Bao Beier Exposes "King of Bad Films": Helpless or Compromise?

In recent years, the stars in China’s entertainment circle have often attracted the attention of the media and the public because of various remarks, and Bao Beier’s self-exposure of the "king of bad movies" has recently aroused extensive discussion. His speech on social media not only triggered a heated discussion among the audience, but also showed us the complex relationship between film quality and commercial interests in the entertainment industry. Is the "bad film" referred to by Bao Beier a helpless move or the result of market compromise?

As a young artist, Bao Beier’s performance in many works in the film and television circle has attracted public attention in recent years. Although he has achieved some success in some subjects, he is inevitably caught in the market demand for low-cost and fast-paced films. With the diversification of audience entertainment consumption, the rhythm and depth of classic stories in the past seems to be no longer the main pursuit of the industry. Whether in response to market demand or in order to get back to the book as soon as possible, many films that Bao Beier participated in may be labeled as "bad films".

Behind this phenomenon, there are actually deeper economic considerations and cultural reflections in the industry. Experts pointed out that the income of the film market comes from multiple income modes such as box office, peripheral products and subsequent streaming media, and many small-budget works often choose more chaotic plots and grandiose special effects in order to maximize their income. This choice of pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages makes the quality of the film uneven. In this case, stars are often faced with a choice: whether to stick to their own style of creation or meet the needs of the market?

Bao Beier said that in fact, in today’s highly competitive entertainment circle, it is not easy to make a good film, and many times the producers need to complete the work in a short time to meet the demand. In order to ensure commercial returns, many directors may be more willing to make a fuss about the visual effect and viewing experience of the film than the improvement of quality. This has led to a problem: the audience is strongly dissatisfied with the declining film quality, while the artists bear the label of "king of bad films" and bear unnecessary pressure and accusations.

From another perspective, it also reflects the huge gap between the expectations of the whole society for film art and the reality. In recent years, while enjoying the entertainment content, more viewers began to pay attention to the quality and depth of the film. To solve this dilemma, we need not only the introspection of the creators themselves, but also the regulation and guidance within the industry. When the audience’s demand for high-quality content reaches a certain level, it is possible to push the production company back to its original intention and re-balance art and business.

In the future development, Bao Beier may be able to use this kind of public opinion feedback to actively choose more challenging works and find his own creative path. At the same time, the audience, as an integral part of the market, should make more wise choices in consumption and support high-quality films. In this way, perhaps we can find a more balanced state between comedy and serious subjects.

In any case, Bao Beier’s self-exposure of the "king of bad movies" reveals not only a star’s self-reflection, but also the mode and direction that the whole film industry needs to solve urgently. This discussion will help us to think more deeply about the film and television industry and its future development.

After the woman went to her ex-husband’s house to spend her birthday with her children, she lost contact for 40 days, and Zeng WeChat replied to her family.

  For 40 days, Yang Molan, a citizen of Wuzhou, Guangxi, still has no news. On the day of losing contact, Yang Moulan went to Yulin’s ex-husband’s house to spend his birthday with his children. At present, Yulin police are investigating this matter.

  On August 23rd, Mr. Yang, the younger brother of Ms. Yang Molan, who lost contact, told The Paper (www.thepaper.cn) that on the evening of July 14th, his elder sister Yang Molan lost contact with her family, and her mobile phone was always in the "off state". "On the day of losing contact, my sister went to her ex-husband Mr. Chen’s house to celebrate her child’s birthday." Mr. Yang said that this is the last whereabouts of his sister known to his family. On July 17, they reported to the Chengxi Police Station of Yuzhou Branch of Yulin Public Security Bureau. Up to now, they have not contacted Yang Moulan.

  According to media reports, Mr. Chen, the ex-husband, didn’t know that Yang Moulan had visited his children in his home before he lost contact, and said that a stranger had sent him a photo of his ex-wife in a hotel. At that time, he alerted the local police station.

  On the 23rd, a policeman on duty at Chengxi Police Station said that Yang Moulan had not been found and was under investigation. The police said that Yang Moulan’s family would be informed of the detailed progress.

  Zeng WeChat replied to his family during the loss of contact.

  On July 14th, Yang Moulan went to Mr. Chen’s home in Lincun, Chengxi Street, Yuzhou District, Yulin City, and prepared to spend his birthday with his children. At about 19 o’clock on the same day, my mother received a phone call from Yang Moulan and asked him to help get the courier. "This is the last call with us before my sister lost contact." Mr. Yang said that three or four hours later, when he contacted his sister again, the phone had been prompted to "turn off".

  Three days later, on July 17, Mr. Yang went to Mr. Chen’s house to find his sister. Two nephews told him that his mother cooked dinner and slept with them on the evening of 14th. But when they woke up, they didn’t see their mother. And Mr. Chen said that he went out with friends that night and was not at home, and he didn’t see Yang Moulan.

  Subsequently, they went to the local police station to report to the police, saying that Yang Moulan had lost contact. "The police asked the former brother-in-law something, but he still said he didn’t see it." Mr. Yang said that his sister’s mobile phone was turned off, but the status of WeChat showed "active". This statement has not been confirmed by the police.

  During the period of losing contact, Mr. Yang called his sister several times, all of which indicated that "the mobile phone has been turned off". "After losing contact, our family was blocked and we couldn’t see our sister’s circle of friends." However, Mr. Yang mentioned that some customers (referring to merchants who wholesale vegetables) said that they saw their sister send a circle of friends, and the pictures they sent were photos of previous trips.

  During the loss of contact, the family received a WeChat reply from Yang Moulan. Photo courtesy of respondents

  The screenshot of WeChat provided by Mr. Yang shows that at 7: 57 on August 10, his wife received a reply from her sister WeChat, "You are stupid, you will be back then." After that, they never received a reply from their sister.

  According to the report of China Business Daily on August 22nd, Mr. Yang contacted Yang Yonglan on WeChat, and his sister kept replying by voice. However, after Yang Molan "lost contact", they sent him a WeChat, "My sister either doesn’t return or simply returns a few words in words." Mr. Yang suspected that it was not my sister who replied to the text message and asked the other party to reply by voice, but the other party never replied.

  As of press time, The Paper called Yang Moulan many times, and all the phones were turned off.

  The family said that my sister had been abused by her ex-husband.

  According to Mr. Yang, my sister Yang Moulan is 32 years old, easy-going and engaged in vegetable wholesale business. In 2013, my sister married Mr. Chen and had two sons.

  In January this year, Yang Yonglan and Mr. Chen negotiated a divorce, and their two sons were raised by Mr. Chen. Half a year later, Mr. Yang and his family learned about the divorce because Mr. Chen asked for remarriage. Mr. Yang said that it was only after this that they heard that Mr. Chen liked gambling. Because of money, the two had quarreled, and his sister had been subjected to domestic violence by Mr. Chen. "My sister has never told us this." Mr. Yang said.

  According to the report of China Business Daily on August 22nd, Mr. Chen admitted that they had quarreled over their gambling, and that he had touched Yang Moulan. At the same time, he said that he has stopped gambling now. Mr. Chen also introduced that at the end of June and the beginning of July this year, Yang Molan blacked out his phone and WeChat, and he and Yang Molan have not contacted each other since then. For Yang Moulan’s coming home to spend his birthday with his children, he said that he didn’t come home until after 3 am on July 14th, and he didn’t see Yang Moulan, and he didn’t know that she had been here.

