It can be said that Alphabet (Google’s parent company), Meta and Microsoft, the three giants of American AI, have handed over their own stage test scores, but unlike the impression formed by the outside world in the previous paragraph, Google, which has been constantly sung, has seen its share price soar after the financial report, while Meta, which won a heart by Llama 3, has evaporated by 1.6 trillion overnight.

Only Microsoft continued to exceed expectations, watching the other two unreliable rivals smile and get back the top spot in the world market value.

Google, the big brother who is often upstaged by his peers on various occasions, is finally proud this time.

Not only did Q1′ s revenue, advertising and cloud business all increase at a faster speed, but it also crushed all the indicators, with an increase of over 15% after the close, and announced the dividend distribution and $70 billion stock repurchase plan for the first time.After the financial report was published, Google’s market value soared by 300 billion US dollars, making it the fourth largest listed company in the world after Microsoft, Apple and NVIDIA.

In this quarter, the total revenue of Google’s parent company Alphabet was 80.54 billion US dollars, much higher than the market expectation of 79.04 billion US dollars, up 15% year-on-year, the fastest growth rate in two years. Net profit jumped 57% year-on-year to $23.7 billion, and diluted earnings per share was $1.89, up 61.5% from $1.17 in the same period last year.

Despite betting on the big language model Gemini training and infrastructure investment, the AI capital expenditure of $12 billion this season exceeded expectations by $1.7 billion. Closely related to AI, the growth of cloud business, which is regarded as Google’s next growth engine, is still accelerating rapidly. Revenue in the first quarter increased by 28.4% year-on-year to $9.6 billion, which was higher than the analyst’s expectation of $9.37 billion, and doubled the overall revenue growth rate for several consecutive quarters. Although it ranks third in the market share of cloud computing, it is still trying to catch up with Amazon and Microsoft, but it is finally on the right track of turning losses into wins.

"In the past eight months, we have released more than 1,000 new products and functions in the field of cloud computing. At the Google Cloud Next conference, more than 300 customers and partners talked about their success in artificial intelligence on Google Cloud, including global brands such as Bayer, Mercedes-Benz and Wal-Mart. " Google CEO Sandel Pichai said at the earnings conference.

And the credit still has to be given to AI. Like Microsoft, more and more enterprises seek to deploy AI load on public cloud, and Google Cloud also provides customers with various generative artificial intelligence services through the Gemini model. Recently, a new CPU「Axion "based on Arm architecture was launched, aiming at improving the efficiency of cloud computing and reducing operating costs, and further strengthening Google’s competitiveness in the cloud market. Polat, CFO, stressed that "artificial intelligence is making an increasing contribution" to the sales of Google’s cloud division.

Pichai also believes that the transformation of artificial intelligence is a "golden opportunity", and the company is racing against time to integrate this technology into the whole business.At the Google Cloud Conference earlier this month, everything revolved around generative AI, further opened and optimized Gemini 1.5 Pro, and officially launched its own most powerful and expandable AI accelerator TPU v5p P.

In addition, the core advertising industry has also achieved steady improvement this quarter. Total revenue was $61.6 billion, a year-on-year increase of 13%. Among them, Google search and other advertising revenue was 46.2 billion US dollars, and YouTube advertising revenue was 8.1 billion US dollars, both of which achieved double-digit growth.

However, for Google, which is still positioned as a "search giant" in the market, the boost of generative AI may be a double-edged sword: on the one hand, Google is exploring new income channels such as advertising placement, independent subscription service and enterprise authorization through AI tools such as Gemini to adapt to market changes and needs. On the other hand, improving the generative search experience may affect the original advertising profitability. At the same time, the rookie of AI search engine represented by Perplexity also faces potential challenges.

In fact, compared with Microsoft and Meta, Google has not had an easy time these months. First, Gemini’s image generation function was forced to withdraw from the market because of racial discrimination, which once triggered a controversy about whether Pichai was qualified as CEO of Google. After paying a large amount of severance pay for layoffs, this week, 50 employees protesting against the company’s signing of a cloud computing contract with Israel were fired, causing internal riots.

In the midst of disputes and challenges, this beautiful financial report comes at the right time. Not only has it greatly boosted market confidence, but it also shows that Google has found the right direction in the AI ? ? era. With the recent reorganization of the artificial intelligence department and more attention to product speed, Google’s performance in the second half of the year is still expected.

After experiencing the "efficiency year" of business focus adjustment, department reorganization, artificial intelligence and layoffs and cost reduction, Meta made a beautiful turnaround with a revenue of 40.1 billion US dollars in the last quarter. The share price has soared by 140% in the past 12 months, far exceeding Google’s 50% and Microsoft’s 35%.

In this 2024 Q1, the social media giant, which just released a new generation of open source model Llama3, continued to reap the most brilliant first-quarter performance in history, with revenue and profit higher than Wall Street’s expectations.

The data shows that Meta’s total revenue in the quarter was US$ 36.46 billion, a year-on-year increase of 27%, the fastest growth rate in three years. Net profit increased by 117% year-on-year to US$ 12.37 billion, and diluted earnings per share was US$ 4.71, more than double that of US$ 2.2 in the same period last year.

Among them, advertising business is still the core income source of Meta, and the results are gratifying. It increased by 27% year-on-year to $35.64 billion, accounting for nearly 98% of the total revenue. The daily users of FoA increased by 7% year-on-year to 3.24 billion, and the advertising exposure also increased by 20%.

This is mainly due to the application of artificial intelligence technology, which significantly improves the accuracy of targeted advertising. According to Meta, at present, more than half of their advertising recommendations are driven by AI.

After falling to the bottom in 2022, Meta tried to regain the market share of digital advertising. Zuckerberg then launched an initiative to reorganize the advertising business, with the focus on using AI. Susan Li, CFO, once said that the company has been investing in AI models that can accurately predict user-related advertisements and tools that automate the advertising creation process.

In terms of software, Meta recently presented the "GPT-4 level" open source AI model king Llama 3, defeated Gemini 1.5 and Claude 3 in a number of benchmark tests, and upgraded the potential training parameters to 400B b. Widely used in different platforms and scenarios, and vowed to wash off LLM companies and API suppliers with free commercial blood. At the same time, Meta AI is integrated into family applications such as Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and Ray-Ban smart glasses to provide users with more flexible and diverse assistant functions.

