The announcement of the central bank’s regulation of Internet loan business has been released. In the past two months, the loan APP still has the promotion of "daily interest rate"

  Announcement No.3 in 2021 issued by the central bank in March this year shows that all institutions engaged in loan business should show the annualized interest rate to borrowers in an obvious way when marketing through websites, mobile applications, posters and other channels, and indicate it when signing the loan contract, or display information such as daily interest rate and monthly interest rate at the same time as needed, but it should not be more obvious than the annualized interest rate. The annualized loan interest rate can be calculated by compound interest or simple interest method. If the simple interest calculation method is adopted, it should be explained that it is simple interest.

  Recently, the Beijing Youth Daily reporter found that many loan apps are still playing "cleverness" with consumers in displaying interest rates, and only show the daily interest rate or the lowest annualized interest rate with a small value. Only when consumers actually get the loan, do they find that the real interest rate is much higher than they thought.

  survey

  A few apps still violate the rules to promote customers at daily interest rates.

  The announcement of the central bank has been released for nearly two months. However, the reporter of Beiqing Daily found that there are still some loan apps that use the daily interest rate to promote customers, and they have not marked the annualized interest rate at the same time.

  For example, the application page of Vipshop’s "only cash withdrawal for flowers" only shows "the minimum daily interest fee of 13,60 seconds will arrive at the account quickly"; Mango TV’s "Mangli Good Loan" is known as "low interest, and the daily interest rate is as low as 0.02%"; On the "Financial Services" page of the "My Wallet" page, the car APP of Shouqi Car shows "the maximum is 300,000, and the minimum daily interest rate is 22,000". After clicking enter, you will see four loan products with annualized interest rate display.

  In addition, some loan products have neither annual interest rate nor daily interest rate, only the maximum loan amount. For example, the activation page of JD.COM Gold Bar only shows the maximum loan amount of 200,000 yuan, and the words "50,000 yuan is free for 15 days", "fast loan", "installment repayment" and "low interest rate", and there is no specific interest rate description, which can only be seen after opening; After other apps enter, only the maximum amount that can be applied is displayed, and you need to register to see the details; Xiaomi’s satellite loan shows that "the maximum loan amount is 300,000 yuan", "the fastest one-minute loan and flexible repayment", and you need to log in to learn more information.

  There are fewer loan products marked with simple interest.

  According to the requirements of the central bank, all loan products should clearly indicate the annualized interest rate of loans; The annualized loan interest rate can be calculated by compound interest or simple interest method; If the simple interest calculation method is adopted, it should be explained that it is simple interest. The calculation method of compound interest is the internal rate of return method, that is, the annualized internal rate of return (IRR) calculated after considering compound interest according to the borrower’s loan principal, repayment amount per period, loan period and other factors. The annex to the central bank’s announcement called it "a fair way to calculate the annualized interest rate of loans".

  After investigation, the reporter of Beiqing Daily found that at present, the loan products of most formal institutions have been marked with annualized interest rates according to the requirements of the central bank. Alipay borrowing, micro-loan, and US group living expenses also show the daily interest rate and annual interest rate, and some also list the conversion formulas of the two.

  However, only a few products have "simple interest" next to their interest rates. For example, the homepage of Anyihua shows that "the annualized interest rate is at least 7.2% (simple interest) and risk pricing is implemented"; Today’s headline shows that "the annual interest rate (simple interest) is 10.80%-24%"; The "Goose Spending Money" docked by Tencent Video APP indicates that "the annual interest rate is as low as 7.20% (simple interest), calculated on a daily basis".

  reveal a secret

  The result of compound interest calculation for the same loan is higher than simple interest.

  What effect will simple interest or compound interest have on the real interest rate of consumers? Two examples are provided in the announcement of the central bank, and the result of the same loan calculated by IRR method is higher than that of simple interest.

  For example, a consumer finance company borrows a loan with a term of one year and monthly repayment, with a total of 12 installments and a principal of 100,000 yuan. According to the repayment plan, the borrower pays the 1000 yuan service fee in one lump sum in the current loan period, and repays 8833.3 yuan in equal amount every month from the end of the first month after the loan, in which the principal is 100,000/12 = 8333.3 yuan, and the installment fee (calculated by 0.5% of the initial loan principal) is 100,000× 0.5% = 500 yuan. The comprehensive annualized interest rate of the above loans calculated by simple interest is about 12.80%, and the comprehensive annualized interest rate calculated by IRR method is about 13.58%.

  A person’s housing loan, with a term of 20 years and monthly repayment, has a total of 240 installments, with a principal of 1 million yuan, and is repaid by matching principal and interest. According to the repayment plan, from the end of the first month after the loan, the borrower will repay the principal and interest of 6599.6 yuan in equal amount every month. The annualized interest rate of the above loans calculated by simple interest is about 5%; The annualized interest rate calculated by IRR method is about 5.12%.

  Liu Xinyu, a partner of Zhonglun Law Firm, believes that the central bank’s announcement clarified the calculation scope and method of comprehensive capital cost, solved the scope dispute of comprehensive capital cost in legal practice, and provided legal reference for the judicial department to handle loan dispute cases. At the same time, the formal introduction of IRR into the regulatory provisions will help protect consumers’ right to know and prevent consumers from being misled into applying for loans without knowing the true cost.

  Don’t be tempted by the lowest interest rate. The actual approved interest rate is often much higher.

  The reporter of Beiqing Daily found that many loan products are marked with "annualized interest rate from 7.2%". If you think that the interest rate you get is 7.2%, you will be greatly disappointed. Because lending institutions will evaluate customers’ credit and risk levels according to various factors, customers need to apply first, and only after the approval of the institutions can they know their final access quota and applicable interest rate. The actual loan interest rate approved by consumers will not be the same, and only the best customers can enjoy the lowest interest rate.

  According to the investigation of the reporter of Beiqing Daily, the loan interest rates enjoyed by different customers on the same platform are very different, and the interest rates obtained by the same person on different platforms may be different. Few customers really enjoy the lowest interest rate, but many customers complain that the interest rate is too high.

  For example, the same is Alipay. The daily interest rate of reader Miss Wang is 0.025% and the annual interest rate is 9.125%, while her friend Mr. Zhang is 0.04% and the annual interest rate is 14.6%. The annual interest rate of Miss Wang’s micro-loan is 10.95%, which is higher than that of Borrowing Bai, while Mr. Zhang’s micro-loan interest rate is 12.775%, which is lower than Borrowing Bai.

