How online celebrity’s products win a long reputation (People’s Review)

  Beijing yuyuantan park cherry blossom ice cream has become popular on social platforms, attracting many tourists to buy it; Sichuan Sanxingdui Museum launched Wenchuang ice cream with bronze mask as the prototype, which sold out as soon as it went on the market. Since the beginning of this year, ice cream with diverse shapes and rich sense of design has appeared one after another, bringing more choices to consumers and becoming a hot topic on the Internet.

  Ice cream has become online celebrity, reflecting the escalating consumption concept. With the rapid development of economy and society and the continuous improvement of living standards, people’s demand for ice cream has gone beyond simply quenching their thirst. New demand gives birth to new market space. Keen merchants capture the increasingly personalized and diversified needs, strengthen product research and development and marketing, and quickly turn them into selling points. For example, the novel tastes such as egg yolk ice cream and stinky tofu ice cream fit the consumption psychology of young people; "Low sugar and low calorie" ice cream conforms to the pursuit of healthy diet and weight control of some groups; Sincere and full of materials, with exquisite modeling, means the choice of quality … … A small ice cream can not only satisfy the taste enjoyment, but also carry multiple functions.

  In recent years, the scale of China’s ice cream market has been expanding. However, it should be noted that online celebrity ice cream has promoted the development of the industry, while some products are also facing controversy. Some products only have high-end pricing, and there is no matching quality. The news that some online celebrity ice creams were found to have exceeded the standard in sampling inspection also caused consumers’ concerns about health problems. In addition, after the popularity of Wenchuang ice cream, all scenic spots, large and small, competed to launch similar products and fell into a pattern of low-level imitation and lack of innovation. In fact, some online celebrity ice creams have quietly withdrawn from the market before the end of summer.

  The "flash in the pan" of some online celebrity ice cream is thought-provoking. It should be said that many online celebrity products have similar marketing paths: developing and designing products according to young people’s preferences, strengthening online marketing and promoting products, especially taking live broadcasts and sharing posts on social platforms to attract traffic and stimulate consumers to buy. In such a commercial chain, the quality and service of the products themselves are easily overlooked. Therefore, some online celebrity products seem to be able to create considerable sales performance in a short time, but they can’t stand the test of time. Facts have repeatedly proved that consumers ultimately value the quality of products and services, and marketing can only be icing on the cake, not the fundamental strategy to win market competition.

  The popularity of products is a process of natural spread of word of mouth. Relaxing the pursuit of quality and focusing on the shortcut of marketing is tantamount to giving up the basics. In this regard, grasping quality and cultivating internal strength is the long-term solution to win consumers. For example, after Liuzhou snail powder was well received by consumers, many local measures were taken simultaneously to form a joint force, which promoted the snail powder to become a local characteristic industry from online celebrity snacks and promoted the development of the real economy. Behind this, related companies have been exploring the standardized production of snail powder for many years and accumulated strong R&D capabilities and production strength. Observing the products that have been successfully precipitated from the flow of online celebrity, it is inseparable from hard work and long-term efforts.

  No matter how novel the design is and how fashionable the packaging is, quality and service are the key variables that affect the survival and development of enterprises. Online celebrity economy and other new formats and models bear the needs of the people for a better life and are associated with new economic growth points. Only by better converting online celebrity traffic into long-term reputation can enterprises win the trust of consumers and gain market share, thus promoting the sustained and healthy development of the industry.

Give you the big screen Apple iPhone6&6 Plus evaluation.

    In the early morning of September 10th, Beijing time, Apple put an end to the gossip on the Internet with a press conference that made people "guess the beginning and also the end". I brought an Apple Watch that I have met before, and a little unexpected.

    Even though there have been many speculations and early exposure events before the press conference, we are still waiting for them in front of the screen like looking forward to the "World Cup" every four years. Half is to verify the guess in my heart, and half is to look forward to the "The one more thing" that means surprise.

Give you the big screen Apple iPhone6&6 Plus evaluation.

    Then the conference was held at Flint Center in Cupertino, California, USA, where the first generation Macintosh computers were released in 1984. It has been proved that today’s Apple has indeed brought us a new product line-Apple Watch, which can match the historical position of this auditorium.

    Even if there are new products, we still pay more attention to the news of two new products. Among them, the naming method of Plus is indeed a little unexpected, and the addition of a horizontal screen interface similar to iPad also makes us start to think, is it necessary for this product to continue to exist?

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
Four products on sale: Plus (picture from Apple)

    The two new iPhone really look like this. I wonder if the friends in front of the screen have digested the design of the two new products in advance. Anyway, I still can’t accept such a rounded iPhone for the time being, or rather, it should be the "three bars" on the back of the fuselage (please support me from Virgo students).

Give you the big screen Apple iPhone6&6 Plus evaluation.

    As well as the Plus, the enlarged display panel has also expanded the fuselage. Among them, 5% of the products are undoubtedly declaring war on the big-screen products of rivals, while 4% of the products are the continuation of "one-handed feelings" and also a challenge for Apple’s ultimate pursuit.

    In terms of configuration, Apple A8 processor (CPU performance increased by 20%, GPU performance increased by 50%) and NFC module all appeared. In addition, although Apple did not mention the specific capacity of the battery, the endurance of the two new products has been fully upgraded. In addition, the camera module of Plus has also added an optical anti-shake module.

    In terms of storage capacity, Plus directly skipped the 32GB version, and after the 16GB diaosi version, it was the previous 64GB version, and then the new top version provided 128GB of storage space, which was consistent with the previously released iPad Air.

There is no Chinese mainland in the starting area with Plus (picture from Apple)

    As for the sale of the new machine, Apple seems to be more eager than the consumers in front of the screen. The reservation was accepted on September 13th, Beijing time, and it was officially released on September 20th. However, Chinese mainland was missing from the first batch of sales areas, so it seems that the opportunity can only be left to the real local tyrants.

    In addition, the official version of the iOS 8 system will be released on September 18th, Beijing time. For the old users who are still using iOS 7, even if they don’t change the new machine, the new features of iOS 8 are enough to get more new functions for the old devices in your hands. As for the specific content, we will start from the following.

    The "stunning" appearance of Hehe (hereinafter referred to as "they are different in size but identical in overall design") still continues the tradition of changing the appearance of the series of products from generation to generation, which should have started from the second generation of the series, from iPhone3G, iPhone3GS to iPhone4, and then to iPhone5/. In fact, we can also expect this before the news of exposure has spread all over the sky. On the other hand, the reason why I put quotation marks on the word stunning is because the change in the appearance of the iPhone seems to be the loudest one. When the iPhone4 was exposed, people were amazed at its design, but when the iPhone5 was exposed, they often heard it, but in fact, the appearance of the iPhone5/5s was still satisfactory enough. So, is it amazing or disappointing this time? Let’s follow in our footsteps and have a look.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
Final appearance

    If the iPhone5/5s is handsome and compelling, it gives people a somewhat more feminine and lovely feeling. Although the iPhone series models have not been suitable for using the word tough, they are really not as angular as the previous iPhone. In the visual treatment of the whole appearance, a large number of arc designs are adopted, which is also the reason why they look more feminine and lovely.

/6 Plus size comparison (left is right is Plus)

    Although its market performance can’t be said to be bad, it is certain that its sales volume is far below Apple’s expectations, so when Apple changed its tactics, we all know that this release has two versions with screen sizes-() and (Plus), which makes the fans who have been looking forward to the big-screen iPhone get what they want, and of course makes the "one-handed party" a little embarrassed, but in any case, the big screen is definitely a trend. The resolution of is 1334*750 pixels, while the resolution of Plus is 1920*1080 pixels.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
Size comparison of iPhone5s/6 Plus (left for iPhone5s, right for Plus)

    There are two size versions, the 4. version is called Plus, and the 5. version is called Plus. The size of the whole machine seems to be very well controlled. Although the screen size has increased a lot, the control of the three dimensions of the whole machine is still good, and the proportion of the whole screen has also increased compared with the past. The compactness of the front of the whole machine has become stronger and the visual impact is greater, which is why the three dimensions of the screen size have increased but it has remained excellent. Of course, this screen will be introduced in detail later.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
The /6 Plus uses 2.5D curved glass.

    The front of the fuselage is still a whole panel. What is different from the past is that we can see a certain curvature at the edge, which is the 2.5D curved glass used by many Lumia models. In the design of sensor and front camera, there is not much change compared with the past. The front camera is placed on the left side of the receiver, while the light+distance sensor is above the receiver. In the previous exposure, if there is a third "black spot" besides these openings, it should be a cottage.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
Home button and Touch ID of /6 Plus.

    At the bottom of the screen, it is still Apple’s iconic physical Home button with Touch ID function. Although we haven’t tested it in detail yet, I believe that the Touch ID will have a better performance in terms of experience (in fact, the one on the iPhone5s is already excellent enough …). In fact, because of the arc design of the panel edge and the change of the border, people have the feeling that the screen floats on the fuselage. I don’t know if this will make people like it.

    On the whole, although the size of the fuselage has changed, the change in the front is not too big, and most netizens focus on the back design. The back still adopts a three-stage design, but the difference is that the back of the whole fuselage, including the frame, is made of metal. From the design of double-sided glass in iPhone5 to this generation, it has officially come to an end.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
The back has a three-stage design.

    Because the back is made of a whole piece of metal, annoying signal problems also appear, and the screen adopts the same method as One, that is, it is divided into several parts, and the middle is filled with plastic material. After careful observation, we can find that there are not only two dividing lines that divide the back into three parts, but also a circle of such dividing lines on the whole back. It is precisely because of these designs that many netizens express that the back is too ugly.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
//Contrast on the back (as Plus on the right in iPhone5s)

    If these are relatively easy to resist, then what I want to say next may be the most unacceptable fact for fruit fans. The camera of iPhone is convex. In the past, fruit fans were proud of the whole flat back. "XXX can’t make the camera not protrude like iPhone?" !” This sentence seems to be missing for a while in the future. On the bright side, the protruding height of this camera is not too high, and there is a border around it, so netizens still don’t have to worry about protection. However, one thing to note here is that both Plus and Plus still use 8 megapixel cameras, but the specifications are still improved, and they support digital image stabilization. Plus supports optical image stabilization (sure enough, there are differences between the two versions).

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
Camera confirmation bump of

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
 Plus has not been spared.

    There is a microphone for noise reduction next to the camera, and the flash is on the right. We can see that the size of this flash is still relatively large, because it has made two flash lamps arranged vertically in the past into a whole circle, and it is also a dual-color LED flash, which has improved the exposure effect and nature, which has been recognized by many users on the iPhone5s. This design also deepens the element of cuteness that I mentioned at the beginning.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
The one on the back is really not very beautiful

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
The same symmetrical design below.

