a surname; short for Europe; luckyEurope is a close neighbor of the Middle East. Since the outbreak of the Arab Spring, European countries have generally paid more attention to the situation in the Middle East. As the spokesman of European countries’ political and diplomatic interests, the EU’s intervention and influence on the situation in the Middle East is obvious, and it has become an important external force affecting the development of the situation in the Middle East. Facing the derailed development of the situation in the Middle East, considering its own stability and security factors, the EU hopes to maintain stability and peace in the Middle East. In particular, the proliferation of terrorism and extremist forces in the Middle East poses a major threat to the political and security situation of the EU. The EU hopes to show its political and diplomatic influence by playing a role in Middle East affairs. The recent wave of refugees fleeing from the Middle East has brought great pressure to the EU countries, and it has become an urgent task for the EU to deal with the chaos in the Middle East. In the future, the EU’s Middle East policy will face great challenges.

The Middle East in EU’s Foreign Relations

Europe’s concern about conflicts and crises in the Middle East stems from historical, cultural and geopolitical factors of both sides. After the Madrid Middle East Peace Conference in 1991, Sweden, Norway, Britain, France and other European countries began to actively mediate the Arab-Israeli conflict. In 2000-2002, a serious conflict broke out between Israel and Palestine. Together with the United Nations, the United States and Russia, the European Union established the "four-party talks" mechanism on the Middle East issue, which played an important role in mediating the positions of both sides and coordinating the international community in mediating the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. During the international negotiations on the Iranian nuclear issue that have lasted for many years, the EU countries represented by France, Britain and Germany have become an important force in the international negotiations on the Iranian nuclear issue.

In recent years, the coordination and implementation capacity of the EU’s Common Foreign and Security Policy has been continuously improved, and it has played an important role in many international issues, especially in the Middle East. On December 12, 2003, the EU Summit held in Brussels, Belgium, adopted the "EU Security Strategy" document submitted by Javier Solana, the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy. According to this document, the EU has determined that "ten Mediterranean countries are the neighboring countries in the southern part of the Mediterranean", namely, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Israel, Palestine, Syria, Jordan, Libya, Egypt and Lebanon. [1] Among these ten countries, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt and Syria have happened to be the countries that have undergone great political changes in the Middle East since the end of 2010. It is not difficult to understand that the EU’s political, diplomatic and even military actions, such as intervention, mediation, mediation and pressure on these countries with turbulent political situation, are the embodiment of its practice of the Common Foreign and Security Policy.

The EU responds to the changes in the Middle East

And the actions and measures of the crisis

At the end of 2010, the political situation in Tunisia changed suddenly. With the development of the situation in Libya, Syria and Egypt, the European Union has intervened and interfered with the development of these countries in various forms, becoming an important external force affecting the development of the situation in the Middle East.

1. The EU and NATO led the use of force against Libya to overthrow the Qaddafi regime.

In the Libyan crisis in 2011 and the subsequent Libyan war, the EU and NATO played a leading role, while France became the most active EU country advocating the use of force against Libya. Shortly after the NATO-led military operation began, France took over the command of the Libyan war from the United States. France not only spared no effort to attack Libyan government forces militarily, but also reached out to Libyan opposition in politics, becoming the first country to reach out to Libyan political forces opposed to Gaddafi’s government. Soon, France took the lead in recognizing Libya’s "National Transitional Council". After the collapse of Gaddafi’s regime, French President Nicolas Sarkozy was also one of the first western leaders to visit Libya.

France’s position and attitude on Libya is closely related to France’s own strategy in North Africa and the Mediterranean region. France’s historical ties and complex with Libya and North Africa determined its "strong concern" for Libya and African affairs. At the same time, the political ambition and great power consciousness of then French President Nicolas Sarkozy greatly influenced France’s political adventure of taking the lead in overthrowing Gaddafi by military means. Of course, due to Gaddafi’s long-term anti-Western policy in the past, the EU took advantage of Libya’s political crisis to overthrow Gaddafi’s regime, which is beneficial to the EU’s political and security interests and to enhance the EU’s influence.

Second, the EU strongly supports the Syrian opposition and tries to overthrow Bashar? Assad regime

In the spring of 2011, demonstrations against the Bashar government broke out in Syria, and the domestic situation quickly became turbulent. In the following years, western countries, represented by the European Union, constantly urged the Syrian authorities to carry out reforms in line with public opinion. However, the development of the situation in Syria did not follow the direction hoped by the European Union and the outside world, but fell into a civil war, leading to rampant extremist forces.

