Lishui, February 1 ST (Reporter Weng Haohao) Red hot land, turning green into gold. On February 1st, Yi Lianhong, secretary of Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee, went deep into Lishui’s cultural tourism sites, industrial parks, science and technology enterprises, etc., and stressed that we should always keep in mind the earnest entrustment of the Supreme Leader General Secretary, thoroughly study and implement the spirit of the 20th Party Congress, vigorously carry forward and practice the revolutionary spirit in southwest Zhejiang, and take Xiushan Lishui as the ambition and heroism to deepen innovation, tackle tough problems in reform, open up and upgrade, start a new journey and show a new look, so as to build green mountains and green mountains and common prosperity in an all-round way.

　　At the beginning of the new year, what is the recovery trend of tourism industry in Zhejiang Province and the growth trend of tourism consumption? Yi Lianhong is very concerned about this. Yi Lianhong came to Dinghufeng and Huangdi Temple in Jinyun County, and learned that the popularity of scenic spots has become more and more prosperous and cultural activities have been rich and colorful since the Spring Festival this year. He hopes to continue to maintain the good momentum of comprehensive recovery and overall recovery of tourism, constantly meet the diversified needs of people’s cultural tourism, carefully build patriotism and excellent Chinese traditional culture education bases, and continue to promote cultural self-confidence.

　　As a famous "Shicheng", Jinyun County retains the remains of large-scale quarrying, commonly known as "Yandang". When Yi Lianhong inspected Yandang in Jinyun, he saw that abandoned mines in the past were now turning decay into magic, and new tourism formats such as Yandang study room and immersive interpretation were derived, hoping to deepen the exploration of new paths for ecological restoration and ecological value transformation of abandoned mines and vividly interpret the rich connotation of the concept of "Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets".

　　At present, what is the situation of enterprises returning to work and production? How is the progress of the activities of "visiting, investigating, serving and solving problems" carried out by all levels and departments in the province? Yi Lianhong went deep into the semiconductor industrial park and enterprises in Lishui Economic and Technological Development Zone for on-the-spot understanding. In the exhibition hall of the industrial park, he listened to the introduction of the development and innovation deepening of the new industrial platform of Lishui characteristic semiconductor, and pointed out that the development of the industrial park fully proved that as long as the pioneering spirit of "from scratch" was riveted, the old revolutionary areas could also gather and build world-class enterprises, and hoped that the industrial park would actively expand the two-way transformation channel of "two mountains" and better transform ecological advantages into economic advantages, industrial advantages and development advantages.

　　Tongchuang (Lishui) Special Materials Co., Ltd. is the largest production base of ultra-high purity tantalum materials in China. Yi Lianhong inspected the exhibition halls and production workshops of enterprises, learned about attracting high-end projects to improve the quality of economic development, and encouraged enterprises to work hard to maintain their entrepreneurial passion, enhance their innovation ability and temper their excellent work style, thus deeply helping local high-quality development. In Lishui Zhongxin Wafer Semiconductor Technology Co., Ltd., Yi Lianhong inspected the exhibition hall of the enterprise to understand the research and development and production of the main products. He said that Lishui has good mountains, good waters and good scenery, and now it has attracted good enterprises and a good future. I hope that all kinds of enterprises attracted will be safe when they come, and they will do it when they are safe. In Zhejiang Fangzheng Electric Co., Ltd., Yi Lianhong inspected the production line of the enterprise, encouraged enterprises to strengthen key core technologies, promoted the transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industry and the industrial chain, and strived to build a world-class enterprise.

　　After listening to the work report of Lishui Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, Yi Lianhong stressed that Lishui should guard the "red land" with a higher position, temper loyalty in benchmarking, learning deeply and maintaining strength, and make loyalty the most distinctive symbol; Hold fast to the "golden rice bowl" with a higher standard, firmly grasp the biggest background, the biggest signboard and the biggest advantage of the development of ecology, draw "landscape painting", read "mountain classics" and write "pastoral poetry" well, so that green becomes the most touching color; Cultivate the "growth pole" with greater efforts, identify the breakthrough of industrial transformation, create new advantages in the business environment, enhance the driving force of leapfrog development, accelerate to become the new growth pole in the new development pattern of the province, and make development the loudest voice; Pass on the "feelings of mountains and seas" with a wider mind, lay a good "economic and trade card", enhance the integration of the platform, lay a good "enclave card", enhance the closeness of cooperation, lay a good "overseas Chinese card", enhance the concentration of foreign capital, and make opening up the most surging power; Take the road of "common prosperity" at a more practical pace, polish the city brand, improve the quality of life, cultivate spiritual taste, take the continuous improvement of the quality of life of the people in the old revolutionary areas as the most important political achievement, and make happiness the most confident business card;Adhere to the "strict tone" with a stronger responsibility, muster up the ambition to break through, create an atmosphere of hard work, optimize the ecology of diligence and clean government, make diligence and honesty the most conscious fashion in Lishui, and write the Lishui chapter of the "Eight-eighth Strategy" more vivid, more connotative and more brilliant.

　　Chen Yijun accompanied the investigation and participated in the discussion.

　　　　　　 CCTV News:Today (April 19th), we will pay attention to foreign trade. In the first quarter, China’s foreign trade increased by 10.7% year-on-year. Since the third quarter of 2020, China’s foreign trade has maintained positive growth year-on-year for seven consecutive quarters. This is a very hard-won achievement.