    The position in the middle of the fuselage is still the familiar Apple logo. Compared with this design and pattern, it is the biggest appeal for fruit fans. As for the bottom of the back, I don’t think this up-and-down symmetrical design contains too many functional considerations. According to Apple’s design ideas, it should be symmetrical for the sake of symmetry and get a better sensory experience in visual effects. I wonder if such netizens can accept it?

    In addition to the design of the back of the fuselage, the design of the fuselage frame has also undergone great changes. First of all, the most intuitive thing is that the frame has changed from a plane to an arc. In my opinion, the metal material of the integrated fuselage is very critical, which also determines the modeling design of the frame. Of course, on the other hand, it should be a solution to take care of the feel of the whole machine after the screen size increases. After all, the arc should be more consistent with the curve of the palm, and the performance of the grip will be better.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
The /6 Plus frame has a curved design.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
Because of the curved glass, the front looks floating.(Left is right)

    Viewed from the side, the 2.5D curved glass mentioned earlier can also be seen more intuitively, and we can see that the front panel is indeed "floating" on the frame of the fuselage. As for the design of the surrounding buttons, there is no small change. Because of the increase in size, the power button has been moved from the top to the right side of the fuselage, so that the top of the fuselage becomes bare without any buttons and jacks.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
The top of the fuselage is bare (top is Plus)

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
The function of the bottom of the fuselage is relatively dense.(the top is Plus)

    The bottom of the fuselage is still a relatively dense area, from left to right, there are 3.5 mm headphone jack, microphone, Lightning data cable jack and speaker. In fact, there is not much difference between the functional arrangement of the bottom of the fuselage and the previous models. The change is that the microphone that looks like a speaker in the past is changed to a single-hole design, which may be due to the thickness of the fuselage. The thickness of the fuselage has been reduced to 6.9 mm, while the thickness of the Plus is only 7.1 mm, which is much less than that of the iPhone5/5s.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
The change of the volume key is obvious (the top is Plus)

    On the left side of the fuselage are the classic mute button and volume button. The function of mute button is believed to be very familiar to netizens, and the switch-type design looks simple and clear, both practical and functional. The volume button at the bottom adopts the long strip design on the iPad, which is also because the thickness of the body has been reduced to 6.9/7.1 mm. If you continue to use the round button, the size of the whole button will be reduced, and there will be a certain loss in the feel (reference power button), but in terms of visual effect, I personally prefer the round button, giving people a more exquisite feeling.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
Move to the power button on the right side of the fuselage.(the top is Plus)

    As I mentioned just now, because of the increase of screen size, the power button on the top of the fuselage is placed on the right side of the fuselage, which is very necessary in practical use. For a fuselage of this size, the thumb will be easier to operate than the index finger. Below the power button is the SIM card holder, which still uses the smallest Nano-SIM card at present.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
Hand-held /6 Plus size comparison (left is right is Plus)

    In fact, from the perspective of the whole body circumference and weight, its grip is still very good, and the radian treatment of the frame is indeed a plus item in the feel, which should also be an important part of Apple’s optimization of the big screen experience, and it is particularly important because the frame with radian design also ensures the thinner feel of the body. In terms of body color, Apple still offers gray, white and gold. In a word, the appearance has really changed a lot. As for whether it is acceptable or not, I believe it is still a topic that varies from person to person. But just like the iPhone5, after it is officially put on sale, no matter how ugly it is before, it still grabs the rhythm of "buying in buy buy".

    Compared with the small size in recent years, the design changes of the two new machines can almost be said to be a reinvention. Then Zhou Hongyi once said that "no one can beat the trend". It seems that even today’s Apple has failed to do so, and finally made a compromise to the trend of "generally adopting larger screens".

■ Give you the big screen you want.

    If you only use one sentence, then "the screen size has increased" will be the best answer to the question "What has changed in the new machine". We can blame all the design changes of the two new machines on the changes of these two screens. The cambered surface of the fuselage frame, the adjustment of the position of the power key and the design of the lens have all changed.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
Both and use curved screens.

    Unfortunately, neither machine uses sapphire as the outer screen material, even the more expensive Plus with a larger screen size. However, there is still a curved surface design at the edge of the screen. Although this "water drop screen" has been worn out by Nokia Lumia series products, it is better than nothing. 

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
Screen size comparison of four iPhone products on sale

    Among the two new products, the screen size of is, the physical resolution is 1334*750, and that of pixels per inch is 326 (consistent with). The screen size of the larger Plus is, and the physical resolution is 1920*1080, which is improved to 401 in pixels per inch.

■ How does Apple adjust the larger panel?

    Then the screen size is also increased. The previous iPhone 5 (,1136*640) was lengthened on the basis of (3., 960*640). The final result is a row of icons on the screen, and the screen ratio has changed from 3: 2 to 16: 9, which is now used by mainstream mobile phones.

    The screen ratio of the two new machines is still 16: 9, so the previous method is no longer applicable. So how to adapt to a larger display panel, Apple gives users two choices. The first method is to do simple enlargement directly, and the size of all UI elements is increased by about 15%.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation  Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
The left picture is an enlarged view.                               The right picture shows the standard view.

    The second method is that Apple provides users with a standard layout that can "put seven rows of icons", and adjusts the gaps between elements on the basis of keeping the size of the original UI elements unchanged, so as to adapt them to the new size panel. As for whether the icon will become blurred after the resolution is improved, the reporter’s answer in front is that he can’t detect it.

■ Join the landscape mode to grab the iPad job?

    Since this version, there has also been a horizontal display mode, but this mode is exclusive to the 5.5-inch Plus. For Plus with a large size, the horizontal display mode brings a column layout similar to the iPad version of iOS to the application, and the processing efficiency will also be improved.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation

 Plus added landscape mode.

■ How does Apple deal with one-handed operation?

    The screen size has increased, and the iPhone, once famous for its small size, has to face the problem of how to handle one-handed operation. The iOS 8 system integrates a one-handed operation mode called "Convenient Access". When the user touches the Home button twice, the whole screen can be moved down to the range of thumb. A hammer T1 is also used in a similar way. 

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
By touching the Home button twice, the iPhone can enter convenient access mode (picture from Apple).

■ Apple’s official screen quality parameters

    In terms of screen quality, the reference value of screen brightness given by Apple and Plus is 500nit, but in fact, after testing, the highest screen brightness of iPhone 5s has been able to reach 550nit. Then, after the dialogue between Lao Luo and Wang Ziru, we are more willing to believe that this is Apple’s conservative statement.

     Thanks to the use of semi-reflective and semi-transparent backlight panel, iPhone series phones have always had good screen readability in outdoor sunlight. This time, the two new machines have improved the design of the built-in polarizer (originally), so that those users who usually like to go out with sunglasses can also have a better screen reading experience.

    The two new machines are equipped with the latest iOS 8 system at the factory. Compared with the new products with a little mystery before the conference, the new version of the system that has been released at the developer conference is not so noticeable. However, with the release of new products, we also have some new understanding of the iOS system.

■ A more efficient programming language

    Then Apple introduced a new programming language "Swift" at the developer conference in June, with simpler code structure and higher execution efficiency. This seems to be a good solution to the negative impact of thinner fuselage and higher resolution, which is the heat dissipation problem we are worried about.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
The new system will adopt Swift programming language with higher execution efficiency.(Image from Apple)

    Therefore, even if the newly-launched Apple A8 processing chip does not upgrade too many hardware specifications, Apple still brings users an improvement in experience through system optimization. Let’s take a look at the subtle differences and changes between the official version of the system at the press conference and the previous Beta system.

    Many system screenshots before the conference show that the icon of the official version of iOS 8 system "Passbook" has a "horizontal bar", which is indeed the case in the real X iOS 8 system. In addition, there is an option of "7 lines" icon on two large-size iPhone.

■Apple Pay payment function

    In addition to the horizontal screen mode, zoom mode and convenient operation functions we have mentioned in the previous screen part. "Apple Pay" is a new function that has not been announced in the WWDC release, because its implementation needs the help of NFC sensors on new machines, and Apple will naturally not announce this news in advance.

Using Apple Pay requires binding a credit card or debit card in Passbook.(Image from The Verge)

    With the function of Apple Pay, "Passbook" has become more practical. By binding the bank card, the users with can verify their identity information through the fingerprint identification function of Touch ID, and the transaction process both online and offline is greatly reduced.

The reporter in front experienced the Apple Pay fingerprint payment function at the press conference.

    IOS 8 system with the update of Mac OSX 10.10 makes more interaction between Mac and OS devices. Through the "Hand Off" function, users can continue their unfinished work (editing documents and writing right buttons) on Apple devices such as iPad or Macbook.

Give you the big screen Apple iPhone6&6 Plus evaluation.
After updating the system, Apple strengthened the interaction between iOS devices and Mac devices (picture from Apple).

    In addition, through this function, we can also make phone calls and send ordinary short messages on Mac devices, which reduces our dependence on device entities. Even if I’m worried that it’s not convenient to use the computer’s external phone, at least it can remind me of the incoming call in silent mode.

1.iCloud Drive

    Three years ago, Apple launched the iCloud service for synchronizing information between multiple designs at the launch of mobile phones. In the iOS 8 system, Apple has opened ——iCloud Drive, a cloud storage service for any file, but the storage capacity provided free of charge is still limited to 5GB.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation

2. Family sharing

    In order to solve the problem of family members sharing purchased applications, music and video resources, the iOS 8 system has also added a function called "family sharing". Through this function, the content purchased between multiple accounts can be shared. In this way, the cost of consuming content between friends is greatly reduced.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
Family members can share apps, music and videos purchased by other members through the family sharing function (pictures from Apple).

    The appearance of family sharing function solves the problem of synchronization between FaceTime and iMessage when using an ID. And for many friends in China who have accounts in the Central District and the United States, there is no need to switch when downloading applications purchased in the United States (for example, operating on a computer).

3.Health Kit

    For many bracelets and health peripheral products on the market, Apple provides a unified data interface-HealthKit in the iOS 8 system. Through the Health Kit development kit, the data of these peripherals will be integrated into the new health APP added by iOS 8 through internal calls.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation

    In the actual use process, this APP will also set up a "medical emergency card" for users in emergencies (local users in the United States can directly bind to the medical insurance card), and the information registered by users (blood type, medical history, allergic reaction, drug use) will be presented in the "emergency" interface.

Still upgraded for the 8 megapixel camera

■ Camera specifications

    Before and after, Apple’s camera has experienced 8 million pixels for three consecutive generations. Nevertheless, Apple has also upgraded the sensor model, size, pixel size and software and hardware optimization to varying degrees. Of course, ordinary users who don’t know the technical details seem to be more impressed by the fact that 8 million pixels have not changed. This time, and Plus still continued this number-8 million pixels.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
Still an 8 megapixel camera.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
The camera is slightly convex, but it is acceptable.

