根据携程跟团游和自由行数据，春节期间，中国游客选择了7天以下行程的占比最高，达到了77%，大多游客会在假期时间内规划自己的旅程。而选择7天以上行程的游客也不少，占比达23%，拼假出行也成为了游客的重要方式。春节长假期间，收起行囊的中国人又将开启全球“买买买”的模式。公开数据显示，中国游客依然是全球规模最大、消费能力最强的出境游客源，2018年中国人出境游花了8000亿人民币。伦敦、巴黎位列出境游购物人均单笔花费最多城市的前几位，在其后分别是迪拜、冲绳、京都、大阪、名古屋、新加坡和福冈。 CB Insights日前发布AI 1002019报告，在这100家最有前景的AI初创公司名单上，有6家为中国公司：商汤、依图、第四范式、旷视、Momenta、地平线，另外，估值10亿美元独角兽等级的公司有11家，其中有5家来自中国。其中商汤以估值45亿美元排名第一，在融资金额排名部分，前两名由中国的商汤及旷视包办。 近日，有消息称，正在上映的科幻片《流浪地球》在拍摄过程中，因为万达中途撤资改投《情圣2》险些夭折，幸亏吴京追加投资6000万，并且零片酬出演，这才有了最后的成片。新京报记者联系到万达影业相关人员，对方表示此为假消息，“这两个项目离得好远，怎么可能混在一起？”问及万达之前有没有参与过这部影片的投资，对方回应：“应该大家都接触过，但是肯定没有‘撤资'这一说。” 近日华为方面表示，他们将在三月份，在巴黎举办华为P30系列新品发布会，届时将会发布华为P30和P30 Pro两款新机。目前华为P30的渲染图已经在网上曝光，新手机将搭载3D人脸识别技术，而最受瞩目的是该机的后置四摄像头。尽管P30系列在大小上并没有区别，不过华为P30 Pro将会采用大小屏版本，小版本将采用6.1英寸OLED显示屏，而大尺寸版本则采用了6.5英寸OLED屏幕。 经常有机会浏览外网的朋友们可能会发现，现在诸如Facebook或INS上能看到越来越多的中国品牌广告了。出人意料的是，中国成为Facebook最大的广告收入来源之一。根据市场研究公司Pivotal Research Group的统计数据，2018年Facebook从中国广告商那里获得的总收入估计达到50亿美元，约占其总销售额的10%。这足以让Facebook跻身中国七大上市互联网公司之列。 日前有消息指出，苹果高级副总裁安吉拉.阿伦茨即将于4月离职。安吉拉·阿伦茨在加入苹果之前曾是奢侈品巨头巴宝莉的首席执行官。因此，她进入苹果之后，依然被媒体冠之“穿Burberry的Apple‘女魔头'”称号，阿伦茨.安吉拉在奢侈品和时尚界时间有40年的，深谙奢侈品经营之道，而在5年前，苹果CEO库克花费巨额薪资将她请入苹果。当前iPhone销量下滑，股价大跌，但并非意味着，挖来安吉拉是苹果做出了错误抉择。 美国第四大移动运营商Sprint对美国第二大移动运营商AT&T提起诉讼，指控AT&T使用虚假的5G标签来误导消费者。Sprint所指的虚假5G标签，指的是AT&T在部分智能手机上显示的“5G E”字样。早在去年12月，AT&T就开始在部分安卓设备上显示“5G E”标识。后来，iOS设备也同样被打上了“5G E”标识。但事实上，AT&T所指的“5G E”只是当前4G LTE-A技术的改进版本，并非真正的5G技术。 8点1氪，今日言论。车和家CEO李想昨天在微博发文，回应几年前离开汽车之家的传闻。李想说：“很多人认为我是被赶出汽车之家的，并反复以此攻击我，这个污点我不背。2011年想离开汽车之家去创业，我和秦致说了想法。秦致说我们必须把汽车之家做到50亿美元以上才能让我走。我就留了下来，也一起做到了50亿美金以上的市值，在2015年6月离开了汽车之家，创办车和家。一年之后，平安收购汽车之家。”

Amazon Squeezes Instacart in Whole Foods Delivery Push. “There’s no longer room for Instacart at Whole Foods,” says Guru Hariharan, a former Amazon executive and CEO of Boomerang Commerce, which helps brand manufacturers sell to Amazon. “It’s only a matter of time before Instacart is edged out completely.” BlackBerry Limited, filed a lawsuit today against Facebook, alleging that the social network and its Whats App and Instagram subsidiaries infringe on BlackBerry messaging app patents. The core of BlackBerry’s complaint, which is a sprawling 117 pages, is that the company’s proprietary and patent-protected messaging product BlackBerry Messenger, known colloquially as BBM, was a cornerstone of modern mobile communications. YouTube may be Google's most potent weapon against Facebook. US consumers already spend more time watching YouTube videos than they spend on Facebook — and that lead is likely growing, Pivotal Research Group noted in a research reported Tuesday. And much more.

