Meituan confirms full acquisition of Mobike, and Mobike says the deposit is guaranteed to be refunded at any time

  "Wang Xing led Meituan to create a miracle of the internet, and I believe he will lead Mobike to new heights," Mobike’s founder team said in an internal email. "Employees’ salaries, options, etc. will also benefit from mergers and acquisitions and will be better protected."

  Yesterday, Meituan and Mobike jointly confirmed that they have signed an agreement for Meituan to acquire Mobike wholly, but the acquisition amount has not been disclosed. Mobike said that the merger-related procedures will be completed in the near future, and Mobike will still maintain brand independence and operational independence. The position of the founding team of Mobike remains unchanged, and Meituan CEO Wang Xing will serve as the chairperson of Mobike.

  Meituan Mobike will achieve resource sharing

  Yesterday, Meituan and Mobike jointly announced that they had signed an agreement for Meituan to acquire Mobike wholly, but the specific acquisition amount was not disclosed. After the transaction is completed, Mobike will maintain its brand and operation independence.

  "As an innovative green mobility solution, Mobike will be an important part of our ecosystem," Mr. Wang said. "Mobike is the most convenient tool to travel 3km in the city. It will become the best connection for Meituan to shop, home and travel scenes, providing users with a more complete closed-loop consumption experience and greatly enriching their consumption scenarios."

  Mobike and Meituan share a common vision for promoting a healthy and better life, Mobike said. "In the future, we will optimize and share resources in technology, operation, marketing, Client Server and other aspects by integrating the respective advantages of Mobike and Meituan. We firmly believe that this will bring better experience and more convenient life to users of Mobike and Meituan."

  Mobike will continue to operate independently

  Meituan said that after the acquisition is completed, Mobike’s management team will remain unchanged, Wang Xiaofeng will continue to serve as CEO, Hu Weiwei will continue to serve as president, Xia Yiping will continue to serve as CTO, other members of Mobike’s management team will continue to hold existing positions, and Wang Xing will serve as Mobike’s chairperson.

  "Wang Xing led Meituan to create a miracle of the internet, and I believe he will lead Mobike to new heights," Mobike’s founder team said in an internal email. "Employee compensation, options, etc. will also benefit from mergers and acquisitions."

  "There is no such thing as a’exit ‘," Hu Weiwei wrote in Moments, referring to rumours that the "founding team of Mobike will be out after being acquired by Meituan". "In my opinion, everything is a new beginning." However, analysts believe that Hu Weiwei and the founding team of Mobike may soon leave Mobike. Internet observer Ge Jia believes: "Although Hu Weiwei continues to serve as the president of Mobike, the founding team continues to work independently, but from the historical experience of mergers and acquisitions in the Internet industry, Hu Weiwei and the founding team left Mobike only one day earlier and one day later."

  Mobike says the deposit is refundable at any time

  After Mobike was acquired, many users left messages saying that they do not care about who Mobike belongs to, but whether the security of the deposit can be guaranteed. At present, users must pay a deposit of 299 yuan before using Mobike bicycles. A previous Mobike balance sheet showed that Mobike currently has more than 9.80 billion yuan in user deposits. In this regard, Mobike told the Beijing Youth Daily reporter that "Mobike always guarantees the safety of user deposits and can be refunded at any time".

  In 2015, Mobike was officially launched. Currently, Mobike has entered more than 200 cities in 12 countries around the world, with more than 200 million users and more than 30 million rides per day. Mobike is known as one of China’s "New Four Great Inventions".

  Financial Observation

  Meituan Mobike’s deal is to get what you want

  Several industry insiders said the Meituan and Mobike deal was a "win-win situation".

  Ge Jia, an internet observer, told the Beijing Youth Daily that for Meituan, the acquisition of Mobike can bring a dual effect of business synergy and capital spillover. "Meituan is laid out according to the scene. Meituan believes that all life scenes in the city will involve travel needs. There are midway, short-distance, and ultra-short-distance. Mobike’s market is ultra-short-distance travel within 3 kilometers, and this market, combined with Meituan’s life scene, will play a certain business synergy effect. In addition, Meituan’s current business line is relatively complicated. Before, it was only long-distance travel with food, drink, and machine wine, but there was no city travel." For Mobike, Ge Jia believes, "Selling is a very good choice. Shared bicycles are facing many problems such as excessive cost expenditure, excessive vehicle loss, and unsmooth revenue growth. It is quite appropriate for a company with a rich business scenario like Meituan to take over Mobike." Internet analyst Zhang Jiangjian also believes: "Transportation is an asset-heavy industry. At present, no giant is really profitable, whether it is online car-hailing or shared bicycles, and they are all in the stage of burning money to cultivate the market. For Mobike, instead of continuing to burn money and fight fiercely with peers, it is better to find a giant with capital strength and synergy effect to make the life service market bigger."

