Xinhua News Agency, Shanghai, March 22nd Question: The 4S shop has received the notice of price reduction, but it is still not easy to "pick up the car immediately at the bare car price"-the high-end car brand has lowered the "guide price" to track down.

Xinhua News Agency reporters Zhou Rui and Wang He

There is still a period of time before the VAT rate of manufacturing and other industries is lowered on April 1. High-end automobile brands such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi and Jaguar Land Rover have recently announced the reduction of the "official guidance price". Behind the price reduction is the road to the transformation of China’s automobile market, where everything is easy to sell, and consumers are concerned about how much the terminal price can be reduced. The reporter’s investigation found that at present, the 4S shop has received the notice of price reduction, but it is still not easy to "pick up the car immediately at the bare car price".

High-end brands have lowered the "official guidance price", and some models have been lowered by about 80,000 yuan.

After the China Municipal Government announced that the value-added tax rate of manufacturing industries would be reduced to 13% from April 1st, in the past week, high-end automobile brands such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Jaguar Land Rover, Volvo and Lincoln announced in advance that they would lower the "official guide price". In addition, after Tesla announced the price reduction across the board, the China automobile market ushered in a new round of "price reduction tide", and the "official guide price" of some models was lowered by about 80,000 yuan.

Mercedes-Benz announced that it would reduce the suggested retail prices of all Mercedes-Benz and smart models sold in Chinese mainland from 16th, with the highest drop of 64,000 yuan for Mercedes -AMG models.

Volvo announced that it would reduce the suggested retail price of all models sold in China from now on, among which the luxury SUV XC90 had the highest drop of 60,000 yuan.

Jaguar Land Rover also announced that it would lower the price of all models sold in China, with Jaguar brand models dropping by up to 42,000 yuan and Land Rover brand models dropping by up to 85,000 yuan.

This is the third wave of "price reduction" in China auto market since May last year. In May 2018, the value-added tax rate of manufacturing and other industries was lowered from 17% to 16%; From July 2018, the tariffs on automobiles with tax rates of 25% and 20% respectively will be reduced to 15%. Many car companies announced price cuts in advance when the state announced the tax adjustment policy.

Behind the price reduction, the China auto market, which is striding forward all the way, is facing new challenges. In the context of slowing economic growth, China’s automobile production in 2018 was 27.8092 million, down 4.16% year-on-year; The sales volume was 28.0806 million units, down 2.76% year-on-year.

The pressure felt by high-end brand car companies is more obvious. "The main force of this’ price reduction tide’ is high-end brands. An important reason is that its profit margin is high and there is room for profit." Cui Dongshu, secretary general of the National Passenger Car Market Information Association, said.

The "official guide price" has been transmitted to the terminal, but there is still a game between consumers and 4S stores.

How much do consumers benefit from the price reduction announced by automobile manufacturers? The reporter found that the "official guide price" has been transmitted to the terminal market, but under the current sales pattern of the automobile market, it is not easy for consumers to realize the "naked car price to pick up the car immediately".

For example, the sales staff of 4S shops of many high-end car brands in Shanghai said that they had received the price reduction notice from the manufacturers and could refer to it. At the same time, however, some salespeople also said that considering that the models and colors selected by reporters are very scarce in stock, it is likely that they need to make reservations with manufacturers, and the waiting period is relatively long, so it is recommended to choose consumer loans or change options.

"There will be a game between consumers and 4S stores. After the’ official guide price’ is lowered, the actual purchase price of these brands will drop, but there may be some comprehensive costs." Cui Dongshu said.

Despite this, the insiders admit that with the overall cooling of the auto market, the strength of high-end auto brands has eased a lot, and the market is becoming healthier. Cui Dongshu said: "The move of car companies to downgrade is the profit-making gesture taken by enterprises."

Waiting in line without raising the price, "recommending" luxury interior decoration, and waiting for "naked lifting" explosive models for months … Once, the hot auto market forced consumers to accept all kinds of "hidden rules" of 4S stores, especially some high-end brands. However, with China’s auto market, especially passenger car market, bidding farewell to high growth, and parallel imported cars gaining more consumers’ recognition, the phenomenon of "store bullying customers" mentioned above is gradually decreasing, and the survival way of 4S stores is changing from pre-sales to after-sales service.

China auto market will be greener, farther and know you better.

In the current market environment, high-end car brands play the price card, and the survival pressure of small and medium-sized brand car companies will be even greater. Insiders pointed out that from the perspective of the whole industry, China’s automobile industry has reached a "crossroads", and car companies should not only pay attention to the price, but also pay attention to the upgrading of product structure and the development of emerging markets.

Miao Wei, Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, previously pointed out that automobile production and sales declined in 2018. Externally, there were factors such as limited purchases and restrictions; Internally, enterprises are not fast enough in adjusting structure and changing development mode. Automobile enterprises should adhere to the supply-side structural reform as the main line and accelerate the adjustment of product structure; At the same time, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will actively work with relevant departments to speed up the research and introduction of policies to promote rural automobile consumption and accelerate the promotion and application of new energy vehicles.

According to the data, despite the downturn in China’s automobile market, new energy vehicles are still developing at a high speed, and the construction of "green efficiency" charging stations, which once hampered new energy vehicles, is also in full swing. According to the data, as of February this year, the number of public charging piles in China has reached 348,000.

Many car companies in China are asking for power from the Internet to bring consumers the experience of the next generation of cars. I can read your emotions and interact with you, and even make different responses according to the needs of different passengers in the front and rear seats-the Weilai ES8 model loaded with the artificial intelligence system NOMI is welcomed by the market. Weilai Automobile’s latest financial report shows that in 2018, the total output of ES8 models reached 12,775 and 11,348 vehicles were delivered. Internet car-making has moved from concept to residents’ life.