In order to force Bashar to step down as soon as possible, the EU tried to adopt the "Libya model" to foster Syrian anti-government forces. On February 24, 2012, with the support of international organizations such as the European Union and the Arab League and some Arab countries, the first international conference of "Friends of the Syrian People" was held in Tunisia, attended by representatives from 70 countries including the United States, Britain and France. On the day of the meeting, British Foreign Secretary Haig said that Britain would formally recognize the Syrian National Committee, the largest opposition in Syria, as the legal representative of the country. In November 2012, French President Hollande announced that he recognized the "National Alliance" as "the sole legitimate representative of the Syrian people" and the "future government" of Syria. This means that France has become the first western country to formally and fully recognize Syria’s "National League". [2] But since then, the Syrian opposition has not formed an authoritative political organization supported by various forces. In June 2014, Bashar? In response to Assad’s re-election in the Syrian presidential election, the European Union issued a statement saying that this presidential election in Syria cannot be regarded as a "real democratic voting process". This gesture shows that although the EU is unwilling to accept Bashar to take charge of Syria again, it does not have an effective strategy to overthrow the Syrian regime as soon as possible.

3. The EU supports the changes in Egypt and pays attention to the prospects of domestic political development in Egypt.

In February 2011, popular demonstrations broke out in Egypt, and President Mubarak, who had been in power for many years, had to announce his resignation on February 11. The EU immediately issued a statement expressing its support for the smooth transition of the Egyptian regime. European Council President Van Rompuy, European Commission President Barroso and EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Ashton also issued a joint statement on the same day, welcoming Mubarak’s resignation.

After Mubarak stepped down, the situation in Egypt did not develop smoothly. In June 2012, the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, Morsi, representing the religious conservative forces in Egypt, was elected as the president of Egypt, and the European Union recognized it after the Muslim Brotherhood won. After Mursi took office, he was once committed to improving relations with the West. In September 2012, President Morsi visited the EU headquarters and Italy respectively. In January 2013, European Council President Van Rompuy visited Egypt and said that the EU would provide Egypt with 5 billion euros in loan assistance. In the same month, President Morsi visited Germany. In April, Ashton, the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Affairs, visited Egypt.

On July 3, 2013, the Egyptian military ousted the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, Morsi, who had been in power for only one year. The EU reacted cautiously. On July 4th, Ashton, the EU’s foreign policy representative, said in a statement that the EU is very concerned about the development of Egypt and believes that there are profound differences in Egyptian society. In order to learn more about the development of the domestic situation in Egypt, Ashton went to Egypt on July 30, 2013 to meet with the imprisoned former Egyptian President Morsi, which was the first contact with the outside world after Morsi stepped down. In August, the EU announced an embargo on some military supplies to Egypt. In June 2014, Egypt held a general election, and former military leader Sethi won. The EU sent an observer mission to supervise the elections in Egypt. After the elections, the EU issued a statement and accepted the election results in Egypt. After Sethi came to power, the EU made many contacts with the Egyptian authorities on issues such as resuming assistance to Egypt and accelerating the domestic reform process in Egypt.

Fourth, the EU used political and economic sanctions to put pressure on Syria, Egypt and other countries.

On the Syrian issue, the EU is the first western power to impose sanctions on the Syrian government. In May 2011, the EU began to impose sanctions on the Bashar government. The EU foreign ministers’ meeting adopted a resolution on May 14th, 2012, and decided to expand the scope of sanctions against Syria. Since May 2011, the EU has imposed several rounds of sanctions on Syria, and a total of 43 Syrian enterprises and 128 individuals have been included in the sanctions list.

During the political turmoil in Egypt, the EU not only exerted political influence, but also considered using economic means such as sanctions to influence the development of the domestic situation in Egypt. The EU is Egypt’s most important economic partner. As early as 2001, the EU signed the Egypt-EU Partnership Agreement with Egypt. According to the agreement, all industrial products and some agricultural products exported from Egypt to Europe enjoy duty-free treatment. At the stage of the political crisis in Egypt, the EU thought of using the cancellation of preferential trade conditions with Egypt to put pressure on the Egyptian authorities. In July 2013, when the Egyptian military government overthrew the democratically elected Mursi government, the EU decided to suspend the export of weapons to Egypt, but the economic assistance to Egypt continued. After Sethi was elected President of Egypt, the EU decided to maintain its economic assistance to Egypt.

