The Prime Minister Liu Luoguo, which was broadcast in 1996, was popular all over the country and influenced a generation of viewers.

Liu Luoguo did exist in history. He was a famous minister of the Qing Dynasty, Liu Yong. After Qianlong and Jiaqing dynasties, he was an official with He Shen.

What is being broadcast nowLiu Yong Chasing the CaseIt is also his story, and the styles of the two plays are somewhat similar.

　 　 　 　

　 　 　 　

In today’s market environment, you can also see the high-cost drama starring He Bing, and you can also see the long-lost Qing Dynasty official drama. The excitement and expectations have been raised a lot, but7 episodes, it is hard to hide disappointment.

The official dramas and historical dramas of the Qing Dynasty were once one of the most vigorous dramas in the history of China’s TV dramas, which contributed countless classics, showed humanistic concern, and even included people’s wisdom and enlightenment. But now it is almost extinct, and it is hard to appear, and it has lost its former glory and strength.

Welcome to the "Phoenix Net Index-Comprehensive List of Movies" applet, and express your views on "Liu Yong Chasing the Case" ~

Long-lost historical drama

At the end of the last century and the beginning of the new century, China is at the juncture of economic transformation, and all kinds of ideas collide, and the creation of various types of domestic dramas has reached its peak. Among the flowers, historical dramas are also included.

In 1991, Taiwan Province and the mainland co-produced "The Story of the Dragon", which opened a precedent for the drama of the mainland and became popular on both sides of the strait.

　 　 　 　

　 　 　 　

Since then, there has been an upsurge in the creation of historical dramas, and a series of classic dramas have been born one after another.

In addition to Prime Minister Liu Luoguo in 1995, there are Kangxi’s Private Visit in 2000, Ji Xiaolan with Iron Teeth and Copper Teeth in 2001, Li Wei’s Being an Official, and Happy Doctor in 2003.

These historical dramas are in sharp contrast with some historical dramas at that time, such as Yongzheng Dynasty (1999), Yu Chenglong, a generation of honest officials (2000), Kangxi Dynasty (2002), The Granary of the World (2002) and Towards the Republic (2003).

The so-called "joke" refers to the fact that the creator does not completely rely on the authenticity of historical records, and does not abide by the limitations of historical environment on characters; It focuses on the attitude of the creators, includingThe unconstrained folk imagination and free play.

Just like the ending song "Things in the Story" of "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo" sings-

Things in the story, if you say no, you don’t, yes and no. What happened in the story may be true. What happened in the story may have never happened. In fact, a story is a story, and a story is a story.

　 　 　 　

　 　 　 　

Of course, joking doesn’t mean nonsense. Just as Liu Heping, a famous writer of historical dramas, said, "The audience likes joking, but we also have a principle: the characters emphasize joking, but the historical background is real and the audience will."Feel the true sense of history under the fictional comedy plot.That is to say, to play well, but also to chew. "

The beauty of a joke drama mainly stems from its comic effect and the rivalry between officialdom, which often forms a contrast through the harmonious conflict between characters.

　 　 　 　

　 　 　 　

The "chewing head" of the joke drama lies in that it relies on the real historical background and characters, and through the confrontation, balance and compromise between the monarch and the minister and between loyalty and traitors,Deeply understand the essence of China’s ancient officialdom.

For example, in the relationship between Ji Xiaolan-He Shen and Liu Yong-He Shen, Gan Long is the mediator.

In many storms, He Shen always got away with it. It’s not that Qianlong didn’t know he was corrupt, but that Qianlong enjoyed He Shen’s flattery and was handy, and he also needed to use He Shen to balance the courtiers’ relationship. The subtlety between the monarch and the minister is quite interesting.

In "Ji Xiaolan with Iron Teeth and Copper Teeth", the part where the sand is scattered by the dragon is praised so far.

　 　 　　

Comedy and satire are just one side of this kind of drama.

The whole drama "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo" laughs and curses, criticizes the current disadvantages, and finally ends in sadness and desolation. The prosperous time has been obviously decadent, a generation of emperors have white hair and tears, and a generation of famous ministers have gone home.At that time, the drama could tell the rise and fall with jokes.

　 　 　　

　 　 　 　 　

Liu Yong Chasing the Case is better than nothing.

Liu Yong Chasing the Case has many shortcomings, but the opening story is very interesting.

During the Qianlong period, there was a pile in Shandong."False transmission of imperial edicts and seizure of officials"In the major case, Cai Yongchang, the magistrate of Dongchang, was seized by a bunch of "fake officials" and mysteriously disappeared on his way to Beijing to plead guilty. Millions of stolen silver also disappeared.

Hearing this, Qianlong (Huang Haibing) was furious and ordered Liu Yong (He Bing) to solve the case or deal with it according to law, and arranged for Fu Guotai (Li Naiwen), the governor of Shandong Province, to cooperate with He Shen (Alvin) in the investigation.

　 　 　 　

This big case is interspersed with countless small cases.It is a challenge for the screenwriter’s ability to control.

