The True Teresa Teng of Cultural Memory: A Legend Coming Quietly.

 


  Departure: the cultural memory of ignorant years


  Thirty years ago, the cultural field in the mainland of China was in ruins. Thirty years later, the cultural development in China has been dazzling and missing.


  Walking so fast, it’s easy to forget why you started in the first place. How many people have forgotten that they were moved by something and burst into tears. We tried to find the earliest bud that sprouted 30 years ago, hoping to find the bag that was left behind with the original dream …


  Pop music Teresa Teng: a legend that comes quietly.


  Her singing came from the other side of the strait and became the first gentle in that depressed political environment.


  Our reporter/Yang Shi


  Teresa Teng is an unavoidable name in the history of pop music in China. Thirty years ago, the cultural field in the mainland of China was in ruins. Her singing came from the other side of the Taiwan Strait, which became the first gentle song in that political environment. People privately played and recorded it, which quietly influenced more than one generation without any publicity.


  The real Teresa Teng


  "Teresa Teng has always known that she is very popular in the mainland. She is not unwilling to come to the mainland, but all kinds of coincidences have not come. The first half and the second half have their own reasons." Guan Weihua said while drinking red wine in his own bar in Beijing, "I have too many dribs and drabs with Teresa Teng."


  Guan Weihua, a Singaporean, was Teresa Teng’s agent when he started his career, and later had a close relationship with the Deng family. Teresa Teng made two films in his life, Thank you, General Manager, in 1969 and Miss Fans the following year. Guan Weihua discovered Teresa Teng because of the previous film. In the 1960s and 1970s, he often took some artists to perform in Southeast Asia.


  He found Teresa Teng’s mother to talk about the contract through friends. "My mother and Deng will talk about it in a minute. Teresa Teng was only a teenager at that time, and she had to pull me to teach her to swim. " Guan Weihua said that Deng Ma’s contract was $100 a day, which was a very high fee at that time. But after arriving in Vietnam, Guan MUGUR PETRU CIUBANCAN found that his monthly income reached $15,000. So he found Teresa Teng’s mother again and told the truth. He gave the money to Deng’s mother, let the other party bear his own expenses, and only got a commission of 10%. It was also that time that Guan Weihua won the trust of the Deng family, and they have been in contact since then.


  Since then, Teresa Teng’s income can reach $10,000 a month. Before that, Teresa Teng’s life was not rich. She was born in Tianyang Village, Baozhong Township, Yunlin County, Taiwan. She moved her family several times, studied ballet during this period, and received music enlightenment because of her musical talent in primary school. In 1967, Teresa Teng dropped out of the girls’ school because of her acting career.


  In Guan Weihua’s eyes, Teresa Teng is different from most artists. "Probably because of suffering, her family has little money. So she never strives for fame and fortune. We are like brothers and sisters, so I take her to any performance, and all countries in Southeast Asia go. Every time Teresa Teng is the core. " Guan Weihua said.


  After that, Teresa Teng’s star path was brilliant, and her records and concerts won numerous awards, which spread all over Southeast Asia. In 1973, Japanese record companies invited him to develop in Japan, and Teresa Teng’s mother found Guan MUGUR PETRU CIUBANCAN to discuss. "She didn’t read any books, although it was already very popular at that time. Only Japan can package her better. I think the three-year contract there is very stable, so let’s go." Guan Weihua said.


  This decision became an important turning point in Teresa Teng’s acting career. After that, she released the famous "Airport", which was even more prosperous from then on.


  In 1979, Teresa Teng exposed the storm of fake passports, which became another turning point in her life, and objectively she didn’t meet mainland fans. This is another story.


  The "psychological warfare" in the Taiwan Strait is not exclusively about Teresa Teng.