V. EU strengthens security and counter-terrorism measures to deal with the threat of "Islamic State"

In the EU’s foreign and security policy, combating terrorism and terrorist threats is an important content. The Middle East is a high-incidence place of global terrorism. Considering its own stability and security, the EU strongly supports the countries in the Middle East in their struggle against terrorism. However, due to the definition of terrorism and different views on some organizations engaged in anti-government activities, the EU and some countries in the Middle East also have some differences in the field of counter-terrorism.

In September 2014, US President Barack Obama announced the establishment of an international "anti-terrorism coalition". Most of the allied countries expressed political support for this move by the United States, but they were extremely cautious about sending troops to war. German Foreign Minister Steinmeier said that Germany will not participate in the US air strikes against Syria. However, Steinmeier believes that the military strike plan of the League of Nations against the Islamic State should be based on "political strategy". He also said that Germany is ready to provide weapons to Iraqi Kurdish armed forces.

Although the EU strictly guards against terrorist organizations and terrorists from the Middle East from going deep into EU countries to create terrorist incidents, the sporadic terrorist incidents in EU countries in recent years still show that the EU’s security concerns are not unreasonable. Especially after the rise of the "Islamic State" forces in the Middle East in 2014, it has great appeal to young people with extreme religious ideas in many European countries. Some European citizens with extreme ideas have defected to the "Islamic State" through various channels. According to a British study, the "foreign aid" that went to Syria to participate in the war came from at least 14 European countries. Among them, Britain, France and Germany participated in the largest number of people, and hundreds of people from each country participated in the war. In addition, there were many citizens from Norway, Denmark, Belgium, Austria and other countries. Once these people return to China, they will pose a serious threat to the security of some European countries. On January 7, 2015, a terrorist attack on Charlie Hebdo magazine occurred in Paris, France, killing and injuring more than 10 people. According to a preliminary investigation by the French police, the suspect once went to Yemen and other turbulent countries in the Middle East to fight. This incident is enough to show that the influence of terrorist organizations and terrorist ideas originating in the turbulent region of the Middle East on EU security cannot be ignored.

The EU’s response to the changes in the Middle East

Restricted factors and prospect analysis

No matter from the perspective of hIStorical ties or geopolitics, there is no reason for the EU to ignore the major political changes in the Middle East and countries. However, from dealing with the growing tide of refugees to how to combat the Islamic State (IS) forces, the EU is facing more and more challenges. The EU’s intervention in the situation in the Middle East, including its influence on the internal political process of some countries in the Middle East, is not only restricted by the EU’s ability and desire, but also influenced by the increasingly fierce competition pattern among major powers in the Middle East.

First, the refugee tide in the Middle East: the urgent task for the EU to deal with the chaos in the Middle East

As the EU is adjacent to the Middle East, a large number of refugees fleeing from countries in the Middle East turmoil all take European countries as their escape destinations. According to the estimation of Antonio Guterres, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, as of June 2015, there have been 11 million refugees since the outbreak of the Middle East crisis, including 7.5 million refugees in Syria. 4.5 million Syrian refugees have fled to neighboring countries such as Lebanon, Jordan and Turkey. Refugees from Libya, Syria and other countries have ventured to escape to European countries such as Italy by boat. So far, more than 2,000 people have been killed in the sea. In May 2015, the European Commission put forward a proposal that member States accept refugees according to quotas, but it was opposed by some countries. In August 2015, during the meeting, the leaders of France and Germany put forward a proposal to accelerate the establishment of a unified refugee policy in the European Union. In September, a 3-year-old boy in Syria was killed at sea, which triggered a big discussion among EU countries on their refugee policies. Governments such as France and Germany indicated that they would increase their efforts to accept refugees. On September 9th, European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker announced a refugee quota scheme: 22 member states of the European Union will share 120,000 refugees in Hungary, Greece and Italy, including 31,000 refugees in Germany, 24,000 in France and 15,000 in Spain. The plan was enforced after being discussed by EU interior ministers. However, EU countries have different attitudes towards accepting refugees. Germany is relatively active and is the EU country that has received the most refugees in recent years.Nordic countries such as Denmark are relatively negative. However, if the situation in Syria, Libya and other countries continues to deteriorate, a considerable number of millions of refugees currently stranded in Lebanon, Jordan and Turkey will still regard EU countries as refugee destinations, which will put pressure on the EU.