  The aforementioned report also said that in July this year, a stranger added Mr. Chen’s WeChat, and the other party also sent the marriage certificate, divorce certificate and photos of his ex-wife in the hotel. In the afternoon, he alerted the local police station. Mr. Chen said that he did not expect that his ex-wife Yang Moulan "lost contact" later.

  On August 22, Yang Molan chatted with the teacher. Huashang daily

  It is worth noting that the aforementioned report also mentioned that at noon on August 22, Mr. Chen sent a screenshot of WeChat with Yang Moulan and his son’s teacher to the reporter, showing that at 11: 13 on the 22nd, Yang Moulan sent a message asking whether the child started school and was ready to give the child tuition. But for this statement, Mr. Yang said that he had heard about it and did not know the specific situation.

  As of press time, The Paper called Mr. Chen many times, but the phone was not connected.

  On 23rd, the police of Chengxi Police Station of Yuzhou Branch of Yulin Police Station told The Paper that Yang Moulan had not been found and was under investigation.

3.0 version of "Me and My XX", what kind of answer sheet did you hand over?

>For the third consecutive National Day holiday, the audience spent time with the National Day trilogy movies.

>"My Father and I" continues the highlights of the first two films, with multi-directors and all-star cast, and still takes the little people as the entry point of the big era background, telling several stories with different themes, laughter and tears.

>The first My People,My Country was born at the historical node of the 70th anniversary of the founding of New China, which has special commemorative significance. After three years, will the audience feel aesthetic fatigue? How should the main creator break through innovation and dispel this fatigue?

>The four directors of My Father and I are all actors, especially Zhang Ziyi and Shen Teng. Can they shoulder the heavy responsibility this time? What kind of different feelings are expressed for "parents" compared with "motherland" and "hometown"?

>In 2019, My People,My Country was born at the right time. At that time, a group of directors who had the most box office appeal in China and guaranteed the quality of their works were delineated: Chen Kaige was the general director, and the rest were Guan Hu, Xue Xiaolu, Xú Zhēng, Ning Hao and Muye Wen.

>My People,My Country’s box office and word-of-mouth are very successful, and the appearance of the sequel My People My Homeland is logical. My People My Homeland began to be younger and more comic, with Zhang Yimou as the chief producer and Ning Hao, Xú Zhēng, Chen Sicheng, Yan Fei, Peng Damo and Deng Chao as directors.

>My Father and I are no longer led by top directors like Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou. The selected directors are not only young, but also actors from across the border: Jason Wu, Zhang Ziyi, Xú Zhēng and Shen Teng. Although both Zhang Ziyi and Shen Teng are national movie stars, they have never been directors before. They don’t belong to any generation and have no fixed labels, which can bring freshness and surprise to the audience.

>It can be seen from the behind-the-scenes lineup that the National Day trilogy has become lighter and more confident after establishing brand recognition. It has opened its arms to accommodate more filmmakers to join this annual large-scale project and encouraged more creative forces to let go of their hands and feet to express themselves.

>The number of directors and units is also decreasing year by year, giving each story more space to expand. The length of each unit of Father’s Generation is more than half an hour, which is more in line with the law of film creation. There is no need to be like "Motherland" and "Hometown", and some units have to reduce the plot due to space constraints.

>The most successful point of this series is that there is no false praise at all, and the creative policy set since the first "Motherland" has been consistently continued — — We must take the little people as the leading role and tell the vivid little things that happened to them, so as to map the background behind them.

>What little people did the four "fathers" in Me and My Father choose?

>Jason Wu’s father in Riding the Wind is an ordinary anti-Japanese cavalry soldier; Zhang Ziyi’s mother in The Poetry is an unknown rocket fuel researcher. Xú Zhēng’s father in Duck Prophet is a failed section chief of medicinal liquor sales. Shen Teng’s substitute dad in A Boys’ Journey is simply an artificial intelligence product.

>Soldiers, astronauts, businessmen and robots are not great heroes in history, but military, aerospace, economy and science and technology are all indispensable pillar forces under the background of the rise of great powers in China.

>Compared with such grand and dignified words as "motherland" and "hometown", "father" is a concrete person, which gives people a feeling of being close and familiar with a lot.

>What’s more, these four "fathers" are not the traditional images of parents in China.

>In Riding the Wind, Leo never calls Jason Wu "Dad". In The Poem, the boy’s two fathers died one after another, and it was Zhang Ziyi’s mother who assumed the responsibilities of her parents. Xú Zhēng’s father in The Duck Prophet made his son so ashamed that he pretended not to know him and took a detour. Shen Teng plays a father who is not related by blood in A Boys’ Journey, and even more coincidentally, in the end, the father and son become each other’s "fathers".

>Therefore, what Fathers wants to talk about is, in the final analysis, the word "inheritance", which tells how China’s achievements in labor and wisdom have been passed down from generation to generation.

>Perhaps Sheela’s Hinayana wind will not have to fight any more when he grows up, but he can become a space researcher. After the successful development of two bombs and one satellite, some of their children may have gone into business. The first group of people who started their own businesses after the reform and opening up may step out of the future giants of scientific and technological innovation.

>Different times have different missions, which is the strategic point of Me and My Father.

>Going to the cinema to watch this series of movies on National Day has become a celebration ceremony and habit for more and more families. A movie ticket is the only one in the movie circle, which can see stars in half the entertainment circle and feel stories of different types, themes and styles.

>My People,My Country takes time as the sequence, My My Hometown takes space as the axis, and My Father and I take generations as the chapter, giving consideration to both, respectively telling the story of Jizhong cavalry regiment during the Anti-Japanese War, scientists in the desert during the period of two bombs and one satellite, Shanghai businessmen in the early days of reform and opening up, and Shenzhen families in 2021.

>What kind of answers did the four directors hand over this year?

>The first unit, Riding the Wind, has a typical Jason Wu-style tough guy’s blood, which is comparable to the anti-Japanese version of Wolf Warriors. However, after consulting the historical data of Jizhong Cavalry Corps, we know that the war scene presented in the film is not a "drama", but that the enemy’s strength is so disparity and the war is so tragic. Those pictures of guns and guns with blood and broken limbs and limbs are a painful page in the history of the Republic that cannot be avoided and should not be forgotten, and the fearless spirit shown by teenagers riding the wind has planted the fire of victory for the future.

>Riding the Wind by Me and My Father, Jason Wu, Leo.

>Riding on the Wind not only has the shock of war drama, but also has the deep affection of literary drama.

>At the beginning, a rocker arm raised the lens, which photographed the vastness and beauty of the field scenery, as well as the magnificent appearance of the young men in the field incarnating the cavalry regiment at the time of departure. The scene of father and son having a heart-to-heart conversation at night, in the way of man-to-man conversation, puts the feelings of mutual concern between father and son and their common aspirations — — Killing the enemy, serving the country, and dying in the battlefield are deeply expressed. When the old horse returned to the team alone, and Sheela named the newborn "riding the wind", Jason Wu’s delicate performance was moving.

>Riding the Wind by Me and My Father, Jason Wu, Leo.

>The second unit is Zhang Ziyi’s Poems. I haven’t recovered from the shocking scene of Riding the Wind, but I was surprised by Zhang Ziyi’s first shot.

>It was a long shot with extremely complicated scheduling, which shuttled among a large group of children playing wantonly, briefly explaining the elements of the story: the small town on the border of the desert, the children’s perspective, and at the same time throwing out the question: where did the parents of these children go? Then, a strange loud noise frightened the children and aroused the audience’s appetite.

