Canadian Comet of Thought Marshall McLuhan (1911-1980) was one of the most original media theorists of the 20th century and is known as the most important thinker of the 20th century. However, McLuhan's work uses a lot of puns and is difficult to understand.

Zhang Xuefeng's sudden death is regrettable and heartbreaking.
Now unknowingly, Zhang Xuefeng has passed away for more than half a month.
In more than half a month, his memorial service has been held, and everyone has to accept the fact that he has really left.
At the same time, everyone is worried about what will happen to his family and company after his death.
Fortunately, both Zhang Xuefeng's family and the person in charge of the company have spoken out, which can reassure netizens.
Let’s first take a look at the situation at Zhang Xuefeng’s family.
Since Zhang Xuefeng's death, his daughter Zhang Weihan has spoken out twice.
One was before a memorial service.
At that time, Zhang Xuefeng's friend Shen Nan sent a video to express condolences. Zhang Weihan appeared in the comment area and left a message: Thank you, uncle, my dad is great. They said that the literary stars in the sky have changed and they have chosen dad," along with a crying emoticon.
Her message was restrained but full of longing.
Everyone left messages to comfort her.
A few days after the memorial service, Zhang Weihan appeared in the comment area of a certain netizen.
She left a message to thank the netizen and expressed that she would collect the photos posted by the netizen.
It turns out that this netizen took a photo of Zhang Weihan eating sushi with his parents in February this year.
For Zhang Weihan, this photo is very precious, it is a reminder of her father.
Seeing Zhang Weihan searching for clues about Zhang Xuefeng on the Internet, many netizens flocked to the comment area of her account and posted photos of Zhang Xuefeng's chance encounters and rarely published photos of Zhang Xuefeng.
Everyone warmed Zhang Weihan in this way.
Her mother, Li Lijing, did not stop Zhang Jinghan from using her mobile phone to surf the Internet during this period.
Fifteen days after Zhang Xuefeng's death, his first wife Li Lijing, who had remained silent, rarely spoke out.
She said that she had not controlled her children's use of mobile phones recently and bluntly said that their children needed to divert their attention. She said that she did not want to forcefully change Zhang Jinhan's emotions and will at this time.
She also rarely talked about Zhang Xuefeng, saying frankly that he is very strong and has endured a lot.
In addition, she also refuted online rumors about remarriage, being in Henan, and having a doctorate degree.
In this statement, Li Lijing emphasized that "for the rest of our lives, my daughter and I just want to live peacefully and well."
It is not difficult to imagine that with her mother by her side, Zhang Weihan will slowly get over the pain and live a good life with her father's hobbies.
While Zhang Xuefeng's family doesn't have to worry too much, everyone is more concerned about the situation of Zhang Xuefeng's company.
As we all know, Zhang Xuefeng’s company is highly bound to his personal IP.
Now that Zhang Xuefeng has passed away, can his company still operate normally? Will it go bankrupt or be merged by other education giants?
Regarding these issues, Wu Liang, general manager of Fengxue Future, issued a long response after the memorial service for Zhang Xuefeng.
He said he would take over the company and that everything was normal and there were no problems.
Regarding the issue of company ownership that netizens are concerned about, Wu Liang also said that he would let Zhang Weihan take over after she reaches adulthood.
As for whether Zhang Weihan is willing to take over or not, it depends on her choice.
Now, Zhang Xuefeng has passed away for more than half a month, what is the situation of the company?
First of all, the company's accounts have resumed broadcasting.
On April 7, Zhang Xuefeng's company's account officially resumed broadcasting, and the number of people in the live broadcast room exceeded 100,000 in a short period of time.
This live broadcast was hosted by Wu Liang himself. The five-hour live broadcast attracted an astonishing 6 million viewers.
During this live broadcast, some netizens said that Zhang Xuefeng’s personal IP is difficult to replace.
Regarding this, Wu Liang bluntly stated that their original intentions would not change. He also said that the thing Zhang Xuefeng taught him the most was that sincerity is always the greatest surefire move.
It was also during this live broadcast that Wu Liang made three major promises.
