[XCAR weekend car smell original]

　　It’s the weekend again, and the news of the new weekend car of Aika Automobile has arrived as scheduled. This week, there are a number of new cars on the market in China, among which the new BMW X5, Changan Mazda CX-8 and other models are undoubtedly the most important. In addition, a number of annual redesigned products have officially met with consumers. Without gossiping, let’s review the key events in the car circle this week.

　　▼ New BMW X5

　　On December 7, 2018, the new BMW X5 was officially launched for sale, with a price range of 809,900-909,900 yuan. As the fourth generation model in the family, the brand-new BMW X5, which adopts the new family design language, is built on the CLAR platform, and the wheelbase is lengthened by 42mm. XDrive40i, which was launched in advance, is equipped with B58 series 3.0T inline six-cylinder turbocharged engine.

　　In terms of styling, the new BMW X5 adopts a new family-style design style, and the size of the air intake grille with classic kidney shape is further increased, and the edges and corners are more distinct. This not only improves the recognition of the front face, but also makes its overall shape look like a smaller BMW X7. In addition, another highlight of the new car is that it is equipped with intelligent laser headlights. The blue "X" structure inside is very eye-catching, and the irradiation range of the high beam can reach 500m m.

　　Coming to the side of the car body, the new car adopts the design of double waistline, in which the upper waistline gradually rises from the position of the rear door, which outlines the shoulders quite clearly, and the ends of the lines merge with the taillights. The three-dimensional effect of the tail is further strengthened by the use of lines. After all the taillights with LED light sources are lit, the actual effect is still very eye-catching.

　　The original criticized BMW interior design has been greatly improved on the new BMW X5 model, following the principle of "driver-centered", and the center console of the new car is biased towards the driver’s side as a whole. The equipped 12.3-inch full LCD instrument panel and large-size central control LCD screen add a lot to the degree of technology in the car. The electronic lever and iDrive knob are also made of crystal material, which looks beautiful, and the inside of the lever is marked with an "X" logo.

　　It is worth mentioning that the new iDrive 7.0 system is also applied to the new BMW X5 model for the first time. Compared with the 6.0 version, the new version is more intelligent and personalized. In addition to supporting touch operation, voice control and gesture operation, the system operation interface can be changed according to the owner’s preference. In addition, the 7.0 version also realizes the upgrade of mobile phone access to car firmware, so users do not need to go to the 4S shop for this purpose.

　　In the power system, the new BMW X5 based on CLAR platform is equipped with B58 series 3.0T inline six-cylinder turbocharged engine, with the maximum output of 250kW(340Ps) and the peak torque of 450Nm. The transmission part is matched with an 8-speed automatic gearbox. In addition, the new car also comes standard with xDrive four-wheel drive system and optional electronic limited slip differential.

　　Editor’s comment:Compared with the old models, the new BMW X5 is fully upgraded from the inside out. The new family design language, the addition of powerful scientific and technological configuration and the improvement of off-road ability all make us set our sights on the new BMW X5. As far as the product itself is concerned, the brand-new BMW X5, whose competitiveness has been comprehensively improved, has good strength, but can it continue to dominate the luxury medium and large SUV market after listing? We will wait and see.

　　▼ Changan Mazda CX-8

　　On December 7, 2018, Changan Mazda CX-8, positioned as a medium and large SUV, was officially launched, with a price range of 258,800-330,800 yuan. The new car adopts the latest soul-moving design language, which shows excellent visual effects. In addition, the new car is equipped with a 2.5L naturally aspirated engine, and its power performance is not weak at all.

　　In terms of appearance, the new car is basically the same as the overseas version, adopting the latest design style of the family, and the side of the car body adopts double waistline design. The rim adopts a multi-spoke shape, which makes its overall shape look more sporty. In addition, the headlight group of the new car is a full LED light source with exquisite internal structure, and the visual effect is very eye-catching when it is lit at night. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4955/1842/1733mm and the wheelbase is 2930mm respectively.

　　In terms of configuration, the new car will be equipped with front and rear penetrating side airbags, main/co-pilot airbags and side airbags, front and rear parking radars, front pre-tensioned seat belts, reversing images, ramp start assistance, tire pressure monitoring, etc., which is very cost-effective. In terms of power, the new car will be equipped with a 2.5L Chuangchi Blue Sky series engine with a maximum output of 141kW(192Ps). The transmission part is expected to match the 6-speed automatic gearbox, and the new car will also provide a four-wheel drive system for consumers to choose from.

　　Editor’s comment:Mazda series models attract consumers’ attention because of their excellent design and efficient power. The arrival of CX-8 models will further enrich the family product matrix, and the design of 7-seat layout can better meet the travel needs of consumers.

　　▼ Cadillac XT4 new model

　　A few days ago, we learned from the official that Cadillac XT4 has added two new models, namely, the 28T leading model and the 28T sports leading model, with the prices of 289.7 and 294,700 yuan respectively.

　　In terms of styling, the new car adopts a family-style styling language, and is equipped with a representative pentagonal air intake grille and a tearful headlight group. In terms of the tail, the tail design of the new car is relatively compact, and the classic in-line taillight design echoes the headlights, which is particularly refreshing.

　　The interior part is different from the Cadillac XT5. The Cadillac XT4 with a new interior design style adopts a three-spoke multi-function steering wheel, and the central control LCD screen above the center console will be equipped with the latest CUE multimedia system. Users can surf the Internet through 4G and download the required applications in the stores in the system.

　　The positioning of the leading (two-wheel drive) products listed this time is higher than that of the luxury (two-wheel drive) products. Compared with the latter, the overall price of the new car is 10,000 yuan higher, but the Bose brand Premium audio system with 13 speakers is added, and the rest are the same.