>Later, we learned that the couple played by Zhang Ziyi and Huang Xuan were the rocket fuel engineers of the first artificial satellite in New China. Compared with their contribution to scientific research, The Poem shows more about how parents and children get along with each other, revealing the flesh-and-blood side of these great craftsmen. Punish the leg in front of the child, the rare shredded pork in the dish, explain the image of Kongming Lantern when the rocket is fired to the child, and the simple poem &hellip at the end of the film; … All give this unit a delicate warmth from a female perspective.

Poetry of Me and My Father, Zhang Ziyi and Huang Xuan.

>The director, chief producer, screenwriter and other important positions of this unit are all women, and the astronaut who finally went into space on behalf of China is also a woman. I have to say that it is necessary and precious in a work like Father. The director’s answer sheet handed over by Zhang Ziyi for the first time has also been well received by the audience.

> Zhang Ziyi’s directorial debut came a little late, but it happened at the right time. If she hadn’t been the mother of several children and accumulated a lot of feelings about life, I’m afraid she couldn’t shoot such a story about her mother. Just directing the performances of dozens of children is already one of the biggest challenges in the directorial profession.

Me and my parents, Zhang Ziyi.

>The first two units earned enough tears from the audience. From the third unit "Duck Prophet" directed by Xú Zhēng, the story began to turn to a cheerful comedy tone.

>"Duck Prophet" is a metaphor that makes people clap their hands. It refers to those who are quick-witted, can smell the change of the times keenly, dare to try, and finally occupy the forefront of the times and succeed. For example, the first to buy stocks, the first to start a company, the first to buy a house in Pudong, the first to use a mobile phone, and so on.

>After Xú Zhēng was assigned to the period of reform and opening-up, he didn’t shoot those big entrepreneurs and big shots who had long been household names. Instead, he chose a pioneer who was not to be seen as an advertiser. With a large number of translation shots, retro decoration and comedy scenes with great sense of form, the image of "Duck Prophet", a snobbish, respectable and vivid little guy, was deeply rooted in people’s hearts.

> My Father and I, Duck Prophet, Xú Zhēng, Song Jia and Han Haolin.

>Zhang Yimou’s guest appearance was a stroke of genius, not only because Zhang Dao’s lines and performances were brilliant, but because of the appearance of such an image of a cadre who dared to take responsibility and carry back the pot, the macro policy of vigorously encouraging the development of the private economy and letting a hundred flowers blossom in the market was implemented.

>The Duck Prophet of Me and My Father, with a guest appearance in Zhang Yimou.

>The final advertisement mixed with the material of the development of New China is also very memorable, which opens up the pattern and vision of the whole short film, and it is not the "Duck Prophet" that expresses the power, but everyone in China and this era that has given everyone countless opportunities. Xú Zhēng is really a brilliant Shanghainese.

>In addition, Xú Zhēng is the only director who has participated in the National Day trilogy for three consecutive years, and his films are basically stories about his hometown Shanghai and its surrounding areas. The Duck Prophet and Leap’s scenes and roles have certain continuity. Xú Zhēng made this series into a series that changes every year, expecting more follow-up stories in the future.

>Shen Teng’s A Boys’ Journey, like the unit starring him and Mary in Hometown last year, is the comedy and the finale of the whole film.

>This is a sci-fi comedy, and it is the first comedy in which Shen Teng keeps a straight face all the time.

>Because Shen Teng plays a highly bionic robot, this robot is very advanced on the one hand and has a very fragile achilles heel on the other — — There will be no electricity, afraid of water. Therefore, the sudden intrusion of this robot is not threatening. Even a child can subdue it with a water gun. In order to retrieve the energy ball, the robot can only agree to the condition of "playing the father on the parents’ day" proposed by the little boy.

>"My Father and I" and "My Youth Travel", Shen Teng.

>If an ordinary actor plays a robot, he must play how he plays, while Shen Teng uses accurate and funny body language and lines of "serious nonsense" to make the audience believe the role while laughing. For example, he explained that the belly is to absorb shock and protect the core parts. Parents’ Day uses super powers to satisfy the little boy’s self-esteem, which makes the audience feel good about watching superhero movies.

>Many old acquaintances of Mahua FunAge can be seen in this unit. The actors of Twist have honed excellent comedy proper limit in front of countless stages and cameras, and every burden can be heard. "This power is not mysterious", "You are professional when you look at it, look at the chassis first when you look at the car", and every sentence in the lines is a joke.

>"My Father and I" and "A Young Man’s Journey", Shen Teng and Mary.

>Just like ET and Changjiang No.7, the childlike stories of children and aliens never seem out of date and will always bring people moving. Finally, in 2050, a small reversal was designed, meaning that teenagers are the future of the country, and a happy ending was written for the story of "Father", which tells the intergenerational inheritance.

>The four units, from sadness to joy, are harmonious with each other and memorable.

>Just like ordering a dish of delicious food, eating four dishes at a time, Xian Yi, young and old, is full of fun.

>At present, it is not known whether there will be a new sequel to this series. With the excellent box office and word-of-mouth blessing, it will not be surprising to continue to sit firmly in the National Day file. This IP has become the symbol and representative work of the concept of "New Mainstream Movies in China". Just like the Spring Festival Evening is to the Spring Festival, it is expected to become a fixed program of the National Day holiday, bringing laughter and emotion to the largest audience.

>Jason Wu, Zhang Ziyi, Xú Zhēng and Shen Teng directed Me and My Father.

Hybrid technology of new energy vehicles

  The biggest feature of China’s new energy automobile industry is diversification. Driven by the market and policy, the technical route of new energy vehicles presents the characteristics of multi-headed and blooming, and various explosive models such as pure electric, hybrid and hydrogen fuel cells are constantly emerging. Backed by China’s huge market demand and technical tolerance, various new energy vehicle technical routes compete on stage to compete for the mainstream. In the experience and cleansing of big waves, China’s automobile industry has also entered a period of strategic opportunities of transformation and upgrading, from big to strong.

  Strong competitiveness attracts players to enter the hybrid car

  Affected by rising prices of raw materials and declining subsidies, hybrid cars, once regarded as "transitional products" in the past, have shown strong market competitiveness and attracted more players to enter the competition because of their lack of mileage anxiety and good economy.

  Hybrid models have emerged in large numbers.

  In March, hybrid vehicles in the new energy auto market have mushroomed.

  On March 12, BYD’s 2022 Song MAX DM-i was officially launched, and five versions were launched. After comprehensive subsidies, the price was 145,800 yuan to 172,800 yuan. As a plug-in hybrid vehicle, the Song MAX DM-i has a fuel consumption of 4.4L per 100 km, a battery life of over 1,090 km and an acceleration of only 67.9 seconds per 100 km.

  Subsequently, BYD launched the first model of Ocean Net warship series — — Destroyer 05, the price range is 119,800 yuan to 155,800 yuan. It is understood that destroyer 05 is also equipped with DM-i super hybrid system, and still uses the combination of Xiaoyun plug-in special 1.5L high-efficiency engine, EHS electric hybrid system and super hybrid blade battery. The comprehensive cruising range is more than 1200km when full of oil and electricity. It is worth mentioning that the 120km version of destroyer 05 has also added functions such as VTOL mobile power station and 17kW DC fast charging port, which unlocked more car scenes.

