On the flow of money: trillion yuan of economic funds flow to the field of scientific and technological innovation.

  CCTV News:The Central Economic Work Conference made it clear that in 2023, we should adhere to the principle of stability and strive for progress while maintaining stability, continue to implement a proactive fiscal policy and a prudent monetary policy, intensify macro-policy regulation and control, strengthen coordination and cooperation of various policies, and form a joint force to promote high-quality development.

  To promote high-quality development, policies and funds are indispensable. Where funds flow to sufficient places, it is often where economic activities are more active. What funds are there in the market? Where did all these funds flow?

  In 2022, where did the national financial funds focus? The data shows that in the first 10 months of this year, the national general public budget expenditure exceeded 20 trillion yuan, of which about 65% was invested in people’s livelihood areas such as education, social security and employment.

  In these areas of people’s livelihood, which area of national investment has the fastest growth rate? Science and technology are definitely on the list. In the first ten months, the expenditure on science and technology exceeded 700 billion yuan, up 8.8% year-on-year, and the growth rate was second only to health. This year, the expenditure budget for basic research alone reached 123.2 billion yuan, an increase of 62.7 billion yuan over 2017, more than doubling.

  Financial strength, strong currency. In order to guide financial institutions to increase their support for scientific and technological innovation, this year, the People’s Bank of China created a second loan for scientific and technological innovation for the first time, with a scale of 200 billion yuan.

  While the state supports it, market forces are also contributing to scientific and technological innovation. According to the data, from January 1st to November 30th this year, there were 248 companies listed on the Growth Enterprise Market and science and technology innovation board, and the initial raised funds approached 400 billion yuan (397.387 billion yuan), accounting for 66.7% and 81.1% of the initial listed companies in the same period respectively. The capital market has become one of the important sources of funds for science and technology enterprises.

  Roughly speaking, trillion yuan of funds have flowed to the field of scientific and technological innovation. What’s the effect? According to the 2022 Global Innovation Index Report released by the World Intellectual Property Organization, China’s ranking has steadily improved for ten consecutive years, ranking 11th, up 23 places from 2012.

No homework for 34 years! Three principals relay "efficient classroom"

  Is there a contradiction between not leaving homework and improving grades? The Fifth Primary School of Shenyang Railway has given an almost perfect answer with 34 years’ practice.

  When many parents are anxious to accompany their children to do homework after class, the three principals of this primary school insist on not leaving written homework for 34 years, and carry out the experiment of happy education reform, so that students can effectively integrate into learning under the guidance of interest and reduce the burden and improve the quality under the concept of happy education.

  Ask for quality in a 40-minute class

  "Only teachers who don’t understand, no children who can’t learn. There are so many knowledge points that there is no need to leave homework and practice repeatedly. " Zhang Xiujin, the old headmaster, said.

  Railway five primary schools do not leave written homework, which originated in 1984. At that time, the students had a heavy burden, so Zhang Xiujin, then the principal, decided to reduce the burden in the whole school and started a pilot class first. The method is simple: be effective in the classroom, increase the interaction between teachers and students, and mobilize the enthusiasm of students. After half a year, the results of the pilot class are significantly higher than those of other classes. Since then, no homework has been left in the whole school from grade one to grade six.

  "Efficient classroom" is a high-frequency word mentioned by teachers in the interview. "The sea tactics is a misunderstanding. Teachers should concentrate the most essential knowledge points in the classroom so that students can draw inferences from one another." Yu Ying, the current principal, said that teachers should ensure that all the knowledge learned by students in every class, every day and every stage can be absorbed and digested in the classroom. This is called the "three cleanups" system.

  In order to realize the "Three Clearances", in Railway No.5 Primary School, teachers spend a lot of energy on preparing lessons and teaching exchanges to ensure the high quality of teaching. After Yu Miao, a fifth-grade teacher, came to Railway No.5 Primary School, all school leaders attended the class collectively, giving her suggestions and guiding the improvement of classroom teaching. In 2017, she won the title of senior Chinese subject in the "Evaluation of Good Classroom Teaching in Heping District".

  In order to improve students’ ability to study efficiently, the school offers a 15-minute mini-training course every afternoon. From writing and memorizing in a limited time in junior grades to arranging and communicating mind maps in senior grades, students’ abilities of memorizing, listening and summarizing are greatly improved, and their thinking quality is greatly improved.

  In the past 34 years, the tradition of not leaving written homework has been preserved. For Yu Ying, the current principal, the pressure to insist on not leaving homework has only increased over the years: although the junior high school has been cancelled, the pressure to enter a higher school has moved forward, parents have higher expectations for their children, and the difficulty of various exams has also been continuously improved. Can the trick of not leaving homework still be used?

  "As long as the educational concept is correct and you have the determination to stick to it, ‘ Independent and efficient ’ If the classroom teaching is realized, there is no need for homework. " Yu Ying, who has been a teacher for 26 years since she joined the work, explored the educational idea that "students are the future", and made the school’s educational strategy and action plan with cultivating students’ core literacy and providing appropriate education for children as the core concept.

