Do you want to learn sketch in Chinese painting? What about oil painting, printmaking and sculpture?

Do you need to train sketch to draw Chinese painting? What is the current situation of sketch art and sketch education in China? Reporter The Paper (www.thepaper.cn) visited experts from major art institutions and art colleges in Shanghai to discuss this topic from various aspects such as Chinese painting, oil painting, printmaking and sculpture.

Zhang Peicheng (Vice Chairman of Shanghai Artists Association):

If Chinese painting wants to draw lessons from sketch, it must be cut in the way of Chinese painting.

Do you need to train sketch to draw Chinese painting? This issue has been controversial for a long time.

Everyone has a different understanding of the connotation and extension of sketch. Personally, I think that no matter oil painting, Chinese painting, printmaking or even abstract art, they are all in modeling. If sketch is a convenient way to solve modeling problems, it should still be necessary to learn sketch. Of course, there was no concept of sketch in ancient China, but the line drawing at that time was also a kind of sketch to some extent.

Sketch is actually a kind of judgment on modeling. This is the ability to feel the object.I think this ability to feel is very important for an artist. For example, when he sees a person, a scene or a bottle, he will feel and have the impulse to express himself. If this sensibility is innate, it is also necessary to tap this potential through sketch training. Of course, there are different ways of sketching, such as passively simulating nature and actively expressing objects. In fact, Chinese painting is adapted to the latter.

Western sketch also solves the problem of space. Stereo and perspective are basic skills in oil painting. For Chinese painting, the picture is flat. Even if we want to draw more realistic Chinese painting now, this space is different from oil painting. So,If we want to learn sketch in Chinese painting, its emphasis must be different from that in western painting. Otherwise, it will bring many negative effects.

In fact, among some Chinese painters older than me, some are very successful artists, but they still encounter bottlenecks. The reason is that too many western sketches were instilled in those years, and this influence is hard to get rid of, and problems arise when they are expressed with brush and ink lines of Chinese paintings. This kind of sketch training has become a shackle, which makes the performance of Chinese painting very free. From this perspective, sketch and Chinese painting are two systems. Especially for painters who paint landscapes, flowers and birds, it is absolutely impossible to use this sketching method to train, and they can’t paint plaster like western painting, and they can even not sketch.

But from a broad perspective, the sketch of Chinese painting can be trained in another way. For example, China’s drawing characters requires strong modeling ability, so modeling training is essential. The expression of Chinese painting is written, which requires the painter to express what he wants to express in one go very skillfully. If he hesitates a little in modeling and the pen stops, his writing will be greatly affected, and his breath will be "broken" immediately. However, the modeling training of Chinese painting should not draw long-term homework, otherwise it will damage the artistic expression.

Zhang Peicheng’s sketch works

In addition, the drawing method of Chinese painting sketch should also abandon the method of completely simulating the object and drawing in an orderly way. In today’s era, we should also encourage the diversity of modeling, draw our own feelings and create freely. I think this is more in line with the requirements of art.

In fact, in ancient times, although we didn’t learn sketch in the western sense, we also learned modeling by studying mustard seed garden and earlier pastels. For example, painting flowers requires a very good understanding of the structure of flowers. Take Qi Baishi as an example. He has never drawn a western sketch, but he knows the structure of the object very well. I remember once reading a document that Qi Baishi wanted to draw a duck. He carefully studied what the other paw was like when the duck landed on the ground, and he knew it clearly.Strictly speaking, we can also understand his process of figuring it out as a kind of sketch, because he is not only figuring it out in his mind, but also showing it in writing, so this is actually a study of modeling.Therefore, for Chinese painting, the training of sketch should have its own set of methods, instead of being "led by the nose" by the object, it should not be too realistic, but should capture more meaningful shapes.

Qi Baishi’s Works (Partial)

Teachers should always inspire students’ feelings about art. If everyone has their own unique interests, they can find themselves, and our art world will be rich and colorful. Although it’s hard to do. Of course, it is also necessary for traditional learning. Otherwise, this culture will not be handed down.

Traditional Chinese painting teachers used to teach students the modeling of objects and a program when teaching. Students know what peony looks like, how many painting methods there are, and the unique formal language of Chinese painting, that is, the program of painting. I think there are advantages to this, but there are also shortcomings, that is, unless students of Chinese painting have special talents, they can leave their teachers and draw peony and bamboo that are different from their teachers, otherwise they will easily fall into a stylized mode.

In fact, creation should go out and face nature directly, and sketching is very important. Of course, subjective things can be completely integrated into one’s heart. I have seen Mr. Zhu Qizhan’s sketches, and he hooked a house with a small notebook and pen, and so on. Many things are in his heart.

I can say that people who paint bamboo now rarely go out to see real bamboo, but only from the program, so people all over the country may paint the same bamboo. The program created by our ancients was summed up against real bamboo.If we have the ability to sketch today, we can also create a new program for today’s bamboo-this program is different from the ancients, but it is connected with the roots of our national culture. And this requires the ability to shape objects.

Just after the Cultural Revolution, the Ministry of Education had a big discussion about whether Chinese painting should be sketched. Is sketch the basis of Chinese painting? I think it is definitely wrong to say that "sketch is the basis of Chinese painting". But the modeling ability of sketch can be used for reference by Chinese painting. And this kind of reference should be cut in the way of sketching in traditional Chinese painting. In my opinion, students of Chinese painting can draw with a brush when they are in sketch class. For example, painting plaster Voltaire, you can draw it like him or not, but it has a lot of brush strokes in it. In this way, the bondage of western-style sketch to Chinese painting can be greatly reduced.

Jiang Jianzhong (Director of Oil Painting Department of Shanghai Academy of Fine Arts, Ph.D.):

Sketch is a "buffet", and you can find yourself only by choosing it individually.

At present, the art scene in China is surging, but the concept of sketch teaching has lagged behind. At present, the meaning of sketch understood by the oil painting major in the Academy of Fine Arts in class is still the second-hand pirated mode of the former Soviet Union, and sketch is already a kind of "stereotyped writing" and a dogma; Placed in the background of the times, it is like salted fish in the refrigerator.

Sketch is like a swamp on the road to the other shore. If the sketch foundation is poor, the picture will be weak. However, for a long time, most of the students in domestic colleges walked into this muddy swamp, but it was difficult to extricate themselves. In the Academy of Fine Arts, sketch classes are met every day, but how to draw sketches today? Most people have not thought about it, but still follow the sketch dogma, and students learn passively. Students only know how to grind a sketch very delicately, but they don’t know how to capture features, how to shape, and how sketch is a way to recognize things. They only use models as props to sketch, which has no vitality and soul.