　　　　　　 Last year, China’s total import and export volume exceeded 5 trillion and 6 trillion US dollars, setting a record high. On the basis of last year’s high base, China’s foreign trade still achieved a "steady start" in the first quarter, which reflected the strong resilience of China’s economy.　

Under the background that the external environment is becoming more complicated and uncertain, how can China’s total foreign trade import and export value achieve "double-digit" growth in the first quarter? Facing the pressure of rising raw materials and freight, how can foreign trade enterprises reduce costs? How do the government and enterprises work together to stabilize orders and production? The reporter conducted a first-line survey in Zhejiang, a major foreign trade province.

The largest foreign trade platform enterprise in Ningbo, Zhejiang, has cooperated with more than 10,000 foreign trade enterprises. On the basis of 40% growth last year, enterprise exports continued to achieve 21% growth in the first quarter of this year. Although the increase is gratifying, Ying Xiuzhen, the person in charge of the enterprise, is staring at the two shipping price lists in his hand and calculating the cost.

Also worried about the increase in freight is the person in charge of this foreign trade production enterprise. He calculated an account for the reporter: every time a garment is produced, the net profit is about $0.6, and once the sea freight is allocated to each garment, the profit will be reduced by at least half.

The increase in freight rates and the decrease in profits are difficult problems faced by many foreign trade enterprises. Zhang Xiaowen, head of the Foreign Trade Department of Zhejiang Provincial Department of Commerce, has held matchmaking meetings with foreign trade enterprises almost every week in recent months to discuss how to reduce costs.

Zhang Xiaowen, Deputy Director of Foreign Trade Development Department of Zhejiang Provincial Department of Commerce:It should be said that the sea freight is still a relatively concentrated problem reflected by enterprises in the first quarter, and it is also a very large piece of corporate profits.

Zhang Xiaowen told reporters that in addition to rising sea freight, foreign trade enterprises are also facing problems such as rising raw material prices and exchange rate fluctuations. Focusing on reducing the burden and relieving the difficulties, Zhejiang has made a policy "combination boxing" this year from the aspects of financing cost, credit insurance rate, exchange rate hedging, payment of handling fees, and improvement of sea-rail combined transport capacity to help enterprises reduce costs.

In Yiwu Small Commodity Market, these clothes, shoes and hats are being packed and will be sent from Zhoushan Port in Ningbo to Poland, Romania and other Central and Eastern European countries. Before the goods arrived in Ningbo, the port and dock procedures such as pre-release and pre-loading were completed online in advance.

Hu Feng, Deputy Section Chief of Logistics Supervision Division II of Daxie Customs under Ningbo Customs:Through the newly-built networking system, we can see that a batch of goods sent from Yiwu commodity market have entered Yiwu Port, and then we can automatically match and release these goods exported from Yiwu Port through Zhoushan Port in Ningbo.

This newly-built networking system is called "the sixth port networking platform", which makes the goods from Yiwu entering the inland port of Yiwu equal to entering Zhoushan Port in Ningbo.

Zhang Yanfeng, General Manager of Zhejiang Shuangsi Supply Chain Management Co., Ltd.:The goods haven’t arrived at Zhoushan Port in Ningbo, and the formalities will be completed. Soon and conveniently, it is equivalent to the seamless connection between these merchants in Yiwu Small Commodity Market and Zhoushan Port in Ningbo.

Yang Jinfeng, sponsored by Yiwu Customs Supervision Division II and Level IV:Save logistics cost and time for our import and export enterprises. It is estimated that the time saved will be more than one day, and the cost will be more than 100 yuan per container.

For foreign trade enterprises that are temporarily trapped due to factors such as rising freight rates, Zhejiang also requires financial institutions not to blindly cherish loans, draw loans, break loans, and suppress loans. With the implementation of various measures, the effectiveness of Zhejiang foreign trade enterprises in reducing costs has gradually emerged. Only the letter insurance policy reduces the rate, and the amount of fee reduction will reach 45 million yuan.

　　　　　　 Zhang Xiaowen, Deputy Director of Foreign Trade Development Department of Zhejiang Provincial Department of Commerce:Do a good job in policy reserve and policy reinforcement in a timely manner to help enterprises solve urgent and dangerous problems. Our ultimate goal is to reduce the cost of enterprises and raise profits, so that foreign trade enterprises can receive orders and make money.

Not only in the eastern coastal provinces, but also in the investigation and interview in Chongqing in the western region, the reporter learned that the three problems of lack of core, lack of cabinets and lack of work since last year and the four-liter problems of freight, raw materials, cost and exchange rate fluctuation have increased the burden on foreign trade enterprises. In this regard, how do local governments and enterprises respond? Continue to look at the reporter’s investigation.

When visiting a number of foreign trade enterprises in Chongqing Science City in the west, the reporter found that some small and medium-sized foreign trade enterprises are struggling to climb the slope due to the sluggish demand in the international market.

Ye Kai, head of enterprise procurement:The generator consists of many copper wires, and the current copper price has risen from 45,000 yuan and 46,000 yuan a ton to 72,000 yuan a ton now.

Qian Xun, head of enterprise logistics:Freight used to account for only a few percent of the total value of goods, but now it has risen to 20%— 30%.

Jing Li, head of the enterprise:We still have three sets of equipment that haven’t been delivered, and the customer has paid a certain amount of advance payment, but up to now, the customer can’t contact us and can’t get the payment. Now I don’t know where people are.

