The work of Zhou Xingchi!

During the "golden age" of Hong Kong cinema in the mid-1970s and early 1990s, more than a dozen film crews started work at the same time every day in this small city on the southern coast of China. Pretty boys and beautiful women from Hong Kong’s wireless artist training class came together and set up scenes among the various crews. Film and television companies such as Golden Harvest, Shaw’s and New Art City invested heavily in digging up and cultivating newcomers to compete in the entertainment industry. This also contributed to the miracle that Hong Kong films produced more than 200 films a year in the 1980s.

That golden age of Hong Kong cinema gave birth to countless movie superstars. They may be as good-looking as Chow Yun-fat, Andy Lau, and Tony Leung Chaowei, and their acting skills are first-class, becoming hot A-list actors. Or as daring as Samuel Hung, Jackie Chan, Yuan Biao, and Yuan Hua, who sacrificed their lives to complete eye-catching stunts and become action superstars.

However, those who can write, direct, and act, and are unique in artistic expression, can create a personal style, and even find a way to break out of a school of film, I think Xingye is one of the best.

The nonsensical style of "Zhou’s comedy" he pioneered and his special attention to the subject matter of the little people are enough to secure him the top spot in Chinese comedy, and it is no exaggeration to call it "Asian Jim Carrey".

Today, let’s talk about the most outstanding work of Xing Ye in the 21st century so far – "Kung Fu"

First, the self-cultivation of "little people"

The story of "Kung Fu" still follows the tradition of Xing Ye’s "little person narrative", telling the story of the 1940s Shanghai, when A Xing, a street gangster who has been bullied since childhood, tried to get ahead by pretending to be the "Axe Gang" and extorting in the "Pig Cage City". As a result, he attracted the real "Axe Gang" forces.

The unexpected invasion of the gangster forces disturbed the quiet life in the slum, and also disturbed the four peerless kung fu masters who were entrenched here – the inheritors of the Gorang Bagua Band, the Hong Family’s Iron Wire Fist and the Shaolin 12th Road Tan Leg.

The gangsters were naturally no match for the descendants of the divine arts, but the arrogant Axe Gang boss, Brother Kun, was unwilling to stop, so he used the gang’s power to invite peerless experts to try to level the "Pig Cage City" in one fell swoop. Every attack by Brother Kun would stir up more "masters" hidden in the secular world in this unsightly small pool. Until, Brother Kun used his head to sacrifice the ultimate killing king Huoyun Evil God, and his opponent was the little rascal A Xing who caused this disturbance.

Lord Xing wrote, directed and acted himself, focusing the guide tube on the little character A Xing, making him a witness and key participant in the contest between the "evil forces" and the "pig cage city". Every turn in the battle between the two sides was caused by A Xing’s inadvertent speculation.

The first time was when he saw that he was going to be beaten by the residents of the city, so he had to learn the way the Axe Gang used fireworks to call people and threw a cannon fight. As a result, it just blew up the head of the leader of the Axe Gang passing by the wall. Then the villain complained first and blamed the residents of the city, which caused a conflict between the two forces.

The second turning point was that Ah Xing, with an incomparable desire to get ahead, put down all his courtesy and shame to join the Axe Gang. As a result, the first task he received was to rescue the great devil Fire Cloud Evil God from the mental hospital.

Xing clearly knew that his actions were wrong, but he seemed to have been carried away by the desire to become famous. As a result, with the release of the Fire Cloud Evil God, an uncontrolled force of destruction swept through the entire Axe Gang and the city.

The third turning point was when the charterer and the charterer in the base camp of the Axe Gang faced off against the three masters who were entangled with each other, and A Xing chose to use a wooden stick to beat the Fire Cloud Evil God.

This time, the little gangster Ah Xing finally stood on the side of justice. But this also caused the evil god of fire clouds to go berserk directly, breaking Ah Xing’s meridians with a fist, and his life was hanging by a thread. It was precisely because of his walk through the gate of hell that Ah Xing’s potential as a "martial arts genius" was completely exploded.

It can be said that in the first half of the film, Ah Xing has always been a gangster who makes a living by picking locks and speculating. For fame and fortune, he can join gangs, bully civilians, and even rob a girl who buys candy.

But in the end, he was just a small person, without noble virtue or the ferocity of a big traitor, between good and evil. He did not dare to kill, set fire, or rape. After being bitten by a snake, he had to hide in the traffic light box and silently digest the pain.

But it was after a series of setbacks and tribulations that Ah Xing finally realized how precious the opportunity to "be a good person" was, and how despicable it was to be self-deprecating on the old road of a gangster. Therefore, the moment he completed the good and evil decision, the potential hidden in his body also fully exploded.

Eight kung fu stunts, combining Chinese martial arts

Since the movie is called "Kung Fu", the core element of the story is naturally Chinese martial arts. In the "imagined China" in Jin Yong and Gu Long’s martial arts novels, Chinese martial arts can be said to have a long history and many branches. The kung fu of Shaolin, Wudang, Emei, Beggar Gang, and Tai Chi schools have their own strengths and weaknesses, and together they have painted the world of pleasure, enmity, swords, light and shadows.

On the one hand, Xing Ye’s "Kung Fu" continues the tradition of Hong Kong martial arts novels, and on the other hand, it inherits the mantle of Hong Kong martial arts films and kung fu films. The eight kung fu that appear in it can be said to be both a reinterpretation of traditional Chinese kung fu and a tribute to Hong Kong classic kung fu films. Let’s take a look at it together:

(1) The Tathagata Palm

The most invincible kung fu in the film "Tathagata’s Palm" is actually a fiction invented by Hong Kong filmmakers. It first appeared in the Hong Kong film "Tathagata’s Palm" in the last century, and was portrayed as the Buddha created for all living beings. There are ten styles.

At the end of the film, Ah Xing used the ninth form of "Ten Thousand Buddha Dynasty". Later, it was continuously interpreted by people, and the Tathagata Divine Palm became a kind of divine power that interacted with the "Heavenly Remnant Foot".

(2) Toad Gong

"Toad Technique" was a must-kill skill of the Fire Cloud Evil God. He once used this skill to put Ah Xing at a disadvantage.

The toad skill comes from Jin Yong’s martial arts novel. It is the original stunt of Western Poison Ouyang Feng, and later passed on to his righteous son Yang Guo.

Its characteristic is that it is like a toad preying on insects, waiting for an opportunity to move, using static braking, and striking after. When the enemy attacks, it pounces suddenly, concentrating all its internal force on one point and bursting out, killing it in one blow.

(3) (4) Shaolin Nanquan North Leg – "Hongquan" and "Tan Leg"

The tailors and laborers who live in seclusion in the Kowloon walled city in the film are the descendants of Hong Quan and Tan Ju respectively. Hong Quan was pioneered by Hong Xiguan, a Cantonese from the Qing Dynasty. When he was a teenager, he studied under the Shaolin sect and integrated the kung fu of the North and South Shaolin with his extremely high understanding. He created a school of "Hong Quan" that combines internal and external cultivation, uses both fists and feet, and combines strength and softness.

The person who plays the tailor in the film is Zhao Zhiling, the apprentice of Huang Feihong, and the iron wire boxing he practices is also one of the five battles of Hongquan.

