Roewe finally showed its trump card. Let’s see how the old driver chooses.

When middle-aged people choose a car, they will care about whether a model is mature enough, its appearance should be atmospheric enough, its interior should be exquisite enough, and it should be comfortable enough to drive, whether it is for business or home. If you don’t consider the cost of using the car later when you buy a car, you will regret it afterwards. For example, today’s performance in this respect is worth talking about. Let’s look down with Xiaobian.

First of all, from the appearance, the front face of Roewe RX9 looks very simple and looks sharp. Combined with fashionable and simple headlights, the visual effect coincides with the positioning of the whole vehicle. The car is equipped with LED daytime running lights, front fog lights, automatic opening and closing, adaptive far and near light, delayed closing and so on. Come to the side of the car, the car body size is 4983MM*1967MM*1786MM, the car uses simple lines, the car side gives a very simple feeling, with large-sized thick-walled tires, it looks full of movement. In the rear part, the overall shape of the rear echoes the front of the car, and the taillight style is more fashionable. Together with the unique exhaust pipe, it creates a good gas field.

Sitting in the car, Roewe RX9 interior looks more dynamic and the visual effect is very good. The car looks very good outside the steering wheel, equipped with the functions of manual steering wheel up and down+front and rear adjustment, etc., and feels good. Take a look at the central control, and with the 12.3-inch touch-sensitive LCD central control screen, the interior design is quite layered, and the details are still in place. Finally, let’s look at the dashboard and seats. The dashboard design is remarkable, and the trendy design elements make people remember it at a glance. The car uses leather seats, which are wide and thick, and the overall ride feels soft and comfortable.

Roewe RX9 is matched with an automatic manual transmission (AT) gearbox, with a maximum power of 178KW and a maximum torque of 392N.m, with good power performance.

Equipped with car networking, driving mode selection, remote control key, rear wiper, interior atmosphere light and other configurations, it has rich functions and greatly improves its convenience of use.

The moderate size of the car is a very suitable choice for many families, and the internal space is enough for daily use in families. If you think so, today’s car is still worth recommending.

Prospect of Film Market in March: Can Kung fu panda 4 Keep China Audience for Hollywood?

 Author: film and television weather vane

March is the traditional off-season of China’s mainland film market. Major domestic film companies will not release head films during this period, and the market space left is often filled by imported blockbusters. The same is true this year. There will be many Hollywood blockbusters such as Godzilla vs. king kong 2: The Rise of the Empire and Dune 2 released by Kung fu panda 4 this month.

Last year, the performance of Hollywood blockbusters in China mainland film market was bleak. No matter the top IP such as Mission Impossible 7, Galaxy Guard 3 or Transformers 7 and Fast and Furious 10, the box office performance was far below expectations. None of them could make it into the top 10 of the annual box office list, and none even earned 1 billion yuan.

Looking at the films that have been scheduled at present, there are one or two new Chinese and foreign films with certain attention almost every weekend, which enriches the market supply of weekend files and meets the audience’s normal viewing needs. I look forward to the off-season in March this year, and China movies are booming.

One car dropped by 100,000, and SAIC Audi was in a hurry.

Originality makes business more valuable.

Audi A7 has always been the title of "the most beautiful Audi" and "the most beautiful coupe" in the world, but the domestic version of A7L has been controversial since its birth. As the mainstay of SAIC Audi’s sales, the big price reduction in recent months has finally helped the company recover its dignity.

Watching Mercedes-Benz E-Class and BMW 5 Series lower their prices, Audi’s high-end cars can’t sit still.

"480,000 Audi A7L, no aura! The 380,000 Audi A7L is impeccable! " In November, 2023, Feng Li from Guangdong bought a Darth Vader version of SAIC Audi A7L 45TFSI quattro S-Line with an official guide price of 478,700 yuan at a landing price of less than 430,000 yuan.

The price of bare car was reduced by 100,000 yuan, including the purchase tax and insurance, and the landing price of the full amount was around 420,000 yuan. As a car enthusiast, Feng Li told the "city circle" that he wouldn’t have paid attention to this car at all if the price had not been cut so hard.

Although Audi A7L has always been the title of "the most beautiful Audi" and "the most beautiful coupe" in the world, and the imported goods are not cheap, it is a dream car for many people, but Audi A7L, as a domestic version of Audi A7, has been controversial.

As long as the price is in place, disputes are trivial.

Unlike Audi A6L, A4L, A3/A3L, Q5L/Q5LSportback and Q3/Q3 Sportback, which are very dazzling star models in China market, Audi A7L does not belong to the camp of FAW Audi (established in 1991), but is the first model launched by SAIC Audi (established in 2021).

At present, SAIC Audi only sells three models of Audi A7L, Q6 and Q5 e-tron. Among them, Q6 and Q5 e-tron are both "special offerings" in China market, and only A7L is a global model made in China, but there are always doubts about styling changes and production support.

The manufacturer of Audi A7L is SAIC Volkswagen, which cancelled the slip-back shape and tail wing when it was localized. Some insiders have analyzed that the original Audi A7 is a niche model, with many people like it and few people buy it. Therefore, when carrying out localization transformation, SAIC Audi designed A7L into a sedan version of the executive car to expand the audience, but it also directly made this car lose its "aura".

An Audi A6 allroad owner said that this is equivalent to cutting off A7′ s biggest selling point. "Originally, A7 took the sports route. Many people just bought it for its beautiful shape and personality. This really changed the soul of A7."

Lengthening the wheelbase is a routine action made in China, but the iconic sliding back shape and lifting tail are cancelled, and it is forcibly changed into a sedan that caters to the market demand of China. This change has made many people say that it is unacceptable, and imported Audi owners are especially "contemptuous".

In addition, some car enthusiasts think that A7L is too close to the calmness of the domestic A6L in the adjustment of daily driving feeling, which is quite different from the original A7L’s brisk sports style.

Based on the above, A7L has been ridiculed by many netizens as "Audi A6.5L", "Audi A6L" and "Audi A6L Plus".

In January 2022, Audi A7L went public for the first time, and the market response was very cold. In 2022, the annual sales volume was only 3,801 vehicles, with an average monthly sales of 316 vehicles. On September 1, 2023, the 2024 Audi A7L was officially launched, with a small change, and the configuration and price were fine-tuned. The price range was 418,700 ~ 699,700 yuan.

According to Sina Auto data, from August to November 2023, the monthly sales of Audi A7L were 1,037, 1,437, 1,645 and 1,806 respectively. In the same period, the average monthly sales of BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E Class of the same level exceeded 10,000.

Soon by the end of 2023, major car companies started a price war, showing their reserve prices one after another. At the beginning of the year and in the middle of the year, it almost became the norm for all brands to encounter "backstab", and even the owners of Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi were not spared. Some imported models with high prices have also experienced large price fluctuations.

It seems that whoever doesn’t reduce the price will be eliminated by the market. Although SAIC Audi has set itself an annual sales target of 50,000 vehicles, it is not high, but it is also very urgent with only three cards in hand.

Recently, the "City Circle" visited a number of SAIC Audi stores in Beijing. Sales staff said that since October 2023, A7L has increased its price reduction efforts, and all models started with a discount of 100,000 yuan, an increase of about 40,000 yuan compared with the middle of the year.

