Geely Automobile’s high-end pure electric brand Krypton should also consider listing. On October 31, Geely Automobile announced on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange that the company had submitted a proposal to the Stock Exchange in accordance with the 15th application guideline, which proposed to split Zeekr Intelligent Technology Holding Limited and list it independently. Geely Automobile said that the Stock Exchange has confirmed that the company can carry out the proposed spin-off. The terms of the proposed spin-off (including listing place, offering scale, price range and guaranteed quota for shareholders of the company to obtain krypton securities) have not yet been determined.

In response to this, the media said: "We will disclose relevant information in a timely manner in accordance with relevant laws and regulations. The Krypton management team will put business first and ensure the completion of the delivery target of 70,000 vehicles in 2022. The recent turmoil in the capital market will not shake our confidence in the new energy market, and short-term fluctuations in the market will not affect the company’s medium and long-term development. "

ZEEKR (English name Zeekr) was established on April 15th, 2021. It is a brand-new intelligent pure electric vehicle brand owned by Geely Automobile and Geely Holding Co., Ltd., with the shareholding ratio of 51% and 49% respectively. Tianyancha APP shows that Extreme Krypton Automobile (Ningbo Hangzhou Bay New Area) Co., Ltd. was established on September 11, 2020 with a registered capital of 500 million yuan. The legal representative is An Conghui and the chairman is Li Shufu. Since its establishment, it has been financed twice. On August 29, 2021, Krypton signed strategic investment agreements with five eco-partners, including Intel Capital, Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited, Billie Billie, Hongshang Group and Boyu Investment, with a total investment of 500 million US dollars, accounting for about 5.6% of Krypton’s shares after the investment. In December 2021, Geely Automobile announced that the company’s acquisition of 220 million ordinary shares from Geely Group was approved by the shareholders’ meeting. Upon completion of the delivery, Geely Automobile will own about 58.31% of the issued share capital (on the converted basis) and about 54.47% of the enlarged issued share capital. At the same time, Li Shufu, chairman of Geely Holding Group, will increase his 2% stake in Geely Automobile.

At present, only ZEEKR 001 is on sale under the brand of Krypton, which is based on the vast architecture of SEA. There are four models to choose from, and the price range is 29.90-386,000 yuan. As an important brand of Geely’s transformation to new energy, the market performance of the first model of Kyk-Kr brand is highly anticipated. According to the plan, Kyk-Kr 001 will hit the sales target of 70,000 vehicles this year. However, at the beginning of last month, Kyk-Kr released the Description on the Delivery of ZEEKR 001, indicating that due to the hot sales of the models, the orders made from now on are expected to be delivered in 2023.

The latest data shows that ZEEKR 001 has delivered a total of 45,481 vehicles since the delivery was started in October 2021. Among them, ZEEKR 001 delivered 39,474 vehicles from January to September in 2022, accounting for 56.3% of the sales target, and the remaining 43.7 will be completed in the next three months. From this point of view, ZEEKR 001 may not be able to achieve its annual sales target. Earlier, An Conghui, chairman of Geely Automobile Group, once said: Geely is full of confidence in the sales target of delivering 70,000 vehicles throughout the year and keeps the target unchanged. Whether this goal can be finally achieved remains to be verified.

China Economic Weekly reporter Song Jie | Shanghai Report

"Our three staff members have to receive inquiries from 30 spectators at the same time. I really didn’t expect this exhibition to be so hot." At the 2023 World Artificial Intelligence Conference held in Shanghai from July 6 to 8, the first Hong Kong pavilion enterprise — — Cao Xiaolei, founder of Health Shooting, told the reporter of China Economic Weekly.

Just as generative AI and artists performed together in the opening show of the conference, a new round of artificial intelligence represented by generative artificial intelligence and big model has accelerated its evolution, leading the scientific and technological revolution and industrial revolution sweeping the world. Human beings are approaching a brand-new era of general artificial intelligence as never before, which has aroused common concern and heated discussion around the world.

