  editorial comment/note

  The 70-year history of the founding of New China contains a reading history of Chinese people. After 70 years, books in China have changed from "book shortage" to "book sea", and the type on paper records, leads and interacts with the times. In the book, there is also a history of ideological and cultural development. We inherit the tradition of literature and art and explore the possibility of science and technology. We climb the peak of our thoughts and sow the seeds for the education of the next generation. After 70 years, classic reading, theme reading, popular science reading, children’s reading … all kinds of books are increasingly rich and blooming, reflecting that the reading needs of Chinese people are becoming full and diverse. This issue of "Bright Reading" invites two experts to write two aspects of the 70-year reading history: popular science books and periodicals, with a view to reviewing history and looking forward to the future.

In 70 years, I fell in love with science from popular science

  The first edition of "100,000 Why" information pictures

  The history of popular science is as long as that of science and technology. Science in modern sense was first enlightened during the Renaissance in Europe, and was greatly promoted after the 17th century. The creation and publication of popular science emerged with the leap-forward development of science. The popular science works of a large number of representative writers such as Galileo, Buffon, Huxley, Fabres and Darwin have been popular for hundreds of years. At the same time, printing technology has greatly promoted the development and dissemination of science and technology and played a decisive role in promoting the industrial revolution.

  Popular science publishing has always been a barometer of popular science and an important part of national soft power of science and technology. Popular science is a bridge between science and technology and social life. While imparting knowledge to readers and making them fall in love with science, it also edifies readers with scientific thoughts, scientific spirit, scientific attitude and scientific style. Since the founding of New China 70 years ago, the older generation of scientific and technological workers, popular science writers and colleagues in the field of popular science publishing have presented hundreds of millions of readers with their hard work, which has laid a solid foundation for the development of popular science and left valuable spiritual wealth.

In 70 years, I fell in love with science from popular science

Manuscripts written by scientists such as Li Siguang and Zhu Kezhen for 100,000 Why.

  First, popular science work as a basic national policy

  In September, 1949, the first plenary session of China People’s Political Consultative Conference was held, and the meeting discussed the "Common Program" with the function of interim constitution. Zhu Kezhen, a famous meteorologist and educator, and other scientists took the lead in putting the popularization of scientific knowledge into the Common Program, and made it clear that "efforts should be made to develop natural science to serve the construction of industry, agriculture and national defense. Reward scientific discoveries and inventions and popularize scientific knowledge. " Taking science popularization as a basic national policy reflects the importance attached by the Party and the state to science and science popularization, and opens a new chapter in the cause of science popularization in new China. On November 1st, 1949, China Academy of Sciences and Science Popularization Bureau of the Ministry of Culture were established respectively by the State Council of the Central People’s Government. Natural scientists, engineers, agricultural workers, medical workers, teachers and young students were widely mobilized to make popular science work a mass work. The Science Popularization Newsletter and other publications were published by the Bureau of Popular Science, covering all aspects of popular science work, which became the main channel for the public to understand popular science work at that time, so as to promote the continuous development of the national popular science movement.

  In August 1950, the "All-China Association for Popularization of Science and Technology" was formally established, and then a large number of popular science books were edited and published, and speeches of scientific lectures and popular science charts were issued. Another important task of the Association is to promote the translation of a large number of popular science books in the Soviet Union, such as the Soviet Popular Science Series by the Commercial Press, the Soviet Youth Science Series by China Youth Publishing House, the Science Translation Series by Science Publishing House and the Soviet Encyclopedia series selected and translated by Higher Education Publishing House. China has also created many excellent popular science works, and a number of famous artists such as Gao Shiqi, Jia Zuzhang, Dong Chuncai and Gu Junzheng personally participated in the creation of popular science books. There are many first-class great scientists who write popular science, such as Liang Xi, Li Siguang, Zhu Kezhen, Mao Yisheng, Yan Jici, Lin Qiaozhi, Hua Luogeng, Qian Xuesen and Qian Sanqiang … Their works guide generations of young people to the forefront of science.

  In July 1956, under the advocacy of all walks of life, the Science Popularization Press was formally established, and a large number of popular science books were published in response to the production and life needs of the masses. For example, Professor Zhao Xuetian of Huazhong Institute of Technology, in order to solve the problem that a large number of new workers couldn’t read the drawings at that time, went deep into the factory to understand the demand, and then wrote the book "Mechanical Workers’ Quick Drawing" in an easy-to-understand creative way, which was reprinted 19 times in a row. By 1980, the book had been issued in 16 million copies, which played a huge role in the industrialization of new China.

  The wind of "Great Leap Forward" has also swept into the publishing position, and grandiose slogans such as "publishing a book is like publishing a newspaper" and "publishing a book in 48 hours" have been put forward. Although the number of books published has increased, some so-called inventions that have not been tested by practice and scientifically demonstrated have been edited and published as science, and some books have died when they were published, such as "Series of Experience in Indigenous Smelting" published by Jiangsu People’s Publishing House and "Experience of Workers and Peasants for Leaping Forward" published by Science Popularization Publishing House.

  After 1961, with the improvement of the national economy, popular science publishing also showed a certain recovery, and a number of high-quality knowledge popular science series were published, and popular science creation came to a climax again. Representative works include: Knowledge Series advocated by Hu Yuzhi, a writer and publisher, and written by famous scientists such as Zhu Kezhen; Mathematics Series compiled by mathematician Hua Luogeng and published by People’s Education Publishing House; Natural Science Series edited by scientist Mao Yisheng and published by Beijing People’s Publishing House; Scientists Talk about the 21st Century written by Li Siguang and other scientists; The Secret of Snake Island written by Wu Law; The Missing Brother written by Ye Zhishan. These books have been widely welcomed by readers, including young readers.

  The series "100,000 Why" has created a miracle in the history of popular science publishing in China. The first edition of "100,000 Why" was published by Shanghai People’s Publishing House in 1961-1962, with a total of 8 volumes, including physics, chemistry, astronomy, meteorology, agriculture, physiology and health, geology and minerals, animals and mathematics, with a total of 1,484 "Why" and a total of 1.05 million words. The second edition was published by Shanghai Children’s Publishing House in 1964-1965. Based on the first edition, the subject classification is more reasonable. According to the subject category, it is divided into 14 volumes, each with about 150~200 "why", with a total of 2480 questions. As soon as The Hundred Thousand Why was published, it was widely welcomed by the society. By April 1964 alone, 5.84 million copies (730,000 sets) had been published, which influenced the formation of a generation of young people’s scientific outlook in China, stimulated their love for science, and became a much-told story in the history of children’s popular science publishing in new China.