  In another application, it is clearly marked that "the daily interest rate starts from 0.02% and the annualized interest rate starts from 7.20%". Miss Huang, who is heading for 7.20%, finally got the interest rate of 0.065% per day and 23.4% per year, which is more than three times that of 7.2%. Her friend Mr. Li was granted a daily interest rate of 0.097% and an annualized interest rate of 34.92%, which is 4.85 times that of 7.2%. They all want to know how many customers have actually obtained loans with an annual interest rate of 7.20%.

  On the black cat complaint platform, there are more than 40,000 complaints about "annual interest rate", most of which are "the annual interest rate is found to be too high after borrowing". Some complainants reported that the annual interest rate of some lending platforms even exceeded 36%.

  point out

  Be wary of network platform inducing excessive borrowing.

  At the end of last year, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission issued "Warning on Risk of Excessive Lending Induced by Online Platforms". China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission pointed out that in order to obtain a large number of customers, some online platforms over-market financial products such as loans or credit card overdrafts through various online consumption scenarios to induce over-consumption. China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission Consumer Protection Bureau reminds consumers that they should establish a rational consumption concept, use lending products rationally, choose formal institutions and channels to obtain financial services, and be alert to the hidden risks or traps behind excessive lending marketing.

  According to the risk warning, some organizations or online platforms unilaterally emphasize the favorable conditions such as low daily interest rate, interest-free period and zero interest installment. However, the so-called "zero interest" does not mean zero cost, and there are often "service fees", "handling fees" and "overdue charges", and the actual comprehensive annualized interest rate of such products may be very high. Some marketing activities intentionally blur the actual cost of borrowing, which infringes on consumers’ right to know and easily leads to misunderstanding or recognition.

  There are also some online platforms that claim that the loan procedures are simple, tempting consumers to click on it, and some institutions even lend excessively to minors, school students, low-income people, etc., and then carry out violent collection, pretend to be malicious collection by judicial organs, and collect for borrowers’ relatives and friends, causing a series of family and social problems.

Tesla China fancy pet customer Model Y which one is the most worth buying?

The level of configuration determines the competitiveness of a car to a certain extent, as we said in this article. Let’s take you to appreciate its style.

Let’s take a look at the appearance of Model Y. The whole front of Model Y looks very cold and unique. Coupled with cold headlights, the visual impact is full. The car is equipped with LED daytime running lights, front fog lights, automatic opening and closing, adaptive far and near light, delayed closing and so on. Come to the side of the car, the car body size is 4750MM*1921MM*1624MM, the car uses delicate lines, the car side gives people a very sporty feeling, with large-sized thick-walled tires, giving people a very simple feeling. In the rear part, the rear looks very fashionable and dynamic, and the taillights look very rustic, creating a good atmosphere.

Sitting in the car, the interior of Model Y adopts a steady shape, and the overall recognition is high. The steering wheel of the car is very tough, equipped with electric up and down+front and rear adjustment, steering wheel memory, steering wheel heating and other functions, practicality and face value are not bad. From the central control point of view, with the 15-inch touch-sensitive LCD central control screen, the interior style is impressive and gives people a feeling full of young personality. Next, let Xiaobian introduce the dashboard and seats. The dashboard of this car presents a cool design style and the display effect is excellent. The car adopts imitation leather seats, which are wrapped in place and have good support and comfort.

The Model Y is 357KW, the total torque is 659N.m, and the maximum speed is 250 km/h.

The car is equipped with driving mode selection, Bluetooth key, NFC/RFID key, interior ambience light, traction control (ASR/TCS, etc.), Bluetooth /WIFI connection and other configurations, and the configuration performance is quite good, bringing drivers and passengers a comfortable car experience.

To sum up: this class of cars is usually the first choice for most people. First of all, the price is not expensive, and secondly, all the configurations are quite complete, which is still very worth starting with.

Talking with data: Is the super-sensitive leather car seat cushion really sunburned?

  [Pacific Auto Network Supplies Channel]It is not difficult to imagine this scene: at noon in summer, when you get into the car, you will be burned by the insolated seat. Earlier, when Xiao Bian visited the forum, he found that some netizens had installed a car seat cushion called "Super Skin". It is said that this kind of seat cushion is "neither hot nor cold". Is it really so magical? Xiaobian will personally test it.

 

What is extrasensory skin?

  Supersensitive skinIt is a composite material. It is breathable, non-slip, comfortable, durable and easy to clean. Super-sensitive leather is suitable for any model, and it is also a car seat cushion that is universal in all seasons and neither hot nor cold.

 

● Preparation before test

  In order to measure the temperature rise performance of the car seat cushion made of this material at high temperature, we found two kinds of seat cushion materials: one is Five Blessingg Jinniu’s super-sensitive leather 3D seat cushion, and the other is ordinary leather.

Talking with data: Does the super-sensitive leather car seat cushion really burn?

  We will speak with data in the test, so the test instruments we use this time include: 300W infrared lamp and hand-held infrared thermometer. The infrared lamp is formed by inserting a tungsten wire into an inflatable quartz tube. The tungsten wire generates heat and heats the gas in the quartz tube under the action of alternating voltage, thus generating infrared electromagnetic waves, which can be used for heating. The infrared thermometer can determine the surface temperature by measuring the infrared energy radiated by the target surface.

Talking with data: Does the super-sensitive leather car seat cushion really burn?

  Then, we need to pay attention to a question here: Is the infrared lamp we used in the test equal to the sun’s rays? The wavelength of infrared lamp is different from that of infrared rays in sunlight, and the content of infrared lamp, Yuba lamp or other light sources is completely different from that of rays harmful to human body in sunlight. Using infrared lamp to do the test is only to simulate a heat source and let us feel the temperature rise of two different materials under the condition of the same heat source.

Talking with data: Does the super-sensitive leather car seat cushion really burn?

● heating speed: super sensitive leather < leather.

  In order to make each data reading comparable, we mark the surfaces of the two materials separately before testing, and each time when reading with infrared thermometer, the testing point will be aligned with the marked position.

Talking with data: Does the super-sensitive leather car seat cushion really burn?

  After turning on the infrared light for about 20 seconds, we first felt the temperature rise of the cushion materials on both sides with our hands, and the leather obviously felt more soup, but the temperature rise of the super-sensitive leather was not so obvious.

Talking with data: Does the super-sensitive leather car seat cushion really burn?

  Next, we will continuously use the thermometer to read the temperature rise value. Surprisingly, under the irradiation of infrared light, the highest temperature can reach more than 90 degrees, which is a bit unexpected.