　　In the power part, the new car is equipped with a new 2.0T turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 177kW(241Ps) and a peak torque of 350Nm. The transmission part is matched with the 9-speed automatic manual transmission. In addition, four driving modes are provided, namely comfort, four-wheel drive, sports and anti-skid.

　　Editor’s comment:The introduction of new models fills the gap between existing models, makes the configuration differences between different models more stable and can better meet the needs of consumers.

　　Zhang Xingwang CSI Taurus　

　　On the evening of July 3rd, Celeste issued a supplementary announcement on the purchase of assets, saying that Celeste Automobile, a holding subsidiary, plans to acquire the assets of Huawei’s Jiejie trademark and other targets for 2.5 billion yuan. After evaluation, the market value of the underlying assets is 10.233 billion yuan. In other words, in terms of valuation, it is equivalent to Huawei selling the underlying assets such as the border trademark to Cyrus at a discount of about 2.4%.　

　　Analysts believe that Wen Jie is a brand supported by Huawei, and this brand transfer shows Huawei’s sincerity. Huawei has repeatedly publicly stated that it will not build cars and sell a series of trademarks, which is Huawei’s strategic business policy, that is, to be a supplier of incremental parts for automobiles. At the same time, Huawei set up a company this year, focusing on the intelligent driving system and incremental parts business of intelligent networked vehicles. Recently, Huawei transferred trademarks such as Wen Jie, Xiang Jie and Zhi Jie to Zhixuan car partners in order to dispel the concerns of car partners about Huawei’s possible car construction.　　

　　Definitely don’t build a car　　

　　Wenjie is an automobile brand launched by Huawei and Celes by adopting the smart car selection model. This model is a cooperative model in which Huawei deeply participates in the definition, design, research and development, sales and other links. The two sides launched the M5 in December 2021 and the M7 in July 2022, but the sales were tepid. Until September 2023, after the launch of the new M7, the sales were strong, which made Huawei’s smart car selection model "out of the circle". Since then, the smart car selection mode has been upgraded to HarmonyOS Zhixing.　

　　In the first half of this year, HarmonyOS Zhixing delivered a total of 194,207 vehicles, ranking first in China’s new power brand sales. From the perspective of the industry, in June 2024, the sales volume of the industry exceeded 42,000. The new M7 delivered 18,493 vehicles in June, and the cumulative sales in the first half of the year exceeded 110,000 vehicles, ranking first in China’s new power model and second in luxury model. The sales volume of M9 reached a new high. In June, it delivered 17,241 vehicles, with a total of over 100,000 vehicles, ranking first in domestic sales of vehicles with a price of over 500,000 yuan.　

　　Then, why does Huawei sell related trademarks at the high-light moment of the brand? Pan Helin, a member of the Committee of Experts on Information and Communication Economy of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, told the reporter of china securities journal CSI Taurus that Huawei’s goal is very clear, and it has repeatedly stressed that it is to practice this strategic management policy by not making cars and selling trademarks. In the automotive field in the future, Huawei will focus on intelligent solutions.　

　　On March 31, 2023, Xu Zhijun, the rotating chairman of Huawei, made it clear: "Huawei didn’t build a car, nor did it have any brand of car."　

　　Pan Helin believes that Huawei’s transfer of the brand is to prevent the car dealers and Huawei brands from being fully bound. Analysts said, "The brand influence of Wenjie series is more than 2.5 billion yuan. This brand transfer shows Huawei’s sincerity."　

　　On the evening of July 3, Cyrus announced that the market value of the underlying assets such as the border trademark was 10.233 billion yuan after evaluation.　　

　　Clarify the boundary of smart car selection　　

　　Huawei established BU, a smart car solution, in May 2019. Huawei’s 2023 annual report shows that the company has unswervingly and continuously increased its R&D investment. Since the establishment of BU, a smart car solution, the accumulated R&D investment has exceeded 30 billion yuan.　

　　It is understood that Huawei cooperates with car companies in three modes: parts supply mode, solution mode and intelligent car selection. Among them, the car companies that cooperate with the intelligent car selection model are Cyrus, Chery, BAIC and JAC. This is the most in-depth mode of cooperation with Huawei among the three modes.　

　　Because Sailis is the first partner of the smart car selection model, and the series launched by both parties are selling well, Sailis has received high attention. On June 18th, the market value of Cyrus soared to 151.5 billion yuan, exceeding the ideal, ranking first in the market value of domestic new force car companies.　

　　Will Huawei’s cooperation with Cyrus be affected after it sells trademarks such as Wen Jie? On the evening of July 2, Huawei responded to the reporter’s statement that after Huawei transferred a series of trademarks such as Wen Jie to Celeste, it would continue to support Celeste to build and sell Wen Jie. Huawei has always insisted on not building cars, but using the leading intelligent networked car technology to continue to help car companies build and sell good cars.　

　　According to the reporter’s understanding, the current cooperation mode between Huawei and Cyrus is not affected, and the two sides also signed the Agreement on Further Deepening Joint Business Cooperation.　

　　In fact, Huawei not only transferred a series of trademarks such as Wenjie, but before that, Huawei also transferred trademarks such as Xiangjie and Zhijie to relevant smart car selection partners.　

　　In May 2024, Tianyancha showed that Huawei transferred its registered trademark of "Enjoy the World" to Beijing New Energy Automobile Co., Ltd. The trademark was applied by Huawei in May 2023 and registered in November. At the beginning of June, 2024, Tianyancha showed that Huawei transferred two registered "Zhijie" trademarks of transportation tools to Chery Automobile Co., Ltd.　

