Chinese film “Niu Lai” turns viral flop into box-office hit_我的网站

A |     (ECNS) -- The animated film Niu Lai has become an unlikely sensation after its daily box office of just 7,352 yuan ($1,020) sparked a trending hashtag and drew audiences curious to see “how bad it could be.”    By Wednesday afternoon, the film had grossed 25.72 million yuan, with the ma jor Chinesefilm data and box-office tracking platform Lighthouse raising its projection to more than 89.34 million yuan.        Created over five years by director Xin Yumeng and her mother Sun Lifang without professional training or outside support, the 86-minute film features crude animation and stiff movements that became its biggest draw. Clips shared online fueled viral exposure, sending Maoyan’s “want to see” count from 300 to 57,000 in a single day.    The title Niu Lai — a pun on “bull market coming” — resonated with investors amid stock market volatility. A scene of a calf tripping and smiling oddly was turned into a meme linked to “semiconductors,” making the character a mascot for traders. Some investors even coordinated seat purchases to spell out the Chinese character for “bull” in cinemas.    The film’s popularity illustrates how audiences are increasingly buying into an online cultural phenomenon rather than simply a movie. Niu Lai is also reportedly preparing for overseas release, with Singapore expected to be its first international market.    (By Gong Weiwei)                        。

Chinese scientists have made new progress in the study of lunar soil samples returned by the Chang'e-6 mission, providing fresh evidence to the striking differences between the moon's near and far sides, which have long puzzled scientists.
Because the moon is tidally locked to Earth, its rotation period matches its orbital period, meaning the same side always faces Earth. The moon's near side features vast dark basaltic plains known as lunar maria, while its far side is dominated by bright highlands with far fewer maria, creating a striking contrast between the two sides. Why does the moon have such "two faces"?
Scientists studying the moon's early formation and evolution have long used the lunar magma ocean model as a basic framework. Under the model, the chemical and isotopic characteristics of different types of lunar magma can be explained by the mixing of different components in varying proportions after the magma ocean cooled, Guangming Daily reported on Saturday. 
However, previous lunar samples were collected only from the moon's near side, while significant differences exist between the near and far sides in their topography, composition and internal structure.
Against this backdrop, the research team from Institute of Geology from Chinese Academy of Geologist Sciences studied feldspathic impact-melt rocks in lunar soil samples returned by the Chang'e-6 mission. Using China's first independently developed ion probe system, researchers conducted a comprehensive analysis to test the lunar magma ocean model and examine how large impacts reshaped reservoirs in the lunar crust and mantle.
Through high-precision analyses, the team identified key clues to the moon's evolutionary history, suggesting that the stark differences between its near and far sides may be linked to the ancient giant impact that formed the South Pole-Aitken Basin.
The study found that the massive impact continued to profoundly reshape the lunar crust and upper mantle after the lunar magma ocean had solidified, fundamentally altering the material composition of parts of the moon's far side.
The findings add to the traditional lunar magma ocean model, suggesting that the formation and preservation of the moon's crustal and mantle reservoirs may have varied significantly from region to region and cannot be fully explained by a single, uniform model of primordial magma-ocean differentiation.
The research provides new scientific evidence for understanding the differences between the moon's near and far sides, while offering fresh insights into the moon's complex evolutionary history, according to Guangming Daily.
