Hot Search: A Great Anti-cyber Violence Movie.

 Author: Hu Jianli

The film "Hot Search" tells the story behind a "girl’s bullying on campus" incident. By launching an online public opinion war, the heroine finally reveals the criminal truth of the real abuser, which not only has ups and downs and many reversals, but also reveals how online public opinion is incited and used.

In the current complex network public opinion environment in China, the release of this film is just the right time, which well reflects the presence and timeliness of film and television works, has a strong social practical significance, and has a warning effect on the majority of netizens. It is a realistic genre film with novel ideas and thought-provoking.

In 2013, Xin Yukun, a 29-year-old young director, won the Best Director Award at the 8th FIRST Youth Film Festival and the Best New Director nomination at the 51st Taiwan Film Golden Horse Award for his blockbuster suspense film Heart Maze. In 2017, the crime suspense film "Burst Silent" directed by him also enjoyed a good reputation, with 8.2 points for Douban and 54.25 million yuan at the box office.

In the above two films, Xin Yukun showed his exquisite multi-line circuitous narrative ability and unique cold realistic image style. Hot Search is the third cinema film directed by him independently, which also has suspense and criminal elements. The difference is that the story takes place in contemporary China metropolis, focusing on hot social topics such as online public opinion, online violence and sexual assault, which is more likely to resonate with young audiences.

This time, Xin Yukun took the initiative to change the theme and background of the story, and adopted a typological narrative technique that was more in line with the aesthetics of ordinary audiences. He told a story that was not very complicated, which was exciting and full of twists and turns, and was quite ornamental and topical, showing his strong narrative ability as always.Compared with the previous two works, Hot Search is a mature commercial film, but the background color of sharp observation of social reality and concern for vulnerable groups has not changed.

At the beginning of the film, Chen Miao, the editor-in-chief of the media played by Zhou Dongyu, published an explosive article on "Girls’ Campus Bullying" on the large-scale operated by his team, and also talked proudly about the skills of inciting online public opinion at the pre-editing meeting: "If netizens want to scold Zhang Xiaosui, we will provide scolding points". Unexpectedly, the girl Zhang Xiaosui committed suicide by jumping off a building after encountering cyber violence. Before jumping off the building, she sent a letter to Chen Miao to explain the hidden feelings. Chen Miaocai knew that she had been accidentally used as a gun. Although she had a desire for traffic and an ambition to become bigger and stronger from the media, she was a media person with conscience at heart. In order to make amends and get justice for Zhang Xiaosui, with the help of her colleagues, she burned her bridges and launched a just online public opinion war with Justin.

The framework of the whole story is not complicated, but the advantages are full and vivid details, exquisite narrative techniques, foreshadowing from time to time, and even sharp contrast between the hero and heroine, leaving some suspense until the last moment. Although it is not difficult to guess, because the focus of this film is not to create a suspense atmosphere, it enhances the drama and appreciation of the film.

Through the superb typological narrative skills presented in Hot Search, Xin Yukun once again proved himself to be a master narrator among the new generation directors in China, who can not only tell complex stories clearly, but also tell simple stories twists and turns.

Although Hot Search is a commercial film, it has a sharp observation and vivid description of the current chaos of online public opinion in China, showing reflection on online violence, criticism of those who are rich and heartless, and sympathy for the vulnerable groups.

In recent years, some plots in TV series, such as The Beginning and Imperfect Victims, have expressed and reflected on the phenomenon of cyber violence. However, on the big screen, except for a film "Search" directed by Chen Kaige in 2012, few works with this theme have met the audience. "Hot Search" can be called the most complete, complete and profound domestic film that shows the chaos of network public opinion and the phenomenon of network violence so far, and it has great social practical significance.

The film describes in detail the whole process of Chen Miao’s self-media and the investors behind it inciting and using online public opinion, and shows the audience the complete processing process of "hot search" one after another, which has a certain behind-the-scenes nature.