　　An auto industry veteran told reporters that the smart car selection model is deeply bound to Huawei, and Huawei leads the sales. Consumers buy brand cars such as Wenjie, Zhijie or the upcoming enjoyment world, mainly because consumers recognize Huawei brands and technologies.　

　　Pan Helin believes that since Huawei is a supplier, it can’t favor one over the other. Its transfer of series trademarks and equal treatment of smart car partners are conducive to determining Huawei’s role as a supplier of automotive incremental parts.　

　　Some analysts said that after the trademark transfer, the boundary of Huawei’s HarmonyOS Zhixing/Zhixuan model became clearer, and Huawei further indicated that it would not build cars, but use its own advantages to help car companies build and sell good cars. Huawei’s cooperation with other smart partners will not be affected.　　

　　Create an electric intelligent open platform　　

　　In November 2023, Huawei and Changan Automobile signed the Memorandum of Investment Cooperation. According to the memorandum, Huawei intends to integrate the core technologies and resources of smart car solutions business into the new company, and Changan Automobile and related parties will be interested in investing in the company. At that time, a person familiar with the matter told reporters that Huawei hoped to build an electric intelligent open platform with the participation of the automobile industry.　

　　Huawei hopes that more auto industry partners will invest in this new company. In November 2023, Yu Chengdong, managing director of Huawei and chairman of BU, a smart car solution, publicly stated that Huawei had sent an invitation to invest in a new company to its smart car model partners and hoped that FAW would join.　

　　In January this year, Shenzhen Yinwang Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. was established, which is wholly owned by Huawei and is a new company established by Huawei Car BU.　

　　On July 4, the reporter learned that in order to further deepen the all-round cooperation with Huawei, Sailis is actively planning to participate in strategic investment and cooperation.　

　　When Huawei signed a memorandum with Changan Automobile, Yu Chengdong said, "We always think that China needs to build an electric intelligent open platform with the participation of the automobile industry, an open platform with a’ locomotive’. We deepen cooperation with Changan, and at the same time, we will work together with more strategic partner car companies to continuously explore new models of openness and win-win, and jointly seize the opportunity of electrification and intelligent transformation of the automobile industry. "

　　When you go out to play during the holidays, many people will send beautiful pictures in the circle of friends and add location positioning to "punch in", but what you didn’t expect is that this information may be false. Recently, some media exposed the news that "the lowest 10 yuan can modify the friend circle positioning service". According to the reporter’s investigation, some merchants on the e-commerce platform provide virtual positioning and photo service. Experts suggest that this kind of behavior not only has many security risks, but also may be suspected of breaking the law, so consumers should use it with caution.

　　10 yuan modifies the orientation of friends circle.

　　Buy software that can be used unlimited times.

　　The reporter searched on a well-known e-commerce platform and found that some sellers’ display pages read advertisements with the words "friends circle location", "anywhere in the world" and "pictures and videos are acceptable", while the prices for providing positioning modification services ranged from 10 yuan to 100 yuan, and some sellers sold nearly 2,000 copies a month. The reporter tried to place orders with multiple merchants and found that there are three main forms to modify the friend circle positioning service: single manual delivery, unlimited operation of software, and permanent use of hardware.

　　Among them, only 10 yuan and 20 yuan are needed for a single forwarding, and users need to edit the content of their friends circle first, and set it to "only visible to themselves" to tell the seller the required geographical location, and the seller will provide a QR code. After scanning, the user will allow the seller to remotely log in to his WeChat account and modify the location to post friends circle. A seller told reporters that after logging in, you can’t see the information column of the user’s friend list, but you can see all the circle of friends that the user posted before. Another seller directly asked the reporter for the account number and password to log in.

　　After the reporter raised security concerns, the seller recommended to buy plug-in software, which is more expensive, generally around 100 yuan. Users can download the APP and follow the tutorial sent by the seller, so they can modify the circle of friends indefinitely. At present, there are many such softwares on the market. In addition, users can also buy a hardware device like a charging head, which can directly change the position of the mobile phone by plugging it in, and then modify the positioning of any software on the mobile phone.

　　In addition to this virtual location service, some sellers also provide "high-end life photos of friends circle" materials, and play advertisements such as weekly updates and photos taken by professional photographers. It can be seen that the "fine decoration" of friends circle has now become a business.

　　The risk of privacy disclosure is high.

　　Sellers may be involved in "unfair competition"

　　Insiders pointed out that this kind of virtual positioning technology is not complicated, which is similar to providing a GPS sensor and changing the way for software to obtain location information from the GPS sensor that comes with the mobile phone. However, users will face great security risks, and service providers may also be suspected of committing crimes.

　　First of all, authorizing the seller to send a circle of friends will reveal personal privacy on the one hand, and on the other hand, the QR code with unknown sources is likely to read personal account information, causing property security risks.

　　In the investigation, the reporter found that some sellers also specifically indicated "for high-end Wechat business service". Party Xiaolin, a lawyer of Beijing Sanyou Intellectual Property Agency Co., Ltd., pointed out that Wechat business and purchasing groups are likely to be the main customer groups who pay for virtual location services. "There may be cases where the release is located abroad to prove that the goods sold are genuine foreign products, but in fact they are selling fakes and deceiving consumers."

　　Dang Xiaolin said that if the "high-end photos of life" and virtual positioning services provided by sellers on the e-commerce platform are used for commercial promotion and false publicity, it is suspected of violating the relevant provisions of the Anti-Unfair Competition Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Advertising Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC). Once it constitutes unfair competition or false publicity, service providers and Wechat business Daigou will face administrative penalties such as fines and civil liabilities such as stopping infringement and compensating losses.

　　Wechat response

　　Require the e-commerce platform to remove related services.

