A growing elf! Test drive lifan 320 new interior version.

  [car home Test Drive] Recently, chongqing lifan Automobile launched a small upgraded model from lifan 320, which was temporarily named as lifan 320 New Interior Edition. As the name implies, the main change of this model must be in the interior. Lifan 320 is positioned in the small car class, where it can be said that it is a strong hand, so to survive or gain more space in it is not only the price on the one hand, but also the practicality and personality on the other. Recently, we had the honor to participate in the test drive meeting of the new interior model in lifan 320, to see what unique weapon this model with widely disputed appearance can survive in the market.




●  Appearance aspect

  The appearance design of lifan 320 is the most controversial point. When you first see it, you will be surprised to find that this car has many similarities with many models. Flat body, vertically designed C-pillar, blackened A-pillar and B-pillar make people think of MINI. But it’s better to learn from it than to imitate it. lifan 320’s exterior design has also incorporated many design concepts of Lifan, such as headlights and air intake grille. Although it looks a little stiff, as a domestic independent brand model, this step still needs to be taken now.

  Lifan 320’s front face design incorporates many sports styles. The honeycomb grille and the curved front machine cover all convey "I am very athletic". The amoeba-like headlights, though novel in design, don’t fit in with its tough overall appearance lines, and even though the low beam lamp is equipped with a lens, it is still illuminated by halogen bulbs instead of xenon lamps. This design seems a bit redundant. If the lens is deleted and then some more practical configurations are added, it may be recognized by more people.

  When you drive a lifan 320 in the downtown area, you will find that you have accumulated a lot of people’s attention, mainly because its design is very similar to the MINI mini, which makes people easily mistake it for that classic model.

  Perhaps the most controversial part of lifan 320 is its side lines, flat body lines and tough cab lines. This design has been used on other models, so when lifan 320 went on the market, many people talked about imitating other models. But imitating others is definitely a good place to learn from, and the ultimate goal of imitation is to find a way of your own. As a regular Lifan automobile, we should improve ourselves through continuous learning and integrate our own characteristics into future products.



  The test drive model is a high-profile model in lifan 320, which is equipped with a chrome-plated door handle, a bumper with the same color on the body, a chrome-plated letterhead, an electric rear wiper and a rear spoiler with LED brake lights. The overall style is very sporty. But I feel that too much chrome decoration is a bit tacky for a model suitable for young people to drive. It is better to add some scratch strips or personalized car logos, which is more attractive to young car buyers.

  It is obvious that lifan 320’s tail design imitates and draws lessons from it, but Lifan did not copy it intact, but added Lifan’s own design, and two round lights formed an oval taillight, especially to explain that lifan 320’s brakes have very high brightness at night and faster response speed, which is very helpful to the driving safety of the car.

  In terms of tires, lifan 320’s new interior version has not made any changes, and it still uses Jiatong 165/70R14 tires. For a car, this equipment may be for the purpose of achieving good fuel economy. Although the size of the tire is small, the design of the wheel hub is very thoughtful. If the size can be increased, I think the visual effect will be better.

Change one  The color matching of the seat has changed.

  Since it is called the new interior version, there will be obvious changes in the interior of the car. After opening the door, it is found that the new interior version of lifan 320 has replaced a brand-new seat color design, which is mainly dark beige with gray. The most remarkable effect of this design is that it gives people a warmer feeling. Although dark beige will not be too dirty in daily use, it is more intimate than black seats.

Change 2 dashboard design is novel and full of sense of technology.

  The next significant change is the dashboard, which has added many popular elements, such as LCD screen and digital speedometer, and it is worth mentioning that the brand-new dashboard looks like Mickey Mouse’s head, with two ears for oil gauge and water thermometer, and a large semicircle in the middle for tachometer and speedometer. When the lights are on, the whole dashboard really looks like Mickey Mouse.

Change three  The sound panel changes greatly.

  The sound control panel has also changed greatly, from the original square design to the smiling face shape composed of circles and curves, but in actual use, it is found that there is no CD player, only USB, AUX interface and radio. At present, most people are still used to using CD, which is not only convenient but also has good sound quality. The main reason why lifan 320 doesn’t have a CD is probably the cost.

  When lifan 320 was just listed, many friends noticed the shape of its door panel. If you look closely, it is actually a funny smiling face, with one big eye and one small eye, and the storage compartment is like a big mouth with a split smile. This design highlights the young characteristics of lifan 320, and it is still rare in China. lifan 320 has also taken a step in innovation.

  As mentioned earlier, the car door panel in lifan 320 is designed with a smiling face. Although it is novel and beautiful, you will obviously find that there is a problem in this design in daily use, that is, the door handle is designed to be in a relatively backward position, which means that you will feel very uncomfortable when you close the door after getting on the bus. Generally, the door closing handle will be set in the middle of the car door, which will make it very convenient to close the door. However, when the lifan 320 is set in a backward position, the arm bending will be awkward.

  Now that you come back to life, you will also find that the lockers on the car doors are not very convenient to use. The slender openings can’t hold wider items, but only some documents or small items. There is no storage compartment on the back door of lifan 320, so it is not considerate to take care of the rear passengers. In fact, these are small parts, and Lifan Automobile still needs to make more efforts in humanized design.

  The glove box also has the same problem. When you open the glove box, you will find some damping, which is very good! However, observing the inside of the glove box, it is found that the space is very small, and the opening device of the glove box occupies one third of the whole space, so it is impossible to place some bulky items.


Car home chongqing lifan lifan 320 09 Lingxuan Edition EX


  As a small car, lifan 320’s interior space is relatively spacious, especially in the head, and even passengers who are about 1.8 meters tall will not feel oppressive. Through experience, it is found that there are some shortcomings in the design of lifan 320’s back seat. The size of the back seat is a little short. Although it is equipped with an adjustable headrest, when the headrest is adjusted to the highest position, the neck will still be put down, and the taller passengers will feel uncomfortable.

  Lifan 320’s trunk has a volume of 300 liters, which is moderate in the class of small cars. It can also be placed in the back seat to expand the cargo space. When the rear seat is laid down, the two buckles of the fixed seat will be exposed, which will directly affect the shape of the loading space, which is more troublesome for carrying some large items.

  In these subtle design aspects, it reflects whether the manufacturer has considered the actual use of the product thoroughly or not. For a newly established brand like Lifan Automobile, it is necessary to constantly improve itself through continuous practice and long-term customer feedback.

●  Test drive part

  Finally, in terms of driving performance, lifan 320 played a sports card at the initial stage of listing, and its imitation and reference object was also MINI Cooper, which mainly played sports and manipulation. First of all, lifan 320 adopts four-wheel independent suspension. This design is relatively rare in the domestic small car class, and it also appears on the model of about 50,000 yuan, which makes everyone curious about this car and wants to see how it performs in handling.


Car home chongqing lifan lifan 320 09 Lingxuan Edition EX


  The characteristic of four-wheel independent suspension is that all four wheels are in a relatively independent state, so that each wheel can separately filter the vibration from the ground and improve the comfort of the vehicle. And it is also better in maneuverability. Through the test drive experience, I feel that lifan 320’s suspension needs to be improved in terms of training. When driving on the road with poor road conditions, the vibration inside the car is more complicated and the noise transmission is not too delicate.

  Lifan 320’s steering wheel size is relatively large for a small car. Although it is made of soft materials, it feels good, but the larger size does not fit its sports style design concept. When we are driving normally, we will slightly shake the steering wheel from side to side and find that there will be a lot of margin.

  When the speed was about 50 km/h through some gentle detours, the body roll of the 320 began to appear, and the side support of the seat was not enough, which could not give people enough confidence, so they could only reduce the speed to alleviate the roll amplitude.


Car home chongqing lifan lifan 320 09 Lingxuan Edition EX

  Lifan 320 is equipped with a 1.3L engine, with a maximum output power of 65KW/6000rpm, a maximum output torque of 110N.m/3000-5000rpm and a top speed of 155km/h.. In actual driving, this 1.3L engine has no problem in propelling lifan 320, and the speed of 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears is relatively fast.

  After the 5th gear is accelerated to 80km/h, it is obvious that the noise of the engine is getting worse. At this time, the tachometer shows 2100rpm, which is reasonable. However, when the vehicle speed rises to 120 km/h, the noise has begun to affect the normal conversation of the people in the car, and it is difficult to fully accelerate at this time.


