Since April, the weather has warmed up and the popularity of major parks has gradually increased, while uncivilized behaviors such as climbing flowers and trees and littering have also increased. Just past the Qingming small holiday, the Beijing Park Management Center issued a prescription.

　　The relevant person in charge said that he is studying and formulating a "blacklist of parks" system. In the future, it is planned to use technical defense means such as "face recognition" to take certain restrictions on those uncivilized tourists who have repeatedly discouraged ineffective and destroyed cultural relics.

　　The Summer Palace

　　Half a day to discourage five or six illegal fishing wild swimmers from bringing their own ladders over the fence.

　　In the Summer Palace in spring, while most tourists are intoxicated by the birds and flowers, some people are indifferent to the beautiful scenery around them. There is a lake on the northwest side of Yudai Bridge. At two o’clock in the afternoon, a man dressed in white paced back and forth by the lake, staring at the lake, as if looking for something. After a while, he found the "target" and took out a slingshot from his pocket and fired it into the water, but it missed. It turned out that he was fishing with a slingshot.

　　In 20 minutes, the man walked half a circle along the shore of the lake, during which he tried several slingshots to shoot, but nothing was gained. On the way, the man also met a colleague, and the two exchanged experiences in fishing and fishing. During the whole process, there were no park security personnel passing by.

　　In fact, this is not because security personnel are lazy. While the man in white was fishing, Lao Zhang, the inspector in charge of this area, was discouraging fishing tourists by another lake. Since the inspection in the morning, Lao Zhang has discouraged five or six illegal fishing behaviors.

　　On the spot when discouraged, most fishermen would put away their fishing rods to show that they would leave, but in a short time, Lao Zhang found that they had changed places and caught fish again. "It’s not bad that you can change places, and some people don’t leave at all, and their attitude is still very poor."

　　Lao Zhang said that he had just heard about the news that the municipal parks would establish a "blacklist for visiting gardens". In his view, if this system can really be implemented, it is undoubtedly a good thing for frontline inspectors. "In fact, there are only a few fishermen. Every day, I know several of them."

　　In Article 56 of the Regulations of Beijing Parks, there is a clear penalty for "fishing in non-fishing areas", which is "a fine from 20 yuan to 50 yuan". However, in the actual operation process, because the park inspectors do not have the power to enforce the law, Lao Zhang can only try to "dissuade and persuade" offenders. This lack of management has also led to the offenders’ repeated education. In Lao Zhang’s view, if the fine is difficult to achieve, at least relevant regulations should be formulated so that inspectors can temporarily detain the illegal fishing tools. "Not only slingshots, but also harpoons, which are also dangerous to people."

　　In the Summer Palace, in addition to illegal anglers, a group of wild swimmers also give managers a headache. At 3: 30 in the afternoon, beside the fence of Tuancheng Lake in the Summer Palace, water inspector Xiao Ma is sitting on the shore on duty. Although no wild swimmers were found today, Pony said that wild swimmers would come every three to five.

　　Tuancheng Lake is an important part of the Middle Route of South-to-North Water Transfer Project. There is a fence more than two meters high by the lake, and the gap is not enough for people to pass through. How do wild swimmers get into the lake? Pony said that wild swimmers often bring their own ladder tools, and two boards are fixed with a nail. When they are put on the fence, people can step over it. What makes Pony even more helpless is that in the process of dissuasion, wild swimmers often fight back with excuses such as "I used to swim here" and have no intention of repentance. Because of the same lack of law enforcement power, Pony can’t punish the wild swimmer except to stop it in time. "He will come again in a few days, so I can only persuade him again."

　　Three children climbed the stone elephant in two minutes and discouraged tourists from feeding it 955 times in two days.

　　Compared with weekends, there are not many tourists in the Beijing Zoo on weekdays, but the Lion Tiger Mountain is still lively. It’s almost four o’clock in the afternoon, and the lions and tigers in the museum are munching on the fresh meat sent by the breeder. Visitors are watching with great interest outside the glass window.

　　Suddenly, a dazzling flash lit up the glass window, and the tiger, who had been burying his head in meat, raised his head warily. The middle-aged female tourist holding the tablet to take pictures hurriedly pressed it twice, and the tiger’s eyes were reflected white on the screen. "Don’t use the flash!" Next to her, another young female tourist couldn’t help but remind her. On the glass window, there is a warning slogan "Do not use the flash".

　　"I can see clearly in the station." In the crowd, a little girl was carried into the windowsill in the armrest by an adult, and her hands pressed against the glass to feel the close contact with the tiger. On the other side, a child less than two years old was also held on the windowsill, and the young father knocked on the glass from time to time, trying to attract the lion’s attention. In front of him, the warning slogan "Don’t knock on the glass" became an embarrassing display.

　　Outside the elephant hall, the lifelike elephant stone carving also attracted many tourists to stop and remember. A little girl with pigtails came running excitedly. With the help of the old man, she quickly climbed onto the stone carving, holding the rolled elephant nose in both hands, holding the elephant’s ears in her legs and smiling at her mother who took pictures with her mobile phone not far away. The little girl who was still wanting more pointed to another elephant stone carving lying on the ground, and stood up on the elephant’s back with vigorous skill. Perhaps because it is relatively low and easy to climb, this stone carving is particularly popular. In just two minutes, three children climbed it.

　　"It seems that climbing is not allowed here." A little girl in red pointed to the "Don’t climb" sign on the ground and whispered, but most tourists obviously didn’t notice it.

　　In fact, what worries zoo staff is the feeding of tourists. At the ticket offices and tourist service centers on both sides of the gate, eye-catching signs of "start with me and care for animals, please don’t feed them" are hung. As soon as I entered the door, on the exhibition board with the theme of "Caring for animals, please don’t feed them", there were cartoons of giant pandas, monkeys and other animals being sent to the hospital after eating and feeding food. Walking in the park, you can see the message "Do not feed animals" everywhere. Next to the African Animal Area, it is also specially explained that carrots, apples and other foods will be fed quantitatively every day, and excessive intake of animals will affect health, while foods such as ice cream and candy cannot be decomposed by microorganisms in the digestive tract of zebras, which will lead to indigestion.

　　Even so, the situation of feeding is still repeated. According to the official website of Beijing Zoo, since the launch of the Volunteer Service Dedication Month with the theme of "Civilized Garden, I’m in Action" on March 25th, party member, league members and workers’ unions of all the party branches in the park have been wearing volunteer clothes and conducting dissuasion and inspection at the key feeding points of zebra, deer park, alpaca, monkey mountain, Woong San and waterfowl lake every weekend during the peak garden hours. On March 25th and 26th alone, tourists were discouraged from feeding for 955 times.

