September 12, 2024
LONDON, Sept 12, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Transport for Wales (TfW) has selected Hitachi to help digitally transform publictransport within Wales, making it easier for customers to plan, book and pay for different modes of travel.Highlights:Five-year partnership to digitallyconnect public transport journeysacross Wales through a single app.Applying knowledge and experiencefrom Japan’s rail network, Hitachi will create multimodal booking system includes all public transport, bikes, e- scooters and demand-based solutions.Partnership exemplifies how HitachiRail is driving the mobility transition, making sustainable, low carbon travel easier to choose, plan and pay for.Over the next five years, Hitachi will deliver a multimodal digital booking system that will include all modes of publictransport and be available to customers through a simple, user friendly app.Rail, local bus, fflecsi and TrawsCymru services will all be available to plan and book through the one digital back-office solution from Hitachi, as well as a host of other micromobility (bikes, e-scooters) and demand-based mobilitysolutions already being used in Wales.Hitachi is leveraging its digital expertise from its involvement in ticketing on the Japanese rail network and various initiatives in Italy to develop a bespoke Mobility as a Service (MaaS) product for Wales. With over 50 million multimodal ticketing transactions taking place every day using Hitachi Rail ticketing technology, the global provider of rail solutions will use its experience of digitally connecting millions of journeys daily to deliver a unique partnership with TfW.Marie Daly, Chief Customer and Culture Officer at TfW said:"At TfW we're always looking to improve the customer experience and in doing this we want to attract more people to our public transport network."This exciting and ambitious project will deliver a digital solution that will help our customers plan point to point journeys using different modes of public transport. It's all part of our longer-term plans and aspirations to provide ourcustomers with one network, one timetable and one ticket."We look forward to working with Hitachi and bringing this global expertise to public transport in Wales."MaaS solutions typically focus on urban areas; however, this partnership is pioneering because it will cover the entiretyof Wales, including rural areas that are often overlooked for digital innovation. Equally, MaaS will make greener, lowcarbon travel easier to choose, plan and pay for. This will help accelerate green transformation within cities and the Welsh countryside.Hitachi’s extensive expertise in digital systems integration was a key factor in being chosen as TfW’s MaaS technology partner. Equally, Hitachi can call upon the Hitachi group’s digital expertise in AI and its Microsoft Azure frameworkagreement to ensure the system is always at the forefront of innovation, making it easy to integrate more modes of transport, expand coverage and meet growing demand.Justin Southcombe, Commercial Director at Hitachi Rail said:“This strategic partnership with TfW will benefit from the breadth of mobility, digital and behavioural science expertise that exists in the Hitachi Group.“Hitachi can combine the latest in cutting-edge digital technology, with deep knowledge of managing some of the world’s most popular transport systems, to better connect journeys. “By making public transport more accessible and user-friendly, Hitachi can help increase sustainable travel in Wales.”This MaaS project is an example of how Hitachi Rail is driving the mobility transition by digitally connecting modes of transport, making it easier for passengers to plan and choose public transport. Enhancing connectivity encouragesmodal shift to public transport to deliver sustainable travel and reduce transport emissions.Meanwhile, Hitachi is using its existing collaboration with Goldsmith University to incorporate new research and development around behavioural science, so that humans’ motivations in their travel decisions are built into the design. This ability to draw on R&D and digital expertise of different group businesses demonstrates how Hitachi can be a strategic partner to deliver digital and mobility solutions.On 31 May 2024, Hitachi Rail completed the acquisition of Thales’ Ground Transportation Systems business (GTS),expanding the business’s footprint to 24,000 colleagues across 51 countries. The acquisition has enabled Hitachi Rail to expand its product and technology portfolio, including enhancing its expertise in delivering smart mobility solutions.