　　In this regard, WeChat Security Center issued a public response through Tencent Technology account on the 11th, saying that virtual positioning is a plug-in developed by group control technology, which is usually packaged as a "micro-marketing" artifact, and the use of plug-ins is a clear violation. In response, the WeChat team said that this plug-in software not only destroyed the ecological balance and normal operation of the WeChat platform, but also provided convenient conditions for malicious marketing behavior and caused harassment to normal users.

　　The WeChat team said that since the beginning of this year, WeChat has been strengthening the crackdown on WeChat plug-in software, focusing on governance, and has repeatedly publicized relevant crackdowns. For all accounts that have been complained by users and verified as using plug-ins, WeChat will impose penalties such as restricting functions (adding friends, greeting people nearby, etc.) and restricting login according to the relevant national laws and regulations, Tencent WeChat Software License and Service Agreement and WeChat Personal Account Usage Specification, and according to the degree of violation. For those who violate the rules for many times, the punishment will be aggravated.

　　In addition, the WeChat team also called on users not to use such plug-in services, and not to give their WeChat accounts, passwords and verification codes to strangers, so as not to bring many risks such as privacy and property security. According to Xinhua News Agency

In the field of chemical investment, soda ash is an important basic chemical raw material, and its price fluctuation has a significant impact on the whole industry. Analyzing the reasons for the decline in the value of soda ash will not only help investors understand the market dynamics, but also provide valuable enlightenment for chemical investment.

First of all, the relationship between supply and demand is one of the core factors affecting the price of soda ash. When the supply of soda ash in the market increases and the demand is relatively stable or decreasing, the price often falls. For example, in recent years, with the improvement of domestic soda production technology and the expansion of production capacity, the supply has increased significantly. At the same time, influenced by the global economic slowdown and environmental protection policies, the demand growth of soda ash slowed down, which led to the imbalance between supply and demand and the price fell.

Secondly, the change of raw material cost is also an important factor affecting the price of soda ash. The main raw materials of soda ash include limestone, salt and ammonia. If the prices of these raw materials fall, the production cost of soda ash will be reduced, which may lead to a decline in the price of soda ash. For example, in recent years, with the development of limestone and salt resources in China, the prices of these raw materials have declined, which has further affected the market price of soda ash.

In addition, changes in the macroeconomic environment will also have an impact on the price of soda ash. The fluctuation of economic cycle, the change of monetary policy and the change of international trade situation may affect the demand and price of soda ash. For example, in the global economic downturn, industrial production activities have decreased, the demand for soda ash has declined, and the price has also fallen.

In order to show the influence of these factors on soda ash price more intuitively, the following table lists the changes of soda ash price and main influencing factors in recent years:

As can be seen from the table, with the increase of supply, the decline of raw material prices and the deterioration of macroeconomic environment, the price of soda ash shows a downward trend year by year.

For chemical investors, it is of great significance to analyze the reasons for the decline in the value of soda ash. First of all, investors should pay close attention to the changes in the relationship between supply and demand and adjust their investment strategies in time. Secondly, the fluctuation of raw material cost should also be the focus of investors’ attention. By analyzing the dynamics of raw material market, the price trend of soda ash can be predicted more accurately. Finally, the changes in the macroeconomic environment cannot be ignored. Investors should have a global perspective and pay attention to the international economic situation in order to better grasp market opportunities.

In short, through the in-depth analysis of the reasons for the decline in the value of soda ash, chemical investors can better understand the market dynamics and formulate more scientific investment strategies, so as to obtain greater benefits in the complex and ever-changing market environment.

First of all, let’s look at the COOL Longteng version of Binrui. There is no essential difference between the internal and external design styles of the car and the models on sale. The flat air intake grille is decorated with vertical decorative strips, and the headlight group is integrated with the air intake grille, in which far and near lights are LED light sources.

In addition, Binrui COOL Dragon Edition is decorated with black decorative strips on both sides of the front enclosure, while details such as window frame decorative strips and rear taillights are blackened, and there are two oval exhaust tailpipes on both sides to create the image characteristics of young sports.

Previously, the extended-range four-wheel drive version of Star Era ET was mentioned many times, but the real car has never been seen. The real car also officially appeared in the catalogue two months ago. However, the word four-wheel drive was not explicitly mentioned in the catalogue, but the judgment was made based on the substantial increase in the weight of the whole car. Later, the media real car experience video appeared, which basically confirmed that the author’s initial judgment was right, and there was an extended-range four-wheel drive version. At present, the only pity is that the real car has not been photographed. Recently, this shortcoming has finally been made up, although it is not.(Pictures and texts shall not be used or reproduced without permission)

There is no doubt about the appearance. The test car is basically the same as that in the catalog declaration drawing, and the letter mark on the front of the car is also EXEED letter string. However, if you look at the license plate box in self-study, this slender strip is obviously not a domestic license plate. That is to say, this time you encounter an export version of the test car. The adaptation test should be aimed at some overseas environments, and the official export will be replaced with EXLANTIX letter string. In addition, pay attention to the active grille appearing at the lower end, which is not needed on the pure electric version.

There is naturally no change in the side, but if you look at the hub carefully, the shape of the hub has appeared in the catalogue declaration of the previous two months, which is the shape in the catalogue of the extended-range four-wheel drive version, that is, the hub has only seen a few more eyes, otherwise it is impossible to tell whether it is an extended-range or a pure electric version by its appearance.

The tail is more direct, and all information signs are simply erased. It is hoped that the model will be judged by the tail logo information. Of course, the tail has not changed, and erasing all logo information is obviously aimed at other uses, such as overseas markets. After all, the export version has been renamed as "Atlantis".

