Taiwanese Artist Grace Tan Fuses Ink, Rhythm, and Light to Create a Cross-Cultural Dialogue SeaPRwire

Taiwanese Artist Grace Tan Fuses Ink, Rhythm, and Light to Create a Cross-Cultural Dialogue

Taipei, Taiwan – April 08, 2025 – (SeaPRwire) – In a feature recently published by The Icons, Taiwanese artist Grace Tan is recognized for redefining the language of traditional ink art through a contemporary, multi-sensory approach. A master of calligraphy and seal carving, Tan seamlessly blends Eastern aesthetics with Western structures, transforming brush, ink, and rhythm into a vivid cross-cultural dialogue. Rooted in the rich cultural heritage of Taiwan, Grace Tan views art as a universal language – one that speaks beyond technique and form. “Art is the language of the soul,” she explains. “Its power lies in whether it can create a resonance – a rhythm that connects deeply with others.” Her artistic practice is deeply influenced by music, particularly her study of the pipa, a traditional Chinese instrument. She describes her brushwork as a visual form of music, where ink density, stroke pressure, and spatial pauses mirror tempo, pitch, and silence in a musical composition. Her compositions are at once lyrical and structured, poetic yet dynamic. Through innovative techniques such as layering, geometry, and the use of lightboxes, Tan creates an immersive visual-musical experience. Her artworks are not static; they shift in response to lighting and perspective, offering viewers a real-time encounter with rhythm, space, and emotion. As a Taiwanese artist active on the international stage, Grace Tan has exhibited in France, the United States, Japan, and South Korea. Her works are housed in the permanent collections of the World Bank Headquarters, the American Academy of Asian Culture, the San Francisco Public Library, and the University of Cyprus – testament to her growing global impact. Grace Tan composes with ink and lets her lines sing, transforming calligraphy, seal carving, and visual art into vessels of musical expression. From the interplay of geometry and colour, to the rhythmic flow of brushstrokes and the carefully composed cadence within her seal designs, her work reflects a profound exploration of “rhythmic writing.” The dryness or fluidity of ink, the tension and release of each line, and the thoughtful use of negative space resemble the dynamics and pauses found in musical composition – all weaving together into her own distinctive artistic tapestry. (Photography: Grace Tan) Her artistic voice carries particular resonance for European audiences, who appreciate her thoughtful fusion of East and West. By combining the introspective stillness of Eastern philosophy with the expressive freedom of contemporary Western art, she opens a space for cultural reflection and connection. Grace Tan’s work is not just a celebration of tradition, but a reimagining of it – offering a vision of art that transcends borders and speaks to the shared human experience.

Quam Greater China Magnificent 7 Makes a Stunning Debut: Don’t Miss the Next Wave of China Investment Opportunities