　　Relevant laws are seriously lagging behind and need to be revised urgently.

　　“‘ Park blacklist ’ The original intention of the system is good. I hope to guide civilized gardens in this way. There have been similar practices before. " Liu Simin, director of the Tourism Research Institute of the Cultural and Creative Industry Research Center of Beijing Foreign Studies University, said that in May 2016, the former National Tourism Administration revised and formed the Interim Measures of the National Tourism Administration on the Management of Uncivilized Behavior Records of Tourists based on the previously issued Interim Measures of the National Tourism Administration. In September of the same year, the Interim Measures for the Administration of Records of Uncivilized Tourism Behavior in Beijing came into effect and was regarded as a local version of the "blacklist" system for tourism.

　　Once on the "blacklist", the names, genders, places of origin and other information of the parties involved in uncivilized behavior will be published at the same time on the websites of Beijing Tourism Industry Credit Information Network, Credit Beijing, and the special page "Exposure Desk" of Capital Civilization Network according to the information retention period, and reported to the National Tourism Administration. In addition, depending on the circumstances, it is necessary to inform the tourism industry associations, travel agencies, A-level scenic spots and star-rated hotels through the internal information platform, and "uncivilized tourists" will face joint disciplinary measures.

　　"In the specific implementation, there are still many details that need attention." Liu Simin pointed out, "For example ‘ Many times ’ How to define and which behaviors count ‘ Bad ’ , there must be clear standards, if ‘ Blacklist ’ Just as an exposure list, it has limited binding force on tourists, but if it is to be linked to the credit information system and take certain restrictive measures to truly exert its effectiveness, it is necessary to seek legal support. "

　　In Liu Simin’s view, many existing relevant laws were formulated before the arrival of the mass tourism era, and there is a serious lag. The Tourism Law should be modified adaptively, or relevant implementation rules should be formulated to make the management of uncivilized behavior have laws to follow. "Compared with the introduction of rules and regulations by the administrative department, legal perfection is more conducive to improving the degree of rigor and standardization, ensuring operability, and forming a normalization mechanism."

　　In addition, Liu Simin also talked about strengthening education and guidance. "Civilized tourism itself cannot be achieved overnight, and it takes a long time to accumulate. In recent years, our garden order has made great progress, but there are still some people who are lagging behind. It is necessary to incorporate the content of civilized tourism into family, school and social education, and at the same time increase publicity to improve the quality of the whole people.

"The declaration of martyrs for Zhou Rongjiu, a famous anti-Japanese hero from Qinglong Mountain in Naiman Banner, has finally succeeded …" Recently, the People’s Government of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region ratified Zhou Rongjiu as a martyr. The news came that the most exciting person may be Zhao Dianwu, an expert on the war of resistance in Inner Mongolia. Then, what is the story behind the anti-Japanese hero Zhou Rongjiu being chased as a martyr?

Portrait of Zhou Rongjiu

Get acquainted with books and walk in the heart.

"When I was a child, my father often talked about how the Japanese burned and looted in their hometown of Beipiao Daheishan, and how my grandparents survived the bombing by enemy planes and fled their homes to Aohan Banner. This became an unforgettable memory of my childhood. There is also a famous anti-Japanese hero in my hometown-He Sheng, who is a subordinate of the famous anti-Japanese hero Zhou Rongjiu. He Sheng personally shot and killed the Japanese devils in Naiman Banner to defend Rongzhi on the’ Tai Shang Huang’ Mountain. Later, I learned that the barbaric atrocities of the Japanese in my hometown were aimed at shocking the anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians and clearing the anti-Japanese national salvation army led by Zhou Rongjiu, which made me always full of deep respect for Zhou Rongjiu. " Zhao Dianwu told reporters that in 1935, Zhou Rongjiu led his troops to capture the Eight Immortals Tube where the pseudo Naiman Banner was located, which was a sensation. Over the years, authoritative books on the history of anti-Japanese war and revolutionary history have fully affirmed Zhou Rongjiu’s anti-Japanese exploits.

In 2014, Zhao Dianwu had a strong desire after attending the review meeting of the manuscript of the History of the Anti-Japanese War in Inner Mongolia: he had the opportunity to promote the declaration of martyrs for the anti-Japanese hero Zhou Rongjiu. At that time, he contacted some people, but there was no breakthrough, and the matter was put on hold. In 2019, Zhao Dianwu saw an investigation record about Zhou Rongjiu’s sacrifice. Witnesses told him that before he was killed, he lambasted the traitors who rounded him up, and that working for the Japanese was "Chinese without conscience" and "where is the humanity of Chinese". Zhao Dianwu was deeply moved.

"I seem to see the situation before his heroic sacrifice. From an early age, we were taught in the text to say,’ We are Chinese, and we should love our motherland’. We should be like Zhou Rongjiu, an anti-Japanese hero, to be a conscientious Chinese, and we should have the human feelings of Chinese. I can’t wait any longer, taking advantage of the summer vacation to make an investigation in the hometown of anti-Japanese hero Zhou Rongjiu. " Promoting the declaration of martyrs for the anti-Japanese hero Zhou Rongjiu has become Zhao Dianwu’s biggest concern.

When Zhao Dianwu first set foot on the hero’s hometown, he was deeply shocked. Zhou Rongjiu is a hero in the local area, helping the poor and helping the poor, eliminating violence and calming down, and his folk reputation is particularly good. "His family has a earthen fence and two forts, which shows that his family’s economic conditions are very good. If he chooses to ignore the national righteousness, he can live a comfortable life. However, he is a bloody and patriotic Chinese. He is unwilling to be conquered people. He can’t stand the arrogance and cruel rule of the Japanese devils. He angrily rises up and launches armed resistance against Japan, which is deeply admired. " Zhao Dianwu told reporters about his experience of approaching Zhou Rongjiu. Since then, "Zhou Rongjiu" has changed from a name to a real, flesh-and-blood hero in his heart.

The Report of Zhou Rongjiu’s Sacrifice in Frontier News in 1936

Heroes are famous everywhere.

"The process of declaring martyrs is also a process of in-depth study and approaching heroes, and there are many important discoveries and gains. For example, his name used to be called Zhou Rongjiu or Zhou Rongjiu. This time, through the collection of historical materials of the enemy and puppet troops, it was found that the Japanese army called it Zhou Yongjiu at that time, even the Japanese war criminals who participated in the pursuit of him wrote in the later confession materials, showing his prestige and the deep blow to the Japanese aggressors. " Zhao Dianwu said.