  Wang Ruchen, founder of Quake Media, told Beiqing Daily that Meituan and Mobike’s deal was "each taking what they need". "Meituan needs companies like Mobike. First of all, the latter has a lot of data on short-distance travel, and these data portraits are closely surrounded by the’localization ‘part, which can be naturally integrated with the new retail scene, which is exactly in line with what is now called the’decisive battle of 3 kilometers’. Secondly, Meituan is currently a platform company, the transaction attributes of the business are weak, and the data of its own retail sales is relatively small. On the contrary, Mobike is a company with heavy assets, and its cash flow and monthly flow are relatively stable, which can just make up for some of Meituan’s shortcomings."

Some time ago, many friends saw the photos on the Internet and came to care about my physical condition. I would like to reassure everyone that this is the movie I am currently shooting, and it requires the look of white hair and white beard. Over the years, as long as the plot requires it, whether it is a thrilling action scene or a different look, I am willing to try it. Sixty-two years into the industry, I am still making movies today, which is worth cherishing.

Recently, when my colleagues were organizing the company’s database, they dug out a lot of previous photos, and they selected some for me to accompany this Weibo. Looking at these photos, I have a lot of emotions in my heart. If I want to combine these emotions into one sentence: I love movies, I love you.

Once again, thank you all for your birthday wishes. I hope everyone is healthy and happy!

Huawei P7 will be released in Paris tomorrow, with three major predictions for the conference

On May 7, Huawei will hold a global press conference at the Centennial Cathedral of Paris, the romantic capital, to officially unveil the mystery of Huawei’s blockbuster flagship model Ascend P7 in 2014. This is also another gorgeous feast on the top of Europe after Huawei’s Ascend P6 was released in London in 2013. As one of the most anticipated smartphones of the year, this Ascend P7 designed by netizens with the "most beautiful back" is indeed too mysterious to excite domestic netizens.

Before this, Huawei Youtube released a 30-second video promotion trailer, fusing French romance with Chinese classical elements, which can be said to have whetted the market’s appetite. Since then, some samples of Ascend P7 have been released, which has aroused heated discussions among fans and even the whole society. For the growing enthusiasm, Huawei Vice President Yu Chengdong also expressed confidence to the outside world: "The Ascend P7 real machine will be more brilliant and awesome than the information you get!", which once again ignited consumers’ "expectations", so, Huawei Ascend P7 tomorrow in the Paris Cathedral will be staged what kind of grand occasion, the author will also go to the front line of the conference to bring you first-hand fresh information, before all the good results are announced, let’s take a look at the charm of Huawei Ascend P7 and several highlights of this release.

Aspect 1: Adhering to the stunning aesthetic concept of "attitude"

From the photos of the suspected Huawei Ascend P7 real machine currently exposed on the Internet, the body structure of this mobile phone is similar to that of the Huawei Ascend P6 released last year. The front and rear panels are still made of glass, and the UI adopts a newly designed Emotion UI, which is more flat.

But according to Huawei’s official information, the Ascend P7 will be more elegant and refined than the P6. It is said that the model uses Corning’s third-generation gorilla glass back cover, which has been polished by 7 layers of processes, and is known as the "most beautiful mobile phone back" in the world. And when the incredible ultra-thin body, all-metal shell, elegant arc and other "beautiful parameters" are integrated, Huawei P7 first captured the "love" of a large number of experiencers.

The extremely slim appearance makes the P7 full of fashion charm, which is also Huawei’s pursuit of aesthetic design attitude. However, unlike previous P series products, the design emphasizes the ultra-thin sense of technology and fashion. This time, the design concept of the P7 has added more humanistic atmosphere and design elements, pursuing the ultimate fashionism and the pursuit of perfection.

Aspect 2: Follow the "people-friendly" price strategy system

From the previous exposure of hardware parameters, 5-inch 1080p screen screen, front 8 million + rear 13 million camera, 1.8GHz HiSilicon Kirin 910 quad-core processor, 2GB RAM + 16GB ROM, built-in integrated 2500mAh battery, support for the world’s fastest 4G LTE network and other configurations are no longer "pipa half cover", and set excellent hardware configuration as one of the P7 also let it directly into the ranks of "flagship", although the price has not been announced, but with reference to other brands of the same level of "ace models", Huawei P7 price still makes consumers eager to generate more conjectures.