In view of the difficulties and pain points of enterprises, in Chongqing High-tech Zone Free Trade Bureau, a battle map covering more than 30 local key foreign trade enterprises is very eye-catching. On the display board, the current difficulties, solutions, progress and responsible persons of each enterprise can be seen at a glance.

Zhong Yajun, staff member of Chongqing High-tech Zone Reform and Development Bureau:For example, we have just received feedback from the enterprise, and he can’t receive the payment, because the problem has just been received and has not yet started (solved), so we use a red flag to indicate it. What you see in yellow means that we are coordinating relevant departments to solve the difficulties and sticking points, and green means that the problem has been solved satisfactorily.

As the battle map is on the wall, all departments send special work classes to dock according to the specific conditions of enterprises, and "one enterprise, one policy" accurately implements policies and puts responsibilities on people.

Lin Li, Director of Chongqing High-tech Zone Reform and Development Bureau:For those who make rapid progress, we will award flags to praise them, and for those who make slow progress, we will also announce the bright cards.

Through the wall chart operation, all departments actively take effective measures to solve problems for enterprises. In terms of smooth international logistics, we have increased policy support for international logistics channels such as China-Europe trains, new land and sea channels in the west and golden waterways in the Yangtze River.

Qian Xun, head of enterprise logistics:Under the coordination of the government, we transferred some goods that used to be shipped by sea to China Europe. We estimated that the logistics cost could be reduced by about 10%, which eased the pressure of rising costs for enterprises.

In view of the financial difficulties of foreign trade enterprises, the tax authorities have greatly optimized the export tax rebate process, and the average time for export tax rebate has been reduced from 7 working days to 5 working days.

　　　　　　 Lan Tingyi, Director of Export Tax Refund Service and Administration Bureau of Chongqing Taxation Bureau:Our export tax refund declaration form was cut by about one third, and the data items were reduced by about one fifth, and the average declaration efficiency was improved by 30%. In the first quarter of this year, we handled export tax rebates of more than 7 billion yuan for more than 1,800 enterprises, effectively alleviating the financial pressure on market players.　

In the survey, what the reporter felt most was that the "stable start" of China’s foreign trade in the first quarter benefited from the initiative of the majority of foreign trade market players and the opportunity to find opportunities in times of crisis, and also benefited from a series of policies and measures to help enterprises cope with difficulties. On January 1 this year, the regional comprehensive economic partnership agreement, or RCEP, came into effect. RCEP, the world’s largest free trade zone, officially set sail and became an important starting point for stabilizing foreign trade in many places this year. It is worth mentioning that through RCEP, China and Japan reached a free trade arrangement for the first time. Qingdao, Shandong Province, which is geographically close to Japan and economically integrated, seized the opportunity of RCEP, stabilized orders and expanded the market.

In Qingdao, a chemical company, Liu Kun, a foreign trade salesman, is docking new orders with Japanese customers this year. The tax rate table sent by this customer shows that after RCEP came into effect, the tariff of Japanese customers purchasing products such as sodium bicarbonate produced by their own enterprises has been directly reduced from 3.9% last year to zero.

Liu Kun, Business Manager of Qingdao Gulf Group Co., Ltd.:Our annual export value to Japan is about 60 million yuan, and after the implementation of RCEP, we can enjoy a preferential tariff of about 1.2 million yuan.

With the help of RCEP policy dividend, the confidence of enterprises in exploring RCEP member markets has greatly increased. In the first quarter of this year, the order volume of enterprises in RCEP member markets increased by more than 10%. In addition to the direct benefits brought by tax reduction, the RCEP certificate of origin also allows enterprises to enjoy many tariff reductions. In the first quarter of this year, they printed 73 RCEP certificates of origin through customs.

Wang Quan, Deputy General Manager of Qingdao Gulf Group Co., Ltd. Trade Branch:This is South Korea’s, this is Japan’s and this is Indonesia’s. Including tax rate reduction and tariff reduction, we enjoyed a total tariff preference of 603,800 yuan in the first quarter, which provided a good opportunity for the company’s development.

In the interview, the reporter also learned that after the implementation of RCEP, China’s previous free trade agreements with ASEAN, South Korea and other economies are still valid, and enterprises can choose the most favorable treatment independently. In a foreign trade enterprise engaged in the processing of corn products in Qingdao, the customs staff are explaining the preferential tariff rate to the person in charge of the enterprise in detail.

Zhao Guangying, Chief of Origin Management Section of Qingdao Customs Customs:For example, according to the RCEP agreement, the current tax rate of this lysine hydrochloride exported to South Korea is 6.1%, while according to the free trade agreement signed between China and South Korea, the tax rate is 1.3%. In this case, we will not use the RCEP rules. This yellow dextrin is exported to South Korea, and the RCEP agreement tax rate is currently 0%, while the China-South Korea FTA tax rate is 8%. It is more appropriate for us to choose RCEP for this product.

　　　　　　 According to customs data, in the first quarter of the implementation of RCEP, Chinese export enterprises applied for RCEP certificate of origin and issued 109,000 copies of declaration of origin, with a value of 37.13 billion yuan, and enjoyed a tariff reduction of 250 million yuan from the importing country. Under RCEP, the value of imported goods was 6.72 billion yuan, and the tariff reduction was 130 million yuan.

The effective implementation of RCEP has reduced the cost of foreign trade enterprises and opened up a larger market. Affected by the global COVID-19 epidemic, in recent years, cross-border e-commerce has become one of the important graspers of "buying the world and selling it". As an important overseas node of cross-border e-commerce and a new foreign trade infrastructure, the construction of overseas warehouses is also accelerating. At present, China has built more than 2,000 overseas warehouses around the world, with a total area of more than 16 million square meters, and its business scope radiates all over the world. Let’s look at China’s overseas warehouses through a vlog.