For high-end cars with a price of nearly 400,000 yuan, this new discount seems to be few, but because many consumers are used to comparing it with A6L owned by FAW Audi, it suddenly highlights the cost performance of A7L.

"Many customers refer to A6L. In October, A7L’s entry model, 45TFSI S-Line Dreaming Crystal Edition, had a preferential landing price of about 360,000 yuan. The A6L 45TFSI, which is also a two-wheel drive and 2.0T high-power engine, was selected as elegant. The landing price in the same period was basically 370,000 ~ 380,000 yuan, and the overall configuration was slightly lower than that of A7L. " Sales theory.

However, due to too little attention paid to Audi A7L before, the news of price reduction has lagged behind. From October to November, 2023, the monthly sales volume only increased slightly, and it broke out in December. It is reported that when the price reduction is the largest in December, it can be cheaper by 120,000 ~ 130,000 yuan to buy A7L through loans.

SAIC Audi officially announced that A7L sold 6,281 vehicles in December 2023. According to the data of Easy Car App, the total sales volume of the car in these four weeks has reached 4,801 from January 1 to 28, 2024.

It seems that as long as the price is in place, no matter how controversial the car is, it can’t escape the law of true fragrance.

An interesting episode is that "City Boundary" found on platforms such as Knowing Car Emperor and Xiaohongshu that due to the low popularity of SAIC Audi and the few offline stores, many intentional consumers mistakenly entered FAW Audi’s online live broadcast room and offline 4S shop to consult the price of A7L.

Who is buying Audi A7L?

In Feng Li’s view, compared with the original imported A7L sold in China market, the domestic A7L has a lower value, but its power specifications are very affordable.

For example, Audi’s proud quattro four-wheel drive system will only appear on the imported version of A7 with 3.0T At present, the price of bare car in the market is about 660,000 yuan. In addition to the entry-level models, the Audi A7L is equipped with a quattro four-wheel drive system, whether it is a 45TFSI model with a 2.0T engine or a 55TFSI model with a 3.0T engine.

"Personally, I think that the quattro is the real Audi, but fortunately A7L is not as stingy as the imported version." Feng Li said.

Therefore, when the news of price reduction came, many consumers who had "disdained" A7L went to see the car "honestly".

"City Boundary" found on social platforms such as Xiaohongshu that A7L owners who posted posts are generally young people, most of whom are around 30 years old, and many of them are returned students in their twenties.

Zhao Pu, the owner who bought the A7L Darth Vader version, is one of them. According to him, in the third quarter of 2023, manufacturers launched preferential activities for duty-free cars for international students across the country.

Liu Shan, a returned student from Jiangsu, also said that the Audi A7L she bought in December 2023 was 100,000 yuan cheaper. After tax exemption and agency fees, the final landing price was in the early 390,000 yuan. Liu Shan chose the "Summer Special Edition" model with optional package, and also picked his favorite body color. "If it is a regular model, the price can be lower."

In February, 2024, a duty-free car agency increased the preferential treatment for international students, saying that after the A7L of 3.0T was offered a maximum discount of 130,000 yuan, the company would also enjoy free purchase tax, and also send a fuel card of 1,500 yuan or an equivalent shopping card.

However, the 2.0T version of A7L on the market has a discounted landing price of around 400,000, and there are too many optional models at this price, such as Audi A6L, Mercedes-Benz E-Class and BMW 5 Series. Moreover, when these cars had the greatest preferential treatment in 2023, there were about 100 thousand, and tax exemption policies were also introduced. Comparatively speaking, the Audi A7L is too small, why do young people love to buy it?

Zhao Pu said that apart from the tax exemption policy, he chose A7L more because "this car is rare on the road".

Minority means uniqueness, which conforms to the aesthetic taste of young people "the more special the better, the better the personality". According to the "city boundary" observation, many car owners who choose A7L have jumped over from BMW 4 Series, Audi A5, Audi A4 Avant, Aouita 12 and other niche models.

Although the A7L’s cancellation of the slip-back shape and tail wing is full of controversy, the design of the sedan operated by German designers is not completely unrecognized. "As long as we don’t compare with the imported A7, we only compare the sedan medium and large cars of the same level on the market, and the value of A7L has few rivals." A consumer who is considering starting said.

In the eyES of some young people, mainstream models such as Audi A6L, Mercedes-Benz E-Class, BMW 5 Series and lexus es are "either too commercial or old-fashioned", and they don’t care much about the relationship between A7L and A7. Plus, there are discounts now. After comparison, they chose A7L with little struggle.

SAIC Audi needs to work harder.

About "how to please young people" is the homework of many car companies at present, and SAIC Audi has also paid a lot of tuition fees for it.

Audi A7L has launched the first version, the first version, the Darth Vader version, the White Mage version, the Wind Knight version, the Paladin version, and many other special models. SAIC Audi wants to rely on these distinctive models to achieve a balance between sales and profits through scarcity. Unfortunately, this strategy was not successful at first.

Although SAIC Audi claims that its owners are aged 25-35, the sales volume of less than 1,000 vehicles per month from January 2022 to March 2023 shows that young people who are really willing to spend tens of thousands more than A6L, BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class before the big price reduction are really rare.

On the other hand, another BMW 4 Series, which takes the niche route, is similar in price to A7L, and once sold at a higher price, but people sell better than Audi A7L. In 2023, the monthly sales volume of BMW 4 Series will basically remain above 1,500 vehicles.

Young people are not "stupid people with more money". If you want to impress them, either the products are excellent enough or the prices are sincere enough, they will always be the same.

This round of price reduction, Audi A7L’s approach is wise and helpless. This helplessness began when SAIC Audi turned A7 "magic change" into A7L that was ridiculed by the group.

The birth of A7L is directly related to Audi’s strategic changes in the China market in recent ten years.

Before the establishment of SAIC Audi, Audi had only one joint venture car company in China, namely FAW Audi, which was established in 1991. For more than 30 years, FAW Audi has achieved enough success in China market.

In 2023, FAW-Volkswagen sold more than 1.91 million vehicles, of which Audi brand contributed 36.5% of the sales.

Watching old rivals Mercedes-Benz and BMW make money in China market, German Audi is unbalanced, trying to seize more market share and introduce more models. The simplest way it can think of is to set up another joint venture company to seek higher profits.

In 2016, SAIC and Audi signed a cooperation agreement. As expected, the cooperation was collectively opposed by FAW Audi dealers. It was not until April 2021 that SAIC Audi was formally established, and the first model A7L was released in the same year.

However, since its establishment, SAIC Audi has not had many comfortable days. Because there are too few original models that Audi can directly localize, and the main models in the product matrix have been basically taken away by FAW Audi in recent years, only a few niche and high-end cars such as A5, A7 and Q7 are left to be developed.

Audi, on the other hand, wants to maintain its brand image by importing high-end cars and performance cars, but also wants to make a domestic model that can be accepted by more China consumers, and it can’t affect the imported version, so it can only move out the old routines of "lengthening" and "sedan".

A little different from the previous localization, A7L’s "sedan" may be a helpless choice made on the basis of "lengthening".

After the original A7 is lengthened, a cross beam needs to be added to enhance the strength of the rear part. If you continue to slip the back shape, the cost will increase greatly. Manufacturers who haven’t made any money are of course more inclined to make a sedan.