Second, the EU needs to strengthen cooperation with other big countries in the process of coping with the changes and crisis in the Middle East.

The turmoil in the Middle East has a great impact on the political and security interests of Europe, which makes the EU pay close attention to the development of the situation in the Middle East. However, as a supranational international actor, the effect of its foreign policy has great limitations. The EU’s role as an international actor in foreign and security policy continues to be a "dwarf" image, and the foreign and security policies of nation-states within the EU are still its dominant feature. [3] The biggest disadvantage of the EU in intervening and dealing with hot issues in the Middle East is that the EU’s diplomatic executive ability is "virtual", and its political diplomatic resolutions and initiatives are not binding on its member States. In the end, the foreign policy of the European Union needs to be recognized and implemented by various countries within it to achieve results. In addition, the EU needs better cooperation with the United States, Russia and other big countries to play its role. Therefore, on many major issues in the Middle East, the EU plays a more "follower" or "coordinator" role. Of course, once there is an opportunity, the EU will spare no effort to play its role. For example, during the implementation of a comprehensive agreement on Iran’s nuclear issue, the EU’s position and attitude are crucial on issues such as lifting economic and military sanctions against Iran.

Third, the ability and effect of EU intervention in Middle East affairs are subject to many factors.

Whether it is Libya or Syria, the EU’s influence on the long-term development of internal situations in these countries is limited. After Gaddafi’s downfall, the situation in Libya continued to be turbulent, and even there was a situation of warlordism and melee, and external forces such as the European Union could do nothing about it. Regarding the situation in Syria, although the major EU countries have long cut off official ties with Bashar regime, Bashar won the domestic election for re-election in June 2014, and the EU seems to have no other better way except not to recognize it. Especially in dealing with the extreme armed threat of the Islamic State, the EU is one of the 54 countries and organizations participating in the US-led "anti-terrorist coalition". However, the EU is particularly cautious about whether to send ground troops to participate in the war. None of the EU countries have clearly stated that they will consider sending ground troops to participate in the war in the future, which shows that the EU countries are mainly concerned with preventing terrorists from infiltrating into Europe and are unwilling to send troops to fight in Syria and Iraq.

In a word, out of consideration of its own political, economic and security interests, and in order to better show its political influence, the EU keeps close attention to the development of the situation in the Middle East, but its ability and effect of intervention and intervention are also limited. Among the external forces affecting the development of the situation in the Middle East, the EU is indispensable, and it still needs to cooperate with other countries and international organizations.

　First, the development of basic Internet activities

　(A) basic information Internet applications

E-mail is one of the earliest Internet services, which plays an important role in information communication, and is also a widely accepted and low-cost Internet marketing channel for enterprises. As of December 2015, 89.0% of enterprises connected to the Internet have used the Internet to send and receive emails in the past year, and 62.1% of them have corporate mailboxes.

In addition, 71.9%, 67.2% and 58.3% of online enterprises have carried out basic information activities such as learning about goods or services, publishing information or instant messages, and obtaining information from government agencies.

　(B) Basic internal support Internet applications

Internet plays an important supporting role in the internal management of enterprises: 83.0% online enterprises assist financial work through online banking; 79.3% of online enterprises interact with government agencies and do things online, and the high utilization rate reflects the fruitful results of e-government construction; 57.4% of online companies are engaged in online recruitment. In addition to traditional ways such as posting recruitment information on recruitment websites and official website, social platforms and instant messaging tools have also become new channels, and 28.1% of online companies use the Internet to carry out employee training.

　(3) Basic network security protection measures

By December 2015, 91.4% of enterprises had installed antivirus software and firewall software, and more than 1/4 of them paid for it. According to the survey results, enterprises in China have basic awareness of network security protection.

　Second, the grassroots Internet full-time job setting

As of December 2015, 34.0% of enterprises have set up full-time Internet posts at the grassroots level, among which the proportion of micro-enterprises with 7 employees or less is the lowest, accounting for 30.2%, and the proportion of enterprises with 300 employees or above setting up special posts is close to 40%. At present, it is difficult for small and medium-sized enterprises to set up special posts. However, with the gradual improvement of Internet software and hardware configuration and the increasingly extensive and in-depth development of Internet activities, the demand for talents with professional operation and maintenance, R&D and commercial operation skills will surge.

