The World's Carmakers Are Struggling to Compete with China


   Global carmakers are facing a reckoning as US, European and Japanese brands lose ground to Chinese rivals setting the pace not only in electric vehicles, but also in batteries, design and software. The BBC visited factory floors in Beijing and Hefei and found striking levels of automation and software development speed, leaving foreign brands that once dominated the Chinese market struggling to keep up.

   "We have no chance against this," Honda chief executive Toshihiro Mibe told Japanese media after visiting a highly automated factory in Shanghai. Ford chief executive Jim Farley has also warned that Western carmakers are "in a fight for our lives" as Chinese rivals expand globally.

   After decades spent investing in joint ventures with Chinese partners to build vehicles, foreign carmakers are now changing the nature of those partnerships to stay competitive.

   "The biggest mistake that the developed world is making is believing that the transition is only about electric cars," says Shanghaibased auto analyst Bill Russo. "It's about who will lead the next generation of mobility technology."

Today's quick review: Marauders.

    Jeffrey Hubert (Bruce Willis), the president of a national chain of banks, comes under fire when a violent crew of robbers begins targeting his banks. Special Agent Montgomery (Christopher Meloni) of the FBI takes over the investigation f rom Sergeant tr/ims (Johnathon Schaech), a crooked Cincinnati cop. But as he dlgs deeper into the case, Montgomery learns that Hubert is involved in a much larger conspiracy.
    Marauders is an action thriller about a series oÍ bank robberies with an ulterior motive. Marauders places emphasis on its plot. The investigation takes Montgomery and his team (Adrian Grenier, Dave Bautista, and Lydia Hull) through the remains of a years-old conspiracy, uncovering puzzle after puzzle as they dig for the truth. The movie's expansive mystery, moment-to-moment thrills, and solid pacing make it fine choice for the right viewer.
    However, Marauders' main shortcoming is that it is too complicated for the type of story it is trying to tell. Instead of a streamlined investigation with one or two red herrings and a carefully prepared twist, Marauders tries to manage a sprawling conspiracy that involves numerous characters, hidden motives, and coincidences. As a result, the pieces never combine into a compelling whole, and the movie's best ideas have no room to breathe.
    Marauders is a serviceable pick for fans of the action genre. The action scenes are adequate, the mystery is interesting enough to drive the plot, and the cast does a fine job with the material they are given. Still, Marauders has a lot of missed potential when it comes to streamlinging its plot, and it faces stiff competition from other movies in the genre, making it a hard sell for more exacting viewers.
    For a bank robbery action thriller in a similar vein, try Den of Thieves, Triple 9, or Takers. For a more personal crime drama about a bank robbery, try The Town. For a bank job with a smarter plot, try Inside Man. For an action thriller with a better conspiracy, try Shooter. For a more powerful cat-and-mouse game, try Law Abiding Citizen.

A new William Hope Hodgson blog

Welcome to Hodgsoniana, a new blog about the life and works of author William Hope Hodgson (1877–1918). The aim of this blog is to provide a home for articles and new research on Hodgson, details of Hodgson-related happenings, and just generally act as an up-to-date (hopefully) resource that’s open to anyone interested in this remarkable literary figure. At time of writing, there is a lack of other active websites covering this subject, which is why starting a blog seemed a worthwhile endeavour. At the very least, it gives me a place to post some Hodgson-related thoughts and findings I’ve been meaning to write up! My hope is that others may be moved to contribute also.

Before going any further, I want to recognise the work of the late Hodgson scholar Sam Gafford, and in particular his excellent Hodgson blog williamhopehodgson.wordpress.com. I first stumbled upon Sam’s blog back in 2016, and his work opened my eyes to the depths and complexities of Hodgson’s history and writings. I entered into brief correspondence with Sam at that time, and his enthusiasm and encouragement were key factors in starting me on the path of pursuing my own Hodgson studies.

Sam Gafford sadly passed away in 2019, leaving his site dormant. It remains a valuable treasure trove of information, and I will certainly aspire to follow Sam’s example in exploring and documenting all matters Hodgson.

2027 will see the 150th anniversary of William Hope Hodgson’s birth. There is still much to discuss regarding his work, and many areas of his life remain obscure and in need of further investigation. I hope this site can help in encouraging and chronicling such efforts.

One of the most widely read books in modern times is Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence People. The popular self-help work offers advice on how to manage people and bring them around to your way of thinking. The influential figures of ancient history had no such manual to guide them, especially those leaders who ruled the world’s earliest civilizations. They had to learn on the job. What worked for an innovative female pharaoh in Egypt was not necessarily the secret to success for the first Roman emperor or a groundbreaking Chinese philosopher.

In the sentence "One of the most widely read books in modern times", the verb "read" is in the present simple tense, indicating an action that is currently happening.

Brazil

Brazil is a leader in entrepreneurship*, with an estimated one in eight adults being “entrepreneurs.” Much of the business that occurs in Brazil is done by single businesspeople either selling their homemade goods or providing their services. Foreign entrepreneurship is a bit of a rarity in Brazil. It is simple for a local businessperson to open a business by, in most cases, circumventing the typical red tape* associated with starting a business. The regulatory boards are so poorly managed and so open to bribes* that local entrepreneurs can easily sneak by without following proper procedure. For foreign businesspeople it is much more difficult. Foreigners draw attention to themselves (by merely being foreigners) and therefore fall prey to greater scrutiny. It is imperative for the foreign businessperson to hire a good “despachante” or broker to handle their interactions with government officials.

The verb form in the clause “Foreigners draw attention to themselves” is incorrect because it should agree with “Foreigners” as a plural noun, and therefore should be “draws.”