After a look at the interior, it remains the same. It seems that there is a tacit understanding between the domestic version and the export version, except for the differences in configuration. At present, there is a HUD head-up display on the test car. By the way, depending on the regional differences in the global market, there may be HUD in some places, while others may not. Of course, this has nothing to do with the domestic market, so just know.

Looking forward to looking for the relevant information of the four-wheel drive version, the word four-wheel drive appeared on the hood. After a closer look, it seems that it is a mistake. I feel that four cars start from XX, and the last two words are really casual. I didn’t understand it at all. It seems difficult to expect to make a judgment through the hood.

Turning our eyes to the chassis, we can first make sure that the extended-range version is not running, and the rear muffler and exhaust pipe lines are clearly distinguishable. In addition, we should pay more attention to the details because the rear suspension control arm is also equipped with anti-collision sleeves. However, it is still impossible to judge whether it is a two-wheel drive version or a four-wheel drive version. The rear drive motor represents the rear drive version, which is not necessarily related to the four-wheel drive. In addition, this model does not have the transmission shaft of the traditional mechanical four-wheel drive system, so it is difficult to judge the details.

Finally, in an inconspicuous position, I found the clues of the four-wheel drive version, and I can see the word E0Y REEV four-wheel drive. Although it is not very clear, I can still see it. From this point of view, the judgment through the wheel hub is correct. This is an extended-range four-wheel drive version of the real car. Since it is aimed at overseas markets, it has naturally not run in China. After all, it has appeared in the catalogue, and it is not clear when it will be launched. Starway’s marketing team has never been coherent. Basically, it’s just a matter of having a date and not having a date, and then it’s quiet, and sometimes it suddenly reminds me that it’s casual.

Originally, I wanted to hammer the four-wheel drive version through the front drive motor, but it was shattered by the front guard. I couldn’t see any details at all, only one corner of the aluminum alloy hanging from the front lower control arm was exposed, and I was not forced. After all, it was impossible to disassemble the car on the spot, but it was a four-wheel drive version.

Naturally, the next step is to wait patiently. Anyway, the domestic listing didn’t happen, but I don’t know exactly when. Anyway, I just know that this car exists. Once it is realized, many extended-range models are actually waiting. I’m afraid that’s the value of Starway/Star Age now. The new guy is holding on to it first, and the sales volume is just so-so, but the advantage is that after the technical trial, other models can follow up quickly, not to mention a few models developed on E0X platform in the future. Especially for key models such as E05/06, there are plans for extended range versions, and the four-wheel drive version will also appear in the configuration list in the future, so the significance is still very significant, but it is only for the four-wheel drive itself, and the car is another topic.

In the electric vehicle market, endurance has always been one of the most concerned topics for consumers. Recently, the endurance test has caused a heated discussion, and many people are full of curiosity about the performance of this car. So, how far can Extreme Leap 07 run? Today, I will take you to know more about it.

First of all, let’s take a look at the basic information of Extreme Yue 07. This car is not only fashionable in appearance and luxurious in interior, but more importantly, it is equipped with a high-efficiency power system. Is the endurance that car owners and potential buyers care most about reliable? This endurance test will give us the answer.

In the actual test, we chose urban, high-speed and mixed road conditions to simulate the daily driving situation as much as possible. In order to ensure the fairness of the test, we conducted several tests under different weather conditions and collected various data.

At the beginning of the test, the power of the polar battery 07 showed 100%. When driving on urban roads, the energy consumption of vehicles is excellent. Even if the traffic signal changes frequently, the power consumption of the car is still well controlled. According to the test results, the cruising range of Extreme Yue 07 is still within the expected range after the congested road section in the peak period.

Then, we drove the vehicle to the high speed and started the long-distance endurance test. In high-speed driving, the battery consumption increases correspondingly because of the faster speed. But to our surprise, at the speed of 120 km/h, the endurance performance of Extreme Yue 07 is still relatively stable. Without stopping, after running for nearly 300 kilometers, the power is still reserved. This is a surprise for many car owners who need to travel long distances.

Next, we returned to the city with Extreme Yue 07 for the final test. In the actual driving in the urban rush hour, the flexibility and endurance of the vehicle make us feel the superiority of the 07. Through the rational use of regenerative braking technology, the vehicle can effectively recover some energy and further extend the cruising range.

It is worth mentioning that the intelligent driving assistance system equipped with the Extreme Yue 07 also helps us to control the vehicle more easily in the complex traffic environment. This not only improves the driving experience, but also reduces the waste of electricity to some extent.

After a whole day of testing, the final result is exciting. The actual endurance performance of Extreme Yue 07 in different scenes far exceeded our expectations, with a total cruising range of nearly 600 kilometers! This performance is enough to meet the daily needs of most families, whether it is commuting in the city or go on road trip on weekends.

Of course, only relying on endurance, Extreme Yue 07 does not stop there. It has also performed quite well in driving comfort, interior design and technology configuration. Through this endurance test, we not only verified the battery performance of the Extreme Yue 07, but also saw the overall driving experience it provided to consumers.

To sum up, the endurance of Extreme Yue 07 is really impressive, and it can bring you confidence whether you are roaming in the city or traveling long distances. If you are considering buying a new energy vehicle, you may wish to include the Extreme Yue 07 in your shopping list.

I hope this tweet can help you, and I hope everyone can actively participate in the discussion and share your opinions. What do you think about the endurance of Extreme Yue 07? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area and chat together!

　　Recently, the United States and Europe have been arguing about whether and how to provide MIG -29 fighters to Ukraine. First, at the request of the United States, Poland expressed its willingness to send its MiG -29 to the Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany, which was dominated by the United States. The United States quickly stopped it, saying that Poland’s idea was too risky because the United States and NATO tried to avoid a direct conflict with Russia.

