On the other hand, after experiencing a wave of Internet car building, many technology companies have chosen a more rational cooperation situation. At this point, Avita Technology Co., Ltd. was born, aggregating the resource advantages of Changan Automobile, Huawei, and Ningde Times, and becoming the most talked-about new brand.

On November 5, Avita Technology, a subsidiary of Changan Automobile, completed the first round of strategic financing and introduced three new strategic investors in the form of a consortium, with a total amount of 2.42 billion yuan. It is currently awaiting the final approval of the relevant departments of the state market supervision. If it goes well, the Ningde Times Consortium will hold 28.99% of the shares and become the second largest shareholder of Avita Technology.

　Compared with Dongfeng’s Landmap and BAIC’s Extreme Fox, despite the successful exploration of the UNI series, Changan’s high-end brand seems to have come a little late. In fact, Avita’s predecessor was Changan NIO, which was jointly established as early as 2018. The joint venture project has not made significant progress since its birth. On May 20 this year, Changan Automobile announced that Changan NIO New Energy Vehicle Technology Co., Ltd. was renamed Avita Technology Co., Ltd.

According to the plan, Changan Automobile will focus on building the technology ecosystem of technology companies in the future, and accelerate the construction of software and intelligent capabilities. And Avita Technology will become its important carrier. It is not difficult to see the importance attached to it through the new partners re-selected by Changan Automobile.

As the main body of the company, Changan Automobile has rich experience in vehicle manufacturing, and Huawei’s intelligent solutions and CATL’s advantages in the field of energy management ecology will serve as a driving force for Avita Technology to accelerate its catch-up.

According to Tan Benhong, chairperson and CEO of Avita Technology, Avita Technology will soon start a round of financing, and there will be independent listing plans in the future. And this month, the specific development strategy of the brand will be released this month, and its first high-end smart electric vehicle will also be unveiled simultaneously. In the face of today’s high-end smart new energy field melee, whether Avita can come later or talk about the product and the market.

On June 21, we learned from the official that the new M7 Ultra has been listed for 20 days and will break through 30,000 units. As of June 30, it will be able to enjoy up to 35,000 yuan in car purchase rights. According to another set of data released by the official recently, the delivery of the new M7 Ultra in 18 days has broken through 10,000 units, creating a new power model delivery record in China. At the same time, the new M7 has become the first new power model with a delivery volume of 100,000 in 2024.

In terms of power, the new car is equipped with a power system composed of a 1.5T four-cylinder turbocharger and a Huawei drive motor, and provides two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive power options. Among them, the maximum power of the range extender is 112 kilowatts, and the maximum power of the rear axle drive motor is 200 kilowatts; the four-wheel drive model adds a drive motor with a maximum power of 130 kilowatts to the front axle. The new car has a comprehensive battery life of 1300km under full oil and full power under CLTC conditions, and a pure electric battery life of 240km. Under the feeding condition, the fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is 5.6L. The four-wheel drive version of the model is accelerated by 4.8s.

Foreword:

In March 2021, JD.com Health Geriatric Medical Center was officially launched, and Ali Health launched a gold nurse at the same time.

After the epidemic, almost all major Internet companies are actively deploying medical and health care. The huge demand for health care exposed by the epidemic has accelerated the layout and entry of Internet Tech Giants into the medical and health field. Recently, from the latest trends of Internet companies such as Alibaba and JD.com in the field of health services, their determination to implement Internet thinking into elderly health services has been landed.

It is undeniable that the Internet has changed the world, and its influence continues to permeate the life scenes covering food, clothing, housing and transportation. For traditional industries, every influx of Internet Tech Giants will inevitably bring a shock to the industry. Therefore, the dynamics of Internet Tech Giants in the field of elderly care services have also been paid attention to and even given expectations. This article will start from the dynamics of Internet Tech Giants in the field of medical and health care, and then explore where the development of the Internet health industry will go.

Internet Tech Giants Deepen Digital Penetration in Health Services

As early as in the community group buying war, there was speculation that since Internet Tech Giants have entered the community business, will any of them see the rich elderly care services in the community? It has been proved that Internet Tech Giants cut into medical health, and then from medical health into elderly care services, has been gradually carried out.

1. ByteDance: A Preliminary Study in the Field of Healthcare

According to public information, as of February 1, 2021, ByteDance has made a total of 37 foreign investments in the past 13 months. In addition to continuing to increase investment in education, Enterprise Services, and gaming, it has continued to build up the ante technology and started a new layout in medical, consumer, and other fields.

Figure: Xiaohe APP under ByteDance

In November 2020, ByteDance launched its first business brand "Xiaohe Medical" in the medical and health field, and also released the Xiaohe Doctor App for doctors and the Xiaohe App for consumers. This is a comprehensive medical app that includes online consultation, medical consultation, medical records, health assessment and other functions to benchmark Ali Health, Ping An Good Doctor.

2. Baidu: Betting on "AI" – the "reputation" battle of the old Internet giants

In the early days, Baidu entered the medical and health track with medical knowledge sharing and medical information retrieval, but its health services were widely criticized, especially in the field of medical search. Baidu was strongly criticized by the public for the "Wei Zexi incident", and medical bidding advertising accidents occurred frequently. Baidu was also under tremendous pressure from public opinion.

According to public information, with the help of AI technology, Baidu has created an AI medical smart medical platform – Lingyi Zhihui, and provided medical institutions with five technical solutions: Clinical Assisted Decision System (CDSS), Fundus Image Analysis System, Medical Big Data Solution, Intelligent Pre-diagnosis Assistant, and Chronic Disease Management.

At present, this part of the business is mainly for the B-end market, providing technical support for hospitals. This also shows that in the future, user traffic in the Internet medical industry will come more from the hospital and the health end, and will also give birth to more B-end cooperation. The coordinated development of government and enterprises has become the mainstream.

3. Tencent: Investment + cooperation, cutting into the field of big health

Tencent’s current layout in the field of big health includes the layout based on Tencent’s product WeChat, the construction of service platforms, the release of AI + medical products, and the establishment of offline clinics. In addition, Tencent has also made a lot of investment in other big health industries. Tencent has successively raised $170 million for Lilac Garden and Registered Network (later renamed WeDoctor Group).

At present, Tencent’s own medical products include: WeChat smart hospital, smart hardware product sugar doctor, insurance platform micro insurance, medical science platform Tencent medical code, medical artificial intelligence platform Tencent Miying.

4. Ali/JD.com: From pharmaceutical retail to health services

JD.com and Ali, as Internet manufacturers that started as e-commerce companies, have natural advantages in engaging in medical and health care: that is, through Taobao, Tmall, Alipay, JD.com and other traffic entrances, consumer medical services can reach users in an all-round way.

