The spy war is never over, the spy is around, and the Chinese version of ＂Mr. and Mrs. Smith＂ is so good at acting.

After "Undercover" and "Mask", Zhang Haidong’s third spy war drama "Opponent" came!

There are spoilers in this article.

one

The market in the old city of Xiazhou, the most mixed place, has many pickpockets committing crimes.

No, a pickpocket accidentally put his hand into the policeman’s trouser pocket, and it was too late for him to see the photo of the policeman. Li Tang (Guo Jingfei) chases quickly and ties the thief to a telephone pole.

Then Li Tang wore a police uniform and walked into a dirty rental house. Under Li Tang’s torture, Brother Hei admitted that Yaoji owed three million usurers, but he didn’t know the whereabouts of Yaoji. At the same time, Black Brother also noticed that Li Tang was not a policeman.

In fact, Li Tang is an overseas spy. He usually travels as a taxi driver, and when he finishes his task, he will disguise himself as a variety of roles.

Li Tang’s wife Ding Meixi (Tan Zhuo) is also an overseas spy and a teacher. Ding Meixi repeatedly used her body to lure people into the water in order to obtain information. The two men will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals, and as for the little secret between them, they will only see through it.

On the other hand, Duan Yingjiu (Yan Bingyan), a national security officer, is also looking for the spy Yaoji. By looking up the phone records and comparing the take-away orders, she has locked the most likely hiding place of Yaoji. However, the national security personnel were still late. After seeing Li Tang, Yao Ji committed suicide after saying his last words …

However, the investigation of Yaoji still didn’t stop. Duan Yingjiu began to arrange Ding Xiaohe, a newcomer to Guoan, and his party to collect the information that Yaoji might have left in the bank and analyze who Yaoji left the money to.

Ding Xiaohe is Ding Meixi’s younger brother. Ding Xiaohe announced that he had officially joined Guoan, and the couple were terrified. Ying Jiu had long been suspicious of the couple, which undoubtedly put them in deep danger.

It wasn’t long before Mr. and Mrs. Li Tang received the task of killing Bao Ping, a spy. They switched Bao Ping’s asthma medicine to spray to induce asthma, which led to Bao Ping’s death. The couple will try to explain to Ding Xiaohe why they bought a heart spray that the whole family can’t use. So Li Tang sacrificed his health and directed and performed a heart attack recurrence.

He and Ding Meixi also staged a divorce storm in which the husband found out that his wife had broken a whore, so as to divert the attention of the national security personnel, and a catch me if you can began.

A good script is the foundation, and the actor is the soul of the play. From the realistic "I am Yu Huanshui", the audience will feel Guo Jingfei’s control over the inner complex drama of the little people.

In this play, Guo Jingfei plays a spy who walks on the tip of a knife every day, and I don’t know when he dies. But at the same time, he is also an ordinary person, who will bend his back for five buckets of rice and worry about his daughter’s puppy love. When his wife didn’t come home late at night, Guo Jingfei was lying in bed counting condoms and found that one was missing. She was silent and lost in thought.

The wife found that her daughter always stole her cosmetics and counted condoms for fear that her daughter would have an accident. Clearly missing one, Guo Jingfei paused for a few seconds, eyes flashing, covering up the past. In this performance, Guo Jingfei vividly interprets the forbearance of a spy husband.

The reason why Guo Jingfei can show the fragility and powerlessness of the little people so vividly is that he devoted himself to the script study and really realized the sense of bringing in. The producer of "Opponent" said in an interview: "Guo Jingfei was deeply moved when he got the script. After watching 10 episodes, he couldn’t put it down and decided to participate. " It is not so much that Guo Jingfei is chosen in this play as that they have achieved each other.

Tan Zhuo is also highly compatible with the role of Ding Meixi. Ding Meixi is a glamorous female teacher, an unscrupulous female spy, and a wife and mother. For multiple identities, Tan Zhuo’s performance is very layered.

When she was blocked at home by Duan Ying-jiu, the other party kept asking her for soul torture, and Tan Zhuo ignited the female spy’s inner anxiety, habitually clasping her hands and fidgeting. I’m afraid that a spy with a good psychological quality will panic when encountering this kind of attack.

When her husband broke into the house with a belt to help clear the gap, Tan Zhuoming was relieved. He glanced at Duan Yingjiu timidly, but his heart was exulting. The detailed handling was too skillful.

It was the first time for several actors in the play to cooperate, but they entered the role faster than expected. The producer revealed: "This is due to the trust and tacit understanding they have established when they read the script around."

The content of Opponent is unrepeatable, mainly because the form of spy war is connected with life, involving many bridges that need to be kept secret.

This drama starts from the daily life of spies and national security personnel and reveals their unknown side. For ordinary people, watching a group of mysterious workers fight against each other is a different experience.

"Opponent" doesn’t have the high-tech and enviable work of others. What I feel is that the anti-espionage work is not easy, and the spies are not glamorous on the surface, but extremely dangerous.

