Dialogue with Kung Fu Panda 3: How Hollywood Plays Chinese Style

    Special feature of 1905 film network Compared with many Hollywood film companies that have only recently begun to lay out the China market, DreamWorks animation is undoubtedly in the forefront. Relying on the power of "Meng Shen" Po, the Kung Fu Panda series has been a great success in China, and the first two episodes have successively won the box office champion of the inland film history animated film. The recognition of China fans gave DreamWorks great encouragement and confidence, and filmmakers from Hollywood began to explore and study the strange and distant China culture more seriously.

 

    The good foundation laid by the previous work has given DreamWorks the best opportunity to start in-depth cooperation with China. It is natural to establish Oriental DreamWorks and work together to create Kung Fu Panda 3. On January 29th, the film officially landed in the mainland cinema to meet the audience. What kind of cultural exploration has Kung Fu Panda 3 gone through from the Hollywood animation to the Sino-American co-production? To this end, we talked with Jennifer Yuh and Alessandro, directors of the film, Jeffrey Kasenberg, CEO of DreamWorks Animation, and Jack Black and kate hudson, who voiced the protagonists "Po" and "Meimei", and listened to them tell us their feelings about participating in the creation of Kung Fu Panda 3 from the perspective of Hollywood filmmakers.

 

Director: Creating Kung Fu Panda 3 has a stressful culture that depends on good story expression.

 

    Director Jennifer Yuh has made great contributions to the Kung Fu Panda series today. From participating in animation production to acting as a film director, she has obviously become the soul behind the role of Po and the whole story. During the creation of Kung Fu Panda 3, Jennifer also invited her former partner Alessandro to continue another adventure of Po with her.

 

    With the great success of Kung Fu Panda series in the world, Po and his friends are getting more and more attention and love from fans, which makes the two directors feel invisible pressure slowly. However, as the "people who know Po and Kung Fu Panda best" in the world, they still have unlimited imagination when creating. Through a deeper understanding of China, Jennifer and Alessandro also showed more elements of China culture to audiences all over the world in Kung Fu Panda 3.

 

    Many people have expressed their curiosity to them: As Hollywood filmmakers, how did you successfully integrate the eastern and western cultures into your works? Naturally, it took nearly 10 years for the Kung Fu Panda series to gradually mature. However, Jennifer and Alessandro always believe that in order for fans from different countries and regions to accept and understand the culture in the film, it is not necessary for the creator to forcibly add any elements or symbols. As long as the character and his experience are attractive enough, the audience will naturally find resonance with the film.

 

    1905 Movie Network: After so many years, is it easier or more challenging for you to create Kung Fu Panda now?

 

    Jennifer: It must be more difficult. Because the audience who like Kung Fu Panda series now have their own ideas about the characters, we must create more and more exciting and interesting stories to meet their expectations. It is natural for creators to feel some pressure.

 

    Alessandro: That’s it. Because at the beginning of the Kung Fu Panda project, all we need to consider is how to create a character like Po, but now he is a beloved character, so the creator must be more cautious and not act rashly to influence the character itself.

 

    1905 Movie Network: So now you will definitely have a deeper consideration when creating the whole story of Po and Kung Fu Panda.

 

    Alessandro: Yes, you can say that. In the first episode of Kung Fu Panda, Jennifer and I conceived the image of Po together, and then Jennifer finished Kung Fu Panda 2 as a director. This time, she invited me back to participate in the creation of Kung Fu Panda 3, precisely because we both know Po best.

 

    1905 Movie Network: Did you expect Kung Fu Panda to be very popular in China? Have you ever thought about the reason?

 

    Jennifer: I think Po played a big role in this. China audiences like the role of Po, not only because he will have many funny and pleasing performances in the film, but also because he brings a cultural resonance, which enables the cultural and historical elements in Kung Fu Panda to be better expressed. We try our best to make all the cultural details authentic in our creation. I think this is also the reason why China audiences have a sense of identity with Kung Fu Panda.