In the film, as an influential editor-in-chief from the media, Chen Miao’s mantra when she first appeared was "There are hot spots that cannot be ignored". In order to attract fans’ attention and reading, and win investors to increase investment, she broke the news about the video with ulterior motives, deliberately incited speculation without investigation and verification, and concocted the topic of "girl bullying on campus" into a hot search, which triggered cyber violence against Zhang Xiaosui, a girl who was pushed by netizens. Unexpectedly, as Zhang Xiaosui committed suicide by jumping off a building, online public opinion reversed, and netizens began to accuse Chen Miao of eating "human blood steamed bread" from the media. Chen Miao had a brainwave and quickly came up with a new trick: throwing a pot at a swearing netizen, interviewing Zhang Xiaosui’s mother, and using the video of the other side’s tears, not only earned another wave of traffic, but also successfully washed himself.

The wolf has a winning game when the shepherds quarrel. Chen Miao’s self-media farewell concoction of hot search and harvest traffic is just a pawn of the boss of the investor behind it, and Chen Miao is still complacent when he is shot by others. Subsequently, Chen Miao launched an online public opinion war with the other party to uncover the truth. The two sides constantly broke the news, and the public opinion reversed several times. Justice was once forced to the rescue …

The online public opinion war described in Hot Search not only makes the audience who are not familiar with online hype look thrilling, but also makes everyone alert: sometimes the so-called facts you see online are not necessarily the facts, and the so-called truth you see is not necessarily the truth. Each of us should maintain the ability of independent thinking, be objective and rational when speaking online, and don’t become an accomplice of cyber violence.

One of the most heartbreaking news in the first half of this year was that a primary school student in Hubei was knocked down by a car and killed. In the process of seeking advice from the school, his mother was attacked and insulted by some netizens because of her good image and elegant dress. In the end, the distraught and unbearable mother committed suicide by jumping off a building at the first seven hours of her child.

How to make the cyber violence that Hubei’s mother encountered before her death not happen again? How to make the cyber violence that Zhang Xiaosui encountered in the film not repeat itself? The film "Hot Search" has played a very good role in alerting the majority of netizens. I hope everyone can learn from it, consciously oppose cyber violence and jointly create a clean and tidy network public opinion environment.

Farewell to the Gods: Anti-superstition and Self-identity in Modern China

Time:19:00 on December 12th (Saturday)

Location:Tencent conference (ID: 698901072)

Speaker:Jie Shen (Associate Research Fellow, Institute of History, Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences)

During the rise of modern countries in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, the belief world of China people experienced rapid fracture and evolution. Superstition has risen from customs and people’s livelihood to a symbolic obstacle to the construction of a new nation. As a multiple carrier of culture, lifestyle and traditional politics, it has become a testing ground for all kinds of modernists to criticize, discuss and build an ideal model of a new country. Opposing superstition provides a complete possibility for the establishment of a strong attitude, which is both a position and a new belief. If the anti-superstition problem in modern China is regarded as a field of historical construction, then to clarify it, we need to follow the context to understand the emergence and development of the problem. "Superstition" has become the focus of criticism, and "set vector" also reflects the diversity of sources and paths. There is no unified direction to oppose superstition as an attitude, expression and practice. We will outline the development process of modernity in the first half of the 20th century with the pluralistic "enlightenment" and "politics" pointed by anti-superstition.

Rural Youth and New Culture Practice

Time:December 12th (Saturday) 19:00-20:00

Location:Bi Li Bi Li (room number: 22213171)

Speaker:Meng Dengying (Associate Professor, School of Humanities, China Academy of Social Sciences)

On the one hand, the country is advocating the cultivation of rural revitalization talents who know one thing and love two things, and rural areas need young people; On the other hand, the employment pressure of college students is increasing, and urban life is becoming more and more difficult. Can young people be combined with rural construction? This is a big issue of the times, not only the employment opportunities, but also the culture and values. To answer these questions, perhaps we need to look for clues from the background of the times in which young people support agriculture, especially from the historical context of the evolution of youth culture and values in China since modern times, and reflect on the driving force behind this phenomenon from the interactive tension between social reality and personal ideals. Furthermore, how to form a reflection from the practice of supporting agriculture and building youth in rural areas, rise to a universal level, and respond to the problems of the times is also an urgent task. Therefore, Guo Ren Xiang Jian Lecture Hall/Guo Ren Reading Club webcast lecture invited Meng Dengying from China Academy of Social Sciences to analyze and interpret it for everyone.

