Liu Buchen, industry observers: Toward appliance industry hot

 

Recently, the home appliance industry, more things, first the two companies in Japan and on the plasma

Liquid crystal

Who is the main direction of controversy; and then a

Magazine

"China

Home appliance chain

Enterprises' category

Financial

Enterprise ', "saying to

States United States

,

Suning

Enraged; then there is Hitachi's "currently on the market

Sell

Most of the plasma standard definition TV, "saying, attracted an onslaught of sound domestic enterprises. These two days, it was rumored

Changhong

, Amoi defected to switch to HD-

DVD

Camp news, as well as the United States without authorization, Guangzhou, China price cuts led to several

TV

Events such as corporate joint sanctions. It should be said, something the Chinese home appliance industry, concentrated in crowded together.

How to treat the problem, revealing behind the problem, what message? Domestic well-known industry observer, Guangzhou, the army attack plan

Business management

Consultant Co., Ltd. Mr. Liu Buchen, director of strategy on these issues were analyzed.

Q: how do you see the two companies in Japan and on the plasma

LCD TV

In the end who can flat-panel TV development on behalf of the debate?

Liu: First of all, I think controversy is good, some things have to argue to figure out why, although no final conclusion of this debate, but at least let us leave the final conclusion one step closer.

Not the final answer does not mean plasma and LCD not equal. In fact, more and more facts show that, LCD TVs of the future direction of the mainstream flat-panel TV.

Present, the global LCD TV sales is about 3 times the plasma, the Chinese basically a ratio that is most telling. In addition, from the industrial layout view, LCD TV production, supply capacity is far greater than the plasma; Also, consumer awareness of the LCD more than plasma. These have determined the future development of space crystal is much greater than plasma.

"Plasma School" reason: the 40-inch plasma big screen than the LCD field advantage. Now see, this argument less and less established. Because more than 50 inches LCD TV also began mass production, and large, the patent is not plasma, LCD may in future Zaochu bigger screen. So, we basically can say this: the advantages of Plasma LCD basically has, and the advantages of LCD Plasma does not have, and this is the mainstream flat-panel LCD will grow as the reason lies.

Q: Just a little note that we will find, in this debate, between Chinese enterprises do not intend to play the role of embarrassment, that is: the level of synchronization and the world since that Chinese enterprises actually burst with aphasia. Why is the representative of plasma and LCD flat panel who question the mainstream, not hear the voice of Chinese enterprises? This is a neglect it? Chinese enterprises in the end how much time in the flat voice?

Liu: I think Chinese companies aphasia in reason, because we did not have the right to speak. We must recognize that the Chinese enterprises in the era of flat-panel TV and CRT did not change the situation of the vulnerable age of technology, does not recognize this is to ignore the facts.

This means that Chinese companies say there is no advantage, we do not own advantage? Yes, there is no advantage in the current market share of LCD TV to occupy the bulk of it?

However, we have to their advantage to have a clear understanding, it should be noted that our strength depends largely on the

Marketing

Level, rather than the level of technological and industrial chain. Our role is to technology "introduced by" instead of "developer", which determines the trend we can not guide the industry, Chinese companies have not yet eligible among the "global flat-panel TV club." In addition, industry

Chain

Lack of structure, leading to our flat-panel TV industry has great dependence of foreign enterprises, which are our weakness.

Perhaps we do not want to acknowledge the reality behind China's flat panel TVs. Here are a message from one reflects China's color TV enterprises actual technical innovation. Some time ago, Chinese Academy of Sciences, jointly sponsored by Ministry of Science and other units of independent innovation capability of Chinese enterprises survey concluded cause for regret: China and South Korea before the start of science and technology in ten years

Strategy

However, today's Republic of Korea has been

Semiconductor

, Consumer electronics, automotive and communications industries have established their own technology

Competition

Advantage, however, Chinese companies have to stay level in the processing and assembly. TV business is no exception.

So, I have been a worry: the flat-panel TV competition, Chinese enterprises in the end be able to go far? Will repeat the local community

Mobile

The mistakes? Ask the question, absolutely not alarmist.

Q: Not long ago, an article of the Chinese home appliance chain profit model, that the home appliance chain of survival is supported by cash flow, the article called the home appliance chain "type of financial enterprises", according to your of how to see?