In terms of industries, the proportion of special posts in industry and service industry is 28.5% and 38.0% respectively, with a difference of nearly 10 percentage points. Among them, the manufacturing industry is lower than the whole industry, and the wholesale and retail catering industry is lower than the whole service industry. It is an urgent problem to improve the attention paid by enterprises to grassroots professionals in order to realize "intelligent manufacturing" and develop modern service industry closely related to people’s livelihood.

　　[Global Network Report] According to Fox News, the average gasoline price in the United States is almost twice that of Biden when he took office.

　　According to the report, Biden’s tweet was ridiculed, on the one hand, because the diagram misspelled "peson" as "pest", on the other hand, Biden’s attempt to attribute the drop in oil prices to his own behavior caused dissatisfaction.

　　Russell, a contributor to the Washington Observer and the Daily Signal, wrote: "But I thought you had nothing to do with oil prices?"

　　Louisiana Senator Bill Cassidy said: "In other words, compared with Biden when he took office, the average American’s monthly gas bill has increased by more than 100 dollars." Fox News said that when Biden took office, the average gasoline price in the United States was $2.39/gallon; On Monday, the average oil price in the United States was $4.36/gallon.

　　"Compare it with the price a year ago, deceitful salesman." Conservative media person Cass Dylan tweeted.

　　Fox News said that there are still many Americans facing oil prices close to the highest level in history. Biden previously said that high oil prices and serious inflation were caused by the Russian-Ukrainian military conflict, which was "Putin’s price increase." Some netizens said: "Since you blame Putin for the price increase, should we attribute the price reduction to him?" ↓

1905 movie network feature Is traffic the original sin? This discussion has never stopped.

　

Since the movie was released, there has been even more discussion on this issue, and most of these discussions are aimed at it. Interestingly, the topic of "traffic" started with Lu Han himself.

　

Today, the 12-day release of "Shanghai Fortress" is only 0.2%, and the cumulative box office is only 121 million, which does not match its previous investment at all. At the same time, the movie’s reputation is even more miserable. According to the Douban algorithm, it is only better than 1% sci-fi.

Although the market performance was mediocre, the popularity of the film on the Internet has not "cooled". However, compared with other films in the same period, it received more mockery from the outside world.

　

Why did a "Shanghai Fortress" generate such controversy?

　

Because he is Luhan

　

Yesterday, a director interview titled "Domestic Film Annual Tragedy: I Used the Wrong Luhan" once again pushed the traffic topic to a climax. In this manuscript, the director of "Shanghai Fortress" accepted an interview with a self-media, responding to negative word-of-mouth and casting and other controversial issues.

In the manuscript, it mentioned "why choose Luhan".

　

Emphasizing that he initially considered Lu Han suitable for this role, "After this time, if I want to reflect, I did overlook one point, the difference between the sci-fi war we want to shoot and his type of actor.I used the wrong Luhan, in a genre that didn’t suit him."

As for "If I give you another chance to choose, will I change actors?"

　

"When I chose Lu Hanhe, I really thought of a sense of contrast, since I’m talking about a secret love. But now it seems that many audiences are concerned about how well they match the sci-fi genre. My intuition now is that it’s really not that Lu Han is bad, but that we haven’t shot this type of film, and we don’t know what the actors look like in it. Whether it can be played by an idol like Lu Han, I didn’t judge well at the time."

　

Of course, the reporter also pointed out that although Luhan had participated in the director’s role for only 6 minutes, a few comments were positive about his acting skills.

　

"[‘Shanghai Fortress’] just happened to be at the point where he wanted to seek innovation and change, but he didn’t complete the transformation," Mr. Teng said. "It turns out that we intuitively feel that Tom Cruise is also a handsome guy. How can people use handsome guys to save the world, but I can’t?"

At the same time, the director also said in the interview that the choice of Luhan was not because of his traffic, but also understood that traffic is a double-edged sword. "They will definitely help with publicity, but they will definitely not help the box office."

　

In the entire manuscript, the director Teng Huatao did not absolutely throw the "blame" on Lu Han, but pointed out that in his current opinion, Lu Han is not suitable for this film genre.

　

But Teng Huatao also forgot one thing, as a director, it is his duty to train actors. In Zhang Yimou’s original words, there is no actor who can’t act, only the director is incompetent.

Unexpectedly, after the entire article was published, the title that was too "grandstanding" directly caused another change in public opinion, allowing many marketing accounts to find the possibility of continuing to "fan the flames".