Talking with data: Does the super-sensitive leather car seat cushion really burn?

  However, it should be noted that this data test is not in line with our daily car habits, because the temperature of the seats in the car is difficult to reach more than 90 degrees under the exposure at noon, so we only show that the temperature rise of super-sensitive leather is better than that of ordinary leather by infrared light irradiation. So in order to make the experiment more ideal, we moved two experimental products outdoors to see their temperature rise under the condition of midday exposure.

Talking with data: Does the super-sensitive leather car seat cushion really burn?

  Description of test conditions: In the hot weather of 38, we test the temperature rise within one hour from 12 noon to 1 o’clock. At this time, the ground temperature is 42 degrees.

Talking with data: Does the super-sensitive leather car seat cushion really burn?

  Summary:Regardless of outdoor exposure or infrared lamp test, except for the highest temperature, the test results all illustrate the same problem: after the temperature rises to a certain extent, the temperature value will not fluctuate too much. Basically, the temperature of super-sensitive leather is up to 49 when it is exposed to the sun outdoors, while the temperature of ordinary leather is up to 66, which is close to the real temperature. If it is placed in the car environment, the temperature may not be so high.

● Is this kind of cushion environmentally friendly?

  It seems that the report that black heart cotton is hidden in the seat cushion has always been very common. Generally speaking, there are still many cases in China where materials are not sent for inspection.  

  Therefore, the easiest way to see if black cotton has been used in the seat cushion is to prove it by testing standards.

Talking with data: Does the super-sensitive leather car seat cushion really burn?

  What is SGS report?SGS states the results or conclusions after inspection, testing, certification and appraisal in the report, but the inspection and certification are not based on SGS standards, but on international standards, local laws and regulations, customer requirements or special industry requirements. SGS is only a fair and rigorous third party, with rich experience, professional equipment and personnel to carry out various inspections or tests according to standards.

 

Relevant certification:

  CCC certification:The full name of 3C certification is "Compulsory Product Certification System", which is a product conformity assessment system implemented by China government in accordance with laws and regulations to protect consumers’ personal safety and national security, strengthen product quality management.

  CE certification:That is, it is limited to the basic safety requirements of products that do not endanger the safety of human beings, animals and goods, rather than the general quality requirements. The coordination instruction only stipulates the main requirements, and the general instruction requirements are standard tasks. Therefore, the accurate meaning is that the CE mark is a safety qualified mark rather than a quality qualified mark.

 

  Summary:At present, there is no mandatory standard in the automobile seat cushion industry, and it is entirely necessary for manufacturers to exercise self-discipline. However, in terms of testing standards, it is also divided into national standards and European standards. Generally speaking, the index of European standard is stricter, and SGS belongs to European standard.

● What is the loading effect?

  After testing the car seat cushion made of this material, we also experienced its installation effect. Take Jinniu, Five Blessingg as an example. This set of seat cushion adopts concave-convex design, and many places are designed with breathable holes, so it is more breathable.

● Summary

  Different car cushions will give people different feelings, whether it is genuine leather or imitation leather, or fabric seats and super-leather seat covers, all of which have their own advantages and disadvantages. As far as extrasensory skin is concerned, its advantages are good thermal conductivity and softness and comfort. However, although the car seat cushion is made of the same material, there will be some differences, such as whether environmental protection materials are used, whether high-quality fillers (such as high-elastic sponges) are used, and how the stitch technology and ventilation design are, etc. These are the criteria for considering the quality of a set of seat cushions. However, the performance of this Five Blessingg Jinniu car seat cushion tested this time is still very satisfactory.

Notes of Rio Journalists: The Godfather of Women’s Water Polo and the Embarrassment of Unpopular Events

  On the evening of August 15th, the quarter-finals of women’s water polo in Rio Olympic Games started. The China women’s team (Blue Hat) lost to the Italian team at 7: 12 in three group matches, which failed to create a miracle and missed the semi-finals of the Olympic Games.

  Beijing, Rio de Janeiro, August 15 (Reporter Wang Muqing) If it weren’t for the Olympic Games, the unpopular event of women’s water polo might not get much attention. Even at the peak of China team: third place in the 2010 World Cup, second place in the 2011 World Championships, and champion in the 2013 World League.

  Today, only four athletes, Yang Jun, Sun Yating, Ma Huanhuan and Song Donglun, have come to Rio, and three of them have participated in the two Olympic Games in Beijing and London. This young team went to Rio, suffered four consecutive defeats and missed the top four.

  In fact, women’s water polo in China has never reached the top four in the Olympic Games. In 2008 and 2012, China finished fifth. According to the competition system of Rio Olympic Games, even though China has lost all three matches in the group stage, it can still participate in the knockout stage and compete for a place in the semi-finals. Fortunately, the opponent is the Italian team that was defeated two months ago.

  Olympic water polo entered the knockout stage, and the venue was moved to the gymnasium in the central area of Rio Olin, which just finished the swimming competition. Writing here, the reporter is really ashamed, because the reporter doesn’t know where the venue for the group competition is. After inquiring through the official information center of the Olympic Games, the reporter learned that the name of the venue is Maria Lenk Aquatics, but if you click to view the specific information, the page will display: This information cannot be checked.

  The reporter is more convinced that this information can be found during the group stage, but by the time the knockout stage begins, the venue has completed the historical mission of the Rio Olympic Games, and few people care about it.

  On the other hand, the China team didn’t start badly. At one time, it was tied with its opponent’s 1-1 score. But as time went on, the Italian team scored again and again, and the difference was opened a little.

  With the suspense of the game getting smaller and smaller, the reporters in the media gallery are somewhat depressed. The reporter looked around the stadium and found that the stands with nearly half the attendance rate were full of Brazilian flags. It turns out that China’s foreign teacher and American Azevedo’s hometown is Brazil.

  On the evening of August 15th, the quarter-finals of women’s water polo in Rio Olympic Games started. The China women’s team (Blue Hat) lost to the Italian team at 7: 12 in three group matches, which failed to create a miracle and missed the semi-finals of the Olympic Games.

  Rick Azevedo’s name is like Alex Ferguson in football and Phil Jackson in basketball. People respectfully call Azevedo "the godfather of water polo". At the Rio Olympic Games, Azevedo led the China team home dressed in gold and challenged the Italian team he had coached. At the same time, Tony Azevedo, a 35-year-old veteran of the American men’s water polo team, is the son of Rick Azevedo, and he will complete his fifth Olympic tour in Rio.