Car home chongqing lifan lifan 320 09 Lingxuan Edition EX


  Strangely, at the current speed, we only see the driving speed of 2500rpm … 80 km/h is 2100rpm, and 120km/h is only 2500rpm? Is it possible that the speed has increased a lot, but the speed has not changed much? I think there should be something wrong with the dashboard. If so, I hope this is just an individual phenomenon.

Editor’s comment:


  As the main model of Lifan Automobile, lifan 320 bears the efforts and hopes of many people. Although there are still some problems to be improved, the performance of this car is satisfactory on the whole. After all, considering its price of about 50,000 yuan, it is very good to get a fashionable, beautiful and dynamic car.


  At present, the newly-launched lifan 320 new interior model is to meet the needs of consumers by changing itself. In the future, Lifan will also make efforts in the after-sales service network and model innovation, especially to get out of the imitation circle as soon as possible and establish its own characteristics and even brand family characteristics as soon as possible. This is a thorny issue! At the same time, it is also the hope of people who pay attention to their own brands. (Photo, text/Yang Li, car home)

Ten rumors in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression: the Eighth Route Army planted opium on a large scale.

[On August 15th, 1945, Japan announced its unconditional surrender. After eight years of hard fighting, China finally won. However, the people and events in this period of time are gradually out of shape in the reports of future generations. On the occasion of the 69th anniversary of Japan’s surrender, Observer.com specially launched a series of "Ten Rumors of the Anti-Japanese War" to set the record straight. Previously published "Zhang Lingfu, the Top Ten Rumors in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression》、《Sun Liren, the top ten rumors in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, buried the Japanese army alive.》、《Ten rumors of the Anti-Japanese War: "Fishing posts"""and"The chairman’s guard of the top ten rumors of the anti-Japanese war》。 】

In the modern history of China, opium is a scar that can’t be bypassed anyway. It has harmed hundreds of millions of Chinese, and the resulting war has also changed the direction of China’s traditional society. Therefore, today, the vast majority of Chinese, who are sane and law-abiding, will inevitably show an expression of disgust when referring to drugs represented by opium, and then condemn them with a hundred thousand points.

However, with the help of the increasingly developed network platform, the saying that the CPC and the Eighth Route Army were built and built into large-scale planting, selling and encouraging opium consumption, which was originally circulated in academic circles, quickly spread among the people. After reading similar rumors, some readers who are not very rich in historical knowledge can naturally understand the anger in their hearts, but history is really like this?

The origin of rumors

The story that communist party and the Eighth Route Army planted and sold opium first appeared during the Anti-Japanese War. At that time, in order to package its "anti-drug achievements", the Japanese puppet government often organized people to stage a farce of "communist drug trafficking", and then published the news that "opium X was seized and communist X was captured alive" in a certain place in its imperial traitor media. However, during most of the Anti-Japanese War, these reports did not attract much attention from public opinion at that time and later academic circles.

In addition, in recent years, many so-called "old cadres", "old Red Army", "my grandfather", "my great grandfather" and "my second uncle" have appeared on the Chinese Internet, and "witnessed" the communist party Eighth Route Army’s large-scale opium cultivation and trafficking in various places. However, these "testimonies" almost have no exact information about time, place, people, etc., and there are almost no other objective evidences that can be corroborated. Therefore, such "testimonies" are unacceptable to those who are interested in textual research on historical issues. The following "versions" really make the saying that "the Eighth Route Army sells opium on a large scale" a topic worthy of discussion:

First of all, the Diary of Yan ‘an, the masterpiece of the Comintern’s liaison in the CPC Central Committee and the agent of the Soviet Intelligence Department, Peter Buffilovich Vladimirov. In this book, Vladimir said that he not only witnessed the 359th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army harvesting opium in Nanniwan in the 1930s, but also was personally admitted by senior leaders of the Chinese Communist Party such as Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai and Deng Xiaoping. Because of Vrakimilov’s special status, the publication of Yan ‘an Diary immediately caused a sensation in overseas academic circles.

The second statement comes from Xie Juezai Diary. In his diary in 1944, a few days wrote:

"That is, the legal tender for special goods accounts for government revenue … … Do your best. … … I don’t know that his responsibility is to sell black and white to make up for the financial deficit. " (January 18, 1944)

"Interesting words heard at the symposium: … … ‘ There are few multilateral currencies for special goods, and the future will be terrible ’ " (12 March 1944)

"Leading organs to launch a thing, must be very considerate, often a small step error, can make a big fuss among the masses. ‘ Domestic sales of special goods ’ That is an example. " (1944.3.14)

Attentive readers have noticed that a word called "special goods" is mentioned in these diaries. It is said that this "special goods" is opium.

The third statement comes from the document "Interim Measures for the Collection and Management of Tobacco Tax in Huaitaixi County" which is said to have been promulgated and implemented by the Eighth Route Army in July 1945. This document can be seen everywhere on the Internet now, so it is omitted here.

The fourth argument comes from the textual research of a "famous scholar" in mainland China: Zhang Side, an Eighth Route Army soldier who praised "dying more than Mount Tai" in Mao Zedong’s famous article "Serving the People", actually died in the process of burning opium. This statement is also widely circulated on the Internet.

Zhang Side died of burning opium?

Zhang Side

Opium is not just drugs.

I don’t want to analyze the above statements, because it is very necessary to understand the role of opium in the social and economic operation of China before the Anti-Japanese War.

As we all know, the terminal price of opium is quite high, its volume is not big, and its weight is very light. In old China, where the financial system was chaotic, opium, together with gold, silver and pounds and dollars, became the main hard currency in circulation in China at that time, and was called "yellow, white, black and green". Considering the problems of quantity, scale and difficulty in inspection, opium thus overpowered the most valuable gold, silver and foreign currency, and became the currency with the highest cost performance and liquidity in China before the Anti-Japanese War.

In addition, in old China, which has not yet been industrialized, medicine was originally a scarce material. Sometimes military doctors need surgery, but they often find that there is no narcotic except smoky soil. At this time, opium, which has certain anesthetic and antidiarrheal effects, can indeed play the role of medicine at some time.

Although opium was introduced into China from abroad, after the mid-19th century, in order to alleviate the outflow of silver, the Qing government and local governments began to encourage poppy cultivation. Before the Anti-Japanese War, China had become the first drug producer in the world. Most people born after the founding of New China know what opium is like in books, but today, people over 80 years old are almost impressed by the special smell produced when cooking opium. According to the American representative’s speech at the 18th meeting of the Committee on Smoking Prohibition of the League of Nations in 1934, the annual output of opium in the world except China was 1,770 tons. However, according to the estimation of Dr. Lien Teh Wu, director of the National Port Quarantine Administration of China at that time, the opium output of China in 1930 was an astonishing 12,000 tons, equivalent to seven times the world output value. Even so, scholars all over the world generally believed that this data greatly underestimated the opium production capacity of China at that time.

Before the Anti-Japanese War, the grass-roots society in China did not have much prejudice against opium, and opium was also a necessity for wealthy families. There is no doubt that China was once the first drug consumer in the world. According to statistics, the population of China was 474 million in 1932, but the number of drug addicts nationwide reached 80 million, accounting for 16.8% of the total population. Considering the weak grassroots control and statistical ability of the Kuomintang government at that time, the real drug addicts will only be more.

 

Before the Communist Party of China (CPC) took control of northern Shaanxi, Shanxi and other places, Shanxi-Shaanxi area was one of the most serious areas in China. In the 1920s, Shaanxi had reached the point where there were no smoking houses, and all men, women and children smoked. Smokers accounted for more than 50% of Shaanxi’s total population, and poppy cultivation and opium manufacturing became the only prosperous industries in Shaanxi.

The influence of opium on the old China society completely exceeded the imagination of ordinary people for ordinary drugs. If we use today’s knowledge of drugs to mechanically copy the opium problem during the Anti-Japanese War, it will naturally be difficult to understand the essence of the opium problem.

Bowing to reality: recognizing opium’s status as a hard currency

What is clear and certain is that the Communist Party of China (CPC) is the only political force in the modern history of China that really tried its best to fight drugs in the controlled area. As early as the Agrarian Revolutionary War, the Chinese Communist Party took drug control as one of its priorities. After the end of the Long March and the Red Army stationed in Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia, the hardest hit area with a history of opium cultivation and trafficking for hundreds of years, communist party immediately launched a massive anti-drug campaign in the border area, which basically eliminated drug abuse in the control area in a very short time. At present, it has basically reached a consensus in academic circles.