  Then, BYD’s most important super-mixed flagship model, Han DM series, officially opened for pre-sale on March 19. Among them, Han DM-i, which focuses on the ultimate energy saving, has a pure battery life of 242km under NEDC working conditions, a fuel consumption of 4.2L per 100 km, and a comprehensive battery life of 1300km;; Han DM-p, which focuses on excellent performance, takes only 3.7 seconds to accelerate in one hundred kilometers. Under NEDC working conditions, the pure battery life is 202km, and the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is only 5.2L.

  Driven by BYD, Great Wall, Geely and Chery have also joined the development of hybrid vehicles.

  On March 1st, the hybrid model Wei Mocha DHT-PHEV under Great Wall Motor was officially launched, and two models were launched, with the price range of 295,000 yuan to 315,000 yuan. In terms of power, Moka DHT-PHEV is equipped with a DHT plug-in hybrid system consisting of "1.5T gasoline direct injection engine +130KW front drive motor +135KW rear drive motor", which can achieve an ultra-long pure electric cruising range of more than 200km and a comprehensive cruising range of more than 1000km, and the fuel consumption per 100km is only 5.55L, showing the good strength of lemon hybrid DHT platform.

  Chery’s hybrid model Star Road Chasing Wind ET-i was also pre-sold on March 2nd. This car is equipped with Chery’s newly-developed Star Core ET-i full-engine super hybrid technology, which is composed of a 1.5T four-cylinder turbocharged engine and dual motors. The maximum torque can reach 230N·m, the official acceleration is 6.8 seconds, and the comprehensive battery life is as high as 1000km.

  Geely Group also officially listed the hybrid version of Xingyue L Raytheon Hi·X on March 30, and the official guide price was 171,700 yuan to 183,700 yuan. The biggest highlight of the car is that it is equipped with the Geely Lei Shenqing Hi·X hybrid system for the first time, with a comprehensive fuel consumption of 4.3L per 100 kilometers and a maximum cruising range of 1300km.

  Obviously, the hybrid version of Xingyue L Raytheon Hi·X has reached a better balance point in terms of power performance and fuel economy. Its arrival will not only further enrich the car series of Xingyue L, but also help Geely Automobile seize the hybrid market.

  Technology platforms have their own advantages.

  Behind the emergence of a large number of hybrid vehicles, the technological breakthrough of independent brands in the field of new energy vehicles has emerged.

  In the past, the hybrid field has always been dominated by Toyota and Honda in Japan, and other brands are more like "bystanders". Nowadays, with the growing strength of China’s head car enterprises, more and more independent brands begin to show their technological achievements in the hybrid field.

  At the beginning of 2021, BYD officially released the DM-i super hybrid system. As the first domestic hybrid system, it is different from the "oil hybrid" route centered on the engine in structure. BYD DM-i super hybrid system has chosen the "electric hybrid" route with electric drive as the main part, which has made an essential breakthrough in technology.

  Different from most people’s traditional hybrid mode, BYD DM-i super hybrid system is based on super-safe large-capacity battery and high-performance high-power flat-wire motor, which changes the traditional hybrid technology mainly relying on engine and oil, thus greatly reducing fuel consumption. In daily use, when the power is sufficient, this DM-i super hybrid system is mainly driven by high-power and high-efficiency motors, and the main function of the gasoline engine is to generate electricity in the high-efficiency rotating speed region, so as to realize the characteristics of using more electricity, using less oil and using oil efficiently; When the power is insufficient, the DM-i super hybrid becomes a hybrid system with ultra-low fuel consumption.

  At present, BYD’s DM-i super hybrid system has achieved full coverage from cars to SUVs, and almost all of them are "explosive models", which has become a "textbook-level" sales model in the new energy market.

  The lemon hybrid DHT technology introduced by Great Wall Motor at the end of 2020 fully takes into account China’s national conditions, which not only continues the excellent performance of Japanese brands at low speed, but also strengthens the power output at high speed.

  From the structural principle, compared with the single-speed hybrid of Honda i-MMD (when driving at high speed, the engine can only directly drive the vehicle through a fixed gear), the Great Wall lemon hybrid DHT system pioneered the introduction of multi-gear direct drive technology, which can realize two-speed hybrid at high speed. When power is needed, the engine can amplify torque by downshifting to ensure power output, while when cruising is resumed, upshifting will reduce the speed and ensure good economy.

  Compared with lemon hybrid DHT, the official explanation of Chery Kunpeng DHT is more straightforward, which is called "Dedicated Hybrid Transmission", which is also a special gearbox for hybrid power.

  According to the information disclosed at present, the hybrid platform has the first dual-motor driven DHT gearbox in China. Combined with Chery’s FIO fixed-point injection oil-cooled motor technology, TEM ultra-efficient dual-motor power distribution technology, ultra-smooth TSD dual-shaft drive design and other hybrid integrated technologies, even in the low-power mode, the fuel saving rate is still more than 50%, and the energy saving effect is quite eye-catching.

  Different from other brands, Geely has gone in another direction on the road of mixing. In order to pursue the ultimate fuel consumption performance, the Hi·X system of Geely Ray Shenqing did not directly choose the series-parallel hybrid technology, but used the planetary gear system for high-efficiency power splitting.

  First of all, Geely specially developed the DHE15(1.5TD) engine for this hybrid system, and its thermal efficiency reached 43.32%. Secondly, Lei Shenqing Hi·X also owns the world’s first mass-produced 3-speed hybrid transmission — — DHT Pro makes the engine have more chances to be in an efficient working area; In addition, Lei Shenqing Hi X also has a big point of view, that is, its full-speed parallel connection. According to the manufacturer, the model equipped with Lei Shenqing Hi X power can enter the parallel mode when the speed is above 20km/h, realizing the ejection start, which is much lower than the parallel speed of Japanese hybrid cars at least 70km, and the system efficiency is improved by 20%.

  Show strong market competitiveness

  With the blowout of the new energy vehicle market, the hybrid vehicle once considered as a "transitional product" has become one of the main forces in the new energy vehicle market because of the lack of mileage anxiety, good driving experience and policy dividends in some regions.

  According to the data released by China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, in 2021, the sales volume of new energy passenger cars in China reached 3.334 million, up 120.6% year-on-year. Among them, the sales volume of plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEV) reached 600,000, with a growth rate of 121.6%, even slightly exceeding the growth rate of pure electric vehicles.

  After entering 2022, the plug-in hybrid vehicle market is experiencing explosive growth. According to the data of China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, from January to February this year, 160,000 plug-in hybrid vehicles were sold, a year-on-year increase of 2.5 times. Among them, the sales volume of plug-in hybrid vehicles in February was 75,000, a year-on-year increase of 3.4 times.

  In the industry’s view, under the background that pure electric vehicles can’t completely solve the mileage anxiety and face the problems of rising battery cost and tight supply, the "transitional product" of hybrid vehicles has attracted more players to enter the competition and presented a scene of "letting a hundred flowers blossom".

  It is understood that in addition to BYD, Great Wall Motor and Geely, Changan Automobile also launched its own blue whale iDD hybrid system, and on March 10, it listed the plug-in hybrid model Changan UNI-K iDD;; Nezha Auto also announced that it will mass-produce the first extended-range model; The new car jointly launched by Xiaokang and Huawei not long ago — — AITO Wenjie M5 is also an extended-range medium-sized SUV.

  According to industry analysts, although the sales of pure electric vehicles are increasing day by day, due to imperfect supporting facilities and imperfect power battery material system, pure electric vehicles cannot completely replace traditional fuel vehicles in a short time, which gives opportunities for the development of hybrid vehicles. At the same time, car companies have recently launched many explosive hybrid models. While opening up the hybrid car market, they have also undertaken the heavy responsibility of fuel vehicle transformation.