The author learned from relevant channels that the market price of Huawei P7 is not low, but it is definitely worth the money. As we all know, in the post-smartphone era, it is no longer the simple system parameters that determine consumers’ purchase desire, but the in-depth demand that a brand can provide. Smartphones bring an unprecedented lifestyle, which is also the core strategy for laying out the mid-to-high-end mobile phone market. From the perspective of Huawei’s star models in history, the price of Huawei P7 is likely to stabilize at around 3,000. For the P7, which has a beautiful and extremely fashionable body, a perfect ID design architecture and a user experience of humanized EMUI, this price is undoubtedly more "close to the people" and has absolute market appeal.

Aspect 3: The future market situation that cannot be "limited"

From the popularity gathering before the release, to the competing reports of the world media, to the focus of the entire IT industry… It can be said that Huawei P7 has not yet been listed, and has won the market opportunity with the high-quality reputation of P6. Once, Huawei Ascend P6 has been listed in just three months, and the overall retail sales volume has exceeded 1 million, which has attracted a strong "shock" in the entire mobile phone industry, attracting the envy of countless international brands. In 2014, in the face of the trend of stronger diversity in the smartphone market and a larger user base, the entire industry continues to look high on the market prospects of Huawei P7.

In 2013, Huawei’s end point has won a high reputation in the iconic high-end market with the success of Mate and P6. The P6 represents a historic breakthrough for Huawei, showcasing Huawei’s new product image and concept. While Huawei is currently competing with Samsung in the Chinese market, it has always been committed to establishing a global branding impression. This time, Ascend P7 once again chose Europe as the host of the conference, which also confirmed Huawei’s future marketing concept and development layout. As the protagonist of this conference, Huawei’s Ascend P7 will also redefine a new era of smartphones in terms of design, camera experience and network connectivity.

In the increasingly serious homogeneity in the post-mobile Internet era, the traditional linear thinking model will be replaced by a multi-dimensional innovation model, represented by Ascend P, Huawei has won a total victory in the intelligent end point product brand upgrade action defined by user experience. From now on, Huawei has shown its unique core competitiveness in terms of hardware configuration improvement, software system optimization, appearance creation and industrial design. The future sales boom can be expected, and whether it can become another classic after P6 in the minds of users, everything can only wait for the Paris conference on May 7 tomorrow, let us wait and see.

High salary prompts "homecoming tide" takeaway riders to become "sweet pastry"

  After asking about the types of work and salary, Zhang Yujie, a 40-year-old man from Zhaotong Town, Yunnan Province, picked up the registration form for the recruitment of takeaway riders and filled it out carefully. In the previous ten years, he had worked in many coastal areas. "Working outside is not as good as working at home. You earn about the same, and now you are close to home."

  Every day in Yunnan, tens of thousands of takeaway brothers ride electric bicycles on the road with hundreds of thousands of people’s rations. With the rapid development of the takeaway industry, a large number of migrant workers return to their hometowns to deliver takeout, forming a wave of takeaway riders returning to their hometowns for employment.

  Kunming Ele.me returnee rider Su Junbo said that he used to be a factory welder with a monthly income of 4,000 yuan, and he also went to Thailand and Japan to work. After a long journey in the outside world, he decided to return to his hometown to be a takeaway rider. He is now very satisfied with his job. His monthly income of about 7,000 yuan is very stable, and he can take care of his parents and family close to home.

  Like Su Junbo, Hongtao has been busy during the Qingming holiday. As a food delivery staff, he earns 4.5 yuan for every order he takes. On average, he can receive more than 60 orders a day and earn more than 8,000 yuan a month. Hongtao, who was born in 1989, is 30 years old and his hometown is Luquan. In 2016, he also squeezed into a 50-square-meter rental house with his wife and children and his parents. In 2017, Hongtao paid a down payment for the purchase of a house. At the end of last year, the whole family moved into a 110-square-meter commercial house in Anning City. Hongtao said that returning to his hometown for employment has allowed him to live a stable life.

  With the continuous growth of online market players, the scale of online transactions in Yunnan Province continued to expand steadily. Last year, the province’s online retail sales reached 77.941 billion yuan, an increase of more than 40% year-on-year. It is thanks to the rapid development of the takeaway industry that the demand for takeaway riders is growing.

  According to the relevant person in charge of Ele.me Kunming, 85% of the food delivery riders in Yunnan Province currently on the platform are from the local area; the relevant survey results for riders returning to their hometowns for employment show that 93% of the riders said the most important factor is: closer to home.