Cao Yuan Zheng: China's economy next year, SMEs should be Baotuan the most difficult winter

December 15, 2008 Promotion of SMEs in Guangdong Province, "organized by Lingnan Commercial Road," Forum, Bank of China (601,988, stock it) Cao Yuan Zheng, chief economist at International Holdings Limited (see above), Dr. noted that the most optimistic estimate is that the West will enter recession in two years, while the pessimistic estimate is that this crisis will last ten years. He expects the Chinese economy next year will experience the most difficult year. Guangdong SMEs, only on technological progress, together with the entire industry cluster "Baotuan winter" can weather the crisis.

Cao Yuan Zheng said that China's economic structure in the United States and to some extent the formation of "complementary cycle." China's "low cost" exports form a "surplus", but these "surplus" of financial products through the re-"flow back" the United States, resulting in long-term U.S. interest rates further to stimulate the U.S. "debt" effect. Now the U.S. subprime mortgage finance real estate "bubble" burst led to the sharp decline in their physical needs of the economy, and now the arrangements for the cycle was "broke" the. Dependent on exports to the U.S. pressing China's economic structural adjustment, the two sides complement each other to re-find the balance point of the economic structure.

On the financial crisis on China's economy, Cao Yuan Zheng that the impact of China's financial system is not great, but the impact on the real economy is much, much more complex. "The real winter may be just beginning, next year should be the most difficult year."

Exports to China to combat the unprecedented

Cao Yuan Zheng said that the short term, the financial crisis on China's economic structure, the greatest impact, given the change in orientation and the growth of domestic economy but also for some time, and is expected to be the most difficult year. He predicted China's GDP growth next year may be 8%. If the adjustment well, there may be more than 8%.

Cao Yuan Zheng believes that the most optimistic estimate is that the West will enter recession in two years, while the pessimistic estimate is that this crisis will last ten years. In the current round of economic restructuring, China should use its three advantages. First, China's international balance of payments in good condition, the Government have the ability to make the right adjustments on the economy. Second, China has 1.3 billion people, the government should promptly set up security system covering the whole of society people can really promote consumption. The current rate of savings of Chinese residents account for 60% of total GDP, so there is a great release of the consumer space. China is still in the process of industrialization and urbanization, railways and other infrastructure is still a huge space.

"The current financial crisis on the West against China's export sector is unprecedented." Cao Yuan Zheng said. Western financial crisis of shrinking markets have seriously affected China's exports, because China relies heavily on exports to the U.S. in the past the United States, "Mao Yin food grain" of consumption patterns. With the U.S. dollar, the euro's long-term depreciation of the RMB, China's export sector, with greater pressure.

Sharp drop in the face of Western demands, Guangdong's export-oriented SMEs have to make "adequate preparations for winter," Cao Yuan Zheng said the majority of SMEs have to rely on technological progress, relying on independent intellectual property break a new path. Particularly in the SME financing, SME must proceed from the "supply chain" and "cluster" with regard to credit guarantee institutions. Cao Yuan Zheng pointed out that the current Western economic restructuring means that there have been "industry sector transfer" to the emerging countries, local governments and enterprises should pay close attention to these opportunities.

Greece vacation rentals – the best place for your holiday!

Have you ever wondered why the Greeks are such long-livers and always look shiny and happy? Those lightly-tanned people with black hair and pearly teeth seem to be full of vigor in every time of the year. No matter what happens, they take it with a smile and live on under the hot Greek sun.
Of course, I will tell you the reason behind all this, but don’t blame me for that you will be eager to see and feel it by yourself for sure.
It is the spirit of Greece. Yes, I know, it sounds quite trivial, but believe me, after you have stepped onto the dry soil of that country and taken a deep breath of the hot and nectarean air, you will never regret you took the first flight right after reading this article and came to Greece.
What is so outstanding about this country except, of course, the people, who host a great variety of Greece holiday villas, by the way? One can never underestimate the role of Hellas in making the modern world what it used to be nowadays. The dawn of western European civilization started exactly there. All those poets, philosophers, generals, rulers and even the commons took their part in creating an unimaginable legacy for the descendants. And I believe there is no person who wouldn’t have heard about the famous Greek mythology. Gods and titans, heroes and demigods plotting or spooning, fighting bravely on the battlefields or stabbing one another in the back, falling in love or dying from jealousy… Seriously, you should read those tales, but nothing is compared to seeing what has become of it now with your very own eyes.
The ancient culture and architecture of Greece lies presently in ruins. Time is a ruthless thing. Some sights have preserved almost every part of its original beauty, and some look like a pile of stones, but all of them once were masterpieces of architects and sculptors of the heyday of the immemorial Greece. You will find a lot of sights to catch your eye, such as Acropolis of Athens, the Parthenon, Propylae, The Karyatides, Temple of Zeus and many others.
The next important question is where to stay? Well, all the hotels say in one voice that they’ve got the lowest prices and the best conditions, but is it worth listening to it?.. I say hotels are the last place to search for a good accommodation, especially if you are expecting to have a nice holiday at the seaside. Just imagine the crowded narrow hotel corridors filled with sweaty vacationers and running and yelling children, broken air conditioner in your room (or humming like a jet plane – don’t know what is worse), dull-faced maids, waiting only for a high tip and a lot of other unpleasant surprises. And furthermore, for all this you will be charged like a king who urgently needed a place to stay. If I were you I would never choose a hotel. Especially when there is such a diversity of Greece vacation rentals, which are run by really wonderful and hospitable hosts. Remember what I told about the people of Greece? This is the most appropriate chance to be convinced by their frankness and open-heartedness. And all the advantages of the individual accommodation will be available to you. You decide how to spend your time without depending on any schedule. And namely that is the ultimate purpose of any vacation – freedom!
So visit Gulivers.com and see how many possibilities there are for your holiday to be absolutely great! And if you are a vacation rental owner, then it is a good opportunity to expose your property effectively and absolutely free!

