Namibox and Hisense Form Strategic Collaboration to Launch the 'Parent-Child Learning Big Screen,' Creating a New Ecosystem of 'Educational Hardware + Emotional Economy'
Expanding the Learning Space: From 'One-Way Output' to 'Emotional Symbiosis'
According to the 'Chinese Family Education Consumption White Paper' issued by the Ministry of Education, 82.6% of the Chinese families are currently facing 'educational device anxiety.' Traditional learning devices often rely on a 'question bank + video course' model, while standard tablets pose the risk of addiction among children. To address these challenges, Namibox and Hisense have jointly developed the 27-inch movable 'Parent-Child Learning Big Screen.' This device goes beyond combining hardware with learning software; it reimagines the family education ecosystem through three key innovations, creating a seamless blend of 'education + emotion.'
Space Extension: Equipped with a retractable stand and omnidirectional wheels, the 27-inch big screen easily adapts to a variety of home learning scenarios. Whether children are attending online classes in the living room, engaging in parent-child fitness routines, learning math with weighing tools in the kitchen, or enjoying bilingual reading in the bedroom, this versatile device supports it all. By catering to modern family dynamics, where the living room often doubles as a study area, the screen transforms traditional learning hardware from a single-use device into a multi-functional, interactive tool that fosters immersive family learning experiences.
Role Reconstruction: The device transforms parents' roles from 'overseers' to 'teammates.' Its movable, multifunctional design enables transitions between learning mode and family mode, allowing parents and children to learn, read, exercise, and play together. This redefinition of family space not only enhances the functionality of the home but also deepens emotional connections, positioning the learning screen as a pivotal 'third anchor' in the household, alongside the stove and television.
Content Upgrade: Namibox leverages cutting-edge AI, AR, and digital human technologies to develop an advanced digital educational content engine. This engine delivers a rich array of K9 educational materials, including synchronized learning content infused with AI and digital human elements. These innovations breathe new life into traditional digital textbooks, online courses, and exercises, creating a dynamic, closed -loop system of learning, practicing, and testing. The intelligent and interactive design significantly boosts students' engagement, interest, and autonomy.
Technological Excellence: Hardware Innovation Meets Eye Protection
The 'Parent-Child Learning Big Screen' incorporates Hisense's flagship TV picture quality technology, setting a new benchmark for display quality in educational devices. Its IPS paper-like eye-protection screen, combined with Hisense's 7-layer eye-protection process certified by TÜV Rheinland, ensures optimal visual comfort and health for users.
A standout feature of the device is its dual-system intelligent switching design. In 'Learning Mode,' entertainment apps are automatically blocked, while 'Family Mode' unlocks entertainment and audio-visual functionalities. This concept of 'education not opposing human nature, entertainment not losing control' meets the core demands of parents who want effective learning tools without sacrificing leisure and family bonding.
A Game-Changer in the Billion-Dollar Smart Educational Hardware Market
According to IDC, the Chinese smart educational hardware market is projected to exceed RMB100 billion by 2024, despite a product homogenization rate as high as 76%. The 'catfish effect' brought by this cross-industry collaboration between Namibox and Hisense has drawn significant industry attention. The Company believes that the 'Parent-Child Learning Big Screen' could catalyze a 'living room education economy,' paving the way for future business opportunities such as family education consulting and personalized tutoring, powered by behavior data collected through parent-child collaboration. This strategic partnership represents more than just a complementary alignment of strengths; it is a bold exploration of the future ecosystem for smart hardware. By combining technological innovation with educational depth, Namibox and Hisense are unlocking new possibilities for the smart educational hardware industry.

