Over the years, China has made a fortune on the planet thanks to its photovoltaic production capacity.

Meanwhile, thanks to their range advantage, electric vehicles are not only sold in third-world countries, but have even entered established automotive nations like Germany and Japan.

Extreme weather has led to reduced grain production, which is a further blow to the food supply in some underdeveloped regions.

Therefore, in the past five years, as traditional energy sources have been transitioned to new energy sources, the energy and food costs faced by developing countries have been increasing.

The development of artificial intelligence and industrial automation is directly changing the entire industrialization process.

In developed countries, total factor costs will completely offset the disadvantage of labor costs once robotics technology reaches a certain stage of development.

This will lead to a shift in the global distribution of manufacturing, moving away from the current industrialization in countries like Annam and India and towards a return to America, Europe, and Japan.

The economies of South Asia and Southeast Asia were originally poised to take off through the restructuring of global supply chains, but this has been completely reversed by technological advancements.

Previously, China's manufacturing industry was gradually shifting to ASEAN countries, but this trend has slowed down due to the development of artificial intelligence and industrial automation.

Manufacturers are all taking a wait-and-see approach.

In particular, the smart steel production base jointly developed by Baosteel and Huayi this year.

It sounds like an industry with over two hundred years of history, but large steel production bases are quite complex.

If this can be achieved through artificial intelligence and industrial VR, it's only a matter of time before other lower-end manufacturing industries can follow suit.

Compared to China, the only advantage of Southeast Asian countries is their lower labor costs.

When artificial intelligence can offset this advantage, there will be no need to move manufacturing there anymore.

The scene shifts back to London, where three days later, Boris Johnson, unable to withstand the pressure, announced his resignation after the matter had been resolved.

This calmed things down a bit; at least someone was taking responsibility.

In other countries, whenever there is a change of government, the next administration can start fresh and leave all the previous problems to the previous administration.

However, the fundamental problem remains unresolved: the killer behind the random killings in London has not been found.

For the English government, there are two urgent priorities right now.

The first goal is to find the killer in the random murders, and the second goal is to explore the management model of the magical society.

London is already in talks with Hikvision, hoping to introduce Hikvision's products and build a Sky Eye system in London.

After this news broke, Hikvision's stock price surged to the daily limit for two consecutive days on the A-share market.

But this will take time.

Moreover, it cannot solve the problem at its root.

Two months of lockdown in London may not be enough.

This is an extremely tough test for Boris.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have wanted to import products from China, especially in such a sensitive area as surveillance.

Boris Johnson still hopes to resolve the issue perfectly, leaving room for a possible return to power later.

"It was another terrible day. These past few days, almost no one on set has been able to concentrate on their work, including the director."

It seems our progress will have to be delayed to some extent.

I also heard that Warner Bros. has been urging the director, saying that this is a rare opportunity and that our movie will definitely attract the attention of the whole world after its release.

Meanwhile, executives at Warner Bros. headquarters were asking the actors if they knew magic.

"We'll film some behind-the-scenes footage of the actors performing magic and put it at the end of the film; that'll definitely be a highlight." Lawrence's face was full of complaints.

He went to Warner Bros. for an interview and passed the initial selection thanks to his unique charisma and unexpected fame.

Later, Rowling named him as the lead actor in the latest Harry Potter film series.

They're going to film a story set after the Harry Potter finale, mainly about how the wizarding and secular worlds gradually merge under the pressure of a new Dark Lord.

The script was written by J.K. Rowling herself.

Harry Potter: An Accident at King's Cross Station, the first book in the new series, has been marketed and released worldwide by Warner Bros.

Filming had already begun before the movie was even released.

Lawrence is the lead actor in this film, and Herman is his agent.

Although Herman didn't even know what the agent was supposed to do.

However, Warner Bros. didn't mind keeping Herman around in order to maintain a good relationship with Lawrence.

Having multiple odd jobs on set won't have any impact.

"If I had just found out that the spellcasting was only performed in London, I would also have lost interest in filming. That's only human nature."

"Moreover, everyone can learn magic."

I noticed that most of the people on set didn't seem very energetic while working; I suspect they were all secretly practicing magic at night.

A few of them are mentally sharp; I suspect they possessed magic beforehand.

Could it be that one of our film crew members is the murderer?

I always felt that there were a few strange people on set.

He seemed particularly unsettled after Boris announced the news.

I could clearly sense that he was flustered. Herman was startled by his own guess.

Lawrence gestured for him to shut up, then whispered, "Are you crazy?"

"What if the killer is really right next to us, and your loud voice scares him? What if he then uses Avada Kedavra on both of us?"

The deaths that occurred in London have been widely discussed on Facebook.

An anonymous person claiming to be a police officer posted on Facebook detailing the specific circumstances of the victim's death.

Although the post was quickly locked and could no longer be seen, it was still widely circulated through screenshots.