There are also some auto companies in China that are actively participating in global competition. From a single product trade, it has gradually changed to an overseas industrial layout where technology, talents and capital are exported together. According to the data of the Ministry of Commerce, at present, 23 backbone automobile enterprises in China have established more than 90 factories overseas, with a production capacity of more than 1 million vehicles.

　　Shanghai multi-department third to drop (Shanghai) company to carry out safety special project inspection.

　　On the afternoon of September 21, the Shanghai Municipal Transportation Commission Law Enforcement Corps, the Shanghai Urban Transportation Management Office, the Shanghai Public Security Bureau Traffic Police Corps, and the Shanghai Public Security Bureau Network Security Corps jointly carried out a special project inspection on Didi (Shanghai) Company, requiring Didi Company to earnestly fulfill its main responsibility for safety, and further implement relevant rectification work in accordance with the spirit of the "9.11 Joint Inspection" rectification requirements notice.

　　According to the Shanghai Traffic Law Enforcement Corps, on the evening of September 14, Didi (Shanghai) sent the materials required in the "9.11 Joint Inspection" rectification request notice to the Municipal Traffic Commission Law Enforcement Corps.The materials submitted are all paper materials without summary statistics, serial numbers, and page numbers (the total number of reports cannot be counted, there are no non-Shanghai personnel and vehicle inventories, and there are no people and vehicle inventories who have obtained the city’s online car-hailing qualifications), nor have they submitted a specific "rectification plan".

　　The materials reported by Didi are paper materials without summary statistics, no serial number, and no page number. The pictures in this article are all pictures of He Yinghan, a reporter from The Paper

　　From September 16th to 17th, the inspection team randomly selected "online car-hailing vehicle and driver information" and "active vehicle and driver information" from the inspected materials, and compared them with the Shanghai online car-hailing monitoring platform (hereinafter referred to as the "supervision platform").Of the 95 pieces of information randomly selected, only 27 were completely consistent with the information queried by the regulatory platform, and 68 were found to be inconsistent.

　　1. Of the total and active information provided by the company, most of the driver and vehicle information is not available on the supervision platform.

　　2. Among the active information provided by the company, some drivers and vehicles cannot find the order information in the supervision platform.

　　This time, on September 21, the management department again requested Didi (Shanghai) to provide the following materials to the Joint Inspection Unit in the notice of delivery:

　　1. Verify and remove the suspected 13,000 "vests", and provide the electronic version of the detailed list after comparison (including the driver’s license of the registered person and the attachment of the vehicle’s driving license).

　　2. Provide the electronic version of the platform’s full data and the number and inventory of illegal online car-hailing vehicles and drivers that have been cleaned up.

　　3. Provide a specific "rectification plan" for the problems existing in the operation and management of the platform.

　　The notice also requires Didi (Shanghai) Company to strictly implement the management requirements of prohibiting unqualified vehicles and drivers from passing the review and registration after September 11, 2018, and to immediately clear the personnel and vehicles that have been investigated and punished by law enforcement departments for illegal passenger transportation on the Internet, and establish a corresponding long-term control mechanism.

　　The relevant person in charge of Didi (Shanghai) company once again promised that the work of full access to data will be completed in the near future. Since September 10, Shanghai has been cleaning up non-compliant drivers in batches. The cleaned drivers are involved in the failure of the three-certificate verification, the background check does not meet the relevant conditions, and the people and vehicles do not match the complaints. As of now, the number of cleanup is nearly 12,000.

　　"It can be said that the current rectification work of Didi is not in place, it is not accurate, and the degree of cooperation between enterprises needs to be improved. According to the relevant requirements of the Ministry of Transport, if an enterprise refuses to make corrections, it may request the relevant departments to take measures such as suspending the release, removing mobile Internet applications (APPs) from the shelves, stopping internet services, stopping networking or shutting down for rectification," said Wang Xufeng, head of the legal department of the Shanghai Municipal Transportation Commission Law Enforcement Corps.

　　In the next step, the inspection team will send the sampling comparison, recent investigation and handling cases, street investigation and handling personnel, vehicles and suspected vehicles of vests to Didi Chuxing Shanghai Branch in writing, and ask them to make further comparison and verification and issue a written explanation. For non-compliance, it will be implemented within a time limit for rectification.

　　From the afternoon of September 7th, the Shanghai Municipal Transportation Commission Law Enforcement Corps, the Shanghai Public Security Bureau Traffic Police Corps, and the Shanghai Public Security Bureau Network Security Corps jointly entered Didi (Shanghai) Company to carry out safety special project inspections.

　　On the afternoon of September 11, the Shanghai Municipal Transportation Commission Law Enforcement Corps, the Shanghai Public Security Bureau Traffic Police Corps, and the Shanghai Urban Transportation Management Department once again jointly carried out a special project inspection of Didi (Shanghai) Company.

　　On the 11th, the Shanghai Municipal Transportation Commission Law Enforcement Corps and the Municipal Transportation Management Office jointly issued a notice, requiring Didi to submit written materials to the Joint Inspection Team before September 14, 2018, including: the list of registered vehicles and drivers on the platform in Shanghai, the cleaning up of illegal vehicles and drivers on the platform in Shanghai, the mechanism of sending orders and generating tariffs on the platform in Shanghai, the uploading of full data and real-time data on the platform in Shanghai, and the implementation of passenger safety measures on the platform in Shanghai.

　　At the same time, according to the rectification requirements, Didi shall submit the specific work schedule of five rectification items to the Joint Inspection Unit before September 17, 2018, including: the implementation of the cleaning of vehicles with empty plates registered on the platform in Shanghai within the time limit; the implementation of the cleaning of non-registered vehicles and non-registered drivers on the platform in Shanghai within the time limit; the implementation of the full real-time upload of platform data in Shanghai within the time limit; the implementation of platform passenger safety measures in Shanghai within the time limit; and the prohibition of non-compliant vehicles and drivers from registering on the platform in Shanghai.