　　▲ The first MIG -29 prototype "Blue -01" parked in the Central Air Force Museum of Monino Airport.

　　Obviously, the United States wants to be a "non-stick pot."When MiG -29 takes off from its own base and goes to Ukraine, there is bound to be the risk of retaliation by Russia, so it simply doesn’t take this "dirty job". It is not difficult to see that in the Ukrainian crisis, the United States has been pushing European countries ahead, letting them block bullets and be cannon fodder.

　　Although the United States led European countries to launch verbal attacks and unprecedented sanctions against Russia, it did not consider the safety and interests of European countries.In this "sanction carnival" which was kidnapped by western politics correctly, the interests of Europe were completely betrayed, but many European friends were still ignorant and impassioned.As people who eat melons, I am anxious for them.

　　In this crisis, Europe’s contribution has just begun.

　　First, the European security architecture has collapsed.The geopolitical map of Europe is being rewritten, and the security framework that Europe has been striving for for for 30 years after the Cold War no longer exists. Instead of bringing more security to Europe, NATO has constantly provoked and squeezed Russia into a situation of Jedi counterattack.

　　Since the end of the Cold War, NATO has violated the promise of "never moving an inch eastward" and pushed to the Russian border through five rounds of eastward expansion. Putin said that if ballistic missiles are deployed in Ukraine, they can reach Moscow in seven or eight minutes, and hypersonic missiles only need four or five minutes. This is equivalent to putting the muzzle on someone else’s doorstep. Can Russia bear it? Can you live if you endure it? The answer is no.However, the opening is easy to end. After the United States angered Russia, it put up a "war-free card" and left the rest of the mess to Europe.

　　Second, the economic losses in Europe will gradually emerge.The United States has imposed crazy sanctions on Russia from Europe, from space to aviation, from chips to oil and gas, from financial chain to industrial chain, trying to completely cut off the economic ties between Europe and Russia. In reality, the EU is the largest foreign investor in Russia. In 2019, European direct investment in the Russian market has exceeded 311 billion US dollars. In 2020, the trade volume between Europe and Russia exceeded US$ 174.3 billion. These close and active economic, trade and financial ties have been cut off. How many European enterprises will suffer losses and how many European workers will be forced to lose their jobs?

　　Russia and Europe closed their airspace to each other because of sanctions, and flights from European countries to East Asia had to go around Russia, and the cost increased sharply. The United States has a superior geographical position, but its airlines are little affected. In addition, there are 2 million Ukrainian refugees flooding into Europe, which will also bring a heavy economic burden to European countries and even cause a lot of social problems.We can see that the European people welcome the refugees very touching, but the enthusiasm is temporary after all, and a series of problems caused by refugees have been learned from the past.

　　▲ In October 2015, a large number of refugees from Middle Eastern countries gathered at the border between Slovenia and Austria.

　　Third, Europe’s energy supply is precarious.Affected by the situation in Ukraine, the data of London Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) showed that the European natural gas futures price rose to nearly $3,900/thousand cubic meters on March 7, which was more than ten times the price last spring, while 55% of Germany’s natural gas and 40% of its oil and coal were imported from Russia. Therefore, German Chancellor Angela Scholz still insists on exempting European sanctions on Russian energy under the pressure of the United States and Britain.

　　However, on March 8, US President Biden announced a ban on the import of Russian oil and natural gas. As soon as the voice fell, US Deputy Secretary of State Newland said at a congressional hearing that the "Nord Stream 2" project was dead. This Russian-European joint investment of nearly 10 billion euros in natural gas pipeline was thus lightly sentenced to death by the United States.

　　▲ On March 8, 2022, Biden announced that he would impose an energy embargo on Russia. On the same day, the EU also announced that it would seek to significantly reduce oil and gas imports from Russia. This sanction will push Europe’s energy supply into trouble. (Comic | Liu Rui)

　　European media believe that the Ukrainian crisis will seriously impact European energy supply, and many people will face the choice of starving or freezing this winter and next spring.People of insight in German political circles have publicly stated that "some people say that we are ready to pay a high economic price to get rid of our energy dependence on Russia, but it is the people who pay the price".

　　Sanctions against Russia, the whip also hit Europe.

　　Europe is a mess, and everything goes well in America.The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has made the United States harvest a lot, and many things that we wanted to do before but failed to do have been accomplished: Russia will be difficult to turn over morally or in terms of national strength in the short term, Europe will be more "United", NATO will be more "centripetal", Nord Stream 2 will be terminated, the defense budgets of Germany and many European countries will exceed 2% of GDP, and American oil, natural gas and arms can be sold in the European market.

　　Looking back at the routine of the United States in this crisis, it is roughly fanning the flames before the war breaks out, fearing that the world will not be chaotic, and sending information and weapons after the war breaks out, but insisting that it will never send troops.The wishful thinking of the United States is to let Ukraine bleed, let Europe pay the bill, and let Russia collapse. This is a typical routine of hegemonic logic and the latest application of offshore balance.

　　Does the United States really care about the interests and feelings of Europe? Friends in Europe can recall two things from last year.Last March, at the instigation of the United States, the European Union imposed unilateral sanctions on China on the trumped-up "genocide" in Xinjiang, which was resolutely countered by China, and China-EU Comprehensive Agreement on Investment, which was reached through long and arduous negotiations, was shelved by the European Parliament. Is this in the interest of Europe? No. This is only in the interest of the United States.

