An eternal myth of equipment: can badminton rackets improve a person’s level? In a specific era, this proposition is undoubtedly affirmative. When you switch from wooden racket to alloy racket, and from alloy racket to carbon fiber racket, there is no doubt that an equipment upgrade in a short time will greatly enhance your personal strength. However, it seems that such an obvious promotion pace has gradually slowed down in the carbon fiber era. From a long-term perspective, the replacement of equipment is indeed constantly improving the personal level, so as to affect the technical and tactical pattern of professional badminton. However, over the years, the promotion brought by each equipment upgrade is really not so easy for amateurs to feel. Limited funds have split the amateur players into two factions: the technical party and the equipment party. Should I invest my little money in a coach or a racket to really make me feel strong?

For me, how to spend my money is my own business, and there is no need to argue about it. But this time may be an exception. YONEX’s new AX88, if you are still hesitating, go ahead and buy it.

As the preface says, the biggest motivation for buying a racket is probably that it can make me stronger. In the past, all kinds of rackets can only be started from the suitability of the ball style. The performance of high-end racquets is gradually converging, and the positioning is overlapping. Even the low-end racquets are almost as high-end because of the popularization of production technology. With such a dazzling array of things, you will get sick in an instant when you choose difficulties. You only hate that the balance of Alipay in your mobile phone does not have 8 zeros. Amateurs really don’t have a particularly fixed style. Today, they are in a good state and want to kill the ball. Tomorrow, they just want to stand and roll. Even if a racket has all kinds of martial arts, it is difficult to satisfy the ever-changing nature of DIVA.

Fortunately, AX88 accelerates in a straight line, giving you a way to become stronger: improving efficiency. No matter what style you are, whether you are weak or strong today, it can perform better than your other beats: it directly makes your power more effective, just like adding a continuous buff.

As this is a late review, you should know what technology AX88 has. Its principle is very simple. Imagine yourself as a rocket. Your fuel utilization rate is too low, and it is hard to push 10 tons. One day, you got a catalyst named AX88, which suddenly increased your fuel utilization rate by 20%, and 10 tons was no longer afraid. This is how AX88 makes you stronger. You can only hit the ball so hard, but the speed and depth of the ball have changed.

This point should be attributed to the new material NAMD and the brand-new whole-beat weight distribution system. I felt it in AX77, but AX88 took this feature to a new height. It’s said that a 10-point racket is a 7-point shot. Maybe you don’t need to know about other technologies of AX88. Just look for it.

On this basis, AX88 derived two models: AX88D and AX88S, D for Dominate, S for Skill. Look at the full name, but the type is clear. 88D must be born for attack, and 88S is "it’s time to show real technology".

In appearance, the style of AX77 has been continued, but the color scheme has been changed to red and green this time. The frame is still an oval box/broken wind frame that YONEX knows well. It is unpretentious and obviously takes the connotation route. In addition to the difference in swing weight, the only difference between the two is probably the different bending point and length of the racket in the propaganda (with different advantages in different paths). AX88S is a relatively rare racket with a length of 670mm, and its short body and short grip are very suitable for the quick hand-to-hand combat in the middle and frontcourt of doubles. The AX88D is a conventional 675mm extension, and the extra 10mm makes your swing torque bigger, which is naturally suitable for a strong swing attack. Of course, it’s probably not easy to mix the two racquets. For you who are a master, the difference of 5mm hitting point, amplified by strength, is likely to be the improvement of the error rate. It doesn’t matter if the level is average. Anyway, there are many mistakes …

The difference of bending point is not as obvious as the difference of swing weight in normal times. The 85-swing weight of AX88S belongs to a fairly standard doubles racket setting. It is better to pursue accuracy and speed than power. Therefore, it is a racket that is more suitable for middle-distance rbis and close hand-to-hand combat. The feeling of hitting the ball is not as tough as expected, and it is about the same as that of AX77. For friends who like hard steel on the front, its feel may not be Jason Wu enough, but the ball is really fast and sharp, just like a M416 with a silencer. Its power is not diminished, that is, you don’t have to press the gun so hard, and some people feel it is not exciting enough.

AX88D has a slightly higher swing weight, so it doesn’t make much difference for people with good strength to swing and fight in the frontcourt of doubles like 88S. However, when it comes to killing the ball, the difference of bending points begins to be reflected. It is normal for 88D with higher swing to kill the ball better than 88S, but the feel is really different: 88D has a second bending hitting feel, and the downward pressure is purer and more carefree, and the power seems to be used to accelerate the ball. The 88S will feel that the racket face is very stable, the feel is clear, the ball is sharp, and the strength seems to be used in the angle. For amateurs, it is a good choice to use the characteristics of the racket itself to strengthen the specific hitting feeling.