    The common details with the Plus camera-8 million pixels, single pixel size of 1.5 microns, and aperture f/2.2-are the same as those of the Plus camera, and the changes are that it adopts a brand-new sensor, has a new generation of noise reduction function, doubles its focusing speed based on the ISP (image signal processor supported by A8) designed by Apple, and Plus supports optical image stabilization (not supported).

Video recording

    And Plus support 1080p video recording with 30-60 frames/sec and slow motion with a maximum of 240 frames/sec, and the slow motion video is doubled compared with the maximum of 120 frames/sec of the iPhone5s.


Slow-motion video demonstration

flashlight

    In terms of flash, the iPhone5s adopts the dual-LED True Tone flash for the first time, and the simultaneous action of cold and warm color temperature flash makes the white balance control of the iPhone5s better when the flash is turned on in low light environment. Inherited and developed the characteristics of iPhone5s dual-LED True Tone flash, and changed the way of arranging two LED lights up and down into the appearance of "one round flash", but two cold and warm flashes still exist at the same time. Although it is only a small change, it can be seen that Apple has made a lot of technical efforts.

New front camera

    Apple and Plus adopted a brand-new front camera, and Apple named it the new Facetime HD camera. It adopted a brand-new sensor, and the aperture was raised to f/2.2. Under the same conditions, it could get more light (up to 81%) than before.

And Plus camera hardware reviews.

    Generally speaking, and Plus have not made much improvement in the camera hardware. The number of pixels, the size of a single pixel, the sensor area and the aperture are all the same as those of the iPhone5s. The upgrade points are mainly the sensor model update and faster focusing speed and enhanced noise reduction. Of course, Plus has also added optical anti-shake support. Therefore, from these technical details, the photo with Plus is still slightly upgraded, mainly for the camera speed and low-light camera ability.

    Due to the limited on-site conditions of the conference, I will briefly present some shooting proofs and screenshots of the camera interface for you for the time being, and the following content will continue to bring you more detailed information.

New Generation M8+A8 Chip Combination

    The A7 processor made Apple first enter the 64-bit era in intelligence, and also brought the M7 motion coprocessor. And this combination is continued, bringing a brand-new A8+M8 combination.

    Compared with A7, A8 chip is 13% smaller and 25% faster. It adopts 2 billion (double the 1 billion compared with A7) and 20 nm process (A7 is 28 nm), and the performance of graphics processor is improved by 50%.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluationApple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
New A8+M8 combination

    The performance of A8 chip is 50 times higher than that of the first generation, and that of GPU is 84 times higher than that of the first generation. The chip area has been reduced from 102 square millimeters in A7 to 89 square millimeters.

    Working with A8 is a brand-new M8 motion co-processor, which will not only collect information from gyroscopes, accelerometers and direction sensors, but also collect information from newly added air pressure sensors. Through the new air pressure sensor, not only the distance data can be counted, but also the height and other data information can be counted.

    As we expected, Apple didn’t announce the number of A8 cores and the specific model of GPU at the press conference, so we will keep an eye on it at any time and bring you relevant reports in time. Of course, now we know that it is important to improve its performance again.

Metal technology will bring high-quality image quality to Apple iOS devices.

    Another:In the press conference, Apple once again introduced Metal, a new generation of graphics technology introduced on WWDC. "Metal technology brings host-level image quality to Apple’s iOS devices." This is what Apple said before. In this conference, Apple said that it will work hard to promote Metal applications and games, and bring users a higher-quality application game experience. The first batch of Metal games will arrive before the end of the year. In view of the increased screen size of and Plus, I believe that these higher-quality game experiences will be better.

A total of nine colors and two new protective shells made of materials.

    As in the times, Apple still released leather and silicone protective cases for peace and purpose. Obviously, the Plus protective case is very suitable for both models.

    Among them, the silicone protective shell has six colors of black, blue, orange, green, gray and red, and the leather protective shell has five colors of black, white, brown, blue-black and red, and the two materials have nine colors in total. This can make Plus and its own deep space gray, gold and silver get more color shapes. Of course, due to the characteristics of silicone and leather materials, it can also ensure a good feel and protection for the mobile phone itself.

    128GB capacity version! Yes, you are not mistaken. The newly released and both have 128GB capacity versions, which is consistent with previous rumors, but this does not mean that and Plus have four capacity versions to choose from. 32GB has been "unfortunately" cancelled. At present, these two models have 16GB/64GB/128GB three capacity versions to choose from.

/5s immediately reduces the price.

    Besides capacity, we are most concerned about the price. After all, there are only two kidneys! Whether you can afford it depends on whether the price is acceptable. Judging from the KeyNote at the press conference, the two-year contract prices of the three capacity versions are US$ 199/US$ 299/US$ 399 respectively. According to the pricing strategy in previous years, their retail prices of RMB should be RMB 5288 /6088 /6888 respectively.

    On the other hand, the two-year contract prices of the three capacity versions of Plus are US$ 299/US$ 399/US$ 499 respectively, and the corresponding retail price of RMB may be 6088 yuan /6888 yuan /7688 yuan if there is no accident. Yes, the "highest match" broke through 7,000 yuan in one fell swoop. For you, the local gold version of 128GB Plus is your symbol.

    According to the news released at the press conference, these two models will be booked on September 12 (September 13, Beijing time) and officially shipped on September 19 (September 20, Beijing time). The release date is exactly the same as the previous exposure date. In the area of sale, Chinese mainland did not appear in the list of the first batch of countries and regions for sale, and official website in China of Apple still showed "the date of sale will be updated later", so it seems that scalpers can have a good rest. . .

In addition to the screen size resolution, the two machines also have differences in camera anti-shake.

    Now it’s time for the purchase manual. If you are a phobia patient, take a look! First of all, we are faced with the question of whether to choose Plus or not. This question depends entirely on whether you have a big screen, especially a big screen. There is no difference between them except the screen and the camera, so it will be very simple after you figure out this question.

Still have gold/silver/gray three colors to choose from (picture quoted from Apple official website)

    After choosing Plus or Plus, we have to choose the capacity version. For most consumers, I believe they will not choose the 128GB capacity version, because its practicality and necessity are too low. In the face of 16GB and 64GB versions, there are obviously two groups of people. If you just want a good mobile phone, the capacity of 16GB is enough to meet most of your needs.

    For application control, the 64GB version is undoubtedly more valuable, because in the case of the same price difference, you can only buy 64GB at the price of 32GB in the past, which makes the large-capacity iPhone model related to the cost performance for the first time, so you still need to understand your needs. As for the color, it is always a matter of different opinions. From my personal point of view, deep space gray is undoubtedly the most attractive on the basis of this design.

Apple iPhone6 comprehensive evaluation
The Hong Kong version with a price of 64GB is quite attractive.(The picture is quoted from Apple official website.)

    Of course, at present, the launch area of /6 Plus does not include Chinese mainland, and Apple’s decision is really confusing. Of course, we should also look on the bright side, that is, the Hong Kong version is still the cheapest choice in the world, with three versions equivalent to RMB 4,425/5,059/5,692 respectively, and three versions of Plus equivalent to RMB 5,059/5,692/6,404 respectively. Of course, there is also a problem here. If the sales situation is still like the iPhone5, /6 Plus will probably go to the purchase restriction measures. We will continue to pay attention to these issues later. I hope netizens will pay attention to our news reports.

summary: 

    Sure enough, after the concentrated exposure of the shower, and Plus, except for the naming, it didn’t guess correctly again, and everything else was basically consistent with the exposure. Even if we don’t consider the surprise and Plus, we haven’t brought too many revolutionary changes, and the sound of spitting in design is definitely the best in the iPhone series. However, from a more rational point of view, and Plus are still products worth buying. After all, they really give you what users want, especially relying on the words big-screen iPhone can attract countless fruit fans to buy, and in all aspects, Apple is developing steadily, and once again the word balance has been better interpreted.

The word "big screen", which has never appeared on the iPhone, has finally appeared. The two big screens of iPhone6 and iPhone6 Plus are believed to make many users flock to it because the iPhone has no big screen. As for whether other hardware has been greatly upgraded, it may not affect the choice of ordinary users.

Daxing Airport always distributes publicity, and China Southern Airlines accounts for 40%.

More can brush WeChat or Weibo "Travel Circle", join the Travel Circle Club (WeChat Group) to participate in discussion and interaction, and add WeChat hanglvquan.

The Civil Aviation Administration recently released a preliminary flight schedule allocation plan for Daxing Airport, and solicited opinions from airlines.

This is the first time that the Civil Aviation Administration has adjusted the time allocation after the Beijing-Shanghai route of China Eastern Airlines decided to stay at the Capital Airport and Air China decided to partially enter Daxing Airport. [Related: Seeing the adjustment plan of Daxing Airport, the airlines exploded the pot again]

What are the adjustments between the new plan and the previously announced plan? How will the reward time and foreign flight time be distributed? The travel circle has sorted out the new scheme.

For the time of each airline company (group) at Daxing Airport, the airline circle has made an intuitive chart according to the new scheme.

It can be seen that in the winter and spring season of 2019/20, China Eastern Airlines spent the most time at Daxing Airport, mainly because China United Airlines will transfer from Nanyuan Airport to Daxing Airport at one time, involving 131 moments.

Starting from the summer and autumn season in 2020, the number of moments of China Southern Airlines Group will exceed that of China Eastern Airlines. This is mainly due to the fact that in the summer and autumn season of 2020, the transition ratio of China Southern Airlines reached 60%, and Xiamen Airlines and Chongqing Airlines completed 100% transitions and won 66 reward moments. The following picture shows the initial planned transition route of China Southern Airlines, and there is no Beijing-Guangzhou line for the time being:

Because China Eastern Airlines left the Beijing-Shanghai line at the Capital Airport, although the transition ratio reached 60%, it did not enjoy any time reward. Previously, the Civil Aviation Administration said that it "adjusted its transition incentive policy".

China Eastern Airlines plans to transfer 24 flights a day to Daxing Airport in the winter season of 2019, including at least 2.4 international flights a day. The flights to be transferred in the first season include Shanghai Pudong-Daxing, Shanghai Hongqiao-Luoyang-Daxing, Xining-Daxing, Daxing-Linyi, Daxing-Lianyungang, Daxing-Huai ‘an, Daxing-Harbin, Daxing-Dongying and Daxing-Luoyang-Luzhou.

Since the winter and spring season of 2019/20, AVIC has maintained the growth of 22 moments/season for four consecutive seasons, and added 17 moments in the winter and spring season of 2021/22, totaling 105 moments. The following picture shows some domestic routes that Air China plans to add at Daxing Airport in winter and spring of 2019:

In terms of foreign airlines, in addition to British Airways, which previously announced that it would completely switch, Delta, Aeroflot, Malaysia Airlines, Siberian Airlines and other companies also plan to completely switch. In addition, Finnair and Polish Airlines also plan to open more routes to Daxing Airport.