  Rio Olympic Games is so important to old Azevedo. So it’s not hard to understand how upset old Azevedo was after the game when China lost to the Italian team because of shooting disorder. However, in the name of "godfather", Azevedo reminded young girls in China that experience is more important than process, exertion is more important than result, and relaxation is more important than stress.

  However, for Ma Huanhuan and Sun Yating, the Rio Olympic Games is a swan song of "the result is more important than the process". After the National Games next year, two meritorious veterans will officially retire. Even if the group lost three games in a row, as long as we can win one game in the knockout stage and reach the semi-finals, it will be the long-cherished wish of a generation of national players.

  As the captain, Sun Yating couldn’t help crying after the game: "I really want to win a medal." When she said this, she raised her hand and wiped her tears, revealing a bright red scratch on her neck.

  In the women’s water polo competition, the players’ confrontation in the absence of the ball is quite fierce, and the collision between the opponents’ limbs is not all a foul. Therefore, that clear scratch is by no means accidental, but it is the necessity of this sport.

  Apart from regret, Sun Yating is most worried about the future of women’s water polo in China: "There are too few people practicing water polo, and the selection of talents is too limited."

  However, when the Rio Olympic Games is closed, the exposure opportunities of women’s handball events may only be comprehensive games such as the National Games and the Asian Games. As for the World Championships and the World Cup, the degree of attention received can be imagined. I’m afraid the future of this team will only be known to outsiders through the results of the competition. The so-called unpopular projects are generally the same. (End)

Multi-field data are bright, and the high-quality development of China’s economy has steadily advanced.

On the other hand, the habit of promoting more capable companies to pay dividends in the medium term and paying dividends multiple times a year is gradually being cultivated, and leading companies in the industry have played a very good role in this process.

Management of state-owned assets in administrative institutions

  State-owned assets of administrative institutions refer to all kinds of economic resources that are occupied and used by administrative institutions, legally recognized as owned by the state and can be measured in money. It is an important material basis for the government to perform social management functions, provide public services and promote career development, and is an important part of state-owned assets.

  (1) the status quo of state-owned assets in administrative institutions. According to the data of final accounts of departments in 2011, as of December 31, 2011, the total assets of administrative institutions nationwide were 13.35 trillion yuan, and the total net assets after deducting liabilities were 8.76 trillion yuan. The net assets of administrative institutions accounted for about one-third of the total state-owned net assets (see Figure 5.1). In terms of asset composition, current assets account for 40.3%, fixed assets account for 50.2%, foreign investment accounts for 1.8%, intangible assets account for 0.5%, and other assets account for 7.2% (see Figure 5.2).

  Figure 5.1 State-owned Assets of Administrative Institutions in 2006-2011 (Net Value)

  Figure 5.2 Composition of state-owned assets (total value) of administrative institutions at the end of 2011

  (2) State-owned assets management system of administrative institutions. In 2006, the Ministry of Finance promulgated the Interim Measures for the Management of State-owned Assets in Administrative Units and the Interim Measures for the Management of State-owned Assets in Public Institutions (Ministry of Finance Orders No.35 and No.36, hereinafter referred to as "two ministerial orders"), which clarified the management system of state-owned assets in administrative institutions and the management responsibilities of various departments (units), comprehensively standardized the management of assets allocation, use and disposal, and constructed a comprehensive management system from asset allocation, use to disposal. According to the relevant principles determined by the two ministerial decrees, the Ministry of Finance, in conjunction with relevant departments, has studied and promulgated relevant supporting management measures such as asset inventory, asset verification, state-owned assets management of central administrative institutions, overseas assets management and the use, disposal and income of state-owned assets. At the same time, local financial departments have actively strengthened the system construction according to the provisions of the two ministerial orders, and the state-owned assets management system of administrative institutions has been initially established.

  (3) State-owned assets management institutions of administrative institutions and their responsibilities. According to the current management framework of state-owned assets in administrative institutions, it is vertically divided into five levels: central, provincial, prefecture (city), county and township, and horizontally there are three levels of management: "financial department-competent department-administrative institutions".

  The specific responsibilities and authorities of financial departments, competent departments of administrative institutions (hereinafter referred to as competent departments) and administrative institutions in asset management are as follows: financial departments at all levels are government functional departments responsible for the management of state-owned assets of administrative institutions and implement comprehensive management of state-owned assets of administrative institutions; The competent department is responsible for the supervision and management of the state-owned assets of the administrative institutions affiliated to this department; Administrative institutions shall implement specific management of the state-owned assets possessed and used by their own units.

  The promulgation of the two ministerial orders clearly defined the management system of state-owned assets in administrative institutions in China. At present, the management system of "unified ownership by the state, graded supervision by the government, possession and use by units" and the corresponding state-owned assets management model of "financial department-competent department-administrative institution" have been further established nationwide. By the end of 2011, all provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities directly under the Central Government and cities with separate plans) in China have made it clear that the financial departments are responsible for the management of state-owned assets in administrative institutions, and 35 of them have established special asset management institutions. Most central departments have also set up asset management institutions or defined the staff responsible for asset management.

  (4) The main contents of state-owned assets management in administrative institutions. It mainly includes asset allocation, asset use, asset disposal and other related work.

  Asset allocation. It refers to the behavior of financial departments, competent departments, administrative institutions, etc. to equip administrative institutions with assets by means of purchase or adjustment according to the needs of administrative institutions to perform their functions and in accordance with the procedures stipulated by relevant state laws, regulations and rules. Administrative institutions purchase assets included in the scope of government procurement and implement government procurement according to law. In order to standardize and strengthen the asset budget management, the Ministry of Finance issued the Notice of the Ministry of Finance on Further Strengthening the Budget Management of New Asset Allocation in Central Administrative Units (Caixing [2010] No.293) and the Budget Standard for the Purchase of General Office Equipment and Furniture in Central Administrative Units (for Trial Implementation) (Caixing [2011] No.78) to standardize the asset budget preparation of central departments and improve the budget for the purchase of general office equipment and furniture in central administrative units.

  Use of assets. Including assets for self-use, foreign investment, leasing and lending. Administrative institutions shall establish and improve the management system for the use of state-owned assets, standardize the use behavior, do a good job in the use management, give full play to the use efficiency of state-owned assets, ensure the safety and integrity of state-owned assets, and prevent improper losses and waste in the use of state-owned assets. Administrative units shall not use state-owned assets as external guarantee, and shall not use state-owned assets in any form to hold economic entities. The income from leasing and lending of state-owned assets in administrative institutions shall be managed by "two lines of revenue and expenditure" in accordance with the provisions of the government on the management of non-tax income. The income from the use of state-owned assets in public institutions should be included in the unit budget, and unified accounting and management should be carried out.