Christie Pits

1933 riot

Main article: Riot at Christie Pits

On August 16, 1933, Christie Pits was the scene of a six-hour riot, mostly between the Anglo-Canadian Pit Gang (also called the Swastika-Club) and the predominantly Jewish Spadina Avenue Gang which also included many Italian members. One of the baseball diamonds was being used for a series of softball games between two local amateur teams, one of which predominantly consisted of Jewish players. Two nights earlier, at the first game of the series, there had been a display of a swastika and police were warned that there could be trouble at the second game. Those warnings were ignored, and after the second game, a blanket with a large swastika painted on it was displayed by members of the Pit Gang. The Spadina Avenue Gang at the game responded to the display, and a riot ensued. The Toronto Daily Star captured the event the next day,

“While groups of Jewish and Gentile youths wielded fists and clubs in a series of violent scraps for possession of a white flag bearing a swastika symbol at Willowvale Park last night, a crowd of more than 10,000 citizens, excited by cries of eil Hitler became suddenly a disorderly mob and surged wildly about the park and surrounding streets, trying to gain a view of the actual combatants, which soon developed in violence and intensity of racial feeling into one of the worst free-for-alls ever seen in the city. Scores were injured, many requiring medical and hospital attention. Heads were opened, eyes blackened and bodies thumped and battered as literally dozens of persons, young or old, many of them non-combatant spectators, were injured more or less seriously by a variety of ugly weapons in the hands of wild-eyed and irresponsible young hoodlums, both Jewish and Gentile”.

A Heritage Toronto plaque was presented to commemorate the 75th anniversary in August 2008. The riot underscored the xenophobic attitudes toward Jews and other non-Anglo-Saxon immigrants. Jews represented the largest minority in Toronto in 1933 and were thus a target of xenophobic, non-Jewish residents. The riot at Christie Pits occurred during the rise of Hitler and the swastika symbol in Germany. The riot also coincided with a growing presence of the Swastika Club on Toronto beaches and ethnic resistance in the Spadina-College district. News headlines and articles describing the brutalities against Jews in Germany were described in Toronto newspapers. Locally, the rise of the Swastika Club and their media attention in Toronto newspapers had weakened racial tolerance by popularizing the debate over the swastika. Finally, the riot at Christie Pits underlined the long-term ethnic tension that had been festering in Toronto for many years.

Tobogganing in progress

Friends of Christie Pits Park

In August of 2007 a Friends of Christie Pits Park group was formed. It is currently active in organizing events and advocating on behalf of the Park.

Ballpark

A smaller baseball diamond is located next to the washroom facilities. There are three baseball fields at the Pits. The large and main venue is in the northeast corner of the park. The field has limited seating capacity with bench seats along the first and third bases with most spectators sitting along the grass hills. A wood broadcast booth is located at the top of the northeast corner. There are no change rooms at this field, players change in the washrooms near the concession stand beyond centre field. The park hosts the Toronto Maple Leafs of Intercounty Baseball, U of T’s Varsity Blues, and local high school games.

On February 2, 2010 it was announced that the main ballpark at Christie Pits would be named “Dominico Field” in honor of longtime owners of the IBL Maple Leafs; Jack and Lynne Dominico. There will be a ceremony during a Maple Leafs home game May 9th to make it official.