Picture: Ali Health and JD.com Health are both in

Alipay, Taobao and JD.com interface to open independent sections

In addition to their common drainage advantages, their layouts in the medical and health field are similar, with their businesses mainly focusing on pharmaceutical e-commerce, Internet hospitals, smart elderly care, and consumer healthcare.

In terms of medical health, after years of layout, Ali Health and JD.com Health have developed relatively mature. In the field of smart medical care, they mainly rely on artificial intelligence. Ali and JD.com currently have a number of smart products. Its "Internet medical" business is mainly to cooperate with a number of hospitals to provide patients with one-stop services from registration, consultation to drug purchase. Of course, there are health codes, cloud consultation, consumer medical and other businesses.

In several major sectors, they have great advantages in the Internet pharmaceutical retail track and are also the most mature. But at present, they are obviously not satisfied with the existing status quo, but have chosen to withdraw from the comfort zone of drug sales and circulation, gradually focus on health services, and try to gnaw this hard bone.

In the health service section, the Alipay [Medical Health] channel has recently launched the "door-to-door care" section. Alipay users can conveniently book nurse door-to-door care services provided by gold nurses through the App, including door-to-door injections, door-to-door dressing changes, after-hospital care, post-operative rehabilitation, medical assistance, and so on.

Summary: Internet giants entering the health service market have obvious advantages in terms of capital, technology, traffic, brand influence, etc., and their layout in the medical and health field is very similar, which shows that the business model of "Internet + medical and health" has been relatively mature.

Policy support, market and epidemic catalysis, Internet + medical health ushered in new development

Internet companies have entered the medical and health track one after another, which is inseparable from the dual drive of policy and market.

1. Favorable policy support

The "Internet + medical and health" model has been apparent in the industry for many years, and the national policy level has also listed informatization and standardization as the focus of national medical and health work.

At the policy level, the relevant provisions of "Internet + Drug Circulation" have been greatly relaxed. On November 12, 2020, the State Drug Administration officially released the "Drug Network Sales Supervision and Administration Measures (exposure draft) ". Compared with the previous round of exposure draft, the striking breakthrough of this draft is to "conditionally liberalize" online prescription drug sales, and clearly define some vague areas.

Many industry insiders said that if this management method is implemented, it will help to standardize the Internet drug sales behavior, and also help brand pharmaceutical retail enterprises to develop drug Internet sales. "The sales pattern of online prescription drugs may be re-divided."

At the same time, "Internet +" is also gradually included in the coverage of medical insurance. In August 2019, the National Medical Insurance Administration issued the "Guiding Opinions on Improving the Price of" Internet + "Medical Services and Medical Insurance Payment Policies", proposing unified guidelines on the project management and pricing mechanism of "Internet + Medical Services" and incorporating them into the coverage of medical insurance.

This move is also a key link in the development of Internet medical care. The promotion of electronic medical insurance cards across the country is conducive to the implementation of medical insurance card-free payment and the development of Internet medical care.

2, our country’s pension health industry has huge growth space

The current status of China’s elderly care industry, whether it is real-estate institutional elderly care or home-based community elderly care, the common problem they face is the lack of high-quality medical services. Although there are currently elderly care products and services for the disabled and semi-disabled elderly, it is difficult to meet the needs of China’s huge number of elderly people who lack the ability to live by themselves in both quantity and quality.

Through the intervention of Internet technology, social resources and medical resources can be efficiently allocated, and resource utilization can be maximized. Implant "Internet +" into the medical and elderly care system, starting from the diversified needs of the elderly, re-examine the relationship between elderly care and medical services, alleviate the contradiction between supply and demand of elderly care services, and efficiently allocate medical resources.

3, the epidemic gave birth to Internet + health services

Previously, we have analyzed that the epidemic has spawned a community group buying market, which has caused Internet Tech Giants to flood into the community group buying war, bringing new business opportunities to community pension projects. In fact, in addition to community group buying, during the epidemic, the Internet medical industry has also shown explosive growth.

According to public data, as of June 2020, there are nearly 600 Internet hospitals listed nationwide. As of now, Internet companies such as ByteDance, Alibaba, JD.com, Tencent, Pinduoduo, and Ele.me have medical and health tracks. For the huge medical and health market inspired by the epidemic, the "rich and powerful" Internet platform now sees a stage where it can show its skills.

4. It is the general trend for Internet companies to enter the medical and health track

Picture: Meituan "Internet celebrity" small medicine cabinet

The huge pharmaceutical market has allowed Meituan takeaway, Ele.me and other takeaway platforms with huge traffic advantages to also enter the pharmaceutical e-commerce market and enter the pharmaceutical O2O market. As early as 2015, Meituan takeaway had a comprehensive cooperation with the pharmaceutical O2O platform Jingle Kuaiyao, adding a "medicine" entrance, providing users with a "28-minute home delivery" service, and jointly building the country’s largest pharmaceutical O2O platform. In terms of operation, Meituan launched the "0.01 yuan to buy a small medicine cabinet" activity some time ago, which has also attracted a large number of users.

Alibaba, JD.com and other Internet giants have turned from pharmaceutical retailers to elderly care service providers, and the current entry into elderly health services has also caused a lot of shock in the elderly care circle. The actions of Internet Tech Giants, which are industry vane, also seem to suggest that health services promoted by the Internet medical ecosystem are one of the important trends in the future development of the health care industry.

Internet companies are entering medical and health services

Key features and trends

1. Pharmaceutical e-commerce is the starting point of Internet Tech Giants’ cross-border medical and health care, and it is also its main source of revenue

Whether it is a traditional Internet medical platform such as Ping An Good Doctor, WeDoctor or a rookie in the industry such as Ali Health and JD.com Health, medicine is the main source of its revenue. According to Ali’s 2020 financial report, Ali Health’s revenue in fiscal 2020 was 9.60 billion yuan, of which, the revenue of the pharmaceutical self-operated business reached 8.13 billion yuan, accounting for 84.8%, and the pharmaceutical e-commerce platform business was 1.17 billion yuan, accounting for 12.2%. The two together accounted for 97%. The pharmaceutical e-commerce business provoked the "big beam" of Ali Health’s revenue.

Similarly, according to public information, JD.com Health’s total revenue in the first half of 2020 8.80 billion, and the revenue of pharmaceutical e-commerce was about 7.70 billion, accounting for about 87.6%.

As an established Internet medical enterprise platform, Ping An Good Doctor and WeDoctor are similar to Ali Health and JD.com Health in that their main sources of revenue are pharmaceutical e-commerce. However, compared with Internet Tech Giants, which has an inherent traffic advantage, its pharmaceutical retail does not have much advantage.

According to public information, Ping An Good Doctor’s annual revenue in 2020 was 6.866 billion yuan, and the revenue of the pharmaceutical e-commerce business "Health Mall" was 3.713 billion yuan, accounting for about 54.07%. At present, it is trying to generate revenue through health insurance.