  Disposal of assets. Refers to the transfer and write-off of property rights of state-owned assets in administrative institutions. Including all kinds of state-owned assets free allocation (transfer), foreign donation, sale, transfer, transfer, replacement, loss reporting and scrapping, loss verification of monetary assets, etc. The income from the disposal of state-owned assets in administrative institutions shall be managed by "two lines of revenue and expenditure" in accordance with the provisions of the government on the management of non-tax income.

  Other basic work. It mainly includes supporting basic work such as asset inventory, asset verification, property right registration and asset evaluation of administrative institutions, and constitutes the content system of asset management of administrative institutions with three basic links of asset allocation, use and disposal.

  Approval process. Administrative institutions at all levels shall, in strict accordance with the relevant provisions of the state, go through the formalities for examination and approval of asset allocation, use and disposal, and follow the process shown in Figure 5.3 for approval.

  Figure 5.3 Schematic diagram of approval process

  (5) Special management of state-owned assets in administrative institutions.One isOfficial vehicle management. The Ministry of Finance issued the Administrative Measures for the Budget and Final Accounts of Official Vehicles for Party and Government Organs (No.9 [2011] of Caixing) and the Administrative Measures for the Equipment and Use of Official Vehicles for Law Enforcement of Party and Government Organs (No.180 [2011] of Caixing), and formulated the Administrative Measures for the Equipment and Use of Official Vehicles for Law Enforcement of Sub-systems together with the central competent authorities, further put forward management requirements for the budget and final accounts of official vehicles for Party and government organs, and set the equipment scope, preparation management and equipment standards for official vehicles for law enforcement of party and government organs.The second isSoftware asset management. In order to further improve the use of legitimate software by government agencies, the Ministry of Finance issued the Notice on Further Standardizing and Strengthening the Management of Software Assets of Government Agencies (Caixing [2011] No.7), which put forward clear requirements on budget management, asset management and procurement management of legitimate software, standardized and strengthened the management of software assets of government agencies, and promoted the protection of intellectual property rights.

Illegal businessmen promote satellite TV, claiming that they can watch adult TV in Europe and America.

    A pot cover with a diameter of about 40 cm, a VCD-like device and a small compass claim to be able to install satellite TV, and can receive more than 100 channels including news and entertainment programs from Europe, America, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and 24-hour adult stations, with a value of 3,600 yuan. Recently, illegal businessmen have been promoting the "benefits" of installing satellite TV to people through SMS and other channels.


    On September 1st, a reporter from Times and a reporter from Guangdong TV Station "Today’s Concern" made a joint unannounced visit and contacted the seller at zero distance. It was found that this was simply a scam set by criminals. The working principle of those so-called instruments that could receive European and American TV stations was suspected to be the operation mode of VCD or digital TV stored and then played. The industry and commerce, radio and television departments have indicated that they will seriously investigate and deal with it.


    Report: Someone sent a text message to promote adult TV.


    On August 31, Mr. Zhao, a military hospital of the People’s Liberation Army stationed in Guangzhou, received a short message with these words: install satellite TV, watch news, movies, sports and entertainment from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, the Premier League of Hong Kong and Taiwan and the 24-hour adult channel with Chinese subtitles, and pay when you are satisfied; The telephone number is 13662333XXX, Mr. Cheng. Mr. Zhao said that after receiving the text message, he immediately called the other party, and the other party enthusiastically promoted the benefits of installing satellite TV to him, focusing on ensuring that he could watch programs from European and American TV stations and adult TV to ensure customer satisfaction.


    According to Zhao, in addition to this message, his friends also received the same message, all from this vendor. In order to explore whether there is any tricky and illegal behavior. On the morning of September 1, Mr. Zhao made an appointment with a reporter and decided to find out.


    Unannounced visit: the other party said that it can receive more than 100 overseas stations.


    After a series of arrangements, the reporter called according to the contact mobile phone on the short message. A man who claimed to be surnamed Cheng answered the phone. After confirming that the reporter needed to install satellite TV, Mr. Cheng said that he would send someone to install it for the reporter. In order to witness the installation and reception process of "satellite TV" safely and smoothly, the Times reporter first opened an hourly room in a hotel on Xingang Road, and then made a joint unannounced visit with the reporter of "Today’s Concern" of Guangdong TV Station to obtain the evidence.


    At 4 o’clock on the afternoon of September 1, after two hours of waiting and non-stop telephone contact, a white Buick car came to the hotel booked by the reporter in advance. There was no license plate hanging in front of the car. The reporter walked into the front of the car and saw that although there was a license plate, the license plate was ambiguous. There were five men on the bus, three of whom got off the bus. One man brought a black package from the back compartment, and the other man took something like a pot cover, which was small and about 40 cm in diameter. Subsequently, under the leadership of the reporter, the three men came to the hourly room booked by the reporter.


    See adult programs immediately after installation.


    The reporter needs to install satellite TV to receive European and American TV stations and adult stations on the grounds of operating hotels to meet customers’ needs, but he requires to see the product display and installation procedures first. "Our receiving instrument is very advanced. It is different from the original big pot cover. It can receive more than 100 channels from overseas TV stations. It can not only watch news, movies, sports and entertainment programs from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, Europe, America and Taiwan, but also the most important adult programs with very exciting pictures. It is very good-looking, and you are satisfied!"


    The man wearing a light red T-shirt is a little fat. While introducing the benefits of the "satellite TV receiver" to reporters, he took out tools such as wires and scissors from the black bag. The most surprising thing is that a thin man took out his compass, scanned the room and asked, "Which direction is the southeast? The lid needs to be placed on the southeast window to receive the signal! "


    The "white plaid T-shirt" man instructed the "light red T-shirt" man to put the lid on the window, took out a box of VCD-like equipment and put it on the TV. Then, the three men began to tune the TV. Soon, the TV screen that used to broadcast domestic TV pictures was immediately replaced by an unsightly sex scene for men and women. "Satisfied! With this satellite TV receiver installed, you can receive 100 overseas stations. "


    Doubt: How can live broadcast be paused, fast-forward and fast-backward?


    "The programs and pictures played through our satellite receiver can be paused or fast-forward and fast-backward!" The "white plaid T-shirt" man looks a little proud. "You can also fast forward and fast backward?" The reporter expressed surprise, "What’s the difference between this and VCD?" "This is the biggest advantage of our receiver, but it is not a VCD."


