Recently, Curtis Baldwin, a former foreign teacher of EF Education, an English training institution, was accused of sexually exploiting 12-year-old students in China.

　　Baldwin has been sued in the United States. On October 23rd, Weibo account @ EF Education issued a statement saying that Baldwin was dismissed in November 2019 for violating EF’s code of conduct for employees, and he immediately returned to the United States. The following month, the parents of a former student contacted EF Education and told them that Baldwin might have violated the law in contacting the student through social media in the United States. With the consent of parents, EF North American staff reported the case to the relevant US departments within one week.

　　The statement did not disclose why Baldwin violated the employee code.

　　In response to this matter, on the afternoon of 23rd, the public relations staff of EF Education Shanghai Headquarters responded to The Paper that Curtis Baldwin worked in EF from 2014 to 2019 as an English teacher. In November 2019, EF Education received a complaint against foreign teacher Baldwin, and the company immediately suspended him. The complaint has nothing to do with this case.

　　Regarding the content of the complaint, the publicist did not disclose it, saying that during Baldwin’s tenure, all classrooms of EF were equipped with security monitoring probes.

　　On 23rd, an expert on juvenile protection told The Paper that sexual exploitation is a kind of sexual assault in China’s current law, but the relevant provisions of the law are not comprehensive, for example, there is no provision for perpetrators to sexually exploit minors through the Internet.

　　Ef’s former foreign teacher was accused of sexually exploiting and spreading child pornography.

　　According to the contents of the indictment released by official website, the United States Department of Justice, on October 5th, 47-year-old Curtis Baldwin pleaded guilty in front of David Rush, the chief district judge of the United States, and he confessed to being accused of sexually exploiting minors and receiving and disseminating child pornography.

　　According to the indictment, the suspect Curtis Baldwin, from Springfield, Missouri, worked as an English teacher in EF Education China and left EF Education on November 20, 2019. After returning to Springfield, he contacted a 12-year-old female student who had previously taught in China through WeChat. According to the indictment, Baldwin threatened the girl by publishing naked videos.

　　In addition, according to the indictment, on March 10, 2020, federal agents executed a search warrant at Baldwin’s residence. A number of items were seized, and it was found that Baldwin’s Apple) MacBook Pro laptop contained child pornography files, including several videos of underage women in China having explicit sex.

　　According to the indictment, Baldwin may face at least 15 years in prison according to federal law. The case was filed by Ami Harshad Miller, an assistant U.S. attorney.

　　On 23rd, Lv Xiaoquan, a lawyer of Beijing Qian Qian Law Firm, told The Paper that the term "sexual exploitation" comes from the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, and the concept is not directly put forward in China’s current laws, but the indecency and rape of children, the introduction, organization and forcing of minors to engage in prostitution, the production, publication, dissemination and reproduction of child pornography and the pornographic performances of children in the Criminal Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC) all belong to "sexual exploitation".

　　Niu Shuaishuai, director of the International Cooperation Department of Beijing Youth Legal Aid and Research Center, pointed out that there are many forms of child sexual exploitation, including child pornography, child sexual seduction, child prostitution and sexual extortion against children. Compared with sexual abuse of children, the word "exploitation" contains the meaning of "transaction", that is, there is some form of material or other immaterial transaction between the victim and the perpetrator or the third person.

　　Niu Shuaishuai told The Paper that in China’s current laws, sexual exploitation is a kind of sexual assault, but the relevant provisions of the law are not comprehensive, for example, there is no provision for perpetrators to sexually exploit minors through the Internet.

　　Girl protection expert: There are more and more cyber sexual assaults, so sex education should be strengthened.

　　The Paper noted that @ EF Education announced in its statement on October 23rd that the parents of the student had contacted the company, and informed that Baldwin had contacted the student through social media in the United States, and there might be illegal acts in communication. With the consent of parents, EF North American staff reported the case to the relevant US departments within one week.

　　Xu Hao, vice chairman of Beijing Zhongyi Public Welfare Foundation and member of the fund management committee of the "Girl Protection" public welfare project, said in an interview with The Paper that in this incident, the girl’s parents contacted EF Education after seeing the information, which is very correct and worth learning.