Originally known as Zhou Rong, Zhou Rongjiu was born on March 11th, 1896 in a poor peasant family in Zhangzitun, Henan Province, Yamenyingzi (now Qinglong Mountain Town), the first district of Naiman Banner. He is a burly man with extraordinary physical strength. He is willing to endure hardships and act bravely, which not only improves his family, but also makes many friends. In addition, he later developed a courage in his greenwood career in the paddock, which made him famous for his double guns. Therefore, Zhou Rongjiu became a company commander in the Northeast Army. Soon, his unit was reorganized into Fuxin local security team, and he served as the battalion chief.

After the "September 18th Incident", in just a few months, the Northeast fell. Zhou Rongjiu witnessed the Japanese aggressors and traitors bullying and cruel oppression and plunder of Chinese, and was very resentful. He hated the Kuomintang government’s policy of non-resistance, refused to be transferred to Shanhaiguan Pass with the troops, left the troops in anger and returned to his hometown.

In the spring of 1935, Zhou Rongjiu and his second brother, Zhou Gui, secretly killed two Japanese who bullied the people and acted recklessly, knowing that they would be pursued and retaliated, so he decided to rise up.

On the morning of July 23rd, 1935, Zhou Rongjiu led the anti-Manchu Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army to attack the Eight Immortals Tube, where the puppet Naiman Banner Office was located. After more than four hours of bloody fighting, he finally conquered the Eight Immortals Tube and killed the counselor Guan Shan Shou Rongzhi, the instructor Fujikawa Fukuro, and the inspector Nakagen. During the battle, they also captured Sasaki Tadashi Taro, a heinous Japanese agency official, and hung him in the Cross Street Courtyard, where he was executed after holding a mass meeting. Seven Japanese aggressors were killed in this battle, and all the guards of the puppet government and the police surrendered except the escapees, seized a small steel gun and more than 70 long and short guns, and burned the Naiman Banner government office …

Zhou Rongjiu’s Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army captured the Eight Immortals Tube, the political center of Naiman Banner, under the Japanese aggressors’ noses, and executed all the Japanese aggressors in charge. This was the Eight Immortals Tube incident that shocked the headquarters of the Japanese Kwantung Army and the top of the puppet Manchukuo. The Japanese aggressors became angry from embarrassment, regarded Zhou Rongjiu as a menace, mobilized heavy troops to pursue the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, pursued Zhou Rongjiu’s family, and burned down his house in Zhangzi, Henan.

In view of the crazy revenge of the Japanese puppet troops, Zhou Rongjiu led his troops to Beipiao area to join forces with the anti-Japanese armed forces led by Luan Tianlin. Two anti-Japanese teams joined forces in one place, which was a great shock. Later, they joined forces with the volunteers led by the Communist party member senior cadres and fought side by side in the area of Daheishan, dealing a heavy blow to the enemy.

In October 1935, the Japanese aggressors began to launch an "autumn crusade" against the Daheishan region. In dealing with the situation, Zhou Rongjiu adopted guerrilla tactics and constantly dealt a heavy blow to the enemy.

In order to completely destroy Zhou Rongjiu’s anti-Japanese national salvation army, the Japanese invaders set up a crusade team to pursue it, and at the same time strictly ordered all localities to chase and intercept it. The officers and men of the National Salvation Army kept fighting with their pursuers in Naiman, Kulun, Fuxin, Aohan, Arukerqin and Onniut.

On the morning of July 10, 1936, Zhou Rongjiu, who fought in Wulanmutu Mountain in northern Fuxin, was unfortunately surrounded by the enemy. Zhou Rongjiu refused to surrender, swore at the enemy and was shot on the bluestone in the western depression of Wulanmutu. In order to win credit, reward and shock the anti-Japanese forces, the enemy brutally cut off his head and hung it on the willow tree in Ertuban Street for public display. This famous anti-Japanese hero, regarded by the Japanese invaders as "the famous anti-Manchu bandit leader in Jehol Province", shed his last drop of blood to resist foreign aggression.

Archives prove anti-Japanese historical facts

"This matter lasted for two years, but it did not include the previous brewing time." Talking about the process of declaring martyrs for anti-Japanese hero Zhou Rongjiu, Zhao Dianwu told reporters. To declare a martyr, you need first-hand archives that can prove the circumstances of the victim’s sacrifice, and the materials must be excellent. General literature and history materials and historical records cannot be used as evidence.

With the assistance of Shi Zhiban, a cadre in Naiman Banner, Zhao Dianwu made a systematic investigation in Zhou Rongjiu’s hometown, and went to Wulanmutushan, Fuxin, where the hero died, to conduct on-the-spot investigation and learn from the villagers. During the investigation in Naiman Banner, many people didn’t know the whereabouts of Zhou Rongjiu’s descendants, so he had to submit an application for ratification of martyrs to the competent authorities as a citizen of the place where the incident occurred. In addition, he also entrusted friends from all walks of life from Beijing to Shanghai and then to Changchun to look for first-hand information from books and archives institutions like a needle in a haystack. He also struggled to find the hero’s descendants who had long been considered unaccounted for, but unfortunately, when the hero’s only granddaughter, 87-year-old Zhou Yanjun, was found, she was already on her deathbed. Seven days later, Zhou Yanjun died and failed to see the day when she successfully declared a martyr for her grandfather.

"After rigorous textual research and painstaking collection, the materials provided are excellent, passed the examination of Naiman Banner, Tongliao City and Autonomous Region governments and corresponding competent departments, and were put on record by the Department of Veterans Affairs." Zhao Dianwu said.(Text/Northern New Newspaper Zhengbei Net reporter Ma Lixia)(The pictures are all provided by Zhao Dianwu)

　Editor’s note:On September 16th, American playwright edward ablee died at his home in Montauk, New York, at the age of 88. Albee won the Pulitzer Prize for Best Drama for three times and the Tony Prize for Best Drama for two times. He is the greatest playwright in the United States after Eugene O ‘Neill, tennessee williams and arthur miller.

Many of Albee’s plays have been translated and introduced into China. In 2013, Sanhui Books and Xinxing Publishing House published The Goat: Albue’s Plays, which included three representative plays. This article is a reading guide written by Hu Kaiqi, the translator of this book, for three plays. It is authorized by Sanhui Books to be used by The Paper, with some abridgements.