  Today, there are 67 classes and more than 3,100 students in three campuses of Railway Five Primary Schools, and all of them still insist on leaving no written homework.

  What do students do after school?

  There is no written homework after class. What do students do when they go home? And the school doesn’t care at all

  After school, Shi Diance, a fifth and second grader of the railway, did not go home directly, but once again devoted himself to his favorite ice hockey training ground. He has been practicing ice hockey for nearly a year, and he has performed brilliantly in the Liaoning Ice Hockey League. After two hours of training, he turned on the TV at home first, not to watch cartoons, but to watch the news on the hour. Before going to bed, he watched the extracurricular book Magic School Bus recommended by the head teacher for a while.

  In Railway No.5 Primary School, there is no unified written homework, but every child will arrange his life after school according to his own interests and specialties: reading novels, doing handicrafts, practicing calligraphy, and dancing street dance … …

  According to reports, in order to enrich students’ extracurricular activities, Railway Five Primary Schools recommend "books with words" and "books without words". "Books with characters" are traditional books. By recommending books regularly, offering one-hour reading class every week, reading exchange once a month and reading festival once a semester, students’ ability and quality of lifelong reading are cultivated. "Wordless book" is news, which guides students to read newspapers, listen to the radio and pay attention to online news every day, and carries out students’ independent "broadcast", "comment" and "debate" news every morning.

  The school has set up 20 compulsory courses such as intelligent robot, Orff music and digital art, and more than 60 elective clubs such as science and technology, art, fitness, reading club and English club to help children locate themselves and find their own interests. At the same time, further enrich students’ life at school and after class, and prevent them from drowning in the sea of books and mountains.

  Happy education makes students enjoy it endlessly.

  "Everyday Dad", a fourth-grade parent of the fifth grade of the railway, said in the opening message to all parents of freshmen in 2016: "The school is characterized by not leaving homework, reading and broadcasting news. With these characteristics, children’s knowledge and learning efficiency will become unusual."

  Li Jiaxi, a fourth-grade student, had an average academic record, and sometimes she showed hyperactivity, inattention and low learning efficiency in class. Since joining the school maker space club for one year, he has become a core member of the study group and a small star of science and technology. The innovative works he led the team members to study together — — "Portable One-stop Mobile Phone Companion" has been shortlisted for the 2018 Shenyang Youth Science and Technology Innovation Competition.

  Wang Hongliang, a graduate of the school in 2013, is now studying in Liaoning Experimental Middle School. In 2016, he was ranked third in the city with a score of 744 (out of 760) in the senior high school entrance examination. He benefited a lot from his study experience in Railway No.5 Primary School.

  "High school is very stressful and hard. Whenever I encounter difficulties, I always think of the experience of primary school. A large number of books read at that time are still fresh in my memory until now; Watching the news broadcast every morning makes me develop the habit of paying attention to current affairs and politics, which is of great help to the study of politics and other subjects. " Wang Hongliang said, "What impressed me the most was the robot community, which cultivated my hands-on, innovation, spatial thinking and other abilities. Sometimes I don’t need to draw pictures to solve solid geometry problems, so I can see the form built by Lego in primary schools … … The education of Tiewu contains too many things that are useful for growth. It was only when I was in junior high school and high school that I slowly revealed it and let me enjoy it endlessly. "

  Along the way, doubts and doubts were heard in not fade away. However, the five primary schools of the Railway did not change their minds, persisted in exploring new measures for running a happy education, and constantly introduced new curriculum systems such as micro-courses, science and technology courses, research and practice courses, and handed over beautiful transcripts: the quality monitoring of students’ subjects ranked among the best in the whole region, and the achievements in Chinese and English subjects ranked third and fourth among 55 primary schools in the experimental area of the city. In recent five years, they won hundreds of honors in science, technology, art and sports at or above the provincial level.

  President Yu Ying said: "As basic educators, we will continue to inherit and carry forward the ideological essence of pleasant education, actively explore new fields under the conditions of information technology reform, start with students’ learning ability and study habits, and focus on students’ infinite possibilities in the future to improve the quality of life in childhood."

  Cctv newsRecently, the Department of Basic Education of the Ministry of Education introduced the operation and application of the national smart education platform for primary and secondary schools.

  The Ministry of Education revised and upgraded the "National Smart Education Platform for Primary and Secondary Schools" on the basis of the original "National Network Cloud Platform for Primary and Secondary Schools", which was put into trial operation on March 1 and has been officially launched. Since the trial operation of the platform, it has effectively supported the "double reduction" work and the "suspension of classes during the epidemic".

  Construction of platform resources

  Based on the original two resource sections of thematic education and curriculum teaching, the platform has added four new sections, including after-school service, teacher training, family education and practical experience in teaching reform, with a total of 36 secondary columns. The total amount of existing resources reached 28,052, with 17,300 new resources, an increase of 1.6 times.