This year’s conference attracted many international organizations, people from international academic circles and foreign-funded enterprises, including UNIDO, UNESCO, IJCAI, IEEE Metacosmic Standards Association, Microsoft, Google, Intel, NVIDIA, OpenAI and so on. According to reports, the conference docked 210 upstream and downstream enterprises, reached an intentional purchase amount of 11 billion yuan, and promoted the signing of 32 major industrial projects with a total investment of 28.8 billion yuan.

The reporter of China Economic Weekly saw at the conference site that over 400 exhibitors displayed scientific and technological achievements in the fields of large models, chips, robots and intelligent driving in the main exhibition area of 50,000 square meters of the Expo Exhibition Hall, and a large number of products integrating cutting-edge AI technology appeared, bringing a unique "talent show" to the audience.

The Lite3 laser version robot attracted the audience’s attention.

Robots! Intelligent application scenarios generate the future

Robots are known as "the jewel at the top of the manufacturing crown". More than 20 robots were unveiled at this year’s conference, and many of them were the first shows, including a biped robot equipped with large model dialogue ability, a Tesla humanoid robot, a minimally invasive surgical robot, a U.S. UAV V4, a robot dog from Iflytek, and a quadruped robot from Yun Shenchu.

Elon musk, CEO of Tesla, who attended the World Artificial Intelligence Conference via video link, said that the computing power of robots is much stronger than that of human beings, and the ratio of robots to humans will exceed 1∶1 or even greater in the future, which seems to have become a development trend. The positive impact of this is that mankind will enter an era of prosperity, because there will be many robots in the future, and their production efficiency will be much higher than that dominated by human beings.

He cited Tesla’s humanoid robot "Optimus" as an example, saying that it is smart enough to help human beings do some boring, repetitive and dangerous work, which human beings are unwilling to do.

At the opening ceremony, Fu Liye Intelligent released a newly developed universal humanoid robot GR-1 in the first show of major innovations. As a domestic self-developed universal humanoid robot product that can be commercialized, GR-1′ s technological breakthrough has attracted the attention of the industry.

GR-1 is 1.65 meters tall, weighs 55 kilograms, has 40 full-body degrees of freedom, the maximum peak torque of joint module can reach 300N·m, the walking speed can reach 5km/h, and the load is 50 kilograms. This robot has a highly bionic trunk configuration, anthropomorphic motion control, fast walking, agile obstacle avoidance, steady uphill and downhill, anti-impact interference and other motion functions, combined with cognitive intelligence, can cooperate with people to complete actions, and has great potential in many application scenarios such as industry, rehabilitation, home, scientific research and so on.

The person in charge of Fu Liye’s intelligence told the reporter of China Economic Weekly: "From special use to general use is the development trend of many technologies and products, which will greatly change the way people live and work. Humanoid robot is a good carrier, once it is generalized, it will meet the huge market demand, similar to the popularity of computers and electric vehicles. Our rehabilitation robot technology has achieved global leadership and landed in more than 40 countries and regions. General robots will continue their globalization strategy and actively expand overseas markets. "

With the theme of "Mobile Overcharging AI Space", Dark Horse Force, which exhibited for the first time, demonstrated its safe and efficient MPS intelligent mobile charging network and its innovative charging experience without awareness of the whole link. Two intelligent charging robots, G60 Xiaohei, demonstrated the whole process of non-inductive charging operation on the spot, and their cool design and flexible skills attracted many guests to stop and watch.

"In the past, new energy owners had to go to the parking lot to find charging piles. In many places, if they don’t pull out the charging gun after charging, they will face fines. The pain point we solved is that the owner doesn’t have to worry about charging, stop at any position in the parking lot, place an order with one button of the mobile phone, and the robot will come over and insert the charging gun into the charging port of your car, and pull it out after it is full; In large supermarkets, hospitals, transportation hubs and a private residential area where charging piles are hard to find, G60 Xiaohe can intelligently charge in the whole process, and complete the unmanned gun insertion and removal operation with high robustness (robustness is transliteration of mechanical engineering, which means "easy to use and durable") by the intelligent mechanical arm. " The field staff told the reporter of China Economic Weekly.