As for the remaining moments, there are only three moments in the summer and autumn season of 20 and 11 moments in the winter and spring season of 20/21, which may make some airlines who intend to make a transition wait until after 2021.

The travel circle has also sorted out the proportion of the time obtained by each airline company (group) to the total time.

It can be seen that at the end of the transition period, China Southern Airlines will have nearly 40% of Daxing Airport, China Eastern Airlines and AVIC will account for about 30% and 10%, foreign airlines will account for nearly 10%, and the rest will be other domestic airlines, yes, only 4%.

Small circle without responsibility comments:

China Southern Airlines won 112 awards, accounting for 40% of the total. Should it be smiling from ear to ear?

The Beijing-Shanghai route of China Eastern Airlines is reserved for 46 hours, and the reward time of Daxing Airport is 0. Is there any pain?

With the help of China Eastern Airlines, Air China turned to zero with empty gloves, and it changed 105 moments in Daxing, and it didn’t suffer.

Foreign airlines made 22 transitions, adding 80. After years of hard work, it can be described as "getting rich overnight".

For other airlines, just take it (4%) first, and there will be …

As of the winter and spring season of 2021/22, there are 72 moments to be allocated. Who will spend it?

The travel circle is also dismantled according to each season, combing the transition and entry of each airline company in each season.

2019/20 Winter and Spring

China Southern Airlines transits 10% of flights, with a total of 25 moments; Hebei Hangxin entered the Beijing market and won 30 awards/new moments.

China Eastern Airlines transits 10% of flights, with a total of 22 moments; China United Airlines made a 100% transition, with a total of 131 moments, and no reward/new moments were obtained.

Air China won 22 awards/new moments at Daxing Airport.

 Capital Airlines made a 100% transition, with a total of 22 moments, and received 8 additional rewards/new moments.

 Auspicious 100% transition, a total of 4 moments, and get 1 bonus/new moment.

 British Airways and Malaysia Airlines made 100% transitions, and got 2 transition moments and 1 bonus/new moment in Daxing respectively.

 There are 16 bonus/bonus moments for other foreign airlines.

Summer and autumn of 2020

The proportion of China Southern Airlines’ transition reached 60%, and 51 awards/new moments were awarded, with a total of 198 moments. Xiamen Airlines made a 100% transition and won 14 rewards/new moments, with a total of 53 moments. Chongqing Airlines made a 100% transition and got 1 reward/new moment, with a total of 4 moments. There are 30 moments in Hebei Airlines.

China Eastern Airlines (excluding Beijing and Shanghai) has a transition ratio of 60%, with a total of 111 moments. China United Airlines has 134 moments.

Air China won 22 awards/new moments, and the number of moments doubled.

Capital Airlines is the same as the previous season. The number of historical moments in the summer and autumn season is 2, which is one less than that in the previous season, and the total number of moments is also reduced by one to three.

Delta, Siberian Airlines and Aeroflot made 100% transitions and won 1, 2 and 2 bonus/new moments in Daxing respectively.

Other foreign airlines have a total of 16 bonus/new moments, with a total of 32 moments.

2020/21 Winter and Spring

The proportion of transitions between China Southern Airlines and China Eastern Airlines reached 80%, with 262 and 142 times respectively. Air China won 22 awards/new moments, and the number of moments reached 66. Other foreign airlines won a total of 16 awards/new moments, with a total of 48 moments.

Summer and autumn of 2021

China Southern Airlines and China Eastern Airlines made 100% transitions, with 316 and 185 transitions respectively. Air China won 22 awards/new moments, and the number of moments reached 88. Other foreign airlines won a total of 16 awards/new moments, with a total of 64 moments.

2021/22 Winter and Spring

100% transition of Shanghai Airlines, a total of 10 moments. Air China won 17 awards/new moments, and the number of moments reached 105. Other foreign airlines won a total of 16 awards/new moments, with a total of 80 moments.

Compared with the first transition plan announced by the Civil Aviation Administration at the beginning of the year, except for China Eastern Airlines, China Southern Airlines, Xiamen Airlines, Chongqing Airlines, Hebei Airlines and Capital Airlines all got the reward moments (in red) on the basis of the original plan, while China Eastern Airlines kept the Beijing-Shanghai line at the Capital Airport, so the number of transition moments was reduced compared with the original plan, and no reward moments were obtained.

What do you think about the adjustment of the time distribution at Daxing Airport? Who do you think is the biggest winner?

City Hall and Place | Eight Houses, A Disappearing Village in the City

No one may remember the "Eight Families" in the future. But it was once the most backward, messy, congested and noisy village in Beijing. Six years ago, eight families were full of vitality, but now they have been demolished.

After graduating from college, I lived in this village in the city near my school for a year. At that time, my roommate still lived in this area. She said that there are fewer and fewer food markets here, and there is no place to buy cheap food.

This place that has disappeared now is memorable.

Where are Bajia?

Wudaokou is famous as the "center of the universe". From Wudaokou subway station, go north along Shuangqing Road, and you can reach Bajia in 10 minutes by bike. Bajia is about 3 kilometers away from Tsinghua University, and the land in the village was mainly expropriated by Tsinghua University, and university dormitories were built one after another.

After 2003, Beijing’s housing prices began to rise rapidly. As the land price became higher and higher, the relocation expenses of Bajia became higher and higher, and the speed of land expropriation slowed down, gradually forming a village in the city. In 2010, the village was gradually demolished. The author returned to Beijing in 2013, and the whole village in the city has completely disappeared.

Eight were once called the most backward, messy, congested and noisy villages in Beijing. In 2010, there were more than 2,400 villagers in eight households, mainly living by renting houses. Around 1992, eight flea markets were formed, and there were three large markets. Around 1995, there was a migrant population who collected junk. Later, some second-hand goods markets were shut down one after another, but the migrant population concentrated areas have been formed.

Urban villages facing extinction

Between the floating population and the development of modern cities, the village in the city has built a bridge and is a tolerant post. There are not only cheap houses here, but also cheap lifestyles. It is also a buffer zone to alleviate social contradictions and make the floating population better adapt to the life in big cities. However, with the expansion of the city, the original suburbs have become urban areas, and even become centers (such as Wudaokou, the center of the universe), and the surrounding land prices are getting higher and higher, and the villages in the city are about to become extinct.

As a cultural and political center, Beijing is different from Shenzhen, where many villages in the city have become artists’ settlements. Yuanmingyuan painter village, Shucun village and Beijing East Village are all not far from Bajia. However, Bajia Village is not contaminated with romantic artistic atmosphere, but it shows us another severe challenge: garbage.

A gathering place for garbage collection

Bajia village is famous for garbage recycling. The eight families are divided into the first eight villages and the last eight villages, one in the south and the other in the north. The scavengers in the first eight villages mainly collect domestic garbage, while the latter eight villages mainly engage in the recycling and dismantling of waste electronic products.

Bajia, near Zhongguancun, was known as "Beijing electronic waste transfer station", which was the largest gathering area of electronic waste in Beijing at that time. Someone said, "As many new computers as Zhongguancun can sell, we can collect as many old computers here."

These scavengers have made great contributions to garbage recycling. Six years ago, from the window of my room, I could see a big garbage dump surrounded by high-rise buildings in various residential areas. The people inside worked from morning till night every day, and built a series of "carton mountain", "plastic bottle mountain" and "wooden board mountain", which made it a surreal huge stage.

On weekdays, they rode tricycles to collect the recyclable resources abandoned by the imperial city. However, due to the lack of management, it also caused some environmental problems. The streets and yards of Bajia are full of garbage dumps. Some people think that this has affected the image of the city. It has also been suggested to "collect" scavengers and form urban garbage recycling cooperatives.

Evolution of streets

There are different types of streets in Bajia and its vicinity, from which we can see the evolution process:

Heqing Road leads to Wudaokou. Although there are lush plants and comfortable sidewalks on the roadside, vendors will never sell things here. Because there are few pedestrians and vehicles here, the bicycle lane becomes a parking lot, which is very deserted and unsafe to walk at night.

Because Linda North Road is close to Shuangqing Road, there are residential buildings on the roadside, and the sidewalks are occupied by vendors. They just shade under the street trees, but it is lively only in the afternoon.

Xueyuan Road is a typical road in Beijing, with bus lanes and bicycle lanes, bus stops on the roadside, overpasses when crossing the road, and pedestrians are in a hurry. There are occasional vendors at stations and road intersections, but be careful of sudden attacks by urban management.

Shuangqing Road is a special case. Shuangqing Road is the main road of Bajia, which is an old road and a very interesting road. Urban space is often a manifestation of social reality, and this road is a stage to show the vitality and changes of the city.

A road separating social classes.

Because IT is close to Tsinghua University and other universities, as well as Tsinghua Science Park, Zhongguancun and Wudaokou, there are also college students, professors, IT white-collar workers and migrant workers from all walks of life. In 2009, in a three-room house I rented at that time, there lived four newly graduated college students and a graduate student who just started working.

The difference in income has evolved into the difference in urban space in eight cities, and Shuangqing Road may be called a dividing line of social strata. It separates two kinds of people. One is "drifting to the north" who live in a residential area in the east. They have knowledge and technology, and they can get a job with considerable income and work hard to take root in this city.

The other is the migrant workers living in the bungalow area in the west, including most scavengers, and most of them are migrant farmers. They are engaged in manual work in this city, not only to support themselves, but also to send their savings back to their hometown. Although living in a big city, many migrant workers don’t have much chance to get to know the city. Some rented houses in Bajia don’t even need sunshine. Because of the life style of migrant workers, the architectural form has also changed, and sunshine has become a luxury unrelated to architecture.

A street that cars hate.

Shuangqing Road is the most dynamic street I have ever seen in Beijing. To the east of Shuangqing Road is a high-rise building that has been planned by the city, including a residential area, a hotel and a research unit, and to the west is a bungalow area. When the author first arrived at Bajia, the sidewalk of Shuangqing Road was full of all kinds of old furniture. This 100-meter-long sidewalk became a display window for vendors, and all kinds of old clothes, waste paper, plastic bottles and other recycled wastes were displayed on the street with surreal volume.

In the afternoon, the garbage collectors returned and the road became chaotic and dangerous. There are tricycles, bicycles, electric cars, carriages, trucks, cars, and pedestrians walking through the cracks. The southern end of Shuangqing Road is a train crossing, which is also the intersection of four intersections, so traffic jams often occur (anyone familiar with Wudaokou knows that this intersection is a nightmare for all vehicles). Ordinary taxi drivers are reluctant to come to eight.