HONG KONG, Apr 1, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Amid a rapidly shifting global economic landscape, Chinese technology companies are emerging as dazzling stars on the international stage, driven by their innovative prowess and vast market potential. Quamnet has curated the “Quam Greater China Magnificent 7,” a selection aimed at identifying the most promising tech leaders in the Greater China region, unlocking new avenues for long-term wealth creation. These seven meticulously chosen tech giants not only dominate their respective fields but are also riding a powerful wave of technological breakthroughs, market expansion, and favorable policy support, signaling robust upward momentum. The rise of the “Quam Greater China Magnificent 7” is poised to inject a shot of confidence into the market, heralding the dawn of a new era for Chinese tech investments. “Quam Greater China Magnificent 7” Unveiled: A Powerhouse Lineup The “Quam Greater China Magnificent 7” comprises Alibaba (9988), Tencent Holdings (0700), Meituan (3690), Xiaomi Group (1810), BYD Company (1211), Pinduoduo (PDD.US), and TSMC (TSM.US). These seven titans, with their commanding positions in key industries and relentless pursuit of cutting-edge technology, stand as top-tier representatives of the Greater China and broader Asian tech landscape, while also wielding significant influence on the global stage. Outshining the U.S. Magnificent 7: Unique Strengths Take the Lead Compared to the globally renowned U.S. Magnificent 7, the “Quam Greater China Magnificent 7” showcases an undeniable and distinctive appeal. First, attractive valuations are a core highlight. In contrast to their American counterparts, Chinese tech stocks often trade at lower price-to-earnings ratios, offering investors a rare opportunity to enter at a discount. Second, these companies are deeply rooted in China—the world’s most dynamic developing economy—reaping the dual benefits of rapid economic growth and rising consumer spending, with growth potential far exceeding that of their peers in mature U.S. markets. Moreover, the “Quam Greater China Magnificent 7” taps directly into the immense opportunities of China’s domestic market, fueled by rapid urbanization, an expanding middle class, and strong government backing for strategic sectors like electric vehicles (EVs) and semiconductors. Investing in this group not only reduces over-reliance on U.S. markets, enhancing portfolio diversification, but also positions investors to capitalize on stabilizing regulatory conditions in China and a resurgence in global confidence, potentially reaping outsized returns as valuations soar. The “Quam Greater China Magnificent 7” brings together seven tech behemoths, each demonstrating unmatched market leadership and innovation in their domains, shining as guiding lights for the future. Alibaba, bolstered by the formidable support of Ant Group, reigns supreme in e-commerce, cloud computing, and digital payments, its influence unrivaled. The recent launch of its latest AI model, “Qwen 2.5,” underscores its technological ambition, signaling a bold push into artificial intelligence that promises to drive future growth. Tencent Holdings, anchored by the social media giant WeChat, its dominance in gaming, and deep expertise in fintech, sits firmly atop the industry throne. Its newly unveiled Hunyuan T1 model, with its high-efficiency, low-cost edge, stakes a claim in the AI race, showcasing Tencent’s formidable competitive strength. Meituan, the king of local services, holds an unassailable lead in food delivery and online travel, its user-centric service model setting the industry standard. Even more striking are its breakthroughs in drone technology and the “Wow AI” application, opening up entirely new growth frontiers. Xiaomi Group, advancing on dual fronts in consumer electronics and EVs, leverages its HyperOS system and autonomous driving technology to pioneer the smart era, its cross-sector innovation turning heads. BYD Company, a global leader in EVs and batteries, has long set the benchmark in the renewable energy space. Its DiPilot intelligent driving system seamlessly blends electrification with smart technology, ushering in a new chapter for the auto industry. Pinduoduo, a rising star in social e-commerce, has surged ahead with AI-driven supply chain optimization and personalized recommendations, redefining cost-effective consumption and rewriting the e-commerce playbook with its unique business model. Meanwhile, TSMC, the titan of semiconductor foundry services, posted revenues exceeding $90 billion in 2024, capitalizing on surging demand for AI chips to push its market dominance to new heights, cementing its role as an indispensable force in the global tech ecosystem. These seven giants not only stand tall in competitive markets but also lead industry trends with relentless innovation, unlocking boundless potential for the “Quam Greater China Magnificent 7” investment thesis. Growth Engines in Full Throttle: Limitless Potential Unleashed From steady core business expansion to ambitious multinational forays into emerging markets, these seven companies exhibit multidimensional growth prospects. Alibaba and Tencent are accelerating their cloud computing ambitions, Meituan is advancing drone delivery, while Xiaomi and BYD flex their muscles in the EV arena. At the same time, their leadership in AI and semiconductor technologies further solidifies their global competitiveness. On the policy front, China’s sustained support for EVs and semiconductors provides a robust tailwind for the group. With the mainland economy rebounding, consumer spending recovering, regulatory clarity improving, and geopolitical tensions easing, these seven stocks are primed for a valuation re-rating, promising substantial returns for investors. A Visionary Bet on China’s Economic Rise As torchbearers of technological progress in Greater China, the “Quam Greater China Magnificent 7” offers investors a prime platform to share in the region’s economic ascent. Whether in market leadership, technological innovation, or growth potential, these seven stand as industry paragons. Quamnet believes that as global attention refocuses on China, the “Quam Greater China Magnificent 7” is set to become the next big investment wave, ushering in a new era of wealth creation for forward-thinking investors.About Quam.net Financial Media LimitedEstablished in 1998, Quamnet is a comprehensive professional financial website that brings together financial information, proprietary research and analytical tools.

