The financial report of listed supermarkets is not optimistic, and the "store closing tide" is still spreading. How can brands save themselves?

  Recently, the latest financial report released by RT Mart’s parent company Gaoxin Retail Co., Ltd. (06808.HK, Gaoxin Retail) shows that as of the first quarter of 2024, the company achieved revenue of 72.567 billion yuan in the latest fiscal year, down 13.3% year-on-year; During the year, the loss was 1.668 billion yuan, compared with the profit of 78 million yuan in the same period of last year. The loss was mainly caused by the impairment of the right to use assets, fixed assets and goodwill of negative cash flow stores, closed stores and stores to be closed.

  It is understood that the main revenue sources of Gaoxin Retail are sales of goods, membership fees and rental income, among which the revenue from selling products through offline stores and online channels accounts for more than 95% of the total revenue. With the advent of the post-epidemic era, the supply guarantee business has contracted rapidly; On the other hand, consumption habits and market demand are constantly changing, consumers are gradually returning to rationality, and "hoarding goods" has become a thing of the past. "Although the offline passenger flow has picked up slightly, the decline in average passenger orders has led to a decline in the high number of offline revenues." The company said frankly in the financial report. With the shrinkage of stores, the number of members and tenants continues to decrease, and the income further declines.

  Judging from the recent annual report and quarterly report published by various supermarket enterprises, the above problems are not the sufferings of Gaoxin Retail.

  Declining performance and frequent store closures.

  In 2023, 9 of the 13 supermarket listed companies experienced a decline in revenue, and more than half of them suffered losses, of which () they have suffered losses for three consecutive years, and Lianhua Supermarket’s net profit returned to its mother dropped sharply, with a drop of 273.71%. In the first quarter of 2024, the number of enterprises with declining revenue increased, while the net profit of () and China Shunkelong decreased by 619.18% and 125% respectively, making the life of traditional supermarkets more and more difficult.

  In the current consumption environment, it is an indisputable fact that the traditional supermarket model no longer has obvious competitive advantages. In 2023, despite the gradual recovery of the national consumption environment, the overall performance of the FMCG market was poor, with the total omni-channel retail sales down by 0.5% compared with the previous year, and the retail sales in the offline market down by 3.6% compared with the previous year. It is worth noting that in 2023, the retail sales of department stores, convenience stores, specialty store and brand specialty stores in retail units above designated size increased by 8.8%, 7.5%, 4.9% and 4.5% respectively over the previous year, and only the retail sales of supermarkets decreased by 0.4% over the previous year. From 2020 to 2022, the total revenue of listed companies in Toushang Supermarket continued to decline.

  Affected by the weak recovery of terminal consumption, the supermarket "closing tide" is still spreading. Take CR Vanguard as an example. Since its inception in 2024, the brand has closed more than 10 stores nationwide, including its high-end brand "Wanjia City" and boutique brand "Blt". From 2020 to 2022, CR Vanguard, as the industry’s leading brand, has closed more than 100 stores in succession, and this 40th anniversary enterprise has once again reached a crossroads.

  Traditional supermarket brands such as Wal-Mart, Carrefour, RT Mart, Lianhua and Wumart have not been spared. According to incomplete business statistics, in the first quarter of 2024, about 1,200 supermarkets in China announced the closure of their stores, and the above brands were among them.

  According to the research report of China Chain Store & Franchise Association, the traditional supermarket enterprises are facing three core challenges: the continuous loss of customers who arrive at the store, the gradual lack of commodity difference competition and the increasing operating cost of the store. Among them, the most significant change is that the characteristics of customer differentiation are becoming more and more prominent, and the younger generation of consumers have higher awareness and recognition of new brands such as Boxma Xiansheng; At the same time, the differentiation of products and channels in traditional supermarkets has narrowed significantly. "Promotion", "discount" and "membership price", including last year’s lively "moving mountains" and "tug-of-war", are essentially "price wars" for homogenized products. However, in the face of the strong industrial chain advantages of membership-based warehouse supermarket giants such as Sam and Kaikouke, the operating costs of traditional supermarkets are getting higher and higher, and their price advantages are not outstanding.

  Under siege, traditional supermarkets are also actively looking for new ideas to solve problems.

  Idea 1: Adjustment and optimization

  At the beginning of May, the news about Henan Pangdonglai Trading Group’s "rescue" of Yonghui Supermarket Co., Ltd. (601933.SH, Yonghui Supermarket) triggered a heated public debate. As the "hand of God" of Shangchao and the helm of Fat East, can Yu Donglai really help Yonghui, which has been troubled by the decline in performance for a long time? The answer will be announced in June.

  According to relevant media reports, Fat Donglai’s assistance in this transformation involves Yonghui Supermarket Zhengzhou Hanhai Beijindian Store and Xinxiang Baolong Plaza Store. The transformation of the two stores will be started at the beginning of June and the end of June respectively. After the transformation, Yonghui’s existing supply chain system will be the main store, and Fat Donglai will make a structural supplement, and the cooked food series and baking series that Fat Donglai sells well will be introduced with full reference to the commodity structure of Fat Donglai.

  Before Fat Donglai intervened in the adjustment and reform, Yonghui Supermarket had started the road of adjustment and optimization. For example, add baking, pastry, cooked food and other processing and catering areas in some stores to expand diversified consumption scenarios; In some stores, large packages of snack food and large-capacity laundry detergent are introduced to meet the shopping needs of family consumers. At the beginning of this year, Yonghui Supermarket opened the first "customized store" in China-Yunnan flagship store, focusing on the multi-level commodity structure of "global+national+local", and introduced local specialties such as Yunnan ham, dried beef and gastrodia elata for the first time.

  In fact, compared with Yonghui supermarkets all over the country, Fat Donglai, who lives in a corner, can’t be compared with it in terms of performance, scale and influence. According to the list of "TOP100 Chain Stores in China in 2022" issued by China Chain Store & Franchise Association, Yonghui Supermarket ranks second in the chain supermarket industry, second only to Wal-Mart, and is "far ahead" of other domestic brands, and the company’s performance in its glorious period is close to 100 billion. However, since 2021, the company has suffered losses for three consecutive years, with a cumulative amount of 8 billion yuan. Although the company’s losses were further narrowed in 2023, the company’s revenue still dropped significantly in the first quarter of this year.

  At the same time, Fat Donglai has gradually gained advantages in store planning and management, employee welfare and customer service, and in recent years, it has become stronger and stronger in terms of quality-price ratio and influence. What is even more rare is that Fat Donglai is willing to share his successful experience with his peers in trouble. It is reported that since 2023, Fat Donglai has extended a helping hand to more than 10 retail enterprises with operational difficulties.

