Xinhua News Agency, Geneva, October 31 (Reporter Shan Lei) On October 31, FIFA announced that Saudi Arabian Football Association was the only football association to submit an application for hosting the 2034 Football World Cup before the deadline.

FIFA confirmed that it has received an application from Saudi Arabia to host the 2034 World Cup, and Saudi Arabia is the only country that has expressed its interest in hosting the 2034 World Cup.

Previously, FIFA had announced that the only application for hosting the 2030 World Cup was jointly submitted by the Football Associations of Morocco, Portugal and Spain. At present, these three countries have confirmed their willingness to bid. As the centenary celebration of the World Cup will be held in 2030, FIFA plans to hold a World Cup in Uruguay, Argentina and Paraguay, and these three countries have also confirmed their willingness to host the World Cup.

Like Morocco, Portugal and Spain, Saudi Arabia still needs to pass the FIFA audit. If these bidding countries can meet the requirements of FIFA and go through the whole bidding process, then FIFA will determine its right to host at the FIFA General Assembly at the end of 2024.

Recently, the topic # Girls do aerobics for 2 hours every day, causing muscle dissolution # Rushed to hot search, which triggered many netizens to discuss.

According to the video report of Shaanxi Net Bailu, recently, Xiao Zhu of Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province began to feel sore in his lower limb muscles after exercise. It was not until the symptoms worsened and the urine color changed to soy sauce color that Xiao Zhu realized that the situation was wrong. After examination, Xiao Zhu’s blood creatinine, creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase and other indicators are seriously high. The doctor thinks that she is suffering fromRhabdomyolysis syndrome.

What is rhabdomyolysis? Can you get it if you eat crayfish? How to prevent it?

Rhabdomyolysis is not a disease.

Human muscles are mainly divided into three categories, including skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle and smooth muscle. Striated muscle refers to skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle. As a "strength type" muscle, striated muscle is one of the main types of human muscles.

The so-called "rhabdomyolysis" is actually caused by some factors that destroy skeletal muscle cells and release a substance called "myoglobin" into the blood. Myoglobin is broken down into some toxic substances, which may block renal tissue and lead to renal failure.

"rhabdomyolysis" is not a disease, but a kind of clinical syndrome with similar manifestations, and its causes are various. The most typical manifestations are muscle pain, weakness and strong tea-like or soy sauce-colored urine. There may also be serious life-threatening situations, such as acute renal failure, arrhythmia, heart failure and liver failure.

Some media reports point the cause of rhabdomyolysis to crayfish. However, there is no necessary connection between rhabdomyolysis and crayfish, and its causes cover 39 categories and more than 100 kinds, including strenuous exercise, excessive alcohol and taking lipid-lowering drugs, such as atorvastatin.

Wang Silu, a senior national food inspector and internal auditor of HACCP food system in China, said that there is not enough evidence to prove that "eating crayfish will definitely induce rhabdomyolysis syndrome". Strictly speaking, crayfish can only be regarded as a "suspect" of disease, and its "criminal evidence" is not sufficient, but it can not be completely exonerated.

Most rhabdomyolysis has mild symptoms.

Xu Siyuan, an attending physician in the emergency department of Huashan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University, said that from the "rhabdomyolysis" cases admitted to the emergency department of the hospital in recent years:

Most of them are mild, and some patients can relieve their symptoms as long as they take more rest and drink more water.

Some patients with severe symptoms, if found in time and sent to the hospital as soon as possible, generally only need to achieve the purpose of diluting blood by rehydration, which will help to excrete damaged muscle cells, protect renal function and relieve symptoms.

Cases with the most serious symptoms, such as renal function injury or even failure, are rare in clinic, and these cases often need hemodialysis to be treated.

To prevent rhabdomyolysis syndrome, experts give the following suggestions-

First of all, exercise should be moderate and gradual. Warm up well before exercise, and replenish water and electrolyte properly during exercise.

Secondly, pay attention to drug factors. Rhabdomyolysis syndrome caused by misuse of drugs is not uncommon in clinic, so it is necessary to take the medicine according to the doctor’s advice in quantity and on time.

Excessive exercise can be judged as follows: for example, you can talk to people when running, and if your heart doesn’t feel overloaded, it is healthy exercise; When exercising, if a certain part of the body feels pain, you should reduce the number of exercises and the range of movements; Beginners should do aerobic exercise for 15~20 minutes.

If the posture of time can be so natural and unrestrained, what is terrible about the passing of time?

Recently, Zhou Yun, the cover figure of Bazaar Fashion in November, made a stunning appearance, writing down the positive solution that age is experience, years are the trajectory of life, and even wrinkles can be extremely vivid.

Shu Qi, who attended the event some time ago, also made us feel once again the calm and elegance of her body without any traces of age. Her ten-year self-discipline and real fashionable style make people yearn for it.

Because of the movie "Mom! Yanshu Wu, 84, has become an elegant grandmother in the hearts of countless girls. She loves to eat ice cream, and loves to be a plank and swallow. Old age is never an excuse for her to restrict herself from doing anything, because she thinks that a person’s appearance is changed from a good accomplishment to a good heart.

Entering the second half of life, in fact, the age is on a woman, which can be a medal and a kind of beauty. And several fashionable women who have been fascinated recently are also slowing down our anxiety about age.

After the age of 50, what will happen if you throw numerology and luck in the second half of that seemingly bleak life and start over? On Suzi de Givenchy, a Chinese model who was born in Hongkong, China, and grew up in new york, USA, this question was given a gorgeous answer.

On her twentieth birthday, young Suzi married Hubert de Givenchy, the nephew of fashion master Givenchy, in Paris, and then lived in Paris and gave birth to three children. However, her husband died of illness in 2016, and Suzi lost her lover.

However, she did not give up her love of life. As the first Asian face of the Givenchy family, by chance, Suzi was attracted by Versae Vanni, the agent of Next Model Company, and received a job offer. But at that time, Suzi did not agree, but just laughed at the fact that she was almost fifty years old.