Edward ablee Oriental IC data

Edward Albee is the greatest playwright in the United States after Eugene O ‘Neill, tennessee williams and arthur miller, and is the flag of serious drama in contemporary America and even the world. Since The Zoo Story was first staged in the late 1950s, Albee’s plays have continuously shocked the American theater. Up to now, Albee has created more than 30 plays, and won three Pulitzer Prize for Best Drama, two Tony Prize for Best Drama, three Best Drama Literature Awards and four Lifetime Achievement Awards. His masterpieces include The Zoo Story, The American Dream and Who’s Afraid of Adeline Virginia Woolf? "delicate balance", "seascape", "three tall women", "goat or who is Sylvia? ","at home in the zoo "and so on.

As a representative of American serious drama, Albee always pays sharp and sober attention to the times and society, and reflects and criticizes the social reality and human existence fearlessly and mercilessly. He once said, "What people see on Broadway is not drama at all, but some mass-produced products, which will only make people intoxicated or sleepy, but not wake up and wake up." His plays are often performed in off broadway and even abroad, and finally returned to Broadway.

Albee’s works are deeply influenced by naturalism, surrealism, symbolism, absurd drama and other schools, but his exploration and modernity are mainly reflected in the connotation and thought of his works. As he said: "… the writer’s responsibility is to be an extraordinary social critic-to show people the true nature of the world and human beings he has seen, and to warn:’ Do you like it? If you don’t like it, change it.’ "

Albee embodies his unique style in the prompts of characters’ dialogues in his plays. For example, in The Goat or Who’s Sylvia? Stevie (honestly) If you are seeing that woman, I think we need to talk. Martin (stop, silent for a long time; Honestly) If I am like that … We will talk. " And "Ross (wow! ) You are in love! " Such hints also appear from time to time in At Home in the Zoo and The Garden of Desire. I kept this kind of Albee-style personalized prompt by literal translation.

Goat: Albee’s Plays

The goat or who is Sylvia in this book? "At Home in the Zoo" and "At Home in the Zoo" were published in Drama Art, and "The Garden of Desire" has been put on the stage of China by China National Theatre, while "Goat or Who is Sylvia? It also premiered in Beijing in 2012.

At Home in the Zoo: Human Isolation and Alienation

In 1958, edward ablee became famous with his first one-act play The Zoo Story (1958), which shocked the western society. This drama, which profoundly shows the alienation, isolation and loneliness of human beings in modern commercial society, has become a world-recognized classic of drama literature in the following half century. This play, originally named Peter and Jerry, was written by Albee in one go within three weeks before his 30th birthday. The author originally cast it on Broadway in new york, but it was rejected by the producer. So The Zoo Story came to Europe, premiered at Berlin Art Festival in September 1959, and began its new york premiere at Provinse Town Theatre in January 1960.

In 2008, Albee surprisingly changed his one-act drama "The Zoo Story" 50 years ago into a two-act drama "At Home at the Zoo" (2009) and staged it in the second theater in off broadway, new york. Shakespeare in the past or neil simon today have rewritten some of their past masterpieces in the form of sequels or prequels, but it is rare to rewrite them in a big way on the stage. Moreover, in the past half century, The Zoo Story is one of the most famous and frequently performed American plays in the world.

This great play about the murder scene between a gentleman Peter and a poor man Jerry in new york Central Park has always been a classic textbook for drama students. Over the years, countless commentators have discussed and analyzed Albee’s profound exposure of human alienation in the mid-20th century. Although he also wrote Who’s Afraid of Adeline Virginia Woolf? Three Tall Women, Delicate Balance and Goat or Who’s Sylvia? "and other thirty plays, but the shock and passion of" Zoo Story "is unique.

In fact, Albee’s idea of rewriting The Zoo Story has a long history. This play, which has become a world classic, was once performed as a short play with Beckett’s The Last Tape of klapp and other short plays. Albee has always regretted this. In the late 1990s, 40 years after The Zoo Story appeared, Albee planned to add a scene for Peter. "There is some imbalance, and Jerry kept telling in the play that Peter had no time to talk. I hope to know Peter better. "

Albee doesn’t agree with playwrights to rewrite their previous plays drastically. He said, "It can’t be rewritten. Times have changed and people are not the same." So he didn’t make a big move on The Zoo Story, but just wrote At Home as the first act of the whole play. He even mentioned that when he conceived the Zoo Story in 1958, he visited Peter and Anna and their living room. "I just couldn’t write this scene at that time."

Albiyuan traced his initial creative impulse: "I know Anna so well because I know what Peter’s wife should look like." He felt that At Home seemed to flow from his heart, and he just showed the relationship between the couple naturally. As a solemn and humorous study of mediocre civilization, At Home shows the conversation between a loving couple in today’s society.

At the beginning of the first act of At Home in the Zoo, just after noon on Sunday, in a Danish modern living room in an apartment building in East Seventies Street, Manhattan, two or three avenues away from Central Park, a peaceful and elegant middle-aged gentleman husband Peter and his dignified and quiet wife Anna appeared. Two silent daughters are upstairs, and Peter is sitting and reviewing an extremely important and boring textbook that has never been published by their publishing company.

Anna walked out of the kitchen and casually declared, "We should talk." So they talked about family chores: fireplace, children, microwave oven, cats, parrots, and then talked about each other’s sleeping state and Anna’s habit of night outing before dawn. Anna told puzzled Peter that she wanted to have her breasts removed to prevent cancer. The two chatted with each other jokingly about death, love and people’s madness, and also associated with "thinking about thinking about something."

With Anna’s outspokenness, Peter said carefully that he thought his penis was "shrinking". Anna suppressed her smile to show sympathy. She knew that sex and sexual topics were not Peter’s strong points, and she called him a "gentleman". They talked about circumcision and clitoris … Then the conversation turned back to why Anna proposed to talk. During the conversation, they suddenly found that some terrible unspeakable thing threatened their quiet life; They found each other unable to pour out their deepest fears.

Peter recalled the details of violent sex with a girl when he was drunk in college. That crazy sex ended in blood dripping and pain and shame, so Peter was always careful in his subsequent sex for fear of hurting others. During the conversation, Anna slapped Peter in the face and immediately hugged him and kissed him passionately. She said that she just wanted to surprise him with suspense. In laughter, they hoped that a sudden tornado would completely destroy their safe and orderly family life. Then, the two said goodbye to "I love you". Anna went to the kitchen, and Peter went to Central Park with the boring textbook.