  Among them, BBK Commercial Chain Co., Ltd. (002251.SZ, ()) is also facing the decline of performance year after year and losses for three consecutive years. Unlike Yonghui Supermarket, which is in the first echelon of the industry, BBK has reached the edge of life and death. In 2023, BBK closed 113 stores with no hope of turning losses; On October 26th of the same year, the Intermediate People’s Court of Xiangtan City, Hunan Province ruled that BBK went bankrupt and reorganized due to its inability to pay off the debts due and its obvious lack of solvency. On October 31st, BBK shares were warned of delisting risk since the resumption of trading, and its share price continued to fall.

  At this time, Fat Donglai appeared, and several poorly managed stores under BBK were optimized and upgraded in all directions from the aspects of layout, shopping environment, commodity structure, quality and price, and personnel service. BBK made it clear in the annual report that in 2024, with the help of Fat Donglai, the company will reshape corporate culture, management system, store operation and supply chain, and strive to create a sincere, beautiful and loving corporate culture and high-quality stores, and rebuild supermarkets and department stores with reference to the standard of "Fat Donglai is local, and local Fat Donglai is local".

  Is the adjustment really effective? Recently, BBK released a set of data: after more than 20 days of adjustment and reform, BBK Meixihu Supermarket has reached a peak of 1.4 million yuan from the original daily sales of 150,000 yuan and an average daily passenger flow of 2,000 people, and the store passenger flow has exceeded 15,000 people; After the adjustment, Jiuhua Store of BBK Supermarket sold 1.64 million yuan on the first day of opening. This adjustment and reform eliminated 70% of low-quality and low-price goods from the shelves. After the adjustment and supplement are in place, its product structure will reach 90% of that of Pangdonglai. At the same time, BBK Supermarket also announced that all stores in Hunan stopped all marketing activities and lowered the retail price of more than 3,000 commodities again. Judging from the news released by BBK official micro recently, it seems that "practicing the concept of coming from the fat east" has become the belief of the company, and the performance of turning losses into profits in the first quarter has also made the company see hope.

  In addition to consulting the industry’s "military division", other supermarkets are also accelerating the adjustment and optimization of stores. At the end of 2023, in order to welcome the 40th anniversary of the company’s establishment, CR Vanguard launched eight cities and nine stores, which will be renewed and upgraded. CR Vanguard said that the company is implementing the upgrading measures of some stores in a planned way. In the next one to two years, the stores will continue to upgrade, and the integrated urban agglomeration of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Greater Bay Area, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta will be clearly included in the follow-up development focus. The core of this upgrading plan is omni-channel layout and integrated operation, focusing on the value of single customers, focusing on accurate marketing of members and enhancing the consumer experience.

  Idea 2: Transformation and upgrading

  Yonghui Supermarket and BBK gradually reversed the trend in the process of adjustment and optimization. The loss of the former narrowed, while the latter turned losses into profits, and the "self-help" measures were effective in stages. On the basis of adjustment and optimization, can we take greater steps? Many brands tend to transform and upgrade on a large scale. CR Vanguard set its sights on the purchasing power of high-net-worth customers, and upgraded some stores that did not meet the new strategic positioning to "Olé" and "BLT" high-end supermarkets, and at the same time broadened the service radius of stores to meet the upgrading needs of consumers in business circles. In fact, CR Vanguard has been deeply involved in the field of boutique supermarkets for many years. This year marks the 20th anniversary of the establishment of the "Olé" brand, and the number of stores in China has exceeded 120. Olé’ s own brand has been extended to fruits and vegetables, aquatic products, meat, eggs and milk, baby care and household items, and nearly 500 products have been launched. However, as a sub-brand, "Blt" is losing momentum because its brand positioning and product structure are not "differentiated" from "Olé".

  Compared with the layout in advance in CR Vanguard, more brands choose overweight boutique supermarkets in order to adapt to the changes in market structure, business model and consumption habits. In May 2023, the ——Green&Health Jade Bird Store, the first "big community+small warehouse" model store of Hangzhou Lianhua Chinese businessmen, opened; In November of the same year, the innovative format of Lianhua Supermarket-Century Lianhua CityLife high-end boutique supermarket Shanghai Gubei Store opened. Prior to this, Box Horse’s first high-end supermarket, Premier Black Label Store, also chose to open in Shanghai. Compared with warehouse-based member stores with relatively remote locations, most boutique supermarkets in the core business district are more likely to attract customers to the stores for consumption.

  But does large traffic mean high customer orders? But not really. According to the real feelings of Yinshi Finance’s recent visit to boutique supermarkets, most boutique supermarkets have the actual situation of "more people loitering than buying" and "higher product unit price but lower transaction amount". Different consumer groups have obvious differences in their cognition of boutique supermarkets, and boutique supermarkets are not the first choice for most consumers. What determines the "admission" and "farewell" of boutique supermarkets? )

  In order to improve the guest list and efficiency, in addition to boutique supermarkets, in the eyes of traditional supermarket brands, warehouse membership stores are also a new way. Heading for member stores is a new way for Gaoxin Retail to find for itself. In the recent fiscal year, Gaoxin Retail has opened 6 RT Mart (hypermarkets), 14 RT Mart Super (medium-sized supermarkets) and 3 M-member stores, with a total of 472 hypermarkets and 32 medium-sized supermarkets. In April 2023, the first M-member store opened in Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province. During the reporting period, the number of paid members has exceeded 60,000, and the total number of members has exceeded 110,000. As of March 31, 2024, the cumulative number of paid members in China was about 140,000, and the total number of members was nearly 240,000. The company has started the project of 4 M member stores, and plans to open 15 member stores within three years. However, as far as the scale and structure of the company’s existing stores are concerned, member stores still cannot become the main revenue force in the short term.

  According to the data released by Ai Media Consulting, from 2012 to 2022, the scale of China warehousing membership supermarket industry has always remained above 20 billion yuan. In 2023, the scale of the industry reached 36.41 billion yuan, and it is expected to approach 40 billion yuan in 2024, which has great development space. In the field of warehouse-style member stores, Sam, Box Horse and Metro have accumulated a number of loyal users, and the head effect is gradually emerging. Other brands need to have more prominent supply chain advantages or form distinctive brand characteristics to get a share, and the competition will be further intensified. Take Nanjing as an example. At present, there are seven warehouse membership supermarkets such as Metro, Sam Member Store, Box Horse X Member Store and M Member Store, and Costco will be opened at the end of May. In the future, there will be more and more high-energy cities with multiple brand warehouse membership supermarkets like Nanjing.