This is Los Angeles, California, USA. Behind me is China’s largest overseas warehouse in the United States — — Warehouse 1 in California, this is Esther, the manager here. Warehouse 1 in California covers an area of about 26 basketball courts, which can accommodate about 1 million items. Today, let’s see what Warehouse 1 in California looks like.

The product around me was sent from Guangdong, China. Next, let me show you how this product reached the hands of American consumers.

There are many products in Warehouse 1 in California that are very popular explosions. Just like this outdoor beach lounge chair, the sales volume in the past month has increased by 70% compared with the same period last year.

　　　　　　 We hope that more and more China-made products will be sent from here in the future and delivered to American consumers as quickly as possible.

Since the beginning of this year, a series of measures have been actively introduced from the central government to the local government to solve the difficulties in the supply chain of the foreign trade industry chain and help small and medium-sized foreign trade enterprises to prevent risks, reduce costs and increase vitality. The hard-won foreign trade report card once again shows that the fundamentals of China’s strong economic resilience and long-term improvement have not changed, and the development trend of foreign trade has not changed. At the same time, it also strongly demonstrated the great achievements China has made in coordinating epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development.

Of course, it should also be noted that China’s foreign trade still faces many difficulties and pressures while achieving a smooth start. From an international perspective, the bottleneck of global supply chain has not been alleviated, inflationary pressure has risen, monetary policies in major economies have tightened, and the growth rate of global economy and trade has declined. From the domestic point of view, local epidemics have occurred frequently recently, and the production and operation of some foreign trade enterprises have been affected. Faced with these difficulties and challenges, how can China’s foreign trade maintain stability and improve quality? Under the background of high base last year and frequent outbreaks at present, how to look at the achievements of foreign trade in the first quarter? In the future, what should we do to ensure the steady growth of foreign trade throughout the year?

Special commentator Yang Wei:It is no accident that China’s foreign trade increased by 10.7% in the first quarter. The performance of foreign trade in any quarter or year does not exist in isolation, nor is it accomplished by cramming, but thanks to China’s adherence to the general trend of opening to the outside world. For example, an important reason why ASEAN returned to China’s largest trading partner in the first quarter was that RCEP came into effect this year, and the import and export scale between China and ASEAN accounted for nearly half of the total foreign trade scale with RCEP trading partners. Tianjin Port and Qingdao Port are welcoming more cargo throughput and more tax rate options, all of which are sharing the latest dividends brought by RCEP. In recent years, economic globalization has encountered counter-current. The more counter-current strikes, the more valuable it is to adhere to the correct trend of open cooperation. When the COVID-19 epidemic began to spread around the world the year before last, there was even an international argument that globalization would end. In June of that year, China announced the overall plan for building Hainan Free Trade Port. As the Supreme Leader General Secretary said, China is firmly on the right side of history.

Yang Wei:Capacity building is embodied in many aspects. Last week, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader visited Hainan and went to see Yangpu Port. The port of registry of China Yangpu Port is being built there, and the route has achieved full coverage of Southeast Asian countries and major coastal ports in China. The overseas warehouse mentioned in the report belongs to the capacity building of new foreign trade infrastructure. In recent years, China’s foreign trade enterprises generally attach importance to their own capacity building, including production capacity, the ability to build and maintain upstream and downstream industrial chains, and the ability to digitally transform. Behind capacity building is system building. The relevant departments in Chongqing, which are involved in the wall chart operation mentioned in the report, have set up a platform to serve foreign trade enterprises based on the system construction of the Pilot Free Trade Zone. There are many requirements for system construction in the top-level design documents involving foreign trade and foreign investment adopted by the Central Committee for Deep Reform in recent years.

Yang Wei:There are effective systems and conscientious teams. Team building in the field of foreign trade includes entrepreneurs, as well as teams providing services to foreign trade enterprises. Openness is also reflected in the team building. For example, the team building of Yangpu Port is based on Hainan, facing the whole country and the world. The chief shipping officer there is from Shanghai, the chief development officer is from Shenzhen Qianhai, and the chief planner is from Singapore. The general secretary said there that more international talents are welcome to Hainan.

Yang Wei:The development of foreign trade needs partners. Since entering the new era, we have more and more deeply realized that the "circle of friends" that has withstood the test of wind and rain is stronger. In the first quarter of this year, China’s imports and exports with its major trading partners all increased, including ASEAN, the European Union, the United States, South Korea and Japan. There are several key reasons why China’s "friend circle" of foreign trade is getting stronger and stronger: First, China has more and more powerful production capacity and consumption capacity, which all parties can’t ignore; Second, China has always adhered to a high level of opening to the outside world, which has formed stable expectations for trading partners; Third, China is always willing to share the market, opportunities and development dividends with its partners. Therefore, this "friend circle" of foreign trade is getting bigger and stronger.

1905 movie network news The martial arts action film officer announced that the file will be launched on the Internet on the first day of the New Year. Wei Junzi is the chief producer, Yang Bingjia is the screenwriter and director, Du Xiaohui is the action director, and leads the starring role. The first film won a strong reputation of 9.2 points in Yun Cinema and 7.3 points in Douban, and what is even more rare is that it was praised by many audiences as "recasting the glory of martial arts films". This sequel is a surprise to join the Spring Festival file, and the original team will all return, which will present the audience with a martial arts masterpiece with excellent civil and military skills and flesh and blood. On New Year’s Day, I watched Xie Miao listen to the wind knife in his hand and keep chivalrous justice in troubled times!

