On April 19, Hengda, Huawei, Baidu and other "new car-making forces" moved frequently, or released new cars or announced intelligent solutions for automobiles. On the same day, the class A share auto index sector rose by more than 6%, of which driverless concept stocks and automotive electronics concept stocks set off a daily limit.

　　Mobile phone end point business declines in 2020

　　Huawei switches to car racing

　　On April 19, all media reporters learned from an internal Huawei employee that on April 20, "Huawei’s flagship store will have huge new partners." At the same time, the video released clearly shows the outline of a car, with the caption "On April 20, Huawei’s flagship store welcomes new partners, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Chengdu." The reporter noticed that the Sailis Huawei Smart Selection SF5 had appeared on Huawei’s official website that day, but as of press time, Huawei had not provided the purchase entrance.

　　Regarding cross-border vehicle manufacturing, Huawei has stated many times before that it will not enter the field of vehicle manufacturing. At the recent Huawei 2020 annual report, rotating chairperson Hu Houjun reiterated that Huawei’s positioning in the field of smart cars is that the parts supplier has not changed.

　　Industry insiders told reporters that Huawei’s active rush to the automotive industry is not unrelated to the current decline in its mobile phone end point business. The reporter observed Huawei’s recent financial reports and found that in 2020, Huawei’s revenue growth slowed to 3.8%, the lowest in the past ten years. For the annual report data, Hu Houqian, chairperson of Huawei, said that the growth rate of consumer business did not meet expectations last year, and admitted that last year due to supply problems, mobile phone sales were affected. In this case, industry insiders told reporters that the decline in Huawei’s mobile phone sales is not only related to the separation of Honor mobile phones, but more importantly, the current Huawei mobile phone production capacity is restricted by the lack of "core" factors.

　　As for when Huawei’s intelligent driving department will be profitable, Su Qing, chief architect of Huawei ADS and president of intelligent driving product line, said that autonomous driving does not have to worry about profitability. It is reported that Wang Jun, president of Huawei Smart Car Solutions BU, said that this year’s investment in research and development will reach 1 billion US dollars (about 6.50 billion yuan).

　　But according to the financial report, Huawei’s cash flow has shrunk at present. According to the financial report, Huawei’s cash flow from operating activities in 2020 was 35.20 billion yuan, down 61.5% year-on-year. In this regard, Huawei said that this is due to increased investment in supply, research and development, material reserves and other aspects.

　　Compared with Xiaomi, which announced at the end of March to join the ranks of car manufacturing, its cash reserves in 2020 are as high as 108 billion yuan. Industry insiders told reporters that with Huawei’s capital, such as investing in the vehicle manufacturing industry with a long manufacturing cycle and high capital occupation, the pressure is obvious. At present, Huawei chooses to layout the intelligent driving industry or as a stopgap measure.

　　Class A share auto index sector rose more than 6%

　　On the same day, the 19th Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition in 2021 (hereinafter referred to as the 2021 Shanghai Auto Show) opened, which is also the first A-level auto show held as scheduled in the world this year. At this Shanghai Auto Show, on the one hand, the independent brand product brands continue to rise and rise in the process of change; on the other hand, the joint venture foreign investment up the ante electric, under the entry of new and old forces and tech giants, the rise of electric intelligence.

　　Among them, Baidu’s Apollo Lego-style automotive intelligent solution was fully unveiled, and the two products of Smart Driving and Zhiyun ushered in a heavy upgrade. Its Zhiyun products can support car companies to quickly build intelligent capabilities, shortening the autonomous driving research and development cycle that originally took at least 7 years to complete to 6 months. After 100 days of official announcement of car building, Baidu CEO Robin Li and Geely CEO Li Shufu gathered. According to people familiar with the matter, the meeting between the two was not at the Shanghai Auto Show, and Jidu Automobile will announce a big cooperation. In addition, Wuling New Energy’s first convertible, Hongguang MINIEV CABRIO, made its world debut. Hengda Motor made its debut with nine models of Hengchi, covering all grades from A to D, as well as a full range of models such as sedans, coupes, SUVs, MPVs, and crossovers.

　　On April 19, the class A share auto index sector rose more than 6%, Dongfeng Motor, GAC Group, Changan Automobile and other stocks rose by the limit. In the Hong Kong stock market, as of the close, Wuling Automobile rose 27.53%, and the intraday increase was over 30%; Geely Automobile rose 4.82%; BYD shares rose 4.77%, Beijing Automobile rose 4.14%.

　　The reporter also noticed that the automotive industry chain has strengthened, including driverless, complete vehicles, automotive electronics, automotive parts, lithium batteries and other branches, among which driverless concept stocks and automotive electronics concept stocks have set off a rise in the limit.

　　New forces should overcome capital barriers, production capacity barriers and market barriers as soon as possible

　　The reporter observed that at the end of March and the beginning of April, China’s "new car-making forces" continued to move: on March 30, Xiaomi, a cross-border car manufacturer, announced "the first investment of 10 billion yuan, and the investment amount in the next 10 years will reach 10 billion US dollars"; on April 7, the 100,000 production car of NIO was mass-produced in Jianghuai NIO Hefei Advanced Manufacturing Base; on April 8, the Management Committee of Wuhan Economic and Technological Development Zone and XPeng Motors officially signed an investment agreement for the intelligent networked car manufacturing base and R & D center project…

　　The "14th Five-Year Plan" clearly focuses on strategic emerging industries such as new energy vehicles, and organizes future industry incubation and acceleration plans in hydrogen energy and other industries. The market believes that this is a strong support for the development of the new energy vehicle industry; not only that, peak carbon dioxide emissions and carbon neutrality targets have become national strategic goals, which has also injected strong impetus into the development of the new energy vehicle market.

　　Not only that, in terms of smart cars, the "14th Five-Year Plan" also makes it clear that vehicle to everything will be actively and steadily developed. The three departments have issued the "National Vehicle to Everything Industry Standard System Suggestions Guide (Intelligent Transportation Related) ", and the construction and development of vehicle to everything related systems continue to accelerate. The reporter observed that the cooperation between car companies and high-tech enterprises is also accelerating. For example, Huawei and BAIC’s new energy brand JIHU have cooperated to launch intelligent luxury pure electric sedan BAIC α coefficient S, and Hengda Automobile has established a joint venture with Tencent’s companies. In this regard, Bohai Securities released a research report and believes that it is optimistic about the trend of intelligent automobile networking, and smart cars are expected to appear "explosive" mass-produced models this year.

　　Zhong Shi, an auto industry analyst, believes that now Chinese and foreign automakers have seen the big trend of industry transformation and entered the new energy automobile industry, which will bring new survival challenges to the "new car-making forces". They must survive capital barriers, production capacity barriers and market barriers as soon as possible. He also said that in the end, to achieve the growth of China’s new energy automobile industry, it depends on the comprehensive competition of car companies in terms of advanced technology, cost control, supply chain improvement, excellent quality, safety and reliability. "Objectively speaking, the technical challenges faced by the’new car-making forces’ are still huge, and domestic car companies in our country need to redouble their efforts to seize the opportunities brought by this industry transformation."

　　Fu Yuwu, honorary chairperson of the China Society of Automotive Engineers, also emphasized in an interview that "new car companies should respect the objective laws of technological development, and maintain respect for the automotive industry while making efforts on the new track of intelligence and electrification."

　　Sales of new energy vehicles are expected to grow rapidly in 2021

　　In the face of joint venture car companies up the ante and our country’s own brand car companies expanding production capacity, is the supply of new energy vehicles oversupplied? On the production side, the industrial added value of the automobile manufacturing industry in the first quarter of 2021 increased by more than 50% year-on-year; while the data of the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers shows that Quarter 1, China’s new energy vehicle production was 533,000, and sales were 515,000, an increase of 3.2 times and 2.8 times year-on-year respectively. For the future market, some car companies told reporters that they are currently expanding their plants to increase production capacity. Among them, Guangzhou Automobile Aian is expected to invest about 500 million yuan and plans to double production capacity in early 2022.

