Shared power bank charging is not awesome? Authoritative test found the reason

I am most afraid that my mobile phone will run out of power when I go out.

I haven’t brought a power bank yet.

Sharing the power bank is the "savior" at this time.

Come and see

Fuzhou City Consumer Protection Committee of Fujian Province recently issued

Comparison and evaluation results of 16 shared power banks

1. All safety protection items have passed the test.

2. All signs and warnings are not standardized.

3. More than half of the output capacity at room temperature is not up to standard.

There are 16 samples in this comparison test, with nominal rated capacities ranging from 2800mAh to 5000mAh, including 8 brands of street electricity, small electricity, incoming calls, monster charging, cloud charging bar, Hudian, Meituan, and Sodian charging.

Note: The shell of the shared power bank is marked with "Battery capacity: 5000mAh" and the words "5000mAh" in large characters, but the rated capacity of the shared power bank is not indicated, so this value is regarded as the rated capacity, the same below.

Can be rented without deposit with credit points

For the 8 shared power bank brands in this comparison test, consumers only need to use mobile devices such as mobile phones to scan the QR code on the device screen through credit points (or pay the deposit) to rent a shared power bank, eliminating the risk of consumers returning the deposit. If the shared power bank is not returned after a certain period of time, it will be regarded as a consumer purchase and relevant fees will be deducted. Among them, the cloud charging bar is 100 yuan each, and other brands are 99 yuan each.

Signs and warnings are 100% non-compliant

According to Article 24 of the "Regulations on the Implementation of the Standardization Law": "Enterprises that implement national standards, industry standards, local standards or enterprise standards in production shall mark the code, number and name of the execution standard on the product or its manual and packaging."

In the case that the shared power bank cannot provide consumers with instructions and packaging, the standard information should be marked on the battery body.

According to GB 31241-2014 "Safety Requirements for Lithium-ion Batteries and Battery Packs for Portable Electronic Products" and GB/T 35590-2017 "General Specifications for Mobile Power Supplies for Portable Digital Devices in Information Technology", the identification and warning instructions for shared power banks are as follows:

Use Chinese to indicate the product name, battery type, model, rated capacity, rated voltage and current, positive and negative polarity (products that can be structurally guaranteed that users cannot cause misinsertion under any use conditions can not be marked with polarity), manufacturer or trademark. And there should be Chinese warning instructions on the body or minimum packaging of the battery pack, such as: do not disassemble, hit, squeeze or put into fire; if there is serious expansion, do not continue to use; do not expose to high temperature environment.

The signs and warnings of this shared power bank comparison test are all non-standard, which should attract the attention of relevant operating enterprises and management departments.

Half of the shared power banks were not marked with Chinese warning instructions such as "Do not disassemble, hit, squeeze or put into fire", "Do not continue to use if there is serious expansion" and "Do not place in a high temperature environment" to remind consumers of safe use precautions;

Except for the product standard "GB/T 35590-2017" marked on the call and the "battery type: lithium polymer battery" marked on the monster charging, the rest are not marked with product standards or battery types;

Cloud charging bar, search power charging logo is too simple, search power charging is not even marked with rated capacity.

More than 50% of the output capacity at room temperature is not up to standard

Shared power bank increases with the number of charges

Output capacity decay may occur

If the operating company is not replaced in time

Products with an effective output capacity lower than the rated capacity

It will mislead consumers

Cause consumers to pay normally

But it cannot achieve the corresponding charging effect.

There are even potential safety hazards

This comparison test takes the effective output capacity at room temperature as an important comparison indicator for shared power banks, and tests the effective capacity of the final conversion output after multiple losses when the shared power bank works. In simple terms, it is the capacity that consumers can actually use when charging.

According to GB/T 35590-2017 "General Specification for Mobile Power Supply for Information Technology Portable Digital Devices", the effective output capacity at room temperature should not be lower than the rated capacity, and the appearance of the mobile power supply should be free of obvious deformation, and it should not explode, vent, catch fire, leak, or break.

Among the 16 shared power banks in this comparison test, the two samples of the Sodian power bank could not be tested due to the need to use a dedicated charging box, and the other samples did not have obvious deformation in appearance after the test, nor did they explode, deflate, catch fire, leak, rupture, etc.

However, the effective output capacity of 8 of the 14 samples tested was lower than the nominal rated capacity, and the deviation was more than -10% in 6 models. Among them, a shared power bank from Yunchong Bar was even lower than the rated capacity by 62.4%.

All safety protection items passed the test

In this comparison test, three safety protection functions of overcharge protection, overdischarge protection and short circuit protection of the samples were tested. The results showed that among the 16 samples, except for the two samples of power search and charging that could not be tested due to design problems, the remaining 14 samples could be activated for protection, and there was no explosion, deflation, fire or liquid leakage.

In addition, this comparative test also tested the external short circuit items of the cells (lithium batteries) in the shared power bank at room temperature, and the results showed that 16 samples of the shared power bank met the standard requirements.

Consumer Tips

Buy a shared power bank to do

"One choice, two looks, three distinctions, four uses"

1. Select the brand after-sales service.

Try to choose a shared power bank brand with a large market size, many cooperative merchants, and guaranteed after-sales services to avoid situations such as rental products that cannot be charged, easy borrowing, continuous deduction after return, and poor customer service communication.

2. Check the appearance of the product

When taking out the shared power bank, first check whether the surface of the product is clean, whether it is deformed and cracked, whether the logo is clear, whether the interface touchpoint is rusted, whether the interface line is damaged, and whether it can charge the device normally.

Step 3 Identify key information

Consumers should first look at the rated capacity when choosing a shared power bank, and do not be misled by the battery capacity marked by individual companies in large characters. The larger the rated capacity, the longer it takes to charge the relevant equipment, and the more times it is charged.

4. Proper and safe use

When using a shared power bank, it should be handled with care to avoid falling, impact, and contact with heavy objects or sharp metal parts, causing the internal battery bulge to break. At the same time, the input and output ports should not be in contact with metal parts such as keys to prevent internal short circuits.

Ren Xianqi, who gained weight crazily, turned into a greasy uncle and almost went blind for a movie

Xianqi appeared in a video on a website. Although he is nearly 55 years old, he is in good condition and looks. Three years ago, he gained 100 kilograms for a movie, so Ren Xianqi lost 30 kilograms in four months.

Because of the epidemic, Ren Xianqi was very concerned about everyone and told everyone to pay attention to their health at ordinary times and not forget to exercise even indoors. Hearing such a warm reminder, everyone couldn’t help but smile and recall that Ren Xianqi was complained by the majority of netizens and became a greasy uncle.

Three years ago, during the filming of Ren Xianqi’s movie "Horse Running", in order to conform to the character’s image, he did not hesitate to gain 26 kilograms of weight, eating high-calorie food every day, from 74 kilograms of weight to 100 kilograms of big fat. Because of the rapid weight gain, his health was seriously damaged, and his blood sugar and blood lipids rose rapidly to double highs.

Moreover, due to overeating, stomach acid reflux was caused, and the throat was burned, which seriously affected the vocal cords, and the voice became hoarse. However, the keyboard warrior who did not know the truth practiced the magic of flicking his fingers. Seeing that Ren Xianqi had become fat, he complained one after another and left comments on the Internet, teasing Ren Xianqi for turning into a middle-aged greasy uncle.

But Ren Xianqi didn’t care, nor did he explain the reason why he suddenly became fat. He patted off these trivial ironies like dust. What he cared about was how to make a good movie. In fact, it was not the first time that Ren Xianqi worked hard to make a good movie. During the filming of "Exile" with director Du Qifeng, Ren Xianqi almost went blind due to the quality problem of the props.

The old man often said: The amount is big and the blessing is big. This is inseparable from the idol influence of Xiao Qi’s debut for many years, zero scandals, zero stains, and positive energy.

When it comes to Ren Xianqi’s debut, one has to look back on his teenage experience.

In 1966, Ren Xianqi was born in Changhua County, Taiwan Province. Hubei people are unparalleled in intelligence. The Ren family’s ancestral home is in Wuchang County, Hubei Province, which is now Jiangxia District, Wuhan City.

It is true that people from Hubei are smart. His father, a primary school teacher, has a lot of knowledge. He thought that the meaning of "seeing the virtuous and thinking of Qi" was very good, so he named Xiao Qi Ren Xianqi, which means that when he sees people with both political integrity and ability, he must not only learn from him, but also strive to surpass him. Facts have proved that Ren Xianqi did live up to his parents’ ardent hopes when he grew up. It may be his lifelong pursuit to be a person with both moral integrity and ability.