　　Xu Hao said that at present, there are more and more sexual assaults on the Internet. For example, sex-related activities in the form of videos, pictures, voices, and words can be regarded as sexual assaults on minors.

　　Faced with this phenomenon, Xu Hao said that parents need to strengthen supervision and teach their children how to prevent sexual assault. "Parents should pay attention to what their children are doing online and consciously help them identify what is harmful and inaccessible."

　　Xu Hao said that parents can set up interception software for their children’s daily computer and mobile phone terminals. In addition, in terms of sex education, parents should correctly guide their children, not "talk about sex change", and learn to distinguish which behaviors involve sexual induction.

　　Niu Shuaishuai suggested that on the issue of sexual abuse and exploitation of minors, the most important thing is to prevent the occurrence of such incidents, and to nip the bud of crime in the beginning by strengthening sex education. Niu Shuaishuai mentioned that Article 40 of the newly revised Law on the Protection of Minors stipulates that schools and kindergartens should carry out sex education suitable for minors, which is a major breakthrough in sex education for minors in the Law on the Protection of Minors.

　　In addition, Niu Shuaishuai suggested that an information inquiry system for criminals such as sexual assault, abuse, trafficking and violent injury should be established at the national level, and free inquiry services should be provided to units that are in close contact with minors, such as educational institutions.

　　Million Chinese stars, subversion and start again! Recently, Geely China Star Intelligent Dual Engine once again challenged the high difficulty, bravely picking the three major landmarks of Japan’s Tsukuba Circuit, Qiumingshan and Tomei Line, and achieved outstanding performance such as 7.92s 100 kilometers acceleration, 79.9km/h elk, and 4.3L 100 kilometers fuel consumption. It also set the fastest lap record of the first Chinese A-class sedan at Tsukuba Circuit with a lap time of 1:18.03, demonstrating high performance, strong control, and low fuel consumption. All-round hardcore strength. With 1.5TD four-cylinder hybrid special engine + the world’s leading three-speed intelligent frequency conversion technology + X · System intelligent control system and other innovative technologies, China Star Intelligent Dual Engine has broken the long-standing technical barriers of oil mixing, achieved energy-saving, performance and intelligent balanced development, with Chinese solutions and Chinese standards, leading the global oil mixing technology to continue to advance, and quickly entering the more advanced, smarter, safer and more comprehensive Chinese "Star" era.

　　As a classic "Holy Land of Brushing Circles" and F3 race base in Japan, Tsukuba Circuit has a unique design of 8 complex curves including short and compact, low-speed compound curve + high-speed curve + hairpin curve, which places extremely high requirements on the driver’s driving technology and the vehicle’s dynamic performance and control and other comprehensive mechanical qualities. Faced with such a difficult challenge, China Star Intelligent Dual Engine has no stage fright, with 7.92s 100 kilometers acceleration, 34.65m braking distance, 79.9km/h elk, 1 minute, 18 seconds and 03 laps, etc., leading the Japanese Dual Engine products of the same level in an all-round way.

　　China Star Intelligent Dual Engine’s leadership lies not only in its strong power performance, but also in the field of fuel economy. In the fuel consumption test project of the Dongming Line, after 1.5 hours and 104km of uninterrupted driving, the fuel consumption is only 4.3L/100km, and the actual fuel consumption measured by the refueling method is 4.46L/100km. The strength catches up with the same level of oil-mixed models.