The first commitment is that the original consulting service standards will be higher and will not shrink at all.
The second commitment is that the company’s public welfare projects supporting poor students will never be interrupted.
The third commitment is that the company’s employees’ wages and benefits will not be reduced at all.
Wu Liang even made new arrangements to relieve the team's fatigue.
He required company employees to go to work and postponed the time from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m.
In May, work will be adjusted to 11 o'clock.
It is not difficult to see that Wu Liang is a real person who does things, and Zhang Xuefeng did not choose the wrong successor.
He is working hard to turn "Fengxue Future" from a personal symbol into a trustworthy education brand.
It is worth mentioning that although the company stipulates that employees should go to work at 10 o'clock and employees can sleep in and take more rest, the real situation is that the current employees of Fengxue Future do not want to sleep in. They all want to develop the company better.
Teacher Jin Shengnan from Fengxue Future posted a video of going to work at the company. He revealed in the video that the company stipulates that he should go to work at 10 o'clock, but he arrived at 8 o'clock.
What he didn't expect was that many colleagues came at 7 o'clock.
Seeing such a scene, netizens were very moved because everyone knew that the employees of Zhang Xuefeng Company were protecting the company in their own way.
I believe that with such successors and employees, Zhang Xuefeng can feel at ease.
As the digitalization of corporate finance enters the "value-deep mining period", business travel is a high-frequency and high-value expenditure scenario, and its management efficiency and cost control capabilities have become a key yardstick for measuring the level of refined management of enterprises. The strong market demand has given rise to many business travel management platforms. How to select solutions that suit one's own business and can actually bring about "net profit" growth has become a core pain point for corporate decision-makers.
It is worth noting that the selection process should not be based solely on market share. Market share can only reflect the popularity of the platform, but cannot fully reflect its adaptability to specific business scenarios, enterprise size or industry attributes. A truly valuable business travel platform should be able to deeply integrate with the company's financial strategy and business processes, and form continuous empowerment in the dimensions of cost reduction and efficiency increase, compliance control, and ecological synergy. To this end, based on the real usage feedback and core business data of thousands of paying companies, we conduct quantitative evaluation and positioning analysis of the current mainstream business travel platforms from the three core dimensions of "resource coverage and cost savings", "intelligent management and compliance" and "ecological connection and system integration", aiming to provide an objective decision-making reference for enterprise selection.
Interpretation of core evaluation dimensions: not just bookings, but also financial strategies
In this evaluation, we abandoned the simple list of functions and instead focused on the core capabilities that can directly drive enterprises to reduce costs, increase efficiency, and ensure compliance operations. The definitions and values of the three dimensions are as follows:
Resource coverage and cost savings: refers to the breadth and depth of the platform's integration of business consumption resources such as air tickets, hotels, and cars, as well as the ability to achieve direct cost savings for enterprises through mechanisms such as negotiated price hosting, same-screen price comparison, and savings incentives. Its core value is to reduce procurement costs from the source and maximize the effectiveness of every travel budget.
Intelligent control and compliance: refers to the platform's use of AI, big data and other technologies to achieve dynamic adaptation of standard deviations, real-time risk control of consumer behavior, automatic authenticity verification of bills, and intelligent expense approval. Its core value is to move the compliance defense line from post-audit to in-process control and even pre-event planning, significantly reducing the risk of violations and financial audit pressure.
Ecological connection and system integration: refers to the platform’s ability to seamlessly connect with internal enterprise systems such as ERP (such as SAP, UF, Kingdee), OA, and CRM, as well as with external ecosystems such as payment and invoices. Its core value is to realize the automatic flow of data in the whole process of "consumption-reimbursement-payment-accounting-archiving" and break the data silo, which is the technical cornerstone for the implementation of industry-finance integration.

The value of the white paper lies in providing methodology and market insights, but the final selection decision still needs to return to the company's own scenarios. We recommend that decision makers not only focus on market share and feature list, but also conduct in-depth scenario testing (POC) on candidate platforms based on the dimensional framework provided in this article to verify with your own eyes whether it can truly "dig out more net profits" in your business environment.