Ren Xianqi grew up in Changhua Village. The folk customs and cultural environment in the village are slightly different from those in big cities. The folk customs are simple and simple. This simple and unpretentious atmosphere has a deep influence on Xiao Qi. After growing up, he treated his friends sincerely and thoughtfully, and was also influenced by this ethos.

When he was in high school, Brother Qi fell in love with a girl from the school next door. Later, he learned that the girl especially liked the guy who could play the guitar, so he practiced the guitar hard. Gradually, he fell in love with music and wrote many songs on the guitar sheet. The song "Flowers Will Bloom in Spring" was written for the girl he liked, and this song later became the title song on his personal album.

When every Taiwanese boy turns 18, he will face the test of a bar mitzvah, which is to sign up for the army. However, almost every boy’s parents do not want to enroll their child in the Marine Corps, because everyone knows that it is the most rigorous force for physical requirements, and the military training there is also the hardest. In 1984, Xiao Qi Ge’s parents drew lots for him to decide where he would join the army, and they were quite lucky and helped him win the army at once.

Although the experience of being a soldier was very hard, it also trained his strong physique, and because of his excellent performance in the army and outstanding performance in various physical training, in 1987, he was sent to the Department of Physical Education of China Culture University. Although he left his hometown and came to Taipei to study, he never forgot the girl he liked in high school, nor the guitar he liked. During school, he formed the ATP choir himself, and served as the guitarist and lead singer.

In 1988, Xiao Qi Ge continued to make efforts in the field of music. He began to serve as a Dunhuang campus DJ and participated in hundreds of campus concerts during his time in school, thus accumulating rich performance experience and establishing the status of a campus red card DJ. The name Ren Xianqi became popular in Taiwan’s colleges and universities for a while.

Brother Qi was so outstanding. Logically speaking, as a figure in the school, he should attract many girls, but in fact, the other boys in the band had been pursued by many girls, but Brother Qi had never received a love letter. Later, a sophomore junior told him that he looked like a prodigal son, so no girls dared to approach him.

Ren Xianqi felt very aggrieved. Later, he learned that the girl’s name was Chen Zeyu and her English name was Tina. Brother Qi’s primary school girl was not an ordinary person. She participated in singing competitions at the age of six and won many international, domestic and major competitions.

In addition, Chen Zeyu not only sings well, but also looks very beautiful, because she has the genes of a mixed race of the Three Kingdoms, and her figure is also very good! Such a beautiful woman swayed in front of Ren Xianqi, like a dazzling ray of sunlight, shining into Brother Qi’s heart. After the two met, they often had heart-to-heart conversations, and the talents and women were paired, becoming a beautiful scenery on the campus.

Chen Zeyu felt that the person who had a dream would not be a prodigal son, so she dared to approach him boldly, and when Xiao Qi was in a bad mood, she often comforted him and enlightened him. Xiao Qi was deeply attracted by her gentle personality.

Young people get together and often talk about their future dreams. Xiao Qi’s wish is to be a singer, and Chen Zeyu dreams of becoming a fashion designer. From 1988, the two people who have the same heart and soul started a long-distance love run that lasted for more than 10 years.

In his senior year, Xiao Qi was discovered by Taixinge Records, so after graduation, he was signed to work under the label of Xingge Records and officially entered the entertainment industry. In 1990, Ren Xianqi and his contemporaries in the company jointly released the compilation album "Run to the Rainbow". With his many years of performance experience, Ren Xianqi made his debut and occupied the "C position". After that, Ren Xianqi joined the underground band snake with great enthusiasm. At this time, Ren Xianqi was full of momentum and released three solo albums one after another.

However, life is like a roller coaster, with sudden twists and turns, which caught people off guard. The company went bankrupt due to poor management. As an artist under the company, Ren Xianqi and his colleagues were acquired by Rolling Stone.

In that era, under the Rolling Stones, there were many big names, and Luo Dayou, Zhao Chuan, Zhou Huajian and others were called legends. How could such a top organization in the industry look at a young star who had just debuted? Therefore, the company had the idea of laying off Brother Qi.

His stage name was Little Bug, and his real name was Chen Huanchang. This person was one of the "three godfathers" of the music industry in Taiwan. He was on par with Luo Dayou and Li Zongsheng.

Such a childlike person had extraordinary eyesight. He could see the difference between Brother Qi and others. He believed that this young man was by no means a thing in the pool and would eventually make his mark.

Many years after this incident, the prediction of "Little Bug" has been confirmed, and the Chinese music scene cannot be without Ren Xianqi.

Although the company kept Brother Qi in the face of the "little bug", it did not reuse him. Therefore, for the next three years, Brother Qi has been doing behind-the-scenes work, but he has no complaints. Because as long as he can do music-related work, he is already very happy. Although his situation was very similar to "Xuezao" at that time.

However, before Han Xin became the Marquis of Huaiyin, he had suffered the humiliation of his crotch. For Brother Qi, he did not care about this grievance. Therefore, he did not complain and worked hard according to the company’s arrangements.

Later, Brother Qi’s contract was about to expire, and "Bug", who was busy with music production every day, realized that three years had passed, and Xiao Qi had been standing still for so long. Thinking of this, Bug’s heart rose with a passion to make him famous.

As a result, a bug tailor-made for him "rely on" turned out, this song is Ren Xianqi’s debut album under the new owner of Rolling Stone, as the title song, so far, sold 160,000, although the sales are not particularly good, but this song is of great significance.

As the saying goes, those who gain the Tao are more helpful, and those who lose the Tao are less helpful. The friendship between men is called I have the ability, so I let you rely on me, help you go straight to the sky, and when I am in trouble, you fall from the sky, help me on the road, and move forward together. This song, called "Relying on", fully reflects the brotherhood between Ren Xianqi and the little bug.

Due to the poor performance of the new album and the average sales, Xiao Qi’s contract was about to expire, so the little bug fought for one last chance to keep him.

"Too Soft Heart" came out under such a background, and this song was specially written by Xiaowu for Ren Xianqi.

When the song was just logged into the music market, the response was mediocre, so the question of Xiao Qi’s whereabouts was once again put on the company’s motion. Obviously, this time, he was about to be fired. However, at this critical moment, things went into a shocking reversal. "Too Soft Heart" quickly became popular in the mainland with a turbulent trend. The song sold 26 million amazing results.

Therefore, Rolling Stone quickly renewed Ren Xianqi, because if the action is slower, this rising star is likely to be poached. After that, the company began to rebuild Ren Xianqi. After that, it produced and published a series of albums such as "Very Hurt" and "Love You Only" for him. Ren Xianqi has since opened the "peak era" of keeping pace with the Four Heavenly Kings.

It is because of the little bug that Ren Xianqi has gradually reached the peak of his career. Because of this, Ren Xianqi has the most sincere gratitude for the little bug. Later, the little bug was deceived by his friends, his accountant ran away with the money, and the little bug was in a penniless situation.

Hearing this news, Ren Xianqi didn’t say a word. He directly offered one million in cash to the little bug, and declared, Brother, you can use it well, and there is no need to return it.

Afterwards, someone asked him why he did this? Ren Xianqi said in a flat tone: If there was no little bug brother, there would be no me, Ren Xianqi, today.

In 1998, Ren Xianqi released the album "Love is like the Pacific". With this album, Ren Xianqi played a beautiful carousel, and the song returned to Taiwan from the mainland. Songs such as "Ren Xiaoyao" and "Sad Pacific" are classics of Ren Xianqi after "My Heart is Too Soft". These popular works across the country broke the record of record sales in the history of Taiwan music.

In 1999, Brother Qi was invited by CCTV to participate in the Spring Festival Gala of the same year, and became the only Taiwan artist at the party that day; in the same year, Ren Xianqi starred in the big screen debut "Star Wish" released; in 2000, the Xiao Qi family was established in the mainland, and in this year, he starred in "Summer Tea" was also released, and achieved a good result of more than 20 million Hong Kong dollars. After the release of "Marry a Rich Man" in 2002, the box office performance was still good. Since then, Xiao Qige’s film and television songs have progressed hand in hand, and his career has also flourished.

Perhaps for every star, the obscurity before becoming famous is all preparation for Yiming’s astonishment. During those most difficult days, his girlfriend Chen Zeyu never gave up to support and encourage him. Her girlfriend, who is full of strength, helped Xiao Qi get through that three-year "dark" period. Now, finally keep the clouds open and see the moon bright. Finally see hope.

Marrying a man and starting a family is a major event in life. Since his career has reached its peak, starting a family is also on the agenda. When Brother Qi held a concert abroad, he and his girlfriend "got married notariously".

At that time, as public figures, the two chose to get married in a low-key way without a wedding, so at the 2013 concert, Ren Xianqi guiltily told Chen Zeyu: "I owe you a wedding," but the wedding is nothing more than a way to look lively to outsiders. As long as you really love each other, then this form is not so important.