The spy couple in the play are faced with the tempering of life. Ding Meixi was found by the school to make up lessons outside, and the bonus was deducted. The original economy was stretched, and she also strayed into the illegal fund-raising trap and lost all her money. Li Tang accidentally broke his tooth in the pursuit mission, and went to the hospital for treatment, but he was scared out by the high medical expenses. The handling of this comedy shows the fact that spies are "smarter than they are" and "being spies is not glamorous".

There is also a positive image of Duan Yingjiu, who sacrificed his life for his mission and responsibility. Not only did family conflicts continue and he could not lead a normal life, but even his body turned red. However, the drama does not use a lot of pen and ink to describe the emotional side, but presents the greatness and selflessness of the national security personnel through life scenes.

Wang Xiaoqiang, the screenwriter of "Opponent", said when he turned on the phone: "I put my views on the world, my emotional experience and my understanding of faith in this story over the years." Because of this, the play is more warm. And a work with temperature can make the audience resonate.

In today’s era of development and peace, anti-espionage work has always existed in various forms that we don’t know. An unconscious word, a casually discarded courier, may reveal secrets. Perhaps "the spy may be around you"-as the drama is broadcast, the context becomes clearer, and the dispute between the national security personnel and the spy becomes more intense. They will continue to compete for victory in the sun. We will wait and see!

Interview with Mary ｜ Don’t let me go on hot search.

It’s a different experience for Mary to play a female star as an actress in the comedy The Killer is Not Too Cold. She likes to be comfortable and eat some pot-stewed barbecue. She thinks Milan in the movie is too particular and tired. Returning to life itself is far more comfortable and comfortable than being exposed to the public eye.

Some netizens teased that Mary was an "iron heroine" and her partner actors were "flowing heroes". This time, Wei Xiang finally became the leading actor, and Mary became the green leaf. Although Mary thought it was "good to be a green leaf these years", four plays, Li Mao Dressing as a Prince, Northeast Tiger, Transcendence and The Killer is Not Too Cold, were released one after another, which was regarded by anyone as an achievement worthy of admiration by actors, and it was hard not to be concerned.

Mary said frankly that he was afraid of the audience’s disgust and dissatisfaction. Different voices will always affect her work. How to balance it? Mary has not found a perfect solution. When she meets a good work and can impress her role, she still wants to shoot. "While I am still young, I can still clap my hands, but I can’t move when I am 70 years old and 80 years old. The audience can’t see it if they want to see it. Let’s bother for a few more years."

Q

A

ICONSPRO: Milan, which you played in "This Killer is Not Too Cold", is a female star. What is the experience of a female star playing a female star? Will there be a sense of "separation" of identity?

Mary:I am going to play a female star as an actress. Life is completely different from Milan. I like to be comfortable, grounded, eat pot-stewed and barbecue in my life. I believe Milan should not be like this. (Xiaobian: Do you think this difference is interesting? ) I think she is too tired to live, and she is very particular about everything. She should be very particular about food, clothing, housing and transportation.

ICONSPRO: Some viewers think that the temperament of This Killer is not too cold and quiet is somewhat different from previous comedies, with some pathos and sublimation at the end. Do you agree?
Mary: Everyone has a different definition. You say it’s not a simple comedy. Maybe many people say that I think it’s just funny, and some people think that Wei Chenggong, the hero, has mapped many situations in his life. This is what happened on the set of an actor. All walks of life will encounter their own difficulties, and people will always encounter setbacks in their lives. Just like that crab, you make unremitting efforts, and you are not afraid of failure, so start over.

ICONSPRO: Did anything particularly touch you after reading this script?

Mary:The script itself didn’t touch me, but these people touched me, Yan Fei, the Great Devil, because (yes) our director of "goodbye mr. loser" was my Bole, an old friend of Brother Xiang for so many years.

ICONSPRO: "This Killer Is Not Too Cold" tells the story of cheating a walk-on. Did you ever get cheated when you first entered the business?

Mary:I’m lucky that I haven’t really played a walk-on like Wei Chenggong, with no words. After graduation, although I didn’t say many lines in drama, I still had roles and lines. But when it comes to being cheated, I have done an interview and said that I was cheated by a black intermediary. In other performances, I think I am very lucky.

ICONSPRO: What do you think people might get from reading this story besides getting happiness?

Mary:There are not many scenes in Milan, and some pre-history and feelings about this character have not been presented. If you want to say what kind of feeling the whole movie wants to convey to everyone, I think it is happiness, and the rest is another story. Pure is happiness.

ICONSPRO: Some viewers feel that Wei Xiang has finally become the leading actor. As an "iron heroine", do you have different feelings about working with these "flowing leading actors" Teng Ge, Allen and Chang Yuan?
Mary:Just like cooking, each of them is a kind of seasoning. They have Chili, aniseed, vinegar, salt and chicken essence, all of which have their own characteristics. Brother Xiang’s enthusiasm and seriousness particularly touched me, and it hasn’t changed for so many years.