The high efficiency of AX88 is quite obvious in hitting the ball, and it is obviously much easier to pull up the long ball. In the single-shot all-out attack, high-level players are already very strong because of their own strength, and AX88 is subject to marginal effect, so the feeling of improving the power of single-shot is not significant, but in the multi-shot attack, high efficiency means saving effort. The later, the more dominant the physical strength of AX88 is, and the clearer the situation is. In the passive ball, AX88 is not better than other high-end shots in the fast block with short reaction time/short shooting opportunity, but it is quite excellent in the type of swinging vigorously to save the ball after running passively, especially for amateurs with insufficient strength, it can better exert your strength and increase the depth of the passive ball.

Generally speaking, for amateurs, AX88 has an outstanding hitting feel: slightly hard, without annoying vibration, but the ball is as strong as an ultra-hard shot, and at the same time, it can greatly improve your hitting efficiency, thus improving your physical fitness, not to mention its controllability. Its offensive power is among the best in YY’s other high-end shots. For amateur golfers, the 4U AX88 is not difficult to drive (88D may be a little bit difficult). Improving the success rate of passive ball saving is equivalent to reducing the possibility of losing points actively, and can also improve their strength performance. After all, for amateurs, the error rate and physical fitness are the two biggest hurdles. A racket can make it easier for you to cross the hurdle. Why not?

Of course, due to the unique characteristics of NAMD (so-called "soft-hard combination"), AX series can’t provide the extreme feel that some people love, such as hard and painful, and soft. AX77 and AX88 cover a wide range of playing styles, but the hitting feel is similar: they are not hard and elastic, just like QQ candy that is slightly frozen. Some people like it, while others are too sticky. If you are such a person, YONEX has many other options. If you just want to play well, you can try AX.

　　Beijing, August 17 (Reporter Song Yusheng) The case of famous writer Jin Yong v. Jiangnan, the author of "Fan Works" and "Teenagers Here", was publicly pronounced in the Tianhe District People’s Court of Guangzhou on the 16th. This dispute, known as "the first case of a fan’s work in the mainland", was judged by the first instance that Jiangnan and other three defendants constituted unfair competition, and Jin Yong was awarded 1.88 million yuan.

　　"Fanwork" refers to a re-created work by using elements such as characters, story lines or background settings in original cartoons, animations, novels and film and television works. In recent years, there are many such works on the Internet. Does this case indicate that all the works of the same person involve similar problems?

　　In fact, as early as 2016, the dispute between Jin Yong and Jiangnan entered the public eye. At that time, Jin Yong filed a complaint with the Tianhe District People’s Court in Guangzhou, suing Jiangnan and Beijing United Publishing Co., Ltd., Beijing Jingdian Bowei Culture Media Co., Ltd. and Guangzhou Book Center Co., Ltd. for infringement.

　　Jiangnan is located in Beijing, and the Guangzhou court does not have his address, which leads to Jiangnan not receiving the relevant documents, being publicized by the court and being hanged on the Internet by netizens.

　　In April, 2017, the case was officially opened. The core focus of the court debate between the two sides was whether the names, relationships, personality characteristics and storylines of the characters such as Ling Huchong, Guo Jing and Huang Rong in "Teenagers Here" belonged to the ideological category, or were they original expressions, and whether they were protected by China copyright law.

　　Jin Yongfang believes that the above-mentioned original martial arts characters have formed a distinctive and classic image in public consciousness in the spread of decades, with strong recognition. Without permission, "The Boys Here" uses a lot of these original elements to attract readers, seek competitive advantages and make profits, which infringes on Jin Yong’s copyright and constitutes unfair competition.

　　On the other hand, Jiangnan believes that there is a fundamental difference between Boys Here and Jin Yong’s works. The original expressive parts of Jin Yong’s works are not used in the works, and no changes are involved in Jin Yong’s works themselves.

　　After the judgment of the first instance, the Tianhe District People’s Court published the comparison between Jin Yong’s and Jiangnan’s works on its WeChat WeChat official account.

　　The reporter noticed that the names of the characters in "The Boys Here" are the same as a large number of characters in Jin Yong’s works. Among them, 27 are the same as The Legend of the Condor Heroes, including Guo Jing, Yang Kang, Huang Rong, Ouyang Ke, Ouyang Feng and Huang Yaoshi. There are 13 in total that are the same as Jin Yong’s the legendary swordsman, including Ling Huchong, Lin Pingzhi, Duhu seeking defeat, Dong Fangbubai, etc. There are 18 in total, including Wang Yuyan, Duan Yu, Qiao Feng, Duan Zhu and Duan Zi. There are seven similar works to Jin Yong’s The Condor Heroes, including Guo Jing, Huang Rong, Little Dragon Girl, Yin Zhiping and Lu Wushuang.

　　The court held that "Teenagers here" was not based on Jin Yong’s works in terms of character relationship, personality characteristics and story plot, but wrote a brand-new story beginning, development, climax and ending around the characters in different times and spatial backgrounds, creating campus youth literature works different from the plaintiff’s works, which would not lead readers to have the same or similar appreciation experience. On the whole, it is not enough to constitute infringement, so it is judged that Jiangnan enjoys complete copyright.