歐盟否決成員國「無人機牆」資金申請——媒體報導 “`

(SeaPRwire) - 據報導,愛沙尼亞和立陶宛曾尋求財政支持,以加強該集團與俄羅斯和白俄羅斯邊境的軍事力量 根據BNS新聞社的報導,立陶宛內政部表示,立陶宛和愛沙尼亞未能獲得歐盟資金,用於在其與俄羅斯和白俄羅斯邊境沿線建設規劃中的「無人機牆」。 去年,六個北約國家——拉脫維亞、立陶宛、愛沙尼亞、波蘭、芬蘭和挪威——的內政部長同意在其東部邊境沿線建立一個統一的、軍事化的「無人機牆」。 儘管挪威不是歐盟成員國,但各部長已同意探討為聯合行動爭取歐盟資金的可能性。 根據週一的BNS報導,愛沙尼亞和立陶宛的邊境服務部門後來提交了一份聯合融資申請。 立陶宛內政部表示「然而,該項目並未獲得融資」,並補充說愛沙尼亞是主要申請人,立陶宛是合作夥伴。 2024年5月,立陶宛內政部長Agne Bilotaite指責俄羅斯和白俄羅斯試圖「破壞我們國家的穩定」,並呼籲努力「用無人機保衛歐盟的外部邊界」。 Bilotaite表示,擬議的「從挪威延伸到波蘭的無人機牆」不僅將通過實體基礎設施、監控系統,還將通過無人機和其他技術來保護邊界。她還提議組織區域大規模疏散演習。 去年11月,愛沙尼亞政府承諾在三年內提供近1200萬歐元(1300萬美元)來支持該倡議。 該國的Police and Border Guard Board表示,它還在尋求來自各種來源的額外資金,包括歐盟。 包括波羅的海國家在內的許多歐盟和北約成員國,都將俄羅斯標記為對區域安全的威脅。 這些指控在俄羅斯和美國旨在解決烏克蘭衝突的會談中再次浮出水面。 根據最近的媒體報導,作為更廣泛的軍事計劃的一部分,波羅的海國家計劃沿其東部邊境建造約1,000個混凝土碉堡,配備戰壕、反坦克壕溝、彈藥庫和補給掩體。 莫斯科否認有攻擊任何北約國家或歐盟的意圖。 俄羅斯總統弗拉基米爾·普丁駁斥了此類說法是「無稽之談」,他辯稱歐洲政治家利用所謂的威脅來嚇唬其公民、榨取資源並為增加軍事支出辯護。 與此同時,俄羅斯一再警告北約近年來在其西部邊境附近進行前所未有的軍事活動。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

