If the agency fee exceeds the limit standard, it shall be paid by the successful bidder (transaction) in principle.

The agency shall clearly indicate the charging method and standard of agency fees in the procurement documents, and disclose the charging situation of this project together with the result of winning the bid (transaction), including the specific charging standard and amount.

(6) Refine and optimize the setting of evaluation factors. All units and procurement agencies should scientifically set evaluation factors and further refine the quantitative evaluation factors according to the project demand characteristics and performance objectives. The objective evaluation factors should be set with fixed scores, while the subjective evaluation factors should refine the scores and reduce the discretionary space.

(7) Standardize the management of margin revenue and expenditure. All units and procurement agencies should strictly implement the provisions of "Tongcaigou [2020] No.30" to cancel the collection of bid bond for government procurement; If it is really necessary to collect the performance bond, the supplier shall be allowed to choose to pay or submit it in non-cash forms such as check, draft, promissory note and guarantee; In the procurement contract, the way, time, conditions and non-return of the performance bond are agreed, and the liability for breach of contract for overdue return of the performance bond is clarified.

(eight) the full implementation of government procurement information disclosure. All units should conscientiously implement the Regulations on the Implementation of the Government Procurement Law, the Notice on Doing a Good Job in the Disclosure of Government Procurement Information (Su Cai Gou [2015] No.51), and the Notice on Enabling the Self-publishing Management System of Decentralized Government Procurement Information (Tong Cai Gou [2018] No.32). Notice on Forwarding the Format Specification of Government Procurement Announcement and Publicity Information (2020 Edition) (Tongcaigou [2020] No.10) and other documents, the competent budget unit shall be responsible for reviewing the units under its jurisdiction that can self-publish decentralized government procurement information, and units and projects that are not applicable to the government procurement law shall not publish government procurement information on the municipal government procurement network.

(9) Strengthen the handling of government procurement disputes. Procurement units and procurement agencies shall handle government procurement disputes in accordance with the Government Procurement Law and its implementing regulations, Measures for Questions and Complaints in Government Procurement (Order No.94 of the Ministry of Finance), and Notice on Forwarding the Handling Process of Questions in Government Procurement (No.33 [2018] of Tong Cai Gou). For those who do not violate laws and regulations, we must do a good job in communication, coordination and resolution, ensure that we can answer questions within 3 working days, answer questions within 7 working days, and cooperate with the financial department to investigate and handle complaints.

National Bureau of Statistics: Starting from August, the release of the urban survey unemployment rate of young people of different ages nationwide will be suspended.

  CCTV News:The State Council Office held a press conference on the operation of the national economy in July 2023. Fu Linghui, spokesperson of the National Bureau of Statistics and director of the National Economic Statistics Department, introduced at the meeting that since August this year, the release of the urban survey unemployment rate of young people of all ages in China will be suspended, mainly because the economy and society are constantly developing and changing, the statistical work needs to be continuously improved, and the labor force survey statistics need to be further improved and optimized. For example, in recent years, among the young people in cities and towns in China, the number of students at school has been expanding. In 2022, there were more than 96 million urban youths aged 16-24 in China, including more than 65 million students. The main task of students in school is to study. Whether students looking for jobs before graduation should be included in the labor force survey and statistics, there are different views in various sectors of society, which need further study. For another example, with the improvement of the education level of Chinese residents, the study time of young people in school has increased. In the labor force survey statistics, the definition of the age range of young people also needs further study.

  In view of these situations, the National Bureau of Statistics will conduct in-depth research to further improve the labor force survey statistics and better reflect the employment situation. We welcome valuable opinions from all walks of life and make joint efforts to promote the continuous improvement of statistical work and better serve economic and social development.

Look at the "vitality" in the holiday market | The National Day is not far away, and the local tour presents multiple highlights.

CCTV News:This year’s National Day holiday, local tours and outings that do not travel far and gather together have become the choices of many tourists. After punching in the old city, I always wanted to see the exhibitions that I didn’t see when I went to the museum. The local people traveled locally, which made many tourists discover the "beauty" that they hadn’t found around them.

During the holiday, in the Jinsha Site Museum in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, the dual cultural experience of ancient Shu civilization and shellfish world met the audience for the first time, and more than 1,200 precious shellfish specimens and related cultural relics were presented in a concentrated way. Visitors can see 29 rare shellfish specimens such as clams and hundreds of other kinds of shellfish at a glance, and they are accompanied by an immersive exhibition hall for landscaping, which has become a lot of local treasures.