Students don’t know what to achieve through the rules while learning the rules of sketching.Most students enter the Academy of Fine Arts because they love painting. In the cultural class, they can’t help but smear some strokes on the textbooks and sketch some naive but vivid characters. But when they entered the classroom and faced the models, those imaginations were gone. They are lost in the baggage of "Soviet-style" sketches, and their eyes are blocked by countless blocks, tones, methods and laws, which create obstacles. Every stroke of his works is to embody these laws, but as for the vivid characteristics of the objects and his own feelings, he is numb.I think many people have this experience. When parents feed their children hard every day, the effect is often counterproductive, and the result is anorexia.

In the mode of passive education, there will also be a freak. The more students master the traditional plaster skills, the less they want to create after graduation. In our country, the sketch of college entrance examination is more exam-oriented education, and there are very few personalized things. This "publicity" criterion is very practical for knocking on the door of university, but after entering university, this sketch is unfavorable for a student to become an artist. Students should look for a "private" sketch road from their own hearts and feelings, not too much "publicity". In my opinion, students majoring in oil painting should advocate short-term homework and sketching, and train their eyes’ sharpness and modeling generalization. Capture the most vivid things in the most concise way. In fact, the growth path of ancient western masters is more about drawing short-term homework.

In fact, tradition is dynamic, and you need to "find" tradition according to your own needs.The history of eastern and western art is so long and rich, can you swallow it all? If you can’t digest it, it will be of little value to you. You can only choose the food suitable for your gastrointestinal structure by buffet. If Van Gogh goes to learn from Angel, then Van Gogh does not exist. When you discover and "digest" those "traditions", you will experience the mystery of "transformational creation" and you will gradually discover yourself.

The training of sketch is not only realized by sketching or simulating objects; More importantly, according to one’s hobbies, nature and times, one should constantly absorb and revise the history of art in terms of concepts, expression techniques and modeling, and borrow the experience of predecessors in sketching and implant it into reality.

Jiang Jianzhong’s sketch works

Due to historical reasons, many successful artists found themselves in the oil paintings of western masters after the "reform and opening up", not in sketches. Therefore, most people are more accustomed to thinking and expressing their ideas directly with oil painting materials and tools on canvas, and rarely think or explain their personal artistic views in the form of sketches. Sketch is only regarded as basic training, not an independent art. Many people completely separate creation from sketching. When sketching, it is a mode of thinking, and when creating, it is a set of mode of thinking, which sets them against each other. However, the works of such painters are hard to go far.

Therefore, sketching has been a long time for some artists, just like a student’s exam. After that, he can’t wait to dump his textbook. great escape doesn’t want to look back. Sketch belongs to a position that is hardly even marginal in China.In fact, for artists, sketch is still very important, and it is the artist’s artistic position. Sometimes the record of sketch is more appropriate, natural, simple and convenient. Sketch is an artistic note, an artist’s psychological trajectory and behavior, a front stop of creation, a part of creation and creation itself!What kind of sketch there is, what kind of oil painting there is. Such examples abound in history, such as Van Gogh, Angel, Egon Schiele, Freud and so on.

It is urgent to find your own thinking point and cultivate independent thinking ability, starting from yourself! Please choose your favorite painting style in stages from the huge menu of art history, and look for excitement! Especially when I was a student,We should constantly replace the slippers of masters, wander between art history and objects, and look for interfaces between life and history, and between modernity and tradition. Don’t put basic training in opposition to creation, there should be creative elements in basic training.Maybe this should start at the same time as the first day of laying the foundation!

By the way, in contemporary times, the modeling training of oil painting major and Chinese painting major is facing a common problem. If sketch is regarded as methodology, its meaning will be very broad. In fact, all ethnic groups in the world have their own modeling methods and uniqueness in understanding the world, but they are marginalized.

The difference between China’s traditional modeling concept and the West is that Chinese’s sculpture concept follows the painting, and the clothing lines are completely flat lines, paying attention to density, accessibility, smoothness and implication, and pursuing plane. Western painting follows the sculpture, paying attention to light and shadow, space and strength, and pursuing volume. It is for this reason that beginners advocate painting plaster statues.

Perhaps the world has always been diverse, but for various reasons, we have forgotten our traditions. Interestingly, the concept of Chinese painting specialty has appeared the thinking phenomenon of western sketch, while the west is close to the planarization of the East. In the formation of her culture, a nation is still choosing something suitable for its national development, and is always in the process of absorption, exclusion and integration. Choosing and teaching students how to find food is the most important thing.

The development of western aesthetics basically follows the development of science.The traditional concept of sketch is the result of westerners’ understanding and grasping of the natural world. However, after the popularization of photography technology, the concept of sketching to reproduce nature has been in crisis … If the history of China since the 19th century is a response to the West, can the present era finally be regarded as "the response of the West to the East"?If we bypass the strange circle of cultural opposition between the East and the West, it is possible not to fall into other people’s cultural nests or our own nests. Perhaps, what we have to do is to stand on our own soil, trace back and sort out the cultural traditions of the East and the West from our personal perspective, and integrate them to generate ourselves.

Lu Zhiping (Deputy Director of Print Art Committee of China Artists Association):

Activate the "Eighteen Martial Arts" of Sketch, and enlighten diverse and diverse creations.

The idea of sketch originated in the west. butIf sketch refers to all monochromatic paintings, then in a broad sense, the method of sketching lines with a brush in ancient China can actually be regarded as a sketch.. Even now, some people think that ink painting is a form of sketch, but it was not called that at that time. In fact, most of the early artistic creations in the world are expressed in monochrome, such as rock paintings, rubbings and so on.

Sketch is beneficial to the introduction and development of all plastic arts. For printmaking, for a long period of history, it is mainly monochrome, such as early black and white woodcuts, copperplate prints, lithographs, etc., so printmaking and sketch have a special origin. Sketch should be regarded as an important support for printmaking.

In the field of teaching, how to understand and deal with the relationship between sketch education and printmaking has always been an important topic.Before and after the "Cultural Revolution", in order to make basic teaching connect with printmaking (especially black and white woodcut) more quickly, some domestic art colleges specially designed a set of sketch teaching system at that time. They trained sketch not from light and shade, but more from structure and block. This is a special sketch specially designed for printmaking teaching.

This idea was reasonable at that time, and it was quite effective in promoting the development of printmaking at one stage. But from now on, everything has advantages and disadvantages.At that time, the basis of sketch teaching was: printmaking should have a fixed pattern-large area, big black and white, and sketch served this fixed pattern. However, when the country was opened, it was found that in fact, the forms of printmaking were various.For example, some copperplate paintings pay special attention to light and shadow, while some prints emphasize line texture and sense of form. And different sketches may inspire artists to create different styles of printmaking works, so that printmaking presents a richer look. In this way, it is one-sided to set a fixed routine for a sketch to correspond to a print from the beginning.

