"Thursday will be a fixed game day, paying attention to the entertainment innovation brought by game technology and experience iteration. Welcome to contribute and communicate. Please see the end of the article for contact;For more game cases and technology application research, please pay attention to the brand account of Dongxi Entertainment Game Group.“

Technical development has always been an important force leading the iteration of game products. With the more extensive application of AI technology in the game industry, new game tracks are gradually bred.

Recently, Hidden Door, an American startup company, announced its first product-Hidden Door, a social AIGC narrative platform, and announced that it had completed the financing of US$ 2 million, which was led by the European venture capital fund Northzone, followed by funds such as Makers Fund and Brooklyn Bridge Ventures, and Roblox CTO Dan Sturman also participated as an angel investor.

Hidden Door is a narrative game platform based on AIGC-related technologies. Through AI natural language generation technology, it stimulates the potential of players’ story creation and allows many players to take risks in stories aided by AI.

Hilary Mason, CEO of Hidden Door, said, "This project is mainly to create game narratives together, establish social connections among players, and enable anyone to create unique stories. The challenge is how to develop an AI system, which can not only allow AI to create with players, but also ensure the diversity and security of stories. "

Compared with game design, AI technology and algorithm are more critical factors for the success of this kind of AIGC narrative game platform. Hidden Door is not the forerunner of this track. As early as 2019, a similar product AI Dungeon appeared. However, due to the limitations of AI technology, AI Dungeon has already experienced risks such as uncontrollable AIGC content and insufficient security.

Although the technology is not mature enough before, AIGC has brought new mechanisms and experiences to the interactive narration of the game, and helped the game narration, which used to emphasize single-player experience, to be more closely combined with social play, thus giving birth to a new business model, thus attracting companies such as Hidden Door to explore and invest in this direction.

Hidden Door：

AIGC narrative game platform to create multi-person creation and social space

Founded in 2020, Hidden Door is a graphical multiplayer game platform, which uses AI to help players build a complete game narrative. Players only need to give a general world view framework and story outline, and then AI can complete the filling of NPC, items and other content.

The platform can store the world and stories built by players and AI, and players can play the roles in these stories, have a 2D virtual image, and manipulate the characters to travel and take risks in the world by inputting natural language commands.

The platform will be tested this year, but its game threshold is not high, and the natural language texts given to AI are only simple sentences. The first users are aimed at children between 9 and 12 years old.

Hilary Mason, founder of Hidden Door, believes thatDuring the epidemic, "desktop role-playing games such as Dungeons and Dragons are more popular than ever, and storytelling has become a popular social activity in games such as Roblox and Minecraft."

At the same time, in the process of accompanying children to tell stories during the epidemic, she found that narration was a challenge for ordinary people. Hilary Mason was inspired by this and chose to use AI to help players to build more interesting game narratives.

Hilary Mason believes that the value of introducing AI is mainly reflected in the release of narrative creativity of players. "Players may be inspired by an idea, but they will find that it takes a lot of work to create stories around it."

In order to better understand the Hidden Door product, Hilary Mason compares the game experience of this product with the board game Dungeons and Dragons.The role of AI in the game is similar to that of DM(Dungeon Master) in Dungeon and Dungeon.

Dungeons and Dragons is a classic desktop role-playing game, which is regarded as the predecessor of electronic role-playing games. With a complete set of rules of the game, players play the role of adventurers to participate in the game, relying on paper and pen to record the values and equipment props of the role, telling the players their actions in oral language, and then deciding whether the action is successful by rolling the dice.

Because each game of Dungeons and Dragons is based on the existing complete world view and story, and the behavior of the characters is completely based on the player’s dictation, the game has a high degree of freedom, and the role of DM is to respond to the player’s behavior according to the rules of the game and the story.

For example, before cleaning up the monsters outside the city in the main plot, the player chooses to ask the help of the Lord in the city, while DM will play the role of the Lord, and decide to give the player more or less assistance according to whether the Lord is stingy in setting.

Back on the Hidden Door, AI plays the role of an auxiliary builder of plot and world view, and at the same time replaces the original role of DM, which can help players to free themselves from complex creation and rules and fully devote themselves to the game.

In other words, the creativity of the story comes from people, and AI is more like a helper. When the player is exploring the game, AI is responsible for perfecting the overall story structure, filling in the gaps in the world view and describing the details of the story. When players lack the ability of narrative rhythm, story tension and conflict management, they can also be supplemented by AI.

However, this also means that products like Hidden Door have high requirements for AI’s natural language ability and data processing ability.

Hilary Mason is a data scientist herself. She founded Fast Forward Labs, an AI research company. The company’s first research was about natural language generation. Matt Brandwein, another founder of the company, was the product leader of Cloudera, a data platform company, providing AI and data service support for companies such as eBay and Nokia.

AIGC narrative game platform technology and mode iteration direction;

More controllable and visual

In fact, Hidden Door can be regarded as the second generation AI narrative game platform, and a similar product named AI Dungeon appeared in 2019.

AI Dungeon is developed by Latitude, a startup company, and is based on the rules of the game similar to Dungeons and Dragons, but it is different from Hidden Door in the game mode. If Hidden Door is an "expansion" in the player’s mind, then AI Dungeon is a "continuation".

AI Dungeon is like a novel written by a player and AI. In the game, there are only words without any graphics. The player is responsible for inputting simple sentences to control the actions and dialogues of the characters, while AI is responsible for the subsequent plot development of the player’s text.

AI Dungeon’s text generation technology is completely based on the GPT model released by OpenAI. AI Dungeon attracted more than 100,000 players within a few months after the official version was launched in December 2019. To this end, OpenAI also provided a professional version for Latitude, and promoted it as a successful product of commercialization of GPT model.

GPT model has now developed to GPT-3, which has become an important technology of AI narration in many games. In the VR game "Modbox", there is already a test version that applies GPT-3 to NPC characters and can have a simple conversation with players.

However, this technology has not been installed in Modbox, because OpenAI has not been authorized to open GPT-3 in the game field on a large scale. One of the important reasons behind it is that GPT-3 still has certain limitations, and some disadvantages have been highlighted on AI Dungeon.