ICONSPRO: This is the first time that I have tried a costume drama (Li Mao as a Prince) and a drama with exotic costumes (Killer). What fresh experiences do you think of these two?
Mary:From this sense of time, you have to turn yourself into an ancient costume, but I hope that in addition to this costume being an ancient person, the performance state and stories are close to our modern life, so that everyone can resonate. This is especially true in Milan. In fact, you said that the life of a star is beyond his understanding, and I can’t understand it. We are all colleagues, and we don’t know how a star lives, because every star’s life state is different, which may also be related to personal habits. Therefore, although the two of them say that their ages are different, their identities are different, and their occupations are different, I hope it is true in performance, and every emotion is the same.

ICONSPRO: Recently, there are four plays "Ba Ping", such as Li Mao Dressing as a Prince, Northeast Tiger, Transcendence and The Killer is Not Too Cold. What’s your feeling?

Mary:Afraid, really afraid, especially afraid that the audience will be disgusted, and others are particularly afraid that the audience will be dissatisfied. (Xiaobian: Do you think that I have appeared too much? ) right. I’m a person who doesn’t like to be seen in public, and I especially like to hide and wrap myself up, that is, don’t let me go on a hot search, and don’t let others see what Mary is like. What I want everyone to see is this role and this work. But as for Mary’s private life or personal part, I hope it will always be sealed and private. I think actors should completely separate work from life. When the exposure of your work is too high, there will be some other voices that will affect my work (Xiaobian: What do you mean by affecting work? ) I will be very anxious, and I will feel what I should do. I think I should shoot less. There are two kinds of voices. One is the audience. I especially hope to see the works. I hope you can shoot more. I said I had a second child two days ago, but many fans are still unhappy. Don’t, you should shoot more pictures of your body. This is a wave of voices. There is another sound that you should stop filming. Have you been kidnapped? Take a break. I’m tired of you, and it’s hard for me. If you don’t listen, sometimes you can really see it. If you see you, you really can’t take it to heart. If you don’t get angry, you should let nature take its course. When you meet a good work that can impress me, I still want to shoot it. While I am still young, I can still beat it. You can’t say that you can’t act in your seventies and eighties. There’s nothing you can do. The audience can’t see it if they want to. Give it a few more years.

ICONSPRO: The roles of these four works are quite different. Did you do any special design for a certain role when shooting?

Mary:I don’t like design. Every character I shoot is different. Although it is the shell of Mary and the image of Mary, I really do some preliminary work with great care and delicacy. Like the coach in Transcendence, which is being broadcast now, I like it very much. She broke a routine state. Is the coach’s severity, she has, but more of a feminine aura, gentle and warm, which I think is shining. When I saw this role, I felt it was shining. I want to thank the director for giving this role life and imagination.

ICONSPRO: The roles of Meiling in Northeast Tiger and Wu Qinghong in Beyond have been well received. Many viewers said that Mary used to be such a good actor in drama. Will he try more types in the future?

Mary:I have seen such comments, but I don’t want different voices to affect me. Like before, I have made some serious dramas, and there will be some voices saying that you still want to play comedies. When you made some comedies, he said, Mary, why do you always play comedies? Give me some serious dramas. At that time, if you find yourself really influenced by these voices, you lose yourself and you lose your direction. Although we serve the audience, we still have to rely on our own feelings professionally. A professional actor can’t be picky, but he should let nature take its course and seize the good role.

ICONSPRO: You just said that you can’t be choosy about a word. Are there any constant standards for taking a show now?

Mary:This is a contradiction, this is a two-way street, saying that you can’t be picky and be very elegant at the same time, and there will be many plays for me. This year, we really think these are not bad. I can’t guarantee the other parts. The part of my role is that our team has polished it carefully. Under our ability and authority, we can do our best, because we have no right to change other people’s plays, and I am not that kind of player. When I come, I will change the whole play, mainly me. Of course, the audience wants to see me, I am very grateful, but we also have empathy. I am willing to be a green leaf based on others. I think it is good to be a green leaf these years. (Xiaobian: Will making green leaves make you feel more comfortable? How to say it, it’s natural that you have no selfishness. I didn’t say how he plays more than me. I don’t have this concept. But now the audience will also want to say that Mary, I bought a ticket for you, and your play is so little. Are you lying to me a little? I’m embarrassed again, because the director has a comprehensive consideration in his mind in the early stage. I think you should do your job well, and I don’t like to fight for anything.

ICONSPRO: The Northeast presented by you and the actors in Mahua FunAge is optimistic, loquacious and funny. The Northeast presented in The Northeast Tiger is depressed and broken, and the Northeast presented in Beyond is simple, warm and powerful. As a northeast person, what do you think of the Northeast?

Mary:I am from the northeast, so my home in the northeast, you said, will be the warmest place and the most loving place. On the road, because I am an actor now, many people know me. Even if they don’t know me, it is most sincere to help each other. I think this enthusiasm and sincerity of the Northeast people is very touching and true.