At the conference site, the Yun Shenchu Science and Technology booth attracted many people to stop filming. The reporter saw that the dexterous quadruped robot Ghost Lite3 demonstrated advanced sports ability and AI perception ability through dexterous jumping, voice interaction, human body following and navigation obstacle avoidance. The industrial robot X20 shows multi-sensor fusion gait planning by going up and down stairs steadily and naturally. According to the on-site staff, Lite3 introduced the industrial real-time control system with deep optimization kernel for the first time, which improved the overall computing power by nearly 3 times, climbed 15cm steps, almost the limit height that quadruped robots of the same size can complete, and also supported high jump, forward somersault and other difficult movements.

The US group drone used for delivery attracted the audience to stop.

Black Horse Force’s first MPS robot G60 Xiaohe made a stunning debut, attracting many viewers to stop and watch the experience.

Big model!

Empowering all walks of life to create diverse ecology

"Please write a poem to describe the future world of artificial intelligence?"

"Can wok cooking supplement iron?"

At the Iflytek booth, the iFLYTEK Spark Cognitive Model attracted many guests to stop. Everyone crowded around the big model to ask questions to it, and the big model quickly gave the answer, which became one of the hottest "punch points" in the exhibition.

At present, the big model of artificial intelligence pre-training is setting off a new round of intelligent upsurge, leading artificial intelligence from dedicated to universal. More than 30 large models, including Baidu Wenxin, ali tong Yi, Huawei Pangu, iFLYTEK Spark, and Shang Tang Ririxin, all appeared on the stage, showing that the large models can empower the diverse ecology of all walks of life.

For domestic large models, the key to sustainable security and development depends on the rapid development of domestic AI chips and supporting software. As Hu Guoping, senior vice president of Iflytek and director of the State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Intelligence, said: "The domestic big model will have a big future only if it is based on the computing base of China’s independent innovation."

It is based on this background that during this conference, Huawei and Iflytek Big Model officially unveiled their cooperation and made every effort to build a new base of general intelligence in China.

Huawei Ascent Platform is one of the representative works of domestic independent computing power. Hu Guoping said: "The strong alliance between iFLYTEK Spark and Shengteng AI makes the domestic large-scale model architecture based on independent innovation of software and hardware."

According to reports, on the one hand, the iFLYTEK Spark Cognitive Model is based on the integrated design of training and reasoning, which can realize the technological breakthrough of thinning and low-precision quantification of the large model, effectively adapt to Ascending AI, and accelerate the industrial application and iteration of the large model; On the other hand, with Ascension AI as the core, software and hardware can be co-optimized, and a large model training cluster with concentrated computing power, superior performance, stable supply and data security can be built.

Hu Guoping believes that the large model is similar to the principle layer of the brain. They are all combined by over 100 billion neurons, receiving input stimuli and then generating intelligent output, and have similar intelligent excitation and operation mechanisms. "What the brain can do, the big model can also be realized. This indicates that the big model has unlimited potential. "

According to Hu Houkun, the rotating chairman of Huawei, the basic model is "reading thousands of books", while the industry model and scene model are "walking Wan Li Road".

He said, "From ‘ Read thousands of books ’ To ‘ Take Wan Li Road ’ There are still many challenges to be overcome. One of the key points is to fully match and integrate the knowledge of all walks of life with the big model. Huawei is working with partners in various industries. "

Li Xu, Chairman and CEO of Shangtang Technology, said: "The breakthrough of big model has set off a new round of technological revolution of artificial intelligence, followed by explosive growth of industrial demand, and brand-new application scenarios and application modes are rapidly emerging. Shang Tang hopes to pass ‘ Large model+large device ’ Continue to promote the leap-forward improvement of AI infrastructure capabilities, not only to create a basic model with stronger general capabilities, but also to further efficiently integrate professional knowledge in different vertical fields, build a professional large model with better understanding of the industry and more expertise, and fundamentally reduce the downstream application costs and thresholds of large models, so that the industrial value of large models can bloom in thousands of industries. "

With the rapid development of general artificial intelligence represented by big models, Shanghai, which is at the forefront of science and technology, is actively promoting the construction of an open and safe big model innovation ecology and building a world-class industrial cluster of artificial intelligence, and the innovation and development policy on big models will soon be introduced.

