He bluntly said that branding is a very hard job, which requires long-term persistence and a lot of money. Hisense firmly believes in the power of brands, that brands are the future of enterprises, and that there is no internationalization of Hisense without the internationalization of brands. "Especially when most China enterprises take advantage of the dividends from entering the market and borrow ships to go out to sea through OEM to make quick money, Hisense voluntarily gave up OEM and chose the most difficult shipbuilding to go out to sea, that is, resolutely went to the high end and invested a lot of money, people and resources in brand building, especially in corporate marketing."

Dutch International Bank said that Britain's GDP fell again in October, although this may exaggerate the degree of recent economic slowdown. According to the bank's forecast of Britain's annual GDP in 2025, the British economy will surpass most western European countries next year. This may tell more about the economic health of other parts of continental Europe, but it also reflects the impact of the recent fiscal stimulus measures in Britain to a great extent. Compared with the budget of the last Conservative government, public expenditure has increased by about 60 billion pounds, accounting for more than 2% of GDP. Most of the increased expenditure will flow to government departments in the form of daily funds, and most of it will eventually appear in the form of wages. Therefore, the transmission of finance to broader economic growth may be quite high.