2. Shifting from pharmaceutical e-commerce to health services, more cautious

From the current dynamic of Internet companies in the field of elderly care services, they have adopted a more cautious attitude when entering elderly care services, choosing to enter this track through investment and cooperation.

For the in-hospital scenario of health services, choose to cooperate with hospitals, for example: as of the end of March 2020, Alipay has signed more than 15,000 medical institutions, including more than 3,900 secondary and tertiary hospitals, and in 17 provinces across the country, nearly 400 tertiary hospitals are connected to medical insurance payment.

For home medical care outside the hospital, it is to choose mature enterprises in the elderly care industry to cooperate. For example, JD.com and Ali have successively cooperated with gold nurses to solve the rigid demand for nursing services in the home care group. Therefore, for home care, Internet companies will not directly enter this market, but choose to enter through cooperation.

3. From online to offline, strive to create a closed loop of health management online and offline

In recent years, in order to advance the layout of health services, Ali, Tencent, JD.com and other players have already transformed the layout of the offline health industry and seized the track. In the field of pharmaceutical retail, in order to deepen the layout in the field of big health, Ali and Zhang Zhongjing Pharmacy jointly reformed the first future pharmacy in the country. At the same time, it also injected about 454 million yuan into Sushu civilian pharmacy. After that, it officially signed a strategic investment and cooperation agreement with Chinese Health, which mainly formed a deep interest bundle with physical retail pharmacies through the form of capital.

Tencent has followed the same path, investing about $500 million in the "largest" pharmacy chain in China – the pharmacy of Hillhouse Capital Group, which has nearly 12,000 stores across four platforms and stores in North China, Southwest China, Guangdong and Henan.

The offline service scene mainly promotes intelligent elderly care in a technical way, and opens the door of the elderly care industry through the key of artificial intelligence offline. For the elderly at home, JD.com Group has launched "Home Doctor Guardian Star" smart speakers, "Elder Smartphones", and smart hardware products such as wearable devices for intelligent health management.

Picture: Tmall Genie

Alibaba uses the smart speaker "Tmall Genie" as the central control hub to build a "smart networked nursing home" to control high definition wireless cameras, various sensors, smart switches, LED smart light bulbs and other equipment. Tmall Genie cooperates with nursing homes in Beijing and other places to launch smart networked elderly care projects, providing advanced AI elderly care solutions for more nursing homes.

At the same time, they will also choose to cooperate with offline hospitals, offline health care communities, nursing homes and other institutions, and use their own advantages to empower health care institutions with digital intelligence technology to achieve online and offline integration, full-scene medical health and health care services, forming a closed loop for users from online consultation to in-hospital diagnosis to post-consultation health management.

4. The battle for talent could become the next point of competition

At present, in addition to relying too much on "selling drugs" for Internet + medical health revenue, its biggest disadvantage with traditional medical institutions lies in the training of doctor teams, especially in the Internet hospital sector, which has been opened by major Internet companies. The training of doctors is very weak.

Picture: The majority of physical hospitals are actively joining the construction wave of Internet hospitals

We can clearly see that Internet companies are playing more of the role of platform providers in Internet hospitals, consultations and other service links. This implies a problem, that is, when many Internet companies are starting to build "Internet hospitals" and "conquer cities and territories", whoever has the talent resources will have the advantage. Therefore, how to deeply bundle hospitals so that they can establish long-term cooperation with platforms? This is also the problem that Internet companies face when they smoothly enter from medical retail to health services.

The worst situation is that if there is a vicious competition, it may bring the dilemma of "choosing one of the two" to traditional hospitals. It will also cause chaos in Internet + health services and affect the market order. Of course, some Internet companies have also seen this problem, such as: JD.com Health and Geriatrics Center will cultivate geriatric medical talents through the establishment of geriatric medical schools, and promote the integrated development of medical services and health care services. And these self-trained professionals will also be transformed into talent reserves and enhance their competitiveness in the field of health services.

Conclusion:

Internet Tech Giants have unique advantages in terms of human, material and financial resources. Their competition in the field of health services will promote the upgrading of elderly health services, and will also bring more changes and innovations to the slightly dull elderly care industry. In the battle for medical and health care, whether it is a "hegemon" like Ali and JD.com or an "expert" like WeDoctor, Good Doctor, and Lilac Garden who win the final victory, it will bring a profound change to the elderly care service industry.

　

On April 1, Leslie Cheung’s last concert, which was also considered a "classic", "Passion" Ultra HD Repair, premiered globally on TME live, QQ Music, WeChat Channels, Tencent Video and other platforms.

The ultra-clear repair version of the concert by Tencent Music Entertainment Group and Universal Music’s record label Polygram jointly launched, Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab undertook the specific repair work of the concert video.

　

Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab is affiliated to Tencent CSIG Business Group (Cloud and Smart Industry Business Group). It has been engaged in video processing since 2013. One of its main responsibilities is to provide fully automated digital repair technology to various internal product departments, featuring low cost and high efficiency. Batch processing of 2D-based massive videos in Tencent Cloud and other systems.

　

According to reports, Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab is mostly engaged in the repair of movies, TV dramas and other scenes. The repair of concerts is the first time. The difficulty lies in the fact that portraits and scenes can change and switch rapidly in the concert lighting. However, Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab has previously accumulated less data in this regard.

　

Li Songnan, director of Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab, told Dongxi Entertainment that this also gave Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab the opportunity to upgrade the system and algorithm of the repair technology by repairing this concert.

　

Li Songnan said that the goal of this restoration is to ensure that the repair is as old as the old, but also to preserve the artistic effect of the concert. Due to the many scenes of the concert screen and the complicated changes caused by frequent lighting and switching, Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab has adopted the measure of "algorithmic classification processing for different scenes" to find the optimal solution in the continuous trial and error, and at the same time add manual intervention to optimize the algorithm parameters.

　

The restoration of Leslie Cheung’s concert has further enriched the restoration category of Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab. In view of the strong demand for the restoration of old films, Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab plans to further connect its own technology with various demand parties, and use technology to achieve the goal of helping the inheritance of classic culture.

　

First attempt at concert repair

Automated digital repair + manual intervention combined

　

Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab expert researcher Xia Zhen told Dongxi Entertainment that the cooperation between Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab and Polygram began in early March.

"At that time, Tencent Music Entertainment Group contacted Polygold Records, and the two sides had their own needs, and the cooperation was reached very quickly."

　

Xia Zhen introduced that since the establishment of Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab in 2013, one of the main technical directions has been fully automatic digital repair, but previously it was mainly engaged in the repair of movies, TV series, etc., and it was the first time to engage in the repair of concerts.