Zhang Ying, deputy director of Shanghai Economic and Information Technology Commission, said at the closing ceremony that Shanghai will implement three plans to solve the bottleneck of large-scale model development. Among them, the "Big Model Innovation Support Plan" will focus on supporting Shanghai innovators to develop internationally competitive big models, and will implement special awards to accelerate model iteration. The "Intelligent Computing Acceleration Plan" focuses on strengthening the construction of large-scale intelligent computing power and establishing a green channel. The "Demonstration Application Promotion Plan" will strengthen the deep application of large models in vertical fields such as intelligent manufacturing, education and teaching, technology and finance, design creativity and scientific intelligence, and create benchmarking scenarios.

　　Monthly trend of brand shipment in China TV market for 13 consecutive months

　　Data source: RUNTO, unit: 10,000 units,%

　　At the same time, it is noted that February last year was the off-season after the Spring Festival. Although February this year was the Spring Festival month, the sales volume in the whole month still showed a certain growth year-on-year driven by the doubling of sales volume in the week before the Spring Festival. The retail volume in the first two months of this year has increased year-on-year, which may be a signal of sales recovery.

　　According to the online monitoring data of RUNTO, in January and February, 2024, the cumulative retail volume of online public retail channels (excluding content e-commerce companies such as Jikuai) in China TV market increased by more than 10% compared with the same period of last year, and the retail volume increased by more than 40%, with an average price of about 2,810 yuan, a year-on-year increase of 27% and an average size of 66 inches.

　　Under the shipping caliber, in February 2024, the total shipments of the top seven traditional major brands in China TV market, namely Hisense, Xiaomi, TCL, Skyworth, Changhong, Konka, Haier and their sub-brands, were about 1.65 million units, down 25.9% year-on-year and 57.9% month-on-month, and the combined market share was as high as 92.9%.

　　From January to February, the total shipments of the seven major brands were about 5.56 million units, an increase of 4.2% over the same period in 2023, and the growth rate was higher than that of the broader market.

　　Brand performance of the first camp

　　In terms of camps, the total shipment of TOP4 brand in the first camp (with an annual shipment of more than 6 million units) reached 1.41 million units in February, down 24.6% year-on-year, which was less than the market.

　　Xiaomi (including Redmi) shipped nearly 400,000 units in February, down about 30% year-on-year, and its market share reached 21.5%, down 1.7 percentage points month-on-month. The decline in market share was mainly due to the reduction of small-sized low-end products under the strategy of "emphasizing profits but neglecting scale".

　　Hisense, TCL and Skyworth (including sub-brands) shipped 1.03 million units in February, down 22.0% year-on-year, and the combined market accounted for 58.2%, up 3.3 percentage points from the previous month. The cumulative shipment in January and February was 3.33 million units, up by 14.2% compared with the same period of last year, and the combined market share increased by 5.4 percentage points.

　　Among them, Hisense (including sub-brand Vidda) and TCL (including sub-brand Thunderbird) shipped between 350,000 and 390,000 units in February. The shipment of Skyworth (including its sub-brand cool open) is about 290,000 units.

　　Brand performance of the second camp

　　The combined shipments of Changhong, Konka and Haier in the second camp (with an annual shipment of more than 1 million units) in February were about 240,000 units, down 32.9% year-on-year, and the total volume was not as good as that of the single brand in the first camp.

　　In addition, the total monthly shipments of the three brands decreased by about 30% year-on-year, and the combined market share was 13.3%, down 2.0 percentage points from the previous month. However, its cumulative shipments in January and February also increased compared with the same period of last year, reaching 880,000 units, with an increase of 0.8%.

　　Huawei’s shipments are still only tens of thousands, down about 20% year-on-year. At present, Huawei’s strategy mainly focuses on middle and high-end products. Although the scale has not started, the profit has improved.

　　Other brand performance

　　The four major foreign brands Sony, Samsung, Sharp and Philips shipped less than 100,000 units in February, down about 40% year-on-year.