In fact, apart from the modeling and slightly complicated life experience, A7L itself doesn’t have many slots. The body size, mechanical specifications and design style are basically in line with the global positioning of A7 slightly higher than A6.

Taking the American market as an example, the starting price of the standard wheelbase version of the sedan A6 is 57,300 US dollars (about 412,000 yuan), while the starting price of the A7 is 71,200 US dollars (about 512,000 yuan). The price difference between the two models is just about 100,000 RMB.

In Germany, the starting price of the standard wheelbase sedan A6 is 53,800 euros (about 418,000 yuan), and the starting price of A7 is 63,500 euros (about 493,000 yuan), and the difference is about 75,000 yuan.

Therefore, when A7L was cheaper than A6L, it did attract some consumers who paid attention to cost performance. "Whoever loves to spray it will be finished with incense." In the eyes of some car owners, "the more you spray, the cheaper I buy."

Some people say that the price reduction of A7L has brought SAIC Audi back to life, but after the price is changed, the high-end positioning of A7L may be shaken. However, in the face of the growing volume of China automobile market, SAIC-Audi is very open-minded, and sales volume is king.

Many countries have snapped up cheap waste oil in China, which is out of stock all over the world. Should it be included in strategic materials?

The demand for China’s "gutter oil" is increasing in the United States, Europe and Singapore, mainly for the development of biofuels. However, the global demand for biofuels is huge, and even if all the waste edible oil in China is utilized, it cannot be fully met.

Many countries have snapped up cheap waste oil in China, which is out of stock all over the world. Should it be included in strategic materials?

According to the customs data of China, in 2023, China exported more than 2 million tons of waste edible oil, accounting for more than half of the total domestic production, a record high. Since last year, China has become the world’s largest exporter of waste edible oil. From January to July this year, China has exported 1.58 million tons of waste edible oil, an increase from 1.02 million tons in the same period last year. According to a report released by the General Administration of Customs of China, in July, China exported 176,800 tons of waste edible oil, and the main importing countries included the United States, Singapore and Indonesia.

Many countries have snapped up cheap waste oil in China, which is out of stock all over the world. Should it be included in strategic materials?

Waste edible oil imported from these countries is mainly used to produce biofuels. Whether it is ester-based biodiesel, hydrocarbon-based biodiesel or sustainable aviation fuel, waste edible oil is a key raw material. Biofuels are favored by countries because of their renewability and environmental friendliness. Waste oils and fats will produce greenhouse gases in the process of natural consumption, but if recycled, it will not only produce economic value but also reduce carbon emissions. For example, the carbon emission reduction effect of ester-based biodiesel is about 60% to 70%, while that of hydrocarbon-based biodiesel can reach about 80%.

Many countries have snapped up cheap waste oil in China, which is out of stock all over the world. Should it be included in strategic materials?

The International Air Transport Association requires the aviation industry to achieve zero net carbon emissions by 2050, and stipulates that aircraft should be powered by 100% sustainable aviation fuel, hydrogen or batteries. China’s waste edible oil is exported not only directly, but also in the form of refined biodiesel. In 2023, China’s biodiesel exports to the EU reached an all-time high of 1.8 million tons, of which the Netherlands was the largest importer, followed by Belgium and Spain.

Looking forward to 2018: The China era burst out.

  ◆ "In 30, 50 or 100 years, what will be the most important topic when future generations write the history of our time?" According to Timothy Taylor, an economist at Macalester College in the United States, it is not the budget deficit, taxes and medical insurance in the United States, nor the euro crisis in the European Union, nor even the globalization that has been written in great detail, but: "The history of our time may be determined by the amazing rise of China."

  ◆ Let 2018 be a wonderful first year to open the "road to a strong country" in China’s new era

  2018: The China era spurted out.

  "Standing on the vast land of more than 9.6 million square kilometers, sucking the cultural nutrients accumulated by the long struggle of the Chinese nation for more than 5,000 years, with the majestic power of more than 1.3 billion people in China, we take the Socialism with Chinese characteristics road and have an incomparably broad stage of the times, with an incomparably profound historical heritage and an incomparably strong determination to advance."

  Looking back on the past 2017, as far as the world is concerned, it was a year of great turmoil, great diversion and great change. For China, the most accurate description of this year is undoubtedly the wonderful outline of the great powers of the East made by this passage at the end of the report of the 19th National Congress.

  The reason why there is such a sharp contrast is that in 2017, the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China was called "a major event to change the global situation" by the Financial Times, "it will affect the future direction of regional and world politics and economy" by Lianhe Zaobao, "it is of great significance to the CPC, China and the world" by The New York Times, USA, and described by the BBC as "standing in front of the world map".

  The world’s largest ruling party congress, which was called the "world congress" by the western media for the first time in the history of world political parties, put forward a complete and practical "rejuvenation strategy" for the China people’s journey into a modern and powerful country in Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, provided powerful kinetic energy for world development, laid a solid foundation for global stability, and contributed China’s wisdom to the road choice for mankind to enter a new stage of historical development.

  In particular, the 19th National Congress put forward Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era, and NHK said, "Without it, China cannot become stronger"; The election of a new central collective leadership with the Supreme Leader as the core, Washington post said, will definitely "make China and the whole world better" in the next few years.

  On December 10, 2016, Timothy Taylor, an economist at Macalester College and editor-in-chief of Economic Outlook magazine, asked in an article entitled "The Rise of China: The Wealth of a Country", "What will be the most important topic when future generations write the history of our time in 30, 50 or 100 years?" In his view, it is not the budget deficit, taxes and medical insurance in the United States, nor the euro crisis in the European Union, nor even the globalization of books, but: "The history of our time may be determined by the amazing rise of China."

  Throughout the history of the whole world, only China civilization has been in constant flux for thousands of years. However, as early as the 18th century, some western enlightenment thinkers expressed contempt for this sense of pride, and gave their "explanation" for the historical continuity of China civilization: the ancient civilization of China could exist for a long time, but only because it had not been attacked by a strong civilization or nation.

  Now, when we open the report of the 19th National Congress, full of firm confidence in the road of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s modernization and powerful country in the new era, and go into 2018, we will once again deeply realize that it is China that is so different that the world will open up new imagination and inspire new hopes.

  "Do more China" in 2018

  The Central Economic Work Conference held at the end of 2017 marked 2018 with three attributes: the first year of implementing the spirit of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the 40th anniversary of reform and opening-up, and the decisive year of building a well-off society in an all-round way and implementing the 13th Five-Year Plan. This means that China, approaching the center of the world stage, will continue its "highlight moment".

  "Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, China’s economic development has made historic achievements and undergone historic changes, which has provided important material conditions for reform and development in other fields." The Central Economic Work Conference systematically summarized the great changes in China’s economic development in the past five years from six aspects:

  First, the economic strength has reached a new level, with an average annual growth rate of 7.1%, which has become the main power source and stabilizer for world economic growth;

  Second, there have been major changes in the economic structure, promoting structural reforms on the supply side and promoting the balance between supply and demand;

  Third, the economic system reform has continued to advance, and the economy has become more dynamic and resilient;

  Fourth, deepening the opening up to the outside world, advocating and promoting the joint construction of the "Belt and Road" and actively guiding economic globalization in the right direction;

  Fifth, the people’s sense of gain and happiness has been significantly enhanced, decisive progress has been made in the fight against poverty, and the degree of equalization of basic public services has been continuously improved, forming the most populous middle-income group in the world;

  Sixth, the ecological environment has obviously improved. The determination, strength and effectiveness of promoting ecological civilization construction are unprecedented, and the prevention and control actions of air, water and soil pollution have achieved remarkable results.