  Second, popular science publishing ushered in spring

  On March 18th, 1978, the National Science Conference was held. At the conference, Comrade Deng Xiaoping put forward some important conclusions, such as that science and technology are productive forces, intellectuals are part of the working class, and the key to the four modernizations is the modernization of science and technology. In the spring of science, the enthusiasm and creativity of the majority of scientific and technological workers have been fully released, and remarkable results have been achieved in promoting the publication of popular science. In April 1978, the State Council approved the official resumption of the National Association for Science and Technology, which laid a strong organizational guarantee for the development of popular science work.

  In 1978, China Association for Science and Technology held a national symposium on popular science creation in Shanghai. A group of famous scientists including Hua Luogeng, Mao Yisheng and Gao Shiqi attended the symposium and initiated the establishment of China Association for Popular Science Creation. Since 1979, a number of popular science organizations, such as China Popular Science Writers Association (later renamed China Popular Science Writers Association), have been established and actively carried out popular science work in their respective fields. Science associations, societies and scientific and technological workers at all levels actively carry out popular science creation. According to rough statistics, from 1979 to 1988, more than 20,000 popular science books were published nationwide.

  In October 1980, "China Institute of Popular Science Creation" (later renamed China Institute of Popular Science) was established, with Gao Shiqi, a famous popular science writer, as honorary director, systematically and deeply summarizing the practical experience of popular science creation in China. In April, 1982, the Institute of Popular Science held the "Conference on Popular Science Creation and Research Plan" in Beidaihe. At the meeting, it was decided to compile a set of "Selected Works of Popular Science", which was completed successively in 1993, with a total of 10 books.

  Around the 1990s, influenced by various social trends of thought, the creation and publication of popular science received a cold reception after 10 years of prosperity, and the position of popular science was shrinking day by day, almost becoming a forgotten corner. In the meantime, pseudoscience has also risen, and some pseudoscience publications such as astrology and parapsychology, which promote all kinds of supernatural and metamaterial mysterious forces under the banner of science, have been increasing continuously. The proliferation of these superstitions and pseudoscience has caused a waste of national resources and a very bad influence on the general public.

  In view of the social phenomenon of the spread of ignorance and superstition in society, on December 5, 1994, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council issued "Several Opinions on Strengthening the Popularization of Science and Technology". This is the first programmatic document jointly issued by the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on science popularization since the founding of New China. It is an important symbol for the Party and the government to promote the development of science popularization in the new period, which is of milestone significance. On June 20, 1995, China Association for Science and Technology invited all parties concerned to have a discussion, which was presided over by the special committee of China Association for Science and Technology to promote the natural and social sciences, and put forward the initiative of "defending the dignity of science, getting rid of ignorance and superstition, and opposing pseudoscience". He has also organized the translation of Science and Weirdness, co-authored by many famous foreign scientists, and edited popular science books such as 100 Questions on Breaking Superstition, explaining the fact that there are neither gods nor ghosts in the world with scientific reasons, exposing all kinds of deceptive schemes, and improving readers’ ability to distinguish between science and pseudoscience, superstition and natural phenomena.

  At the same time, a number of domestic publishing houses have introduced and translated a number of high-level popular science publications from abroad, such as the "First Promotion Series" published by Hunan Science and Technology Publishing House, which is a masterpiece of popular science written by contemporary world-class scientists and is called "the spiritual home of science lovers". Shanghai Science and Technology Education Publishing House, on the basis of many years’ full investigation on the publishing situation of popular science at home and abroad, has carefully planned the series of "philosopher’s stone series" in response to the readers’ thirst for popular science products with strong sense of the times and deep appeal, and has become a large-scale popular science brand with far-reaching influence.

  Third, the overall improvement of national scientific quality

  On June 29th, 2002, People’s Republic of China (PRC) Science and Technology Popularization Law was promulgated, which is the first science popularization law in the world so far. On February 6, 2006, the State Council formulated and implemented the Outline of the Action Plan for National Scientific Literacy (2006-2010-2020), and put forward the principles, objectives, tasks and measures for the construction of Chinese citizens’ scientific literacy in the next 15 years. It is clear that improving citizens’ scientific quality is a major strategic task of the country; It sets the tasks and objectives of China citizens’ scientific quality construction in the short-term, medium-term and long-term stages. This means that, as a long-term task, the construction of scientific quality of the whole people will benefit the whole country.

  Known as the "cross-century popular science publishing project", the "Academician Popular Science Book Department" is a large-scale popular science series jointly planned by China Academy of Sciences, China Academy of Engineering and Science Times, and jointly published by Tsinghua University Press and Jinan University Press. About 176 academicians of the two academies participated in the writing. The topic selection of book department is the frontier of world science and the hot issue of China’s economic and social development, such as 100 scientific problems in the 21st century, industry trend in the 21st century, magical surface engineering, flying metal-light metal and so on.

  In order to cooperate with the national action plan for national scientific literacy, Science Popularization Publishing House, with the strong support of China Association for Science and Technology, started to plan the large-scale popular science topic selection of "Outline Book Series of the Action Plan for National Scientific Literacy" in 2006. Combining the introduction of excellent foreign popular science works with the development of excellent original works, it has successively developed dozens of sets of high-quality popular science books, and equipped a batch of high-quality popular science resources for libraries and farmer’s bookstores at all levels. The Chinese Association of Popular Science Writers organized and planned major selected topics such as "China Contemporary Popular Science Boutique Book Series", which greatly improved the publishing level of original popular science books in China. According to a survey conducted in 2015, there are about 200 publishing houses publishing popular science books every year in China, and the average number of new books published has exceeded 10,000. A number of important awards such as the National Science and Technology Progress Award include popular science categories.

  On May 30, 2016, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader delivered an important speech at the National Science and Technology Innovation Conference, the Academician Conference of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Ninth National Congress of China Association for Science and Technology. It is emphasized that scientific and technological innovation and scientific popularization are the two wings to realize innovation and development, and scientific popularization should be placed in the same important position as scientific and technological innovation. It gives a brand-new orientation and requirements for popular science work in China in the new era. Facing the rapidly changing international environment, popular science work has long been not limited to the popularization of general scientific and technological knowledge, but more reflected in the overall improvement of national scientific quality. Without the general improvement of the scientific quality of the whole people, it will be difficult to establish a grand army of high-quality innovation and realize the rapid transformation of scientific and technological achievements.