 

    1905 Movie Network: Will the success of the previous work make the creation of Kung Fu Panda 3 stressful this time?

 

    Alessandro: There will definitely be pressure, but compared with the previous two Kung Fu Panda movies, when all the lessons about China’s history and culture needed to be explored by ourselves, this time we finally found a local team in China as a partner. So we don’t have to worry about whether the content in our works is true enough, because our partners in China have already told us the exact answer, which has greatly helped us to further improve our works and make the Kung Fu Panda series even better.

 

    1905 Movie Network: You were also invited to visit the panda base in Sichuan. What influence did this have on your creation?

 

    Alessandro: She even hugged the panda herself!

 

    Jennifer: I hugged the baby panda myself, about this big. I must say it’s a great honor. The panda babies are really as cute as you think! However, in the process, I also paid attention to and felt their hair. In fact, it was not as soft as I thought, and it was a bit tied. In addition, I also observed their habits. They really love to sleep, and they like to roll around like balls. This visit brought us a lot of inspiration in the creation of Kung Fu Panda 3, which is why we added the role of panda baby in the film. Moreover, we also observed many aspects of their daily life and play, for example, they like to roll down the hillside. We added all these findings to the film.

 

    1905 Movie Network: Kung Fu Panda 3 has more elements of China traditional culture, such as Qi and Fairy World. Are these concepts easy for you to understand? How do you use these in your creation? )

 

    Jennifer: We really did a lot of homework and conducted a lot of research on history and culture with many professionals. It is also because Kung Fu Panda 3 is a real co-production film, and we have the opportunity to really talk face to face with the Qigong master and listen to him talk about what "Qi" and "Qigong" are and how one person steals this Qi from another. So these inspirations helped us conceive such a story, and finally the choice made by Po ensured that the story of Kung Fu Panda 3 would be unique and interesting. In addition, there are many details in the film that are based on the legend of "Fairyland" in China. For example, we specially went to Qingcheng Mountain, photographed every scene and used them in the scene of Panda Village. In this way, when the audience sees the Panda Village, they will naturally feel the feeling of being on cloud nine.

 

    Alessandro: Many people in China will ask me, the cultural concept in Kung Fu Panda 3 is unique to China. How can you understand it as a foreigner? But in fact, I think if you follow the characters into the story, in fact, these concepts become common. For example, the concept of "Qi" is not very easy to understand, but it is easy to be accepted if you use kung fu and show it by two characters fighting for each other. The China culture added in Kung Fu Panda 3 is not a simple and direct concept to the audience, but something unique to China is integrated into the story to explain it to the audience. Therefore, even foreign audiences can easily find resonance in the Kung Fu Panda series.

 

    1905 Movie Network: For example, Master Tortoise wrote the word "Qi" on the screen at the beginning of the movie. Can foreign audiences Get this point?

 

    Jennifer: Some points in the film are specially designed for the audience in China, and there are many connotations that only the audience in China can understand. But I believe these will make the film more interesting. For example, the word "Qi" seems to have written a beautiful and meaningful pattern for foreign audiences, and China audiences will recognize the meaning of the word after seeing it. A similar example is the resurrected zombie, which was inspired by China’s ink painting. For the audience in China, they can know what kind of history and culture it contains, while the foreign audience will find it really very oriental. So we can say that these contents are extra surprises for the audience in China.

 

    1905 Movie Network: Kung Fu Panda, as a Hollywood film, has been very successful in integrating Chinese and Western cultures. Do you have any experience to share?

 

    Alessandro: As I said before, all the elements in Kung Fu Panda are displayed with the characters’ every move. We try to avoid making a film that simply mixes Chinese and Western styles, but focus on shaping the characters. Kung Fu Panda is an experience and a journey for Po. Everything becomes very simple from his point of view, because the world he lives in in the film is a unique world that has integrated Chinese and western cultures, and what we need to show is Po’s living state.

 

    Jennifer: Besides, I think animated film is also a very unique art, because in the animated world, everything is possible, which can help the audience realize anything that is impossible in reality. For example, we have created a panda who can play kung fu, and animated film is a product of fantasy. For example, if we see the cultural elements with aesthetic feeling, we can join in our works, so that the audience can get in touch with some things that they can’t experience personally. I also think that animated films are a very good way to spread different cultures to audiences everywhere.