Andy Daxiu abs

Andy rode his motorcycle on the high platform to sing

　　　 "Andy Lau’s Unforgettable World Tour" came to the 80,000-person stadium in Shanghai; nearly 80,000 enthusiastic fans not only paralyzed Shanghai’s traffic, but also caused long queues in surrounding restaurants and shops to multiply. The last concert in Ningbo on May 4 forced some companies near the stadium to leave work early to avoid traffic congestion, which became an exception for employees to leave work early except for long holidays such as the Spring Festival.

　　　 On May 7, the scene of tens of thousands of people crowding outside the 80,000-person stadium in Shanghai began at 3:00 pm. Nearly 80,000 people not only exploded the stadium, but also sang the stadium. At 7:45, when the conference announced the official start of "Andy Lau’s Unforgettable World Tour Concert", the audience was full of joy. The surging mood that had been waiting for a long time broke out when Andy Wai appeared from the top of the stage in a white suit. The dazzling LED that was nearly 100 meters and almost the same size as the stage shocked the audience, and everyone was shocked by the momentum of the integration under the stage. Everyone screamed frantically and took out their cameras and mobile phones to rush to shoot, so that Andy Lau, who had sung "Lone Star Tears", "Providence", and "Thank You for Your Love", couldn’t help but say, "Please put down your mobile phones, how can there be applause without hands? Artists need applause the most." As soon as he finished speaking, applause and screams rang out like thunder.　

　　　 Seeing the enthusiasm of the fans 80,000 the scene, Andy also randomly divided the scene into left and right sides, conducting the chorus PK competition of "Forgetting Love Water" and "Love You for 10,000 Years". After singing on the right, singing on the left, tens of thousands of spectators on both sides sang in a chorus. The enthusiasm of the audience moved Andy for his consistent support for the past 30 years. Finally, tears burst when singing the encore, and the audience in the audience followed suit. The nearly two and a half hours of thunderous Shanghai concert ended in this touching and joyous atmosphere.

　　With the strong recovery of the performance market, large-scale concerts have blossomed everywhere this year. While fans are hooked, they are also plagued by scalpers’ ticket speculation.

　　To this end, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism and the Ministry of Public Security issued a notice in September this year that large-scale commercial performances with more than 5,000 people require a strong real-name system for purchasing tickets, that is, only one ticket can be purchased per ID document for each performance, and the identity information of the ticket buyer and the attendee must be consistent and cannot be transferred. This effectively controls the situation of scalpers scalping concert tickets.

　　At the same time, many netizens reported that it was still a bit difficult to watch concerts, and even some concerts and shows were more difficult to grab than before.

　　Tickets for top artists are still hard to grab, and the speed is "unrealistic"

　　In October this year, the Shanghai station of Jay Chou’s concert fired the first shot in the "ticket defense battle": the concert implemented a strong real-name policy for the first time, and tickets could not be transferred or resold after purchase. The effect of the tough policy was immediate – a few days before the concert started, scalpers had to cut meat in order to reduce losses, and accepted a 20% compensation.

　　After Jay Chou’s concert in Shanghai, other artists began to force real-name ticket purchases one after another, effectively controlling scalpers’ reselling of concert tickets. This made many fans applaud, saying that they could finally grab tickets quickly on the ticketing website, and some shows didn’t even need to be grabbed, "you can buy tickets at a leisurely pace"; some artists even sold tickets at a discount, which was cheaper than the price.

　　But at the same time, it is still difficult to grab tickets for top artists after the real-name system. On November 18, CCTV held an online survey on "Is it easier to grab tickets after the real-name system for concerts?" 34,000 of the 61,000 who participated in the poll chose "’Monks have more than porridge,’ it is still a little difficult," and only 7,581 chose "It is much easier than before." This shows that after the strong real-name system, it is still difficult to buy tickets for concerts.

　　Tickets for these concerts are difficult to grab, mainly because there are too many people who want to see them, and the number of tickets is limited. Take Jay Chou’s Carnival Tour Tianjin Station as an example. According to Damai.com, there are 4 rounds of ticket grabbing opportunities for concerts. Nearly 130,000 tickets are released, and more than 5.20 million people are marked "want to see" – the chance of grabbing tickets is very small.

　　Xiao Fei, a veteran performance planner who has planned many large-scale concerts, analyzed in an interview with a reporter from Beijing Youth Daily: "From a positive perspective, it shows that the supply and demand relationship is not balanced, and under the seller’s market, the value of the goods themselves is greater. In layman’s terms, the market appeal of artists is strong, that is, it is difficult to find a vote."

　　There are less professional scalpers for passers-by?

　　In an interview with a reporter from Beiqing Daily, it was found that after the real-name system was strengthened, a new industrial chain emerged: some "scalpers" developed software specially used to grab tickets, and even formed a "thousand people to grab tickets" team. They will bind the customer’s ID information in advance to help grab tickets – if successful, a high fee will be charged; if the ticket is not grabbed, 100% refund will be returned to the customer.

　　The interview found that these robbed in various ways are only "retail scalpers".

　　Mayday fans Nian Nian (pseudonym), who started chasing concerts in 2012, told the Beijing Youth Daily reporter that after the strong real-name system, "institutional scalpers" and ticketing companies began to pay crazy premiums. "The’passer-by scalpers’ that have been boycotted by many people are rare under the strong real-name system, but professional scalpers earn more. Ordinary consumers are also more restricted: I finally found a dozen friends to grab two tickets, but because it is not my information, I can’t transfer them. Ordinary consumers are helpless to grab tickets, but scalpers are’more ways than more difficult ‘."