First, it is uncontrollable.. As an AI text generation technology, GPT-3 does not have a sense of morality, and there is no criterion for judging whether the generated text is suitable for players of all ages. In addition, under the game mode of AI Dungeon’s "continuation writing", AI can easily produce illegal and pornographic content under the deliberate guidance of players. This problem began to spread on a large scale in 2021 and caused a bad influence on AI Dungeon.

Second, there are stereotypes.The machine learning of GPT-3 is completely based on the information of the whole Internet, and is influenced by various stereotypes on the Internet. This problem of GPT-3 was publicly discussed at a seminar held by researchers from OpenAI and Stanford University in 2020, but no good solution has been found yet.

In order to solve the above two problems, AI Dungeon had to launch a new filtering system in May, 2021, but the mechanism of this system was extremely rude. In order to prevent child pornography, even the word "five years old" was once not allowed to appear in the game. Moreover, this system has also been pointed out that there is a problem of reading the information of the player’s equipment, and there is a risk of information leakage.

Hidden Door realized the limitations of GPT-3 model, and even published a blog post in official website to point out the problems of GPT-3.On the basis of the first generation AI narrative game platform AI Dungeon, we choose to iterate in the directions of natural language generation technology, game mode and game graphics.

First of all, based on the natural language generation technology accumulated by Hilary Mason in Fast Forward Labs, Hidden Door has developed a new narrative game engine, has an independent machine learning training model, and has set a safer content production standard.

Secondly, it is also the difference of the game mode mentioned above. Hidden Door expands according to the outline provided by the player, which is more controllable.

Finally, AI Dungeon is the expression form of pure words, while Hidden Door introduces the visualization form of 2D graphics generated by AI, which is more intuitive in presentation form.

How AIGC Remodels Interactive Narrative Games

Experience and business model

In recent years, the game has become an important scene where the concept of AIGC has landed, and it covers many dimensions from game development to player play.

Among them, from the current development stage of AI technology, AIGC is closely related to game narrative. It is mainly embodied in shaping a brand-new narrative experience in traditional 3A games, but when it falls into a broader category of interactive narrative, it will bring new inspiration to this category to open up social gameplay and business models.

In fact, as the open world becomes more and more complex, there may actually be thousands of NPCs in a world, but most of them are ordinary passers-by. Some games are trying to make every NPC play a role in the game narrative, and choose to introduce AIGC for this purpose, so as to make the stories of these NPCs intertwined.

For example, in 2021, Ubisoft released Watchdog: Legion, which is a game without a protagonist. Players can play any NPC in the game. Ubisoft, through the self-developed aLiVE group AI system, gives NPC in every city independent personality, ability, life, story and interpersonal relationship, and each NPC has high interactivity and coherence.

You saved an NPC’s life one day, and then that NPC’s friend may give you a helping hand. You see a pickpocket NPC at the gate of the subway station. After a while, you may see him running away after the police. Thanks to the diversity of NPC AI, each player often has a unique game narrative experience in Watchdog: Legion.

From the point of view that the interactive narrative of the game extends to the whole interactive narrative category, the emergence of AIGC narrative game platforms such as AI Dungeon and Hidden Door has actually opened up more social gameplay and business models for interactive narrative games.

Interactive narrative games have accumulated in the European and American markets for many years, especially in the European and American mobile game market, there have been head products such as Episode》《Choice that have developed for many years and have a stable audience. Among them, "Episode" has the best commercial performance and is stable in the top 60 of the best-selling list of iOS games in the United States. This category of track has even attracted China manufacturers to go to sea, such as "Chapters" launched by Chinese online, which ranks among the top 200 best-selling products.

Episode, as a representative old-fashioned product, provides a game platform for players to play and create interactive stories, mainly for young female users. The platform now has 150,000 stories, totaling more than 10 billion story views. In Episode, the story is mainly presented in the form of role dialogue, supplemented by simple CG and animation. Players can connect different stories by choosing different answers in each conversation.

However, the limitations of Episode are becoming more and more obvious. Its gameplay is completely a single story experience, and its social attributes are relatively weak. Players use the built-in UGC creation tools to share their own stories or discuss them on the built-in social network. In terms of business model, Episode takes the common form of free and in-house purchase. Players need to wait for several hours to unlock new chapters, otherwise they need to spend money to unlock them directly. In addition, special options and story lines in some stories also need to spend money to unlock them.

Products such as AI Dungeon have explored some new paths in interactivity, sociality and business model because of the addition of AI technology.

For example, in games such as Episode, the interactivity is reflected in the fact that players can enter different story branches according to different choices, but on the whole, the story is linear and fixed, which cannot support multi-person participation.

And "AI Dugeon" has developed an AI model to deal with multiple players through AI technology, which can give feedback on the interaction of different players. In the business model, AI Dungeon provides more advanced AI models as value-added services to players, such as smarter monster AI models. In the traditional RPG game, Krypton’s pet has a numerical advantage over the free player’s pet, but in AI Dungeon, it is characterized by higher intelligence and stronger interaction.

Of course, due to the immaturity of AI technology, players of "AI Dugeon" need to interact with AI in turn, which greatly slows down the overall game rhythm, and when there are too many people, data confusion often occurs, resulting in poor experience.

Therefore, it can be said that at present, the experience upper limit of this kind of AIGC narrative game platform is mainly determined by the AI technology level, and the more preferred productization idea can make up for the experience to some extent, which is also the exploration direction and operational space of Hidden Door as a new generation product.

　　Gansu Baiyin cross-country marathon, 172 people participated and 21 people were killed. How did this "desperate" cross-country race, in which more than 10% of the contestants were killed, happen? Although the search and rescue has been announced to be over, it is undoubtedly difficult to put an end to this incident. Judging from the information released so far, there are still some questions to be solved.

　　Question 1: Why does the weather forecast fail to play an effective early warning role?

　　Some contestants said that the day before the competition, the weather was gloomy, so they consulted the locals. The other party said that it would be sunny after the wind passed, so they didn’t care. Kang Yongxue, director of the Jingtai County Meteorological Bureau, introduced that he provided an information report for the event."gale blue warning".

　　Song Ming, the head of a famous outdoor club in Gansu, said that extreme weather prediction is one of the prerequisites for large-scale sports events to deal with emergencies. The biggest mistake of this incident is that the operators did not correctly predict the early warning provided by the meteorological department.