    At the request of the reporter, the "white plaid T-shirt" demonstrated the advantages of this satellite receiver to the reporter. He first instructed the "light red T-shirt" man to put the lid on the window again, and then instructed another man who came with him to set the compass. The "white plaid T-shirt" man then inserted two wires with plugs into the box placed on the TV. After turning on the switch, the TV screen showed the programs of AEC TV stations abroad. After playing for two or three minutes, the "white plaid T-shirt" man suddenly pressed the button with the remote control, and the picture being played was really paused, and then he pressed it again.


    "Amazing!" After nearly an hour of installation and demonstration, two other big men who were originally sitting in Buick came into the room and said loudly. "Besides watching this TV channel, you can also watch Taiwan Province’s Dongsen TV program and American and Australian programs." The "white plaid T-shirt" man said and demonstrated.


        Dialogue is expensive, claiming to be sold nationwide.


    When several men demonstrated and promoted products, the reporter started a dialogue with them and learned that they were mainly engaged in product distribution and installation. Mr. Cheng on the short message is a contact person, not a real boss. "White Plaid T-shirt" man said that he is from Jiangsu, his boss is in Shanghai, and there are more than 30 people engaged in product sales in Guangzhou. There are also product sales outlets in other cities in China, with prices ranging from several hundred yuan to several thousand yuan, and from 20,000 yuan to 30,000 yuan, depending on what kind of products you need.


    Reporter: How much does it cost to sell this product you brought today?


    T-shirt male (white plaid T-shirt male): 3600 yuan. This is a medium-sized product. You can buy 20,000 to 30,000 yuan if you need it.


    Reporter: Is there anything cheap?


    T-shirt man: We have 600 yuan’s, which is the lowest.


    Reporter: Are the products reliable?


    T-shirt man: Of course. The boss is from Shanghai, and the products are sold all over the country. The business is very good. I installed this equipment for a factory in Baiyun District the day before yesterday, worth 50,000 to 60,000 yuan. This factory bought several sets.


    Reporter: Is there any guarantee for buying your product?


    "T-shirt" male; Don’t worry! Warranty for three years, with invoice and receipt.


    Reporter: Can you look at the approval and legal procedures of the radio and television department?


    T-shirt man (silent): ….


    Light red T-shirt "M: We can guarantee that the police and other departments can’t find it. This pot cover is so small that it is difficult to find it.


    Reporter: if it is checked, isn’t it bought for nothing?


    Light red T-shirt "Man: No, we’ll get along well and make sure you’re not investigated. Besides, this pot cover is so small that it is difficult to check it, and it is difficult to find it in the room.


    statement


    Radio and Television Bureau: Suspected to be a copy of VCD and digital TV storage.


    Yesterday afternoon, after listening to the reporter’s story, the staff of Guangzhou Press, Publication, Radio and Television Bureau said that no unit or individual is allowed to sell and install satellite TV without the approval of the Radio and Television Bureau. Therefore, the equipment illegally sold by this seller is illegal and even suspected of committing a crime. The staff also said that no matter whether it is domestic TV or overseas TV, there will be no pause or fast-forward or fast-backward phenomenon in live broadcast programs, so it is suspected that it is a replica of VCD and digital TV storage.


    Finally, the staff member said that since the main responsibility of the Radio and Television Bureau is to investigate and deal with the dens that produce this instrument, the work of investigating and selling this instrument is handled by the industrial and commercial departments. The staff suggested that the reporter dial "12315".


    Industry and commerce department: determine the evidence and investigate it strictly.

Guangdong welcomes Spring Festival travel rush’s return peak again. Guangzhou has prepared 38 extra lines and more than 600 overtime buses. The portal website of Guangdong Provincial People’s Governme

  According to Guangdong traffic police, Guangdong will usher in the peak period of students returning to school and migrant workers reworking. Guangdong traffic police expect that there will be a return trip peak on February 13th and 14th after the Lantern Festival, that is, 16th and 17th. Many places in Guangdong will hold a series of celebration activities, such as fireworks show, lantern festival and temple fair. In order to ensure the safety and order of road traffic in the jurisdiction during the activities, local public security traffic control departments will implement temporary traffic control on the roads around some activity areas.

  In view of the post-holiday characteristics that the bus terminal mainly undertakes the passenger flow of major transportation hubs, the municipal transportation department focuses on strengthening the supervision and management of supporting passenger stations of major transportation hubs such as the provincial bus terminal, Guangzhou South Bus Terminal, Baiyun Bus Terminal, Baiyun Airport Bus Terminal and East Station Bus Terminal, urging the stations to have sufficient capacity, optimizing the waiting space in the stations, paying close attention to the arrival dynamics of flights and trains at airports and railway stations, and sending additional staff to do a good job in ticket purchase, ticket checking and bus guidance. According to statistics, after the holiday, 38 extra lines and more than 600 overtime buses were prepared at each passenger station to fully ensure the smooth transportation of passengers.

  The municipal transportation department focuses on the supervision and inspection of the key links such as the verification of the operating qualifications of the inbound bus and drivers, the safety inspection of the inbound vehicles, the inspection of passengers’ "three products" and the ticketing and inspection work in real-name registration system, and the outbound inspection, so as to prevent illegal modification and overloading of vehicles and strictly observe the bottom line of safety production. As of February 11th, after the holiday, passenger stations carried out about 5,800 vehicle inspections, more than 170,000 "three products" inspections, and intercepted more than 80 prohibited and restricted articles, which effectively guaranteed the safety of Spring Festival travel rush.

China’s foreign trade goes against the trend-looking at the economy through the "troika"

one

  On August 14th, the data released by the National Bureau of Statistics showed that the national economy continued to operate in a reasonable range in July, maintaining a generally stable, steady and progressive development trend. Among them, the strong performance of foreign trade has become a bright spot: in July, the total volume of imports, exports and exports was the highest in a single month since this year, and the growth rate of both was also faster than that of last month.

  The the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee Conference held recently demanded that the economic and trade frictions should be effectively dealt with and the "six stability" work should be done comprehensively.

  Since the beginning of this year, in the face of complicated and severe domestic and international situations, China has made great efforts to do a good job of "six stabilities" including stabilizing foreign trade and foreign investment, so as to promote the stability and quality improvement of foreign trade. In the long run, the trend of China’s foreign trade structure optimization and power conversion acceleration will not change, and its strong resilience will be further manifested.