Lu Zhiping’s print "The Old Man"

In fact, it is the same in the creation of Chinese painting. For example, if you set the Chinese painting to use lines at the beginning, you emphasize that students should use line drawing more often, but later you find that Chinese painting can also be splashed with ink and boneless, and there are many other methods. The training method of setting the box at the beginning may become a constraint for students. On the contrary, if students are encouraged to try a variety of sketches at the beginning, they will have a broader vision no matter what kind of artistic creation they are engaged in in in the future. From this point of view, sketch is not only a means to teach students to draw, but also a training of observation method and thinking mode. Isn’t creativity advocated in all fields now? Then I think sketch can be used as a way to break through the original frame. It may be more meaningful and reasonable to practice sketch in this way.

As for the sketch examination method widely criticized in college enrollment, I think it is caused by the accumulated disadvantages in the whole education field for many years, which is completely utilitarian. Let the teacher set a model to facilitate grading and admission, and less consideration is given to whether it is beneficial to students’ future growth. Many students like me can be said to be "victims" of this educational system. Because in many cases, our print creation does not advocate to describe the object in front of us truthfully, but emphasizes creativity, so many students feel at a loss and have no direction after they arrive.

We try to let the students learn to change their original thinking that relies on describing objects by observing, summarizing, choosing, imagining, mutating and creating, and let them gradually reverse their thinking mode by using abstract methods, imaginative methods and design methods.

For example, when training students to practice composition, I will ask them: Can ten different pictures be constructed from the same theme? For example, can the same three apples be placed in a variety of ways? Can black-and-white relations be handled differently? This forces them to open their minds. When their composition is finished, I say that at this time, you can choose the one you think is the best. In fact, as long as the mind is open, the hand will keep up. Sketch and composition training are both a form of sketch, which is not only a creative means, but also a support for thinking. The later draft may not be exactly the same as the sketch composition, but it doesn’t matter. The creator can see more lines and possibilities from behind one of the lines, thus getting rid of the dependence on the object.

Of course, I think it’s beneficial to know and try any kind of sketch form, including the plaster statues widely criticized in college enrollment. In fact, there is nothing wrong with learning how to push the work deeper. The problem is that it is wrong to regard such a sketch form as the only golden rule. I think it would be great if we could master the Soviet-style rigorous observation method and step-by-step molding method, and at the same time jump out of it.

I have received this Soviet-style education before. My teacher at that time told me, "After three years, five years and ten years, you will probably realize the effect of this long-term homework on you." Now I have a deep understanding,The value of long-term sketch is not to restore the object realistically, but to let me learn to observe carefully and comprehensively;Learn to make careful and rigorous trade-offs; Learning the expression of full and proper layer-by-layer promotion can also be used to study and explore a variety of expression techniques. This is the training of ability, thinking and mentality.

In plastic arts, printmaking may be a kind of painting with particularly rich styles and techniques, so the corresponding sketch forms should also be varied. For example, there is a technique called "Merutin" in copperplate prints, which pursues rich and subtle color changes, unlike black and white woodcuts. For this printmaking technique, the Soviet-style long-term sketching work will come in handy. Eighteen kinds of martial arts have their own merits, depending on who they are suitable for and on what occasion.

Some students or schools in the west don’t attach importance to sketching and can’t draw, which should not be the object we must follow.Of course, their training methods that attach importance to thinking also have some merits, but this does not mean that "being good at hands" is wrong. Now western painting is also returning, and it is normal to go astray for a period of time, and some overcorrection is also normal. As for us, there is no need to change our minds and follow the trend, as if everyone can’t draw is the "right way", which is completely unnecessary.

Yang Jianping (Vice President of Shanghai Academy of Fine Arts, Professor of Sculpture Department, Doctoral Supervisor):

At present, sketch teaching is like smog, which is a "syndrome"

Sketch, as its name implies, is a way to describe an image in a simple and simple way. Historically, sketch and sculpture are closely related.For sculptors, sketching is a basic training, but also a way to record ideas and creative inspiration. Many sculptors leave a lot of manuscripts besides three-dimensional sculptures, such as Michelangelo and Rodin.

Michelangelo sketch

Relatively speaking, China’s traditional sculptures and paintings are different from western classical realistic styles and methods. It has unique artistic modeling styles and creative methods handed down from ancestors.The ancient sculptures in China have their own strict styles. Through the description of pastels and the dictation of written data, for example, the opening of a Buddha statue has very specific data, all of which have statutes.The East emphasizes inheritance rather than innovation, but these shapes are unique. Therefore, sketch, as a basic practice or recording creation method, has many forms in a broad sense.

Sculpture itself, due to the different cultures, materials and concepts between the East and the West, finally presents a very diversified style, even in a conceptual and installation way. As a sketch teaching, we should also keep up. Otherwise, you just train every student to draw concrete, but in the end, many people actually don’t do concrete at all. It’s not that the "academic" sketch we are learning now has no merit, but at least it’s not good for all of us to do it. There should be a distinction. For those students who insist on figuration, let them study the traditional realistic sketch well. Other students can learn from it, but there is no need to spend too much class time on it. Different students should have different training emphases.

There are various ways to sketch, for example, Bauhaus’s sketch training method is to draw structural relations. Look at the traditional masters, such as Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Holbein and Diu Lei. Those lines are beautiful and expressive. We should oppose dogma and have active thoughts and critical spirit.

Yang Jianping’s work "Jing Zhe"

Our generation learned to sketch, and they danced all the way in "red dancing shoes" and enjoyed it. We visited a place, took out a sketch book and recorded it. It was very enjoyable to start painting, and a painting took half a day. But today’s young people are different. They are willing to take out their mobile phones to take a photo and make a video, which saves time and effort. Their current inspection is more about experience, with a faster pace and more things to see. In the Internet age, such a change is sometimes understandable, but it also raises a question: What kind of basic training do we need and what kind of sketch do we want to draw? Since the birth of photography, it has been an impact on documentary painting, and the artistic expression after that is more of an idea. Do all our students still draw the same sketches like photos? There must be something wrong with this.

We usually say that the master sketches well. In fact, Leonardo da Vinci was not only a painter, but also a naturalist, a scientist and thinker. Now we always say that we should learn from the lines of masters, but people are comprehensive. A person is an artist because he is capable and thoughtful, so he can paint well.The sentence in the allusion of my skillful solution to the cow "I am in a good mood, and I am also a Taoist;" It’s very reasonable to enter the skill. Now people have to "skill" instead of "Tao", putting the cart before the horse.