  In this regard, Cui Dongshu, secretary-general of the Association, said recently that "in 2022, there will be more than 500,000 A-class plug-in hybrid vehicles, and plug-in hybrid products of independent brands are worth looking forward to." In his view, plug-in hybrid vehicles will usher in explosive growth in the A-class new energy market: on the one hand, due to rising raw material prices and the impact of subsidies, pure electric vehicles have begun to increase prices, but plug-in hybrid vehicles have been less affected; On the other hand, the rise in oil prices has also caused many consumers to turn to plug-in hybrid vehicles with lower fuel consumption.

  Xu Haidong, deputy chief engineer of China Automobile Association, predicted that "in the next decade, the hybrid market will have a lot of room for growth to make up for the shortcomings of pure electric vehicles in terms of mileage anxiety, insufficient charging convenience and declining battery life in winter."

  Market demand for electric technology for heating and extending range

  China’s new energy automobile industry has entered the stage of "two-wheel drive" in market and policy, and many technical lines show the characteristics of multi-head progress and blooming flowers. According to the insiders, the long-term parallel operation of extended-range electric, hybrid and pure electric is the best route combination to accelerate the large-scale replacement of fuel vehicles by new energy sources and realize China brand surpassing overseas brands. Among them, the extended-range electric provides the solution of "urban electricity consumption and long-distance power generation", which meets the diversified car demand of users and is increasingly valued and recognized by the market.

  Many car companies have laid out extended-range electric vehicles.

  According to public data, in 2021, the sales volume of new energy vehicles in China was 3.521 million, a year-on-year increase of 160%, ranking first in the world for seven consecutive years. It is particularly worth mentioning that compared with the initial period of the Thirteenth Five-Year Plan, the proportion of private consumption of new energy vehicles has increased from 47% to 78%, and the proportion of private consumption in non-restricted cities has increased from 40% to 70%.

  Driven by market and policy, the technical lines of new energy vehicles show the characteristics of multi-head and multi-flowers. Technical lines such as charging and replacing pure electric vehicles, extended-range electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, fuel cell electric vehicles, hydrogen fuel vehicles and methanol vehicles have blossomed in an all-round way, achieving good social and economic benefits, and a number of head brands with excellent technology and market recognition have emerged.

  Regarding the energy utilization line of passenger cars, Li Xiang, chairman of LI, said at the 2022 China Electric Vehicle committee of 100 Forum on March 26: "Today, so many people are willing to buy new energy vehicles because new energy vehicles meet their needs." In Li Xiang’s view, the demand of new energy owners is mainly concentrated in three aspects: first, the convenience of energy acquisition; The second is the cost of energy acquisition; The third is environmental protection.

  Li Xiang calculated an account: "The cost of charging an extended-range electric vehicle at home can be as low as less than a dime per kilometer; The cost of using public charging facilities is about 2 to 4 cents per kilometer; In contrast, the use cost of fuel vehicles reaches 6 to 8 cents per kilometer. If it is combined with the convenience of charging, the advantages of electric vehicles are more obvious. "

  In fact, as an important force in the technical circuit of new energy vehicles, extended-range electric vehicles not only retain the excellent driving performance, low use cost and low-carbon environmental protection characteristics of electric vehicles, but also realize the advantages of endurance and recharge comparable to fuel vehicles, which is getting more and more attention and recognition from the market.

  At present, in addition to LI, Dongfeng, Huawei and other enterprises have laid out the field of extended-range intelligent electric vehicles, such as Li ONE, Lantu FREE, AITO Wenjie M5 and Mocha DHT-PHEV.

  Give the option to the market

  From a policy perspective, supporting the diversification of new energy technology routes has always been the meaning of various industry guidance documents. For example, the "Technology Roadmap 2.0 for Energy-saving and New Energy Vehicles" released not long ago particularly emphasized that the choice of technology route should be given to the market.

  The industry generally believes that technologies such as extended range, pure electricity and plug-in hybrid will coexist for a long time in the future.

  Xu Lin, chief technology officer of Xiaokang Group and president of Celeste (rotating), said: "Pure electric vehicles are more suitable for users who commute mainly in cities, while for users who often have to run long distances, electric vehicles with oil and electricity will be more suitable. We should leave the choice to consumers."

  Liu Hanru, the chief scientist of Geely Commercial Vehicle Group, also said that the new generation of commercial vehicles with green and intelligent technologies as the core will gradually replace traditional fuel vehicle products. As one of the core three-electric systems of electric-driven commercial vehicles, the cost of power battery directly affects the selling price of market terminals. Therefore, commercial vehicle enterprises should also consider more possibilities besides pure electric drive and attach importance to the diversified development of energy technology routes in the process of new energy transformation.

  In this respect, LI has determined several key points since its establishment: firstly, it firmly adopts the technical scheme of pure electric drive and extended-range electric drive; secondly, considering solving users’ mileage anxiety and the convenience of replenishing energy, and effectively reducing carbon emissions, LI has provided a solution of "using electricity in cities and generating electricity for a long distance" to reflect the important characteristics and advantages of extended-range electric technical lines.

  "In the past, the traditional PHEV had a big problem. Its pure battery life was generally only over 50 kilometers, which could not meet the needs of urban use. And when the power is exhausted, the energy consumption of the vehicle will become higher. " Li Xiang explained that through the investigation of urban users, it was found that if the cruising range of pure electricity can exceed 150 kilometers, it can cover all major cities in the world. "So, LI has set its goal to be an extended-range electric vehicle of more than 150 kilometers."

  Based on the success of Li ONE, more and more China automobile brands began to follow the extended-range electric technology, and have determined higher pure electric cruising range. At present, the pure electric cruising range of a large number of PHEV models has reached 150 kilometers or even more than 200 kilometers.

  Extended range electric technology is beneficial to carbon reduction.

  For the extended-range electric technology, some people have also raised questions: Is the extended-range electric vehicle to cater to the "compromise line" of users without charging conditions? How significant is it for reducing carbon emissions?

  In this regard, Li Xiang said that 70% of users in LI have installed home charging piles, and more than 90% have fixed charging conditions. The actual results of operation in the past two years show that in major cities such as Beishangguangshen and Shenzhen, the average mileage of LI car owners is 70%, and the total driving time is over 80%.

  The data is the best proof. According to Li Xiang, in terms of energy conservation and emission reduction, Li ONE’s carbon emissions can be reduced by 65% compared with the same level of fuel vehicles; If you focus on cities like Beijing, carbon emissions can be reduced by 76%.

  It is reported that during this year’s Beijing Auto Show, LI will release its new product Ideal L9. "Through technical optimization, our battery life has reached more than 200 kilometers and the thermal efficiency has increased by 15%." Li Xiang said: "In the future, through a new generation of people’s extended-range technology and a new intelligent operation mode, we are very confident that we can reduce the carbon emission target in cities from the current 76% to more than 90%."

  Li Xiang believes that at present, China’s automobile industry has entered a strategic opportunity period of transformation and upgrading, from large to strong. Driven by strong domestic demand, central electric energy and distributed liquid energy will coexist for a long time in the future, and jointly promote the realization of the "double carbon" goal.

How was elon musk tempered?

(Source: CFP)

Zhang Jiankang/Wen  Walter Isaacson may be the best biography for innovative entrepreneur elon musk. After all, his biographies for Benjamin Franklin, the founding father of the United States, Leonardo da Vinci, physicist Albert Einstein, Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple, and Jennifer Dudner, the winner of the 2020 Nobel Prize in chemistry, have already made him famous.