  Almost at the same time, many international research institutions gave positive comments on China’s economic achievements. On December 19th, 2017, the World Bank released the latest China Economic Bulletin, which raised the estimated economic growth rate of China from 6.7% to 6.8% in 2017. Earlier, the United Nations released the World Economic Situation and Prospects in 2018, which predicted that the global economy would grow at the fastest rate since 2011 in 2017, and China’s contribution rate to global economic growth was about one-third.

  Li Weiqiao, chief economist of the World Bank in China, commented that China’s economy has maintained growth resilience and the momentum of reform has increased. Therefore, in 2017, China achieved success on many fronts, especially the accelerated growth of residents’ income and consumption, which promoted economic rebalancing. Mirisha, a senior economist at the bank, believes that favorable economic conditions provide a good opportunity for China to further reduce macroeconomic risks and deepen reforms in 2018, and strive to achieve higher quality, more efficient, fairer and more sustainable development.

  China’s foreign trade, the first to feel the "spring tide" in the new era, has handed over a refreshing report card. On December 28, 2017, Gao Feng, a spokesman for the Ministry of Commerce, said that in the first 11 months of 2017, China’s foreign trade import and export volume reached 25.14 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 15.6%. In dollar terms, it was $3,703.2 billion, a year-on-year increase of 12%. At this rate, if there are no special circumstances, it is estimated that China’s foreign trade import and export volume will once again exceed 4 trillion US dollars in 2017.

  Foreign trade has an obvious pulling effect on national economic growth. According to Gao Feng’s specific analysis, in recent years, we have resolutely promoted the supply-side structural reform in the field of foreign trade, and the labor efficiency, capital efficiency, resource and environmental efficiency of foreign trade enterprises have been effectively improved, and the variety, quality and grade of products are developing in the direction of high-end, intelligent. Generally speaking, China’s foreign trade import and export is shifting from a high-speed growth stage to a high-quality development stage, and the development potential is gradually being released.

  From the external environment, all parties are generally optimistic about the global economic growth in 2018. According to the forecast of the International Monetary Fund, the world economy is expected to grow by 3.7% in 2018, which is 0.1 percentage point faster than the expected world economic growth rate in 2017. The growth rate of international trade in goods and services will reach 4.0%, which is higher than the average growth rate of 3.4% from 2013 to 2017 in the last five years and exceeds the growth rate of the world economy.

  On the basis of five years’ historical achievements and changes, Ren Zeping, chief economist of Evergrande Group, gave an impressive prediction and analysis of the future when interviewed by the reporter of Outlook News Weekly. "In the long process from 2010 to 2015, we can see that the market has been cleared spontaneously, and then the supply-side structural reform from 2016 to 2017 is superimposed, and the progress of capacity transformation and transformation is beyond the market imagination.

  He judged that from 2016 to 2018, after three consecutive years of L-shaped bottom, China’s economy will gradually change market expectations. "With the start of a new round of production cycle, the superposition of a new round of inventory cycle and the impact of real estate regulation on the economy coming to an end, China’s economy may break through the L-shape in 2019. This means that all short positions in the economy will definitely increase in the second half of 2018. "

  In fact, the Central Economic Work Conference has given a major directional judgment. "Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, and China’s economic development has also entered a new era. The basic feature is that China’s economy has shifted from a high-speed growth stage to a high-quality development stage." This strongly indicates that a new wave of development in China is surging in the depths of the skyline.

  On the Eve of the Big Bang of the Information Revolution

  "From the macro-economic operation data, we can only see one side of China’s economy, just like an electrocardiogram of the elderly, which fluctuates lower and lower until it finally becomes a parallel line. But when you open the industrial structure behind this parallel line and look at the growth curve, you will find the heart of a young man, with a surge of emotion and a strong pulse. "

  In the interview, Liu Yuhui, director of China Economic Evaluation Center of China Academy of Social Sciences, pointed to the sharply differentiated economic data curve on PPT and told the reporter of Outlook News Weekly, "China’s economy is now a divided picture, half of which is seawater and half is flame."

  From the perspective of industrial growth, emerging industries such as electronic products, computers and communication products are all growing at a high speed of about 15%, while traditional industries such as steel, cement, heavy chemicals and mining are at a low speed of about 3% or even negative growth. In terms of consumption, online consumption in China has increased by 35%, while offline consumption has only increased by 5% ~ 6%. So, together, it is a 10% parallel line. If you don’t look at the structure, you can’t see any changes.

  In Liu Yuhui’s eyes, in the past five years, as the decision-makers vigorously advocated the innovation-driven development strategy, fully promoted the supply-side structural reform, and focused on promoting "three to one, one reduction and one supplement", the "young side" of China’s economy has become increasingly youthful. "The creation of new economy, new technology, new format and the iteration of new business are full of vitality and prosperity."

  In 2017, Goldman Sachs, an American investment bank, believed that with China’s economy entering a new era and the rapid development of technologies such as AI, intelligent logistics and electric vehicles, the future lifestyle of China people may be reshaped, which may also have a significant impact on the investment direction of the global capital market.

  For this reason, Goldman Sachs has selected 50 stocks from 18 emerging industries in China, of which 49% are technology, 21% are consumption upgrading, and finance only accounts for 7%, which is called "New Beautiful 50 Index". The results of the data are somewhat surprising. These companies representing the "new China" have long left behind the high point of the stock market bubble in 2015 and performed extremely strongly.

  Encouraged by this, Goldman Sachs made another study, dividing China’s new economy into four parts: emerging industries, Internet, consumption upgrading and health industries. The results show that the growth rate of the Internet is over 30%, and the emerging industries, health industries and consumption upgrading sectors are all growing at a rate of over 20%. This implies that today’s China is on the eve of the full penetration and deep application of the information technology revolution, and a large number of new industries, new formats, new technologies and new models are condensing the all-round new kinetic energy of a new round of innovation and development in China.

  Liu Yuhui believes that in the past five years, China’s "largest and most strategic infrastructure investment" is to effectively connect more than 1.3 billion people with a huge information network, people-to-people connection, people-to-things connection, and things-to-things connection … … Everything connected has turned China into a vast ocean of data.

  "Traditional industries rely on land and capital, and economic transformation and new business creation rely on data, which is a big difference between emerging economies and traditional economies." In Liu Yuhui’s view, the increasingly active innovation wave of China’s information technology revolution is bringing more and more capital and talents into China’s "data ocean". This great change has quietly enhanced the resilience of China’s economy and changed the structure of China’s economy, and this process is still accelerating.

  At present, the competition pattern of the global economy G2 has basically become a historical freeze. Others will be pursuers. Why? Liu Yuhui said that it is precisely because of the technological revolution that the future will be the digital economy of the Internet, so the global economic competition pattern is fixed in China and the United States, two Internet economic powers. "At present, the trend of competition between Chinese and American science and technology giants has been formed, and the US ‘ GAFA’ — — Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon, China ‘ BATX’ — — Baidu, Ali, Tencent and Xiaomi. "

  These science and technology giants have infiltrated into dozens of different new industries, and have already surpassed the concepts such as the Internet platform, forming a super "business ecosystem" that can be extended almost indefinitely without boundaries, from location-based local services, digital medical care, driverless, intelligent transportation, to Internet finance, new retail, new entertainment, intelligent hardware, and chip research and development & HELIP; … They break the boundary between network and reality and are active in various scenes online and offline; They cross the boundary between software and hardware, and provide consumers with services in the whole life process from birth to death.

