Leopard 8 is equipped with a hidden door handle and black wheel eyebrows on the side of the car body, a wrap-around spare tire cover and a full-size spare tire on the rear, and the tailgate is designed with a side opening.

According to the application data, when the external spare tire is included, the length, width and height of Leopard 8 are 5195/1994/1875 mm, and the wheelbase is 2920 mm. When the roof rack is selected, the height of the car is 1905 mm, and six-seat and seven-seat models are available. In contrast, the length, width and height of the tank 700Hi4-T are 5090 (5110)/2061 (2122)/1952 (1986) mm, respectively, and the wheelbase is 3000 mm..

In terms of configuration, Leopard 8 provides fixed side pedals/electric side pedals, 20-inch /21-inch rims, brake calipers of different colors, streaming media rearview mirrors, trailer hooks and electric connectors.

Based on BYD DMO super hybrid off-road platform, Leopard 8 will be equipped with a plug-in hybrid system consisting of a 2.0T high-power engine and front and rear dual motors, in which the maximum power of the 2.0T engine is 200 kW, and the maximum power of the front and rear motors is 200 kW and 300 kW respectively. In addition, the car will also be equipped with Yunqi -P active hydraulic body control system, which supports four-wheel height independent adjustment, soft and hard adjustment and other functions.

Tank 700Hi4-T

Leopard 8 is positioned in a medium and large SUV. According to the official statement of Equation Leopard Auto, the price of Leopard 8 is at the level of 500,000 yuan, which shows that the competitor of Leopard 8 will point to the tank 700Hi4-T. For reference, the sales volume of tank 700Hi4-T in April this year was 2006. Then the question is coming. How would you choose the above two cars? Welcome to leave a message after the article.

On March 18th, the new model G318 of Deep Blue Auto was officially unveiled. The new car is positioned as a medium-sized SUV, with extended-range power system, air suspension, four-wheel drive system, electronic differential system and other equipment to compete with a group of "square box" hard-core SUVs.

Comment on Deep Blue G318 in a word:

Although it is a load-bearing body, it still has certain off-road ability. The brand-new power system and "smart magic carpet" suspension are worth looking forward to.

Advantages:

1. The departure angle of approach angle at 27 is 31, the maximum ground clearance is 240mm, and the maximum wading height is 650mm.

2. The torsional rigidity of the car body reaches 45,000 N m/deg.

3. The trunk has a volume of 818L, and there are 31 storage spaces in the car, and various body extension parts can be selected.

4. Extended-range electric driving force, with four-wheel drive system with rear drive as the mainstay, with a maximum output of 316kW.

5. Double wishbone+five-link suspension with air spring and CDC damper.

Insufficient:

1. There is still a gap between passability and some off-road vehicles with non-load-bearing bodies.

As a brand-new vehicle with a "hard-core technology" orientation, the design language of Deep Blue G318 is completely different from that of SL03 and S7, and the power, configuration and detail design are also targeted to cater to consumers who have both urban and outdoor needs. We can better understand this new car from the following highlights.

Highlight 1: Tough design and rich expandability

The appearance of G318 is particularly "hard" at first glance, with a large number of straight lines, strong front and rear bumpers, high-rise wheel arches, and scratch-resistant design for wheel arches and side skirts. The closed "armored face" front face shape is matched with the new C-shaped light group, which is simple but full of scientific sense.

In the rear part, the tailgate is designed to open to the right and equipped with electric suction function. In addition to the shape of the lamp group and the details of the nameplate, the square trailer hook of the original factory can also be installed, and the maximum towing mass is 1600kg.

The shooting car is also equipped with a roof rack with a spotlight, with a static load of 300kg and a dynamic load of 80kg. Full-size spare tire or "small schoolbag" storage box can be selected for tailgate, pedals are installed on the side of the car, and AT off-road tires or road tires can be selected for wheels. These legally optional original accessories are really good news for off-road players.

In terms of size, the dark blue G318 belongs to a medium-sized SUV. The body data of the shooting car is 5010mm/1985mm/1960mm (including spare tire and roof spotlights), and the length of the car when the storage box is installed at the rear is 4998 mm. Therefore, after removing the rear and roof fittings, the length of G318 is about 4.8~4.9m and the height is about 1.8m.