In terms of hardware, like every colleague who doesn’t want to be stuck, Meta not only stepped up the storage of NVIDIA chips, but also released the latest version of Training and Inference Accelerator (MTIA). Using TSMC’s 5nm process, focusing on strengthening AI reasoning, it is specially designed for the ranking and recommendation system of its social software, and its performance is three times higher than that of the previous generation. They also developed a large rack-mounted system that can accommodate up to 72 accelerators to support self-developed chips. Now they have been deployed in the data center of Meta to complement the commercial GPU.

With the cooperation of AI software and hardware, overseas retailers from China, such as Temu and Shein, also added a fire to Meta’s performance with huge investment in Facebook and Instagram advertisements. And with the approaching of the US presidential election in 2024, political advertising has surged. According to the latest forecast of AdImpact, this year will be the most expensive election cycle in American history, and the advertising expenditure is expected to reach 10.2 billion dollars.

At the same time, due to the annual efficiency adjustment plan, Meta laid off nearly 10% of its employees, and the total number of employees was 69,329 as of March 31, 2024.

In stark contrast to streamlined operations, Xiaozha’s more drastic artificial intelligence layout. In the face of the growing AI war in Silicon Valley, Meta raised its capital expenditure from the expected $30 billion to $37 billion to $35 billion to $40 billion in 2024 to "accelerate infrastructure construction to support the company’s AI roadmap" and continue to compete for top AI talents with high salaries to join the company’s technology research and development.

In addition, he seems to have a "obsession" with the meta-universe, saying that he will continue to invest in long-term goals and "build a virtual world full of incarnations." It should be noted that although the revenue of Reality Labs, which is responsible for VR/AR/MR and Metauniverse development, increased year-on-year, it still lost $3.8 billion, and the total loss has exceeded $45 billion since the end of 2020.

Various unstable factors, together with expanding AI expenditure and a lower-than-expected revenue outlook for the second quarter, have caused the market to worry about Meta’s future sustainable profitability. Despite handing over a super-bright performance answer sheet, Meta’s share price still fell.

And this does not seem to shake Zuckerberg’s determination to push AI. Just as the stock price is diving, the financial report phone will be opened as scheduled.

He firmly told investors that he would spare no expense to build Meta into "the world’s leading artificial intelligence company". It also revealed that Meta is actively exploring a variety of AI revenue-generating strategies, including providing enterprise-level services, introducing advertisements into AI interactions, and allowing people to pay for larger AI models and more access to computing resources. AI has also helped Meta to increase application participation, thus allowing more advertisements to be seen and directly improving advertisements to bring more value.

However, Xiaozha also bluntly said, "Building a leading AI will be a more arduous task than optimizing the application experience, and it may take several years."The implication is that although the long-term value of taking AI is full, don’t expect it to make big money immediately. The words directly scared the market to collapse. Meta’s share price plummeted by 18% after hours, and its market value shrank by nearly $200 billion.

This unexpected trend just reflects the current general attitude of Wall Street towards artificial intelligence: compared with a lot of AI investment, the market wants to see the balance between expenditure and growth, and looks forward to a clearer monetization signal.

However, for Meta, fully embracing AI technology and then applying it to social networks, advertising, metauniverse, wearable devices and other fields, even if it takes several years to turn into considerable profits, it is also determined to pay and wait. Zuckerberg blocked his future this time, and he won’t go back when he opens his bow.

Unlike Meta, which was plunged by the Nasdaq market, Microsoft gained momentum after its financial report was released. It rose by 5% after hours, and overtook Apple for the nth time to become the highest value company in the world.

As the first commercial track leader to bet on generative artificial intelligence, Microsoft’s performance is still firm, and all business indicators have exceeded expectations:

The total revenue was $61.86 billion, up 17% year-on-year, exceeding the previous official guideline of 14.5%. The net profit was $21.94 billion, up 20% from $18.3 billion in the same period last year. The adjusted earnings per share was $2.94, higher than the market expectation of $2.82.

Driven by the strong demand of AI, Intelligent Cloud, including Azure public cloud, Windows server, voice recognition software Nuance and GitHub, continued to live up to expectations, with revenue increasing by 21% year-on-year to $26.7 billion, higher than the market expectation of $26.25 billion. The growth rate was the highest in five fiscal quarters, and it also surpassed rivals Amazon AWS and Alphabet Google Cloud.

Among them, Azure and other cloud services increased by 31% year-on-year, and 7 percentage points came from AI contribution.

In this regard, CEO Nadella pointed out in a conference call that "Azure has become the center of AI projects, involving not only AI models, but also databases and other services. Many customers are using Microsoft platforms and tools to build their own AI solutions:

More than 65% of Fortune 500 companies are using Azure OpenAI service, and GitHub Copilot for developers has 1.8 million paid subscribers. 30,000 customers use Copilot Studio low-code tools to customize their own Copilot. "

In addition to intelligent cloud, since this is the first full quarter since Microsoft launched 365 Copilot generative artificial intelligence assistant to commercial customers last November, the market is also very concerned about the sales performance of Office suite.

Nadella said that Copilot has embedded the latest technology of OpenAI into Microsoft’s entire product line to provide customers with various value-added services. The data shows that the revenue of productivity and business process departments increased by 12% year-on-year to $19.6 billion in this quarter, of which the revenue of Office 365 increased by 15%, and the number of paid subscribers has reached 80.8 million. It is expected that it will continue to achieve steady growth in the next fiscal quarter-which shows that Microsoft has a solid foundation and remarkable achievements in the commercialization of AI software.

In addition, thanks to the acquisition of Activision Blizzard in October last year, Microsoft’s personal computing revenue, including game business, also achieved double-digit growth to $15.6 billion, and Xbox performance increased by 62% year-on-year.

Nadella confidently said: "Microsoft is leading a new era of AI transformation, bringing better business results to various roles and industries."

Since the beginning of this year, Microsoft has been making great moves in the field of AI. On the eve of the financial report, an exciting news was announced: on the basis of the 2020 cooperation agreement with Coca-Cola Company, we will continue to sign a five-year strategic contract worth $1.1 billion. Help it achieve further digital transformation through Microsoft Azure Cloud, Microsoft 365 Copilot tools and leading generative artificial intelligence technology.

Last week, Microsoft’s artificial intelligence empire expanded to the Middle East for the first time: it invested $1.5 billion in G42, an AI company in the United Arab Emirates, and obtained its minority stake and board seats. Meanwhile, G42 will run its AI applications and services on the Azure cloud computing platform.