Some people will ask: "Since you can ban smoking in communist party, why not ban opium as well?" Communist party did try to ban opium cultivation in its jurisdiction and made considerable efforts (this was in sharp contrast to the various warlords who planted and sold cigarettes at that time), but history proved that this idea was still a pattern at that time. It takes many years to restore the land after poppy eradication before it can be used to produce food again, so banning smoking often brings a new problem: how to solve the rations of tobacco farmers and opium processing workers?

From the national economic point of view, even in a state of war, unless there is a natural barrier like the Taiwan Province Strait, the domestic material circulation can be restricted and blocked, but it is difficult to be cut off. After the anti-drug campaign was launched in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia border region, the situation of smuggling opium into the border region increased rapidly. Because a place bans opium production and restricts opium consumption, it will often lead to an increase in opium prices, which will only stimulate opium cultivation in other provinces and even lead to the outflow of local gold and silver. From this point of view, a truly unified state power is the prerequisite for the complete prohibition of opium, which was not available in China during the Anti-Japanese War.

In history, especially when the base area of the border region was in trouble in 1941, some people and even some units in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia border region did smuggle opium, and the government of the border region severely cracked down on these behaviors within its capacity. As for the large-scale cultivation of opium within the jurisdiction, it is hard for me to imagine that opium poppy will be cultivated on a large scale in the base area in the early 1940s when the whole country was suffering from famine. After all, opium soil can’t be used as food, and the food bought from enemy-occupied areas through black market and other channels is only a drop in the bucket compared with the population in the border area.

Due to the lack of other enough hard currency, the Eighth Route Army did have a considerable amount of opium opium, which was used to balance the import and export deficit in the border region. Even in the history of the Party and the memoirs of leaders, there are not many taboos about this, because this is the special national conditions of China in those days caused by history. Since it is impossible to seize the national political power for the time being, what communist party can do is to bow to reality — — Recognize opium’s status as a national hard currency.

Eight roads grow opium on a large scale? Selective slander

After understanding these background knowledge, we began to systematically analyze the reliability of several origins of the statement "the Eighth Route Army planted and sold opium on a large scale".

First of all, talk about Yan ‘an Diary. Although this book was born in the background of the break-up between China and the Soviet Union, Yuri Vlasov, the actual editor of the book, later admitted that this "Yan ‘an Diary" was compiled for the anti-China needs of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, but the author dare not completely deny that the historical materials mentioned in "Yan ‘an Diary" must be false, that is, completely unreliable.

Yuri Vlasov later admitted that this "Yan 'an Diary" was a work compiled for the anti-China needs of the Central Committee of the CPSU.

Yuri Vlasov, the actual editor of Yan ‘an Diary. He later admitted that the diary of Yan ‘an was a work compiled for the anti-China needs of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

In the environment of Yan ‘an at that time, it was difficult for Vladimir to write a "diary" that strongly criticized the leaders of the Communist Party of China, but the biggest Bug of this "diary" was that there were too many contradictions between the contents of the diary and historical facts. For example, Vladimir Mirov directly questioned Mao Zedong about opium in northern Shaanxi, and Deng Xiaoping made an answer. The date of the diary is August 2, 1942, but at this time Deng Xiaoping has been appointed as the secretary of the Taihang Branch of the Communist Party of China. He should be on the Taihang Mountain, not in northern Shaanxi. In addition, the 359th Brigade harvested opium in Nanniwan in the 1930s before the Great Production Movement, and the opium processing factory was located in Chaling &hellip, Hunan Province, which was closely controlled by the Kuomintang. … Mistakes like that, then more.

In a word, there are too many serious contradictions between the contents of Yan ‘an Diary and historical facts. Combined with the historical background of the publication of this work, the original historical status of this work is very questionable.

 

Secondly, the statement about special goods in Xie Juezai Diary. As it happens, the author has a set of Diary of Xie Juezai edited and published by People’s Publishing House in 1982, and the records of "special goods" in online diaries are indeed true, so the author makes a contextual analysis of these diaries.

"That is, the legal tender for special goods accounts for government revenue … … Do your best. … … I don’t know that his responsibility is to sell black and white to make up for the financial deficit. " (January 18, 1944) and "Anecdotes heard at the forum: … … ‘ There are few multilateral currencies for special goods, and the future will be terrible ’ (When the border currency is recovered, the price of special goods falls, and it is extremely difficult to buy special goods) "(March 12, 1944).

These two days’ diaries all describe Xie Juezai’s own views on the economic problems in the border region, and these are the only paragraphs in the two days’ diaries that mention "special goods" and "black and white goods". Although there is no unanimous conclusion on what kind of products "special goods" are (it is said that "special goods" refer to local specialty salt), even if we assume that "black goods" in "special goods" and "black and white goods" refer to opium, it can only prove that opium is used as hard currency to balance the fiscal deficit in the border region as I said above, and it cannot prove that the Eighth Route Army in communist party has large-scale opium cultivation; The diary on March 12 can be understood as a kind of anxiety of the participants in the forum about the relationship between hard currency and currency.

As for the diary of March 14th, 1944, it said: "When a leading organ starts a thing, it must be very considerate, and often a small step makes a mistake, which can cause great trouble among the masses. ‘ Domestic sales of special goods ’ That is an example. " This diary mainly talks about the way of leadership. In 1943, some people in the border area proposed whether to implement "domestic sales of special goods", but this issue quickly caused controversy and was finally rejected. The "domestic sales of special goods" mentioned in the diary should be the discussion of "domestic sales of special goods" in 1943. Combined with the main content of this diary, the diary of March 14th can’t be used as evidence that the Eighth Route Army in communist party planted and sold opium on a large scale.

In addition, Xie Juezai Diary explicitly mentioned drug control for many times and days, but these records were selectively ignored by some scholars. The author now extracts a paragraph:

June 6, 1943

It is proposed to give instructions to the county (city) governments in each district to ban smoking: all commissions and county governments:

Eating opium, a scar left by the old society, has been cured a lot, but there are still a few addicts who have not given up. We must work harder to avoid a resurgence. Unless otherwise prohibited by the prohibition of planting, instructions on the prohibition of eating are given:

……

When summing up the work this year, quitting smoking is one of the assessment results of governments at all levels.

Next, let’s talk about the document "Interim Measures for the Collection and Management of Tobacco Tax in Huaitaixi County". Huaitai West County refers to Huaiyang, Taikang and Xihua counties. Although there is no definite evidence to prove that this "method" does exist, Huaitai and Xixi counties are surrounded by Japanese-occupied areas. It is hard to imagine that the Japanese army, which is rich in opium, will sit idly by and watch the existence of such a commercial and military competitor. Moreover, there is no mention of cultivation in public institutions in this "method", so it is naturally impossible to prove that opium cultivation is the main economic policy of communist party.

Crucially, Huai, Tai and Xi counties used to be the defense zones of the Kuomintang army in Tang Enbo. At the end of 1944, the Kuomintang army was greatly defeated in the battle of Henan, Hunan and Guangxi, and the armed forces behind the enemy lines of the Chinese Communist Party were able to establish this base area. Considering the lag of eradicating opium cultivation, if the proclamation does exist, then this "Measures" is not so much evidence of the Eighth Route Army’s drug manufacturing and trafficking, but rather a profile portrayal of the Kuomintang reactionaries’ opium cultivation and trafficking.

As for the statement that "Zhang Side died in the process of burning opium when his cave collapsed", let’s leave aside the possibility that the Eighth Route Army would be embarrassed and still use the Central Guard Corps to refine opium in 1944, but the biggest loophole of this statement lies in the fact that burning opium is different from burning charcoal. Burning charcoal doesn’t have to be looked after all the time, but refining opium must be looked after all the time. With the ventilation of the cave, the person who looks after the opium will be poisoned, and there is no need to wait until the cave collapses.

After Li Mi led his troops to flee Myanmar, one of his "main businesses" was poppy cultivation. After years of development, the Golden Triangle has gradually become "famous"

The Last Opium of the Republic of China

Having said that, I finally want to talk about how drug control was carried out in New China after the War of Liberation.

In some traditional opium producing areas, party and government workers will level the opium fields, then collect and destroy drugs, and at the same time give some rations to farmers, and then switch to grain after a period of time. Those who take or inject drugs should register and quit within a time limit according to the size and age of their addiction; Secondly, the staff also linked drug rehabilitation with production education, and involved those "addicts" who were not involved in production and behavior degeneration into the tide of industrial and agricultural production, so that they knew that they were members of society and stimulated their determination to give up drugs. In this way, although there are records of serious drug addicts dying from drug addiction attacks all over the country, the vast majority of drug addicts have been thoroughly remoulded after receiving withdrawal treatment and productive labor, and become new people who are useful to society.