　　Behind the outstanding results is the strong confidence and confidence given by the technological innovation of China Star Intelligent Dual Engine. Compared with the Japanese equivalent oil-mixed products, which are mainly fuel-saving self-priming engines + single-speed electric drives, China Star Intelligent Dual Engine is equipped with a 1.5TD direct injection turbocharged hybrid special four-cylinder engine with a thermal efficiency of up to 44.26% as standard, which can release 120kW maximum power and 255N · m maximum torque; then matched with the world’s leading 3-speed intelligent frequency conversion DHT, supports P1 + P2 dual motor drive, and can enter the full speed domain at a speed of more than 20km/h. The maximum wheel end output torque is 4920N · m, and the torque-to-mass ratio is 41N · m/kg. The maximum transmission efficiency is up to 97.5% in the world, with almost no energy loss. Low-speed electricity consumption, medium-speed fuel-saving, and high-speed power supply, China Star Intelligent Dual Engine’s strength subverts the inherent cognition of "hybrid only energy-saving, no performance" shaped by traditional oil-mixed products in the past, and provides users with a new generation of Chinese hybrid solutions and options that "balance performance and fuel-saving".

　　If the Tsukuba Circuit and the Tomei Line in Japan demonstrate the pinnacle of China Star Intelligent Dual Engine’s power performance and energy conservation, then the "holy land of running mountains" in the hearts of many racers, Akiyama Mountain, is the best test ground to show the powerful handling strength of China Star Intelligent Dual Engine. The mountain road of only 3 kilometers has steep twists and turns, with more than 30 corners, and an average of nearly 180 degrees every 100 meters. The road down the mountain is thrilling and exciting, which greatly tests the vehicle’s handling performance and the mechanical quality of the vehicle.

　　Relying on the natural good foundation given by the world-class CMA architecture, L Intelligent Engine is supported by the world’s leading wire-controlled chassis technology, McPherson front suspension, multi-link independent rear frame, ZF DP-EPS steering power system, and the longest suspension stroke design of the same level. With strong grip and excellent corner handling, it can quickly respond to the driver’s intention and accurately feed back road condition information. Whether it is entering a corner, bending, or exiting a corner, the whole vehicle body posture is very beautiful and smooth, bringing a driving texture that combines driving comfort and sports control. Especially under the inherent advantages brought by the 29000N · m/deg torsional stiffness comparable to millions of luxury cars, the dynamic roll stiffness of 3.65deg/g, and the negative camber design of the only racing car in the same class, Xingrui L Intelligent Engine still performs well in the famous five-star autumn famous mountain hairpin bend, which not only accurately locks the wheel track, ensures the accuracy and flexibility of the vehicle, but also enhances the vehicle’s cornering grip and agility, bringing excellent driving confidence and racing-like attacking and cornering experience.

　　No frequency conversion does not save energy, and no performance does not subvert. From the dynamic performance test of Tsukuba Circuit, to the 104km fuel consumption test of Dongming Line, and then to the control test of Qiumingshan, China Star Intelligent Dual Engine has fully confirmed that China Hybrid has the strong strength to subvert the hybrid pattern and redefine the new standard of global hybrid value with excellent performance and leading technical confidence.

　　It is with this kind of product confidence and strong technical confidence that has been rooted in the bones of "not trying is not better than not selling" since its birth, China Star has always insisted on creating high value, constantly breaking through and subverting along the way, running out of China’s "Star" speed, becoming the first high-end series in China’s A-class fuel vehicle market to break through 1 million sales; among them, Xingrui and Xingyue L have entered the hinterland of the A-class mainstream fuel vehicle market, and in April they ranked No. 1 in China’s fuel SUV and sedan sales, leading the new pattern of China’s fuel vehicle market.

　　The next million-dollar era has begun! China Star, China Auto, has never been afraid of head-on competition, dared to show the sword, and let the world see the confident rise and powerful power of Chinese manufacturing.

1905 movie network news Recently, the "China Directors Exchange Program" jointly organized by the Film Bureau of the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television and Twentieth Century Fox Film Company was successfully held in Los Angeles, USA. Seven China directors, including Jason Wu, Kim-ching Luk, Zhao Xiaoding, Zhao Tianyu, Lu Zhengyu, Yang Lei and Liu Yulin, were invited to visit the headquarters of Flowserve Company. This is the second exchange activity between Chinese and foreign film directors held by Flowserve after seven directors were invited in 2016, including Urshan, Zheng Baorui, Ding Sheng, Yu Baimei, Han Yan, Cheng Er and Yang Qing.