It may be precisely because of walter isaacson’s reputation that when he called elon musk in 2021 and proposed to give him a biography, Musk readily agreed, including his almost harsh requirements: not only to interview him dozens of times, but also to accompany him for two and a half years, including attending every meeting and visiting every factory; He can’t have any control over this book, including not reading the contents of this book in advance.

Like most celebrity biographies, walter isaacson’s Biography of elon musk tries to make it clear that "genius is just a mortal with a halo" by interviewing Musk’s family, friends, colleagues, ex-wife, investors and even opponents, and gives a reasonable explanation to Musk’s personality, creativity, business decision-making and even emotional world. However, Musk, who finally appeared, is still a "freak" full of contradictions and difficult to understand:

He spent $44 billion to buy social media Twitter, but he never knew why he wanted to buy it;

He didn’t support the Republican Party, but he attacked liberal critics and angered the "awakened" Democrats.

He has always been worried about artificial intelligence, but he founded his own artificial intelligence company X.AI;;

He is good at calculation, but he often makes important decisions by intuition;

He was exhausted by the risk of company collapse, but he was obsessed with the risk.

Even more deadly, he has never been able to establish good interpersonal relationships with people around him. From entrepreneurial partners to long-term subordinates, from pillow lovers to investors, almost all use the meanest language to evaluate him.

What makes a "madman" in the eyes of people who are unpredictable in temperament, often intuitive in decision-making, impulsive in doing things, always thinking about changing the world, extremely cherishing feathers, and not good at getting along with others become the "most important person in design and deployment innovation" in today’s world?

Risk addiction

Musk has an almost paranoid love for the letter "X". When he names his company and even his children, he always gives priority to "X".

"X" stands for unknown and uncertain in most contexts. For Musk, "X" stands for risk.

Roelof Botha, a partner of Sequoia Capital, has invested in Musk’s Paypal. What impressed him most is that unlike most entrepreneurs who always try to reduce risks, Musk "likes to expand risks, cross the rubicon and make everyone no way back".

Peter teale and reid hoffman, partners of Paypal, once thought about writing a book to record their experience of jointly running Paypal with Musk. The name of the chapter about Musk is "Don’t understand ‘ Risk ’ The real meaning of the word ".

However, peter teale soon found himself wrong, and Musk’s Tesla and SpaceX actually succeeded. According to the investment and business philosophy of Silicon Valley, Tesla and SpaceX are simply crazy bets. At that time, few people believed that electric vehicles could become the mainstream of the automobile industry, and the start-up companies that produced electric vehicles closed down one after another. All mainstream car companies in the United States have abandoned the production of electric vehicles, and California has just cancelled the requirement for automobile companies to produce some zero-emission vehicles; And setting up a private rocket company to make mankind a trans-planetary species, not only Paypal’s former colleagues Mark Ulway and reid hoffman think his idea is too crazy, but also rocket engineer Jim cantrell and aerospace engineer who accompanied him to Moscow to buy second-hand rockets — — Later, he became the director of NASA — — Michael Griffin thought he was joking.

But Musk is serious. He entered the arena and succeeded. After three rocket test failures, SpaceX finally sent a rocket numbered Falcon 1 into the scheduled orbit for the fourth time, and created one history after another: successfully launched the first privately made rocket; The rocket is recycled and reused for the first time; Became the first private company to perform specific tasks for NASA and the Ministry of National Defense through bidding, and promoted NASA and the Ministry of National Defense to replace the cost-plus contracts commonly used in the past; Became the first private company to build and launch communication satellites, and built an outer space internet; Became the first company to build a giant manned spacecraft and deliver materials and personnel to Mars … … Tesla not only completely broke the stereotype that electric cars are destined to be golf carts, but also attracted the attention of a large number of dignitaries, such as California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, famous directors Joe Francis and Steve Jobs. Tesla was praised as the most valuable and revolutionary automobile company in the world by several major American media.

Watching two companies that no one is optimistic about succeed, "then you have to say to yourself: ‘ I think Elon understands risk better than anyone else. ’” Peter teale sighed.

A sense of mission

Peter teale is one of the few former colleagues who can keep in touch with Musk for a long time. When SpaceX failed to test the rocket for three times in a row and was in danger of bankruptcy, it was the founder fund he managed that invested 20 million dollars to alleviate SpaceX’s urgent needs. Therefore, he was familiar with the ups and downs that Musk experienced on his entrepreneurial road, especially when Tesla and SpaceX both fell into financial difficulties in 2008. At that time, people around Musk advised him to give up one to save the other, but he told the rocket engineer — — Mark Jonkosa, his most loyal deputy: You can’t give up Tesla, and giving up is "equal to telling the world again ‘ Electric cars are unreliable ’ A world driven by sustainable energy will never be realized "; He can’t give up SpaceX either. "Then we may never become an interplanetary species."

Ashley Vance, author of Iron Man in Silicon Valley: The Adventure Life of elon musk, commented that Musk "has a strong sense of mission, which is far beyond most of us" and "is consistent". Walter isaacson and Ashley Vance have the same view. He believes that "Musk is more driven by a greater sense of mission than most great innovators".

It is with a strong sense of mission that Musk survived the most difficult period on the road to entrepreneurship.

Tesla’s crisis has not been completely lifted. In 2012, Musk focused on artificial intelligence. He accepted that artificial intelligence may evolve into super intelligence and even eventually replace human beings. He had a fierce conflict with his friend Larry Page, the founder of Google for more than 10 years, because Page believed that even if the intelligence or even consciousness of artificial intelligence surpassed that of human beings one day, it would only be the next stage of evolution. Musk decided to take action against Google and improve the safety factor of artificial intelligence. He joined forces with peter teale, reid hoffman and Sam altman, the owner of software company, to set up a non-profit artificial intelligence research laboratory named OpenAI. As the name of the lab indicates, OpenAI software is open source, just like Linux. Linux has successfully broken the absolute dominant position of Microsoft Windows on microcomputer operating platform. Musk hopes that OpenAI can counter Google’s increasingly powerful dominant position in artificial intelligence through open source code, so that artificial intelligence is not controlled by any individual or company, and the probability of safe development of artificial intelligence is improved.

The interest in artificial intelligence prompted Musk to launch a series of related projects: Neuralink, with the goal of implanting microchips into human brains to prevent human intelligence from being surpassed by artificial intelligence; Optimus, a humanoid robot; Dojo, a supercomputer that can use millions of videos to train artificial neural networks to simulate the human brain; And Tesla’s autopilot system.

In 2018, there was an irreconcilable conflict between Musk and the co-founder of OpenAI: Musk wanted to incorporate OpenAI, but the actual head of the laboratory, Sam altman, set up a profit-making department that could raise equity funds to speed up the development of the laboratory. Musk chose to part ways with OpenAI and founded his own chat robot company X.AI to promote the development of its general artificial intelligence business as a whole. Musk told Isaacson: "The total amount of human intelligence is entering a platform period because people don’t have enough children. At the same time, computer intelligence has grown exponentially. " The implication is that he decided to start X.AI, partly out of concern about the shortage of population.

Patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder

In Musk’s heart, there are some characters who will stimulate him, darken his character and arouse his ruthless and angry side. His father, errol, is undoubtedly the number one among those people, but surprisingly, the number two is Martin Eberhart, who founded Tesla with him.

