Both music and dance originated from religious activities. The development of religious music and religious songs has promoted the inheritance and spread of religion. The two complement each other and bring out the best in each other. The Christian classic “Bible” has had an important influence on the development of world music, especially the development of European and American music. It is not an exaggeration to say that Christian music laid the foundation for European and American music and is the pioneer of European and American music.

Some people suggest relying on “big data” on the grounds that starting from data, evidence and facts, we have a greater chance of forming correct understanding and making wise decisions. However, “big data” itself may not necessarily provide us with a new perspective for viewing things and examining the world. Even with “big data”, we may still make stupid decisions. 　　This is where the book Framed Thinking by Victor Mayer-Schönberger, Francis DeVicicu, and Kenneth Cukye comes in: even when faced with the exact same data, because Using different mental models,…

In the capital market in those years, investors’ valuation of the Internet industry and “traditional industries” was a typical “dual standard”: if the same company is considered to belong to a traditional industry, no matter how high the profit is, it will “lack growth”. And as long as it can be labeled as an “Internet company”, it will immediately have…
