Katsuki Bakugou not giving a fuck about you while he drives away from your place.
You'd yelled at him to leave, tears streaming down your face, angry that he had led you on only for him to act like he felt nothing for you.
He thought about how little he cared about your smile. How few shits he gave about all the times you'd run your fingers through his thick, unruly blond hair. He rolled his amber eyes at the idea that his heart especially ached on the nights and days you didn't spend together. The great explosion user gripped the steering wheel harder, the leather protesting and smoking underneath his sparking death grip.
You'd cried and told him that he was too scared to be loved. He had scoffed and told you he wasn't scared of shit.
But now he was scared shitless.
Scared that he might lose you forever.
He white-knuckled the steering wheel, strategically yanking it around while pulling on the hand brake before speeding off in the direction from whence he'd come.
He didn't give a single fuck that he scraped the front scoop of his expensive Audi R8 pulling back into your driveway.
His voice came through louder than the banging on your front door. "Oi! (Y/n)! Come open the damn door!"
You approached the door slowly, hugging yourself. If he forgot something, couldn't he at least have the sensitivity to wait another day to come back for it?
Not yet knowing that, no, it couldn't wait. He could never forget you.

Thicker Than Water by athena_crikey
Enjoyed the world building in this story. Loved the complexities of LZ and WY’s relationship. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Quotes:
Wei Ying is looking around the interior, clean from last weekend’s vacuum. “Nice car. I kind of pictured you driving a Porsche, or an Audi maybe. You know. Something sleek and sexy.”
Lan Zhan glances at him, and he grins. “I don’t know. You just give off that mysterious hot dude aura. Like James Bond, but you know. Hopefully less misogynistic.”
His car is, in fact, a Honda Fit. He had been considering a Leaf, but his battle to get his Strata to install charging stations in his building has been an uphill one.
“This has good mileage and a user-friendly eco-mode,” he says, fairly sure Wei Ying is not being serious but unable to reply in kind.
“Wow Lan Zhan, you really sell it. I’ll put Honda on my list for future me’s vehicle choices.”
————
Lan Zhan draws in a breath, slow, so deep his chest aches with it. He can feel his heart pressed tight within him, the feeling uncomfortable, distressing. But he can’t just keep sitting here and letting Wei Ying carry the conversation. The conversation he initiated, and now finds himself unable even to lead.
“You and I are very different,” he says, slowly. For once, Wei Ying doesn’t interject. “You are very different from anyone else in my life. I have been. Dazzled. By you. I thought that perhaps, despite our differences, despite my doubts, we could be… something.”
“And now you don’t?” asks Wei Ying, quietly. Lan Zhan turns to look at him. He’s sitting stiffly, his eyes wide, worried. For the first time he looks vulnerable – more than he did luring out a yao, more than he did walking into a house with a violent spectre.
“How could we, when I cannot even find the words to tell you what I want?”
Wei Ying leans forward, reaches out and hooks his long fingers over Lan Zhan’s. “I thought that was a pretty clear message just now. You’re right – we are different. Maybe too different – I don’t know. But I want to find out. I want – I want the way you look at me, like I’m the only person you’re thinking of.”
Lan Zhan swallows dryly, his throat tight. With fear, with desperation, but also for the first time with an ounce of hope. “You are. Since we first met, I have not been able to stop thinking about you. Each time I see you, it just makes me want to see you again.”
M, 68k
Summary:
The Lans were one of the founding families of the Vancouver Guild; part of their legacy is to maintain their place in it for the benefit of all. Cultivation is important, essential, serious.
In the distance, something squeaks.
A disaster, is Lan Zhan’s first impression as the bike squeals to a halt on the far side of Song Lan’s car. The man riding it – and he’s tall, and lanky, and sure-footed – hops off and locks it to the car’s back door. The back door of a police vehicle. He pulls his helmet off to reveal long, sweat-soaked hair with a shaggy undercut, bright grey eyes, and a smile that launches like an arrow straight through Lan Zhan’s chest.
No, he thinks, watching this trainwreck of a man shimmy between the narrow space dividing Song Lan’s back bumper and the next car’s hood like he’s doing some kind of dance step. Absolutely not.

Man I wish that they had more users in the Forza open world system, you get tossed into a bin of 20 users which is too few for you to really run into each other often. It's so fun having to interact with someone through two pre-selected text taunts, your horn, and driving. I was driving around in a mid-spec rally Renault 5 and I honked at an Audi S1 Quattro Rally who then tailed me for a good few minutes in their much faster and more agile car as I went full speed through some tricky bends.