This also has a lot to do with our current college entrance examination system. It is these patterned sketches that students learn all day for the exam, and they don’t know what to do after entering the university. Some people think that’s how sketches should be drawn. So the students who come in are the students the teacher wants? But if you don’t want it, who can you want? China, with such a large population, how can we get into universities without this method? The sketch of the college entrance examination is indeed widely criticized now, but it is not that simple to reform it.

The existing problems in art education are actually a "syndrome", which is related to the national conditions in China, just like the smog in China. You said that students only know how to paint plaster, and you can’t blame them. They lacked aesthetic education since childhood. On the other hand, after graduation, students in China need to find jobs for their survival and family expectations, so what they have learned has to be "practical".To some extent, the Academy of Fine Arts does not train artists in China, but solves the problem of social employment.

The syllabus clearly says "sketch head" and "still life". You must take this course even if you don’t approve it. Comparatively speaking, the postgraduate stage is relatively flexible. In a word, a series of problems such as national conditions, education system, teachers and even ideology make the teaching reform difficult.

(This series of articles was compiled by Jiang Cen according to interviews)

Jiangsu Finance revised and improved the management measures of special funds to promote the high-quality development of natural resources.

  In order to standardize the management of special funds, improve the performance of fund use, promote the protection and utilization of natural resources and ecological restoration, and promote the high-quality development of natural resources in our province, recently, the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Finance and the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Natural Resources revised and issued the Measures for the Management of Special Funds for Natural Resources Development in Jiangsu Province. The special funds are jointly managed by the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Finance and the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Natural Resources, and follow the principle of "reflecting public welfare, highlighting key points, earmarking funds and focusing on performance".

  First, clear the scope of support and subsidy standards

  Combined with the reform of natural resources management system and the work requirements of the provincial party committee and the provincial government, the special funds will further focus on the protection and utilization of natural resources and the development of natural resources. The scope of support includes institutional reform and basic management in the field of natural resources, provincial-level basic surveying and mapping, public welfare basic strategic geological exploration and a new round of strategic action for prospecting, innovative development of mine and land integration, comprehensive improvement of national space, scientific and technological innovation of natural resources and other key projects determined by the state and the province. The special funds will fully subsidize the provincial-level financial affairs projects, and the provincial and city-county joint financial affairs projects will be given a fixed subsidy, with the maximum not exceeding 50% of the total project budget investment.

  Second, optimize the distribution mode and use management

  Special funds are allocated by the project method, and are divided into directly assigned task projects and competitive project projects according to project types. For the task projects directly issued by the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Natural Resources, the undertaking unit shall prepare the project implementation plan and capital budget according to the task plan and report it to the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Natural Resources for review. After the review, the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Natural Resources will put forward a proposal for the allocation of funds, which will be issued to the project undertaking unit or city or county after being reviewed by the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Finance. For competitive projects, the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Natural Resources organizes the project declaration, review and warehousing every year, puts forward a proposal for fund allocation according to the warehousing projects, and issues it to the project undertaker or city or county after being reviewed by the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Finance. Special funds shall be earmarked for special purposes and shall not be used for general expenditures such as wages, benefits and public funds; The project undertaker shall organize the project implementation in strict accordance with the approved implementation plan, and shall not change the implementation plan without authorization; After the completion of the project, the project undertaker shall prepare the financial final accounts of the project in a timely manner and submit them to the acceptance, and the remaining funds shall be implemented in accordance with the relevant provisions.

  Third, strengthen performance management and supervision and inspection

  Departments in charge of finance and natural resources at all levels should establish and improve the whole process budget performance management mechanism such as performance evaluation, performance objectives, performance monitoring, performance evaluation and application of performance management results in accordance with the requirements of fully implementing budget performance management, and take the performance management results as an important basis for improving policies, adjusting and improving management. At the same time, we should strengthen the supervision of the use of special funds, correct and deal with problems in time, and accept the supervision and inspection of auditing, discipline inspection and supervision departments. Units using funds should strengthen the accounting and management of funds, and investigate the corresponding responsibilities in accordance with the provisions of relevant laws and regulations if there are illegal acts such as false reporting, fraud, interception, misuse and misappropriation of special funds.

Can pre-opened coconut water be drunk? The reporter visited many supermarkets and found that …

  Recently, coconut water frequently boarded hot searches, and topics such as # Drinking pre-opened coconut into the emergency room # caused heated discussion among netizens. Some netizens reported that after drinking the pre-opened coconut water, they felt sick, vomited and had a high fever.

  Many people say that this symptom is not unique: "My friend vomited after drinking the spoiled coconut water", "After drinking it, his head was particularly painful and his stomach turned upside down" and "the shelf life of coconut is very short, and the pre-opening is very unsanitary".

  Coconut water is undoubtedly a cool and thirst-quenching product in summer. Then, can you buy pre-opened coconuts? The reporter conducted an investigation.

  Why is pre-opened coconut water "poisonous"?

  Pre-opened coconut refers to coconut that has been cut or drilled to facilitate drinking coconut juice. Because of its convenience, pre-opened coconut water is very popular with consumers, but coconut is easily contaminated by bacteria after pre-opening.

  First of all, coconut may be polluted by unclean equipment or tools during cutting and processing;

  Secondly, if the coconut is not sealed and refrigerated in time after opening, and the summer weather is hot, it is likely to lead to bacterial growth;

  Thirdly, due to improper handling during transportation or storage, if the whole cold chain is not maintained or the storage time is too long, bacteria may multiply and lead to food poisoning.

  A large number of staphylococcus aureus will make coconut deteriorate, which will lead to nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea and other symptoms after eating it by mistake; Pseudomonas cocoanum is more deadly, and spoiled coconuts stored for a long time may breed Pseudomonas cocoanum and produce a special toxin — — Rice yeast acid is harmful to important organs such as liver, kidney and heart. Horribly, even if heated to 100℃, it can’t destroy its toxicity. At present, there is no specific medicine in clinic, and the mortality rate of poisoning cases is as high as 50%. If you have suspicious symptoms, you should see a doctor immediately.

  There is chaos in the pre-opening coconut market.

  The reporter visited and found that at present, the pre-opened coconuts on the market have branded packaging products, and some supermarkets open their own packaging, which are sold in major supermarkets and fruit shops. But without exception, its packaging only marked the date of listing and packaging, but did not mark the shelf life.