  Around 1978, some young people who love music began to copy Teresa Teng’s tapes from each other. At that time, no one knew who this woman with a sweet singing voice was. They just got used to the excitement of the model opera and suddenly realized that the music could be so wonderful. Soon, Teresa Teng’s songs spread rapidly among young people through underground means, first by ripping tapes, pirated tapes, and then by covering highlights. Sensitive college students are particularly enthusiastic about Teresa Teng’s songs. In those days, discussions about Teresa Teng often appeared on campus.


  With the popularity of music, criticism began gradually. In 1979, Teresa Teng’s songs from Hong Kong and Taiwan and Li Guyi’s "Homesickness" were popular in big cities, so some old musicians specially held a "Xishan Conference" for this purpose. Teresa Teng’s songs were classified as "yellow songs" and "decadent voices" and were completely banned from now on.


  Since then, this word with typical ideology has become the label of Teresa Teng on the mainland.


  The ban even further contributed to the popularity of Teresa Teng. Since the 1980s, Teresa Teng’s songs have spread all over the mainland, although they have never been broadcast by the official media.


  The exact source of these songs’ introduction into the mainland has been impossible to verify. Some of them brought tapes from the south, and some people listened to Taiwan Province’s broadcasts on short wave.


  He Qun (pseudonym) was the secretary of the Literature and Art Department of Fujian Radio Station in the 1980s. He recalled to the reporter of China News Weekly, "You can hear Taiwan Province broadcasting here in Fujian. At that time, many people liked to listen to Teresa Teng’s songs, which were also playing in the streets. At that time, the Ministry of Radio, Film and Television and china national radio had a verbal notice not to play Teresa Teng’s songs in the program, but there was no written document. "


  He Qun was born in a conservatory of music. He also liked Teresa Teng’s music at that time, and now he still has many preserved tapes of Teresa Teng at home. "At that time, the leaders of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee asked me what I thought of Teresa Teng’s music. I said that we wouldn’t broadcast it, and I wasn’t allowed to edit it. But my personal opinion is that there is nothing wrong with these songs, they are not’ yellow’ and’ disgusting’, and there is nothing politically reactionary. " He Qun said that he also heard rumors that "Taiwan Province’s broadcast of Teresa Teng is a psychological war against the mainland, and it is necessary to soften the fighting spirit of the mainland". "But everyone didn’t think they didn’t want to liberate Taiwan Province after listening to her music. At that time, there was interference with the news of Radio Taiwan Province, but Teresa Teng’s music could still be heard. "


  At that time, Taiwan Province broadcasted Teresa Teng’s songs to the mainland through radio, while Fujian Radio broadcasted traditional Nanyin and hometown music to Taiwan Province on weekdays, and broadcasted some passionate wind music on important days such as National Day. "It’s not an offensive, it’s just a morale booster." He Qun said. And those traditional Fujian Nanyin actually attracted letters from Taiwan Province listeners, feeling the changes in the mainland.


  Taiwan Province did not deliberately choose Teresa Teng to conduct psychological warfare on the mainland through broadcasting. Tao Xiaoqing, a senior host of Taiwan Province Zhongguang Radio, told the reporter of China Newsweek that "Taiwan Province (was) broadcast to the mainland by China Central Radio at that time. No music can’t be a program. They just chose the red singer at that time. Teresa Teng is very red and didn’t choose it on purpose. " The songs of contemporary singers of Teresa Teng are also played on the radio. Just because Deng’s songs have a strong flavor of life, they are more accepted by mainland audiences.


  Regret fulfills eternal nostalgia.


  On February 18th, 1979, in order to simplify the entry and exit procedures, Teresa Teng flew from Hongkong to Japan with an Indonesian passport. Later, this Indonesian passport, which was handled by Deng with the help of a friend, was suspected to be a fake document. At that time, Taiwan Province was very strict about the management of false documents, and according to the law, it could be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of less than one year. "At that time, it was possible to be sentenced to death because of fake documents." Guan Weihua added.


  After the fake passport storm, Teresa Teng, who holds an American visa, decided to go to the United States because of various considerations. "At that time, Teresa Teng’s family was in Taiwan Province, and she had no work to do in the United States. Her company is also very anxious. " Guan Weihua said.