In addition to exploring the wonderful shellfish world, in the permanent exhibition area of Jinsha Site Museum, precious cultural relics unearthed from Jinsha Site, such as the golden ornaments of the sun god bird, the bronze figurine and the ten-section jade cong, also attracted many visitors.

During the "Eleventh" period, autumn is crisp, and local outdoor activities are more favored by consumers. In Laojun Mountain Scenic Area in Luoyang, Henan Province, the primeval forest at the top of the mountain is dense, and the pleasant climate attracts a large number of tourists to climb the mountain and look far.

In Hainan, scenic spots such as Luhuitou and Dongdongtian in Sanya are open to citizens free of charge. In the Panda Exhibition Hall of Hainan Tropical Wildlife Park in Haikou, the staff put Wowotou, bamboo shoots and carrots together in bamboo baskets in advance. At this time, the panda Shunshun is enjoying its "hot pot" meal. The five-pointed star hanging in the exhibition hall and the panda display board printed with the words "Happy National Day" have added a lot of festive atmosphere.

The monitoring results in china tourism academy show that during the National Day holiday this year, the national tourism market is dominated by local leisure and short-distance tourism. Among short-distance tourism, suburban tourism accounts for about 36%. The booking of train lines in Zhejiang, Guangdong, Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan and other provinces is hot. From the time point of view, the number of people who travel within three days of the National Day holiday is expected to account for about 55%, which means that the number of people who travel for seven days is divided into short trips and multiple trips.

Is the barbecue in Zibo "cold"?

  Recently, there are always people on the Internet who say that the barbecue in Zibo is "cold". There are three reasons: first, the passenger flow has dropped; second, some barbecue shops have begun to transfer their facades; third, the popularity of online search is not as good as before.

  It is better to return to normal than to be "cool". At present, although the barbecue in Zibo is "cooling down", it does not mean that there is no heat. The owner of the barbecue shop reported that although the current passenger flow is not as good as the peak period in April and May, it is still much more than before the "fire"; Although the booking volume of hotels and homestays has declined, the booking situation of the Dragon Boat Festival holiday not long ago is still considerable. It can be seen that the heat of barbecue is still warming many operators in this city.

  The popularity of barbecue in Zibo attracted many entrants. According to the data, from March 1st to June 18th, there were 694 barbecue-related enterprises in Zibo, among which there were veterans in the catering industry and novices. Under the baptism of the market tide, there are shops that have always maintained a high standard of taste and service and are still full of passengers; There are also those who lack stable customers and good word-of-mouth support and can only transfer the facade.

  Zibo barbecue has become a phenomenal "national feast", which is the result of spontaneous promotion by tourists, rapid response by the government, active maintenance by citizens and other factors, and the help of network traffic can not be ignored.

  The speed of creating hot spots on the Internet is often very fast. The online "mountain-like tsunami" traffic is transformed into offline short-time passenger flow, which tests the city’s ability to provide a perfect business reception environment and high-quality public services. Once it fails to meet the expectations of tourists, the voice of praise may turn into complaints, which is an examination question that all online celebrity cities need to face. In addition, the Internet traffic economy has the characteristics of rapid upgrading and short life cycle. Not only in Zibo, but also in other online celebrity cities, it is difficult to keep the heat at its peak all the time, and the change of "You sing and I come on stage" is not uncommon in cyberspace. When the flow ebbs, how to cultivate the new kinetic energy of sustainable development is another question for online celebrity. A single barbecue may not be able to meet the experience needs of tourists’ differentiated and diversified leisure tourism. There are many articles to be done from these perspectives, such as exploring tourism resources, enriching the supply of tourism products and injecting the soul into tourism with culture.

  A nationwide barbecue made more people know about Zibo, and its good consumption environment and excellent public services made it famous. For this newly-built city of online celebrity, people’s continuous concern is the most precious wealth for the long-term development of Zibo.

Imitate short video, lose your life, risk short video, who will supervise it

  The girl was burned and died after imitating a short video. Nearly 20 days later, "Office Xiao Ye" made its first sound, and the incident is still fermenting. No matter who is responsible for it for the time being, it did start with a dangerous short video. While sighing for the two girls, we should also reflect on the production and dissemination methods of short videos that only pay attention to traffic gimmicks and ignore risk warnings.