G318 approach angle has a 27 departure angle of 31, a longitudinal passing angle of 27.3, a maximum ground clearance of 240mm and a maximum wading height of 650mm. The height of the battery pack from the ground ranges from 278 to 348 mm (adjusted with the air suspension), and it is 318mm by default. Judging from the standards of the loaded body SUV, these indicators are really eye-catching.

Highlight 2: Excellent space practicality.

According to the feeling of static experience, G318 has done quite well in space utilization. After the front main driving position is adjusted, the head and leg space in the back row are close to two punches (height 176mm).

The rear seats are well supported, the cushion length is sufficient, and the floor is flat. The only drawback is that in order to take care of the flatness of the seat after folding, the back seat cushion is relatively straight and the thickness is average.

The storage space of the trunk of G318 is 818L, and the internal space is square, which is convenient for storage. The rear seat can be expanded to 1747L after being laid down, but the position of the rotating shaft is slightly raised after the rear seat is laid down, and the backrest also has a certain slope.

There is a 220V two-phase and three-phase power interface near the tailgate in the trunk, an air suspension control button on the left side that can reduce the convenience of taking things from the car body, and four circular anchor points that are convenient for self-expanding the fixed rope.

There are 31 storage spaces in the G318 car, and there are also some special designs for off-road scenes. The central armrest storage box is internally provided with air conditioning vents, and there is a large hollowing under the armrest platform. The upper layer is a 50W mobile phone wireless charging board and a cup holder with a cover, and the lower storage compartment is provided with three USB ports (two A ports and one C port) and a TF memory card slot.

The passenger glove box is large and regular, and there is a small hook on the left. When the four doors are opened, you can see the handlebars. The front row is located at the outermost position of the instrument panel, and the rear row is located at the inner side of the window edge of the B-pillar. The storage box under the car door has a considerable volume, and the left and right rear doors are respectively provided with USB power interfaces. The storage compartment inside the tailgate is very wide, and the middle is also limited.

Highlight 3: Extended range power and high-end chassis configuration

The torsional stiffness of G318′ s body reaches 45 000 N m/deg, and the data is bright, which helps to maintain good deformation resistance in complex terrain. This is also the emboldened spirit of Deep Blue who dares to shout "Who said that hard-core cross-country must have girders". However, it is undeniable that there is still a gap between G318 and some hard-core off-road vehicles with girders in terms of passability indicators.

G318 adopts the latest extended range power system of Deep Blue, with a 1.5T range extender, with a maximum power of 110kW. It is worth mentioning that this is a set of rear drive-based system. The rear motor power of the two-wheel drive version is 185kW, and the front motor of the four-wheel drive version is increased by 131kW, and the comprehensive power reaches 316kW. The whole system is equipped with 35.07kWh lithium iron phosphate battery.

The suspension configuration of G318 is really high-grade. It adopts the structure of front double wishbone and rear five-links. The front all-aluminum double wishbone is equipped with hydraulic bushing, and the air spring and CDC adjustable damping shock absorber are equipped to realize the adjustable height and hardness of the chassis.

Deep Blue Auto also said that in the future, G318 will upgrade the "smart magic carpet" function of real-time adjustment of suspension hardness by scanning the road information in front of the camera. In addition, according to the previously exposed test car video, the G318 can realize the function of "turning around in place" by locking the rear wheel.

Finally, the interior design is supplemented. The shooting car is not open for display because the car is not the final version, and the interior is not completely black. The material of the real car is acceptable, but the visual effect is really average. The official interior map released in the later period shows the optional green/gold stitching interior, with a luxurious style. In addition, the 14.6-inch central control panel shows some vehicle interfaces, such as vehicle off-road mode control.

Edit comments

Hard-core off-road vehicles with girders are good, but real hard-core off-road enthusiasts are still a minority in the market. Improving the off-road capability of self-supporting body SUV, giving consideration to both urban use and outdoor use without sacrificing too much chassis comfort and NVH performance, may bring a new trend of "hard-core" SUV with the help of extended range/plug-in hybrid power.

With the aura of "the first share of high-end snacks", Liangpin Shop Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Liangpin Shop", 603719.SH) has steadily increased its revenue in recent years and its stores have continued to expand. But at the same time, the company is also facing the dilemma of shareholders taking turns to reduce their holdings and the market value evaporating.