The category of "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo" and "Li Wei is an official" is closer to the unit drama, and every few episodes tell a short story.

Liu Yong Chasing the Case still retains several core features of Liu Luoguo, the Prime Minister: comedy, detective work, and the appearance of officialdom.

But in either case, it’s a little tasteless.

In the past, there were central protagonists and villains in official operas, so Ji Xiaolan’s story can be without Liu Yong, but there must be He Shen and Liu Yong’s story. One is right and one is evil, and the contradiction runs through.

But in Liu Yong Chasing the Case,Who are the core villains and what power they have? So far, they have not been shown.He Shen and Fuguotai are all like a cursory tour.

　 　 　 　

　 　

Liu Yong Chasing the Case claims to be a light comedy, and Liu Luoguo in Prime Minister Liu Luoguo also has humor, but he is a kind of cold humor. Most of the time, Liu Yong is a wise image of the elderly, and the comedy part is mainly played by He Shen.

　 　 　 　

　 　

In "Liu Yong Chasing the Case", He Shen doesn’t appear much at present, and the comedy mainly focuses on Liu Yong and his servant Xi ‘er. The two of them will talk about simple and honest Shandong dialect for a while, and Beijing dialect that will tease the poor for a while, which is a bright spot.

So compared with Liu Yong in Li Baotian,He Bing version of Liu Yong has a little more humor, which will make people feel a little "hard" in the performance.

For example, Liu Yong fascinated Fu Guotai and He Shen so as not to interfere with the trial of prisoners. After Fu Guotai and He Shen woke up, Liu Yong also pretended to be drunk.

Here, He Bing’s version of Liu Yong’s performance is a little "playing the fool and being fully distracted", and he always smiles at the two adults.

　 　 　　

On the contrary, He Shen and Fu Guotai appear "stable".

　 　 　

It’s not that He Bing’s performance is not good. Frankly speaking, few actors can hold the role now. But rather,The writer’s positioning of Liu Yong forced the actors to express their comic features.

Exploring the case is the weakest part of Liu Yong Chasing the Case.

Especially in contrast to He Bing’s Da Song Tiaoguan, the handling of detective cases in Liu Yong Chasing Cases is relatively childish.

All kinds of cases in the play-mainly the bizarre deaths of people related to the cases-have only one purpose, which hinders Liu Yong from seeking the truth and drives Liu Yong away from Shandong. But in the first few episodes, the main cause of bizarre death turned out to be being bitten by a poisonous insect.

　 　 　　

At this time, the role of poisonous insects is almost "fantasy": poisonous insects can not only bite people accurately, but also basically die as soon as they bite people. The method of detoxification is more mysterious, and drinking some water will be fine.

　 　 　 　

　　

This is actually the writer’s laziness or incompetence.It is impossible to conceive suspense more skillfully and reasonably., can only come up with a fantastic poisonous insect.

Looking at the leopard from a peep, the design in the play looks like that, but it can’t stand scrutiny.

For example, in the first episode, Liu Yong and Xi ‘er were fishing by the river, and they saw several bandits carrying a girl. They were unarmed and didn’t know kung fu. As a result, Liu Yong shouted the illusion on the spot, causing the bandits to want to kill them. If a bodyguard hadn’t suddenly appeared, the first episode would have been the finale.

　 　 　

Officialdom in the sky, "Liu Yong Zhuan" also has details.

For example, at the beginning, Ganlong recruited Liu Yong to investigate the case, and asked Liu Yong in front of Fu Guotai: Fu Guotai didn’t find out for a month, should he be punished?

　 　 　 　

Liu Yong was careless and didn’t jump into the pit dug by Qianlong, nor did he embarrass Fu Guotai face to face.

　 　 　 　

this isPhilosophy of getting along with officialdom, an emperor will not really cure the crime of wealth and prosperity; Second, Fu Guotai is the governor of Shandong, and he is deeply rooted in the local area. Liu Yong cannot offend him if he wants to go to Shandong. Third, Liu Yong may not be able to do a good job in the case. Now he helps the rich and the country get away with it, and he will have a way out in the future.

However, in the past, there were more profound criticisms on the relationship between monarch and minister and the people’s hearts. For example, many screenshots in Ji Xiaolan with Iron Teeth and Copper Teeth were widely circulated.

　 　 　

In contrast, Liu Yong Chasing the Case is still less penetrating and profound at present. itIn essence, it is a story of loyal monarch and loyal minister..

　 　 　　

playBai Bing plays Gege and Liu Yong’s wife.At present, it seems like afaulty stroke (in calligraphy). This lady is unruly and willful. Liu Yong went to Shandong to handle a case on orders, but she didn’t dare to tell her, for fear of being stopped.

My wife thinks that Liu Yong is in danger in Shandong, so she wants to bring him back to Beijing, which has little effect except making the audience angry and keeping the water running for a long time.

　 　 　　

But in any case, "Liu Yong Chasing the Case" made many viewers feel.Retro atmosphere.

In recent years, under the impact of other types of TV dramas, the influence of the "ancient restrictions" and the tightening of the creative environment, this kind of joke drama relying on the real historical background and characters has almost disappeared. If there is, it may also face difficulties in broadcasting.