One of the earliest sources of the Golden Triangle, a world-famous drug producing area, was the Kuomintang Li Mi and other departments that were beaten out of Yunnan. After living in Myanmar and Thailand, poppy cultivation became one of Li Mi’s "main businesses". After years of development, the Golden Triangle gradually became "famous". And this site rich in drug lords has become the last hiding place of opium in the Republic of China.

After communist party came to power, he made China a glorious "drug-free country"; Although the Kuomintang regime was nominally unified throughout the country, during its reign, China became the world’s first drug producer and consumer, and after its defeat, it also created the world’s largest drug producer. From this point of view, it is never clear who is more worthy of praise and who should be reviled.

Although the outstanding shares in A shares only account for about 14% of the total issued shares, and the P/E ratio is as high as 113.12 times (calculated at the issue price of 27.46 yuan/share), it still received enthusiastic pursuit and the opening price soared. On the other hand, TSMC, the world’s largest wafer foundry with SMIC as the benchmark, will also release its financial report for the second quarter of 2020 today.

Chips are generally divided into three links — — Chip design, chip manufacturing and chip packaging testing, among which, the wafer foundry link in chip manufacturing where SMIC and TSMC are located is one of the weakest links in Chinese mainland’s chip industry chain at present.

"First-class design, second-class packaging and testing, and third-class chip manufacturing", Sheng Linghai, vice president of global consulting firm Gartner Semiconductor Research Group and analyst, commented on the current situation of Chinese mainland’s chip industry and global benchmarking to Business Data School. "At present, Huawei Hisilicon’s chip design is already the world’s first-class level, and the technical threshold for packaging and testing is relatively low, but the chip manufacturing link — — The technology including upstream mask aligner equipment and wafer foundry is still far from the world’s first-class. "

According to incomplete statistics, there are as many as 20 chip companies listed or to be listed in science and technology innovation board from April to July, but only one chip manufacturer is SMIC.

Just recently, at the moment when the "half-time war" in chip manufacturing was tense, the Chinese Academy of Sciences announced that it had broken through the 5-nanometer lithography technology, and SMIC had also developed a production process below 7 nanometers, which could be mass-produced by the end of the year, which brought a glimmer of light to the localization of chips, but how much did these relieve the urgent demand for high-end chips in one to three years?

Business Data School made a detailed comparison between SMIC and TSMC in the past five years. From the perspective of revenue scale (see the figure below for details), TSMC’s revenue has always been more than 10 times that of SMIC, while its wafer shipment is only about 2-3 times, which means that SMIC’s price per wafer is cheaper than TSMC’s, which shows that SMIC’s bargaining power is far lower than TSMC’s.

According to the rough calculation of Business Data School, in 2019, the shipment price of TSMC per wafer was about $3,609.1, while that of SMIC was only $619.6, with a price difference of six times.

(Cartography: Business Data School) 

It is precisely because of the low price that SMIC’s gross profit margin has remained between 20% and 30%, far below TSMC’s gross profit margin of over 45%.

 The reason why the price gap is so large is that SMIC’s mass-produced products are still relatively backward. In 2019, the two areas with the largest production capacity are still between 0.15/0.18 micron and 55/65 nm, while the current world-class high-end chips are mainly 14 nm, especially at 28 nm. Now there has been a global overcapacity situation.

At present, the revenue of SMIC’s 14 nm and 28 nm process products is relatively low, and the 28 nm process products are facing the risks of overcapacity, continuous decline in revenue, high depreciation pressure and negative gross profit margin.

In the past three years, the revenue of SMIC’s 28 nm process products was divided into 1.63 billion yuan, 1.24 billion yuan and 810 million yuan, accounting for 8.12%, 6.19% and 4.03% respectively, and the revenue and proportion continued to decline; In the fourth quarter of 2019, mass production of 14 nm process products began, and the related income was 57.0615 million yuan, accounting for 0.29%.

To sum up, SMIC has transferred some general equipment originally used in the 28 nm process to other processes with higher profits.

(Cartography: Business Data School)

This also directly determines the level of net profit. The net interest rates of SMIC in recent three years are 5.1%, 2.3% and 4.1%, which are far lower than the net interest rates of TSMC of 32.3%, 34.0% and 35.1%.

After deducting non-recurring gains and losses in 2018 and 2019, SMIC’s net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company was negative, which were-6.168 billion yuan and-5.22 billion yuan respectively.

Behind the difference in chip prices between SMIC and TSMC is the gap in advanced technology. To further enhance commercial competitiveness, we must catch up technically.

The rich terminal application scenarios of integrated circuits determine that the mainstream technology nodes and processes of chip products in various sub-sectors are different, and the technology iteration and corresponding market demand change rapidly.

Advanced technology generally advances one generation after one to three years, such as TSMC’s mass production of 16 nm /14 nm in 2015, 10 nm in 2016, 7 nm in 2018 and 5 nm in 2020. If the technology iteration of wafer foundry lags behind the technological requirements of product application, it will not meet the needs of the market and customers.

According to IC Insights statistics, TSMC accounted for 59% of the global pure wafer foundry market share in 2018, and SMIC accounted for 6%. The mass production time of SMIC’s 14 nm process is 2019, and the next generation process has entered the stage of customer introduction.

Although the research and development of advanced technology needs constant capital investment and accumulation, the emergence of key technical figures can often push this process forward a long way.

A key figure behind SMIC’s breakthrough in 14 nm and 7 nm technology is Liang Mengsong, the co-CEO of SMIC. In just 298 days, the difficulty of 14 nm process technology was overcome, and the yield of the process was improved to 95%.

As a former research and development backbone of TSMC, Liang Mengsong is one of the top ten chip talents in the world. After leaving TSMC for half a year in 2009, Liang Mengsong joined Samsung, which directly upgraded Samsung’s technical level by one generation, from 28 nm to 14 nm.

The next SMIC to conquer is the mass production of 7 nanometers.

In addition, according to Liang Mengsong, the development route of SMIC’s 7nm process technology is not much different from TSMC’s. On the 7 nm process node, three types have been developed, among which the manufacturing process of N7 and N7P can not use EUV lithography technology, while the process of N7+ will use EUV technology, but even if EUV technology is used, the number of mask layers is very small.

On the 5nm process node, EUV lithography technology has been fully utilized, and the number of mask layers can reach as many as 14, which is a high technical level in the industry. — — This is also the part that TSMC is currently trying to mass-produce.

In addition, in terms of production capacity, TSMC currently operates a 150mm fab, six 200mm fabs, five 300mm fabs and four advanced back-end fabs. In 2019, the annual production capacity (in terms of 12-inch equivalent wafers) was about 12.3 million wafers, while in 2018 it was about 12 million wafers. This growth was mainly due to the expansion of 7-nanometer technology.

The layout of SMIC’s fabs is as follows: there are a 300mm fab, a 200mm fab and a controlled 300mm advanced process fab in Shanghai; There is a 300mm wafer factory and a holding 300mm advanced process wafer factory in Beijing. There are two 200mm fabs in Tianjin and Shenzhen. There is a holding 300mm bump processing joint venture factory in Jiangyin.

Since it is a strong technology-driven business, it is inevitable to invest in research and development. The figure below shows the magnitude and proportion of global chip companies’ investment in R&D in 2019.

 Taking SMIC as an example, R&D expenses mainly include depreciation expenses, research and testing expenses, employee compensation expenses, etc. From 2017 to 2019, R&D expenses were 3.57 billion yuan, 4.47 billion yuan and 4.74 billion yuan respectively, showing an increasing trend.

However, the fastest growth is actually "depreciation expense", which is due to the purchase of some advanced machinery and equipment with higher unit price, which makes depreciation expense increase year by year, accounting for 30.34% of R&D expenses in 2019.

Secondly, the cost of research and testing is mainly the sample fee, which was 1.31 billion yuan in 2019, accounting for 27.70% of the research and development expenses, and the research and development efficiency has improved.

Thirdly, it is the salary cost of R&D personnel. In 2019, the salary of R&D personnel of SMIC exceeded 900 million yuan.

Sheng Linghai revealed that due to the current hot chip industry, chip engineers are very expensive at present. A chip design engineer with 10 years of experience has an annual salary of more than 1 million.