  The platform has a wide range of resources, focusing on improving students’ comprehensive quality and promoting the all-round development and healthy growth of morality, intelligence, physique, beauty and labor. It has specially set up columns such as party history study, patriotism, moral education, popular science education, ecological civilization, physical exercise, culture and art, and labor education. Efforts have been made to support major tasks such as "double reduction" and epidemic prevention and control, and special sections have been set up for homework, after-school service, subject training, "double reduction" experience and epidemic prevention knowledge, life and safety, mental health, and psychological assistance hotlines have also been provided; Efforts should be made to realize the whole process of educating people in and out of class.

  Since March 14th, the epidemic situation in COVID-19 has occurred in many places, and primary and secondary schools in some areas have made full use of this platform to ensure "no classes to stop studying". The overall daily average number of visitors to the platform has increased from about 12.91 million in the first two weeks of March to more than 46.19 million in the second two weeks, with the increase of more than 6.5 times in Liaoning, Jilin, Fujian, Shandong and other provinces with serious epidemics, effectively serving the overall situation of epidemic prevention and control and "no classes to stop studying".

Grasp the connotation of the modernization era of military theory

Quote


The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out that the modernization of military theory, military organization, military personnel and weapons and equipment should be promoted in an all-round way. The first position of the modernization of military theory in the "four modernizations" has been clarified, which has given our army a new connotation of the times and injected a strong impetus into the research and innovation of military theory. Analyzing the background of the modernization of military theory and clearly grasping its main characteristics and development trend will help us deepen the research and exploration of the modernization of military theory and vigorously promote the modernization of national defense and the army.


The background of modernization of military theory


To study the laws and characteristics of modernization of military theory, we should first analyze the background and requirements of modernization of military theory.


Judging from the development track of contemporary international military theory, the modernization of military theory is accompanied by the changes of strategic environment, military technology and war form. After World War II, with the formation of the Cold War pattern, superpowers sought nuclear hegemony, nuclear balance and nuclear deterrence, resulting in a military theory of nuclear deterrence based on "balance of terror". With the outbreak of the Middle East War and the Iran-Iraq War, local war has become a new form of war, and the theory of limited war and special war represents new achievements in the modernization of military theory. In the late 20th century, the fourth military revolution, represented by information technology, rose, and the information-based war stepped onto the historical stage. The war theory in the information age became the new theme of modern military theory.


In recent years, with the rapid development and application of new technologies such as big data, cloud computing and artificial intelligence, the war form has been accelerated to information and intelligence. In this context, the space, field and dimension of military activities are expanding day by day, which is more closely related to politics, economy, culture and law. In particular, the requirements of systematization, quantification and engineering of military theory are getting higher and higher. Military theory is becoming a comprehensive theory that permeates many disciplines such as social science, natural science and technical science, which objectively requires the internal development of military theory to be more systematic and scientific.


To this end, this paper tries to define the modernization of military theory as follows: using the outstanding achievements in politics, military affairs, science and technology, education, management and culture created by the contemporary world, through innovation, the country’s understanding and knowledge system of national defense and army building will reach the contemporary advanced level, leading the development of military organizational form, military personnel and weapons and equipment modernization level and its process. This definition mainly includes four meanings: first, the modernization of military theory is the goal to be achieved and the development process; Second, the soul of modernization of military theory is innovation; Third, to realize the modernization of military theory, we should make extensive use of the achievements of contemporary advanced civilization; Fourthly, the leading position and role of modernization of military theory in the modernization of the army are clarified.


Main characteristics of modernization of military theory


The magnificent military practice in contemporary times has bred fertile ground for the modernization of military theory, and the theoretical exploration of a hundred schools of thought has constructed the magnificent content of modern military theory system. From the interaction between theory and practice, we can preliminarily see the main characteristics of modernization of military theory.


The advance of thinking. The advance of thinking has the logical driving force of anticipating and opening up ideas in concept discovery, concept construction and system design, which reflects the core requirements of military theoretical innovation and embodies the distinctive indicators of military theoretical modernization. Judging from the innovative practice of contemporary military theory, military reform is not only a leap in military technology, the upgrading of weapons and equipment, but more importantly, the forward-looking driving and leading of thinking. The characteristics of advanced thinking are as follows: strong crisis concept, with the mission of defending national sovereignty and national security interests, judging the international strategic environment situation, grasping the overall situation of military threats, and planning the future military needs forward-looking; Foresight and insight, profoundly grasp the laws and characteristics of modern warfare, predict the future war form, combat style and military technology development direction, and seize the thinking highland of "winning first and then seeking war"; Bravely transcend ideas, break through traditional thinking habits and stereotypes, establish systematic thinking, data thinking and algorithm thinking, explore new concepts of operations, design new winning mechanisms, and form a new path to enhance combat effectiveness.