What Promoted the Scientific Revolution —— From the "Copernican Revolution"

Time:December 12th (Saturday) 19:30-21:00

Location:Baidu, Sina Weibo Live and Sohu Live.

Speaker:Wu Guosheng (Professor, Dean of Humanities, Tsinghua University, Head of the Department of Science History)

From Aristotle to Copernicus, how the traditional view of the universe based on subjective imagination evolved into a modern view of the universe based on mathematical observation is a revolution in the history of western science. However, there are many other factors behind this scientific revolution called "Copernicus Revolution", including Galileo’s well-known experiment of who landed the first two iron balls at the leaning tower of Pisa, Columbus, Magellan and other western explorers’ voyage to update the new horizon of the earth, and the revival of an ancient mysterious philosophy that regarded the sun as the image of God during the Renaissance. Then, how do the scientific, historical and philosophical factors behind the Copernican Revolution work together to develop western science? How did it promote the later industrial revolution? Looking back at China, is the most fundamental factor that restricted the scientific development of ancient China just the lack of interaction among these scientific, historical and philosophical factors? Peking University Publishing House invited Professor Wu Guosheng, director of the Department of Science History of Tsinghua University Humanities College, to be a guest in the live broadcast room of Peking University Boya Forum to tell you about it.

At present, the global epidemic in COVID-19 has not been extinguished, and the second wave of epidemic has come back. How to make the epidemic prevention and control orderly and make the social and economic life orderly? On the one hand, it needs the appeal and execution of the government, on the other hand, it needs the public sphere to play an important role in it.

Peking University Publishing House invited distinguished professor of the University of Macau and Wendy, director of the history department, to be guests in the live broadcast room.

From "migrant workers" to "takeaway brothers", from "Ram case" to "menstrual poverty", from "big data era" to "platform capitalism" … It is not difficult to see the changing track of topics of concern in the field of public opinion. This year, people pay more attention to the structural problems in the system. They either come from the field of work and technology, or from the gender structure. In this system of work, technology and patriarchy, how should individuals in the system "besieged city" handle themselves? On December 14th, in the second session of the "Questioning 2020" series, we invited you to think with us about how to break through the "systematic siege".

Location:Meeting Room 301, Physics Building, East China Normal University, No.3663 Zhongshan North Road, Putuo District

Speaker:Liang Zhan (researcher, Institute of Foreign Literature, China Academy of Social Sciences)

Hurd, a Northern Irishman who once worked in the British Foreign Office, served as the General Tax Department of China Customs from 1863 to 1911. During his tenure, he clarified, established and expanded the business including postal services, water services and foreign loans, and personally formulated the criteria and conditions for selecting and promoting foreign customs officers, which objectively made a great contribution to China Customs and served as an important mediator in a series of Sino-foreign negotiations. Therefore, some historians even regard Hurd as loyal to Yu Daqing, especially loyal to his sovereign, Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu, and call him "our Hurd". This lecture attempts to deeply analyze Hurd’s political and cultural identity with China and Britain through his experience in China and his biographical materials, and points out that no matter how Hurd gained the trust of the Qing government, his true national identity and sovereignty identity were tied to his hometown and motherland-Northern Ireland and the British Empire.

Foreign media: North Korea’s Fengxili nuclear test site is showing signs of restarting, and the satellite found traces of cars passing by.

Fengxili nuclear test site

  After North Korea announced a "major" test last weekend, American commercial satellites recently found signs of restarting the Fengxili nuclear test site abandoned by North Korea last year.