　　Question 2: Is the track guarantee complete? Is the supply station set up reasonably?

　　Some contestants recalled that after the second punch point, the wind was so strong that they could only grasp the ground with both hands, and they were frozen and stiff, and it was useless to wrap up the insulation blanket until they fainted and lost consciousness. In this cross-country race, a list of equipment was made for the contestants, and warm equipment such as jackets was only used as a suggested option, but not as mandatory equipment.

　　Experts believe that for contestants who don’t bring relevant equipment, they will be caught off guard when they encounter extreme weather. According to the scheduled plan, the contestants arrive at the track supply station at night, and there are no other supply stations in the most dangerous place, which is unreasonable.

　　Question 3: Is it timely for the organizer to stop the competition?

　　Participants all said that they did not receive a notice from the organizer to stop the competition before they lost consciousness or were injured. At 12 o’clock on the 22nd, the contestants posted a distress message in the WeChat group, and the organizer stopped the competition at 14 o’clock.

　　Experts said that what is different from the usual marathon is that this marathon cross-country race is more extreme sports. There should be a plan to suspend or suspend this kind of competition in case of special weather.

　　Question 4: Is there an emergency rescue plan? Is the rescue capability enough?

　　The safety management and emergency rescue of extreme sports events must be highly valued, and relevant departments must strengthen the pre-competition review of rescue plans. Experts believe that from the rescue situation, the rescue guarantee can not arrive at the first time, which is also an important reason for the serious consequences of this event.

　　Sports events not only require athletes to be professional.

　　The professionalism of extreme sports events cannot be just the professionalism of athletes. In the silver incident, 21 people were killed, and there were many top professional athletes among the victims. This is very different from the sudden death of non-professional athletes in many previous marathons. Extreme sports events have a high threshold. Not only the participants need to have physical conditions, professional knowledge and training preparation suitable for the difficulty of the competition, but also have extremely high requirements for the professionalism of the organizers. For example, the meteorological system, first aid system, medical system and security system of the competition must be prepared and prepared in accordance with professional standards. These systems may be used without reserve, but they cannot be used without reserve. Once unprepared, it’s too late to regret.

　　In response to this incident, the State Sports General Administration held an emergency meeting last night, demanding that the risk assessment of sports events be strengthened in the safety management of major events, and that safety work plans and emergency plans be formulated in a targeted manner. It should be said that this requirement is a timely rectification of the barbaric growth of irregular competitions and events. The practice of only paying attention to setting high bonuses to attract athletes to participate in the competition, but unwilling to invest in the most important safety guarantee should be stopped. Only when we are stable can we achieve far-reaching goals, and only when we get rid of barbaric growth can we grow healthily.

In clinical psychological counseling, couples or couples often encounter the problem of separation. The more you consult these questions, the more you can find that there is a natural conflict between love and distance. If we don’t handle it carefully, the probability of love losing to distance is still quite large. Therefore, whether it is a couple in love or an old couple who have been married for many years, it is a problem that we need to face up to and pay attention to.

The following analysis and suggestions can also provide reference for the situation that the family cannot be taken care of for some reasons.

Whether it’s a couple in love or an old couple who have been married for many years, being away from home is a problem that we need to face up to and pay attention to; Image from the network)

Why distance

Have such a great influence on love?

Speaking of this question, I have to talk about three essential elements of perfect love: intimacy, passion and commitment. The three elements of love were put forward by Robert Robert Jeffrey Sternberg, a professor of psychology at Yale University. He pointed out that different stages and types of love can be interpreted as different combinations of these three elements. For example, with the development of two people’s romantic relationship, the focus of each component will change. For example, there will be more passion at first, but gradually, commitment will become more important. Robert Jeffrey Sternberg also found that the duration of a relationship based on a single factor is not as long as that based on two or three factors.

Three elements of love: intimacy, passion and commitment; The size of the triangle indicates the degree of admiration, and the larger the triangle, the higher the degree of admiration; Each horn represents a unique type of love; Different combinations form seven different types of love; Image from the network)

Usually, the intimate relationship with the longest persistence and the highest satisfaction is obtained by the efforts of both partners to maintain intimacy and enhance their sense of responsibility.

In a long-distance relationship, intimacy is easily affected. Sometimes what can be solved by a hug leads to misunderstandings and the accumulation of negative emotions because of the obstacles of emotional expression.

Coupled with the cumulative effect of different living environments and different social circles, over time, it is likely that two people will have less and less common language and it will become more and more difficult to understand each other.

What is even more frightening is that it will wear away trust. There are many uncertain factors for two people who live in different places for a long time, such as a message or phone call that can’t be answered in time, a photo taken with other members of the opposite sex, a lie that hides their whereabouts, and so on, which may lead to the collapse of trust.

Therefore, the lack of intimacy is the key reason why many long-distance relationships lose to distance and time.

How to overcome the troubles in different places?

Then how can we overcome the unfavorable factors brought by different places and maintain a harmonious and long-lasting relationship? We suggest that couples or couples who are experiencing the test in different places need to do the following work:

First, learn to communicate deeply and build a building of trust.

The hardest part to deal with in different places is communication. Many people think that communication mainly depends on language, but in actual communication, the influence of language information is very small, accounting for only about 7%, and tone, facial expression and body account for 93%. Therefore, when two people communicate in different places, it is impossible to fully understand each other’s emotional state, even if it is a video, it lacks the participation of touch and smell, and it is impossible to achieve a comprehensive experience. Therefore, it is very important to improve the depth and efficiency of communication.

For communication in different places, we suggest that the big principle is "report every day, learn to share, and don’t have a cold war".

(The principle of communication in different places: report every day, learn to share, and never have a cold war; Image from the network)

Many couples in different places are busy at work, so it may be unrealistic to report from time to time, but it may become a burden to each other. However, it is necessary to give a brief report every day, especially for men. Before going to bed, they should briefly talk about their day’s situation and the next day’s arrangements, voice messages or short calls. With such a habit, mutual trust will be enhanced.

By sharing your own life, you can let each other know about your living environment and dynamics and enhance each other’s sense of security.