Poor creation cultivates poor aesthetics, and also makes works with substance lose the market.

What’s more, in the era when Xiaorou plays the leading role and powerful actors play the supporting role, there are also dramas in which Mesozoic actors take the lead and have no traffic, and it is true that one is missing.

Liu Yong Chasing the Case can only be said that talking is better than nothing.

　　How do domestic films win audiences with fine products?

　　— — Film market survey in the first half of 2017

　　Guangming Daily reporter Villi

　　According to the latest data, the national box office revenue in the first half of the year totaled 27.17 billion yuan, including 16.71 billion yuan for imported films and 10.456 billion yuan for domestic films. What are the new features of China’s film box office? Why are domestic films inferior to imported films? How should the structural reform of China’s film supply side be promoted? The reporter conducted an investigation for this.

　　ⅰ. The game between domestic and imported domestic films accounted for only 38.5% of the box office.

　　Data In the first half of 2017, the box office of imported films totaled 16.717 billion yuan, and the box office of domestic films was 10.456 billion yuan. In the first half of 2017, the box office of imported films accounted for 61% of the domestic box office. Among them, there are 41 films with box office exceeding 100 million, 17 domestic films and 24 imported films.

　　Specifically, Speed and Passion 8 ranked first at the box office in the first half of the year with 2.49 billion yuan, and Kung Fu Yoga ranked second with 1.75 billion yuan.

　　In the first half of the year, domestic films with strong box office performance were basically concentrated in the Spring Festival file, and then the market leader was domestic films. In addition to the Spring Festival movies, the lack of "explosions" is an important reason why domestic movies are not satisfactory in recent months.

　　Domestic films are not as good as imported films at the box office, especially in March this year. In March, no domestic film grossed more than 100 million yuan, and the market share of imported films reached an astonishing 95.5%, completely monopolizing the mainland film market. In the following months, imported films have been the main box office. At present, among the top ten annual box office, only three domestic films, Kung Fu Yoga, Journey to the West, and Riding the Wind and Waves, occupy three seats.

　　Judging from the distribution of the overall box office interval, the number of films exceeding 500 million yuan in 2017 is very eye-catching, and the number of films exceeding 1 billion yuan reached 8 in the first half of the year, which is close to the achievement of 9 films in 2016 and much higher than the overall level in 2015, 2014 and 2013. This shows that there are many "heavyweight" products in this year’s film, and the performance is particularly eye-catching.

　　According to industry experts, another reason affecting the overall box office in the first half of the year is the asymmetry between the number and the single box office performance. In 2017, the fantasy genre took the lead with 470 million yuan, followed by action movies with 420 million yuan. Among the domestic films released, the top three types were comedy, thriller and love. As an action and science fiction film with obvious pull-up effect, subsequent domestic films need to make more efforts.

　　Not long ago, a movie "Transformers 5: The Last Knight" kicked off the summer movie file in 2017. Facing the upcoming summer file, domestic films are eager to try, and domestic and imported films will usher in a new round of game.

　　Ⅱ. Race between Speed and Quality. The effectiveness of film supply in China needs to be improved urgently.

　　Data The box office of Chinese movies was in 2003— During 2010, it took 8 years to increase from 900 million yuan to 10 billion yuan; It took three years to grow from 10 billion yuan to 20 billion yuan; From 20 billion yuan to 40 billion yuan, it only took two years. The growth of demand has led to the rapid growth of domestic films. In recent years, the number of domestic films has grown from less than 100 to more than 900, and the number of screens has grown from more than 3,000 to more than 40,000, with a rapid growth rate.

　　From a certain perspective, speed and quality are inherently a contradiction. While seeking speed, quality growth is easily overlooked.

　　"In 2016, the domestic box office was 45.7 billion yuan, and the overall box office growth slowed down, increasing by 3.7% year-on-year. In 2016, there was a negative growth in seven months. The first half of this year is coming to an end, and the growth of box office in China is still in a stalemate, especially from 3 to 3— — In May, overseas imported films occupied an absolute advantage, taking away more than 70% of the box office in March, April and May respectively. " Ren Zhonglun, Chairman and President of Shanghai Film Group, pointed out that the data shows that the demand for China films is growing, the supply is growing faster, and the availability of supply is declining.

　　2017— According to the Analysis Report on the Present Situation and Development Prospect of China Film Industry in 2022, in 2016, there were 1,612 new cinemas and 9,552 new screens in China. In 2016, the total number of screens in China has reached 41,179, surpassing the United States to become the country with the largest number of movie screens in the world.

　　The number of movies in China has increased, and the scale of cinemas has expanded, but the satisfaction of the audience and the satisfaction of demand have been reduced.

　　There is no increase, in fact, the efficiency of each cinema is also declining. How to speak with content and how to keep the audience in their seats with good stories has become an important issue and test for industrial development.

　　Experts pointed out that at present, domestic films mainly face three problems: one is the availability and quality of supply, the other is that the types are not diverse enough, and the most important thing is the lack of film and television works that can impress people and resonate with everyone.