  The competition between the two new tracks is so fierce, is there any other way to solve the problem? Then try them all. In 2023, () chose to "bet" on new formats. The company successively launched new brands such as Yueji Snack Shop and Haohuixing Discount Store, and focused on promoting franchise business. In the first quarter of 2024, Jiajiayue opened 12 directly operated stores and added 8 franchised stores. Among them, snack shops, discount stores, convenience stores and other formats realized revenue of 53.5442 million yuan, up 46.66% year-on-year, and the growth momentum was obviously better than that of general supermarkets, rural supermarkets and other formats. At the same time, Jiajiayue chose to avoid the high-speed cities where high-quality supermarkets and warehouse member stores gather, and focused on developing markets in Shandong and its surrounding Inner Mongolia, Beijing, Hebei, northern Anhui and northern Jiangsu. Through the network layout of dense areas, urban and rural integration and multi-formats, it created a "quarter-hour" convenient life circle in sinking communities and township markets, and at the same time, it relied on stores to carry out online services such as home service and pick-up at stores, and also took over the business of "community group buying"

Survey: 92.5% of the respondents expect to implement the new provident fund loan policy as soon as possible.

  Housing accumulation fund is a special fund to solve the housing problem of employees. However, in reality, for various reasons, the use of provident fund loans for housing purchases often encounters problems. A few days ago, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the Ministry of Finance, the People’s Bank of China and the Ministry of Land and Resources jointly issued the Notice on Safeguarding the Rights and Interests of Housing Provident Fund Deposited into Employees’ Housing Loans (hereinafter referred to as the Notice), which regulated the business acceptance period of the housing provident fund management center, the assessment of entrusted banks, and the behavior of developers to restrict housing provident fund loans.

  Last week, a survey of 2010 respondents conducted by the Social Investigation Center of China Youth Newspaper showed that 46.1% of the respondents had been blocked by provident fund loans to buy a house, and 55.8% of the respondents pointed out that second-hand housing owners often refused to accept provident fund loans or portfolio loans because of the long approval time of provident fund. 92.5% of the interviewees expect their places to implement the Notice as soon as possible, and 67.6% of the interviewees believe that the new provident fund loan policy will enable employees to truly enjoy the preferential purchase of houses.

  Among the respondents, 66.9% have occupied their own houses, 22.1% are buying them, and 11.0% have not occupied their own houses. Respondents living in first-tier cities accounted for 30.6%, second-tier cities accounted for 44.9%, third-and fourth-tier cities accounted for 18.8%, towns and counties accounted for 4.5%, and rural areas accounted for 1.2%.

  55.8% of the respondents pointed out that second-hand house owners often refused to accept provident fund loans because of the long approval period.

  "The interest rate of provident fund loans is much lower than that of commercial loans, but the application process is long, and some are as long as half a year." Liu Yang (a pseudonym), 30, is a staff member of Shenyang Municipal Government in Liaoning Province. Six years ago, he bought a new house with a provident fund loan. It took him three or four months to apply for a provident fund loan, and the procedures often could not be completed at one time, so he had to make several trips. "Sometimes I need to go through the next procedure with the approved results, and the processing time is limited. Our family is very anxious and urged for a long time, and finally some things are delayed."

  Wang Yuan, a resident of a town in Tangshan, Hebei Province, just bought a newly opened residential house in full a few days ago. "The developer directly indicated that he only accepts full customers without any discussion. It is also said that the next phase of the new real estate is also sold in this way, and the price may double. I want to buy it as soon as possible. "

  According to the survey, 78.4% of the respondents found that the use of provident fund loans to buy a house was generally blocked, and 22.4% of the respondents bluntly said it was very common. 46.1% of the respondents have been blocked by provident fund loans to buy a house, 46.8% of the existing housing groups have encountered this situation, and 58.2% are buying a house.

  Liao Beibei (pseudonym), who worked in Beijing for two years, bought a stock house at the end of 2017. She recalled that in more than an hour after signing the contract, the intermediary did not ask her which loan method to choose, and directly defaulted to pure commercial loans. "At that time, there were so many things that I forgot to use the provident fund loan. Later, when asked about the intermediary, he said that the house I bought was on the high side, and I could only borrow for 7 years by using the provident fund loan. "

  The survey shows that the most common situation when buying a house with provident fund loans is that second-hand house owners do not accept provident fund loans or portfolio loans because of the long approval period of provident fund (55.8%). Others include: second-hand house owners cannot use provident fund loans because of the age limit of second-hand houses, or the loanable period is short (44.8%), developers stipulate that commercial loans are preferred or discounted (44.6%), developers do not accept provident fund loans to buy a house (35.9%), and second-hand house owners directly indicate that commercial loan customers are given priority.

  Jiang Tao (pseudonym), a broker in a certain district of a national chain housing agency in Beijing, revealed that the proportion of customers who use provident fund loans is lower than that who use commercial loans. First, it takes a long time to go through the formalities of provident fund loans, and owners generally hope to collect money as soon as possible. At the same price, owners usually prefer full-payment customers, followed by commercial loan customers, and finally provident fund loan customers, and customers need to increase their prices to enhance their advantages. Second, the current maximum amount of provident fund loans in Beijing is 1.2 million yuan, and the low monthly deposit may not reach this level, which requires customers to increase the down payment. In addition, the buildings with long building age and brick-concrete structure also affect the use of provident fund loans to some extent. "It is not uncommon for new real estate developers to require a down payment of more than 50%. Some developers will give customers corresponding discounts according to the amount of down payment in order to get the funds back as soon as possible."

  Professor Yi Cong, deputy dean of the School of Economics of Tianjin University of Finance and Economics, pointed out that there are two main reasons for the low efficiency of the use of provident fund at present: first, the approval period of provident fund loans is really too long, the approval procedures are complicated, and the restrictions on purchases and loans will also lengthen the approval time. Second, affected by the long approval time, developers will put provident fund loan customers behind and treat different consumers differently. This is an act of infringing on consumers’ rights and interests.

  67.6% of the respondents believe that the new provident fund loan policy will enable employees to truly enjoy the preferential purchase of houses.

  "I have seen dozens of houses before and after last year, and I often encounter the situation that the owners only consider the full amount and commercial loan customers." Cheng Xiao (pseudonym), an employee of a foreign company in Beijing, lamented, "After all, there are only a few people who can buy a house in full in Beijing, and the commercial loan interest rate is high, which makes the ordinary working class very difficult."

  Cheng Xiao noted that the Notice requires the housing provident fund management center and the entrusted bank to standardize the loan business process, and the examination and approval work will be completed within 10 working days from the date of accepting the loan application. She believes that this move has solved the most critical problem of blocked provident fund loans. "In the future, the procedures for provident fund loans will even be faster than commercial loans, and working-class people can really enjoy the benefits of buying a house."

  Wang Yuan said that the "Notice" provides a channel for the masses to report discrimination against provident fund loan customers, which is thoughtful and comprehensive.