  Liu Yuhui told this reporter that the Internet revolution is shaping the resilience of China’s economy, and China’s national movement has a solid micro-foundation. "The information revolution and Internet economy are the outlets of China’s strategic opportunities. What is currently being staged in China is to prepare for China to reach the top of the world in 2035 and revive its national glory in 2049."

  Modernization shaping of Millennium civilization

  In the history of human development, strategic opportunities are fair to every country and people. With the world’s development prospects still foggy and chaotic, the biggest difference in 2018 is the fate of one person, one family, one enterprise, one country and one nation for hundreds of millions of people in China and the main body of market economy, all because of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, which has a clear course of a new journey of becoming a powerful country in Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era for more than 30 years.

  "Whether it is revolution or construction, the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation has always been the actual goal and the greatest motivation of our party." Pan Wei, director of the Center for China and World Studies in Peking University, told the reporter of Outlook Newsweek that at present, China is at the historical intersection of the goals of "two hundred years". How to build a well-off society in an all-round way, realize the goal of the first century, and how to take advantage of the situation to start a new journey of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way and March toward the goal of the second century? The CPC Central Committee with the supreme leader as the core gathers the wisdom of the whole party and the people of the whole country and serve the people of China at the party’s 19th National Congress.

  The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China comprehensively analyzed the international and domestic situation and China’s development conditions, put forward clear requirements for building a well-off society in an all-round way, and divided the realization of the goal of the second century into two stages. From 2020 to 2035, on the basis of building a well-off society in an all-round way, we will struggle for another 15 years to basically realize socialist modernization; Strive for another 15 years on the basis of basically realizing modernization, and build China into a prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized, harmonious and beautiful socialist modernization power by the middle of this century.

  This is the strategic arrangement of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s new development in the new era, which not only makes the road map and timetable for realizing the goal of "two hundred years" clearer, but also means that the original goal of basically realizing modernization in China will be completed 15 years ahead of schedule, and the goal of the second century will be enriched and upgraded to build China into a prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized, harmonious and beautiful socialist modernization power.

  In Pan Wei’s view, China’s "modernization" has always been "the people are rich and the country is strong", "but China’s modernization is not the modernization of capitalism, but the modernization of socialism, not the modernization of a few people, but the modernization of the broad masses of the people, the modernization of the whole Chinese nation and the modernization led by the Communist Party of China (CPC)."

  It is precisely because of this "rejuvenation strategy" to realize the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation that the future of China and the destiny of the people of China are spreading a broad and bright picture of "Yuyu clarifying Wan Li’s Egypt".

  China’s economy is looking forward to a new starting point in 2018. In the interview, Zhong Wei, a professor at the Financial Research Center of Beijing Normal University, made an analysis and judgment on the development of China in three points:

  2020: Reach a new historical height of human industrialization and urbanization.

  From now until 2020, China is in the critical period of building a well-off society in an all-round way, and it is also in the rising period of the world economy pointed out by the Chairman of the Supreme Leader at the APEC meeting in Da Nang, Vietnam.

  It is expected that in the next three years, China’s economic growth rate will stabilize at the growth platform of 6% ~ 7%. In 2020, China’s GDP will be about 15 trillion US dollars, and the per capita GDP will reach the average level of the world. The global proportion of China’s population and GDP will be about 18%.

  This is not only the time when China’s well-off society is built in an all-round way, but also means that the rapid development of China’s economy will double the population enjoying industrial civilization and urban civilization in the past 500 years, and then China will be close to the entry threshold of OECD countries.

  2035: Return to the country at the center of the stage.

  2035 is the key node of the goal of the second century. So what is the significance of 2035? First of all, the goal of 2035 put forward by the 19th National Congress advanced the goal of basically realizing modernization by the middle of the next century put forward by Comrade Deng Xiaoping in the early stage of reform and opening up by 15 years. At the same time, China’s GDP in 2035 is about 30 trillion US dollars, which is equal to or slightly larger than that of the United States. The global proportion of China’s GDP is about 25%, and the world ranking of per capita GDP will be within 50, which is roughly equivalent to the current ranking of Central and Eastern European countries.

  From 2035 to 2050, the global proportion of China’s GDP is in the normal range of 25% ~ 40%. This is the level of China’s economic capacity in the world economic system from Qin and Han Dynasties to 1840. China has the ability to lead East Asia to become an important region on a par with North America and Europe.

  Since World War II, only the former Soviet Union and Japan have approached 70% of the GDP of the United States, and the gap between them and the United States has gradually widened since then. The year 2035 may be the key point for China to approach the United States in all directions, even to the same level, in terms of economic scale and competitiveness since World War II.

  2050: A Great Revived Civilization Power.

  China will gradually get rid of the "three-phase superposition", from "how to see" China’s economy through the new normal, to the long-term strategy of "how to reform" China’s economy through supply-side structural reform, and then to the road of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s modernization and strengthening the country in the new era, and China’s economy will grow from high speed to high quality.

  By 2050, China’s GDP will be about 60 trillion US dollars. This means that the global share of China’s GDP will exceed one third. From World War II to 1960s, the GDP of the United States accounted for about 40% of the global GDP.

  Zhong Wei said, "It can be said that with the realization of the Chinese dream, China will realize the great national rejuvenation in 2050. At that time, the difference between China and the United States was that the United States was a century-old power and China was a Millennium civilization. "

  Ideological guide to the journey of strengthening the country in the new era

  Since the new century, the world has never been in great development, great change and great adjustment. The pattern of international power and global competition are evolving with each passing day, showing a fierce collision like a land-sea structure.

  That is, capitalist civilization is fading, the focus of global development is shifting from the west to the east, and southern countries are beginning to expand from political awakening to economic awakening, development awakening and even institutional awakening and ideological awakening.

  Every major leap forward of human society and every major development of human civilization cannot be separated from the knowledge change and ideological guidance of philosophy and social sciences. After the 18th National Congress, China’s all-round achievements and historic changes have proved this truth. It has been noted that the Central Economic Work Conference put forward Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era at the 19th National Congress, and put forward Socialism with Chinese characteristics Economic Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era with the new development concept as the main content for the first time:

  Insist on strengthening the party’s centralized and unified leadership over economic work to ensure that China’s economy develops in the right direction;

  Adhere to the people-centered development thought, which runs through the overall layout of "five in one" and the coordinated promotion of "four comprehensive" strategic layout;

  Adhere to the adaptation and grasp the new normal of leading economic development, base on the overall situation and grasp the law;

  Insist on making the market play a decisive role in resource allocation, give better play to the role of the government, and resolutely remove institutional and institutional obstacles to economic development;

  Insist on adapting to the main contradictions and changes in China’s economic development, improve macro-control, make a choice according to circumstances, prescribe a correct prescription, and take promoting supply-side structural reform as the main line of economic work;

  Adhering to the problem-oriented deployment of the new strategy of economic development has a far-reaching impact on China’s economic and social development and reform;

  Adhere to the correct work strategies and methods, strive for progress steadily, maintain strategic strength, adhere to the bottom line thinking, and move forward step by step.

  Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s economic thought in the new era, the supreme leader with seven persistences as the core, is the theoretical crystallization of promoting China’s economic development practice in the past five years, the latest achievement of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s political economy, and the ideological guide for the Communist Party of China (CPC) to shoulder the historical responsibility for the fate of the people in China and the future of human development, and the ideological weapon for driving whales to overcome risks and difficulties.

  In an interview with the reporter of Outlook Newsweek, Tian Yingkui, a professor of economics at the Party School of the CPC Central Committee, interpreted it as "the core idea of economic governance modernization in 2049". In his view, towards 2049, the modernization of China’s economic governance faces three major issues: First, how to continuously improve the quality and efficiency of national economic development; Second, how to continuously improve the fairness and sharing level of national income distribution; The third is how to continuously improve the fairness and efficiency of the national economic system.

  On this basis, we should accomplish three strategic tasks:

  In the sense of production level and total supply, we should solve the problems of total quantity, structure, quality and benefit in economic development with high quality and high efficiency;

  In the sense of distribution and demand determination, we should solve the problems of wages, profits, taxes and social security in national distribution with high quality and high efficiency;

  At the institutional level and in the sense of rules of conduct, we should solve the problems of fairness, efficiency, rule of law and science in the economic system with high quality and high efficiency.

  Tian Yingkui believes that all these can be found in the economic thought of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, the supreme leader in the new era with seven persistences as the core, to solve the problem and to overcome the difficulties. Among them, he believes that there are two most important points: First, insist on strengthening the party’s centralized and unified leadership over economic work. The second is to adhere to the people-centered development thinking.

  This is because Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, which means that the higher the starting point, the greater the difficulty and the more arduous the task. It also means that there are more and more new situations and problems, more and more contradictions and difficulties, more and more risks and challenges, and more and more resistance and pressure. At the same time, the instability and uncertainty facing the world are outstanding, especially the development and growth of China will inevitably have a major impact on the existing international structure. Some countries do not want to see the development and growth of socialist China, and do everything possible to prevent, obstruct and contain it.

  How to conform to the trend of the times of peace, development, cooperation and win-win, and catch up in the process of knowing change, adapting to change and seeking change? How to better coordinate the domestic and international situations, win advantages, win initiative and win the future in the fierce international competition? How to expand the right to speak and make rules in participating in global governance, firmly defend China’s sovereignty, security and development interests, safeguard world peace and promote common development? It can be seen that the happiness of the people and the rejuvenation of the nation cannot be separated from the leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core for a moment, and it cannot be opened without the guidance of the most powerful political party in the world.

  In Tian Yingkui’s view, adhering to the people-centered development thought is the fundamental political purpose of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s market economy. Its core idea and thought is that all economic construction and development, all economic governance and reform should take the people as the center and the interests of the people as the foundation; Take people’s satisfaction and dissatisfaction, promise and disapproval, support and disapproval as the development criteria.

  Specifically, it is to combine "socialism" with "market economy", develop modern market economy under socialist conditions, develop socialism in the construction of modern market economy, adhere to the combination of economic marketism and economic socialism, establish and improve Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s market economy system, and realize a higher degree of fairness and efficiency, and the organic combination of government and market. This is a great innovation of China people, Chinese nation and the Communist Party of China (CPC) in the understanding of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s economic construction thought, and also a great historic leap in the history of world socialist economic practice.

  At the end of the interview, Pan Wei pointed out a detail to the reporter of Lookout Newsweek. The report of the 19th National Congress made it clear at the beginning that the theme of this conference was "Do not forget your initiative mind, remember the mission", and the end of this report was "A trip to the Avenue, the world is public".

  The phrase "A trip to the Avenue, the world is for the public" comes from the Book of Rites, followed by the words "Choose the virtuous and able, uphold faith and cultivate friendship, so the old friend is not only close to his relatives, but also has no only son and son, so that he can get old, be strong and useful, and all those who are proud, widowed, lonely and disabled can be supported. Men have points, women have returns. Goods, if you abandon them to the ground, don’t hide them in yourself; Force, evil is not out of the body, not for yourself. Therefore, it is said that it is great harmony to seek closure without prosperity, to steal thieves without doing anything, and therefore to go outside without closing. "

  The ideology, humanistic spirit and moral norms of this excellent Chinese traditional culture have continued to this day, and will certainly inject new connotations and create new glories in the new era. In Pan Wei’s view, from 2018, these will become more and more concrete with development. (Published in the first issue of Outlook in 2018/Wang Jianjun, reporter of Outlook News Weekly)

Lin Yihua: Rene Liu will not play Zhang Ailing.


Rene Liu once played Zhang Ailing in She Comes from the Sea.



▲ Zhang Ailing


  Following the great success of dramas such as Half Life and Madame Bovary in entering the mainland drama market, Lin Yihua, a famous Hong Kong director, revealed that Zhang Ailing’s little reunion would be put on the stage next. It is said that Lin Yihua is a fan of Zhang, and he adapted the Guan Jinpeng version of the film Red Rose and White Rose in 1994, and won the Golden Horse Award for Best Adapted Screenplay.


  Hong Kong director Lin Yihua recently arrived in Shanghai with actors David Wang and Yinxuan Xie to perform the drama "Life and Survival of Gorgeous Office Workers". Lin Yihua, a prolific producer, told reporters that besides inviting Zhan Ruiwen and Rene Liu to create a play for the Shanghai World Expo, a stage version of little reunion is also being planned and is expected to be released in November.


  The actor of "Jiu Li" is undecided.


  Little reunion, Zhang Ailing’s posthumous work, was published this year, and Lin Yihua vacillated between A Dream of Red Mansions and little reunion when planning her performance plan for the second half of the year, so she sent emails to ask her friends for advice. According to the reply, he finally decided to choose "little reunion". "In my opinion, without all the topics shrouded in this novel, Zhang Ailing’s life actually seems to be floating in this world. The novel played a symphony of life, and finally it was the sad music like the Hu Qin, which was disturbing. This gave me a starting point for music. If I did, I might divide the whole play into several movements, such as sacrifice, dedication and return … "


  When asked if Rene Liu, who once played Zhang Ailing in the TV series "She Comes from the Sea", would be invited to play the heroine, Lin Yihua thought for a moment and said with a smile, "I have invited her to do another play with me, as well as Zhan Ruiwen in the Hong Kong drama circle. We plan to bring this play to the Shanghai World Expo. As for the content of the title of the play, it is still confidential. Let’s call it’ Mystery Lady’ for the time being. " At present, Lin Yihua is discussing copyright issues with copyright owners, and the actors will still be his regular cast, such as "David" David Wang and "Sophie" Yinxuan Xie in "Gorgeous Office Workers", which are scheduled to premiere in Hong Kong and Taiwan in November, but when they will come to the mainland has not been determined.


  It won’t be a "happy reunion"


  Someone next to me said that many people think little reunion is not easy to read. Lin Yihua nodded and said, "It is a bit, but I read it for a third and found the password." Lin Yihua, who never follows the rules in filming, said that the play will definitely not follow the narrative order of the novel, but it will definitely extract the most important characters and story clues. "The most important thing is that Zhang Ailing and our present era can overlap."