In the layout of the big model, after spending $13 billion on OpenAI, Microsoft also decided not to spoil ChatGPT alone, but to open up more possibilities. In February, it was announced that it had reached an in-depth cooperation with Mistral AI, a French star AI startup, investing 150,000 euros and providing computing infrastructure to assist in large-scale model training and reasoning. Mistral has also become the second commercial closed-source model supplier of Microsoft besides OpenAI.

In March, after leading the latest round of financing for the artificial intelligence unicorn Infection AI, Microsoft directly poached its two co-founders and most of its technical staff. Mustafa Suleyman, the former CEO of Influence, was appointed as the CEO of Microsoft AI, a newly established artificial intelligence department, responsible for integrating consumer toC products, including Copilot, Bing and Edge, and reporting directly to Nadella. Another co-founder Karen Simonyan joined as the chief scientist. One operation not only obtained the authorization of Influence technology, but also completed the talent acquisition of "hollowing out" level, which once shocked the industry.

In terms of hardware, in addition to introducing two new Surface as the next generation AIPC, Microsoft is also developing a new network card similar to NVIDIA ConnectX-7 to support the self-developed Maia 100. It also plans to hoard 1.8 million AI chips by the end of this year and triple the number of GPUs. Significant progress has also been made in building a data center worth up to $100 billion with OpenAI and building a supercomputer called "Stargate".

Bet on a number of mainstream large model development teams, make great strides in data processing capabilities, coupled with the stronger technical advantages after the launch of GPT-5, Microsoft has a stable position in the Jianghu.

Looking at the new round of financial performance of Meta, Alphabet and Microsoft, it is not difficult to see that generative artificial intelligence has penetrated into all aspects of the business pipeline and become the core engine driving enterprise growth.

Microsoft’s success is particularly typical, with a number of AI software and hardware forward-looking layout firmly in the top spot, and various businesses take off at high speed.

Although Meta’s huge AI investment makes investors jumpy, it is still unknown whether it can realize commercial profit as soon as possible, but the advertising revenue boosted by AI has achieved initial results. With Llama’s big model and computing power blessing, Zuckerberg’s determination and ambition to build a global AI leader should not be underestimated.

As for big brother Google, it finally found its own rhythm in the AI ? ? war. Weapons such as Gemini and TPU have sharpened their swords and are ready to accelerate the search for new growth points in the AI wave.

The judgment of the three giants on the development direction of artificial intelligence is surprisingly consistent, and they all offered a gamble of real money to invest in this future technological change. Standing on the cusp of the times, how high and how far AI can finally take them, the eyes of the global technology industry will look here.

　　Thirteen policemen from Chengdu Public Security Bureau spent two months making Chinese and English lyrics and filming MV. Compared with this past police song, which focuses on the grand background, this song can be said to be a "love song" dedicated to police and firefighters all over the world. "Ordinary hero, leaving a determined figure. In different territories, we all carry heavy burdens, day and night, and we fight to the end in order to leave a great body. " Pay tribute to the ordinary heroes around you!

　　From losing weight to loving running

　　There are a group of dream catchers at the World Police Marathon.

　　On August 8th, the 18th China Chengdu 2019 World Police and Firefighters Games (hereinafter referred to as "World Police Games") was held in Chengdu. On the morning of August 9th, the World Police Half Marathon will take the lead in Dujiangyan. At that time, six contestants from Qingbaijiang Public Security Bureau will compete with many policemen and firefighters from all over the world to start for their dreams!

　　Speaking of Chengdu police who can run marathons best, Deng Yong, a policeman from Qingbaijiang Branch, must be on the list. In August, 2017, Deng Yong won the fourth place in the 10km cross-country race and the sixth place in the half marathon at the 17th World Police Conference held in Los Angeles, USA. The best score of the individual marathon was 2 hours and 43 minutes, which was close to the standard of 2 hours and 34 minutes for a first-class professional marathon athlete.

　　"If there is another way in life, I may become a professional marathon athlete." Deng Yong said that since he joined the police for nine years, he has traveled all over the country’s famous racetracks, and he has left his presence in Chongqing, Xi ‘an and Shanghai.

　　When he first joined the public security work, Deng Yong was assigned to Qingquan Police Station, which is far away from Qingbaijiang City. Since he was a child, he liked long-distance running and stopped physical exercise because of work and life, and his weight suddenly increased from more than 60 kilograms to 85 kilograms. In an incident dealing with school bullying, several youths ran away when they saw the police coming. Deng Yong, who won the long-distance running championship on campus many times, was defeated, and none of them caught up. He secretly made up his mind that he must regain his former style.

　　From then on, Deng Yong practiced running whenever he was free. All the streets, village roads, mountain roads and ridges in Qingquan Town are covered with his running and working footprints. A few months later, Deng Yong’s weight dropped to 60 kilograms, and his running speed came back. Gradually, he found the feeling of being the champion of long-distance running.

　　In recent years, Deng Yong has participated in more than 30 marathons, and won the first place in armed cross-country race and mountaineering in provincial and municipal police and firemen’s games. Today, Deng Yong is one of the best police officers in Chengdu, and he has also led a large number of colleagues to join the long-distance running team. He said: "Long-distance running can not only exercise physical fitness, but also find unique happiness from it."

　　Speaking of the goal of this year’s World Police Games, Deng Yong bluntly said that there is no goal, and running on the track is success.

　　Wang Xinhua, a policeman of the patrol brigade of Qingbaijiang Branch, also participated in the World Police Marathon, and his running course also started from "losing weight". At the beginning of running, Wang Xinhua could only stick to 5 kilometers at a time, and the speed was also very slow. After a month, you can run 10 kilometers, not only the speed is improved, but also the weight is reduced by 5 kg. This gave him great confidence, and slowly, from losing weight at first to falling in love with running later, running gradually became a part of his life.

　　"It is an honor to participate in a world-class competition at home. Fortunately, this honor has come to me." Wang Xinhua said, "I hope to break through myself on the track of half marathon. Men who run are generally not too bad luck!"

Editor’s Note: This article comes from the column of Radar Finance in Entrepreneurship State. Author: Zhang Kai Jing, Editor: Deep Sea, Source: Turtles.

Thousands of takeaway riders are not only trapped in the system, but also trapped in the employment relationship.

Recently, Beijing Zhicheng Legal Aid and Research Center for Migrant Workers released a 57-page Legal Research Report on the Employment Mode of Takeaway Platform (hereinafter referred to as the Report), which revealed the complex and rapid evolution of the employment mode of Takeaway Platform in the past 10 years, and gradually developed into 3 categories and 8 main modes.