Blind man guards orphan children in troubled times, and his anger rekindles and returns to the rivers and lakes.

The poster of "Arrogant 2" and "Reentry into the Jianghu" released with the final file is full of martial arts atmosphere. Xie Miao plays the blind man and Yang En plays the orphan girl Xiaoyu, such as the chivalrous man walking in the Jianghu marching in the wind. They look nervous and seem to have hidden dangers behind them. At the same time, the announcement brought the audience into a new suspense. In the first film, the well-known "listening to the wind knife" and "wrong-boned hand" returned to the rivers and lakes, and the blind man declared his return with a crisp and neat play. This time, there was an orphan girl Zhang Xiaoyu around him. In the announcement, she repeatedly begged to be blind. "I’ll give you my eyes. Can you kill them?" At the end, the two men were surrounded by powerful enemies. What was the outcome of this bloody battle? And why did the blind man finally change his principles? All suspense will only be revealed on the first day of the New Year.

Yang Enyou, who has shown good acting skills in realistic masterpieces, plays Zhang Xiaoyu, an orphan girl with a miserable fate. As the key driver of the inner change of the blind, Zhang Xiaoyu, who is lively and lovely by nature, is deeply in the pain of revenge obsession, and the fetters between them are getting deeper and deeper day by day. The audience will also get a glimpse of the inner world of a lonely knight. The blind man is blind in his eyes but not in his heart. Once his anger is rekindled, it will be an endless struggle!

The only extreme martial arts action drama in the Spring Festival file Xie Miao: Being blind makes me love it more.

The first part of "Arrogant" polished the genre to the extreme with many wonderful fighting designs, which made many audiences feel the freehand brushwork and romance of China traditional martial arts. While maintaining the chilling and fierce audio-visual style of the previous work, "Arrogant 2" is fully upgraded in action scenes and character stories, which will show high-burning fights in different time and space environments. Hard-core action drama is undoubtedly the only one in the Spring Festival file!

The persistence of the creator of "Arrogant 2" in the creation of pure oriental martial arts can be seen from the released materials. The film not only has Xie Miao’s ten-year-old wonderful performance, but also prints the background color of a chivalrous man who walks the rivers and lakes and acts bravely. As Yang Bingjia said, "chivalrous man actually chooses to do the right thing, no matter what the price he will pay." In Xie Miao’s view, "The first part shaped the’ shape’ of the blind, and the second part supplemented the’ god’ of the blind. This character made me love it more." The master’s rigorous and serious creative attitude and in-depth insight into martial arts works make this word-of-mouth martial arts IP sequel more worth looking forward to.

The movie "Arrogant 2" will be released on the Internet on New Year’s Day in 2024!

Recently, there has been a lot of talk about the Internet of Vehicles, so I simply talk about it thoroughly. The reason is that the Internet of Vehicles is highly related to automobiles, aftermarket, media, mobile Internet, big data, cloud computing, insurance and even finance, and it is a typical cross-border industry. If you want to make a living in this industry, it is impossible not to see the food chain clearly. I know not many people can see it clearly, so I dare to throw out a version first and see where your career can be in the food chain in the future.

The top layer of any industrial food chain is the government, and the Internet of Vehicles is no exception. No matter how great your business model is, you will eventually have to pay taxes and be supervised by the government.

Because there are regulations and taxes, this means that the Internet of Vehicles has policy risks, and what to do or not to do must be seriously considered. For example, after the Internet and in-vehicle systems are connected, the Internet of Vehicles needs to be connected with the physical traffic environment outside the vehicle, which is M2M (machine-to-machine) networking. This is a typical concept of the Internet of Things. Without the virtual world, most transportation infrastructure is the assets of the government or state-owned enterprises, but without this networking, the value of the Internet of Vehicles will be greatly reduced.

The development of the Internet of Vehicles cannot be separated from the official background. There should be no objection. The leaders recommended Big Data. Obviously, the Internet of Vehicles is the basic data source of big data. Besides public transportation, it can control private traffic data, which is of great help to social security and management. The government should of course support the development of the Internet of Vehicles.

Under the government, there are four camps that covet the Internet of Vehicles. The two giants are OEMs and insurance companies, and the two younger brothers are telecom operators and mobile Internet.

Car companies will play a leading role.

There are many arguments about this. For example, a friend suggested that functional mobile phone manufacturers were replaced by smart phones in those years, but Nokia and Motorola were not the leading players in the field of smart phones. After functional cars are replaced by smart cars, GM, Toyota and Volkswagen will no longer play a leading role.

This analogy is actually a concept of stealing, because the function of mobile phone is communication, and the communication function of the Internet has replaced the traditional mobile phone, so the mobile phone manufacturers who insist on voice communication have gone from bad to worse, but the function of the car is a physical mobile tool. If the Internet can realize the instantaneous movement of human body or objects like in science fiction, then it is still possible that Apple or Google will control the car network, and they may indeed be studying this problem. But in the short term, to subvert the physical mobility function of the car itself, the Internet has no chance, which is why the car networking will still be controlled by the OEM in 5-10 years.