The core competitiveness of a good shop lies in its perfect product supply chain and rich industry experience, but there are still some problems such as quality control and low R&D expenses caused by OEM mode. Under the influence of high competition in the industry, the company has fallen into a vicious circle of stagflation in recent years, and its gross profit margin has also dropped from over 30% to around 27%.

Today, good shops have announced their return to the image of their neighbors. More than 300 sharp goods and explosive products have reduced their prices by an average of 22%, with the highest drop of 45%. After the news landed, the capital market gave an eager response, and the company’s share price went up and down twice.

However, there are still many practical problems before the company. On December 30, 2023, the second largest shareholder once again threw out the reduction plan.

Both revenue and net profit declined.

In the past two years, the performance of snack food companies has been generally under pressure. In addition to the pressure of high performance in previous years, the most important factor is the influence from the channel side. Snack shops have blossomed everywhere, and new brands such as "Zhao Yiming Snacks" and "Snacks Busy" have won the favor of capital, which has accelerated the pace of "staking the land".

As the industry enters the Red Sea period of competition, good shops continue to expand through the whole category layout SKU, driving revenue, and personally participate in the snack discount track competition.

In the second half of 2022, Liangpin Store launched its sub-brand "Snacks Hard Home" to expand the sinking market by joining mode, and the store mainly sold third-party brand products. In April 2023, Guangyuan Juyi, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Liangpin Store, invested 45 million yuan to participate in Zhao Yiming Food, and held 3% of the shares at that time.

A few months later, Liangpin Store sold all its shares, and at that time, the valuation of Zhao Yiming was only 3.5 billion yuan. Only 22 days after the equity transfer, Zhao Yiming announced the merger with Snacks, with an overall valuation of 10.5 billion yuan.

Liangpin Store is suing Zhao Yiming recently because it didn’t know the integration news in advance and sold its equity at a high valuation.

All of the above have intensified the operating pressure, and the performance has stagnated.

From 2020 to 2022, the operating income of good shops was 7.894 billion yuan, 9.324 billion yuan and 9.440 billion yuan, with growth rates of 232%, 18.11% and 124% respectively, and the net profit returned to the mother was 344 million yuan, 282 million yuan and 335 million yuan, with growth rates of 0.95% and-18.000% respectively.

In the first three quarters of 2023, the revenue of good shops was 5.999 billion, down 14.33% year-on-year; The net profit was 1.91 billion yuan, down 33.43% year-on-year; Among them, the net profit in the third quarter was only 1,998,400, a further sharp drop of 97.88% year-on-year.

The third quarterly report showed that the decline in net profit was mainly affected by changes in the market and platform, the operating income of online channels declined, and the proportion of fixed expenses attributable to shareholders of listed companies increased.

The turnover rate of total assets also showed a downward trend, with 1.49 times, 1.38 times and 1.18 times from the first three quarters of 2021 to the first three quarters of 2023 respectively. This means that the overall operating costs have increased and the growth momentum has shown signs of decline.

As a result, some research institutions have lowered their profit forecasts. Considering that the company’s online business is in the adjustment stage and the layout process of offline stores remains to be seen, Everbright Securities lowered its net profit from 2023 to 2025 to 2.72/3.85/431 billion yuan (down 35.3%/27.54%/31.55% compared with the previous one).

Homogeneous competition depresses gross profit margin

Liangpin Shop is the representative of the last round of snack chain operation. It cut into the market with high-end snacks, opened up offline channels and actively embraced e-commerce and landed in the capital market.

In order to get deus ex from low-end snacks, in 2018, good shops began to market "high-end personal products". The company upgraded its Logo, replaced its brand image with a simple "good" mark, and offline stores began to take the "apple style" with a generous atmosphere. In marketing, the company highlighted internationalization, youthfulness and high-end.

Among the domestic leisure and snack listed companies, only the online and offline channels of good shops account for an even proportion of revenue, and the two channels basically account for half of the revenue. By the end of the third quarter of 2023, there were 3,344 stores in the company, of which direct sales accounted for about 40%.

Among peer companies, Three Squirrels (300783.SZ) and Miss You (002582.SZ) mainly earn online income, and online sales revenue accounts for about 80%; Laiyifen (603777.SH) and qiaqia Food (002557.SZ) mainly rely on offline store revenue, accounting for about 90% of offline revenue.

