourage the application of ETC in car-related places such as parking lots; Realize the sharing of motor vehicle registration information and facilitate the installation of ETC vehicle-mounted devices.

The third is to revise and improve laws and regulations. Dai Dongchang said that the cancellation of provincial toll stations on expressways is a change in the national expressway operation mode and toll technology route. It is urgent to revise and improve the Highway Law and the Regulations on the Management of Toll Roads, optimize the free passage of minibuses on major holidays and the "green passage" for the transportation of fresh agricultural products, and clean up and standardize the local toll reduction policies involving parking inspection and affecting fairness and efficiency. It is necessary to adjust the toll charging method of trucks, install ETC vehicle-mounted devices for trucks, and realize the fast passage of trucks without stopping.

The fourth is to promote the stock of government toll roads in bond swap. It is reported that in order to prevent and resolve the debt risk of toll roads, the Ministry of Transport will cooperate with relevant departments to increase the issuance of special bonds for toll roads, promote local government bonds to replace the existing debts of government toll roads that meet the policy requirements, optimize the debt structure, and prevent and resolve debt risks.

Dai Dongchang introduced the specific time schedule for the implementation of the task: various schemes and requirements, including technical standards, overall design scheme, engineering construction scheme, etc., will be issued before the end of May; Complete the construction of the project from June to October, including the renovation of toll lanes, the renovation of toll stations, and the upgrading of software and hardware; In November, the joint debugging test was started, so as to achieve the conditions for switching between the old and new systems before the end of December. On this basis, timely organize the implementation of system switching to ensure the completion of the goal of basically canceling the provincial toll stations of national expressways before the end of the year.

Chen Xiaoqi: Being "squeezed" into the pop music scene, 40 years later, "the sound of the waves remains the same"

"The sound of the waves sounded, and the beautiful Jiangnan picture slowly opened;

Please take a wupeng boat, drink daughter’s red, and step on Qingshi Lane in the south of the Yangtze River.

Please turn into a poem of Tang and Song Dynasties and linger among the lotus flowers reflecting the sun in the south of the Yangtze River.

Please walk into Yangzhou with fireworks in March and Jiangnan in your dreams, and moisten our tired hearts in the journey of life with the humanistic atmosphere and ancient historical clouds of Jiangnan water town.

Let the charm of the south of the Yangtze River ignite the eternal heart lamp of your thoughts and friendship, illuminate our wonderful music journey tonight, and sing the eternal soul song together. "

On the evening of April 24th, accompanied by a poetic opening speech by the host Ren Luyu, "Beijing Concert of Chen Xiaoqi’s Classic Works" was sung in poly theatre.

Speaking of Chen Xiaoqi, many people may not be familiar with it. But mentioning his works "The Sound of the Waves Still", "I don’t want to say" and "How are you, Big Brother" is the memory of several generations. As a songwriter, Chen Xiaoqi is a name that has to be mentioned in the history of China pop music.

James J.S.Wong, a ci writers from Hong Kong, once said before his death: There is Chen Xiaoqi on the mainland, so there is no need to go to Hong Kong.

Chen Xiaoqi

Chen Xiaoqi, a songwriter in China, is a first-class writer in literary creation. At present, he is the executive vice chairman of the China Musicians Association Pop Music Society, the vice chairman of the Chinese Music Literature Society, the chairman of the Guangdong Pop Music Association and the vice chairman of the Guangdong Writers Association.

Since 1983, nearly 2,000 works have been published, of which about 200 have won the Golden Bell Award, Golden Eagle Award, China Top Ten Golden Melody Award and other awards.

Representative works: The Sound of the Waves Is Still the Same, How Are You Big Brother, Daughter Red in 1999, I don’t want to talk about it, Plateau Red, Cheer for Today, Baqiao Willow, Fireworks in March, etc.

Different from other concerts, there was no overwhelming noise and commotion in the whole performance, only the quiet listening of a full house of high friends.