After half a year’s deliberation, Suzi decided to join the modeling industry, because she felt that life could change direction at any age and at any time, and she should always dare to make a fresh start for life.

Suzi’s first rooftop show in her life was dedicated to Off-White. Her solemn black shape was impressive and conveyed the powerful energy she had at this age.

Then Suzi appeared on Balenciaga’s catwalk again, because she had Balenciaga’s favorite resilience, just like Joan Didion, a former writer, and Yang Ziqiong, an international movie star.

On Lemaire’s show, Suzi, who was calm and at ease, once again surprised everyone with her unique temperament. She is not the kind of woman who has a thorough look at her appearance, but she is still obsessed with the appearance after shaping.

Naturally, when you are mature, you know how to be the most comfortable for yourself. On Suzi, this relaxed feeling is infinitely magnified, and you can feel a thing or two just through the photos of life shared by her INS.

A healthy wheat complexion, spots and flaws on both cheeks, gullies and wrinkles all over the track of years ….. If a face can read a sense of story, it is also based on frank acceptance and sincere telling of self.

After all, it is a pity and sadness if modern women are not supported by self-realization, courage to challenge, or choosing a life they like, but strive to be thin, beautiful and backward in a homogenized society, so that they lose themselves in order to look after the impressions of others.

The appearance of Suzi also makes people understand that those narrow boxes that sit on age, appearance and figure should not exist, but instead of eager for others to break the prejudice, Suzi wants to let herself take the first step.

Like Suzi, Neelam Ahooja, who wrote "The Row Collector" on her INS homepage, also became a monk in her fifties and "strayed into the fashion circle".

As we all know, nowadays, in addition to the fashion trend guided by luxury brands, upstart luxury brands such as The Row, Khaite, and Loro Piana are low-key but actually have a large number of fans.

Among them, The Row has attracted countless It Girls with its own aesthetic concept, from Rosie Huntington-Whiteley to Kendall Jenner who transformed The Row perfectly, and Zokravitz, who wears The Row in a unique style ………………………………………………………………………………………………………..

Neelam Ahooja, who comes from immigrant families in the Middle East, has worked as an accountant and a full-time housewife, but she is also the best spokesperson for The Row Style even though she is busy and fashionable.

Because she likes The Row Style, Neelam Ahooja shares her favorite items and matching methods every day, and her ins fans have gradually increased from 300 to nearly 130,000 now.

I have to say that it is a visual pleasure to watch Neelam Ahooja wear. Her style is extremely clean and refreshing, and the items on the upper body are well-tailored and clean.

At the same time, Neelam Ahooja’s good taste also attracted the attention of the fashion circle, and she began to appear in fashion magazines frequently. I was even invited by the brand to participate in The Row Fall/Winter Show 2022 held in Paris, sitting in the front row next to Kendall Jenner, and also met the Olsen sisters, the style guides in my heart.

Before meeting The Row, Neelam Ahooja’s dress was actually between bohemian style and neutral style, but after falling in love with The Row, which is elegant, simple and eternal, the dressing philosophy began to become more capable and mature.

Now, as a stylist, she has never blindly updated her wardrobe with the trend, and even often sells her unsuitable items at low prices, trying to build a timeless wardrobe with timeless items.

In addition to favorite brands, COS, La Collection and Studio Nicholson often appear in Neelam Ahooja’s choice. A blurred curly hair with minimalist Style has also become her most distinctive logo style.

However, Neelam Ahooja has never been obsessed with the brand, but she loves the spirit conveyed inside-"Minimalist, but beyond the trend; Luxurious and low-key, but still with a little avant-garde.. "

Finally, this mature and fashionable woman to be introduced, although her popularity is not high, her mysterious exotic customs and fashion sense beyond her age are still worth mentioning.

appear inLemaireBefore the show, thisFrom TunisiaSonia Ichti is just an unknown actor, holding the old film L’homme voilé in his hand.

And when she looked firm and approached indifferently with a flowing curly hair and a khaki trench coat, the aesthetic feeling that exudes experience was deeply rooted in people’s hearts in an instant, and the attitude of ignoring fashion was equally attractive.

In the interview, I learned that Sonia Ichti’s sister is a costume designer in the opera house, her aunt is a tailor, and her grandfather sells cloth. It can be said that she was born with an indelible relationship with fashion.

When she was young, Sonia Ichti also walked the show for XulyBT, and she had an extremely valuable friendship with designers such as Maud Perl.

However, Sonia Ichti’s life has never been just fashion. She went to the theater and worked in Dries Van Noten for thirteen years. Even lived as a ceramist in Brazil for 17 years, and worked with clay full of human remains for a long time.

Sonia Ichti, who loves travel culture, has always adhered to the belief of "treating herself as a child until she is 90 years old". Although it is inevitable to sigh and miss in life, she is still naive and curious about the unknown world.

When Sonia Ichti left the runway for a long time, she performed in a mature attitude again.LemaireAt that time, all the experienced stories and tasted emotions trickled from the corner of my eye to the clothes, making people wonder, if the posture of aging can be so chic, what is terrible about the passing of time and years?

Sonia Ichti’s dress in private is also very cool and capable. Those suits and long straight pants that fit casually will look decent and appropriate. It seems that at this age, people with rich fashion experience already know what suits them best.

Sonia Ichti, who regards designers yohji yamamoto and Martin Margiela as fashion leaders, not only plays the role of model, but also works as a fashion designer, and also tries to launch a clothing series that liberates the body regardless of size, so that she can move from the glamorous runway to real life.

Although we know that we shouldn’t worry about age, sometimes we still can’t learn to accept ourselves gently, and then we continue to suffer losses in our lives. These fashionable older women present us with another positive solution about beauty and clothing.