The integrity of the system. Military theory is a systematic rational understanding and knowledge system of military issues. The integrity of its system and the systematization of its content are its inherent and inevitable requirements, and it also constitutes one of the main characteristics of the modernization of military theory. For example, Russia pays close attention to the systematicness of military theory, and successively published two editions of Military Theory of the Russian Federation in 2010 and 2014, which constitute a complete military theory system of the Russian army in the 21st century. Over the years, our army has actively constructed a systematic and complete military theory. According to the second edition of China Military Encyclopedia, our army has formed a military theoretical system consisting of 15 knowledge categories, including military thought, political work, military logistics and military equipment. With the progress of science and technology and the development of war practice, the scope of military theory will continue to expand, and the content will be more perfect and systematic.


The innovation of the method. Engels pointed out that the old methods cannot be used to achieve new results in military art. Only by creating new and more powerful means can we achieve new and greater results. Therefore, we should pay attention to relying on the application of new methods and means to greatly improve the efficiency and scientificity of military theoretical research. At the beginning of the 20th century, Lanchester, an Englishman, used the method of mathematical analysis to study combat problems for the first time, which initiated the quantitative analysis of military theory research. In World War II, the military operational research based on weapon effectiveness analysis brought the military theoretical research into the modern scientific level. At present, with the development of emerging technologies, big data, cloud computing and artificial intelligence will provide more innovative means and methods for military theoretical research. We should pay attention to promoting military theoretical research more scientifically and efficiently with these new methods.


The popularization of the results. Contemporary military theory is full of strong activity and practicality, and it has become the development direction of military theory modernization to apply the latest theoretical achievements to combat operations, equipment construction, military training and college education as soon as possible. The way for foreign troops to reach a consensus is to speed up the generation of combat effectiveness, quickly "materialize" new achievements in military theory into military regulations and planning plans, and promote the transformation and application of achievements at multiple levels and in multiple fields. According to the process of "operational concept-capability requirement-technical support", the military theory will be transformed into equipment documents to plan the future development of weapons and equipment; According to the new requirements of the combat mission and task in the new military theory and the combat capability of the troops, the structure of the combat forces of the troops is adjusted and the system establishment is optimized; Standardize military theory into operational rules and training programs to guide military training and college teaching; Through the combat laboratory, the evolution of new military theory is refined into operational scenarios and operational plans, which are applied to combat operations.


Development trend of modernization of military theory


In the 21st century, with the in-depth development of military reform, countries all over the world attach great importance to the leading role of military theory on the basis of strengthening the role of military technology in promoting the modernization of the army. They have adjusted their military strategies in light of their own development reality and put forward new military ideas and theories, which have continuously injected vitality into the development of military equipment, the establishment system of the army and the training of military personnel, and accelerated the modernization process of military theory, showing new characteristics and trends of the times.


Design war: a new space for the modernization of military theory. The emergence of new technology groups with network technology, combat simulation technology and artificial intelligence technology as the core has produced advanced combat experiment theories and methods, opened up new ideas and new fields for military theoretical research, provided conditions and possibilities for military theoretical research reform, and designed wars are becoming a reality. Through the combat laboratory, we can not only test the adaptability and operability of the existing military theories, but also verify the rationality and effectiveness of the operational regulations, evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of the operational plan, and more importantly, design future wars. With the help of the experimental environment of approximate actual combat, a new operational concept is put forward, and the confrontation is simulated repeatedly, resulting in a virtual battle example, and a new operational theory is deduced and refined. In fact, the effect of these laboratories in war simulation has also been fully confirmed. Looking at several important local wars in the 20th century, all of them were simulated in the laboratory first, and then carried out operations, which realized that "the war started in the laboratory" and showed the new direction of modernization of military theory.


Integration of science and technology: opening up a new mission of military theory modernization. With the development of information warfare practice and the emergence of intelligent warfare, the trend of interaction and integration between military theory and science and technology is becoming more and more obvious. First of all, the development of military theory leads the way and provides power for military technology. New operational concepts and theories of western military powers emerge one after another, which breeds a series of new military demands and stimulates new functions and indicators of military technology development. Secondly, the innovation and breakthrough of military technology gave birth to new operational theories. Nuclear technology produces the theory of nuclear shock and awe, guidance technology produces the theory of precision strike, and information technology produces the theory of information warfare. At present, big data, cloud computing and artificial intelligence technologies are developing rapidly, and intelligent wars are coming to us. Thirdly, the penetration, intersection and synthesis of military theory and military technology are deepening day by day. In the process of the development of military theory and technology to detailed professional classification, the integration of military theory and other sciences is further highlighted, and a huge and systematic military science system is constructed.