  "New economic formats like the takeaway industry are generating more job opportunities." The person in charge said that the platform actively carries out induction training for new riders and promotes "hand-holding". At the same time, it actively provides riders with subsidies for phone bills and vehicles, and there are additional rewards for business volume reaching certain standards. In addition, in order to allow more people to enter the industry voluntarily, since 2017, the company has allowed job seekers between the ages of 30 and 45 to apply for takeaway riders only need to bring their own motorcycles. Not only that, the company has also arranged staff dormitories for free, provided two meals a day for free, and purchased accident insurance for employees. The motorcycles ridden by employees are equipped with accident insurance, and the company will cover the bottom line in case of accidents. " In this way, the employment cost of job seekers is reduced, the employment rate is increased, and employees have no worries when working. "The person in charge said.

  With word-of-mouth, Ele.me is fully empowered online and offline, some merchants in Kunming, Dali, Yuxi and other places have tasted the sweetness, some local brands are being reborn, and more and more citizens are enjoying the "3-kilometer happy life circle". Consumers have more choices for dining, and the income of takeaway riders has generally increased by 30-40%, which has led more migrant workers who used to go out to work to return to their hometowns as takeaway riders.

  Former Yongsheng, a professor at Kunming University of Science and Technology, said that under the development of the new economic format, employment opportunities in rural areas such as counties have increased, and the rapid development of emerging markets has also provided them with an income level equivalent to working outside the country. Some manual workers no longer return to large and medium-sized cities to work, but choose to stay in their hometowns.

SAIC Hongyan’s overall overseas sales from January to August this year increased by 195% year-on-year, and some regions even increased by 255% year-on-year.

More than 70

Sailis automotive products have been exported to South America, Africa, the Middle East, South East Asia, and Europe and other more than 70 countries and regions around the world.

On October 15, the head of Cyrus Automobile’s overseas business unit received another urging from King Garment Textile, a dealer in Uzbekistan. "Let’s reach a cooperation as soon as possible." The dealer recently took a fancy to the Cyrus Blue Electric E5 model and is eager to sell it in Uzbekistan. Cyrus Automobile has recently received a lot of orders for overseas business like this.

Coincidentally, just a few days ago, Changan Automobile signed a contract with dozens of Mexican dealers, officially launched the Changan automobile channel network in Mexico, and the scale of the network channel exceeded 50,000 units/year.

"Made in Chongqing" cars are increasingly popular in overseas markets.

Statistics from Chongqing Customs show that in the first eight months of this year, Chongqing exported 232,000 cars, an increase of 23.2% year-on-year. In 2020, Chongqing exported only 91,000 cars. In less than three years, sales have doubled.

At present, the construction of infrastructure, logistics, social services and other fields in the "Belt and Road Initiative" countries is accelerating, and the demand for related commercial vehicles and professional vehicles has increased significantly.

In addition to Africa, SAIC Hongyan recently exported 100 smart heavy trucks and 500 SAIC Hongyan fire engines to Kazakhstan and other Central Asian countries and regions.

Cars are high-value products, and customers will definitely shop around when buying. Why is "made in Chongqing" favored?

In King Garment Textile’s opinion, Chongqing’s automotive products are of good quality and performance, and have strong market competitiveness. In addition, Chongqing’s new energy automotive products are also excellent in appearance and intelligence.

Take the blue electric E5 model he "likes" as an example. This is an electric hybrid medium-sized SUV, using the Sailis DE-i super electric drive intelligent platform, with a comprehensive cruising range of 1150 kilometers and equipped with HUAWEI Hicar 3.0 intelligence system. Whether it is power, space, configuration, or cost performance, it has great advantages in the Uzbek market.

"It can be said that’made in Chongqing ‘cars are becoming more and more famous in the market of countries where the Belt and Road Initiative is jointly built." PT. PTYUNINA, the Indonesian dealer of Sailis Automobile, said that the quality of these cars is stable, and the factory also uses intelligent technology, which greatly guarantees the production capacity and drives the employment of local workers.

From ASEAN to South America, from Central Asia, the Middle East to Africa to Europe, Chongqing’s auto industry focuses on the construction and improvement of a win-win ecosystem in the framework of the "Belt and Road Initiative", and has gained wide recognition and further established a brand effect. Some countries even came here and took the initiative to invite Chongqing car companies to settle down.

Previously, in order to attract Chang’an to build factories in the local area, Thailand has introduced a series of industrial policies including tax relief, consumer cash subsidies, and investment support.

Changan’s layout in Thailand also has many benefits: not only can it further expand its share in the Thai automobile market, but also it can play a leading role in South East Asia and enhance its international competitiveness.

The head of Changan Automobile’s overseas business said that at present, the tariff and non-tariff barriers of key products such as the joint construction of national automobiles have been further reduced, the circulation cost of auto parts has been reduced, the industrial chain and supply chain have been integrated, and the digital economy and green economy cooperation have promoted the application of intelligent networked new energy vehicles. These have opened up a broad space for Chongqing’s auto industry to "go overseas".