  In recent years, with the great attention and investment of the state, the scientific quality level of Chinese citizens has entered a stage of rapid improvement. Previous national surveys conducted by China Institute of Popular Science show that the proportion of citizens with scientific literacy in China has increased from 3.27% in 2010 to 6.20% in 2015 and further to 8.47% in 2018. Faced with the rapid development of science and technology and the huge demand of the general public for high-quality popular science resources, the traditional popular science model can no longer adapt to the changes of the new era. Popular science publishing needs to better connect with the international community, adapt to the development law of mobile reading, online reading and audio reading, and promote the deep integration and transformation of the industry. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the theoretical research and practical exploration of popular science creation, because no matter how the times develop, "content is king" is always the first meaning of popular science publishing.

  Guangming Daily (October 4, 2019, 08 edition)

Zhangqiu District "580" domestic waste recycling station promotes the implementation of waste classification and builds a green civilization in the city.

  In recent years, Zhangqiu District of Jinan City has made remarkable achievements in promoting the classification and resource utilization of domestic waste with pragmatic measures and innovative path system, especially in the recycling of recyclable materials. By introducing private capital and cultivating small and micro enterprises, the garbage recycling path has been implanted into the urban operation texture, and the concept of garbage classification has been rooted in the habit of citizens. The "580" domestic waste recycling station in this district is one of the outstanding representatives of enterprises.

  Recently, the "Promotion of Self-help Recycling Equipment for Waste Products" was held in Xishuitai Community, Shuang Shan Street. Residents of the community lined up with recyclable materials such as cardboard boxes and plastic bottles, and came to experience the "intelligent recycling machine for waste products". "Scan code login, self-service weighing, complete recycling, pay fees, print small tickets, self-service recycling is really convenient, you can complete the delivery without leaving the community, you can also earn two pocket money, and you can also catch up with the fashion of garbage sorting." The people at the scene said.

  Through the self-developed "waste intelligent recycling machine" to collect waste, the citizens can immediately feel the economic benefits of waste sorting output, which effectively enhances the enthusiasm of citizens to take the initiative to sort. At present, the registered number of permanent residents in this community has exceeded 40%. This recycling method has been put into other residential areas one after another.

  In order to improve the recycling network of recyclable materials, the "580" domestic waste recycling station has made great efforts. In addition to self-recycling through the "waste intelligent recycling machine", the company has built five recycling stations in Zhangqiu main city with a radius of 1.5 kilometers, established a full-time recycling team, and adopted various methods such as fixed-point recycling, fixed-point door-to-door recycling, and telephone+WeChat appointment recycling to maximize the convenience for merchants and citizens to sell recyclable materials. The garbage recycling path is really implanted into the urban operation texture, which makes it a reality to sell recyclables without leaving home, and effectively realizes the win-win benefits of enterprises, citizens’ economic benefits and garbage sorting services.

  In addition, in order to expand the publicity effect of garbage classification, under the guidance of Zhangqiu District Urban Management Bureau and Classification Office, the "Science Museum of Garbage Classification Recyclable Materials" invested by the enterprise for more than 300,000 yuan has been completed and put into use, and it is open to the public free of charge. At the same time, a publicity team for domestic waste classification was set up in conjunction with the classification office, streets and communities in the district, with students as the main publicity group, and teachers and students were invited to visit the campus in Zhangzhang to carry out the theme publicity of domestic waste classification, which further strengthened the construction of publicity positions for domestic waste classification in the district.

  "Rooted in the recycling of domestic waste classification recyclables for five years, with the support of relevant departments and streets, the enterprise has begun to take shape, from the initial one car to the first recycling station, and then to the recycling enterprise with the widest collection network in Zhangqiu District, which has driven more than 30 people to achieve employment and income increase. We are full of confidence in demanding output value and benefits from garbage and making greater contributions to the domestic waste classification in the whole region. " Zhang Guangrui, the person in charge of the company, said.

  The small recycling station has multiple functions, such as youth entrepreneurship platform, education and publicity base, and the front position of garbage sorting, and has achieved a win-win situation in the promotion of domestic garbage sorting in this area. (correspondent Meng Fangeng)

Longyou "Government Affairs 110" stimulates the effectiveness of grassroots governance.

"The villagers reported that the drainage facilities of a project under construction in Shuanglian New Village of Tashi Town are not up to standard, which may affect the farmland of nearby villages." A few days ago, after receiving this push from the "information collection module", the comprehensive information command room of Tashi Town, Longyou County assigned the task to the town agricultural office for the first time. Within 10 minutes, the police station, the town and village cadres and the project supervisor rushed to the scene. After verification, they issued a rectification notice to the construction unit and urged the rectification within a time limit. The villagers exclaimed that "this work efficiency is too high".

Different from the past when public security organs sent police alone, such a multi-span linkage model has matured in Tashi Town since its implementation in May this year.

Longyou County Public Security Bureau, as one of the pilot projects of "Public Security Brain" construction of county (city) public security organs in the province, took the lead in building the "Government Edition 110" platform. Qian Wang, director of Tashi Police Station, introduced that in order to help the towns and villages in the jurisdiction to build a flat and efficient command system, the "Government Affairs 110" collected all online and offline information channels according to the principle of due diligence, including 110 alarm platform, four platforms for grassroots governance, 12345 convenience service hotline, social emergency linkage platform, village community grid, etc. Through the establishment of a series of assessment mechanisms, the whole cycle closed-loop management of grassroots governance matters was realized. This is not only a bold attempt by Longyou police to bravely break into "no man’s land", but also a vivid practice of digital reform to promote rural governance and realize "wisdom transformation".

After the system runs, how to achieve "everything is handled by someone and everything has to be implemented"? Zhang Xiaolu, a local township cadre on duty who is responsible for the task of "dispatching orders", said that according to the difficulty, urgency and scope of co-sponsorship, the comprehensive information command room combed and formed a set of task assignment templates such as "daily list, group co-sponsorship list and monthly supervision list", and realized the flat dispatching order acceptance through the Zhejiang government nail task signing and handling system. In August this year, the integrated command platform in Tashi Town received 396 cases, and the response rate of platform events in five minutes reached 100%, and the single-day settlement rate of events increased from 54.02% to 96.53%.

In order to improve the "early warning" sensitivity of joint disposal of risks and hidden dangers, Longyou County Public Security Bureau has also jointly built a "blue vest" home with Tashi Town. Xia Guojin is a veteran. As a full-time patrol information officer, he is stationed in the "Blue vest" home. Xia Guojin said that in the past, there were hidden disputes in the village and the lead department could not be found. The villagers all called 110 for help.

Now we just need to report it on the mobile phone through the "Zhejiang government nail", and all the information goes directly to the comprehensive information command room. In a few minutes, the relevant functional departments will come to solve the problem, which is very convenient for the villagers.