　　"Socialist films with China characteristics should be made in Do not forget your initiative mind, and the excellent historical tradition, cultural accumulation and basic national conditions of China films should not be forgotten. The film should spread progressive ideas, inspire people and improve the quality of the Chinese nation. This is the initial intention of the film. " Chengxiang Zhong, the former vice chairman of the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles and a famous literary critic, pointed out at the film "Home" seminar a few days ago that we have shot a large number of films with major themes, but most of them are not aesthetically pleasing and artistic, so they cannot infect people or attract people. Without attraction and appeal, they lack communication power.

　　"China movies are not short of stories at first, nor are we unable to tell stories. I think stories and cultural creation have always been China’s strengths." Ren Zhonglun said that we are short of good scripts, talents and directors, and our comprehensive ability needs to be improved.

　　In the view of Jiang Wei, executive director of Gravitation Film and Television, it is not urgent to be a content industry: "If you invest in movies or content, if a fast-forward and fast-out method may not be suitable for this industry, this industry still needs to sink down and make a movie. Good things are made, not robbed. "

　　Ⅲ. Paradox between Great Powers and Powerful Countries; Domestic films should achieve breakthroughs with fine products.

　　Data In 2016, the total number of domestic films was 944, and 334 films were shown in cinemas. However, only 15 films scored more than 7 on Douban, and the film industry in China needs a "tempering". In 2016, China only watched movies once per capita, while North America saw 3.7 times. China has 30 screens per million people, while North America has 121 screens.

　　Faced with the growth of cinema and box office market, many people ask whether the number of movie screens in China is saturated.

　　"It is too early to talk about saturation at this point in time." Yu Xin, general manager of Dadi Cinema Group, pointed out that there is still a lot of room for growth in the number of screens and box office market in China in the future. We have just passed a rapid growth period and will enter a stable and relatively mature growth period, which has caused a mismatch between supply and demand.

　　After sturm und drang in the past few years, the film industry in China ushered in a turning point in 2016, with the growth rate dropping to single digits, and the once frenetic development instantly fell to freezing point. Correspondingly, the stock price of individual stocks in the film and television industry has collapsed, and film and television capital has entered a cold winter.

　　Ren Zhonglun believes that the cold winter of the film and television industry is due to the problems of shoddy production, single type and capital drive, and the lack of Wrestling! Dad, a movie that really touches people’s hearts and resonates. "Our supply has been growing, but the effectiveness of supply is declining. What we need to think about is how to improve the quality, effectiveness and rationality of the film supply structure, and how to make the film industry in China ‘ Pain point ’ Become ‘ Highlight ’ 。” Ren Zhonglun said.

　　Ren Zhonglun takes a set of data as an example to analyze. In 2016, the total number of domestic film productions reached 944, only one step away from the annual output of 1,000. Among them, 334 were shown in the cinema. China is already a big movie country, but "big" doesn’t mean "strong", and it lacks high-quality movies that can really satisfy the audience and classic works that can be remembered by the audience.

　　"Domestic films should respect the audience." Wang Zhonglei, vice chairman and CEO of Huayi Brothers, said that movie audiences in China are not young people who just want to entertain and don’t think, as described in big data. Their taste and judgment have been improved rapidly in recent years. Facing the slowdown of box office growth and the pressure of overseas blockbusters, there is only one way for China films to make a breakthrough, that is, to produce truly high-quality films and meet the demand of China film audiences for good films.

　　Guangming Daily (July 9, 2017, 07 edition)

April 28th this year is He Jiong’s 46th birthday, and it is also the annual release date of He Bang. Yesterday, # Who can get the No.1 on the list # got a hot search and became an online carnival with interactive star fans.

The so-called "He Bang", originally an easy term for rice circles, refers to the ranking of hot comments made by fans who helped their loved beans under Weibo on He Jiong’s birthday. Because it can directly reflect the real fan voice of the star, "He Bang" has become a witness to the change of entertainment flow in a certain sense.

By 2019, the total number of fans of entertainment stars on Weibo has reached nearly 20 billion. When the number of users is large enough and the fan economy is maturing, stars, fans, support and socialization are constantly colliding with new ways of playing.

Weibo is still the first platform for star powder interaction.

Every year, most entertainment circles celebrate He Jiong’s birthday. In He Laoshi’s comment area of Weibo on the same day, all kinds of traffic will meet, and fans will join the army of comments. The "He Bang" is comparable to the touchstone of entertainment popularity.

Similar to netizens calling for Shanzheng’s brother and Jiefan’s "sunset red group building" in Jay Chou, He Bang is another online social activity organized by fans spontaneously because of stars, which finally set off phenomenal network events. With the maturity of the pink circle culture and the participation of pan-entertainment users, new ways of interaction between stars and fans are constantly emerging.

According to statistics, the total number of fans of entertainment stars in Weibo has maintained rapid growth in the past three years: 12.8 billion in 2017, 16.7 billion in 2018 and 19.2 billion in 2019.