They also don’t need to put their names after the sense of atmosphere and relaxation, so that the prefixes will overlap more and more and pile up longer. They simply exist and then are seen, which is a kind of beauty.

The French style represented by Paris women not only provides inspiration for many people to dress, but also conveys the true meaning of fashion to the public. True fashion has never been grandstanding, nor is it deliberately playing the role of tenderness, but it is a simple and comfortable way of dressing, which transcends age and can show itself.

This can be seen in the street shooting of amateurs in Paris. No matter how tall, thin, old or young, amateurs in Paris will show their decent intellectual or chic casual side by wearing clothes. After watching the amateur street shooting in Paris, I understand: you don’t dress up as tender, you are the most advanced, everyone is the protagonist, let’s take a look!

Many people have a narrow definition of fashion, and think that fashion is exclusive to young people, or to beautiful women. Photographers aim at these excellent-looking young people. But in the eyes of Parisians, fashion has nothing to do with age, and women of any age can and need to care about what they wear.

Fashion in the eyes of amateurs in Paris belongs to anyone. No matter how old you are, tall or thin, you can pursue fashion, decorate your external image with clothes, and show a comfortable and exquisite attitude towards life.

Especially for the elderly, you can’t give up wearing. Dressing is more like an understatement for the elderly in Paris, and you don’t need to pursue it deliberately. Fashion is around every elderly in Paris.

Many people may feel that fashion is too far away from them because of their fat figure and short stature.

However, in the amateur street shooting in Paris, we can see that Paris fashion is a kind of fashion beyond age and exterior, and dressing has nothing to do with appearance and body shape.

Fashion is not on the top, and the pursuit of fashion is not to satisfy vanity. For Parisians, fashion is integrated into daily life, reflected in words and manners, and reflected in the collocation of clothes every day.

Showing fashion taste with clothes is a lifestyle that has long been accustomed to, and there is no need to flaunt yourself deliberately, let alone be tender!

The street shooting of amateurs in Paris has become the inspiration for many people to dress. They use their strength to prove that dressing without being tender is really advanced.

Parisian people pursue simplicity, casualness and chic in dressing, some of them follow their own inclinations, but they keep everything within a reasonable range.

They like to use simple and generous costumes to create a sense of everyday life, and they also like to use some suspenders, vests and suspenders to make themselves look more charming and lazy. The freedom of dressing has been best interpreted in Paris street shooting.

In summer, the general public might as well learn from these Parisian amateurs. For example, choose some tops and skirts that can show the lines of arms, collarbones and shoulders and necks, and enhance the lazy femininity by exposing the skin.

Or arrange a floral skirt that is fashionable, romantic and full of pastoral flavor to create a street style full of holiday style.

No matter what way a woman likes to dress, she should ensure that her clothes are neat and clean in summer.

It makes people feel clean and generous at a glance, and it is easier to enhance their personal temperament and wear a refreshing and fashionable effect. This can also be seen in French street shooting. Many Parisians dress simply, with white shirts with blue jeans, shirts with shorts or dresses with flat shoes.

Incorporating simple and fresh color matching, these street shooting styles look very gentle and attractive.

In order to keep the sense of simplicity, in addition to using light colors such as white and beige, the color matching should not be cumbersome, and the clothing matching should be simple and clear.

In order to achieve this, ordinary people should grasp the key points of advanced dressing, pursue simplicity and propriety, and stay away from complicated collocation.

The reason why street shooting in Paris has attracted much attention is not only because ordinary people in Paris can dress, but also because they pay attention to manners management and wear simple daily clothes confidently and generously.

It can be seen that amateurs in Paris, no matter how old they are, maintain good manners management and rarely stoop and pose indecent.

Everyone held their heads high and relaxed, and wore simple white shirts, white T-shirts, striped shirts and jeans out of fashion.

The above is all the content shared for you this time. As can be seen from the amateur street shooting in Paris, it is really advanced for women to dress without dressing tender. You can learn from these French street shooting, which is simple, comfortable and stylish!

China football, every China fan feels mixed feelings when he mentions it.

Whenever the World Cup season comes, the China men’s soccer team is always in a way"spectator" and "joke"As a participant, but not as a participant.

Then, why in today’s international arena, China, as old as football civilization,But always lost to Europe, America and even Japan, which is also East Asia?

What’s wrong with this?Do we really have no DNA to play football?
The Development Course of Football in China

In 1992, this year was of special significance to China football.Marketization reformIn this year, the curtain was opened, which marked an important step towards the professionalization of football in China.

This made the whole football system become different, and the professional league was established, which provided new career opportunities for players and coaches.This also directly prompted them to start.Get economic returns from clubs and markets.Football has thus gained unprecedented attention.

However, the development of everything has two sides; Although the market-oriented reform has brought new vitality to China football, it is also accompanied by problems.

Among them,The most obvious problem is that many young players choose to leave because they are dissatisfied with the conditions of provincial and municipal teams, which leads to a large number of brain drain.; More importantly, the original reform paid too much attention to the construction of professional leagues, butForget the importance of basic training.This makes the development of football in China appear obvious "fault".

This fault problem has been exposed in the early stage, but it has not been paid enough attention.

If the infrastructure of a league is not stable, then no matter how dazzling it is, it is difficult to go far;This may explain why in the late 1990s and early 2000s,Although China football had a brief glory, it quickly fell into a downturn.

But,In addition to the above-mentioned professionalization and marketization issues, is there anyOther factorsIs it affecting the development of football in China?

These factors can be discussed from three aspects: physical fitness, technology and genes:

First of all, there are indeed differences between Asians and Africans or Europeans in physical strength and flexibility; But this difference is not purely determined by genes, and eating habits and training methods also play an indispensable role.

howeverBased on this factor alone, we can’t come to the conclusion that "China people are not suitable for playing football";

Looking back at last year’s World Cup, Japan successfully defeated the powerful German team, which clearly proved that East Asian teams can also compete with the world’s top teams.