　　Inside tickets are in demand? Grandstand tickets are 2 to 3 times premium

　　Generally, the price of grabbing tickets ranges from a few hundred to a few thousand yuan, and the more expensive ones are some premium internal tickets, including the so-called "invitation letter" of internal tickets. Shortly after the official announcement of the "TFBOYS Ten Year Appointment" concert in July and August this year, there were media reports that the first row of tickets had been priced by "scalpers" to 200,000 yuan each, and the second and third rows were also 150,000 yuan each. There are even chat records showing that the first five rows of single tickets for the concert were fried to 500,000 yuan, and the price of a first row ticket was 2 million yuan. These internal tickets can be scanned to enter personal names, ID cards and other information, which are displayed in the electronic ticket folder of the official ticketing platform and cannot be transferred. Soon, the organizers announced that there were no invitations to the concert, calling on the public not to believe in "scalpers".

　　Recently, the reporter consulted an online ticketing customer service as a consumer and learned that in the recent Times Youth Troupe Macau concert, the seat with a ticket of 780 yuan reached a maximum of 13,000 yuan, and the seat with a ticket of 2,600 yuan reached a maximum of 26,000 yuan. In the current market, it is normal for ordinary stand tickets to have a 2 to 3 times premium. It seems that the premium for concert tickets for top artists is very serious. Many netizens therefore asked: How did some scalpers and ticketing agencies get these tickets?

　　Meng Lun, a veteran performer, said that although the strong real-name system is currently being implemented smoothly, it is not easy to completely resist "scalpers". There will always be new scalping models in the market. "When the market is hot, there will be various channels to sell tickets to scalpers. Regulators need to adjust their management methods in a timely manner."

　　Some industry insiders have also revealed that the primary ticketing market, which openly snatches tickets, is just one of many channels for the organizers. Some organizers and official ticketing platforms resell some tickets to scalpers at high prices in order to make money, resulting in only a small part of the actual public ticket sales. In this way, it even creates the illusion that the concert is hot and one ticket is hard to find, which facilitates the sale of high-priced tickets in the secondary market.

　　"Out of stock registration" There is a singer behind the concert, and the stands are empty.

　　Falsehoods are always exposed.

　　The audience at the Guangzhou station of Huang Zitao’s 2023 tour concert found that there were still many empty seats in the infield and stands until the concert was about to start. On a ticketing platform, the original price of 2368 yuan for the infield ticket was only 262 yuan, and fans could "upgrade for free". Such "benefits" made the audience who bought tickets at the original price very unbalanced – it turned out that the official ticketing platform had marked "out of stock registration" on all ticket files early on, but now it seems that it is obviously not true. The original two concerts were scheduled, but the organizers later announced that the artist was sick and lost his voice and cancelled the performance on November 17. Tickets for the 18th were sold out except for the two stalls with the lowest price of 368 yuan and 502 yuan. Therefore, some people speculate that the reason for the cancellation of the concert on the 17th may also be related to the poor ticket sales. In addition to the "broken" tickets, the infield seats were vacant and the order was chaotic. Some people even said in Moments that they went in without spending money – because there were too many empty seats at the scene, they went in to help fill the number of people. Some netizens said that they could buy tickets at 9.9 yuan on a certain platform.

　　observe

　　There’s a lot more work to be done.

　　Obviously, the strong real-name system still needs to be improved – although many concerts have begun to implement "one person, one certificate, one face", there are still some organizers who do not strictly enforce it.

　　At the same time, many consumers report the inconvenience caused by the implementation of the strong real-name system: when ordinary consumers need to refund tickets due to some force majeure factors, the platform does not have a comprehensive solution. Not long ago, the Jiangsu Provincial Consumer Protection Committee put forward suggestions on the purchase of tickets under the strong real-name system, believing that the sports and entertainment industry can refer to the railway ticketing mechanism, improve the process of ticket purchase and refund, improve the after-sales services mechanism, and establish a complete "alternate" and "refund" process to avoid the flood of scalpers in the secondary market.

　　Xiaofei believes that the strong real-name system has dealt a great blow to scalpers and effectively promoted the healthy development of the performance market. At the same time, how to balance the real-name system with the normal demand of refund and transfer is also a test for market managers. "The big reason for the organizers’ premium is that they claim that the tickets have been sold out. Whether it is really sold out requires the relevant departments to strengthen supervision and strengthen the crackdown. In the era of big data, I believe this is not difficult to achieve. Looking forward to a more prosperous and orderly performance market, more rational and mature consumers, and more convenient management measures."

The most powerful film investment enterprises: LeTV and Pony Pentium.

Gao Shouzhi, President of Yi En Consulting


Best box office marketing film: and

　　　　　Recently, at the 14th Shanghai International Film Festival Film Industry Awards Banquet, Mr. Gao Shouzhi, President of Yi En Consulting, delivered a keynote speech entitled "Glory and Dream of China Film" to share three development trends of China film market: further intensification of industrial integration, active integration into global cooperation and new mechanism of film investment and financing environment. In addition, Mr. Gao Shouzhi put forward the concept of "film investment bank" for the first time and formally established and released the business, providing an agent consultant for film projects and funders.

　　　 In the past year, the China film market has accelerated the integration of cross-industry resources, which shows that some non-traditional film industry resources, such as new media companies, local TV stations, newspaper groups and overseas media organizations, have actively invested in the development of China film market through capital and direct opening up of new businesses. In addition, China film market is actively integrating into the global film industry cooperation through co-production and transnational capital operation.