Weibo, as the largest open social platform, not only attracts stars to settle in, but also attracts their fans. 90% of the head stars have support clubs to open online support in Weibo, and there are 2,485 blue V certified support clubs. Among them, 30% are only in idolize, Weibo platform, and have never settled in other social products. In addition, there are 14,215 orange V certified fan stations and KOL.?

In addition to the fan base, Weibo has a large number of pan-entertainment users who are also willing to participate in the star-powder interaction and experience the fan play. As of June 2019, the number of celebrity classified super-words reached 180 million.

Xu Zhengchao and Jay Chou Chao who caused phenomenal network events (deadline: 21: 40 on April 29th).

Especially since the "Idol Year" in 2018, popular draft players represented by KUN and fans have formed a very sticky relationship with each other in Weibo through various forms of interaction, such as becoming iron powder, helping the star power list, editing and submitting videos. Idols also strengthened their popularity through Weibo after the draft and continued to suck powder.

These data show that Weibo is still firmly on the first platform of fan economy and star fan interaction. Online collective activities such as He Bang and other stars and fans can only take place on the Weibo platform.

"He Bang" forwarding area at 21: 40 on April 29th.

Why can only He Jiong’s birthday form a list?

In the domestic entertainment circle, He Jiong is unique. On the one hand, he has strong professionalism, deep qualifications and wide connections; On the other hand, He Laoshi has always been famous for his understanding and high emotional intelligence. His immortal friendship with artists of his peers and his love for younger artists are all talked about by everyone, and he is well-known in the circle.

Huang Lei once commented on He Jiong: "He has helped too many people in his life. Too many young people, the last "Happy Camp", He Laoshi felt good, he would recommend it to others, and there was no purpose. " The new generation of artists, more or less have been taken care of by He Jiong.

Weibo Hot Search # Happy Family Members Celebrate He Jiong’s Birthday #

Counting the "He Bang" over the years is almost the ups and downs of the latest top stream in the entertainment circle. If a play is a hit in a certain year, the birthday wishes issued by its leading actor are likely to appear at the forefront of the "He Bang" in the following year.

In the second half of 2016, Weibo launched the hot ranking function, so 2017 was the first year of Hebang, when TFBOYS occupied a popular highland;

In 2018, Jackson Yee and Karry are still in the top two, followed by LAY, Zhao Liying, Roy, Daxun Wei and Yang Mi. Shen Yue and Hu Yi Tian, starring in "To Our Simple Little Beauty", are in the forefront;

2019 is a year for He Bang to move towards the real popularity list, with more than 130 stars sending birthday wishes and comments exceeding one million. TFBOYS leads steadily. KUN, Chen Linong and Adam, who debuted in Idol Trainee, Lu Han and Wu Yifan, who have traditional traffic, Meng Mei Qi of Creation 101, and a group of florets, etc. have all squeezed into the list. Peng Yuchang Zifeng Zhang, who became popular with "Get My Brother Away" and further circled in "The Life I yearn for", has also been praised by netizens.

"He Bang" comment area at 21: 40 on April 29th.

This year, perhaps in order to keep a low profile in the epidemic year, He Jiong set up a hidden birthday in Weibo in advance. However, the birthday dynamic cards automatically released by Weibo system have still become the data battlefields for fans.

After the card was released, it won 30,000 comments and 180,000 likes in just ten minutes. Up to now, Weibo’s comments and comments on this article have both exceeded the display limit (1 million), and the praise has reached 33 million+.

As of 21: 40 on April 29th, He Jiong’s birthday was Weibo.

Yang Di quipped under Roy’s comments, "You are still popular, so you rushed to the front of me, obviously I came first." The profile shows that although it is very important to seize the initiative and gain the favor of passers-by, the final ranking of the "He Bang" is still heat.

In 2020, the "He Bang" champion will continue to be led by Jackson Yee Lian Lian and TFBOYS, and the crowd will form the first echelon. YiBo, R1SE and other artists who were active last year and had been on the same stage with He Jiong also ranked higher. Jackson Yee’s comments alone received 150,000 replies and 1.45 million likes.

The book "The Third Wave" once predicted the era of "production consumers", and star fans are typical production consumers-they interact with stars, have an impact on star brands, and together with stars, have communication influence and commercial value. At present, Weibo has successfully built a good fan ecosystem, and "He Bang" is just a microcosm of it.

Although the proportion of "little sister rider" and "big brother rider" is low, they don’t let a young man be old and strong, and their work performance is equally excellent.

On average, a riderI have to work 8 hours a day, stand by for 12 hours and deliver 48 orders.. If the average distance between merchants and diners is 3 kilometers and each order is 1.5 people, the rider travels nearly 150 kilometers every day, saving diners 100 hours and walking 400 kilometers less every day.

And this is just a microcosm of millions of riders. Behind this microcosm, there are more data details; Behind the details of the data, it is the embarrassment that riders exchange sweat for a better life.

Hard-working riders

The horizontal axis represents time and the vertical axis represents order quantity.