After getting married, the two gave birth to two children, and the family of four settled down in Hong Kong. Through the photos, the whole family smiled like flowers. Maybe happiness should be like this. I originally intended to wash away the lead for you and make soup. You are willing to be indifferent to fame and fortune for me. Fortunately, at the best age, we did not miss each other. Friendship and love are just as much. Thank you for meeting you in life and hearing your singing is a true happiness.

Passengers report that the price of online car-hailing has risen, and experts warn the industry of signs of monopolistic development

  core reading

  Recently, many passengers have reported that in the past few months, the fare of online car-hailing has increased a bit. The online car-hailing platform said that the basic fare has not been raised, and the subsidy has indeed been adjusted, but it is also to ensure the success rate of car-hailing, and the price is transparent and voluntary. Experts point out that under the pressure of funds, the low-price marketing strategy cannot be sustained. However, we should also pay close attention to whether there is any sign of monopoly in online car-hailing, and take countermeasures to protect the rights and interests of consumers.

  Recently, many passengers have reported that Didi, Uber and other online ride-hailing fares have risen, but subsidies have become less and less, and morning peak fares must be doubled. What is the situation of price increases? What is the reason for the price increase? The reporter conducted an investigation.

  Passenger: Shenzhen, Beijing has risen, but Shanghai does not feel obvious

  At 8:40 a.m. on September 20, on Meishan Street, Futian District, Shenzhen, the reporter opened his mobile phone to call Didi Express. The app showed that the original fare of more than 20 yuan had increased by 1.2 times to nearly 50 yuan. If you don’t agree to double the fee, you can’t call a car.

  The reporter agreed to double, but no driver took the order for a long time. Just as he was in a hurry, a taxi happened to pass by, so the reporter gave up calling for the express train and took a taxi instead. After half an hour, it only cost 33 yuan to arrive at the destination, which was more than 10 yuan cheaper than the express train.

  "The price has gone up too fast." Ms. Chen lives in Xixiang Street, Baoan District, Shenzhen, and often uses Didi and Uber to commute alternately. "In March and April this year, Uber carpooling cost more than 30 yuan, and Didi carpooling cost more than 50 yuan. In July and August, Uber carpooling cost more than 80 yuan, and Didi carpooling cost more than 70 yuan. Now, Uber carpooling costs 91 yuan, and Didi carpooling is 93 yuan."

  The increase in fares is closely related to the reduction in subsidies. "In the beginning, the amount of vouchers was large, and it was very common to have 60% off car vouchers. But now, it is usually more than 10% off," said Mr. Zhang, a Shenzhen resident. "Generally, you can only get a discount of two or three yuan, which is pitiful."

  Passengers in Beijing are also facing price increases and reduced subsidies. Mr. Yang, a Beijing resident who works in Chaoyang District, often takes an Uber to return to his home in Tongzhou District during Friday night rush hour, a journey of about 16 kilometers. In June, taking People’s Uber cost about 35 yuan, but there was a 10 yuan coupon. Now there are no coupons for the same trip and time period, and the actual payment fee has increased.

  Are all the extra fares paid by passengers given to online taxi drivers? In this regard, Master Lian, who has been a full-time Didi driver for more than a year, said: "Our income has decreased." He said that a year ago, the monthly income could exceed 10,000 yuan, but now it is only 5,000 or 6,000 yuan. "You have to run 25 orders a day to get an 80 yuan reward, not even one less order."

  However, there are regional differences in the price of online car-hailing, and the price increase is not obvious in some cities.

  In Shanghai, reporters have taken Didi Express or carpooling and People’s Uber many times in the past few days, and the distance is usually 5 kilometers to 10 kilometers. With subsidies, the fare is as low as two or three yuan, and as much as less than 30 yuan, and there is no obvious pressure to increase the price. If you take a taxi, Didi and Uber are still much cheaper.

  The reporter also learned from Shanghai Uber that the price of People’s Uber has not increased recently, but has instead dropped, including a comprehensive reduction in basic fares.

  Enterprise: The basic fare has not increased, and the subsidy is dynamically adjusted

  Didi Chuxing said that the specific subsidy and reward standards in various places will be adjusted according to market conditions.

  "Didi Express is in Shenzhen. Since April this year, the price has not changed. The pricing rule is still 1.8 yuan per kilometer and 0.5 yuan per minute." Li Mei, the public relations department of Didi Chuxing, said that the current pricing rules are detailed in the Didi mobile app. "The price is very transparent, and passengers have an estimated price before each order."

  Uber China Shenzhen market manager Zhang Jiahao also made it clear that Uber has not raised the basic fare recently, and the price per kilometer and per minute is consistent with Didi.

  As for subsidies, Li Mei responded that subsidies are a marketing activity that will be adjusted according to market conditions. "City travel itself is dynamic, so subsidies for drivers and passengers should also be dynamic. Future subsidies will be intelligently adjusted according to time, location, order conditions, and supply and demand, with the ultimate goal of improving the success rate of users’ ride-hailing," Li Mei said.

  "In the last two weeks, we reduced passengers by 4 yuan, and this week we reduced them by 6 yuan, and the discount is even stronger." Zhang Jiahao said that Uber will issue coupons to all users through text messages, self-media and other channels.

  For the doubling of morning peak fares, Li Mei explained that the system will match a reasonable price increase multiple for each order based on real-time supply and demand conditions. "Dynamic price adjustment may not only be used during peak periods, and in areas with tight transportation capacity, prices may also increase during off-peak hours. Dynamic price adjustment is not mandatory. If you don’t mind waiting, you can choose not to increase the price." Li Mei said.

  Except for Didi, the prices of other online car-hailing companies seem to have changed little. The relevant person in charge of Yidao told reporters that from November last year to the end of June this year, Yidao has maintained a preferential activity of recharging 100 yuan and getting 100 yuan back, which is equivalent to users can take a taxi at half price.

  Facts also prove that the competition is far from over. On September 22, Shenzhou Special Car, which has always adhered to its own vehicles and adopted the B2C model of heavy assets, announced that it launched the "U + open API" and promised never to take a cut. Shenzhou’s involvement in the C2C model and the practice of not taking a cut of driver income will make the direction of the market more uncertain.

  Lu Zhengyao, chairperson and CEO of Shenzhou Youche, said that the "U + open API" is the same as the price charged by Shenzhou’s own vehicles, which is higher than the price of cruise cars and express cars. But Shenzhou has also launched a new round of promotion plan of "charging 100 to get 50 back", and the actual price after discount is similar to the price of cruise cars.

  Enterprises generally believe that changes in market prices are closely related to the evolution of the future competition landscape. The relevant person in charge of Yidao said that the online car-hailing industry does not have the gene of monopoly, and anyone can use price leverage to enter the market at present.

  Didi Chuxing also said that mobile travel is an emerging market with huge incremental space. At the same time, the industry competition is still very fierce, and new companies continue to join. For a long time, as one of the marketing activities, red envelope subsidies for passengers and driver rewards will continue to be distributed.

  Expert: normal business conduct, but need to be vigilant against monopoly

  What is the reason for this round of online car-hailing price increases represented by Didi and Uber? How should we view it?

  In the opinion of Su Kui, a transportation research expert in Guangdong, there are many factors behind Didi’s price increase: First, after Didi merges with Uber China, effective competition will decrease, and the price is fundamentally determined by market competition. If there is no price competition pressure on the platform, the price will naturally be higher. Secondly, since Didi has a large number of users at both ends of the driver and passenger, it cannot increase the scale of subsidies by much, which means that the marginal effect of subsidies is very low, and it is a normal business decision to reduce or even cancel subsidies. Furthermore, the drivers of the special car platform have been a large number of full-time, and the cost of each transportation has little to do with the way of leasing. The price will eventually be closer to the traditional cruise taxi, reflecting the cost more. Finally, reducing subsidies is also related to the possible financial pressure on the platform in the future, or investors’ desire to make profits as soon as possible.

  Experts say the price increase is largely due to a change in the previous low-price marketing strategy.

  "As a means of promotion, companies can use low prices to acquire users, but it doesn’t mean that companies have to keep low prices all the time." Fu Weigang, a researcher at the Shanghai Institute of Finance and Law, cited the example of e-commerce as an example. "Everyone is used to the annual’Double 11 ‘carnival, but if there are consumers who think that e-commerce must maintain the same price as’Double 11’ for 365 days, it is a big mistake."

  "In the past two years, ride-hailing companies have attracted a lot of users through various means such as discount coupons and vouchers. But it is unrealistic to think that this low price will last forever. Because in addition to discount coupons, they have their own price system." Fu Weigang said that low prices can be regarded as a marketing strategy, but should not be taken for granted. "After all, Didi and Uber are not obligated to subsidize consumers’ travel with losses forever."