Online or offline performance growth problems will put pressure on the company’s overall profitability, and the high sales expenses are also dragging down the gross profit margin. The data shows that the sales expense in the third quarter of 2023 was 1.15 billion yuan, accounting for 19.17% of the total revenue.

From the results, the high-end not only failed to improve the profitability of enterprises, but left the impression of "snack assassin" to the market.

The financial report shows that the gross profit margin of good shops has dropped from over 30% in previous years to about 27%, and it was 28.54% in the first three quarters of 2023, which is at a low level among similar enterprises. In terms of peer-to-peer companies, the gross profit margins of Yanjinpu and Laiyi are around 38% and 42% respectively.

In the pre-sale list of double 11 Tmall leisure snacks in 2023, good shops also fell out of the top 10, while in 2022 and 2021, they ranked eighth and second respectively.

In the secondary market, in 2023, the share price of good shops kept falling. From February to September, 2023, the share price dropped from 40 yuan to below 20 yuan.

The stock price downturn is the result of multiple factors: limited product competitiveness, wrong management decisions and overall stock market decline, while the far-reaching background is that the snack industry is changing rapidly-from consumption upgrading to discounts.

Shareholders issue a reduction plan.

According to the data of China Commercial Industry Research Institute, offline channels still account for more than 85% of the circulation share of snack foods. Modern channels such as snack specialty stores and convenience stores continue to occupy the market share of traditional small stores, while the growth of e-commerce platforms is gradually slowing down.

As an old brand, the concern of a good shop is obvious. The most worrying thing is that it will lose its right to speak in the process of playing games with new channels and eventually become a foundry role.

Yang Yinfen, the new chairman of Liangpin Store, recently announced a large-scale product price reduction. According to the open letter issued by the chairman of the board of directors on November 29th, the price of 300 products from all channels of the company was reduced simultaneously, with an average price reduction of 22% and the highest drop of 45%, which was the largest price reduction for the first time in the 17 years since the establishment of the company.

After the news of price reduction was released, the share price of good shops rose sharply. On December 1, it closed at 21.32 yuan/share, recording a daily limit. At this time, it has fallen by 46.18% from the high point of the year in February. In the last month, its share price is still hovering around 20 yuan/share.

In the view of some organizations, good shops are still actively transforming and have achieved some results. Some investors are also worried that under the mode of OEM, the cost and difficulty of quality control in good shops will increase, which will bring product quality problems.

The root cause lies in the brand’s high dependence on the foundry, lack of product research and development capabilities, and price reduction "treats the symptoms rather than the root cause". In the first three quarters of 2023, the research and development expenses of good shops were 36.2 million yuan, accounting for 0.6% of the revenue; In the same period, the research and development expenses of Yanjin Puzi and Chacha Food were 63.19 million yuan and 43.09 million yuan, accounting for 2.1% and 1% of the revenue.

It is worth noting that some shareholders are voting with their feet.

On December 30th, Liangpin Store announced the reduction of shares. Dayong Co., Ltd., the second largest shareholder holding 26.05%, plans to reduce the company’s shares by no more than 12.03 million shares, and the reduction ratio does not exceed 3% of the company’s total share capital.

During the period from May 25th to November 29th, 2023, Dayong Limited reduced its holdings by 17 million shares, accounting for 4.25% of the company’s total share capital, and cashed in 404 million yuan.

Good shops also suffered a clearance of high-quality goods. During the IPO of Liangpin Store, Gaochun Capital held a total of 46,800,300 shares, accounting for 11.67% of the total share capital. As of September 30, 2023, the number of shares held by Gaochun Capital was 16,040,600, and the shareholding ratio dropped to 4%.

To sum up, the transformation of good shops is still in its infancy, and there is still a long way to realize large-scale benefits. The recent shareholder reduction and the lawsuit against Zhao Yiming have cast a layer of uncertainty on the company’s future. Research institutions are cautious about the company’s secondary market forecast, and remind investors to be alert to trading risks.

　　Chinese-style modernization does not follow the old road of pollution first and then governance in western developed countries, but pursues harmonious coexistence between man and nature, which is responsible for China and the world.