Furthermore, football is not just a "European and American" sport; It is global, and its technology, tactics and ideas are constantly evolving on a global scale.

Simply copying the football model in Europe and America cannot guarantee success, and each region has its own unique football culture and development route;Too much pursuit of integration with Europe and the United States, but ignoring local characteristics, often brings bad consequences.

reviewAlthough China tried to imitate European football in the early stage of its professionalization, its basic work was ignored.

A solid foundation is the key to the top league. In this respect, countries like Japan and South Korea have done quite well.

They started from the foundation and gradually built a perfect football development system, with clear planning and continuous investment from youth training to top leagues.

The rise of Japanese football is largely due to their solid youth training system;Large-scale competitions such as the All-Japan High School Football Championship involve about 100,000 student players. Every year, about 4,000 teams participate in the preliminaries, and 48 teams are finally selected to enter the finals.

This is not only a competition, but also a platform to show yourself and exercise your skills. The Gaoyuan Palace Cup Japan Football Association U18 League has created a more professional stage for the youth teams of various professional clubs.

South Korea, another strong team in East Asia, is famous for its excellent physical confrontation and physical fitness;In the international arena, they can often show excellent competitive state in the confrontation with strong European teams.

South Korean star Sun Xingyu’s Premier League performance is undoubtedly the best proof.He is not only a player, but also a representative of Korean football innovation youth training;

The sports park invested and built by Sun Xingyuan in South Korea represents the new direction of Korean football-"Sun Xiongzheng mode" (Sun Xiongzheng is Sun Xingyuan’s father and a former football player in South Korea), which pays more attention to technology and basic skills.

Compared with Japan and South Korea, although their football road is different from ours, their success provides us with valuable enlightenment; Both Japan’s youth training system and South Korea’s innovative ideas on player training are worthy of our in-depth study and thinking.

At the same time,Our national team, especially the women’s football team., also has a remarkable performance on the international stage.

Compared with the men’s soccer team, why can they show better elegance in the international arena?

From the perspective of professionalism,China women’s football team is on a global scale.Degree of professionalismMore prominent;

In many countries, many women football players are stillAmateur state,But in our country, most women football players areprofessionalismofThis provides them with rich training time and helps them to form an advantage in technology and tactics.

Furthermore,Women’s football has relatively little commercial value.Make the players focus more on the performance on the court, rather than being influenced by commercial factors.This pure attitude towards the gameUndoubtedly, it has created a more pure competition environment for women football players.

On the other hand, although the men’s football team has gone through the road of professionalization, there are many problems in the promotion of marketization;

The most critical problem is the neglect of basic work.This has led to a great loss of football talents. Compared with women’s football team’s obvious attitude of paying attention to technology and basic skills, men’s football team seems to be subject to more external interference in the process of marketization.

When we look back on every glory of China women’s football team, we can deeply feel the efforts behind them; And every ups and downs of the men’s soccer team is a wake-up call, suggesting that we need to reflect deeply.

In the future, we hope that both men’s football team and women’s football team should cherish every opportunity to play, go all out, create more bright spots, win glory for our country, and bring joy and pride to every fan.

21st century business herald reporter Yi Jiaying reports from Shanghai.

In the low tide, domestic beauty cosmetics are looking for new opportunities. Just last week, the first store under the Huaxizi Line officially opened in Hangzhou Xizi Lake. Prior to this, the brand mainly sold products and communicated with users through online channels such as Tmall, JD.COM, Tik Tok, etc., and has not been laid out offline. "In fact, we started to shop under the preparatory line the year before last, but there has been no suitable location." The person in charge of Huaxizi Oriental Aesthetics and Space Innovation Center said that for Huaxizi, if there is no good location, there will be no rush to open a store.

The expansion from online to offline, on the one hand, is the development space of fancy entities, on the other hand, it is also limited by the bottleneck of online traffic. According to the data of the total retail sales of consumer goods in June released by the National Bureau of Statistics, in the first half of 2022, the total retail sales of cosmetics nationwide was 190.5 billion yuan, down 2.5% year-on-year. This is the first decline in the total retail sales of cosmetics in the first half of the year in the past 10 years, and the growth rate is even lower than that in the same period in 2020.

Among them, the impact of the epidemic can not be ignored. According to the 2022 China Shoppers Report, the compound growth rate of cosmetics lacking the support of social needs has decreased by 16%, and the pace of new product sales has also been disrupted. Constant innovation has always been an important market strategy for domestic beauty brands.

An obvious phenomenon is that many brands have slowed down in the first half of this year. In an interview with 21st century business herald, the relevant person in charge of Juyi Group said, "The repeated epidemic this year has really affected us a lot, and the whole R&D, production and logistics have been affected to some extent. Many new products and new series of its brands, orange blossoms and fermented colors, have been forced to postpone listing. "

According to the performance report of Yixian E-commerce in the third quarter of 2022, the revenue in the third quarter was 858 million yuan, down by 36.1% year-on-year. The reason is still the decline in the income of makeup business. In the third quarter, the income of makeup business of Perfect Diary, Little Odin, Pink Bear and other brands was 570 million yuan, down by 48.8% year-on-year.

At the same time, the fluctuation of the live e-commerce industry has also brought uncertainty. In the past years, domestic beauty brands have mainly relied on online channels, especially live e-commerce. After the traffic turbulence brought by the super-head anchor that is enough to drive a brand and transform its influence, the brand is also rethinking live broadcast, traffic and brand.

Fluctuation of flow

This year, during Li Jiaqi’s absence for nearly three months, the sales of some domestic beauty brands also fluctuated greatly.

Looking back at that time, many domestic beauty brands concluded to the 21st century business herald reporter that the live broadcast room of the big anchor is addictive, but it should be used with caution. "Now I don’t think about the live broadcast room of the big anchor in daily life, but for new brands, super-head anchors such as Li Jiaqi are still excellent brand endorsements." Ou Ni (pseudonym), a staff member of a domestic beauty brand, said, "Every time a domestic brand pushes a new product, it is still needed. It is indeed a more certain channel for the new product to detonate."