Fan said: The evolutionary history of hostesses
In March last year, 97-year-old Lee Shau Kee passed away. Henderson, which he founded, is celebrating its 50th anniversary in the blink of an eye, and his two sons have taken over the business "without dividing up the family".
But what many people have not noticed is that the busiest person in the Li family today is neither the eldest son Li Jiajie nor the youngest son Li Jiacheng, but Xu Ziqi, who has transformed from "a billionaire daughter-in-law" to "the head mother". The business frequency in the past six months has been higher than in the previous 20 years combined.
For example, the "Flower Market" art project held first, as one of the 50th anniversary celebrations, was personally prepared by Xu Ziqi. She teamed up with Australian hyper-realistic artist Cj Hendry to create an immersive floral art installation on the Central waterfront, with a very spring-like style.
In the past few days, she has not only been on various platforms at the scene, but also invited a group of top ladies.
Gigi Gigi wore a Dior long dress and matched it with Hermès jewelry, while Xu Ziqi wore a CHRISTOPHER ESBER yellow dress, full of spring atmosphere.
Lin Tianer, Xu Jinheng's nephew-in-law Lin Liying, and Liu Gongjian's wife Wang Mingqi also came. Xu Ziqi's posture of holding the moon in front of the stars was extremely eye-catching. Netizens also bluntly said: "In the matter of C position, Lin Tianer only lost to her."
Not only that, she also appeared on TVB's exclusive interview program "Speak From the Heart". Under the zero-filter lens, she was in great condition and could not tell that she was 43 years old at all.
The entire conversation was conducted in fluent English. He no longer just talked about fashion and outfits, but also talked about his charity and artistic undertakings. First of all, he was inspired by his father-in-law Lee Shau Kee, which made people feel that he has grown a lot.
After marrying into a wealthy family for nearly 20 years, in people's eyes, she has always been labeled as the "daughter-in-law with hundreds of millions of dollars". Especially since she disappeared for a time in 2021, the outside world thought that she would be a low-key wealthy lady who lives in seclusion from now on.
Unexpectedly, she has now made a magnificent turn, not only supporting the Li family's appearance, but also completing an all-round "evolution" from the inside out at the age of 43.
Today, the fan will take you to see what qualitative changes have taken place in Xu Ziqi after entering the "post-Lee Shau Kee era"?
01
identity evolution
From "birth KPI" to "the backbone of the Li family"
After marrying into a wealthy family for nearly 20 years, Xu Ziqi's biggest evolution lies in her identity.
When she first married into a wealthy family, she was the daughter-in-law worth hundreds of millions. According to Hong Kong media reports, the couple's wedding of the century cost hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars. The ceremony was held at the Royal Botanic Gardens in Sydney. The dinner was held at the State Theater. They also chartered a plane to pick up and drop off the guests. It was full of grandeur.
Xu Ziqi also worked hard to complete the necessary task of giving birth to a wealthy family. When he first entered the Li family, he said the classic saying, "It takes two years to give birth to two children, and the Li family will flourish!" Moreover, because the first two children were daughters, she was under great mental pressure and searched for secret recipes for having children. Legend has it that she even released 300 gold turtles out of 10,000.
Fortunately, in the end, Xu Ziqi spent 9 years on the journey of having children, with 2 sons and 2 daughters, to complete the biggest task of a wealthy family, and announced her "belly closure" in 2015. However, she was labeled a "fertility machine" by the Hong Kong media.
Xu Ziqi, who has completed the task of giving birth to a child, can be said to have a stable position in the family. Not only is she a well-behaved person, she is especially popular with her father-in-law. When Lee Shau Kee said Xu Ziqi's Chinese was poor, she expressed her intention to learn Chinese with her daughter.
Moreover, Lee Shau Kee and his wife Liu Huijuan had been divorced for nearly 40 years, and his first wife moved away to Canada to settle down and devote herself to Buddhism. And Li Jiajie, the eldest son of Li, is unmarried, and Xu Ziqi is the sole hostess of the family. She is free from the worries of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and the competition of sisters-in-law.