NEC Publishes ESG Initiatives Supporting Sustainable Growth of Companies and Society in “ESG Databook 2024”

September 12, 2024
TOKYO, Sept 12, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - NEC Corporation (NEC; TSE: 6701) has published the ESG Databook 2024, a report on its ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) initiatives from April 2023 onwards.NEC ESG Databook 2024URL: www.nec.com/en/global/sustainability/report/index.html As outlined in its Mid-term Management Plan 2025 (*), NEC aims to create social and environmental value through its business, with a focus on growth areas, and as part of its financial strategy, is strengthening its non-financial foundations to support the sustainable growth of the company and society.The main initiatives outlined in the ESG Databook 2024 are as follows:1. Utilization of Sustainability Information Disclosure StandardsThe ESG Databook 2024 was composed with reference to the four components of the ISSB and SSBJ drafts of Sustainability Information Disclosure Standards: "Governance," "Strategy," "Risk Management (including NEC’s unique opportunity creation)," and "Indicators and Goals." In addition to examining the gap between disclosure standards and actual initiatives, the Databook will also be used as a tool for dialogue with investors and research institutions that utilize it.2. Initiatives to reduce capital costs by promoting businesses that contribute to carbon neutrality and by addressing environmental risksIn response to the growing interest in decarbonization among customers and society, NEC is introducing a variety of environmental solutions, including its Sustainability Transformation (SX) consulting services, which support the formulation of strategies and roadmaps toward carbon neutrality and nature positivity. Specifically, in response to the intensification of natural disasters caused by climate change, the Japan Consortium for Adaptation Finance was established with Mitsui Sumitomo Insurance Company, Limited in order to expand the market for "Adaptation Finance," which promotes the procurement of funds by visualizing the effects of adaptation measures using digital technologies. In addition, to ensure a stable supply of food, NEC is expanding sales of AI-based agricultural support solutions through strategic partnerships that act as a new pillar for growth business.Meanwhile, for the third consecutive year, NEC has issued sustainability-linked bonds with KPIs based on the strength of its environmental initiatives, including its selection as a CDP "A-List (Climate Change)" company for five consecutive years, in an effort to reduce its capital costs. Furthermore, in July 2023, NEC became the first company from Japan’s IT industry to issue a TNFD report, disclosing its natural capital initiatives to stakeholders, and in June 2024, published a second edition.3. Strengthening security for NEC and society, and strengthening the acquisition and development of human resourcesAs NEC is engaged in businesses that have a high level of public importance, it has positioned cybersecurity and information security as a form of materiality. NEC is promoting measures in accordance with the Cybersecurity Management Guidelines Ver. 3.0 of Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the NIST Cybersecurity Framework Ver. 2.0 of the U.S.-based National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and discloses its initiatives in the "NEC Information Security Report." In fiscal 2023, NEC was awarded the highest rating of "Two Stars" by the Japan Federation of Information Technology Associations (JFIA) as a company with particularly excellent security measures and as a model to emulate.NEC Information Security Report 2024 (published in September 2024)URL: www.nec.com/en/global/sustainability/security/index.html Additionally, as part of NEC’s human resource management, the company is also strengthening the acquisition and development of security and digital transformation (DX) personnel who can meet the expectations and deserve the trust of customers.4. Strengthening Corporate GovernanceIn June 2023, NEC transitioned from a company with a board of corporate auditors to a company with a nominating committee, etc. By clearly separating supervision and execution, NEC has strengthened the supervisory function of the board of directors, while at the same time accelerating decision-making and business execution by delegating significant authority to executive officers.5. Continued inclusion in major ESG indicesAs a result of these efforts, NEC continues to be included in major ESG indices, such as the Dow Jones Sustainability Indices Asia Pacific Index, the FTSE4Good Index Series, and the MSCI ESG Leaders Indexes, which is one of the financial strategy targets of the Mid-term Management Plan 2025.Guided by the NEC Way, NEC aims to create the social values of safety, security, fairness and efficiency and to promote a more sustainable world where everyone has the chance to reach their full potential. Moreover, NEC contributes to all 17 SDGs by actively engaging with various stakeholders and leveraging the power of ICT to address social challenges.(*) Mid-term Management Plan 2025: www.nec.com/en/global/ir/library/plan2025.html About NEC CorporationNEC Corporation has established itself as a leader in the integration of IT and network technologies while promoting the brand statement of “Orchestrating a brighter world.” NEC enables businesses and communities to adapt to rapid changes taking place in both society and the market as it provides for the social values of safety, security, fairness and efficiency to promote a more sustainable world where everyone has the chance to reach their full potential.