  South Korea’s "Central Daily News" quoted the US North Korea website "38 North" as saying on December 11 that "traces of cars and people passing by were found at the Fengxili nuclear test site", saying that "the tunnel area closed by the nuclear test site has not been observed before, but in the photos taken between November 18 and December 7, you can see traces of cars passing by and footprints of people on the snowy road".

  38North said, "It is still impossible to judge the significance of these activities, but at least it can show that North Korea may have left some personnel at the nuclear test base as it did in March this year." The media also said in March this year that "some slight footprints were found around the closed tunnel area, but no reconstruction trend was found at the scene". However, only footprints were found in March this year, but now there are traces of cars passing by. The situation is slightly different.

  The Central Daily News reported that from these slight signs, it is still impossible to judge that North Korea is restarting its nuclear test base. However, the South Korean authorities believe that North Korea can complete the restoration of the nuclear test site within weeks or months.

  In April 2018, North Korea decided that it would suspend its nuclear test and intercontinental ballistic missile launch test from April 21 of the same year, and it would abandon the Fengxili nuclear test site in northern North Korea.

  On May 24, last year, North Korea blasted several tunnels in the test site and dismantled related facilities, officially announcing the abandonment of the nuclear test site. According to Xinhua News Agency, an international press group composed of 10 overseas media reporters from China, Russia, the United States, Britain and South Korea covered the demolition activities at the scene.

  However, since the breakdown of the "Golden Specialist Meeting" in Hanoi in February this year, the denuclearization negotiations between the DPRK and the United States have reached a deadlock. In April this year, Kim Jong-un, the top leader of North Korea, limited himself to the end of the year and asked the US to come up with a new constructive plan in line with the interests of both sides. Otherwise, North Korea will take a new path.

  On December 8, North Korea announced that it had successfully conducted an "extremely significant test" at the Xihai satellite launch site.

Hot Search: A Great Anti-cyber Violence Movie.

 Author: Hu Jianli

The film "Hot Search" tells the story behind a "girl’s bullying on campus" incident. By launching an online public opinion war, the heroine finally reveals the criminal truth of the real abuser, which not only has ups and downs and many reversals, but also reveals how online public opinion is incited and used.

In the current complex network public opinion environment in China, the release of this film is just the right time, which well reflects the presence and timeliness of film and television works, has a strong social practical significance, and has a warning effect on the majority of netizens. It is a realistic genre film with novel ideas and thought-provoking.

In 2013, Xin Yukun, a 29-year-old young director, won the Best Director Award at the 8th FIRST Youth Film Festival and the Best New Director nomination at the 51st Taiwan Film Golden Horse Award for his blockbuster suspense film Heart Maze. In 2017, the crime suspense film "Burst Silent" directed by him also enjoyed a good reputation, with 8.2 points for Douban and 54.25 million yuan at the box office.

In the above two films, Xin Yukun showed his exquisite multi-line circuitous narrative ability and unique cold realistic image style. Hot Search is the third cinema film directed by him independently, which also has suspense and criminal elements. The difference is that the story takes place in contemporary China metropolis, focusing on hot social topics such as online public opinion, online violence and sexual assault, which is more likely to resonate with young audiences.

This time, Xin Yukun took the initiative to change the theme and background of the story, and adopted a typological narrative technique that was more in line with the aesthetics of ordinary audiences. He told a story that was not very complicated, which was exciting and full of twists and turns, and was quite ornamental and topical, showing his strong narrative ability as always.Compared with the previous two works, Hot Search is a mature commercial film, but the background color of sharp observation of social reality and concern for vulnerable groups has not changed.

At the beginning of the film, Chen Miao, the editor-in-chief of the media played by Zhou Dongyu, published an explosive article on "Girls’ Campus Bullying" on the large-scale operated by his team, and also talked proudly about the skills of inciting online public opinion at the pre-editing meeting: "If netizens want to scold Zhang Xiaosui, we will provide scolding points". Unexpectedly, the girl Zhang Xiaosui committed suicide by jumping off a building after encountering cyber violence. Before jumping off the building, she sent a letter to Chen Miao to explain the hidden feelings. Chen Miaocai knew that she had been accidentally used as a gun. Although she had a desire for traffic and an ambition to become bigger and stronger from the media, she was a media person with conscience at heart. In order to make amends and get justice for Zhang Xiaosui, with the help of her colleagues, she burned her bridges and launched a just online public opinion war with Justin.