Through the change of mode, the take-away platform has successfully stripped away the labor costs and employment risks brought by riders, and separated them layer by layer. Through a series of superficial legal arrangements and cooperation with distributors/crowdsourcing service companies and flexible employment platforms, the labor relations of riders have been broken step by step, thus quietly pushing them to the edge of rights protection.

Nowadays, the legal isolation effect between the take-away platform and the distributor/crowdsourcing service company is remarkable, and the recognition rate of the take-away platform is basically controlled within 1%.

Shao Moumou has been a "hungry" special rider since October 2017, and is engaged in full-time take-away delivery in Beijing. In the middle of the night of April 2019, Shao Moumou had just delivered the last order. Just as he was riding an electric car on the side of the road, waiting for the backstage approval to get off work at 12 o’clock, a large truck with high beam lights came on. Subsequently, Shao Moumou fell into the big pit in front of the road, causing serious injuries.

Because there was no money for medical treatment in Beijing, Shao Moumou returned to his hometown for treatment and support, and confirmed that the accident had constituted a level 9 disability after half a year. At this point, Shao hopes to determine the work-related injury, but the search for employers has become a major problem.

After entrusting Zhicheng Center to seek legal aid, Shao Moumou quickly won the labor arbitration in Beijing and successfully confirmed the labor relationship with Dias Company, which belongs to the site. But a week later, Shao Moumou received the news that Dias Company filed a lawsuit against him in Chongqing, where it was registered.

After the change of the litigation place, the litigation result has also changed. In November, 2020 and May, 2021, Shao Moumou lost the first trial and the second trial in succession, despite the help of Zhicheng Sichuan Legal Aid Station for Migrant Workers, and the hope of obtaining compensation for work-related injuries was basically dashed. But Zhicheng did not give up.

The day before Zhicheng published the Report, the fifth legal procedure in this case had just started. Because Diaz Company once said in Chongqing that it had outsourced the relevant distribution business to Taichang Company, and Shao Moumou’s salary has been paid by Taichang Company, the current prosecution object of Zhicheng is Taichang, and it is jointly and severally liable for being hungry.

"When the case hit the middle, we were once desperate because we couldn’t find an employer, which just shows the complexity and seriousness of the system. Workers have been injured for more than two years, and legal proceedings have gone on for more than one year. Is it necessary to pay such a huge price after the rights and interests of workers are hurt? " Tong Lihua, director of Beijing Zhicheng Law Firm and member of the legal expert database of Beijing Municipal Committee, said.

Yan Lihua also said that during the whole process, the platform did not see any reflection, did not express any apologies to the injured workers, and did not have any opinions on this process and how many workers solved related problems. Even proposed to lose money, but if you are hungry, the platform doesn’t want to sign any words, just want to take money to sign a confidentiality agreement and solve the case.

As a professional legal aid institution for migrant workers, Zhicheng Center realizes that Shao’s hardship is a concrete epitome of tens of millions of take-away riders, which is essentially caused by the complex form of the employment mode of the take-away platform in reality, but these complicated legal relationships hidden in the take-away system have not been fully revealed and discussed so far.

In order to fully understand the employment mode of take-away platform and related problems, Beijing Zhicheng Legal Aid and Research Center for Migrant Workers conducted field visits for nearly three months, had in-depth exchanges with industry experts, and with the help of more than 50 volunteers with professional backgrounds such as law, economics and computer science, formulated a Report containing 1,907 valid judgments.

Radar Finance has learned that the Report has made a detailed analysis of the three categories and eight modes of employment of take-away platforms in the past decade.

Before the take-away platform appeared, restaurants usually hired their own employees to deliver; After the appearance of the take-away platform, the take-away staff turned to be recruited by the platform. In the early stage of the scale of the take-away market, the platform will still attract a large number of laborers to flood into the distribution market with generous treatment. At this point, a formal labor contract relationship will still be established directly between the takeaway and the platform.

At this stage, the platform may also adopt the mode of labor dispatch, that is, a labor dispatch company is added between the rider and the platform. However, China’s "Labor Contract Law" guarantees that the labor dispatching unit and the employing unit shall bear joint and several liability for compensation when the workers are damaged.

In the middle stage of the development of take-away platforms, the cost of transportation capacity has increased greatly, but the platforms have been "rolled up" badly, so optimizing the transportation capacity structure has become the first choice for major platforms, and crowdsourcing mode has emerged.

However, the court almost never finds that crowdsourcing riders have a labor relationship with the take-away platform, even when the take-away platform directly signs a cooperation agreement with crowdsourcing riders. Because crowdsourcing riders have a very high degree of freedom, the use and management of the platform is very different from the employment management in the labor law.

After the take-away platform cooperates with crowdsourcing service companies and further "legally isolates" itself from crowdsourcing riders, it is even more impossible for the court to identify the labor relationship between the platform and crowdsourcing riders. Only in a few scenes, the court will find that there is a labor relationship between crowdsourcing service company and crowdsourcing rider, such as the rider engaged in full-time distribution on a single take-away platform, and the scene caused serious damage.

It is worth mentioning that the ability of these crowdsourcing service companies to resist risks is open to question. One of the crowdsourcing service companies of Hummingbird crowdsourcing has a registered capital of only 50,000 yuan, which has not been paid in full. In the first half of 2021, it was listed as an executor of dishonesty twice.

After the emergence of crowdsourcing, the "regular army" of the platform was also outsourced to distributors, but a large number of distributors required riders to sign contract agreements, cooperation agreements and part-time agreements during the entry process, which greatly affected the identification of labor relations and the protection of rights and interests of escort riders. At the same time, the existence of the distributor also makes the complaint that the special delivery rider wants the take-away platform to bear the responsibility of the employer end in failure.

On this basis, some distributors subcontract all or part of their distribution business to other companies or even individuals, forming a complex outsourcing network. This makes the takeaway platform clear the legal relationship with the special rider.

What Shao Moumou encountered was the network outsourcing model after multi-layer evolution. After a series of moves, the rider’s labor relationship has been completely dismembered, and it is increasingly difficult for the court to determine the employer in judicial practice.

However, this is not the ultimate form of the evolution of employment mode. In recent reports, many special riders have been registered as individual industrial and commercial households, which directly changes the employment relationship between riders and distributors into the equal cooperation relationship between riders and flexible employment platforms and distributors, and the platform is almost impossible to be recognized as an employer.