"The’ Government Affairs 110′ has effectively promoted the implementation of’ one thing for grassroots governance’ at the town and village level, changed the previous mode of step-by-step assignment and bottom-level implementation, realized cross-departmental, cross-level and cross-administrative village joint operation, and worked together to solve the difficult problems of people’s livelihood, forming a new governance pattern of’ party and government leading, public security first, departmental coordination and digital empowerment’." Yu Jianfei, deputy director of the Longyou County Public Security Bureau, said.

The Longyou County Public Security Bureau will comprehensively deepen the construction of "police integration" around the "141" grass-roots governance system, accelerate the reform of "comprehensive integration" of administrative law enforcement, iteratively upgrade the "four platforms for grass-roots governance", systematically shape the "three integration" system with "integration of command" as the core and "integration of governance and service" as the wings, and reshape the new pattern of rural governance. Through the implementation of the "one network, one center" standard promotion project, the "two representatives and one member" deliberation and consultation meeting, the township xian Council, the old summer mediation room and other platforms, the "base" role of the grid in grassroots governance will be consolidated to ensure that "small things will not leave the village and contradictions will not be handed over".

The explosive eruption of Kilaway volcano in Hawaii urged residents to escape as soon as possible.

  BEIJING, May 18 (Xinhua)-According to a comprehensive report, Kilauea)17 volcano in Hawaii erupted explosively on the 17th, and the volcanic ash cloud reached more than 9,100 meters and went straight into the sky. The authorities said that residents of the Big Island had been warned to find a safe place to escape because the volcanic ash cloud affected a large area.

  The Hawaii County Civil Defence Bureau issued a telephone warning: "The Hawaii Volcano Observatory informed that an explosive eruption occurred at the top of Kilauea volcano, and the volcanic ash cloud would cover the surrounding area. If you are in an area affected by volcanic ash clouds, please look for shelter. "

  Kilaway volcano is one of the most active volcanoes in the world, and it has been erupting from time to time in the past 35 years. However, this eruption, which started on the 3rd of this month, is quite different and more violent than before. The US Geological Survey issued a red warning on the 15th to remind the public that volcanoes may erupt on a large scale, and volcanic ash may be ejected in large quantities. Text source: Xinhuanet Image source: vision china

  Kilauea Volcano, located on the Big Island of Hawaii, is a powerful steam explosion eruption, spewing out a lot of volcanic ash. The recent eruption has destroyed 37 houses and other buildings in a small place in the southeast of Oshima, forcing about 2,000 residents to leave their homes.

  The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) also said that Kilauea volcano has ejected rocks the size of a microwave oven, which may be the beginning of an explosive eruption.

  The last eruption of this kind was nearly a century ago. Kilauea volcano is one of the most active volcanoes in the world. It started erupting nearly two weeks ago, posing an imminent threat to Hawaii.

  The eruption of Kilauea volcano prompted the authorities to issue an aviation red alert, because volcanic ash clouds may spray to the aircraft route and damage the engine of the jet.

  USGS warned that the steam explosive eruption might eject 10-12 tons of rocks into the air 800 meters, and cobblestone-sized rocks could be sprayed within 19 kilometers of Fiona Fang.

  This kind of eruption may cover the big island with a layer of volcanic ash much thicker than dust. Powder and volcanic smoke may spread to the Hawaiian islands, and if they float to the stratosphere, they will further affect further areas.

Innovation drive is the core strategy related to China’s long-term development.

  The Outline of National Innovation-Driven Development Strategy has made specific arrangements for the strategic objectives and paths of implementing the innovation-driven development strategy, which is both a design drawing and a general construction drawing.

  First, it is a great practice to implement the innovation-driven development strategy.

  Implementing the innovation-driven development strategy is not only a reflection of the general law of economic development, but also a great practice to realize the transformation of development power and realize the leap-forward development of the economy under the new historical conditions. According to Michael Porter’s theory of stages of economic development, a country’s economic development can be divided into several stages: factor-driven, investment-driven, innovation-driven and wealth-driven. With the growth of per capita GDP and the change of development conditions, the transformation from economic development to innovation-driven development is an inevitable process. Developed countries such as Europe and the United States have gradually entered high-income countries through long-term economic development and natural evolution of market economy, and achieved innovation-driven development. However, as a late-developing country, China faces different development conditions, and the competitive situation in all aspects has not allowed China to go through such a natural evolution process. Especially after the middle-income stage, facing the Achilles heel of lack of development motivation and innovation ability, it is the only choice for China to get rid of the danger of "middle-income trap" and enter a high-income country by realizing the transformation of development mode to innovation-driven as soon as possible.

  Driven by economic globalization and new technological revolution, the period of strategic opportunities for the country to achieve leapfrog development is shortening day by day, and the time window of new technological revolution and industrial transformation is fleeting. We must firmly grasp the general direction of innovation-driven development, seize the opportunities of technological revolution and industrial transformation, and take effective measures to guide the society to realize the transformation to innovation-driven development as soon as possible. Under such circumstances, the implementation of innovation-driven development strategy is a great historical practice, a strategic path to lead China to achieve its development goals and move towards the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, an overall strategy to closely integrate scientific and technological innovation with national development needs and truly rely on scientific and technological innovation to get out of the dream of becoming a rich country and a strong country, and a strategic choice made on the basis of profoundly grasping the world development situation, so it is bound to succeed.

  Second, the implementation of innovation-driven development strategy is a major ideological change.

  Throughout the history of human development, innovation has always been an important force to promote the development of a country and a nation, and it is also an important force to promote the development of the whole human society. Implementing the innovation-driven development strategy is a profound understanding based on summing up the history of human development and the experience of the rise and development of great powers, and it is a major change in the concept and thought of economic and social development. The Chinese nation is full of innovative spirit, which is the most distinctive gift of the Chinese nation. The Chinese nation has created a highly developed civilization and contributed countless scientific and technological innovations to the world. Implementing the innovation-driven development strategy is an innovation of the traditional development consciousness, which requires the whole society to deeply understand this major change in economic and social development thinking, firmly establish innovative ideas, form a strong innovative consciousness, and be brave in pioneering and enterprising. It also requires that the innovative spirit contained in the blood of the Chinese nation be further stimulated, and generate will develop new and greater energy and explore a way to rely on innovation to leapfrog development.

  Third, the strategic path to promote the transformation of economic and social development to innovation-driven

  To implement the "National Innovation-Driven Development Strategy Outline", from the perspective of strategic tasks and guarantees, it is mainly to handle several relations:

  First, firmly grasp the core and leading role of scientific and technological innovation. Scientific and technological innovation is the core and guidance of implementing the innovation-driven development strategy. It can be said that the "Outline" implements the "implementation of the innovation-driven development strategy, we must firmly grasp the scientific and technological innovation ‘ Bull’s nose ’ " The "three-step" strategic goal fully embodies the core and leading role of scientific and technological innovation, including entering the ranks of innovative countries by 2020 and greatly improving the ability of independent innovation; By 2030, it will rank among the forefront of innovative countries, and generally reverse the situation that scientific and technological innovation is mainly based on tracking; By 2050, it will become a powerful country of scientific and technological innovation in the world, a major scientific center and an innovative highland in the world. Through the implementation of these steps, the implementation of the innovation-driven development strategy will be based on strong scientific and technological innovation.