Andrew (on Eduardo’s relationship with Mark in this film): ...So to me, Jesse had to be the person that I would never expect it for. And that was incredibly easy. As soon as I met him, I fell in love with him. I projected every single one of those things onto him, because he’s...you know, he’s so vulnerable as a human being and he’s so kind of open, and just wildly funny, and his way of seeing the world is so unique. And that was another aspect, I had to be in awe of him. I had to support him, support his genius, and to be protective of him and want him for myself. To, to be his boyfriend, really, in every way but a sexual way. So that was...It was all very very easy because I think Jesse is a genius. I think he is brilliantly inteligent, brilliantly funny, intuitive, sensitive. But yeah, he has this incredible innocence and naivety about him in terms of the people that he meets constantly and the way that he sees the world. So, you know, it was very very easy for me to wanna spend every moment of every day with him and steal ideas from him. I love being around incredibly creative and gifted people. I don't want to get too jealous. I usually want to just be in all of those people and wanna just feed of the energy that they create. So that was a piece of cake to fall in love with Jesse.

Unleashing Business Potential: Harnessing the Impact of Digital Marketing
In today's digital epoch, enterprises are continuously exploring innovative avenues to amplify their online footprint and engage with their target demographic effectively. Among the myriad strategies available, digital marketing stands out as a pivotal approach, offering an array of benefits that can redefine how businesses interact with their clientele. This in-depth exploration delves into the transformative capabilities of digital marketing, unveiling six key advantages that underscore its significance in today's dynamic commercial arena.
Introduction: The Digital Shift
The advent of the internet has precipitated a paradigm shift in business operations, ushering in an era of unparalleled digital connectivity and communication. With billions of users accessing the internet daily, businesses now have unprecedented opportunities to connect and engage with their target audience on a global scale. Digital marketing capitalizes on this potential by leveraging various online platforms to elevate brand visibility, stimulate customer engagement, and achieve marketing objectives with unrivaled precision.
1. Enhanced Reach and Visibility: Broadening Horizons
Digital marketing empowers businesses to extend their reach beyond conventional boundaries and enhance their visibility across diverse online avenues. Through strategic utilization of channels like search engines, social media, email marketing, and websites, enterprises can connect with a broader audience and exponentially boost brand exposure. Whether targeting local markets or global demographics, digital marketing equips businesses with the tools and strategies needed to expand reach and visibility effectively.
2. Precision Targeting: Tailoring Strategies with Precision
One of the standout advantages of digital marketing lies in its advanced targeting capabilities, enabling businesses to tailor their marketing endeavors with pinpoint accuracy. By leveraging sophisticated targeting options, enterprises can segment their audience based on demographics, interests, behaviors, and other parameters, ensuring that marketing messages resonate with the intended recipients. This precision targeting not only maximizes the relevance and efficacy of marketing campaigns but also minimizes resource wastage on irrelevant audiences.
3. Cost-Efficiency: Maximizing Returns on Investment
Compared to traditional marketing methodologies, digital marketing offers unparalleled cost-efficiency, enabling businesses to attain maximum ROI with minimal expenditure. Digital channels empower enterprises to allocate their marketing budget strategically, focusing resources on individuals most likely to express interest in their offerings. Moreover, digital campaigns can be fine-tuned in real-time, allowing businesses to adapt their strategies based on performance metrics and optimize spending for optimal outcomes.
4. Measurable Insights and Analytics: Data-Driven Strategies
A cornerstone advantage of digital marketing lies in its provision of comprehensive analytics and measurement tools, furnishing real-time insights into campaign performance. Through sophisticated analytics platforms, enterprises can monitor key performance indicators such as website traffic, engagement rates, conversion metrics, and ROI, facilitating data-driven decision-making. This heightened measurability empowers businesses to identify areas for enhancement and refine their campaigns iteratively for superior results.
5. Elevated Brand Engagement: Cultivating Meaningful Connections
Digital marketing affords businesses the opportunity to engage with their audience in a more interactive and personalized manner, nurturing meaningful relationships and fostering brand engagement. Across channels such as social media, blogs, email newsletters, and digital platforms, enterprises can initiate dialogues, address inquiries, and furnish valuable content tailored to their audience's interests. This heightened engagement not only fortifies customer relationships but also engenders brand loyalty and advocacy, fostering enduring success.