　　It is worth noting that according to the industrial chain information, Samsung Electronics will use both the QD-OLED displayed by Samsung and the W-OLED panel displayed by LG in this year’s flagship product S90D OLED TV.

　　summarize

　　At the beginning of 2024, China’s economy continued to expand, but the growth rate slowed down year-on-year, and real estate sales also weakened. The government set the economic growth target for 2024 at around 5% again, and predicted that the final growth rate may also slow down to the benchmark of 4.6%, mainly due to the low cardinal utility fading and the continuous downward trend of the real estate market.

　　Under this economic background, the performance of China TV market shipments in the first two months of the new year was acceptable, at least it was a signal of recovery growth.The two major driving forces of China TV market in 2024 will be the big-screen promotion of sports in the New Year and the "trade-in of consumer goods".In view of the latter, subsidies may be borne by local governments instead of central finance, and the low energy efficiency of TV sets and high retention rate may be three hidden disadvantages.

　　Forty years of China’s literary creation: from "scar literature" to "online novel"

　　China news agency, Beijing, October 6 (Reporter Gao Kai) "Literary changes are influenced by the world, and the rise and fall depend on the time sequence" (Liu Xie, Southern Dynasty), from "scar literature" to "online novel", China’s literary creation has experienced colorful ups and downs with social changes in the past 40 years.

　　In 1977, the 11th issue of People’s Literature published Liu Xinwu’s "Head Teacher" in the headline of "Special Short Stories". The novel was criticized as "criticism and enlightenment" and the pursuit of authenticity, which exposed the spiritual poison caused by the "Cultural Revolution" to teenagers. In 1978, a wave of literary creations revealed the harm of the Cultural Revolution to the people’s spirit, such as Wound by Lu Xinhua and Soul and Body by Zhang Xianliang, told the spiritual history records of a generation of China intellectuals who reflected on the Cultural Revolution. It was called "Wound Literature" in the literary history, while The Head Teacher was regarded as a "pioneering work".

　　This year, in an interview with the media, Liu Xinwu said that "scar literature" is more about expressing thoughts, opinions and viewpoints, rather than really digging deep into the literature itself. In fact, when literature continues to progress, and then the creation is required to truly return to the literary ontology, it is far from enough to express the views on social life. "Trauma literature naturally melts with the development of the times."

　　What the reform has brought to China people is not only the abundance of material life, but also the expansion of individual thought and living space.

　　Since 1978, with the economic and social changes, Dangdai’s literary publications such as October, Flower City and Everyone have come out in succession, and they have quickly become fertile ground for the growth of literary creation.

　　After the "scar literature", a large number of reform works emerged, from Zhang Jie’s "Heavy Wings" to Ke Yunlu’s "New Star", which aroused widespread public concern. "New Star" appeared as a avant-garde literary image that reflected realistic problems and confronted social contradictions, and its adaptation of the TV series of the same name gained unprecedented attention and ratings at that time.

　　In 1986, Lu Yao’s Ordinary World interwoven daily life with huge social conflicts, showing the difficult and tortuous road that ordinary people have taken in the historical process of the great era. This award-winning work of Mao Dun Literature Award not only won the recognition of the literary world, but also aroused strong resonance among readers and became the "explosion" of that year.

　　China literature is increasingly returning to literary noumenon, and it is more inclined to pure literature.

　　Since the middle and late 1980s, a number of outstanding writers, such as Yu Hua, Su Tong, Liu Suola, Acheng and Ge Fei, have successively published their "golden" works.

　　In 1985, Mo Yan published the novella Transparent Carrots in China Writers, which added a wonderful stroke to the literature in the new period with magnificent imagination and expanded the creative space of novels in the new period. Mo Yan became famous in one fell swoop. Twenty-seven years later, he won the Nobel Prize in Literature because his works "magical realism blended folk stories, history and contemporary society".

　　Chen Jiangong, vice chairman of the Chinese Writers Association, said that during the period from 1978 to 2008, China’s literary creation, writers constantly expanded the realm of "ego", and integrated "ego" into the feelings of home and country, national worries and joys, and the people’s upsurge of creating history and the torrent of national rejuvenation. ? From "non-ego" to "ego" and from "ego" to "ego", the creative subject of literature has finally found its own artistic and historical orientation, which is the mystery of the outstanding personality of literary creation and the heavy and vigorous literary pattern over the years.