During the Double Eleven last year, there were more than 1,300 kinds of domestic products in the live broadcast rooms in Li Jiaqi. In this year’s "All Girls’ offer" program, the proportion of domestic brands also exceeded 50%. In Ou Ni’s view, compared with the flow, we pay more attention to the deep creation of products of both parties. "In fact, before everything happened, Li Jiaqi accounted for less than 5% of the total sales channels. Our strategic adjustment has been deliberately tilted to self-broadcasting and Tik Tok channels, and Tik Tok’s stamina is worthy of attention and attention. "

Different from the reflection of domestic brands, international brands began to gather in Li Jiaqi live broadcast rooms. In the first quarter of this year, the growth rate of international beauty giants in China slowed down, and the growth of head brands was limited by weak consumption. Since the "June 18th Promotion" in the middle of the year, big names have been betting on Li Jiaqi, lowering their posture, showing unexpected discounts, and even giving discounts and formal clothes from the tooling.

In this regard, Tangyi said that makeup is an industry with a long chain and very high requirements for the completion of each link in the chain. Short-term price reduction promotion may bring some sales promotion, but it is an act of quenching thirst by drinking poison, which damages the image and positioning of the brand itself. Short-term promotion will not affect the whole market. "This year is the fifth year of the establishment of the Tangduo brand under the Tangyi Group, and the yeast color has also entered the third year of brand development. In the past few years, the whole group has continued to make profits, and has maintained double-digit annual sales growth, much faster than the growth rate of the market. In 2021, the GMV of orange blossoms was close to 1 billion, and the GMV of fermented color exceeded 500 million. "

In fact, reducing dependence on talent is a new way that all brands that have gone through detours are practicing. Some brands believe that it is not a good thing to be too closely bound to the platform.

The person in charge of a domestic beauty brand further pointed out that, more crucially, the label of live broadcast for a long time has been to emphasize the price, and everyone pays for the temporary cool impulse, which is meaningless for brand building and consumer loyalty. "We have more freedom to do self-broadcasting, and we can establish deeper communication with consumers."

Under the landing line

Corresponding to the fluctuation of online channels, domestic beauty brands are also actively going offline.

It is understood that the first store of Huaxizi not only has the function of beauty retail, but also includes customized experience, art exhibition and other services. "The choice of Hua Xizi has nothing to do with the cold and warm market." The person in charge of Huaxizi Hidden Garden explained that the biggest goal of opening a store is not to do business, but to present a more complete Huaxizi to users through this store. "So we choose a bigger storefront to create an artistic space for users."

At present, Hua Xizi has no clear plan for opening stores and other channels in the future, but said that the brand will continue to explore offline space for interaction with users.

Compared with the opening of Huaxizi’s big store, Tangduo started in pop-up shop at the earliest. In the spring of 2019, Tangduo made its first pop-up shop in shanghai new world, only 5 square meters. "Market feedback, media exposure and business output far exceeded our expectations. Pop-up shop has a long queue at the door every day and has become a popular punching place for Xiaohongshu. " The relevant person in charge of Tangduo said, "After that, we carefully selected core shopping malls such as Chengdu, Changsha, Wuhan, Nanjing and Guangzhou to make a tour of pop-up shop, and they all received very good responses."

It is precisely because of this that Orange Blossom has opened offline direct stores since September 2020. At present, it has opened nearly 20 direct stores in Shanghai, Chengdu, Chongqing, Hangzhou, Xi ‘an and other cities, and more cities will be laid out in the future.

21st century business herald reporter is concerned that these domestic offline beauty shops are not only the shelves of traditional cosmetics counters, but also deeply combine the psychological needs of young consumers, and incorporate photo punching points into the store design, which are easy to shoot and stroll, and are suitable for the punching needs of social platform communication.

There are more domestic beauty brands such as Colorkey, Leemember, Girlcult, Hold Live, Hedone, etc., and they choose to settle in the offline beauty collection store. According to incomplete statistics of the media, THE COLORIST colorist opened more than 300 direct stores in less than two years. Official website of WOW COLOUR shows that it will open 600 stores in 2020.

Not only are young new domestic beauty brands, but established brands such as Mao Geping pay more attention to offline. "Today, with the high penetration of the Internet, live e-commerce, short video marketing, online celebrity economy and private domain operation have changed the traditional sales model, but for brands, what is more important is the offline brand counters." Song Hongping, director and CEO of Mao Geping Cosmetics Co., Ltd., said in an interview with 21st century business herald, "Offline has always been a very core area for us to provide services to consumers. We regard product trials and face-to-face communication for consumers as precious opportunities, hoping to make consumers feel the brand temperature. "

Meet the local conditions

In addition to channel strategy, domestic brands’ pursuit of consumers is more manifested in product innovation.

"The vast majority of women in China often encounter thousands of colors when choosing makeup, and popular colors are not suitable for their own troubles. In the final analysis, it comes from the fact that many consumers don’t know what color they are, and they also have a little knowledge of the appropriate colors. " According to the person in charge of research and development of yeast color, yeast color has created a set of skin color analysis theory by analyzing the skin color of women in China, and developed matching products such as lips, eyes and air cushions for 18 women with different skin colors in China.

Besides skin color, Yeast Color also studied and analyzed the skin quality and facial contour characteristics of women in China, and launched targeted products. Hua Xizi, whose brand gene is Oriental Aesthetics, is also increasing research and development. Li Huiliang, the chief scientist, announced that he will invest 1 billion yuan in scientific research in the next five years, and Chinese herbal medicine is the key direction of product research and development in the future.