There are many theories about the origin of "Tan leg", including Shaolin Temple in Songshan, Henan, Longtan Temple in Shandong, and many other theories. Later, the Jingwu Association of Huo Yuanjia in Tianjin also taught this kind of kung fu. There is a proverb that goes "If you practice boxing without training your legs, you are like a daredevil". The Tan leg style, with sharp movements, changeable moves, and quick attack and defense, can complement the boxing technique well.

(5) Goro gossip stick

The origin of this stick technique is hidden in the name. The so-called "Goro" refers to Yang Goro, who fought against the Khitan people in the Southern Song Dynasty. When he was defeated in the battle with his father at the Golden Beach, he disguised himself as a monk.

Later, he really went to Mount Wutai to cut his hair and become a monk, and changed the Yang family’s marksmanship to a stick technique, creating the "Gorang Bagua Stick". The actor who plays the boss Yang in the film is Dong Zhiping, a Peking Opera martial artist, whose gun and stick skills are first-class.

(6) Tai Chi

This can be said to be the most well-known kung fu in the film. In the film, the charterer plays "Chen’s Tai Chi" originating from Chenjiagou, Henan. With Taoist Tai Chi and Yin and Yang as the mental method, he pays attention to both internal and external cultivation, combining rigidity and softness, and overcoming rigidity with softness.

Although the chartered public can use a set of superb tai chi to play the six-fingered piano demon in the palm of his hand, he is a "rake ear" and has to swallow his anger and bear the humiliation in the face of his wife’s domestic violence.

(7) The Lion’s Roar

The renter’s Lion’s Roar skill, which is comparable to ultrasonic weapons in the film, is one of Shaolin’s seventy-two stunts. When the power is performed, the qi is first sank in the dantian, and then it spreads for thousands of miles, which can be transmitted for miles. Hearing it, the heart is frightened and the back is cold. As Du Fu said in his poem, "When I suddenly hear the roar of a lion in Hedong, I am at a loss when the cane falls on my hand." Presumably, only a strong and domineering renter can control it freely.

(8) Three-hole Qin Demon – Shaolin Dragon Claw Hand

In the film, the two of the three-hole piano demons stroke a guqin together, the sound of the piano turns into the light of the sword and the shadow of the sword, the lights turn off the grass wherever they go, and the killing is invisible. This kung fu can be regarded as the original of Xingye, which is composed of the six-style fingerings of the guzheng and the Shaolin dragon claws.

Of course, Xing Ye was also inspired by the "Fuqin Style" and "Drum Style" in Jin Yong’s novels, which Zhang Wuji once used in the Shaolin Dragon Gripper.

Three or ten years of preparation only to fulfill the "Kung Fu Dream"

In fact, Xing Ye had wanted to put "Kung Fu" on the stage as early as 2005. One of his original intentions when he set up his own color star company to film "Journey to the West" was to use the money he earned to shoot his dream work – "Kung Fu".

However, the nonsensical style of "Journey to the West" exceeded the upper limit of the audience’s understanding at that time, encountering an unprecedented box office waterloo, which directly led to the bankruptcy of the color star company and the plan to shoot "Kung Fu" was stranded indefinitely.

From "Journey to the West" in 2005 to "Kung Fu" in 2004, Xing Ye also filmed another classic work, "The King of Comedy" in 1999. It can be said that these three works, separated by five years from each other, together form the "Iron Triangle" of Zhou’s comedy across the centuries at a very high level.

Looking back now, in fact, the box office failure of "Journey to the West" at that time was not necessarily a bad thing. It was with the precipitation and tempering of the next ten years that Xingye was able to polish the script and works to such an exquisite level.

Moreover, based on the special effects level of the 1990s to shoot kung fu, the final scene of A Xing’s group fighting the Axe Gang and the Tathagata’s palm defeating the Fire Cloud Evil God would definitely be very simple, difficult to achieve the desired effect, and unable to perfectly interpret Xing Ye’s understanding of kung fu.

iPhone 16 series forward: all sizes have changed, and the upgrade range is large

As we all know, there have been many revelations about the iPhone 16 series long before the release of the iPhone 15 series. In line with the principle of "bold assumptions, careful verification", we will still learn about predictions or revelations about new models to see what new things Apple may do next year.

Recently, Haitong International Securities analyst Jeff Pu revealed some details about the iPhone 16 Pro. He introduced,The device will feature a faster 5G modem, Wi-Fi 7, and a new ultra-wide-angle lens at the rear.

iPhone 16 series forward: all sizes have changed, and the upgrade range is large

In a note to investors, Jeff Pu based his predictions for the iPhone 16 series on his sources in Apple’s supply chain.

He revealed that the size of the new iPhone will be 0.2 inches larger than the current 6.1 inches and 6.7 inches, that is, the standard version iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro will increase to 6.3 inches, and the larger iPhone 16 Plus and Pro Max models will become 6.9 inches – In contrast, Huawei Mate 60 Pro is 6.82 inches in size.

Coincidentally, Tianfeng International industry analyst Guo Mingxuan and DSCC CEO Ross Young have reported that iPhone 16 series will be larger in size.

And thanks to the larger fuselage size,Apple will be able to carry the same quadruple prism periscope head as the iPhone 15 Pro Max on the relatively small iPhone 16 Pro model, and will finally support 5x optical zoom.

Jeff Pu emphasized that both the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max will feature 12 million-pixel quadrilateral prism periscope heads for better zoom.

iPhone 16 series forward: all sizes have changed, and the upgrade range is large

But in this way, the more widely applicable triple telephoto seems to be gone. If Apple still maintains the 3-lens module, the lack of 3x optical telephoto becomes a loss.

Jeff Pu said in the report that Apple plans to upgrade the super wide-angle lens for the Pro series models, and this lens has not been moved since iPhone 13 Pro.

The ultra-wide-angle lens on the iPhone 16 Pro series will use 48 million pixel sensor, a huge leap over the current 12 million pixels. Better ultra-wide-angle quality can also improve the utilization rate of ultra-wide angle to some extent.

iPhone 16 series forward: all sizes have changed, and the upgrade range is large

Apple’s A-series chips have changed this year, and the appearance of the A17 Pro has changed the next naming rules. Not surprisingly, the iPhone 16 Pro will be equipped with a new A18 Pro chip, built on the same 3nm process as the A17 Pro. The memory is still estimated to be 8GB.

It is worth noting that iPhone 16 Pro changes in terms of connectivity, whether it is Wi-Fi or 5G, iPhone 16 Pro will be upgraded. Jeff Pu speculates that the new iPhone will be equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon X75 modem, which can achieve 5G download speeds of up to 7.5 Gbps.

While the iPhone 15 Pro was the first to introduce support for WiFi 6E, next year’s iPhone Pro will likely feature WiFi 7. The latest Wi-Fi standard has speeds of up to 46 Gbps, four times that of WiFi 6.

But support is support. If you want to enjoy the speed of WiFi 7, you also need the corresponding network speed and router, and WiFi 6 routers are not yet popular… I can only say that in the future, it is no problem to use the mobile phone for two more years.

iPhone 16 series forward: all sizes have changed, and the upgrade range is large

Jeff Pu also predicted the standard iPhone 16. He said that the iPhone 16 will still use a dual-camera module, and the ultra-wide-angle lens will retain 12 million pixel sensor, but will not support macro function.

iPhone 16 standard model should be the A17 didn’t run, after all, to pull the gap with the A17 Pro. The good news is that the memory is 8GB, but the 5G modem will not be upgraded. In terms of connectivity, the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are also finer – they will support WiFi 6E, not WiFi 7.