  According to the survey, 92.5% of the respondents are looking forward to the implementation of the Notice as soon as possible, and 42.1% of the respondents expressed great expectation. 67.6% of the respondents believe that the new provident fund loan policy will enable employees to truly enjoy the preferential treatment of buying houses, 57.4% of the respondents believe that the provident fund loan channel will be effectively guaranteed, 53.8% of the respondents believe that the new policy can effectively crack down on developers who suppress provident fund loan groups in disguise, and 34.6% of the respondents believe that the new policy can greatly shorten the processing period of provident fund loan procedures and provide convenience for employees to buy houses.

  To make the Notice effective, Yi Cong pointed out: "First, the detailed implementation rules are the guarantee for the implementation of the policy. Around the housing provident fund management center must be around the "notice" as soon as possible to introduce the implementation details, really improve the efficiency of provident fund loans. Second, strictly implement the spirit of the Notice and come up with reasonable market supervision measures. As the supervision department of the housing market, the Housing Authority should supervise all discriminatory behaviors of developers and accept and handle consumer complaints in a timely manner. "

  Yi Cong told reporters that the problem of low utilization rate of provident fund loans has been raised by the government and academic circles for many years, and the traditional provident fund management methods and systems should indeed be improved. "The future provident fund system should be reformed in a more market-oriented direction. Like Germany, the provident fund can be gradually moved to a policy-oriented special savings bank. China now has Sino-German Housing Savings Bank, which is a more market-oriented housing policy savings bank. In the future, it is necessary to gradually improve the efficiency of the use of the provident fund and safeguard the rights and interests of consumers in order for it to play its due role. "

  Liu Yang hopes that all localities will really shorten the processing time of provident fund loans. "The staff of relevant departments should improve their work efficiency, and the service windows should be set as centrally as possible. It is best to explain clearly the procedures and processes needed for handling provident fund loans through language or words, so that buyers can run less errands." (Reporter Du Yuanchun, Zhang Ruobai)

SAIC Chase’s brand-new pickup truck brand was released, and six new cars were launched together, making it a new choice for passengers.

Car Review Observation "Car Review Society"

I once chatted with my dealer friends, which car, SUV and MPV have the longest life cycle? The answer was unexpected and turned out to be a pickup truck. There is no reason for this. This kind of car can pull and run, which not only has the sitting posture of SUV, the passability of off-road vehicle, the luxurious configuration of car, but also provides the loading and dragging ability comparable to that of truck. The rich versatility has expanded the new gameplay in various use scenarios, and also increased the modification potential sharply.

However, due to road rights restrictions such as road restrictions, pickup trucks do have a certain distance from people’s cars in China. Fortunately, the policy of many places has gradually opened up. With the rise of demand for camping and self-driving, pickup trucks are moving towards passenger use, and consumers are also welcoming. A hundred flowers are blooming.

For example, SAIC Chase MAXUS, since its listing in 2016, has been in the field of vertical pickup trucks for 7 years, and quickly achieved the first growth rate in the market segment. Now, SAIC Chase MAXUS has launched the Star brand while the iron is hot, and listed six new cars in one breath. Let’s take a look at the specific performance.

Xiao Bian understands: Star L and Star R are more like a sister car combination. The overall outline of the two cars continues the design style of T70, and the starting price is 928 and 112,800 yuan respectively. In terms of positioning, the former focuses on "fashion quality" and the latter is "international all-around". Both of them offer diesel models to choose from.

Among them, Star L provides a combination of a 2.4L gasoline engine and a 2.0T diesel engine, and has two body sizes, namely standard box version and long box version. The maximum size of the central control screen reaches 10.25 inches, and the diesel version is matched with a 5-speed /6-speed manual gearbox, and the part-time 4wd system is optional.

StarCraft R is more advanced, and it is available in two sizes: standard box version and long box version. The appearance of the new car provides a black crossover kit, and the visual effect is more sporty and younger. The interior adopts the popular dual screen design, and the LCD instrument and the central control large screen are 10.25 inches and 12.3 inches respectively, and are equipped with Tencent TAI 4.0 ecosystem.

In terms of power, StarCraft R provides 2.0T gasoline/diesel power. The maximum power of the gasoline model is 192KW and the maximum torque is 410Nm;. The diesel version is matched with a 6-speed manual /8-speed automatic gearbox, and also has a four-wheel drive system from Borgwarner.

Star H is an advanced model. The new car is based on T90, and the starting price is 136,800 yuan. In terms of body size, the new car also continues the standard box version and the long box version, and has been upgraded for the interior. It is equipped with a 12.3-inch dual screen and an electronic shift knob, which provides a combination of black, brown and white. The car has a stronger sense of advanced.

The main configuration includes: LED headlights, 6 airbags, ESP body stability system, sports seat, panoramic image, adaptive cruise, active braking and other L2-class driver and auxiliary systems. In the power part, the 2.0T gasoline/diesel engine is still available. The diesel engine is available in two versions: single supercharged version and double supercharged version. According to different models, the transmission system is matched with a 6-speed manual or 8-speed automatic gearbox. The double supercharged version also provides an intelligent and timely four-wheel drive system.

In addition, Explorer StarCraft H has launched two models, the starting price is 398,800 yuan and 418,800 yuan respectively, which is the RV version. The advantage of the original factory modification is that the right of way is reasonable and legal, and the quality stability is more guaranteed. And the off-road style of Star H Niu Mowang, the visual effect is even more cool. Basically, each special edition is personalized according to different usage scenarios.

In view of the current hot new energy field, there is also an optional interstellar EV. The design of the new car is more personalized and flamboyant. The size of the front grille is quite huge, and the split lamp group is integrated with the China Net, forming a good overall feeling. At present, the new car has not disclosed specific power information, but referring to the performance of the current T90 EV and NEDC with a battery life of 535km, the performance of the interstellar EV is still worth looking forward to.

Star brand, more like focusing on the integration of T series, has further enhanced its competitiveness through design and configuration adjustment. At the same time, several models of L, R and H have also completed the market layout of 100,000-200,000. Especially, StarCraft H has launched several special versions such as Explorer, Niu Mowang and EV, which meet the individual needs of users, and the whole product line is quite rich.