　

After all, in the past few years, in the eyes of many people in the outside world, Lu Han’s important character is the strongest traffic.

　

However, since 2018, after experiencing the collapse of the reputation of TV dramas and the sale of discounted tickets to concerts by scalpers… It seems that the netizens mocking Lu Han has become the most correct thing.

　

Why Luhan?

　

Yang Nairen, Lu Han’s former agent, once said, "With Lu Han’s return to China as a symbol, a new model of star chasing has kicked off." Since then, data has become Lu Han’s biggest highlight. At the same time, stars competing for entertainment resources all use data to prove their strength. The number of Weibo fans, comments, and retweets… has become the most important basis for measuring the commercial value of stars.

　

Luhan’s single Weibo comment broke the Guinness Book of Records certification

　

From 2014 to 2016, Lu Han was once a "cash cow" for scalpers. As long as there are events or variety shows he attends, tickets can be sold up to tens of thousands of yuan. In 2016, Lu Han entered the rich list of China’s post-90s generation with 230 million.

　

During this time, he starred in three films – and. The first two films took the 365 million and 215 million box office respectively, while the word of mouth remained above 6 points. And the collaboration "Grave Robber Notes", despite its poor reputation, still took 1 billion box office.

Judging from various commercial data, Luhan is a success.

　

Not only Lu Han, but also,, and others are all traffic stars who have gradually reached the top during this time period. Someone once joked that in the film and television industry investment promotion fair at that time, the most sought-after works were the works participated in by traffic stars.

And the works have also become their "cause of sin", because in the eyes of many people outside, this group of "traffic people" have no works.

　

In fact, the various labels on "traffic" are very familiar to everyone, but still few people are willing to use "actor" to define them. The inherent label "traffic can’t perform well in works" is still stuck to them.

　

What about the Luhans?

　

In past interviews, the traffic never denied the imperfections of their past works. They also hope that they can truly become an actor.

　

During the promotion of the movie "The Great Wall", Zhang Yimou talked about this topic in an interview with People’s Daily:

　

In fact, for any young actor, the tempering of his acting skills requires a process. First of all, give him the opportunity to do so, and don’t deny him. None of us will ever be there. So it is divided into two. Of course, some people may be very old, but their acting skills are still lacking. If everyone is not satisfied, they need to improve. We believe in the market, and we believe that the audience will survive the fittest. As far as I am concerned, most of the young actors I see are still very hard-working, at least those we have worked with, including the young actors we have worked with on "The Great Wall",Ah, Luhan, in fact, I work very hard, people are very friendly, and the cooperation is very pleasant. It cannot be generalized.

　

But whether it is a word like (small fresh meat) or a phenomenon like this, it is impossible for us to go back 30 years. (Reporter: How do you say?) Because it is very difficult for an actor to come out. Now there are more opportunities, and it is possible for an Internet celebrity to suddenly appear on the Internet. More opportunities is a good thing, let young people exercise by themselves. I believe that everyone has their own judgments of values when they grow up, and I also believe that the majority of the audience will also have judgments. A person who really can’t help on the wall will be eliminated by the audience. You don’t have to worry, no one will pay for it in the end. I think it doesn’t matter. I think it is a good thing to have such a discussion, and it is also a pressure on all young people. That is to say, you have to live up to your name, not to live up to your name. So what are you going to do? Start with yourself, strengthen your self-cultivation, strengthen your acting skills, and strengthen your life.

　

Similarly, Lu Han said in an interview with Shanghai Fortress that I am learning about the word actor step by step, and I especially want to deeply study the aspect of acting, because I am also gradually transforming, hoping to use my actions to gain more recognition step by step.

The failure of "Shanghai Fortress" doesn’t mean that Luhan really deserves to be laughed at. At least in works like "Twenty Years Old" and "I Am a Witness," Luhan proved himself as an actor.

　

Looking at other traffic, Wang Junkai used "Sinkhole Falcon" to tell netizens about his efforts after the trial and error of "The Great Wall"; Zhang Yixing was also willing to sacrifice more exposure, "hiding" on an isolated island, and handed over… These examples are not just special cases, but will become the current situation of these traffic on the road of performing arts in the future.

On the contrary, looking at the entire market, "Shanghai Fortress" should become a special case. It is more like a warning to the filmmakers behind, telling them that the road is still being explored, and we allow failure, but this failure is for future progress.

On July 25th, the 2024 Haval Big Dog was officially launched, and the new car launched a total of three models.