 

    1905 Movie Network: Many China animators find it difficult to tell a story that resonates all over the world. Do you have similar feelings in your creation?

 

    Jennifer: The process of creating Kung Fu Panda is very difficult. Every step is very difficult (laughs). But I think if you have a story clue that is suitable for everyone, such as the story about family and the story about family members helping each other succeed, then I believe that no matter where you go, everyone can understand the meaning you want to express. Or you can write a story about exploring and finding personal value and discussing the meaning of life, which is also a theme that everyone can understand. Then you add the elements needed for animation with these story clues as the core, and the audience will naturally be attracted to them. Maybe they don’t fully understand the unique time and space where the story is located, but they can understand what the characters want to express. Therefore, in fact, the setting of the story is only the setting, not the most important core. What the audience needs to see and understand is what the character itself wants to express.

 

    1905 Movie Network: There are many new characters in Kung Fu Panda 3. Will they play a greater role in future new stories?

 

    Alessandro: We have no plans for Kung fu panda 4 yet! Once again, we only focus on the creation of the previous trilogy, and we hope to make everyone very satisfied with the quality and effect of the work as much as possible. In the process, we were also inspired by many viewers. For example, after the first episode, someone asked: What kind of story is there between Po and his biological parents? So Jennifer designed a story to answer this question when she created the sequel. At the end, we also left a foreshadowing to tell everyone that Po is not the only panda left in the world. So fans began to guess again: Wow, so Po is going to find his real father, and will they meet again? In this way, the story of Kung Fu Panda 3 appeared again. Throughout the process, we just want to bring you a complete story and make fans happy. Maybe after this episode is released, everyone will put forward new ideas, and then we can see how to create stories to answer your doubts.

The average monthly loss is 100 million! Lantu is listed to raise 5 billion yuan, and traditional car companies open "equity for capital"

The new energy vehicle market continues to thrive, but Landmap’s performance is lackluster.

A few days ago, the Shanghai United Equity Exchange disclosed the information of the capital increase project of Lantu Automotive Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Lantu"). The content shows that before the capital increase, 89.66% of the equity of Lantu Automobile was held by Dongfeng Group, and the remaining 10.34% equity was held by employees. After the capital increase is completed, it is expected that Dongfeng Group will hold no less than 77% equity, strategic investors will hold no more than 15% equity, and the employee stock ownership platform will hold no less than 8% equity. It is understood that the proceeds raised by Lantu Automobile will be used for "technology research and development, digital system construction, capacity construction and marketing investment and other matters related to the main business operation and expansion of the capital increase party."

At the same time, Dongfeng Group disclosed the operating data of Landmap. The operating data shows that, In the first half of 2022, the operating income of Lantu Automobile was 883 million yuan, and the net loss was 738 million yuan. As of June 30, 2022, the total assets of Lantu Automobile were 7.413 billion yuan, and the total liabilities were 6.529 billion yuan.

Sales data show that in the first half of 2022, Lantu accumulated sales of 5676 vehicles, with an average monthly delivery of 946 new cars, and the annual sales target completion rate of 46,000 vehicles was only 13.5%. In contrast, Geely’s high-end new energy brand, JK, delivered a total of 19,010 new cars in the first half of 2022. In contrast, Lantu, which is also a high-end electric brand under traditional automobile companies, has a slightly dismal market performance.

Founded on June 26, 2021, Landmap has high hopes as the vanguard of Dongfeng Group’s impact on the high-end new energy market. Lu Fang, CEO of Landmap Automobile, once said: "Landmap is an important strategic layout for Dongfeng’s transformation and upgrading, carrying the dual mission of Dongfeng’s brand upward and exploring a new model of independent brand development."

At present, Landmap has two models on sale, namely SUV Landmap FREE and MPV Landmap Dreamer, of which Landmap FREE was officially launched in June 2021. According to the official data, Landmap FREE completed the delivery of 10,000 vehicles in only 205 days.