Let’s go back to the landing of SMIC in science and technology innovation board. The main purpose of raising funds is also for the construction of new production lines and R&D reserves. Among them, the investment of the 12-inch chip SN1 project is 8 billion yuan, which is used to meet part of the capital demand for building a 12-inch production line project with a monthly production capacity of 35,000 pieces, and the production technology level has been upgraded to 14 nanometers and below; Advanced and mature technology research and development project reserve fund project raised funds of 4 billion yuan for technology research and development to enhance the company’s market competitiveness.

Although the localization of chips is the general trend, the trend of globalization has not changed — — The chip was designed in the United States, processed in Taiwan, China, packaged in Malaysia, and finally sent to China for production and global sales.

"The birth of semiconductors is a result of the common development of all countries. So far, no country can have a complete semiconductor industry chain by itself." Su Wei, general manager of China Resources Microelectronics OEM Group, said, "At present, the self-sufficiency rate of domestic chips is less than 30%, and the development of China’s entire semiconductor industry chain is obviously short-board, but in the field of power semiconductors, we see that it is the first to break through and the gap with the international first-class technology level is narrowing."

At present, the low-end chips can be basically localized, but if we want to go to the high end, the wafer foundry link where SMIC is located will be a key link for the 7-nanometer mass production in the next three years. If it can be successfully realized, Chinese mainland’s chip manufacturing will take another step towards the world-class goal.

Promoting consumption, benefiting people’s livelihood, facilitating people’s life, prosperity of the community business

  Cctv news(News Network): It is an important task for China’s current economic work to focus on expanding domestic demand and restoring and expanding consumption. Since the beginning of this year, China has accelerated the construction of a 15-minute convenient living circle and prosperity of the community commerce, so that residents can enjoy convenient life and services near their homes.

  Up to now, China has built more than 1,400 convenient living circles in 80 cities, with 280,000 commercial outlets covering more than 2,700 residential communities.

  The second floor of the people’s livelihood complex was transformed into a community affordable canteen, and the third floor was transformed into an inclusive pension institution. Not far away, the community has also built a new one for 0— Kindergarten for 3-year-old infants.

  According to the Ministry of Commerce, some studies show that more than half of the daily consumption expenditure of urban residents is concentrated within 1 km around the community, and the community consumption market has great potential.

  Since the beginning of this year, the state has focused on improving the supply facilities for community consumption and enriching diversified consumption formats. This bookstore opened in the community has become a community meeting room with functions such as consumption, leisure and culture.

  In the next step, the state will carry out a three-year campaign to build a convenient living circle for a quarter of an hour nationwide. Based on the principle of "what is lacking and what is replenished", we will optimize the layout of community consumption space and promote the upgrading of community commerce according to the policies of the city and the circle. Form a ladder consumption structure based on huge community consumption, supplemented by surrounding comprehensive commercial centers, and upgrade the key business districts in the city to meet the growing needs of the people for a better life.

Interpretation of "Announcement of Anhui Provincial Taxation Bureau of State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China on Launching a Comprehensive Digital Electronic Invoice Receiving

In order to implement the requirements of the Opinions on Further Deepening the Reform of Tax Collection and Management issued by the Central Office and the State Council, and comprehensively promote the digital upgrade and intelligent transformation of tax collection and management, the Anhui Provincial Taxation Bureau of State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China issued the Announcement of the Anhui Provincial Taxation Bureau of State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China on the pilot work of comprehensively digitizing electronic invoices (hereinafter referred to as the Announcement). The interpretation is as follows.

In order to implement the "Opinions on Further Deepening the Reform of Tax Collection and Management" issued by the Central Office and the State Council, comprehensively promote the digital upgrade and intelligent transformation of tax collection and management, and reduce the cost of collection and payment, State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China has built a national unified electronic invoice service platform. Since December 1, 2021, State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China has carried out a comprehensive digital electronic invoice pilot project in Guangdong Province (excluding Shenzhen, the same below), Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and Shanghai (hereinafter referred to as the "pilot area"), and the system runs smoothly.

In order to further promote the comprehensive digital electronic invoice pilot work, with the consent of State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China, from July 18, 2022, Anhui taxpayers will only accept invoices issued by some taxpayers in the pilot areas through the electronic invoice service platform.

2. What are the face information of all-electric invoices?

The basic contents mainly include: QR code, invoice number, invoice date, buyer’s information, seller’s information, project name, specifications, unit, quantity, unit price, amount, tax rate/collection rate, tax amount, total, total price and tax (in words and figures), remarks and drawer. The invoice number of the all-electric invoice is 20 digits, of which, the 1st-2nd digits represent the last two digits of the Gregorian calendar year, the 3rd-4th digits represent the administrative division codes of provinces, autonomous regions, municipalities directly under the Central Government and cities with separate plans, the 5th digit represents the information such as the issuing channels of all-electric invoices, and the 6th-20th digits represent the information such as sequence codes.

In order to meet the individual needs of taxpayers engaged in specific industries, businesses with special taxable behaviors and specific application scenarios (hereinafter referred to as "specific business"), the tax authorities have designed corresponding specific contents in all-electric invoices according to the relevant provisions of current invoice issuance and specific business scenarios. Specific businesses include but are not limited to: rare earth, construction services, passenger transport services, cargo transport services, real estate sales, real estate business leasing services, agricultural product acquisition, photovoltaic acquisition, vehicle and vessel tax collection, self-produced agricultural product sales, differential taxation, etc. When obtaining all-electric invoices, taxpayers in Anhui Province can put forward specific business requirements to the drawer according to the actual business development situation, and the drawer will fill in the information in the invoice remarks and other columns as required in the specific content columns, further standardizing the invoice face content and facilitating the use of taxpayers in Anhui Province. The face of all-electric invoice for a specific business shows the corresponding information according to the specific content, and the words of this business type are displayed in the upper left corner of the face.

3. What are the advantages of using all-electric invoices?

(1) It is more convenient to use tickets.

The application of invoice data is richer. It is convenient for tax authorities to standardize the management of invoice data and lay a data foundation for providing taxpayers with tax declaration and pre-filling services.

The use of invoices meets individual business needs. All-electric invoice breaks the requirement of specific format, increases the data message format of XML to facilitate delivery, while retaining formats such as PDF and OFD, reducing the cost of invoice use and improving the convenience and acquisition of taxpayers’ tickets. All-electric invoice styles are displayed differently according to different businesses to provide taxpayers with better personalized services.

(2) Integration of recording and filing

The tax authorities will make and issue electronic invoice data specifications and national standards, realize the digital circulation of all-electric invoices, and further promote the informationization of accounting and financial management of enterprises and administrative institutions.

Taxpayers in Anhui Province can receive all-electric invoices with the words "special VAT invoice", all-electric invoices with the words "ordinary invoice", special paper VAT invoices (hereinafter referred to as "special paper invoices") and ordinary paper VAT invoices (folding tickets, hereinafter referred to as "ordinary paper invoices") issued by taxpayers in pilot areas through the electronic invoice service platform.

Anhui taxpayers can receive the above-mentioned invoices issued through the electronic invoice service platform through the comprehensive service platform for VAT invoices. In addition, all-electric invoices delivered by the seller by e-mail or QR code can also be obtained.

5. What is the difference between the paper special tickets and paper general tickets issued by taxpayers in Anhui Province through the electronic invoice service platform and those issued by the VAT invoice management system?

Taxpayers in Anhui Province have received paper special tickets and paper general tickets issued through the electronic invoice service platform, and their legal effects, basic uses and basic usage provisions are the same as those of the existing paper special tickets and paper general tickets. Compared with the existing paper-based special tickets and paper-based general tickets, the paper-based special tickets and paper-based general tickets issued by the electronic invoice service platform are different in that after the paper-based special tickets and paper-based general tickets are issued by the electronic invoice service platform, the password area of the paper-based special tickets and paper-based general tickets will no longer display the invoice ciphertext, but the password area will display the 20-digit invoice number given by the electronic invoice service platform and the website of the national VAT invoice inspection platform.

Six, Anhui taxpayers received invoices issued through the electronic invoice service platform, sales returns, billing errors, sales discounts, etc., and the drawer needs to issue red-ink invoices. What should I do?

(1) If the drawee has not confirmed the use and entered the account, the drawer shall fill out the Confirmation Sheet of Red-ink Invoice Information on the electronic invoice service platform (hereinafter referred to as the Confirmation Sheet, see Annex 2) and then issue a red-ink full electric invoice or a red-ink paper invoice without confirmation by the drawee. Among them, the Confirmation Sheet should be consistent with the corresponding blue-ink invoice information.