如何提升卡玛拉·哈里斯的经济论点 Latest News

如何提升卡玛拉·哈里斯的经济论点

September 12, 2024
(SeaPRwire) - 卡玛拉·哈里斯和蒂姆·沃尔兹的竞选团队应该花点时间庆祝，但也不应该沉浸在胜利的喜悦中太久。未来的采访、即将到来的竞选集会和可能进行的第二次辩论将要求她继续完善自己的政策平台，并为自己的记录辩护。唐纳德·特朗普和他的支持者并非完全错误地认为，在辩论中，哈里斯在一些薄弱环节上并没有受到足够的压力。这些弱点与人们对未实现资本收益征税的担忧有关；对杂货价格哄抬的指责，而利润率仅为 1.5%；可能导致通货膨胀的 25000 美元的首次购房补贴；以及不受欢迎、效果不佳的当前反垄断政策。 哈里斯应该继续强化她对拜登-哈里斯政府经济和移民表现的辩护。利用她坚实的记录对特朗普和他在继续散播的谎言发起攻击，以下是哈里斯如何将这两个问题转化为优势。 经济 虽然哈里斯可以在宣传自己的“机会经济”议程时声称自己比特朗普更有优势，而特朗普的政策提议则要少得多，但副总统似乎回避了主持人大卫·缪尔的提问：“你认为美国人比四年前过得更好吗？” 哈里斯应该给出的答案应该是响亮的“是的！美国人比四年前过得更好”。她可以将这一回应与对美国人民关于通货膨胀的简单、事实性的解释结合起来。正如经济学家埃德·雅德尼今天早上在 CNBC 上所说：“通货膨胀数据正在朝着正确的方向下降，经济比人们预期的更有韧性。调查数据比实际数据更负面，GDP 增长率为 2.5%，而不是实际数据。初次失业率非常低。零售额和个人收入将出现意外的上涨。只有在生产率表现良好的情况下，实际工资才能上涨。” 这也紧随上个月创下历史新高。 在新冠疫情之后，拜登-哈里斯政府领导了经济复兴，这使得 GDP 增长率比特朗普时期高出近一个百分点。如果你控制 2020 年新冠疫情的影响，只考虑每届政府任期的前三年，这对搭档的经济表现仍然优于特朗普政府的经济表现。 在拜登-哈里斯政府的领导下，就业增长也加速，增加了 1580 万个工作岗位，而特朗普则损失了 270 万个工作岗位。即使是针对新冠疫情，拜登-哈里斯政府的就业增长也超过了前总统，增加了 300 万个工作岗位，包括比前总统多 50%。持续的低失业率反映了这一成功。 在拜登-哈里斯政府的领导下，联邦预算赤字减少了三分之一以上，而特朗普政府的赤字则有所增加，并且减缓了公共债务总额的增长速度。同样，在考虑新冠疫情的影响后，这一趋势依然存在。 尽管财政状况严峻，拜登-哈里斯政府还是通过国会推动了历史性的立法，在基础设施、清洁能源、医疗保健、教育、制造业、研究和开发以及网络安全和创新方面投资了 1.1 万亿美元以上。特朗普承诺通过一项重大的基础设施计划，但最终没有兑现。同样，在特朗普总统任期内，美国贸易赤字也升至 20 年来的最高水平，尽管他采取了关税措施来降低贸易赤字。 哈里斯还错过了反驳特朗普关于通货膨胀的攻击的机会。拜登-哈里斯政府将通货膨胀率降低到接近美联储的长期目标 2%，从数十年的高点下降。工资增长已经得到纠正，现在超过了通货膨胀率，自 2020 年 2 月以来，实际收入稳步增长。几乎所有商品的价格都大幅下降，新冠疫情后供应链瓶颈已经清除。 由于拜登-哈里斯政府领导下的美国创下了石油产量新高，成为世界上最大的石油生产国，油价已经大幅下降，回到了 20 年来的平均水平，即每桶 65 美元，尽管中东和欧洲存在冲突，但汽油零售价格也下降了。目前的政府每天的产量为 1340 万桶，比特朗普政府的峰值产量（约 1200 万桶）高出 100 万桶，比俄罗斯或沙特阿拉伯等第二大石油生产国高出 30%。能源繁荣也延伸到天然气和可再生能源的生产，这些生产也创下了历史新高。联邦土地上石油和天然气生产增加 50%，为经济带来了额外的助力。 移民 哈里斯在今年春天巧妙地驳斥了特朗普对拟议中的两党边境法案的否决，但没有对自己的边境管理提供任何真正的辩护，这给特朗普留下了攻击的机会。特朗普声称，在他任期内边境是最安全的，并建议哈里斯退出辩论，发布一项行政命令来阻止移民涌入。 哈里斯应该抓住这个机会。拜登-哈里斯政府确实采取了措施来加强边境安全，此前特朗普否决了两党法案，在随后的几个月里，边境遭遇的数量与特朗普政府时期相当。此外，哈里斯本可以指出，与总统相比，在总统任期内，边境遭遇平均每年高出 80,000 人。 大多数美国人并不认同特朗普关于移民的极端意识形态。许多商界领袖和经济学家认识到，移民的经济和社会效益远远超过了任何所带来的成本，并没有“毒害我们国家的血液”，正如特朗普喜欢说的那样。 正如罗纳德·里根所说，“与任何其他国家相比，我们的力量来自于我们自己的移民遗产，以及我们接纳来自其他国家的人的能力。” 移民创始人或联合创始人占所有收入超过 10 亿美元的初创企业的 50%，并为该国劳动力贡献了四分之一的 STEM 领域的员工。移民或移民后代创办了 45% 的财富 500 强公司。 移民也不会从黑人工人或任何本土工人那里抢走工作。拜登-哈里斯政府将黑人工人的失业率降至历史低点，并看到超过一半的就业增长归功于黑人工人，而更多的工作岗位仍然空缺。 卡玛拉·哈里斯的支持者和顾问有理由对她在总统辩论中的出色表现感到欣喜若狂。但在庆祝的同时，他们应该为特朗普试图重新发起攻击而做准备，特朗普可能会在经济和移民问题上再次攻击哈里斯。以上问题体现了她相对的优势，哈里斯必须做好准备，用有力的事实来澄清这些观点，与特朗普的经济宣传形成对比，并纠正特朗普的经济宣传。 今年，大约有 40 部电影续集超越了它们的前作。其中一部回归的热门电影是今年夏天上映的迪士尼大片《头脑特工队 2》。现在，哈里斯竞选团队要求进行第二次辩论，经过准备，副总统可以将特朗普的政策彻底颠覆——对她的有利。