The above information is an early reference, Apple is expected to launch iPhone 16 series in September next year, the future we will continue to pay attention to Apple and the new iPhone.

Apple launches a new iPhone every year, and we haven’t seen a refreshing update on the iPhone in years – oh, the last one was called "Dynamic Island". Many users and fans of competing products expressed dissatisfaction and ridicule at these small fixes.

Apple does not tweak new iPhone every year, but it does upgrade. In a recent interview with Brut., Apple CEO Tim Cook answered the question "Is it necessary to launch a new iPhone every year?"

"I think it’s a great thing to have a iPhone every year for people who want it," he said. Apple promotes the practice of users trading in old phones for new ones. So if the phone still works, Apple resells it (recycles it).

If it doesn’t work, Apple has a way to disassemble it and recycle the material to make new iPhone. This is also in line with Apple’s environmental values, although the idea of releasing iPhone annually seems to contradict environmental sensitivity.

iPhone 16 series forward: all sizes have changed, and the upgrade range is large

But Cook believes that Apple is committed to maximizing the value of older iPhone. iPhone 13 Pro series is still the most worth buying iPhone model in the past 5 years, if iPhone 16 Pro series still has no upgrades, then I may still retain that view.

New richest man Xu Jiayin

Text/Wang Fangjie

With a swipe of the camera, Xu Jiayin appeared on the CCTV news screen, which was a report on the 2017 BRICS Business Forum. Xu Jiayin, wearing a red tie, sat in the first row behind the dignitaries, directly behind the top government. Obviously, this is not a position that ordinary entrepreneurs can get. In addition to the chairperson of the board of directors of China Evergrande, Xu Jiayin is also a member of the Standing Committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference.

Mr. Xu’s political status has kept him very busy. On his public itinerary, he attended a meeting of the Standing Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference in Beijing before going to Xiamen for the BRICS meeting. Before that, he attended a "symposium on private enterprises studying and implementing the spirit of the National Financial Work Conference" held by the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce. Only, he did not attend the half-year performance report of China Evergrande (03333.HK).

Originally, Xu Jiayin could have received a lot of congratulations at the half-year performance meeting. In addition to China Evergrande’s best performance in history, he himself surpassed Wang Jianlin to become the richest man in China’s real estate in July this year. As China Evergrande’s share price rises further, according to the latest data from Forbes, Xu Jiayin is the new richest man in China at a price of 39.10 billion US dollars, slightly higher than the second-place Pony Ma and the third-place Jack Ma.

It’s not that Xu Jiayin has never been the richest man. As early as 2009, the day China Evergrande went public, his net worth reached the top of China. But year after year, Evergrande has been playing the "game" of high debt and high leverage, with capital markets ranging from novelty to boredom to worry, and institutions like Citron shorting. According to the calculation of Xia Haijun, the president of China Evergrande, China Evergrande’s current price-to-earnings ratio is only 4-5 times, about half that of mainland real estate companies. "Evergrande’s stock is still far from reaching the right position," Xia Haijun said.

Since the beginning of this year, China Evergrande has started to deleverage significantly, and at the same time vigorously promoted Evergrande Real Estate’s backdoor listing in class A shares. Under the stimulus of multiple positive factors, the capital markets have expressed their support with practical actions. The company opened at HK $5.04 on January 3, 2017 and closed at HK $28.15 at noon on September 15. Xu Jiayin also once again topped the list of China’s richest people.

However, for a mature entrepreneur, the status of the richest person is no longer of great significance, just like the scale of a leading company. Xu Jiayin and Evergrande’s management need to continue to face the problem of how to keep a giant ship within a safe boundary.

A keen sense of smell

In a fashionable phrase, Xu Jiayin lacks freestyle. In the real estate circle, Sun Hongbin wears T-shirts and sneakers, and usually scolds the Three Character Classic when he is in a hurry. He is an "upright BOY"; Wang Jianlin roars at the company’s annual meeting that he has nothing like a "rock old cannon"; although Wang Shi is full of bourgeois delicacy, he will also be angry and become a beauty. Whether the reporter is in close contact or the public can feel the vividness of these characters through the computer screen. But Xu Jiayin is serious and serious. He is like a "veteran cadre" who is surrounded. You look at him, he looks at you, and they are separated by several layers.

But employees at China Evergrande are used to "the boss is such an old-fashioned person." They told reporters that the billionaire had not had access to a smartphone until recent years. The owner of a media advertising agency brought up a story in which Evergrande people approached them years ago to include a single page on Sina Finance’s Hong Kong stock channel, because the boss only used Sina Finance to watch stocks.

Xu Jiayin, a veteran cadre, is different from Wang Shi – "he will not get involved in politics in this life and the next", and different from Wang Jianlin – "close to the government and away from politics". He is very close to politics and well integrated. This of course attracted criticism from short-selling institutions for him. Citron once pointed out that it was very close to the **, but the accusation was ultimately unfounded. The other side of the coin is Xu’s keen grasp of policy. Just a little attention can be found that ** Evergrande’s strategy is almost in sync with the macroeconomic development strategy. The state expands the scale of Evergrande, and the state shrinks the scale of Evergrande.

At this performance meeting, China Evergrande announced a major strategic transformation, from the past scale priority to efficiency priority. To this end, the company adjusted the previous "three highs and one low" development model to "three lows and one high". The so-called "three highs and one low" means high debt, high leverage, high turnover and low cost, while "three lows and one high" means low debt, low leverage, low cost and high turnover. In this regard, Xia Haijun did not shy away: "China Evergrande’s measures are consistent with the country’s policy orientation of reducing debt and deleveraging."

Xu Jiayin was not among the speakers at the "Symposium on Private Enterprises Learning and Implementing the Spirit of the National Financial Work Conference" on August 23. Xu Lejiang, executive vice chairperson of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, who presided over the symposium, named Xu Jiayin to talk about the experience of studying the National Financial Work Conference. Xu Jiayin said that from 2014 to 2016, Evergrande’s income was 130 billion yuan, 200 billion yuan and 370 billion yuan respectively, and this year it is expected to reach 500 billion yuan. Such rapid growth, no matter which enterprise, is basically a "three highs and one low" development model; now after the Central Financial Work Conference, enterprises must change to the "three lows and one high" model. Only in this way can they achieve long-term stable and healthy development of enterprises. Xu Lejiang joked in the exchange that Evergrande’s past development model should actually add a "high risk".

The guidance from the top is very direct, how can Xu Jiayin not hear the strings and know the elegance? In fact, with his keen sense of policy, there is no need for such a direct reminder at all. In the early years, under the background of policy encouragement to go global, many real estate companies adopted aggressive overseas expansion strategies. Now those overseas real estate projects that rely on domestic investors have become a problem for the company’s future, but China Evergrande has not gone abroad. Evergrande made it clear to reporters that Evergrande has no plans to invest overseas. "In the past 21 years, Evergrande has insisted on investing only in China, and has successfully realized the growth of the company in the dividend of China’s rapid economic development. We believe that this dividend is still very large, and Evergrande can continue to make great progress in it."