What’s more, the R&D cycle of automobile products is too long, R&D investment is a typical asset-oriented model, and at the same time, it is very strict under government supervision, so it is almost impossible for other formats to subvert their status. For car companies, there are many things that can be done by using the Internet of Vehicles, but the advantage of being short, flat and quick is definitely the extension of car warranty. I have to write a special article on this issue. Only by knowing the individual car condition of the car owner can we give a personalized extended warranty service pricing. Once this is realized, the customer loyalty of the after-sales service of the main engine factory will be greatly increased-I can selectively provide longer warranty service for some car owners who cherish the car during the warranty period and screen high-quality users to provide them with better replacement service.

Insurance companies are another industry that can compete with the income of car companies.I wrote earlier that car networking insurance (not the so-called insurance car networking) is promising, and insurance companies are also watching how this business will land.

All kinds of OBD car networking insurance based on afterloading are also being piloted. Judging from the urgency of using the Internet of Vehicles, I think traditional insurance companies will wait and see, because this opportunity will change their own lives, but innovative investment in the insurance industry will firmly seize this opportunity and cooperate with all parties to promote the landing of Internet of Vehicles insurance.

For car networking insurance, the user data it holds will be real big data, and insurance is just a product that sticks to users, so other services extended from it are really powerful things. For example, after auto insurance claims, the main cost will be used for car body panel repair. Previously, domestic insurance companies did not affect the car body panel repair business. For example, paint, which accounts for 25% of the car body panel repair cost, was not designated by the insurance company, but in Europe, insurance companies will designate this supplier to reduce the premium expenditure. Once the car networking insurance company operates effectively, it is logical to establish a car body panel and spray chain system at the expense end, which means that it is not impossible to control the profit of the post-market.

Telecom operators are another 100 billion-level participant, but this part related to cars is still very small, but typical operators also have its urgency.

With the popularity of traffic-based communication tools such as WeChat, the analog voice communication market of telecom operators is shrinking, and traffic management is an urgent matter. The emergence of 4G will only accelerate this demand. However, business traffic is actually more about business user time. At present, mobile phone users in China have spent a lot of time on their mobile phones, and people will have psychological problems if they extend their time.

If communication between people can’t consume traffic, the traffic potential of communication between people and machines, especially between machines and machines, and between machines and the surrounding environment must be amplified. It is the KPI that telecom operators have to improve their performance, which makes telecom operators very enthusiastic about participating in the car networking. Because the entertainment demand in the living room consumes traffic, but it is static, and mobile operators may not have an advantage, and the demand for traffic in the Internet of Things of home appliances will not be too great.

According to the experience of the United States, a vehicle equipped with car networking consumes at least 1G of traffic with the surrounding environment and M2M (machine to machine) every month, which is much higher than the traffic demand of communication between people, and it is an incremental market. If this market demand can be expanded, telecom operators can still NB for many years.

With one or even several mobile phones in hand, telecom operators will definitely not miss the incremental market of car networking, and any player will definitely not be able to play car networking if he ignores the needs of telecom operators. However, from the perspective of telecom operators, there are too many "ideas" of all parties playing with the Internet of Vehicles at present. If they all attempt to obtain data from telecom operators, or even consider subverting the business of telecom operators, or simply regard telecom operators as a pipeline, then no one will want to participate in the Internet of Vehicles business of telecom operators.

Although there is BAT in the mobile Internet, it is still a rabble in the Internet of Vehicles at present, and it is difficult for anyone to climb out of the sky.

Baidu makes its own data by occupying other people’s copyright for free. This model will be hated by the surrounding ecosystem, and it is difficult to be long-term. On the vehicle side, car companies will definitely get their own car networking APP Store. Although it can be cracked, as long as car companies make rules, BAT still needs to temporarily bow to the OEM to participate. Moreover, at present, content integrators such as Gaode are also doing a lot of work, and audio providers such as Koala FM, which is used to replace radios, are also doing audio copyright integration. At present, the advantages of BAT in the car networking are only reliable by WeChat. For example, some car companies are thinking about integrating WeChat into the buttons on the steering wheel.

The problem is that the development cycle of the vehicle is 3-5 years, and it is not easy for WeChat to be popular for 3-5 years. When the product comes out, WeChat is no longer a strong demand, how can this automobile product find a buyer? I will talk about the issue of the mobile Internet entering the ecosystem of the Internet of Vehicles separately. Simply put, most people who play the mobile Internet don’t know anything about cars at present. If vehicles are simply regarded as mobile phones, this nonsense logic will inevitably be abandoned by this traditional industry. Tesla didn’t highlight its huge touch screen and car networking service in the product promotion before spontaneous combustion several times. It still hopes that the upstarts of the Internet will worship its vehicle performance and design.

Many friends told me that there must be a aftermarket to participate in the car networking. This is my major. I know that all kinds of car networking must be realized by various O2O including aftermarket, butIt is a waste of time to talk about O2O before the ecosystem of the Internet of Vehicles itself is established.No system integrator can play O2O first when there is no mature business model for O2O based on PC and mobile terminal. After the professional faction of the Internet of Vehicles establishes the basic ecosystem of the Internet of Vehicles, the entertainment faction of the Internet of Vehicles can go on stage to let the owners stick to it, and then all kinds of O2O will go on stage to calculate the owners’ wallets. Such a business logic is more like our real world! Welcome to the world of car networking!

　

(Here is Zhu Weihua’s observation and thinking about cars, aftermarket, car networking, internet and media. WeChat, Weibo and news client search for "Zhu Weihua" can all follow me.)