　　At the same time, the court held that although the names of characters, relationships between characters and other elements in Jin Yong’s works do not constitute original expressions and cannot be protected as objects of copyright, it does not mean that others can use the above elements freely, freely and indefinitely. Jiangnan’s move to borrow a name is indeed suspected of profiting from the situation, which constitutes unfair competition to a certain extent.

　　In addition, the court also pointed out that "The Boys Here" and Jin Yong’s works are the same or similar in terms of characters’ names and relationships, but they belong to martial arts novels and campus youth novels in literary works, and their readers are different, and there is still room for coexistence. If Jiangnan is republished after obtaining Jin Yong’s understanding and permission, it will better meet the diverse needs of readers and be conducive to cultural prosperity.

　　Writer Jiangnan also issued a statement on the same day, saying that it is good news that there is no copyright infringement, and "unfair competition" is a resounding alarm. The statement also said that it is not a happy thing to go to court with an author whom you respect, but "it should be robbed because of its name."

　　As of press time, Jin Yong did not respond to this matter.

　　The reporter also interviewed a third-party lawyer. Chen Ruojian, the managing partner of Duan Heduan Law Firm, said that the determination of unfair competition has little to do with whether it is profitable or not. Generally, it depends on whether the commercial interests of others are damaged.

　　"In this case, Mr. Jin Yong’s works are also recognized as well-known works, which are actually commercial novels. If you borrow the elements of well-known commodities for commercial activities, it should constitute unfair competition. " Chen Ruojian said.

　　Then, do "fan works" recreated with the names of characters in well-known works constitute copyright infringement or unfair competition?

　　Chen Ruojian thinks this needs specific analysis. "It depends on the specific plot of the work here, and whether it will cause misunderstanding among readers."

　　Lawyer Chai Zheng said that from the perspective of intellectual property protection and encouraging innovation, works with their own complete intellectual property rights are definitely better than "famous brands". "If you must learn from, quote, or pay tribute to the author, you should at least get the author’s consent."

　　At the same time, Chai Zheng pointed out that everyone can’t think that as long as the work is not profitable, it will not involve infringement.

　　Recently, some netizens posted on social platforms that a group of people in Donggang, Shanwei Lake, Guangdong Province "released" mineral water into the sea, and more than 60 boxes of mineral water were wasted. The live video shows that a group of people are carrying blue boxes to the seaside, and neatly placed mineral water bottles can be seen in the boxes. According to the video publisher, two buses arrived at 3 pm on September 10th, and the buses were full of people.

　　According to media reports, on September 11th, the staff of the Marine Comprehensive Law Enforcement Brigade in Lufeng City, Guangdong Province told the reporter that if the situation is true, it is indeed a waste of water resources, and the law enforcement team who is in charge of the beach will be arranged to verify the situation on the spot. Shanwei Municipal Bureau of Religious Affairs introduced that Lufeng City had been followed up after the bureau discovered the incident.

　　On the morning of September 12, the staff of Lufeng Water Affairs Bureau told the Red Star journalist that it was not allowed to dump mineral water into the harbor, which not only wasted money but also wasted water resources. At present, the Water Affairs Bureau is not clear about the reasons for dumping. Lufeng Marine Comprehensive Law Enforcement Brigade also told reporters that this is the first time that residents have found the phenomenon of dumping water into the harbor. Generally, the coastal areas of the port are mainly supervised by towns and villages. At present, the town government has also made investigation results. For details, please consult the local government.

　　Subsequently, the Red Star journalist learned from the Hudong Town Government that after verification by the staff, it was learned that the local Mid-Autumn Festival in Hudong had the custom of releasing people, which was for future generations to pay homage to their loved ones who died at sea. According to the above-mentioned staff, it is not mineral water that is poured into the sea, but tap water filled into mineral water bottles. After pouring, the water bottles have been recycled, and there is no pollution of seawater. Hudong Town is close to the fishing area and makes a living from the sea. After changing the customs this year, it was replaced by tap water. Because this is a way for local residents to pay homage to their ancestors, the government has not interfered too much, neither supporting nor opposing it. According to local residents, the whole lunar July in Chaoshan area is a day to worship the gods. Previously, some fish and turtles were released, and I have never heard of releasing mineral water.

　　"Releasing" mineral water is not a case. In July this year, many people poured a large number of newly opened bottled water into the reservoir next to the reservoir in Laoshan Mountain, Qingdao, Shandong Province. The time lasted from 10 am to 12 noon, when they quickly boarded the hot search. Verified by Qingdao Water Management Bureau, the reason for dumping mineral water was "blessing", and the reservoir supervisor promptly dissuaded it after discovering it. The staff of Qingdao Water Affairs Bureau said, "This kind of behavior is a waste of water. We appeal to citizens who have such plans to donate mineral water to social welfare organizations, which is more meaningful."