According to statistics from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, from January to July this year, domestic automobile exports 2.533 million, and Changan Automobile ranks among the top three Chinese automobile export enterprises. Russia, Saudi Arabia and Peru are the top three markets for Changan exports, reaching the export level of 40,000, 20,000 and 10,000 vehicles respectively.

The results of other Chongqing automakers are also very impressive. SAIC Hongyan’s overall overseas sales from January to August increased by 195% year-on-year, and some regions even increased by 255% year-on-year; Sailis Automobile exported cars through the new western land-sea channel, from 200 boxes in 2019 to 5,000 boxes in 2022, an increase of 25 times; Ruilan Automobile also exported more than 3,000 cars to the countries that jointly built the "Belt and Road Initiative" in the first half of this year.

Relying on hard power

Support overseas strategy

It is not easy for "made in Chongqing" cars to come this far overseas.

From being unknown in overseas markets to gaining market recognition, Changan Automobile has undergone seven or eight years of difficult progress.

At the end of 2015, Changan Automobile’s entry into the Saudi market was met with a "blow": due to the lack of full-chain sales experience in the early stage, the lack of after-sales management capabilities, and the lack of dealer experience, Changan’s business in Saudi Arabia was once difficult, and local users once looked down on Chinese brands.

After learning from the pain, Changan Automobile aimed at the localized needs of the Middle East market and worked hard to "fight a big battle".

For example, in order to better adapt to the local climate and road conditions, Changan technicians drove into the desert to conduct localized extreme heat tests. Over the course of several years, they "lost countless layers of skin", greatly improving the reliability of the product.

At the same time, based on the consumption characteristics of the local population and culture, Changan has personalized the products to make the cars more practical and intelligent.

The preparation is in place. Changan promised to provide a 5-year 150,000-kilometer long quality assurance policy for automobiles, and later the UNI series provided a 6-year 200,000-kilometer long quality assurance policy. Changan’s image as a "trusted Chinese brand" began to be established in Saudi Arabia.

Today, Changan’s users in the Saudi market have exceeded 60,000, and the annual sales volume has increased from several hundred to more than 30,000. Changan has also become the first Chinese brand to enter the top ten sales in the Saudi automotive market.

Changan won the Saudi market, ultimately relying on industrial accumulation and core technology. Through hard work, Changan has built a global R & D layout of "six countries and ten places", with 16 technology and Product Research & Development centers, 17 technology companies, and an engineering and technical team of more than 17,000 people from nearly 30 countries around the world. Whether it is the whole vehicle, chassis, engine, transmission, Changan can fully develop independently.

It invests 5% of its sales revenue in research and development every year, allowing Changan Automobile to give industry people a thumbs up in its capabilities in new energy, intelligence, styling design, and intelligent manufacturing. At present, Changan’s footprint has spread to more than 70 countries and regions around the world, forming a number of key 10,000-level core regional markets including the Middle East, North Africa, Central and South America, and Asia Pacific.

Sailis Automobile’s "going to sea" experience is similar to that of Changan. Since 2016, the company has laid out the research and development of high-end electric vehicles, investing more than 10 billion yuan in the past six years, and has nearly 3,000 core technology patents in the fields of chassis, power, body, safety, etc. It has realized lean, flexible, digital, intelligent, customized and ecological production of multiple models.

At present, Sailis automotive products have been exported to more than 70 countries and regions around the world such as South America, Africa, the Middle East, South East Asia, and Europe, and have gradually established more than 1,000 marketing service networks, 3 marketing service centers, and 8 KD assembly plants overseas.

SAIC Hongyan relies on the three core technologies of battery, electronic control and electric drive to build two product matrices of hydrogen energy heavy trucks and pure electric heavy trucks and a one-stop new energy solution of "high performance, high efficiency and zero pollution". At present, the company’s overseas market has expanded from the traditional South East Asia and Africa to South America, Central Asia and the Middle East.

Behind the success of car companies lies the overall international competitiveness of Chongqing’s automotive industry.

The relevant person in charge of the Municipal Economic and Information Commission said that at present, Chongqing has formed a "1 + 10 + 1000" advantageous automobile industry cluster supported by more than ten vehicle enterprises and thousands of supporting enterprises, and the development of the intelligent networked new energy automobile industry is generally at the leading level in the west.

Compared with other international automobile brands, intelligent networked new energy vehicles have become the biggest advantage for Chinese brands and "made in Chongqing" to participate in international competition.

Speed up the layout

Build a world-class

Overseas development is in full swing, but Chongqing’s automakers are level-headed and looking to the farther future.