Although this is not a new phenomenon, China consumers’ preference for local brands has accelerated in recent years. The 2023 McKinsey China Consumer Report: The Age of Resilience points out that, surprisingly, national pride is not the only driving factor. Today’s domestic enterprises respond to the trend faster, get closer to consumers and invest more boldly. 49% of China consumers think that local brands are "better in quality" than foreign brands, while 23% of China consumers hold the opposite opinion. The survey involves 12 different product attributes, and the data results are roughly the same.

"The skin color and skin quality of people in the East and the West are very different. There are still some differences from the simple market research of big data and the cognition of data in some aspects. " Song Hongping said frankly that it is as important to get a sense of body sensation from one-on-one service as to get information from big data and market research.

Although the epidemic has brought a big impact to the beauty market, with the optimization and landing of epidemic prevention measures, people’s work and life will gradually recover, and consumption will rebound positively. It is not difficult to predict that in 2023, every brand is gearing up, and a new round of more intense market competition has arrived.

In recent years, there has been a wave of "purity" in the cosmetics industry, and "pure beauty" has become a strong force in the cosmetics segmentation track. Domestic pure beauty brands continue to explore new situations, and foreign pure beauty brands also usher in a new stage of development.

According to the data of "Analysis and Forecast of Pure Beauty Trend in 2021", the global pure beauty market will be $5.44 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach $11.56 billion in 2027. Among them, China market is the most promising and competitive gold track, accounting for 35% of the total market share. Take First Aid Beauty (hereinafter referred to as FAB Beauty) as an example. In 2018, Procter & Gamble Group acquired FAB Beauty. In 2020, it officially entered the China market and opened an online store. In September 2020, the Taobao trading index of FAB Beauty increased by 5,591.61%, and its sales exceeded 100 million yuan in just half a year. The development potential of China pure beauty market attracts many brands to lay out here.

The person in charge of Yiye brand said in an interview: "According to our long-term research and analysis of the big data industry report, it is found that young consumers are interested in streamlining skin care and plant skin care, and they also put forward more requirements for efficacy, safety, transparency and sustainability. This is also an important reason why Yiye has changed from a simple’ plant skin care’ brand to a’ pure beauty skin care’. "

L’OCCITANE

Foreign brands are also actively involved in the China market. Take L ‘Occitane Group as an example. Melvita, a French natural skin care brand owned by L ‘Occitane Group, entered the China market in 2015, and ELEMIS, a British luxury aging skin care brand, entered the China market in 2020. "L ‘Occitane Group will also introduce the Australian clean beauty brand Grown Alchemist in 2023, bringing pure, natural and safe and healthy skin care experience to China consumers." Queenie LIN, executive director of L ‘Occitane Group in China, said.

Looking at the development of pure beauty, at first pure beauty was just a concept, which was used to describe products that did not contain some synthetic ingredients with certain safety risks. After that, the concept of pure beauty was further expanded, requiring products to achieve skin care in a pure way and find the balance of skin. Based on this concept, a number of domestic and foreign brands and products have been born one after another. Foreign brands FAB Urgent Care Beauty, REN Skincare, domestic brands Yiye and MCL Flower Xikou are all representatives. According to statistics, in recent years, more than 30 domestic and foreign pure beauty brands have emerged, and there are more than 7,000 notes on "pure beauty" in Little Red Book.

The pure beauty market is booming for a while, but at the same time, there are some drawbacks, such as blank market supervision, vague concept definition and lack of user awareness. The market performance of brands is also uneven, and how to straighten out the development context of "pure" market in chaos is still a difficult problem in front of this track.

The definition and standard from "fighting separately" to "unified consensus" need to be clarified urgently.

Although pure beauty is not a newborn, it still lacks a unified definition and standard, which leads to loopholes in the industry development norms. At present, the pure beauty brands on the market are basically "in their own way" and are implemented according to their own standards. For example, L ‘Occitane’s understanding of pure beauty is "plant-based, symbiotic with nature", and green raw materials, green production and green packaging are its guidelines for creating "pure beauty".

FAB urgently protects beauty

FAB, a pioneer brand of pure skin care, adheres to five core standards, that is, all products do not contain ingredients harmful to skin and human health (there are 1300 such ingredients); Adhere to the principle of zero cruelty, and all products have no animal experiments; Sensitive muscles are available; Complete dermatologist allergy test; Do not use artificial flavors. In addition, FAB Emergency Beauty also teamed up with Sephora to open a special area to define pure skin care standards for Sephora. Only brands that exclude 54 potentially harmful ingredients to the skin can enter the special area.

Similarly, domestic brands are also exploring and formulating standards and norms. In 2019, Huaxikou formulated the "Five Principles of Clean Pure Skin Care", including true label, purity without additive, efficacy demonstration, advocating virtue for goodness, and being natural and organic, as its principles for developing products. In addition, Huaxikou also formulated the first list of 2000+Never List risk raw materials in China, banned more than 2,143 kinds of risk raw materials, and standardized the "six major risk component systems", exceeding the EU and domestic ban standards.

MCL huaxikou

In January of this year, Hua Xikou released the first Green Paper of Clean Beauty Pure Beauty in China, proposing a comprehensive interpretation and implementation measures for pure beauty. In July this year, Hua Xikou, as the first drafting unit of the group standard of pure beauty, and 14 research institutions jointly formulated the first domestic group standard of Clean Beauty and the standard of pure beauty of cosmetics, which were officially released and implemented in August. The group logo requires that the whole life cycle of products, that is, from raw materials, formula, design, packaging and production, should be fully implemented by adhering to the standard of "pure beauty" and put an end to "conceptual" and figurative products.