　　On the sales side, the retail volume of narrow passenger cars in the first quarter of this year totaled 5.092 million, an increase of 68.8% year-on-year, a record high growth rate. For the sharp increase in retail volume of passenger cars in the first quarter of this year, the Passenger Association explained that in addition to being affected by the low sales base in the same period last year, another major driving factor is the increasing contribution of new energy vehicles. According to the data of the Passenger Association, in the first quarter, the retail volume of new energy vehicles was 437,000, an increase of 302.9% year-on-year. The retail penetration rate of domestic new energy vehicles in the first quarter was 8.6%, which was significantly higher than the 5.8% in the same period last year. Among them, the penetration rate of new energy vehicles among independent brands in March was 20.5%.

　　Some industry analysts believe that production capacity does not mean actual supply. In the face of changes in fuel vehicles and new energy vehicles in the market, in addition to adjusting the product structure of automobile companies, they will also re-target the marketization goal of new energy vehicles according to their own advantages, and create a marketing method for electric vehicles, which will affect the sales strategy and consumers are expected to benefit.

　　Huaxi Securities believes that with the continuous improvement of the sales structure and quality of new energy vehicles, as well as the continuous launch of high-quality new models such as the Model Y series, supply will drive demand changes, and the penetration rate of new energy vehicles is expected to accelerate. It is expected that sales will grow rapidly in 2021.

　　"Whether it’s Didi or Uber, subsidies are a sales pitch to attract consumers to’look over ‘and then become users." Some analysts say the platform has been waiting for the time to end the long "money-burning war". The merger of Didi and Uber is an "opportunity", so subsidies will sooner or later be reduced or even cancelled.

　　After the merger of Didi and Uber China, various questions have also arisen. Questions about the alleged monopoly of the two continue to emerge. The monopoly issue involves pricing power. At present, the combined market share of the two is greater than 90%. Passengers have questioned whether the price of online car-hailing after the merger will increase and the discount will be reduced. Online car-hailing drivers also doubt whether the rewards for drivers are getting less and less stringent. Uber employees began to consider the question of "where to go". After all, after the merger of Internet Tech Giants, the second team is often marginalized.

　　Beijing Youth Daily reporter’s investigation shows that the current pricing of Didi and Uber for passengers has not changed, but the corresponding discounts and incentives for drivers have indeed decreased. Although no one has left the Uber team yet, competitors have offered attractive conditions for poaching people.

　　passenger

　　Why is the fare higher than before?

　　Yesterday, the user "Astro Boy Head" posted a screenshot of "The same journey, Didi’s price increase is all recorded" on Weibo. The screenshot of the payment shows that an order "Astro Boy Head" paid only 2 yuan on July 27 and before, 5 yuan on July 30 and August 2, and 7.6 yuan from the 3rd. At the same time, there are many passengers on Weibo discussing the issue of Didi’s price increase.

　　The Beiqing Daily reporter found that, in fact, in the days of the merger of Didi and Uber, the unit price of Didi and Uber has not increased. At present, the charging standard of People’s Uber is 1.5 yuan/km + 0.25 yuan/minute; the charging standard of Didi Express is 1.8 yuan/km + 0.5 yuan/minute.

　　So why do passengers feel that the prices of Didi and Uber have increased? The reasons may be threefold: First, the subsidies of Didi and Uber for the passenger side have been reduced. A Beijing passenger reported that currently Didi only has the subsidy of "discount coupons", which are only for fixed models, and the discount is about 15% off, which can be said to have little impact on the price of taxis; while Uber has often launched activities such as "2 orders per day, 10 yuan off each order", or getting on/off the bus in a certain area to enjoy a 50% discount. He recalled that not long ago, the area of Beijing almost took turns to engage in this activity, which was very strong, but now it is gone.

　　In addition, although not after the merger news was announced, Didi and Uber did adjust their prices recently. The Beijing Youth Daily reporter learned that Didi has raised prices sharply in many cities, and Uber has also adjusted its price standards in some cities. Last month, Didi Express quietly increased its price in Beijing, from 1.5 yuan/kilometer + 0.35 yuan/minute in September last year to 1.8 yuan/kilometer + 0.5 yuan/minute. According to reports from Guangzhou media, Didi’s price standard in Guangzhou rose from 1.4 yuan/kilometer + 0.45 yuan/minute to 1.8 yuan/kilometer + 0.5 yuan/minute in June. The latest billing standard is 2 yuan/kilometer + 0.55 yuan/minute, an increase of more than 30%. Although Uber’s recent charging standards in Beijing have not increased, according to a passenger in Wuhan, Uber’s charging standards in Wuhan have recently increased from 1.5 yuan/kilometer + 0.2 yuan/minute to 1.8 yuan/kilometer + 0.3 yuan/minute; according to local media reports in Guangzhou, Uber’s current price in Guangzhou is about 1.1 yuan/kilometer + 0.55 yuan/minute, while in March, Guangzhou Uber’s price was about 0.99 yuan/kilometer.

　　In addition, both Didi and Uber have corresponding "premium systems". After Didi and Uber reduce the rewards for private cars, passengers will encounter higher premiums when taking a taxi. That is to say, Didi and Uber’s billing standards are only under "normal conditions". Once they encounter conditions such as difficulty in taking a taxi, long waiting time, and bad routes, Didi and Uber will increase a certain multiple on the basis of the above-mentioned price standards. At this time, the price cannot be calculated according to the standard pricing method, but must be multiplied by a coefficient, which can be as high as or even more than 4. For example, when it rained heavily in Beijing last month, Uber increased the price by 4.2 times, and Didi increased the price by more than 3 times. In this way, the price of Didi and Uber is much higher than the current taxi in Beijing. A senior Didi passenger told the Beijing Youth Daily that Didi’s dynamic premiums are now "very frequent". "Anyway, when I need to take a taxi, there is basically no non-premium, 1.5 times, 2 times is very common." He said that although Didi will estimate the price before starting the journey, the words "premium multiple" are very small and may be ignored by some passengers. It should be noted that the current active drivers of Didi and Uber have decreased compared with the peak, and it is not uncommon to see premiums on the passenger side.

　　driver

　　Didi and Uber’s rewards are gone?

　　A few days ago, some Didi Express drivers in Xi’an joined forces to speak out, saying, "Didi has won 49.12 yuan for 15 orders, 16 orders, 17 orders, and 18 orders, to 40 yuan for 20 orders, and 60 yuan for 30 orders… We use our own cars, our own oil, and our own insurance to work for Didi. In the end, Didi rewards us with an insurmountable threshold." According to Xi’an media reports, since August 4, Didi has reduced the rewards for all private car franchise drivers by 80%. It is expected that all rewards for private car franchise drivers will be cancelled in the near future.

　　In fact, Didi and Uber have been tightening incentives for drivers. Last winter, Didi’s subsidy policy was: a reward of 100 yuan for running 10 orders a day, a reward of 200 yuan for 20 orders, and certain requirements for the number of transactions on the previous day. After this year, the reward suddenly shrunk to 40 yuan for 10 orders a day and 90 yuan for 20 orders. At present, Didi’s end is a reward of 60 yuan for 20 orders a day, with an average reward of 3 yuan per order.