  On the toughness of foreign trade in "one liter and one drop"

  Against the background of increasing global economic and trade risks and uncertainties, the total import and export volume of China in July was 2,738.2 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 5.7%; From January to July, the total import and export volume was 17,408.3 billion yuan, up by 4.2%. What do you think of this achievement?

  Vertically, this is an excellent performance. In July, the import and export value hit a new high in a single month this year, and the growth rate was 2.6 percentage points higher than that of the previous month, which was the highest in the past three months.

  Horizontally, this is a hard-won achievement. At present, protectionism and unilateralism are escalating and global trade is weak. In the update of the World Economic Outlook Report released a few days ago, the International Monetary Fund drastically lowered its forecast for the growth rate of global trade volume this year by 0.9 percentage points to 2.5%, far lower than last year’s 3.7%, the lowest point in three years. "In this context, China’s foreign trade has maintained steady growth, showing its strong resilience." Zhang Jianping, deputy director of the Academic Committee of the Research Institute of the Ministry of Commerce and director of the Regional Economic Research Center, told the reporter of People’s Daily Overseas Edition.

  Outside the whole, look at exports and imports respectively. From January to July, exports reached 9,475.8 billion yuan, an increase of 6.7%. Among them, the export in July was 1,524.2 billion yuan, the highest level in a single month since this year; It increased by 10.3%, 4.3 percentage points faster than last month, and reached a new high in the past four months.

  Liu Aihua, spokesperson of the National Bureau of Statistics, pointed out that under the effect of a series of policies to stabilize foreign trade, trade diversification and trade facilitation measures have been effective continuously. The export performance is not bad whether it is accumulated from January to July or the data of the month of July, indicating that the impact of Sino-US economic and trade friction is generally controllable.

  In terms of imports, imports in July reached 1,214 billion yuan, a six-month high; It increased by 0.4%, compared with a decrease of 0.4% last month. From January to July, imports reached 7,932.5 billion yuan, an increase of 1.3%.

  "Imports have shown two positive changes: the growth rate has rebounded for two consecutive months, and the import of high-quality consumer goods has continued to grow rapidly, thanks to the stable and positive performance of China’s economy, the upgrading of domestic consumption and the release of policy dividends." Zhang Jianping said.

  The achievements in structural optimization are tangible.

  In addition to the improvement in quantity and speed, China’s foreign trade has also performed well in terms of quality and efficiency.

  A few days ago, the assembly box area in land port, Changchun was busy. Boxes of floors, car windshields, brake pads and monitors are exported to Russia, Germany and other places through the China-Europe train. "Changchun and other northeastern cities in China have gathered a number of top automobile manufacturers and their supporting spare parts enterprises, and Bavaria, where Nuremberg is located, is a major town of German automobile manufacturing, so industrial clusters with similar structures can produce great linkage effects." Demi Ben, general manager of Changchun land port German Co., Ltd. said. Up to now, "Changman Europe" has carried more than 43,000 TEUs of imported and exported goods, with the value exceeding 13.8 billion yuan.

  See a leopard in a glimpse. In the first seven months of this year, the level of trade facilitation between China and countries along the "Belt and Road" continued to improve, with the import and export increasing by 10.2%, driving the overall import and export growth by 2.8 percentage points. Imports and exports with traditional trading partners, EU and ASEAN, increased by 10.8% and 11.3% respectively. In the first half of the year, China’s import and export with 25 trading partners that signed free trade agreements increased by 3.8%.

  The optimization of the structure is not only in the international market layout, but also in the domestic regional layout. From January to July, the export of the central and western regions increased by 13.8%, 7.1 percentage points higher than the overall growth rate, and the proportion increased by 1.1 percentage points to 17.5%.

  Endogenous motivation is constantly increasing. In the first half of the year, the number of private enterprises with import and export performance reached 336,000, an increase of 8.5%, accounting for nearly 80%. From January to July, the import and export of private enterprises increased by 11.8%, accounting for 42% of the total import and export, an increase of 2.9 percentage points over the same period of last year.

  The commodity structure is constantly upgrading. The export of mechanical and electrical products increased by 6.1%, 0.8 percentage points faster than that in January-June. Among them, the export of high-tech, high-quality and high value-added products such as integrated circuits, metal processing machine tools, excavators and medical devices all maintained double-digit growth. At the same time, the import of high-quality consumer goods achieved rapid growth.

  "Since this year, foreign trade has been in &lsquo; Quality &rsquo; The progress made in this regard is gratifying. " Zhang Jianping said that the competitiveness of general trade has been continuously enhanced, the export of high-tech products has increased significantly, private enterprises have become the "main force" of import and export, and trading partners have been expanding continuously. These achievements are all real.

  Stable foreign trade policy reserves are still sufficient.

  Achievements are worthy of recognition, and challenges cannot be ignored. In Zhang Jianping’s view, at present, the global trade tension is escalating, and finally the demand is weak and the growth momentum is weakened. In the face of challenges, the most important thing is to do your own thing, maintain strategic strength, and promote the stability and quality of foreign trade.

  The the State Council executive meeting held not long ago determined the measures to further stabilize foreign trade: to study and continue to reduce the overall level of import tariffs, improve the export tax rebate policy, and speed up the tax rebate process. Give full play to the role of export credit insurance, promote the expansion of coverage, reasonably reduce premiums, and study and propose special types of insurance that meet the needs of enterprises; Guide financial institutions to increase foreign trade financing support for small and medium-sized enterprises; Create conditions to improve the convenience of RMB settlement. Accelerate the development of new formats such as cross-border e-commerce and bonded maintenance of processing trade, and cultivate import trade demonstration zones. Great breakthroughs have been made in simplifying the supervision documents of import and export links, shortening customs clearance time and reducing port charges.

  The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Commerce introduced that since the beginning of this year, various departments and localities have increased policy support and actively cultivated new trade formats and new models. The third batch of 22 cross-border e-commerce comprehensive test zones was accelerated. In the first half of the year, the import and export of cross-border e-commerce retail increased rapidly. The first batch of used cars were successfully exported in July, and the export scale is expected to expand rapidly in the second half of the year. In the next step, bonded maintenance projects for processing trade will continue to land, further attracting processing, manufacturing and production services with higher technical level and greater value-added content to China.

  Zhang Jianping believes that China’s policy reserves are still sufficient, and with the accelerated introduction and landing of more policies and measures to stabilize foreign trade, the endogenous motivation of enterprises will be further enhanced. At the same time, enterprises themselves need to work harder to enhance product competitiveness, actively expand the market and actively resist external risks.