More than 1900 judgments have also proved the above evolution. According to the statistics of the Report, among the 1,907 valid judgments, there were 1,719 cases involving the US delegation and being hungry, including more than 1,500 cases involving exclusive riders and less than 200 cases involving crowdsourcing riders.

The first condition for the protection of the labor rights and interests of the rider is to confirm the labor relationship with the employer. At first, when the take-out platform was self-employed, the rate of the rider’s recognition of labor could reach 100%. When the take-out platform outsourced the business to a first-class distributor, the rate of the rider’s recognition of labor dropped to 81.93%. When the distributor outsourced the business again, the rate of the rider’s recognition of labor further dropped to 47.46%.

Among them, there is the problem of identifying labor relations and objects. After the take-away platform changed from self-management to outsourcing, the probability of being identified as an employer dropped sharply from 100% to 0.32%, and it dropped to 0 when it was in the mode of individual industrial and commercial households. The distributor also successfully reduced the court’s recognition rate from 81.93% to 47.46% and 58.62% through outsourcing and individual industrial and commercial households.

In infringement cases, almost all the employer’s responsibilities that the take-away platform had to bear were transferred to the distributor/crowdsourcing service company, which was reduced from 100% of the platform’s self-operated and labor dispatch to less than 15%.

Based on this, the Report puts forward several major challenges of the take-away employment mode, namely, the cooperative employment mode artificially breaks the labor relationship, the rights and responsibilities of the take-away platform are not unified, the distributor market is fragile and gradually distorted, the protection of rider’s labor data and personal information is not in place, and the crowdsourcing mode changes from flexible employment to sticky employment.

Regarding the problems shown in the Report, Tong Lihua believes that the labor contract law and social insurance law should be revised as soon as possible, and the main responsibility of platform enterprises should be clarified.

"The platform manages and supervises the riders in real time through algorithms and digitalization, and has mastered all the data and enjoyed the greatest benefits. But now the platform throws all the main responsibilities to others, which is inappropriate. I agree that the platform will assign responsibilities to other cooperative companies through agreements, but in this process, the platform still has to bear the main responsibility. What’s the point of doing some so-called public welfare while evading and shirking the responsibility of labor and employment that you should bear? "

Zhicheng pointed out that the take-away platform should ensure that the special riders establish formal labor relations, and set up qualification requirements and access thresholds for cooperative companies. You can refer to the regulations of the construction industry and prohibit the cooperative company from subcontracting or outsourcing the main business part.

Tong Lihua also suggested that the state carry out special governance to promote enterprises to improve the reform of the employment system.

Specifically, we can conduct a comprehensive survey of distributors in the market, or take joint investigation actions against the flexible employment market to strengthen the supervision of the statutory obligations of employers and the registration and audit mechanism of individual industrial and commercial households.

In addition, Tong Lihua also advocated that more organizations should join the team to help workers defend their rights. "Trade unions can promote participation in relevant law enforcement work, and we also need more professional public service organizations to safeguard the rights and interests of workers."

Yu Shaoxiang, an expert on social security policy and chief researcher of innovation engineering at the Institute of Social Development Strategy of China Academy of Social Sciences, pointed out that the Report is solid and its conclusions and suggestions are operable. In the next step, we can further study which legal provisions need to be revised and how to amend them, so as to achieve better results.

Radar Finance noted that following July, the General Administration of Market Supervision, the National Network Information Office, the National Development and Reform Commission and other seven departments jointly issued the Guiding Opinions on Implementing the Responsibility of Online Catering Platforms and Effectively Safeguarding the Rights and Interests of Take-away Food Delivery Workers, on September 10, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and the All-China Federation of Trade Unions and other four departments interviewed 10 platforms, including Meituan, Hungry and Didi, with the guidance platform as the main content of how to protect the rights and interests of workers.

Radar Finance will continue to pay attention to whether the employment mode that separates layers and gradually strips off platform risks will actually return to the route of protecting workers’ rights and interests, or will continue to evolve into new "variants".

Special feature of 1905 film network　Compared with the domestic animated film Nezha, which has won nearly 1 billion box office in just a few days, the new version of The Lion King, which was adapted from Disney animation, is somewhat "acclimatized". Up to now, the box office in the Mainland has just exceeded 800 million. No one’s all-CG "real lion version" adaptation form also appeared on the big screen for the first time, which caused a lot of controversy.

Netizen’s homemade "Lion King" animation style Xiao Simba

Audiences who are familiar with Disney will be familiar with the "live-action version" of animated films. There are princess series such as Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Curse, etc., which have captured the hearts of many young girls, and later include Dumbo, Aladdin and Fantasy Forest. The live-action version of Mulan, starring China movie star Liu Yifei, has been occupying the hot search list for many days.

What many people don’t know, however, is that the source of Disney’s animated adaptation of live-action movies should be traced back to jungle book in 1994, and Fantasy Forest, which was released in 16 years, was also adapted from the The Jungle Book. The hero of the film is also a Chinese movie star — — Jason Scott Lee.

A real person, lion, wolf, elephant and monkey version of jungle book.

It’s just that the movie didn’t cause much response after it was released. Disney didn’t arrange such a huge animation adaptation plan for live-action movies until Alice in Wonderland and Sleeping Curse made a good box office.

Disney live-action adaptation movie box office list

Animation adaptation of real-life film and television works has always been a way of film and television production. Excellent original paintings have accumulated audiences and word of mouth, but it is not easy to break through the limitations of comics and gain more audiences. For example, the word-of-mouth and box office of The Lion King have formed a huge gap, which is not conducive to the subsequent expansion of the Lion King IP.

In China, there are also a large number of film and television works adapted from live-action versions, among which there are many excellent classics and wonderful works.

Let Xiao Dianjun take you to find out.

Anime adaptation of the live-action movie China existed 70 years ago.

As early as 1948, we had already made a cartoon adaptation of a live-action movie — — San Mao, played by Wang Longji, is also the first real-life cartoon image on the screen in China. Zhang Leping created Sanmao in 1935. He is thin and short, with only three hairs on his head. He can only make a living by selling newspapers, polishing shoes and being an apprentice, but he still struggles hard with life. He can be said to be the epitome of suffering children in the old society.

The comic book "San Mao Joining the Army" was published in Shanghai Shenbao in 1946, which was a sensation. Another masterpiece, The Wandering of Sanmao, was serialized in Ta Kung Pao the following year. Sanmao written by Zhang Leping aroused strong social repercussions because it reflected profound social contradictions. In those days, life was hard, and people needed people with the spirit of "Xiaoqiang" like San Mao.

