Vulnerability of Cyber Security Is an Unexpected Threat to Global Internet System

2025-10-30T06:36:29+00:00

At present the world is becoming highly interconnected, and cyber security is essential for the sustainability and development of the global networking. Cyber security is the practice of protecting digital devices, networks, and sensitive data from cyber threats, such as hacking, malware, and phishing attacks that are committed over the internet by technically skilled criminals, who have a wide range of strategies, technologies, and best practices. It is an urgent national and global problem. At present it becomes an incredibly complex and changing policy and important issue in the infrastructure of every company and organization. Data in computer can be lost or destroyed through physical and natural disasters, such as floods, fires, and unexpected catastrophes done by the cyber criminals. The purpose of this study is to discuss the aspects of cyber security for the improvement of the safety and security of cyber space.

Research on the Market Adaptability of Rongchang Summer Cloth Product Innovation Under the Intervention of Modern Design Language

2025-10-30T06:42:22+00:00

This paper takes Rongchang Summer Cloth as the research object, focusing on the market adaptability of its product innovation under the intervention of modern design language. Based on cultural consumption theory and design value theory, it constructs an analytical framework of “design innovation–market segmentation–value adaptation”. Through case analysis and theoretical deduction, it proposes four core market segments for Rongchang Summer Cloth: cultural elites and collectors, new middle-class and lifestyle consumers, designers and creative classes, and Generation Z and national trend enthusiasts. On this basis, it elaborates on five core design innovation methods–symbol translation, material reengineering, structural innovation, functional crossover, and narrative empowerment–and their dynamic adaptation paths with each market segment in terms of value demands, functional needs, and price perception. It proposes that market adaptation is a precise value co-creation behavior, whose essence lies in transforming the cultural and aesthetic value created by design innovation into a value that can be perceived, recognized, and paid for by specific target consumers through appropriate channels and narratives. This paper aims to provide theoretical support and practical references for the coordinated development of cultural inheritance and commercial value of Rongchang Summer Cloth in the context of cultural confidence and consumption upgrade.

The Production of Beauty and Nostalgia: The Image-Space and Discursive Construction of Chinese Rural Documentaries in the New Era

2025-10-31T09:38:45+00:00

This study examines Chinese rural documentaries from the New Era. It uses Henri Lefebvre’s theory of the production of space. It also employs Michel Foucault’s discourse theory. These theories serve as the core analytical framework. The research explores how these documentaries use cinematic narrative techniques. Their goal is to construct the countryside as a meaningful space. This space is filled with ideas of “beauty” and “nostalgia.” Finally, the study critically analyzes the discursive practices and ideological effects of this construction process. This study argues that the rural space depicted in Chinese rural documentaries is not a straightforward reflection of reality but an actively selective discursive “production”. Based on Lefebvre’s “spatial triad”, the study firstly dissects how the physical space of rural areas is depicted as a landscape and as “picturesque”, how the social space of rural areas is shaped by the subjectivity of “new rural residents” and communal relationships and how the cultural space of rural areas is emotionally anchored by conceptions of “home”, “memory” and “history”. Subsequently, the study analyzes the micro-strategy of narrative technique in detail and explores how the cooperation between visual rhetorics of shot scale (long shot/close-up), lighting and camera movement and auditory landscapes of voiceover narration and soundscapes collectively create an emotionally resonant and realistic rural imagery. Furthermore, the study discusses the macro-strategies of spatial juxtaposition and integration and analyzes how these strategies facilitate the incorporation of different kinds of rural spaces into a macro-narrative space concerning “Beautiful China” initiative and an “urban-rural community”. In conclusion, through subtle spatial storytelling, Chinese rural documentaries in New Era successfully produce “beauty” and “nostalgia” as a dominant cultural discourse. This cultural discourse evokes the audience’s emotional resonance, strengthens cultural identity and displays the achievements of rural revitalization. In essence, it is a cinematic practice that participates in the construction of national identity in New Era. This research not only offers a critical spatial and discursive analytical approach for the study of rural documentaries but also provides a representative case study for the analysis of representational mechanisms and ideological effects in contemporary Chinese mainstream culture.