　　In September last year, the United States suddenly announced that it would form a trilateral security partnership (AUKUS) with Britain and Australia and would provide nuclear submarines to Australia, openly tearing up the submarine procurement agreement reached between Australia and France and "stabbing" NATO brothers behind their backs. Is this in France’s interest? No. This is only in the interest of the United States.

　　▲ In September 2021, Australia abandoned the submarine project with France since 2016, announced the establishment of a new partnership with the United States, and gave France a hard "backstab".

　　In recent years, French President Macron and other European leaders have loudly called for strengthening the EU’s "strategic autonomy". This is far-sighted, but the key is to realize ideological autonomy independent of the United States.Falling into the American discourse system has made it difficult for many Europeans to see the reality clearly, let alone form an independent strategy. At present, European public opinion is furious, and rational thinking has long been kidnapped by emotion and morality.

　　▲ On February 26th, 2022, the outer wall of the Russian Consulate General in Strasbourg was painted with Nazi symbols.

　　Over the years, the American propaganda machine has continued to "demonize" Russia.In the eyes of the West, Russia is a loser who lost the Cold War and a "second-class citizen" who once wanted to integrate into the West and was rejected. When Biden delivered his State of the Union address, he declared that it was a big tone and a deep prejudice to make Putin an "untouchable" on the world stage.

　　As a result, Russia has been portrayed as a demon hiding in the dark to spy on the West and wait for revenge.All its actions to defend legitimate security interests are regarded as the counterattack of darkness against light and the attack of authoritarian regime on the free world, which naturally deserves worldwide crusade and sanctions.On the other hand, the United States and NATO themselves can hold high the banner of democracy, human rights and freedom and bombard Iraq and turn Syria into rubble.

　　▲ In March 2019, the United States launched an air strike on the town of Bagzi in Syria, killing more than 60 women and children.

　　What about independent thinking and independent judgment of European media? In the information society, if the media have political prejudice and only follow the script obtained from a certain aspect, it will form a wrong public opinion. In the west where votes are paramount, wrong public opinion will form strong public pressure and then kidnap public decision-making. People’s anger is one-sided, rational voices are buried, and government decisions are held hostage. In the long run, there will be no problems.

　　▲ On March 7, 2022, Claire Daley, a member of the European Parliament, questioned at the plenary session of the European Parliament that thousands of Afghans left their homes and sought refuge, but no one mentioned it. Is it just because the invaders are the United States?

　　However, the narrative of American freedom and democracy has come to an end.Under this crisis, the United States and the West have indiscriminately banned Russia in political, economic, cultural, sports, literature and art, education and other fields, and the sanctions against Russia have reached a "new height": permanent neutrality is no longer neutral; The so-called art and sports have no borders, and politics is everywhere; Private property is sacred and inviolable, and can be deprived at will. What about the agreed spirit of contract? The hypocritical rhetoric that the United States has built for so many years has been completely "faced" by itself.

　　In fact, the United States has never given up its own interests because of ideology, because it is only the shell of interests; Europe, on the other hand, is often "not free or give me death", and constantly performs the drama of "losing money and making money" in geopolitics.It should be noted that when people play cards, they will inevitably become cannon fodder.Ukraine is one card, and Europe is another.America is the real super player, smash one, and there is another. As long as the east and west ends of Eurasia never stop, the hegemony will sit firmly. We would like to invite European friends to think together. Is the Russian-Ukrainian conflict a "self-fulfilling prophecy" or an elaborate strategy?

　　Man learns truth at the expense of suffering. What can we learn from the Ukrainian crisis?

　　The serious lack of mutual trust among major powers has led to the return of geopolitical conflicts.There is no mutual respect and basic trust between big countries, and in the end it is a war against each other.China’s philosophy says "extremes meet", and the result of one-sided pursuit of maximizing security interests is the collapse of the security system, which makes everyone unsafe.

　　Since the end of last year, Russia has also tried to solve its core security concerns through negotiations with the United States, and the response is only arrogance and perfunctory, leaving Russia with only "dealing with the jungle law with the jungle law." Two days ago, Putin quoted Catherine II as saying, "As long as I have enough life, I will defend my motherland with words, pens and swords."

　　When the security interests and national dignity of a big country are trampled on wantonly, it is the moment when war comes.Some people exclaim that traditional geopolitics has returned, and great power confrontation has returned. Who is the initiator? Can only blame the cold war mentality, hegemonic countries.

　　Pushing Russia into a desperate situation is a historic failure of the West and a tragedy of Europe.The United States can still watch the fire from the other side of the bank, and even provide MIG -29 fighters to Ukraine with fake hands in Poland. And where can Europe hide? There is only so much room in Europe. After the war, the distance between Berlin and Moscow is still 1600 kilometers. European countries will still live on the same continent as Russia and re-explore the possibility of building a security architecture. And why can’t all this start before the conflict breaks out?

　　▲ In the eyes of the United States, Europe is just a "marionette" manipulated to safeguard its hegemony and interests. (Comic | Liu Rui)

　　Maintaining hegemonic status is the core of American foreign policy, and we can do whatever it takes to achieve this goal.Europe is an important pole in the multi-polarization of the world and an important force to promote the democratization of international relations. It should seek and adhere to strategic autonomy in all fields and not act as cannon fodder for the United States to safeguard its hegemonic "cause".

　　Life newspaper May 19 th The wild Siberian tiger was first discovered in China on May 20 last year, and it has been occupied by Raohe County and surrounding forest farms for a whole year. Experts say that in its mind, this area is its territory. It used to be just a transit, and there is no sign of leaving this year. The natural environment in our province is improving, which provides a broad living space for the Northeast Tiger. Moreover, this Northeast Tiger is a "foodie". According to the statistics so far, it has eaten five roe deer, two wild boars and a cow.