The second act of At Home in the Zoo is the original Zoo Story. Albee didn’t rewrite this scene, only made some abridgements, so the text is the same as his original 1999 version. At the beginning of the second act, Peter who came to Central Park was sitting on a bench reading. Then, a disheveled man in his thirties, Jerry, appeared. Depressed-looking Jerry insisted on talking to Peter. Jerry lives in a cubicle on the top floor of an old building on Manhattan’s Upper West Side. He has no friends or relatives and is alone. He told about his homosexual experiences in adolescence and his life as a prostitute now. Peter was very embarrassed by his dark and filthy candor. In addition to satisfying the lust of the slutty and dirty landlady, Jerry has to deal with the landlady’s "black monster" dog that keeps chasing him. After repeatedly failing to please the evil dog, he poisoned it. The bad dog survived and ignored Jerry, so there was only indifference between man and dog. Jerry can’t communicate with dogs and people.

Because the first scene "At Home" shows the spiritual estrangement and emotional alienation between Peter and his wife, in the second scene, when Jerry frantically tells the loneliness and isolation of his existence in a monologue, Peter is more clearly aware of the distortion, fracture and isolation between himself and Anna. His deep anger, anxiety and despair contributed to the growing conflict between him and Jerry for the park bench, until he angrily held Jerry’s sharp blade to defend himself, until Jerry swooped on the sharp blade and committed suicide.

In the scene of In the Zoo, we have to face the isolation and alienation of people in modern society with fear. In the scene at home, we can only look directly at it painfully: even in a happy family and marriage, isolation and alienation are everywhere. From Peter and Anna’s emotional and spiritual indifference to Jerry’s isolated and absurd living condition, bloody suicide in the park seems to be the inevitable outcome. As you can imagine, when Peter fled the park and ran home like a wounded beast, when Anna tried to comfort him, Jerry’s suicide caused the peaceful world around them to collapse. The couple had hoped for waves and ripples in a peaceful life, but the revenge of bad luck came unexpectedly.

Stills of "At Home in the Zoo"

In the society of vicious expansion of modern industrial civilization, people are gradually losing their humanity and personality. When people are alienated by materials, interpersonal relationships are also alienated. In the noisy, complicated and almost crazy modern city, people are like a group of worker ants, crawling repeatedly every day. People think, people get tired, and people get lost. People pursue material things, but they are alienated by them after all. On the park bench in At Home in the Zoo, Peter sits at one end and Jerry sits at the other, separated by a barrier, just like Jerry mentioned the zoo-"all animals are separated". This sense of isolation is the living form of human beings in today’s society, and it is also one of the phenomena of material alienation. Crazy industrial civilization has not made human beings truly "civilized", on the contrary, it has made human beings move from civilization to barbarism, just like the two couples who bite each other in the novel "Slaughter the God" by the French playwright Jasmina Razer. The lonely individuals of Peter, Anna and Jerry are the portrayal of everyone in today’s society. The pain of each individual is also the pain of the whole mankind.

"At Home in the Zoo" makes the audience realize the threat hidden in the survival of every modern person. If "At Home" is a slap in people’s face and "At the Zoo" is a punch in people’s abdomen, you can imagine the horror and confusion of the theater fans gasping. For the two plays written 50 years apart, Albee insists that they are a whole. "This is a complete play. Peter’s experience in the first act contributed to the conflict between him and Jerry in the second act. The completeness and profundity of this two-act drama far exceeds the one-act Zoo Story. "

The Zoo Story has been staged many times in China, and it was also performed at Nanluoguxiang Drama Festival in May 2011. For the audience who are used to The Zoo Story, At Home in the Zoo is more like two independent dramas. It’s just as well. The emotional ice in the first act and the emotional fire in the second act do form a clear contrast between them. If at home is regarded as another play by Albee that pays attention to the emotion and ecology of middle-aged couples, it is different from his previous Marriage Drama (1987) and Goat or Who is Sylvia? Compared with the characters in "Peter and Anna", the scene of Peter and Anna can go deeper into the hearts of the audience.

It is worth mentioning that in November, 2011, another absurd family drama "Sex and the Garden" by Albee was also put on the stage in Beijing by China National Theatre.

At Home in the Zoo shows us the changes of Albee’s writing style in the past 50 years. Albee is 80 years old, but her creativity is still strong. "In the Zoo" 50 years ago was full of anger and youthful agitation; After 50 years, At Home is thoughtful and wise, with philosopher’s feelings. The former is angry, the latter is quiet. Whether it is pain or sorrow, whether it is sentimentality or cynicism, this talented playwright has always been deeply concerned about the ups and downs of human destiny and the decline of modern civilization.

Goat or Who is Sylvia? Notes on the definition of a tragedy

The absurd family tragedy of contemporary American society, Goat or Who is Sylvia? 》（The Goat or Who is Sylvia? , 2002) won several drama awards such as Tony’s best drama in 2002. Goat or Who is Sylvia? In March 2002, it premiered at the John Goolden Theatre on Broadway, with a total of 309 performances. In 2004, the London edition of Goat or Who is Sylvia? The British premiere began again. "Who’s Sylvia" in the title of this play is taken from the song "Who’s Sylvia?" by Proteus in Shakespeare’s Two Gentlemen of Verona. 》。

Martin Gray, the hero of the play, is a typical decent, upright and brilliant architect in American society. He lives an ideal and happy life with his beloved wife and son. In his lucky week, he came to the door three times. In addition to his 50th birthday party, he also won the highest international architectural design award and a huge contract for landmark architectural design. However, when he revealed his unspeakable secrets to his friends in fear-when he had sex with a goat (Sylvia), everything around him-family, affection, life and career fell apart in an instant.

Goat or Who is Sylvia? The challenge to people’s morality lies in how to face the social forbidden zones such as extramarital sex, homosexuality, incest and animal rape in contemporary society, and at the same time, the goat or who is Sylvia? It also conveys the desire of modern people to return to nature. Martin is at the peak of his career and happy in his family life. However, it is conceivable that all kinds of reputation and crazy material civilization in modern society have alienated human beings and overwhelmed Martin. This is why he hates public masks and is obsessed with finding an idyllic land.

The beauty of the country made him linger and forget his worries. Now he fell in love with a goat and had sex with it. On the moral level, this extremely abnormal behavior is shameful, but in human nature, it may be a release under the long-term pressure of alienation. It is the pastoral scenery that returns to nature that awakens Martin’s instinct and primitive desire. Although his choice is shocking, he feels holy, happy and beyond all love …

As far as drama style is concerned, The Goat or Who is Sylvia? "Who’s Afraid of Adeline Virginia Woolf?" Albee won the Tony Award for Best Drama on Broadway 40 years ago. 》（Who is Afraid of Virginia Woolf ? 1962), there is a return to realism: clear plots, concrete scenes and stylized dialogues. As the mainstream writer of American serious drama, Albee’s avant-garde style is more manifested in events and themes than in the form of drama.