But no matter how good two people are, conflicts are inevitable. Quarrel is not terrible, but couples in different places should not use the cold war to deal with conflicts.

Second, strengthen the sense of ceremony, and farewell is better than marriage.

The preservation of two people’s love needs a sense of ceremony, and it is more urgent for both parties in different places to achieve the state of "a little farewell is better than a new marriage" by strengthening the sense of ceremony.

We can strengthen the sense of ritual in getting along from two aspects, one is to make rules, and the other is to create romance.

You can strengthen the sense of ritual in getting along in two ways: making rules and creating romance; Image from the network)

At the beginning of different places, it is necessary to make some rules to ensure the constant love interaction between two people. For example, talk every day, say good night to each other every day, and make regular video calls; Regarding communication, we must speak out if there are contradictions, instead of holding them in our hearts and fighting for the night; Regarding trust, no matter how busy you are, you should explain it in advance and share it briefly, and you must explain the unexpected situation afterwards. These agreements will subconsciously make us cherish our feelings and make the feelings in different places more stable.

In creating romance, many couples, especially girls, need to feel loved, so don’t ignore each other’s needs and set aside time to take care of her emotions and express their feelings. Properly expressing your thoughts and love for each other can make each other feel cared for. You can also often create some surprises for each other, such as writing a few love words to each other and singing a love song to each other. If you travel frequently, when you meet again, you should buy some carefully selected gifts for the other party, such as what the other party mentioned to you, to let the other party know that you are thinking about her at any time, so as to achieve the effect that parting is better than getting married.

Third, create romantic expectations and give full play to the power of commitment.

For a long-distance relationship, commitment is an important driving force for each other to overcome the current difficulties. If there is no expectation for the future, it is difficult for two people to resist the suffering of loneliness and missing. Therefore, when you are in a different place, you must increase the chances of meeting as much as possible, and before each separation, you can start to create the expectation of meeting next time, and try to be specific and look forward to it together. For example, "Let’s meet in a month, and I’ll cook you a big seafood dinner, so that you can taste my loving cooking skills.".

(When you are in a different place, you must increase the chances of meeting as much as possible, and before each separation, you can start to create the expectation of meeting next time, try to be specific and look forward to it together, but don’t break your promise; Image from the network)

Expectation can be divided into short-term goals and long-term goals.

Short-term goals can be aimed at mutual interests, such as traveling together, shopping together, climbing mountains together, watching movies together, etc. You can make a detailed plan, work together and implement it one by one, so that more connections can be built.

Don’t break your promise, if it doesn’t come true, and blame each other, the balance of your emotional savings account will be less and less.

The long-term goal is about the expectations of being together in the future. Couples in love can look forward to the wedding picture together, how romantic the wedding is, how exquisite the home decoration is, and how interesting the future life will be. For example, "When we get married in the future, we must raise a lovely kitten at home and have a particularly lovely child. I will take pictures of you, the kitten and the child, and I will be very happy when I think about it."

For married couples, how to solve the problem of separation between the two places is a very realistic topic. The other party may understand the needs of temporary career development, but if career development is always put above the needs of the other party, the probability of emotional problems is still very high if two people get together for a long time, so it is necessary to take care of how long to solve the problem in different places and how to make up for each other’s feelings, and give a promise to make the other party really feel at ease.

Original title: "Better Police Body and Mind | How to Keep Love from Losing to Distance"

Read the original text

　　　　Yesterday (2nd) at 3pm, in the consultation room of Beijing Meteorological Bureau, all kinds of cloud pictures and data were constantly switched on the big screen, and several analysts told their forecast views one by one before going on stage. Since the beginning of winter, except for two small-scale snowfalls in the outer suburbs in December 2008, almost no snow has fallen in Beijing, which makes the Spring Festival in 2009 less of a landscape and adds a little disappointment to people who are looking forward to the snowy scene.

　　　　Tomorrow is beginning of spring, and the Lantern Festival will be held in a few days. Will there be a "timely snow" coming to Beijing? Why is it difficult to snow in Beijing this winter? Our reporter interviewed Sun Jisong, the chief forecaster of Beijing Meteorological Bureau, to dispel doubts and doubts about snow.

　　Northwest airflow sings "one-man show"

　　Cause a winter without snow

　　　　Cloudy and sunny-the sky over Beijing is still calm. According to the forecast of Beijing Meteorological Observatory, the weather will be mainly sunny to cloudy this week, and the highest temperature will reach 10 degrees Celsius. Tomorrow will be beginning of spring, and in the more than 100 days since October 24th last year, there have been only two snowfalls in Yanqing in the north and Pinggu in the northeast-December 10th and 23rd, 2008. In the urban area of Beijing, there is still no effective snowfall. Only sporadic snowflakes appeared on December 10 last year, but they were fleeting and the precipitation was only 0.1 mm.

　　　　"This year’s situation is rare, but it is also normal." Sun Jisong, chief forecaster of Beijing Meteorological Observatory, said that historically, the winter precipitation in Beijing has not been large, and the precipitation from December to February of the following year is usually about 10 mm, so it cannot be said that there is no precipitation in winter. Tracing back to history, the last winter with almost no precipitation was in 1970. However, since October 24, 2008, there has been no precipitation in the urban area this winter, which is really rare.

　　　　A report in Sun Jisong’s hand shows that water shortage is not confined to Beijing. This winter, droughts occurred in Hebei, Shanxi, Henan and other places. According to media reports, the current drought has a wide range and a long duration, which is basically rare for many years.

　　　　"It should be said that there is no direct connection between no snow and warm winter." The computer in the consultation room shows that daily maximum temperature in some urban areas of Beijing has exceeded 10 degrees Celsius in the past two days. However, Sun Jisong said that in addition to cold air, the formation of snowfall must have water vapor transportation and appropriate ground temperature, and several factors are indispensable. However, there is no snow this winter, and the main reason is water shortage-the water vapor transportation has been "broken".

　　　　Sun Jisong introduced that from the perspective of Beijing, water vapor mainly comes from two channels. One is the water vapor brought by the southwest warm and humid airflow from the south of the Yangtze River, especially the snowfall, which often has the characteristics of large snowfall and long snowfall time, and often becomes the "main force" factor of snowfall in Beijing; The other source of water vapor is the water vapor brought by the easterly airflow from the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea. However, due to its short transport length, its snowfall is characterized by a small amount of snow.