  Regarding the current competition landscape in the market, Su Kui judged that the threshold of the online car-hailing market seems to be relatively low, but it is actually relatively high, mainly due to the high capital threshold. Therefore, in the future, there may continue to be some regional platforms emerging in various places to compete and restrict the existing platforms. But at the national level, the online car-hailing market pattern will not change much in a considerable period of time.

  So, will Didi’s merger with Uber China create a monopoly? Su Kui believes that due to the uniqueness of its service features (such as mobile phone hailing, electronic payment, etc.), the online car-hailing market is to a certain extent independent, but there is a certain substitution for traditional cruise taxis. "Whether it involves monopoly depends on two points: first, whether the cruise car can be improved and developed in the future, especially whether the policy can moderately loosen the restrictions on the cruise car, so as to form checks and balances on the platform; second, during peak periods or special weather, when supply and demand are unbalanced or when supply and demand information is asymmetric, due to insufficient effective competition, how to prevent the platform from abusing its market dominance."

  Regarding the second point, Su Kui further stated that due to the particularly obvious tidal nature of the transportation market, abuse of market dominance is most likely to occur during peak periods and special weather. Relevant platform companies can promise the society that the dynamic price increase at peak times shall not exceed a certain multiple to protect consumer rights and interests.

  Peng Chen, a member of the Shenzhen Municipal Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, has been paying attention to the topic of transportation. She suggested that the government should pay close attention to whether there are signs of monopolization in online car-hailing and use the Antimonopoly Act to supervise in a timely manner. In addition, for online car-hailing to charge double fares during peak periods, Peng Chen suggested that the tax on the premium part should be collected separately from the normal fare. "The early rush hour of online car-hailing has exacerbated the congestion on urban roads. The government can use this part of the tax to subsidize urban public transportation."

N things to advance into a space power, do you know? – Uncovering a new blueprint for China’s space exploration dream

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, November 22 Question: Do you know the N things that make China a space power? – Uncovering a new blueprint for China’s space exploration dream

  Xinhua News Agency reporters, Chen Fang, Yu Xiaojie, Hu Zhe

  Tiangong, Tianyan, Wukong, Mozi… In the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, major breakthroughs in the aerospace field were "named". Aerospace powers "draw" a grand blueprint for building a modern socialist power in an all-round way.

  The Beidou satellite navigation system has entered the era of global networking, and the Fengyun meteorological satellite "family" has added new members… In less than a month after the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, China’s aerospace activities have been frequent. Facing the future, what new wonders will China’s aerospace write?

  Long March 8’s maiden flight, rocket recycling: China’s aerospace "major project" takes over

  Aerospace powers usually have advanced space power and large-scale launches, and can carry out lunar sampling and return, Mars landing and exploration, and build and operate space stations. Behind these "landmark" events, a country’s advanced manufacturing capabilities in design, technology, and materials, as well as the ability to coordinate multi-system research such as probes, launch sites, and measurement and control.

  On November 16, the Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation released the "2017-2045 Space Transportation System Development Roadmap", systematically planning the capacity building prospects and development blueprint of the Long March series of launch vehicles.

  The Long March 8 will make its maiden flight in 2020, the heavy launch vehicle will make its maiden flight around 2030, the launch vehicle will be fully reused around 2035, the future generation of launch vehicles will be put into use around 2040, and the ability of large-scale man-machine collaborative exploration of space will be available in 2045…

  Qin Xudong, deputy director of the General Office of the First Hospital of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, introduced that the roadmap issued this time is detailed and has clear goals, whether it is hot topics such as space tourism and recyclable rockets that the public is more concerned about, or future smart rockets, manned moon landings, manned Mars landings, etc.

  In order to explore the mysteries of the starry sky, generation after generation of astronauts have continued to struggle, our country has successfully developed more than ten types of Long March series carrier rockets, forming satellites, spacecraft and other spacecraft to any orbit of the earth, with the carrying capacity to carry out lunar and deep space exploration, which has strongly supported the successful implementation of major national projects such as "manned spaceflight", "Beidou navigation" and "lunar exploration".

  The white paper "2016 China’s Aerospace" shows that since 2011, China’s aerospace industry has continued to develop rapidly, with a significant increase in its independent innovation capabilities and a significant increase in its ability to enter space.

  Wu Yanhua, deputy director of the State Administration of Science and Industry for National Defense and deputy director of the National Space Administration, said that over the past 60 years, China’s aerospace industry has achieved a series of brilliant achievements represented by "two bombs and one satellite", manned spaceflight, and lunar exploration. With China’s continuous research on key technologies such as heavy-duty rockets, non-toxic and non-polluting medium-sized rockets, and low-cost transportation rockets in the future, China’s ability to enter space will be further enhanced, and the pace of exploration of the vast universe will be faster and faster.

  Beidou to navigate, the wind and clouds to know the sky: will space tourism still be far away?

  China’s aerospace industry is getting stronger and stronger. Will the space tourism expected by ordinary people be far behind? According to the plan, suborbital space tourism will become a reality around 2025.

  In the future, commercial solid launch vehicles will work together with liquid launch vehicles to provide users with diverse, low-cost, and highly reliable commercial launch services such as "space hitchhiker", "space shuttle", and "VIP special car", providing a richer range of vehicles for humanity to jointly explore the universe.

  Tang Yagang, president of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation’s First Institute Rocket Company, introduced that by around 2035, our country’s launch vehicles will be fully reused, and more ordinary people can take two-stage reusable vehicles to travel in space, enjoy the vastness of space and the splendor of the earth in the earth’s orbit, and realize the dream of flying.

  Whether it is the Beidou-3 satellite that "shocks the world" or the Fengyun-3 satellite that "watches the wind and clouds and knows the sky", a batch of "high-end" aerospace technology has gradually been "transformed" into a convenient "welfare": no matter where you are, "Beidou" will help you navigate; without leaving home, "Fengyun" will help you know the sky; surfing the Internet and making phone calls in a plane at an altitude of 10,000 meters is no longer a dream.

  On November 15, our country’s first interferometric hyperspectral greenhouse gas monitor, the Suifengyun-3 satellite, successfully entered the scheduled orbit of space. This "eye" can not only observe a variety of atmospheric components, but also detect the change in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air by 4 parts per million, making it a powerful tool for scientists to study the carbon cycle. In its birthplace, the 508 Institute of the Fifth Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, it is understood that it has ranked 156th among the "brothers and sisters" of remote sensors that enter space and operate in orbit from here.

  "China’s aerospace industry has long been more than just a representative of the’tall ‘." Gao Hongwei, chairperson of China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation, believes that the needs and calls of the people are the voice of the times for scientific and technological progress and innovation. At present, more than 2,000 aerospace technology achievements in our country have benefited the national economy and people’s lives.

  Mars and asteroids take turns to appear: the mystery of the starry sky never stops

  Facing the future, there are still many "big moves" in our country’s aerospace industry. According to the relevant person in charge of the National Space Administration, in addition to continuing to implement existing projects, a number of new major aerospace projects will also be launched one after another, including deep space exploration projects represented by Mars exploration, asteroid exploration, planetary crossing exploration, and the much-watched "moon exploration project".

  Lei Fanpei, chairperson of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, said that by 2020, our country strives to achieve more than 200 spacecraft in orbit and about 30 launches a year, basically reaching the level of the world’s aerospace powers.

  "At present, 30% of our country’s aerospace technology indicators have reached the international first-class level. By 2030, we will strive to increase this figure to 60%, ranking among the top aerospace powers in the world; by 2045, we will fully become a world aerospace power." Lei Fanpei said.

  According to the plan, the future of our country’s heavy launch vehicles will be close to 10 meters in diameter, will use the thrust of 500 tons of liquid oxygen kerosene engine and thrust of 220 tons of liquid hydrogen liquid oxygen engine. That is to say, the future of our country’s launch vehicle capacity from the current more than 20 tons to increase 4 to 5 times, to 100 tons.

  Lu Yu, director of the Science and Technology Committee of the First Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, said that by around 2030, our country’s heavy-lift carrier rocket will achieve its first flight. At that time, our heavy-lift carrier rocket with a 100-ton carrying capacity in low-Earth orbit will provide strong support for manned moon landing and sufficient carrying capacity for Mars sampling return.

  "If you don’t forget your original intention, you have to stay the same." Zhang Zhongyang, president of the Second Academy of China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation, said that looking back on the past, China Aerospace has written countless wonderful moments in the sky of history; in the future journey, China Aerospace will definitely mark the new height of China’s development with new achievements.