  At present, most of the pre-opened coconuts on the market only indicate the market date and packaging date, but not the shelf life.

  The reporter asked how long is the shelf life of the pre-opened coconut? How to judge whether the pre-opened coconut has expired?

  Many supermarket clerks used excuses such as "it doesn’t expire as long as it’s on sale" and "if it’s not fresh, we’ll take it off the shelf", but they couldn’t answer the reporter’s question directly.

  Some shop assistants recommended a higher-priced "coconut egg" to the reporter, that is, a coconut with half its skin peeled. The shop assistant said that the "coconut egg" had no opening, and it was more hygienic to poke the coconut meat with a straw. The reporter saw that some "coconut eggs" were indeed marked with the date of production and shelf life (3 days), which looked more formal than pre-opened coconuts, but lacked the date of listing. The clerk couldn’t answer the question "Why are the labels of pre-packaged coconut products different?".

  Some "coconut eggs" products are marked with the date of production and shelf life, but the date of listing is missing.

  Fresh coconuts can be drunk directly after opening, but consumers should pay attention to pre-opened coconuts. It is recommended to choose a reliable merchant when buying pre-opened coconuts, check whether the appearance of coconuts is intact, and check the freshness of coconuts. It is best to pour coconut water out before drinking to distinguish whether it has deteriorated.

  Supervision is still in a gray area.

  Call for corresponding measures as soon as possible.

  How to buy a safe pre-opened coconut? Is there anyone to supervise?

  Li Shuguang, a professor at Fudan University School of Public Health, said that the pre-opened coconut does not belong to prepackaged foods yet, so there is no mandatory implementation of complete information labeling; However, because of the pre-opening treatment, it is not entirely within the scope of agricultural products. Prepackaged foods is managed by the State Administration of Market Supervision, while agricultural products are managed by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs. However, due to the difficulty in defining its commodity attributes and supervision, the supervision of pre-opened coconuts is still in a gray area. It is precisely because there is no unified management that all kinds of packaging that consumers see in the market are determined by the merchants themselves, and there are indeed some security risks.

  Li Shuguang called on operators to be self-disciplined and earnestly safeguard the health of consumers and the reputation of brands; Consumers should enhance their risk awareness and discrimination, and buy food in formal channels; Regulators should speed up the characterization of this kind of new formats and new foods, introduce corresponding regulatory measures as soon as possible, strengthen supervision and increase the cost of violation.

  In addition, some people are worried about whether the pre-opened coconut will be added with additives. There is no ingredient list on the package, so consumers can’t check it.

  Li Shuguang believes that if only a small mouth is opened on the coconut, it is difficult for merchants to add additives from it, so consumers don’t have to worry too much; If coconut water is poured out to make coconut milk, coconut jelly and other products, food additives may be added, but there are standards for the addition of additives.

State Post Bureau: It is estimated that the express delivery business volume will increase by about 22% year-on-year in October.

  CCTV News:On October 1st, the State Post Bureau released the report of China Express Development Index in September 2021. According to the calculation, in September 2021, the China Express Development Index was 360.7, up 9.2% year-on-year. Among them, the development scale index was 368.2, a year-on-year increase of 25.8%. The service quality index and development ability index were 607 and 200.6, respectively, up by 3.8% and 6.6% year-on-year. The development trend index was 79.8, up 5.3% from the previous month. The development of the industry has risen steadily and continued to improve.

  In September, the scale index of express delivery development was 368.2. From the sub-indicators, the express delivery business volume is expected to grow by about 21% year-on-year, and the monthly scale is approaching the 10 billion mark. The express delivery business income is expected to grow by about 11% year-on-year. In the first three quarters, it is estimated that the growth rate of express delivery business volume and business income will be around 37% and 22% respectively, and the business income is close to the level of 2019. The industry maintained steady operation and its main economic indicators performed well. First, the growth rate of the industry is stable in the middle and high range. Since the beginning of this year, except for the high growth rate in the first quarter due to the low base during last year’s epidemic, the growth rate of the industry has been fluctuating slightly in the middle and high range of 20%-30% in the second and third quarters, and the growth rate difference is smaller than the same period last year. The development of each month is relatively balanced, and the difference in express delivery business volume is basically maintained within 1.5 billion pieces. Second, the industry structure continued to be optimized. From the perspective of business structure, the proportion of off-site business has increased. In the first three quarters, the growth rate of business volume in different places is expected to be close to 42%, and the role of the industry in promoting the domestic cycle is further revealed. From the perspective of regional structure, the central region has a good development momentum. In the first three quarters, the growth rate of express delivery business in the central region will be around 50%, which is much higher than the industry average. Among them, Jiangxi, Hubei and other provinces are expected to increase by more than 60%. From the perspective of urban and rural structure, with the vigorous promotion of "express delivery into the village", the volume of express delivery in rural areas has further increased, and the growth rate is expected to exceed 30%, and the balanced development of urban and rural areas has taken a more solid step. Third, online consumption is still the main force driving industry growth. In the first three quarters,E-commerce, live broadcast and other online economies are booming. Driven by all kinds of intensive promotion, consumer enthusiasm continues to rise, and the growth rate of online retail sales is nearly 20%, which has obviously boosted the growth of express delivery business. In the first three quarters, the volume of express delivery business will increase by more than 20 billion pieces, much higher than that in the same period last year.

  In September, the express service quality index was 607. From the sub-indicators, the effective appeal rate of express delivery is expected to be about 0.2 per million; Consumer express service satisfaction is expected to be about 79.9 points, up 1.2 points year-on-year; The 72-hour punctuality rate is expected to be about 78.3%, up 2.4 percentage points year-on-year. In the first three quarters, the satisfaction of consumer express service is expected to be about 79.2 points, up 0.8 points year-on-year; The 72-hour punctuality rate is expected to be about 75.6%, up 1.1 percentage points year-on-year. In the first three quarters, the service quality improved steadily, mainly in the following aspects: First, the multi-service system was continuously improved. In terms of terminal delivery, in order to facilitate users, express delivery companies further encrypt the network of service stations, continue to advance into communities and schools, and constantly provide diversified choices through door-to-door delivery and free storage at service stations. In terms of sending large pieces, express delivery companies focus on solving the problems of slow delivery of large pieces and difficulty in going upstairs through cold delivery and quick delivery of large tickets. In terms of home appliance decoration, express delivery companies actively build "super cloud warehouses", and form a deep collaborative network layout with regional city warehouses, store warehouses and pre-warehouses, providing users with delivery services such as speed delivery, delivery integration and appointment delivery. At the same time, postal express companies also entered the military camp, providing veterans with "one-stop" services such as on-site inspection and packaging, packaging and weighing, and loading on the bus, and warming the way for veterans to return home with peace of mind and caring services. The second is to further deepen the service of modern agriculture. In the first three quarters,The rural express network has accelerated to sink, and some areas have achieved comprehensive coverage of services into the village, and the delivery channels for agricultural products have become increasingly perfect. Postal express delivery enterprises expand from agricultural products delivery to supply chain service system by developing "delivery+agricultural products" business, helping to develop "live broadcast+express delivery" and establishing cooperative warehouses of origin, supporting the export of special agricultural products such as hairy crabs, mangoes, prunes, beef and mutton, and providing farmers, merchants and consumers with higher quality, higher timeliness and more cost-effective agricultural products delivery services.