Of course, in addition to external factors, Evergrande’s slowdown has its own internal logic.

China Evergrande was founded in 1996 as a project that no one else wanted. That year, Vanke’s operating income exceeded 1 billion yuan, and R & F Real Estate’s sales revenue was about 60 million yuan. In the 20 years leading up to 2016, Evergrande has been playing the role of a chaser, from project companies to local companies, then to national companies, and finally became the world’s largest real estate company last year. Xia Haijun believes that to catch up with others, it must scale up. How can a small company overcome the disadvantage of insufficient capital base and achieve leap growth in scale? There is only one way – borrow more money. The money was deposited on the land, and as the value of the land far exceeded the financing cost, Evergrande became the "diamond in the crown".

But Xia Haijun knew that the development model of high debt was unsustainable. After all, the golden age of Chinese real estate had passed, and a large number of small and medium-sized real estate enterprises had disappeared, which showed that the simple and crude way of making money in the past was no longer feasible. The cost of land was getting higher and higher, and if the financing cost continued to rise, enterprises could only work for the government and banks.

China Hengda decided in the next three years, the scale of land reserves negative growth of 5% to 10% per year, to 50 million square meters per year of floor area calculation, about 10 million per year will reduce the land reserves, buy less land debt will decline, profits will be released.

 

This year, China Evergrande handed in the best report card since its listing. Its gross profit and net profit increased by about 200%. Due to the repayment of perpetual bonds, the net profit attributable to the company’s shareholders increased more than 8 times to 18.83 billion yuan. After the results were announced, the research reports of various brokerages concluded that it was "recommended to buy". "Shareholders don’t care how big we are, they only care about how much dividends we pay." Xia Haijun told the truth.

Slow down

Judging from the contract sales in the first half of this year, Evergrande is no longer the country’s leader, although it only took this position last year. In the first six months of this year, Evergrande achieved contract sales of 2440.9 billion yuan, slightly inferior to Country Garden’s 2889.1 billion yuan. "We have been the boss, and it is pointless to focus on this goal after this." Xia Haijun said, but he changed the topic and said: "It is useless to put other people’s rights and interests on your own side." This sentence smells of gunpowder. In the first half of 2017, according to the statistics of equity sales, China Evergrande ranked first in the country’s real estate enterprises, reaching 2291.6 billion yuan, surpassing Country Garden.

"Evergrande will no longer emphasize contract sales first, equity sales first, and profit first." Xia Haijun stressed that in response to this strategic adjustment, Xia said that China Evergrande’s consistent low-cost and high-turnover model will not change. "Real estate is bread, we are chefs, land is flour, and Evergrande took the cheapest flour a few years ago." Xia Haijun is quite proud of this. As China’s largest "landlord", China Evergrande currently has 276 million square meters of land reserves. The original value of this land is only 457.60 billion yuan, and the average floor price is 1,658 yuan/square meter. Of this land, 72.6% is located in first- and second-tier cities, and 27.4% is located in third-tier cities. It is well known that since the beginning of last year, China’s real estate market has started a new round of upward cycle, and the price of Evergrande projects has also risen along with the market. According to Xia’s introduction, the average price of Evergrande projects has risen from 8,800 yuan/square meter last year to more than 10,000 yuan/square meter. "The extra 1,200 yuan/square meter is profit," Xia Haijun said.

Xu Jiayin is also a professor of management at his alma mater, Wuhan University of Science and Technology. Many people think this is a false name. After all, Professor Xu studied metallurgy and has never talked about his management methods in public. But when you look closely at this company, you will find that it does have some unique management experience. For example, due to the long management radius of national real estate enterprises, many companies choose to fully delegate power to regional companies. However, China Evergrande adopts a tight group management model. The group directly controls all aspects of the project, planning and design, material supply, bidding, budget and final accounts, project management, quality management, sales, and property delivery. The role of regional companies is only implementation. Of course, this model is difficult to implement. This year, Evergrande Group needs to control and develop more than 8,000 buildings with more than 20 floors at the same time. But this has given birth to Evergrande’s standardized operation. In Xia Haijun’s opinion, no real estate company can surpass Evergrande in this regard. It has only three product lines, with a 5% share of high-end series – Evergrande Washington, a 70% share of rigid demand product series – Evergrande Oasis, Evergrande Yayuan, etc., and a 25% share of tourist real estate series – Evergrande Jinbi World. These products are distributed in 223 cities across the country, but each real estate with the same name looks almost identical.

Evergrande also has a unique management model, which Xu Jiayin regards as a magic weapon for maintaining long-term high growth – target plan management. "In management, usually target management and plan management are two separate chapters, Evergrande combines the two, and Evergrande’s plans are all targeted," Xu Jiayin said in an internal speech at the beginning of this year.

In Hengda Group, there is a unique department in the real estate industry – the management and supervision center. At first, there were only 10 people in this department, but now there are nearly 1,000 people, and the regional companies also have comprehensive planning departments. The two departments have formed a multi-level project plan management system, which is mainly responsible for maintaining the high-speed turnover of project development. According to Hengda, the company has detailed control over the project plan to every week, ensuring that the opening sales are opened within half a year after the land is acquired. Unless there is a serious force majeure, the opening time is a dead order.

Evergrande is about to change the development model of high leverage and high debt. Before this year, few people could say how much money Evergrande had borrowed because of its high perpetual debt. According to the 2016 annual report, the net profit attributable to the holders of perpetual debt exceeded that attributed to the shareholders of the company. It was not until early July, when Evergrande announced that it had redeemed all perpetual bonds in June, that people learned that the size of this "hidden debt" was 112.90 billion yuan, and its disappearance caused China Evergrande’s full-scale net debt ratio (including perpetual bonds) to be sharply halved.

It is undeniable that China Evergrande is still a highly leveraged company, which may even be considered abnormally high by Xia Haijun himself. Its net debt ratio is 240%. Xia Haijun said that the net debt ratio will be reduced to 140% in one year, 100% in two years, and 70% in three years. After that, China Evergrande will maintain such a "normal company" debt ratio.

The Road Ahead

In fact, Evergrande’s net profit in the first half of the year could have been even higher. The company sold its stake in Vanke to Shenzhen Metro at a very low price, losing 7 billion yuan. Of course, as Xu Jiayin said, "all things are pleasant things to do". As we all know, Evergrande Real Estate Group is advancing the plan of backdoor Shenshenfang, and the group headquarters has also been relocated to Shenzhen. Xia Haijun revealed that the appraisal agency is revaluing Evergrande Real Estate’s land assets, and the price after the revaluation of the assets will determine the valuation of Evergrande Real Estate when it goes public. The relevant work is going very smoothly, and the company will soon welcome the third round of strategic investors. The scale of this round of financing is between 30 billion and 50 billion yuan. After the financing is completed, Hengda Real Estate will formally submit a statement to the Securities Supervision Commission.

Of course, there are many people who want to participate in the business of China’s largest landowner, and Evergrande Real Estate has the active option. Its shareholder list is shining, including CITIC, Zhongrong, CEFC, Shenzhen Industry Group, Shandong Expressway, Shenzhen Guangtian, etc. All are powerful central enterprises, state-owned enterprises, large Financial Institution Groups and strategic partners.