  From the news in the United States, Teresa Teng learned that his songs were very popular in mainland China, so he was interested in sightseeing in mainland China.


  "At that time, Taiwan Province knew that Teresa Teng was very popular in the mainland. They knew that China was open at that time, and they were afraid that Teresa Teng would come to China. So they did the performance of the labor army, showing that Teresa Teng loves Taiwan Province very much. " Teresa Teng agreed to this performance, Guan Weihua said, in fact, this is also a compromise of Teresa Teng. She knows what’s going on. Therefore, Taiwan Province stopped pursuing fake passports, and she could go back to Taiwan Province. "Teresa Teng is an artist. She won’t participate in these political things herself, but her family is in Taiwan Province, and her brother or a soldier must be considered."


  In 1980, Teresa Teng was recalled to Taiwan Province to sing in the "Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall". In 1981, he performed in Taiwan Province for a month and made a feature film.


  The news of Teresa Teng’s labor army was widely spread by the authorities. At that time, her status attached by the Taiwan Province authorities was doomed to miss the mainland.


  In the second half of 1980s, the mainland had contact with Teresa Teng, hoping that she could perform in the mainland. But still failed to do so. "The first half is for political reasons, and the second half is for its own reasons. At that time, she was in poor health and gained weight, and the artist was unwilling to show her bad state to others. " Guan Weihua said.


  During that time, there were many rumors about Teresa Teng, and it even came out that she often went to Chiang Mai, Thailand because she was addicted to drugs.


  It was not until May 8, 1995 that the news that Teresa Teng died of asthma suddenly came to light. It was Guan Weihua’s birthday. He was having a party in a bar in Malaysia, and his friend called to tell the news. "I went to Deng’s house, and Deng’s mother sat next to me and told me that it was time for Lijun to go. I can understand the words of mother Deng more and more now. Teresa Teng left at that time to have an eternal Teresa Teng. " Guan Weihua said.


  In the mourning hall, Guan Weihua saw Teresa Teng’s coffin covered with party flag. "I thought at that time, people are like this. When Teresa Teng left, he didn’t actually take a Taiwan Province passport, but in the end he was covered with a national party flag. "


  After that year, Guan Weihua said that he had not celebrated his birthday for more than ten years.

On the Value and Opportunity of Blockchain from the Differences among Virtual Currency, Electronic Currency and Bitcoin

Bitcoin is a digital currency in the form of P2P. Bitcoin has no currency issuer, but is generated by a specific algorithm through a large number of calculations, and the security of its transactions is guaranteed through blockchain.

It should be noted that although the currency value of Bitcoin cannot be manipulated artificially by mass production, it can be manipulated artificially by injecting funds into the trading market.

The design based on cryptography can make bitcoin only be transferred or paid by the real owner, which also ensures the anonymity of currency ownership and circulation transactions.

In this paper, we will discuss the differences between digital currency and other virtual currencies, cash and electronic currencies.

I. Bitcoin and Virtual Currency

Virtual currency refers to unreal currency. Well-known virtual currencies such as Baidu’s Baidu coin, Tencent’s Q coin, Shanda’s counting coupons, and micro-coins launched by Sina. The following is an analysis with Q coins as the representative.

Q coin is a kind of virtual currency introduced by Tencent. It has an issuer and its price is very stable, so it will not fluctuate due to market interference. Q coins can be used to open business and buy virtual goods in Tencent’s applications, and cannot be cashed out.

Bitcoin is not issued by a specific monetary institution, but is generated by a large number of calculations according to a specific algorithm. The biggest difference between bitcoin and virtual currency is that its total quantity is limited and it is extremely scarce.

Specific differences:

1. Different prices

Although both have prices, because Q coins are virtual products issued by Tencent, its pricing power belongs to Tencent completely and is not affected by any institution or enterprise.

Bitcoin is a decentralized product, and there is no central issuer, so its price is completely determined by the market, which also causes it to be hundreds of dollars when it is low and even tens of thousands of dollars when it is high.