A favorite market street for floating population

The small shops along Shuangqing Road create a vibrant social field. The narrow grocery store covers almost all the necessities of the floating population. Small restaurants with different regional tastes meet the tastes of different outsiders, as well as hair salons, car repair shops and hardware stores. When I lived here, almost all the daily necessities came from those grocery stores, because their prices were usually half or even less than those of supermarkets.

Most floating population do not live here for a long time, so there is no need to buy good quality products. This short-term consumption habit has promoted the prosperity of small shops.

The grocery store is usually the place where the owner works and lives. Outside is the store, and inside is the place where the stock is stored and the food is eaten and slept. In this way, you don’t have to rent another room, and you can stay open until late at night. This "compact urban space" has been mentioned by many urban researchers, and it is a mixed-function lifestyle with the characteristics of urban villages. But behind the prosperity, there is also fierce competition, and new shops can always be seen here. Moreover, with the demolition, the small restaurant that may have just eaten yesterday was demolished this morning.

A stage street full of vendors’ vitality

Every afternoon, vegetable and fruit stalls occupy half the road. Small vegetable sellers go home after selling vegetables. They usually use a three-wheeled flatbed car to transport goods, and a piece of cloth on the ground is the shop. Most of these vegetables are left over from other markets in Beijing, because vendors live here and dispose of the remaining vegetables in the afternoon, so the price is very cheap, often a pile of one yuan.

Fruit sellers usually drive trucks. Every afternoon, they use trucks to occupy a booth, which is a kind of fixed vendor. They will stay late into the night, because people who come back from work can’t take the bus to their door, and they have to walk through this street. When they see cheap and fresh fruits on the roadside, they will bring some home.

Because there is no street lamp, vendors set up a small street lamp to illuminate their fruits, and also illuminate the way forward for tricycles full of recycled garbage and passers-by looking forward to a warm dream. Walking on this street at night, you will see these neatly arranged trucks. Crossing the street is like crossing a fruit runway show.

Eight night markets are also famous. The night market is mainly at the intersection of Shuangqing Road and Linda North Road, which is the only way to enter Bajia. There is also a night market near Wudaokou Metro Station, which mainly sells clothes and small things. There are many vagrants and beggars, and most of them are fashionable young people and foreigners. It is a place for recreation and entertainment. The night markets of Bajia are mainly snacks such as food stalls, mala Tang, barbecues, etc. The residents of Bajia mainly go shopping. It seems that people here are more concerned about filling their stomachs.

Destroyed street

Jane Jacobs wrote in Death and Life of American Big Cities: "The deep roots of roads contain people’s public identity, a network of mutual respect and trust in public life, and resource support for the needs of individuals and neighbors." The streets of Bajia are chaotic, but unlike the neighboring streets, they become "ghost streets" at night, and the vitality here makes people feel safe. No matter how late you walk in the street, you can always see some tricycles pulling goods, some vendors, and pedestrians rushing home. They will all become the caregivers of this street.

Modern cities are slowly destroying the former streets with large-scale carriageways. When a street is transformed into a convenient motor vehicle traffic lane, people’s desire for this street is reduced, and the purpose of their behavior is clear. Hurry through these streets and reach another place. A street is just a path to a building, a path manipulated by traffic rules.

Once the street is regarded as a path, then whether the street is unobstructed and whether the people and traffic are dense becomes the main problem to be considered, that is, the main problem of traffic planning. Then, the streets will provide more space for cars, and people will have greater demand for cars, forming a vicious circle. Just like a straight river built for flood control, the river will slowly lose its water storage capacity and dry up, eventually becoming a drain.

Mathias Woo, a cultural critic in Hong Kong, once criticized the disappearance of streets and vendors in Hong Kong, leaving only air-conditioned shopping malls and residential quarters, and the diversified urban landscape and citizen life in Hong Kong disappeared.

Perhaps in the eyes of Jane Jacob and Mathias Woo, Shuangqing Road is a rare "street", but it is hard to escape the fate of being destroyed. Shuangqing Road is very narrow, and buses can only go one way. Vendors occupy about a quarter of the street. People who get off work push bicycles, their eyes are picking vegetables, fruits and various commodities on the stalls, and their ears are mixed with all kinds of hawking.

The street here is no longer a gateway to a building, but a vibrant market. Whether driving, riding a bicycle, pushing a tricycle or walking, all people are equal, and vendors will make you happy with their humor.

People like to buy things while walking, and buy cheap and fresh goods. Therefore, vendors are willing to stay here and come to grab a good position every day. Although they are mobile, they are fixed on this street. They will say to customers, don’t worry, I am here every day. Such a promise has built an invisible space and a unique shop for them.

What is transformation?

In 2010, I witnessed the foundation stone laying ceremony of eight relocated houses. Some villagers will move to the relocated houses in the north of Bajia Village, and some villagers will move back to further places.

When taking photos at a demolition site, I met an old couple who lived in the village. The old couple had a Labrador, saying that the dog suddenly came to the yard one day and lived with them ever since. They also have a roof garden, planted some vegetables and stood on the roof overlooking the whole village. Now, I don’t know which suburban resettlement community the old couple live in, and whether they will miss the eight families.

Jane Jacobs said that there is a magical order behind some seemingly chaotic places, which is maintaining the safety of streets and the freedom of cities. There is also something worse than public ugliness and chaos, that is, wearing a hypocritical mask and pretending to be orderly. Its essence is to turn a blind eye to and even suppress the real order that is struggling and demanding attention. It is precisely because of the lack of research on what is chaos and what is order that people often can only judge people by their appearances. Urban civilization is not tolerant enough to encourage the formation of all kinds of diversity, but is eager to dress up beautifully.

The eight families in memory disappeared. The eight families witnessed a special experience of a young man. Those eight houses are hiding all kinds of rubbish discarded by huge cities. The eight families that once existed witnessed the close relationship between the floating population and modern consumer cities and various vested interests. Here, I only miss eight families with this article.

BYD Qin L is the first to take the fifth-generation hybrid system, with a fuel consumption as low as 2.9 liters and a comprehensive cruising range of 2,000 kilometers.

79,800 Qin PLUS glory edition, is it a kill for fuel vehicles? This is just an appetizer,The real one is BYD, which will completely end the joint venture fuel vehicle.

Judging from the current news, BYD is about to launch a new generation of plug-in hybrid technology, that is, the fifth generation of DM hybrid system, and Qin L is the first model of this system.

The new generation of plug-in has two advantages. The first is that the energy consumption has been greatly improved. The minimum fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is 2.9 liters, and the battery life is more than 2,000 kilometers.

Qin PLUS is enough for a class a fuel truck to drink a pot, while Qin l just drives the fuel truck to the dead.

It is estimated that the first thing is that it is impossible to compare with Qin L. Moreover, under the impact of domestic new energy sources, the myth of preserving the value of Japanese cars has also been shattered. Once the classic 60,000 to 70,000 can be bought, the new car has dropped by tens of thousands compared with a few years ago, and there is no preservation rate in the second-hand market.

Finally, in terms of durability, BYD is the king of the new energy market, selling more than 6 million new cars, and its quality and reputation have been recognized by the market.

Running a car with Qin PLUS is the best proof. A car of average quality can’t do a car on the Internet at all. Therefore, all the conditions are ripe, and Qin L is the ultimate skill for joint venture fuel vehicles.

However, the matter is not over here. Judging from BYD’s patent application, the fifth-generation DM system has a second advantage, which can make the size smaller and lower, so that the body size can be made smaller.

Qin PLUS is equipped with the fourth-generation plug-in hybrid system, which is BYD’s smallest plug-in hybrid model at present, and the fifth-generation DM system with smaller structure may be equipped on and.

If you really launch a 50,000-60,000 hybrid version, or even a 40,000-50,000 hybrid version of the seagull, there is really no way for a fuel truck within 100,000!

Of course, some people don’t understand. Compared with pure fuel vehicles, plug-in hybrid vehicles have more batteries, motors and electronic controls. Why can they save more fuel?

In fact, in addition to the blessing of the three-electric system, the engine of the plug-in hybrid model is also very important. The hybrid car uses a special engine, which is higher and can make full use of gasoline to convert into power.

The principle here is a little complicated. We can compare a car to a person, and compare the stomach to an engine. The stomach digests food and then it is absorbed by the intestine, and finally it is converted into the energy needed by the human body.

There are two key points here. The first is that the stomach can’t digest food completely, and some nutrients are discharged. The second is that the energy absorbed by the intestine is surplus, and the excess is converted into fat and stored.

In the traditional working mode of oil truck, the engine will waste a lot of work, and will not convert excess energy into fat, so the utilization rate of gasoline heat energy is extremely low.

The thermal efficiency of most engines is about 40%, while BYD’s special plug-in engine can reach 43%, which is the fundamental reason for BYD’s fuel-saving plug-in system.

How exactly is it done? That is to add and subtract the power system. Byd’s plug-in hybrid system saves the gearbox, and the engine is always in the optimal speed range, so that the gasoline can be fully burned to release heat energy, which can be used to generate electricity to drive the motor, and the excess electricity can be stored in the battery.

If it is in a continuous high-speed state, the energy consumption of the motor will increase, and the engine can also intervene in direct drive to achieve a relatively fuel-efficient state.

Byd’s hybrid structure is relatively simple. If we want to make progress in fuel consumption, it means that the thermal efficiency of the special engine has probably set a new record!

The difference between "reservation" and "reservation" is tricky, and many details of New Year’s Eve dinner need to be paid attention to.

  "Pre-emptive reservation for reunion dinner" and "Hot reservation for New Year’s Eve" … … The "New Year’s Eve" launched by major hotels is extremely popular, and a table for New Year’s Eve in some hotels is hard to find. Many citizens also moved the New Year’s Eve dinner from their homes to hotels.

  At the same time, the rules and regulations of some hotels make consumers feel quite inconvenient.

  The fixed menu, limited meal time, and extra people and fees make consumers very nervous, and the difference between "booking" and "booking" New Year’s Eve is even more puzzling to consumers … …

  Ordering is too restrictive, and there is still a time limit for eating.

  Near the Spring Festival, many hotels have started the New Year’s Eve dinner mode ahead of schedule, and put up slogans such as "reunion dinner", "New Year’s Eve dinner" and "Spring Festival is not closed". Posters with delicious dishes are very attractive. Going out to the hotel for New Year’s Eve dinner is also sought after by many citizens.

  "There is only one table for the New Year’s Eve dinner now, and the rest are booked out." In a hotel near Qingnian Road, two staff members are receiving four or five consumers, who are all consulting about the New Year’s Eve dinner. The staff handed over three menus with three packages at different price points. Each set meal includes cold dishes, hot dishes and staple foods. "The dishes prepared in the package are all dishes that customers usually order and give good feedback. The dishes of the New Year’s Eve can only be ordered according to the dishes in the package."