ICONSPRO: What’s the favorite custom in Northeast China?
Mary:The whole family set off firecrackers to eat jiaozi. I think family reunion is what I miss most.

ICONSPRO: Will you invite relatives and friends to watch your own movies?

Mary:I will. After being an actor, it has become a habit now, that is, I still want to invite my relatives and friends to see a good movie.

The body of a 9-year-old girl who lost contact in Hangzhou was found wearing red clothes and white pants.

　　On July 4, Zhang Zixin, a 9-year-old girl from Chun ‘an County, Zhejiang Province, was taken away by the tenant and then lost contact.

　　On July 13th, Zhang Zixin’s suspected body was discovered. The Zhejiang Provincial Public Security Department issued a police report saying that the girl’s body found in Shipu sea area of Xiangshan County on the afternoon of 13th was confirmed to be Zhang Zixin, a lost girl in Chun ‘an County, Hangzhou.

　　The relevant situation is still under investigation.

　　Latest progress

　　Girl’s body found

　　Wear red clothes and white pants.

　　At about 12: 30 on July 13th, a corpse was found on the sea surface of Shipu, Xiangshan (121 degrees 59 minutes east longitude and 29 degrees 12 minutes north latitude). The body that was salvaged ashore, wearing clothes and physical features, was suspected to be a lost girl. Subsequently, Weibo, the official of Xiangshan County Public Security Bureau, announced that the girl’s body was salvaged and confirmed to be Zhang Zixin, a lost girl in Chun ‘an County, Hangzhou.

　　On the afternoon of the 13th, the reporter of Beiqing Daily learned from the insider that the girl’s body was found by a fishing boat, and the owner contacted the police, and the fishing boat took the body to the fishing port. The police waited on the shore and then took the body to the funeral home. It is understood that this is the fishing season in Ningbo, but fishing boats are allowed to go fishing in the sea. The fishing boat took advantage of the closed fishing season to receive sea fishermen, during which the remains were found and brought to Shipu Town, Xiangshan County.

　　The reason why it was not the remains found by the police and private rescue forces, the staff of local rescue organizations said that the main area they searched recently was the Guanri Pavilion in Songlan Mountain Scenic Area, the last missing place of the girl, and its nearby waters, while the Shipu sea area in Xiangshan is more than 30 kilometers away from here, which has exceeded the scope of the main search.

　　On the evening of 13th, the reporter of Beiqing Daily contacted Zhou Enlong, the boatman who found Zhang Zixin’s body. Zhou Enlong told reporters that his ship is engaged in sea travel. At about 12 noon on the 13th, when he took tourists out to sea, he found a child’s body floating about 10 meters away from the ship, and he immediately reported it to the local fishing police. Zhou Enlong introduced that the found body was wearing red clothes and white pants, not because the net had not worn clothes before. However, because the body is swollen, it is difficult to identify the face.

　　Incident

　　Two tenants took the 9-year-old girl.

　　The child disappeared after the seaside tour.

　　The tragedy happened in mid-June. Two Cantonese people came to Qingxi Village, Qiandaohu Town, Chun ‘an County, Hangzhou. The man’s surname was Liang and the woman’s surname was Xie. Local villagers reported that the two men lived in a hotel in the village and were playing nearby. Talking about Liang and Xie, the villagers only think that these two people are generous and like to show off their wealth.

　　Nine-year-old Zhang Zixin also has a good impression on these two tenants, because the other party often buys her food and play. "She is very attached to them," the villagers said. Zhang Zixin’s grandparents are selling fruit in the village. These two people come to buy some fruit almost every day. In the long run, the two sides become more and more familiar, so that Zhang Zixin was later lost by the two people. Grandma Zixin still can’t believe it. "They both look honest."

　　After living in a hotel for a period of time, Liang and Xie proposed that the hotel price was too high, and they wanted to rent it at Zhang Zixin’s grandparents’ home and give 500 yuan money every month. Feeling that the other person was nice, Grandma Zhang Zixin rented a house on the second floor of her home to the other person.

　　After staying for a few days, Liang Mouhua proposed to take Zhang Zixin to Shanghai for a wedding and let Zhang Zixin be flower girl. When Zhang Zixin’s grandparents told the news to his son Zhang Jun, who was still working in other places, he said he didn’t agree unless his grandfather went with him.

　　Liang and Xie repeatedly persuaded the two old people, saying that Zixin could go out to play during the summer vacation, and refused to go with her grandfather. On the morning of July 4th, 9-year-old Zhang Zixin left his home in Qiandao Lake with Liang Xie.

　　Zhang Jun told reporters that after his daughter was taken away, he immediately came to the other party’s phone and WeChat, and had contact with the other party on the 5 th and 6 th. At that time, Zhang Zixin also told his father that he had a good time and Zhang Jun’s hanging heart was gradually put down.