  In September, the express development capability index was 200.6. From the sub-indicators, it is estimated that the online retail sales of physical goods supported by express delivery services will be around 900 billion yuan, an increase of about 110 billion yuan year-on-year. The proportion of business income to GDP is 9‰ About. In the first three quarters, it is estimated that the retail sales of express support network will be around 7.5 trillion yuan, accounting for about 24% of the total retail sales of social consumer goods. In the first three quarters, the enhancement of express delivery service capacity mainly benefited from the following aspects: First, technological innovation accelerated empowerment. Express delivery companies continue to deepen scientific and technological research and development, and promote the double upgrade of industrial efficiency and industrial efficiency. Express companies independently develop three-dimensional mobile robots, which organically integrate the functions of vertical storage and flexible handling, and have the characteristics of high flexibility, high flexibility and high reliability. The 5G fully connected intelligent warehouse developed by express delivery companies can realize the management and operation of unmanned chemical plants in the whole process of goods warehousing, storage, picking, handling and sorting, and won the first prize in the World 5G Congress -5G Application Design Exposition Competition. Second, the sea passage continued to expand. In order to meet the needs of overseas markets, especially cross-border e-commerce in Southeast Asia, for the timeliness and diversity of delivery logistics, express delivery companies continue to increase cross-border network construction and enhance the investment and integration of resources in overseas warehousing, customs clearance, logistics and distribution. Express companies rely on air, rail, highway and other modes of transportation to open "Tuding Express" railway transportation and "Dalian-Osaka".A number of cross-border passages, such as air transport and Sino-Vietnamese road transport, better serve cross-border delivery services in Europe, Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia. The third is the intensive construction of infrastructure. Express delivery enterprises have stepped up infrastructure construction and made great efforts to build a smart express hub network. Many distribution centers, industrial parks and supply chain centers in Guangzhou, Jiaozhou, Zigong, Huzhou, Wugong and Shangrao have been planned, put into production and operated, and the inter-provincial trunk line transshipment capacity and integrated supply chain service capacity have been further enhanced.

  In September, the development trend index was 79.8, up 5.3% from the previous month. It is estimated that the volume of express delivery business will increase by about 22% in October. According to the expectation of the capital market, a number of express delivery companies have been selected into the top 500 Asian brands, China enterprises and China private enterprises, and their brand values have been further enhanced. At the same time, under the dual effects of policy dividends and fee adjustment, the market expectation continues to rise. In the fourth quarter, the express delivery industry will enter the peak season, and the monthly scale is expected to exceed 10 billion pieces, and the rapid development of the industry will continue.

Meituan distribution launched the winter rider recruitment, invested 100 million yuan, opened 300,000 new positions

Entering the winter, takeaway consumption and transportation demand continued to grow. On December 12, Meituan takeaway launched the winter rider recruitment, invested 100 million yuan, opened 300,000 rider positions, continued to expand employment supply, and provided support for ensuring winter takeaway consumption.

It is reported that the winter rider recruitment investment will be mainly used for recruitment incentives in cities such as Beijing and Shanghai, as well as in areas with tight transportation capacity such as Northeast China and North China, including measures such as upgrading the "Bole Award", and riders can get up to 10,000 yuan for recommending new people. Offline, Meituan will also increase resource support for partner recruitment, and link human resources agencies in the region under the guidance of local governments to expand the coverage of recruitment information. For workers who want to increase their income part-time, Meituan further improves the "part-time model" of the special delivery site. The webmaster will provide distribution guidance. Part-time riders can also flexibly adjust their work rhythm according to personal needs, so as to achieve a balance between life and work. In order to help new riders master delivery skills faster and increase income, Meituan Takeaway has launched a "three-piece novice set" for new riders, including "rider hand-holding", "novice care sheet" and "novice disclaimer card". At present, more than 30,000 old riders have joined the "master group" to provide one-to-one training for new riders. The online learning platform has also developed more than 120 class skill courses for riders to learn. For rider career development, Meituan has launched rider online learning platform, webmaster training program, rider transfer mechanism, rider university and other projects to help riders career development to a higher level. At present, more than 420,000 riders have participated in the "webmaster training program".

The rider is resting in the inn

In order to strengthen the rider’s winter distribution guarantee, Meituan has invested 1.70 billion yuan in winter distribution subsidies to carry out winter care activities across the country, and has built more than 38,000 rider stations across the country in conjunction with all sectors of society, which is convenient for riders to rest and obtain supplies at any time. The emergency mechanism of "severe cold protection" has been activated. In special weather such as blizzard and strong wind, it provides assistance such as delivery time and bad review elimination, and dynamically adjusts the distribution radius to shorten the time riders are exposed to the outdoors. At the same time, riders are equipped with commonly used medicines in winter. In addition, in accordance with the national unified work deployment, Meituan actively participates in the occupational injury protection pilot in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong and other seven provinces and cities to provide riders with insurance premiums and more comprehensive work safety.

Meituan takeaway rider service department said that winter is a critical period for takeaway delivery, and it is also the focus of distribution security. Meituan takeaway will continue to increase the recruitment of riders, do a good job in logistics for riders’ winter delivery, and strengthen the capacity guarantee of winter takeaway consumption.

In response to the labor fluctuations in the takeaway and distribution industry, Zhang Chenggang, director of the China New Employment Form Research Center and associate professor of the School of Labor Economics at Capital University of Economics and Business, said that the labor supply and demand situation in the takeaway and distribution industry has always been in a dynamic balance. Winter is the peak season for takeaway consumption, and the demand for transportation capacity expands. However, the labor market will be in short supply before the year, especially in northern and first-tier cities due to weather and population mobility. The manpower gap will be more significant. Increasing recruitment efforts by takeaway platforms and cooperative enterprises will help alleviate the labor problem. Overall, the takeaway and distribution industry is flexible and mobile. Both "labor difficulties" and "labor surplus" are short-term phenomena in some regions. They can be effectively solved through market self-adjustment. The outside world should view this rationally.