Therefore, Xu Ziqi has also been a "enjoyable rich lady" for a long time. Either go to a celebrity party or travel around the world.
However, for top wealthy families, the daughter-in-law only needs to be "decent", while the "mistress" needs to be "powerful".
Anyone familiar with Henderson knows that the fourth uncle has already arranged the division of labor for his two sons: Li Jiajie is low-key and pragmatic, focusing on the mainland; Li Jiacheng is cheerful and sociable, and is responsible for Hong Kong. After officially retiring in 2019, the two served as co-chairmen at the same time. Hong Kong media called it "division without division."
But "co-governance" solves business matters, and there is another thing that cannot be seen in financial reports, which is social capital. When the fourth uncle was alive, he himself was Henderson's biggest social business card. He and Zheng Yutong had "worked together" for decades, and he was brother-in-law with Li Ka-shing at the poker table. This kind of top-level connections cannot be automatically inherited with the title of CEO.
Li Ka-shing is now in charge of the Hong Kong business, but it is not enough for the real estate tycoon to sign contracts in social situations. He also needs "hostess diplomacy". Someone needs to support the Vogue ceremony, someone needs to organize the charity dinner, and someone needs to maintain the circle of celebrities. Only Xu Ziqi can do these things.
Therefore, Xu Ziqi's "sudden high-frequency business" is essentially Henderson adding soft power to the puzzle in the "post-fourth uncle era". Once you understand this relationship and look at her actions in recent years, you will understand that she is not only "leveraging her career", but also taking over the external appearance of the entire Li family.
For example, The Henderson, an important asset of the Frequent Platform family, is a landmark designed by Zaha Hadid and has an occupancy rate of 90%.
The Vogue x GQ ceremony was held there two days ago. Xu Ziqi appeared as the hostess, wearing a leather suspender skirt which was very cool~
Whether he is giving a speech or sharing the same frame with celebrities, his gestures and gestures all show generosity.
In September last year, Xu Ziqi appeared on the Hong Kong edition of Vogue, a rare double cover. Xu Ziqi may be credited with bringing the Vogue Gala to The Henderson this time.
It is said that there are nearly 10 outfits in the entire blockbuster, all of which are covered by DIOR. They are still the same 2025 autumn and winter season looks, and the fashion resources are also very good.
In addition to fashion, Xu Ziqi is also working hard to develop her identity as a "philanthropist", becoming more and more like the "soul" of the Li family.
I draw storybooks by myself and cooperate with McDonald’s to promote charity.
During the Tokyo Olympics, I took photos with athletes in table tennis and other sports, and posted several posts in support of Paralympic athletes. The whole person is much more pragmatic.
She also hosted a charity dinner as a sponsor of Save the Children Hong Kong, and invited a number of top socialites to attend. They all had a lot of backgrounds, but she firmly held the C position~
Behind the status of Kuotai, Xu Ziqi also has a high degree of education. I returned to my alma mater, University College London, and accepted the honorary academician title from the school together with my husband. We were able to obtain this title by virtue of funding for neuroscience research.
Later, he also appeared at an alumni gathering, wearing a warm gray suit with a T-shirt underneath, chatting in front of everyone, and taking the workplace route.
02
State evolution
Say goodbye to the "gaunt mother feeling" and return to the top
In addition to the change in identity, Xu Ziqi's change in appearance has also triggered heated discussions. Xu Ziqi's early appearance was "walking auspiciousness" stamped by the master, who said that she had "full heaven, round earth pavilion, and profound blessings in her earlobes. She was born with a prosperous husband." Her horoscopes should not be too compatible with the Li family, so she was favored by Lee Shau Kee.
Therefore, Xu Ziqi is often called the "rich face template" by Hong Kong media and is "destined to marry into a wealthy family." She is also often compared with rich ladies such as Guo Jingjing. The two "rich face templates" have even competed at the same venue↓
However, after 9 years and 4 babies, her appearance began to become a bit erratic. With large colored contact lenses and heavy makeup, she became very internet-famous and lost some of her previous grandeur.