　　　　Since December last year, there have been four cold waves sweeping the city, but all of them are mainly cooled by strong winds. "This winter, the northwest wind is mainly prevalent in Beijing, which is not conducive to the transportation of these two streams of water vapor. However, the easterly wind or southwest wind formed occasionally through the change of atmospheric circulation has basically not formed this year, so the water vapor transportation has basically been broken. " Sun Jisong said that the Chibi-style "sudden change of the wind and cloud" is pitiful, and it has not been encountered once this winter, which can be said to be "reasonable and unexpected".

　　　　Investigate and dispel doubts

　　Four conjectures about "No Snow"

　　　　Conjecture 1

　　Is it possible to snow on the fifteenth day of the first month?

　　　　On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year’s Eve, in a ski resort in Mentougou, Mona Lee skated with several friends. The only thing that made him regret was that the mountains beside the ski resort were bare. "I can’t even take a picture of Zhang Xuejing. There is no snow outside the slide. It is artificial at first glance."

　　　　In many people’s minds, snow and Chinese New Year are inseparable. If there are no snowflakes, the taste of the year will be much less. In the snow-free winter, can we make up for everyone’s regrets at the Lantern Festival? Sun Jisong, chief forecaster of Beijing Meteorological Observatory, said that such a wish may be difficult to realize. From the analysis of the current data, it is unlikely that it will snow in the next ten days or so, that is, during the Lantern Festival.

　　　　"But we can’t say that there is no hope at all." Sun Jisong said that due to the rapid change of atmospheric circulation, there may be changes, but from the whole circulation background, it is difficult for water vapor in the south to reach Beijing. There may be a small amount of precipitation in central and southern Hebei and southwestern Shanxi. "But if snowfall wants to come to Beijing, I am afraid it is still difficult to achieve."

　　　　Conjecture 2

　　"Sequela" of Meteorological Intervention?

　　　　"More than a thousand rockets were fired at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games to eliminate the rain. It won’t eliminate all the rain in a year, will it?" Some netizens questioned whether large-scale artificial intervention in the weather would have a "sequela" to the overall climate. For such a question, Sun Jisong said that in the face of nature, the intervention that human beings can do is extremely small and it is impossible to have an impact on long-term climate change. "In fact, every time it rains, we basically carry out precipitation enhancement operations." Sun Jisong said that due to the long-term drought in the northern region, basically every precipitation process throughout the year, the relevant departments will carry out precipitation enhancement operations, and the snowfall process is no exception. If there is snow, artificial "snow increase" measures will be taken. According to media reports, from February 1 ST to February 2 nd, the weather modification department of Luoyang City, Henan Province seized the opportunity of weak cold air crossing the border and successfully implemented artificial precipitation enhancement. "But only when there is water in the sky can we make it fall to the ground as much as possible."

　　　　Guess 3

　　Is the Three Gorges Project the Source of Extreme Weather?

　　　　In recent years, the term "extreme weather" has appeared more and more in public, and the coincidence of these extreme weather occurrences and the completion time of the Three Gorges Dam also makes many people suspect that the Three Gorges Dam is the source of extreme weather.

　　　　"The problem of the Three Gorges is a cliche, but from a scientific point of view, the statement that the Three Gorges caused extreme weather is unfounded." Climate change often involves thousands of kilometers in Fiona Fang. Compared with this climate background, Sun Jisong described the Three Gorges as a small "puddle", and it is difficult to have any impact on the overall climate if there is such a puddle.

　　　　"At present, most climatologists believe that global warming will cause an increase in extreme weather." With global warming, the frequency of extreme weather is increasing, but how global warming affects the appearance of extreme weather and what is the inevitable relationship between them is still an unsolved mystery.

　　　　Guess 4

　　Beijing this summer

　　Will there be a drought?

　　　　Is there a scientific truth behind the poetic folk proverbs, such as "Yun Zheyue on August 15th, the lights on the fifteenth day of the first month when it snows" and "It doesn’t snow when it’s cold, and the fields crack when it’s summer"?

　　　　"Folk proverbs are more similar to statistical induction, and some of them have some truth," Sun Jisong said. The predictions in folk proverbs are not necessarily correct, and winter drought does not mean that summer drought will continue. "The weather on a certain day is not necessarily related to the weather on a certain day in a few months."

　　　　"However, the lack of snowfall will increase the possibility of pests and diseases, which will have a negative impact on the growth of overwintering crops. From this perspective, it will indeed have a certain impact on agriculture if it does not snow in winter." Snow-free winter not only has less flavor, but also lack of snow can cause many problems. In an interview with the media, Pan Jiahua, director of the Urban Development and Environment Research Center of China Academy of Social Sciences, said that precipitation will make the living environment worse and seriously restrict social production. "Although warming in winter can shorten the heating time and reduce related expenses, its disadvantages still outweigh its advantages."

　　Investigation reminder

　　Watch out for colds when it’s dry and snowy.

　　　　During the Spring Festival, Dr. He, who works in a community hospital, was busy. Due to the dry air, the number of patients with sudden respiratory diseases suddenly increased during the Spring Festival. Every day, the hospital received dozens of patients who had infusion bottles, and the top three hospitals were crowded. Experts said that due to the low air humidity, some viruses are easy to reproduce and easily lead to a series of diseases. During the Spring Festival in Beijing Children’s Hospital, an average of nearly 5000 children came to see a doctor every day. On the first normal outpatient day after the festival, more than 4,000 outpatient visits were made in the morning alone. Among them, children with respiratory tract infection are the most.

　　　　"It doesn’t snow, which is very bad for human health." Doctors at Chaoyang Hospital in Beijing said that because of the dry air, people are prone to chapped lips, bleeding nostrils and itchy throat. When the air humidity is lower than 40%, the respiratory mucosa of the nose and lungs will be dehydrated and the elasticity will be reduced, making dust, bacteria, etc. easily attached to the mucosa, stimulating the throat and causing cough.

