Ctrip has listed space travel tickets priced at 5.1 million yuan each, with 681 tickets already sold

Recently, Ctrip put the 2027 Virgin Galactic space travel tickets on the market at 5.1 million yuan per ticket. This is currently the most expensive space tourism product sold through public open channels in China, with 681 units already purchased.

Virgin Galactic's previous-generation VSSUnity spacecraft was retired after completing its last commercial flight in June 2024. At present, the company is pushing forward the new-generation Delta-class spacecraft.

Traders: The probability of the Federal Reserve raising interest rates at this week's meeting is as high as 92%

The market generally expects that the Federal Reserve will implement its first interest rate hike in more than three years at this week's monetary policy meeting. However, a number of economists still call on the central bank to postpone the interest rate hike, as they are concerned that there may be vulnerabilities hidden under the seemingly strong economy, and raising interest rates may be a wrong decision. Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody's, warned in an article published on a social media platform: "The probability that the Federal Reserve will make a serious policy mistake is disturbingly high and is still rising."

Traders believe that the Federal Reserve led by Kevin Wash has a 92% chance of raising interest rates at this week's meeting. In late August, Kevin Wash, Chair of the Federal Reserve, delivered a speech at the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium, suggesting that he was worried about the inflation trend. He said that he would not hesitate to take action if the inflation situation deteriorated. Ten days ago, investors thought the probability of an interest rate hike was only 50%. However, the rise in diesel prices, renewed tensions in the Middle East, and the higher-than-expected consumer inflation report released last Friday have all convinced traders and economists that Wash will fulfill his hawkish commitment and raise interest rates.

WeChat refutes rumors that its AI assistant Xiaowei "directly accesses chat records" and "peeks at users' privacy"

36Kr has learned that on September 15, Jiang Kecun, a WeChat employee, published a post responding to privacy-related issues concerning "WeChat Xiaowei": 1. The information Xiaowei can access never exceeds the scope of information that you are authorized to view. For example, some users worry that their deleted Moments posts might be accessed, and there is no need to worry as this will never happen; 2. Xiaowei provides relevant question recommendations based on the follow, browsing and interaction data from official accounts, WeChat Channels and other platforms, and this function also strictly follows the first principle mentioned above; 3. As for chat records, Xiaowei will only be temporarily activated when you actively send an "ask Xiaowei" request in the chat scenario. It will read the latest chat information locally on the WeChat client, and the original chat records will not be retained after analysis and summary, which follows the universal "use-once-and-discard" logic; 4. Some posts claiming that Xiaowei "directly reads all chat records" and "peeks at all private information" are completely untrue. It is introduced that WeChat Xiaowei is a native AI assistant developed by the WeChat team, which is currently in a small-scale beta test. Users can interact with Xiaowei via text or voice to query the weather, track express parcels and order food delivery. Besides, in scenarios including Moments, official accounts, chat sessions, and WeChat Channels, Xiaowei can also be called up at any time when necessary to summarize content and provide more relevant information.

The founder of Savage Man once claimed "it is us who brought down the industry price"

On September 12, Luo Yonghao posted on social media that he tried the wildly famous Savage Man ice cream at the airport, found it "very mediocre", and bluntly noted that "considering the price, it can even be described as bad-tasting". He later added: "It tastes far worse than Chicecream, I miss Chicecream." As of press time, the official side of Savage Man has not made a public response yet.

Previously, when facing the query of "high price", Cui Jian, the founder of Savage Man, said: "It is us who brought down the industry price." His calculation method is: in the traditional Gelato industry, one scoop usually weighs about 80 grams, with a selling price of 30 yuan to 40 yuan; one serving of Savage Man is about 130 grams, priced at 28 yuan. That is to say, people should not only look at how much a serving of ice cream costs, but also check the price per gram. (Consumer Reports)

Report: Samsung Electronics adjusts custom HBM base chip supply chain, likely to implement a "dual-track" strategy

According to sources from the industry, in the era of customized high-bandwidth memory, Samsung Electronics is expected to make major adjustments to its strategy for supplying base chips for its high-bandwidth memory (HBM). The company will no longer rely on its existing internal foundry for in-house production, but adopt a "dual-track process" strategy, which means it will also use base chips based on TSMC's processes. Starting from the mass production of HBM4 this year, both Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix have begun to use foundry processes instead of traditional DRAM processes to manufacture base wafers. Compared with DRAM processes, foundry processes have the advantage of integrating more functions into the base wafer, so as to improve performance and energy efficiency. (Sina Finance)

The golden age of superjumbo aircraft is counting down, Qantas will retire all Airbus A380s ahead of schedule

Qantas Group recently officially announced that it will gradually retire all 10 Airbus A380 passenger aircraft starting from 2028, about four years earlier than the original plan. Multiple media analyses and comments point out that this is not a simple fleet adjustment, but a collective farewell of the entire aviation industry to the "era of large aircraft". It is estimated that about 300 million Australian dollars (equivalent to approximately 1.43 billion RMB) in net cash flow can be saved during the 2028 to 2031 fiscal years. The A380 completed its maiden flight in 2007, and production was discontinued in 2021 due to high fuel consumption, high maintenance costs and insufficient passenger sources. The A380 may still be spotted in the next few years, but the golden age of superjumbo aircraft has already entered the countdown. (CCTV Finance)