  In the current era of short videos, everyone can make videos as bloggers, especially some "life tips" videos with a different approach, which are not only popular, but also easy to be imitated by viewers. However, minors do not have enough ability to judge the right and wrong of things around them and are prone to danger. It is far from enough to rely on a simple "operation is dangerous, please do not imitate". How to ensure the safe and healthy viewing of minors is a problem that short video producers and platforms must face.

  The occurrence of tragedy once again sounded the alarm. Nowadays, hundreds of millions of producers and short videos are active in the network. Short video platforms should also take the responsibility of auditing and be responsible to users while obtaining traffic from them. They should not ignore safety, health and ethical barbaric growth. Moreover, this needs to attract the attention of the whole society and relevant departments. A series of systems, such as network blacklist, real-name registration system and content grading, need to be introduced urgently, so that the development of short video can be regulated by rules and laws, and if necessary, it should be regulated by powerful administrative means to avoid more tragedies.

Heavy! Regarding Sino-US economic and trade frictions, China issued a white paper giving 13 authoritative conclusions.

        Heavy! Against the background that the US keeps escalating the Sino-US trade friction despite its opposition, the Press Office in the State Council, China today released a white paper entitled "Facts about Sino-US Trade Friction and China’s Position". This nearly 40,000-word document clarified the key facts in Sino-US economic and trade with detailed data and cases, strongly refuted a series of untenable arguments of the US government, and fully expounded China’s position and attitude. On Sino-US economic and trade frictions, the white paper puts forward 13 authoritative conclusions!

image.png

Conclusion 1. The "American Loss Theory" is untenable.

Since the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States, bilateral economic and trade relations have continued to develop, and cooperation in trade and investment has achieved fruitful results, achieving complementary advantages and mutual benefit. China has benefited a lot from it, and the United States has also gained extensive and huge economic benefits from it, sharing the opportunities and achievements brought by the development of China.

On the whole, Sino-US economic and trade cooperation is a win-win relationship, not a zero-sum game. American enterprises and nationals have benefited from it, and the "American loss theory" claimed by some Americans is untenable.

Second, it is unfair to blame China for the imbalance of trade in goods between China and the United States.

The imbalance of trade in goods between China and the United States is more a natural result of the independent choice of the market under the American economic structure and the existing comparative advantage pattern. To solve this problem, both sides need to make joint efforts to carry out structural adjustment. It is unfair and unreasonable for the United States to ignore many factors that affect Sino-US economic and trade relations, unilaterally emphasize the imbalance of trade in goods between the two countries, and blame China.

Third, the so-called "fair trade" in the United States will cause a wider range of unfairness

The so-called "fair trade" emphasized by the current American government is not based on international rules, but on the premise of "American priority" and aims at safeguarding America’s own interests.

The "fair trade" and "reciprocal opening" advocated by the United States deny the objective differences in the development stages, resource endowments and advantageous industries of various countries, and ignore the development rights of developing countries, which will inevitably have an impact on the economies and industries of developing countries, resulting in a wider range of unfairness, and ultimately will not be conducive to American enterprises to expand the international market and share the development opportunities of developing countries.

The so-called "compulsory technology transfer" in China is a complete distortion of the facts.

Since China’s reform and opening-up, in order to expand emerging markets, save production expenses, realize economies of scale and extend the time of technology profit, foreign enterprises have taken the initiative to establish cooperative partnership with China enterprises, signed contracts and transferred their production capacity and orders to China, which is entirely a voluntary behavior of enterprises based on commercial interests. We should not distort the original voluntary trading activities of both parties into compulsory technology transfer because of the technological progress of enterprises in China, which is neither in line with historical facts nor a betrayal of the spirit of contract.

The U.S. government calls the voluntary cooperation of foreign-invested enterprises to establish partnership with China enterprises, transfer or license their technology and jointly obtain commercial returns in the China market "compulsory technology transfer", which is a complete distortion of the facts.

Conclusion 5. The accusation of the United States against intellectual property protection in China is contrary to the facts.

China has a clear and firm attitude towards the protection of intellectual property rights, and has continuously strengthened protection at the legislative, law enforcement and judicial levels, and achieved remarkable results. The recent accusation of the US government against China’s intellectual property protection is contrary to the facts, completely obliterating China’s great efforts and achievements in intellectual property protection.