　　The world’s largest carbon emission trading market has been launched, and the scale of renewable energy development and utilization and the production and sales of new energy vehicles rank first in the world. Green has increasingly become the background of China’s high-quality development; More than 300 species of rare and endangered wild animals and plants have been well restored, and nature reserves have occupied 18% of the land area. A beautiful picture of harmonious coexistence between man and nature is spread on the land of China … … China adheres to Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets’s philosophy and promotes the overall green transformation of economic and social development while promoting high-quality development.

　　Respecting nature, conforming to nature, protecting nature and promoting harmonious coexistence between man and nature are the distinctive features of Chinese modernization. Chinese-style modernization adheres to sustainable development, adheres to the policy of giving priority to conservation, giving priority to protection and giving priority to natural restoration, and unswervingly follows the road of civilized development of production development, affluent life and good ecology, which has opened up broad prospects for realizing the sustainable development of the Chinese nation. The practice of Chinese modernization has proved that ecological environmental protection and economic development are dialectical unity and complementary. Building ecological civilization and promoting green and low-carbon circular development can not only meet the people’s growing needs for beautiful ecological environment, but also promote higher quality, more efficient, fairer, more sustainable and safer development.

　　How to realize the harmonious symbiosis between man and nature is a necessary question for all countries in the pursuit of modernization. In the process of modernization for more than 200 years, western developed countries have generally taken a road of pollution first and then treatment. While creating huge material wealth, they have also accelerated the seizure of natural resources, brought serious ecological and environmental problems, and the deep-seated contradiction between man and nature has become increasingly apparent. "The way of blindly pursuing economic growth and destroying the environment and excessively demanding resources is no longer suitable for the current stage of global development." Patricio Giusto, director of the Argentine-Chinese Research Center, said that the international community needs to set up a modern idea of reducing the burden on nature and being responsible for future generations.

　　Chinese-style modernization does not follow the old road of pollution first and then treatment in western developed countries, but pursues harmonious coexistence between man and nature, which is responsible for China and the world. On the protection of ecological environment, China insists on calculating big accounts, long-term accounts, overall accounts and comprehensive accounts. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, China has taken the construction of ecological civilization as a fundamental plan related to the sustainable development of the Chinese nation, and has carried out a series of fundamental, pioneering and long-term work. The construction of beautiful China has taken important steps to promote the historic, turning and overall changes in the ecological environment protection in China. Through unremitting efforts, the ecological foundation of Chinese modernization has become more solid, the green background has been continuously planted, and the people’s sense of acquisition, happiness and security of the ecological environment has become more substantial. "The concept of ecological civilization practiced by China shows a positive thinking determined to create a better world for all." Eric solheim, former executive director of the United Nations Environment Programme, believes that many successful practices of building ecological civilization in China have provided valuable experience for the international community.

　　Chinese-style modernization shows the feelings of the world. In the past 10 years, China has been one of the countries with the fastest reduction in energy intensity in the world, exceeding the target of reducing carbon emission intensity by 40% to 45% by 2020, and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 5.8 billion tons, which is another important embodiment of China’s development benefiting the world. Today, China has built the largest carbon market and clean power generation system in the world, and is actively and steadily promoting carbon neutrality in peak carbon dioxide emissions. At the same time, China vigorously promoted the construction of the Green Silk Road and assisted in the implementation of green environmental protection and climate change projects; Take the lead in investing 1.5 billion yuan to set up the Kunming Biodiversity Fund to support biodiversity conservation in developing countries … … "China puts the ecological concept at the core of its development strategy, and this strategic vision makes China a leader in global ecological governance." Jose Luis Delacruz, director of the Mexican Institute of Industrial Development and Economic Growth, said.

　　People live up to the castle peak, and the castle peak will live up to people. China will unswervingly follow the Chinese modernization road of harmonious coexistence between man and nature, and build a beautiful China of harmonious coexistence between man and nature, which will certainly contribute more to building a community of life between man and nature.

　　[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.

　　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

　　Lycra Germany is the oldest camera manufacturer in the world. In the development process of more than a century, the camera products produced by Lycra Company have been wildly sought after by the industry. Lycra’s camera products are also known as the aristocrats in the camera industry. At the same time, Lycra’s lenses have been widely praised by the world. Then Xiaobian will introduce Lycra lenses to you!