It is worth noting that the backdoor listing of class A shares is Evergrande Real Estate Group, while China Evergrande already owns four major sectors: real estate, finance, tourism and health. In recent years, China Evergrande has been trying to diversify. It has successively "fought" FMCG and finance, but the FMCG business was eventually divested, and the financial business was affected by policy changes. Now, tourism, which is in line with the direction of expanding domestic demand and upgrading consumption, is Evergrande’s key direction.

In 2016, the "Analysis Report on the Development Model and Investment Strategic Planning of China’s Theme Park Industry" released by the Prospective Industry Research Institute pointed out that 70% of domestic theme parks are in a state of loss, 20% are flat, and only 10% are profitable. About 150 billion yuan of funds are tied up in theme park investment. This situation can also be seen in the transaction between Wanda and Sunac. According to the original transaction structure, Wanda plans to sell the Wanda City project according to the registered capital base price, so that the average price of the saleable area of the project is only more than 1,000 yuan/square meter. Such a valuation method inevitably makes people feel that those theme parks that need to be held for a long time are a "big pit".

But Evergrande is also pushing ahead with plans for theme parks, known as Evergrande Children’s World, and suddenly there are 15. In the first quarter, Evergrande Travel Group inspected 28 theme parks around the world and finally selected 33 game projects, which will be 1.5 times the size of Disney.

Evergrande Children’s World will be the only fully indoor theme park in the world, which seems magical. Evergrande may need to build a very large dome, and people will probably fall down the rabbit hole like Alice through the entrance. But these theme parks will consume a huge investment. The investment of Shanghai Disneyland without a roof is 5.50 billion US dollars. China Evergrande has not disclosed the commercial estimates of the theme park project, but Xu Jiayin obviously values Children’s World very much. In January this year, he personally participated in the project planning seminar. Maybe the man with nearly 1.50 trillion assets just wants to create some happiness.

Rich rights and interests, delayed delivery and compensation, ask the new M7 to break 70,000 units in 45 days

   After a wave of Wang fried, "far ahead" has begun to appear "interlaced" (interlaced like mountains, no) phenomenon. Now, Huawei’s wave of "breaking the sky" has been used in the new M7 Dading gameplay: in early October, Huawei announced the new M7 worth 30,000 yuan Dading rights and interests, and soon made a commitment to the market to delay the delivery of subsidies of 200 yuan/day. On the basis of the order surge, the drainage of "welfare on the top is guaranteed" was formed again. The market continued to be hot, and the cumulative Dading has exceeded 70,000 units in the 45 days of listing! Triggered netizens to ridicule, Huawei just issued "benefits", regardless of their own pressure gameplay, giving the marketing market another lesson.

  Rights and security "together" Huawei is playing heartbeat?

  For a long time, the official listing of new cars will focus on "welfare" promotions, in order to win good market sales. Huawei has found a new way to stand on the "consumer side" and let the rights and protection of the new M7 go together!

  In terms of "welfare", Huawei’s new M7 rights and interests: (Time: 10.8-10)

  ① Dading enjoys 5,000 yuan to deduct 8,000 yuan, and the balance is reduced or exempted;

  ② Give away 12,000 yuan worth of inner and outer decoration matching gold;

  ③ Enjoy a matching right worth 15,000 yuan (as described below);

  Max Smart Driving Edition users can deduct the optional ADS2.0 urban pilot NCA function in equal amounts;

  Plus rear drive version users can equally choose a technology comfort package worth 15,000 yuan;

  Users of all models can also choose a combination of rights and interests worth 15,000 yuan (21-inch wheels worth 10,000 yuan and original rear-installed boutiques 3 choose 1)

  Shortly after the release of the 30,000 yuan rights and interests, the care plan for consumers to "back the bottom" was immediately released: Wenjiexin M7 users who completed the big payment before November 30, 2023 (inclusive), the order status on the AITO App from the date of "the delivery plan has been confirmed" to the date of "the vehicle has arrived at the store", if the corresponding waiting period in the table below is exceeded, the cash subsidy for car pickup will be obtained according to the number of days (the date the vehicle has arrived at the store – the date the delivery plan has been confirmed – the waiting period). The overdue subsidy standard is 200 yuan/day, up to 10,000 yuan.

13

 

  Two policies have come out one after another, allowing consumers to call "fun", creating a "Mate7 moment" in which the new M7 is set to break the 70,000 in 45 days. Even Yu Chengdong, executive director of Huawei, CEO of end point BG, and chairperson of smart car solutions BU, has to go to the factory to supervise production and quality control. He also personally made a commitment to the market: currently, the Sailis smart factory is working overtime, the entire supply chain has invested more than 1 billion new funds, increased more than 20,000 people, and the new production shifts are 22 hours a day, going all out to ensure delivery! Directly let consumers praise "this wave, stable"!

  Not only is it smart and safe, but the space is also beyond your imagination

  After 25 days on the market, 50,000 orders will be broken, 60,000 orders will be broken in a month, and 70,000 orders will be broken in 45 days. Naturally, this splash of orders cannot be achieved solely by "welfare" and "rights and interests". People are increasingly discovering that the new M7 backed by Huawei is not only full of sincerity, but also extraordinary in the fields of intelligence and security. Even regular items such as space and interiors are impressive.

15

 

  The length, width and height of the five seats of the new M7 are 5020 × 1945 × 1760mm respectively. Huawei creatively uses the "room acquisition rate" to tell the market that the body size is not equal to the large space, and the effective interior space is the point that needs to be paid attention to. The five seats of the new M7 have the best effective interior space in the same class, and the "room acquisition rate" of 66.3% leads the same class. The length of the car is 3338mm, which is better than the excellent ideal L7 and BMW X5L in the same class. Each position is very spacious. The trunk depth is 1100mm, and the standard volume can reach 686L, which can easily accommodate 12 20-inch boarding boxes. After the second row of seats is reclined and connected to the trunk, the maximum depth is expanded to 2051mm, which can form a loading space of 1619L, easily accommodate 30 20-inch suitcases, and with the 52L storage compartment of the trunk, the ultimate space efficiency meets the loading needs of family cars. At the same time, the new M7 enjoys a more flexible six-seat layout, providing consumers with more car purchase options.

16

 

  In terms of seats, the new M7 focuses on family travel scenarios and comprehensively optimizes the driving experience. The five seats are standard with new "marshmallow" seats, 10 layers of comfortable stacked design, and the total thickness of foam is 100mm; the standard four seats are equipped with ventilation, heating and massage functions, each seat is as comfortable as first class. Through Xiaoyi smart assistant, the double-row nap function of the main and co-pilot can be activated by voice. Enjoy six seats with new zero-gravity seats, allowing users to relieve fatigue while riding, as if they were in a space capsule, bringing ultimate comfort and relaxation experience.

17

 

  Backed by Huawei, I thought that the product power of the new M7 in the world was far ahead, but after it went on the market, I found that the original Dading gameplay was also unparalleled. In fact, apart from the surface look of the kernel, these "unattainable" all stem from Huawei’s always standing at the starting point of the user, resulting in the popular fried chicken in the automotive circle and the new M7 in the world. At present, all rights and interests are in place, and the opportunity must not be missed. If you are interested in the new M7 in the world, speed up and rush!