After entering 2022, the development of Lantu is also very unsmooth. According to the production and sales express released by Dongfeng Group, the cumulative sales of Lantu in January-August 2022 are 11100 units, of which 2429 units are sold in September. According to the sales target of 46,000 units expected to be set at the beginning of the year, 24.13% of the annual target has been completed; according to the sales target of 31,000 units adjusted in the middle of the year, 35.81% of the annual target has been completed, and the timeline of 2022 has passed 75%.

Compared with major competitors such as Ideal and AITO, Landmap’s positioning of the target consumer group is not clear, which results in a low user perception of its recognition and value, further affecting consumers, especially those with family car needs.

As a new high-end new energy brand, Lantu chose an extremely difficult route at the beginning. The price range of 30-400,000 yuan belongs to the high-end consumer market. In this price range, consumers considering fuel vehicles will mostly choose traditional luxury brands such as BBA, while consumers considering new energy vehicles may consider high-end new energy models such as Model Y, NIO ES6, and Ideal ONE.

Although LANTU FREE provides two power versions of pure electric and extended range, the factors that affect consumers’ car purchases are not only the product itself, but also the brand influence. In other words, although LANTU is positioned as a high-end new energy vehicle brand, the development of Dongfeng Automobile behind it is mediocre. Its passenger car brands, including Fengshen, Scenery, Fengxing, etc., are the main 100,000-level car market, while LANTU is at the 30-400,000 level, with huge differences before and after.

Wang Chuanfu, chairperson and president of BYD, once pointed out to "new players" who build cars: "Maybe losing 5 billion yuan is not much, but losing three years, how much is it worth? You can’t buy it with money."

On July 19, Lantu made the largest personnel adjustment since its establishment: Lantu CEO Lu Fang no longer served as the Chief Technology Officer (CTO), and the position was held by Wang Junjun, deputy director of the DONGFENG MOTOR CORPORATION Technology Center. In addition, Qin Jie served as the interim party committee member and party secretary of Lantu Automobile; Liu Mingjiao served as the interim party committee member, disciplinary committee member, and disciplinary committee secretary of Lantu Automobile; Gong Xuesong and Shao Mingfeng served as the assistant general manager of Lantu Automobile.

Of course, Dongfeng’s expectations for Lantu would not only depend on three to five years of development, nor would it require it to reach a new height in the industry in the short term. Perhaps, with Dongfeng Group, Lantu did not have much advantage, but the latter two like NIO and Ideal might have stronger strength. Therefore, how to make up for the shortcomings and take the long board and compact the competitiveness of the product may be what Lantu needs to study in depth next.

The importance of Landmap to Dongfeng was self-evident, representing Dongfeng’s expectation of attacking the independent high-end market. Behind the personnel adjustment, Dongfeng was dissatisfied with the current situation of Landmap, trying to inject new blood into the management team and open up a new development situation. As for whether Landmap could seize this opportunity, it might determine whether there would be a place for Dongfeng in the second-tier pattern of new forces in the future.

  Li Xiaogan, member of the Standing Committee of the Shenzhen Municipal Party Committee and Minister of Propaganda, said that in 2016, Shenzhen launched several measures to promote scientific and technological innovation, support enterprises to enhance competitiveness and promote the priority development of talents, and guided by three policies to further promote supply-side structural reform. The reform released strong momentum. In 2016, Shenzhen’s GDP exceeded 1.93 trillion yuan, an increase of about 9% year-on-year.

  In order to attract talents, Shenzhen implements the "Peacock Plan", which arranges 1 billion yuan per year to introduce overseas high-level innovative talent teams, with a maximum subsidy of 100 million yuan. A talent innovation and entrepreneurship fund with a total scale of 8 billion yuan is established to support talents to carry out research on cutting-edge technologies, original technologies, and disruptive technologies. For example, Royole Technology, founded by Liu Zihong’s team introduced through the "Peacock Plan", has successfully developed the world’s thinnest color flexible display screen, which is less than 1/5 the diameter of a hair strand. It has been among the "Unicorn Club" with a global valuation of over 1 billion US dollars for more than two years.