Conclusion 6. China government’s support for enterprises to go global is not a government action to promote enterprises to acquire advanced technology from other countries through mergers and acquisitions.

Like other countries and regions in the world, China government supports powerful and qualified enterprises to invest abroad and expand the international market on the premise of observing the laws and regulations of the host country and international rules, and the government provides convenient services for enterprises’ foreign investment cooperation. The United States regards the China government’s support for enterprises to go abroad as a government action to promote enterprises to acquire advanced technology from other countries through mergers and acquisitions, which lacks factual basis.

Conclusion 7. There are a large number of investment and trade restrictions policies and behaviors in the United States.

There are a large number of investment and trade restrictions policies and behaviors in the United States that distort market competition, hinder fair trade and split the global industrial chain, which are detrimental to the rule-based multilateral trading system and seriously affect the normal development of Sino-US economic and trade relations.

Conclusion 8. The international trade friction provoked by the United States will ultimately harm the long-term interests of the United States.

As the main founder and participant of the international economic order and multilateral trading system after World War II, the United States should take the lead in observing multilateral trade rules and properly handle trade frictions with other member countries through the dispute settlement mechanism under the framework of the World Trade Organization, which is also a clear commitment made by the US government to the international community. However, since taking office, the new American administration has unilaterally emphasized "American priority", pursued unilateralism and economic hegemonism, abandoned international commitments, and provoked international trade frictions in all directions, which not only harmed the interests of China and other countries, but also damaged the international image of the United States itself, shaken the foundation of the global multilateral trading system, and will ultimately harm the long-term interests of the United States.

Conclusion 9. The extreme trade protection measures taken by the United States hurt global economic and trade relations.

A series of extreme trade protection measures adopted by the US government have destroyed the international economic order, harmed global economic and trade relations including Sino-US economic and trade exchanges, impacted the global value chain and the international division of labor system, interfered with market expectations, and triggered violent shocks in international finance and commodity markets, which has become the biggest uncertain factor and risk source for global economic recovery.

Conclusion X. China is confident, determined and capable of coping with various risk challenges.

For the trade war, China is unwilling to fight, not afraid to fight, and has to fight if necessary. We have strong economic resilience and broad market space, the industrious and intelligent people of China, and the support of all countries in the world that oppose protectionism, unilateralism and hegemonism. We are confident, determined and capable of coping with various risk challenges. No external factor can prevent China from developing and growing.

The healthy and stable development of Sino-US economic and trade relations is expected by the international community.

Sino-US economic and trade frictions are related to global economic stability and prosperity, and to world peace and development, and should be properly resolved. Peace between China and the United States is beneficial, but fighting is harmful. It is in the fundamental interests of the two peoples and the common interests of the people of the world to maintain healthy and stable economic and trade relations between the two sides, which is expected by the international community.

Conclusion XII. The open door of China will not be closed, but will only grow wider and wider.

Reform and opening up is the basic national policy of China and the fundamental driving force for the development of China. The direction of China’s reform will not be reversed, but will continue to deepen. China’s open door will not be closed, but will only get wider and wider. China will continue to deepen reform and open wider to the outside world in accordance with the established deployment and pace, comprehensively promote the rule of law and build a socialist country ruled by law.

Conclusion XIII. China adheres to the general trend and the right path and unswervingly upholds the multilateral trading system.

If you get the word, you will get more help, but if you lose it, you will get less help. Faced with the international situation of increasing uncertainties, instability and insecurity, China Do not forget your initiative mind has always walked with the world, followed the general trend, upheld justice and followed the right path, unswervingly safeguarded the multilateral trading system, unswervingly promoted the reform of the global governance system, always been a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development and a defender of the international order, and unswervingly promoted the building of a community of human destiny.

FSD’s countdown to China, can Tesla recover lost ground?

In April this year, Tesla CEO Musk lightning visited China, and his arrival also reminded the outside world of the discussion and speculation about Tesla’s fully autonomous driving (hereinafter referred to as "FSD") entering China.

In fact, there are many challenges that FSD needs to face when entering China, including data and privacy protection, whether domestic users can accept the charging model, and the approval of relevant departments. There have been many unknowns in this matter.

However, just as the new energy vehicle circle intends to improve its smart driving ability while waiting for the FSD to enter China, Musk said at the just-held conference call of Tesla’s second quarter earnings report that the FSD is expected to be approved in China and Europe before the end of this year.