　　Uber’s rewards have been on the table with Didi. The reporter of Beiqing Daily learned that the current reward of Uber in Beijing has also dropped from 60 yuan for running 12 orders and 120 yuan for 22 orders at the beginning of this year to 40 yuan for 12 orders and 100 yuan for 22 orders. A former Uber owner told the reporter of Beiqing Daily: "I am too tired to do it. It takes at least 12 hours to run 22 orders. And Uber’s conditions are very harsh, and the average person needs more than 14 hours." The "harsh conditions" he mentioned means that in addition to the number of orders, Didi and Uber also have requirements on transaction rate (referring to the percentage of the final completed order to the number of orders) and service star rating. According to him, Uber’s terms rose from 50 per cent of the week’s transaction rate to 65 per cent, and its service rating rose from 4.7 to 4.8 stars, "it really takes a bit of luck".

　　In addition, the "newcomer award" for joining the platform is also gradually decreasing. According to the current newcomer reward policy of the Beijing Didi platform, the reward for completing 6 orders within 3 days of the activation of the new driver’s account is 58 yuan; the previous policy is to complete 2 orders within a week from the account activation. The reward is 50 yuan, and the reward for completing 5 orders is 100 yuan.

　　The phasing out of incentives has led to the loss of some drivers. Earlier this year, there were multiple reports that Didi and Uber’s subsidies for drivers had dropped sharply, some part-time drivers were withdrawing from the platform, and some full-time drivers left the platform after weighing the pros and cons. This situation caused the aforementioned passenger premium to increase.

　　follow up

　　Didi drivers will be deducted from more than 20% of their income

　　At present, the income of Didi and Uber drivers is mainly composed of the commission income of orders, the reward for completing orders, and the doubling premium during peak hours.

　　Drivers of Didi Express can only take about 74% of the order fee (including the premium), and about 26% of the fee is charged by the platform, insurance and labor service companies. The approximate proportion is that the platform charges 20% of the fee including the share of each order. In addition, the driver’s insurance is 0.5 yuan per order, and the affiliated labor service company also charges 1.17% of the reward and order fee.

　　The 20% of the "fare + peak reward" of the people’s Uber driver will be automatically deducted by the platform. A driver showed a reporter from Beiqing Daily a detailed list of his income for a certain week, which showed that he had collected a total of 137 yuan for sports cars for about 5 hours that week and 46 yuan for peak rewards. On this basis, the Uber platform deducted 20% of the fee, which is 36 yuan, plus a bonus fee of 32 yuan, and he finally got 180 yuan in income.

　　The order completion reward is a reward given by the platform when Didi and Uber drivers complete a certain order volume every day or within a specified time. For example, Didi’s policy on Friday is: 40 yuan for 12 orders and 100 yuan for 22 orders; Uber’s weekend policy is: 60 yuan for 22 orders and 190 yuan for 45 orders on Saturday and Sunday.

　　The policy of doubling the premium during peak hours is different every day. According to one Uber driver, Uber’s current doubling premium during peak hours is about 1.5 to 2 times, 1.1 to 1.3 times at peak times, and sometimes even no premium. According to his recollection, according to Uber’s peak premium policy last year, there was 1.8 times at peak times, and about 5 times at peak times. The recent peak doubling reward of Didi is even lower. According to data from Didi, at the peak on Friday morning and evening, the maximum income reward was only 1.2 times, and one Didi driver said that such a multiple was only a multiple of the previous peak.

　　It is worth mentioning that when Didi launched Didi Express in May last year, it promised that the service is a non-profit ride-sharing service, and all passengers’ payments go to the owner, and the software platform does not charge any fees. However, it did not take long for the platform to start charging a 20% commission.

　　analysis

　　When a monopoly becomes a reality, the cost will be passed on to consumers

　　Analysts said the apparent removal of discounts was not surprising, with the merger marking the end of competition between the two giants that dominate China’s nascent ride-hailing industry. For more than a year, Uber and Didi offered drivers steep subsidies, sometimes several times the fare, in an effort to lure users with low prices.

　　Behind the huge subsidies of Didi and Uber for more than a year is the repeated "burning of money" by investors. According to public information, Didi and Kuaidi conducted two rounds of E and F financing after the merger, raising a total of 8.642 billion yuan, and launched a new round of financing only half a year later. At present, Didi is conducting a G round of financing, and in addition to Apple’s $1 billion investment, it has also received more than $6 billion from other top gifters. The same is true for Uber, which also conducted two rounds of financing after registering a company independently in China, with a financing amount of more than 2.10 billion US dollars. Interestingly, the two mobility giants have at least four co-investors, including Tiger Fund, Hillhouse Capital, China Life and BlackRock.

　　A large amount of financing is used to subsidize drivers and passengers. Uber CEO Kalanick has said that Uber loses more than $1 billion a year in China. At the same time, he also estimated Didi’s subsidies. He said that Didi’s losses are too heavy, and it needs to subsidize 70 million to 80 million US dollars a week, which is about 4 billion US dollars a year. Later, Didi announced that this figure is false and too high, but according to industry analysts, Didi’s annual subsidy fee is at least twice that of Uber, which is about 2 billion US dollars. Since the merged company of Didi and Uber China occupies the vast majority of the market share in the online car-hailing market, whether it constitutes a monopoly or not, such a large market share affects the pricing power of Didi and Uber.

　　In the eyes of industry insiders, price increases are an inevitable trend. "Whether it is Didi or Uber, subsidies are a means of promotion, the purpose is to attract consumers to’look over ‘and then become users." Some analysts said that the platform has been waiting for the time to end the long "money burning war". The merger of Didi and Uber is an "opportunity", so the subsidy will be reduced or even cancelled sooner or later. Another transportation system expert said: "Why do Didi and Uber subsidize and burn money? He 10 billion and will get 20 billion yuan back from consumers. Once the monopoly comes true, the cost will definitely be passed on to consumers the fastest."

　　dynamic

　　China uses "feelings + options" to recruit Uber employees

　　After Didi and Uber were merged, Shenzhou Special Car released a set of posters with the theme "Love U". The boss Lu Zhengyao personally went to WeChat Moments to "show love" to Uber, openly recruited Uber employees, and offered tempting conditions of "as long as you come, you will give 6 months salary plus options".

　　In fact, when Didi and Uber announced the merger, Uber, as the "weaker" party, attracted a lot of attention to the whereabouts of its employees. Since last year, the trend of Internet Tech Giants merging has emerged, and various cases have also shown that after the merger of the boss and the second in the industry, the leader and team of the second will be marginalized, or even eventually eliminated.

　　At present, the Uber team has 800 employees. After the merger of the two companies, Uber China also used the method of deferring the exchange of options to retain employees. An Uber employee told the Beijing Youth Daily that as a multinational company, Uber’s culture is almost completely different from that of Didi, and he is worried about whether it will quickly integrate into the Didi company after the merger. Similar to this employee, there has been a pessimistic mood within the Uber team in the past few days. An Uber employee said he was "very heartbroken", and some said "I don’t know if it is helpless or sad". "Didi is awesome, but I don’t care, I’m a die-hard Uber loyalist," read an article called "Born Proud: Those Young People at Uber," which was widely shared among Uber’s team.

　　But an Uber employee told the Beijing Youth Daily that no one has left the Uber team yet, "everyone is still busy with their own work, doing the normal work at hand." He said that it is still in a transition period, "this stage generally will not leave, after all, I don’t know what the future will be like. If it is determined that it is not suitable, people may want to leave." Wen Jing, reporter of this newspaper

On April 16, the 2024 Baidu Create AI Developer Conference with the theme of "Creating the Future" was held in Shenzhen. Li Ying, vice president of Baidu Group and CEO of Xiaodu Technology, officially released Xiaodu’s next-generation operating system, DuerOS X, which is the world’s first AI native operating system launched by Xiaodu based on the Baidu ERNIE Bot large model. Li Ying said: "As an important and large-scale landing application scenario of the?? model,? AI intelligence helps lead AI native applications to a new height."