　

"Concert scenes are not as stable as movies and TV dramas, which are more uniform in terms of color and artistic style, and are more suitable for automatic repair through algorithms. The picture, color and scene of concerts are constantly changing and switching. Previously, the algorithm model of Tencent Cloud Lab did not process much data on concert scenes, so it would be difficult to automate repair based on algorithms," Xia Zhen said frankly.

　

In this regard, Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab is based on a set of automated processing engines.According to the different scenes of the concert screen, the algorithm classification processing is carried out to find the optimal solution in the continuous trial and error, and the manual intervention optimization is completed.

Xia Zhen gave an example. For example, for a large scene in a concert, Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab used GAN superfractions to repair it. Before the repair, such large scenes were generally blurred, but after GAN superfractions, the clarity and texture were greatly optimized. For example, if there is a lot of noise in a concert, the technical team will also reduce the noise for this scene.

　

It is understood that pure algorithm repair usually takes only two days, but this time it is a concert, so more time is spent trying different algorithms to ensure that there is a balance between the results of the algorithm and the final effect.

This is also related to the overall goal set by Tencent Cloud Lab for this fix:That is to repair the old as the old, while ensuring the improvement of image quality, it can also retain the original artistic effect of the whole concert.

　

However, Xia Zhen also said that there is no standard in the industry to define the degree of repair, "I can only say that this is the goal or purpose, and then try to adjust the algorithm towards this goal, and then try to judge according to the degree visible to the naked eye."

　

"For example, the resolution of the master tape we got at that time was only 720 × 480, which was not high. But after the repair, the relevant image quality has indeed been greatly improved. We have achieved a resolution close to 4K, and the resolution has been increased by about 6 times. The smoothness of the whole picture has also been improved. We have also made some optimizations in the frame rate, including some details of Leslie Cheung’s face, as well as his eyes, eyes, and the long fake hair he wore throughout the concert. The hair is much better than before." Xia Zhen said.

　

　

Borrow the concert to repair

Realize the dual iteration of the original technical system + algorithm

　

Li Songnan said that by repairing Leslie Cheung’s concert, Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab has also undergone a relatively large number of technical iterations, mainly including system-level iterations and algorithm-level iterations.

　

The system-level iteration is mainly on the iteration of the analysis module.According to the introduction, in terms of the repair process, it is generally divided into four steps. One is intelligent analysis, which mainly analyzes the quality of the video, including the type and degree of distortion; the other is repair, which is mainly used to repair various distortions in the video, such as the distortion that often occurs in old movies, such as noise, interlaced distortion, etc.; the third is enhancement, the goal is to make the image content look clearer and richer; the fourth is coding, that is, to restore the content of the video at as little bit rate as possible.

　

The iteration of the analysis module is the first step in the repair workflow. Li Songnan said that since the algorithm of Tencent Cloud Lab has basically not touched the type of concerts before, the video content of various industries varies greatly, especially the type and intensity of video distortion in different generations are very different. "This requires the adaptability of the iterative analysis module, so that under the principle of minimizing manual intervention, the analysis module can adaptively handle different types of videos."

　

Algorithmic iteration mainly refers to video super-resolution and face repair.

　

Li Songnan said that the original work of Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab was mainly video noise reduction and background enhancement, based on traditional algorithms.

　

"After that, many of the models on Tencent Cloud were based on AI and deep learning, but they were originally based on convolutional neural networks, and now they are expanded to use generative networks because generative networks can generate a lot of details," Li Songnan said.

　

Another major iteration is face repair.According to reports, the previous face repair in the industry was mainly based on pictures. The face repair in the video of Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab was considered an innovative attempt in the industry. At the same time, with this concert starting to be based on video repair, the lab also began to make some artificial algorithm parameter adjustments based on the algorithm.

　

Li Songnan introduced: "During this research and development process, I tried some technical methods, accumulated some good results, and became a good experience in the laboratory. Of course, there is still room for progress in the future."

　

The market demand for old film restoration is increasing day by day

Technology empowered culture

　

According to official information, the Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab is a technology-oriented laboratory under the Tencent CSIG business group, and its work mainly consists of two parts. First, it will participate in the formulation of international and domestic multimedia-related standards; second, it will provide the daily accumulated technology to Tencent Cloud, Tencent PCG (Tencent Platform and Content Business Group) and WXG (Tencent WeChat Business Group), and Tencent Music Entertainment Group and other departments internally, and export the technology to customers externally.

　

Li Songnan introduced,At present, the common "old film repair" in the market generally has two categories: physical repair and digital repair. Physical repair refers to the repair of film, including removing impurities on it and repairing deformation; while digital repair is divided into automatic repair and manual repair.

　

"At present, Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab mainly focuses on fully automated repair based on machine learning and deep learning. The goal is to use algorithmic automation to reduce the cost of subsequent manual repair and improve related efficiency through less human intervention," Li Songnan said.

　

This path choice comes from the needs faced by Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab. "Since the user videos served by Tencent Cloud Multimedia Lab are very large, it is impossible to do fine offline processing for each video, so it is necessary to continuously improve the adaptive ability of the algorithm to achieve the purpose of saving time and increasing efficiency."

　

Li Songnan, for example, for a two-hour concert, traditional manual repair may take one or two months. But from the perspective of algorithm repair, the result can be run in two days.

　

It is understood that the market demand for the restoration of old films is increasing, and many film studios and TV stations have accumulated a large number of old videos. Some of them plan to be re-released or need to be adapted to the current 4K or 8K TV. In addition, some entertainers also need to restore earlier concerts.

　

"The restoration of old films is a relatively long-term thing, and it can be done all the time," Mr. Li said. "The reason is that the quality of the videos that the audience sees now is not bad, and the quality may not be good in three or five years. At the same time, the viewing equipment is also being upgraded. For example, VR monitors and immersive displays will be used more and more in the future, and the update of the display method will accelerate the diversification of the demand for old film restoration technology."

　

Li Songnan stressed that the current video processing is mainly based on 2D video repair and enhancement, and in terms of resolution and frame rate, try to improve the user’s immersion in 2D conditions."But in terms of the future direction, it may also develop in a holographic way.3DAlso, including3Freedom, and finally6Degrees of freedom, the lab has invested in this. "

　

However, Li Songnan also pointed out that some voices have raised the question of whether the current video repair can be used in more social fields, such as optimizing surveillance video and cracking down on crimes. "Although the current technology can achieve face repair and face clearing, it is still difficult to apply in the actual security field. It is impossible to judge whether it is that person from the video. After all, it is generated by an algorithm, and it is not suitable to use it as evidence.

　

Li Songnan said that at present, as a technical department of the laboratory, more business goals are to cooperate with more partners with the ability of the laboratory’s ultra-clear immersion repair engine, while helping the development of the audio & video industry, empowering the classic culture through technology.

However, community groups buying fire, but some people are happy and some people are worried.

