What if the world could 00:09:28.429 --> 00:09:31.250 break its dependence on China's rare earth materials? 00:09:32.129 --> 00:09:36.309 A promising solution comes from Conifer, a startup 00:09:36.309 --> 00:09:39.070 developing low -cost electric motors that use 00:09:39.070 --> 00:09:43.809 ordinary iron instead of rare earth. Led by experts 00:09:43.809 --> 00:09:47.190 from Lucid Motors and Apple, Conifer aims to 00:09:47.190 --> 00:09:49.830 create an affordable, efficient alternative for 00:09:49.830 --> 00:09:52.649 various applications, including scooters and 00:09:52.649 --> 00:09:56.610 electric vehicles. Their innovative axial flux 00:09:56.610 --> 00:09:59.470 motors are designed to deliver greater efficiency 00:09:59.470 --> 00:10:03.629 while being easier to manufacture.

Thunderbolts, the first Hollywood 00:10:24.289 --> 00:10:27.610 blockbuster to debut in China since former President 00:10:27.610 --> 00:10:30.470 Donald Trump's tariff war, has significantly 00:10:30.470 --> 00:10:34.889 underperformed. The film opened to just 18 million 00:10:34.889 --> 00:10:39.289 won, or about 1 .9 million pounds, falling short 00:10:39.289 --> 00:10:43.409 of local favorites like The Dumpling Queen. This 00:10:43.409 --> 00:10:45.789 marks the lowest opening for a Marvel film in 00:10:45.789 --> 00:10:49.909 China in over a decade.