　　Specific shooting effect

　　First of all, let’s take a look at the shooting effect of the lens. Because the aperture of the Lycra lens is particularly excellent, the lens will provide us with a very fast exposure speed when shooting with the camera, even in dim light. Therefore, when shooting distant street scenes at dusk, we can also minimize the vibration of the machine, so it is especially suitable for shooting some people. Then let’s take a look at the workmanship of the lens. The lens of the lens is made of two glasses with high refractive index, which can further improve the light entrance rate of the camera.

　　Lens lens

　　Lycra has been engaged in optical production for hundreds of years, so it has incomparable advantages in lens manufacturing. Objects photographed with Lycra lens, whether it is day or night, whether it is a distant view or a close view, set a new optical standard. The object shot by Lycra lens gives people a particularly strong visual impact, although it is under the maximum aperture, and all the details and colors of his images are very clear. The other two lenses of Lycra use local astigmatism optical lenses, which can effectively improve the sharpness and resolution of photos, and at the same time take some portrait photography or report photography, which can make the photos reach the most perfect level. When we shoot macro with Lycra lens, its imaging quality is almost the same as the original.

　　Focusing structure

　　The focusing structure of Lycra lens is also excellent. From the recent focusing to infinity, the length of the lens will not change, which is a great advantage for the lens. It can effectively ensure the balance effect of the whole camera, thus making our photography more relaxed. Moreover, the Leica lens is also very small and exquisite, weighing only 520 grams. Compared with the products of the same grade, the products are lighter, so we usually feel that the camera is lighter when shooting. All the images taken by Leica lens have a very broad tone level and clear detail resolution.

　　The above is the introduction of some relevance of Lycra lens compiled by Xiaobian. In today’s camera industry, traditional European brands have been on the verge of bankruptcy, but Leica, as an old European camera manufacturer, stands out in the dark, which has to be attributed to the excellent quality that Leica has always adhered to.

On March 8, Beijing time, Geely Automobile officially announced that the Longteng version and the COOL Longteng version have been officially launched, of which the Binyue Longteng version has a guide price of 83,800 yuan and a limited-time preferential price of 71,800 yuan; The guide price of Binrui COOL Longteng Edition is 94,800 yuan, and the limited-time preferential price is 79,800 yuan.

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 transmission system is matched with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox, with a maximum speed of 210km/h and a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.9L per 100km in WLTC.

As a compact car under Geely brand, at present, the overall price range of Binrui COOL is 89,800-109,800 yuan, and its competitors mainly point to fuel vehicles of Chuanqi, Chevrolet and MG, among which the sales volume in January 2024 was 4,895.

Next, Binyue Longteng Edition continues the front face design of "Energy Storm", equipped with a straight waterfall air intake grille with blackening treatment, and a large-size three-stage front enclosure with angular edges, which shows a good sense of movement and personality.

In addition, Binyue Longteng Edition provides a suspended roof design, and the rear surrounding lower edge is decorated with an integrated diffuser, while equipment such as carbon fiber decorative exterior rearview mirror and sports style roof rear spoiler will not be absent. In terms of body size, Binyue Longteng Edition has a length, width and height of 4,330/1,800/1,609 mm and a wheelbase of 2,600 mm, which is small in positioning.

In terms of interior, Binyue Longteng Edition adopts the combination of embedded instrument panel and 8-inch floating central control panel, and adapts to the three-position multifunctional plastic steering wheel. In addition, Binyue Longteng Edition also has halogen far and near headlights, leather mixed sports seats, automatic constant temperature air conditioning, braking system, one-button lifting belt for main driving window, anti-pinch, tracing system and other functional configurations. The price is between the gold version (75,800 yuan) and the platinum version (89,800 yuan), and it belongs to the entry-level model of Geely Binyue automatic transmission version.

In terms of power, Binyue Longteng Edition uses a 1.5T engine to match a 7-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox, with a maximum power of 133kW and a peak torque of 290 Nm. The official nominal acceleration time of 0-100km/h is 7.6 seconds.

In the domestic market, Geely Binyue mainly competes with changan CS35 PLUS, Chery and other small brands, among which the sales volume of the 2024 model was 7,911 vehicles in January. As for whether the new car can achieve a further breakthrough in sales, let us wait and see.