Shop around

One community, two groups buying points, four groups buying Mini Programs

Located in Yuzhong District, Chongqing, Huayu Yuzhou Xindu Community is a community with more than 3,000 residents. Outside the west gate of the community, it is the largest group buying pickup point in the community. At noon on December 18, the group buying point was filled with all kinds of goods that people bought on the Mini Program. Among them, most of the vegetables and fruits were written on the packaging of each item with the screen name of the group buying person.

The group buying pick-up point, the goods are mostly fruits and vegetables and daily necessities.

"There are three groups buying things here, and they belong to the same leader." Zhao Shuang, who lives in the second building of the community, comes to get group buying things every day.

On the 18th, Zhao Shuang took away a catty of apples, a bag of bananas, a box of 20 eggs, and about two catties of emperor oranges, which added up to less than 20 yuan.

Zhao Shuang added two group buying WeChat groups in the community, which belong to two different group heads (who organize everyone to group buying together). The group heads will send the group buying information in each group buying to the group at any time for everyone to buy. In the multiple communities visited by the reporter, each group head will not push only one group buying Mini Program information. In Yuzhou Xindu Community, the two group heads have long promoted no less than four group buying Mini Program products.

Upstream news · Chongqing Morning News reporters visited more than one community, and most of the heads have more than two community group buying supply channels.

"I read all four Mini Programs every day, and then buy vegetables!" 65-year-old Chang Yanming lives in Jiahua Xincheng, Yuzhong District. After the rise of community group buying, he rarely buys vegetables in the vegetable market at the entrance of the community. "Group buying is much cheaper. In the vegetable market, a small handful of celery is at least 1.5 yuan, and group buying can buy nearly 0.5 kilograms for less than a dollar." Every day, Chang Yanming will compare the goods bought by the four community groups in the community before placing an order.

Some people are cheap and some people are convenient. Miss He, a 27-year-old female white-collar worker, is also a loyal buyer of community group buying. "After group buying, you don’t need to go to the supermarket and vegetable market. Just take the dishes you buy home at the gate of the community."

Monthly income over 10,000

The head of the group with two groups of 500 people closed the brick and mortar store for group buying

Lan Tian (pseudonym), the female head of Yuzhou Xindu Community, is a real-world friend of many residents in the community. As early as two years ago, when community group buying was not so popular, Lan Tian had already started to do community group buying. At that time, she only had one supplier.

"At first, I asked real-world friends from the property to help pull people into the group, and there were only a few group buying orders a day." Within a few months, everyone felt that group buying was very convenient, and the number of people in Lan Tian’s WeChat group quickly increased. Now, Lan Tian has opened a second group buying WeChat group. When there are many group buying people, she has to receive hundreds of orders a day.

Fruits and vegetables bought by groups of residents.

In the middle of this year, due to the impact of the pandemic, Lan Tiankai’s mother and baby store outside the community closed. She became the head of group buying full-time. The most important job every day was to pack the goods according to the group buying list after each group buying supplier delivered the goods, and wait for someone to take it. "You can have a small income of several thousand yuan a month, when you earn pocket money."

Compared to Lan Tian, Huang Qian, who is the head of Zhulin Community at Peking University, has more customers. She has two WeChat group buying groups, and the members of the two groups are rarely repeated. The second group is about to fill up with 500 people, "I am preparing to open a third group."

Huang Qian did not have her own storage point. She negotiated with the owner of a mahjong parlor in the community and borrowed the other party’s outdoor open space as a group buying pickup point. "I also put a freezer at his house and gave him 500 yuan a month." Huang Qian had three group buying suppliers, and each group buying supplier gave her a commission of more than 10% for each order, and some could reach 13%. "When the business is good, the group buying commission income can be tens of thousands." Like Lan Tian, Huang Qian also opened a brick and mortar store before, "The store closed in July this year, and I dedicated myself to group buying. This has no cost and no risk. "

Mainly group buying

"Selling vegetables is for group buying, otherwise the door will be closed."

Huang Qian introduced that since last year, she has started to do group buying. And her own brick and mortar store business is difficult to do, which became obvious after the effective prevention and control of the epidemic at the end of March this year and the store reopened. "During the epidemic, community group buying is more and more. By May this year, our store’s business was 30% less than the same period last year."

Huang Qian compared the price of group buying herself. For the same type of milk, her store needs to sell it for about 50 yuan a piece to not lose money, but in the major group buying Mini Program, the same brand of milk can be as low as about 43 yuan a piece. "Brick and mortar stores don’t have any price advantage."

In Yuzhou Xindu Community, the brick and mortar stores selling vegetables and fruits have also closed three in one year, and one of the stores specializing in fresh vegetables has only been open for two months.

"Group buying has basically become the standard for neighbors to buy vegetables. The price of group buying is too low, and we can’t win." Ms. Chen is an employee of a closed fruit store in Yuzhou Xindu Community. Ms. Chen introduced that the group buying is about 4 yuan a catty of bananas, and the brick and mortar store must sell at least 6 yuan to not lose money.

Many brick and mortar store owners are "part-time" heads.

Xiao Shi, the owner of another vegetable store in the community, was recently lobbying his regular customers to join his group buying group. Although there was already a group buying point in the community, Xiao Shi still became the head of the group. "I set myself up as a group buying point.

However, some residents have expressed their concerns about community group buying. Guan Lin, a 50-year-old resident of Huayu Linquan Yashe Community in Shapingba District, will only buy fresh fruits on the group buying platform, while fish, pork, mutton and other big-ticket goods will still go to the supermarket to buy, because they are worried that the meat on the group buying platform is not fresh, and fresh vegetables will be purchased at the vegetable stall downstairs.

Wu Qian, 23, said, "Although many things in community group buying are very cheap, some of them are not of good quality. For example, sanitary napkins and facial cleansers will buy brand products, not group buying."

　　"I will go out of the mountain to build my dream machine to celebrate the 15th anniversary of Meizu."

　　When Meizu founder Huang Zhang appeared on the Meizu forum on February 11, 2017 to write this sentence, all Meizu fans cheered, "Mr. Huang, I am ready to buy your flagship phone," and one fan excitedly left a message.

　　However, after a year of waiting, Huang Zhang appeared on the forum again, saying that "due to time constraints, 15 is just a small test for me to return to Meizu after many years, and the 16 series launched later is the product I have fully built. The 16 series will be launched around August."

　　The Meizu 15 released on April 22, with a very narrow frame, a small circle of return, and a Luo Yun pattern on the antenna, has a clear Huang style brand. However, with the popularity of new technologies such as full-screen and under-screen fingerprints, the tribute to the classic Meizu 15 has not brought too much desire to change phones to picky users.

　　Meizu 15 is more like a product that connects the past and the future. At least on the product, it announced again that Huang Zhang, the chief designer of Meizu mobile phones, is back. But in the fiercely competitive Chinese smartphone market, after the failure of the Pro 7 and the test of Meizu 15, how much time is left for Meizu?