In 1948, the film "San Mao Wandering"

In 1948, Sanmao first went from comic books to the big screen. Of course, the film experienced many twists and turns from production to release, including stopping shooting, hiding in the snow and continuing shooting, and finally was released in December 1949. On the eve of founding ceremony, as the first step of the official release of the new China, the film "San Mao’s Wandering Tale" was first released in Shanghai Daguangming, Maggie and other theaters. During the two months of continuous screening in Shanghai, it was full.

In the 1980s, this film also participated in a series of European exhibitions, and caused a sensation at Cannes Film Festival. It was shown in six cinemas in Paris for 60 days, followed by another month. At this year’s Shanghai International Film Festival, a 4k restored version of San Mao’s Wandering Story also appeared in the screening unit.

According to statistics, there are more than 50 kinds of comic books about Sanmao’s image, and the cumulative printing quantity exceeds 10 million copies. On the basis of the adaptation of the original comics and movies, a series of film and television dramas about Sanmao have emerged. It was adapted into a movie twice in 1958 and 1980, a TV series twice in 1996 and 1999, and an animation by CCTV in 2006.

The reason why Sanmao can become a national classic children’s figure is closely related to the time when he was created and the lack of people’s entertainment resources, so the derived adaptation works can last for nearly 60 years.

These wonderful adaptation forms may be unheard of by you.

The big move of Disney animation adaptation film is to restart the classic IP and harvest a new wave of young audiences. Although according to the box office of The Lion King and Aladdin, Disney has achieved its goal, but this new wine in a bottle is also a double-edged sword, and Disney’s creativity may disappear with the adaptation.

The technology of real people +CGI can make the scenes in animation vivid, but many years ago, the imaginative space that animation could give the audience was stifled by the "animal telling people" that was too realistic and inconsistent.

If cartoons and animations are well received and widely spread before adaptation, it will be difficult for the live-action version to surpass the original. The preconceived idea will make the audience unconsciously compare the real person with the cartoon character, and once the deviation of the real person’s casting is too large, the reputation of the whole work may collapse.

Live-action version of Big Head Son and Little Head Dad

In 2018, Ying Da made the national animation "Big Head Son and Little Head Dad" into a sitcom. Although the animation series also launched a restart version of the drama series and 3D movies before, the images of big head son and little head dad also maintained a consistent "animation style".

This sitcom uses live actors instead of special effects, which will inevitably lead to the "smaller head" of the big-headed son, and the little-headed father played by Chen Chuang has nothing to lose, so this drama has no interest.

Little head dad, big head son and apron mom are three.

Just like the big-headed son doesn’t have a "big head", the apron mother just wears an apron. This way, there is no way to fool the original audience of comics.

Since the use of real-life realism has been criticized, the original image has lost its charm, so how do these "surreal" images behave?

Old Master Q shows off his skills.

Old Master Q, a Hong Kong cartoon, has been adapted into a real movie for many years, and the most influential one is The Professor 2001 directed by Qiu Litao and produced by Tsui Hark. The film adopts a combination of real people and animation, using CG technology to make Old Master Q, sweet potato and "Feng Zhi" group contract stage drag show.

The form of using real people to play real people and using special effects to make "dummies" really brought a refreshing feeling to the audience in that year, and finally gained a box office score of 18.36 million Hong Kong dollars, ranking among the top ten in Hong Kong box office in 2001. It has also achieved a leap in Hong Kong’s film special effects technology.

Old Master Q, sweet potato and Cecilia Cheung.

The adaptation of the following films is even more "nonsense" — — The switch of honey juice between human pig and Jin Roh: The Wolf Brigade also puzzled the audience.

"Springfield Flower Reunion" BiBi Zhou plays McDull when he grows up.

In 2006, the popular McDull series was remake into a live-action movie "Springfield Flower Reunion". BiBi Zhou, who has just made her debut as a "super girl", plays a girl who forgets her childhood heart and finally realizes that she was a pig when she was a child after being tortured by robbers.

The film takes the form of two-dimensional animation and a brand-new original story of real people, forcibly treating the animation part as a fragment of memories. In the end, the film did not gain traffic and word of mouth because of the blessing of a number of Hong Kong and Taiwan stars, and was even regarded as a failure of the McDull series.

The lazy sheep and the gray taro couple crossed

The adaptation form of real people’s happiness and big Wolf movies is even more surprising — — This time, Big Wolf and Pleasant Goat crossed into the real world to rescue Little Grey, and turned into human beings.

Wang Xun becomes a big wolf.

Although Wang Xun’s acting skills can fully support the role of Big Wolf, it is still difficult to connect the real person with the wolf without acting. Wang Xun dyed a yellow hair and combed his hair back in order to be close to Big Big Wolf in color matching, but his trademark rabbit teeth can’t really show the sinister wolf nature.

Whether McDull, Pleasant Goat or Big Big Wolf, the original cartoons are all positioned in children, so the adapted film and television works are also geared to younger audiences.

However, in contrast to Disney’s "live version" films, the original animation also tells fairy tales, but after being adapted from reality, it attracts audiences of all ages to enter the cinema.

　In recent years, with the gradual maturity of China’s film market, the animation-adapted live-action films are gradually getting rid of the style of being young and young, and the audience has turned from children and teenagers to the adult market, and many excellent quality works have emerged, "Fuck off! Tumor jun, Get My Brother Away, Animal World and other films can achieve a double harvest in word-of-mouth box office. Apart from the star joining, they also benefit from the adaptation of the story.

"Black Cat Sheriff" animation film

In 2015, it was reported that Lu Chuan was going to direct a live-action version of Sheriff Black Cat.

Now nearly five years have passed, and there is no progress in the film. We may expect that China can also make a "real cat version" of Sheriff Black Cat in the future.

In the declining trend of the traditional business model of Internet cafes, there are always people who are unwilling to lag behind, and Internet cafe owners have been trying and exploring the hope of business upgrading. The reporter learned from the insiders that the retail scene in Internet cafes is not only reflected in the behavior mode of "selling goods and selling goods", but more importantly, the top-down thinking changes, transforming the single revenue structure of internet fees into a diversified revenue structure of retail+internet fees+value-added services.

Entering Internet cafes is youth, opening Internet cafes is entrepreneurship, and being a businessman is feelings.