　　However, Zhang Jun did not expect that Liang and Xie did not take their daughters to Shanghai, but went south to Zhangzhou, Fujian. On the 4th, they arrived in Dongshan County of Zhangzhou and went to Maluan Bay in Dongshan. In a video sent by Liang Mouhua to Zhang Jun on the 5th, Zhang Zixin wore a white shirt, black trousers and a blue swimming ring to play on the beach. This beach is Maluan Bay.

　　On the 6th, three people left Zhangzhou. It is reported that they also went to Shantou, but in Liang Mouhua’s circle of friends, the positioning display is Wenzhou. What is certain is that on the evening of the 6th, three people checked into a hotel in downtown Ningbo.

　　The 7th was the last time the three men appeared. According to the network car driver who once took three people to visit the scenic spots, he took three people to three scenic spots near Xiangshan, Ningbo. "At that time, all three people were in good mood, much like a family." During the conversation, Liang Mouhua also showed off his wealth many times.

　　At 19: 18 pm on the 7th, the girl appeared in the surveillance screen for the last time. On the way from Songlanshan to Juexi Street in Xiangshan County, she was wearing the blue dress of Hanfu elements in the morning, holding a blue swimming ring, next to Xie Moufang carrying a bag of snacks. At 22: 20 that night, Liang and Xie appeared on the monitoring screen, but Zhang Zixin was not seen; At about 23: 01, Liang and Xie left by taxi at the intersection of East Gate of Juexi Street.

　　Looking for someone failed.

　　The child’s father called the police on the 8 th

　　Xiangshan dispatched more than 500 people.

　　On the evening of the 7th, Liang Mouhua didn’t send Zhang Zixin home as promised. When Zhang Jun contacted Liang Mouhua for the last time, the other party said that he was preparing to come back by high-speed train in Ningbo. Zhang Jun, who was in a hurry, reported the case to the local police early on the 8 th. At this time, he did not know that Liang Mouhua and Xie Moufang had committed suicide.

　　The police found that tenants Liang Mouhua and Xie Moufang committed suicide in Dongqian Lake, Ningbo, and Zhang Zixin’s whereabouts were still unknown. Zhang Jun, who heard the news, cried bitterly. He told reporters on the phone that he never thought such a thing would happen. When he contacted Liang Mouhua on the 7th, it was normal. "They agreed to send the children back on the evening of the 7th," Zhang Jun choked.

　　According to the last location of Zhang Zixin, the police locked her in the waters near Songshan Mountain in Xiangshan. More than 500 local police and civilian rescue teams started road and water rescue.

　　The search for several days was fruitless, and the search and rescue personnel kept expanding the scope of search and rescue, from five or six kilometers off the coastline, to 10 kilometers and then to 30 kilometers, hoping to find the whereabouts of Zhang Zixin. Captain Li of Xiangshan Wolf Rescue Team told the reporter that the rescue team has been repeatedly investigating the grass and bushes that have been investigated, and the scope of investigation is also expanding.

　　Zhang Jun has also been at the rescue site. He called his daughter’s name to the sea over and over again, hoping that she could hear her father’s voice.

　　Yesterday, after the news that the suspected child’s body was found came, Zi Xin’s uncle told the reporter of Beiqing Daily: "He (Zhang Jun) is shaking all over. We haven’t received a notice from the police confirming that (the remains) are Zixin, and we still have a glimmer of hope. "

　　Retrospection of the incident of Hangzhou girls being taken away.

　　June 29

　　Two tenants, Liang Mouhua and Xie Moufang, officially started renting the house of the girl grandparents.

　　On the evening of July 2,

　　The tenant said that she would take the girl to Shanghai to be a flower girl on July 4th and promised to bring her back on July 6th.

　　Early on July 4th.

　　The tenant took the girl out of Qingxi Village, Chun ‘an, Hangzhou.

　　At 16: 00 on July 4,

　　At 17: 23, three people appeared near the Gold Coast Hotel in Songlan Mountain Scenic Area, and the girl was holding a swimming ring.

　　At 19: 18, three people appeared near a construction site, which was the last time the girl appeared in the monitoring screen.

　　At 22: 20, the tenants appeared on the coastal highway in Xiangshan County, Ningbo, and they left by taxi soon after.

　　At 5 o’clock on July 8,

　　In the morning, the girl’s father called the police locally.

　　At 21: 00 on July 9

　　Ningbo Xiangshan public security began to search and rescue

　　On the evening of July 10th.

　　The girl citizen card was found near Guanri Pavilion in Xiangshan Songlanshan Tourism Resort.

　　At 12: 30 on July 13th.

　　The girl’s body was found in Shipu sea area.

　　News pursuit

　　Mysterious two tenants traveled more than 30 countries together.

　　On the 13th, it was suspected that Liang Mouhua’s social media account was exposed. On the short video account with the same name as WeChat, a total of 153 short videos were posted, almost all of which were about traveling all over the country.