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Photo Credit: Daniel Topic “Concerto for Peace” is an innovative global initiative led by pianist, composer, and humanitarian Omar Harfouch. With a series of planned performances in major cities worldwide, the initiative is set to inspire collective harmony by uniting people from different cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives. The project, starting with a highly anticipated debut performance on September 18, 2024, at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées in Paris, France, aims to bring the universal language of music to the front page of global conversations about peace. Accompanied by the Béziers Méditerranée Symphony Orchestra and maestro Matthieu Bonnin, “Concerto for Peace” intends to call people to action, to stand up in their own ways to spark change for conflict-torn communities across the globe. A Masterpiece for Peace: Striking the Right Chord in a Divided World “Concerto for Peace” brings together musicians from diverse countries and communities to promote understanding through shared artistic expression. “The way I see it, music has the power to connect people in ways words often cannot,” says Harfouch. “Our goal is to use the power of music to create a platform for dialogue, reconciliation, and healing.” Apart from being the name of the peace initiative, “Concerto for Peace”, is also the title of Harfouch’s 17-minute composition, a collaboration with the equally prestigious musician, Houtaf Khoury. The timeless piece combines classical and contemporary elements. The magnum opus for peace will be performed alongside his other world-renowned compositions, such as “Save One Life, Save All Humanity” and “La Fantaisie Orientale”. The launch of “Concerto for Peace” comes at a time when multiple parts of the world are combating significant social, political, and environmental challenges. Harfouch and his team hope to address these issues by creating shared experiences that cut across ideological, religious, and national boundaries. Harfouch notes, “Through this initiative, we want to spark conversations that lead to meaningful change, delivering a global movement that celebrates our shared humanity.” With high hopes for the future, Harfouch’s ultimate vision is to make “Concerto for Peace” a global movement that showcases the beauty of music while contributing to long-term efforts toward conflict resolution and intercultural dialogue. “It is going to take a lot more than music to change the world, but it can definitely be a catalyst for people to join the movement for peace,” Omar Harfouch concludes. “Our goal is to create an enduring legacy, where music serves as a constant reminder of our shared humanity and the power of collaboration.” Further performances are scheduled for the Vatican, Italian parliament, Shanghai, and the headquarters of the United Nations in Geneva.