　　　　However, the spread of cold will be accelerated because of the accelerated reproduction of influenza virus in dry environment and its survival on floating dust. However, due to the failure of "wet deposition", urban air pollution will be serious and respiratory diseases such as asthma and pneumonia will be easily caused.

　　　　"The way to prevent diseases is a cliche, but many people always pay no attention." Experts say that opening windows regularly to ventilate and maintain indoor humidity will help prevent diseases. At the same time, we should try to avoid going to crowded areas. People with respiratory diseases should wear masks when going out.

Northeast continues to "steam sauna"　

On August 1st, the high temperature occurred in Shenyang, Liaoning Province for the fifth consecutive day. The highest temperatures in Dandong and Dalian reached 37.3℃ and 36.9℃ respectively, setting a meteorological record for extreme values. At the same time, the highest temperature in Shenyang today may reach 37℃, which will set a new record for the local extreme highest temperature in August (the previous record was 35.7℃).

Liaoning suffered the strongest regional high temperature since 1961.

In addition, with the continuous expansion of high temperature, the temperature in Changchun may reach 36℃ on the 3rd, which will not only set a new high this year, but also become the hottest day in the local observation history in August. The high temperature in Changchun in August is very rare, and there has been only one high temperature on August 3, 1968 since it was recorded in 1951.

The temperature in North China is also constant.

In addition to the northeast, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and northern Shandong will also have high temperatures in the next three days, and the highest temperatures in Beijing, Tianjin, Shijiazhuang and Jinan will remain at 35 C or above.

On the 1st, Beijing spent the 17th high-temperature day this year, which was the same as last year’s high-temperature days, and it was seven days short of the 24 high-temperature days recorded in 2000. Monitoring shows that the highest temperature in the observatory in the southern suburbs reaches 37℃, and that in Fengtai reaches 38.3℃.

Affected by the continuous high temperature, as of 12: 30 on the 1st, the load of Beijing power grid has reached 23.064 million kilowatts, exceeding the 22.675 million kilowatts on July 31st, reaching a new high.

The temperature in North China is high during the day and not low at night, and the lowest temperature is mostly above 26℃, and Tianjin will exceed 28℃. Moreover, due to the high relative humidity, the somatosensory temperature is higher, and the sultry feeling is not inferior to that in the south.

The Central Meteorological Observatory predicts that in five days, the hot weather in the above-mentioned areas in the north will end. This round of high-temperature weather lasts for a long time, and the high temperature in some areas breaks the extreme value. People in the above areas need to be prepared for heatstroke prevention and cooling, and try to avoid going out at the hottest noon. If they have to go out, they should take sun protection measures and replenish water in time. Outdoor workers prepare some heatstroke prevention drugs for emergencies.

The high temperature area in the south has been significantly reduced, and it has made a comeback since the 4 th

For many places in the south that have been suffering from high temperature for nearly half a month, they will enjoy a short coolness in the past two days. Affected by a wide range of rain and the wind and rain brought by the typhoon "Lark", the high temperature area in the south will continue to shrink in the past two days.

On the 2 nd, the western and southern parts of Jiangnan and most of southern China withdrew from the high temperature. On the 3rd, only parts of northern Chongqing, northeastern Hubei and northwestern Jiangxi still have a small range of high temperatures, and the rest areas will basically end the high temperatures temporarily. In the area of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, the highest temperature in many places dropped to around 30℃.

Although the high temperature in the south has shrunk, the highest temperature in many places is still around 33℃, and the sultry feeling will continue. At the same time, the cooling time is very short. Starting from the 4th, the high temperature in the south will return strongly. At present, it is in the middle of the sky, and high temperature is the main theme. People in the southern region need to continue to prepare for heatstroke prevention and cooling.

The World Meteorological Organization issued statements on July 26th and 27th, respectively, saying that extreme weather events such as high temperature, drought and catastrophic precipitation occurred one after another in many places around the world, among which drought and high temperature also aggravated the wildfire disaster in the northern hemisphere. These extreme weather have brought great adverse effects on human health, agriculture and ecosystem.

It’s hot in the North Pole, too! Rare high temperature in Arctic Circle

From June to July this year, the temperature in many places around the world, including the Arctic Circle, generally rose, resulting in extremely hot weather.

Recently, the temperature in the Arctic Circle in northern Sweden once reached 30℃. In northern Siberia, the temperature reached 32℃ at the beginning of this month. In the same period of last year, the average temperature in this area was only 10℃.

According to the monitoring data of the National Snow and Ice Data Center of the United States, the abnormal high temperature further aggravated the sea ice melting phenomenon in the Arctic Circle this summer, and the sea ice in the northern European coast and northwestern Russia has shown an abnormally low trend. The decrease of sea ice will not only threaten the survival of polar bears and other creatures, but also further aggravate the abnormal weather in the northern hemisphere.

Europe suffers from high temperature and drought.

In addition to western Europe and southern Europe, which suffer from heat waves, northern Europe is also experiencing continuous high temperatures. In July, the temperature in the Arctic Circle reached 30℃. On July 17th, the temperature in parts of Norway reached a record 33.5℃. Due to the unusually dry and warm climate, forest fire risks in Scandinavia and the Baltic Sea continue to rise. There were about 50 forest fires in Sweden in mid-July. The World Meteorological Organization predicts that the temperature in northern Europe will be 3℃ to 6℃ higher than that in the same period of last year.

The temperature in Sweden reached 86 degrees Fahrenheit (30 degrees Celsius) in July, and there were more than 50 forest fires, of which more than 10 occurred in the Arctic Circle. (Source: Beijing News)

There are high temperatures above 30℃ in many places in Britain, even as high as 38℃. In addition, the weather in Britain is extremely dry. By the end of July, there was no rain in many places in Britain for nearly two months, and the rainfall was only 47 mm after the summer, making it the driest summer in the past 57 years. According to the statistics of the British medical department, thousands of people died of diseases related to high temperature this summer.

The Asian heat wave struck, and many people died in Japan, South Korea and other countries.