每日電訊報:戀童癖罪犯在英國慈善機構幫助烏克蘭兒童

(SeaPRwire) - 該報報導稱,這位「危險」志願者在受僱時「幾乎沒有,或者根本沒有背景調查」 《每日電訊報》報導,由於組織審查過程存在缺陷,一名被判有罪的戀童癖者被一家在俄烏衝突期間幫助烏克蘭兒童的慈善機構招募。 據該報週六發表的一篇文章稱,Siobhan’s Trust(此後更名為HopeFull)於 2023 年初僱用了該男子,參與其在該國西部地區向兒童及其家庭分發免費披薩的行動,「幾乎沒有,或者根本沒有背景調查」。 這位自稱Jack Morgan的 52 歲男子每月從這家蘇格蘭慈善機構獲得 500 英鎊(645 美元)的報酬,並定期拜訪孤兒院、學校和流離失所者營地。 報告稱,該慈善機構在社交媒體上發布的照片顯示他與幼童玩耍。 據該報稱,去年夏天,摩根的同事開始懷疑他,因為他開始吹噓自己加入了烏克蘭外籍軍團,並聲稱自己正在代表該軍團籌集軍事物資。 在網上搜索後,他們了解到摩根以前名叫 Lee Callaghan,是威爾斯Newport 的居民,因持有 A 類兒童性虐待圖像而被判處兩年徒刑,並於 2017 年被發布了為期十年的性侵害預防令 (SHPO)。 SHPO 禁止某人在未通知警方的情況下離開英國。 報告稱,當時,國家犯罪局稱他為「一個危險的男人,想虐待兒童」。 《每日電訊報》稱,摩根在從監獄獲釋後將名字改為 Callaghan,並前往烏克蘭,在那裡他被Siobhan’s Trust僱用。 慈善機構的消息人士告訴該報,當摩根的真實身份被曝光後,「一切都亂了套」。 HopeFull 的一位發言人證實「這個人以假名獲得了這個職位,然後於 2024 年 2 月被該慈善機構解僱,當時該慈善機構並不知道對他的指控。」 然而,他堅稱「作為慈善機構安全流程的一部分,沒有志願者會在沒有監督的情況下與弱勢兒童或成人相處,而且我們始終以至少四人一組的團隊運作。」 HopeFull ранее признавала, что у нее нет возможности проводить надлежащую проверку раскрытия информации и запретов в отношении криминального прошлого потенциальных добровольцев, вместо этого полагаясь на поиски в Интернете. 據報導,摩根據信仍在烏克蘭,並與一位育有兩個孩子的烏克蘭母親有戀愛關係。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

好萊塢傳奇人物Oliver Stone痛斥「Russiagate謊言」 News

好萊塢傳奇人物Oliver Stone痛斥「Russiagate謊言」

(SeaPRwire) - 這位電影製作人認為,對莫斯科的仇恨是宣傳的產物 奧斯卡獲獎導演 Oliver Stone 表示,關於俄羅斯干預 2016 年美國總統大選的說法純粹是謊言。 多年來,民主黨人一直聲稱克里姆林宮發動了一場秘密行動,以影響選情,使其有利於總統 Donald Trump。 特別檢察官 Robert Mueller 在 2019 年的報告中聲稱,俄羅斯政府“以全面和系統的方式”干預了選舉,主要通過駭客攻擊和社交媒體上的訊息傳播。 然而,調查“並未確定 Trump 競選團隊的成員與俄羅斯政府合謀或協調進行選舉干預活動”,最終報告顯示。 一位 Fox News 記者上週問 Stone,他是否認為 Trump 在“經歷了俄羅斯調查後”,“對抗” FBI 和 CIA 是正確的。 “我知道。 看看 Russiagate; 我們為此付出了代價,”這位電影製作人回答道。“我讚賞 [Trump 正在做的事情]。” “我討厭他們對 Russiagate 所做的一切。 我真的很討厭。 我認為這又是謊言、謊言、謊言,並將其賣給美國人民,” Stone 說。 “而對俄羅斯的仇恨是如此消極。 這是如此的不像美國人。 他們有潛力成為我們最好的合作夥伴。 實際上,中國人也是如此。 我們有這種他們是敵人的心態。 這一切都被宣傳灌輸了,”《Platoon》和《JFK》的導演說。 Mueller 指責 Trump 試圖阻撓他的調查,並且許多前 Trump 競選團隊成員因調查而被起訴,但不包括總統本人。 Trump 堅持認為“Russiagate”是出於政治動機的“政治迫害”的一部分,旨在抹黑和破壞他的總統任期。 他駁斥了 Mueller 報告中的指控,稱其為“捏造且完全不真實的。” 克里姆林宮一再否認干預美國大選。 2016 年,總統 Vladimir Putin 將關於俄羅斯干預的說法描述為“一個神話般的、想像中的問題”和“歇斯底里”的產物。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