通往真正人工智能精通的漫漫长路 Latest News

通往真正人工智能精通的漫漫长路

September 11, 2024
(SeaPRwire) - 在 20 世纪 70 年代初期，编程计算机需要在卡片上打孔，然后将卡片送入房间大小的机器，这些机器会通过行式打印机产生结果，通常需要数小时甚至数天才能完成。 计算机长期以来一直是这样运作的，正是在这种背景下，一支由 29 名科学家和研究人员组成的团队在著名的施乐 PARC 创建了我们今天所知晓的更亲密的计算形式：一种带有显示器、键盘和鼠标的计算机。这台名为 Alto 的计算机与众不同，以至于需要一个新的术语来描述它：交互式计算。 Alto 由于其昂贵的组件而被一些人视为过分奢侈。但快进 50 年，数万亿美元的供应链已经涌现，将富含二氧化硅的沙子转化为复杂而奇妙的计算机，这些计算机存在于我们的口袋中。交互式计算现已成为我们生活中不可分割的一部分。 硅谷再次被一种让人想起早期计算热潮的狂热所笼罩。通用人工智能 (AGI) 是一种对软件系统能够在没有特定指令的情况下解决任何问题的能力的统称，已经成为一场几乎触手可及的革命。 生成式 AI 的快速发展令人敬畏，这并非没有道理。正如摩尔定律描绘了个人计算的轨迹，梅特卡夫定律预测了互联网的增长一样，生成式 AI 的发展也遵循着一种指数级原理。深度学习的扩展定律假设 AI 模型的能力与其本身的大小以及用于训练它的数据的大小之间存在直接关系。 在过去两年中，领先的 AI 模型在两个维度上都经历了惊人的 100 倍增长，模型大小从在 1000 亿个单词上训练的 100 亿个参数扩展到在超过 10 万亿个单词上训练的 1 万亿个参数。 结果引人注目且有用。但个人计算的演变提供了一个有益的教训。从 Alto 到 iPhone 的轨迹是一条漫长而曲折的道路。健壮的操作系统的开发、充满活力的应用程序生态系统以及互联网本身都是至关重要的里程碑，每一个里程碑都依赖于其他子发明和基础设施：编程语言、蜂窝网络、数据中心以及安全、软件和服务行业的创建等等。 AI 受益于许多这样的基础设施，但它也是一个重要的突破。例如，大型语言模型 (LLM) 在语言理解和生成方面表现出色，但在推理能力方面却很挣扎，而推理能力对于处理复杂的多步骤任务至关重要。然而，解决这一挑战可能需要创建新的神经网络架构或用于训练和使用它们的全新方法，而学术界和研究机构产生新见解的速度表明我们还处于早期阶段。 我们 Together AI 专注于这些模型的训练和服务，这既是一项计算奇迹，也是一个泥潭。由 Nvidia 主要创建的定制 AI 超级计算机或训练集群代表了硅设计的前沿。这些系统由数万个高性能处理器组成，通过先进的光学网络互连，它们作为一个统一的超级计算机运行。然而，它们的运行成本很高：与传统 CPU 相比，它们的功耗高出一个数量级，产生的热量也相当。后果远非微不足道。Meta 最近发表的一篇论文详细介绍了 Llama 3.1 模型系列在 16,000 处理器集群上的训练过程，揭示了一个惊人的统计数据：该系统在 69% 的运行时间内都无法使用。 随着硅技术继续根据摩尔定律发展，需要创新来优化芯片性能，同时最大限度地降低能耗并减轻随之而来的热量产生。到 2030 年，数据中心可能会发生彻底转型，需要对计算的底层物理基础设施进行根本性突破。 AI 已经成为一个地缘政治上充满争议的领域，其战略意义可能会加剧，并可能在未来几年成为技术优势的关键决定因素。随着 AI 的改进，AI 对工作性质和劳动力市场的影响也势必成为一个日益引起争议的社会问题。 但还有很多工作要做，我们有机会用 AI 塑造我们的未来。我们应该期待在未来几年涌现出大量创新型数字产品和服务，这些产品和服务将吸引和赋能用户。从长远来看，人工智能将发展成为超级智能系统，这些系统将像计算一样成为我们生活中不可分割的一部分。人类社会在数千年来一直吸收着新的颠覆性技术，并重塑自己以在这些技术的帮助下繁荣发展——人工智能也不例外。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