　　The reporter of Beiqing Daily noticed that this account began to publish content in April this year. During this period, it has been to Dali, Kunming, Chongqing, Xi ‘an, Changsha, Hangzhou, Beijing and other countries for 30 times. Men visited major scenic spots and once appeared in the mirror, marveling at the beauty of the scenery.

　　A netizen named "Simple" once spent two days with Liang Mouhua and Xie Moufang in Lugu Lake, Yunnan. According to "Simplicity", Liang Mouhua and Xie Moufang claimed to be husband and wife. In the process of traveling with peers, Liang Mouhua showed off his wealth many times, saying that he sold Lamborghini by car at home and had real estate in Hong Kong and Shenzhen. After returning, he also sent a message to Simple that he wanted to buy a villa in Qiandao Lake.

　　"Simple" told the reporter of Beiqing Daily that Liang Mouhua often sent messages to himself after returning from Lugu Lake. On June 30th, Liang Mouhua sent a video in which Zhang Zixin also said hello to "simplicity". When "simple" asked whose child it was, Liang Mohua said "it’s a friend’s child".

　　On July 2, Liang Mouhua borrowed 3,000 yuan from "Simple" and said that his bank card was about to expire. After the failure, the contact between the two sides became less and less. Liang Mouhua’s account of "Safe Life" is suspected to be owned by Xie Moufang, including a collection of photos of Liang and Xie traveling in various places, which reads "I am most happy to travel with my husband".

　　The last status of "Safe Life" was released at 11: 58 on the 7th, located in the Great Wall Forest Park in Huang Xianhai. In the video, Zhang Zixin wearing a Hanfu dress appeared.

Second aunt looks at fashion： the CEO of Fulang Group is replaced; De Beers’ high-level reshuffle; Levi’s CEO will retire

21st century business herald reporter Gao Jianghong Intern You Yunqian Zhang Yizhen Beijing Report

Last week, many companies experienced major personnel changes. HanesBrands, the parent company of Champion, appointed a new chief marketing officer, and the senior management of Lanvin Group of Fulang Group and De Beers De Beers Group changed.

In terms of financial report, lululemon’s sales rose by 19% in the third quarter and lowered its annual performance guidance. The performance of British luxury watch retailer Watches of Switzerland did not increase in the first half of the fiscal year.

In terms of brand activities, Ralph Lauren will speed up the layout of the China market and open more than 30 stores every year; LVMH Group will sell a majority stake in the cruise retail business; Alibaba’s representative will withdraw from Farfetch’s board of directors; Amazon will drastically cut the fees of cheap clothing sellers; Balenciaga will set foot in the field of high-end jewelry for the first time; Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons will appear in Prada Shanghai exhibition; and PANTONE will announce the representative color of 2024.

1. lululemon’s sales rose by 19% in the third quarter, and its annual performance guidance was lowered.

Recently, Lululemon, a yoga sportswear brand, released its financial report for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023. In the first three quarters, the group’s sales increased by 20% to $6.414 billion. In the third quarter ended October 29th, lululemon’s sales increased by 19% year-on-year to US$ 2.2 billion, including 12% in North America, 49% in international business, 57% in overall gross profit margin and 2.6% in net profit to US$ 249 million.

For the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023, lululemon expects net revenue to be between $3.135 billion and $3.170 billion, an increase of about 13% to 14%, which is lower than analysts’ expectations. For fiscal year 2023, lululemon expects net revenue to be between $9.549 billion and $9.584 billion, an increase of about 18%.

However, due to the tightening of spending by consumers, lululemon expects sales in the holiday season to be lower than expected. At the same time as the financial report was released, the board of directors of the group approved an additional share repurchase plan of up to $1 billion.

Comments: The revenue guidance in the fourth quarter lags behind Wall Street’s expectations, which is a rare mistake for this retailer whose performance often exceeds investors’ expectations. However, lowering the performance guidance may also be to achieve "unexpected growth", which is their old routine.

2. Ralph Lauren will speed up the layout of the China market and will open more than 30 new stores every year.

Ralph Lauren will accelerate its development in China market in 2024 and realize long-term and sustainable growth and value creation. Cai Xinhui, CEO of the brand’s China market and Southeast Asia, revealed that Ralph Lauren plans to open more than 30 new stores in China every year in the next few years, which will spread to more smaller cities while occupying a place in major cities.

Comments: In the cold winter of the market, mid-range luxury brands are eager to find a new way out. Although Ralph Lauren has been synonymous with the style of "old money" on social media in the past two years, the market has never reached a consensus on whether Ralph Lauren is a luxury brand. It is a foregone conclusion that refined luxury style will return. As a representative brand of this style, Ralph Lauren’s popularity has been rising in recent two years, especially in the China market. In the little red book, there are more than 90,000 notes related to "old money style". Besides fashion, this style has even penetrated into more subdivided fields such as home decoration, wedding and manicure. Continuing to bet on the China market is a promising move for Ralph Lauren.

