“To be able to make better decisions today.”

为什么我们要预测未来？

只为今天做出更好的决定。

HOW THE FUTURE LOOKS LIKE?

未来会怎样？

Future is a satire of acceptance and the image we want to portrait and project to others.

（未来是对接受和我们想要描绘和投射给别人的形象的讽刺。）

“Social Media Rating system”is the new standard of what is good and decent.

This system works as digital police, because it punishes each behavior that is not accepted from the crowd.We compare on social media; Stock exchange are influenced by public opinion; We can buy a house or a car without deposit if we have a high rating.

（ “社交媒体评分系统”是关于良好和体面的新标准。该系统可作为数字化警察使用，因为它惩罚不接受的所有行为。我们在社交媒体中进行比较；证券交易受舆论影响；如果我们的评级较高，可以在不用存款的情况下购买房子或车子。）

And you can see even Ali baba already implemented this system (Example: If you are a father and you buy diapers online on Alibaba, they classify you as a responsible parent and reward you with bonuses, benefits and discounts on your next purchase). You can let your kid learn in a better school if you have higher score. So, it`s not just a prediction, it`s already happening.

（在阿里巴巴已经实施了这一系统，举个例子，如果您作为父亲在他们的网站上购买尿布，在下次购买时会获得奖金，福利和折扣，由于您是负责任的父母。如果您的分数更高，可以让您的孩子在更好的学校学习。因此，这不仅是预测，而且已发生。）

People live their lives trying to please everyone, lost in this world where they think their value is equivalent to their social media points. We are trying to please everyone, because the consequences are unpleasant. Everyone are a little bit heighten and false, because everyone are terrified of being marked down.It`s basically the world we live in.

（人们尽力取悦每个人而生活，在这个他们认为自身价值等同于社交媒体观点的世界里迷失了。我们试图取悦所有人，尽管结果是不愉快的。每个人都有些虚伪，因为每个人都害怕被扣分。这也基本是我们所生活的世界。）

Attention is the new currency。

注意力是新货币

SOCIAL RATING SYSTEM

社交评分系统

Social Rating Influencethe quality of life we have andcompanies will use personal data to influence buying decision. Exhausted of political instability, resistant bacteria (Candida) and crazy weather, people find their shelter in their home. They will spend more time with others with same interests (PLUs - People like us). Running become badge for the rich people. Gym clubs becoming the new single bars. Nutrition is the main topic in conversations (we prefer food that is “Sugar Free” and “Additive Free”). Cannabis is becoming increasingly popular. Getting tired of the virtualworld, people escape inoff-line . In recent years, focus will be onhandmade, natural or real material.

（社会评价如何影响我们的生活质量，公司会用个人数据来影响购物决策。厌倦了政治动荡、耐药细菌（念珠菌）和恶劣的天气，人们在自己的家里找到了栖身之所。他们会花费更多的时间和志同道合的人聚在一起（PLUs-像我们这样的人）。跑步成为富人的徽章。健身俱乐部成为新的单身酒吧。营养成为谈话中的重要话题，我们更喜欢无糖和无添加剂的食物。大麻越来越受欢迎。人们厌倦了虚拟世界，在线下逃离。近几年来，重点将集中在手工制作、天然、或真实材料上。）

(running from compressed life into relaxed and slow living)

SLOW UTOPIA

慢乌托邦

The new middle class is in anxiety and hopes to run away from compressed life.

（新中产阶级正处于焦虑之中，并希望摆脱压缩的生活。）

Demotivation and Buddhism become opium for spiritual relief.

（新中产阶级正处于焦虑之中，并希望摆脱压缩的生活。）

Home is a living testament of your life.In future, we will expose souvenirs from our grandpas, frame our children artwork and keep the stains of painting on the floor and stains from meaningful parties. Memories have deep emotional value.

（家是您生活的有力证明。在未来，我们保留祖父的纪念品、构筑孩子们的艺术品，保留他们在地板上画的污渍，记忆具有最深的情感价值。）

Products should look like it`s “Not out of Catalogue”.Time and space travel mix textures, styles, trends and colours.“Unmaking” semi-finished designis the new normal- reverse process of making, like getting back in stone age.Symmetrical is out, and new product designs arebreaking the logic. Micro Homes become most popular trend of the future, because of the high price of the apartments and oversaturated concentration in big cities.

（产品应看起来像“不在目录中”。时空旅行混合了纹理、样式、趋势和颜色。“拆除/未制成”半成品设计是新常态-反向制造。就像回到石器时代。对称不再流行，新产品设计打破了逻辑，微型住宅由于公寓价格高及大城市人口过多成为未来最受欢迎的趋势。）

Image:Seamless blending of differences.

Like mixing fur with silk material, or cooking “Healthy Fast Food”

（图片：差异的无缝混合。 

就像用丝绸材料混合毛皮，或者烹饪"健康快餐"）

People get tired of constant struggle with hectic life and find their escape in “giving up “when things get tough. We started to appreciatefree time more than possessingexpensive products. People will beless material.Shared economy will invade with genericsame looking products, and we will see “Floating products” lot more often.Countryside lifestyle is a “new dream” of urban people.