Bitcoin has the nature of investment and can earn income through the rise and fall of prices; Q coins can’t.

2. Different distribution mechanisms

Q coins are distributed centrally, and the decision is made by Tencent. How much you want to issue, how much you want to issue, and what products you can buy are all decided by Tencent.

Whether Bitcoin can buy goods and other uses is up to the user. When the number of people who accept the concept of bitcoin reaches a certain number, businesses will consider accepting bitcoin payment, especially Internet websites and service providers.

For example, Reddit, a social news and entertainment website focusing on user-generated content, began to accept users to buy Reddit’s gold medal service using bitcoin in February 2013; Ok Cupid, a free social networking site, began accepting users to use bitcoin to purchase its services in April 2013.

Bitfash, a bitcoin fashion store launched in April 2013, became the first fashion website in the world to support bitcoin payment. Users can directly purchase products from Zara (Spanish clothing brand), Forever21 (American clothing brand) and Mr Porter (famous American online men’s boutique), and other fashion brands have joined in succession.

3. Different management

Under the distribution mechanism, all the distribution data, usage data and related information of Q coins are completely in the hands of Tencent. Theoretically, all data storage can only be viewed and analyzed by Tencent, and no one else has the right to completely centralize storage, which has the risk of data leakage.

Bitcoin is a self-managed mechanism in which data such as transactions and transactions are completely stored in the blockchain. Players can view the data through the blockchain browser, etc. The data storage does not depend on any server or person.

Second, Bitcoin and electronic money

Electronic money refers to the exchange of a certain amount of cash or deposit from the issuer and the acquisition of data representing the same amount, which is directly transferred to the payment object by using some electronic methods, so as to make consumption or debt repayment.

The essence of electronic money is conceptual money information, which is actually special information composed of a group of data containing the user’s identity, password, amount, scope of use and so on.

When people use electronic money to trade, it is actually a kind of related information exchange.

After the information is transmitted to the merchants who set up this business, both parties to the transaction settle accounts. This way is more convenient and faster than cash transactions in real life.

Bitcoin is a kind of electronic money, which is artificially designed, and does not need to be issued by the central bank or a third-party institution in the real society, nor does it need to be cleared by a specific network.

The number of bitcoin is growing steadily and the total amount is limited. No institution can control the issuance of this currency, so there is no worry that spamming will lead to inflation. With the increasing difficulty of acquisition, the value of bitcoin has soared.

Third, Bitcoin and Traditional Currency

Electronic money and cash belong to traditional money, and money refers to the goods separated from commodities and fixed as universal equivalent.

Bitcoin belongs to the encrypted digital currency, which is an equity accounting unit.

Bitcoin is fundamentally different from traditional currencies. The following will introduce the differences between Bitcoin and traditional currencies by taking the US dollar as an example.

1. Bitcoin uses P2P technology and is not under the jurisdiction of the central authority.

Bitcoin is a decentralized currency, which is implemented by end-to-end (P2P) technology, and there is no centralized jurisdiction.

All matters related to Bitcoin, including issuance, transaction processing and verification, are conducted through the Internet, and there is no need for specialized agencies to monitor the entire capital flow process.

In contrast, traditional currencies are issued by central banks. For example, in the United States, the Federal Reserve is responsible for issuing US dollars, at the same time, it is also responsible for implementing the national monetary policy, supervising the banking industry in the United States, maintaining the stability of the financial system, and providing corresponding financial services to deposit institutions.

2. Bitcoin mainly exists in digital form.

Although companies such as Casascius and Bit Bills have physical bitcoin, the original intention of bitcoin design is a kind of digital currency.

At present, the physical form of bitcoin is still a novel product, but for most bitcoin advocates, the physical form of bitcoin has violated the original design intention.

On the contrary, traditional money mainly exists in physical form, and the funds in bank accounts or online broker accounts can be converted into physical dollars.