　

Chinese and foreign filmmakers talked at the peak, "The director’s duty is to touch the audience."

The four-day exchange training was rich in content. The director group of China, representing the cutting-edge forces, not only visited the FoxWorks Studio, the visual effects laboratory and the costume props library, watched many films produced by FoxWorks in the 20th century, but also visited the shooting scene (temporarily translated by AD ASTRA) and listened to many senior executives of FoxWorks introducing Hollywood cutting-edge technologies such as visual effects, VR technology, post-production and the production process of the film industry. In the meantime, famous Hollywood directors James Cameron (), James Mangold (), wes ball (), Lv Yinrong () and shane black (Xin) shared their experiences in film creation, and had a warm exchange with China directors on the adaptation of literary works, keeping the vitality of the series and the technical challenges faced by visual blockbusters. Invited directors from China said that FOSS’s creative innovation, industrial process and corporate culture in the 20th century gave them reference and inspiration.

　

Many invited directors mentioned in feedback that Hollywood’s perfect industrial process depends on a high degree of professionalism and fine division of labor; As a director, we should grasp the core and essence of the film, that is, the soul of the film, as James Mangold, the director of Wolverine 3: A Fight to the Death, said in the exchange: "The director’s duty is to touch the audience, not just to attract people’s attention. Movies that can stay in people’s hearts for a long time are not dazzling skills, but stories that can make the audience cry, make the audience laugh and resonate with the audience. This is the essence of being a director. "

　

China’s director group visited Avatar 2 to see the scene of the card god.

Jon Landau, a Hollywood gold medal producer, personally led China’s director group to visit the Light Storm Entertainment Company directed by Cameron, and shared the behind-the-scenes stories of every important prop that once appeared in the movie of Ka Shen, such as "in the heart of the sea" in Titanic and "Avatar" Na Mei Ren 1; 1 bust, special diving helmet with microphone for shooting, and CG liquid alien creature in Abyss provide technical preparation for the liquid metal robot in China. Jon Landau explained in detail the latest cutting-edge technology used in the production of Avatar 2 for China’s director team, and took the directors to enjoy the wonderful clips of Avatar Theme Park in Orlando Disney World through the big screen. At the invitation of James Cameron, he went to the shooting set of Avatar 2 to watch Ka Shen shoot a gun battle with a virtual camera.

　

Being able to watch Cameron shoot Avatar 2 on the spot also excited the China director group. Director Zhao Tianyu said, "In a way, technology is both artistic. I am amazed by Cameron’s unremitting exploration of audio-visual language and film technology. " Director Yang Lei praised: "Seeing Cameron shooting on the set, he solved all the trivial matters on the shooting scene with extreme technology, and devoted all his energy to the origin of drama. He can pay attention to the actors’ performance, scheduling and drama conflict just like rehearsing a drama, and then confirm other technical links such as position and lighting effect through post-production."

　

Wes ball, a young technical director, shared his post-production experience of Moving Maze.

In recent years, the dystopian sci-fi movie "Moving Maze" series has been deeply loved by young audiences all over the world, and will also be released in the United States on January 26th next year. Wes ball, the director of this series, attended the exchange activities and explained his experience in Hollywood with the director group of China. As a computer special effects student, he once posted an animated short film Ruin, which he spent eight months making on the Internet. The outstanding talent shown in it attracted Fox’s attention and started the road of directing. When shooting the first "Moving Maze", he also faced the problem of limited production funds. He and the crew used the LED display screen and green screen as the background to shoot the thrilling elevator scenes in the film, and skillfully used CG and other technical means to help build their own imaginary world. His sharing of specific cases and behind-the-scenes tidbits also aroused enthusiastic response from directors in China.

　

FOSS’s visual team has always insisted that visual effect is a tool to serve directors to realize their ideas and escort films. According to John Kilkenny, president of FOSS visual effects department, and Glenn Derry, vice president, "Producers in visual effects department will support and protect directors with their professionalism. During the preparation of director Ang Lee, the FOSS special effects team filmed a fragment of a real tiger and an experimental fragment of a CG tiger that was enough to be fake, and asked director Ang Lee to identify it, which successfully eliminated the director’s doubts about the effect of CG tiger. "

　

FOSS sincerely and professionally moved the director and attached importance to cross-cultural communication and China market.