The framework of the whole story is not complicated, but the advantages are full and vivid details, exquisite narrative techniques, foreshadowing from time to time, and even sharp contrast between the hero and heroine, leaving some suspense until the last moment. Although it is not difficult to guess, because the focus of this film is not to create a suspense atmosphere, it enhances the drama and appreciation of the film.

Through the superb typological narrative skills presented in Hot Search, Xin Yukun once again proved himself to be a master narrator among the new generation directors in China, who can not only tell complex stories clearly, but also tell simple stories twists and turns.

Although Hot Search is a commercial film, it has a sharp observation and vivid description of the current chaos of online public opinion in China, showing reflection on online violence, criticism of those who are rich and heartless, and sympathy for the vulnerable groups.

In recent years, some plots in TV series, such as The Beginning and Imperfect Victims, have expressed and reflected on the phenomenon of cyber violence. However, on the big screen, except for a film "Search" directed by Chen Kaige in 2012, few works with this theme have met the audience. "Hot Search" can be called the most complete, complete and profound domestic film that shows the chaos of network public opinion and the phenomenon of network violence so far, and it has great social practical significance.

The film describes in detail the whole process of Chen Miao’s self-media and the investors behind it inciting and using online public opinion, and shows the audience the complete processing process of "hot search" one after another, which has a certain behind-the-scenes nature.

In the film, as an influential editor-in-chief from the media, Chen Miao’s mantra when she first appeared was "There are hot spots that cannot be ignored". In order to attract fans’ attention and reading, and win investors to increase investment, she broke the news about the video with ulterior motives, deliberately incited speculation without investigation and verification, and concocted the topic of "girl bullying on campus" into a hot search, which triggered cyber violence against Zhang Xiaosui, a girl who was pushed by netizens. Unexpectedly, as Zhang Xiaosui committed suicide by jumping off a building, online public opinion reversed, and netizens began to accuse Chen Miao of eating "human blood steamed bread" from the media. Chen Miao had a brainwave and quickly came up with a new trick: throwing a pot at a swearing netizen, interviewing Zhang Xiaosui’s mother, and using the video of the other side’s tears, not only earned another wave of traffic, but also successfully washed himself.

The wolf has a winning game when the shepherds quarrel. Chen Miao’s self-media farewell concoction of hot search and harvest traffic is just a pawn of the boss of the investor behind it, and Chen Miao is still complacent when he is shot by others. Subsequently, Chen Miao launched an online public opinion war with the other party to uncover the truth. The two sides constantly broke the news, and the public opinion reversed several times. Justice was once forced to the rescue …

The online public opinion war described in Hot Search not only makes the audience who are not familiar with online hype look thrilling, but also makes everyone alert: sometimes the so-called facts you see online are not necessarily the facts, and the so-called truth you see is not necessarily the truth. Each of us should maintain the ability of independent thinking, be objective and rational when speaking online, and don’t become an accomplice of cyber violence.

One of the most heartbreaking news in the first half of this year was that a primary school student in Hubei was knocked down by a car and killed. In the process of seeking advice from the school, his mother was attacked and insulted by some netizens because of her good image and elegant dress. In the end, the distraught and unbearable mother committed suicide by jumping off a building at the first seven hours of her child.

How to make the cyber violence that Hubei’s mother encountered before her death not happen again? How to make the cyber violence that Zhang Xiaosui encountered in the film not repeat itself? The film "Hot Search" has played a very good role in alerting the majority of netizens. I hope everyone can learn from it, consciously oppose cyber violence and jointly create a clean and tidy network public opinion environment.