  The second is the combination of reform and development. Innovation-driven requires comprehensive innovation around the core role of scientific and technological innovation. Therefore, the Outline proposes to effectively create an institutional mechanism and a good environment for implementing the innovation-driven development strategy and accelerate the formation of a new source of development in China. To implement the innovation-driven development strategy and deepen the reform, it is necessary to create an institutional environment conducive to innovation-driven, form an innovation-oriented evaluation system, build an innovation system of regional coordination, military-civilian coordination and Industry-University-Research coordination, and break down the institutional and institutional obstacles that restrict the development of new industries, new technologies and new formats; It is also necessary to stimulate the enthusiasm of the whole society for innovation and entrepreneurship, cultivate and expand the main body of innovation, change from "minority" to "mass", and finally realize innovation for everyone and everywhere.

  The third is the combination of strategic traction and market foundation. To implement innovation-driven development, the most fundamental thing is to rely on the innovative motive force to stimulate the market, and a perfect market operation mechanism is the institutional basis for innovation-driven development. It is necessary to further promote the supply-side structural reform, create a fair competitive market environment, break the institutional constraints, and form a market operation mechanism that encourages and rewards innovation. On the other hand, it is more necessary to give full play to the traction role of strategy, give full play to the advantage of "concentrating on doing great things", strengthen the overall planning and intensive utilization of scientific and technological resources, strengthen the guidance of social innovation resources, promote the innovation of industrial technology system, break through and solve the core key and cutting-edge technology supply that restricts economic and social development, and create new advantages for development; At the same time, strengthen basic research, strengthen the basic capacity building and condition guarantee of innovation, and strengthen the source supply of innovation.

  The fourth is the combination of domestic and international. The flow of innovation elements is becoming increasingly global, and whether it can win in the future development competition depends on whether it can make full use of global innovation resources. However, global innovation resources are easier to gather and flow to areas with good innovation ecology, and innovation ecology has become a new source of international comparative competitive advantage. To implement the innovation-driven development strategy, we should create a good ecological environment for innovation, promote mass entrepreneurship and innovation, at the same time, fully attract, gather and utilize international innovation resources, deeply integrate into the global innovation network, absorb and utilize the latest scientific and technological achievements and high-end talents in the world, and provide stronger support for China’s transformation to innovation-driven.

  To implement the strategy of innovation-driven development, we must rely on the joint efforts of the whole society to guide the whole society to take the road of innovation-driven, so as to make profits by innovation and seek space by innovation, and finally achieve development by innovation and the future by innovation.

Still casting big models? The venture capital circle is waiting for Li Yanhong’s AI native application.

 

With the continuous development of artificial intelligence technology, entrepreneurs and investors in the AI community are looking for the next explosion point. However, they found that although the big model has made remarkable progress in technology, it is still out of reach in commercial realization. At the same time, the big model is a "gold-swallowing beast", the development and maintenance costs are extremely high, and people have become accustomed to the phenomenon of burning up hundreds of millions of yuan in financing in three months.

On the contrary, "AI native application" is the "golden beast" in the AI era. As Li Yanhong, founder, chairman and CEO of Baidu, has repeatedly emphasized, "AI native application is the real opportunity for entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs. The application has more obvious promotion effect on business, more room for innovation and more direct liquidity."

So facing the AI wave, what is the current investment attitude of the domestic market towards the big model? What is your attitude towards the innovation and development of application layer? How to do a good job of AI native application?

01

The big model is a "golden beast", and the investment is getting cold.

Since the release of ChatGPT in early 2023, it has ignited the enthusiasm of large models at home and abroad, and various funds have flocked. According to the data of IT Orange, as of September 25th, 2023, there were 73 domestic AIGC investment events with an investment amount of 8.295 billion yuan.

According to relevant media reports, the number of pre-training models on Hugging Face, the world’s largest large model open source community, has increased from 100,000 to more than 300,000.

As far as China market is concerned, according to the data released by Beijing Economic and Information Bureau, as of the beginning of October 2023, the number of large AI models published in China has reached 238.

According to the slow-motion observation, after the popularity of the first three quarters, it actually entered the fourth quarter, and the grand occasion of "everyone investing in a big model" in the past is no longer there. The media and venture capital circles frequently come up with prejudging conclusions such as "big model investment is getting cold", "just watching but not investing" and "no company can invest".

Founder Hao, the managing partner of Xiaomiao Langcheng, once said in an interview with the media: "At present, the investment opportunities at the model level can only continue the game among some players with strong capital. For investment institutions whose management scale is not particularly large, if they are not laid out as soon as possible before the industry is hot, they will not participate in the investment of large models at the current time. "

Why "no one throws a big model"? There may be three reasons behind the analysis.

First, investors began to realize that there are high technical barriers and cost thresholds to develop large models that are easy to use and available.

In a word, if you want to make a big model, you have to spend money like water. As a "pathfinder", OpenAI began to "burn money for a long time" without thinking about how to commercialize it. In April this year, according to media reports, the GPT model has 175 billion parameters, the training cost is 12 million dollars, and OpenAI burned 1 billion dollars. Seven months later, the input cost is even more incalculable.

The reason why Baidu can make a big model of Wenxin is also because it has invested almost 150 billion yuan in the chip layer, framework layer, model layer and application layer of artificial intelligence in the past ten years.

In addition, objectively speaking, under the hot appearance of the big model, there are still some technical gaps at home and abroad. Judging from the parameter scales of billions and tens of billions of language-based models of major domestic manufacturers, and the fact that most start-up companies are still making parameter models of billions and tens of billions, there is still a distance of 2-3 years compared with ChatGPT.

Second, the law of commercial competition is that whoever is efficient wins. What investors want to see is, under the same effect, whose reasoning cost is lower? Or at the same cost, whose effect is better?

Li Yanhong said: "’Working hard to make a miracle’ refers more to the process of exploring a large model from 0 to 1. Going back, this game is not this game, and it is more opposite. What is the opposite? It is the same as all commercial competition laws, that is, whoever is efficient wins. You can raise money, and I can also raise money. In the end, I use 10 yuan to make 100 points, and you use 10 yuan to make 120 points. Over time, you win. In other words, in order to make the effect of 100 points, I use 100 yuan, you use 80 yuan, and you win. "

Take Baidu as an example. Since it was released in ERNIE Bot in March, Baidu has reduced its reasoning cost to 1% of the original. It only dared to call 10,000 times, but now it dares to call 1 million times a day. This is because Baidu has layout in chip layer, framework layer, model layer and application layer, so it can be optimized end to end.