In the sharing session of series director Lv Yinrong, she described the communication process and workflow of her first live-action film "Heart of Diablo" with Fowles. She said that Fowles is a studio that gives directors full creative freedom, and they trust the director’s ability and judgment. They just need to know what kind of human and material support the director needs and provide them. Emma Watts, president of Flowserve’s production department, introduced Flowserve’s new film plan to the directors, saying that the most important thing in film production is the true and shared feelings of human beings, which is the secret to make the film cross languages, national boundaries and cultures.

　

Through the sharing between Hollywood directors and FOSS executives, the China Directors’ Group not only felt the sincerity and professionalism of FOSS’ cooperation with filmmakers, but also fully felt that as a top Hollywood studio with rich and diverse production contents, FOSS insisted on making excellent films across cultures and national boundaries, especially its emphasis on the China market and its desire to cooperate with China filmmakers. Andrew Cripps, President of Flowserve International Distribution, introduced to the director group that Flowserve has a powerful distribution system for distributing films in 90 countries and regions around the world. He stressed: "For Hollywood studios, the international market, especially the China market, is occupying an increasingly important position."

　

postscript

The exchange activities of Fox Film Company in the 20th century made the directors involved feel a lot. glad you came. And it was highly praised by the Film Bureau. In a thank-you letter to Ms. Stacy Snyder, the chairman of FOSS, Deputy Director Zhang Hongsen said: "This exchange activity has broadened the horizons of directors in China to a certain extent, enriched their creative and production experience, and helped directors to shoot better films and promote the greater development of China films … In this sense, this exchange activity is of great significance and far-reaching influence. "

　

Director Wu Ershan:

"Thank you very much for your thoughtful arrangement. Five days of study is very fulfilling. I hope that more American colleagues will share their experience in filming with us in the future. China filmmakers and screenwriters can participate in this exchange, and there is no doubt that the development of the entire China film industry will benefit. "

　

Lu Zhengyu, director and executive director of peerless master:

　"I was fortunate enough to participate in the director exchange activities organized by the Film Bureau and Fox Company. During the short five-day trip to Los Angeles, the content of the exchange was very comprehensive from top to bottom, and it was particularly important to integrate with Hollywood’s top creative thinking and industrial system and broaden our horizons. Great! I hope that fox’s activities will be held every year, so that more China film creators can participate. "

　

"Love O2O" director Zhao Tianyu:

　"This time, it was very rewarding to participate in the FOSS director group. I am most interested in how the film industry can be combined with the creativity of directors. I can clearly feel this in my communication with several directors. (For example, wes ball, the director of Moving Maze 3, and Lv Yinrong, the series of Kung Fu Panda) I think that the high standards of industry and the creativity of directors actually promote each other. The movies we saw this time all confirmed this point. I can also feel FOSS’s interest in us and the China market. I expect FOSS to implement the production plan in the China market, and I am willing to participate. "

　

Yang Lei, director of "Biography of Shark Beads":

"First of all, thank you very much, FOSS. It’s been a very, very full week. The American film industry has always led the world’s films. The global distribution plan of American movies has made us see many high-level blockbusters, so the behind-the-scenes production of these blockbusters has also become a research topic for filmmakers all over the world. This time, I met several famous directors with different styles, including James Mangold, james gray, James Cameron (three James), wes ball, jennifer yuh and shane black.

　

What impressed me deeply was that when discussing why to make a film, several directors focused on treating characters and their emotions. This seemingly simple question was actually very difficult. Director Mangaud is also discussing his different styles of films, whether it is the western film "The Battle of Yuma Town", biographies and comic film "Wolverine 3: World War I", the same starting point among them is driven by the inner feelings of the characters. Shane black is also talking about the unexpected characters in his films. After a few days of communication, my biggest experience is that behind the seemingly complex and huge film industry, the soul is always these seemingly simple characters and emotions, and in the face of complex industrial processes, we must first find the soul. With the soul, the film will live, and then we will face those complex industrial processes.