DuerOS X is the world’s first AI native operating system

Unlike in the past, as the world’s first AI native operating system, DuerOS X has completely overturned the outdated model of the traditional "human adaptation system", truly achieving the intention and task of connecting users "end-to-end". This innovation has greatly expanded the boundaries of the operating system.

　

DuerOS X operating system

In the model layer, DuerOS X fully applies the Wenxin model. Through the model routing architecture, it can flexibly dispatch different Wenxin models to solve problems of different difficulty, which is more efficient, accurate and economical. In addition, the ability to store, extract and understand personalized long and short memories is also a new highlight. It can more clearly remember historical content and user personalized preferences, and can catch every "archaeological question" you have. The more users use it, the better Xiaodu will understand users.

In the interactive layer, the application of "multimodal perception" technology allows DuerOS X to produce richer perception. Whether the user communicates with Xiaodu through voice, text, or expression, it can accurately understand your intentions and give an appropriate response; "anthropomorphic presentation" technology makes Xiaodu’s expression image more vivid and interesting, the voice more natural and agile, and even expresses emotion and personality through action, making it more "?" temperature, so as to truly provide emotional value and long-term companionship.

In the ecological layer, in addition to Xiaodu 11,000 voice skills such as film and television, music, education, and smart home, the applications developed by Wenxin Intelligent Body can be seamlessly integrated into Xiaodu, which greatly expands the ecological width of DuerOS. These applications not only have professional knowledge and skills, but also can be personalized according to your preferences and needs, providing you with truly intimate and convenient services.

With the blessing of DuerOS X, Xiaodu will be more intelligent, capable, understand you, and achieve better company. Li Ying said that the new Xiaodu will become your family’s AI girlfriend, AI housekeeper, AI teacher, AI health consultant, AI fitness coach and other multiple roles, and truly become people’s intimate "AI partner".

　

Xiaodu is smart, capable, understands you, and accompanies you

　

DuerOS X empowers the small AI ecosystem to make AI everywhere

Whether in the field of home infotainment or AI education, Xiaodu always insists on providing users with smarter and more convenient life services through its own AI technology capabilities and innovative product concepts. In 2023, Xiaodu has gained a lot: Xiaodu smart speakers/smart screens and Xiaodu learning tablets have ranked first in shipments for many consecutive years; Xiaodu has created a new category of "girlfriend machines". In this category, Xiaodu Tiantian’s girlfriend machine sales remain first; Xiaodu fitness glasses sales and the number of smart hotel rooms also continue to rank first.

According to Li Ying, DuerOS X will be the foundation for Xiaodu’s intelligent integration of software and hardware, and the foundation for ecological prosperity. It will provide all of Xiaodu’s hardware products with strong intelligent motion, enabling Xiaodu’s human-machine voice intelligent interaction experience to achieve a qualitative change.

Xiaodu has become a close "partner" and a powerful "assistant" for hundreds of millions of developers to create the future. Xiaodu has been actively working with partners from all walks of life to create a dynamic and sustainable AI ecosystem through the innovative ecosystem of content and services, and the deep integration of hardware and scenarios, and seize the new opportunities brought by intelligence.

　

Small prosperity ecology

In 2024, as the first year of AI native applications, the launch of DuerOS X is not only an extreme brain change for Xiaodu, but also an innovative application of the big model. In the future, Xiaodu will break the ceiling of intelligent capabilities through continuous exploration, bring more people a convenient, comfortable and technological life experience, improve people’s quality of life, and truly let AI enter thousands of industries and households.

Andy Lau played games with his fans and pressed the media about his marriage. He was also clearly well-prepared to fight.

Andy Lau refused to respond to rumors of marriage, saying only that he was not married or had children.

Andy Lau held an autograph signing, attracting thousands of people.

For Zhu Liqian, these three words are obviously Andy’s "dead end".

　　 Andy Lau (Andy) and Zhu Liqian’s affair has been rumored for many years. Recently, it was said that the two had tea with the woman’s family in Malaysia, and it was also said that they would get married locally on April 6, Zhu Liqian’s 43rd birthday. Which is true or false, Andy firmly refused to disclose, only emphasizing that he is not married and has no children.

　　Andy held a singing signing on March 1. Although there were only 500 places, it attracted thousands of people to watch. On the wedding rumors, Andy obviously came prepared. When asked by the reporter if he wanted to congratulate him, he replied politely with a smile: "I have said it many times. In short, if someone believes me, I will continue to believe it. I am now saying no. What makes me most uncomfortable is seeing people on the Internet accusing me of using this for publicity, which I would never do."

　　Mentioning the photo as if he was negotiating a happy event, Andy shook his head and waved his hand and said: "I will not respond to other things, I can only say that I am not married and have no children. (How to describe my relationship with Zhu Liqian?) This cannot be answered. (Will it be close soon?) Or that sentence, the marriage will be notified to everyone." Just straight to ask him if he will show up in Malaysia on April 6? Andy said no first! But then changed his mind: "Basically, I will tour the mainland in March or April, but I don’t know where it will be on which day. The itinerary is in the company, so I won’t talk about it or not." As for whether the tea-drinking photos were taken of Zhu Liqian’s family? And may the people around him be affected by the news? Andy also said that he would not answer, and asked everyone to ignore him so much, only that his mood was not affected.

　　The victim actress is not waiting for an apology

　　In addition, referring to the "philatelic actress" that Wu Junru was referring to, Andy clarified that Jun Ru did not tell him who the other party was at all, and he mocked himself for being old-fashioned, serious and upright, so no actress had ever seduced him. As for Cecilia Cheung’s interview report, Andy also read it bluntly, and praised the other party for being brave and strong. When Cecilia was mentioned, she angrily scolded Edison Chen for owing the victim an apology, and he believed that they had their own solutions in private, but believed that the victim actress was not waiting for this (apology), but should wait for the wound to heal and happily return to life.

　　The Northern Literature Creation Center, as a special invited unit of this year’s Galaxy Awards, conducted an exclusive interview with writer A Que at the event site. The following is to organize the whole article according to the interview record for readers.　

　

　　1 "The golden age of a writer should be between the ages of 40 and 55"　

　　I did well in the college entrance examination, and when I applied for college, there were only a few schools in the country that could not apply. Because science fiction culture has developed particularly well in Chengdu, "Science Fiction World" magazine is in Chengdu, and Sichuan University has the largest science fiction club in the country. For science fiction, I chose Chengdu and Sichuan University. At Sichuan University, I joined the Science Fiction Association and met a lot of interesting people. In the past two years, with the continuous development of science fiction culture, the science fiction association has developed better and better. In the past, an event was held with more than a dozen organizers and two or three on-site audiences. Now, there are more than a dozen organizers, and usually hundreds of spectators can be attracted to watch. Science fiction has gradually become a "hot term" in colleges and universities, providing a space for campus authors who like science fiction and want to engage in science fiction literary creation to grow and communicate.　

　　When I was in college, I started writing science fiction literature, which was relatively early among young people. I asked Mr. Liu Cixin a long time ago, and he mentioned a suggestion not to write full-time. Because at that time, the writing ecology was not very good, and it was difficult to make a living by writing. However, some changes have now taken place, also thanks to the influence and appeal of Mr. Liu’s "Three-Body Problem". This ecology has allowed the bottom writers to slowly feel some benefits. So I now feel that this trend has already appeared when I first wrote science fiction literature, but I still dare not write full-time.　

　　I’m a three-time Galaxy Award winner, and the Galaxy Awards hold a special place in my writing of science fiction, and it even changed my life. If it weren’t for science fiction and the Galaxy Awards, I would be a hydroelectric engineer. Because of the Galaxy Awards, I quit my job, abandoned my original profession to pursue science fiction, and the entire trajectory of my life changed.　