Four o’clock in the morning is the quietest time of the day in Shanghai, a super city. Most residents have fallen asleep, and the riders have started the "handover" of work: the riders who have delivered the supper can finally get off work, and another group of riders get up early to prepare for the first breakfast today.

A qualified rider must have a good physical strength, get up in the morning and endure at night.

However, super endurance is only part of the rider’s necessary working ability.

Each horizontal rectangular combination in the figure represents the working state of a rider on a certain day in July 2018. The period marked in blue indicates that the rider is running on the road, and the period marked in white indicates that the rider has no pick-up ticket or is in a rest state.

As can be seen from the above picture (combined with the above picture), the working hours of riders are highly fragmented. The rider’s workload is not evenly distributed in all time periods: every time the order for "meals" comes like the tide, the rider must work continuously for several hours with high intensity; However, there are fewer orders during the non-"meal" period, and whether you can grab the order successfully depends on your hand speed.

Working 8 hours a day, waiting for 12 hours, cycling between high-intensity running and fragmented grabbing, this is the real working state of the rider.

These are just the "daily" of the rider. Special weather conditions are the real test for riders.

Based on non-rainy days, the heavier the rain, the more take-away orders.

It can be seen that the number of orders in rainy days is far more than that in non-rainy days, and even close to 1.7 times in rainy days. At this time, some riders will choose to rest in rainy days, while others regard rainy days as an excellent opportunity to run more singles.

Real riders dare to face up to the surge in orders and the bad weather.

A variety of styles of riders

Generally speaking, the work area of each rider is relatively fixed (you can go back to the first picture at the beginning), and it is more efficient to be familiar with the store and familiar with the door. However, the size of each rider’s "territory" varies greatly.

In the picture above, a dot represents a rider. The horizontal axis represents the main activity range of the rider (95% threshold of latitude and longitude of the area visited in a week, converted into square kilometers), and the vertical axis represents the average daily riding distance of the rider in kilometers. The more riders in this area, the deeper the blue background.

We selected a group of riders with average daily orders (about 45 orders), and counted their range of activities and average daily riding distance. It can be seen that the smallest range of activities of these riders is only 18 square kilometers, and the larger one is close to 35 square kilometers. Although the range of activities is nearly 2 times, everyone’s riding distance is about 150 kilometers. Why is this happening?

We can guess:Although the goal is "running less and running more", different riders have different working styles.

Based on this speculation, we selected 11 dimensions to represent the rider’s food delivery style, and conducted principal component analysis (PCA) on these dimensions.(These 11 dimensions include: working hours, fragmentation of order time, proportion of lunch orders, proportion of dinner orders, proportion of meal orders, proportion of supper orders, average distance per order, size of activity range, ratio of length to width and radius of activity range, proportion of drop-by orders and average delivery time per order. )

[Readers who are not interested in PCA can skip this picture without affecting the full-text reading]The above figure depicts the importance of the two principal components of PCA. The horizontal axis is principal component 1, the vertical axis is principal component 2, 11 arrows represent 11 variables, and the coordinates represent their projections on the two principal component axes. It can be seen that the rider’s food delivery style has two basic components: time (principal component 1) and space (principal component 2). And the drop-in list and the average delivery distance per order are the combination of time and space components.

On this basis, we carry out K-means clustering and divide the work style of riders into 9 categories. As shown in the figure below, each point in the figure represents a rider, and riders in the same polygon have the same style.

From the nine styles, we select four most distinctive ones and analyze them.

The first type: "velocity flow" style

The above picture shows the activity path of a rider with a "speed flow" style at a certain time of the day. Blue marks represent riders, red dots represent restaurants, yellow dots represent customers, and blue lines represent riders’ running paths. It can be seen that the rider’s activity area is not large, and the restaurants and customers are very dense.

The riders of "Speed Stream" are mostly active in densely populated and order-intensive areas (such as the city center). Their characteristics are small activity range (average 20 square kilometers) and fast food delivery (average delivery time is 23 minutes). They can usually get more orders and better customer comments.

The second type: "downstream flow" style

We define the concept of "drop-in order": the rider has also handled other orders during the process from picking up meals to delivering meals. The meaning of "downstream flow" is "high proportion of downstream bills". The above picture shows the activity path of a rider with a "downstream flow" style at a certain time of the day. In the rider’s activity area, the location of restaurants and customers is sparse. This rider often runs several restaurants and then several customers in a row.

A bold and cautious rider is not afraid of running far, and he is afraid that there are not many orders; No Jin Gangzuan, no porcelain work. The average range of activities of "Riverside Riders" is 30 square kilometers, but as high as 80%, they don’t need to run many more roads. Adopting this working style not only tests riders’ familiarity with road buildings in the area, but also tests their ability of route planning and time control, and it is also a great challenge to the ability of improvisation.

The third type: "grab a meal" style

The above picture shows the activity path of a "grab a meal" style rider at a certain time of the day. The rider didn’t go to work until 11 o’clock in the morning, and he was so busy that he flew. 1-3 pm, the rider has a long rest; Get busy again around 4 o’clock.