　　　 Zhang Pimin, deputy director of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, mentioned in the opening speech of the Shanghai Film Festival that the development trend of China’s film industry has met the conditions for establishing a new system of film investment and financing, and encouraged financial institutions to increase financial support for film enterprises and improve the financing environment. According to the data of Yien Consulting, in 2010, the cost of domestic film production rose, and several large-scale productions with investment exceeding 100 million appeared. However, as far as the overall financing environment is concerned, there are still many problems to be solved urgently. The main reasons for the imperfect film financing environment in China are the lack of guarantee mechanism for finished films, the lack of intermediary service agencies and the imperfect overseas copyright pre-sale channels. Banks, film funds, cultural industry investment funds, property rights exchanges and other financial institutions also suffer from the lack of a sound risk control mechanism and the inability to quickly connect projects and face the bottleneck of film investment.

　　　 Under this background, Yi En Consulting, as a leading domestic entertainment industry research institution, officially launched the film investment banking service and played the role of a third-party institutional platform. It will rely on enbase’s powerful box office statistics database, combine Yi En’s experience with overseas box office forecasting models and risk assessment systems, and form a powerful expert advisory group to provide comprehensive services for the project from early positioning and packaging, risk assessment and post-development research, and provide professional agency consulting services for financial investment institutions and film project parties, and build an investment and financing platform.

　　　 At present, the film investment banking services of Yi En Consulting are still developing, and the number of partners is gradually increasing. Two banks, three law firms, a film-finishing guarantee institution, two copyright exchanges and four financial investment institutions have reached preliminary cooperation agreements with Yien Consulting. Yi En Consulting welcomes more film investment institutions to join in and make their own contribution to promoting the healthy development of China’s film financing market and improving China’s film industry chain.

After the poor Baowo car was divided, Xiaomi, who was qualified to build a car, was finally able to build a factory to build a car. At the recent group meeting in Beijing, Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun confirmed that the progress of Xiaomi’s car-making project exceeded expectations and it can be mass-produced in the first half of next year.

The long-awaited "young people’s first car" is coming, but in 2022, the share of new energy vehicles in China has accounted for about 25% of the total car sales, and there are a wide variety of new energy vehicles. Is Xiaomi really worth looking forward to?

The true nature of price/performance ratio, can Xiaomi Automobile inherit?

Cost performance is undoubtedly the most distinctive feature of Xiaomi’s mobile phones, computers and other products. The same price configuration is relatively high, and the same configuration price is relatively low. In 2011, when the low-end chip mobile phone dared to sell for three or four thousand yuan, Xiaomi’s mobile phone with flagship core dared to sell for 1999 yuan. With its high cost performance, Xiaomi’s mobile phone has gained a large number of digital talents and young consumers soon after it went on the market.

So, can Xiaomi’s cost-effective concept continue to the automobile?

Earlier, Xiaomi Automobile has exposed some news on the Internet, including some configuration, design and price of the model. According to the exposed information, Xiaomi’s first product is a high-end car, with two versions, both equipped with Qualcomm’s next-generation intelligent cockpit chip and NVIDIA’s Orin X chip, equipped with lidar and a 15.6-inch central control screen.

Orin X is not uncommon in high-end models in the past two years, but NVIDIA has released a stronger Thor car chip, which is 8 times more powerful than the former, and the real car may be upgraded. The application of NVIDIA chip and lidar is to provide support for autonomous driving technology. In official website, Xiaomi Automobile introduced its own self-driving technology in great length, and plans to enter the first camp of the industry in 2024.

The low version of Xiaomi Automobile is equipped with BYD lithium iron phosphate battery, based on 400V platform, and the high version is equipped with Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited Kirin battery, based on 800V platform. In terms of system, Xiaomi, who was born in the Internet and mobile phone industry, has a high probability of making a system that is not bad, and can be interconnected with Xiaomi Smart Home. At this stage, Xiaomi has launched CarWith, which is similar to Apple CarPlay, allowing users to experience some functions of the Xiaomi car system in advance.

Whether the configuration is attractive enough or not depends on the price. There are many rumors about the price of Xiaomi car on the Internet. Some people broke the news that Xiaomi car started at more than 100,000 yuan, while others said that the low version started at 300,000 yuan, and the high version started at 350,000 yuan to 400,000 yuan, which is a big gap. Previously, Lei Jun had initiated a vote in Weibo, asking about the price of the first electric car that Rice Noodle hoped Xiaomi would get. 150,000 ~ 200,000 yuan won the most votes, followed by 200,000 ~ 300,000 yuan, and the option above 300,000 yuan got the least votes.

According to the current situation of the new energy automobile industry, Xiaolei thinks that the price of Xiaomi’s first car with low version will be around 200,000 ~ 280,000 yuan, and the high version is expected to be 280,000 ~ 350,000 yuan.Apart from Weibo’s votes, the most important thing is that the new energy automobile industry is in a period of rapid development, and it is appropriate to enter the high-end market now, but the price is too high for new brands to support, and 200,000 yuan is the starting line for high-end cars.

What’s more, Xiaomi’s configuration is not bad. The low-profile version is likely to lose BYD Seal, as well as the flagship chips of NVIDIA and Qualcomm, and the price is unlikely to be less than 200,000 yuan. Although it is said that some high prices have been exposed on the Internet, it is not certain that Lei Jun will "persuade executives overnight" to reduce the price of cars. Cost-effective ratio is probably the least worrying place for Xiaomi Automobile. Even Lei Jun once said that Xiaomi Automobile mainly relies on software fees to make profits.

However, whether the first product launched by a new brand of Xiaomi Automobile is mature, whether the after-sales service system is perfect, and whether it is direct sales or distribution mode are all places that may worry consumers.The most important thing is that Xiaomi seems to be a little too low-key, which is not a good thing for new brands entering the automobile industry.

The low-key millet is in sharp contrast with the high-profile Meizu.