Last year was the 20th anniversary of the promulgation of the current Labor Law. The All-China Federation of Trade Unions recently (2nd) reported ten typical illegal cases and labor incidents in the field of labor relations in China in 2014. Jun Guo, secretary of the Secretariat of the All-China Federation of Trade Unions and Minister of Legal Affairs, criticized Foxconn Group for working overtime illegally for a long time, which caused some workers to have various mental health problems and caused karoshi or suicide from time to time. The Federation of Trade Unions named Foxconn, which aroused public concern. The next day, Foxconn responded that on the one hand, employees hope to increase their income through overtime work, on the other hand, enterprises must ensure that overtime work is legal and compliant, which is a challenge for all manufacturing enterprises.

Unlike Alibaba’s "tricks" with the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, Foxconn, as the largest foundry of Apple, has only one round of "dialogue" with the National Federation of Trade Unions. According to the The Paper reporter’s interview with Foxconn’s insider’s office, Foxconn’s public statement was meant by its chairman, Guo Taiming. When Jun Guo, secretary of the Secretariat of the All-China Federation of Trade Unions and Minister of Legal Affairs, criticized Foxconn by name, "Foxconn wanted to explain it to the outside world".

Foxconn’s statement said: "When we heard Mr. Jun Guo turn overwork and mental health problems of some workers into a causal relationship, we were not only hurt but also surprised." "Mr. Jun Guo has never visited any of Foxconn’s parks in the future, but it is too hasty to convince people to throw such a causal relationship."

The factory of Foxconn, a Taiwan-funded enterprise, is mainly located in Chinese mainland, with 1.3 million employees at its peak. Foxconn has been criticized by the outside world for its large number of employees and many employee suicides.

On January 21, 2015, workers took a lunch break at the Foxconn factory in Longhua New District, Shenzhen.

As the world’s largest electronics foundry, Foxconn is faced with the dilemma of working overtime or not. For more than one million Foxconn employees, their mentality is also contradictory. Xinhua recently interviewed Foxconn employees on the spot.

"Work overtime to earn enough money and go home to buy a house!"

Jimson (pseudonym), who worked in Foxconn Yantai and Zhengzhou for two years, still keeps the payroll at that time. On this payroll in May 2012, the reporter saw that Jimson, who had been employed for 14 months at that time, had a basic salary of 1,800 yuan and an overtime salary of 387.75 yuan. After deducting accommodation and meals, his actual salary was 1,674.82 yuan.

Jimson said that Foxconn’s basic salary is fixed and low, and it depends entirely on overtime to get high income. This makes employees generally have an ambivalent attitude towards overtime. "According to Foxconn’s regulations, overtime pay is usually 1.5 times the basic salary, 2 times on Saturdays and 3 times on holidays. Overtime pay is higher than salary, and overtime pay can often account for more than 60% of monthly income."

To this end, many employees are not exclusive to overtime, and even willing to rush to work overtime. An employee who once worked at Foxconn in Zhengzhou said that the deepest impression on Foxconn was the "overtime culture". He said that in Foxconn, overtime work is not only like a "daily routine", but also a "hot cake" that everyone competes for, and "no overtime work" is an effective punishment measure for employees.

Li Fang (a pseudonym), a 24-year-old Nanyang girl, is Foxconn, who is working for overtime pay: "No skills are hard work everywhere, but at Foxconn, more efforts can make more money."

Since Foxconn’s front-line workers are mostly young people in their twenties, there are not a few people who have similar ideas. "If you want to work in Foxconn now, you will ask in advance which factory has more overtime, and they are all rushing to enter the factory with more overtime." Chen Wei (a pseudonym), a Shanxi guy who works at Foxconn, told reporters this way. He once heard that someone had worked at Foxconn for four or five years and went home to buy a house, which made him envious. "I also want to save more money, so I can go back to my hometown and buy a house in the future. Now I have to have a house for my wife."

Coincidentally, Guo Taiming, chairman of Foxconn, once said at the shareholders’ meeting that "80% to 90% of employees like to work overtime, and they can go back to their hometown to buy a house in the future if they earn more money". Foxconn employees, do they really "like" working overtime?

"Don’t look at your watch and don’t think about anything."

Xiao Qin, who left Foxconn last year, has found a new job. She still clearly remembers the days when she worked on the assembly line: "People are like a machine, just walking dead."