About 60% of the riders’ orders in a day are concentrated in lunch and dinner (the industry average is 45%). They combine work and rest, go all out at the peak of the order, their hands and feet are much faster than their peers, and they have a good rest after heavy work until the next meal arrives.

The fourth type: "Desperate Lang" style

The above picture shows the activity path of a "Desperate Lang" style rider at a certain time of the day. The rider ran continuously from 7: 00 a.m. on June 19th to 1: 00 a.m. on June 20th for nearly 18 hours.

There are some riders. They are on the road when you have breakfast, and they are still on the road when you have supper. High attendance, many running orders, flowing customers, iron brother. It’s hard to travel for an average of 12 hours? "Desperate Lang" smiled, turned around and set foot on the journey again.

In the invisible competition with time and space, take-away riders are far from being as simple as "eating bitter".In the seemingly repetitive and monotonous rush, the rider combines the characteristics of his own ability and the characteristics of his work area, and develops his own style with experience and wisdom to complete his work and serve customers more efficiently.

One order after another, day after day. Riders appear in our mobile phone call records almost every day, and they are the most familiar strangers. They work hard and struggle for wisdom, so that we can have hot meals on time.

However, in recent media reports, people tend to pay more attention to accidental events such as "being late" and "poor attitude", while ignoring the punctuality and hospitality of riders most of the time.

Like many workers who have left their homes, riders have crossed hundreds of kilometers to integrate into the cities that give them hope, and they have fulfilled their promise of "on-time delivery" to customers with hard work. On the way of the rider’s food delivery, there are storms, competition, tempering and growth. When "little brother" gradually becomes "big brother", they may say something like this:

"A man’s life should be spent like this: when he looks back, he will not regret for wasting his time, nor will he be ashamed of being mediocre. When he retired, he could say: My beautiful youth and peak energy have been dedicated to the most magnificent cause in the world-the struggle to make human beings eat.

On June 23rd, Beijing time, it was reported that the son of Tesla CEO Elon Musk was not only transsexual, but also broke off relations with his father, which sounded strange. However, there is an old saying in China that "like father, like son". Perhaps you are not surprised to see Musk’s chaotic private life.

Musk’s repeated divorce is obviously unfavorable to the child’s growth, which may affect the child’s personality.

Musk currently has seven children and has been divorced three times, including one divorce, remarriage and then divorce. He and Canadian singer Grimes are now in a "semi-separated" state, and they are raising two children together. However, Musk was unwilling to be lonely and fell in love with a Hollywood actress.

Let’s take a look at Musk’s chaotic private life:

In 1971, Musk was born in Pretoria, South Africa. There are three children in the family. He is the eldest son. His mother, Maye Musk, is a Canadian model who once appeared on the cover of Time magazine. At the age of 69, she became the spokesperson for the cover girl of a famous American makeup brand. His father, Errol Musk, is an engineer.

Musk once told Rolling Stone that he had struggled with loneliness since he was a child. "When I was a child, I said one thing," Musk said, "‘ I never want to be alone. ’”

On the whole, Musk’s childhood life was not satisfactory. He was bullied mercilessly at school, and even was hospitalized because the abuser pushed him down the stairs. In about 1979, shortly after his parents divorced, Musk went to live with his father errol. Musk said that their relationship has now alienated.

Musk’s relationship with his younger brother Kimbal and his younger sister Tosca still seems to be very close. All of Musk’s brothers and sisters seem to have entrepreneurial characteristics: Kimbarl tries to make the food industry more sustainable and healthier, while Tosca has launched Passionflix, a love movie network.

The relationship between Musk and his mother also seems to be very good. It is reported that he gave Meyer a green Tesla. Meyer moved to California in 2013 to be closer to her children and grandchildren.

He met his first wife, Justine Wilson, at Queens University in Ontario, Canada. Wilson once recalled in the women’s magazine "Jia Ren" that Musk invited her out to eat ice cream. Although she decided to stay at home and study, Musk appeared. "There are two chocolate bean ice cream cones in his hand, and ice cream is dripping on his hand."

Then Musk went to wharton school to study, but he kept sending roses to Wilson.

Later, they went their separate ways, but when Musk started his first company and Wilson started writing her first novel after graduation, they got in touch again. Wilson said that Musk pursued her and gave her a credit card to buy as many books as she wanted. They got married in 2000.

They moved to Los Angeles and gave birth to a son named Nevada, but unfortunately died of sudden infant death syndrome. They finally gave birth to twins and triplets, a total of five children. In 2010, Musk called his children "the love of my life".

The two divorced in 2008. After the divorce, the tech tycoon started dating the actress Talulah Riley.

Although Musk and his first wife gradually drifted apart, Justin wrote in Jiaren magazine that she and Riley finally got along well. She even emailed her ex-husband’s girlfriend and said, "I’d rather live the French film version." The two women became friends and thought about various philosophies. "

Riley and Musk got married in 2010. Two years later, the news of their divorce was made public. At that time, Musk said to Riley on Twitter: "This is an amazing four years. I will love you forever. One day you will make others very happy. "

The two remarried in 2013. Musk applied for a second divorce in the second year, and then withdrew.