3. Watches of Switzerland, a British luxury watch retailer, has no growth in the first half of fiscal year.

In the six months to the end of October, the sales of Watches of Switzerland recorded a year-on-year flat record of 761 million pounds, and the adjusted EBITDA fell by 10% to 94 million pounds, and the operating profit plummeted by 16% to 78 million pounds. By region, income in Britain and Europe decreased by 4% to 433 million pounds, while income in the United States increased by 5% to 328 million pounds.

Comments: Earlier, it was reported that the waiting list of Rolex watches was shortening, and the number of people waiting for some watches was shortened from 10,000 to 8,000, partly due to the cooling of global luxury consumption and reduced market demand. On the other hand, the downturn in the cryptocurrency market has further weakened the demand for luxury watches. It is true that the luxury watch market is blocked.

4. LVMH Group sells a majority stake in the cruise retail business.

French luxury goods giant LVMH Group said on December 8th that it has signed an agreement to sell a majority stake in Cruiseline Holdings Co., the parent company of Starboard & On Board Cruise Services, to a group of investors led by Jim Gissy.

Jim Gissy is the executive vice president of Westgate Resorts, a Florida timeshare company. Starboard was founded in 1958 and is headquartered in Miami. By the end of 2022, Starboard had more than 700 duty-free retail outlets selling handbags, jewelry, watches and beauty products on about 82 holiday cruise ships of companies such as Carnival Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean and Holland America.

Comments: LVMH will remain an "important minority shareholder" of the new entity despite the sale of equity. LVMH said in a statement: "New investors are strategic partners in the field of holiday retail, with innovative culture and growth philosophy." Who can do it for you? Cruise ships are also an important part of the luxury industry, and the development prospects are still considerable.

5. Levi’s CEO will retire.

Levi’s recently announced that CEO Chip Bergh will retire on April 26th next year, and the current president Michelle Gass plans to succeed him as the new leader of the group on January 29th next year. During Chip Bergh’s 12-year tenure, Levi’s has gradually developed into one of the best clothing companies in the world, promoting brand performance to achieve breakthrough growth.

Comments: Bergh reshaped Levi’s brand image, maintained its brand characteristics in the ever-changing competitive landscape, did not blindly pursue the trend, and paid attention to brand marketing. The great hero is about to retire. At present, consumers are increasingly cautious. The prospect of jeans brands or manufacturers like Levi’s, whose income comes from wholesale channels, is full of uncertainty. Can Levi’s new CEO take on the heavy responsibility?

6. Champion parent company HanesBrands appoints a new chief marketing officer.

HanesBrands, the parent company of American Fashion Champion and the American underwear and sportswear manufacturer, announced the appointment of Richard Mcleod as the vice president and chief marketing officer of Champion. In this position, Richard Mcleod will be responsible for promoting Champion’s global brand strategy and omni-channel brand positioning.

It is reported that before joining Champion, Richard Mcleod worked for Canada Goose, a Canadian down coat brand, and served as senior vice president of Canada Goose, responsible for brand development, growth and performance. Previously, he held senior leadership positions in companies such as Foot Locker, LVMH’s Hennessy, Pernod Ricard and Bacardi, and led the marketing activities of well-known wine and spirits brands such as Grey Goose, Bombay Sapphire and D’usse Cognac.

Comments: HanesBrands Group announced its third-quarter financial report, showing that sales decreased by 9.5% year-on-year to $1.51 billion, gross profit margin was 31.1%, and operating profit plummeted by 53% to $66 million. Can the new coach effectively reduce losses and turn losses into profits?

7. The top management of Lanvin Group of Fulang Group has changed greatly.

LANVin Group (NYSE: Lanv), a global fashion and luxury goods group, announced on December 8 Joann Cheng Yun, chairman and CEO of the group, had submitted his resignation to the board of directors and would start a new business in the future.

The board of directors of the group announced the appointment of director Huang Zhen as the new chairman of the group and Eric Chan as the CEO of the group, effective from December 7.

Fulang Group said that the appointment of Chen Jianhao comes at an important moment for the Group to expand the retail market in North America, Europe, Asia and the Middle East around the next stage of its brand growth. Huang Zhen said that Chen Jianhao’s rich experience in the fields of real estate and consumption will provide great value for the next stage of the Group’s growth and expansion of global business.

Comments: Fulang Group has now developed into a global fashion luxury group listed on the NYSE, and has maintained a steady growth momentum in the past few years. The two generals have extraordinary strength. Can they continue to write a chapter?

8. Alibaba’s representative withdrew from Farfetch’s board of directors

China’s e-commerce giant Alibaba recently announced that its president and board member, J. Michael Evans, has resigned from Farfetch’s board of directors, with immediate effect. It is understood that J. Michael Evans has been the president of Alibaba Group since August 2015 and joined the board of directors when Alibaba became a shareholder in Farfetch in 2020.