　　When I was able to write commercially, it became possible for my work to be turned into film and television, and film and television companies came to me for commissioned creation, then the income situation would be much better, and I began to consider my own status. "Famous as soon as possible" is correct. If one’s ability allows, becoming famous at a young age can indeed enjoy some of the benefits or benefits of fame in advance. However, in all professions, writers are different from other professions. The golden age of a writer should be between the ages of 40 and 55, and there are very few examples of young people achieving success. From a personal experience, I certainly hope to become famous through a work, but at the same time, I am prepared to start writing good things after the age of 40. Science fiction literature is a benchmark that requires a lifetime to pursue.　

　　　

　　　

　　2 "Hurry up and write, don’t let science fiction literature become non-fiction literature"　

　　The charm of a novel is the most important thing is emotion. Writers try to find the emotion and shining points of the story before writing each story. In literary and artistic works, what a writer should do most is to move people, that is, to move readers. There are many kinds of moving people, which can make people cry or make people laugh. I want to make people laugh. I have been writing for nearly 10 years without changing, and I will persevere in the future.　

　　Some readers have said that my science fiction world is humorous and warm. Regarding the creation of YFJ49 and LW31, they are all robots with flesh and blood, and even have human feelings to a certain extent. At first, it was accidental, I just wanted to write like this, not deliberately. I referred to the voice assistant Siri that had appeared at that time. There are cases of artificial intelligence and artificial manufacturing, which will make everyone feel close. I don’t really want to portray a cold image. Moreover, there have been such images before, and good works already have mountains, which are difficult to climb. If I write now, I will write according to this image.　

　　In the earliest days, for example, when I first started writing science fiction, I didn’t have much reserves, so I could only go from the classic themes, such as the three classic categories, aliens, robots, and clones. Among them, robots are the first science and technology that I think entered our lives. I want to hurry up and write, otherwise it will become non-fiction in 20 years, and it will not be science fiction. But this kind of warm, cute and cheap little robot image, in my opinion at that time, its reading threshold will be a little lower, and the public will accept it better. A good science fiction will actually make the threshold lower and lower. A science fiction writer should not be obsessed with posting all kinds of obscure terms in a novel. The newly constructed concept is indeed fascinating and surprising, but the writer has many skills to bring the concept to the reader and make them understand.　

　　I very much reject this kind of beginning. I introduce the whole world view or unique concept first, and then let the reader see the conceptual behavior of the character. A good practice is to tell the story first, first let the reader see the life of the character’s image, that is, the reader’s life, and then accept this concept step by step. Not to make a threshold alone, it should be the basic quality of a writer. I personally prefer street stall literature. If there are some theories in my novels, I will try to reduce the appearance of these theories in the article. Because theory will break the reading rhythm of the article, the reader may see 1/3 of the story, and suddenly there is a theoretical introduction of one or two thousand words. This is not good, like eating a stone when eating. Therefore, I will try my best to lower the threshold, and the effect is OK for now, but there is still room for further improvement.　

　　　

　　　

　　3 "The charm of science fiction literature is the integration of space opera and the future"　

　　Science fiction literature should be a good story first, and science fiction ideas should take second place.　

　　There are many kinds of good stories, such as setting up suspense, making people unable to stop reading, or setting up a very good core character, everyone cares about the person, no matter the plot twists or turns, this character will touch the reader’s heart. The story and characters should be well matched. In my opinion, these two points are actually more important than science fiction concept. If I think of good stories and characters, but it is not science fiction, then I will not write it as science fiction. I will write it as a mystery or romance novel and publish it in other genres of literature.　

　　Science fiction literature is very strange. Science fiction is the only one that doesn’t tell stories, doesn’t write characters, and doesn’t even have to be very good at writing. As long as you come up with a science fiction idea and everyone understands the core image, you can feel the charm of science fiction. Recently, I published a new book "Star Traveler". Why is it called "Star Traveler"? Because I have written a lot of machines before, such as "Walking with Robots", "Robots", and "Wet Metal". Strictly speaking, they are all robot integration. In fact, what I really want to embody the charm of science fiction is space opera, which is the integration of the future.　

　　For example, nowadays, most people would pick up a mobile phone, meet a person, and add a contact information, and you could never lose some way to contact them for the rest of your life. However, in the future, if you go to another planet, you will never see this person, and time and space will play their role again. This is the romance that only happened in that era, and this is gone forever. Therefore, in "Star Traveler", I wanted to create this image, and I finally named it according to this image.　

　　For the future, I hope that more fresh blood will pour in and make the "sci-fi" plate bigger together, so that the cake will be bigger. If you really like sci-fi, sci-fi is something that can be persisted in, and even said, it is worth the author to sacrifice or give up something. The premise is that it does affect the author’s life. From now on, sci-fi is able to do this. Maybe I didn’t have the confidence to say this 10 years ago, but what I see so far is that this industry can support and even drive a group of people.

Recently, rumors about "BYD’s new car broke its axle as soon as it was picked up" are flying all over the sky, accompanied by a group of photos of broken axles. It seems that the evidence is conclusive, which makes people believe it. For a main car that has just been listed, no matter which brand, such negative news is very "explosive", and there will definitely be countless pairs of eyeing eyes staring at you: just waiting for you to have an accident! Finally something happened, great!

What is the specific situation? It is said on the Internet that a gentleman went to the 4S shop to pick up a BYD Qin PRO during the National Day. Just one day later, the car didn’t even have a license plate. When driving to a certain section, the car suddenly had an accident. As can be seen from the circulated photos, Qin PRO’s car actually broke the axle, one side of the car tilted, and the rim looked like a ankle, which looked very funny. The occurrence of this incident made the owner very scared.

However, if you look closely at the news, you will find that it is very contradictory. There are actually two stories circulating on the Internet, the same picture, one is the owner of Guangdong, and the other is Mr. Meng from Anhui.

I don’t know, even some people from the media didn’t even figure out the basic car price. The 150,000+car was said to have been "bought for 90,000 yuan", and then they began to make up stories, just to attract attention and defraud the reading.

Xiaobian will give you a careful analysis. The picture is definitely true. Qin pro is really broken, but there are several details to say:

In the first detail, the pro logo is on the upper right corner of the rear of the production car, but the model with the broken axle in the photo does not. Anyone who has paid attention to Qin pro before knows that this is the characteristic of the test car.

The second detail, the wheel hub of the broken axle is different from that of the mass production car. The wheel hub of the broken axle is straight, but the wheel hub of the mass production car has obvious folding angle.

The third detail, the rearview mirror of the broken axle car is folded, which means that the car has been turned off and locked, indicating that the driver is not nearby. If it is really the owner, will the car be locked and left if it breaks down in the middle of the road? Obviously impossible.

Through the above three details, it can be basically confirmed that the broken axle car is a test car, not a mass production version. Some people will ask, what are we testing when the cars are on the market? Of course, we have to test it. Does it mean that the project of this car is over when the car goes on the market? Only companies that are not responsible for consumers will do this.

In order to give the public a truth, BYD officially voiced this matter for the first time, expounding the so-called "new car broken shaft" incident.

It can be seen from Guan Wei’s post that the accident vehicle is not a production model, but a test vehicle for testing, which is basically consistent with everyone’s previous inference.

Secondly, this car is not tested by BYD itself, but provided by BYD to Jiatong, a tire supplier, for tire wear test (Qin pro itself uses Michelin tires). This is a good answer to the question raised by some people, "Why are the cars still being tested?".