Sancha capital market, Xiaomi’s optimistic smart driving company went to Hong Kong for IPO.

Author | Li Lan

Edit | Chapter Ripple

On March 30, three years ago, officer Lei announced to build a car. One hundred days later, Xiaomi led nearly 20 supply chain manufacturers such as Zongmu Technology, a smart driving solution provider.
As one of the first companies to invest and bet after Xiaomi entered the car, on March 28, 2024,On the day when Xiaomi’s first car, SU7, went public, Zongmu Technology also formally submitted a prospectus to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, intending to list the main board.
This is the third listing of Zongmu Technology.
In January 2017, Zongmu Technology was listed on the New Third Board and delisted in December of the same year. The reason given was "needed for the adjustment of the company’s operation and development strategy".
In November 2022, Zongmu Technology science and technology innovation board’s IPO application was accepted by the Shanghai Stock Exchange, and it planned to raise 2 billion yuan, but in September 2023, it chose to withdraw its listing application in science and technology innovation board.
Now,Vertical scientific and technological choiceGive up science and technology innovation board and launch a sprint to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
fromAccording to the prospectus,Zongmu Technology has been more cautious in its wording this time, and put more emphasis on products. At the same time, before applying for IPO, it also carried out a series of "light" actions.
asThe "veteran" who broke into the capital market for the third time doesn’t know.Can the listing of Zongmu Technology go smoothly this time?
01
The financial report has improved, and the business is exploring.
The most eye-catching part of the prospectus is that the gross profit margin has finally turned positive.
Compared with the unprofitable situation in November 2022, Zongmu Technology has achieved a positive gross profit margin. From 2021 to 2023, Zongmu Technology’s gross profit margin was -8.9%, -3.5% and 3.5%, respectively, corresponding to a gross profit of-20.07 million yuan,-16.29 million yuan and a profit of 17.33 million yuan. Revenue has a steady growth with a compound annual growth rate of 48.7%.

Moreover, the cash flow of Zongmu Technology has also become stable. According to the prospectus, there is still a lot of room for fault tolerance. As of January 31, 2024, Zongmu Technology had 33.2 million yuan in cash assets, leaving 1.19 billion yuan in unused bank facilities.
How did Zongmu Technology achieve "rebirth"?A lot of factors benefit from the continuous growth of the market as a whole.
Before the real commercialization of L4 comes, L2+ has the widest application prospect, among which, the "integrated operation and parking" has the highest cost performance. According to the monitoring data of the Institute of Advanced Technology Intelligent Automobile, in 2023, 3,504,800 new cars with automatic parking were delivered as standard in China market (excluding import and export), up by 22.10% year-on-year.
According to the data in the prospectus, in 2022, about 20% of the ADAS solution market for passenger cars in China will be automatic parking. Among them, APA solutions account for more than 80%. Based on the corresponding income in 2022, Zongmu Technology is the second in China and the first in China respectively.
At present, most parking and parking integrated solutions in the market are actually designed and integrated based on the 1.0 architecture, which simply combines the driving SoC and the parking SoC into one box. The biggest technical moat of technology is that only a single SoC can solve the two problems of parking and parking.
Although three of the top five automatic parking APA schemes are foreign suppliers,However, domestic suppliers have the advantage of being "close to the water", which is convenient to provide personalized customized services to domestic new energy vehicle enterprises. The market share of domestic suppliers has increased from less than 5% in 2018 to 16.7% in 2022, and it is expected to exceed 25.0% in 2027..

According to the data of burning knowledge consulting, in terms of sales revenue in 2022, the ranking of the company among mainland suppliers in China is as follows: Zongmu Technology ranks fifth in the ADAS market with a market share of 1.0%; Ranked second in the automatic parking solution market, with a market share of 4.9%; Ranked first in APA parking solution market, with a market share of 5.6%.
According to the prospectus,AVP and APA platforms have been used in 28 models, and the energy service robot for intelligent mobile energy solutions is equipped with L4-level autopilot function supported by Drop’nGo platform..
From the most basic composition, the products of Zongmu Technology can be divided into two main directions:First, intelligent driving hardware and solutions, including domain controller and camera, 4D millimeter-wave radar, ultrasonic radar and other gauge sensors; Second, provide research and development services related to autonomous driving.
The hardware part is divided into three products,That is, panoramic surveillance camera, automatic parking assistance function and autonomous parking function, which respectively correspond to three scenes: car panoramic "reversing radar", automatic parking in the car and remote parking outside the car..
A domain controller is a computer that manages specific vehicle functions or fields, such as active safety, automatic driving, parking or parking. The controller of Zongmu Science and Technology Domain collects data from sensors around the vehicle (including radar, camera and ultrasonic sensor) to build a model of the surrounding environment. The software algorithm embedded in the domain controller will then determine the appropriate action of the vehicle according to the model. Moreover, Zongmu Technology has also developed a separate software algorithm, which can be delivered as a comprehensive software embedded hardware product or as an independent software product.
Finally, the computing platform of Zongmu Technology provides the basis for all function iterations, and the Drop’nGo platform supports the development of intelligent driving functions from L0 to L4.
According to the prospectus, since its launch in 2017, the Drop’nGo platform has gone through several iterations, enhancing its multi-sensor data fusion capability, improving its adaptability to weather and lighting conditions, and expanding its application scenarios from indoor to outdoor.
The third generation of Drop’nGo platform can provide L2+ comprehensive intelligent parking function on passenger cars, and further empower energy solutions with L4 automatic driving function.
The hardware that science and technology can make money has changed year by year.
In December 2022, in the prospectus of Zongmu Technology,Describing himself as "one of the few first-class suppliers in China that can provide intelligent driving systems for automobiles, including L0-L4 intelligent driving control units and intelligent sensors", the importance attached to control units has declined.
From the perspective of income structure, Zongmu Technology mainly relied on car trajectory sensors for profit last year.
At present, the domestic self-driving auto market dominated by L2+ level still needs the second-gear APA integrated parking solution. According to the prospectus, the company is in a leading position in the market of ADAS, automatic parking and APA (automatic parking assistance system) parking solutions.

From the perspective of profitability, the highest gross profit margin is the R&D services related to autonomous driving. In 2021 and 2022, the gross profit margin reached 42.7% and 50.8% respectively. However, in 2023, there was a waist cut, only 18.6%. Looking at the technology, it is pointed out that this is mainly due to the increasingly fierce market competition and the increase in project complexity, resulting in increased costs.
From the data of the prospectus alone, although Zongmu Technology does not have much exponential growth, it still has extraordinary incremental space.