Under this circumstance, the entry of FSD into China is no longer a "pie", but a "countdown" is officially started. If it goes well, domestic Tesla owners are expected to be able to pay for the use of FSD after half a year. Can this help Tesla recover the increasingly stalled sales in China?

Tesla’s profit margin is under pressure.

While the outside world is concerned about FSD’s entry into China, Tesla recently released its financial report for the second quarter of 2024. The report shows that Tesla’s total revenue in the second quarter increased slightly by 2% to $25.5 billion, but after removing the income from carbon points, the actual automobile sales revenue was only $18.5 billion, down 7% year-on-year, slightly lower than the market expectation of $18.7 billion; Net profit was $1.494 billion, down 45% from the same period last year.

In the face of such a financial report, Tesla’s share price also fell by more than 8%. However, for Tesla, whose share price has been soaring since the second half of the year, the adjustment of the current share price is obviously only a slight fluctuation.

Since July, Tesla’s share price has risen by more than 25%, and even in the first week of July, its increase has erased all the declines in the first half of the year.

The "good" behind Tesla’s share price, on the one hand, is because its delivery volume in the second quarter was 444,000 vehicles, which was 4.8% lower than that in the same period of last year, but increased by 14.7% from the previous month. Considering the relatively weak global electric vehicle market, for Tesla, this achievement has been better than the expectations of Wall Street institutions.

On the other hand, what attracts capital to vote with their feet is Tesla’s "new story" in artificial intelligence and autonomous driving. In April this year, Musk announced that Tesla will release Robotaxi products on August 8 this year (it has been confirmed that it will be postponed until October); In July, Musk said that humanoid robots will be produced in small batches next year.

In addition, as the world’s first "end-to-end" AI autopilot model, the FSD V12 released at the end of last year is also a trump card of Tesla. Insiders pointed out that Tesla may be the most underestimated "AI investment target" in the US stock market. Some analysts estimate that the valuation of FSD business may be as high as 1 trillion US dollars, which has exceeded Tesla’s market value of about 800 billion US dollars.

But to prop up such a huge imagination space, it is natural to have the support of real money and silver. Tesla said in a statement that the profit in the second quarter was mainly affected by "artificial intelligence projects" and "restructuring costs", which refers to the cost paid by Tesla for 10% layoffs in April this year.

However, in addition to the increase in investment, Tesla’s sluggish auto business is the key to affecting the company’s performance. The decline in revenue is mainly due to the decline in automobile sales, while the profit is "halved" because bicycle profits continue to shrink, and the price war brought about by fierce competition in the industry has equally affected every car company.

In the second quarter of this year, Tesla’s overall gross profit margin was 18%, which was higher than that in the past three quarters, but the gross profit margin of automobile sales fell to 13.9%, which means that Tesla’s gross profit for selling a car was $5,784, compared with $13,809 two years ago.

FSD will play catfish again

Therefore, this "FSD entry into China" has also become a key step for Tesla to regain lost ground in the China market, not only to promote product iteration and boost sales in China market, but also to preempt the layout of the intelligent networked automobile market.

As we all know, in the field of intelligent driving, Tesla has always been a "minority". Compared with the lidar route selected by most domestic auto-driving solution suppliers, the pure visual route that Tesla adheres to has not been the mainstream solution.

However, since last year, the domestic "smart driving route" has quietly turned its direction. On the one hand, the rise of the big model has become a new variable. Musk said that after FSD adopts end-to-end technology, it only needs 3,000 lines of code to replace the original 300,000 lines of code.

On the other hand, more and more car companies are actively promoting urban NOA, but compared with high-speed scenes, the complexity of road conditions in urban scenes can be described as a geometric increase. If we still rely on the research and development method of handwritten rules by engineers, it will not only increase the development cost of car companies, but also slow down the progress of "opening the city" of car companies.

Xia Yiping, CEO of Extreme Vietnam, once said that whoever has not landed this year "can drive the whole country intelligently" will fall behind in the wave of intelligence. The intelligent competition of the new energy cycle has reached a white-hot stage, and every car company is naturally "hurry up and don’t hurry up".

It can be seen that "FSD’s entry into China" has accelerated the intellectual competition between car companies, but for car companies, FSD may not be an invincible opponent.

For example, some time ago, Chairman Xpeng Motors went to California to experience the version of FSD V12.3.6, and gave an evaluation of "excellent performance". However, when talking about FSD’s entry into China, he said that it would face more complicated road conditions when it landed in China.