Comments: Previously, Richemont Group, which is also a shareholder, said that it would not undertake any financial obligations to Farfetch and did not intend to provide loans or investments to Farfetch. Ali also made a statement now, and Farfetch’s prospects were not good. Judging from the global situation of consumers returning to offline consumption experience, the reduction of non-essential expenses and the overall slowdown of luxury goods industry this year, Farfetch’s sudden departure seems to be certain.

9. The demand for diamonds is sluggish, and the giant De Beers has reshuffled its top management.

De Beers, the world’s largest diamond supplier, announced on Monday that two senior executives, namely David Prager, executive vice president and chief brand officer, and Ryan Perry, executive vice president of strategy and innovation agency, will remain on the executive committee until a successor is found. David Prager and Ryan Perry will continue to serve on the Executive Committee and oversee the transition of their responsibilities to other members. Tom Johnson is appointed as the general counsel, with effect from January 1, 2024. He will join the Executive Committee and be responsible for supervising the company’s legal and secretariat functions.

Comments: A series of personnel changes are considered as necessary measures for De Beers to cope with the current global diamond industry crisis. According to media reports, the global demand for diamonds has dropped to the lowest level since the epidemic, because global economic challenges continue to affect people’s demand for luxury goods. However, what needs to be more vigilant is the impact of the laboratory cultivation diamond industry on natural diamonds.

10. Amazon slashed the fees of cheap clothing sellers to meet the challenges of Shein and Temu.

Amazon, an American e-commerce giant, is slashing the fees for clothing sellers with prices below $20. The transaction fees for clothing products with prices below $15 will be reduced to 5%, and those for clothing with prices between $15 and $20 will be reduced to 10%, compared with 17% in the past.

Lucas Barnes, a former Amazon executive, said, "This will make Amazon more competitive in the field of low-priced clothing, because a dollar or two can make a big difference."

Comments: Although the company did not explain why it did this, it is widely believed that this shows that Amazon is preparing to fight a price war with China’s cross-border e-commerce companies Shein and Temu.

11. Open up new maps! Balenciaga set foot in the field of high-end jewelry for the first time.

The French luxury brand BALENCIAGA and Jacob & Co cooperated to create the "Diamant" high-end jewelry series, which was unveiled at the fall fashion show in 2024. This is the first time that Balenciaga has set foot in the field of high-end jewelry. It is understood that the series is made of 18-carat white gold and diamonds, including a large and heavy necklace and bracelet, a text theme style called "Typo", including a thin necklace and an oversized two-finger ring, designed to spell the word BALENCIAGA in a handwritten font style, and each diamond is hand-inlaid. Balenciaga x Jacob & Co. series has been exclusively booked on Rodeo Drive immediately after the show, and each model is customized for individuals. The production and delivery cycle is 3 months.

Comments: Since Demna Gvasalia became the new design director of Balenciaga, a lot of popular global fashion products have emerged. With exaggerated design and high price, the new products have a strong topicality, which often explodes the Internet. It is precisely this controversy that makes Balenciaga have a high flow among luxury brands, and it has risen rapidly in the fashion circle, and the products have become a proper out-of-stock king. What new trend will it bring when it comes to high-end jewelry this time?

12. Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons appeared in Prada Shanghai Exhibition.

To celebrate the opening of Pradasphere II exhibition in Shanghai START Star Art Museum, Prada co-creative directors Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons, as well as a group of brand executives appeared at the event site. This exhibition is the second appearance after the Pradasphere exhibition was successfully held for the first time in 2014, and will be open to the public free of charge from December 7 to January 21, 2024. The exhibition traces the history of Prada since its founding in 1913, and exhibits more than 400 physical and digital works of art, including the collection of fashion archives and the achievements of cross-border cooperation with art, architecture, culture and sports for decades.

In addition, Prada CEO Gianfranco D’Attis said that the company’s goal is to double its business in China in the medium term. Prada will open more stores, launch more localized products and marketing activities in China market. This means that the corresponding investment will increase, including opening larger stores, launching more localized products and holding more marketing activities. He also revealed that Prada plans to take the hotel concept as part of its globalization strategy and may launch it in 2024-2025.

Comments: After the construction of "Prada Universe" is completed, it is not difficult to see its ambition of further becoming upstream. To achieve this goal, the China market is a key link.

13. PANTONE announces the representative color of 2024.

PANTONE, an international color authority, recently released the representative color of 2024, and named it "Peach Fuzz" after PANTONE 13-1023. This is a comfortable and warm peach color, which just blends the elements of pink and orange, showing a fresh, soft and emotional atmosphere.

Since 2000, PANTONE has made annual color forecasts, which are selected through in-depth trend forecasts and socio-economic conditions, lifestyles and political influences (such as fashion, entertainment and tourist destinations).

Comments: Looking back at the popular colors released by Pan Tong in recent years, Viva Magenta, Very Peri and Illuminating Yellow all represent high saturation. At present, the pressure of life and work is great, and the popular colors turn into softer tones, which seems to correspond to "harmony" and "recovery"”。