In the mobile phone industry, Xiaomi has always been high-profile. As the top five mobile phone manufacturers in China, Xiaomi has a high-profile qualification. However, after entering the automobile industry, Xiaomi is very low-key. Instead, it is Meizu, Huawei and other original mobile phone industries, and the manufacturers entering the automobile field are extremely high-profile.

Huawei, an industry giant, can say that Meizu has always regarded Xiaomi as its main rival since it entered the mobile phone industry. However, due to various problems, there are many fans, but the sales volume is not high enough. It has been a year and a half since the release of Meizu 18s series, and there is no new machine released in Meizu. However, the voice of Meizu has never been quiet, but it has announced its own plans in a high-profile manner, such as the layout of Meizu 20 and Meizu in the automotive field.

Meizu has announced that it will hold the largest new product launch conference in the history of Meizu at Shanghai Benz Cultural Center on March 14th. If there is no accident, at this conference, Meizu will talk about its plans in the automotive field like Xiaomi. In essence, Xiaomi and Meizu have taken different paths. Meizu and Huawei have become supply chain enterprises in the automotive field, mainly relying on cooperation with car companies. Meizu’s primary partner is Geely.

For Meizu and Huawei, high-profile can not only attract consumers, but also attract partners. Xiaomi, on the other hand, has to build its own car and take the asset-oriented route. Compared with building gimmicks and creating momentum, it is more important to develop steadily on the ground now.As for the product momentum, compared with other new car-making forces, Xiaomi’s biggest advantage is that Xiaomi itself is not a new brand, and it can drain cars from the mobile phone business.

Building a car by yourself is much more risky than being a supply chain enterprise. Therefore, when Xiaomi announced to build a car, many netizens and the media thought that Xiaomi was going the wrong way. Let’s not say that there are many new forces to build cars. Those old car companies are insurmountable mountains for Xiaomi. Changan Automobile, Geely Automobile, Great Wall Motor, Chery Automobile and other car companies, the sales of electric vehicles are all overwhelming, but the voice on the Internet is small.

Xiaomi’s car-making is a gamble, with high risks and high returns. If you win the bet, you will win everything. Even if you lose the bet, you will sell the car-making qualification, assets and technology, thanks to some money.

At present, it is too early to discuss the route of making cars between Xiaomi and Meizu. Even Meizu may not have the will to build their own cars. Even Huawei, which once said that it would never build a car, put Huawei logo on the posters in the world, and it has a very high control over the products. Meizu doesn’t build cars, maybe it’s just because Meizu doesn’t have enough inside information and financial resources.

As consumers, we don’t care which route of Xiaomi, Meizu and Huawei is more correct. What we care about is that the value of Xiaomi car is not worth waiting for.

The industry is ever-changing, is Xiaomi car worth waiting for?

In 2021, Celeste Huawei’s SF5 was officially released. As the first product jointly developed by Huawei and Celeste, this car gained a huge momentum after it went on the market, and it received 3,000 orders in two days. As a result, it was weak and did not achieve too high sales. After the second-generation products went on the market, they sold more than 75,000 vehicles in 10 months before they really entered the first echelon of the new force of building cars.

In 2022 and 2023, the new energy automobile industry became more and more mature. Some established automobile companies released new brands to enter the market, and some new car-making forces quietly fell behind. Even in Tucki and Wenzhou, sales in the first two months of this year showed signs of falling behind. In order to seize market share, car companies have released new products, and the industry is changing with each passing day. Is it worth waiting for the late Xiaomi car?

To be honest, Xiaomi’s first product has a high probability of testing water, which may be immature in all aspects and difficult to measure. The hardware and software of this car will not be bad, but after the inexperienced Xiaomi integrates it, there may be some incongruities. For consumers who pursue perfect products, the reliability of Xiaomi’s first-generation cars may be a little worse.

No product can mature as soon as it comes up. Only by constantly updating and iterating and perfecting the existing problems of the product can the product finally become perfect.Xiaomi also understands this truth, so the first product has not been released and put into mass production, and the second generation product of Xiaomi Automobile has been exposed. The internal code of this product is "Lemans Le Mans", which is the city where the extremely famous "24-hour Le Mans Endurance Race" is located.

With the experience of the first generation of products, Xiaomi’s second generation car will be more perfect in both software and hardware, as well as in the sales and after-sales service system.Xiaomi Le Mans Automobile is expected to be launched in 2025, and then it may be the best time for rice noodles to buy Xiaomi Automobile.

　　Beijing, Nov. 16 (Leng Yuyang) Recently, Jiangsu, Shanghai and Beijing have launched the recruitment of civil servants in 2020. Compared with last year, the number of planned recruits in the three places has increased to varying degrees. In addition, all three places will implement graded and classified examinations in this year’s recruitment, and talent selection is more targeted.

　　Beijing launched the recruitment of civil servants’ provincial examinations, and registration began on November 18th.

　　On the 15th, the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Civil Servants issued the Announcement on the Recruitment of Civil Servants by Beijing Organs at All Levels in 2020, which will organize and implement the recruitment of civil servants at the level of first-level chief clerk and below and other equivalent ranks by Beijing organs at all levels in 2020, and the non-directional Selected Graduates recruitment in Beijing in 2020 will be incorporated into the recruitment of civil servants simultaneously. This recruitment will start on November 18th.

　　The announcement made it clear that except for some special positions and professional positions, municipal authorities mainly recruit people who have been in grassroots work experience for more than 2 years. Grassroots posts such as streets, towns and villages in hard and remote areas can appropriately lower the entry threshold.

　　In terms of registration conditions for non-Beijing freshmen, this year’s policy is not much different from last year. According to the announcement, fresh graduates from ordinary colleges and universities in Beijing who are not from Beijing are undergraduate or above; Graduates who have obtained "three good students", "outstanding student cadres" or "outstanding student scholarships" at or above the school level during their highest academic qualifications in ordinary colleges and universities outside Beijing can apply for the exam.