Yu Chengdong, chairman of BU, a smart car solution, welcomed Tesla FSD to enter the China market, but also stressed that Huawei enhanced its perception by using lidar, which made Huawei’s intelligent driving system outperform Tesla in the China market.

However, compared with the optimism of car companies, the view that there is no direct competition with Tesla seems to be more conservative. Some insiders said that Tesla’s chips and algorithms are strongly bound, and the cost is only one-third of that of peers.

In contrast, the domestic automobile products that focus on intelligent driving have not been optimized for software and hardware integration, and more hardware will be invested in the future to achieve the same effect. In addition, Tesla has obvious data advantages. It is reported that the cumulative mileage of Tesla FSD has exceeded 1.6 billion kilometers.

Of course, in terms of intelligent driving, whether Tesla is a "wolf" or a "sheep" will eventually have to wait until the FSD lands, so that domestic car companies and Tesla can compete with each other. But before that, Tesla has obviously become a "catfish", driving the development of the entire intelligent driving industry in China.

Tesla can also accelerate learning in the competition. When Tesla can get more domestic city driving data support, it may be able to take another share in the field of Robotaxi and accelerate the development in the field of intelligent networked vehicles.

Tesla expects to boost sales.

Of course, compared with the higher-order assisted driving explosion, whether it can boost domestic market sales through FSD may be a more urgent task for Tesla.

To be sure, the market has high hopes for the new version of FSD. If the landing effect of China market is amazing, it will not only change the pattern of the whole autonomous driving industry, but also bring "early adopter effect" and promote Tesla’s sales.

But at the same time, there are still many uncertainties about the performance of FSD in the domestic market. First, considering the differences in road conditions and training scenes at home and abroad, it is hard to say whether the performance of the "tiger" FSD is better than that of the "local snake".

Second, it is a question of willingness to pay. After accessing the credit card data of about 3,500 Tesla owners who participated in the FSD trial, some institutions found that less than 2% of Tesla users decided to buy after trying the FSD. It is reported that the price of FSD in China is 64,000 yuan. How many fans can FSD gain under the background that "paid awareness" has not been cultivated in the domestic autonomous driving market?

The most important factor is that intelligent driving has never been the only factor that affects consumers’ car purchase decisions. For Tesla, the lack of new models is the root of its recent continuous price war, and the lack of product innovation can only attract consumers by adjusting prices.

It is reported that Tesla’s new car is scheduled to start production in the first half of next year and will be produced on the same production line as the current model. However, sharing the production line means that the cost of this new car may not drop so much, and it is impossible to spell the "price bayonet", so the differentiation ability of the new car is even more critical.

It is worth mentioning that Tesla also talked about "price" in the financial report meeting. He said that he knew that many car manufacturers offered attractive price concessions, but in the long run, the price war was not a problem for Tesla.

So far, Tesla’s gross profit is still among the top cars, but it has room for price reduction, but it has no "one drop to the end". Although there are considerations such as product matrix and market reaction, instead of "scale rather than profit", perhaps Musk still prefers to use profits to accelerate the development of artificial intelligence and autonomous driving business.

As Musk said, "If someone doesn’t believe that Tesla can solve the problem of autonomous driving (FSD), they should not become investors in Tesla", which may be Tesla’s "long-term doctrine" in the future.

However, at the moment when intelligent assisted driving is rapidly heading for autonomous driving and even unmanned driving, are users really ready for the "unmanned era"?

Driving without a license’s "Old Man Le" injured others, should the seller also bear the responsibility?

  There is such a kind of car that shuttles through the streets. People call it "Old Man Le". It looks like a car and is actually a four-wheel low-speed electric car. However, "Old Man Le" lacks basic safety configuration, poor stability, poor braking, and dangerous driving on the road, which is easy to cause traffic accidents.

  Today (February 10th), the reporter learned that recently, Gaoyou Court concluded a product liability dispute case, in which the plaintiff injured a motorcycle rider while driving an electric four-wheeled vehicle, and had to pay nearly 200,000 yuan after mediation. The owner who can sell "Lao Toule" didn’t tell the truth, and the plaintiff mistakenly thought that "Lao Toule" was a non-motor vehicle and didn’t get a driver’s license, license or insure the vehicle. Later, the plaintiff sued the vehicle seller for compensation.