Third, the basis for investors to invest money is to see if there is any income, and the big model itself does not directly generate value.

First of all, as a general tool or platform, the big model provides basic ability and technical support, rather than a solution to a specific problem directly. Just like a hammer can be used to beat all kinds of things, it does not produce any specific products or services.

Secondly, the value of the big model lies in that it can be applied to actual scenes to solve specific problems. Only by combining the large model with specific application scenarios, through customized development and optimization, can its real value be brought into play.

Finally, the application of large-scale model requires professional skills and knowledge, including data preparation, model training, optimization and deployment. These tasks need to be completed by professional teams, so the application of large models also involves the input of manpower and resources.

In short, the big model itself does not directly generate value, but needs to be combined with application scenarios and professional skills input to play its real value.

So how to judge the quality of a big model?

"To be application-oriented, running points and brushing the list don’t count. Now many teams don’t know what is good and what is bad, but it is very unreliable to rely on third parties to score. There are more than 200 large models in China, many of which are on this list and that ranking, but there is actually no usage. I am afraid that the number of calls of Wenxin Big Model is greater than that of all the 200 combined. " Li yanhong said.

02

The native application of AI is the "golden beast" in the AI era.

There are many big models in China, but few AI native applications are developed based on them.

As mentioned above, as of October, 238 large models have been released in China, compared with 79 in June. In other words, the number of four-month-old models has tripled. But few people can name one or two native AI applications in China.

On the other hand, in foreign countries, besides dozens of basic models, there are thousands of AI native applications, which are not available in China market.

"The symbol of human beings entering the AI ​ ​ era is not to produce many large models, but to produce many AI native applications." Li Yanhong introduced that the big model itself is a basic base, similar to the operating system, so the final developers have to rely on a few big models to develop a variety of native applications. Therefore, it is a great waste of social resources to repeatedly develop the basic big model. "In the AI ​ ​ native era, we need 1 million AI native applications, but we don’t need 100 big models."

Why should China focus on the native application of AI? Why is the AI native application the "golden beast" in the AI era?

First, it can directly promote the business, especially the original biochemical transformation of AI for existing products; The AI native application built on the basic big model can affect the key indicators of the business and bring revenue and profit.

Microsoft is a very worthy example. It is a company that doesn’t make a big model, but it has made Copilot, the most successful AI native application at this stage, and has started to charge users at a price of $30 a month. At present, the market value of Microsoft has reached 2.8 trillion, five times that of OPEN AI.

Even domestic investors have set their eyes on the investment in application-layer products. For example, Bai Zeren, vice president of linear capital investment, once told the media: "We are also very concerned about the progress and changes of the big model itself. Considering the current market competition pattern and capital threshold, we will tend to invest in the application layer and new infra and other opportunities. I am more concerned about how the new technology landing industry can solve industrial problems more effectively and bring great commercial value to the industry. "

The second is a more direct way to start a business. Unlike big models that burn money, they have their own liquidity. Most of the generated AI products are paid.

In early November, Baidu launched version 4.0 of Wenxin Big Model, and tried to charge a subscription fee. At present, the number of paying users keeps a relatively high growth every day, and many users are willing to pay for Wenxin.

The same business model has also run abroad, including Microsoft’s copilot, and the annual revenue of three kinds of products abroad has exceeded 100 million US dollars: image generation, copywriting and code writing. In addition, in February this year, OpenAI also launched ——ChatGPT Plus, a paid subscription version of ChatGPT, with a monthly fee of $20.

Third, the real prosperity of new technologies must be the prosperity of applications, and the era of PC and mobile Internet is the best example.

For example, in the PC era, there was basically only one operating system, but there were many softwares developed based on Windows. In the era of mobile Internet, there are only two mainstream operating systems, Android and iOS, and there are 8 million mobile applications.

The big model era is very similar to the development of the above two eras. The big model itself is a basic base, similar to the operating system, so the final developer will rely on a few big models to develop various native applications. Therefore, it is a great waste of social resources to repeatedly develop the basic big model.

"In the AI ​ ​ native era, we need 1 million AI native applications, but we don’t need 100 big models." Li yanhong said.

03

In 2024, the year of opportunity for AI native applications?

Although domestic investors are concerned about AI at present and dare not invest in the application layer, it is impossible for them to let go of this trend opportunity, so the AI application layer will also be laid out in the future. It is worth noting that after a year of development and concentrated research, more and more investors have the ability to identify large models, and the living space of "shell-type" applications will be less and less.

Some people in the market have judged that 2024 must be the year of opportunity for the native application of AI. The author also agrees with this view, and analyzes the factors behind it mainly in three aspects.

First of all, China has a leading basic model, which provides a solid foundation for the development of AI native applications. For example, at the World Congress, Baidu Qian Fan launched its own "App Store"-AI Native App Store, which provided a trading platform for applications developed based on Wenxin Big Model. At present, the application store has launched AI applications developed by Baidu and customers for five scenarios: smart office, marketing services, industry functions, production efficiency improvement, and analysis and decision-making.

Secondly, similar to the emergence of mobile native applications such as WeChat, Tik Tok and Uber in the mobile era, excellent AI native applications will also be born in the AI native era. These applications will be developed based on the basic big model, with unlimited innovation space.

Finally, with the continuous progress of technology and the continuous innovation of applications, AI native applications will be applied in more fields, such as intelligent customer service, smart home and autonomous driving. These applications will bring more convenience and intelligence to people’s lives, and will also promote the further development of AI technology.

There are three key factors to develop good AI native applications: First, there are relevant industrial policies to encourage the development of AI native applications based on large models.

"China’s leading industries are often prescient in industrial policies. For example, solar photovoltaic, power batteries, new energy vehicles and other industries have been promoted by favorable policies. From January to August 2023, the global sales of new energy vehicles reached 8.23 million, and China’s new energy passenger cars accounted for 61% of the global new energy. If China is a fuel vehicle, it will curb demand, and it will also pay vehicle purchase tax if it is restricted and restricted. However, new energy vehicles have no such restrictions and naturally develop better. " Li Yanhong explained.

Second, the existing enterprises use the big model to have a positive effect on its business core key indicators. In this regard, Li Yanhong’s idea is: "This degree of attention needs to be raised. It’s easier said than done. In fact, the response of big companies is very slow. Even when big companies represent backward productivity, don’t look at what big companies are doing? "

Third, when and in which field can super applications appear? We need more startups and VCs to try together and make more efforts in this respect.