　　　　With the development of cars towards low fuel consumption, small emissions and multi-function, small MPV has become the object of more and more users’ choice. Among all kinds of car products, finding a cost-effective car is as confusing as choosing beautiful candy in a department store. This time, we selected four models with good reputation in the small MPV market, namely Nissan Converse, FAW Senya M80, Landwind Fashion and Honda Fit. Let’s see which one is more cost-effective.

　　　　Nissan converse: lively and smart

　　　　Nissan converse has learned some experience from Nissan Junyi MPV in design, with a body length of 4178 mm. The sitting posture of the front row is similar to that of a car, the front windshield is wider, and the interior inherits the characteristics of Nissan’s car design. The components are arranged compactly in the car body, but they are cramped in the lateral space. In terms of the use of space, the backrest of the rear seat of Converse can be laid down according to the 4/6 split type, and its loading space can be expanded to a maximum of 1,548 liters, which greatly improves the practicability of the car load.

　　　　In terms of power, Converse uses a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine with code name HR16DE, with a maximum power of 77 kW/5,200 rpm and a maximum torque of 150 N.m/4,400 rpm. The cylinder head and cylinder block are made of all-aluminum materials. HR16DE is characterized by quietness, fuel economy and good power. When accelerating, the engine is relatively active. Although there is no pleasant push feeling, the performance of the 4-speed automatic transmission is much smoother than expected. The deficiency is the lack of grip and high-speed stability.

　　　　FAW Senya M80: X-teams! !

　　　　The second appearance is FAW Jilin Senya M80. Although it has entered the market for a short time, the strength of Senya M80 can not be underestimated by virtue of the quality of FAW and the selling point of its models. Its first concept of "X-TEAMS" is to put a heavy "bomb" into the small MPV market.

　　　　Because Senya’s English is XENIA, X stands for brand, but at the same time it also stands for the meaning of possibility, breakthrough and transcendence without limit.

　　　　"T" stands for Toyota, one of the biggest selling points of Sunya M80, that is, Toyota’s innovative multifunctional global strategic vehicle platform, which is a design platform tailored for economical multifunctional urban vehicles. Thanks to the Toyota platform, the Sunya M80 is superior in handling, stability and driving experience. In the sales list of small MPV in 2010, M80 won the title of champion.

　　　　"E" is the abbreviation of Engine, which represents the core of Sunya M80-imported DVVT engine. The characteristic of DVVT (Dynamic Variable Valve Timing) is that it can adjust the torque and change the fuel saving and exhaust cleanliness according to the power required by the vehicle, so as to maximize the potential of the engine. In actual driving, the maximum power of M80 engine is 80KW and the maximum torque is 142N·m, which makes it start smoothly, accelerate sensitively, and push back obviously after stepping on the accelerator deeply, which is why the performance of M80 is not inferior to that of 1.5L displacement products.

　　　　"A" is taken from the English Auto, which stands for the imported automatic gearbox used in the Senya series. Although the M80 is a manual gearbox, another elite automatic gearbox is unique at this price.

　　　　With the golden combination of Toyota platform and imported engine. "M" (Multifunction) represents the multi-functional characteristics of the car. For example, the Sunya M80 looks small from the outside, but the interior space has surprised many users. The size of the whole car is 4120 x 1640 x 1695 mm. Due to the design of "four wheels and four corners", the use of space is very "in place". With the combined design of 5 seats /7 seats inside, the space inside the car immediately increases when the rear seats are put down, which avoids the situation that dead corners occupy space in the previous box moving and freight transportation. Surprisingly, as many as 23 storage spaces in the M80, together with the trunk, constitute a flowing "space" of the Sunya M80.

　　　　In order to achieve the multi-purpose of commercial and passenger use, Sunya M80 has a ground clearance as high as 200mm, which makes M80 have unparalleled high passability, whether in potholes or rugged mountain roads. The minimum turning radius is 4.7m, which is particularly prominent when passing through complex roads and crowded traffic.

　　　　Finally, "S" stands for Safety. For the means of transportation, the safety of the car can never be ignored. After the rigorous crash test, the comprehensive index of Sunya M80 is higher than that of the same class car products, which is attributed to the material of M80 body, good platform and manufacturing technology.

　　　　Continental style: European style

　　　　Although it is the first MPV of Landwind (Chang ‘an), Landwind Fashion has some European style in vehicle design, but not many "China characteristics". The whole vehicle length of Fashion is 4410mm, and the wheelbase of 2710mm reaches the level of medium and large cars. The height of 1640mm is much higher than that of ordinary cars, but because of the good proportion of the whole car, it is not particularly high, showing a little image of "sedan MPV".

　　　　In terms of space arrangement, fashion adopts three rows of seats, with higher front seats and good view; There is plenty of space in the middle row, even passengers with a height of 185cm will not feel cramped; The seats in the back two rows can be adjusted vertically, so it has obvious advantages in carrying people, but the flexibility of the overall space is average. The storage space in the car is narrower than that in ordinary cars, and there are only one or two convenient storage compartments around the driver’s seat.

　　　　In terms of power, Fashion adopts the 1.6-liter single overhead camshaft engine independently developed by Changan. In actual driving, the power output of the engine is very linear, which is good for daily driving. But once the car is "weddings", it is very difficult for the car to drive, especially on the climbing section.

　　　　Honda Fit: Car Representative

　　　　Honda Fit has always been outstanding in small cars. Its pleasing appearance and brand awareness have captured the hearts of many young users. This comparison starts with the use space of vehicles and engine control.