  According to Lin Yihua’s current conception, the stage version of little reunion will not be completely arranged according to the plot of the novel, nor will it rely on the direction of Zhang Ailing’s autobiography. "What matters is not to make little reunion a’ happy reunion’. Characters will jump in and out, for example, in some scenes, several different actors will play the role of Zhang Ailing’s father, even without excluding actresses. I hope that after the stage play is staged, the audience who have never read the novel will want to read the book, and the audience who have read the book will want to read it again. " (He Bian)

Killing the foreign tiger was "closed"

    Core tip: "I really don’t know that climbing over the guardrail is the tiger garden." Yesterday afternoon, Xiao Xu recalled the scene when the three brothers crossed the fence and mistakenly broke into the tiger garden, shaking their heads again and again. On the afternoon of the day before yesterday, the three men went to visit the Badaling Great Wall. When they went down the mountain, they took a shortcut and strayed into the Northeast Tiger Park in Badaling Wildlife World. Xiao Xu’s 18-year-old cousin Guo was killed by a Northeast Tiger.


    Three youths from Hebei cut into Badaling Tiger Park by mistake, one died and two were rescued.



    Yesterday afternoon, the Northeast Tiger Area of Badaling Wildlife Park was closed to the outside world and was guarded by work vehicles. Our reporter Wang Jianing photo


    (Reporter Gan Hao) "I really don’t know that climbing over the guardrail is a tiger garden." Yesterday afternoon, Xiao Xu recalled the scene when the three brothers crossed the fence and mistakenly broke into the tiger garden, shaking their heads again and again. On the afternoon of the day before yesterday, the three men went to visit the Badaling Great Wall. When they went down the mountain, they took a shortcut and strayed into the Northeast Tiger Park in Badaling Wildlife World. Xiao Xu’s 18-year-old cousin Guo was killed by a Northeast Tiger. Yesterday afternoon, the Northeast Tiger Park in Badaling Wildlife World was temporarily closed.


    Unfortunately, the young man is under 18 years old.


    Xiao Xu introduced that all three of them are from Xingtai, Hebei Province, and the other two are his brothers and cousins. They came to work in Beijing more than half a month ago, and their cousin Guo is not yet 18 years old. At noon the day before yesterday, the three of them went to visit the Badaling Great Wall.


    At about four o’clock in the afternoon, the three men arrived at the highest crib of the Great Wall and prepared to go down the mountain. "After going back for more than three hours, I want to take a shortcut down the mountain." Xiao Xu said that it was getting late. At this moment, the three people just saw a short cut down the hill and buses passing by, so they decided to take this short cut.


    "When I approached, I found that I was stopped by the iron net." Xiao Xu said that after crossing the three iron nets, "we wanted to go out along the path ahead, but we didn’t expect to see a big tiger when we walked 100 meters." Xiao Xu said that the tiger came out of the roadside Woods and kept staring at them, less than 10 meters away.


    The young man was not breathing when he was rescued.


    "I am completely embarrassed." Xiao Xu said that they immediately turned and fled, and the cousin fell at the end. He was thrown to the ground by the tiger without running a few steps. Xiao Xu and his brother ran a hundred meters away and turned over an iron gate more than three meters high. They couldn’t see their cousin because of the trees. A few minutes later, the staff drove a jeep to save the two.


    Liu Yisen, deputy general manager of Wildlife World, said that when the incident occurred, the inspectors were driving by. "Seeing that the tiger is biting a man’s throat, the man has no response." Liu Yisen said that the staff immediately drove up to the biting tiger, forcing the tiger to let go and run away. Subsequently, the staff drove the tiger back to the pool and got off the bus and found that the bitten man had no breathing. After arriving at 120, the man was confirmed dead.


    Yesterday afternoon, the Northeast Tiger Park in Badaling Wildlife World was temporarily closed. Other tiger parks such as Bengal tiger and animal parks such as bears and lions are open normally.


    ■ follow-up visit


    Biting Siberian tigers are locked up.


    Yesterday afternoon, the Northeast Tiger Park in Badaling Wildlife Park was temporarily closed, and neither tour buses nor self-driving cars were allowed to enter. "The biting tiger has been kept in solitary confinement." Liu Yisen, deputy general manager of Wildlife World, said that this is an adult Siberian tiger with a strong physique.


    Another person in charge said that after the zoo is closed, all wild animals such as bears, tigers and lions will be driven back to the house due to feeding and safety problems. Considering saving resources, the inner power grid will be cut off and powered on the next day before the beast is released. The person in charge also said that the wild animals in the park are stocked, and in order to make the living conditions of the wild animals close to nature, live food feeding is carried out at intervals.


    ■ doubt


    Three lines of defense failed to stop the intruder.


    According to Liu Yisen, the Northeast Tiger Park is located on the west side of the entire wildlife park, and there is a section of the Badaling Great Wall winding northward nearby. There are Woods between the Great Wall and the zoo, and the staff call it a "no man’s land".


    Liu Yisen said that in order to prevent animals from escaping and outsiders from entering, there are three fences in Badaling Wildlife World, and there are obvious warning signs hanging outside the guardrail: "Do not approach if there are wild animals inside". The outermost layer is a 2-meter-high steel guardrail, and the middle layer is a 3.6-meter-high wire fence, both of which are uncharged. The innermost layer is a 1-meter-high power grid, close to the protective net in the middle, and its instantaneous voltage can reach more than 7000 volts, mainly to prevent animals from leaving the park. At the beginning of March, the garden also inspected warning signs and protective nets, and found no problems.


    Xiao Xu said that the three men only saw a wooden sign with a white background and a rusty iron sign on the outermost steel guardrail, which was not marked. At that time, they thought these three iron nets were to protect the Great Wall, so they crossed it. When they reached the third protective net, they found that the net was charged and went through one of the gaps.


    Liu Yisen said that when the staff asked the two survivors that day, they said that they saw the warning signs, but they did not believe that there were really wild animals in the park. In the meantime, the staff also smelled alcohol on the two. In this regard, two survivors said that they had never drunk.


    Our reporter Gan Hao


    ■ aftermath


    Family members entered the scene and did not see the wounded tiger.


    The person in charge of the park said that there were three guardrails in the animal park and obvious warning signs were hung, which was very unexpected.


    After the incident the day before yesterday, Xiao Xu and his brother were temporarily placed in a hotel in Yanqing by the zoo. At 5 o’clock in the morning yesterday, the families of the deceased also rushed to Yanqing.


    Yesterday morning, Xiao Xu and his uncle and other family members came to Badaling Wildlife Park and asked to go to the scene of the incident for identification. Under the arrangement of the garden, family members and others entered the Northeast Tiger Park, but no tigers were seen.


    Yesterday, the two sides made a preliminary contact on compensation. At present, the two sides have not reached an agreement on the issue of liability. Because no agreement was reached on the determination of liability, the two sides failed to continue negotiations on the amount of compensation. The person in charge of the garden said that Xu ignored the warning and crossed the guardrail into the garden. "I should bear the corresponding responsibility."

Hundreds of billions of dollars have been invested in loneliness. Why is Baidu Zhijia overtaken by Huawei corners?