Thirdly, there is no so-called "broken axle" in this car, but the tire falls off because of frequent wheel replacement during the test, improper operation by the staff and irregular tire installation. The on-site investigation photos provided by BYD officials show that all five nuts on the right front wheel of the car in the incident have fallen off. According to the inspection, the transmission shaft, lower swing arm, steering knuckle and other parts of the car are in good condition, and there is no damage, and there is no so-called "broken shaft" problem.

For BYD’s response, in the face of external doubts, the investigation results and the truth of the incident were announced in time, indicating that BYD is full of confidence in this incident. In this way, the worries of the majority of riders were resolved in time, and at the same time, some people with ulterior motives were severely hit in the face.

As for whether the broken axle incident can reflect the quality problem, Xiao Bian dare not say that the broken axle of the test vehicle is a matter of course. After all, as a test vehicle, you don’t know how many kilometers it has driven before and what kind of collision it has experienced. Only the real owner has a say in the quality of the car.

[TechWeb] On February 10th, BYD Qin PLUS DM-i 2023 Champion Edition was officially launched today, and five models were launched. The pure battery life includes 55KM and 120KM versions, and the official guide price is 99,800-145,800 yuan. It is worth mentioning that this is also the first time that the price of DM-i models has dropped to less than 100,000.

As a "subversive of fuel cars", Qin PLUS DM-i 2023 Champion Edition officially opens a new era of "the same price of oil and electricity" with five major subversion and four major rejuvenation, and will subvert fuel to the end!

In terms of appearance, the new car continues the design of the previous model, adding a jet blue appearance and a warm sun brown interior color matching, which makes the texture full. In the interior, the electric adjustment of the passenger seat and the heating function of the front seat are added, and the 8-speaker hi-fi system is also upgraded for the high-profile models.

In terms of intelligence, the 2023 Champion Edition upgraded the 8.8-inch floating instrument with rich functions and better display effect. Equipped with the brand-new DiLink 4.0(4G) intelligent network connection system, the UI interface is more beautiful and the voice recognition is faster.

In terms of power, the new car is equipped with DM-i super hybrid technology, with Xiaoyun-plug-in special 1.5L high-efficiency engine, EHS electric hybrid system and DM-i super hybrid special blade battery as the core, to create an electric hybrid technology, which brings five subversive driving experiences of "fast, provincial, quiet, smooth and green", with an acceleration of 7.3s per 100 kilometers, a fuel consumption of 3.8L per 100 kilometers and a comprehensive battery life of 1,244.

branch of academic or vocational studyTechnical cockpit, luxury materials

　　As the flagship model in BYD’s product matrix at present, Hanche has set a new "ceiling" in China’s new energy vehicle market in terms of technology, user reputation and sales performance. From July 2020 to September 2021, BYD’s cumulative sales volume exceeded 120,000, and Han DM (parameter picture) was the champion of medium and large plug-in hybrid cars with a score of 33,200. A few days ago, BYD Han DM’s exploration tour came to Shenzhen. Through the test drive, we found that BYD Han DM can be said to be the most recommended "treasure" player among the 200,000-class models.

Oil+electricity, the price is more expensive?

　　Before talking about products, we must talk about the price or value first. In our general understanding, the same grade of fuel vehicles will be cheaper than electric vehicles, while the plug-in hybrid vehicles will be more expensive because there are no fewer engines, gearboxes, fuel tanks, batteries, motors and electronic control systems. However, the two models of BYD Han DM are priced at 219,800 yuan and 239,800 yuan respectively, which are more expensive than the entry-level version of Han EV standard endurance version luxury model (209,800 yuan), and it is cheaper than other Han EV versions.

　　According to the "landing price", the luxury version of the Chinese DM four-wheel drive performance model with tax exemption and vehicle and vessel tax reduction is actually lower than that of the Camry 2021 2.0S Fengshang Edition and the Accord 2022 1.5T+CVT Fantasy Night Premium Edition, but they are not comparable in size, configuration or performance. Therefore, in the face of a strong sense of value, it is not an insurmountable problem to choose independence or joint venture.

The flagship gas field is full, and the Dragon Face is highly recognizable.

　　Han has been on the market for a year, and the chances of encountering it on the road are not low, so its appearance is believed that most people will not feel strange. Thanks to the length of nearly 5 meters and the wheelbase of 2.92 meters, as a medium and large car, it has a very good sense of gas field. Compared with the sense of futurity and technology of Chinese EV, Chinese DM pays more attention to the sense of strength and luxury, and the large-size air intake grille takes good care of the aesthetics of consumers who are used to the traditional fuel car modeling, giving people more intimacy.

　　Han DM’s headlights do not adopt the slender design of Han EV, but the overall shape is still exquisite and sharp. In addition to the matrix LED beads, three blue-purple light sources are added for decoration, which shows that it is the design element of "Dragon Claw". As the saying goes, the entry is high, and the two models of Han DM come standard with automatic headlights, adaptive far and near light switching, steering auxiliary lighting, headlight delay closing and other functions, and the configuration level is really not low.

　　The side and rear of the new car are the editors’ favorite angles, and the combination of low-lying+slender+large-slip back can be so coordinated, especially the bright black color scheme of the real car, which creates a sense of advanced beyond the "guide price". When dealing with the pictures, the friends around me are still discussing, and this texture is even a bit of Paramera.

　　On a luxury car, there is no shortage of hidden doorknobs full of ritual. In fact, Han’s logo, wind guide slot, small side window and other details have spent a lot of thought, and many surprises are waiting for the owner to discover.

　　As a four-wheel drive performance car that can break through 100 in 4.7 seconds, Han DM uses 19-inch multi-spoke wheels. Compared with the wheel hub shape, the 245/45 R19 tire from Ma brand MC6 series is obviously more brilliant. This sports tire emphasizes the grip and stability in dry and wet places, but the tire noise and comfort have not deteriorated.

　　There are not many fancy designs at the tail of Han DM, but the duckling tail, penetrating taillights with "dragon claws" and other elements are just right. As a whole, straight lines are used to create a stable and full atmosphere. Although the hidden exhaust layout is adopted below, the visual effect is not bad at all. 4.7s is not as big as Han, which shows BYD’s confidence in Han. It’s really a tough guy.

　　Byd Han’s interior was built by a former Mercedes-Benz S-class designer, and you can feel the sense of luxury from the moment you open the door. On the premise of keeping BYD’s familiar rotatable large screen and "Chinese buttons", China elements such as tower air conditioning air outlet and dragon heart gear shift lever are added to the car. The embracing cockpit creates a luxury car-like internal layout through stretched horizontal lines, and with high-grade materials such as wood decorative boards and brown leather, it brings strong grades and luxury.

　　The two-piece multi-function steering wheel is designed with a flat bottom, which can give a high score regardless of the feel or the convenience of buttons. This car supports the adjustment of steering wheel strength, and it can provide a most suitable state whether it is leisurely walking or intense driving or male/female car owners rotating.

　　The 12.3-inch LCD dashboard has been gradually popularized in BYD models, and the UI design and displayed data have basically maintained a high degree of family unity, and all functions can be operated by the buttons on the steering wheel. DiPilot driver assistance system includes intelligent navigation, lane assistance system, traffic sign recognition, predictive emergency braking system and other functions. The active and passive safety configuration has been several "positions" ahead of the joint venture model with the same price.

　　Many BYD models below Han only provide a 12.8-inch rotatable central control panel, but Han’s body has increased to 15.6 inches, accounting for almost one-third of the entire center console, which is very shocking. As for the software, the new car has a built-in NFC car key and a third-generation DiLink intelligent networking system, which supports various voice interaction and networking functions, and the APP application store is very playable.