Whether it is the "Chinese style" with ancient rhyme or the pop music that fits the times, it all reveals a sense of ritual with humanistic feelings and a sense of crossing time and space.

Towards the end, Chen Xiaoqi came on stage in a black trench coat and sang "The Sound of the Waves Still" with other singers. When he came to Beijing for a concert for the first time in his life, he was a little nervous and said with a smile, "It’s still comfortable to hide behind the scenes."

Chen Xiaoqi was filled with emotion after the performance.

"There were three major historical events 40 years ago. The first was that reform and opening up began in Guangdong; The second is to resume the college entrance examination, so that we have the opportunity to study in college; The third is the birth of China contemporary pop music in Guangdong. At this point in time, holding this concert in Beijing is not only a summary of yourself, but also a report to the audience. "

On the day of the interview, Chen Xiaoqi was dressed simply, wearing a white Chinese shirt and a pair of black-rimmed glasses, with her hair simply behind her head.

Writing is like a person, just like the "refined and fresh spirit temperament" in Chen Xiaoqi’s music works, and his manners and manners also have a quiet and wise literary popularity.

Music is my calling in life.

In 1954, Chen Xiaoqi was born in an art house in Puning, Guangdong. His mother was the director of a local cultural center and often took him to see art exhibitions. My father loves Chaozhou opera and national musical instruments, and his plays have won the Lu Xun Literature and Art Award. Influenced by his family, Chen Xiaoqi has a strong interest in literature and art since he was a child.

Speaking of the enlightenment of his classical poetry, Chen Xiaoqi was deeply impressed by one little thing. When he was a teenager, he found a collection of poems of the Tang Dynasty with no cover in the garbage (only a few years later did he know it was "Three Hundred Poems of the Tang Dynasty"), and he was fascinated by it.

At that time, these reading materials regarded as "poisonous weeds" were so sensitive that he could only hide them under his pillow and read them secretly. Later, my father found out and got a beating — — "My father is a literary lover. He once collected hundreds of novels and poems. When I lit a match with tears in my eyes, I believe his heart was also in tears." Chen Xiaoqi wrote in "30 Years of Oral College Entrance Examination".

This burnt-out collection of poems ignited Chen Xiaoqi’s fascination with classical poetry and his desire for literary creation.

But in those dark days, reading was a luxury, and Chen Xiaoqi turned to teaching himself music. Do it yourself if you can’t afford an instrument. "First, the flute and erhu, cut bamboo, burn red with sharpened iron bars and drill holes in bamboo to make flutes; Go to the mountain to hunt snakes, peel off the snake skin and dry it, and then stretch it on a bamboo tube to make erhu. The bowstring must be made of ponytail, cut and smashed with sisal, then soaked in water for a week, and the fiber is extracted to make bowstring. "

Until he went to high school and went to work in the auto parts factory, Chen Xiaoqi always insisted on writing poems, songs and organizing cultural and sports activities, and served as the captain of the amateur literary propaganda team and band leader, just like a passionate young man.

In 1977, the college entrance examination was resumed, and there was a major turning point in personal future and national destiny. "From the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination in the newspaper, everyone has the feeling of being rescued and rushing to tell each other."

In 1978, Chen Xiaoqi was admitted to the Chinese Department of Sun Yat-sen University. His literary talent was finally displayed. During his college years, he published a number of poems in publications such as Works, Haiyun, Star Poetry and Youth Poetry, and together with several poets, he founded the Bauhinia Poetry Society of CUHK, which lasted for many years. And music became a hobby of his. He joined the CUHK Folk Orchestra, playing cello and gaohu at first, and then playing dulcimer. But he is not interested in music, but dreams of becoming a real poet. 

Eyes

I face everything squarely

My eyes are the vast sky.

It’s the rising dawn

I face everything squarely

Includes a palm that blocks vision.