In 2021, he entered a low point in his status and completely began a period of recluse. Ins stopped updating and no longer showed up. She once made a low-key appearance and was photographed gaining weight. This caused the outside world to speculate whether she was pregnant with another fifth child, and she was forced to go into business.
When he showed up again after returning in 23 years, his whole person had changed again. Not only has she lost a lot of weight, but her facial contour has also changed a lot, making it almost unrecognizable.
Her soft yellow hair was also questioned as an outdated aesthetic. Hong Kong media revealed that she dyed her outdated yellow hair because she wanted to accommodate her husband, making her look very haggard.
But her recent appearance can be described as "turning back time". The most intuitive change is the collagen on the face. The cheeks become plump again, giving a moisturized "bang bang face".
When the camera takes a picture of my face, there are no obvious fine lines or signs of aging, which gives people the illusion of a 20-year-old who just debuted.
The whole person's mental outlook has also become younger. I was once ridiculed as "tired" and "mom-conscious", but now I have directly transformed back into a girl full of energy, with eyes full of light.
At the Henderson 50th anniversary event two days ago, there was a particularly "alive feeling". Check in happily in front of the dining car like an ordinary girl, holding a drink and drinking it naturally.
When I am with children, I am more like an intimate big sister. I didn’t know she was 43 years old, so I thought she was a college student coming to do volunteer work~
03
Emotional evolution
Clear up the scandal of ten years and become the "Mother of Hundreds of Billions" with peace of mind
The relationship between Xu Ziqi and Li Jiacheng has also experienced a roller coaster-like change. Before marriage, Li Jiacheng had a love affair that was widely reported by Hong Kong media. It is said that Lee Zhao-kei intervened because he valued his family status, and the two eventually broke up.
Not long after, Li Jiacheng disclosed his relationship with Xu Ziqi. Due to the tight timeline, she once suffered from infamy. Later, she responded calmly: "To accept a person, you must accept his past."
After getting married, Xu Ziqi also showed off her love and affection on Instagram, showed off her baby and showed her warmth, focusing on being in love.
When asked about the secret to maintaining a marriage, she also said: "My husband is 12 years older than me. There are many differences, but the basic values and important aspects are the same." She also praised that Li Jiacheng knew more than her and would help her solve many problems so that she didn't have to worry.
But the Hong Kong media obviously had no intention of letting her go, and there were more and more scandals about Li Jiacheng. Not only is there speculation that he was shopping hand in hand with his ex-girlfriend Chen Shuyi Deon, a stewardess.
In 2016, the two celebrated their tenth wedding anniversary. Rumors began to circulate in Hong Kong and on some gossip forums that a certain "married rich second generation with a net worth of hundreds of billions" had a close relationship with the then popular "young model ancestor" Chrissie Chau.
Not only was Li Ka-shing lying on the ground, but there were even rumors that Xu Ziqi had a "big fight" because of this. But in fact, Li Ka-shing and Chrissie Chau have never even been photographed in the same frame.
In the past ten years, the Li family has always chosen to deal with the situation in silence, believing that those who are clean will self-clean. During that period, Xu Ziqi also frequently appeared with her husband in high-profile scenes, trying to break the rumors of marriage. But it was photographed that his face changed drastically and his eyes showed fatigue. It has been frequently rumored that she plans to have five children to consolidate her position.
It wasn't until June 2025 that Chrissie Chau accepted an interview with a YouTube channel while promoting her new movie, and once again discussed the rumors, triggering a new round of discussion.
One is to bring out the scandal ten years ago and stir it up, and the other is to coincide with the death of Lee Shau Kee, which directly lit the fuse.
In February this year, Li Ka-shing officially filed a lawsuit with the Hong Kong High Court against Chrissie Chau, Google LLC and five YouTube channels for defamation and harassment.
Li Jiacheng declared: "I never know Ms. Chrissie Chau, and I have no intention or intention to know her." It is also alleged that Chrissie Chau has directly or indirectly planned, caused or encouraged these false rumors for ten years.