　　"The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment."

　　After Huang Zhang claimed that Meizu 15 was just a small test, many fans left comments saying that "the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment".

　　In fact, after Huang Zhang claimed to re-launch the dream machine Meizu 15, expectations for the product have been high. Meizu is also externally promoting the significance of this product to Huang Zhang and Meizu itself.

　　If you think about what he has done before, are the M8 and M6 ruthless? So we still have a lot of confidence in Mr. Huang’s products, and I believe that the offensive will be enough. "Li Nan, the president of Meilan, said in an interview with Sina Technology.

　　However, judging from the situation after the release of Meizu 15, it is obvious that Meizu fans are not satisfied.

　　An old Meizu friend who claimed to be "past the age of brainless fans" posted on the Meizu forum, "Old Huang’s little marketing tricks, to be honest, at an age when he can still be fanatical, I still admire them. Now, I don’t want to say it out. In short, Old Huang is Meizu’s biggest reliance and the biggest obstacle. Stop using Old Huang as a gimmick, and recall the success of J. wong ten years ago to sum up the successful experience. For Old Meizu, the whole mobile phone that makes Old Meizu stand up straight is like the whole m8 back then. Leading the trend is not Meizu’s responsibility, but at least keeping up with the trend is the reason why Meizu continues to buy Meizu mobile phones."

　　Huang Zhang’s repetition of Meizu 15’s publicity and marketing rhythm has indeed brought a lot of negative word-of-mouth to this product. Yang Zhe, Meizu’s senior vice president, also admitted in an interview after the press conference that Meizu 15 is indeed just a product of Huang Zhang’s small test. "Mr. Huang has been out of the company’s management and operation for a period of time. After he returns, he must feel that his grasp of the market is accurate or inaccurate, and whether the concept can be accepted by consumers? There are also old Meizu friends who have lost a lot, and many have been replaced and turned into young ones. Whether these people buy such designs is not a simple matter."

　　Urgent need for clear brand and product positioning

　　After the separation of the Meizu brand and the Meizu brand in May 2017, the Meizu internal positioning of the two brands was clarified: the Meizu brand is more focused on the high-end market, targeting business, government and enterprise, high-end, and elite groups; while the Meizu brand is targeted at the young people market and undertakes the task of sales.

　　Although the positioning and differentiation of the two brands have been done well, in fact, the brand perception of the Meizu brand has not been successful, and the business attributes of the product are not enough.

　　According to the Flyme user report released by Meizu at the end of last year, the cumulative number of Flyme users exceeded 6,000 units. In terms of overall age distribution, 31% were aged 15-22, 59% were aged 23-35, and only 4% were aged 36-45 and over 46. Geographically, second-tier cities accounted for 35%, third-tier cities 24%, fourth-tier cities 26%, and first-tier cities only 13%.

　　This means that Flyme users can also be roughly regarded as Meizu mobile phone users, with young users between the ages of 15 and 35 in second- and third-tier cities accounting for the vast majority.

　　This poses a challenge to the high-end business image that Meizu brand is eager to create. On the one hand, only 8% of Meizu’s own users meet this age group. Most Meizu users are not interested in the Buddhist marketing and business brand perception elements added by Meizu on Pro 7 and Meizu 15. This was shown when Yang Zhe released a promotional poster on Weibo to warm up Meizu 15. Existing Meizu users do not like and recognize Huang Zhang and Yang Zhe’s unique brand concept for Meizu.

　　On the other hand, the Pro 7 and Meizu 15 did not reflect enough business elements in terms of product attributes. Yang Zhe emphasized at the press conference that purchasing hundreds of kilograms of pure gold materials to color the back shell, spending millions of dollars to customize Samsung’s new size display, and a global haptic feedback system did not constitute a necessary factor to impress the business crowd, let alone compete for users from Huawei, Samsung, and other players.

　　Confused product lines and pricing strategies

　　"Meizu is the real flagship" is a kind of ridicule by netizens that Meizu’s flagship product is not as good as Meizu’s products in some configurations. Unfortunately, this ridicule happened to Meizu 15.

　　Meizu 15 series has a total of three products, the M15 uses the Snapdragon 626 processor, with 4GB memory + 64GB storage, priced at 1699 yuan; the 15 uses the Snapdragon 660 processor, with 4GB + 64GB storage, priced at 2499 yuan; the 15 Plus uses the Samsung Exynos 8895 platform, with 6GB + 128GB storage, priced at 2999 yuan.

　　Overall, the three products make a good distinction in terms of configuration and price, but the comparison with the Meizu E3 just released by Meizu will be rather awkward.

　　The Meizu E3 uses a Snapdragon 636 processor, with 6GB + 64GB storage, and is priced at 1799 yuan. Although the Meizu E3 lags behind the M15 and 15 in terms of camera performance, it has an advantage in the basic memory combination. This will undoubtedly make the Meizu brand and Meizu brand product lines conflict and confusion in user choices.

　　Meizu brand’s previous flagship product Pro 7 also faces this situation.

　　Although it has a unique screen design, it is equipped with MediaTek Xili P25 and Xili X30 processors, and the price is as high as 2880 yuan and 3580 yuan at the same time. As a result, the product has not received external recognition, and the price has plunged 1,000 yuan in a short period of time, and it has even been exposed that the order has to be cut in the end.

　　Although the Meizu 15 uses a Qualcomm processor, the price of 660 + 4GB + 64GB at 2499 yuan has also attracted controversy. Compared with other brands at the same price, the competitiveness is limited.

　　Internal management crisis

　　Before the release of Meizu 15, Zhang Jia, the former director of Meizu’s cultural and creative department, bombarded Meizu’s senior vice president Yang Zhe, which had long attracted the attention of netizens and the media.

　　According to Zhang Jia’s description, since Yang Zhe joined in May 2017, he has proposed three plans: Meizu Cultural Asset Enhancement Plan, Meizu Financial Business Development New Concept and Flyme Cultural Asset Enhancement Plan, but they have all failed. At present, most of the staff of Benge Technology, a content marketing platform under Meizu founded by him, have also been lost.

　　In fact, this is just a microcosm of the change in Meizu’s organizational structure led and inspired by Huang Zhang.

　　Three months after Huang Zhang’s return, Meizu underwent a major organizational restructuring. Huang Zhang served as Meizu’s chairperson and CEO, and established three new business divisions – Meizu Business Division, Meizu Business Division, and Flyme Business Division. Huang Zhang personally managed the Meizu business division, and Yang Zhe served as senior vice president and general staff officer, responsible for the marketing of the Meizu brand; while Li Nan was responsible for the Meizu brand.

