According to *The Beijing News*, eyewitnesses reported that the man was slashing at people indiscriminately, swinging his knife at anyone nearby.
This incident has thrust security-related stocks into the spotlight. On July 3, the Overseas Edition of *People's Daily* published a commentary noting that the 2001 issuance of the "Opinions on Further Strengthening the Comprehensive Management of Social Order" by the CPC Central Committee and the State Council marked a milestone in China's efforts to establish and refine its social security prevention and control system; a key feature of this initiative was the pivotal role assumed by "110" emergency command centers. Following the release of the "Opinions on Strengthening the Construction of the Social Security Prevention and Control System" in April 2015, the system entered a new phase of development. Earlier, *Red Weekly* reported that the security industry is poised to be the first sector to spearhead the industrialization of AI. Tianfeng Securities stated that this view is supported by factors ranging from algorithms to market demand. Regarding algorithms, the security industry offers concentrated application scenarios that facilitate technical optimization and breakthroughs; image recognition algorithms have already reached the standards required for security applications. In terms of demand, there is a strong drive to enhance efficiency in government security sectors, with security systems expanding across both temporal and spatial dimensions. Furthermore, sustained heavy investment by the government is a crucial factor; over half of the surveillance cameras nationwide have been upgraded to high-definition models, and the digitization and informatization of police operations are largely complete, laying the groundwork for the deployment of artificial intelligence technologies.