Who will compensate for the traffic accident caused by the driver? Let me tell you the real case!

  CCTV NewsIt is the consensus of many car owners to find a surrogate driver after drinking and socializing, but if the surrogate driver is fully responsible for the traffic accident, should the insurance company insured by the owner unconditionally settle the claim? Recently, the Shanghai No. 1 Intermediate People’s Court (hereinafter referred to as the Shanghai No. 1 Intermediate Court) heard a case of subrogation by an insurance company caused by "Internet + surrogate driving". The court ruled that the surrogate driving company should be liable to the insurance company according to law.

  At 21:33 on October 22, 2014, Mr. Zhou contacted a car service company to provide chauffeur services. At 21:45, the chauffeur Tang arrived at Mr. Zhou’s location. Due to Mr. Zhou’s drinking, his friend Cai signed a "entrusted chauffeur service agreement" (hereinafter referred to as the "agreement") with a car service company. The signature of the "agreement" was stamped with the seal of a car service company.

  At 21:50, Tang had a traffic accident while driving Mr. Zhou’s vehicle, causing damage to the three vehicles. The traffic police department determined that Tang was fully responsible for the accident. Afterwards, the insurance company that insured Mr. Zhou’s car paid Mr. Zhou 53,300 yuan for the claim, and then obtained the transfer of rights issued by Mr. Zhou, and sued a car service company in court.

  The insurance company believes that a car service company, as the party providing the driving service, should ensure the safety of the vehicle. Now the company is responsible for the accident and should bear the liability of 53,300 yuan.

  The court of first instance ruled in favor of all the claims of the insurance company. A car service company refused to accept it and appealed to the Shanghai No. 1 Intermediate Court, requesting that the original judgment be revoked and the original lawsuit request of the insurance company be rejected. An auto service company appealed that it was only a driver information service platform, an intermediary who provided driver service information to drivers and customers and facilitated the signing of the Agreement between the two parties, and was not a party to the Agreement. The driver-on-behalf relationship occurred between Mr. Zhou and Tang. Even if compensation is required, it should be Tang’s compensation.

  A car service company also proposed that the "Agreement" has stipulated relevant exemption clauses. For example, Article 12 stipulates that the client should first use vehicle insurance to settle claims. The company only compensates for "the part that falls within the scope of insurance liability but fails to pay", "the increase in insurance premiums in the following year" and "traffic compensation". Article 9 "Traffic accidents caused by non-personnel operations" are not responsible. When the customer logs in to the company platform to register, the company has informed the above exemption content, and the company’s website has also been publicized. When Mr. Zhou placed an order on the same day, the company also sent the relevant terms to Mr. Zhou via SMS. Therefore, the company has fully informed the exemption clause, and the exemption clause is legal and valid, and the company should be exempted accordingly.

  After the trial, the Shanghai First Intermediate Court held that it was not improper for the insurance company to assert the right of subrogation against an automobile service company based on the contractual relationship between an automobile service company and Mr. Zhou, and the exemption clause was not legally effective because it failed to provide a prompt explanation. An automobile service company should be liable for the losses caused by the traffic accident. Finally, 2nd-round Moderation rejected the appeal and upheld the original judgment.

  The Shanghai No. 1 Intermediate Court held that an automobile service company affixed the official seal to the "entrusted party" of the Agreement, and Mr. Zhou’s friend Cai signed it at the "customer confirmation". An automobile service company also recognized that Mr. Zhou sent the information that needs to be driven to the company. According to the agreement in the Agreement that "the agreement signed by the accompanying person shall be regarded as signed by the client himself", Mr. Zhou and an automobile service company reached an agreement on the Agreement. The Agreement has come into effect, and the two parties have established a trust contract relationship. An automobile service company is a party to the Agreement. It is not improper for an insurance company to claim the right of subrogation from an automobile service company based on the contractual relationship between an automobile service company and Mr. Zhou. In addition, an automobile service company provides paid driving services, and the designated driver is fully responsible for traffic accidents during the driving process. Therefore, the company is at fault in the performance of the contract and should compensate the client, Mr. Zhou, for his losses.

  The "Agreement" is a format contract provided by the company, and Article 12 of it is a limitation of one’s own liability. The "Agreement" does not take black or bold methods to draw the attention of the client. The company claims to prompt customers through notifications during website registration and sending text messages, but does not provide evidence to prove it. Therefore, this clause has no legal effect because it fails to fulfill the obligation to prompt and explain. In addition, since the driver Tang is fully responsible for the traffic accident, this case does not fall under Article 9 of the "Agreement". "Therefore, an automobile service company shall be liable for the losses caused by the traffic accident. (CCTV reporter, Li Wenjie)

"Wandering Earth" roadshow Zhengzhou Station, Wu Mengda exposed himself to oxygen inhalation between filming


1905 movie network news On December 26, the "Adventure Departure, Stubbornness to the End" roadshow came to Zhengzhou, and walked into the two campuses of North China University of Water Resources and Hydropower and Zheng Dashengda School of Economics and Trade Management to have a close exchange with thousands of students. It is reported that on the day of the event, many students queued outside the door early, ready to see the main creator’s style. The whole event was full of enthusiasm and extraordinary atmosphere. Wu Mengda, Zhao Jinmai, and Mike Sui, the stars of "Wandering Earth", appeared on stage, setting off the climax of the entire event. The main creators revealed the story behind the shooting of the film on the spot, and also participated in the interaction of the topic of "me and my stubbornness" and shared their own short stories about stubbornness. The movie "Wandering Earth" will meet with audiences across the country on

 

The roadshow scene was full of surprises, and the main creator arrived to review the shooting process


After the start of the event, two trailers and two features of "The Wandering Earth" were screened for the students at the scene first. At the same time, a positive clip of "The Wandering Earth" that has never been exposed was also shown up the ante. Although the clip is still in the confidential stage, judging from the exclamations of the students at the scene, this clip is "not simple"! As the pictures were broadcast one by one, the scene broke out into warm applause, and many students said they couldn’t wait to watch the positive film!

After the screening, "The Wandering Earth" stars Wu Mengda, Zhao Jinmai, and Mike Sui officially took the stage. Mike Sui said hello in pure Henan dialect and immediately got closer to the audience. Facing thousands of students, the three expressed their pride in being a part of Chinese science fiction films. Mike Sui first said: "The original work of" The Wandering Earth "is very magnificent, and the director Guo Fan is about to take the first step in Chinese hard science fiction. I am honored to be able to participate in it." And shouted: "My little heart can’t take it anymore."

Zhao Jinmai, a young actor born after 2000, used five "truths" at the scene to express his luck to join the crew of "Wandering Earth", and thanked the seniors for their care during the filming. Through this shooting experience, he learned a lot of secret techniques. "Every actor in" Wandering Earth "worked very hard. Zhao Jinmai’s costume is nearly 40 kilograms, and the descendants are three centimeters shorter when he wears it." Mike Sui quipped, which shows that every participant in front of and behind the screen of "Wandering Earth" worked hard.