Coincidentally, in August this year, Yiye officially released the Technical Definition and Calculation Guide of Natural Ingredients in Cosmetics (hereinafter referred to as the group label), which promoted the domestic cosmetics industry to further explore natural and pure beauty by clarifying and quantifying the natural attributes of raw materials and products. While defining "natural ingredients" and "non-natural ingredients", the League Standard explains the concept of "natural derived ingredients" in detail and explains the calculation method of "natural source ratio". Among the 8,965 raw materials available for one leaf in China, the disputed raw materials in 4,421 are rejected, and the raw materials with high green natural index are preferred in the 4,544 all-green list to reduce the addition of artificial chemical components.

The person in charge of Yiye brand said that after defining nature, Yiye will promote the formulation of "General Rules for the Evaluation of Pure Personal Care Products" and "General Rules for the Evaluation of Green Personal Care Products" in conjunction with the Daily Chemical Association and experts in the industry. "Pure personal care" refers to cosmetics with "natural ingredients" and "naturally derived ingredients" as the main ingredients, which contain no safety controversial ingredients, and the products and raw materials are tested in line with animal welfare, with simple formula and environmentally friendly packaging. "Green personal care" refers to cosmetics whose production process meets the requirements of environmental protection, is harmless or less harmful to the ecological environment and human health, consumes less resources and energy, and has high quality.

The formulation of pure beauty standards is an important exploration for the development of the industry, which will promote the development of pure beauty industry in China. However, the formulation of standards is only the first step, and whether a consensus can be reached in the field of pure beauty, followed and implemented is the key to promoting the development of industry norms.

"Grasp both hands and be hard". Both safety and efficacy need to pass.

Pure beauty wants to win consumers, in addition to safety, efficacy is also the key. Xiao Su, the brand manager of Huaxikou, said that foreign consumers will pay more attention to safety, non-toxicity and environmental protection for "pure beauty", while domestic consumers will pay attention to the effectiveness of ingredients first, and then pay attention to the dimension of "safety". And "safety+effectiveness" cannot be separated from the support of scientific research strength.

For example, Huaxi Kou built a 1,600-mu peony planting base to create a traceable and verifiable raw material ecology. At the same time, we also pay attention to other local plants such as Luoshenhua and create exclusive raw materials for the brand. In addition, Hua Xikou cooperated with Peony Skin Care Science Research Center and Beijing Key Laboratory of Plant Resources Research and Development, and established Hua Xikou Innovation Research Institute of Chihuatun Chuangmei Center in conjunction with natural raw material supplier Givaudan. Developed a "biochip" technology platform and unique raw materials such as Luoshenhua acid and peony whole plant fermentation broth, and obtained national patents for self-developed components and plant extraction technology. The products such as Hua Xi Kou Luo Shen Hua series and Peony Flower series have achieved the effects of oil control, pore thinning, blackhead removal and light lines, anti-aging and so on through the actual measurement of human efficacy by SGS authoritative third parties.

A leaf

One leaf, which also focuses on oriental plants, is locked in Longnan Olive. In view of the unstable formula of Olive, one leaf has repeatedly adjusted the formula to solve the problems of greasy skin and poor skin-friendliness, and achieved the effect of being lipophilic, hydrophilic and refreshing. "Song Yang, vice president of Shangmei Group, and the R&D backbone team went deep into overseas to learn technology, set up their own research team overseas in seven years, set up their own factories, and constantly learn and improve their understanding of pure beauty and breakthroughs in scientific research." The person in charge of a leaf brand said.

Melvita, a brand of L ‘Occitane Group.

Foreign brands are also constantly exploring the "pure Dafa". For example, the star product of French natural brand Melvita, Moroccan nut kernel oil, is selected from unpolluted Moroccan nut forest and extracted by cold pressing. Water, chemical solvents, artificial flavors and pigments are not added in the whole pressing process. Its best-selling rose fragrance conditioning water is selected from Damascus roses produced in Iran. No pesticides are used in the planting process, and the fresh rose petals are distilled by "single distillation method" when making, and the roses are not extracted in advance to ensure that the flower water contains rich rejuvenation essence.

FAB, which focuses on clean and non-irritating formula, is dedicated to providing targeted skin care solutions for people with eczema, acne, redness, dryness and sensitive skin. Its core component, micron colloidal oats, was wet-ground in a specially researched low-temperature sterile environment, and the colloidal oats suspension with an average particle size of 11.84um was made. The particle size was only one-third of the pore size, which was far less than the 300 micron oat fine powder added in conventional skin care products, thus better achieving moisturizing, repairing and antioxidant effects.

For pure beauty brands, only by insisting on independent product innovation and attaching importance to the research of core ingredients in the skin care market can we truly achieve natural purity and effective beauty.

The combination of the new demand of consumers and the concept of sustainable development is the deep reason to help the development of pure beauty market in China. Yolanda, brand director of FAB Emergency Beauty, said in an interview that FAB Emergency Beauty is very optimistic about the development prospect of China pure skin care market. The policy support of the concept of sustainable development has greatly encouraged the development of pure beauty industry. At the same time, brands in the industry are actively exploring purity in raw materials and packaging, and consumers, especially young consumers, are increasingly aware of environmental protection and pure and streamlined skin care, which has become a helping factor for the development of pure skin care market.

The safety of products and its potential environmental impact are the core of pure beauty. Under the dual-carbon strategy and sustainable development strategy, "pure beauty" is a trend and an opportunity. Whether it can detonate the track and become a "dark horse" is worth looking forward to.

Parallel Intelligence and Metauniverse

Feiyue Wang

Metauniverse: Conceptual Research and System Conception is a useful work on the exploration of Metauniverse, which is very helpful to stimulate everyone’s imagination of Metauniverse, which is the origin and essence of Metauniverse.

Since the second half of 2020, people have been asking me about metauniverse, especially the relationship between metauniverse and parallel intelligence. When Zuckerberg announced that his social networking site "Facebook" had changed its name to "Meta" on the eve of Halloween last year, MetaUniverse suddenly became a worldwide hot word, followed by "Trick or Treat" ("Flying Pig" or "Cutting Leeks" again)? "Hope or Hype"? "What exactly is Metauniverse?" Wait for all kinds of questions. I believe this book will help to answer such questions.