Meituan shared car settled in Chengdu: the new gameplay after the giant invasion has been launched

Authors: Wang Xunkui and Zhou Xiaodan

Before the trial and error of the blue strands, after the drop of strict prevention, Meituan’s shared car business is destined to wade through a muddy road.

Geek Park has learned that Meituan’s time-sharing car business has been launched in Chengdu’s Pidu urban area, called "Meituan Car Rental", and this app can already be downloaded on the app store. At present, there are only two fuel models, Volkswagen Langyi and Volkswagen Santana. According to the available vehicles on the user map, it is estimated that there are about 50 to 100 vehicles in operation. Orders are still calculated according to "frequent + mileage".

Meituan has established a mobility division internally, and new businesses in the mobility field, including shared cars, Meituan maps, and driverless and taxi-hailing, are slowly being integrated into this division. According to media reports in early November, Meituan is recruiting relevant teams.

After testing the water taxi business in Nanjing at the beginning of this year and launching the Mobike bicycle entrance in September, Meituan’s hunger for big travel has stopped concealing.A former Meituan executive told Geek Park that within Meituan, travel has been listed as one of the company’s key business directions in 2018.

Like the ride-hailing business that went live before, Meituan’s shared car timeshare rental business will be piloted in a single city first.

A person close to Meituan told Geek Park that in the planning stage of this business, domestic second-tier cities including Chengdu, Xiamen, Hangzhou, Nanjing, and Chongqing were all considered by decision-makers, but because "Xiamen market is too small, Hangzhou is heavily guarded by Ali, and it is afraid of diverting Nanjing’s taxi business. Chongqing also has a relatively mature start-up company (Panda car) to take root and try," and finally chose Chengdu.

Meituan’s almost borderless business expansion model has made it an "outlier" in Internet companies. Previously, Meituan’s layout in the travel field was explained by Wang Xing as "starting from the needs of customers", "anything related to food and life, we should consider participating."

The shared car timeshare rental market in Chengdu is not a blank. At present, there are already many timeshare rental companies such as Panda Car, Go Fun, EVCARD, and Tuge in the streets of Chengdu.

Although it is far from Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, Chengdu has long been the best training ground for time-sharing rentals.

The greatest dividends come from the policy levelIn September 2017, the General Office of the Chengdu Municipal People’s Government issued the "Notice on Encouraging and Regulating the Development of New Energy Vehicle Timeshare Leasing Industry", which directly stated that Chengdu will increase policy support for new energy vehicle timeshare leasing enterprises, and gave specific goals: "By the end of 2018, the city will basically form a new energy vehicle timeshare leasing service network, with 2,500 service outlets and 10,000 charging piles; by the end of 2020, the city will form a comprehensive new energy vehicle timeshare leasing service network, with 5,000 service outlets and 20,000 charging piles."

The release of this policy has brought a huge incremental market to Chengdu. At the same time, compared with Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, which strictly control the number of car license plates issued, Chengdu has not yet issued a license restriction order, which also lowers the threshold for "intruder" Meituan.

"Chengdu government support is relatively strong, the crowd is relatively open, and the traffic conditions are relatively good." Zeng Hao, the head of Panda’s Chengdu operation, said that he has not yet received news that Meituan’s time-sharing rental business is going to land in Chengdu, but he speculates that the good market and policy environment in Chengdu may be an important reason for Meituan’s choice.

The data shows that Chengdu is the second largest car ownership market in the country except Beijing, with car ownership exceeding 4 million and driving license ownership reaching 7 million. After a period of operation, Zeng Hao is very optimistic about the capacity of the Chengdu market:"That is to say, about 3 million people have a driver’s license without a car, and even if only 2% of them use shared cars, there is still 60,000 market space to explore."

In terms of vehicle sources, Chengdu-based shared car operators also have an advantage. Since 2007, Chengdu Economic Development Zone has been turned into a "Chengdu Automobile Industrial Park" specializing in the development of complete vehicles and supporting parts. In the International Automobile City located in Longquan, Chengdu, including Geely Volvo, FAW-Volkswagen, FAW Toyota, Chengdu Ruihuaxian Energy Automobile and other automobile manufacturers have established large production bases.

According to the above-mentioned person close to Meituan, similar to other domestic shared car operators, Meituan will also adopt the cooperation method of financing and leasing with several car factories and rental companies to "get the car": "In the early stage, fuel vehicles and new energy vehicles may be deployed, but in the future, new energy vehicles may be the main one."

For Meituan, choosing Chengdu can be described as the right time and place. But it is not easy to land services in this city in the southwest.

Meituan’s previous data and offline operation and expansion capabilities were largely based on the business of takeaway, in-store service, and even other life services. Whether it was the difficulty of operation or scheduling, it had little in common with car timeshare leasing. In fact, Meituan’s test of the water is very likely to "start from scratch".

But Meituan’s internal expansion into new businesses is also very "goal-oriented", the person close to Meituan said: "Usually a goal is set first, and then external resources are found, rather than judging by how much resources the company has."

The early entry of Go Fun and Panda cars and EVcards has established certain resource barriers to varying degrees.

For example, parking stations are still a scarce resource for the time being, and developing them is not an easy task. At present, Go Fun (Beijing Shouqi Zhixing Technology Co., Ltd.), which has the largest market share in Chengdu, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shouqi Group. In February this year, Go Fun officially signed a cooperation agreement with Sichuan Transportation Investment Group and established a joint venture company, and then launched the Go Fun Sichuan Jiaotong cooperation project.

According to a local car-sharing operator in Chengdu, Sichuan Transportation Investment Group controls all public and road parking spots in the city. "It would be great if the number of on-street parking spaces could be increased, which is very helpful for improving operational efficiency."

In order to facilitate charging and changing electricity and improve operational efficiency, shared car operators generally recommend that users park their vehicles at the company’s stipulated parking spots. And the resources of such parking stations are almost exclusive to each company. At present, Panda has won more than 200 parking stations in Chengdu, each of which can accommodate 10 to 20 vehicles."After all, some of the resources in a city are limited," Zeng Hao admitted that Panda’s parking resources still need to be expanded, "but at least our stations have signed contracts, so it is more difficult for new entrants to expand parking resources in the same places."

As a unicorn whose valuation has soared to $30 billion, Meituan’s every invasion can trigger an earthquake in a specific field. According to a person familiar with Meituan’s travel business, like previous attempts at power banks and convenience stores, Meituan is just pushing forward with a test of the water for shared cars. "Whether it will be done on a large scale in the end is still uncertain."

This is the expansion logic of Meituan’s new business.

In November, Meituan announced the closure of the power bank business. Wang Huiwen, senior vice president of Meituan Review, mentioned in an internal letter that Meituan’s important basis for judging whether to close a new business or increase investment or continue to explore is, "The strategic synergy value between our existing business, if the future market size is not large enough, but the strategic synergy value is large enough, you can consider expanding operations, otherwise it should be closed."

How big is the shared car market? Previously, in an interview with a Geek Park reporter, once CEO Wang Yang used a "self-created" calculation method to roughly estimate the size of the shared car market."The number of people in China who have a driver’s license – the number of private cars in China + 20% of the limited number of people, according to the use of 4 people in a car, and then a 50% discount for urbanization (the requirement for travel), based on the rental price of 150 yuan a day in China. If these are counted as the demand for shared cars, this is about a 300 billion market."

Since 2015, a large number of test-takers have flooded into the shared car timeshare rental field. After a few years, there have been a lot of casualties, and there are very few positive cases for reference.

At the outset of the market, the participants were mixed up and each had their own plans. "Car manufacturers use their left-hand products to buy their right hands and earn subsidies, while the right-hand products are used for shared cars." A practitioner broke the news that there was even a situation in the industry where the subsidy income of new energy vehicles exceeded the income of car sales.

But starting in 2016, subsidies for new energy vehicles were fully reduced and subsidy reviews were upgraded. The "policy dividend" gradually disappeared, the bubble stirred up by the trick of cheating and subsidies was pierced, and shared cars ushered in a real corpse.

This is still a game without a clear business model. This has also directly led to the cautious attitude of capital towards the industry. Several investors contacted by Geek Park expressed their "wait-and-see attitude".

Once the heavy investment of assets, whether it can "make money" has become a harsh criterion for considering the industry, while challenging the patience of investors. The break-even line that shared cars aspire to has risen and fallen, and no explosive breakthrough has been achieved so far. An investor who focuses on the shared car sector told Geek Park: "On average, it takes three orders per car per day to make money, and the GO FUN with the highest market share in the country can reach an average of 1.5 orders."

Most of the experimenters are still looking for a breakthrough from a single city. Not long ago, TOGO Tuge CEO Wang Lifeng mentioned at the B round financing conference that Tuge has been able to "level or even start making profits" in Beijing; according to another person in charge of a shared car company who did not want to be named, they can reach four or five orders a day in a good season, with a daily profit of 150 yuan per car.