Interpretation of Emission Standard of Air Pollutants for Gas Stations (GB20952—2020)

  Recently, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment and the State Administration of Market Supervision jointly issued the Emission Standard of Air Pollutants for Gas Stations (GB20952—2020).
  First, the necessity and background of standard revision?
  Since the implementation of the Emission Standard of Air Pollutants for Gas Stations (GB 20952—2007) in 2007, oil and gas pollution control in gas stations has been carried out in various places in accordance with the requirements of the standard, and positive progress has been made, which has promoted the progress of industrial production technology and pollution prevention technology and played an important role in the control of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in gas stations. However, with the change of energy policy and the in-depth implementation of standards, some problems stand out:
  First, the scope of application is incomplete. The original standard stipulates that the scope of application is gasoline filling stations. With the continuous deepening of China’s energy structure adjustment, many provinces have promoted the use of ethanol gasoline for vehicles. In addition, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Zhejiang, Henan and other provinces have introduced local standards to supply methanol gasoline for vehicles on a pilot basis. It is necessary to adjust the scope of application according to the actual situation.
  Second, some on-line monitoring technical requirements are difficult to operate. The monitoring requirements of the original standard online monitoring system, such as tightness and pipeline liquid resistance, are generally reflected by instrument manufacturers at home and abroad as difficult to achieve; The original standard lacks the performance index requirements of on-line monitoring system equipment components, and the pressure monitoring equipment, flow monitoring equipment and concentration monitoring equipment have not put forward specific performance indexes of range and accuracy. Therefore, it is necessary to enrich and improve the technical requirements of online monitoring system.
  Third, the necessity of installation of oil and gas treatment devices is controversial. In the practice of gas station pollution prevention and control, oil sales companies and some local eco-environmental management departments believe that the main scheme of gas station oil and gas pollution control is closed recovery rather than oil and gas treatment, and the oil and gas treatment device in oil storage depot is obviously superior to gas station in treatment scale, treatment capacity and energy consumption. Poor management of post-treatment device in gas station is actually equivalent to the discharge port, which has additional emission risk. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the installation requirements of oil and gas processing devices.
  Fourth, the monitoring is difficult and the implementation effect is not optimistic. The three monitoring indexes specified in the original standard, such as pressure, liquid resistance and gas-liquid ratio, are quite different from the conventional pollutant concentration monitoring, and the testing process requires professional explosion-proof operation and accessories, which is dangerous to some extent. Except for some key areas, law enforcement is generally insufficient, which leads to a great reduction in the implementation effect of standards.
  A series of documents recently implemented in China, such as the Three-year Action Plan to Win the Blue Sky Defence War, the Action Plan to Combat Pollution of Diesel Trucks, the Comprehensive Control Plan for Volatile Organic Compounds in Key Industries, and the Tackling Plan for Combating Volatile Organic Compounds in 2020, all propose to strengthen VOCs pollution control in oil storage, transportation and sales. In order to further promote the emission reduction of VOCs in gas stations, it is necessary to revise and improve the existing standards reflected by industries and localities, improve the feasibility, pertinence, scientificity and legality of the standards, and at the same time implement the requirements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on precise pollution control, scientific pollution control and pollution control according to law, so as to improve the enthusiasm of enterprises for pollution control.
  2. What are the characteristics of this revision in air pollutant emission control?
  This revision mainly considers the relevant suggestions of oil sales enterprises on VOCs emission control in gas stations and the operability of supervision by local ecological and environmental authorities, and adds some control requirements and emission monitoring items, which is beneficial for enterprises to understand the specific technical requirements of VOCs emission control, strengthen self-management and promote the further emission reduction of VOCs in gas stations.
  (A) expanded the scope of application
  The original standard stipulated the limits of gasoline oil and gas emission, control technical requirements and detection methods. This revision also included ethanol gasoline sold by gas stations and methanol gasoline below M30 into the scope of control, and stipulated the requirements of oil and gas emission control, monitoring and supervision and management in the process of gasoline unloading, storage and refueling.
  (B) Further clarified the control requirements.
  This revision puts forward specific operating procedures for oil and gas emission control in the unloading stage; The requirements of oil and gas emission control in the oil storage stage and refueling stage are extended to all gas stations, and it is proposed that there should be no oil and gas leakage when detecting the closed point of the oil and gas recovery system by infrared camera, and the requirements of closed recovery of condensate from the accumulator are put forward for the oil and gas recovery pipeline. Clarify the index requirements of online monitoring system; Adjust the installation requirements of oil and gas treatment devices; According to the operation characteristics of oil and gas recovery system in gas station, the detection method and process are modified and refined.
  (C) Increased atmospheric environmental monitoring projects.
  In this revision, in order to effectively measure the sealing condition of gas station oil and gas recovery system, according to the relevant limit provisions in the original oil storage standard and referring to the Control Standard for Unorganized Emission of Volatile Organic Compounds (GB 37822—2019), the oil and gas leakage emission limit value of gas station oil and gas recovery system is added; According to the relevant requirements in Integrated Emission Standard of Air Pollutants (GB16297—1996) and Technical Specification for Application and Issuance of Pollutant Discharge Permit (HJ 1118—2020), the unorganized emission limit of VOCs at enterprise boundary was added.
  (D) Strengthened enterprise self-monitoring requirements.
  This revision clearly requires enterprises to establish an oil and gas recovery system, maintenance and repair management ledger, and design, build and maintain sampling ports or sampling test platforms in accordance with the requirements of environmental monitoring management regulations and technical specifications. In this revision, a separate section "Monitoring of Air Pollutants" was set up in the standard to clarify the relevant monitoring frequency and indicators, and the criteria for judging the over-standard were added, which was beneficial for enterprises to carry out relevant monitoring.
  Third, the impact of standard implementation on the industry?
  This revision takes into account the principles of scientificity and feasibility, without further tightening the technical requirements of emission control. It changes the mandatory installation requirements of oil and gas treatment devices in the original standard to optional, and adds the leakage limit of unorganized emissions. On the basis of strictly controlling VOCs emissions, it improves the flexibility of gas station enterprises to independently select oil and gas recovery control devices. This revision mainly puts forward requirements from the aspects of strengthening the operation details of VOCs emission control and strengthening independent monitoring, which is beneficial for enterprises to strengthen the organized and unorganized emission control of VOCs in gas stations and improve the management level, thus promoting the effective emission reduction of VOCs in gas stations.
  IV. Environmental benefits after the implementation of the standards?
  According to estimates, after the implementation of the standard, VOCs emissions will be reduced by 123,000 tons per year, and the saved oil products will generate economic benefits of 860 million yuan. While reducing gas station emissions and improving atmospheric environmental quality, it can promote the green, low-carbon and high-quality development of the industry and achieve a win-win situation of environmental benefits and economic benefits.

In 2024, the national subsidy policy was introduced, and the red flag followed up overnight to start the first shot of "trade-in"

The 2024 Beijing Auto Show officially opened the public day today. I believe many friends have planned to go to the scene to enjoy the car. And friends who plan to change cars in the near future should pay attention. If you are not careful, you may miss the fixed subsidy of 10,000 yuan!

Recently, the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Finance and other seven ministries and commissions jointly issued the Detailed Rules for the Implementation of Automobile Trade-in Subsidies (hereinafter referred to as the Detailed Rules), which clarified the subsidy policy for automobile trade-in funds.