Eberhart and Musk were originally like-minded comrades-in-arms: both of them are hard-working, highly nervous and detail-oriented engineers, both of whom are passionate about electric vehicles, and both believe that high-value cars should be built first and then turned to mass-market models. However, the relationship between them did not develop according to the established script, which led them to turn against each other, but they actually fought for the sense of existence: Musk insisted that he was the co-founder of Tesla, and Tesla’s foreign propaganda often only mentioned Martin Eberhart’s name, but rarely mentioned elon musk, and was occasionally mentioned as an "early investor". However, Musk became more and more involved in Tesla’s design and engineering, even to the point of detail, which also aroused the dissatisfaction of Eberhart and two other members of the founding team, Mark Tapenning and ian wright.

Musk is a person who cherishes feathers extremely. When he learns that he is not worthy of being called the founder, his blood will naturally surge. When he was running Paypal, he got into trouble with his partners and even went to court because he was not regarded as the founder. Now the same script is staged in Tesla. With the support of the board of directors, he drove Eberhart away, and finally he took the helm himself, completely according to his own wishes, and built what he thought was a stunning, perfect and affordable electric car.

Larry Ellision, the founder of Oracle Bone Inscriptions, is a director of Apple and Tesla, and is familiar with Jobs and Musk. He once made a comparison between Jobs and Musk: "Obsessive-compulsive disorder is one of the reasons for their success, because they are obsessed with solving a problem and will not give up until they reach their goal." However, the two are different. Musk is not only obsessed with product design, but also with the research on basic science, engineering and manufacturing issues. Jobs only needs to do the design concept and software engineering well, and the manufacturing process is outsourced. He likes to visit Apple’s design studio every day, but he has never been to Apple’s manufacturing factory. Musk has taken on all aspects from design, manufacturing, supply chain to giant factories. In contrast, Musk spends more time patrolling the assembly line than he does visiting the design studio.

From July 2017 to the end of June 2018, the story of Musk saving Tesla again provided the best footnote for Larry Ellision’s comments.

In July 2017, Tesla Model3 started mass production. By calculating the cost, management expenses and cash flow, Musk came to a conclusion that in order to build an affordable electric car, it is necessary to improve the production efficiency and dilute the production cost of each car, specifically, to produce 5,000 cars per week. Otherwise, the company will run out of funds. But the reality is that the designer of the super factory that produces batteries in Nevada told Musk that it can only produce up to 18,000 battery packs per week; Fremont Vehicle Assembly Plant, located in the industrial fringe of Silicon Valley, can only produce 2,000 Model3 vehicles per week. Musk decided to personally take the lead and focus on the workshop work. He used the workshop as a temporary home and office, and only rested for about 5 hours every day. The rest time was either staring at the display screen on the wall or running back and forth on the assembly line. When problems affecting production efficiency were found, they were solved immediately, including replacing personnel, dismantling automation equipment that was not conducive to improving efficiency, removing unnecessary configurations, and even setting up a temporary tent to accommodate a new vehicle assembly line. In the spring of 2018, the production bottleneck problem of Nevada battery factory was finally alleviated. On July 1 of that year, the goal of producing 5000 cars per week was finally realized.

The power of a free competitive market

When discussing Musk’s entrepreneurial history, few people explicitly mentioned a fundamental question: Why did Musk quickly establish one industrial ecosystem after another?

It took SpaceX 9 years, Tesla 4 years, SolarCity 11 years to establish a complete supply chain, formally put into commercial production and operation, expand investment, and form a market scale that can provide stable profits, from establishing ideas, investing the first money, recruiting, designing and building factories, designing and making samples. …

Establishing an industrial ecological circle is far more complicated and difficult than starting a business: starting a business often means that you already have an industrial ecological environment, and your business only needs to adapt to it; Establishing an industrial ecosystem means cultivating an industrial chain and market environment from a blank.

Fortunately for Musk, when he decided to start a business, the related industries in the United States were not blank. For example, private space industry.

When Musk wanted to start a rocket company in 2001, the private rocket business in the United States had become a climate, and Los Angeles in Southern California had gathered a number of aerospace companies, such as Lockheed Martin, Boeing and TRW. They not only cultivated a large number of aerospace talents, but also cultivated a strong aerospace culture. Therefore, when Musk needs to build a professional technical team to design and manufacture rockets, he can quickly find talented engineers like Tom Mueller, Mark Jonkosa, Bulent altan and Jamie holman and efficient managers like Tim Buza, chris thompson, Gwen Shotwell and joe allen. When SpaceX was in financial difficulties, the founder foundation led by peter teale refused to invest in Tesla because it was "clearly skeptical about clean energy technology", and was willing to invest in SPACEX for 20 million dollars.

A more important background for the development of SpaceX is that at the end of 2009, then President Obama accepted the advice of Lori Garver, a space consultant who was later appointed as the deputy director of NASA, and canceled the new space exploration plan called Constellation Plan, which in turn allowed private companies to develop rockets and let them transport astronauts into space. NASA cooperates with the commercial sector to jointly develop space exploration by purchasing space transportation services instead of space vehicles. As a direct result of this, various aerospace companies have launched fierce competition around rocket design and construction, and private rocket companies have thus gained huge development space.

On September 28th, 2008, the Falcon 1 rocket was successfully launched for the fourth time, which was regarded by American public opinion as an event to save the future of American private space industry. After Obama took office, he immediately canceled the space shuttle program. As an alternative, NASA launched a bidding activity called "Commercial Replenishment Service Contract", allowing private aerospace companies to carry out the task of transporting goods to the space station. SpaceX finally won a contract worth $1.6 billion. At that time, SpaceX was in a critical period when funds were not available. NASA’s contract played the role of savior, and SpaceX’s success further strengthened the Obama administration’s determination to encourage private companies to participate in space exploration. In April 2010, Obama visited SpaceX’s rocket launch base in Cape Canaveral to show his support for private companies to participate in space exploration.

Embrace globalization

Musk once made a decision that has a key impact on Tesla’s success and even the development of the entire automobile industry: car companies should produce key parts as much as possible, instead of purchasing hundreds of parts from independent suppliers and then assembling a car. His super battery factory and vehicle assembly line therefore chose to settle near Nevada and Silicon Valley instead of overseas. Isaacson believes that Musk’s move is anti-globalization.

Isaacson’s interpretation is obviously contradictory to one of his previous comments. Earlier, he said that Musk’s move was to control his own destiny and better control the quality, cost and supply chain of vehicles.

Musk will certainly not be an anti-globalization element. On the contrary, he is a passionate embrace of globalization.

In January 2005, the first Roadster made by Tesla was assembled with parts produced by global suppliers: the battery was purchased from Asia, the body was purchased from Lotus, a British boutique sports car manufacturer, the power transmission system was purchased from AC Propulsion Company of the United States, and the transmission was purchased from Germany. Although the plan was formulated by Eberhart and Tapenning, Musk did not raise any objection at first, and only later found that excessive reliance on purchasing parts was not conducive to controlling the quality of the whole vehicle, he made the above decision.