  "China’s foreign trade is large, resilient and has sufficient stamina. We rely on the integrity of the domestic industrial chain, the huge domestic market, the diversity of the international market, the sufficient endogenous motivation of the main body and the continuous optimization of the structure." Zhu Yong, deputy director of the Foreign Trade Department of the Ministry of Commerce, said that he believed that through joint efforts, foreign trade could be improved steadily this year.

Cameron: I have plans to shoot Avatar 6 and 7. Whether the box office is successful depends on the third week.

All In

Recently, in order to promote Avatar: The Way of Water, director James Cameron was interviewed by The Hollywood Reporter. He mentioned that he had plans to shoot Avatar 6 and Avatar 7, but he might let other directors direct them, because he would be 89 years old by then (sic).

At present, among the sequels of Avatar planned by Disney, Avatar 3, Avatar 4 and Avatar 5 are scheduled on December 20, 2024, December 18, 2026 and December 22, 2028 respectively.

Cameron is on the set of Avatar: The Way of Water.

Cameron said: "The sequel to this series has been written from beginning to end, with four scripts and complete design. If given the chance, we know exactly what our goal is. If the audience wants to see it, if they like Avatar: The Way of Water enough, how many sequels will be completely driven by the market. "

Earlier, Cameron revealed that Avatar 2 had to exceed $2 billion at the global box office to break even. At present, the shooting team has finished shooting the motion capture parts of Avatar 2, Avatar 3 and Avatar 4, which took a total of 16 months.

In this interview article entitled "All In", Cameron said: "I will be 89 years old by then (in 2043). Obviously, I can’t make Avatar movies indefinitely, which requires a lot of energy. I must train someone (to take over) I don’t care how smart you are as a director, you don’t know how to shoot this series well. "

Interview with Cameron by The Hollywood Reporter

Cameron was born in 1954, and he is 68 years old. In an interview, he estimated that he might make five or six movies for the rest of his life, and three of them are probably Avatar series.

The environmental topic mentioned in Avatar, which was released in 2009, attracted attention, but he said that the sequel would be a little different: "You can’t overdo the environmental elements. Now people’s lives are anxious enough … Maybe things that didn’t appear in 2009 have happened now, and environmental problems are no longer entertainment."

Cameron said that the purpose of Avatar: The Way of Water is not to make people afraid of climate change, but to propose alternative ways forward through the choice of the role of Nami in the film. He said: "We have gone from completely denying climate change to fatalistic acceptance, as if there is no middle way. I don’t make movies to make everything gloomy and destructive, but to provide constructive solutions. "

Cameron is on the set of Avatar: The Way of Water.

In the autumn of 2010, Cameron promised to make two more Avatar films, and reached an agreement with FOSS, that is, the film company and Cameron will jointly fund a non-profit organization, the Avatar Foundation, to support the rights and interests of indigenous people and environmental protection.

At that time, FOSS proudly announced the release date of the first sequel: December 2014.

Cameron said: "I never believed those self-entertainment schedules they announced." Only after he dived into the Mariana Trench in 2012 did he seriously consider making a film. In the first few months, he just took notes: thoughts on Pandora’s biology, culture and theme.

Inspired by his experience in making the sci-fi TV series "Dark Angel" for Fox in the early 21st century, he convened a TV drama-style scriptwriter’s room in mid-2013. "On the first day, I walked in, dropped 800 pages of notes and said, do your homework, and I’ll see you next week. ’”

In the end, he handed the scriptwriting task of Avatar 2 to Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver, and the couple successfully restarted the Rise of the Planet of the Apes series. The script writing process took four years, and four sequels were completed in one breath.

Cameron is on the set of Avatar: The Way of Water.

Cameron finally started filming Avatar 2 in September 2017. Just a few months after filming, Cameron found that his boss had changed: Disney bought 20th Century Flowserve for $71.3 billion.

Interestingly, when Cameron and producer Landau "peddled" Avatar in Hollywood in 2005, they showed test clips to then Disney CEO robert a.iger and CFO Alan Bogman. Disney was satisfied and wanted to invest, but in the end Cameron chose his old partner, 20th Century Flowserve.

In March 2019, when Disney completed the acquisition of Foss, Alan Bogman met with Cameron and Landau again. Bogman said to them, "Look, Jim (Cameron), we have to buy the film company in order to get the sequel to Avatar."

In fact, after the global success of Avatar 13 years ago, Disney also spent $500 million to establish the Avatar scenic spot in Disneyland, Florida, USA, and has always been interested in this IP.

Talking about the box office pressure of Avatar: The Way of Water, Cameron said that his movie was different from Marvel Comics and DC superhero movies, which had a big box office in the first week and a 60% drop in the second week, and took a long-flowing model. Some media asked Cameron what to do if the 190-minute movie audience wanted to go to the toilet. He replied, "Just buy a ticket and brush it for the part that was missed when going to the toilet!"

Cameron is not completely joking. In the past, audiences liked to brush his movies twice or even three times. Whether it is Titanic or Avatar, these two high-grossing movies didn’t have a high box office. In December 2009, Avatar’s first weekend box office was only $79 million. After that, its release fell by only 8% every week and lasted for 10 weeks.

Therefore, Cameron said, to judge whether the market of Avatar: The Way of Water is successful, we can’t just look at the box office on the first weekend, but we will know it in the third week.

Cameron used to quarrel with Flowserve executives because of budget overruns when filming Titanic and Avatar. But this time, he said that Disney got along well with each other, and the two sides were still in their honeymoon period. He said, "It’s hard to say, if Avatar: The Way of Water doesn’t make money, then the honeymoon period will be over."

In the eyes of many people, it seems that movie audiences don’t like 3D movies so much nowadays. After all, too many 3D movies are dim and the audience experience is very poor. But viewers will pay for specific 3D movies. In September this year, Avatar was re-released in many markets, including the United States, and got a box office of $76 million, 97% of which came from 3D screens.

This replay also made Cameron realize that audiences who were children in 2009 are still interested in 3D movies.

No matter what the prospect of 3D movies is, no one denies that Avatar has promoted the popularity of 3D screens. When Avatar was released in 2009, there were only 6,000 digital 3D screens in the world, and now it is 110,000.

As for whether Avatar is derived from streaming media on TV series, Cameron said that this work relies too much on motion capture and CG, which is too expensive for TV series. "I can only say that it may be possible if technology develops to a certain extent, but I am not interested in making Avatar into a TV series now."