At the just-concluded geek park innovation conference 2024, Li Yanhong said that "the native application of AI is valuable, and the progress of large models is not an opportunity for most people". He encouraged everyone: "The real value lies in native applications, and native applications are great opportunities for large factories, small and medium-sized enterprises and entrepreneurs. I hope everyone can grasp them as soon as possible and try as much as possible. We will be able to find a path that suits our own development. "

tag

In the era of big model, practitioners, entrepreneurs and investors seem to have unlimited scenery. In fact, it took only half a year to cook oil, from rushing to the track to hitting the wall.

Although the big model era provides many opportunities, not every track is smooth sailing, only a few companies can stand out and are doomed to a narrow escape. Instead of competing for the distant overlord throne in the field of big models, it is better to innovate in the field of AI native applications, and perhaps create the next Super APP.

[Li Xiang China] To comprehensively deepen reform, we must uphold the people’s interests first

Grasping reform and promoting development, in the final analysis, is to let the people live a better life. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized in the Explanation of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China’s Decision on Further Comprehensively Deepening Reform and Promoting Chinese Modernization that "the people should be supreme, and the reform should be planned and promoted from the overall interests, fundamental interests and long-term interests of the people". This profoundly embodies the value orientation and goal orientation of further deepening the reform in an all-round way, and provides an important theoretical basis and methodological guidance for how to realize the people’s interests in the reform.

The question of why people are the touchstone to test the nature of a political party and a political power. Our reform insists on taking the people as the center, relying on and for the people’s reform. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that "reform is meaningful only if it is for the people", and that "to promote any major reform, we must grasp and handle major issues involving reform from the standpoint of the people, and we must plan reform ideas and formulate reform measures from the interests of the people". Insisting on planning and promoting reform from the people’s interests is determined by the nature and purpose of our party, the initial mission and the socialist nature of our country, and it is also the source of power to promote reform and development.

First, the inherent basis for upholding the people’s interests first

Insisting on planning and promoting reform from the interests of the people is an inevitable requirement for practicing the party’s initial mission. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed: "All the work of the Party is for the benefit of the common people", "We must persist in realizing, safeguarding and developing the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people as the starting point and the end result of promoting reform, so that the development results can benefit all the people more fairly. Only in this way can reform make a big difference". It is the fundamental difference between Marxist political parties and other political parties to always be with the people and fight for their interests. The Communist Party of China (CPC) is a political party for the benefit of the people. Its nature, purpose and initial mission determine that our party always represents the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people, without any special interests of its own. The century-old history of the Party is a history of working wholeheartedly for the interests of the people and connecting with the people. Adhering to the people’s interests above everything else is the fundamental principle for communist party people to deal with interests. Only by firmly grasping the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people can we ensure that the comprehensive deepening reform will not be lost, deviated or distorted in the complicated situation and arduous tasks, and that our party will practice the fundamental purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly, persist in building the party for the public and governing for the people, and benefit the people through reform and development.

It is Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s inherent requirement to persist in planning and promoting reform from the people’s interests. Chinese-style modernization is not the modernization of a few people, but the modernization that focuses on the interests of the overwhelming majority of the people, and it is an all-round development modernization centered on all the people. The core idea of this modernization is to uphold the people’s interests first, aiming at realizing people’s all-round development and ensuring that the fruits of development are shared by the people. The advancement of Chinese-style modernization, whether from the economic, political, cultural and social levels, is closely focused on the interests and needs of the people, reflecting the deep concern for the people’s well-being. Marx and Engels pointed out: "In the past, all movements were for or for the benefit of a few people. The proletarian movement is an independent movement for the benefit of the overwhelming majority of people. " The purpose of promoting reform is to constantly promote the self-improvement and development of China’s socialist system and give socialism new vitality. This determines that the reform is to better realize people’s interests, better enhance people’s well-being and promote people’s all-round development.

Insisting on planning and promoting reform from the interests of the people is the source of power for the smooth progress of reform. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed: "Only by relying on the people to carry out reform can reform have motivation." The success of China’s reform lies in the fact that the reform has brought tangible benefits to the people and won their support and support. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has persisted in promoting reform with the people as the center, always put the interests of the people in the supreme position, and grasped the most concerned, direct and realistic interests of the people to promote reform in key areas. From focusing on solving the problem of "difficult and expensive medical treatment" to promoting the centralized procurement of drugs and consumables organized by the state, to promoting the reform of ecological civilization system by adhering to the principle that "a good ecological environment is the most inclusive welfare of people’s livelihood", and then to the reform of judicial system to make people feel fairness and justice in every judicial case … … Practice has fully proved that persisting in planning and promoting reforms based on the interests of the people, fully demonstrating the gold content of the reform plan, and making reforms better meet the needs of development, the hopes of the grassroots, and the aspirations of the people, and further deepening reforms in an all-round way will have the most solid support, the most powerful confidence, and the most surging motivation.

Second, adhere to the people’s interests first throughout the whole process of further deepening reform in all aspects.

Governing the country is regular, and benefiting the people is the foundation. As a profound and great revolution in the new era, comprehensively deepening reform is essentially a readjustment of the existing interest relationship, a reconstruction of the existing interest pattern, and a reform of the current system and mechanism. However, no matter how to adjust, construct and change, it is always to realize, safeguard and develop the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people. Therefore, realizing, safeguarding and developing the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people is not only the starting point, but also the foothold of further comprehensive deepening reform. Adhering to the supremacy of people’s interests is not abstract and vague, but concrete and realistic, which must be reflected in all aspects of economic and social development and in the practice of better satisfying people’s yearning for a better life.

Ask for the needs of the people and listen carefully to the interests of the masses. With the rapid development of economy and society, people’s interests are increasingly diverse. Insist on planning and promoting reform from the interests of the people, first of all, we must understand the interests of the people. We should always take the demands of the masses as the "first signal", the interests as the "first pursuit" and the satisfaction as the "first standard", take the Party’s mass line well in the new era, visit the fields more often, often sit in farmers’ homes, listen to expectations and understand needs in the complaints of the masses, and be a good "public opinion collector". Practice the correct outlook on political achievements, actively respond to the concerns of the masses, take the people’s "voice" as the "starting point" of reform, turn the people’s "demand list" into a "task list" of deepening reform, start from what the masses expect most, and start from what the masses are most dissatisfied with, so as to ensure that what the people care about and expect, what the reform should grasp and promote, and make the reform ideas, decisions and measures better reflect the people’s demands.