3. Bitcoin has a distribution limit of 21 million pieces.

The mining program of Bitcoin can produce 25 bitcoins every 10 minutes, and the output will be reduced by half every 4 years, so the number of bitcoins in circulation will reach the issuance limit in 2140.

Although some critics think that the upper limit of bitcoin issuance is not large, supporters believe that the value of a bitcoin can reach 8 decimal places (the smaller unit of bitcoin is satoshis, and 1 bitcoin = 10,000,000 satoshis).

That is, the maximum number of bitcoins can reach 2.1×1015 satoshis, which is enough to meet various needs in the future; Traditional currency issuance has no upper limit.

4. The acceptance of Bitcoin is limited.

At present, there are not many places that can accept Bitcoin, and it cannot be widely used in physical stores. Of course, with its popularity, this may change in the future.

In contrast, the US dollar, as a global reserve currency, can circulate almost all over the world.

5. Bitcoin trading has its limitations.

The transaction needs to wait about 10 minutes or more to confirm, the transaction is almost irreversible, and the refund can only be made by the recipient of Bitcoin. With the consent of the recipient, the initiator of the transaction can also choose to cancel the transaction.

Traditional currency does not have this problem, even debit and credit card transactions can be confirmed in a few seconds.

6. There is no corresponding safeguard for bitcoin balance.

If you accidentally lose bitcoin, for example, the computer hard disk crashes or hackers attack the user’s bitcoin wallet and steal the bitcoin from it, or the trading center that stores the bitcoin balance closes down, then the user’s balance will be zero.

However, the monetary balance of existing banks can be protected from bank failures, because they enjoy the insurance of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation of the United States. Of course, if the government collapses, that’s another matter.

Fourth, Bitcoin ≠ blockchain

Blockchain is the underlying technology of Bitcoin. Although many people know about blockchain through Bitcoin, it is ok to say that Bitcoin has achieved blockchain, but Bitcoin cannot be equated with blockchain.

The official explanation is that blockchain refers to a new application mode that integrates computer technologies such as distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism and encryption algorithm.

In a relatively straightforward way, the essence of blockchain is actually a distributed account book, or it is a way for all people to participate in financial recording.

Human life can not be separated from bookkeeping, Alipay or WeChat, and bookkeeping is also carried out in their own systems, and bookkeeping is the central bank.

Bitcoin is the result of the bookkeeping process in the blockchain system. People often say that mining is actually the bookkeeping process.

The operation of Bitcoin adopts the mechanism of "workload proof". When any data in the system changes, the system will judge a computer with the fastest and best bookkeeping, and write its recorded contents into the account book, and the corresponding computer will also receive a corresponding number of bitcoin rewards.

Blockchain has a huge technical advantage. It can create and give birth to the first unrepeatable item in human history that is realized solely by technical means and has natural trust.

At present, almost everything we see in nature can be copied, even living things, such as cloning technology.

None of these items can guarantee its uniqueness and authenticity, so it is necessary for third-party institutions to provide credit for the items and prevent counterfeiting.

The U.S. government provides credit for the U.S. dollar, and the state relies on state institutions to ensure the validity of the U.S. dollar, and whoever makes fraud will be punished.

But this kind of credit also consumes huge social costs. For example, the United States has a population of less than 400 million, but it needs tens of millions of public servants to maintain the operation of the government and provide national credit.

The account books in the blockchain record the so-called "coins", which use technology to realize the characteristics of non-copying and non-modification, so they naturally have credit and can be used to represent various assets and values.

No matter where we are, alive or dead, the digital assets represented by the blockchain always exist.

If your assets were in Mr. Accountant’s account book, in case the account book was burned, the assets would be gone; If your assets were in the bank during the Republic of China, and the Republic of China perished, your assets would also be gone.

But if your asset is bitcoin, unless all the bitcoin nodes are eliminated, as long as there is still one person in the world, then the whole system can be restored. This is also the reason why some people joked that only alien invasion can eliminate bitcoin.