　　With the progress of science and technology and social development, the Internet has increasingly entered the lives of China people, and network literature has emerged. Since Cai Zhiheng’s online novel "The First Intimate Contact" became popular in 1998, China’s online literature has gone through 20 years.

　　With the development of film, animation, games and other related industries in recent years, the annual income of many online writers has reached "tens of millions".

　　Born in 1981, the online writer "Tang Jiasan Shao" has owned his own cultural investment company, ranking first in the rich list of online writers in China for many years. In addition to the material sense of existence, after years of development, China online writers have also become a member of the mainstream literary creation. Tang Jiasan believes that the traditional literary world has accepted and tolerated online literature to a great extent. With the network literature entering a new turning point in history, the network literature, which started from leisure and entertainment, has also shown a positive trend in the creation of realistic themes.

　　Literature comes from the times and also records the times. Looking back on the 40 years of reform and opening up, China’s literary creation is magnificent, and the future can be expected. As Mr. Lu Xun said, "Infinite distance and countless people are all related to me". (End)

21st century business herald reporter Yi Jiaying reports from Shanghai.

In the low tide, domestic beauty cosmetics are looking for new opportunities. Just last week, the first store under the Huaxizi Line officially opened in Hangzhou Xizi Lake. Prior to this, the brand mainly sold products and communicated with users through online channels such as Tmall, JD.COM, Tik Tok, etc., and has not been laid out offline. "In fact, we started to shop under the preparatory line the year before last, but there has been no suitable location." The person in charge of Huaxizi Oriental Aesthetics and Space Innovation Center said that for Huaxizi, if there is no good location, there will be no rush to open a store.

The expansion from online to offline, on the one hand, is the development space of fancy entities, on the other hand, it is also limited by the bottleneck of online traffic. According to the data of the total retail sales of consumer goods in June released by the National Bureau of Statistics, in the first half of 2022, the total retail sales of cosmetics nationwide was 190.5 billion yuan, down 2.5% year-on-year. This is the first decline in the total retail sales of cosmetics in the first half of the year in the past 10 years, and the growth rate is even lower than that in the same period in 2020.

Among them, the impact of the epidemic can not be ignored. According to the 2022 China Shoppers Report, the compound growth rate of cosmetics lacking the support of social needs has decreased by 16%, and the pace of new product sales has also been disrupted. Constant innovation has always been an important market strategy for domestic beauty brands.

An obvious phenomenon is that many brands have slowed down in the first half of this year. In an interview with 21st century business herald, the relevant person in charge of Juyi Group said, "The repeated epidemic this year has really affected us a lot, and the whole R&D, production and logistics have been affected to some extent. Many new products and new series of its brands, orange blossoms and fermented colors, have been forced to postpone listing. "

According to the performance report of Yixian E-commerce in the third quarter of 2022, the revenue in the third quarter was 858 million yuan, down by 36.1% year-on-year. The reason is still the decline in the income of makeup business. In the third quarter, the income of makeup business of Perfect Diary, Little Odin, Pink Bear and other brands was 570 million yuan, down by 48.8% year-on-year.

At the same time, the fluctuation of the live e-commerce industry has also brought uncertainty. In the past years, domestic beauty brands have mainly relied on online channels, especially live e-commerce. After the traffic turbulence brought by the super-head anchor that is enough to drive a brand and transform its influence, the brand is also rethinking live broadcast, traffic and brand.

Fluctuation of flow

This year, during Li Jiaqi’s absence for nearly three months, the sales of some domestic beauty brands also fluctuated greatly.

Looking back at that time, many domestic beauty brands concluded to the 21st century business herald reporter that the live broadcast room of the big anchor is addictive, but it should be used with caution. "Now I don’t think about the live broadcast room of the big anchor in daily life, but for new brands, super-head anchors such as Li Jiaqi are still excellent brand endorsements." Ou Ni (pseudonym), a staff member of a domestic beauty brand, said, "Every time a domestic brand pushes a new product, it is still needed. It is indeed a more certain channel for the new product to detonate."