　　It is worth noting that, compared with last year’s recruitment announcement in Beijing, the announcement issued this time increased the number of people who were expelled from the Communist Party of China (CPC) Party membership, and those who were legally listed as joint disciplinary targets for dishonesty were not allowed to apply. At the same time, the announcement also proposed for the first time that the qualification examination runs through the whole process of recruitment. If it is found that the applicant does not meet the qualification requirements in all aspects of recruitment, the recruitment agency may cancel his qualification for registration or employment.

　　"In this year’s recruitment announcement in Beijing, in the face of different recruitment groups, such as fresh graduates, foreign students, retired soldiers, disabled people and other candidates, the recruitment requirements of the Beijing exam can be described as more professional and humanized." For example, Li Xiaotong, an expert in the public examination of Huatu Education, said that "graduation on time" became one of the recruitment conditions for the first time in the recruitment of civil servants in Beijing in 2020, which means that students who have delayed graduation due to some factors will no longer be recruited.

　　Provide more jobs, and the recruitment scale of provincial examinations has increased.

　　Previously, Shanghai and Jiangsu provinces have started the recruitment of civil servants in their respective provinces in 2020, and the registration has now ended.

　　According to the reporter’s statistics, the Beijing civil service examination plans to recruit 3620 people. Among them, there are 3162 ordinary positions; 223 people in Selected Graduates; 190 positions for retired college students; 20 positions for the disabled; 25 people in special positions.

　　In the last year, in 2019, Beijing authorities at all levels planned to recruit 3,243 civil servants. Compared with the previous year, the scale of this recruitment has expanded by about 11.6%.

　　Similar to the situation in Beijing, the number of civil servants recruited in Shanghai and Jiangsu has also increased to varying degrees this year.

　　Among them, in 2020, Jiangsu Province plans to enroll 7985 civil servants and staff of reference management units. Compared with last year, there were 1478 plans, an increase of 22.7%.

　　In Shanghai, in 2020, authorities at all levels in the city and institutions (units) managed according to the Civil Service Law launched a total of 1,847 recruitment positions, and planned to recruit 3,803 people. The number of planned recruits increased by 680 compared with 2019.

　　It is more targeted to explore the selection of graded and classified examinations in many places

　　Although there are differences in the registration time of provincial examinations in the three provinces, from the examination time, the three provinces will conduct written examinations on the same weekend in early December.

　　Among them, the written examination time for public subjects in Shanghai and Jiangsu provinces is December 7, 2019, and the examination time for public subjects in Beijing is December 8, 2019.

　　It is noteworthy that Beijing, Shanghai and Jiangsu will all implement graded and classified examinations in this year’s recruitment. Among them, this year’s announcement in Beijing clearly put forward that "the principle of classification and grading should be reflected in the examination content". Li Xiaotong introduced that this move is to make test questions for grassroots positions such as posts at or above the district level (including district level) and townships (streets) in public subject examinations.

　　Shanghai will be divided into two types of papers: A and B. The "candidates" will take the A-type papers for positions with more than two years of grassroots work experience, and B-type papers for positions with "unlimited candidates". In Jiangsu, the public subject examinations in this province are divided into three categories: A, B and C according to the job category.

　　"Don’t use the same test paper, but aim at the actual employment needs of the post, and the positions in each region are tested separately, which is more professional and targeted for talent screening and quality requirements." Li Xiaotong said.

　　What is the difference between "provincial examination" and "national examination"?

　　Compared with the familiar "national examination", what is the difference between the "provincial examination" of civil servants?

　　According to experts’ analysis, the recruitment of civil servants by the central organs and their directly affiliated institutions is also known as the "national examination", which recruits civil servants for the central and state organs and their directly affiliated institutions nationwide. The "provincial examination" for civil servants is to recruit civil servants for provincial, city, county and township organs in each province and hold it within the province.

　　According to Li Xiaotong, most provinces focus the provincial examination on the written examination from March to May every year, some provinces hold the provincial examination for civil servants in the second half of the year, and a few provinces also take the examination twice a year in spring and autumn. In recent years, in addition to Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu and a few other provinces that started the recruitment of civil servants earlier, more and more provinces set the time for starting the written examination of civil servant recruitment on the same day. Among the candidates, this is also called the "civil servant joint examination". (End)

　　　　The term "United Nations Army" first appeared in the history of the United Nations in the Korean War. Under the banner of the United Nations, the United States organized 16 troops to intervene militarily in the Korean issue, expanded the Korean War, and spread the war to the border areas of China, threatening China’s national security.

　　　　The Korean War began on June 25th, 1950 and ended on July 27th, 1953, which lasted for three years, one month and two days. During this period, the United States manipulated the United Nations to pass a number of resolutions, pieced together 16 troops to form the "United Nations Army" and put them into the Korean battlefield.

　　　　What kind of troops is the "United Nations Army"? Which countries’ troops does it consist of? How does it pull the "banner" of the United Nations as a "tiger skin"? The author systematically disclosed the inside story of the "United Nations Army" in the Korean War by synthesizing various materials and interviewing relevant experts for readers.

　　　　The formation of the "United Nations Army" was premeditated.

　　　　After the Korean War broke out, while the United States intervened by force, it manipulated the United Nations to adopt a series of resolutions, which put on a legal coat for its armed intervention. In fact, it is the established policy of the United States to use the United Nations to take "collective action" in Asia, which can be said to have been planned for a long time.