　　In this large and medium-sized flagship car, there is no need to worry about any head space or leg space. The wide and thick seat is wrapped in Nappa calf leather with diamond grain, which not only has excellent touch and sitting feeling, but also has a luxurious texture visually. Of course, its front seats also support multi-directional electric adjustment and heating/ventilation functions, which can be perfectly handled in summer and winter.

　　The back row of Han DM is also suitable for business reception scenes. In addition to the "boss key" in the co-pilot seat, panoramic sunroof, independently controllable air conditioner in the back row, generous armrest box, etc. can make passengers feel comfortable and enjoy the executive-class car.

High performance and low energy consumption, DM hybrid depends on independent research and development.

　　The two models of Han DM have the same power configuration, both of which are equipped with a plug-in hybrid system consisting of a 2.0T turbocharged engine and a motor. The 2.0T all-aluminum engine has a maximum power of 141kW and a maximum torque of 320N·m, and is responsible for driving the front axle with a 6-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox. The maximum power and torque of the rear motor are 180kW and 330N·m； respectively. The combined force of the two engines can output the maximum power of 321KW and the maximum torque of 650N·m, and it can break through 100 in 4.7 seconds. The comprehensive fuel consumption of NEDC is only 1.4L/ 100 km, and the minimum fuel consumption in state of charge is 5.9L/ 100 km. In terms of battery, its blade battery capacity is 15.2kWh and its pure battery life is 81 km.

　　Hybrid vehicles do not simply use oil after running out of electricity, but need to intelligently manage the cooperation between motors and engines to further improve the fuel consumption and power of the whole vehicle. Fortunately, BYD’s DM technology platform is a technology in the hands of China car companies, which not only leads the world, but also derives DM-p (performance version) and DM-i (energy-saving version) to meet the more needs of different times and different users.

　　Han DM is the product of dual-engine four-wheel drive architecture of DM-p platform, and it is also the only plug-in hybrid car equipped with four-wheel drive, with four driving modes: EV, HEV, ECO and SPORT. No matter when starting at a standstill or cruising at a high speed, when the full throttle is accelerating, a gentle "Vi" motor sounds in the ear, and the strong acceleration will directly press the body on the seat. Looking at the climbing of the speedometer and the scenery moving rapidly backward outside the window, I don’t want to put a million super-runs in my eyes. In the face of absolute acceleration ability, I can’t help but sigh that adding "electricity" is the future.

　　Although the performance is very ambitious, road safety does not allow drivers to always drive like "chicken blood". It is more important whether this car has an excellent dynamic performance under normal driving conditions. Han DM is also very light in EV mode, and the motor is not castrated because of its identity as a hybrid vehicle. No matter starting, accelerating or changing lanes, it can do whatever it wants. The smooth and powerful acceleration with excellent sound insulation effect is no different from that of a pure electric vehicle. As a key point, the pure battery life of Han DM is basically the same as the actual driving distance, which is very rare for a medium-sized and large car with a high weight.

　　In HEV hybrid mode, most of the low-speed working conditions of the vehicle will be dominated by motor output to reduce the overall energy consumption. In order to test the matching between the engine and the gearbox, we deliberately set the battery SOC to 70% to simulate the "power shortage" condition. The vibration and sound of this 2.0T engine are very low, so it is difficult to detect it without deliberately feeling it. When the speed is below 40/h, the shifting action of the gearbox will have an unobtrusive sense of handover. However, after the speed exceeds 50/h, until the high-speed cruising state, the engine and gearbox basically have no sense of existence.

　　In fact, HEV intelligent hybrid mode driving is the simplest and most direct. The system will automatically control the output of the engine and the motor, and the connection between the power is also very smooth. Basically, only by staring at the screen can you know whether the power is provided by the motor or the engine. Even if it is used as a fuel vehicle without charging, the system will use kinetic energy recovery and excess engine power to charge the battery, so as to keep the vehicle "charged" and reduce the final fuel consumption. Under the comfortable chassis and good sound insulation "assist", the driving texture of Han DM shows the taste of high-end luxury cars.

finally

　　Engine+motor is not simply 1+1=2. As the flagship model of plug-in hybrid, Han DM has five advantages, such as license plate, cost performance, fuel consumption, performance and technology. In today’s environment where the penetration rate of charging piles is not high and the oil price is not low, even in cities without "double limits", PHEV models with strong power and no charging anxiety are obviously still the best choice.

With the arrival of the new energy era, many car companies have started the road to the new energy track. No matter whether it is a new force to build a car or a traditional car company, there is no doubt that they are competing to make efforts. After all, who can take the lead in bringing better products into the market will get the market initiative, but is this really the case? I believe that Haval Xiaolong MAX will appear in most people’s answers. The positioning of plug-in hybrid medium-sized SUV, the standard four-wheel drive system in the whole system, and the good configuration level, the key price is less than 160,000, and this "king of volume" can be said to give a lesson to peers.

Modeling design is unique.

In fact, most of today’s car designs are similar, especially the design of new energy vehicles in modeling is difficult for consumers to find bright spots. Although different people have different opinions on the appearance, many young consumers are very concerned about the first impression of a new car. Therefore, on the new energy track, Harvard brand does not use the design style of dolls. On the one hand, it wants to show consumers a new side. On the other hand, Harvard brand is committed to creating a more unique new car design, making the brand more in line with the aesthetics of young consumers and showing the brand’s latest product image. Harvard Xiaolong MAX is one of them.

As a plug-in SUV, Haval Xiaolong MAX adopts minimalism as a whole, but skillfully incorporates unique elements to create a brand-new product image that is younger and more scientific. In itself, it is a new breakthrough in technology. If the design does not bring forth new ideas and insists on the traditional SUV design, it will not only fail to keep up with the trend of the times, but also make consumers lose interest. Therefore, the value of Haval Xiaolong MAX alone will definitely make consumers shine.

From the appearance alone, the style of Haval Xiaolong MAX this time can be said to be very different from the fuel car under the previous brand. The design of low wind resistance body lines gives the new car a sense of movement and smoothness, and also improves the overall aerodynamic performance. The unique laser mesh air intake grille also increases the recognition visually, making Haval Xiaolong MAX stand out among many models.

The most impressive thing about the interior is the 12.3-inch full-color LCD central control screen +12.3-inch full-color LCD auxiliary driving screen+12.3-inch full-color LCD instrument. The three screens do not interfere with each other and the image is clear. Among them, the 12.3-inch full-color LCD co-driver screen is equipped with the exclusive entertainment system of the co-driver, which greatly enhances the fun of driving. This design makes the co-pilot no longer feel boring during the long journey.

What new energy needs is safety.

At present, there are many types of new energy vehicles, and the number of new energy vehicles is gradually increasing. Therefore, the safety problems of some new energy vehicles have indeed attracted the attention of many consumers, such as spontaneous combustion and car accidents caused by intelligent driving failure, which are the fuses that restrict consumers from starting new energy vehicles. However, whether it is active or passive, Haval Xiaolong MAX can be said to be full in terms of safety configuration, giving drivers and their families a full sense of security.

First of all, Haval Xiaolong MAX is equipped with Coffee Pilot intelligent driving system, and the top model is equipped with 22 intelligent sensors, which can support L2+ intelligent driving assistance function, which undoubtedly provides drivers, especially novices, with more reliable driving safety protection.

For example, in the scene of daily commuting and long-distance travel, the system can provide intelligent driving assistance functions including ACC full-speed domain adaptive cruise, intelligent cruise, lever change (HWA), intelligent cornering, intelligent dodge active emergency braking, lane departure warning, lane keeping and emergency lane keeping assistance. If you are a novice driver who just got a driver’s license, this configuration can not only make you tired after long-distance driving, but also minimize the occurrence of traffic accidents and ensure the safety of vehicles and occupants.