During the Double Eleven last year, there were more than 1,300 kinds of domestic products in the live broadcast rooms in Li Jiaqi. In this year’s "All Girls’ offer" program, the proportion of domestic brands also exceeded 50%. In Ou Ni’s view, compared with the flow, we pay more attention to the deep creation of products of both parties. "In fact, before everything happened, Li Jiaqi accounted for less than 5% of the total sales channels. Our strategic adjustment has been deliberately tilted to self-broadcasting and Tik Tok channels, and Tik Tok’s stamina is worthy of attention and attention. "

Different from the reflection of domestic brands, international brands began to gather in Li Jiaqi live broadcast rooms. In the first quarter of this year, the growth rate of international beauty giants in China slowed down, and the growth of head brands was limited by weak consumption. Since the "June 18th Promotion" in the middle of the year, big names have been betting on Li Jiaqi, lowering their posture, showing unexpected discounts, and even giving discounts and formal clothes from the tooling.

In this regard, Tangyi said that makeup is an industry with a long chain and very high requirements for the completion of each link in the chain. Short-term price reduction promotion may bring some sales promotion, but it is an act of quenching thirst by drinking poison, which damages the image and positioning of the brand itself. Short-term promotion will not affect the whole market. "This year is the fifth year of the establishment of the Tangduo brand under the Tangyi Group, and the yeast color has also entered the third year of brand development. In the past few years, the whole group has continued to make profits, and has maintained double-digit annual sales growth, much faster than the growth rate of the market. In 2021, the GMV of orange blossoms was close to 1 billion, and the GMV of fermented color exceeded 500 million. "

In fact, reducing dependence on talent is a new way that all brands that have gone through detours are practicing. Some brands believe that it is not a good thing to be too closely bound to the platform.

The person in charge of a domestic beauty brand further pointed out that, more crucially, the label of live broadcast for a long time has been to emphasize the price, and everyone pays for the temporary cool impulse, which is meaningless for brand building and consumer loyalty. "We have more freedom to do self-broadcasting, and we can establish deeper communication with consumers."

Under the landing line

Corresponding to the fluctuation of online channels, domestic beauty brands are also actively going offline.

It is understood that the first store of Huaxizi not only has the function of beauty retail, but also includes customized experience, art exhibition and other services. "The choice of Hua Xizi has nothing to do with the cold and warm market." The person in charge of Huaxizi Hidden Garden explained that the biggest goal of opening a store is not to do business, but to present a more complete Huaxizi to users through this store. "So we choose a bigger storefront to create an artistic space for users."

At present, Hua Xizi has no clear plan for opening stores and other channels in the future, but said that the brand will continue to explore offline space for interaction with users.

Compared with the opening of Huaxizi’s big store, Tangduo started in pop-up shop at the earliest. In the spring of 2019, Tangduo made its first pop-up shop in shanghai new world, only 5 square meters. "Market feedback, media exposure and business output far exceeded our expectations. Pop-up shop has a long queue at the door every day and has become a popular punching place for Xiaohongshu. " The relevant person in charge of Tangduo said, "After that, we carefully selected core shopping malls such as Chengdu, Changsha, Wuhan, Nanjing and Guangzhou to make a tour of pop-up shop, and they all received very good responses."

It is precisely because of this that Orange Blossom has opened offline direct stores since September 2020. At present, it has opened nearly 20 direct stores in Shanghai, Chengdu, Chongqing, Hangzhou, Xi ‘an and other cities, and more cities will be laid out in the future.

21st century business herald reporter is concerned that these domestic offline beauty shops are not only the shelves of traditional cosmetics counters, but also deeply combine the psychological needs of young consumers, and incorporate photo punching points into the store design, which are easy to shoot and stroll, and are suitable for the punching needs of social platform communication.

There are more domestic beauty brands such as Colorkey, Leemember, Girlcult, Hold Live, Hedone, etc., and they choose to settle in the offline beauty collection store. According to incomplete statistics of the media, THE COLORIST colorist opened more than 300 direct stores in less than two years. Official website of WOW COLOUR shows that it will open 600 stores in 2020.