The key parts are designed and produced by ourselves, which means that the cost will rise. Whether a start-up automobile company can support it is indeed an unavoidable problem. In the second half of 2008, Tesla had a financial problem. If it can’t get the capital in time, it may go bankrupt at the end of the year. In June 2009, Tesla obtained a loan of 465 million US dollars from the Ministry of Energy, but the first fund was not put in place until early 2010. Therefore, what really saved Tesla was a $50 million capital injection from Daimler in Germany in May 2009. In October 2008, Musk visited Daimler’s headquarters in Stuttgart, Germany. After learning that the other party was very interested in electric vehicles, he immediately returned to the United States and assembled an electric version of smart with the fuel version of smart body and Roadster’s motor and battery pack to meet the inspection of Daimler team. The Daimler team was satisfied with the emergency smart and quickly completed the capital injection, which was the first time that Masket saved Tesla with international funds.

Although Musk emphasized that the key components were produced by himself, when Tesla planned to launch Model3 for the mass market, and the demand for batteries might increase by 10 times, Musk still thought of international cooperation. He chose to establish a joint venture with battery supplier Matsushita of Japan. A factory will produce battery units by Panasonic and then assemble them into battery packs by Tesla. Musk persuaded Matsushita’s new president, Tsuga Hiroshi, to invest 40% to build a super factory for producing batteries.

Tesla’s next problem is to expand the global market, and the China market is undoubtedly a highland that must be occupied. At first, the market expansion effect was not good. He changed two managers in China and even fired the entire senior management team, which still didn’t help. Finally, Musk decided to set up a factory in China directly. In October 2018, Tesla got more than 200 acres of land in Shanghai Lingang Equipment Industrial Park and began to build a super factory in Shanghai. In October of the following year, the first batch of Chinese-made Tesla went offline smoothly. In less than two years, Shanghai Super Factory has produced more than half of Tesla in the world.

Embracing globalization helped Tesla tide over the difficulties for the fourth time.

Maybe some friends are unfamiliar with the name "Guoya". In fact, the product naming of Hongqi has changed. The red flag LS7 has become a red flag national glory, the red flag L5 has become a red flag national gift, the red flag L1 has become a red flag national elegance, and there is also a light passenger named Hongqi Guoyue. Maybe all models of Hongqi Automobile facing the official market will be named "Guo X" in the future. Next, let’s take a look at Hongqi Guoya with me.

The new car adopts a two-color body design, which improves the recognition. However, the front face design of this car is different from that of Hongqi H9 and other models. It does not use through LED daytime running lights, but uses irregularly designed headlight groups, which are integrated with LED daytime running lights, making it more restrained. Its middle net has a large size, and its interior is decorated with "straight waterfall" chrome trim strips, while its lower grille is decorated with lattice trim strips. The overall shape is like a smiling mouth, and there are hollowed-out designs on both sides of the front enclosure, decorated with petal-shaped patterns, which is very elegant. In addition, the new car also adopts the standard design, which is a red flag fluttering in the wind, and has been on par with Rolls-Royce and Bentley.

On the side of the car, the rim is designed with dense spokes, the "Golden Sunflower" logo in the middle part is very eye-catching, and there is a "red flag" on the front fender, which improves the recognition of the car side. The side shape of the new car mainly reflects the sense of stability and atmosphere, which is in line with the positioning of the administrative model. In terms of size, the new car has a length of 5353mm, a width of 1998mm, a height of 1511mm and a wheelbase of 3260mm. It is a large car (D-class car), which is at the same level as Mercedes-Benz S-class, BMW 7 Series and Audi A8L.

At the rear of the car, the word "red flag" is the calligraphy of a generation of great men, and it really has the feeling of "putting pen to paper to shock the wind and rain", which is very majestic. The taillights of the new car adopt a vertical shape, and the design of the internal light strip and the front enclosure are very similar, forming a trend of echo from end to end, and the brightness of the middle part is higher, forming a radiation effect. On the rear bumper, a penetrating width indicator lamp and an exhaust tailpipe with two sides are integrated, which makes the rear of the car look more sporty. On the whole, the design of the new car is very domineering, and there is a sense of sight without anger and self-respect.

In the interior part, the circular steering wheel adopts a two-spoke design, and takes care of the interior style through two colors. At the bottom of the right side of the steering wheel, there is an electronic pocket, and there is a very delicate quartz clock above the center console, and then there is a through air conditioner outlet. It can be seen that the center console, the front platform and the door panel are decorated with a large number of solid wood plaques, which makes the interior look more exquisite. The new car is also equipped with a fan-shaped LCD instrument panel and an embedded central control screen, which enhances the technological atmosphere of the interior.

The new car adopts a 2+2 4-seat layout. It can be seen that the rear seats are very heavy and equipped with leg rests, which is expected to have extremely high ride comfort. There is a control screen between the two independent seats, which is expected to support the function of seat ventilation/heating/massage, and there is a lot of space inside after lifting the rear armrest, which is expected to be a car refrigerator. The trunk volume of the new car is very advantageous, with regular shapes on both sides and great depth, which can accommodate several large suitcases.

Has the embassy relocation just begun? Israel says ten countries are planning to follow the example of the United States

  Guatemala, a Central American country, followed the example of the United States and announced that it would move its embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, which made the Israeli government "greatly encouraged". Israel’s Deputy Foreign Minister said on the 25th that the U.S. government’s actions would "set off a wave" and at least 10 governments were considering moving their embassies.

  The move announced by the US government to move its embassy in Israel to Jerusalem has been widely opposed by the international community. Meshal Salami, president of the Arab Parliamentary Union, said on the 25th that Guatemala was forced by the US to "follow the trend" first.

  According to foreign media reports, Guatemalan President Jimmy Morales announced on the 24th of this month that Guatemala decided to move its embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. (Source: vision china)

  ["Follow the wind" was severely approved]

  Guatemalan President jimmy morales confirmed on the 24th that he had instructed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to move the embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Guatemala thus became the first country to follow the example of the United States.

  Marty Cohen, the Israeli ambassador to Guatemala, later told Israeli army radio that the two sides have not set a timetable for moving the embassy, but it should be after the US embassy moves to Jerusalem. American officials say it will take at least two years to move the museum.

  Regarding this decision, Palestinian Foreign Minister Riad Malki said that Morales "forced his country to choose the wrong history, which is a flagrant violation of international law".

  Salami, president of the Arab Parliamentary Union, decided that Guatemala was forced by the US to announce the relocation of the embassy, but this would not change anything. After meeting with Arab League Secretary General ahmed ali abul gheit, he told reporters: "We have witnessed the opposition of the international community to the US recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel."

  The United Nations General Assembly held an emergency special session on the 21st, and adopted a resolution with 128 votes in favor, 9 votes against and 35 abstentions, declaring that any decision and action claiming to change the status of Jerusalem was "invalid". Before the emergency special session of the General Assembly, the United States threatened to reduce economic aid to countries that voted against the United States. In the General Assembly vote, Guatemala voted against it. This Central American country has long received American economic assistance.

  [Ten countries intend to follow suit? 】

  Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu welcomed Guatemala’s move on 25th: "As I said, other countries will recognize Jerusalem and announce that they will move their embassies there. Now a second country has done this … … This is just the beginning. "

  In an interview with a radio station, Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovli said that "we are in contact with at least 10 countries, including European countries", and the statement of US President Donald Trump will "trigger a wave".

  Hotovli did not specify which countries have this consideration. However, sources outside Israel Public Radio reported that these countries were Honduras, the Philippines, Romania and South Sudan. The Associated Press reported on the 24th that the Czech Republic is also considering it.

  At this stage, no country has set up an embassy in Israel in Jerusalem. Reuters reported that before 1980, a few countries, such as Guatemala, set up embassies there, but at the call of a UN Security Council resolution in 1980, these countries moved their embassies to Tel Aviv one after another.