Example 1: In June 2022, Company I (the taxpayer who issues invoices through the electronic invoice service platform) provided design services for Company J (the taxpayer in Anhui Province). On June X, 2022, Company I has issued an all-electric invoice for Company J with the words "special VAT invoice". On June X, the service was terminated due to objective reasons. Before that, Company J did not confirm the use of the invoice and put it in the account, and Company I had to issue a full red-ink all-electric invoice.

Company I fills in and uploads the Confirmation Sheet through the electronic invoice service platform, without confirmation from Company J. After the system passes the automatic verification, Company I will issue a full red-letter full electric invoice based on the information of the confirmed confirmation sheet.

(2) If the drawee has confirmed the use or entered the account, the drawer shall fill out the Confirmation Sheet through the electronic invoice service platform or the drawee through the comprehensive service platform for value-added tax invoices. After confirmation by the other party, the drawer shall issue a red-ink invoice based on the Confirmation Sheet.

If the drawee has used the invoice for VAT declaration and deduction, it shall temporarily transfer it from the current input tax amount according to the VAT amount listed in the Confirmation Sheet, and after obtaining the red-ink invoice issued by the drawer, it shall be used as the accounting voucher together with the Confirmation Sheet.

Example 2: In June, 2022, Company N (the taxpayer who invoiced through the electronic invoice service platform) sold a batch of toys to Company P (the taxpayer in Anhui Province), and an all-electric invoice with the words "special VAT invoice" was issued, and Company P confirmed its use. In July 2022, it was found that the billing was wrong.

Case 1: The financial personnel of Company N fill out and upload the Confirmation Sheet through the electronic invoice service platform, select the reason and the corresponding blue-ink invoice information, and enter the amount and tax amount.

Case 2: The financial personnel of Company P fill out and upload the Confirmation Sheet through the VAT invoice comprehensive service platform, select the reason and the corresponding blue-ink invoice information, and enter the amount and tax amount. N Company’s financial personnel will issue a red-letter all-electric invoice after completing the confirmation through the electronic invoice service platform within 72 hours.

(3) If all-electric invoices or paper invoices issued by the pilot taxpayers through the electronic invoice service platform have been used to apply for export tax refund or tax refund on behalf of the taxpayers, red-ink invoices are temporarily not allowed to be issued.

7. What types of invoices can Anhui taxpayers obtain for use confirmation? What channels are used for confirmation?

How to do economic work in 2019? CCTV Spring Festival Evening gave us these ideas.

  The Spring Festival passes quickly, and I will go to work the day after tomorrow. How to carry out the work in the new year, CCTV Spring Festival Evening in 2019 may provide us with ideas and answers.

  Watching and talking about the Spring Festival Gala is a popular entertainment for the people during the Spring Festival. Looking at it from another angle, the Spring Festival Evening is also an excellent starting point to interpret China’s economic trends. The Southern Economic Think Tank tries to interpret the economic signals released by CCTV Spring Festival Evening from three perspectives.

  Visual angle 1

  Four high-frequency words in the Spring Festival Evening


  High-frequency words in CCTV Spring Festival Evening in 2019. Finishing Chen Yubing

  Through the incomplete statistics of the host words, program lines, lyrics and other party elements,Science and technology, poverty alleviation, revival, express deliveryIt has become a high-frequency word in the CCTV Spring Festival Evening in 2019.

  As the host of the Spring Festival Evening said, "Technology has changed life from extravagant imagination to real daily life". In the Shenzhen sub-venue, the embodiment of "science and technology" is more obvious, from the host words, program arrangement to stage design, which is very scientific and technological. An international science and technology innovation center with global influence is also one of the five strategic orientations of the central government for Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area where Shenzhen is located.

  In the party, it is more symbolic to realize the first 5G network transmission of 4K ultra-HD content in China:2019 is regarded as the first year of 5G commercialization, and the "digital economy" is expected to leverage 5G to achieve rapid development..

  According to the China internet plus Index Report (2018) released by Tencent Research Institute, the national digital economy in 2017 was 26.70 trillion yuan, up 17.24% year-on-year, accounting for 32.28% of GDP.

  Compared with 4G, the characteristics of 5G, such as wide-area coverage, high connection density, high hotspot capacity, low delay and high reliability, can not only meet people’s daily needs for high-speed networks, but also realize the "Internet of Everything", which opens the door for the large-scale popularization of China’s industrial Internet and urges the transformation of old and new kinetic energy in economic development. In other words, 5G empowerment will comprehensively accelerate the digitalization process of China’s economy and society.

  Getting rid of poverty and becoming rich, and building a well-off society in an all-round way is an important task for the central government to read here, and it is of course fully displayed on the stage of the Spring Festival Evening. The "building canals, greenhouses, green ecological parks and food processing plants" mentioned in the Spring Festival Evening sketch are the important contents of industrial poverty alleviation. In 2019, fighting the tough battle against poverty is not only an important economic task, but also an important political task, which not only contains new opportunities and new space for economic development, but also is a powerful answer for China to face the problem of unbalanced and insufficient development.

  There is a familiar prop on the stage of the Spring Festival Evening — — Fuxing train. During this period in Spring Festival travel rush, hundreds of millions of people returned home by rail. The high-speed train is not only a business card made in China, but also the best embodiment of the speed in China.

  It is reported that this year, the national railway investment in fixed assets has maintained a strong scale, ensuring the production of 6800 kilometers of new lines, including 3200 kilometers of high-speed rail.By the end of 2019, the number of Fuxing vehicles put into operation reached 850.. With the improvement of modern transportation network with more high-speed rail and higher efficiency, the logistics cost is expected to be further reduced, and the flow speed of people, logistics, information flow and capital flow is expected to be further accelerated, making it a lubricant and accelerator for China’s economic development.

  Combing this year’s Spring Festival Evening sketch shows will find an interesting phenomenon:Courier has become the hottest profession, and together with cleaning aunts, advertising practitioners, criminal police, house sales agents, and drivers, it forms a professional group that focuses on the Spring Festival Evening.. The general feature of these occupations is that they are all related to urban life and are front-line participants and builders of modern economy.

  Among them, couriers have more distinctive characteristics of the times due to the rapid development of online consumption.

  Just as hundreds of millions of people return home or travel, the same huge logistics is passed to thousands of households through the hands of countless courier brothers. As a new professional group born with the urbanization process, such as courier brother, how to better improve efficiency and their own income and integrate into urban development will be another important topic for China’s economic development.

  Angle of view 2

  Selection of three Spring Festival Gala venues

  The selection of three sub-venues in the Spring Festival Gala is also very interesting.

  From an economic point of view, tea in Jinggangshan, cars in Changchun and robots in Shenzhen respectively represent three industrial forms: traditional agriculture, modern manufacturing and intelligent manufacturing.. Three cities and three kinds of products from the old revolutionary base area in central China, the heavy industry base in northeast China and the southeast coast appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Evening at the same time, which itself is a microcosm of China’s industrial economy.

  This arrangement supports the basic pattern of the whole Spring Festival Evening in the expression of China’s economic stories. The program arrangement of the three sub-venues has strengthened this point.

  The song and dance "Time No.1" in Changchun FAW Branch of Jilin Province has become an all-round exhibition of China FAW products. The deformed robot modified by FAW cars and the world’s largest indoor remote-controlled aircraft model show the great ambition of the old industrial base to speed up the optimization and upgrading of the economic structure.

  In 2016, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader visited Shenshan Village, Mao Ping Township, Jinggangshan City, which appeared in the Jinggangshan Sub-venue, and now it has been lifted out of poverty together with six other administrative villages in the township. The Central Economic Work Conference proposed that efforts should be made to increase the supply of high-quality green agricultural products. Jinggang Mountain is green, and it is one of the famous teas in Jiangxi Province. The song and dance "Please Tea Song" is all in full of green, from lyrics to costumes and stage design, full of tea fragrance, which is equivalent to using the super IP of Spring Festival Evening to make a favorite product promotion.

  The song and dance "Fantasy of Youth" in Shenzhen Branch Hall has become a stage for robots and flexible screens, which fully reflects the strong strength and strong enterprising spirit of Shenzhen and even Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area in the fields of electronic information, intelligent manufacturing and other industries.