The scope and standards of subsidies are defined in the Detailed Rules: from the date of issuance of the Detailed Rules to December 31, 2024, individual consumers who scrap fuel passenger cars with national emission standards of Class III and below or new energy passenger cars registered before April 30, 2018, and buy new passenger cars that meet the energy-saving requirements, can enjoy a one-time fixed subsidy. Among them, those who scrap the above two types of old passenger cars and buy qualified new energy passenger cars will be subsidized by 10 thousand yuan; A subsidy of 7,000 yuan will be given to scrapped passenger cars with national emission standards of Class III and below (gasoline passenger cars registered before June 30, 2011, diesel passenger cars registered before June 30, 2013 and passenger cars with other fuel types) and purchased passenger cars with a displacement of 2.0 liters and below.

The specific application process of subsidies is as follows: individual consumers who intend to apply for automobile trade-in subsidies should fill in the application materials by logging into the website of the national automobile circulation information management system or the "automobile trade-in" applet before January 10, 2025, and the relevant materials should be obtained from the date of issuance of the Detailed Rules to December 31, 2024.

At the same time, consumers and friends need to pay attention, and the detailed rules clarify the requirements for supervision and management: relevant local departments should do a good job in subsidizing the old-for-new vehicles according to their duties and strengthen supervision and management. All localities shall not require that scrapped cars be sold to designated enterprises, and shall not set up a list of subsidies or enterprises with regional and technical product orientation. All localities should set up a telephone hotline for car trade-in, respond to public demands in time, and accept social supervision. Friends who want to get subsidies should call the hotline for detailed consultation before replacement, and beware of people with ulterior motives taking the opportunity to cheat.

Just after the "Rules" were officially released, we learned from the automobile official that Hongqi Automobile actively responded to the "Rules" and became the brand that started the first shot of "trade-in" this year, showing its "eldest son" demeanor.

Editor’s comment:

The opening year of China automobile market in 2024 was the news of successive price reductions by major brands, and now the Detailed Rules jointly issued by seven ministries and commissions further stimulated the market. However, as of the time of publication of this article, we have not received any news that other brands have entered a new round of subsidies, which shows that Hongqi Automobile has responded quickly to the policy. At the same time, the maximum subsidy of 50,000 yuan for all models can also be said to be rare in the industry. As the first luxury brand in its own brand, the market and consumers have a very high recognition of Hongqi, and this subsidy policy for Hongqi covers its best-selling models, which is an opportunity for consumers not to be missed. At the same time, we also look forward to the follow-up actions of other brands. After all, the promulgation of the Detailed Rules is good news for consumers and manufacturers.

In addition to the half-day holiday on March 8, women also have these 10 exclusive benefits

   CCTV News:During the two sessions, the spring is strong, and it is the "March 8" International Women’s Day.

  International Women’s Day is a festival for women all over the world to strive for peace, equality and development. According to the "National Holidays and Remembrance Days" promulgated by the State Council,On Women’s Day, women (generally speaking, female employees who have established labor relations) have a half-day holiday.

  Although Women’s Day is a legal holiday, it is worth noting that:

  On Women’s Day, female employees go to work without overtime pay.If the holiday falls on Saturday and Sunday and the unit arranges employees to work overtime, it shall pay overtime pay for rest days according to law;

  Employers also have no legal obligation to issue women’s day benefits.If there is an agreement in the collective contract or labor contract, or there is a provision in the rules and regulations, it should be handled according to this agreement and provision.

  Benefits granted on Women’s DayNot included in total wages.

  In addition to half a day off, women in the workplace also have these exclusive rights!

  For more than a century, women in various countries have made unremitting efforts to fight for their rights. The implementation of the Labor Law and the Law on the Protection of Women’s Rights and Interests provides special labor protection for female employees during menstruation, pregnancy, childbirth and lactation. In addition, women also enjoy a number of exclusive rights and preferential benefits.

  Fair employment, equal pay for equal work

  The first paragraph of Article 23 of the Law on the Protection of Women’s Rights and Interests stipulates that all units shall not refuse to hire women or raise the employment standards for women on the grounds of gender, except for jobs or posts that are not suitable for women.

  Article 27 of the Employment Promotion Law stipulates that an employer may not refuse to employ women or raise the employment standards for women on the grounds of gender.

  Multi-property leave can be extended for up to one year.

  The Special Provisions on Labor Protection of Female Employees clearly stipulates that female employees enjoy maternity.98 days maternity leaveAmong them, you can take 15 days off before delivery; In case of dystocia, maternity leave will be increased by 15 days; In case of multiple births, the maternity leave will be increased by 15 days for each additional baby.

  At present, many provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) have revised the local population and family planning regulations, and all localities have increased the duration of maternity leave for women to varying degrees. In 2017, Tibet explicitly extended maternity leave to one year through a document jointly issued by government departments, which is also the longest maternity leave in all provinces in China.

  On the basis of the 98-day maternity leave in the Special Provisions on Labor Protection of Female Workers, the revised regulations in various places have increased maternity incentive leave or extended maternity leave.Generally reaching 138 days to 158 days.And there is a man’s escort leave or nursing leave, which is generally 15 days to 30 days.

  Pay more attention to "special period"

  On March 1st, the Special Provisions on the Implementation of Labor Protection for Female Employees in Shaanxi Province came into effect, providing special labor protection for female employees during menstruation, pregnancy, childbirth and lactation. It is worth mentioning that this regulation specifies the "dysmenorrhea leave". If a female employee can’t work normally due to severe dysmenorrhea or excessive menstrual flow, she can apply for one to two days’ leave from the unit with the certificate of a medical institution above the second level.

  At present, at least 19 provinces have implemented "dysmenorrhea leave", which allows female employees to take a day or two off during special periods. However, local regulations are inconsistent. Some regulations only need to provide proof from medical institutions, while others limit the types of work, and only allow female employees with "third-level physical labor intensity" and "long-term standing and walking labor" to take "dysmenorrhea leave".

  Enjoy maternity leave and paid annual leave at the same time

  Article 6 of the Measures for the Implementation of Paid Annual Leave for Enterprise Employees stipulates: "The holidays prescribed by the state, such as family leave, funeral leave and maternity leave, which employees enjoy according to law, as well as the period of work stoppage with pay due to work-related injuries are not included in the annual leave."

  Therefore, there is no conflict between maternity leave and paid annual leave, and female employees can enjoy maternity leave and paid annual leave at the same time.

  Exclusive lounge

  According to the "Special Provisions on Labor Protection of Female Workers", employers with more female workers should establish facilities such as female workers’ health rooms, pregnant women’s lounges and nursing rooms according to the needs of female workers, so as to properly solve the difficulties of female workers in physical hygiene and breastfeeding.

  For female employees who need to stand for a long time in shopping malls, supermarkets, etc., the unit should set up rest seats in their workplaces.

  "Subsidy" is one more per month.

  At present, many provinces and cities have made it clear that female workers can receive a certain monthly subsidy for sanitary products. In recent years, with the rise in prices, this "subsidy" has also risen.