Moreover, the 540 panoramic panoramic image equipped by Haval Xiaolong MAX can capture road safety hazards more comprehensively during driving, avoid potholes and obstacles in time, and avoid tire sinking and chassis rubbing. Full-scene automatic parking system has three auxiliary functions: integrated parking, remote parking and tracking reversing. By identifying the appropriate parking space and automatically controlling the vehicle, the driver can drive in and out of the parking space only by manipulating the vehicle according to the system prompts, which greatly reduces the parking difficulty of novice drivers in hutong and narrow parking spaces.

Don’t worry about passive safety. The front row has double pre-tightening belts with limited force, and the rear row has tight-limiting seat belts on both sides. The proportion of high-strength steel used in the car body is 73.6%, and the whole system is equipped with 6 airbags as standard, which has reached the C-NCAP five-star safety standard.

Hi4 with intelligent four-wheel drive electric hybrid technology

As a new energy vehicle, especially plug-in hybrid vehicles, efficient powertrain is the biggest selling point. Haval Xiaolong MAX is built on the latest hybrid platform of Great Wall Motor and equipped with a new hybrid architecture Hi4. The power system consists of a brand-new 1.5L high thermal efficiency engine, a two-speed hybrid special transmission, a 70kW front axle motor, a 150kW rear axle motor and a battery pack. The comprehensive power of the system is 205kW, and the comprehensive torque is 585 N m. It takes only 6.8 seconds to accelerate at zero speed, with faster response speed and stronger torque output, which is more advantageous than the traditional double power.

Hi4, a new hybrid architecture, adopts the innovative configuration of series-parallel electric four-wheel drive with front and rear axles, and combines intelligent energy management and iTVC intelligent torque vector control system to accurately identify real-time road conditions and realize intelligent dynamic switching of 3 engines and 9 modes. Equipped with a brand-new single-motor two-speed hybrid special transmission, it adopts fixed-axis gear train and lightweight design to realize multi-mode switching, flat-wire motor and high-efficiency bearing, and all modes operate efficiently to reduce transmission loss.

　　CCTV News:Faced with the question that "voice" is greater than "product", since the beginning of this year, the new car-making force, which is mainly based on the Internet, has begun to provide a large number of new cars to the market. In the first half of this year, the production and sales of the three head enterprises, Tucki, Weimar and Weilai, all approached 10,000 vehicles. While consumers are experiencing the new mode of building cars on the Internet, new problems have also emerged.

　　Just bought a new car, changed the old one, and the loyal car owner turned black.

　　Early in the morning, Zhu Yue drove his new car, which he had just bought for less than a month, from Shenzhen to Xpeng Motors headquarters. Now, he has long forgotten the joy when he picked up the car. The purpose of going to Guangzhou this time is to discuss this new car.

　　Zhu Yue, owner of Xpeng Motors, Shenzhen, Guangdong:I feel trapped and cheated. Because at the beginning, I also wanted a high battery life when I ordered this car, but the sales kept telling me that there was no such version.

　　To Zhu Yue’s surprise and anger, on July 10th, Xpeng Motors officially released the G3 2020 model and accepted the reservation at the same time. The new model not only fully optimizes the chassis and braking performance, but also greatly increases the maximum cruising range from 365 km to 520 km, while the price has only increased by more than 10,000 yuan.

　　Zhu Yue, owner of Xpeng Motors, Shenzhen, Guangdong:I can’t accept this high-endurance version later. I have repeatedly stressed the need for a high-endurance version even if the price is increased.

　　What makes car owners most dissatisfied is that in June, many salespeople not only denied that there would be a new car with high endurance in the near future, but also urged car owners to book cars on the grounds that subsidies for new energy vehicles would decline.

　　Hao Xianju, owner of Xpeng Motors, Guangzhou, Guangdong:There is no reason to build a car, only half a month and then build it. So I feel misled and cheated.

　　Fan Nina, Head of Guangzhou Gaode Land Experience Center in Xpeng Motors:We also know the news synchronously with the consumer, just one hour in advance.

　　Data show that G3, as the first product in Xpeng Motors, did not start mass delivery until March this year. In other words, most car owners have only used 2019 new cars for less than 4 months, and now they have become old models. In June 2019 alone, the 2019 model of G3 sold 2,237 vehicles, accounting for almost a quarter of the total cumulative sales of 9,596 vehicles.

　　Li Pengcheng, General Manager of Xpeng Motors Brand Public Relations:There are some differences between the new forces of making cars and traditional automobile enterprises. Our products will be iterated quickly from now to the future, and the hardware iteration, such as the electronic control of battery motors, has indeed developed rapidly in recent years, so the product iteration will be relatively faster.

　　The solution is not satisfactory. It is difficult for consumers to defend their rights.

　　In the face of the dissatisfaction of car owners, recently, He Xiaopeng, chairman of Xpeng Motors, publicly apologized on the Internet. "The rapid iteration of our hardware really blocked our former Pengyou, sorry!" This week, Xpeng Motors officially gave the exclusive rights and interests of the old car owners, but consumers didn’t buy it. Just this weekend, car owners in many cities across the country are defending their rights to Xiaopeng Automobile.

　　At the Xpeng Motors Service Center of Chengshou Temple in Beijing, more than 30 car owners and the staff of Xpeng Motors are having a heated debate. According to the solution put forward by Xpeng Motors on July 24th, every old car owner has two choices: to get a consumption fund of 10,000 yuan now, or to choose the right to replace it with a 60% discount when it is replaced in Xpeng Motors three years later. Faced with such a solution, the car owners at the scene did not agree.

　　The legal person believes that if the salesperson’s introduction to the old model is true and no other facts are fabricated, it will be difficult to legally determine that it constitutes fraud, and it will be difficult to terminate the contract. At the same time, it is not easy to organize evidence to prove that salespeople are subjectively and intentionally concealing facts.

　　Li Bin, lawyer of China Consumers Association Lawyers Group:If all the information propaganda of the old car itself is true, it just means that you bought the old car because you didn’t know that the new car was coming on the market, which obviously doesn’t conform to the legal situation that you can legally return the car unilaterally, so I’m afraid it won’t be realized.

　　Iteration accelerates to normal, and new forces encounter new problems.

　　The core of the dispute between consumers and Xpeng Motors is the iteration of automobile product upgrading. Under normal circumstances, the price of traditional cars will be gradually lowered over time. Car companies will generally forecast the new models in advance, and promote the price reduction of the previous generation models to a certain extent, and the update time is generally 3 ~ 4 years. This time, Xpeng Motors caused controversy mainly because the product iteration was too fast, and the news of updating the model was not told to consumers before. These new problems are also industry problems faced by Internet car companies.

　　The new car-making forces, represented by Weilai, Tucki and Weimar, have deep Internet genes, and their sales models are very different from those of traditional cars. On the one hand, the iterative speed of product upgrade is fast, and the technology will be updated in half a year or even three months. On the other hand, because the enterprise has a weak foundation for building cars, the production cycle of initial models is long, and consumers have to wait for several months or even more than one year after placing orders.

　　Experts said that at present, the domestic battery cost is basically declining at a rate of 20% per year, and the cruising range is rapidly increasing, with "revolutionary changes" almost every year. In order to seize the market, all car companies will apply the latest technology to new cars at the first time, and the price is also sold at the cost.

　　In December last year, the second mass production model ES6 of Weilai was officially launched, which caused a dispute about whether the old model ES8 would be eliminated or reduced in price. On February 28 this year, Tesla officially announced that the price of all the models on sale had been greatly reduced, which was fiercely resisted by the old car owners. Tesla was also forced to introduce a compensation plan for users who had placed an order and did not mention the car. How to deal with the relationship between technology upgrading, rapid product iteration and consumers will be an urgent problem for Internet car companies.