The relevant person in charge of Changan Automobile said that under the current trade model of Chongqing and even Chinese automobiles, overseas dealers are mainly responsible for brand promotion, and the path of brand internationalization is still unclear. A unified overseas brand value system and operation management system have not been formed, and the global brand power is still weak.

"The industrial chain layout depth of Chongqing Automobile’s’new track ‘is not enough." Qu Yunchao, a market observer, said that for example, the core technology of battery cells is not well mastered, the layout of high-tech barrier components such as power semiconductors is insufficient, and battery raw materials are not involved. There are certain risks in cost control ability and supply chain stability.

In response to the above problems, what solutions does Chongqing’s automobile industry plan?

In April 2023, Changan Automobile released the "All Rivers of the Sea" plan, which caught the attention of industry insiders.

In the future, Changan will focus on accelerating the product and production capacity layout, launching no less than 60 global products by 2030; continue to build smart, low-carbon, design and other brand labels, and strengthen the overseas construction of the dark blue brand and Avita brand.

In addition, Changan plans to establish more than 20 localized marketing organizations in overseas markets by 2030, with the number of overseas outlets exceeding 3,000, and accelerate the layout of five regional markets in Europe, America, the Middle East and Africa, Asia Pacific, and the Commonwealth of Independent States.

With leading car companies at the vanguard, "Made in Chongqing" Automobile is fully committed to exploring overseas markets, deploying overseas production capacity, and building a world-class.

In the future, Sailis Automobile will take advantage of the product advantages of SERES electric vehicles and Dongfeng Scenic passenger cars to establish a marketing company in Europe and a sales and service center in Africa and America. The company will also rely on the Indonesian production base to give full play to the advantages of localized manufacturing and the customs union of ASEAN countries, and radiate South East Asia and surrounding markets with Indonesia as the center, laying a solid foundation for internationalization.

In the future, SAIC Hongyan will be guided by meeting market demand and establishing a global brand, and steadily promote the transformation from single trade to production localization, from traditional energy to "traditional energy + new energy" two-wheel drive transformation, and from localized trade to localized operation.

In fact, many car companies in Chongqing also share a common desire – to leverage overseas markets to optimize their product mix and make their cars more profitable.

"We need to use overseas markets to support the transformation of the’new track ‘." The relevant person in charge of Cyrus Automobile said that at present, the company’s export models have jumped from low-end micro-commercial vehicles to high-end smart electric vehicles, and the export unit price has increased from 5,000 US dollars to a maximum of more than 40,000 US dollars (the retail price of Cyrus 5 end point exported to Europe is more than 60,000 US dollars).

The reporter learned from relevant municipal departments that, under the impetus of the "Belt and Road Initiative" initiative, our city is formulating plans to promote the international development of the "Made in Chongqing" brand, and will promote the exchange of product access policies and mutual recognition of standards and regulations with key overseas countries or regions in the future.

At the same time, Chongqing will also strengthen overseas financial service support, expand financial support services in key export markets, and help international automobile logistics enterprises improve their competitiveness, so that "Chongqing-made" vehicles can gain a firm foothold and make great strides in the joint construction of the country.

Galaxy season is here! You don’t have to go far for a long holiday, you can see the magnificent Galaxy here in Shanghai, with a shooting tutorial

Those who have been to the wilderness, the forest sea, and the isolated island must never forget the glance they took when they looked up at night. A milky white ribbon cut across the boundless darkness, and the stars shone with silver light hundreds of millions of years ago. Every star is a star like the sun, and human beings realize their insignificance, loneliness, and greatness at this moment.

But such sights are often only seen in areas with minimal light pollution. In cities, not to mention the Milky Way, even the brightest star, Sirius, has a hard time passing through artificial light curtains. In May, the northern hemisphere’s Galactic season has arrived, and stargazers are planning to take a long vacation to travel to Xinjiang, Tibet, and Inner Mongolia to see the Milky Way. But you would never have imagined that you can actually see the magnificent Milky Way without running so far, or even leaving Shanghai.

Nanhuizui Sea View Park in the new area of Lingang is such a magical place. At night, looking at the East China Sea from here, you can only hear the waves crashing on the shore, and you can’t see your fingers – such a place with very little light pollution is the perfect place to watch the stars and the Milky Way.

Taken in Nanhuizui Guanhai Park, the Milky Way is visible to the naked eye in the sky. Hu Xingyang, photo

From another angle, look at the sky full of stars. Hu Xingyang, photo

It’s rare to see a star, and some people may be seeing the Milky Way for the first time. Why not take a picture and leave a souvenir?

What, can’t shoot? Don’t panic, the tutorial is here. I will teach you hand in hand, so that you can turn into a master of Hoshino photography, and the galaxy photos taken with your mobile phone can immediately detonate your Moments.