Since the Internet era, we have realized the interconnection of information; The popularization of mobile communication technology has realized the interconnection between people; Now, with the development of 5G technology and Internet of Things technology, we are about to realize the Internet of Everything. 

What do we need to do next after information, people and things are interconnected? That is the interconnection and exchange of values.

The foundation of value connection is trust, and people are eager to establish trust through some technology and mechanism to establish a low-cost operation channel for the flow of value.

The blockchain just provides a solution that can meet the conditions. It can provide a safe and tamper-proof storage and recording method for data and transactions, and solve the trust problem from the mechanism level. From the perspective of economics, the establishment of trust mechanism can promote economic development.

Therefore, I hope that more friends will not focus on "speculating money", nor will they use traditional thinking methods to understand and learn the blockchain. They should learn more about the changes it can bring to social cooperation, and then look for opportunities to change their personal destiny from these changes.

I hope that each of us can grasp the real opportunities emerging in this technological feast and measure this era at our own pace.

The central bank announced a rate cut! How much can the mortgage save?

On the morning of February 20th, the People’s Bank of China authorized the National Interbank Funding Center to announce that on February 20th, 2024, the quoted interest rate (LPR) in the loan market was: 3.45% for one-year LPR and 3.95% for five-year LPR. The 1-year LPR remains unchanged compared with the previous period, and the 5-year LPR is lowered by 25 basis points. This is also the largest interest rate cut since LPR linked to mortgage interest rate after the interest rate cut of 10 basis points in June last year.

The picture is from the website of China People’s Bank.

The reporter calculated an account, calculated according to the loan of 1 million yuan, the fixed number of years of 30 years, and the equal principal and interest. Without considering the situation of adding points, the downward adjustment of LPR for more than 5 years will save interest for buyers by more than 50,000 yuan; Average capital saved nearly 38,000 yuan in interest.

Repayment required before downward adjustment.

Repayment required after downward adjustment.

When will the interest rate cut red envelope land?

Property buyers can inquire about the loan repricing date.

When will the interest rate cut red envelope land? The first benefit of this interest rate cut is the new home buyers, who can immediately enjoy the loan interest rate after the interest rate cut.

However, for the stock of old buyers, it is necessary to wait until the loan repricing date.

If you enjoyed the red envelope of interest rate reduction in 2023 in the past January, it means that the repricing date of your loan is January 1. One million mortgages with 30-year commercial loans equal to the principal and interest, and the monthly payment will be reduced by about 60 yuan, which will save about 700 yuan in one year. This group that enjoyed interest rate cuts in January will begin to enjoy interest rate cuts in January 2025.

If the loan pricing date is the loan issuance date, and the loan issuance date is after February, it is expected to get the the Year of the Loong interest rate reduction red envelope in advance.

The interest rate cut has been expected in the market. In December 2023, national commercial banks lowered the deposit interest rate. Therefore, although MLF remained unchanged before, the mainstream view of market institutions still judged that the interest rate trend of LPR in February or independent of the flat MLF was lowered.

On February 18th, the Financial Times, which is in charge of the central bank, analyzed that in the next stage, the nominal interest rate and real interest rate, including LPR in February, are still expected to decline.

Mom sees the kua series! What to give on Mother’s Day will not be said to be wasteful.

  Has the May Day holiday syndrome slowed down? Ladies and gentlemen, Mother’s Day will come quietly this weekend. Compared with previous years, this year’s atmosphere is quite special.

  I believe many people will take this opportunity to send gifts to their mothers who have worked hard to raise themselves to show their filial piety and gratitude. Women love flowers, and the best choice is often to choose a bunch of flowers with profound meaning, but carnations and the like seem to be nothing new every year. Black roses are advanced and beautiful, and flowers are gentle and sincere, which seems to be a good choice. But my mother feels happy when she receives flowers, but at the same time she feels that it is not real enough. Wouldn’t it be perfect if the gift is both beautiful, practical and meaningful?