JPMorgan 股价因高管言论下跌 Finance

JPMorgan 股价因高管言论下跌

September 11, 2024
(SeaPRwire) - JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM) 的股价在该公司联席总裁兼首席运营官丹尼尔·平托发表讲话后出现下跌。平托谈到了利率上升可能对银行盈利能力造成的影响。平托表示，虽然利率上升通常通过扩大借贷利率与存款利率之间的差额而使银行受益，但存在一个阈值，超过该阈值，由于贷款需求下降和违约增加，这种收益会减少。 平托强调，当前的经济环境，其特点是通货膨胀压力和美联储可能加息，这对金融机构来说是一个复杂的挑战。他指出，JPMorgan 正在密切关注这种情况，并相应地调整其策略。该银行的目标是在利用更高利率的同时，减轻相关的风险。 此外，平托还强调了保持多元化投资组合以抵御特定行业潜在下滑的重要性。他提到，JPMorgan 广泛的网络和多样化的服务在应对不确定的经济环境方面具有显著优势。 尽管股价近期下跌，但分析师对 JPMorgan 的长期前景仍然持乐观态度。许多人认为，该银行强大的资本实力和战略举措将使其能够渡过短期挑战，并继续为股东创造价值。但是，他们警告说，未来的道路需要谨慎的管理，并对不断变化的市场条件做出灵活的应对。 在更广泛的背景下，金融市场一直在动荡，原因是对通货膨胀以及全球央行可能采取更激进的货币政策立场感到担忧。投资者尤其关注像 JPMorgan 这样的主要金融机构将如何适应这些变化，以及这对他们的盈利能力和增长前景意味着什么。 总的来说，这种情况突出了银行在利率波动和经济不确定的环境中必须保持的微妙平衡。随着 JPMorgan 和其他金融巨头应对这些挑战，他们的表现和战略决策将受到投资者和分析师的密切关注。 脚注： 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。 平托谈到了利率上升可能对银行盈利能力造成的影响。 平托还强调了保持多元化投资组合以抵御特定行业潜在下滑的重要性。

Rentokil 股价在 Peltz 的影响下暴跌 Finance

Rentokil 股价在 Peltz 的影响下暴跌

September 11, 2024
(SeaPRwire) - 全球领先的害虫防治服务提供商Rentokil Initial最近经历了股价大幅下跌。此次下跌发生在知名激进投资者尼尔森·佩尔茨采取战略行动之后。佩尔茨的投资公司Trian Fund Management对其在Rentokil的策略进行了显著调整，导致该公司股价大幅下跌。 Rentokil股价的突然暴跌引发了投资者和分析师对该公司未来方向的担忧。佩尔茨以其激进的投资策略和对公司重组的要求而闻名，他一直以来都对公司的运营策略产生重大影响。他参与Rentokil可能预示着即将到来的变化，这些变化可能与短期投资者的预期不符。 佩尔茨的Trian Fund Management已收购了Rentokil的巨额股份，旨在推动战略性变革，以提高股东价值。然而，这些变化通常伴随着股价的初始波动，因为市场适应新的方向。投资者对佩尔茨影响下可能出现的重大重组或资产出售持谨慎态度。 Rentokil的管理层向利益相关者保证，公司将继续致力于其长期增长战略。他们强调，任何战略性变革都将以公司和股东的最佳利益为重。尽管有此保证，但股市的反应凸显了激进投资者干预所带来的不确定性。 历史上，佩尔茨参与的公司取得了喜忧参半的结果。虽然一些公司从他的战略洞察力和重组计划中受益，但其他公司在过渡期内面临挑战。市场分析师密切关注Rentokil的情况，他们热切地想看看该公司在佩尔茨影响下的战略如何发展。 Rentokil Initial (NYSE:RTO)一直是害虫防治行业的主导力量，在全球各个地区都有强大的影响力。该公司广泛的服务组合和强大的运营框架使其在市场中处于领先地位。然而，当前的市场波动表明，投资者对佩尔茨的战略举措将如何影响公司的运营效率和市场地位持不确定态度。 佩尔茨参与Rentokil的更广泛影响可能超出短期股价波动的范围。如果成功，他的战略可能会导致运营效率提高，利润率提高以及长期股东价值增加。相反，如果市场认为这些变化具有破坏性或与Rentokil的核心优势不符，该公司可能会面临持续的动荡时期。 总之，尼尔森·佩尔茨战略性行动后Rentokil股价下跌突出了激进投资者干预所带来的复杂性和不确定性。随着Rentokil度过这一过渡阶段，利益相关者将密切关注该公司的战略决策和市场表现。佩尔茨参与的最终影响将取决于Rentokil如何有效地平衡短期市场反应和长期增长目标。 脚注： 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。 Trian的战略调整后，Rentokil的股价大幅下跌。