The timing of the prosecution is also delicate: Henderson's 50th anniversary, Lee Shau-kee's death has just passed a year ago, and Xu Ziqi is intensively appearing as a "hostess". Choosing to take action at this juncture is not so much to clarify ten years of old news, but to clear the way for a new chapter in the Li family.
After the incident, although Xu Ziqi did not speak out, the couple got together at the Shanghai Henderson Central Yards event, holding hands and secretly showing affection, which also proved that they have "a harmonious family and a good relationship."
Xu Ziqi wore an Oscar de la Renta dress that day. The green and rose red floral patterns just echoed the same colors as Li Jiacheng's shirt and tie. It was quite thoughtful.
She has regained her vitality, continues to explore her career, and even the emotional obstacles that have troubled her for many years have been completely eliminated.
Hong Kong media once said that she was "destined to be rich and noble", but now it seems that what really turned her from a "daughter-in-law with hundreds of millions" to a "mother-in-law" was not fate but the current situation. A family worth hundreds of billions needed a new face to face the world, and she was just ready.
What do you think of Xu Ziqi’s changes? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area for discussion.
Today is Wu Yue’s birthday. I would like to wish Teacher Wu a happy birthday! Furthermore, how did Teacher Wu achieve such beauty and lightness?
When I saw this set of photos, I was really attracted to it.
She is 53 years old today, but her condition is nothing like it. She exudes a youthful atmosphere. She wears a white short skirt, a pink shirt, and light yellow bottoms. With her long and toned legs and white shoes, she looks so sunny.
Of course, dressing is easy, but what makes people unable to take their eyes away is her state, which is the sense of relaxation that comes from the inside out, and the happiness that comes from the heart.
It is upward vitality, how is it done?
I think it should be purity, persistence and love.
As an actor, Wu Yue has been working hard on the acting road for decades. He has played countless classic roles, whether they are positive and uplifting, or unethical and annoying. He acts like anything and is loved and recognized by the industry and the audience for his strength.
When he is not an actor, Wu Yue keeps a low profile in his life. There are no scandals or hypes. He enjoys quietly at his own pace, hanging out with friends, reading books and watching movies, or traveling to see the world in preparation for his next role.
I like Wu Yue, her enthusiasm for art, her love for life, her persistence in herself, and her clear-headed and self-consistent attitude towards people, things, and everything.
Looking back at Wu Yue's journey, maintaining such a good condition is inseparable from her self-disciplined and minimalist life for many years. Almost all of them are details in life. In fact, we can all do it.
First, stick to a light diet, eat three regular meals, and eat until you are seven-tenths full; second, keep exercising, not dieting, not extreme, take a walk after meals every day, blow the evening breeze of spring, touch the tenderness of spring up close, and you will find that the fatigue of the day has dissipated.
Third, don’t stay up late, go to bed early and get up early, keep enough sleep, and not feel tired during work and life during the day; fourth, the most important point is to have a good attitude, accept all imperfections, and reconcile with yourself;
Fifth, read and write more, and have a poetic and bookish spirit in your belly. Wu Yue’s scholarly quality is inseparable from her persistence and love for reading.
To put it simply, it means taking your life lightly, relaxing your mentality, reducing your desires, not entangled, not internally consumed, and walking at your own pace. Sometimes, it doesn't matter if you go slower, whatever is supposed to come will come.
Finally, my favorite. Let's conclude with what Mr. Lin Qingxuan said. I hope we can all face life with these "four hearts", "see the world with a pure heart, live life with a joyful heart, create feelings with a normal heart, and remove worries with a soft heart." Let's encourage you!
Trump said that he brought peace to the world and asked for the Nobel Peace Prize; he also said that he was on track to complete all military goals, and the current goal is to destroy Iran.
Trump is a performer. In today's all-media era, an actor-president fully performs himself in the media, and at the same time forcefully represents the country of the United States without negotiation, causing the outside world's impression of the current United States to be extremely confusing. It is easy to point out all the mistakes and absurdities in an America that has been so deeply individualized, and to laugh at and criticize it. However, this does not solve the problem.