Xiao Qin’s earliest work at Foxconn was on the code spraying line. Simply put, it is nothing more than putting the product on the assembly line, spraying the code or date when passing through the inkjet printer, and then loading it into the box. This job is not very technical, but it is not easy. "The arm goes back and forth, and it will be sour for a while, but the assembly line can’t stop, and the movement can’t stop. After a while, it will be numb. When I return to the dormitory, I find that my arm is too stiff to lift."

The work of the assembly line is boring, and once you work overtime, the work intensity is even greater. Especially at the peak of production capacity, employees are often forced to work overtime for a long time in order to complete tasks on time. Xiao Qin said that when I work overtime, I always feel that the time is particularly long, and my heart can’t help but be agitated. "Later, I found that I don’t want to think about anything, don’t look at my watch, forget myself, and time will pass quickly." 　 　 　 　

Most people resist overtime, but they can’t let go and can’t live without it, so they have to work overtime. Jimson (a pseudonym) told reporters the original words of a line leader: "(As long as employees have it), they don’t want to work overtime once, and I have the right to let you not get an extra class from now on." Overtime is to not lose your job, to not offend the line leader, and to work overtime more in the future.

There are also some people who can’t stand such work and finally choose to leave. An employee who has worked in Foxconn for many years said that in most Foxconn factories, the proportion of front-line workers accounts for more than 70% of all employees, and the workers on this part of the production line are very mobile. "Walking among workers may basically be just a few months or even a few days. There are fewer people who can work here for more than a year, and most people still can’t stand this pain."

Faced with the criticism of the secretary of the Secretariat of the All-China Federation of Trade Unions, Foxconn questioned that "Mr. Jun Guo has never visited any of Foxconn’s parks in the future, which is rather hasty and difficult to convince."

"The trade union should open the appeal channel"

Obviously unwilling to work overtime, but forced to work overtime, even forced by reality, how to solve the dilemma of Foxconn employees?

Wang Zhongwu, a sociology professor at Shandong University, said that whether employees work overtime or not is also a dilemma for them. Therefore, under the premise of abiding by the law, we should strengthen the strength of trade unions and improve the labor welfare system. Trade unions can communicate with employers on behalf of workers, and can actively intervene in enterprise management, planning, decision-making, wage distribution, etc. "No matter whether it is the employer or the laborer, the realization of the rights of either party cannot deprive or infringe on the interests of the other party."

Wang Zhongwu pointed out that, in theory, trade unions are an important force to restrict business owners from arbitrarily infringing employees’ interests. However, in many foreign-funded or private enterprises in China, trade union organizations are basically ineffective, which can neither represent the interests of employees and equal dialogue with managers, nor perform their duties of participating in enterprise management.

"Because the situation of each factory and each worker is different, the agreement on labor relations and working hours should be flexible and based on negotiation between employers and employees." Wang Zhongwu believes that if workers feel that their rights and interests are affected, they need a reasonable channel to express their demands, and this channel should undoubtedly be opened by trade unions.

Labor scholars question Foxconn’s open letter: Foxconn is lying, and the real situation is more serious.

The opening-up drama presented by Foxconn in 2015 was a slobber. On February 2nd, Mr. Jun Guo, Secretary of the Secretariat of the All-China Federation of Trade Unions and Minister of Legal Affairs, criticized Foxconn by name at the press conference held by the All-China Federation of Trade Unions, accusing it of illegally arranging workers to work overtime for a long time for a long time, resulting in various mental health problems of some workers, resulting in karoshi or suicide from time to time. Foxconn responded immediately with high efficiency. On February 3rd, an article entitled "We are not perfect, but please pay attention to our progress-Foxconn Technology Group declares and discusses with Mr. Jun Guo" appeared in major media.

Looking at Foxconn’s discussion, the first thing is to refute: "There is no relationship between employees’ long-term overtime and karoshi and suicide." Infinitely wronged Foxconn Group said: I didn’t push the workers to jump off the building, which has nothing to do with me. Then there is cheating: "Long-term overtime of workers is a problem faced by all manufacturing enterprises." Then he said affectedly, overtime work is not my family, so why bother me? Finally, he shamelessly said, "Mr. Jun Guo has never visited any of Foxconn’s parks in the future, but it is too hasty to convince people to throw out such a causal relationship."

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.