And clouds covered with shadows

I face everything squarely

And look yourself in the eye.

I face everything squarely

And look yourself in the eye.

After graduation, I originally planned to continue my "literary dream" in this way. I never thought that the position of the publishing house I had contacted was temporarily rejected. Chen Xiaoqi was very confused during that time.

It happened that the Guangzhou branch of Chinese record company was recruiting an editor, but he signed up in desperation and set foot on the road of music by mistake.

"The tragedy of life is comedy in the end."

Many years later, recalling the inspiration of music to himself, he wrote: "On a lonely and almost dead night, a bleak moonlight shone on the bed through the window lattice, and suddenly there was a flute in the distance, and I don’t know what it was, and I wanted to say goodbye with faint resentment." In an instant, I suddenly burst into tears. I don’t know what mysterious connection it has with my life. I only know that it is a call I want in my life. From that moment on, music became my favorite, and after many years, it finally became my lifelong career. "

After getting his first recorded song, Chen Xiaoqi listened to it with a tape recorder for dozens of times at home. "At that moment, I discovered that the music score turned into sound has such breathtaking power! This sense of accomplishment has never been seen before when poetry was published in publications. "

Participants and witnesses of pop music

Chen Xiaoqi’s road to music creation began in 1983, when China pop music began to sprout in Guangdong.

China in 1980s was an age eager to explode. The lack of culture for a long time before has made many cultural products hot-sellers, and the music field is a hot spot of turmoil.

As the forefront of reform and opening up, Guangdong has thus become the engine and bridgehead of China’s pop music. Hong Kong and Taiwan songs, English songs, Japanese songs, etc. flooded in and became all the rage.

"At that time, most record companies launched something called ‘ Song of saliva ’ His works were introduced from overseas and Hong Kong and Taiwan, and re-sung. "

In order to promote the rise of the original power of pop music, many institutions in Guangdong have launched pop music charts. "At that time, writing original songs was to hit the list, win the list, and then broadcast it on the radio program for the public to accept. It was best to win the prize in the end.

The fertile soil of Guangdong music industry nourishes Chen Xiaoqi’s generation of musicians.

However, at that time, most people had a little knowledge of the new term "pop music" and even had prejudice.

"Pop music was treated unfairly at that time, and many people thought it was a very vulgar thing, very low-level, very simple, and even a dirty art. So we set ourselves a goal to change this misunderstanding and discrimination against pop songs in society. "

Chen Xiaoqi consciously hopes to reverse the social, especially cultural and press views on pop music through high-grade works.

In 1984, with profound classical literature and unique music concept, Chen Xiaoqi created Dunhuang Dream. "Qin Shi Yue, Han Shi Guan, camel bell shook the ancient Dunhuang. Qilian snow, Yumen frost, where is the flying in the dream? " This dream of Dunhuang, full of classical literary feelings, shocked the music world and changed people’s prejudice against pop music at that time.

"This work was also broadcast on radio programs at that time, and many hotline calls came in. There are some old professors in their sixties and seventies. Strangely, each of them said the same thing, that is, your works have changed our view of pop music. I always thought pop music was a vulgar thing, but after listening to your songs, I felt very good, and it was more humanized and grounded than those before. "

Chen Xiaoqi was greatly encouraged, but also strengthened his creative direction and aesthetic interest in pop music.

In the mid-1980s, influenced by the ideological trend of root-seeking literature, Chen Xiaoqi decided to create a series of "Modern Native Land". Since Dunhuang Dream, he has successively created many lyric works with classical images and local flavor, such as Dream of Jiangnan and Baqiao Willow.

The appearance of these elegant pop music works has made the public and the government see the cultural potential of pop music and promoted the wide spread of pop music.

In the 1990s, the recording industry seems to have ushered in its heyday.