The United States has been a normal country for most of its 250-year history. 100 years ago, it represented progress and the future; 80 years ago, it represented a new world order; 30 years ago, it represented de facto unipolarity; it has played different positive roles in different historical periods. From the standpoint of all mankind, this basic fact must be acknowledged.
Looking deeper, the biggest problem of the young and energetic United States is that it is not good at introspection and does not understand history. The Chinese say, "Use copper as a mirror to correct your clothes; use ancient times as a mirror to know the ups and downs; use people as a mirror to understand gains and losses." The United States, which has only a quarter of a thousand years of history, and its successive presidents, cannot do it, and they don't understand why they have to do it.
On March 28, local time, "No King" protests broke out in Washington and other places in the United States.
Not good at introspection and ignorant of history, the United States often does not know who it is or what it is doing. For example, in the United States now under Trump's administration, all kinds of nonsense and misbehavior have turned the world upside down, and the United States itself has lost its direction.
The most popular criticism of the United States is that it is driven by hegemonism. Even if it objectively created the "Pan-American Peace", it subjectively intends to pursue unipolar hegemony. No matter what Trump's United States wants to do, in the final analysis, it still pursues some kind of hegemony, so it must oppose it. This kind of criticism is also simplistic and ignores the complexity of world politics.
What is the United States doing today? What is the relationship between Trump’s MAGA movement and the United States in history? Answers need to be sought from a larger historical perspective.
Imperial system and international system
A basic fact of human history is that most civilizations are the history of the rise and fall of empires, rather than the history of the coexistence of nations. Generally speaking, when the empire flourishes, the autonomous regions within the territory will maintain unified order under the central power, and there will be general peace and prosperity; but once the central power weakens, order will be difficult to maintain. Historical laws show that at this time there are usually uprisings or large-scale civil wars in border areas, and the old empire gradually collapses due to internal and external difficulties, poverty and weakness. The next new empire will be reborn in the long-term melee between states.
For ordinary people, no matter how central power is established or how the empire expands, orderly peace and prosperity are always good, and disorderly war and chaos, when the people are in dire straits, are always bad. In Chinese cultural tradition, the former is called the "Peaceful Age", the latter is called the "Troubled Age", and the transitional period from the latter to the former is called the "Peaceful Age". Traditional Chinese people believe that history is nothing more than the repeated reincarnation of these three "eras". The best hope is that the new "peaceful era" will be more lasting, more prosperous, and broader. The recently popular TV series "The Peaceful Years" tells a typical episode of reincarnation that occurred during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period between the two "peaceful ages" of the Tang and Song Dynasties. There are many similar episodes in Chinese history.
But the history of Europe is completely different. Since the fall of the Western Roman Empire in the 5th century AD, the last "peaceful age" in this region has ended. Since then, there have been endless "turbulent times" and occasional "peaceful times", but it has never been able to create a more lasting, more prosperous and broader "peaceful age". It is this special history that finally forced out a new type of order from countless wars in Europe, in which countries that are independent in their own affairs maintain a situation of no war and no peace through the balance of power between them.
Since there is no major war for the time being, this situation is better than the "Troubled Times". Moreover, since it is not unified under the central power, the state of separate countries standing side by side has led to constant conflicts, and there is no prospect of a "peaceful era". In modern terminology, this particular situation is called the "international system," as opposed to the more general "imperial system."
The Treaty of Westphalia in 1648 was the first realization of this "international system" in Europe. After the brutal and bloody "Thirty Years' War", Europe's "Thirty Years' War" came to the brink of mutual destruction, with a quarter of the total population lost. With the "halcyon" out of reach, the "international system" was established as a temporary armistice. Numerous independent political systems have explored a set of international rules to control themselves and mitigate conflicts by signing peace treaties. No one among them is strong enough to defeat all other opponents, thus forming a "balance of power."
In essence, this is not an invention, but a compromise with reality by all parties as a last resort. It is based on a system of independent states that do not interfere in each other's internal affairs and curb their ambitions through a general balance of power. In that world at that time, this "international system" was just a temporary arrangement made internally by European countries that were trapped in the quagmire of "the colonial times" and were unable to extricate themselves. In other parts of the world, the "imperial system" continues to operate on its own track, unaffected at all.