Goat or Who is Sylvia? The whole play is divided into three scenes without intermission. The core of the whole play is the fierce confrontation and debate between Martin and Stevie.

The Gothic atmosphere in Albee’s plays, or the surreal dream and its mysterious symbol and deliberate concealment all make critics and audiences feel that the goat in this play is just a symbol and a metaphor, and the bestiality in the play is just the playwright’s literary thinking and exploration of a social concept. But the goat or who is Sylvia? The language is so vivid and touching, and the scene is so realistic that the audience can’t avoid Albee’s deliberate warning: sometimes a goat is a goat.

At the end of the first scene, Martin revealed the secrets of his heart to Ross; When the second scene begins, Stevie has learned the truth from Ross’s letter. Martin’s son Billy immediately fell into confusion and anger; Stevie then fiercely attacked and blamed Martin and asked him to explain this unforgivable behavior. When Martin tried his best to communicate with her and pour out his troubles, Stevie kept interrupting him, making the audience in the theater laugh their heads off. When Martin painfully told her that he loved her as always, Stevie replied coldly, "But I am a human being, I only have two breasts, and I can only walk upright …"

In The Goat or Who Is Sylvia? In an interview before the premiere of new york, Albee said that he hoped to test the audience’s tolerance through this play. He said: "All civilizations have arbitrary norms on their tolerance. This play shows how a family is deeply shaken by an unimaginable event and how they solve this dilemma. I hope that people will give new thoughts on the reasonable direction of their own values. " Undoubtedly, this is also a test of human nature, an extremely complex and deep exploration: the nature of love, the mystery of sex, human empathy and so on.

Albee’s provocative idea is that love, no matter what form, is an undeniable objective existence, and even social norms, cultural customs and personal wishes can’t overwhelm it. Martin can’t defend his behavior, so he can only beg Stevie’s understanding and forgiveness, but he firmly believes that his love for Sylvia is sincere and deep, insisting that the encounter with her is an "epiphany" and "once it happens, there is no retreat". He claimed that his love for Sylvia was essentially the same as his love for Stevie, which was unacceptable and incomprehensible to Stevie.

If love is an abstraction that is not limited by inherent moral values, then human sexual behavior is distinct and concrete, and it inevitably bears moral responsibility. Therefore, in the current concept of human society, the love between Martin and goat is undoubtedly an inherent evil. He thought his love for the goat was "irrelevant to everything", but found that it was related to everything around him.

Goat or Who is Sylvia? The subtitle of the play is "Annotation on the Definition of a Tragedy". Albee pointed out that his allusions originated from the ancient Greek tragedy, and the word "tragedy" originated from the "song of the goat" in ancient Greek. In the first scene, when Ross asked about the strange and secret whistle, Martin coolly called it "the goddess of mercy".

Bentley, a dramatist, wrote in his book Benlly, The life of the Drama: "In tragedy, people are both angels and beasts, and they are fighting." This idea is in "goat or who is Sylvia?" It was echoed in ". Martin said it was the soul, and Stevie insisted on sexual desire. When Stevie pointed out that their dilemma was "You are a wild animal", Martin calmly replied, "I think I am … I think we are all wild animals." Martin admitted that he was "miserable" and "deeply divided", but Stevie couldn’t forgive him. The "goddess of mercy" didn’t appear, only a cavity of revenge anger. "You ruined me, well, God has eyes! I let you destroy it with me! " Goat or Who is Sylvia? The dilemma of human nature in this extreme state presented in "The Tragedy" profoundly completes the annotation of a tragic definition.

At the end of the play, Stevie dragged Sylvia’s body on the stage covered in blood. Love, sympathy and understanding disappeared, leaving only hatred, revenge and misunderstanding. Looking at the goat lying in a pool of blood, Martin looked up and wailed the heartbreaking fate of him and Sylvia. He could only cry, "Does no one understand this? Why can’t anyone understand … I’m lonely … so … lonely! " At this moment, Martin Gray is like the ghost of Oedipus-painfully blinding himself, leaving the warmth and sympathy of the world forever and disappearing into the wilderness.

Edward ablee’s The Garden of Desire

A Garden of Desire: The Collapse and Degeneration of a Flashy Society

Edward ablee’s "Garden of Desire" was originally named "Everything in the Garden" (1967), and its original author was the famous British playwright Giles Cooper. The play was first performed by the Royal Shakespeare Company in London in March 1962. In December 1966, 48-year-old Cooper died young. In order to commemorate him, the American version of "Garden of Desire" adapted by Albee was staged on Broadway in new york in 1967. Albee’s Garden of Desire satirizes and exposes the hypocritical and greedy American money society, which makes it the most important and controversial one in his adaptation, but it is also the most successful one: the popular comedy Garden of Desire and his best original drama Who is afraid of Adeline Virginia Woolf? "has been put on the screen.

In November, 2011, as the first part of the National Theatre’s "Famous Classics: Desire Trilogy", the Garden of Desire, directed by Han Jie, premiered at the newly-built National Theatre. This black comedy, which reveals the greed for money in contemporary human society, has been playing for a long time in the West, and it is also loved by China audiences in Beijing. In February, 2012, this drama began its second hot performance in national centre for the performing arts. More than ten years ago, the then China Youth Art Theatre moved this play. Nowadays, owning a garden villa has become a dream in people’s hearts, and "Desire Garden" undoubtedly has a profound warning meaning for the current extremely impetuous social mentality of worshipping money.

In Albee’s "Garden of Desire", Jenny and Richard, who live in the garden villa, are struggling to make ends meet, so they can only desperately maintain their dignity; Their good friend, Jack, a rich painter who inherited millions of inheritance, is carefree but lonely, so he always comes to Jenny for emotional comfort. Jack loves Jenny and Richard so much that he is determined to leave his ten million inheritance to the couple after his death. But half a year later, Jenny and Richard made a fortune. It turned out that Jenny was lured by Mrs. Tus and went to Mrs. Tus’s brothel in the city for prostitution without telling Richard. At the subsequent party, Jenny and Richard found that the housewives of their rich neighbors and friends were all "girls" of Mrs. Tus. Jack, who arrived late, recognized Mrs. Tuse at the party, and he was killed …

Compared with the rural story of London in Cooper’s original work, Albee’s Garden of Desire deepens and strengthens the revelation and torture of human nature and living conditions in modern society with a typical American middle-class life scene. For example, in Cooper’s original play, the couple didn’t see books and paintings in their indoor furnishings, while in Albee’s Broadway "Garden of Desire", not only a few oil paintings were hung indoors, but also books were filled on shelves covering a whole wall. This makes the audience have to face up to it: in a money world with moral collapse, intellectuals as social conscience are equally depraved and crazy. This is undoubtedly a mirror of the present China society.