Step 1: Find the Milky Way

The short holiday is 5 days, which is from the ninth to the twelfth day of the lunar calendar. The moon phase is the first quarter moon, and the brightness is higher. The moon is bright and the stars are thin, and when the moon is hanging high, the stars are naturally dim.

However, the moon always sets when it rises. At 2 am, the moon basically falls below the horizon, which no longer affects stargazing and shooting. At this time, the center of the galaxy has risen to a height of 50 ° from the ground, which is suitable for observation and shooting.

The location of the Milky Way can be identified by the naked eye; it can also be located by the astrology APP. Generally speaking, if you look east, you can find it.

Step2: Shooting!

Why did you start shooting? Don’t worry, shooting stars is that simple. Set up the tripod, fix the camera or mobile phone, and then adjust the parameters – exposure time is 20 seconds, aperture F2.8, sensitivity ISO2000, focus is set to manual, pull to infinity, and recycle some more.

If the maximum aperture of your lens is less than 2.8, you can increase the sensitivity accordingly. The stars are in constant motion relative to the ground, so the shutter time cannot be increased, otherwise it will be trailed.

The mobile phone uses professional mode, and the parameters are the same as above. Some mobile phones come with star mode, so you can rest assured to leave it to smart shooting.

Have you learned it? "May Day" holiday, come to Lingang and try it!

Explore the shop Hengchi Experience Center: After seeing the actual car of Hengchi 5, I think Hengda is hopeless

Recently, foreign media reported that Faraday Future delayed the production of its first model due to lack of money. If Xu Jiayin had insisted on investing in Jia Yueting, there might not be two car brands left unfinished today.

Only Hengda believes that there is still a way to survive in its car-making journey.

On July 5th, Hengchi 5 was released. Just 15 days later, Hengchi officially announced that the cumulative order volume has exceeded 37,000. The pre-sale is so bottomless, which makes us more curious about this new car.

Recently, Pinjiao visited the only Hengchi exhibition experience center in Beijing, and for the first time, he had a close encounter with the exhibition car of Hengchi 5. The real car experience made us firmly believe that,3.7The order volume of 10,000 is estimated to be less than a fraction.

The quality of any new brand or model needs to wait for the market to verify. The ideal of the shortest time in Wei Xiaoli took more than a year from the first car to the 30,000th car. However, Hengchi has actually received more than 30,000 orders, and Evergrande’s factory probably does not have this capacity.

At the "720 Hengchi Festival", as the numbers kept beating, the final order number exceeded 37,000. Liu Yongzhuo, president of Hengchi, confidently said in a media interview that the sale of Hengchi has become a foregone conclusion.

Liu Yongzhuo’s confidence seems to be passed down by his teacher, Xu Jiayin, but he does not have the ability to justify himself. The hardware is excellent, the price is sincere, and the competing products are pointed at willBBAThere is no logical self-consistency at all, as if it is still in the fledgling stage of our country’s automobile industry.

What is certain at present is that since the "big order" of 10,000 yuan began on August 1, these orders are still refundable small orders of 1,000 yuan, that is to say, 3.7Thousands of orders may disappear at any time.

The pre-sale order is just bragging, and Faraday Future has already performed it. In February this year, Faraday, which had announced that it had obtained 14,000 orders, was suddenly exposed to "order fraud", and it was later found that the vast majority of 14,000 orders were "free reservations", and only 300 vehicles were reserved for fees. No matter how exaggerated the pre-sale is, it is a fact that there is no money for mass production. I don’t know if Hengchi will continue to copy Faraday Future’s next path.

Of course, since the Hengchi 5 has been unveiled, the product driver also brought a lot of curiosity and went to the Hengchi Exhibition Center to experience the new car of the Hengchi 5.

The Hengchi Exhibition and Experience Center in Beijing is located in Hengda Huafu Commercial Center in Chaoyang District. The commercial center is located near Hengda’s real estate and covers an area of about 80,000 square meters. Although it has been built for nearly three years, the opening time is still delayed. There are very few shops currently settled in, but most of the commercial center is still under construction, which seems to be a bit desolate around.

Pinke entered the store in the name of looking at the car. After scanning the code to enter the store, a staff member immediately came forward to explain the vehicle. There were two Hengchi 5s and two staff members in the store. Since it was a weekday morning, there were no other customers.

At present, the static experience can only be carried out in the store, and the test drive needs to be ordered and waited for a while.

Sitting in the car, there is a good space in the front and rear rows, but the seat feels hard, and it is difficult to be satisfied with the comfort. In terms of the car, after a simple operation experience, the smoothness is still good, but I don’t know why the car is not connected to the Internet, so it cannot carry out a deeper experience.