  At the same time, in the past five years, Shenzhen’s total social R & D investment has increased from 3.77% of GDP in 2012 to 4.1% in 2016, realizing the transformation of technological innovation from "follow-up" to "parallel-run" and "lead".

  Shenzhen has formulated the country’s first national innovative city master plan, taken the lead in issuing local regulations to promote scientific and technological innovation, and successively issued a series of policies such as "33" independent innovation, "1 + 10" documents for innovation-driven development, strategic emerging industries, and future industrial planning. It has comprehensively increased support for independent innovation from various aspects such as financial and financial support, talent support, innovation carrier construction, and the development of science and technology service industries, forming a policy chain covering the entire process of the independent innovation system.

Like it, it’s great! China has made a major breakthrough in the field of electric vehicles.

  Cctv newsThe 2022 Winter Olympic Games will be held in China, and the China government has once again made a promise of "Green Olympics". Around this goal, it is an important link to realize green transportation during the Olympic Games. On August 31st, Beijing Institute of Technology and other research teams released an achievement: the all-weather battery product was successfully developed, that is, the battery of electric vehicles can still work normally under all climatic conditions, including extreme low temperature.

  In the cold environment, electric vehicles will face challenges.

  After investigation, during the Beijing Winter Olympics, vehicles will face a low temperature of -20℃ to -30℃, and the use of new energy vehicles will face the following challenges ↓ ↓

  The charging and discharging characteristics of the power battery become worse!

  Battery capacity and life will also decay!

  These will lead to a significant decline in vehicle driving range and vehicle dynamic performance!

  Sun Fengchun, Director of the National Engineering Laboratory of Electric Vehicles of Beijing Institute of Technology and Chief Expert of the Expert Group of Beijing New Energy Vehicle Association:

  Now the electric vehicle (cruising range) has reached more than 300 kilometers, but it may only run for dozens of kilometers at MINUS 10℃.The farthest distance between the two venues of Beijing Winter Olympics, that is, the Chongli distance from Wukesong in Beijing to Zhangjiakou is 260 kilometers. How to last the electric vehicle at low temperature is a problem that must be solved.

  New technology, let electric vehicles break through the low temperature forbidden zone

  The team led by Professor Sun Fengchun developed the world’s first all-climate battery product by using the rapid thermal conductivity generated by metal heating inside the battery. The key technologies are as follows ↓ ↓

  A layer of nickel-platinum sheet was added to the existing lithium battery.

  Connect the power supply, and the battery can be heated quickly!

  Sun Fengchun:

  At MINUS 30℃, the temperature of our battery rises to above zero in twenty seconds, so it can work very well and has no influence on the life of the battery. This is the core technology. In other words, there is no forbidden area for electric vehicles, which is a milestone principle and technology in this respect.

  Low temperature environment, all the key technologies of new energy vehicles are overcome.

  In addition, key technologies such as vehicle system integration and control in low temperature environment have also made breakthroughs. The cooperative control technology of automatic driving and automatic charging has laid a solid foundation for the application of new energy vehicles during the Winter Olympics.

  Sun Fengchun:

  From the battery cell, battery system to the system integration of the whole vehicle, it should be said that the technology has been completely overcome.Our core key components are required according to the standard of low temperature of MINUS 45℃ to ensure that there will be no problems during the Winter Olympics.

  At the end of this year, all-weather electric vehicles will be launched.

  According to reports, the first batch of all-weather electric vehicles in the world will be released at the end of December this year, and then they will go to Mohe and other alpine regions for experiments at around MINUS 45 C. It is estimated that in 2020, the development of 11 product prototypes of four types of vehicles will be completed, and the demonstration operation will begin.

  Zhang Jihong, Deputy Director of Beijing Municipal Science and Technology Commission:

  We should further integrate some technologies from Beijing, China and even foreign countries to tackle key problems in Industry-University-Research. Whether it is low-temperature battery technology or driverless technology, a complete and comprehensive presentation can be obtained during the 2022 Winter Olympics.