　

Of course, the film itself is built on the basis of technology, so the technical solution is very important for the film. It can also be realized from the communication with these directors that understanding technology is very important for the creation of the film. Director Cameron often decides the very important selling point in his next film with the technical guidance. When he gets the liquid rendering technology, he will conceive the liquid robot. wes ball is a director who studied computer special effects. He can skillfully use various technical means to solve his imaginary world. James gray carefully explained how he would take some shots in the space capsule. Every director will eventually face the shooting complexity brought by industrial films, so process management becomes particularly important in industrial films. In the past, the production process of our traditional films was post-production-music-mixed recording, such as writing scripts-looking for actors-preparing the crew, serving-shooting-editing, etc. Then on the basis of this traditional process, industrial films will reorder the traditional processes, such as Cameron’s filming Avatar, which will change the order of some traditional processes. Including privz process, is applied to industrial process management system. Let me deepen my understanding of the importance of process management in making a blockbuster industrial system.

　

I am very grateful to FOSS for this arrangement. I was lucky to see James Cameron’s shooting scene, my idol director James Mangold and guillermo del toro’s Story of Water. I learned about the experience of a young director like wes ball in Hollywood, and I also saw how an animator jennifer yuh stepped onto the road of directing step by step. "

Fashion is a highly unstable term because it enters the market and disappears. However, some fashion designs come and go for a long time, while others come and go in a few weeks. Therefore, short-term fashion design is an example of fashion.

Fashion literally means: a strong passion for something or a strong and widely shared interest in something, but for a short time. For example, suppose you are obsessed with learning piano, so you buy an expensive piano, attend a famous music school and pay a non-refundable fee for one year. But in the next few weeks, all your enthusiasm for learning piano disappeared, and you left everything. This means that your interest in learning piano has faded.

Fashion is the latest and most popular style in clothes, dresses and behaviors, but the time is short. For example, some fashion designs or behaviors inspired by movies, or celebrities who wear them in fashion shows or parties or in any leisure way, have become popular within a few days. Everyone wants to have this design, but in the next few weeks, people forget it and turn to new fashions. Similarly, the beginning of fashion is very exciting and inspiring, but its journey is very short.

The success or failure of any fashion design or trend depends on many factors, including who designed it, what brand it is, who is/is promoting it, how it is advertised, how society reacts to this fashion trend, the price range of clothes, and so on. However, among them, social acceptance is the most important, which is guided by different motivations that emphasize people’s values and behaviors.

In today’s technologically advanced world, fashion is only a matter of a few hours. This is the world of social media platforms, and someone or something can become popular at the fingertips in a few hours. But how durable is this popularity? It depends on the fashion design and the quality and attractiveness of the fabric.

The consumption culture in today’s world is driven by their desire to own it, which eventually shortens the gap between the rich and the economically turbulent class. So, if they like it, they want to have new fashionable dresses. There are many such examples in today’s world. If you look around, you can easily find people who spend two or three months of their wages on luxury goods that are actually not needed at all.

What is the reason why you suddenly like fashion design and then suddenly don’t like the same design?

In this digital world, touching things with fingers has become popular, and it is really easy to trend fashion design by using different social media platforms. Therefore, if a particular fashion design is endorsed by a big brand, or/and advertised by top movie stars with millions of fans, in this case, under the influence of favorite stars, consumers will not pay too much attention to product quality and price. They just buy it. But within a few days, when people began to use it, they realized the quality, price or comfort of the design. Last but not least, the social response to a particular design. Moreover, if such a reaction is negative, its demand will suddenly drop.

In addition, the pure fact is that no fashion design enters the market forever. In fact, every fashion design has life; Some have a long life span, while others have a short life span. Fashion is a part of a short-term trend, which begins to be popular quickly and then fades out of the market in a short time.