6. Enhanced Brand Awareness: Establishing Thought Leadership
By consistently delivering relevant and valuable content across various digital channels, businesses can augment their brand awareness and recognition among their target demographic. Through strategic content marketing, social media engagement, and SEO tactics, enterprises can position themselves as industry authorities and thought leaders, earning the trust and loyalty of their audience over time. This heightened brand awareness not only attracts new customers but also bolsters the brand's standing and credibility in the marketplace.
Conclusion: Embracing the Digital Frontier
In conclusion, digital marketing offers businesses a formidable arsenal to elevate their online presence, engage with their audience, and realize their marketing objectives in the digital age. With benefits spanning enhanced reach, precise targeting, cost-efficiency, measurable insights, heightened engagement, and augmented brand awareness, digital marketing has emerged as an indispensable strategy in today's fiercely competitive business landscape. By harnessing the potential of digital channels, enterprises can propel growth, cultivate customer relationships, and remain at the forefront of innovation in the ever-evolving digital frontier. Embrace the power of digital marketing and unlock boundless opportunities for business advancement in the digital era.

Durkduct Flexible Air Ducting Solution for the Automotive Industry
Durkee textile air ductwork has been applied in the automotive plant since 2008, from industry benchmarks, foreign-invested factories to domestic-owned factories, and from OEM to other automotive accessories producers. So far, all major engineering projects or benchmark enterprises in automobile manufacturing plants have chosen Durkee flexible fabric air dispersion system. Durkee has a group of famous users worldwide, such as Volkswagen, General Motors, Ford, Renault, Fiat, Tesla, Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, FAW, SAIC, GAC, Dongfeng, and Geely, etc.
By 2015, all automobile manufacturing industry projects only used Nanosox fabric ducts as the secondary air supply duct with unique properties, such as low space position line or spot air supply for energy-saving, environmental protection, easy installation, and oil resistance, etc. Since 2016, the insulated fabric air duct, which is the unique research and development of Durkee, has been fully promoted in the market.
It has been successfully applied as the primary air supply duct system for automobile manufacturing plants, including Jiangling, General Motors, Faurecia, FAW Toyota, BAIC, Ford, Dongfeng Honda, Geely, GAC Honda, and other projects.
Advantages of insulated fabric duct
Compared with commonly used traditional GI ducts, the advantages of the insulated fabric duct are more obvious:
Lightweight, faster installation
The insulated fabric ducting solution has a 100% factory prefabrication rate and on-site modular assembly, which is light in weight, requiring only slide bars or cable suspension, with zipper connection, greatly improving the quality of the project, shortening the construction period, and reducing the overall cost of the project.
Double insulation layer increases thermal insulation performance
The insulated fabric duct is composed of duct layer, an insulation layer, and an outer insulation layer, achieving a dual-layer insulation effect.
The integral composite insulation material has an infinite vapor resistance factor, which can effectively prevent water vapor penetration, maintain the initial thermal conductivity coefficient, and have a better insulation performance. The thermal resistance value is comprehensively improved. The Durkee fabric duct can effectively reduce cold and heat loss during the air transmission process.
High strength and pressure resistance performance
Different from the easy shearing and pressure deformation of rectangular metal ducts, the insulated fabric duct system adopts circular and elliptical shapes.
The insulated fabric duct can reasonably convert internal pressure into transverse tensile force on the duct wall, which can withstand 3000Pa-5000Pa or more pressure, far higher than the applicable range of traditional ducts below 2000Pa.
The insulated fabric duct system has been successfully applied in more and more primary air supply duct systems and return air duct systems. Durkee has become the leading supplier in the global fabric duct industry with a full range of professional solutions.

New Post has been published on https://www.vividracing.com/blog/139824-2/
In 2022, car enthusiasts all over the United States were anxiously awaiting the arrival of the Nissan Z. In the new Z, not 400Z, it seems Nissan answered all of our prayers. Equipped with a 3.0L VR30DDTT Twin Turbo V6 and a 6 speed FS6R31 manual transmission, the new Z34 (Kouki Z34) seemed to fill all the gaps Nissan left in the Zenki Z34 and R35 that left true drivers wanting more. With a power output at an even 400hp (298kw; 406ps) and 350 ftlbs (475 N-m 48 kg-m) of torque, the new Z34 was unlike any of its predecessors and a breath of fresh air in the middle of the ‘Sports Car Electrification Movement’. Nissan then broke some hearts, mine included, when they announced the 420hp, 384ftlb Z34 Nismo would be equipped with a rebadged Mercedes 9G-Tronic automatic transmission manufactured under Jatco as the JR913E and that there would be no manual option for the Nismo Z. Their reasoning: Even with more power, the automatic sport model would be faster in the ¼ mile than a manual Nismo, and they feared consumers would care.