After an exclusive interview with Pi Mo (Hua Ming), the product director of Fanshang Cloud Shopping Headquarters, the reporter learned that Fanshang was founded in 2014 and has been focusing on the research and development of the operating system of commercial non-staple food in Internet cafes for years. The company’s senior executives are all industry veterans who have been "soaked" in the Internet cafe industry for at least ten years. From "soaking" Internet cafes in their youth, to joining the industry to open Internet cafes, and then to setting up Fanshang, they just want to serve the industry, transform the industry, and drive the industry progress and enhance the industry level with products.

At present, the company’s technical team has more than 40 people, many of whom are technical backbones from first-tier Internet manufacturers such as JD.COM and Ali. Pi Mo said: "Some colleagues think that the R&D cost we invested is too high and too large, which is not a wise choice. However, we believe that a good product should not only have a stable and reliable system technical architecture, but also have a convenient and easy-to-use product design. At the same time, we should go deep into practical use to explore user scenarios to improve products. This is not something that can be done by building a running team. "

At the same time, Ma Mo believes: "Although we have invested a lot in the early stage, there is never a shortage of good products. From the market share curve of all merchants, our early investment is completely worthwhile. Good products not only help us win the reputation and market, but also the whole product is the core wealth of all businessmen.

Our founder once opened dozens of Internet cafes in three cities, with losses and gains, and bitterness and sweetness. He often said that it is very meaningful to create a product like Fanshang Yunbu in the industry and help Qian Qian to be the same as his original Internet cafe owners. "

All merchants purchase the Internet cafe industry intensively, leading the retail upgrade.

The reporter learned from the visit of the managers of Internet cafes that the well-known Internet cafes in the industry now generally use the comprehensive SaaS solution purchased by Fanshang Cloud. Fanshang Yunbu has optimized SaaS services for the operating pain points of the Internet cafe industry, making the software system solve problems more accurately.

In the design of SaaS service, Fanshang Cloud Purchase broke the traditional mode of online or stand-alone software, and realized the distributed architecture of localized storage and server data collection through technological innovation, which not only solved the requirements of data security and query analysis, but also ensured the high stability and maintainability of SaaS system.

In terms of functional design, Fanshang Yunbu has developed four front desks based on inventory, activities and accounts, namely, the customer ordering terminal, the bar cashier terminal, the employee ordering terminal and the backstage auditing terminal. Through the classic technical mode of "large, medium and small front desk", Internet cafes can solve all the functions of commodity management in one SaaS stop, from the owner of the Internet cafe to the store manager, cashier and network manager, using a set of products in a unified way, and issuing indicators from the owner of the Internet cafe.

The reporter here is also willing to believe that with the deep cooperation and active innovation in various fields in the industry, the Internet cafe industry will eventually usher in a new world, bring more novel consumption scenes and experiences to consumers, and promote the healthy and effective development of the industry.

1905 movie network news On June 23rd, a statement of the company’s October culture was filmed, which made the sci-fi IP that China movies wanted to climb come into people’s eyes again.

This animation company will become the latest film industry, trying to bring Liu Cixin’s novels to the big screen.

　

It has been 10 years since the film and television rights of the series of novels of Three-body were sold.

　

01

"There will be a month," three-body "movie will be released. By this time, even a trailer was not released, and the movie was definitely problematic. " At the Shanghai International Film Festival in 2016, a film reporter commented like this.

It was an extraordinary year for filmmakers. In the past 2015, the box office of movies in China mainland reached an unprecedented 44 billion. Moviegoers were extremely excited, hot money poured in, and the discussion on IP reached the maximum.

　

Shanghai International Film Festival is also very lively. In two weeks, 100 film companies were announced; Five private companies have released films; There are dozens of press conferences waiting for media reports every day. Even Ang Lee, who rarely appeared in the mainland, came to Shanghai to sit with celebrities such as Yu Dong and Xú Zhēng to discuss the future of China’s film industry.

On June 15th, the film festival entered the fifth day, and the media’s interest slowly shifted from the film festival to the "Three-body" which will be released one month later. News began to come out that the post-production of "Three-body" has not yet been completed, and it will be considered to withdraw from the summer.

　

Rumors are getting worse. At that time, it was reported that the quality of "Three-body" was so poor that the materials could not be used at all, and Kong Ergou, CEO of Youzu Film Industry, had left his job and the project stopped. Two days later, on June 17th, director Panpan Zhang and producer Kong Ergou spoke on social media one after another, denying the rumors and saying that they would increase the budget for the later period of the film.

　

The rumors subsided for the time being, but the movie "Three-body" was completely lost. It was not until April 2020 that the annual financial report of Light Media revealed that the new "Three-body" film had entered the early development stage.

　

This wait is another four years.

　

02

Unlike most people who sold their film and television adaptation rights when the market was hot, Liu Cixin sold the adaptation rights of several novels early, including Three-body, which was bought by China Film and Panpan Zhang. It was sold around 2010, and it is said that it only sold less than 100,000 yuan.

　

In 2013, Panpan Zhang used his own company, Beijing Baixingshe Culture Development Co., Ltd., to submit an application for film production and filing, and the screenwriter was Song Chunyu who worked with him.

　

During this period of time, Panpan Zhang has been looking for investors to join. It is said that one of his requirements is to be a director himself, but Panpan Zhang has only been granted the right of adaptation for five years. This also means that if you want to be the director of "Three-body", the project must land in 2015.

　

Finally, it was Kong Ergou’s Youzu film industry that decided to invest. At that time, the Youzu film industry was still a newcomer in the circle. Panpan Zhang wanted to be the director of "Three-body", and Youzu hoped to make the company a leader in the domestic industry through movies. Both sides have their own worries, but they hit it off.

　

In March 2015, the film was officially started, and it was finished in August of the same year. In November, 2015, Youzu Film held a rough-cut film viewing meeting.

　

03

But this has not been a smooth year. After the filming of "Three-body" started, in May 2015, Xiao Fei, the vice president, left his job, only half a year before he joined the Youzu. Then Xiao Fei founded Upward Film. In November, another vice president, Yang Lu, left and founded Yuanli Film.

　

Before Kong Ergou, Han Wei, who founded Xiyi Film, also briefly served as CEO of Youzu Film. An insider once said that one of the reasons why Han Wei left Youzu was that she could not handle the mess left by Three-body Film.

　

During that time, four executives left their jobs within half a year, and two CEOs changed. There were more than 30 people left in the Youzu film industry, which once had more than 120 employees, and the official account was not managed because of the departure of the Xuanfa team.