This character, renamed Mrs Tus by Albee, was a Polish Jewish woman who survived the Nazi concentration camp in Cooper’s original play and made a living as a pimp for bored middle-class British housewives. Albee turned her into a headstrong and ruthless businesswoman who organized prostitution in new york, deliberately hiding her life story to highlight her evil symbol. In Cooper’s play, Jenny advertised for a job and attracted Mrs. Tus; In Albee’s play, Jenny’s neighbor girlfriend revealed Jenny’s financial difficulties to Mrs. Tus.

The biggest controversy in this play lies in the unpunished murder in the play. Some critics think that Albee should delete the murder plot in the adaptation, so as not to fall into the murder convention of the structural reasoning play and weaken its social critical significance. Time magazine thinks that murder is "too sensational, as if the corruption and collapse of moral values only mean death". Albee keeps the plot of murder, but unlike Cooper, he hopes that his Garden of Desire is more than just a social drama to explore the moral culture of the middle class in American society. Death in Cooper’s works is a one-dimensional realism, while death in Albee’s works is a symbol.

Albee’s Garden of Desire is no longer an isolated murder story, it reveals the moral and spiritual collapse and degeneration of a flashy society as a whole; It condemned the murder of humanity and humanity in this defeated society. Over the past 50 years, among more than 30 plays created by Albee, four have been adapted: The Garden of Desire, Malcolm, The Sad Cafe Song and Lolita in the 1980s. He once criticized the shoddy adaptation of many screenwriters on the American stage. "Most of these works adapted from European novels and scripts are clumsy, distorted and worthless, but people should not forget that many plays by playwrights Sophocles, Shakespeare, Racine, Giraudoux and Anouilh are their adaptations … Drama adaptation can be a respected profession and a very important artistic act."

Albee believes that successful screenwriters should not only retell and express the story of the original, but also use the original as a springboard to explain their unique views. Just like electra, Sophocles, euripides, Giraudoux and Hoffman Shtal have their own unique forms and contents. Playwrights have their own interpretations of the original, and the story of the original is only a catalyst for their artistic conception. Before Shakespeare’s tragedy King Lear, The History of King Lear was staged in the Elizabethan era. In this early version, King Lear did not go crazy, but returned to the throne two or three years later and died peacefully. If Shakespeare was trapped in the story and thought of the original play, there would be no unparalleled Shakespeare’s tragedy King Lear today.

Recently, Taiwan media revealed that Song Joong Ki’s "The Legend of the New Shu Mountain Swordsman", which was invited by the mainland for 100 million RMB, was ruined due to the "Korean Restriction Order". According to a report by Taiwan Province United News Network on the 5th, on the same day, Blossom Entertainment, a brokerage company owned by Song Joong Ki, came forward to refute the rumor: Blossom said that Song Joong Ki did receive many invitations for mainland works, but no cooperation was confirmed. They had never heard of The Legend of the Swordsman in New Shushan, and did not ask for RMB 100 million.

Recently, cultural exchange or cooperation projects between China and South Korea have been interrupted one after another. Some TV dramas filmed by Korean artists in China were suddenly notified before they were about to air, and some TV dramas originally planned by Korean directors were postponed indefinitely. The market value of Korean entertainment companies has also plummeted. The market value of JYP, CJ, SM and YG has evaporated by a total of 361.5 billion won, or about 2.15 billion yuan.

Since "Descendants of the Sun" became a "national husband" in Asia, Korean star Song Joong Ki has not only been waved by advertisers, but also been strongly invited to star in many TV dramas in China. Earlier, there were rumors that the mainland TV series "The Legend of the Swordsman in the New Shushan Mountain" offered 100 million yuan to invite him to play, but it was ruined because of the recent "Korean restrictions".

Stills of Song Joong Ki’s Descendants of the Sun

On the morning of the 5th, Blossom Entertainment, a company owned by Song Joong Ki, clarified that Song Joong Ki decided not to appear in the play. They had never heard of The Legend of the Swordsman in the New Shushan Mountain, and even did not ask for RMB 100 million: "Song Joong Ki only wants to concentrate on filming at present, and will not accept new works for the time being, which has nothing to do with other events."

Blossom stressed that when Song Joong Ki receives any work, he will put the content of the work first, and will not talk about remuneration first. Song Joong Ki is now concentrating on the film Warship Island, and will not take on other works this year.

In addition, the film "Lies Sicily" co-produced by LEE JOON GI, Han Xing, Ehan Juan and Zhou Dongyu will hold its Beijing premiere on the 7th.

　　The market economy is an economy ruled by law, and counterfeiting and rights protection must also be carried out according to law. Once it crosses the border, any illegal act will be punished by law.

　　

　　Using "eating goods" means applying for a refund and not returning goods, using "getting on the bus" means following others to fight counterfeiting, and using "buying tickets" means giving benefits to leading counterfeiters … It is reported that online professional anti-counterfeiting has formed a gray industrial chain, and some professional anti-counterfeiting people take profit as the purpose, buy fakes for compensation, and recruit apprentices to impart experience.

　　Professional counterfeiting is nothing new. In the 1990s, Wang Hai got double compensation for buying fake, which caused a heated discussion. In recent years, with the rapid development of e-commerce, the main position of professional anti-counterfeiting has quietly shifted, pointing the finger at a large number of online stores, and the scope of anti-counterfeiting has also expanded: it includes obvious faults such as selling fakes and price fraud in stores, as well as nonstandard commodity labels and the use of prohibited advertising words. In reality, a publishing house was reported as false propaganda by professional counterfeiters because of the word "most" in the book promotion language, and an online shop was reported as price fraud by professional counterfeiters because it failed to modify the picture price in time at the end of the promotion.

　　The behavior of knowing and buying fakes is complex, so professional counterfeiting has always been controversial. Undeniably, professional counterfeiting has really played a positive role objectively, which has cracked down on fake and shoddy products and purified the market environment to a certain extent, and is called the "woodpecker" in the market. With the rise of Internet e-commerce platform, online shopping complaints are increasing day by day. Statistics show that in 2018, the national market supervision department accepted a total of 1.682 million online shopping complaints, up 126.2% year-on-year. The complaints were mainly false advertisements, counterfeiting and substandard quality. Professional counterfeiters are familiar with consumer rights protection law, advertising law, e-commerce law and other laws and regulations, and their rights protection efficiency is high, which is beneficial to promoting consumer rights protection to a certain extent.