　　According to Sun Chengfu, director of the Wildlife Protection Office of Raohe Forestry Bureau, after follow-up research, DNA identification and behavioral research, it has been confirmed that this tiger has settled in our province, but it is not the only one that is hard to say, because there are reports of activities of the Northeast Tiger in other forest areas.

　　　What did you do this year?

　　　1. A large number of claw marks were found on the trunk of contiguous forest land.

　　"This tiger has formed a fixed territorial scope, showing a specific demarcation behavior of wild animals." Sun Chengfu said. The territory of the wild Siberian tiger is about 1000 square kilometers for males. The contiguous forest land here is suitable for the Siberian tiger to settle down, and its forest area is close to 1000 square kilometers.

　　"When the Northeast Tiger takes a fancy to a place, it will leave paw marks on the tree and mark the boundary with urine. If there are these marks, other tigers will not invade without authorization." Sun Chengfu said that they found a lot of claw marks on the thick trunk of the territory boundary, which is called "hanging claws", and urine was collected in winter.

　　　It has been found to have eaten five roe deer, two wild boars and a cow.

　　On December 12 last year, Sun Chengfu and his colleagues took more than 100 photos of the Northeast Tiger eating cattle with a far-infrared camera, which is quite precious. On the same day, they received a report from the villagers that his old cow might have been attacked by the Northeast Tiger. Sun Chengfu rushed to the scene and found that the cow was eaten by a third of the tiger. More than 200 kilograms of adult cattle, the Siberian tiger killed it effortlessly, and dragged the body for hundreds of meters, hiding it in a deep ditch on the edge of the corn field. Sun Chengfu judged that the tiger would come back if the beef was not finished, so he arranged the shooting equipment nearby. Sure enough, the next day, the Siberian tiger returned to the scene and moved the beef to eat again.

　　Sun Chengfu said: "From the photos, this Siberian tiger is strong and well-nourished, indicating that there is enough food. According to statistics so far, it has eaten five roe deer, two wild boars and one cow. "

　　I went back to Russia to "find someone" and came back two months later.

　　This tiger went back to Russia once, and Sun Chengfu speculated that it was going back to "find an object". In the middle of December last year, during the patrol, Sun Chengfu found that the tiger trail extended to the Sino-Russian border. He tracked it for more than 20 kilometers and found that the tiger trail crossed the center line of the main channel of the Wusuli River and disappeared on the Russian side.

　　Two months later, the Northeast Tiger returned to the territory of Raohe County. Sun Chengfu said: "After mating, the Northeast tiger went back to its territory, and this tiger returned to China, which once again proved that it had settled in our province."

　　　4. I once strolled to the human activity area, 10 meters away from the fishing room.

　　"Leave as soon as possible in case of the remains left by tigers. Maybe the Northeast Tiger is not far away." According to reports, this Siberian tiger is not afraid of people, and it has been recorded in the vicinity of human activities. The last time it was 10 meters away from the fishing house by the river. On the 16th, Raohe Forestry Bureau issued an announcement to remind the general public, "Don’t enter the mountain at will for personal safety". According to reports, local residents generally walk together in the mountains, carrying firecrackers with them, driving tigers away with firecrackers, and trying to stay away from the Northeast Tiger activity area.

　　First discovery: May 20th last year.

　　A five-or six-year-old male adult tiger left a trail of footprints in farmland.

　　Raohe County is located in the northeastern border of our province, with a border line of 128 kilometers and a forest coverage rate of 51%. This area is one of the important corridors and activity areas for Siberian tigers to enter China from Russia. In recent years, many Siberian tigers have been active in the forestry application area here.

　　"This Siberian tiger was first discovered on May 20 last year. From this day, it has been here for one year." Sun Chengfu said.

　　Last year, a series of footprints left by the Northeast Tiger in the farmland exposed its whereabouts. "At that time, experts from the Cat Research Center of Northeast Forestry University happened to be investigating in Raohe River. After discovering the paw prints, the experts unanimously concluded that it was the footprints of the Northeast Tiger. Through the size and depth, the experts thought it was a male adult tiger, and the tiger was five or six years old." Sun Chengfu said.

　　Goodbye tiger trail: March 1 this year

　　The feces of Amur tiger collected again are the same as before.

　　The local animal protection staff conducted a follow-up study. In addition to taking photos and infrared cameras, they also collected the feces of Siberian tigers many times. On March 1, 2018, the tiger trail was found again in Shiye District of Tonghe Forest Farm. After 7 days of tracking, the wildlife department of Forestry Bureau collected the feces of the Northeast Tiger again and sent it to Northeast Forestry University for DNA identification. Compared with the previous feces, it was judged to be the same tiger.

　　Video tiger: April 23 this year

　　20 pairs of far-infrared devices captured 3 seconds of video.

　　Sun Chengfu said that 20 pairs of far-infrared camera equipment have been put into the territory of the Northeast Tiger, each pair of equipment includes a camera and a video camera, 10 warning signs have been set up in key activity areas, and 14 patrolmen are responsible for the protection and investigation of the Northeast Tiger. At 3 o’clock in the morning of April 23 this year, infrared camera equipment captured a 3-second video of the Northeast Tiger. The video shows that this Siberian tiger walked deep into the jungle through the forest road. This is the only video of this Siberian tiger.

　　Recent trail: May 10th this year.

　　I enjoyed another wild boar more than a week ago.

　　Sun Chengfu said that on May 10 this year, it was the last time they photographed the trail of this wild Siberian tiger. A wild boar killed by it had been hollowed out. "The pork hasn’t had time to eat, which means it may be not far away, so I only took a photo at that time and immediately evacuated."