Not only are young new domestic beauty brands, but established brands such as Mao Geping pay more attention to offline. "Today, with the high penetration of the Internet, live e-commerce, short video marketing, online celebrity economy and private domain operation have changed the traditional sales model, but for brands, what is more important is the offline brand counters." Song Hongping, director and CEO of Mao Geping Cosmetics Co., Ltd., said in an interview with 21st century business herald, "Offline has always been a very core area for us to provide services to consumers. We regard product trials and face-to-face communication for consumers as precious opportunities, hoping to make consumers feel the brand temperature. "

Meet the local conditions

In addition to channel strategy, domestic brands’ pursuit of consumers is more manifested in product innovation.

"The vast majority of women in China often encounter thousands of colors when choosing makeup, and popular colors are not suitable for their own troubles. In the final analysis, it comes from the fact that many consumers don’t know what color they are, and they also have a little knowledge of the appropriate colors. " According to the person in charge of research and development of yeast color, yeast color has created a set of skin color analysis theory by analyzing the skin color of women in China, and developed matching products such as lips, eyes and air cushions for 18 women with different skin colors in China.

Besides skin color, Yeast Color also studied and analyzed the skin quality and facial contour characteristics of women in China, and launched targeted products. Hua Xizi, whose brand gene is Oriental Aesthetics, is also increasing research and development. Li Huiliang, the chief scientist, announced that he will invest 1 billion yuan in scientific research in the next five years, and Chinese herbal medicine is the key direction of product research and development in the future.

Although this is not a new phenomenon, China consumers’ preference for local brands has accelerated in recent years. The 2023 McKinsey China Consumer Report: The Age of Resilience points out that, surprisingly, national pride is not the only driving factor. Today’s domestic enterprises respond to the trend faster, get closer to consumers and invest more boldly. 49% of China consumers think that local brands are "better in quality" than foreign brands, while 23% of China consumers hold the opposite opinion. The survey involves 12 different product attributes, and the data results are roughly the same.

"The skin color and skin quality of people in the East and the West are very different. There are still some differences from the simple market research of big data and the cognition of data in some aspects. " Song Hongping said frankly that it is as important to get a sense of body sensation from one-on-one service as to get information from big data and market research.

Although the epidemic has brought a big impact to the beauty market, with the optimization and landing of epidemic prevention measures, people’s work and life will gradually recover, and consumption will rebound positively. It is not difficult to predict that in 2023, every brand is gearing up, and a new round of more intense market competition has arrived.

As a naturalized player in Chinese football, Garatt has dismissed the contract with the Guangzhou team and returned to his hometown of Brazil to find a new playing opportunity. There is no exact news about whether Gaunt will retain Chinese nationality in the future. However, for the return of the former Brazilian international, many Brazilian fans have unexpectedly "interest".

Earlier, it was reported that Gaunt attracted the attention of the Brazilian Furniture, including Barona, Flaglo, and Palmeras. But in the Corinthian forum, most fans oppose the team’s introduction of Gaunt.

Some fans said: "Gaurat used to be a good player before, but now his knee cartilage has been removed. It is difficult for this player to play high -level football in the future. When I left, Parmeras was like a pig who hit the Universiade because they got rid of this high salary burden. "

There are also fans believe that since Gaunt has joined Chinese, it seems a bit awkward to play in Barn: "He used to be absent for more than five months due to injuries. And he has joined the Chinese nationality. He is equivalent to wasting a place for foreign aid. "" I don’t know what he is now. I mean, don’t he already have a Chinese state? In Brazil, he is a foreign aid, so what does it mean to come back? "

In addition to doubts about the problem of Gaurart’s nationality, more fans are not optimistic about Gaunt’s competitive status today. "Even from an optimistic perspective, Gaunt is mostly similar to the current Dordinho, and it will even be even worse. When he returned from China, his performance had begun to decline. And say. "" God bless you not sign Gaunt, he can no longer play in Brazil. Now he is no longer three years ago. "