  For example, from November 1, 2015 in Hebei, the health expenses of female employees will be 4 to 6 yuan per person per month or the corresponding sanitary products will be adjusted and raised to 30 yuan per person per month or the corresponding sanitary products.

  From March 1st, 2009, the subsidy for sanitary products for female employees in Heilongjiang Province was raised from 10 yuan to 20 yuan per person per month.

  In Shanxi, it is clear that employers need to provide female employees with health expenses not less than that of 30 yuan per person per month, at least once a year for gynecological examination, "two cancers" special examination, 2% one-time nutrition subsidy and occupational health examination.

  "Life events" don’t toss

  In the face of "life events" such as marriage and having children, you don’t have to bother God anymore.

  Article 23, paragraph 2, of the Law on the Protection of Women’s Rights and Interests stipulates that all units shall sign labor (employment) contracts or service agreements with female employees in accordance with the law, and the labor (employment) contracts or service agreements shall not stipulate the contents that restrict the marriage and childbirth of female employees.

  The third paragraph of Article 27 of the Employment Promotion Law stipulates that an employer shall not stipulate in the labor contract the contents that restrict the marriage and childbirth of female employees. Even if there is a similar agreement in the labor contract, it is invalid.

  "Phase III" is well protected.

  "Phase III" refers to the female employees’.Pregnancy, childbirth and lactation. There are many laws and regulations in our country to protect the rights and interests of female employees from infringement during the "three phases".

  (1) jobs and wages are guaranteed.

  Article 26 of the Law on the Protection of Women’s Rights and Interests stipulates that no unit may dismiss female employees or unilaterally terminate labor contracts on the grounds of marriage, pregnancy, maternity leave and breastfeeding.

  ② Night shift and overtime work should be as little as possible.

  The "Special Provisions on Labor Protection for Female Employees" clearly stipulates that for female employees who have been pregnant for more than 7 months, the employer shall not extend working hours or arrange night work, and shall arrange certain rest time during working hours. If you are pregnant within 7 months, you can arrange it, but it is recommended that the employer try not to arrange it. In addition, the employer shall not extend working hours or arrange night shift work for female employees who breast-feed babies under one year old.

  (3) labor dispatch workers shall not be returned.

  According to the "Interim Provisions on Labor Dispatch", if the dispatched workers are in the "third phase", before the expiration of the dispatch period, the employer shall not return the female employees in the third phase to the labor dispatch unit due to economic layoffs or major changes in the objective situation; If the dispatch period expires, it shall continue until the corresponding situation disappears before it can be returned.

  ④ The labor intensity can be reduced.

  According to the Special Provisions on Labor Protection of Female Workers, if a female worker can’t adapt to the original labor during pregnancy, the employer shall, according to the certificate of the medical institution, reduce the amount of labor or arrange other adaptable labor.

  Menopausal care is indispensable.

  In addition to pregnancy, childbirth and lactation, the "Regulations on Health Care for Female Workers" includes menopausal health care. It requires employers to publicize the knowledge of menopause physiology and health, so that female workers entering menopause can get extensive social care.

  In order to ensure the physical and mental health of menopausal female workers, the Regulations on Health Care for Female Workers also requires employers to check and treat gynecological diseases every one to two years. At the same time, if the medical or maternal and child health care institutions at or above the county (district) are diagnosed as menopausal syndrome, and the treatment effect is still not significant, and they are not suitable for the original work, appropriate work should be arranged temporarily.

  Heavy manual labor can be refused.

  According to the "Special Provisions on Labor Protection of Female Workers", female workers have the right to refuse to engage in heavy manual labor such as underground mine operations:

  (1) Underground operations in mines;

  (two) the fourth level of physical labor intensity specified in the classification standard of physical labor intensity;

  (three) the load of more than 6 times per hour, each time more than 20 kilograms of work, or intermittent load, each time more than 25 kilograms of work.

  Female workers during pregnancy and lactation also have the right to refuse to engage in operations where the concentration of toxic substances exceeds the national occupational health standards.

Realizing the leaping development of China’s expressways will become the engine of economic prosperity.

  Dai Dongchang, Director of the Highway Department of the Ministry of Communications, answered a reporter’s question. China Net Yang Nan Photography


  Speaking at a news conference today (18th) about the development of national highways, Dai Dongchang, director of the Highway Department of the Ministry of Communications, said that the expressway construction in China started very late, but the rapid and leap-forward development has greatly improved the social and economic mobility of our country. It should be said that the great development of the whole highway traffic, including expressways, has supported the rapid development of our country’s social economy.


  Looking back on the development of national highways, Dai Dongchang thinks that there are three characteristics:


  First, it started very late. The first expressway was opened to traffic in 1988, and it was a short experimental road, which was a section of expressway from Shanghai to Jiading. Compared with developed countries and even many developing countries in the world, we started very late.


  Second, the initial stage of development is relatively slow. We lacked experience in technology, capital, policy and so on in the initial stage of expressway construction. Therefore, at the beginning, the primary stage is relatively slow. It took us more than ten years to build the first 10,000-highway expressway.


  Third, accelerate quickly. With the unification of people’s understanding and the accumulation of experience, especially with the new demand of social and economic development in our country, expressway construction began to accelerate in the middle and late 1990s. So we spent three years on the second 10,000 km, from 20,000 to 30,000, from 30,000 to 40,000, and from 40,000 to 50,000, respectively, and we can see the speed and construction progress. It should be said that China’s expressway construction has achieved a historic breakthrough and a leap-forward development, and this achievement has attracted worldwide attention. In particular, in a developing country like ours, its construction process was built by using the innovative mechanism of policies. Many international organizations and foreign counterparts, including the World Bank, are envious and appreciative of our achievements.


  Dai Dongchang said that it is precisely because of the rapid development of expressways and the phased construction achievements of national expressways with the national trunk line "five verticals and seven horizontals" that the social and economic mobility of our country has been greatly improved. It should be said that the great development of the whole highway traffic, including expressways, has supported the rapid development of our country’s social economy. At the same time, as a large channel such as expressway, it is beneficial to coordinate the coordinated development between urban and rural areas and regions.


  Dai Dongchang said that when the United States evaluated the 40th anniversary of the interstate highway, there were two comments. First, it said that the American interstate highway was the engine to promote the economic prosperity and development of the United States in the past 40 years. Second, this American investment in interstate highways is one of the best public investments in history.


  Dai Dongchang said that with the acceleration and continuous improvement of the construction process of our national expressway network, our national expressway will surely play a greater role.


  At 10: 00 a.m. on December 18th, the State Council Press Office held a press conference, and asked Weng Mengyong, Vice Minister of Communications, to introduce the planning and implementation of the "five vertical and seven horizontal" national trunk lines and answer reporters’ questions. Also present were Mr. Dong Xuebo, Director of the Comprehensive Planning Department of the Ministry of Communications, and Mr. Dai Dongchang, Director of the Highway Department.