Regarding the order problem, when Pindrive asked the staff in the store whether they could still catch up with the "10,000 yuan to 20,000 yuan" car purchase activity of the first 10,000 Dading users, the staff said "there are still activities", which made people more confused about the actual number of orders.

However, what was even more surprising was that the car, which had just entered the store, was already "scarred". The connection between the map bag behind the main driver’s seat and the seat had been cracked, and the plastic parts on the side of the seat had also been glued off.

However, on the outside of the vehicle,The taillight trim of another exhibition car also fell off

The car in the store is still like this, and the quality of the Hengchi 5 is unavoidable. If you look at the parameters alone, Hengchi 5 is indeed a cost-effective product. The car is 4725mm long, the wheelbase is 2780mm, and it is equipped with a 72.8kWh lithium iron phosphate battery with a battery life of 602km. In addition, it also comes standard with L2-level driving auxiliary features and some comfort configurations.

Hengchi 5 price 179,000 yuan, if through the scheduled activities, the first ten thousand users of Dading can be cheaper ten thousand yuan, cost-effective is the only car that can be used to lift, such a price, even than the "price butcher" said, the same level of zero running C11 with the lowest cheaper.

Hengchi officially positioned the brand and this product as "luxurious", and it seems that the "cost-effective" price is for "profit". But it has to be said that this "cheap" is not available at present, and the quality of this new car should be left to the market to test for a while.

Walking out of the Hengchi Experience Center, Pinjia deeply felt that the embarrassment of Hengchi today and the arrogance of Hengchi in the past were too sharp.

Xiao Xu (a pseudonym), who lives in Zhengzhou, is the owner of an unfinished Hengda project in Zhengzhou. Fortunately, his first phase of the house was delivered on time last year, and the second phase has been suspended since then. Xiao Xu’s circle of friends can often see Hengda Property’s new Hengchi 5 car. He can’t believe how Evergrande can still have the money to build a car when the house can’t be built anymore. Xiao Xu doesn’t dare to buy it anyway.

Hengda doesn’t even want to hire more specialized car sales, so Hengda Property has to take on the task of selling cars, and feels sorry for the property owner for a minute.

The Hengda showroom we visited this time was also in a vacant commercial building like this. It seems that Hengda has no energy to expand its channels and no resources to compete with real car manufacturers in the mall.

And the product positioning and pre-sale routine of Hengchi 5 when it was launched did not play any new tricks. "30The positioning of "Best within 10,000" has neither momentum nor lack of suspicion of riding on one’s coattails, and even some people suspect that Evergrande’s momentum ability has regressed.

It is also necessary to provide a friendly reminder that 15The right to unconditionally return the car within days is also left by Baowo Play, which was acquired by Lu Zhengyao.

Previously, an insider of Hengchi Automobile had revealed to Pinjiao that only the Hengchi 5 was true of the nine cars that Hengda unveiled at the 2021 Shanghai Auto Show. Hengda, which is keen to build momentum, now only has the Hengchi 5 as a life-saving straw.

However, when we saw the new Hengchi 5, we did not feel the slightest bit of sincerity in Hengda’s car production. If it were as advertised, it would present us with a somewhat tattered exhibition car, not to mention the cockpit and driving experience that we did not dare to offer.

In the listing promotion, Hengchi 5 even said that in order to ensure the safety of funds, the vehicle reservation money is not even credited to the account of Hengchi, but to the account of the notary office. This gesture of trying to restore public trust does not give people the slightest sense of security.

Liu Yongzhuo, president of Hengchi, who recently came out to build momentum, evaluated Hengchi 5. The hardware specifications are very high, and it sells 179,000, which is really competitive. The executive who grew up in the Hengda system has successively managed Hengda Football Club, Hengda Cultural Industry, Hengda Agriculture and Animal Husbandry and other sectors. Now in addition to being the president of Hengchi, he also has an identity, the president of Hengda Vehicle Research Institute.

After a group of high-paid technical executives hired by Evergrande left last year, Liu Yongzhuo, a layman, had to take up this position. Non-automotive-related technical personnel to manage the vehicle research and development project, it is not difficult to imagine the technical content of Hengchi, Hengchi 5 is likely to be connected to the follow-upOTANeither can be achieved.

The listing of Hengchi 5 seems like a lot of hype, but in fact it reflects the lack of funds, the lack of new marketing ideas, whether it can be produced on time, sales problems and worrying product quality, so that we can no longer see any hope that Hengda car manufacturing may survive.

Back then, the "buy buy buy", "big big"The Evergrande at least let us see a barbarian with a lot of money who doesn’t make cars.00Hundreds of millions are worried, but now, we can only say from the bottom of our hearts:

Please let go of this wave of leeks.