Wu Mengda led the fan girl to scream, stubborn experience won applause, and thousands of people shouted adventure


The main creator of the scene also participated in the interaction on the topic of "me and my stubbornness". Zhao Jinmai said frankly: "My stubbornness is to constantly change myself. I used to be known for playing the little devil fairy of Bala La, but I don’t want to be limited to children’s characters." At the request of the audience, Zhao Jinmai performed the transformation of the little devil fairy of Bala La on the spot, and said generously: "Thank you for liking the little devil fairy, but I also hope that everyone can see my growth!"

And "National Grandpa" Wu Mengda’s answer touched the audience very much. He said: "My stubbornness is that I am 65 years old this year, and I have been shooting comedy for more than 40 years, but starting from’The Wandering Earth ‘to challenge new genres, but also to challenge new selves." During the filming of the film, Wu Mengda went into a swagger, and he had to take oxygen after each scene, but for the sake of Chinese science fiction, he and the young actors were stubborn to the end!


During the interactive session, Wu Mengda’s fan girl screamed and confessed. She said excitedly: "Teacher Wu Mengda is my favorite actor", and she also asked Wu Mengda why she starred in "Wandering Earth". Wu Mengda believes: "At first, I was a little mentally resistant when I received the invitation from Director Guo Fan, and I also had a skeptical attitude towards Chinese science fiction. But when I really put myself into the work, I saw the more than 500 young staff members of the crew face the work with enthusiasm every day, which really infected me. So it is my duty to throw myself into this filming full of novelty and adventure."


After the students shared their stubborn experiences with enthusiasm, the Zhengzhou Station of the film’s high school roadshow ended perfectly as thousands of students shouted "Wandering Earth, the first day of the new year, adventure departure". Next, the "Wandering Earth" crew will also go to Nanjing, Harbin, Xiamen and other cities.

 

The film is based on Liu Cixin’s science fiction novel of the same name and directed by Guo Fan. Wu Jing starred in the film, with Qu Chuxiao, Li Guangjie, Wu Mengda, and Zhao Jinmai starring. Mike Sui, Qu Jingjing, Zhang Yichi, Yang Haoyu, Li Hongchen, Yang Yi, Jiang Zhigang, and Zhang Huan starred. It tells the story of the sun’s imminent destruction and humanity’s impending journey to launch the "Wandering Earth" plan. The film will be officially released on February 5, 2019. On the first day of the new year, take a risk!

What is the difference between Yunqi system and standard luxury suspension system?

When I looked up at U9 and walked out of the stage in a dancing posture, I knew it was unusual. On April 10th, BYD released the cloud chariot system for new energy vehicles, which was specially created for new energy vehicles to improve driving quality. Among them, there are four sets of body control systems with different characteristics, including Yunqi -C, Yunqi -A, Yunqi -P and Yunqi -X, and different systems will be set for different models.

In terms of interpretation, the term "chariot" means a multi-person assisted push cart, which describes the state of the emperor’s trip in that year. However, in BYD’s technical system, Yunchariot represents different functional contents under the same platform structure, so it has different classifications. This setting is similar to luxury brands that pay attention to driving, such as Mercedes-Benz magic carpet, Audi’s intelligent attitude stabilization system, Land Rover all-terrain feedback system and Porsche PDCC system. Today, I will share their differences with you.

In the new energy era, vehicles will pay more attention to the functional applications such as three-electric technology and assisted driving, and the demand point for driving itself will become weaker. Therefore, for vehicles with higher overall load than traditional fuel, efforts in body control system are the place to open the gap between brands.

Pure electric vehicles can better achieve the 50:50 gold counterweight because the batteries are evenly distributed at the bottom of the vehicle. However, due to the high quality of the overall equipment, the inertia generated during driving will be greater, and the requirements for suspension damping will be higher. At the same time, according to the characteristics of different vehicles, the differences in control systems also make the vehicles have different performances.

The four systems have special targeted uses.

First of all, Yunxiao -C, which can be simply considered as a suspension system with variable damping adjustment, can adjust the hardness and damping effect of the suspension according to the feedback of road conditions by means of electronic dampers. This system is relatively rudimentary, and many models with torsion beam dependent suspensions will have similar systems to adjust the comfort of the suspension. At present, BYD Han is equipped with it, which can provide better damping effect.

Yunqi -A adds an air suspension, which can realize the soft and hard adjustment of the suspension and adjust it according to the actual demand, which is also the common point of air suspension. However, one thing is special. In the process of high-speed steering, an airbag is added to the flank positions on both sides of the bucket seat, which can be inflated according to the change of speed and steering angle, so that passengers can effectively offset the lateral thrust during the shift of center of gravity, and the direct effect is to make passengers sit on the seat more stably.

The cloud chariot -P is set for looking up to the U8 hard-core SUV. It is mainly divided into three contents, the first is the adjustment range of up and down height of 200mm, which makes the vehicle have stronger passability. Secondly, it is able to have stronger compression resistance and cushion the specific impact caused by the height difference. Finally, the most important thing is to have a longer suspension stroke, which can make it closer to the road surface when passing through the undulating road surface to avoid suspension. At the same time, it can realize the dynamic balance of the vehicle by four-wheel linkage and achieve the same height of the four wheels.

Finally, it is the strongest cloud -X, just like looking up at U9 at the beginning. As a super-running model, more attention is paid to handling, especially in high-speed dynamic driving texture. The active anti-roll bar can be adjusted moderately by combining with the road surface perception software, so that the included angle between the vehicle and the ground can be tracked more perfectly and the vehicle can be driven closer to the ground.

As mentioned above, Yunqi system can adjust different driving dynamics around cars, SUVs and even sports cars. It is targeted and differentiated, and it can be adjusted and adapted according to the driving conditions of different models. What are the differences from the familiar Mercedes-Benz magic carpet, Audi intelligent attitude stabilization system, Land Rover all-terrain feedback system and Porsche PDCC system? What I have concluded is that, on the one hand, the hardware is diversified and has different configurations according to different models, and it will not go all over the world like other systems. On the other hand, according to the computing power of the cloud, we can combine the road conditions and the data collected by the algorithm to simulate the suspension damping effect that changes according to driving habits. This is a process of continuous learning and optimization.

Say, where are the system characteristics of other brands?

First of all, the magic carpet of Mercedes-Benz is called the magic body control system. Through the "road scanning camera" located at the windshield, the road conditions within 15 meters in front of the vehicle and above 3 mm in ground height can be pre-scanned. When the road surface in front is monitored to be undulating, the magic body control system will automatically change the hydraulic oil quantity of the hydraulic tappet in suspension, and at the same time, it will be integrated with many sensors, calculation actuators and air suspension.

The core of this is predictability, which can perceive the road condition in advance and adjust it, instead of passively reacting when the vehicle drives to the corresponding road section. This configuration is unique to luxury models on Mercedes-Benz S-Class models.

Audi’s intelligent attitude stabilization system, as its name implies, can provide a more stable body driving posture. This system can increase or decrease the load of each wheel through the motor according to the road condition, so it can actively adjust the chassis position no matter what driving situation. In comfort+mode, the intelligent attitude stabilization system can use the tilting function when driving in corners, and can adjust the body posture to reduce the lateral acceleration of passengers.