Shifting to Asia, Rubio meets Quad and talks minerals
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio met Tuesday with counterparts from Australia, India and Japan, shifting focus to Asia after a tenure so far marked by crises elsewhere and domestic priorities. Rubio had welcomed the foreign ministers of the so-called Quad on January 21 in his first meeting after President Donald Trump's inauguration, seen as a sign that the new administration would prioritize engagement with like-minded countries to counter China. Since then, much of Rubio's attention has been on the Middle East, with the United States bombing Iranian nuclear sites in support of Israel; on Ukraine, as Trump unsuccessfully seeks a ceasefire in Russia's invasion, and on boosting Trump's domestic priorities such as mass deportations of migrants. Welcoming the three foreign ministers, Rubio did not directly mention military concerns over China but said he sought cooperation among business and on raw materials -- also key goals for the Trump administration. Rubio told them he was focused on "diversifying the global supply chain of critical minerals -- not just access to the raw material, but also access to the ability to process and refine it to usable materials." "It's critical for all technologies and for all industries across the board," Rubio said, voicing hope for "real progress" on the issue within the Quad. China holds major reserves of several key minerals including the vast majority of the world's graphite, which is crucial for electric vehicles. Beijing has sought to impose restrictions as leverage, as the United States in turn curbs its access to semiconductors and as Trump wields the threat of punishing tariffs on both friends and foes. - 'Free and open' - Trump is expected to travel to India later this year for a summit of the Quad. The four-way partnership was first conceived by late Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe, who saw an alliance of democracies around China -- which has repeatedly alleged that the Quad is a way to contain it. Trump has long branded China as the top US adversary, but since returning to office has also saluted his relationship with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Both the Indian and Japanese foreign ministers said that they wanted the Quad to focus on a "free and open Indo-Pacific" -- a phrasing that is a veiled allusion to opposing Chinese dominance in Asia. "We're all committed to ensure a free and open Indo-Pacific," Indian Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar said. "It is essential that nations of the Indo-Pacific have the freedom of choice, so essential to make right decisions on development and security," he said. Jaishankar also made clear that India would raise its strikes last month against Pakistan in response to a major attack on mostly Hindu civilians in Indian-administered Kashmir. "India has every right to defend its people against terrorism, and we will exercise that right. We expect our Quad partners to understand and appreciate that," he said. Despite shared concerns on China, the Quad members have differed on other hotspots. India has maintained a historic relationship with Russia despite the invasion of Ukraine. Both India and Japan also have historically warm relationships with Iran, whose nuclear sites the United States bombed in June in support of an Israeli campaign. sct/st

Tesla Sank Today -- Is the Stock a Buy Right Now?
Tesla stock fell Tuesday in conjunction with multiple bearish catalysts. Elon Musk's feud with Trump was a factor in the sell-off, but concerns about vehicle shipments could have been a bigger factor. Tesla has plenty of long-term growth opportunities, but its near-term outlook seems challenging. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) stock got hit with a substantial valuation pullback in Tuesday's trading. The electric vehicle (EV) leader's share price ended the daily session down 5%. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) fell 0.1%, and the Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) fell 0.8%. News involving Tesla played a significant role in pushing the broader market lower in Tuesday's trading. After hitting record highs in Monday's session, some investors were likely already poised to take profits -- and another ramp-up in the feud between Elon Musk and President Trump prompted sell-offs for Tesla that had ripple effects for other tech stocks. Adding another bearish catalyst, the U.S. Senate passed President Trump's tax and budget bill without a provision that would have limited the ability of states to craft their own artificial intelligence (AI) regulations. With today's pullback, Tesla stock is now down 13% over the last month and roughly 26% across 2025's trading. While Tesla's robotaxi service has now launched in Austin, Texas, it could take a while for the business to scale substantially. Meanwhile, the core auto business faces the risk of sustained headwinds in the near term. Worsening relations between Trump and Musk could result in a less favorable growth backdrop for Tesla, but some valuation fundamentals look risky even if the tensions prove to be short-lived. Trading at roughly 10 times this year's expected sales and 161 times expected earnings, the company's valuation has some big wins already priced in, even as vehicle unit sales are seeing significant declines. Tesla has a strong track record and the foundations for ramping up its robotaxi and autonomous driving units, but a weaker sales outlook for its core EV business makes shares a risky play right now.