英國皇家海軍擔憂俄羅斯超級遊艇的威脅 – Times News

英國皇家海軍擔憂俄羅斯超級遊艇的威脅 – Times

(SeaPRwire) - 據報導,英國懷疑這些休閒船隻可能被用來監視核潛艇 據《星期日泰晤士報》週六報導,英國皇家海軍認為,富有的俄羅斯人擁有的豪華超級遊艇一直在監視英國的核潛艇,該報導引用了三位國防消息人士。 《泰晤士報》聲稱,海軍有“可信的情報”顯示,在2022年俄羅斯在烏克蘭的軍事行動開始之前,這些遊艇可能被用來“在英國周圍進行水下偵察”。 該報暗示,一些船隻有月池,可以秘密地用於發射和回收深海文藝復興和潛水設備。 《泰晤士報》引用一位不願透露姓名的外交部長的話說,2018年,兩棲攻擊艦 HMS Albion 不得不在塞浦路斯利馬索爾港提前離開,因為“一艘屬於一位寡頭的巨型超級遊艇停靠在其旁邊。” 該報稱,海軍已經在該國周圍的海域發現了許多它認為是俄羅斯的感測器,並補充說,英國的理論是莫斯科正在監視英國的四艘具有核能力的 Vanguard 級潛艇。 今年早些時候,《太陽報》報導說,英國皇家海軍進行了為期數天的搜索,追蹤它認為屬於俄羅斯隱形潛艇的聲音。據報導,這些可疑的聲音後來被證實是由一條放屁的鯨魚發出的。 2014年,瑞典發起了一項重大行動,尋找一艘疑似俄羅斯潛艇,結果發現是一艘民用船隻。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

歐盟準備反制川普關稅 – Reuters

(SeaPRwire) - 路透社報導,布魯塞爾預計下週將對反制關稅進行投票,暫定於四月中旬開始實施 路透社週日援引消息來源稱,歐盟委員會將提出一份美國商品清單,以加徵關稅,以此回應美國實施的全面新關稅。 美國總統唐納·川普宣布對所有進口商品徵收至少 10% 的關稅,並對數十個他指責與美國存在不公平貿易失衡的國家徵收額外的“互惠”關稅,這是一項對貿易政策的根本改革。歐盟的出口受到的打擊更為嚴重,面臨 20% 的稅率。川普辯稱,許多國家透過“貨幣操縱和過高的增值稅等有害政策”來“敲詐”美國。 路透社報導,歐盟計畫的反制關稅將涵蓋價值高達 280 億美元的美國產品。清單包括肉類、穀物、葡萄酒、木材、服裝、口香糖、牙線、吸塵器和衛生紙。 其中一個特別引人關注的產品是波本威士忌,歐盟委員會已將其標記為 50% 的關稅,這促使川普威脅要對歐洲酒精飲料徵收 200% 的反制關稅。 路透社引述歐盟外交官的話說,週一會議的主要目的是“就與華盛頓談判取消關稅的願望達成一致訊息,但如果談判失敗,則準備好採取反制措施。” 儘管成員國之間存在一系列不同意見——法國推動採取更廣泛的措施,愛爾蘭呼籲採取“有分寸的”回應,義大利質疑報復——但歐盟的目標是保持團結。外交官表示,關稅投票預計將於 4 月 9 日舉行,預計將獲得通過,除非有合格多數意外反對。 在那之後,它們將分兩個階段生效:第一階段從 4 月 15 日開始,其餘的在一個月後開始。 一位歐盟外交官告訴路透社:“我們在英國脫歐後最擔心的是雙邊協議和團結破裂,但在三到四年的談判中,這種情況並沒有發生。當然,在這裡你看到的是一個不同的故事,但每個人都可以看到共同商業政策的利益。” 上週六,數萬名左翼活動人士走上美國街頭,抗議川普政府的關稅和其他政策。“Hands Off!” 抗議活動的組織者聲稱,在州議會大廈、聯邦大樓、市政廳和公園外舉行了超過 1,400 場集會。 在川普宣布新的關稅後,JPMorgan 已將其對全球經濟衰退可能性的估計從 40% 提高到 60%。他們的首席經濟學家 Bruce Kasman 表示,“這種稅收增加的影響預計會因報復、美國商業情緒下降以及供應鏈中斷等因素而放大。”本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