Fast forward to release day, and the reasonably priced Nissan Z saw dealer markups of over $70,000 over MSRP on what could be Nissan’s final true sports car. Somehow, clout and fear of missing out beat common sense and they sold like hotcakes. So much so, that as of the writing of this article, the least expensive USED Nissan Z on the market is being offered at $7,000 above NEW MSRP. Now to bring it all into perspective, if you were an early buyer of a Nissan Z, you’re punching in Audi RS5 Coupe, BMW M4 Competition xDrive, and C8 Corvette territory price-wise, except you likely have cloth seats, less power, and are a good deal slower from 0-60 than your newly priced out competition… and the EFI scientist here at Vivid Racing just can’t let you go out like that.
Interested in this Nissan Z Tuning Box? Order Here
While we have options for your interior woes, and styling upgrades that make the car look the part of the markup, we were focused on two things and two things only: horsepower and torque… and drivability (I’m aware that’s three things). When this Two-tone Ikazuchi Yellow Tricoat / Super Black Kouki Z34 rolled into our dyno lab, we were impressed. It put down an underrated 405hp and 475ftlbs of torque through the automatic transmission, which was more than we all expected. Immediately wanting to unlock the ECU and start our flash process, the customer let us know the factory warranty was very important to him and that he would like to keep it. Luckily here at VR Tuned, we have developed a Warranty-safe tune with our VR Tuned Tuning Box. Basically, this system acts as a piggy back. It requires no cutting or splicing and does not modify the way any of the factory sensors work. Instead, through science and electrical engineering and magic, it provides safe, modified data to the factory ECU, allowing us modify boost, fuel and spark strategies that ultimately results in a 65hp increase over stock and 85 more ftlbs or torque through our VR Forged wheels.
To make it more user-friendly for the driver, we included optional Bluetooth control for both iOS and Android platforms, allowing the user to quickly change between 7 performance maps, or simply turn the tuning box off for emissions purposes from their phone. With 3 active drive modes (Race, Sport, and Eco) included, and German tuning box construction, we feel Vivid Racing has crafted the ultimate tuning solution for Nissan Z owners looking to retain their factory warranty. We also found the best exhaust system for making big power, and the best suspension system to keep it all under control, so there’s no need to take it one step at a time. The next stop for us and the Z should be a track day, so subscribe if you want to see more.
So whether you want to be the talk of the town at the next local cars and coffee, or you want to take a few hot laps around the track in extreme comfort, shoot me an email at [email protected] to get your Z right.

Thats Another Fine Mess
ELON CONTINUES TO SCREW THE POOCH
TCinLA
Returning to our originally scheduled programming, here’s as fine a mess as one can find.
Over the past 40 years, many people have come to believe that a person who is Good at Business - who becomes rich - has done so because of their massive intellect, managerial savvy, and good judgement.
During that time, there have been many examples that disprove such belief, but none so obvious as Donald Trump and Elon Muck. What unites the two is their seething resentment of a world that rewarded them money and influence, but still refuses to grant the respect they think is their due.
Trump has proven that resentment is perhaps the most powerful political force in the modern world. Muck is doing his bit too.
Over the past 12 years, Muck tweeted whatever came to mind, mostly without major negative consequences, even when he tweeted things like informing the world he had the financing to take Tesla private, which had a major effect on Tesla’s stock price and should have gotten him in trouble with the SEC
Now, ten days after overspending by at least $40 billion to purchase Twitter in a financial climate where the $44 billion offer was mostly his “fuck you” money, and then forced to purchase it in a financial climate that puts his entire house of cards at risk, he is finding that his every word matters. And pretty much every word he has spouted in those ten days has made his situation worse by factors of billions of dollars.
Muck is on the hook for $13 billion that is secured by his Tesla stock. If he is forced to come up with the money, selling that much stock will lead to a fire sale that could see him lose upwards of $100 billion of the $200 billion in “assets” that constitute his claim to be the world’s richest man.
Twitter is rapidly becoming a theater of the absurd, worthy of an Ionesco drama, as William D. Cohan put it. Here’s Elon’s dilemma, and it’s a financial doozy: his $13 billion has an interest rate capped at an annual rate of 7.5 percent. So Twitter has to pay nearly $1 billion in interest to its banks each year. That’s basically the same EBITDA Twitter had in 2021. However that’s probably no longer an attainable level of EBITDA in 2022, based on Elon’s Friday tweet alone.