（人们厌倦了在忙碌的生活中不断挣扎，当事情变得艰难时，他们在“放弃”中找到了逃脱之路。我们开始珍视空闲时间，而不是拥有昂贵的产品。人们的物质化需求越来越少。共享经济将入侵具有相同外观的通用产品，并且我们将更多地看到“漂浮产品（如漂浮馆）”。乡村生活是城市人的“新梦想”。）

BIOPHILIA

绿色设计

Biophilia is popular as architecture of life. This design concept follows theshape of nature. solves complex urban problems with new design solutions. Example: Bad quality of air in offices, we solve with interior of oxygen purifying plants. You can see everything is more oval, not that edgy, in amorph shape. We avoid sharp geometrical shapes.

（绿色设计建筑流行。这种设计理念遵循自然的形状，以新的设计解决方式解决复杂的城市难题。例如：办公室里空气质量差，我们用氧气净化装置内部的方式解决。你会看到一切都呈椭圆形，呈平摊状，而不是那种棱角分明的。我们避免尖锐的几何形状。）

Image:Humanity is getting back to natural way of living.

Essential indoor materials will be wood, stone, plants, fire, water.

（图片：人类正在恢复自然的生活方式。

室内必不可少的材料将是木头，石头，植物，火，水。）

You can see this public toilet placed as in a middle of a jungle, it`s actually a gas station in the center for the city. We strive for breathable, healthy cities. People have inverse process of evolution, we are getting back to our natural place of living.

（你可以看到这个公共厕所放置在在丛林中，实际上它是一个位于城市中心的加油站。我们努力打造可呼吸的、健康的城市。人的进化过程是逆向的，我们正在回到自然的生活环境。）

People get back to habitat.

 （人们回到栖息地。）

HAPTIC COMMUNICATION

触觉交流

Last developments in “touch” and “haptic” tech, channel new comforting products who simulate a hug (or a sound of heartbeat).Technology is moving away from screens intro the products. “TOUCH ME” surfaces who evokes you to touch them, are becoming increasingly popular. In short, we trigger feelings (blend Oxytocin & Dopamine and you get a social brain cocktail for making decisions without thinking).

“触摸”和“触觉”技术的最新发展为模拟拥抱（或心跳声）的新型舒适产品提供了渠道。科技正逐渐从屏幕转向产品介绍。唤起您触摸的“ TOUCH ME”表面越来越受欢迎。简而言之，我们会触发感觉（将催产素和多巴胺混合，您会得到社交大脑的帮助，而无需思考就可以做出决定）。

Social Engineering is a newfound skill that treats the Human elementand involves understanding how human make decisions, what motivates them, and how to provoke making fast buying decisions without thinking.

（社会工程学是一种新发现的技能，它处理人的因素，包括理解人类如何做出决策，如何激励他们以及如何激发人们做出快速购买的决策而无需思考。）

Aldo we are so connected, we have never been more disconnected between each other.

（我们紧密地联系在一起，我们之间从未像现在这样相互断开。

Because people are spending more time on their devices and they are not making friends.

Companies should utilizethe trend of social isolation, to offeroffline product and help people disconnect.

（因为人们在设备上花费了更多时间，却没有结交朋友。公司应利用社交隔离的趋势，提供离线产品并帮助人们断开连接。）

We are getting into Lifestyle Brand Era. Brands prosper if they build massive sub-culture thattech people ”How to behave”. Perfect example is “MUJIspecies concept” which teach young people how to dress.Biometric identification (fingerprint, voice, face and iris recognition) is a hit. In the same timeHistoricalfigures are used asKOL, example: Chinese emperor who sells lipsticks gain annual sales of 1 bilion RMB.

（我们正在进入生活方式品牌化时代。如果能建立起大量的让人们学会“如何行事”的亚文化，品牌就会繁荣。有一个完美的例子是“无印良品物种概念”，它教会年轻人如何着装。生物特征识别（指纹、语音、面部和虹膜识别）非常受欢迎。同时，历史人物也被用作KOL，比如为口红代言的古代皇帝（乾隆）年销售额达到10亿RMB。「此处指：故宫文创」

Marketing in future is equivalent to “Sales in real time”. There is a new direction in marketing industry called “Micro moments”, and means to reach the costumer in the moment he needs the product. Example: (1) How to fix this; (2) Time for New one; (3) New Beginnings…

Are you there?

（未来的营销等同于 “实时营销”。市场营销行业有一个新的方向，叫做“微时刻”，意味着在客户需要产品时就可以联系到客户。示例：（1）如何解决此问题；（2）新的时间；（3）新起点…

你在那里吗？）

• 您的人际关系质量

• 您的受欢迎程度

• 教育

“Constant sensationalism makes people sceptical about everything”. We tend to trust things we have a history with. With tech moving as fast as it is, old things are quickly getting replaced by shinier, newer, often more complex things. It`s not that easy to position on the market if you don`t have the right strategy.

（“不断的耸人听闻使人们对一切持怀疑态度”。我们倾向于相信我们拥有悠久历史的事物。随着科技的飞速发展，旧事物正迅速被更新，被更复杂的事物所取代。如果您没有正确的策略，那么在市场上定位并不容易。）