　　However, after years of development, the negative effects of professional counterfeiting have gradually emerged. The subjective starting point of professional anti-counterfeiting is profit, which is doomed to the limitations of anti-counterfeiting methods. Some people only look for profitable "business" in the choice of anti-counterfeiting objects, usually picking soft persimmons, deliberately looking for loopholes in novice shops, and finding problems requires privacy. Some counterfeiters lack self-discipline, from knowing and buying fakes to making fakes, and even extorting money, for example, erasing the production date of goods with liquid medicine and stuffing their hair into bread with needles. All these have not only dispelled the positive effects of counterfeiting, but also disrupted the normal market order.

　　Online professional counterfeiting, which originated from the improper behavior of merchants in the process of market transactions, will gradually withdraw with the improvement of relevant legal systems and the standardization of market supervision. Safeguarding consumers’ rights and interests and perfecting the system are the fundamental paths. In recent years, from the new revision of consumer rights protection law, the new revision of advertising law to the formal implementation of e-commerce law, from strict law enforcement by regulatory authorities to smooth channels for consumer rights protection, the network of systems for safeguarding consumer rights has become more and more dense. In case of fraud, the specific provisions, such as refund for one loss and compensation for three losses, proof of defective products by merchants, and prohibition of false propaganda, also directly hit the real problems, promote businesses to operate in compliance with the law, and continuously improve consumers’ shopping experience. With the progress of society and the improvement of the system, the space for professional counterfeiting will inevitably be gradually reduced.

　　Nowadays, the rectification mechanism is gradually taking shape in view of the phenomenon of abusing certain clauses in professional counterfeiting claims. For online professional counterfeiters, their profit-making space will be further limited, and their profit-making difficulty will also increase accordingly. Judging from the cases in recent years, whether the identity of professional counterfeiters is protected by the law on the protection of consumers’ rights and interests and whether punitive damages can be obtained can be determined by the court according to the specific circumstances. In fact, some professional counterfeiters were reported by merchants for alleged extortion, and eventually "the plot reversed", which was not worth the candle.

　　Market economy is an economy ruled by law. For professional counterfeiters, anti-counterfeiting and rights protection must also be carried out according to law, and they should not be lucky and speculative. Once you cross the border, any illegal act will be punished by law.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s plan to buy Twitter may not be good news for Twitter employees.

On October 20th, local time, Washington post quoted people familiar with the matter and a document as saying that Musk planned to reduce the number of Twitter employees from 7,500 to more than 2,000 in the next few months.

In other words, Twitter needs to cut nearly 75% of its employees.

The report quoted people familiar with the matter as saying that after months of legal disputes, Musk’s planned acquisition of $44 billion is progressing in an orderly manner and is likely to be completed before October 28.

In a memo to employees after Washington post’s report, Twitter General Counsel Sean Eichette warned employees that as the transaction drew to a close, there were expected to be "a lot of public rumors and speculations". "Since the merger agreement has been put in place, there are no plans to lay off employees throughout the company," he said.

In fact, as early as April this year, Bloomberg quoted people familiar with the matter as saying that Musk had told investors that he planned to lay off Twitter when he first sought funds from the bank.

However, reports in Washington post show that even if the deal between Musk and Twitter fails, the current management of Twitter plans to cut the company’s salary by about $800 million by the end of next year, which means that the company needs to fire nearly a quarter of its employees. At the same time, Twitter also plans to drastically cut its infrastructure spending, including a data center that keeps the website running normally for more than 200 million users who log in every day.

Washington post said that this change may have a significant impact on Twitter’s ability to control harmful content and prevent data security crisis in the future.

Edwin Chen, a data scientist who was in charge of Twitter spam and health indicators, said that millions of Twitter users may immediately feel the impact of such layoffs. He said that although he believes that Twitter currently has too many employees, the layoffs proposed by Musk are unimaginable, which will expose Twitter users to multiple risks such as hacking.

In the third quarter earnings conference call held by Tesla on Wednesday, Musk said that he had paid too much for Twitter: "Although it is obvious that myself and other investors have paid too high a price for Twitter now, in my opinion, the long-term potential of Twitter is one order of magnitude higher than its current value."

According to Washington post, the extent of layoffs exposed this time explains why Twitter executives are eager to sell the company to Musk — — Although Musk’s $44 billion bid is full of "hostility" and keeps swinging in the middle, it is tantamount to a cash check for this troubled social media company.

Months of bidding and a tense legal battle have left Twitter scarred. At present, Twitter is facing serious staff turnover, slow recruitment, project stagnation and stock price fluctuation.

Dan Ives, a financial analyst at Wedbush Securities, said: "It is easy for Musk to acquire Twitter, but the difficult thing is to fix it. Reversing this situation will be an arduous challenge. "

According to Washington post, according to interviews and documents, reshaping Twitter’s workforce is an important part of Musk’s ambition. Musk believes that significantly reducing the size of the company is the first step in implementing the strategy of turning losses into profits, which will then involve introducing more efficient employees and innovations, such as expanding the subscription business, that is, allowing users to pay for exclusive content provided by influential accounts.

Musk had previously told investors that he planned to double his income within three years and triple the number of daily users who watched advertisements in the same period, but he did not elaborate on how to achieve these goals.

However, people familiar with the matter also said that according to Twitter data, subscription may not bring new considerable income, because the users who watch advertisements the most on Twitter are about 1% of the number of users in the United States, which is also the most likely user to join the subscription service. If they start paying monthly, this plan may eat into the most profitable part of Twitter’s current advertising business.

The report also shows that Twitter’s human resources personnel told employees that they did not intend to lay off employees on a large scale, but the document shows that before Musk proposed to acquire the company, there had been a large number of plans to lay off employees and cut infrastructure costs. Then, on the basis of these plans, Musk will first target people with poor performance and then lay off employees at other stages.

According to Nell Minow, a business management expert, Musk may need to "sell" his ambitious plan to potential investors, but the implementation of his plan will face challenges. "He must prove that what will happen next after layoffs? What will he replace (Twitter’s original data security capabilities)? Artificial intelligence? " Nell Minow said.

As of the close of US stocks on October 20th, Twitter rose 1.18% to close at $52.44, with a market value of $40.1 billion.