　

Even though the personnel changes of tourists are so ups and downs, Kong Ergou and Panpan Zhang still insist on making Three-body, after all, it is a big project with an investment of 200 million yuan.

　

Someone once recalled to the media the scene of the film festival in 2015: there were two versions at the film festival, one was edited by Panpan Zhang himself, and the other was edited by Gao Qunshu, because he was also the chief content officer of the tourist film industry at that time.

Panpan Zhang’s version was supported at the film conference organized by Enlight Pictures. Gao Jun, who was deeply involved in the production of "Three-body", once told the media that after watching the film, the director’s dominant position was re-established. At the same time, he also revealed that this version of "Three-body", the participation ratio of Light Film Industry is 15%-20%.

　

04

Before leaving his post, Yang Lu used to be the general planner of the film "Three-body". He once said that many people were not satisfied with the rough cut version, but after all, it was the most original version with no special effects and no good narrative.

　

Director Lu Chuan also appeared at the film conference. When confronted with the media’s verification, he just said, "I just helped my friends make suggestions and participated in several conferences. After all, I have made some visual effects films, and I still have some gain and loss experience in this respect. I will give some basic suggestions from the perspective of creation to avoid detours." Did not disclose who voted for it.

Being supported does not mean that the progress of "Three-body" will continue smoothly. Many subsequent controversies revolved around the later special effects. Yang Lu once revealed that VHQ had been involved as a cooperative special effects company when the film started shooting, and made some digital previews and process control for the film.

　

However, in June 2016, a person familiar with the matter suddenly revealed that VHQ had withdrawn and the special effects company was replaced by four other companies. Panpan Zhang is also considered inexperienced, and his understanding of special effects is still in the basic stage.

But Kong Ergou obviously hopes that the film can appear in front of the audience as soon as possible. In November 2016, he announced that the film would be released within one year. By July 2017, "Three-body" was still in the late stage of special effects in his mouth. But since then, people seem to forget the existence of this film.

　

In 2019, when The Wandering Earth was released, fans suddenly remembered "Three-body" and left messages under Kong Ergou’s social account. After two years, he wrote this passage:

　

"Wandering earth is so wonderful that I don’t know how to describe it in words. After watching it yesterday, I cried and sat in the cinema until the last line of subtitles came out. I deeply feel guilty and ashamed for the recklessness and ignorance of starting the "three-body" project five years ago. Come on, China science fiction! Sooner or later, stand on the top of the world! ! … I am a seventy-two martyr in Huanghuagang. "

The implication is that it seems that this film "Three-body" directed by Panpan Zhang has been abandoned and will not meet the audience again.

　

05

Compared with 2016, today’s China film industry is already a different look. Among them, many films that rushed to establish projects and wanted to earn box office through IP and traffic have been smashed. Chinese blockbusters began to appear, and realistic themes regained the attention of the audience.

　

On the one hand, there is a growing demand for good movies in the market. On the other hand, the industry began to have a stronger ability to promote the film industry to become more and more perfect.

　

When pathfinders explore the ceiling of genre films upwards, they also leave experience and direction for future travelers.

As a result, a new version of the "Three-body" movie will appear. Tian Xiaopeng, the director who filmed The Return of the Great Sage on the Journey to the West, took over this difficult baton.

　

It has a similar corporate background to the old version of "Three-body" movies, and the cooperative companies behind the new version of "Three-body" are still tourists and light. A person familiar with the matter told us that the new version of "Three-body" will be re-established, giving up the old materials and starting from a new starting point.

　

The story of the film "Three-body" is just a way for China’s films to squeeze out water and eliminate bubbles. With the weight of "Three-body" in the hearts of sci-fi fans and the sensation caused by sci-fi genre among fans, this new finished product will still attract much attention in the end.

　

For the narrative of the development of China’s film industry, The Wandering Earth is responsible for what the audience wants to see from scratch. Now, the plot of farmland may fall on "Three-body".

This road may not be easy to walk, but as long as the filmmakers are on this road, the audience will walk with them on this road.

Search engines make it easy for us to find information on the internet. As long as we enter keywords, links related to them will appear. Of course, the next thing will be more troublesome. You need to browse through multiple links to find the one you want.

In order to improve the search efficiency, someone has made an aggregate search tool, Mr.Otter, whose function is to allow you to search directionally in some websites and find the information you want faster. How exactly is it achieved? Let Geekchoice (WeChat: GeekChoice) introduce it to you.

See the download address at the end of the article.

There are many vertical websites in Mr.Otter, which are aggregated according to categories, including image search, news information, e-commerce shopping … When you need to search for something, you don’t need to browse one by one from the search results, but directly enter keywords and select the website classification.

Take wireless headphones as an example. Enter "wireless headphones" in the search box, and when you switch to "information-technology", you can view the evaluation of technology media. When switching to "consumption-domestic", you can check the price in the e-commerce website; Switch to "Picture-Photo" to view the photos of the wireless headset.

This is equivalent to a targeted search in a certain type of website, as long as you enter the keyword once and then switch the source of the result. Websites in Mr.Otter can be added and classified by custom. You need to enter the name and address of the website, and the writing method of the inquiry address should be filled in as prompted.

With the custom function, you can create your own aggregate search tool. When we searched for something before, we mainly browsed several fixed websites. In order to save trouble, we collected these commonly used websites as bookmarks at most, but we still need to fill them in one by one when searching. Mr.Otter makes it easy, and it goes deep into every vertical website, allowing you to go directly with one click.

With so many websites, sometimes you may not be able to read them. You can save the articles you want to read first and click "Read them later".

To meet the needs of image search, Mr.Otter also made an "atlas mode", which will display the images of the current website after clicking the switch. There is a certain screening mechanism, and pictures that are too small and unclear will not be displayed. When you encounter pictures that look good, you can right-click to collect them, and Mr.Otter will automatically save them to a local location.

By the way, Mr.Otter also supports selecting text collection by "right-clicking-collecting text".

There are many intimate details in Mr.Otter, such as keeping recent historical keywords in the search box, and prompting "refer to English" when inputting Chinese, which is convenient for searching in foreign websites.

In a word, the purpose of Mr.Otter is to make your search more efficient. At present, there are not many functions of the software, and some places need to be supplemented. For example, the collection can’t be classified, and the gesture of sliding left and right can’t be used in the webpage. I hope I can add it later. If you are tired of opening several same websites in search results at a time, it is better to aggregate them with Mr.Otter, with one click.
