In less than a month, we will say goodbye to 2023. In the first half of this year, people almost rushed out of the door, eager to experience the long-lost, immediate, face-to-face feeling. This heat has been injected into the performance and tourism markets, reshaping the consumption landscape. The world has re-flowed, but it has also brought war, economic losses and a decline in confidence. If there are more opportunities for people to communicate with each other, then as a group, we have also faced many unexpected changes - new face, puzzled face, happy face, serious face, which is also the structure of the cover planning of this issue of the magazine. Whether it's the climate, the global situation, the business world, or even life itself, the world has presented us with more diverse and complex facets this year. 
In July 2023, the Anthropocene Working Group proposed the start of a new geological epoch: the Anthropocene. If this resolution is passed next year, it will mean that human behavior has completely changed the shape of the planet, and humanity will face the consequences of its actions.
In any case, in 2023, our species has left an indelible mark on the planet.
As a member of the human race, what do you think of this year?What expression will you choose to use to face this year?

2023，fact to face
OpenAI showed the shiniest, and arguably the most incredible, New Face of the year. After the liberalization, liquidity was restored instantly, and we really felt the happy face, but the overall economy ** did not come as promised, and the break between expectations and reality was the puzzled face that the economics community collided with head-on. From the long-lost face to face, to directly facing all kinds of unspeakable and unknowable situations. What will this year look like in our memory?