Combining research with war: consolidating the foundation of modernization of military theory. Only when military theory is rooted in the fertile soil of military practice can it fully stimulate vitality and maintain vigorous vitality. On the one hand, we attach importance to the test of military theory in actual combat. After the baptism of the Syrian-Israeli Bekaa Valley War, the British Amama War and the Gulf War, the theory of electronic warfare has evolved into a brand-new information warfare theory. On the other hand, strengthen military theory to be tested in experiments. In the process of the formation of the "Rapid Decisive Combat Theory" of the US military, the concept of "Future Joint Combat Concept" was first formulated by the Joint Forces Command, and then three versions of the "Rapid Decisive Combat Concept" document were formed by the simulation experiment of the future joint laboratory, which was successfully applied to the Iraq war.


Open communication: opening the international vision of modernization of military theory. Modern military activities have increasingly crossed national boundaries, and military diplomacy has become more and more frequent. On the one hand, the development of military theory requires not only strengthening the exchanges between services and arms, but also facing the society, actively opening to the society, deepening the exchanges between the military and the land, and absorbing and making full use of the achievements in social science, natural science and engineering technology in time. The foreign military attaches great importance to the support and training of non-governmental advisory bodies, and many major military theoretical studies have been undertaken by them, which has brought about important military benefits. On the other hand, the development of military theory should face the world, learn from others’ strengths and make up for their own shortcomings, which has become the consensus of all countries to strengthen the modernization of military theory. Through international military art conference, international military exercises, joint peacekeeping operations, military visits and other activities, we can directly or indirectly grasp the theoretical direction of foreign troops, improve the starting point of theoretical research, and promote the development of military theory to the world and the future.

249,800 cases, M7, a newly asked sector, went public, which changed a bit.

On the afternoon of September 12th, the new M7 from AITO was officially launched and delivered.

Yu Chengdong said that the new model has been fully upgraded with an investment of 750 million yuan, with stronger body, chassis and performance, brand-new space design and layout, and smarter driving system and cockpit.

The new M7 in Wenjie has launched five models, with the price range of RMB249,800 to RMB329,800. This price adjustment has lowered M7 by 40,000 yuan compared with the price reduction in January. The starting price of the new car is 70 thousand yuan lower than the previous version.

The appearance of the new M7 continues the design features of the previous generation, especially the front part, which adopts a brand-new low wind resistance design. After a small adjustment, the front face presents a three-layer air intake grille design, which makes the whole front face look more layered.

In addition, the high-profile model of the five-seat version of the M7 is also equipped with a laser radar, and the HUAWEI ADS 2.0 advanced intelligent driving system is applied, which further improves the driving experience and safety performance.

As a medium and large SUV, the new M7 has a body size of 5020mm (length) x 1945mm (width) x 1760mm (height) and a wheelbase of 2820mm. In addition to fine-tuning the height of the car body, other aspects are completely consistent with the current models.

The interior style of the new M7 keeps a minimalist design, and the steering wheel color is fine-tuned to keep consistent with the overall interior color. Equipped with a 10.25-inch curved LCD instrument panel and a 15.6-inch central control panel, the center console and door panel are made of high-quality micro-velvet material, and the overall material is upgraded to a higher level, which enhances the quality of the interior.

HarmonyOS Intelligent Cockpit 3.0 is also a highlight of the new M7. Brand-new theme design, adding a variety of exquisite screen savers, adding a lot of color to the interior space. With the addition of the super desktop function, the connection of mobile terminal applications in HarmonyOS becomes more convenient, and the user’s mobile phone interconnection experience is improved.

Even in the case of poor signal, Xiaoyi Voice Assistant can provide offline voice navigation function, which ensures a convenient use experience in all situations.

The high-end version is equipped with HUAWEI ADS 2.0 advanced intelligent driving system, which is equipped with overhead lidar, 3 millimeter-wave radars, 11 high-definition visual perception cameras and 12 ultrasonic radars with 27 sensing hardware.

Through these super hardware configurations, the M7 can realize intelligent driving on expressways and urban areas without relying on high-precision maps. It is expected that the NCA in the urban area will be "open all over the country" in December this year.

In addition, the system has realized the omnidirectional and lateral anti-collision ability, and the maximum braking speed of AEB (automatic emergency braking) has increased to 90 km/h. In addition, the system also supports parking service and ultra-narrow parking spaces, which provides more convenience for drivers.

The new M7 has undergone all-round body structure and safety upgrade, and adopted submarine-grade high-strength steel and CBS composite body material to realize the cage body design. The submarine-grade hot-formed steel accounts for 24.4% of the whole vehicle, which can bear 17 tons per square centimeter.

The proportion of high-strength steel and aluminum alloy in the whole vehicle is as high as 80.6%. These upgrading measures have greatly improved the structural safety of the car body and provided higher safety guarantee for passengers.

The five-seat version of the new M7 fits the hot spot in the market, with ample space in the second row, and the seat comfort is further improved. Ventilation, heating and massage functions have become standard for four seats, greatly improving the enjoyment of riding. The rear air conditioning control panel is updated with intuitive LCD touch, which is more convenient to operate and provides passengers with a more intelligent ride experience.