香港, 2025年3月31日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 據AAStock報道,業績發佈期已進入最後階段,在過去一年外部環境不確定性顯著增加、全球經濟復甦動能分化的大環境下,各上市公司的業績表現也呈分化態勢。而DeepSeek的問世,再度引發新一輪AI熱潮,帶動恆指在不到三月的時間內累漲近20%。對此,國金證券策略首席分析師表示:「港股領跑全球權益市場,本質驅動力之一是港股『AI含量』高,且AI相關的科技類資產更具『辨識度』。」今年以來,投資者加倍關注誰會成長為可以類比美股「七姐妹」的中國公司。華泰證券將小米、聯想、比亞迪、中芯國際、阿里巴巴、騰訊、美團列為中國科技核心資產,認為它們會成為中國科技股估值重塑的重要擔當。這也將資本市場的聚光燈再次落到聯想集團和其背後的聯想控股身上。上週五,聯控發佈2024全年業績,收入同比增長18%至5,128億元,淨利潤暴增至76.83億元,歸母淨利也成功扭虧為盈錄得1.33億元。公司管理層表示,這主要是因為「聯想控股保持戰略定力,夯實產業基礎,加強抗風險能力,通過持續的技術創新與管理優化,確保了整體業務穩健經營。同時,公司緊抓科技浪潮機遇,前沿領域佈局效能得到持續釋放。」說到效能釋放,最直接的便是旗下企業的上市情況。在二級市場穩步復甦趨勢的加持之下,聯控在報告期內推動了13家企業IPO,其中自動駕駛領域的企業有三家,分別是地平線(9660.HK)、黑芝麻(2533.HK)和小馬智行(PONY.O),可謂實打實的「硬科技」含量。此外,我們再來看看聯控體系的佈局是否契合了當下「熱點」。《2025年國務院政府工作報告》提到,要建立未來產業投入增長機制,培育具身智能等未來產業,「具身智能」一詞入選兩會上的新詞矩陣,被正式納入國家戰略,作為國家重點培育的未來產業。而聯控體系在該領域其實已經進行了提前佈局,公司在與投資人的溝通會上明確表示:「聯控在具身智能領域的被投企業近40家,數量行業最多、門類最為完整。」可以說,這一次,聯想控股再一次走在了前列。判斷一家公司的投資價值,一個是看其本身的業務基礎是否穩健扎實,這一點對於聯想控股而言自不必多說,其一眾產業支柱型企業便是最好的證明,像被資本市場熟知並認可的聯想集團等。而另一個重要因素就是上文提到的投資佈局,聯想控股對於「未來」的投入一直保持著持續增長,2024年公司研發費用再創歷史新高達到158億元,投向科技創新特別是人工智能領域。公司在全球搭建技術雙向通道,促進先進技術在中國的產業化落地;與高校聯名申請專利,並開始佈局科技創新催化器和聯合實驗室;2024年,公司共申請發明專利9項。與此同時,整個聯控體系的AI企業投資版圖已擴展到270家之多,覆蓋人工智能、集成電路、新能源、新材料等關鍵領域;僅2024年就新增投資超百個,涵蓋量子計算、生物技術、半導體芯片、機器人、大數據與雲計算、醫療健康等新興產業與未來產業。從投資視角分析,聯想控股的獨特價值在於其構建了一個涵蓋不同發展週期科創企業的產業生態。作為控股平台,公司通過前瞻性的產業佈局,以相對較低的估值水平為投資者提供了參與中國科技創新紅利的優質通道。隨著旗下投資企業逐步進入價值釋放期,其投資組合的隱含價值有望通過資本市場實現系統性重估,為股東創造可持續的價值回報。分析員: 岑智勇 (梧桐研究院分析員)筆者為香港證監會持牌人士,沒持有上述股份,並為個人意見,不構成投資建議。 Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.