Japan has recently been hit by a heat wave after the worst rainstorm and flood in decades. Due to the control of a wide range of high pressure, the temperature in Japan has repeatedly set a new record. On July 15th, the highest temperature of 200 meteorological observation stations of Japan Meteorological Agency exceeded 35℃. On July 23rd, the highest temperature of 41.1℃ was observed in Kumagaya, saitama, and high temperatures exceeding 40℃ were also observed in Qingmei City, Tokyo, Jiafu City, Yamanashi Prefecture and Tojima City, Gifu Prefecture. According to the statistics of Kyodo News Agency, from July 16 to 25, more than 22,000 people in Japan were sent to hospital for heatstroke, of which 78 people died of heatstroke.

South Korea’s extensive high-temperature weather continued, and the Korea Meteorological Agency issued a high-temperature warning for several days. Statistics from the Korea Disease Management Headquarters from May 20th to July 21st showed that there were 1043 people suffering from heatstroke, up 61% year-on-year. More than ten people have died of heatstroke this year. The South Korean government is considering classifying extreme heat as the same category of natural disasters as typhoons, floods, tsunamis and earthquakes.

According to the news from the Central Meteorological Observatory of North Korea, high temperature began to appear in North Korea on July 15th, and the scope gradually expanded. On July 22nd, the average highest temperature in North Korea reached 34.6℃, 7.2℃ higher than in previous years, the highest temperature since 1981. Among them, the average temperature in several big cities is higher than 39℃, and Yuanshan City has reached.

The high temperature in Africa and North America is over 50℃ in some areas.

At the beginning of July, several North African countries also experienced heat waves. On July 5th, the highest temperature in Valgra in the Sahara Desert of Algeria reached 51.3℃. According to the World Meteorological Organization, this is the highest temperature since Algeria has reliable temperature records. On July 3, Morocco monitored a high temperature of 43.4℃.

At the same time, North America has not been spared. California suffered a record high temperature, and the highest temperature records in many cities were refreshed. Death Valley National Park in California, which set a record for the highest temperature in the world at 56.7℃ in July 1913, has observed a high temperature of 52℃ on July 8 this year. The highest temperature in Chino, a suburb of Los Angeles, reached a record 48.9℃. In Quebec, Canada, hot and humid weather caused dozens of deaths, including the elderly and the vulnerable.

On July 6, 2018, California, USA, a heat wave of 48℃ swept through southern California, and the heat index off the charts set a new record. People gathered in Huntington Beach to play in the water to cool off the heat. (Source: Oriental IC)

High temperature and drought aggravate wildfire disaster in the northern hemisphere

According to a statement issued by the World Meteorological Organization on July 27th, many serious wildfires have occurred in Siberia, Sweden, Greece, the United States, Canada and other places since the summer of this year due to high temperature and drought, and the fire area is still increasing.

According to the monitoring data of Fengyun-3 D star on July 29th, there were two fire spots in Murmansk region in northwest Russia, both located along the Arctic Ocean and in the Arctic Circle. The influence area of the two fires is 4 square kilometers, and the area of naked fire is 0.1 hectares. (Source: National Satellite Meteorological Center)

The warming rate in the northern hemisphere is faster than the global level, and the high temperature and drought make the forest more dry and flammable. Studies have found that forests in the northern hemisphere are burning at a speed that has not been seen in at least nearly 10 thousand years. Wildfires release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, further aggravating global warming.

Extreme weather is frequent or due to climate warming

Recently, in addition to high temperature, other abnormal weather events have also appeared frequently. For example, at the end of June, snow fell in Newfoundland and parts of Cape Breton in eastern Canada, with a thickness of about two centimeters. The temperature in St. John and Halifax is only MINUS 1℃, breaking the record of low temperature. Such weather is rare, and it is the first time since 1996.

Why does extreme weather ravage the world? The World Meteorological Organization believes that frequent extreme weather is related to climate change caused by greenhouse gas emissions. Although it is difficult to simply attribute the frequent occurrence of extreme weather in the past two months to climate change caused by human activities, in the long run, the trend of extreme high temperature and increasing precipitation is undoubtedly caused by climate change.

"2018 will be one of the hottest years on record, and it is not surprising that temperatures in many countries have broken records. At present, the heat wave and extreme high temperature events we are experiencing are consistent with the results we expected from climate change caused by greenhouse gas emissions. This situation is not going to happen in the future, but a scene that is being experienced at all times. " Elena Monankova, Deputy Secretary-General of the World Meteorological Organization, said.

In northern Siberia, along the coast of the Arctic Ocean, model analysis shows that a high temperature of over 90 degrees Fahrenheit appeared on July 5, 40 degrees Fahrenheit higher than the normal temperature. In Ouargla, Algeria, the temperature reached 124.3 degrees Fahrenheit (51.3 degrees Celsius), breaking the previous African high temperature record of 123.3 degrees Fahrenheit (50.7 degrees Celsius).

　　Half a month after the arrival of the new car with a price of 360,000 yuan, there were many bulges in the paint of the whole car. Recently, Ms. Yang, the owner of Suzhou, was caught in a long dispute because of the quality problem of the new car. She told The Paper that after the incident, the 4S shop tested the car many times, and the test results changed again and again. So far, an authoritative test report has not been given, and she asked the 4S shop to return the car, which was also rejected.

　　In this regard, on November 19, a relevant person in charge of Suzhou Zhongsheng Wohao Automobile Sales Co., Ltd., a 4S shop involved, said that the reason for the bulging of automobile paint has not yet been ascertained, but according to the national automobile three-guarantee policy, it has not yet reached the standard of returning cars, and only the bulging position of automobiles can be repaired.

　　The staff of Volvo Car Customer Service Center didn’t respond to the quality problem of car paint, saying that if there is a problem with the car, the customer needs to negotiate with the dealer to solve it. Whether to return the car or not will be judged according to the national car three-guarantee policy and process.

　　There is a quality problem in picking up the car for half a month, and the change of car is rejected.

　　In August this year, Ms. Yang bought a new Volvo xc60 car in Suzhou Zhongsheng Wohao Automobile Sales 4S Store, and the landing price was about 360,000 yuan. However, half a month after picking up the car, Ms. Yang found that there was a problem with the car paint. "First, there was a bulge in some parts of the car. At that time, I thought it was glued, so I didn’t care much."

　　The small drum bag appeared in the car. The pictures in this article are provided by the respondents.