It’s hard to see how Elon can go from losing $1.5 billion a year, if true, to generating the cash flow he needs to keep his creditors off his back, even after firing half the company, and especially if users and advertisers continue to leave. It’s highly unlikely a guy like Larry Ellison will pony up more money to flush after the first billion.
And the possibility of that happening is becoming more and more likely - literally from one tweet to the next.
Tweeting an offensive conspiratorial fantasy to Hillary Clinton about the assault on Paul Pelosi had immediate consequences. Advertisers fled because of that tweet and have continued to do so with each following brainfart. The Pelosi tweet may be the most expensive in history, since so far it has cost Twitter billions in advertising revenue as companies like General Mills, Audi, Pfizer, General Motors and other big institutional advertisiters pulled their marketing because they do not want their brands even remotely associated with anything scandalous.
Muck’s Saturday threat to “name and shame” advertisers for doing what advertisers are expected to do merely demonstrates further his complete incompetence as a manager.
At this point, it might be useful to point out that Elon Muck DID NOT do the following:
He DID NOT invent Paypal. He DID NOT start Tesla. He DID NOT start Space-X.
He is the scion of an Afrikaner family that made their millions in the “blood emerald” and “blood ruby” business in Rhodesia, a company that is still known for its involvement in purchasing “blood” gemstones, also known as “conflict gems,” whose legitimate provenance cannot be proved. They consort with warlords and their profit comes from the deaths of exploited Africans in Africa’s civil wars and general instability of the past 40 years.
He came here with several million dollars and proceeded to hire fellow students at Stanford who actually knew what they were doing to create Paypal, which he did in alliance with now-certified pro-Nazi anti-democrat Peter Thiel.
He then took the money made from that and bought his way into both Tesla and Space-X much the way he bought himself into Twitter, though both of those companies actually made things. Tesla has yet to actually be profitable making his tinny toys, since it depends for the majority of its income on government subsidies for electric car sales. He bought his way in, got rid of the actual people who started the company, and named himself “founder.”
Tesla, in fact, is now falling in sales because the real car companies are eating his lunch, creating EVs that actually work, that don’t need to hide a non-disparagement agreement among all the papers a buyer signs. Companies that act like car companies, not Silly Con Vally tech companies.
Owners are upset when all cars have the same glitch, and over extended periods of time the company doesn’t fix them. The shine is off these tinny toys. Nondisparagement agreements or not, word is getting around.
Musk is not an inventor. He is not “chief engineer” at Space-X.
He is the man behind the curtain Dorothy was told to pay no attention to.
Muck is so bad at what he does that when he had a conference call with ad executives last week to quell their concerns over his tweets and the 500% increase in appearance of the “n-word” on Twitter since he took control, that many of the people on the call literally paused the ads and shifted the accounts elsewhere DURING THE CALL because of the uncertainty his statements were adding to. When he fired half the company over the past weekend, he managed to unwittingly fire Twitter’s chief customer officer, the one responsible for maintaining crucial brand and agency relationships.
The advertisers don’t need Twitter. Compared to the other social media behemoths like TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, Twitter barely registers.
When it became known last Thursday that he was going to fire half the employees, he did via an email and didn’t even sign his name to it, an act of cowardice one can list high on “character tells” about him. Many found out about their termination when their work accounts stopped functioning. The cuts hit or totally destroyed major parts of the trust-and-safety, policy, machine-learning, social-good, accessibility, communications, ethical-AI, data-science, and research teams. Those remaining were told to work 80-hour weeks to build products for Musk lest they too be terminated and to come up with ideas to “tantalize” Muck. Today, Bloomberg reported that some of the employees had skills necessary to build products Musk actually wants to launch and were terminated by mistake, and the company is trying to lure them back.
It’s actually amazing there are any employees left.And Muck continues digging the hole deeper. This morning, to the dismay of lost all the brand advertisers left - all of whom strive to be apolitical - Muck endorsed the Republican slate of candidates for tomorrow’s midterm elections to his 114-million-followers. The blowout of advertisers after the Pelosi tweet is nothing compared to what is going on as you read this.Every decision he has made: getting rid of content management, firing half the employees, failing to engage brain before hitting “send” on each tweet, has cost him billions of dollars. Every decision he’s made has lost him money.