  Compared with the first two venues, innovation is the most distinctive theme of Shenzhen Sub-venue in terms of stage layout, technical means of signal output and program presentation, which fully embodies the mission of this special zone city in "promoting the deep integration of advanced manufacturing and modern service industries and unswervingly building a manufacturing power".

  The appearance of three sub-venues in succession fully embodies the development characteristics of regional economy and skillfully expounds the different aspects of China’s economic development.

  At the same time, the seamless connection of the three sub-venues has a special symbolic meaning — —The development between different regions and different economic forms is by no means separated from each other..The development of the western region, the overall revitalization of the Northeast, the rise of the central region and the pioneering development of the eastern region are all indispensable and important contents for the country to achieve coordinated regional development. How to implement these national strategies and promote a more adequate and coordinated development of the national economy is a major point of view for China’s economy in 2019.

  Opportunities for the sinking of the consumer market

  Outside the stage, the list of sponsors of the Spring Festival Gala is an excellent material for a glimpse of China’s economic hotspots.

  From Kangbas and Seagull Clocks in the 1980s to Chinese Bicycles, National pits, Wuliangye and other wine brands in the 1990s, Spring Festival Evening advertisements, as a "barometer of China economy", have reflected the economic changes in China for more than 30 years. It has become a true portrayal of the continuous upgrading of the domestic consumer market and the continuous enrichment of people’s living standards.

  In the CCTV Spring Festival Evening in 2019, Tik Tok, Aauto Quicker and Baidu occupied an important position in extending the content sharing of the Spring Festival Evening with their platform advantages. What attracts people’s attention is that Pinduoduo, who was influenced by negative news, became the sponsor of the Spring Festival Gala.

  Behind this round of sponsor replacement, mobile phones have become the absolute protagonist of network use. According to the 42nd Statistical Report on Internet Development in China, as of June 2018, the number of Internet users in China was 802 million, including 788 million mobile phone users, accounting for 98.3% of Internet users from 97.5% in 2017.

  Compared with Tik Tok and Aauto Quicker, the economic significance of Pinduoduo’s appearance on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala is even more extraordinary.

  The Central Economic Work Conference regards "promoting the formation of a strong domestic market" as an important content of economic work in 2019, and proposes to strive to meet the final demand, improve product quality, and accelerate the development of service industries such as education, child care, pension, medical care, culture and tourism.

  Pinduoduo’s becoming a sponsor of the Spring Festival Evening not only shows that the online shopping field is still in fierce competition, but also shows that the consumer market is further enriched and the channels are sinking.

  With the implementation of strategies such as rural revitalization and the adjustment of urban and rural economic structure towards a more coordinated pattern, the consumer markets in first-tier cities, third-and fourth-tier cities and even rural areas are rapidly opening up, and the upward channels of agricultural products are gradually getting through. These factors have provided unprecedented market space for new e-commerce companies like Pinduoduo.

  The emergence of this phenomenon is supported by clear data.

  Previously, the National Bureau of Statistics disclosed when analyzing the economic operation in 2018.In 2018, the per capita consumption expenditure of urban residents in China was 26,112 yuan, a nominal increase of 6.8%, 0.9 percentage points faster than the previous year; The per capita consumption expenditure of rural residents was 12,124 yuan, a nominal increase of 10.7%, 2.6 percentage points faster than the previous year..

  In other words, the rapid growth of rural consumption and the gradual narrowing of the gap between urban and rural consumption have become new features of economic development. At present, the economy is facing downward pressure, and the rapid development of consumption market, especially in non-first-tier towns and rural areas, is even more critical to economic development.

  The rapid development of new e-commerce such as Pinduoduo also means that the online shopping platform has completed the sinking of the "last mile" of the domestic rural terminal market, which means the rapid development of the digital economy in the consumer field. Accompanied by this, it is the further opening and integration of urban and rural consumer markets, and with the steady progress of building a well-off society in an all-round way, a huge market with a scale of 1.4 billion people with more integrity, coordination and comprehensive digitalization is taking shape.

  In fact, regardless of urban and rural areas, there is still huge market space in many consumer areas. The "health care products for the elderly" suspected of selling fakes in "My son is coming" is both a legal issue and an economic issue — — As China enters an aging society, the consumption market of goods and services for the elderly needs to be improved urgently, and the improvement of its quantity and quality is also the key to promoting endogenous economic growth through consumption. People’s pursuit of a better life is also a great opportunity for China’s economy.

Guangdong Provincial Communications Department: Didi has always refused data access and cannot effectively target it.

Traffic law enforcement was once unable to effectively target

Cheng Xinghuan, a reporter from Jinyang. com, reported: On the Guangdong Minsheng Hotline today (28th), Wang Fumin, deputy director of Guangdong Province, revealed that at present, more than 20 online car rental platforms have obtained business licenses in Guangdong Province, and 52,260 online taxi driver’s licenses and 50,138 online taxi transportation licenses have been issued, accounting for 17.7% and 30% of the national total respectively, ranking first in the country. However, in the management of online car, Didi Chuxing, a monopoly, has refused to accept data access for supervision, both in Guangdong and in the whole country.

However, for the rapid development of network cars, the supervision of the industry has lagged behind, especially in Yueqing, Wenzhou. On the evening of 26th, Guangdong Provincial Communications Department, Guangzhou Municipal Communications Commission, Shenzhen Municipal Communications Commission and Dongguan Transportation Bureau talked about Didi respectively. In Shenzhen, according to the network car data transmitted by Didi Platform to the government supervision platform (the ride data has not been transmitted), there are still nearly 5,000 drivers and nearly 2,000 vehicles in the platform that have not obtained the operating documents. In Dongguan, there are 19,492 drivers (including 15,584 drivers who obtained the taxi qualification certificate before November 2016), and only 5,204 vehicles have obtained the network car transportation certificate. However, Didi Platform has more than 30,000 drivers and more than 20,000 vehicles providing online car service in Dongguan.

However, even if the government departments intervened early, Didi still "went its own way". In the notification of the interview in Dongguan, the rectification measures promised by Didi Company have not been effectively implemented. For example, it promised not to distribute orders to non-Dongguan license plate vehicles from June, but some citizens still reported that non-Dongguan license plate vehicles would take orders at night. In this year, Dongguan investigated and dealt with 292 cases of illegal network car service, including 61 cases of illegal network car service provided by Didi Company. This number is not worth mentioning compared with the operation of nearly 10,000 driving without a license and 15,000 unlicensed vehicles.

As to why government departments can’t supervise these "black cars", Wang Fumin said that Didi refused to access data to government departments for supervision not only in Guangdong, but also in the whole country, and refused to provide detailed data on drivers and operating vehicles, so it was impossible to carry out targeted law enforcement and could only rely on the original containment. After the rectification of Didi at the end of September, all management departments will obtain the complete data uploaded by Didi, and then effectively retreat, which is expected to be completed before the end of the year.

In addition, after the Wenzhou Yueqing hitchhiking case, Wang Fumin predicted that the next step would be to introduce a policy to put aside the customer service and directly connect with the public security organs.

Forty years of agitation, the past, present and future of SAIC Volkswagen

It is always difficult for people to remember the second and third, but they can always remember the first clearly.

You may forget what it feels like to hug the opposite sex for the second time, but you must remember the throbbing of the first hug. Just like you may not remember the second car you took and drove, but you are impressed with the first car.

So, do you remember what was the first car you sat in and drove? I believe most people’s answer is only three words:.

People who came from the era of "owning Santana and traveling all over the world are not afraid" always have a memory in their minds, that is, the square front, the VW logo carved on the plastic grille and the classic "Shanghai Volkswagen" tail logo …

When the time train galloped past forty platforms, the meaning of "SAIC Volkswagen" was very different for China automobile industry and even everyone. During these forty years, SAIC-Volkswagen witnessed the rise of China’s automobile industry and the great achievements of reform and opening up. At the same time, it also gained its own prosperity as the first joint venture automobile company in China.

Yesterday, SAIC Volkswagen opened a neon for the China auto market.

Let’s temporarily adjust the time back to the time node that crossed in the 1970s and 1980s.

At that time, there were not many small cars running in China, except for Beijing 212 and Shanghai brand cars. Old friends who came from that era probably have the impression that there are always several dark green 212 cars and several white or blue-green Shanghai cars parked in the tree-lined government compound.

In that era when the global automobile industry entered prosperity, China automobile industry can still be described as "barren".

After the tide of reform and opening up came, the state decided to vigorously develop the automobile industry. So in 1978, China made initial contact with German audi ag. After many arguments, in 1984, Shanghai Car Factory and German Volkswagen formally signed the joint venture and cooperation regulations, and the two sides jointly established Shanghai Volkswagen Co., Ltd.