　　In September last year, Pan Yikuan, the vice president of Meizu’s business unit in charge of sales, left after less than four months; a few months later, Chu Chunmin, the vice president of sales of Meizu’s business unit, and most of the employees in the sales team he led announced their departure.

　　In December 2017, Huang Zhang adjusted Meizu’s structure again, establishing a new overseas business department, an e-commerce business department, and an accessories business department. He promoted CFO Qi Weimin to senior vice president of the company, on an equal footing with President Bai Yongxiang, with the intention of increasing revenue and reducing expenditure to ensure profits. At the same time, he further expanded overseas markets and expanded sales.

　　In addition to structural adjustments, Meizu has been in the bottom 10% for three consecutive years, which has contributed significantly to Meizu’s profitability since 2016.

　　Meizu is not so much going through an internal struggle, but rather a rebalancing of power under Huang Zhang’s will. Just as Li Nan, who was supposed to lead Meizu to independence, was finally asked by Huang Zhang to cooperate with Meizu’s division and accessories division on channels. At the same time, Huang Zhang also withdrew Meizu’s product definition and design authority; at the Meizu 15 conference, Yang Zhe also replaced the usual combination of Bai Yongxiang and Li Nan as the main speaker.

　　In an interview after the Meizu 15 press conference, Yang Zhe also talked about the recent Zhang Jia incident. He believes that this situation is a harbinger of Meizu’s long-standing accumulation of change. "Reform has been difficult since ancient times, and it is easy to see no reform." He also said that with the deepening of reform, there will be more organizational structure and personnel adjustments. "This incident shows that Meizu has reached a point where it must be changed."

　　After the Zhang Jia incident, Huang Zhang immediately called Yang Zhe and said, "No matter what, we must firmly move towards the correct brand strategy. A company should not be threatened by crude cyber attacks or even organized online public opinion. We must firmly follow our own path."

　　Conclusion: Can Meizu 15 and 16 save Meizu?

　　After experiencing the cold winter of smartphones in 2017, Chinese manufacturers felt the cold winter again in Quarter 1 of 2018. The "Analysis Report on the Operation of the Domestic Mobile Phone Market in March 2018" released by the China Institute of Information and Communications under MIIT shows that in January-March 2018, China’s smartphone shipments were 81.87 million, down 27.0% year-on-year.

　　Under the internal and external troubles, Meizu has indeed reached a moment when it has to change. Huang Zhang, who has always paid attention to products and even believes that good products are the only way to solve problems, has also made drastic changes to Meizu in terms of brand, marketing, products, and channels after his return.

　　However, just as Huang Zhang’s two comebacks in 2014 and 2017, in the face of such intense competition and rapid changes in the smartphone industry, can the spiritual leader who relies on the apotheosis-style come out to solve the problem again and again? For Meizu, the hope of rebirth is entirely on Huang Zhang, who has been isolated from the outside world for a long time. I am afraid that there must be both expectations of success and preparation for failure.

　　After transforming from a dream machine to a small test of the Meizu 15, Huang Zhang claims that the 16 series he has fully built will be released in August this year. If the Meizu 16 does not meet the expectations of the outside world, what should Meizu do?

　　With the country’s strict investigation of drunk driving accidents in recent years, the chauffeur industry has become hot, especially the emerging Internet chauffeur platform is more popular among users, but there are also many users who are not completely at ease with the ability of the chauffeur. The reporter recently spent two months deep into the country’s largest Internet chauffeur platform, starting from an ordinary chauffeur, and went through multiple tests such as recruitment exams, driver training, and actual chauffeur processes. It is not easy to find that it is not easy to be a chauffeur.

　　The driving test is more difficult than the driver’s license test

　　At present, Internet driving is popular as a freelance profession. If you have nothing to do, you can come out to earn some money to supplement your family. If you have something to do, you can leave work at any time. The reporter searched for the keyword "driving" on Baidu and found that e-driving is the earliest Internet driving platform established, and it is also more formal and reliable. Therefore, he decided to "undercover" the platform to experience the driving process. The reporter himself has 8 years of driving experience and meets the requirements of at least 5 years of driving experience required by the platform, so he registered through the e-driving official website on March 23, and then took a preliminary test online. To be honest, this test is a bit "too complicated". It mainly assesses driving skills and some application scenario logic questions. A total of hundreds of test questions need to be answered, which is more difficult than the car test back then.

　　Then, after three days of waiting, the reporter finally waited for the interview notice, and went to the e-driver Beijing branch full of excitement. He saw that many of the driver masters who came to interview were waiting for the interview number. During the interview, the branch manager was like a confidant brother, telling me about the problems that may be encountered in the driver, so I should be mentally prepared. The general meaning is: "We are in the service industry, because our industry is relatively special, the customers we face are sometimes irrational, and we must do our own service well." After that, we also talked a lot about business-level knowledge, as well as the software application of the smartphone APP client.

　　Since the reporter himself was rather talkative in the interview and performed fairly steadily, the branch manager agreed to let me enter the next stage of the road test, which was located near the company. The road test was mainly taken by an examiner from a professional driving school. The test simulated the scene of a driving school. There was a feeling of taking a driver’s license test, and there was also a road test. The examiner held a scorer in his hand and scored at any time. I secretly consulted, and he said that only if he achieved excellent results in both the manual transmission and the automatic transmission assessment could he have the opportunity to become a cooperative driving master of the e-driving platform. Fortunately, in the end, he passed the relevant test and became a "certified" driving master.

　　In general, e-chauffeur has strict requirements for recruiting chauffeur masters, giving people the feeling of "devil-like" assessment. Correspondingly, its chauffeur service requirements are to provide "angel-like" services. Drivers have many years of driving experience alone, and they also need to meet many services in the customer’s chauffeur process. According to the examiner, all chauffeur masters in the platform regularly participate in the company’s internal "chauffeur star" training to improve work skills and Client Server awareness.

　　The first driving experience

　　On the first day of the reporter’s post, he experienced his first driving job in Beijing. That day, he happened to encounter a couple in Sanlitun who drank too much, and the two were arguing. After getting on the bus, I asked them where they were going. The male customer said: "Go to the second ring road first," and then drive around the second ring road. During the driving process, the male customer repeatedly said that I was driving slowly, hurry up, hurry up! The female customer said that you are driving too fast, can you drive slower? The reporter suddenly realized that the driving is so difficult, but I remember that the branch manager said to me during the interview. During the driving process, "I only look at the road ahead and don’t smell the things outside the window." I still smiled and asked, "Where are you going? We can’t keep walking around the Second Ring Road. "In the end, the customer still told me the location, and after the driving was completed, the female customer got off the car and apologized to me repeatedly. The work covered a total of 14.6 kilometers and collected 59 yuan for the driving fee, which can be regarded as a small income.