MagLink interface has been added in the back row, which can supplement Huawei’s flat panels and support suspension through the official docking station. Passengers in the back row can use two Huawei flat panels at the same time, realizing the convenient function of multi-device linkage. This design takes into account the use of multiple devices and improves the intelligent interconnection experience in the car.

The new M7 is excellent in space, with a standard trunk volume of 686L, which can easily accommodate 12 20-inch boarding boxes.

If the two rows of seats are laid down and connected with the trunk, the maximum loading space can be expanded to 1619L, which is enough to accommodate 30 20-inch trunks. This design takes into account the practical needs when traveling and carrying a large number of items.

The five-seat version has 29 storage spaces, and a 52L compartment is specially designed to fully consider the storage of valuables.

In terms of power, the new M7 is equipped with HUAWEI DriveONE extended-range electric drive platform, equipped with a 1.5T engine and a maximum power of 112kW. The four-wheel drive version has a 100-kilometer acceleration of 4.8 seconds, a pure battery life of 240km and a comprehensive battery life of 1300km. In addition, the fuel consumption is as low as 5.6L/100km under the feed condition.

In order to improve driving performance, the new M7 has upgraded the HUAWEID ATSTM 2.0 dynamic adaptive torque system, and at the same time, the front and rear suspension double FSD variable damping shock absorbers have also been optimized, making the driving experience smoother.

The new model M7 has introduced five versions, obviously targeting the competitors of the ideal L7. M7 takes advantage of more cost-effective price and leading intelligent driving technology.

However, its design has been controversial in the past. Despite a lot of internal upgrades, there is no obvious change in appearance. Compared with the ideal L7, it lacks some sense of technology and luxury, which may be the place that M7 needs to improve.

Although it is "far ahead" in intelligent driving, the M5 intelligent driving version launched this year has not significantly improved the overall sales performance of the industry. This year, the average monthly sales volume of the two models in the world is only about 5,000, which is far from the ideal monthly sales volume of 30,000+. We can still look forward to whether the new M7 can be recognized by the market when it goes on the market!

The iPhone 16 series was officially released today, and the offline "Yellow Cattle" increased its price by 300~400 yuan snapped up the Pro Max version.

Every reporter Jing Wong, every editor Zhang Haini    

Today (September 20), four iPhone 16 series models that have received much attention are officially released. Before 9: 00 a.m., the reporter of national business daily came to the Apple Direct Store in Shenzhen Yitian Holiday Plaza. With the increase of people’s flow, the staff were putting up more black fences for queuing, and the store was also very lively. In addition to taking the "fruit powder" of the new machine, there were some consumers who came to experience the new machine.

According to the staff of Apple Store, consumers who make an appointment in advance can enter the store to get a new machine. There is no iPhone 16 Pro /Pro Max in stock in the store, but iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus can be purchased directly.

"iPhone 16 Pro Max increases the price by 300 ~ recycling around 400 yuan." The reporter noticed several "scalpers" who were trading at the scene. They carried more than a dozen apple shopping bags. When they saw the users who got the new machine from the Apple store, they would take the initiative to ask about recycling the new machine. It is reported that the vast majority of "scalpers" mainly compete for the iPhone 16 Pro Max version, especially the 256G memory version.

As for iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus, "scalpers" don’t accept the goods, and most iPhone 16 Pro are recycled at the original price or increased by 30~50 yuan. In fact, at present, many e-commerce platforms have set off a round of subsidy wars, especially in Pinduoduo. The starting price of iPhone 16 in official website starts at 5,999 yuan, and Pinduoduo goes straight to 600 yuan; IPhone 16 Plus(512GB) started at 9999 yuan in official website, and was subsidized by Pinduoduo, which saved 1000 yuan. This also caused the two models to be "broken" (referring to the situation that the secondary market price fell below the selling price) before they were officially released.

At 8: 00 pm on September 13th, Apple’s iPhone 16 series models officially opened for pre-sale, and many "fruit powders" rushed to Apple’s official website at the first time. At the same time of the first batch of new machines "Secondlight", "Apple official website collapsed" also rushed to Weibo for hot search.

National business daily reporter noted that the current delivery date for ordering iPhone 16/16 Plus from Apple official website is September 23; IPhone 16 Pro is October 11th; Pro Max has the longest delivery date, from October 11th to October 18th. It is worth noting that the delivery date of the best-selling iPhone 15 Pro Max last year was extended to November 14 to November 21, which means that consumers have to wait for about two months after placing an order, which may mean that some users have less demand for the latest iPhone Pro model.

The reporter randomly asked several "scalpers" at the scene as consumers who bought new machines, and learned that according to the color and memory of specific models, iPhone 16 Pro Max is generally recycled at a premium of 300~400 yuan, while it is sold at a premium of 800~1000 yuan. In other words, the "scalper" can earn a net difference of several hundred yuan by selling a mobile phone.