Chen Xiaoqi was originally located in Guangzhou, which is also known as the "Four Giants" of the recording industry with Pacific Ocean, New Era and White Swan. The star system of record companies and the appearance of national media entertainment pages greatly promoted the sales of records at that time. Singer’s posters, stickers and tapes are all over the mainland, and pop singers’ songs are echoed in the speakers in the streets.

"That was the time when Guangdong had the greatest influence in the country. The four major record companies all had their own singers, and they all pushed out at the same time. At that time, Guangdong’s media had the greatest influence, the advertising industry was the most developed, and the film and television industry was ahead. For Guangdong, it was indeed a golden age. "

Singers packaged by Chen Xiaoqi Music Creation Company include Li Chunbo, Gan Ping, Chen Ming, Zhang Mengmeng, Lin Ping, Yiyang, bald li jin, Liao Baiwei, Chen Shaohua, Eagle Group, Fire Wind, Rong Zhonger Jia and so on.

The 1990s was also the peak of Chen Xiaoqi’s creation. Well-known pop music hits such as The Sound of the Waves Still, How are you, Big Brother, I don’t want to talk about it, and Daughter Red in 1999 were all born in that era. The names of these singers and songs, in a sense, have also become the representative symbols of Chinese pop music, which have crossed the mark of the times.

Resist the clean stream of fast food culture

Since 2000, China has entered an era of online music.

Due to the lack of persistence and pursuit of the cultural taste and literary quality of music works, the erosion of fast food culture on music creation has become more and more obvious. Many people feel that pop music is becoming more and more unbearable nowadays.

Chen Xiaoqi is also quite worried. On the one hand, the emergence of the Internet has made music works present a more diversified state, but on the other hand, it has also infected the pop music scene with impetuous wind.

"The current music is adapted to the fast-paced life. Its advantage is to keep up with social hotspots. What happens in society, some people write this thing on the Internet and some people sing it. But it disappeared after a few months. Therefore, for song creation, this state is very bad because it can’t guarantee the artistry, classicality, cultural thickness and so on. These things are ignored, because everyone can’t stop, and there is no time to write slowly. If you don’t write slowly, no one will listen slowly, and the concert will lose a lot. "

Fortunately, this is not the case in the whole music industry. Chen Xiaoqi believes that there are still a group of people who are willing to write songs slowly and write them to people who are too heavy to listen. "It’s just that they don’t get a chance to spread and get them on the Internet, and they are immediately buried and submerged."

Among Chen Xiaoqi’s many works, the most famous one is The Sound of the Waves Still, which is also the longest-consuming one in his creative career. Recalling the creation of The Sound of the Waves Still, Chen Xiaoqi felt a lot.

One day in 1991, I accidentally reread the Tang poem "a night-mooring near maple bridge", and such a beautiful poem as "Jiang Feng fishing for fire and worrying about sleep" triggered Chen Xiaoqi’s creative inspiration. "The ancients always liked to leave blank when writing poems, which seemed implicit, but I always felt that these 28 short words had not finished what the author wanted to say, and the blank space in the poems also made people daydream." So, he decided to continue to write the story in the poem with music.

The sound of the waves remains the same

Take away a fishing fire, let him warm my eyes, leave a true feeling, and let it dock at the maple bridge. Helpless me, I have alienated that emotion, and I realized it many years later and came back to you; The lingering bell is still beating my sleepless and dusty days. It will never be a cloud. You must have kept that smiling face for a long time. After many years, can you accept each other’s changes? It’s always a thousand years’ wind and frost when the moon sets, and the sound of the waves still disappears at the original night. Today, you and I, how can we repeat yesterday’s story? Can this old boat ticket board your passenger ship?