  According to the investigation of 10 hotels, the reporter found that all the New Year’s Eve dinners provided by hotels are set meals, and it is impossible to order food at will according to personal preferences. Seven companies have limited the meal time, stipulating that the meal time for the New Year’s Eve is two hours, which is the premise of booking.

  The staff of a hotel near Panjiayuan said that the reservation for New Year’s Eve dinner is very popular, and taking two hours as the dining interval can meet the needs of more consumers to go out for New Year’s Eve dinner. The set meal is introduced in the hotel because of the large amount of orders for New Year’s Eve dinner, and the ingredients need to be prepared in advance. Some dishes with similar prices can also be exchanged individually according to the needs of guests.

  "The favorite dishes are not in a set meal yet, so it is necessary to take into account the tastes of the elderly and children. It is very nerve-racking when choosing a set meal." A consumer said that in order to choose a package that is more suitable for his family, he has not made a decision after comparing with many hotels he frequents. "When a family comes out to have a happy New Year’s Eve dinner, it always feels less comfortable because of the limitations of time and dishes."

  The package has a "head fee" disguised as a low consumption.

  The way to set up the New Year’s Eve dinner package is used by hotels, and the package price is fixed, but the number of people to eat is not clearly specified. The staff of a hotel near Changying area in Chaoyang District said that a big table can seat 10 people, as long as they can sit down and have enough food to squeeze more people.

  However, the reporter found in the survey that some hotels have also made clear the number of diners in the package. In a hotel near Wangfujing, there are 6, 8 and 10 people in various New Year’s Eve dinner packages, and children over 1.2 meters are included in the number of people eating. A hotel near the East Third Ring Road has also stipulated the number of diners for the New Year’s Eve dinner package, and each additional diner needs to increase the cost near 500 yuan.

  "Chinese New Year is a big family, even the old and the young. After the number is set, you can’t book a table because you have more than two or three people. There are several children among them, all of whom are counted. Such rules and regulations are hard to understand. " A consumer said that the purpose of the New Year’s Eve dinner is to reunite, be lively and enjoy the happy atmosphere of the whole family sitting together, and the conditions set by the merchants during the meal have discounted the significance of the New Year’s Eve dinner.

  On November 1, 2014, the Measures for the Management of Catering Industry (Trial) jointly issued by the Ministry of Commerce and the National Development and Reform Commission clearly stipulated that catering operators are prohibited from setting minimum consumption. Violators can be fined up to 30,000 yuan.

  "This is the performance of merchants setting minimum consumption in disguise. When consumers choose New Year’s Eve, they can communicate and negotiate with merchants according to relevant regulations." Liu Yang, a lawyer of Beijing Jingxi Law Firm, said that although the restaurant didn’t specify the minimum consumption per capita, it set the set meal amount and stipulated the number of diners. When the number of diners increased, it was necessary to pay the meal fee, which was suspected of setting the minimum consumption.

  remind

  "reservation" or "reservation"

  It’s best to sign the contract first.

  In the investigation, the reporter found that there are two expressions of "reservation" and "reservation" in the propaganda language played in the hotel.

  Liu Yang said that when going out to choose a New Year’s Eve hotel, we should pay attention to some merchants’ "word games" to avoid losing money. "Reservation" refers to the need to pay part of the deposit, which can be used as liquidated damages when the payer breaches the contract. After the hotel breaches the contract, it should pay double deposit as liquidated damages. The deposit in the "reservation" is not guaranteed, and it can be refunded when the schedule changes. "When choosing a New Year’s Eve hotel, consumers should sign a contract with the hotel, stipulating the dining price, time, whether they can bring their own drinks, and ‘ Deposit ’ Or ‘ Deposit ’ And other issues to avoid unpleasantness before or during meals, so that their own interests are not guaranteed. "

See how the ancient Chinese epidemic prevention.

  The wise ancients knew and dealt with the plague.

  Yin and Shang dynasties We have been able to see the early records of the epidemic and the measures taken to avoid it. Perfect sewers have also been excavated in Yin Ruins, indicating that the city has public health facilities, which is conducive to reducing the occurrence of epidemics.

The picture shows the word "service" (epidemic) in Oracle Bone Inscriptions, which shows that Chinese has known the knowledge about epidemic for a long time. (information photo)

  Zhou royal family Ceremonies to expel the plague were held regularly, and officials responsible for handling the epidemic were also set up. The Classic of Mountains and Seas contains seven kinds of drugs for treating plague, such as smoked grass.

  After Qin and Han dynasties Traditional Chinese medicine tends to be mature, and Huangdi Neijing has a complete idea of disease prevention and treatment. It is suggested that people should strengthen prevention before the onset, or treat it as early as possible in the early stage of the onset and prevent recurrence after treatment.

   Other TCM classics, such as Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Shennong Herbal Classic, provide dialectical prescriptions and drug knowledge for preventing and treating diseases.

  Progressive ideas and means of prevention and control

  Sui dynasty People realize that infectious diseases are caused by "surly qi" and have their own special causes.

  Ming dynasty Wu Youke pointedly pointed out that "Qi is the thing, and the thing is the gas", and the cause may be some invisible substance, which is very close to the hypothesis of microbial etiology.

   In terms of prevention, Hua Tuo proposed to use Tu Su wine, Ge Hong proposed to use Laojun Shenming powder, and later someone proposed to take Huoxiang Zhengqi powder.Tang and song dynasties Aromatherapy was widely used to prevent diseases, and burning Atractylodes lancea was popular in Ming Dynasty to purify the air.

  Mid-Ming dynasty Vaccination against smallpox appeared among the people. Later, some foreign envoys came to study and brought this technology back to Europe. On this basis, the British medical scientist Jenner invented vaccinia vaccination, which laid the foundation for the final elimination of smallpox, a severe infectious disease in the world.

The picture shows the Han Dynasty mural "Hometown Nuo Map" of Wushi Temple in Jiaxiang, Shandong Province, which reflects the concept of expelling poisonous insects and avoiding epidemics in the Han Dynasty.

   as far back asJin dynasty Institutionalized epidemic prevention measures have been formed. The government stipulates that courtiers who have patients and infected more than three people are not allowed to enter the palace for 100 days, although they are not sick.

  Song dynasty Pay attention to the disposal and cremation of the bodies of the infected dead as soon as possible.

  Qing dynasty There is a "pox shelter" in the court to isolate people infected with smallpox, and it is stipulated that relatives can visit after nine days of isolation.

  A benevolent doctor in the epidemic

   Epidemic prevention and treatment are inseparable from doctors. In ancient China, a group of great doctors stood up in the great epidemic and left valuable spiritual wealth and treatment experience for future generations.

   During the Song Dynasty, there were many epidemics, and the government often sent medical officers to local areas to distribute drug relief. Li Tang’s Map of Village Doctors in Song Dynasty vividly depicts the situation of doctors treating patients. (information photo)

  At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the plague raged. Famous doctor Zhang Zhongjing The clan originally had more than 200 people, and two-thirds of them died in 10 years. In his grief, he wrote Treatise on Exogenous Febrile Diseases, which became a model of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment. He emphasized that doctors should have the spirit of "helping the relatives from the top and saving the poor from the bottom", and carried out the rigorous attitude of "assiduously seeking the ancient teachings and learning from others" in research medicine, which was called by the later Buddha."medical sage".

  Sun Simiao, a famous doctor in Tang Dynasty More than 600 leprosy patients with chronic infectious diseases who were discriminated by society were treated, and doctors were required to "not look ahead and look back, think about good or bad, and protect their lives" when treating patients, which established the medical ethics norms of traditional Chinese medicine, and their medical ethics were deeply admired by later generations."drug king" Known as.

Wu Youke’s Treatise on Epidemic Fever in Ming Dynasty is the first monograph on plague in China. (information photo)

   In 1232, a great epidemic broke out in the capital of song dynasty, killing more than 900 thousand people. At that time, famous doctorsLi Gao The "Puji Disinfection Drink" was created, which was very popular, and people carved the prescription on stone tablets to spread it. His studentsLuo tianyi He also became a famous doctor who was good at saving the epidemic, and treated many officers and men infected with the epidemic in the Yuan Dynasty.

  Many famous prescriptions of traditional Chinese medicine that are still in use today are summarized by famous doctors in actual combat. Such as Wu Youke’s Dayuan Drink, Yinqiao Powder from Ye Tianshi and Wu Jutong, Yu Shiyu’s Qingwen Baidu Drink, Yang Lishan’s Shengjiang Powder and Wang Qingren’s Jiedu Huoxue Decoction.

   In the face of various plagues, groups of benevolent doctors in ancient China did not shrink back, did not avoid difficulties and dangers, and repeatedly studied the treatment in practice, and gained very valuable experience, which saved countless lives and made great contributions to the epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic in ancient society.

Road test and sailing: a new trend of automatic driving of automobile enterprises from the auto show

  [News] With the gradual opening of road test, can autonomous driving be far behind? Not long ago, the country issued the specifications of road test related to intelligent driving, and Shanghai, Fujian, Chongqing, Shenzhen, Changchun, Changsha and other places have also issued relevant road test rules one after another, but only Beijing, Shanghai and Chongqing issued the number plate for road test. Among them, Shanghai was the earliest. On March 1 this year, Shanghai issued a road test number plate to SAIC. Chongqing has the most. On April 18th, Chongqing issued license plates to seven companies: Baidu, Guangzhou Automobile, Geely and Beiqi. Beijing’s latest, during the auto show, Beijing just announced that Weilai won the number plate (Beijing had previously issued a number plate to Baidu). Taking advantage of the east wind, let’s take a look at the progress of these car companies that have obtained number plates in the field of intelligent driving.

Among them, the intelligent cockpit system with multiple application scenarios will be fully equipped on the models listed in 2018-2020.

  The road to autonomous driving BAIC New Energy will also rely on the strength of BAIC Group. According to the plan, BAIC Group’s vehicles will be Baidu’s open platform, and L3 self-driving vehicles will be mass-produced around 2019, and L4 self-driving vehicles will be mass-produced around 2021. The driverless plan of BAIC New Energy may also be promoted according to this.

Weilai: the only car company that got the number plates of two places.

  Consistent with the new energy qualification review, the choice of intelligent driving license plate is also more inclined to traditional car companies at present. Among the eight car companies that have obtained road test license plates in various provinces and cities, only Weilai Automobile is a new car company, and it is also the only passenger car company that has obtained license plates in Beijing and Shanghai.

  At this auto show, Weilai booth was particularly popular. Apart from the car itself, the on-board artificial intelligence system "NOMI" is also eye-catching. Based on the powerful on-board computing capability and cloud computing platform, it integrates a voice interaction system and an intelligent emotion engine, which can talk with people, automatically adjust the temperature inside the car, automatically purify the air inside the car, and help car owners take selfies.