In 2016, Riley applied for divorce from Musk and decided to divorce at the end of that year. However, the relationship between the two is still very good, and Riley even appeared in an exclusive interview with Musk in Rolling Stone magazine. "We still meet often and take care of each other." She said.

In 2016, Musk started dating actress Amber Heard, but broke up a year later because of the tight schedule.

Musk commented on an Instagram post by Hilde that he and his predecessor "are still friends, close and in love with each other," adding, "Who knows what will happen in the future." He later told Rolling Stone magazine: "I really love her, which hurts me."

In May 2018, Musk and Canadian musician Grimes attended the annual Fashion Institute Celebration held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.. At that time, Page Six reported that the two had been "quietly dating" for several weeks.

Grimes and Musk met through Twitter. Musk had intended to make a joke about artificial intelligence, especially about her role as Rococo basilisk in the music video of "Bloody Meat", but found that she had already taken the lead.

Musk later told The Wall Street Journal that he liked Grimes’s "wild artistic creativity and serious work ethic".

In September 2018, Musk smoked marijuana while participating in the live webcast of American comedian Joe Rogan, which caused controversy. Musk seems to have a soft spot for marijuana culture. He said in 2018 that he was going to privatize Tesla for $420 per share. The number 420 is widely regarded as the code name for smoking marijuana. In April 2022, Musk proposed to acquire Twitter for $54.20 per share, which also included 420.

In January 2020, Grimes posted a photo on her Instagram and Twitter accounts that appeared to be pregnant. Later, she confirmed that she was pregnant with Musk’s child.

On May 4th, 2020, Musk announced the birth of their son. He and Grimes named him "XA-XII Musk", which seems to be pronounced "X Ash A-12". "Mother and child are safe." Musk wrote on Twitter.

In December of the same year, Musk said that he moved to Texas after several months of struggle with California’s epidemic prevention and control measures. Grimes and his baby X seem to have moved together. In March of that year, he shared a family photo taken near SpaceX facilities in southern Texas.

But in September 2021, Musk told Page Six that he and Grimes had broken up. Musk explained at the time: "Mainly because my work at SpaceX and Tesla requires me to stay in Texas or travel overseas most of the time, and her work is mainly in Los Angeles."

In March 2022, Grimes revealed in an interview with Vanity Fair that they secretly gave birth to a girl named Ayxa SiderlMusk through surrogacy.

Grimes explained that "Exa" refers to the supercomputer term "Exaflops", "Dark" stands for unknown factors, and "Sider?l" is the elvish spelling of stars, which means "the real time of the universe". Grimes and Musk called her Y for short.

Grimes told Vanity Fair that she and Musk are not getting back together, and their relationship is "very unstable", but they plan to have more children.

However, Musk seems to have a new love.In February of this year, Musk was photographed getting out of his private jet with Australian actress Natasha Bassett. It is said that the two have been secretly dating for several months.

In April this year, Musk’s 18-year-old transgender son applied for a legal name change to confirm his "female" gender identity and sever relations with Musk. In her application, she wrote that she no longer lives with her biological father and does not want to "have any relationship with her biological father".

　　　　China Journal Global Online News: Leaders of EU member states signed the Lisbon Treaty in Lisbon, Portugal, on the 13th. If the treaty is finally ratified by member States, it will pave the way for the reform of EU institutions.

　　　　The signing ceremony was held in Jeronimos Monastery, which was listed as a world cultural heritage by UNESCO. Portuguese Prime Minister Socrates, the rotating presidency of the European Union, European Commission President Barroso and European Parliament Speaker Petrin delivered short speeches successively.

　　　　Socrates said that the Lisbon Treaty will make the EU more modern, more efficient and more democratic, and will also make the EU’s voice in the world louder. Barroso said that the Lisbon Treaty will make the EU better serve the citizens of its member countries and make the EU’s foreign policy more coherent. The signing of the Lisbon Treaty has made the EU full of confidence in the future.

　　　　After the speech, the leaders of the 27 member States of the European Union signed the treaty one after another. The signing of the Lisbon Treaty marks the temporary end of the constitutional crisis that has plagued the EU for more than two years. According to the plan, the treaty ratification procedure will be completed in 2008 and will take effect before the European Parliament election in 2009.

　　　　In 2005, after the EU Constitutional Treaty was rejected by France and the Netherlands, the EU was caught in a constitutional crisis, and the issue of institutional reform was forced to be shelved. In March this year, EU leaders adopted the Berlin Declaration, announcing the end of the constitutional reflection period. The Lisbon Treaty, regarded as a simplified version of the EU Constitutional Treaty, was born six months later.

　　　　According to the Lisbon Treaty, the Council of the European Union will have a permanent president to replace the current rotation mechanism of the EU presidency once every six months; At present, the two overlapping functions of the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and the European Commission Commissioner for Foreign Affairs will be merged; The European Commission will be slimmed down, and the current practice of appointing an EU member in each member state will be abolished; Replace the current "effective majority voting system" with "double majority voting system"