Looking at the fun fitness method, morning exercise is on the rise, and crawling fitness is popular in Britain.

  August 8 every year is China’s "National Fitness Day". Many people feel hot and tired when they think about fitness, and it is difficult to persist for a long time. In fact, there are many ways to keep fit. You can choose the happy one! Let’s take a look at some novel and interesting happy fitness methods that people all over the world have.

  Crawling exercise

  There are various ways to do morning exercises now, but recently a new exercise method has quietly emerged, that is, "crawling". Crawling fitness originated from Hua Tuo’s "Five Birds Play", which is to achieve the purpose of fitness by imitating the crawling movements of animals. Crawling can disperse the whole body weight to the limbs to reduce the load of all parts of the body, especially the lumbar spine, so it has certain curative effect on preventing and treating lumbar spondylosis, lumbar muscle strain and spinal diseases. In addition, crawling is a whole-body coordinated activity, which can make some muscles that are rarely used at ordinary times get exercise and strengthen the muscles, ligaments and bones of the whole body.

  body building exercise

  It is also a good choice to do a set of aerobics with soft music by taking advantage of the fragmented time in life. Mary Helen Bowers used to be an actress in the New York City Ballet. However, after ten years of dancing, her body was completely deformed due to her unrestrained life. Later, she used the previous ballet routine to create "Ballet Beautiful Ballet", a family-style exercise for women, and the "Swan Arm" course, which recently became popular in the domestic network, was one of them.

  Ballet dancing can achieve the effect of exquisite shaping. Every tiny muscle from finger to toe will be used when doing the action, even if it is a small action, it will have great sports effect. The point is that long-term practice will make people exude elegant and light temperament from the inside out.

  Running on the sand was once a very popular exercise method in Britain, which originated from running on the beach. Because running at the seaside is limited by many factors such as time, place, weather, etc., people move the beach indoors, so there is a sand house dedicated to running and exercising in London.

  Running on the sand is good for your health. First of all, when running on the sand, in order to keep the body balanced, the leg muscles should work harder than usual, which can enhance the exercise effect on the muscles; Secondly, the joints of ankle, knee, hip and waist should cooperate with each other to improve joint flexibility and enhance cardiopulmonary function; At the same time, fine sand can massage the soles of feet, improve peripheral blood circulation, improve resistance and cold tolerance, stimulate accessory adrenal tissue, promote hormone secretion, and whiten skin!

  parkour

  Parkour created by the famous French actor david belle is very popular all over the world. This sport takes the daily living environment (mostly cities) as the sports venue, and it is a sports art that relies on its own physical strength to quickly, effectively and reliably control any known and unknown environment. At the same time, it is also a philosophy to explore human potential and stimulate the limits of body and mind.

  Parkour can strengthen physical fitness and improve reaction ability. A professional parkour trainer can correctly control the danger and minimize it. When he is caught in various dangers such as fire, earthquake, attack, car accident and emergency, his chance of escape will be more than 20 times higher than that of ordinary people.

  recite

  In Japan, poetry reading is regarded as an activity that is both healthy and healthy. Japanese health experts believe that reading poems aloud often can increase vital capacity, improve memory, make thinking more flexible and clear-headed.

  Kick a fireball

  Young football fans in Indonesia like to play a special "playing fireball" sport. The sport is similar to playing football, except that the ball they use is burning coconut. What is even more surprising is that they all kick these hot fireballs barefoot.

  It is reported that this activity of kicking and burning coconuts barefoot is closely related to a traditional fighting skill in Indonesia. The purpose of holding this activity is to improve the courage of the participants while keeping fit.

  Kneeling fitness method

  Kneeling fitness method is a popular fitness method at present, which is created by urban white-collar workers. Although this method looks "shocking" at first, some doctors say that kneeling after meals can draw blood downward, which is beneficial to digestion and weight loss. However, kneeling fitness also varies from person to person. If it takes too long, it will easily oppress the nerves of lower limbs. Just stick to it for ten minutes after meals.
