Shocked! The latest plot developments in The Legend of Mi Yue actually reflect the trends in the coal industry’s development

At the end of 2015, a masterpiece drama captivated countless viewers – that was The Legend of Mi Yue. As a reporter in the coal industry, I’m originally not very interested in such “fashionable” trends. After refusing for a long time, I finally watched The Legend of Mi Yue under the overwhelming pressure of 5 billion people in my homeland. At that sight, the editor was so shocked that his chin dropped to his lap! The plot developments in \"The Legend of Mi Yue\" reveal that Wei Yi, the rival heir, suggested to Mi Shu that Mi Yue be sent to the State of Yan as a hostage. As a result, the State of Qin announced the allocation of territories to its princes in the court, and sent Mi Yue and her son to Yan as hostages. Mi Yue, who once enjoyed great glory under the rule of Qin Feng, continued to lead a life of hardship and displacement, moving from Chu to Qin and then to Yan, where she encountered again Mi Yin, whose fate was marked by misfortune. It turned out that because Huang Xie ran away from his marriage, Mi Yin married the prime minister of the State of Yan, who was second only to the king, several years ago. With the person she hated finally in her grasp, Mi Yin grew malicious and sent people to set fire to the place where Mi Yue was stationed; this led to the death of Mi Yue’s loyal follower, Kui Gu, while Mi Yue managed to escape death… While I was extremely angry at Mi Yin, I suddenly remembered a joke: the life story of Mi Yue, China’s first empress dowager, actually bears a striking resemblance to that of the coal industry. Before 2000, China’s coal industry was just in its infancy, a process akin to the birth and growth of Mi Yue. Following a brief period of turmoil and adjustment in the middle and late part of 2008 (the low point for Mi in the State of Chu). After 2008, the coal industry reached its peak, with coal prices exceeding 1,000 yuan at their highest point. It was during this time that Mi Yue gained the favor of King Huiwen of Qin, marking the beginning of her first glorious period in life. However, since 2013, the coal market has taken a sharp turn downward and entered a period of decline. As the author mentioned earlier, during this time Mi Yue went to the State of Yan as a hostage under Mi Yin’s control, once again reaching a low point in her life. But just as the events in the story of Mi Yue unfolded later on, her ability to regain power in the State of Qin was made possible by the support of key figures such as Wei Ran, the Marquis of Rang, and Zhai Li, the King of Yi Qu. The coal industry chain also urgently needs positive news to boost its situation. Currently, the Internet+ trend is sweeping across China, and the coal industry also needs Internet+ to achieve industrial upgrading and transformation. The ability of Yimei.com to achieve a trading volume of 40 million tons during this tough period for the coal industry is a result of adopting the \"Internet+\" approach and continuously improving services across the entire coal industry chain. By providing the coal industry with efficient matching services, financing solutions, logistics support, warehousing management, and informational consulting, Yimei Network leverages the advantages of its platform resources to act as a support for those in the industry, just like Wei Ran and Zhai Li did for the many \"Mi Yue\"s. YiMeiWeb invites coal industry enterprises at all stages of the supply chain, as well as related industries, to work together to overcome difficulties and achieve steady development. To borrow Luo’s words, on the path to greatness, the scenery along the way is so awful that one feels like cursing, but those who work in the coal industry focus on the goal ahead.