I once said that the Meta of the Meta universe is the meta of Metaphysics. Therefore, the essence of Metauniverse is "metaphysics", and its actual function is to stimulate everyone’s imagination and innovation ability. Therefore, not everyone should have their own meta-universe, but everyone should have their own dream of the meta-universe of the Arabian Nights.

"The Metaphysical means the Tao, while the physical means the device" is China’s ancient philosophical thought, but today’s meta-universe, DAO of blockchain, and various "device-like" ideas and algorithms of intelligent technologies, from Wiener’s Cybernetics to Cyberspace, from AI to deep learning, and from shadow system to parallel intelligence, have transformed this philosophical thought into technical requirements and engineering systems, as shown in the figure.

Parallelism and Metauniverse: "TRUE" and "Daoism" Towards a Smart Society

Western Bible "New Testament"? The first sentence at the beginning of the Gospel of John is "In the beginning, there was a Tao, and the Tao was with God". The forty-two chapters of China’s classic Laozi’s Tao Te Ching begin with "Tao gives birth to one, one life to two, two lives to three, and three lives to all things". The combination of the two just "metaphysically" depicts the inevitable process of intelligent technology in the future: 1) Tao in the early days, and Yuan Yuan in the early days, is the "circular causality" theory that gave birth to Cybernetics. DAO of blockchain and Meta of meta-universe are integrated into technology through the idea of "TRUE DAO". Put forward specific requirements for the trustworthiness, reliability, usability, Effective/Efficient efficiency of "TRUE", as well as the level and function of "DAO" (distributed/all-centered, automatic/autonomous, organization/action); 2) Dao Sheng Yi is the specific natural system and problem that we must face; 3) Lifetime two is the boundary and "small data" that we must face at the beginning of solving problems; 4) Two students give birth to three, that is, our "big data" generated by experience, models, "experiments", especially "computational experiments"; 5) All things are all kinds of targeted "deep intelligence" extracted from big data by intelligent methods; 6) All these, from the organization and action of the process of "small data-big data-deep intelligence", are attributed to "yuan",It must have its correspondence in the "meta-universe", so that the virtual and the real are unified and interact in parallel. Therefore, the parallel intelligent method based on ACP (Artificial Society, Computational Experiment, Parallel Execution) is inevitable, which integrates robot, blockchain and intelligent technology, changes the means of production, production relations and productivity, and enters a new stage of human social development.

The essence of all this is to try to transform the Attention and credit that could not be commercialized in the past due to the Miller number of individual cognitive ability and Dunbar circle of social cognitive capacity into new products that can be mass-produced and circulated on a large scale. This is the reason and motivation for us to study Metauniverse. We believe that if the correct meta-universe model succeeds, it will revolutionize the category of economic commodities. At the same time, it can also greatly expand the ways to improve social benefits, and will certainly accelerate the process from the industrial age to the intellectual age.

Since the early 1980s, when the Monte Carlo method and Gaussian random field were used to study material defects, I had the honor to embark on the academic research of designing, analyzing, experimenting and verifying physical systems by means of calculation in Zhejiang University. In the early 1990s, the "shadow system" method of using models as data generators and visualization tools was proposed to NASA, which is today’s digital twin idea. At the beginning of this century, the philosopher of science Karl? Under the influence of Popper’s "Three Worlds" thought, the Academy of Sciences put forward "Parallel System" and its parallel intelligence, as well as the corresponding ACP method and CPSS (Cyber-Physical-Social Systems) concept. I have always hoped that these studies will give birth to a new industrial revolution, promote smart enterprises and smart products, and start with the smart home system that we can’t live without in our daily life. Therefore, at the first China Home Appliances Technology Conference held in Shanghai in 2000, I made a special trip back to China to make a conference report on home appliances, their interconnection and industrial revolution, and thought that the Internet would lead to the fourth industrial revolution, namely Industry 4.0, and OSGi would start the fifth industrial revolution, namely Industry 5.0. In the same year, in cooperation with Guangdong Kekelong Electric Appliance Group, Chinese Academy of Sciences and the University of Arizona, the international R&D center and startup company were set up. In 2000 and 2001, research and system development related to cloud computing and Internet of Things were carried out, and it was fortunate to publish the opening articles in parallel, ACP and CPSS fields. These experiences,Let me have different thoughts and understandings about digital twins and meta-universe, so I believe that the research and exploration shown in this book will further promote the development and application of intelligent technology.

Metauniverse was conceived in Cyberspace, born in the book Mirror World, and became famous by the novel Avalanche. In the west, due to its great influence in the early stage, it once attracted the attention of the notorious Uanibomer, causing bloody cases, and finally converging on today’s Web3 and blockchain intelligence. My hope is that in the East, through parallel intelligence, Metauniverse will evolve to Qian Xuesen’s "spirit realm" technology, with one less word in its name and by going up one flight of stairs in its connotation. In the end, the intelligent science and technology system, which is a trinity of "mirror, mirror and spiritual realm", has become a new science and technology that is not only more "Chinese", but also more human and better serves the good of mankind.

Remember that time Google showed off its ability of artificial intelligence by demonstrating the dialogue with Pluto and paper airplane? That’s driven by LaMDA, one of Google’s latest generation conversational artificial intelligence models. Now, Google is using LaMDA to build Wordcraft, a prototype writing tool that can help creative writers create new stories.

It turned out to be all kinds of surreal awkwardness, one of which described that eggs have leather texture, but I chose the option that they are the size of grapefruit and covered with fluff. (Eggs covered with feathers do not exist)

As you can see from the final product, the writing level of artificial intelligence can only be said to be quite basic, and there are many contradictions.

Wordcraft is obviously still in the experimental stage, but this prototype is very interesting to use. Even people who mainly want to see how ridiculous results can be obtained with a prompt deserve attention.