Moreover, there are more choices when getting through the depth of customers. As of December, 2022, the overall customer matrix is still relatively simple. Among them, Cyrus accounts for more than 50% of the revenue, and the top five customers account for nearly 90%. By 2023, the number one customer has dropped to 43.8%, the customer diversity has increased, and the ability to resist risks has also been significantly enhanced.
Zongmu Technology is also constantly adjusting its customer service mode, and the autonomous driving R&D service has received a large order. In December 2023, it successfully obtained the Amphiman 3000 fixed-point from Changan Automobile to support its new car platform for a series of models, and it is expected to be mass-produced in 2024.

However, Zongmu Technology is still at a loss.

From 2021 to 2023, the net losses of Zongmu Technology were 434 million yuan, 588 million yuan and 564 million yuan respectively, and the adjusted net losses were 382 million yuan, 477 million yuan and 516 million yuan respectively.The total net loss for three years exceeded 1.3 billion yuan.
Of course, Zongmu Technology also has an explanation for this persistent loss.Even similar to the contents in the prospectus required for listing in science and technology innovation board in 2022, the chip is too expensive.
According to Zongmu Technology,With the overcapacity of global chips, this adverse impact on costs will be significantly reduced in the future. After all, whether it is hardware upgrade or solution iteration, the core need is computing power..
02
High-profile financing, multiple IPOs
Zongmu technology has always been highly anticipated by the capital market.
In the latest shareholding structure, Hong Kong Zongmu is the largest shareholder of the company, holding 22.17% of the shares. As a concerted action, Tang Rui and his mother Li Xiaoling control 33.3% of the shares of the company through multiple entities. In addition, Junlian Capital holds 7.55% of the shares as the second largest shareholder, while Xiaomi Group, which has received much attention, ranks the fifth largest shareholder with 4.73% of the shares.

The earliest round of financing record of Zongmu Technology occurred in 2015. In the previous year, in 2014, Mobileye, the world’s largest ADAS manufacturer, landed on the New York Stock Exchange, which means that the track of ADAS has been verified and opened a financing channel for Zongmu Technology, which is on the same track.
In June, 2021, Zongmu Technology announced the formal completion of Series D financing with a cumulative amount of $190 million.. Among them, the D3 round was led by Xiaomi Changjiang Industrial Fund, and the investors included Fosun Chuangfu, Langtai Capital, Shanghai Kechuang, Industrial Bank, strategic investors Changan Automobile and Coboda Investment.
Zongmu Technology completed 9 rounds of financing before IPO, and the accumulated subscription amount reached 2.247 billion yuan. Among them, in the E round of financing in March 2022, Zongmu Technology raised 867 million yuan at the subscription price of 93.56 yuan/share, and the company’s valuation exceeded 9 billion yuan.
However, the financing journey of Zongmu Technology is always interrupted for various reasons..
Zongmu used to be very close to listing. On January 19th, 2017, Zongmu Technology was approved to be listed on the National Small and Medium Enterprise Share Transfer System (NEEQ) with the stock code of 870816. However, "considering the business strategy and compliance cost at that time, we adjusted the future development strategy". Less than one year later, Zongmu Technology completed the termination of listing on December 11th, 2017.
The vigorous Shanghai Stock Exchange in 2022 has almost become a reality. However, in the end, due to the development strategy and other reasons, Zongmu Technology voluntarily withdrew its previous A-share listing application, and the withdrawal was officially accepted on September 27, 2023.
In the meantime,There is also news from the pulse that Zongmu Technology has a saying that the salary of fresh graduates will be reduced by 20%.

It may be that the road to listing is not smooth and the top management has fluctuated.In February 2024,CTO Wang Fan joined Beidou Zhilian, and Wang Fan was one of the four core executives of Zongmu Technology. He started to build the Beijing Autopilot R&D Center, and completed the research and development of AVP1.0 in Zongmu Technology in 2017.
Fortunately, the new employee was the original team, and he was replaced by Jiang Weiping. He joined Zongmu Technology as early as 2013, and had previously worked in CSR Semiconductor Company and NVIDIA. Later, he left Zongmu Technology due to infighting and did not return to Zongmu until the end of 2022.

Go to the new track
On the premise that the APA market is saturated, Zongmu Technology tries to go further to the charging robot track.
In 2023, nearly 65% of Zongmu Technology’s revenue sources are car gauge sensors. Compared with technology companies, Zongmu Technology is more like a manufacturing enterprise. This may come from another manufacturing attribute of the founder, Tang Rui, CEO, who also founded Can Cong Robot.
In the official LinkedIn,The latest position of Zongmu Technology is the on-site operation and maintenance engineer of intelligent energy storage charging robot, and some positions are in Ningbo, mainly in Shanghai.

In late January of this year, Zongmu Technology and Can Cong Science and Technology launched the charging treasure in the automatic driving field and the low-speed fully automatic driving charging robot FlashBot. According to the prospectus,The first generation of FlashBot is equipped with 104 kWh storage capacity, which is one of the robots with the highest storage capacity among all L4-class self-driving energy service robots developed in the world.
Tang Rui said, "Can Cong robots are building a highly flexible mobile energy network to promote energy trading in a larger space-time range." At the application level, the most intuitive embodiment is to save electricity and money.
In December last year, two Flashbot were put into commercial operation in Zhangjiang Park, and an average of 272 kwh of electricity was purchased from the local microgrid every day, of which 185 kwh was sold back to the microgrid, and 87.5 kwh was used to provide charging service for new energy vehicles, with an average daily cycle of 2.6 times, which brought more than 12,000 yuan in income in that month, that is, the average daily net income of each device was close to that of 200 yuan.
Before the robot officially appeared, Zongmu Technology had actually been laying out its energy business.Zongmu Technology has also designed a set of SaaS software and a DragonNet program to maintain on-site operation. If the charging robot of Zongmu Technology can be commercialized, it may make some changes in the charging pile scene.
According to the data in the prospectus, from 2021 to 2023, the sales revenue of Zongmu Technology from wireless charging equipment and accessories for new energy vehicles was 129,000 yuan, 11.357 million yuan and 437,000 yuan respectively.
In addition, as an "external charging treasure" loaded with sensors, Flashbot is also a part of the flywheel that I hope to build. The energy service robot conducts algorithm training in different driving cases, and then gives data support to the ADAS car-level hardware.
Looking at the highlights of this reorganization of business, Zongmu Technology began to break through into more subdivided markets, and may be able to complete the listing more lightly. At that time, it will be the third listed company in the Xiaomi automobile industry chain after Sagitar and Hesai.