  As an emerging car company, Weilai has been committed to intelligent driving research and development. In the ES8, the first model of Weilai released at the end of 2017, the automatic assisted driving system NIO was equipped. In the scheme of perception system, there is a three-eye camera, four panoramic cameras, five millimeter-wave radars, 12 ultrasonic sensors and a driving state detection camera. It can achieve more than 20 core capabilities such as adaptive cruise, high-speed automatic assisted driving, congestion automatic driving, automatic road maintenance, parking assistance, automatic parking, active vehicle call and fatigue warning.

  Weilai mainly cooperates with leye, NVIDIA and NXP in the field of intelligent driving. At present, a large number of automatic driving function tests have been completed, including simulation tests and closed road tests. At the same time, Weilai launched the open road test plan in California, Beijing, China and Shanghai. According to the plan, Weilai will release vehicles with L4-level automatic driving capability in 2020.

Saic: zebra intelligent system welcomes version 3.0.

  As a car company that proposed "Internet car" earlier, on the eve of this auto show, the Marvel X, a brand-new pure electric vehicle of SAIC, officially made its debut. It is reported that the car is equipped with AR augmented reality technology, version 3.0 Internet car zebra intelligent system, all-round intelligent welcome system, as well as wireless charging, automatic parking and parking functions.

Home of the car

  SAIC has a long history in the field of intelligent driving. When it was launched in 2015, it already had intelligent driving assistance function. When the speed is 60-120 kilometers per hour, it can realize automatic cruising, automatic car following, lane keeping, lane changing and autonomous overtaking. In the field of new energy, both Roewe ERX5 and Roewe ERX 5 are equipped with zebra Zhixing system, which can realize the above intelligent driving assistance function. Not long before the auto show, SAIC announced that the upgrade of Zebra Zhixing System 2.0 on Roewe ERX5 will be started, and users can enjoy the OTA upgrade service for free. At that time, users will receive download prompts and updates, including maps, voice and HMI. All interfaces will be updated.

  In the field of intelligence, SAIC mainly cooperates with Ali. As early as July 2014, the two sides signed a strategic cooperation agreement and formally established Zebra Zhixing Company, which is committed to providing the overall solution of Internet vehicles for the entire automobile industry. At present, it has been applied to a number of SAIC models. At the same time, SAIC also obtained California’s autopilot test license in 2017 to conduct autopilot road test work in the United States.

Chang ‘an: L2 technology will be launched.

  Since the "Shangri-La" plan was released last year, Changan Automobile has made frequent moves in the fields of electrification and intelligence. At this auto show, Changan presented a new generation of CS75, which is equipped with Changan APA4.0 parking service system, which can realize the functions of active parking search, one-button parking inside the car, remote parking outside the car, etc. In addition, Foreign Minister Anxin CS75 is also equipped with Bosch’s new generation AEB early warning auxiliary braking, LCDA intelligence, LDW lane departure warning and many other intelligent driving assistance functions.

Home of the car

  At the same time, the CS55-IACC version of Changan Automobile will be launched soon, which is equipped with IACC integrated adaptive cruise technology and has reached the L2 level of automatic driving. IACC adopts multi-sensor integration technology, integrates millimeter-wave radar, multi-function camera and navigation map, perceives the driving road environment, and controls the automatic acceleration, deceleration and steering of the vehicle through power, braking and steering, so as to keep the vehicle in the lane or follow the track of the target vehicle in front.

  The driverless test of Changan Automobile started two years ago. As early as 2016, Changan driverless car arrived in Beijing safely from Chongqing in five days and completed the 2000km driverless test; In November 2017, Changan Automobile obtained the California road test driverless car test license.

  In the field of autonomous driving, Changan Automobile currently mainly adopts the form of cooperation with other enterprises, and has signed contracts with many enterprises such as Weilai, Baidu, Intel, Alibaba and Tencent. But at the same time, Changan is also doing independent research and development, which will be gradually applied when the technology is mature.

FAW: At present, no action has been implemented in the field of automatic driving.

  Among many license plate car companies, the specific implementation of FAW’s automatic driving in the passenger car field is the most mysterious. At the auto show, FAW exhibited FAW, and the official pointed out that its main theme is "Yan value+intelligence" and it will be listed in 2018. But so far, no further details about the field of intelligent driving have been released, except that the car is equipped with 4G network and has HMI platform.

Home of the car

  As early as April 2015, FAW Group released a complete intelligent interconnection strategy-"Zhitu". According to the plan, by 2020, FAW will gradually carry L3-class automatic driving on a series of products in terms of intelligence; In terms of informatization, combined with the comprehensive application of 5G, a perfect V2X system is established to improve driving safety and traffic efficiency. By 2025, FAW will realize the serialization of L4 self-driving products in terms of intelligence; In terms of informationization, based on the big data of the Internet of Things, we will integrate social travel resources and establish a high-quality mobile travel service ecosystem.

  In the field of intelligent driving, FAW chose Tencent as its small partner. In April this year, Tencent and FAW formally signed a strategic cooperation framework agreement, and the two sides will build intelligent networked products based on Tencent Car’s "AI in Car" intelligent solution.

Dongfeng: Launching Link3.0 System

  During the Beijing Auto Show, the eπ concept car, a new energy concept, was launched on the Dongfeng booth. It can obtain the optimal path planning, provide remote medical treatment, interact with family members in real time, assist users to pay attention to hot spots along the way in real time, and provide real-time travel with real-time interconnection positioning and automatic greeting technology between cars and people.

Home of the car

  In addition to the vehicle model display, it also brought the WindLink3.0 artificial intelligence vehicle system display, which was jointly built by dongfeng fengshen, Baidu and Botai, and realized the functions of one-button navigation, one-button positioning, peripheral search, interest point search, off-line navigation and so on through voice interaction. In addition, it can remotely control the doors, windows, air conditioners and so on through the mobile App, and monitor the vehicle condition in real time. This system will be carried on passenger cars in dongfeng fengshen which will be launched this year, and will cover all product series in the next three years.

  Dongfeng’s layout in the field of intelligent driving has been started since 2013, and it has been technically equipped on mass-produced vehicles in dongfeng fengshen. It has successively launched A60 intelligent prototype in 2013, AX7 intelligent prototype 1.0 in 2014 and AX7 intelligent driving prototype 2.0 in 2017, and completed the engineering and industrialization of new technologies such as automatic parking and intelligent assisted driving. In the field of driverless driving, Dongfeng plans to mass-produce driverless cars by 2020, but it will be used in special fields and commercial fields first.

Guangzhou Automobile Co., Ltd.: In 2019, L4-class autopilot demonstration operation will be realized.

  Guangzhou Automobile mainly focuses on new energy in the field of intelligent driving. At this auto show, the first new energy concept car developed for the North American market was released. Although Guangzhou Automobile did not describe this model in the field of automatic driving, its window did not choose traditional glass material, but it can be integrated with the door when it is closed, which means that the window is opaque and the car can’t be seen outside, so it is judged that the main control mode designed for the Enverge concept car is automatic driving.

Home of the car

  GAC mainly cooperates with Huawei, Tencent, Ali, Cisco China and Didi Chuxing in the field of autonomous driving, and will cooperate in the fields of cloud computing, car networking, intelligent driving, new energy vehicles, big data applications and travel services. According to GAC’s new energy plan, the future is not only to launch new energy vehicles, but more importantly, smart cars. The company plans to realize the demonstration operation of L4-level highly automatic driving in 2019, and gradually upgrade to L5-level fully automatic driving.

Geely: mainly relying on its own strength for research and development.

  At the Beijing Auto Show in 2018, Geely brought GKUI in-vehicle system, which is a deeply customized in-vehicle system based on Android system, and supports many functions such as car networking, car-machine interconnection, navigation, multimedia, third-party App, etc. The system has been used in Geely’s various models.

Home of the car

  The use of the above functions is still in the state of car networking. Geely has not yet equipped with intelligent driving including related auxiliary functions, but it has technical reserves. At present, the models on sale have relied on ACC adaptive cruise system and completed the initial prototype of automatic driving. Starting this year, Geely’s models will be equipped with car networking technology, and intelligent driving assistance functions such as automatic parking will be carried one after another.

  Different from other experts, Geely’s autonomous driving field, like the Internet of Vehicles, mainly relies on its own strength for software and hardware development. It is reported that there are currently 600 teams for hardware development and 400 teams for software development. According to Geely’s plan, it is predicted that L3 system with high automatic driving ability will be realized in 2020, and L4 system with fully intelligent automatic driving will be realized in 2024.

Full text summary:

  Undoubtedly, intelligent driving must be the future direction. According to the feedback from car companies, more and more vehicles equipped with intelligent driving assistance functions will be launched in the next year or two, mostly with L2 level. At the user level, the biggest experience lies in voice recognition, automatic parking, etc. Most cars with L3/L4 level tend to appear around 2025, while the higher L5 level is still far away from the legal level and car company planning for the time being. But in the long run, multi-screen, driverless, and canceling the steering wheel are the future trends. In addition, from the perspective of cost, according to car companies, with the improvement of automatic driving level in the short term, the cost is still rising, but after reaching an order of magnitude, the cost will decline.

Rare! Collective changes in Hong Kong stocks and A shares

  Real estate stocks have suddenly become the object of capital pursuit!

  On May 10th, real estate stocks in the A-share and Hong Kong stock markets changed collectively. Shimao Group, a domestic housing stock in Hong Kong stocks, once rose over 90% in intraday trading, and South China City once rose over 70%. The A-share real estate sector rose by nearly 4%, with nearly 10 daily limit shares such as () and (), and Vanke A once rose by nearly 5%. Some analysts pointed out that the stock price of real estate stocks usually reacts faster than the recovery of fundamentals, so the bottom of real estate stocks has been basically clear.

  On the same day, financial stocks such as insurance and banks also changed at the same time as real estate stocks. On the same day, the banking and insurance sectors in Hong Kong rose by 4%. The high dividend sectors of Hong Kong stocks such as energy and electricity also strengthened collectively. In addition, a number of Hong Kong stock dividend-related ETFs rose more than 5%. Among them, the Hong Kong stock exchange dividend ETF, the Hong Kong stock exchange non-bank ETF, the Hong Kong stock exchange financial ETF, the Hong Kong stock exchange dividend index ETF and the Hong Kong stock exchange central enterprise dividend ETF all hit new highs in intraday trading. In this regard, China, a brokerage firm, took the lead in reporting this morning: "Hong Kong, the sudden spread of great benefits! 》

  So, why is the high dividend sector so strong?

  Real estate stocks soared.