　　Service-heavy details will be recognized

　　On April 24, the reporter discussed his experience with a "colleague" at the entrance of a restaurant in the evening. Master Liu, a 48-year-old driver with 21 years of driving experience, told the reporter: "I have been driving for more than 2 years. It turned out to be a taxi driver. Now I feel that it is not easy to be a driver. I remember once a customer drank too much and vomited on the door. I bought him a bottle of mineral water. After the customer drank half of it, I got out of the car and wiped the car with the other half of the water for him. Not only did he get a tip that day, but he also got a good review the next day." After listening to him, the reporter immediately felt the importance of details in the service process.

　　It is very likely that you are driving an "insider"

　　According to Master Liu, in order to improve the chauffeur service, the e-chauffeur company has also established a "mysterious customer" department, which is mainly responsible for monitoring the service quality of the chauffeur from time to time, such as wearing work clothes and work cards, whether there are polite words after getting on the bus, checking the appearance of the vehicle, informing the current starting price and displaying the odometer throughout the process, whether it can be in place within 10 minutes, and how to deal with the customer’s discomfort. For example, if the customer says that he is uncomfortable, dizzy, headache, etc., will the chauffeur ignore it? In other words, the customer who appears in front of the chauffeur is likely to be an "insider", who is here to "secretly visit" your service quality.

　　In order to standardize the driving habits of chauffeur drivers, e-chauffeur also refers to the national road traffic safety violations cumulative points system and sets up chauffeur points. The scoring period is 12 months, and each chauffeur driver has 12 points. The customer complaint linkage mechanism, according to the specific customer complaint content, deducts the chauffeur’s chauffeur points. For each chauffeur point deducted, the driver will face being blocked. Once the chauffeur points are deducted, the chauffeur platform will lift the cooperation with the driver. This also sets a yellow line and a red line for the driver master, so that everyone can abide by the rules and protect the driving safety of customers from the system.

　　The threshold for regular driving companies is not low

　　It is understood that in people’s traditional concept of traditional chauffeur is that a few drivers who can drive can establish a chauffeur company, and even personal behavior, printing a business card in a familiar hotel, claiming to be a chauffeur company, without going through rigorous exams, nor corresponding insurance protection. The survey found that the fees of this kind of chauffeur company generally start at 200 yuan, and the waiters have a cut, generally ranging from 50 to 80 yuan.

　　With the popularity of smartphones in recent years, it has also given birth to an Internet-based driving platform such as e-driving, which has made this industry that previously seemed to have low barriers to entry more and more stringent. Through the reporter’s personal experience in the driving platform for two months, the current driving platform has greatly subverted the traditional driving industry from the way of managing drivers to the awareness of serving customers, so that the driving industry has a new development model. Now, through the driving service generated by e-driving, any problems will be dealt with by the corresponding person. For example, if there is a traffic accident, there will be a Client Server department to help the driving master communicate with the customer to deal with the solution. The company has purchased driving insurance for each master, and the maximum compensation can be 2 million yuan per transaction.

　　At the same time, the reporter started work as a part-time driver around 7 o’clock every day during the past two months, and went home around 11 o’clock. The average monthly income can reach 6,000 yuan. It can be said that an ordinary master can earn a small amount of income in the driver platform to subsidize the family.

　　Nowadays, it has become easier for users to find chauffeurs through the Internet, with more transparent prices and safer services. The future of the Internet chauffeur industry is promising.

It’s rainy season again, and the biggest trouble for vehicles in rainy season is wading. Even vehicles with strong wading ability should not blindly wade. Remember that wading is a "no-no", which may cause various serious consequences if it is not handled properly. For the sake of everyone’s life and property safety, we have to repeat the old saying and tell the owners of the Great Wall Cannon what to pay attention to when traveling daily and wading outdoors!

Remember not to wade blindly.

Recently, I saw videos of people who were killed because of driving and wading. Most of them were caused by blind wading. You should think twice before you encounter stagnant roads, and always have a sense of risk prevention to prevent problems before they happen. At the same time, we should learn to judge the depth of water level. We can judge the approximate water level by surrounding reference objects. If there is no reference object, we can also judge the water level by throwing stones and inserting bamboo poles. It is really impossible to judge the water level. Don’t rush into the water. If you can go around, you can go around.

You should also have a full understanding of the maximum wading depth of your car. Because the original factory comes standard with a wading throat, the wading depth of the Great Wall gun off-road pickup truck can reach 700mm, which is far more than the maximum wading depth of 400mm for ordinary cars. Facing the low-lying water-logged sections of the city, there is generally no big problem, but it is better to be cautious when encountering floods or rushing rivers.

In addition to judging the depth of accumulated water and understanding the vehicle’s wading situation, it is necessary to have certain wading driving skills. First, it is best to choose a route with higher terrain to enter the water. During the driving process in the water, you should keep driving at a low speed and at a constant speed, keep the engine at 1500-2000 rpm, keep the throttle, don’t step deeply, and don’t collect oil. In this way, water will not enter the engine room and cockpit because of the excessive speed and splash, and water will not enter the engine because of the backward suction of the exhaust pipe. Finally, don’t forget to put on life jackets for all the people in the car, and open the windows and skylights at the same time to escape quickly in case of emergency.

If the car turns off accidentally, don’t start it again. The second start will lead to serious mechanical failure of the engine, causing irreversible damage, and the insurance will not pay for it. At this time, we can only cut off the power and ask for rescue, and the subsequent maintenance will be handed over to the 4S shop for processing.

Check the vehicle in time and eliminate the problem.

After successfully crossing the water, don’t forget to check the vehicle. Even if the vehicle doesn’t break down suddenly during the wading process, it doesn’t mean that it is foolproof, because there may be various "dark diseases" in the vehicle after wading. Many parts of the Great Wall Cannon can be inspected by itself, such as 360 Panorama, radar control module, horn, compressor assembly, winch assembly, lighting, glass lifter assembly, windshield washer assembly, 220V inverter and starter. The method is also very simple. Start the vehicle first. If the engine can start normally, it means that the starter is normal, and then check other parts one by one.

Among them, the fault of the radar control module of the Great Wall Gun can be displayed in the form of fault code. When checking the headlights, pay attention to whether there is water or silt in the headlights. When checking the glass lifter assembly, press it several times to see if it is normal. When checking the 220V inverter, just turn on the switch and see if the indicator light is on.

If the vehicle is seriously waded, besides self-inspection, the owner is advised to go to the 4S shop or service station, where the staff will inspect more core components, such as battery+generator, electric steering gear, crankshaft position sensor, engine accessory gear train, turbocharger, transmission breather pipe, transmission assembly, radiator, intercooler, oil cooler, fan, drive shaft/transmission shaft sheath, fuel vent valve pipe and transfer case assembly.

Driving in water is not a child’s play. It is necessary to understand that stepping on a puddle and wading are two different things. Everything is safety-oriented. I hope the above wading precautions can help everyone!