When entering the curve, the intelligent attitude stabilization system will raise the car body on the outside of the curve and lower the car body on the other side, so that the deviation between the vehicle and the curve is controlled within 3. When driving in a straight line, the intelligent attitude stabilization system can provide buffer compensation for the pitching motion of the chassis, which makes the car body more trackable during driving.

In the field of cars, what Yunqi -C and Yunqi -A have in common with Mercedes-Benz magic carpet and Audi intelligent posture stabilization is that they can adjust the damping adaptively to improve the comfort, but Mercedes-Benz has better foresight and can simulate the road conditions in advance, which Yunqi can’t compare with.

Compared with Audi’s intelligent posture stabilization, Yunqi did not adjust the posture of the whole vehicle, but only simulated the corresponding feelings on the seat, which is a fundamental difference. After all, it has nothing to do with the dynamics of the whole vehicle.

In addition, for luxury models, Land Rover ATF system needs to manually select the corresponding mode system for proper allocation. The changes are the response speed of the engine, the acceleration slip regulation and the difference of the dynamic stability system of the car body, which can have more obvious effects on fuel vehicles.

However, compared with BYD’s Yunqi -P, it is developed around new energy vehicles, which can achieve a more accurate ratio of power output and four-wheel independent operation, which perfectly solves the problem that pure electric vehicles have no mechanical differential, can achieve four-wheel different speed differences, and has better effects on the ability to get rid of difficulties and the adjustment of suspension stroke.

Finally, Porsche’s PDCC, whose core is the active anti-roll bar, can actively adjust the speed between different wheels when cornering, improve the grip of the inner wheel, and compensate for the difference, so that the vehicle has better tracking performance during cornering, and will not be out of control because of the influence of speed and corner angle, thus restraining the roll and improving the cornering speed.

From this technical point of view, BYD’s Yunqi -X system imitates such functionality, which can monitor the dynamics of wheels from time to time. At the same time, it is more evolved than Porsche PDCC in that it is equipped with a laser radar and can realize four-wheel independent operation at the same time. This is the reason for the frog jump.

Conclusion:

The different module functions of the cloud-chariot system can be used for different vehicles and different scenes, which can be said to be very targeted. Compared with the system provided by luxury brands to improve driving quality, it is very similar in functional attributes and effects, and the only difference is that it is aimed at new energy vehicles.

The value of luxury brands lies in providing luxury experience and more comfortable riding experience, which is the ultimate goal of all research and development of advanced suspension systems. However, Yunqi has mastered the core contents of luxury brands at present, and at the same time, it can be said that the innovation in the field of new energy is more advanced.

When others are still thinking about how to improve their sense of science and technology, BYD still returns to the original point and focuses on the driving quality itself. This consideration shows that BYD has begun to understand cars.

There can’t be a price before the official release! Why is Xiaomi car difficult to "price"?

Early this morning, Wang Hua, general manager of the public relations department of Xiaomi Group, released the ultimate rumor about Xiaomi Automobile on the social media platform. Wang Hua said that in the past two days, rumors have been made three times to clarify the price P chart of Xiaomi Automobile.Today, the rumor is finally dismissed. Until the official Xiaomi automobile product launch conference is over, all the information and posters with Xiaomi automobile version and price are fake..

Wang Hua also said that there can be no price and policy before the official release. Don’t believe the so-called insider rumors, no one knows the real price, or even the official release time, because everything has not yet been determined.

Things to review:

Regarding the price of Xiaomi car, at the Xiaomi car technology conference held on December 28, 2023, Lei Jun, the founder of Xiaomi Group, explained the performance of the first car SU7 of Xiaomi and said firmly: "So don’t shout 99,000 (referring to the pricing of Xiaomi SU7), it is impossible!" Lei Jun further said: "Anyone who has this kind of performance and configuration will get more than 400,000! Therefore, there is no need to talk about 149,000, but we still have to respect technology! "

On January 2nd, Lei Jun said that Xiaomi SU750 had no rivals within 7.5 million and rushed to Weibo for hot search. On the same day, Lei Jun wrote on the social media platform, "Xiaomi SU7, who is competing with the same file?" . In the comment area of this article in Weibo, some netizens commented, "Without the price, I don’t know who is in the same file. Mr. Lei will give the price quickly and want to buy a car for the New Year."

Subsequently, Lei Jun replied to this comment, "Is there an opponent within 500,000?"

Xiaomi public relations rumors three times in two days.

Recently, some people have made a price poster similar to Xiaomi’s official style, which indicates that the pre-sale price of Xiaomi SU7 rear-drive standard version is 99,000, and the pre-sale price of Xiaomi SU7 four-wheel drive Max version is 599,000.

In this regard, Wang Hua, the head of Xiaomi’s public relations, denied rumors on the social media platform on the 3rd. These pictures were fake at first glance. "Not only is the font wrong, but there is no metric mark, and the screenshot of official website is directly P".

After the rumor was rumored on the 3rd, a poster picture of the scheduled opening of Xiaomi SU7 was circulated on the Internet. This time, the picture was made very realistically, with many details, but unfortunately it was still fake.

Wang Hua, head of Xiaomi’s public relations, said: "Everyone’s expectations have been received, and the rhythm of a daily picture is unnecessary. When it is officially released, everyone can see it at a glance."

Why is Xiaomi car difficult to "price"?

Nowadays, the pricing of Xiaomi SU7 has become a mystery, and it has also earned enough attention.

According to national business daily, according to Pang Rui, a well-known brand expert and founding partner of Zhansheng Communication, this may be a "test water" for Xiaomi Automobile in pricing. "So far, for the pricing of Xiaomi SU7, Xiaomi is more denying the price circulated on the Internet, without giving any positive hints. Perhaps this is also a pricing test strategy, that is, by observing the market’s public opinion feedback on different rumored prices, Xiaomi can constantly correct the price and gradually form the final pricing in the process. " He said, "Xiaomi has denied the three prices of 99,000, 149,000 and 599,000, which also shows that Xiaomi SU7 will not be positioned in the low-end or luxury car market, but is more likely to choose the middle and high-end market."

Whether it is electronic products such as mobile phones or home appliances such as televisions, millet products are often known for their cost performance. When Xiaomi turned to the car track, many people also expected its first car, especially in terms of price, hoping that it could maintain the brand tonality of "high cost performance".

Some netizens speculate from the current automobile market that the minimum starting price of Xiaomi automobile may be between 200,000 yuan and 300,000 yuan. At the same time, it is reported that Xiaomi SU7 Max needs to be sold for more than 330,000 yuan to achieve breakeven.

According to China Net Finance, Liang Zhenpeng, a senior industrial economic observer, said that Xiaomi’s pricing was not announced, which may be a decision made by considering various factors. "On the one hand, it takes a long time for a car to go from PPT to commercial mass production, and then to improve the yield to meet the standards of product quality, process performance and other technical parameters. For Xiaomi, the cost is temporarily difficult to determine, so the price has not been disclosed yet; On the other hand, in the process of R&D and manufacturing, Xiaomi’s automobile products will continue to be iteratively updated, and the cost will continue to change, thus affecting the final pricing. "

How much do you think Xiaomi will sell?

Upstream news is integrated from Sina Weibo, Zhongxin Jingwei, China Net Finance, national business daily, etc.

Editor: Yang Hong Editor: Zhou Shangdou Audit: Feng Fei