Recently, Xia Yiping, CEO of Extreme Yue Automobile, was not surprisingly dead in an interview. He said that Huawei’s investment in smart driving is 10 billion, while Baidu’s investment in smart driving is 100 billion, which means that Baidu’s investment in smart driving is ten times that of Huawei. Of course, it is self-evident.

Many people are shocked by this news. Most people know that Baidu is really doing smart driving. A few people also know that Baidu has its own car. Of course, the car is also using Baidu’s solution. But it is estimated that not many people will think that Baidu’s investment will be greater than Huawei’s. After all, Huawei’s products are everywhere, and the market influence is huge. Baidu’s products are much rarer, and its influence is even more incomparable.

Baidu and Huawei, who is more intelligent in driving and who invests more? Let the Kung Fu car show you around.

(1) 100 billion investment is a bit empty?

Let’s take a look at the historical process of intellectual driving between the two sides, and then combine their R&D investment to see what the two companies have done in recent years.

Baidu’s intelligent driving research and development began in 2013. In this year, Baidu began to do open source projects and began to make autonomous driving solutions. From the perspective of "qualifications" alone, Baidu is indeed one of the earliest enterprises in China to do smart driving, which is basically synchronized with Tesla and Google abroad. In 2021, Baidu defined three directions for its own smart driving, namely, providing smart driving solutions to OEMs, building their own cars, and then developing and sharing unmanned vehicles.

According to the public financial report, from 2013 to 2023, Baidu’s total R&D investment was 167.2 billion. If 100 billion was invested in smart driving, it means that the R&D investment of smart driving accounted for 59.8% of Baidu’s R&D investment.

How can I put it? This data is not impossible. After all, most of the money earned by Baidu in recent years has really been invested in the two directions of smart driving and AI. However, considering Baidu’s own business, I personally think that the proportion of investment in smart driving alone should not exceed 50%. More than 50 billion may be there, and 100 billion feels a bit empty.

Huawei’s investment in smart driving is relatively clear. When Huawei’s new smart car solution brand "Gankun" was released in April this year, Jin Yuzhi, CEO of Huawei’s smart car solution BU, once introduced that the department was established in 2019, and the accumulated R&D investment in five years exceeded 30 billion (about 6 billion per year). This data is still relatively credible.

Of course, if you want to talk about Huawei’s R&D investment in other areas, such as big models and AI, it’s hard to say whether R&D funds are included in smart driving investment. Anyway, it’s a muddle.

However, at least one thing is certain. The investment of Huawei Smart Drive and Baidu Smart Drive should be in an order of magnitude, and it will never be as bad as ten times. Because Baidu started earlier, it is still possible to invest more.

(2) What is the difference in output?

Let’s just say that Baidu has really invested more. Next, let’s talk about output, and the difference between the two may be a bit big.

When Huawei first entered the field of intelligent driving, it put forward its own goals, hoping to be Bosch in the era of electrification and provide a full set of intelligent solutions for OEMs. However, the effect is not ideal, most enterprises hold a wait-and-see attitude, and the promotion is not smooth. So Huawei made a smart car selection project, that is, cooperated with the OEM, but Huawei defined the smart car and gave the core intelligent hardware and software.

After several years of development, Huawei has formed a complete set of industrial chains. Needless to say, intelligent driving technology, the system has developed to the third generation, supporting intelligent assisted driving in the whole scene and intelligent parking in the whole scene, and then it can realize intelligent driving from parking space to parking space. In order to better realize intelligent driving, Huawei has also built its own high-performance motor and a special Turing intelligent chassis, which can realize full-dimensional perception, 3D control and intelligent collaboration.

Let’s put it this way: even the old rivals want to purchase Huawei’s motors. Recently, the independent BU department has been valued at 115 billion, and major car companies are scrambling to invest. Huawei is even the first company to beat down the price of lidar. It can be said that Huawei’s investment in smart driving has been richly rewarded and it has its own intelligent industrial chain.

Baidu’s smart driving output is not satisfactory. Since 2015, Baidu has found a lot of well-known car companies such as Daimler, BMW, Ford and Volvo to cooperate. Many domestic cars have also "tested the water", but the effect is not obvious. Cars equipped with Baidu Zhijia are rarely publicized as their own "business cards".

One of the most famous is probably Weimar, who has been holding Baidu for a long time and hasn’t done it yet. In the end, Baidu couldn’t help but make a gathering, and there was basically no noise. Including now, it has been listed for half a year, and the highest monthly sales volume is only 1143 vehicles.

The only achievement that can be achieved is probably that the radish runs fast. However, in terms of completion, it still only supports getting on the bus at a specific location, and the coverage is limited. There is still a long way to go before it can truly replace the online car. The biggest advantage is that it is cheap, but this cheapness is actually based on the "capital operation" of Internet companies. I hope to achieve market monopoly, and then I will serve as a "platform". Didi and Meituan are all like this.

However, it is hard to say whether the radish will eventually become Didi, Meituan, or Xiaohuangche and Ruixing.

(3) Hardware companies and Internet companies are very different?

The difference between Baidu Smart Drive and Huawei Smart Drive is also the difference between two different companies to a large extent. Baidu is a typical Internet company, while Huawei is closer to a hardware company.

The characteristics of software companies are that they like to invest early, get high returns, and pursue a monopoly. Like Baidu, the earliest money was made by being a search engine. When Google withdraws from the China market, Baidu will become a monopoly. Since then, it has been making big profits, and on this basis, it has expanded the business of encyclopedia, knowledge, post bar and so on, forming a complete ecological circle.

But this has also led to a problem. Baidu lacks the ability to actually make products. Baidu has been doing smart driving for so many years. The car is from the main engine factory, the laser radar is from the supplier, the chip is from NVIDIA, and the smart card is also bought. Speaking of things that belong to Baidu, it is that set of algorithms.

Therefore, Baidu is very passive, and it can’t control how much the car sells. Baidu can’t form a monopoly in the field of smart driving, and its algorithm can’t sell at a unique high price. For so many years, Baidu’s smart driving business has been losing money. Even many engineers in the factory finally "ran away" with the main engine factory.

Huawei started out as a communication equipment. Although it also has Internet genes, it is closer to hardware companies. Therefore, we can see that every step Huawei takes will strengthen its strength. The car is defined by its own design, the laser radar is its own, the chip is its own, the power card is its own, the motor and chassis are also its own, and it can even be sold outside.

This has formed a virtuous circle, and the cost of Huawei’s smart driving is getting lower and lower, gradually flattening the R&D investment and forming a positive cycle. The worse news is that with Huawei becoming the representative of China Zhijia, Baidu’s investment for so many years will probably be wasted.

(4) Kung Fu is angry

Baidu really started to do smart driving earlier, and invested more probability than Huawei. However, from the perspective of "output", Huawei’s achievements are even more dazzling. The average transaction price of a model developed by Huawei like this exceeds 500,000, and the monthly sales volume is nearly 20,000 units. The monthly revenue of this car alone is in the hundreds of billions, and Baidu only envies it. Not to mention that Huawei BU is independent, and it can earn tens of billions just by selling shares.

In the final analysis, consumers still look at products, not how early you do it and how much you invest. If you spend more money, you will definitely do better. How can domestic cars surpass joint venture cars? The earning power is far from perfect. The same money depends on who can spend more on the cutting edge, which better reflects the ability of the enterprise. What do you think?