　　The real problem was found at the end of September this year, when Ms. Yang sent her new car to a car wash shop for cleaning. She told The Paper that during the cleaning, the car wash master told her in confusion, "This car looks like a new car. Why are there so many bulges on the body?" Under the reminder of the car wash master, Ms. Yang found that those places that looked like "sticky dirt" were originally small bags that were raised one by one. These small bags appeared in many places in the whole car, and some small bags were densely connected together, making the car look like "acne" and the surface was uneven.

　　There are hundreds of bulges in the whole car paint.

　　A mechanic told The Paper that the problem of bulging of automobile paint surface generally appeared in older cars. "For example, if the primer was sprayed with topcoat before it was dry, such a problem would easily occur. However, the new car has not been seen before, and the painting of the new car before leaving the factory is computerized, which is unlikely to happen. " He said that if the bulging problem is not dealt with in time, the area will gradually expand, which may eventually lead to the paint falling off in many places.

　　At the beginning of October, Ms. Yang drove the car to Suzhou Zhongsheng Wohao Automobile Sales and Sales 4S shop for testing. She told The Paper that the technicians polished the bulging parts of many car paints, and did not solve the problem of bulging. "At that time, the technicians said that this was not an external (paint) problem, but an internal problem."

　　Ms. Yang said that she asked for a car change on the spot, and the 4S shop also said that it would not shirk its responsibility. In the live recording provided by Ms. Yang, it can be heard that the staff of the 4S store said that "they will not shirk their responsibilities". In the recording, Ms. Yang’s lover mentioned that "these points are bulging from the inside, and now they are all cobwebs". The staff of the 4S store also agreed and repeatedly admitted that they can take responsibility on behalf of the manufacturers.

　　At the end of October, the 4S shop contacted Ms. Yang again to test the car to determine whether the car was self-painted. Ms. Yang said that after the on-site painter’s appraisal, it was determined that the car had no traces of self-painting. "At that time, we also put forward the demand of changing cars. The 4S shop said that it would bear the responsibility, but we still need to wait for the appraisal results of Volvo manufacturers."

　　At the end of November, under the remote guidance of Volvo factory technicians, the 4S shop tested the car for the third time. "The manufacturer first asked for polishing to see if these bulges were stuck on it, but polishing did not solve the problem. On the spot, the staff of the 4S shop repeatedly told the manufacturer that this was an internal problem, not an external one." Ms. Yang said that after the polishing failed, the manufacturer’s technicians proposed to cut the paint surface of the bulging part for inspection. However, after cutting the bulging part to the white metal layer, there were still problems. "At that time, the technicians of the 4S shop told us that there was a problem with the primer, which led to the bulging of the paint surface. If there is a problem with the primer, it can be said that the problem lies before the car leaves the factory. "

　　Ms. Yang told The Paper that the staff of the on-site 4S shop said that the test report issued by Volvo manufacturers would be available the next day after the test, and the solution would be determined according to the test report. However, since then, Ms. Yang has repeatedly urged that the 4S store always responded with "the manufacturer has not provided it yet, and we will follow up".

　　On November 16, Ms. Yang called the 4S shop again, and the staff gave the manufacturer’s test conclusion orally. According to the telephone recording provided by Ms. Yang, the staff of the 4S shop said: "Now the analysis is that both the tail and the fender of the car have bulging problems, but the tail and the fender are not painted by a supplier, and both of them have problems. It is initially determined that it is caused by the external environment, not the paint itself."

　　This statement made Ms. Yang unacceptable. "After checking for more than a month, the master had already said that there was a problem with the primer. Now, not only did she fail to give a qualitative reason, but she also shirked the responsibility to the external environment?" In addition, Ms. Yang said that she had repeatedly asked for a test report, but none of the 4S stores could provide it.

　　4S shop: Why did the car paint bulge appear? The reason has not been found out yet.

　　In view of the above situation, on November 19th, The Paper contacted Suzhou Zhongsheng Wohao Automobile Sales 4S Store, and a relevant person in charge of the store said that the specific reason for the problem of Ms. Yang’s car has not been found out yet. "There has never been a problem of new car paint bulging before, and we are now investigating with manufacturers whether it is a production line problem or a paint surface corrosion pollution."

　　The person in charge said that in the previous testing process, 4S shop technicians pointed out that it was a problem of primer coating. This was a personal judgment made by the technicians and could not be used as a qualitative reason. Only the testing report issued by the manufacturer could be used as an authoritative report. He said that the reason why the test report was not provided to Ms. Yang was because she was going through the stamping process and could show it after the stamping. If Ms. Yang could not accept the test results at that time, the 4S shop agreed to have the vehicle tested by the Quality Supervision Bureau.

　　At present, the 4S store thinks that Ms. Yang’s request for car replacement can’t be satisfied, and said that she has never promised Ms. Yang’s request for car replacement before. "We can deal with the bulging place of the car and let the car drive beautifully on the road, but if it is required to return the car, it has not yet reached the requirements for car replacement in the three-guarantee policy of the car, and we can’t return the car."

　　Regarding the 4S shop’s statement, Ms. Yang insisted that she only accepted changing cars or returning cars. "Our new car has problems for half a month. Now there are more than 100 bulging places in the car, which are polished and cut. It is completely unrecognizable. Even if it is painted, the new car looks like a used car." Ms. Yang believes that the problem of bulging is obviously the quality problem of the car itself.

　　Is the new car paint bulge a quality defect of the vehicle? The reporter from The Paper called Volvo Car Customer Service Center for many times, but the staff who contacted for many times did not respond for reasons such as "feedback to relevant departments" and "no authority to express their views". Regarding Ms. Yang’s request for car replacement, the staff said that the dealer is a window for direct customer service on behalf of the manufacturer. It is suggested that customers negotiate with the dealer, and whether to return the car or not will be judged according to the national three-guarantee policy and process.

　　On November 20th, the reporter from The Paper inquired about the Quality Control Section of Wuzhong District Market Supervision Administration, Suzhou. The staff of this section said that the quality problems of automobiles can be solved according to the automobile three guarantees policy. Regarding the quality problems of the new car proposed by Ms. Yang, the staff said that they would arrange quality inspectors to conduct an investigation and then give a response after the investigation.