The first car introduced into China market by Shanghai Volkswagen Joint Venture Company is the "Santana" which will be popular all over the country in the next 30 years. However, as the first joint venture car in China, Santana’s landing road is also quite tortuous.

China in the 1980s did not have a modern automobile industry base. Therefore, the first batch of Santana cars launched by Shanghai Volkswagen for the China market can only be produced by CKD parts imported and assembled. On the assembly line, the workers of Shanghai Volkswagen can only assemble the whole vehicle by hand.

In fact, while bringing Santana, Shanghai Volkswagen also shoulders an important mission, which is to bring advanced production technology and manufacturing technology of western automobile industry to China after the establishment of the factory. In other words, Shanghai Volkswagen shoulders the responsibility of "starter" of China Hyundai Motor Industry.

After a period of "extensive production", Shanghai Volkswagen invited experts from German Volkswagen to Shanghai for guidance in order to improve production capacity and efficiency, and introduced international manufacturing standards and production equipment. Through the intensive production line upgrade, Shanghai Volkswagen has increased the annual production scale of Santana to more than 50,000 vehicles in just six years. However, at this time, Shanghai Volkswagen still lags behind the development goal of "within 7 years, the localization rate of Santana will exceed 80%".

Then, after establishing the modern production process and manufacturing technology, the next plan of Shanghai Volkswagen is to establish a complete automobile supporting supply chain industry in China based on Santana.

In the TV series Blossoms Shanghai, No.120 Jinxian Road left an impression on the audience.

In reality, No.120 Jinxian Road is the original site of Shanghai Piston Factory. When Shanghai Volkswagen was determined to establish a modern automobile supply chain system, Shanghai Piston Factory signed a technology license transfer contract with German Kolbenschmidt Co., Ltd. to introduce piston manufacturing technology to purchase key manufacturing planes and test equipment.

Starting from the piston factory, Shanghai Volkswagen has also established a large number of spare parts suppliers since the 1990s, and established quality standards in China that meet German Volkswagen and international standards. At this point, China automobile supply chain industry has also entered a stage of prosperity and development.

It can be said that Shanghai Volkswagen, which started in the 1980s, not only brought brand-new Santana cars to the China market, but also brought a brand-new beginning to the automobile industry in this ancient land.

This joint venture car company is the first to introduce foreign capital, global standards and advanced manufacturing systems into China’s automobile industry. To some extent, the development history of Shanghai Volkswagen is the development history of China automobile industry marketization. As a pioneer of the whole industry, Shanghai Volkswagen is worthy of the title of "industry beacon".

Today, SAIC Volkswagen sets an industry benchmark with tens of millions of trust.

Today, the production and sales scale of SAIC Volkswagen has already exceeded 10 million, and it has become the first passenger car enterprise in China with a cumulative output exceeding 28 million. 40 years, 28 million, these data reflect the stable and prosperous development of SAIC Volkswagen.

Today, SAIC Volkswagen has three brands, Volkswagen, Audi and Skoda, and continues to play a leading role as a joint venture car company with an annual sales of one million. Of course, the achievements made by SAIC-Volkswagen in the past 40 years are not only remarkable achievements in the market.

More importantly, SAIC Volkswagen has always created a new situation in the automobile industry.

If we say that during the period from the 1980s to the 1990s, SAIC-Volkswagen was introducing advanced technologies from the western automobile industry to help China’s modern automobile industry grow sturdily; Then, during the period from 2000 to 2000, SAIC Volkswagen made more wonderful contributions to the automobile industry with its own progress.

Since the Santana 2000 project at the beginning of the new century, SAIC-Volkswagen has started the road of independent research based on the global technical and design advantages of Volkswagen and the actual demand of China local market. As the first joint venture car company in China, SAIC Volkswagen has also become the first joint venture car company in China to independently develop new models.

When SAIC Volkswagen has the tradition of independent research, it has brought many refreshing products.

Volkswagen, through its insight into the needs of domestic household consumers, has created a large-space body and brought a quality experience to a total of 5 million home users; Volkswagen, on the other hand, deeply observes the young user groups and has become a travel partner of more and more young people with high value built by face value and performance; Volkswagen, as a large-size SUV with superior volume, is deeply favored by domestic middle and high-end users, and has gone abroad to dominate the North American market under the name of Atlas.

In fact, SAIC Volkswagen has many self-developed models, such as today’s L Pro, which not only brings a new experience to domestic consumers. More importantly, this new car pioneered the in-depth cooperation between SAIC Volkswagen and DJI, a China science and technology enterprise, and helped SAIC Volkswagen, which has a history of 40 years, formally enter the intelligent era with its intelligent performance comparable to that of new forces.

"Innovation" is the best summary of SAIC Volkswagen today.

From self-developed models to the development of advanced intelligent technology, SAIC Volkswagen has been at the forefront of the times every time. Undoubtedly, with the spirit of innovation as the basis of enterprise development, SAIC Volkswagen will definitely open up a new situation in the future.

What will the future of SAIC Volkswagen look like in 2040?

On the 40th anniversary of the establishment of SAIC Volkswagen, SAIC Motor Group, which came from Shanghai Car Factory step by step, signed an extended joint venture agreement with audi ag. According to the agreement, the joint venture period of SAIC Volkswagen will be extended for another 15 years to 2040.

The decision of the two parties to the joint venture also directly opened the door to the future for SAIC Volkswagen. We can’t help wondering what kind of situation SAIC Volkswagen will create when the era of intelligence and electrification comes.

The pulse of the times is constantly beating, and SAIC Volkswagen is always moving forward. As early as 2021, when, and ID.3 slowly drove off the production line of Anting MEB factory, SAIC Volkswagen opened the prelude to the future.

It can be seen that in the face of the surging intelligent electric era, SAIC Volkswagen has actively planned the enterprise transformation layout. At the same time, the three major ID. series models built on MEB platform have stood firm in the joint venture camp. In November, SAIC Volkswagen ID.3 delivered more than 14,000 new cars and became the king of pure electricity sales among joint venture brands.

When SAIC Volkswagen’s new energy pace is getting faster and faster, this joint venture car company has also begun to think about a "philosophical question" that all traditional car companies must consider-facing the future, should we take the new energy route or keep the fuel route?

SAIC Volkswagen, which has developed for 40 years, has already accumulated a strong system strength, and the answer it brings is "all want". In the field of fuel vehicles, SAIC Volkswagen is committed to promoting environmental protection, high efficiency and intelligence of fuel vehicles. After popularizing more efficient 300TSI power, SAIC-Volkswagen also launched the strategy of combining oil with electricity. The Volkswagen Tiguan L Pro, which has the same intelligent performance as the smart electric model, has also become a popular model at present.

Based on the sales support of fuel vehicles, SAIC Volkswagen can also explore the new energy field more quickly. In November 2024, SAIC Volkswagen launched a brand-new luxury brand AUDI on the basis of Audi, and made its debut in the first concept car. After starting the alphabet, SAIC Volkswagen will further promote the transformation of high-end new energy.

It is reported that AUDI’s first new car, AUDI E, was designed by Audi’s German team. At the same time, the core three electrical components and intelligent system of this car came from SAIC Volkswagen’s supply chain system. In the close cooperation between SAIC and Volkswagen, we believe that the brand-new AUDI brand can create intelligent electrification products with strong strength for China users.

Of course, SAIC Volkswagen also showed a faster speed.

In 2025, AUDI E, the first model of the new brand, will be delivered in mass production. At the same time, within three years, the AUDI brand under SAIC Volkswagen also plans to launch three electric vehicles, covering the B-class market and the C-class market, and quickly seize the high-end smart power camp highland.

Conclusion:

?

From the time when the first Santana was produced by knocking, to the time when Pro/ Tiguan L Pro and other models were rolled off the assembly line from a clean and tidy smart factory, SAIC Volkswagen took 40 years to set countless firsts in the history of China automobile industry.

I believe that many friends’ love for SAIC Volkswagen comes from their feelings. But what the author wants to say is that when we get out of the feelings of the years and the memories of the past, SAIC Volkswagen has always been a trendsetter standing on the top of the wave.

Nowadays, what SAIC Volkswagen is facing is not only the glory of the past forty years, but also the opportunity of the next fifteen years and the next fifty years. We are also willing to believe that in the next era, SAIC Volkswagen will bring us more touches and more surprises.