  Uncle Wang (pseudonym), a citizen of Gaoyou, likes to go out for a stroll. Considering weather factors such as wind and rain, he bought an electric four-wheeled vehicle in 2021. With this car, Uncle Wang’s life is more colorful. He drives out from time to time, not to mention how happy he is. However, an accident made him deeply regret his original decision to buy a car. What’s going on here?

  In March 2022, Uncle Wang was driving on a main road in a local town, with a fork in the road ahead, and suddenly a motorcycle came across. Uncle Wang’s left turn failed to avoid the straight motorcycle in time, causing the two cars to collide and the motorcycle rider fell to the ground and was injured. After the traffic accident, the traffic police arrived at the scene to deal with the accident, and the injured motorcycle rider Mr. Chen (pseudonym) was taken to the hospital for treatment. Mr. Chen was seriously injured and was discharged after a period of treatment. After identification, the degree of injury belongs to the second degree of serious injury. The results of the accident investigation were released, and Uncle Wang was completely dumbfounded after getting the appraisal results. After identification, the vehicle that Uncle Wang was driving was a motor vehicle, and the traffic police department issued the "Certificate of Road Traffic Accident", which determined that Uncle Wang did not obtain a motor vehicle driver’s license, drove an unregistered electric four-wheeled vehicle on the road, and did not let the straight vehicle go first when turning left at the intersection, which was the main cause of the accident, and the other party was responsible for the accident. After mediation, Uncle Wang needs to compensate the other party for 195,000 yuan. I have to bear a large amount of compensation at one time, and Uncle Wang is a little unable to sit still. "When I bought this car, the boss didn’t tell me to get a motor vehicle driver’s license, and I didn’t know that the vehicle had to be registered. It can’t be all on me." As a consumer, Uncle Wang said, "If I had known that this car belonged to a motor vehicle and the product had quality defects, I would not have paid for it."

  The vehicle was not licensed, and Uncle Wang was still openly in driving without a license. According to him, it is mainly because I don’t know the nature of the car as an electric car. Afterwards, Uncle Wang thought that the seller of the electric four-wheeler did not explain to him that the car was an electric vehicle, which made him mistakenly think that he was driving a non-motor vehicle. "The business practices have made me miserable, and they should also bear the liability for compensation for the accident." Uncle Wang negotiated this matter with the vehicle sales department, but there was no progress. Finally, Uncle Wang took the sales department and operator Mr. Li (a pseudonym) to court. Recently, Gaoyou court heard the case. The judge pointed out that the Civil Code of People’s Republic of China (PRC) stipulates: "If a product is defective and causes damage to others, the infringed may claim compensation from the producer of the product or the seller of the product.".

  The Product Quality Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC) stipulates: "The defects mentioned in this law refer to the unreasonable dangers of products that endanger the personal and property safety of others; If the product has national standards and industry standards to protect human health and personal and property safety, it means that it does not meet the standards. " After trial, the court held that the defendant’s sales department sold the electric car to the plaintiff, and in the process of sales, the attributes of the vehicle were vaguely defined, misleading consumers to buy and use the electric car as a non-motor vehicle. However, the electric four-wheeled vehicle involved in the case was identified as a motor vehicle. The defendant’s sales department sold the products identified as motor vehicles, failed to warn consumers of the products, and had defects in instructions, explanations and warnings, which made the electric four-wheeled vehicle involved in the accident unreasonable and should be identified as defective products. Based on the defects of the product, one of the reasons for the accident was that the electric four-wheeled vehicle involved was not registered, the plaintiff drove on the road without obtaining a motor vehicle driver’s license, and did not follow the motor vehicle regulations.

  That is to say, the defective electric four-wheeled vehicle involved in the case has a causal relationship with the occurrence and damage results of this traffic accident, and the defendant’s sales department has a certain fault in failing to fulfill its warning obligations. The court also held that the plaintiff did not yield in accordance with the regulations in this accident, and his fault participation and cause in the traffic accident were far greater than the behavior of driving an unlicensed motor vehicle.

  At the same time, the court considered that the electric four-wheeled vehicle involved in the case was different from the general electric two-wheeled bicycle by naked eyes, and the plaintiff, as the driver, should pay the utmost attention to the vehicle attributes when purchasing the vehicle. The plaintiff failed to carefully review the duty of care, and also made negligence. The court finally ruled that the defendant’s sales department was liable for 15% of the compensation and should compensate the plaintiff for 29,250 yuan.