“Ashes of the Kingdom” Breaks Barriers to Captivate the World: Chinese Female-Oriented Games Showcase Global Impact

September 11, 2024
SINGAPORE, Sept 11, 2024 – (ACN Newswire) – Recently, a Chinese female-oriented game, Ashes of the Kingdom, has been making waves across East Asia. With its exceptional artwork and unique storyline, it is overcoming language barriers and winning the hearts of players across East Asia and even globally. At the AFA Anime Festival in Singapore, one particular character caught the attention of attendees – the striking and charismatic Sun Ce from Ashes of the Kingdom. This character has become a favorite among cosplay enthusiasts this year. After one Japanese cosplayer impersonated Sun Ce, a user commented, “He looks powerful and cool, I really like him.” Not only Sun Ce, but another character, Liu Bian, has also garnered much admiration. In a video featuring Liu Bian’s monologue, fans fervently discussed the plot, demanding faster localization translations. One even remarked, “I need to learn Chinese just to play this game.” Ashes of the Kingdom, developed by Ling Xi Games and published by Qookka Games, was launched in 2023. It quickly rose to the top of the free game charts in Hong Kong and Macao and became one of the top downloads in several Southeast Asian countries. It was also shortlisted for Google’s Best Storyline Game of the Year, marking a new highlight for China’s cultural export efforts. So, what makes this game so captivating? First and foremost, its outstanding quality. Ashes of the Kingdom is a card-based narrative game with a female-centered storyline and rich Eastern aesthetics. It utilizes high-precision Live2D technology and cinematic camera work to create an immersive narrative experience for players. The game is set in a chaotic era, where the player assumes the role of the cross-dressing Prince of Guangling, who also leads the intelligence organization, Xiu Yi Lou. Players uncover hidden secrets beneath gentle appearances and experience intense emotional confrontations between equals. In China, several media outlets have praised the game as “irreplaceable,” recognizing its uniqueness. The allure of Ashes of the Kingdom extends beyond its stunning visuals and engaging plot to its rich infusion of Chinese culture. The game’s scenes, props, and music are steeped in Han cultural elements, sparking players’ curiosity. On TikTok, a Vietnamese player translated the eyebrow-painting scene featuring Yuan Ji, garnering over ten thousand likes. The comment section buzzed with excitement, with viewers sharing that in Chinese culture, painting eyebrows is a way of expressing love. The Han-style music in the game has also left Vietnamese players in awe. Beyond Southeast Asia, Ashes of the Kingdom seems to be spreading its influence worldwide. In the U.S., one player voluntarily translated the game into English, aiming to share the captivating plot with a wider audience. In London, players dressed in Ashes of the Kingdom cosplay were spotted at landmarks like Big Ben and Trafalgar Square, drawing admiring glances from passersby. The game’s influence has transcended the virtual world and entered the physical market. According to data from Taobao’s overseas platform, Ashes of the Kingdom merchandise has been sold in over 120 countries and regions, particularly thriving in Asian markets. Consumers from Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Malaysia, and Thailand have shown a special preference for products such as apparel and stationery, reflecting the game’s IP influence far beyond the game itself. In recent years, many Chinese games, like Genshin Impact and Black Myth: Wukong, have captured the attention of global players. These games are striving to become ambassadors of Chinese culture, showcasing the modern allure of an ancient civilization. The new trend sparked by Ashes of the Kingdom further demonstrates the growing strength of China’s gaming industry. Ashes of the Kingdom’s journey is far from over, and its legend is only just beginning. Website: https://www.qookkagames.global