In October this year, EZZY, which was closed down after only one and a half years of operation, is a typical example. EZZY, which focuses on the mid-to-high-end market, once used the method of "not caring about wear and tear efficiency" to create the ultimate user experience. The model of "burning money" made it extremely dependent on capital. When the 40 million yuan financing was exhausted, the capital chain was broken, and the business ended.

"This is a very heavy O2O field. Although EZZY has received 40 million before, this amount is too small for this industry." The person in charge of the shared car told Geek Park.

Meituan, which just announced a $4 billion financing in October, may become a giant in this field in terms of capital volume. Once it enters the market, it also means that Meituan has further penetrated the hinterland of Didi after the taxi business.

In fact, existing players in the industry are all worried about Didi’s next move. "Compared to Meituan and Mobike, which recently announced the news, we will be more concerned about Didi’s entry. Didi has government resources, funds, and a lot of travel user data, which is likely to bring about some different changes."

Didi, which has a clear first-mover advantage, is taking action.According to a car-sharing company executive contacted by Geek Park, he has received an invitation from Didi headhunters, but after the exchange, the executive said that Didi has not disclosed the specific gameplay for the time being, "I think they may not have thought about it."

Meanwhile, as recently as November, Didi’s vice president in charge of automotive business, Yang Jun, also publicly stated that Didi wants to become an operator of new energy vehicles and charging stations – a layout that can also help Didi pave the way in the field of shared cars.

"This industry still lacks an Internet company that relies on" technology "and volume to win. At present, the policies for shared cars in various places have become clearer. The next step is to see who can do this job that requires heavy asset control capabilities and extremely refined operations." An investor who focuses on the travel sector told Geek Park.

Before there were uncertain industry attempts, followed by Didi’s strict defense, Meituan’s shared car business attempts were doomed to navigate a muddy road.

However, for the entire industry, the arrival of the era of giant invasion must not be a bad thing.

Live + community group buying the 2.0 era of Bingcheng "Head"

In 2022, Harbin community group buying showed explosive growth, and the "heads of state" also gradually grew stronger in the business war that could not see the smoke of gunpowder. Some of them withdrew from the store franchise group buying, some united community merchants online coupons offline drainage, and some opened group buying live broadcasts in the community –

With the rapid development of the group buying platform, as an important port in the group buying process of the entire community, the "heads" have experienced the survival of the fittest in just one and a half years. In order to not rely solely on one or two e-commerce platforms, the "heads" of the "winners" have constantly broken the old thinking, adapted to the new situation, and changed their business thinking.

"What I’m doing now is trying to convert user resources into commercial value for my use," said Wang Bingshuo, the "head of community group buying" in Songbei District, Harbin. In order to establish a firm foothold in the tide of community group buying and make it a "serious business" that can settle down, they keep exploring. Some of them operate online and cooperate with community business assistants offline, some start to rub the popularity of live broadcast, and some position themselves as a "community channel" that can organize everything…

Group buying and delivery ↑

According to Tianyancha data, there are currently more than 300 group buying enterprises in the country, most of which are located in the Pearl River Delta and Yangtze River Delta regions. Community group buying platforms include dozens of big brands all over the country such as Meituan Preferred and Duoduo Shopping, as well as local group buying platforms such as Jiubai Street and Dailuobo.

Light asset "head", redeem the supermarket franchise group buying

Songbei Evergrande Oasis Community Meituan "Leader" Wang Bingshuo rose from the lowest level of "Leader" to the highest level of five "Leader" in just one week. "At the beginning, there were many people in our community who were’Leaders’, but most of them didn’t make it. In the end, I and another’Leader ‘persisted." Wang Bingshuo said, "In the past year, my average daily order volume has been around two or three hundred orders, with a total of three user groups and a total customer volume of about 300 people."

Wang Bingshuo first ran a supermarket in the community, receiving and delivering goods in the supermarket every day, and then notifying the group members to pick up the goods. After operating for a period of time, Wang Bingshuo found that the group buying business came up, but the supermarket business came down. The reason is very simple, buying things online is cheaper than in brick and mortar stores, of course, I bought them online. After thinking about it, Wang Bingshuo decisively gave up the supermarket operation and specialized in community group buying.

Every afternoon, after receiving a call from the delivery staff, Wang Bingshuo will drive a pickup truck to the gate of the community to pick up the goods. "After receiving the goods, immediately notify the group members to pick them up. If some people are not at home or cannot pick them up temporarily, I usually deliver them to the door or keep them until the group members go home to pick them up," Wang Bingshuo said.

After getting rid of the burden of rent, Wang Bingshuo made it easier to start a business with light assets. "In order to retain the members of the group, I invested the saved rent in giving back to the customers." Wang Bingshuo said that the first idea was to send red envelopes in the group buying group, giving away drinks, eggs and other physical objects. This year, I adopted offline interaction and other methods to retain and expand customers, trying to extend the user’s business resources horizontally.

Integrate group buying resources from online to offline

E-vouchers are one of Mr. Wang’s methods. "As long as it is my customer, no matter how much he spends on things, as long as he repurchases a certain number of times, I will send him a 5 yuan or 10 yuan electronic voucher, and he can go to a designated merchant near the community to offset the cash use," Wang Bingshuo said.

Giveaways for group buying members ↑

Offline consumption coupons presented to group members ↑

Wang Bingshuo’s electronic vouchers are all negotiated by one of his stores near the community. "For example, I went to the Malatang shop at the entrance of the community and told the owner that I issued the electronic voucher, and the consumer showed the electronic voucher, which can directly offset the consumption amount." Wang Bingshuo said, "For every purchase, I am regularly responsible for verifying the cash back, which can not only attract money to the merchant, but also stimulate my members to spend online. Moreover, when my consumers go to the brick and mortar store to consume and show the electronic voucher, it is also very likely to bring me more new customers. This is a win-win situation, so offline merchants are basically very welcome. Malatang, burger shop, pharmacy, barbecue shop are all my cooperative merchants. At present, there are three or four merchants that I have cooperated with, and I don’t want to expand too many merchants. The main reason is that my customer base is not enough at present, so what I need to do now is to expand more customers. I want to let the merchants I cooperate with benefit, so that my customers can benefit. My role is to build this bridge of mutual benefit and win-win results, and to get the fees I win from it. "

"The reason for doing this is to better develop customer resources and use them for me. This will achieve cross-border drainage from online to offline." Wang Bingshuo said that this idea was developed by himself. Since 2022, about 200 members have taken e-coupons to the brick and mortar store to spend. Wang Bingshuo’s average monthly income is around 6,000 yuan, which is also in the top 10 among the "head of the group" in Songbei District. "Last year, more than 30,000 of what I earned was basically invested in the group members, and I didn’t leave anything behind. I don’t think about how much money I made in the present, but to make more money in the future," Wang Bingshuo said.

Group buying suddenly stopped, transitioning from community group to community group

On April 16, Harbin online community group buying stopped. According to incomplete statistics, only Meituan group buying one, there will be about two or three hundred community groups in the city to suspend business.

"Post-90s" Xiao Lu joined the army of "head of the group" as early as the rise of Meituan community group buying. Like most other "head of the group", Xiao Lu runs a supermarket in the Daoli Engineering Community. "I am familiar with the Internet and have mastered all kinds of winds. After a period of observation, I feel that traditional supermarkets must transform online compared with community group buying, so while running supermarkets, I also do community group buying of several brands." Xiao Lu said that in more than two years, the customer base is basically fixed at about 200 people.

"Running a group buying group is actually very sophisticated. Many people think that they just need to spend a little bit of time every day to receive the goods and notify the group members to pick them up. In fact, this is not the case," Xiao Lu said. "Whenever a group member comes to pick up the food, I will recommend them to join the community group I set up. In the group, I will send some special product information from time to time, and sometimes I will send some red envelopes to give back to the group members."

Because of the suspension of online group buying, Xiao Lu’s community group has become active. "Many members in the group always ask when the delivery will resume," Xiao Lu said. "They all ask me if I can organize everyone’s group buying some milk, bread, vegetables or something. I run a supermarket myself and know some suppliers, so I help you buy some daily necessities, and the price is also the lowest. During that time, there were about a dozen orders per day on average, which not only made it convenient for community residents, but also allowed me to accumulate my own customer resources. This makes me more optimistic about the model of community group buying. Regardless of whether there is platform support or not, as long as you do it with your heart, you can do it well."