Across the Furious Sea exposed poster Bo Huang Zhou Xun in love prison.


1905 movie network news The prison of love can’t catch bloody anger! The third film of the director’s "Burning Heart Series" recently released the poster of "Love is a Prison". The extreme contrast between red and blue highlights the bloody fetters between human nature and the drama is full of tension. The extreme emotional appearance of the characters hides their own pains, and also indicates the complicated fate relationship behind the characters. Malicious father avenges female anger, wolf mother tries her best to protect her son, and boys and girls fall in love abnormally … … In this prison of love, everyone is a prisoner trapped in people’s hearts. What kind of storms will they set off in the human inquiry of love and hate, crime and punishment? The 2023 crime suspense movie Across the Furious Sea was released nationwide on November 25th.


All the staff are trapped in the "prison of love" and vent their anger. The truth of the girl murder is more and more confusing. 


The film Across the Furious Sea, based on a girl’s murder in a foreign country, tore open the hidden truth of human nature between the victim and the suspect under the extreme revenge of life and death, blood and tears. In the poster "Love is a Prison" released today, the contrast between red and blue highlights the extreme anger. The characters in the poster are people who love each other, but also people who are deeply trapped in each other. Family and love are bound in prison. Lao Jin (ornaments), the "cruel father", is deeply saddened by his daughter’s dead body and wants to take revenge. Jing Lan (ornaments), the "wolf mother", indulges her son and stares at him, while Li Miaomiao (ornaments), the "bad boy", looks innocent and numb and just wants to seek her mother’s shelter. Ri-na Kim (ornaments), a young girl, cries helplessly in a morbid love relationship … … The two families are torn and collided with each other, and no matter how dark the disguise is, it can’t cover up the bloody truth. On this burning road of revenge, no one can get away with it, waiting for the truth to surface.


Cao Baoping sharply explores the truth behind family of origin and uncovers the dislocation relationship between parents and children in the name of love.


As the third part of the "Burning Heart" series, director Cao Baoping sharply shows that the current Chinese family relationship is out of control. Laojin did everything a father should do. He made up for his love for Nana’s vacancy with revenge, but invisibly revealed his strangeness and estrangement from his daughter’s feelings. Jing Lan’s love for Vivi, on the other hand, is completely opposite. He takes meticulous care of his children and always opens the door for him in the face of all kinds of bad behaviors. Two extreme parent-child relationships have also caused different personality problems between Li Miaomiao and Ri-na Kim: Ri-na Kim is extremely eager to be loved, while Li Miaomiao is spoiled and good at pretending. As the director said, "Li Miaomiao and Ri-na Kim are just two extremes, and their deformed love brings each other an atomic bomb-like injury."


The film not only focuses on Chinese-style family of origin, but also adds more thoughts and vitality to this universal topic. Through the family, the smallest social unit, the film explores the complexity of the present era and deepens the social significance and influence of the film. The director hopes to inject more thoughts on a series of human nature topics such as love and hate, crime and punishment under the strong plot and fast pace of the film, which will trigger the audience to explore the truth of human nature. Bo Huang, the star of the film, once admitted that "the cruelty of the film is to explore the heart, not only in the expression of the film language, but also in fact, it brings more visual and spiritual impact to the audience." As an annual crime suspense film, Across the Furious Sea crocheted a prison in the name of love, showing the emotional shackles behind the Chinese family, and violence tore open the truth of human nature under the shackles.


The film was directed and written by Across the Furious Sea Cao Baoping, co-written, starring Bo Huang and Zhou Xun, starring Youhao Zhang and Zhou Yiran, and featured. It will be released nationwide on November 25th.


300,000 buy MPV, can’t wait for BYD Xia, don’t forget it

To say that the hottest car at the Chengdu Auto Show, it is BYD Xia. At the node of the arrival of the MPV wave, carrying the fifth-generation DM technology and BYD’s word-of-mouth, the first MPV of Dynasty Network is definitely the top stream in the top stream. But as a simple debut, the IPO time is expected to be in the second half of the fourth quarter of the MPV, and users with rigid demand may not be able to wait that long. If you want to buy an MPV now, who can replace it?

By the way, BYD Xia said it is 300,000 level MPV. Then we will compare it with this price as a benchmark.

The reason why these two cars are placed first is because they are the closest in size to the summer.

Summer: 5145mm x 1970mm x 1805mm, wheelbase 3045mm.

Saina: 5165mm x 1995mm x 1765mm, wheelbase 3060mm.

The size difference between the two cars is less than 10cm, and the space performance should be very similar. Toyota’s MPV is very interesting to drive, with a sense of dexterity that other models in the same class do not have. I think in addition to the old car companies’ grasp of the chassis foundation, the motor in the 2.5L hybrid system also plays a key role. 270N · m torque is not big, but it is more than enough to maintain a start. The chassis performs well in MPV, whether it is pitch or roll suppression.

But the drawbacks are equally obvious: although the new model is equipped with double-layer soundproof glass, the high-speed noise control is only medium, the third row has no child seat interface, and lacks intelligent functions such as automatic parking. Overall, this is a space-qualified MPV with interesting driving.

This should be the representative model of Japanese MPVs in everyone’s subconscious, especially the Odyssey, which can be said to be the existence of "provincial" MPVs in Guangdong Province, and the streets are full of Odysseys of various eras. In fact, everyone should be very clear about this car’s performance.

Honda’s handling, space, power performance and fuel consumption (hybrid version) are obvious to all, and the 2998 version has the highest discount 50,000, the cost performance is already very high. So if the budget is not particularly high, and do not want to buy domestic brands, then the current Odyssey is still worth buying.

The high vertical redundancy of the MPV does not cause the embarrassment of head space after adding a large battery. There are many more opportunities to wait in the car than other models. In addition, the MPV is the most suitable model for plug-in hybrids when you almost go out for a long time. The Trumpchi E9 is equipped with a large 25.57-degree battery + 2.0TM hybrid engine + 2-speed DHT gearbox, which is the dessert of the MPV.

As one of the largest cars in 300,000 level, under the blessing of hardware size, E9 is to have space and texture, power and texture, fuel consumption and texture, comfort and texture, configuration and texture. As an old MPV manufacturer in China’s own brand, Trumpchi E9 is the top MPV of GAC. Now the whole series of discounts 30,000 big, 300,000 you can even land the championship version, it is really fragrant.

Talking about MPV in China without mentioning GL8 is like opening a martial arts hall in Tianjin without visiting the wharf. You may also find that I have written the name of the car for other models, but GL8 has written the configuration name, because the price span of GL8 is too large. From the lowest 200,000 to the top 4-seat version of 800,000, as long as you want to buy MPV, GL8 always has the one that suits you, which is also the secret of GL8’s longevity.