An online seller said, "iPhone 16 Pro has increased less this year, but Pro Max is still increasing the price, but it may reduce the price quickly. It is estimated that it will be sold by adding a few hundred yuan in the afternoon."

Unlike last year, consumers generally pursued large memory, which led to a large premium. This year, large memory is not very popular. After asking a number of "scalpers", the reporter learned that iPhone 16 Pro Max 256GB is relatively more popular. In addition, when the reporter first arrived at the Apple Store, the scalper could sell this model at a premium of nearly 1,000 yuan, but after one hour, the premium has dropped to 600~700 yuan. "Pro Max version of white is more popular, there are too many gold goods, you just need to add 600 yuan." A "yellow cow" said.

In the early morning of September 10th, Apple officially released the new iPhone 16 series, which has been upgraded in appearance, image and chip. Specifically, the two models of iPhone 16/16 Plus adopt A18 chips based on the second generation 3nm process; Pro/Pro Max models use the upgraded A18 Pro chip. All four models are equipped with new camera control buttons, which can be pressed to bring up the camera application, and can be used as a shutter when taking pictures by clicking; Long press to record video; Sliding left and right can also achieve zoom and so on. In addition, this button can also be used as an "AI portal". For example, when a user holding an iPhone 16 sees a restaurant, he can take a picture of the restaurant by pressing "Camera Control", and then Apple Intelligence can automatically bring up the opening hours, evaluation, reservation and other options of the restaurant.

In this year’s conference, AI-related words such as Apple Intelligence and Machine Learning were mentioned many times, showing that Apple attaches importance to the AI field. In addition, in the face of severe economic environment and competitive pressure from China manufacturers, Apple urgently needs a catalyst to rekindle the demand in China market. At present, Apple Intelligence is the trump card in its hands. However, the time when Apple Intelligence went public in China is still uncertain, which also leads to the lower-than-expected sales of iPhone 16 Pro series.

Guo Ming, an analyst at Tianfeng International, said on social platforms a few days ago that the pre-order sales of iPhone 16 series were estimated at about 37 million units in the first weekend, which was about 12.7% lower than that of iPhone 15 series in the first weekend last year. He further said that the delivery time of the iPhone 16 Pro series was significantly lower than that of the 15 Pro series. In addition to the increase in stocking before pre-order, the key point was that the demand was lower than expected from the year-on-year decrease in sales at the first weekend.

However, Guo Ming believes that although the pre-order sales of Pro series declined year-on-year, the production plan of the supply chain will not change much in a short time, and Apple still has the opportunity to improve sales after the launch of Apple Intelligence and the subsequent peak season promotion ("double 11"). However, if the Apple Intelligence launched in the fourth quarter of 2024 and the peak season promotion have limited help to the iPhone 16 series shipments, I believe that Apple will adopt a more radical product strategy in 2025 to boost demand.

It is worth mentioning that,Huawei’s first three-fold mobile phone Mate XT extraordinary master is not only released at the same time as the iPhone 16 series, but also the product release date is on the same day — — At 10: 08 am on September 20th, the three-fold product was officially put on sale. After the start of snapping up, all the models of Mate XT Extraordinary Masters have disappeared in an instant. At present, the official website channel has been out of stock.

Although the two product categories are completely different, the competition is full of gunpowder. Up to now, Huawei Mall shows that the number of reservations for this product has exceeded 6 million. However, compared with the high premium of 60,000 ~ 100,000 yuan before the release, the price of this product has dropped on the salted fish e-commerce platform.

On September 10th, at Huawei’s new product launch conference, Yu Chengdong, managing director of Huawei and chairman of BG, launched the world’s first three-folding screen mobile phone, which can reach a 10.2-inch screen in the state of 30% folding and as thin as 3.6 mm in the state of unfolding. He said: "We always had a dream to put the tablet in our pocket, and today we realized it. However, in terms of technology, it has been struggling for five years. For the first time, the hinge system realized internal and external bending, external folding and anti-stretching, and internal folding and anti-extrusion, which solved the problem of mass production. "

Counterpoint Research recently released a tracking report on the shipment of folding screen smartphones, saying that the global shipment of folding screen smartphones increased by 48% year-on-year in the second quarter of 2024, and China continued to lead the growth of the folding screen mobile phone market, accounting for more than half of the total shipments. The folding screen market, once dominated almost entirely by Samsung, has now become a fierce competitive battlefield among mobile phone brand manufacturers. The agency also said that despite fierce competition in the market, Huawei still ranked first in the market share of folding screen mobile phones in China in 2023, accounting for 39%.

Judging from the PK of the two major brands, the high price of Huawei Mate XT’s extraordinary master, which is close to 20,000 yuan, is destined to be "early adopters" by a small number of users at the initial stage of sale, but Huawei, which has made drastic innovations, has won the market in terms of sound volume, while Apple’s new hardware product release is more about evolution than revolution.