From local group buying to "community live"

"The local farmers’ ****** eggs are 80 cents a piece, and the soybean oil is also freshly squeezed soybean oil. Consumers can eat things like this with confidence." Wang Shilin, general manager of Jiubai Street, a local group buying brand in Daqing, said that the main reason for being favored by local citizens is the high quality and low price. We entered the community group buying track in April 2019. "The original intention of the establishment is to give full play to the advantages of community group buying close to the people, while avoiding the drawbacks of numerous categories." Wang Shilin said that many large group buying platforms have many suppliers, and there are more products in the same category. In our words, there are many imitations, and fresh products are lost due to long-distance transportation, so the consumer experience is different, which quite affects the reputation of the platform. So we choose high-quality fresh fruits and ve***ables produced in Heilongjiang as products, focusing on cooperation with local farmers, local ve***able wholesale markets and general agents of various commodities, the cost is relatively low. With the Dongfeng of national community group buying e-commerce, it has become a local head community group buying platform serving 200,000 families.

"Dear, we will kill in the live stream at 10:00 am, don’t miss it." Right now, community group buying has also rubbed the heat of live streaming and goods, and they have turned to short video platforms.

"If the community group buying is the 1.0 of group buying, then live + group buying is the 2.0 era of group buying upgrade." Harbin Douyin live streaming host "Sister Le" said that in the live stream, seckill is carried out by sharing the QR code to Moments, and linking to Moments will bring more intra-city traffic. After the traffic enters the community, it is re-promoted and diffused by sharing the live stream link. This private domain traffic dissemination matrix is very amazing, especially in small counties and other relatively concentrated areas. Because the relationship between people is closer, the communication effect based on trust will be better.

A while ago, Daqing Jiubai Street community opened a group buying live broadcast. In the nearly 5-hour live broadcast, 585,000 people entered the live broadcast room and placed an order of 61004 orders. A total of 35 tons of rice, 2 tons of beans, 14 tons of Russian flour, 6 tons of eggplant, 3 tons of grapes, 3.5 tons of soybean oil, 3 tons of Baijiu, and the total order amount is nearly 900,000 yuan. And such a special live broadcast will be carried out twice a month.

"This year is a bonus year for Douyin’s group buying live broadcast in the same city." Sister Le said that it’s not that the business is not easy to do now, but the method is useless. Drawing customers to buy group buying goods through live broadcast will bring double traffic and income. A few days ago, we did a group buying live broadcast for a pet store in Harbin, which directly brought 3 times the income to the store.

From the beginning of 2022, Harbin community group buying has clearly shown explosive growth. On the one hand, more people choose this contactless home delivery model, and on the other hand, the scale effect of community group buying has begun to appear. After the accumulation of last year, the popularity of community group buying of major brands has become more and more prosperous, the network has become more and more extensive, and the sales volume has increased. What is more gratifying is that the group members who have settled down also more recognize this model, and the repurchase rate is very high. "Due to the repeated epidemics across the country, consumers who cooperate with prevention and control measures at home have an increasing demand for online fresh purchasing, and various new methods and gameplay will be extended in the future," Wang Bingshuo said.

"If the’head of the group ‘wants to do well, he has to understand his own development direction and have his own plans." Wang Bingshuo said, "I have a bolder idea that has not been realized. When the number of merchants and customers has accumulated to a certain extent, customers can be converted into each other. If a customer sends Moments for three days in a row, then his neighbors and friends will basically know about my consumption channel. Consumers will compare. If he finds that my group is more favorable than other groups, then he is likely to jump directly from other groups to my group. At present, my customer resources are not very large. My goal is not to integrate the customer resources of a nearby community, but to integrate the customer resources of more nearby communities, and even the group buying customer base of the entire Songbei District." In order to realize this plan, Wang Bingshuo plans to use this year’s "head of delegation" income to attract more members. (Harbin Daily reporter, Wan Jia)

Jackie Chan’s "Zodiac 2" is officially approved, and Jaycee Chan is expected to move behind the scenes

"Zodiac" has won 880 million box office


    1905 movie network news On June 17, the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television announced the national film script project information for late May, and Jackie Chan’s new film "Zodiac 2" was on the list. According to what Jackie Chan said before, Jaycee is expected to participate in the script creation of the film, and the film is also very likely to become Jaycee’s first job after taking drugs. It also paved the way for Jaycee to move behind the scenes. In addition, the plot of Wang Xiaoshuai’s latest literary film "Land" was also exposed for the first time. It is worth mentioning that after encountering Waterloo, director Wang Xiaoshuai once again directed a film that still seems to have no commercial prospects.

 

"Zodiac 2" project approved, Jaycee Chan is expected to start construction after taking drugs

 

    Jackie Chan’s self-written, self-directed and self-starred film has won a high box office of more than 800 million yuan. After three years, Jackie Chan’s big brother has made a comeback and re-created the sequel to "Zodiac". It is reported that the film will continue the story of the previous work, telling the story of JC (Jackie Chan) stealing secrets in the Eastern European base. Angry, General Vasily ordered that the secrets must be recovered and sent the "base 2 team" Maka and Chaba to find the story of JC.

 

    Although Jackie Chan is currently the only one in the screenwriter column of the film, Jackie Chan’s early brother revealed in an interview that he hoped to train Jaycee Jaycee as a director or other behind-the-scenes work, and Jaycee Jaycee also expressed his desire to participate in the script creation of "Zodiac 2". "Zodiac 2" is expected to be Jaycee Jaycee’s first job after drug use.

 

    It is unclear whether the cast will return to filming, but the new "Dragon Girl" will be the focus of attention. The only certainty is that singer Sun Nan will star in "Zodiac 2". Jackie Chan had earlier promised Sun Nan a role as a profiteer in "Zodiac 2".

Wang Xiaoshuai once criticized "Intruder" for being the focus of the industry

 

Wang Xiaoshuai directs the literary film "Land" again, and the market prospect is worrying

 

    In April this year, Wang Xiaoshuai’s "Interloper" suffered a setback, and only got 1.3% of the film volume on its first day. Wang Xiaoshuai published a letter to the audience on Weibo "in a fit of rage". He said sadly that "this may be the best era for commercial films, but it may also be the worst era for serious films." At the same time, he also urged the audience to "please support me!" But unfortunately, the "Interloper" still did not improve and continued to be at the bottom.

 

    Although it has gone through the dilemma of difficult to get a literary film, Wang Xiaoshuai still has to carry it to the end. His latest masterpiece "Land" has been officially approved and is still a literary film. "Land" tells the story of a village in Shaanxi Province where almost all the villagers go out to work, leaving only 60-year-old Chen Xigui and his wife to live together, farming and living a simple life. The prosperity of the big city makes the old couple helpless. They feel that their family is still good and the land is good. It seems that only when their feet are stepped on the cultivated land can they feel a solid story. From the plot summary, the movie "Land" still has no "appearance" of the film, which can’t help but sweat for Wang Xiaoshuai.

Interview with Hu Ge: Acting in "South Station" is a reset and restart, isolating yourself during filming

(Photo by Liang Xiaoliang) On May 20, French time, Hu Ge accepted an exclusive interview to talk about the new film "The Wild Goose Lake". The film was shortlisted for the main competition section of the 72nd Cannes Film Festival, with a score of 2.7 points in the field magazine. It tells the story of a car theft gang leader and an accompanying swimmer on the run, chasing freedom.

Talking about joining the film, Hu Ge said that "The Wild Goose Lake" is a movie he has always wanted to try, but did not have a good opportunity. In order to play the film well, he entered the group a month in advance to find a Wuhan dialect teacher to learn the dialect, and deliberately made his figure look thinner.

After the premiere screening, many commentators said that in Hu Ge’s character, they saw the "forbearance and morality" of the hero of the costume film. In this regard, Hu Ge also said, "Zenong is a person who is out of place in the rapidly changing era. Maybe life has no hope for him, but he also has inner persistence, which is this chivalrous."

In the film, Gui Lunmei plays the most against Hu Ge. When it comes to Xiaomei’s performance this time, Hu Ge also believes that she is very dedicated. "During that time, she had a cold and fever, and it was quite cold at night in Wuhan. After each shot, she was panting and pale. She kept gritting her teeth and insisting, and I especially admire her."

Received in 2017.South Station"Invitation, enter the group 1 month in advance to learn Wuhan dialect

How did you get involved in the movie "The Wild Goose Lake"?

Hu Ge: Three lives are lucky, just kidding. Indeed, I think it was a great honor for me. One day at the end of 2017, I suddenly received a phone call saying that Director Diao Yinan asked me to meet. I was quite excited at the time, because I had seen his "Fireworks by Day" before, including his other work "Night Train". In fact, this type of work is something I have always wanted to try, but I have been suffering from no good opportunities, so I went to see Director Diao with great anticipation that time. Then we met for the first time, and they both left a very good impression on each other.