On this week's #MediaSnack we start with a consideration of the impact of Donald Trump's election this week as President-elect of the USA. Our friend Brian Wieser, senior analyst from Pivotal Research Group was the first off the block with his thoughts on how the global advertising industry could be affected. Brian posted his analyst perspectives at 3am NY time as the election result was just becoming clear - which means he'd devoted his evening to shaping thoughts, well done Brian. His main observations were based on the economic, political and regulatory uncertainty, but also covered the impact of potential immigration restrictions especially for multi-national media companies such as media agency networks and ad platforms such as Google and Facebook. He also acknowledged the important role that Twitter plays in these type of global events, although they perhaps weren’t able to commercialise it fully yet. We note the learnings that will surely come from Donald Trump’s unexpected triumph, notably with far less of a campaign war chest compared to the well-funded Hilary Clinton. A Bloomberg Politics report estimates Hilary’s funding exceeded $1bn whilst Trump managed a mere $512m - yet Trump dominated media coverage by a vast margin. Whether by accident or design Trump managed to leverage not just social media power (as Obama had done to huge success in 2012) but dominated mainstream media with his provocative narrative. Estimates are that Donald Trump generated over $2bn value of earned media in his race for POTUS. Continuing the Trump theme, we refer to a piece written by Dominic Mills for Mediatel which made a parallel between Donald Trump’s “blusterous” style (in an attempt to avoid addressing difficult subjects) and comments made by GroupM Global Chairman Irwin Gotlieb at a recent conference in New York. At the Video Everywhere Summit on 28th October Irwin Gotlieb was asked about the media transparency reporting published this year by the Association of National Advertisers (ANA). The ANA Media Transparency report highlighted a rift between advertiser and media agency and pushed trust between the two to new lows. But rather than try to bring parties together, which is what Irwin had called for back in 2015 and which Tom reported on from the ANA’s Advertising Financial Management Conference in Florida, he instead took the opportunity of his platform to further undermine the credibility of the ANA’s initiative. “I’m going to be really harsh,” Gotlieb said candidly. “The entire effort was a biz-dev effort. … The ANA allowed themselves to be part of a third-party’s business development.” Irwin is typically very careful with his words and would not have said such inflammatory things on a public stage in naivety. This was an intentional act designed to further undermine the credibility of a report designed for and funded by America’s largest advertisers, to benefit them. Dominic Mill’s comparison to Trump is not just timely, it's accurate. Brian Jacobs also wrote excellently about this on his recent Cog Blog, link below. Finally, we bring news that Toyota, the car manufacturer who you will remember was recently at the centre of a dramatic over-billing scandal by their Japanese agency Dentsu, have (in unrelated matters) shifted their entire $300m media and creative business away from Publicis Groups agencies and into WPP without a pitch. The comments from Toyota suggest a client with a clarity of vision to create a blueprint for agency resources, as we’ve spoken many times about on #MediaSnack previously.