Focus on solving the real interests of the masses. The problem is the voice of the times, and the human heart is the biggest politics. Adhering to problem orientation is a consistent fine tradition of our party, and it is also an important principle and thinking method for comprehensively deepening reform at present. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "We should put the reform measures into practice to test, let the grassroots judge and let the masses score". How much the people gain depends to a great extent on how well the problems that are needed for development, urgent for reform, desired by the grassroots and desired by the people are solved. Adhere to the problem-oriented and comprehensively deepen the reform, we must attach great importance to and focus on solving the painful and difficult problems in the field of people’s livelihood. Starting from the problems that the people are generally concerned about, strongly reflect and recur, we should try our best to solve the practical problems that the people care about, such as employment, education, medical care, social security, housing, pension, food safety and social security, and face the "hard bones" in the people’s livelihood reform through precise efforts to ensure that the reform measures respond to the urgency of people’s livelihood, conform to the will of the people.

Correctly handle all kinds of interest relations. Reform will inevitably involve the adjustment of interest relations. The deeper the reform, the more we should correctly understand and handle various interest relations, and seriously consider and give consideration to the interests of people of different classes and aspects. The fundamental standard for dealing with all interests is to realize the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people. If we stick to this principle, we can correctly grasp and handle the contradictions among various interests. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that in the process of comprehensively deepening the reform, we should seriously think about the actual situation of the masses when we encounter interests that are complex and difficult to weigh. What are the people expecting? How to protect the interests of the masses? Are the masses satisfied with our reform? Insisting on planning and promoting reform from the people’s interests, we should correctly handle the relationship between the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people, the common interests of the masses at the present stage and the special interests of different groups, enhance the coordination of reform measures, development measures and stability measures, and grasp the relationship between current interests and long-term interests, local interests and overall interests, personal interests and collective interests, so as to not only solve the problems that affect the vital interests of the masses, but also guide the masses to correctly handle various interests, express their interests rationally and legally, and create a stable and United social atmosphere.

Let the fruits of reform and development benefit all the people more fairly. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "The fundamental purpose of our reform is to make the country richer, the society fairer and more just, and the people’s livelihood better." If the reform can’t bring tangible benefits to the people, if it can’t create a fairer social environment, and even lead to more unfairness, the reform will lose its meaning and can’t be sustained. Under socialist conditions, national construction is the common cause of all the people, and the process of national development is also a process in which all the people share the fruits. Let the broad masses of the people share the fruits of reform and development, which is the essential requirement of socialism, the concentrated embodiment of the superiority of the socialist system, and the important embodiment of our party’s fundamental purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly. This requires us to persist in taking the people as the center, put people’s interests at the core of the reform, divide the "cake" further while doing a good job, and strive to let people share the fruits of economic, political, cultural, social and ecological development, so as to gain more, more direct and more realistic sense of gain, happiness and security, and constantly promote people’s all-round development and common prosperity of all people.

Reform is complicated, and the people’s interests are the purpose. Only when the reform is scientific can the effectiveness of implementation be guaranteed. On the new journey, we should unite more closely around the CPC Central Committee with the supreme leader as the core, always adhere to the people-centered reform principle, deeply engrave the "people’s interests first" on the new journey of comprehensively deepening reform, and constantly promote social fairness and justice and enhance people’s well-being, so as to surely turn people’s longing for a better life into reality step by step and strive to write a new chapter in building a socialist modern country in an all-round way.

Coupled with the precise positioning of the 3D optical mouse, it is placed together with the host, giving people a seamless feeling.

  Next, let’s test the performance of the Tang Dynasty G500T. The testing environment is Windows XP Professional en SP2, the graphics card driver is NVIDIA 91.33, and the screen definition is 1440X900.

  Intel Core Duo T2050 dual-core processor, clocked at 1.6GHz, manufactured on Yonah core, 65nm process, 2MB secondary cache, and front-end bus at 533MHz. Thanks to the low-power management technology, the Intel Core Duo processor minimizes energy consumption while ensuring powerful dual-core computing performance. The shared power management logic can be switched between Intel SpeedStep dynamic energy saving technology and idle power state to manage voltage and frequency more efficiently. The power consumption of the Intel Core Duo T2050 dual-core processor is only 31W.

  Super PI is a tool for measuring processor performance by calculating pi. Even if your system runs Word for a day, Photoshop is fine, and running Super PI may not pass. It can be said that Super PI can be used as a basis for judging CPU floating-point computing power and computer stability. In the Super PI 1.04 million-bit test, the Intel Core Duo T2050 computing time was only 37 seconds (the shorter the better). The strong performance of the Core Duo processor is self-evident.

  G500T uses the main board for Intel 945GM, south bridge with 82801 ICH7-M, support PCI-Express x16 bus, single 1G DDR2 memory, although worse than the performance of dual-channel mode, but to deal with some of the current 3D games, is completely comfortable.

  To say that among the six latest Shenzhou "Tang Dynasty" LCD integrated computers, the biggest highlight of the G500T is its GF7300GT 128M DDR3 independent graphics card. Of course, it is no longer the mainstream graphics card in the current market, but its performance cannot be underestimated. Here are the results of the 3DMARK2003, 3DMARK2005, and 3DMARK2006 tests:

  When users buy a machine, most people choose the model of the independent graphics card because of the game. I believe many players know that "World of Warcraft" is a popular game all over the world, and its expansion "World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade" that has not been released on the mainland has whetted the appetite of domestic players. I used "World of Warcraft" to do a test at 1440X900 resolution, 24-bit color, 24-bit color depth, 4X sampling, and the highest effect:

  From the tests of 3DMARKS and World of Warcraft, we can see that the performance of the GF7300GT 128M/128Bit graphics card is excellent, and it can fully meet the needs of most current games.

  The performance of the Tang Dynasty G500T in the above two tests is fair, and the results are not bad.

  

  Evaluation summary:

  The Tang Dynasty G500T adopts Intel Core Duo T2050 (1.6GHz) dual-core processor, GF7300GT 128M DDR3 independent graphics card, Intel 945GM main board, 1GB DDR2 memory, 160G SATA large-capacity hard disk, 19-inch widescreen LCD display, various interfaces are readily available, easily meeting the various needs of users at home and office. Overall, the G500T also has some shortcomings, such as the fact that the display part cannot be rotated left and right, a single memory cannot form a dual-channel mode, and a non-mainstream graphics card. However, its new and unique appearance design perfectly combines the traditional PC monitor with the host, abandoning the complex wiring and bloated figure. Combined with the excellent performance brought by Intel’s industry-leading processor products, the Tang Dynasty G500T is still a good home computer. I believe it will bring you a more efficient, concise and comfortable value experience.