Muck is holding a master class in how not to run an effective organization. He is surrounded with a group of yes-men advisers, many of whom also lack specific expertise.Even if he does manage to salvage things, what we are seeing is the opposite of a business mastermind at work. Muck is not leading Twitter with careful vision; he’s bumbling his way through a job he’s unqualified for.The history of capitalism is that you can be very successful and also be a very terrible human being.
In this sense, Musk is an excellent teacher. The great irony is that his achievements with Space-X and even Tsla might have obliterated the perception that he’s a spoiled, rich doofus. Buying Twitter and telling people to vote Republican has pretty much obliterated that possibility.That one tweet will likely cost him many Tesla sales, since it’s mostly the vehicle of choice of rich lefties.The Silly Con Valley Bros need to be reined in. What they are creating is not “progress.” Hero-worshiping the mega-rich is the road to ruin, as we can see around us every day.The lesson we have learned with Muck and Twitter is an old one: it’s better to be thought a fool than to open one’s mouth and prove it beyond all doubt.Yesterday began the second workweek of Musk’s tenure. He celebrated it in the traditional way, by tweeting an image of a Nazi soldier in a meme about birds.

What fresh hell will tomorrow bring? Bet on more chaos.

Let's appreciate some cases of Xinyiguang's LED floor screen
Stay at home, go shopping, and walk on the road. Our common floor materials include carpet, wood plank, marble, cement road, asphalt and other types, but no matter how fancy, pattern, and color change, they all have a common feature-slightly "dull". Some people say that it is fun and convenient, just change it frequently. It sounds very embarrassing, you can change the carpet every day, but you can't pry the floor every day.
Have you heard of Xinyiguang LED floor tile screen? Through the LED display, the visual interactive experience is immersive, giving people: the indoor floor tile screen with the experience of "sitting at home, the world is under the feet"; stepping and jumping, and the intelligent interaction of playing and dancing floor tile screen; waterproof and dustproof, super heavy outdoor floor tile screen. It can be tiled on the ground and displayed slowly, or it can be used to create a dreamy and flashing stair screen that climbs up the steps.
Onlooker No. 1: It sounds amazing, do floor tile screens with so many functions really exist?
Onlooker No. 2: Need to be powered on? Is it safe?
Onlooker No. 3: Will it be crushed?
Yes, yes, all of the above! Chinese people don’t lie to Chinese people. The editor of Digital Audio-Video Engineering Network couldn’t stand everyone’s urging, and decided to go to Xinyiguang with everyone to learn about it. It was an eye-opener. Experience the fun of "seeing is owning".

They are made of raw materials with low moisture absorption coefficient. The front and back of the body can reach the waterproof level of IP45.
3. Is it reliable?
The anti-slip and wear-resistant LED intelligent interactive floor tile screen mask is made of imported PC materials, which has high wear resistance and flexibility, and good high and low temperature resistance. And designed according to the principle of mechanics, Xinyiguang mask has good anti-slip and load-bearing functions.
4. Is it hard?
Super load-bearing Each component of Yiguang LED intelligent interactive floor tile screen, according to different mechanical designs, has an ultimate load-bearing capacity of up to 3 tons per square meter.
Onlookers 1, 2, and 3: Awesome! Is that brand okay?
Editor: Founded in 2012, Xinyiguang is a professional supplier of global application products and solutions. Xinyiguang has a modern manufacturing plant of 8,000 square meters. The core R&D team has more than 20 years of experience in professional research and development. The company has obtained a number of valid patent certificates and a number of test reports to provide users with high-quality products and services. And in December 2021, it was awarded the "2021 Famous Brand of LED Floor Tile Screen" by Digital Audio Video Engineering Network. The trophy is still warming up, what do you think?
Onlooker No. 1: Wow, it's so powerful, I will arrange a basketball court with LED floor tiles for the village immediately, the cubs in our village must not lose to the next village! Low-key arrangement...
Onlooker No. 2: I heard it a long time ago! We have 4 in our village, 1 each in the east, west, north, and south.
Onlooker No. 3: Tsk tsk tsk, you guys are so naive. I want to arrange a big floor tile screen for the entrance of my house, so that everyone will envy my house!
The indoor LED floor tile screens, intelligent interactive floor tile screens, and outdoor LED floor tile screens developed and produced by Xinyiguang have various installation styles of floor tile screens and stair screens. The product cabinets are made of hard materials such as die-casting aluminum, aluminum plates, and iron. Increase the strength of the box, strong and wear-resistant. It's really good, the boss remembers to stock up for the New Year, because it will be a big hit in 2022!