Can the draft resolution on escorting the Strait of Hormuz promoted by Bahrain and other countries be passed by the Security Council? Why is it said that China has informed Bahrain in advance that it will use its "one-vote veto" power? Will France also side with China and Russia at a critical moment?
According to Observer.com's news on April 3, Reuters and the New York Times reported, citing multiple sources, that on April 3, local time, the United Nations Security Council plans to vote on a draft resolution on escorting the Strait of Hormuz, led by Bahrain and supported by Gulf Arab states and the United States. The core is to authorize member states to use "all necessary defense means" to protect merchant ships.
At the same time, the report mentioned that according to information provided by intelligence officials, as the three permanent members of the Security Council, China, Russia and France, clearly oppose any wording authorizing the use of force, and there are also differences among other member states, the prospect of passing the draft is slim.
United Nations Headquarters
Due to the aggressive behavior of the United States and Israel, Iran had to close the Strait of Hormuz in response, which worried the Gulf countries that relied on the strait for oil exports. In addition, Iran's attack on the US military caused collateral damage to some Gulf countries. Therefore, Arab countries hope to open the Strait of Hormuz by force, firstly to facilitate smooth shipping, and secondly to retaliate against Iran.
As the rotating president of the Security Council this month, Bahrain has taken the lead in drafting the draft resolution. On April 2, Bahrain’s Foreign Minister called on the Security Council to show a unified stance in voting on the draft resolution and to decisively respond to Iran’s control of international navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.
Even so, Bahrain called on the Security Council to unify its position, but the possibility of the draft resolution being passed is slim. At least nine Security Council members need to vote in favor during the vote, and no one of the five permanent members will use their veto power. China has already euphemistically expressed its opposition to the adoption of the draft resolution.
security council
On April 2, the Chinese Foreign Minister made it clear during a phone call with the Bahrain Foreign Minister that the actions of the United Nations Security Council should help ease the situation, stop the war and resume talks, but should not endorse illegal war actions, let alone add fuel to the fire.
In a phone call with the Saudi Foreign Minister on the same day, the Chinese Foreign Minister once again emphasized that "if the war continues, the Straits will be unsafe. The top priority is to focus on a ceasefire and an end to the war as soon as possible. The actions of the United Nations Security Council must avoid escalation of confrontation and cannot legitimize unauthorized military operations. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles, and small and medium-sized countries will bear the brunt, especially."
In fact, China has clearly informed Bahrain and Saudi Arabia that it will express its opposition to the relevant draft resolutions and will use its "one-vote veto" power when necessary. China believes that the Security Council should play a role in promoting a ceasefire and an end to the war, rather than adding fuel to the fire and exacerbating the situation, let alone legitimizing the illegal aggression of the United States and Israel. This opening will have a negative impact.

Strictly speaking, China's statement is very realistic. The Gulf countries are aiding the evil and supporting the US and Israel's armed invasion of Iran. They are not contributing to peace. On the contrary, they are destroying the foundation of peace in the Middle East and betraying the foundation of their own future peace.
The reason is very simple. If Iran completely collapses, the Middle East will lose a force that can check the United States and Israel, and the security of the Gulf countries will face greater threats. The greed of the United States and Israel's brutality are obvious to the world. Only by promoting unity through dialogue with Iran can the Gulf countries resolve the crisis and achieve long-term peace in the Middle East.
In addition, Russia does not want the war in the Middle East to expand or spill over. It is basically certain that it will vote against the draft resolution led by Bahrain. Otherwise, if the conflict continues, Russia will not be able to bear the global inflation.

As for France, on the one hand, it is of course to demonstrate its different attitude from the United States and to show that Europe has an independent stance. On the other hand, Iran has demonstrated a 4,000-kilometer strike capability. If Europe provokes Iran, it may cause unnecessary trouble. For practical considerations, France will undoubtedly side with China and Russia.