  Today, real estate stocks are highly sought after. Shimao Group, a Hong Kong stock, once rose more than 90% in the afternoon, hitting a maximum of HK$ 1.16, and accumulated nearly 160% in two days. South China City once rose more than 70% in intraday trading, and Zhengrong Real Estate, China Aoyuan, Fantasia Holdings and Kaisa Group followed suit. At the close, Shimao Group rose 60%, South China City rose nearly 45%, China Aoyuan and Fantasia Holdings rose over 20%, and Kaisa Group rose 14.55%.

  In the A-share market, the real estate sector also rose sharply. At the close, the overall increase of the sector was close to 4%, and nearly 10 shares of China Merchants Shekou, (), () and Binjiang Group rose by more than 5%, and Vanke A rose by more than 3.56%.

  Some analysts pointed out that the strength of real estate stocks is related to the news that Hangzhou, the core city of the Yangtze River Delta, and Xi ‘an, the core city of the northwest, both announced the cancellation of housing purchase restrictions. The market expects that the regulation policies of first-tier cities will be optimized to the main urban areas, and the pattern of comprehensive cancellation of purchase restrictions in second-tier cities will accelerate. The recent intensive implementation of policies has helped to repair market expectations, and promoted the activity of market transactions, helping sales to gradually stabilize.

  On May 9, Hangzhou issued the Notice on Optimizing and Adjusting the Regulation Policy of the Real Estate Market, and Xi ‘an issued the Notice on Further Promoting the Stable and Healthy Development of the Real Estate Market. On the same day, two high-energy cities further optimized and adjusted their real estate policies, including a series of measures such as completely canceling the housing purchase restriction. Prior to this, Chengdu also issued a document on April 28th to optimize the real estate policy.

  Huatai Securities pointed out that Chengdu, Hangzhou and Xi ‘an are all cities with good chemical conversion rate since the fourth quarter of 2023, and the optimization of real estate policies in these cities is expected to inject confidence into the market. At present, real estate sales have not completely stabilized and rebounded, and the Politburo meeting has continued due to the city’s policy. It is expected that more first-tier cities and strong second-tier cities will introduce more industry support policies, which is expected to promote market confidence and fundamental repair and provide valuation repair space for the real estate sector.

  At present, the market is highly concerned about the fundamental trend after the introduction of the policy, and CITIC Securities believes that by mid-2024, housing prices in the core areas of core cities are expected to stabilize. In addition, () said that a number of core cities have recently introduced policies to relax the purchase restriction, including Beijing’s optimization of the housing purchase restriction policy after 13 years and the addition of a set of housing purchase indicators outside the Fifth Ring Road; Cancel the purchase restriction in Chengdu and Changsha; Tianjin released the purchase restriction of new houses of 120 square meters or more in the six districts of the city; Shenzhen single non-local household registration and two-child household registration families can purchase one suite in some areas. It is expected that under the new policy tone, the pattern of real estate regulation and control policies in first-tier cities will be optimized to the main city and the purchase restriction will be completely cancelled in second-tier cities.

  After the adjustment of Politburo meeting of the Chinese Communist Party, a new round of policies has arrived, the policies of core first-and second-tier cities have been continuously optimized, and more supportive policies can be expected. We believe that the current industry fundamentals are already in the bottom range, and the subsequent decline space is limited, and the valuation of the real estate sector is at a historically low level. The response of real estate stocks is usually faster than the recovery of fundamentals, so the bottom of real estate stocks has been basically clear.

  Du Haomin and Fang Peng, analysts of Guojin Securities, also believe that after Politburo meeting of the Chinese Communist Party’s adjustment, a new round of policies has arrived, the policies of core first-and second-tier cities have been continuously optimized, and more supportive policies can be expected. At present, the fundamentals of the industry are already in the bottom range, and the space for subsequent decline is limited, and the valuation of the real estate sector is at a historically low level. The response of real estate stocks is usually faster than the recovery of fundamentals, so the bottom of real estate stocks has been basically clear. First push the key layout, deepen the first-tier and core second-tier cities, focus on improving products, and have the ability to continuously acquire land.

  The rise of financial stocks

  Financial stocks are also one of the highlights today.

  In the Hong Kong stock market, as of the close, Hong Kong banks and insurance sectors rose by more than 4%, () by more than 8%, China Construction Bank by nearly 7%, () by more than 6%, China Ping An by 5.77%, Agricultural Bank by more than 5%, () by China CITIC Bank and Bank of Communications by nearly 5%. At the same time, the high dividend sectors of Hong Kong stocks such as energy and electricity also rose sharply, with the energy sector rising by more than 4%, () rising by more than 6% and China Petrochemical Co., Ltd. rising by more than 5%.

  Some analysts pointed out that the rise of high dividend assets in Hong Kong stocks such as finance, energy and electricity was mainly influenced by a rumor last night-it was reported that "the dividend tax on Hong Kong stocks may be reduced." However, as of the press release of China reporter, the above news has not been officially confirmed.

  () The report released this morning pointed out that if the bonus tax relief for Hong Kong stocks is implemented, it is expected to further boost mainland investors’ investment enthusiasm for Hong Kong stocks, especially those related to high dividends, boost sentiment in the short term and help improve the liquidity of the Hong Kong stock market in the long run.

  CICC pointed out that in August last year, a liquidity task force was set up in Hong Kong to pay attention to the follow-up measures to improve liquidity. Looking ahead, if the dividend tax adjustment is implemented, it will become another important measure to potentially improve the liquidity of Hong Kong stocks after the reduction of stamp duty in Hong Kong stocks at the end of last year and the introduction of five measures for cooperation with Hong Kong by the Securities and Futures Commission last month. Next, we will not rule out further measures, which may include reducing transaction costs (reducing transaction commissions) in the short term; Lower the investment threshold and broaden the investment scope in the medium term (appropriately relax the entry threshold of Hong Kong Stock Connect and continuously optimize the listing system); Long-term activation of product innovation (optimization of Hong Kong Growth Enterprise Market mechanism, establishment of professional boards for professional investors, etc.).

  Huatai Securities said that the dividend tax not only directly affects the AH premium of listed companies in the two places, but also indirectly affects the investable value of constituent stocks in the scope of Hong Kong Stock Connect to the south. Taking May 8, 2024 as the time parameter, and the stocks within the scope of Hong Kong Stock Connect with a market value of more than HK$ 10 billion and a static dividend yield of more than 5% as the range pool, the sub-sectors with a southbound shareholding ratio of more than 14.9% and a static dividend yield of more than 7% are screened under the holistic method, and the conclusions are as follows: energy, materials, capital goods, automobiles and auto parts and banks. It can be concerned that the investment value of high dividend varieties in related industries may be improved.

Not bad money! Cost of luxury SUV Mercedes GL550 car

 

    Mercedes-Benz GL Class is the first full-size suv launched by Mercedes-Benz, and it is also the largest SUV of Mercedes-Benz so far. The domineering shape, exaggerated size, huge displacement and luxurious interior clearly show that it is a model for the American market. However, high-end SUVs also have considerable appeal in China. The launch of this model is a strong challenge for Land Rover Range Rover, Hummer and Lincoln Navigator, and only this "Big Mac" can truly deserve the title of "Big Ben".

    Let’s take the Mercedes-Benz GL550 as an example, and take a look at its annual car cost.

    

    

    The use cost we calculate includes fuel cost, insurance, vehicle and vessel use tax, vehicle inspection fee, maintenance fee, parking fee, beauty decoration fee, traffic fine, etc. Among the above expenses, vehicle and vessel use tax and vehicle inspection fee are fixed, but the difference lies in fuel cost, auto insurance (the types of insurance selected vary from person to person, and the rates of different insurance companies are also different) and maintenance cost. If the owner has been in the 4S shop for regular maintenance, the maintenance fee is basically fixed, and it also includes beauty decoration fee and other unforeseen expenses (such as parking fee, accidental maintenance fee and traffic fine). We can take the following calculation formula:

    Car expense = fuel expense+vehicle use tax+auto insurance+maintenance expense+parking fee+unexpected expenses.

    1. Fuel cost:According to Mercedes-Benz GL550, the official fuel consumption is 15.2L/100km. Of course, because the fuel consumption is closely related to the driving environment and the driver’s operating habits, your fuel consumption in actual use may be different from this. At present, the revised price in Beijing is 6.92 yuan/liter for No.93 gasoline and 7.30 yuan/liter for No.97 gasoline. The fuel label of Mercedes-Benz GL550 is No.97. According to the calculation of driving 20,000 kilometers a year, the fuel cost can be obtained as follows:

    Average annual mileage ÷100× 100 km fuel consumption× fuel price =20000÷100×15.2×7.30=22,192 yuan

    2. Vehicle and vessel use tax:The quota of provinces and cities in China is not consistent, taking 480 yuan/year as an example.

    3. Auto insurance:In terms of auto insurance, the price fluctuates greatly due to different insurance items and companies. Take China Ping An Insurance as an example, the eight risks of new cars, including compulsory insurance, third-party liability insurance, vehicle loss insurance, vehicle theft insurance, glass breakage insurance, spontaneous combustion loss insurance, vehicle personnel liability insurance, excluding deductible loss insurance, and the premium of vehicles is 44,040.85 yuan.

    4. Maintenance fee:In terms of maintenance, according to the sales staff in the store, the warranty period of Mercedes-Benz GL-class vehicles is two years and unlimited kilometers, and the daily maintenance cycle is 10,000 kilometers. The price of materials and working hours for minor maintenance (oil filter replacement, etc.) is about 2,000 yuan, and the general cost for major maintenance is about 3,000 yuan. The maintenance cost of Mercedes GL class is still very expensive. According to the calculation of driving 20,000 kilometers per year, the average annual maintenance cost is about 7,000 yuan.

    

    Note: There will be corresponding discounts on insurance fees. Car owners need to "shop around" when taking out insurance, and choose insurance companies with favorable prices and adequate services.

    Description:Because the standard of working hours varies from place to place, and the price of spare parts will be different, the maintenance fee will be different in different regions.

    5. Parking fee:The parking fee is calculated according to the monthly 100 yuan, which is 1,200 yuan in December. This expense is not small!

    6. Unexpected expenses:This part is usually unpredictable, such as fines paid for violating traffic regulations, highway tolls, claims not covered by insurance and other unpredictable expenses. This part varies from person to person, so let’s call it 500 yuan for the time being.

    Comprehensive above expensesThe annual car cost of Mercedes-Benz GL550 is:

    Fuel cost+auto insurance+vehicle and vessel use tax+maintenance cost+parking fee+unexpected expenses = 22192+480+44040.85+7000+1200+500 =75412.85Yuan.

    Then, the monthly car cost of Mercedes-Benz GL500 is: 22113÷12=6284.40 yuan