But what I didn’t expect was that he wanted me to play such a role. Of course, my first feeling was, can I? It was this state of lack of confidence that lasted from the first time I saw him until the moment of finishing. The whole preparation process and the shooting process, to be honest, was quite torturous for me. But I also enjoyed it very much, because I also kept telling others that the whole process of this time was a process of clearing and restarting for me.

Most of my previous acting experience was in TV dramas, so this time as a lead actor, being able to be on the big screen is such a realistic subject, a character so far away from me. So from the method of creation and the way of performance, it is a new experience for me.

: This time you were speaking Wuhan dialect the whole time, right?

Hu Ge: Yes.

How long have you been studying?

Hu Ge: The Wuhan dialect is like this. Before I joined the group, the director recorded all my lines in Wuhan dialect and sent them to me. I taught myself first, and then entered the group a month in advance. After the crew found a local Wuhan dialect teacher for me, and then lived with me every day. In addition to correcting my lines, he also tried to communicate in Wuhan dialect in his daily life. It was to create a language environment for me.

Was the Wuhan dialect teacher with you throughout the production?

Hu Ge: Yes.

Is there such an exchange of Wuhan dialect every day?

Hu Ge: Yes. This process is also quite painful for me.

Why is it painful?

Hu Ge: The lines should be passable, but when I wanted to chat with my Wuhan dialect classmates and friends during this period, I was often laughed at by them.

Don’t worry about whether the image is contrasting, the character is conveying a chivalrous spirit

In the film, your style is very different from the past. You often roll in muddy water and get shot. Do you have any image worries before shooting?

Hu Ge: Not at all. In fact, I see my identity very clearly. Sometimes I may be a so-called star, and sometimes I am an actor. I feel that when I am an actor, the role is the biggest, and all my images on the screen are for the role. As long as it can help the audience build a sense of belief in this role, I am willing to try anything.

There is a scene where you wrap your topless body in gauze, and your muscle lines are looming. Did you deliberately exercise this time?

Hu Ge: I exercise every day, but I don’t exercise to build muscles, and that’s what the director communicated to me at the time. He didn’t want me to be strong. In fact, he wanted my whole body to be able to make the audience feel particularly thin on the video, and then feel tired and unhealthy. So during that time, my exercise was mainly aerobic, and then I also controlled my diet.

After the premiere, there were comments saying that you saw the forbearance and chivalry of the ancient heroes in you. What do you think of the role of Zenong?

Hu Ge: In fact, this is also what the director wants to express. You will find that in the image processing of our entire film, it is intertwined with reality and fantasy. Nazenong, he is actually a very marginal bottom-level character, he is out of tune with this rapidly changing era. Maybe life has no so-called hope for him, but he also has inner persistence, and what he insists on is the chivalry and morality you just mentioned.

Is this morality always firm during your performance?

Hu Ge: Of course, even after Liu Aiai betrayed him, he still chose to pin his last hope on her.

Why is that? What do you think of his relationship with Liu Aiai?

Hu Ge: Two reasons, the first reason, objectively speaking, there was no other person besides her. And at that time, the search area was getting smaller and smaller, and he had no time or possibility to find another person, so that was his only hope. The second reason, you betrayed me once, and I still believe in you.

I always felt a little uneasy during the shooting, and Diao Yinan let herself into the film noir

You just said that during filming, there was always a sense of uncertainty.

Hu Ge: Yes.

Is this your personal feeling or the direction the director has set for you?

Hu Ge: The director has helped me a lot. I often use an analogy. I say that the director’s guidance on the actors’ performances is like performing surgery with magnifying glass. Of course, I think this is also the difference between movie performances and TV shows, because after the screen is enlarged, all the details are required to be very accurate. Maybe I was used to performing in TV shows before, and there are some things I will ignore or ignore. This time it is equivalent to re-learning.

What are the benefits of working with Diao Yinan?

Hu Ge: I think I have gained a lot, including this visit to Cannes. I have always felt that it was Director Diao who really led me into the palace of film art. In fact, in our film, you can see all the elements of film noir. But at the same time, you will find that film noir can also be so poetic. This is what I admire the most about Director Diao.

Will he also provide a poetic guide to your performance?

Hu Ge: Director Diao Yinan’s biggest requirement for the role of Zhou Zenong is restraint and forbearance. He doesn’t want to be exaggerated on camera or in the image. All his emotions and emotions are kept in a very inadvertent state of awareness, so he has high requirements for my performance, which is a big challenge.

Infected by Guilun Magnesium’s dedicated attitude, interpreting the surreal elements in the film

: You have played the most opposite games with Gui Lunmei in the film. How does it feel to work with Xiaomei?

Hu Ge: The biggest feeling she gave me was dedication. There was a scene filmed on the court, where I chased her on a motorcycle.

I ran down the bridge on my motorcycle, and then I chased her all the way. During that time, she had a cold and fever, and it was quite cold at night in Wuhan. Every time I finished filming, because the camera finally turned under the bridge, no one could see her, only I could see her. Every time she was out of breath and pale, I felt that she was dying, so I kept persuading her. I said that if she was uncomfortable, we could stop for a while. Let’s finish work today and shoot tomorrow. But she felt that because the arrangement of the whole scene, including the cooperation of all departments, was very difficult. If she came back the next day, it would be serious to the shooting progress. She kept gritting her teeth and insisting. I especially admire her.

Besides filming, what topics do you talk about in private?

Hu Ge: In fact, throughout the filming process, I kept my distance from all the actors.

: Everyone?

Hu Ge: Yes, because I consciously want to isolate myself, this feeling will be more in line with the state of the characters. I didn’t integrate into the crew as quickly as I used to, and then become good friends with everyone.

: There are some surreal magical elements in the film. What do you think of the director’s handling?

Hu Ge: You will find that in our play, you can find a lot of relationships between the characters and the environment. Sometimes you will find that the distance between the characters and the environment is very long, and sometimes you will find that the characters are integrated into the environment, and these are often absurd, dramatic, and dreamy scenes. But in real scenes, there is often a sense of distance. I think this should be the expression of the director in the video as I understand it.

Can you explain a specific scene? For example, you have a scene where you are constantly entering various scenarios in the newspaper, and finally fantasizing about shooting at an airplane.

Hu Ge: In fact, the director did not tell me the intention he wanted to express in this scene, but my understanding at the time was that Zhou Zenong was in a very weak state at this time. At that moment, the director’s request to me was to perform a somewhat confused state of mind. As a trapped criminal, he had nowhere to go at that moment. In a small room in a dilapidated weather station, the walls were covered with various newspapers, and then you would find that every message could represent the characteristics of an era, but for Zhou Zenong, he couldn’t fit in anywhere.

After watching the premiere, how would you rate your performance?

Hu Ge: I can only say that I have completed the task, but there is still room for improvement.

    After the press conference, Zhongguancun Onlinecell phoneThe Communications Division was very pleased to interview Xu Qinsong, Vice President of Huawei’s Consumer Business. Mr. Xu is currently in charge of the Consumer Business Sales and Marketing Department at Huawei. Previously, he was mainly responsible for sales in Europe and other overseas regions.

    In fact, this time the author still comes with a relatively clear question, because some personnel changes in Huawei’s e-commerce department have made the author concerned about HuaweiAscend P7I am very interested in the product strategy of online channels or e-commerce channels. In this regard, Mr. Xu said that Huawei is a Huawei flagship product, which will be very different from the independent Honor brand in e-commerce, so this should be made clear first. In addition, Mr. Xu said that Huawei will increase the proportion of online sales in the future. It is expected that the share of online sales in the European market will increase to 20%, and the share of online sales in the domestic market will increase to 12%.

Mr. Xu said there were surprises in the third quarter

    In addition, the author also targets HuaweiAscend P7The pricing strategy has raised questions. After all, the price of the Ascend P6 is 2688 yuan, while the machine has increased by 200 yuan. Mr. Xu said HuaweiAscend P7The domestic price is significantly lower than the domestic market, which is an indisputable fact, and Huawei believes that pricing is not just a comparison of hardware specifications. In addition, in terms of product experience, design, and workmanship, Huawei does not plan to learn blindly. Huawei needs to make products and survive in a down-to-earth manner, so that after a decade, everything will come naturally.

    It is worth mentioning that Mr. Xu also revealed that Huawei will launch a mobile phone that is of interest to Arsenal fans in the third quarter of this year. There is no doubt that this will definitely be a mobile phone produced in cooperation with the Arsenal club. Since Huawei’s development in the European market in recent years and Huawei’s previous sponsorship of Arsenal have made them have a better relationship, it is reasonable to launch such a model, but the product specifications and other information cannot be disclosed, even so this can make Arsenal fans excited for a while.