　　　　When the victory of the Second World War was in sight, the heads of allied countries put forward their ideas on the fate of North Korea when discussing the post-war international arrangements. In November 1943, at the Cairo Conference, the heads of the United States, Britain and China wrote in the Cairo Declaration jointly signed: "My three major countries are concerned about the slave treatment of the Korean people and decided to make North Korea free and independent for a considerable period of time." In February 1945, at the Yalta Conference, US President Roosevelt proposed to Stalin: "North Korea should be managed by a representative of the Soviet Union, an American representative and a China representative, and the shorter the trusteeship period, the better." Stalin agreed and suggested that Britain should also be invited to participate in the trusteeship. Therefore, the plan of temporary trusteeship for North Korea by the United States, the Soviet Union, China and Britain after the war was decided at the Yalta Conference.

　　　　However, before the four countries reached a specific agreement on the trusteeship of North Korea, in early August 1945, Soviet troops launched an attack on the Japanese Kwantung Army stationed in northeast China and North Korea. At this time, the nearest American ground troops to North Korea are still 600 miles away in Okinawa. On August 10th, the State Council held an emergency meeting to discuss the issue of surrender in North Korea.

　　　　Assistant Secretary of State Dunn suggested that the area where American troops accepted Japanese surrender should move northward as far as possible. However, Colonel Rusk Dean, the chief of staff of Defense Minister Marshall, pointed out that it was difficult for the military to enter North Korea before the Soviet army because of the lack of troops to immediately invest in North Korea and the factors such as time and space. As a result, Assistant Secretary of the Army Mike and Colonel Charles Bonisti put forward "a"

　　　　As far as possible to the north, but not "rejected by the Soviet Union", the two had envisaged dividing the boundaries of surrender according to the administrative areas of North Korea, but there was no information at the moment. In a hurry, they noticed that the 38th parallel of north latitude (referred to as the "38th parallel" for short) on the map almost passed through central Korea, and that Seoul (now Seoul) and its nearby concentration camps were all south of the "38th parallel", so they decided to use the "38th parallel" as the dividing line of the surrender area. This proposal was quickly agreed by the US military and the State Council, and was approved by President Truman on August 14th.

　　　　On August 15th, Truman sent a telegram to Stalin, informing the Supreme Allied Commander douglas macarthur of the "General Command No.1" on the details of Japanese surrender. One of the contents of this order was to take the "38th parallel" as the dividing line between the United States and the Soviet Union in the surrender area of the Korean peninsula.

　　　　On August 16, Stalin replied that he "basically did not object to the contents of the order" and did not raise any objection to the issue of North Korea’s demarcation line.

　　　　Therefore, the Soviet Union and the United States successively sent troops to North Korea, where two surrender areas were divided by the "38th parallel", and the United States and the Soviet Union accepted the surrender of the Japanese invaders. Senior Japanese commanders, land, sea, air and auxiliary forces stationed in North Korea, Manchuria, Sakhalin Island and Thousand Islands, north of the "38th parallel", surrendered to the Supreme Commander of the Soviet Far East Army; The Japanese government’s base camp, senior Japanese commanders stationed in Japan and its surrounding islands, North Korea and Ryukyu Islands south of the "38th parallel", as well as land, sea, air and auxiliary forces, surrendered to the supreme commander of the US Pacific Army.

　　　　By the time the surrender orders of the Soviet Union and the United States reached the battlefield, the Soviet army had crossed the "38th parallel" and was advancing towards Seoul. After receiving the order of the "demarcation line", the Soviet army withdrew to the north of the "38th parallel". On September 8th, the first batch of American 7th Infantry Division who arrived in North Korea landed in Incheon and occupied the south of the "38th parallel" of North Korea.

　　　　It is this temporary dividing line that was surrendered, and later became the "national border" that divided North and South Korea. South of the demarcation line is ruled by the government of the Republic of Korea headed by Li Chengwan, which is supported by the United States; North of the dividing line is led by the Labor Party headed by Kim Il Sung, who is supported by the Soviet Union. At the end of 1948 and in June 1949, the Soviet Union and the United States successively withdrew their troops from North Korea.

　　　　The military significance of the "38th parallel" to surrender is only superficial and temporary, but its political and strategic significance is long-term. After the end of World War II, the United States urgently needed to build the Korean Peninsula into a frontier to curb communism for the sake of global strategy. In a letter to President Truman, the representative of the President of the United States, Paul Lai, said: "Although North Korea is a small country, judging from our overall military strength, our responsibility here is not great, but this place is a battlefield for ideological struggle, and our entire victory in Asia depends on this struggle." This statement represents the view of American policy makers.

　　　　From March 29 to May 10, 1948, the US occupation forces dispatched tens of thousands of military and police officers to forcibly hold universal suffrage in South Korea. After Li Chengwan came to power through unilateral illegal elections in South Korea, he was instigated by the United States to arrogantly shout: "To solve the North-South division, it must be solved by war." And put forward the slogan of "unification in the north". Under the provocation of Li Chengwan, from January to October, 1949, South Korean military and police launched 432 armed provocations against North Korea on the "38th parallel".

　　　　On January 12, 1950, US Secretary of State Acheson gave a speech entitled "Asian Crisis-A Review of American Policy". In his speech, Acheson drew a circular defense line in the western Pacific to deal with the military threat of the communist camp. This defense line runs along the Aleutian Islands, passes through the Ryukyu Islands until the Philippines, and South Korea and Taiwan Province are excluded from the defense line. He said that when these two regions are attacked militarily, "we must first rely on the attacked nation to resist, and then rely on the responsibility of the entire civilized world under the UN Charter". This set the tone for American policy towards North Korea and Taiwan Province, that is, relying on "United Nations Action" to deal with military actions in these two regions. This policy decided that the United States used the form of "United Nations Action" to organize "United Nations Forces" to intervene in the Korean War.

　　　　It was under the instigation of the United States and the provocation of Li Chengwan’s "northward reunification" that the Korean War broke out.