"On the surface, this is a love story, but in fact, what I want to express in my heart is irrelevant love. At that time, I wanted to express the confusion of our generation at that time, that is, between traditional culture and modern culture, we were caught in the middle like a marginal person, unable to give up traditional things while trying to enter the modern society quickly, which was very confusing and at a loss. This confusion is wrapped in the shell of love. I hope to have a deep structure and a surface structure, so it will be more interesting to write. "

As an academic lyricist, Chen Xiaoqi "pays more attention to the poetic expression in the lyrics". "The Sound of the Waves Still" can be said to be a typical expression of his artistic pursuit.

Apart from writing lyrics, Chen Xiaoqi, who has a musical background, also began to try to compose independently.

It took more than two months to compose the lyrics and songs of The Sound of the Waves Still, and even Chen Xiaoqi couldn’t remember the number of revisions. "I think what I write must be worthy of my own aesthetic and artistic conscience."

In 1993, "The Sound of the Waves Still" appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Evening and became a landmark classic in pop music.

The completion of a song is a systematic project. Apart from the "elaborate" creation of lyrics and songs, the understanding and interpretation of each song is also checked by Chen Xiaoqi. "In fact, many singers were scolded by me when recording songs, and they cried. Many singers say that recording my songs is the hardest. Because even if one word is inaccurate, I will give it to them. "

The craftsman’s heart in music creation also makes Chen Xiaoqi’s works stand the scrutiny of the years. Today, his works can still be regarded as a clean stream of China pop music.

The persistence of the godfather of Lingnan music

Chen Xiaoqi is one of the leading figures of "Southern School" music, and he has always stuck to Guangdong for decades. "Since the 1990s, I have been called to Beijing every day, and I have never been there."

Chen Xiaoqi’s persistence comes from the Lingnan feelings in his bones: "Guangdong is my root, and the humanistic environment and natural environment here are particularly suitable for me, including Guangdong cuisine. It is also very important that the aesthetic taste of Lingnan has been deeply affecting me, and I hope to retain this unique artistic feeling in the South. "

For a long time, Chen Xiaoqi has formed an elegant, ethereal and profound cultural style of the Southern School by combining the artistic conception of classical poetry, modern poetry skills and the fashion sense of contemporary pop songs. This is inseparable from the nourishment of Lingnan culture.

The whole aesthetics of the south began in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, called Chu culture, and then came to Wuyue culture, Jiangnan culture after Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and now Lingnan culture in Guangdong, in fact, it is all in the same strain. The overall aesthetics pays more attention to beauty, implication and elegance, rather than being straightforward, atmospheric, sublime and magnificent in the north. "

Lingnan architecture

Another important aspect of Lingnan culture is inclusive marine civilization. "Guangzhou’s foreign exchanges have never stopped for more than a thousand years. Even if it was closed to the outside world in the Qing Dynasty, Guangzhou was still open. This makes Guangdong’s views and horizons much broader than those of the mainland. "

The influx of pop music from overseas, Hong Kong and Taiwan has a great influence on the creation of Guangdong musicians such as Chen Xiaoqi.

We draw more lessons from Taiwan Province for the creation of Mandarin songs. After all, the blood of pop music there has not been broken for decades, and they have been there. Moreover, Taiwan Province has always attached great importance to traditional culture. If you look at the poems written by some poets in Taiwan Province, including popular songs written by Taiwan Province, you can read a lot about some feelings in classical literature, and so on. Taiwan Province can keep many things that can’t be seen now. So from our point of view, we are more concerned about Taiwan Province’s works. "

In the field of music production, such as arrangement and recording, "you will learn more from Hong Kong, purely technical things."

Chen Xiaoqi hopes that his creation can always be rooted in Lingnan. "I can feel the atmosphere here. I can let myself be free from too many constraints and think about some artistic things freely."

Classics will be remembered forever.

Good songs will not be silenced by the passage of time, but the classic songs created by Chen Xiaoqi are still circulating in our times.

At the concert, Chen Xiaoqi said, this performance may be a full stop for me, exclamation point? Or a comma? Even an ellipsis? I don’t even know about it myself. I can only tell you that on the road of music, I am still moving forward … …