In fact, in the past quarter, the sales of iPhone in China market dropped by 6.5%, and in response to the competition from local competitors such as Huawei, Apple also offered a greater discount — — In May this year, some models were offered a discount of up to 2,300 yuan. Today, AI is highly anticipated, but to what extent it can boost Apple’s sales still needs further observation.

Nabila Popal, research director of IDC, believes that although Apple’s mobile phone containing Apple Intelligence has many bright spots this year, it is difficult for new products to bring too much growth because its Apple Intelligence does not have complete language support. Its impact is more about preventing apple from declining. At the same time, Apple also faces competition, especially from China market, such as Huawei.

Ryan Reith, another analyst at IDC, holds the same view. "Consumers will pay attention to Apple Intelligence, but today there are GPT and various other solutions. Consumers can use AI on their current (other) devices, so it is difficult for Apple Intelligence to directly drive new consumers to buy." At the same time, he also pointed out that the global macro-economy is not very good. Even if we rely on the efforts of suppliers to promote and sell some expensive devices (whether AI mobile phones or AIPC), the development of the AI ? ? smartphone market is still very challenging without promotion and substantial discounts.

However, some institutions are optimistic. Jibang Consulting predicts that the market’s expectation for Apple Intelligence will heat up, and with the low base period in 2023, it is estimated that the total output of four new Apple iPhone 16 series machines will reach 86.7 million units in the second half of 2024, with an annual increase of nearly 8%. It is not ruled out that Apple has the opportunity to surpass Samsung at the end of the year and become the first in the market share of smartphone production in the whole year for the first time.

  Tom Zwart, director of the Intercultural Human Rights Center of the Free University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands, was deeply impressed by China’s achievements in strengthening the rule of law, accurate poverty alleviation, people’s health and medical care. "The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China shows that with the efforts of the people of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and China, China has entered a new era. One area that stands out in this new era is the field of human rights. "

  "Human rights is to make people live a better life. Adhering to the people-centered development thinking and taking the people’s yearning for a better life as the goal is the most direct manifestation of the respect and protection of human rights by the governments of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and China. " After listening to the congratulatory letter from the Chairman of the Supreme Leader, Li Yunlong, a professor at the International Strategy Institute of the Party School of the CPC Central Committee, said.

  "The The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China held not long ago painted a grand blueprint for the development of China, which will surely promote the development of human rights in China and make new and greater contributions to the cause of human progress." Chairman of the Supreme Leader said in his congratulatory letter.

"The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China drew a blueprint for the future of China, which not only made plans for China’s economic and social development, but also provided impetus and opportunities for international cooperation and common development. We are very inspired by China’s development concept. In Guyana, we regard economic development as the focus of improving people’s well-being. "

  "China is a strong partner in Zambian development." Victor Muennuwe Mukonka, director of Zambia’s national public health agency, said that any problem must be solved in development, and development should seek motivation from the people, increase investment in human resources, and at the same time make the fruits of development benefit the people and let them enjoy the rights and interests of health, medical care, housing and education through development. China’s people-centered development concept is worth learning from other developing countries.

  "It is a great dream of human society for everyone to fully enjoy human rights." In the congratulatory letter, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader stated that the people of China are willing to make concerted efforts with the people of other countries, including developing countries, to promote development through cooperation, promote human rights through development, and jointly build a community of human destiny.

  The important idea of building a community of human destiny put forward by the Chairman of the Supreme Leader provides a Chinese plan for promoting the development of global human rights governance in a more just and reasonable direction, and stirs up the strength and hope to share the great dream of human society and create a better future for human development.

  "China has contributed a lot to the world in politics, economy, culture, society and other aspects from proposing to jointly build a community of human destiny to practicing this concept." Francisco Motta, director of the Asia-Pacific, Middle East and North Africa Bureau of the Resident Operations and Cooperation Department of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, said, "Building a community of human destiny means that no individual is allowed to fall behind, and no society, country or nation is allowed to fall behind. China has contributed a lot of wisdom in promoting global justice and equality. The community of human destiny is such wisdom and has been recognized globally. "

  In the congratulatory letter, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader clearly pointed out that the international community should respect and reflect the wishes of the people of developing countries in the spirit of justice, fairness, openness and tolerance.

  In this regard, Andrei van de Braque, a professor at the Free University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands, said that in the past, when people mentioned human rights, they might think more of some Western values. "But building a community of human destiny provides people with new opportunities and perspectives. Every country has its own national conditions and stages of development. Human rights are not only expressed in the West, but also understood by the East and developing countries. Building a community of human destiny is an opportunity for different cultures and countries to strengthen understanding, communication and cooperation. "

  "Human rights are the common discourse and common standard of civilization in the 21st century. Under such an era background, it is timely to promote the development of human rights by building a community of human destiny." Li Yunlong said that the international community should abandon incorrect ideas and practices such as unilateralism and hegemonism, and promote the building of a community of human destiny through cooperation and mutual assistance. Developed countries should make greater efforts to help developing countries, and developing countries should also have more cooperation to achieve greater development.