　　　　In the use of space, the body size of Fit is 3900*1695*1525mm, which is higher in length, width and height than the old model. However, due to the size of the body and the design of the internal space, the adjustment of the rear seat of Fit is limited. If the passenger is more than 180cm in height, the space of legs and head is cramped.

　　　　From the core technology, Fit is equipped with a 1.5-liter i-VTEC engine. Its maximum power is 88km/6600rpm and maximum torque is 145 N m. In actual driving, in order to ensure certain comfort, the soft suspension lacks sufficient support in the limit state; The response of the throttle is slightly delayed when driving fiercely. Although it is easy to control, the overall sportiness is slightly poor.

　　　　Summary:In the comparison of the space and power control of four small MPVs, all four cars try to create a multi-functional seating space for the owners, such as the 4/6 ratio of the back backrest of converse; Lufeng’s three-row seat design: Fit considers the space of the rear passengers, but there is no doubt that the new Sunya M80 starts with the concept of X-TEAMS, with the design of Toyota platform and four wheels and four corners in the car, which is more reasonable in handling, driving experience and space arrangement. The power and handling of the four MPVs have their own strengths. Although the displacement is close, the power performance of Converse, Landwind and Fit is inferior to that of Senya M80 when climbing with full load, which may be the power of M80 Toyota platform +DVVT combination. Of course, users must have different opinions on the choice of models. However, when it comes to cost performance, the price of Sunya M80 is less than 60,000 yuan, which really hits similar products. After all, this is an era, and sometimes cost performance is king!

　　First, the background and drafting process of the regulations

　　In recent years, single-use prepaid cards have been widely used in people’s daily life, involving education and training, beauty salons, commercial retail, accommodation and catering, sports and fitness, culture and entertainment, etc., which has played a certain role in facilitating payment, promoting consumption and prospering the market. At the same time, with the increasing number of card issuance, violations of consumers’ legitimate rights and interests occur frequently, which has become the focus of social attention.

　　According to statistics, in 2020, there were 170,000 complaints about the consumption of single-use prepaid cards in the city, including 120,000 in the field of education and training (77,000 in vocational skills training and 27,000 in extracurricular tutoring), and the number of complaints was 10 times that of 2019; There are 50,000 sports, fitness, beauty salons and other industries, and the number of complaints is six times that of 2019.

Recently, some netizens posted a Changan Mazda EZ-6 car purchase invoice. The invoice shows that the purchased model is an EZ-6 pure electric BEV model, priced at 221,800 yuan. This news immediately triggered widespread discussion in the automotive circle. As the first new energy product under Changan Mazda, the EZ-6 is not only the only model that provides range extension power in the joint venture B-class car market, but its pricing exposure has set off a shock in the market.

First of all, we need to verify the authenticity of this invoice. According to the pictures released, the invoice date of this car purchase invoice is August 16, which is more than a month earlier than the pre-sale time of EZ-6 (September 28). Considering that car companies usually have a complete set of time advancement processes, for a joint venture car company like Changan Mazda, it is not surprising that China and Japan jointly decided to agree on the price 2 months in advance. In addition, although sensitive information such as invoice codes are coded, from the information of the invoice party and the invoice seal of Changan Mazda Automobile Co., Ltd., the invoice is very likely to be true, and the invoice itself is very reliable. From this, it is inferred that the selling price shown on the invoice is most likely the real price of the EZ-6.

In fact, since the EZ-6 made its debut at the 2024 Beijing Auto Show, it has quickly become the focus of the joint venture new energy field. On the one hand, its styling design stands at the forefront of the joint venture new energy field, attracting countless eyeballs; on the other hand, as the only model in the joint venture B-class car market to provide extended range power options, it fills the gap in the joint venture new energy in the field of extended range technology.

Specifically, the EZ-6 can be said to have made great efforts in design and configuration. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the EZ-6 are 4921/1890/1485mm, the wheelbase is 2895mm, and the frameless door and hatchback design are used. These designs not only make it more in line with the modern aesthetic of new energy vehicles, but also retain the classic design elements of Mazda, such as through taillights and round gun downlights on both sides. For the power layout, the EZ-6 also has both pure electric and extended range options, both of which use rear-drive layout. The power parameters of the pure electric version are 190kW, and the extended range version also uses a 1.5-liter range extender, which has the same power parameters. In terms of battery life, the range of pure electric models is divided into 480km and 600km according to the different battery capacity; the extended range vehicle can achieve a long range of more than 1300km by charging and adding a tank of fuel.

In terms of intelligent configuration, the EZ-6 is not to be outdone. The model is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon third-generation 8155 chip, a 14.6-inch floating center control screen, a full LCD instrument panel and an AR-HUD head-up display, with 360-degree panoramic images and 180-degree panoramic chassis monitoring. In addition, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assistance, automatic parking and other functions, as well as rare Sony audio, 64-color ambient lights and zero-gravity seats in the same level, are its hardcore selling points.

From a pricing point of view, the price of the EZ-6 is indeed very competitive. As a joint venture mid-range pure electric sedan, compared to Tesla Model 3, BMW i3 and other models priced at about 300,000 yuan, as well as the Volkswagen ID.7 priced from 227,700 yuan, the price of the EZ-6 pure electric version of 221,800 yuan is very affordable. Moreover, from the known configuration, the EZ-6 has greatly led the same level of models in terms of intelligence and comfort.

Considering Mazda’s past pricing strategy, it is expected that the final price range of the EZ-6 will be between 18-240,000 yuan.
