    On the evening of October 31, the closing ceremony of the Shanghai World Expo was grandly held in the World Expo Performing Arts Center. At the closing ceremony of this Shanghai World Expo, Huang Yi, Jackie Chan, Liu Xiang and Tan Jing, the ambassadors of the "World Expo Volunteer Gesture", stood on the stage of the closing ceremony of the World Expo together with many disabled people. Huang Yi joined them in heart and sang a song to congratulate the successful conclusion of the World Expo. In an interview, Huang Yi said: "We should treat disabled people as our friends rather than objects of help, communicate with them with our hearts, and start bit by bit in life.

    Huang Yi participated in the closing ceremony of the World Expo as the only mainland actress invited, and her pure appearance was as kind and pleasant as the girl next door. She appeared with Jackie Chan, Liu Xiang, Yang Lan, Li Ning, Tan Jing, Jin Jing, Lin Zhiling and other stars to pay tribute to the Expo volunteers. In Tan Jing’s singing, she interacted with the children from Shanghai Blind Children’s School cordially, and took a group photo on the stage. Huang Yi also specially sent Haibao candy cans to blind children. Huang Yi felt very honored to be able to participate in the World Expo performance, especially the section he performed. "It is a very warm program. The success of the World Expo cannot be separated from so many selfless volunteers. These children may not be able to see it, but they can hear and feel the love and encouragement everyone sends to them. "Backstage, Huang Yi especially went to the lounge of these blind children to visit them. When he heard" Little Swallow "Huang Yi coming, the children cheered and hugged Huang Yi one after another. Huang Yi also suddenly became motherly and hugged them one by one.

    As an ambassador for the World Expo gestures, Huang Yi, like Jackie Chan and Tan Jing, has personally experienced the work of "cabbage", distributing World Expo flyers on Century Avenue, giving directions to passers-by and answering questions. She said with great emotion: "To be honest, this is a bit boring work, doing the same thing repeatedly every day, and explaining it to others very patiently every time. This is a job that is particularly worthy of our respect, and these volunteers are taking their own time off to do this work, working hard every day to stay at their jobs. They may not have the opportunity to see such a wonderful World Expo. I think their spirit is particularly great." The "Yidong Fund" initiated by Huang Yi has always adhered to the charitable concept of "accumulating small love and making great love". From the details of life, Huang Yi himself has always been enthusiastic about public welfare undertakings. He has appeared in various public welfare occasions, doing his own thing and giving his love to people in need.

MPE smart bed joins hands with Xiaodu whole house intelligence to create a sleep micro-scene solution

On October 17, the Baidu World Conference 2023 was successfully held in Beijing. At the Whole House Intelligent Big Model Application Forum, MPE Smart Bed & Xiaodu Whole House Intelligent officially reached a strategic cooperation.

Xiaodu whole house intelligence is built by Baidu’s artificial intelligence brand "Xiaodu", with advanced AI and smart home technology, based on DuerOS, integrated into ERNIE Bot, with leading voice technology and large model capabilities, and is one of the leaders in the field of whole house intelligence.

What is a smart bedroom?

In the field of "whole house intelligence", there is no room with the highest demand for intelligence than the bedroom. Just because it is impossible for people to operate the central control when they are asleep, the bedroom needs "wisdom" more than other places in the home.

The core of a smart bedroom lies in whether it can perceive the environment, determine which plan to run in the current scene, compare, analyze, and make decisions about external information, and actively adjust the micro-scene plan based on human needs.

The MPE smart bed, the creator of sleep micro-scene integration, joined hands with Xiaodu Whole House Intelligence to give the answer.

Sleep micro-scene integration creator

As the pioneer of smart beds, MPE has been building a "smart bedroom ecosystem based on one bed", which fits well with Xiaodu’s whole house intelligence. After MPE’s self-developed AI voice technology is connected to DuerOS, it can control the whole house through voice. Through voice technology and large model capabilities, it can achieve word-for-word accurate recognition, control the core appeal, and give solutions; it can also automatically adjust the preset mode in various micro-scenes by sensing the environment:

It was getting late, and when you were ready to go to bed and enter the bedroom, the bedroom curtains had been drawn, and the air conditioner had already made the room "neither hot nor dry";

?Relax and read a book before going to bed, gently shout "leisure mode", and adjust it to a suitable angle;

When you start to get sleepy, you can shout "deep sleep mode" softly, MPE will adjust the smart bed to level, and all electrical appliances will enter sleep mode;

After a while, you will enter a deep sleep and start to snore. The head of the MPE smart bed is raised to an appropriate angle to reduce the duration of snoring and ensure sleep quality;

When getting out of bed at night, the bedside light is lit, and the soft light is enough to see objects and ensure safety.

At the wake-up time you set, open the blackout curtains little by little, raise the head of the bed, and play music. After a good night’s sleep, you wake up gracefully and naturally.

Know what you need, everywhere

With the improvement of large model capabilities, the future home will be smarter, and the bed, as the most important component of the bedroom, has an irreplaceable role in the smart bedroom scene. MPE always believes that from "smart" to "smart", the most useful way is to let the smart bedroom understand what you need, adapt to the situation independently, and provide a high-quality sleeping environment.

In the future, MPE smart beds and Xiaodu whole-house smartphones will continue to create a warm, personalized, and intelligent life for users, transforming the bedroom into the future and creating an extremely comfortable smart sleep experience.

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

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

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

The rider is resting in the inn

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

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

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

Google and Apple shut down map traffic data ahead of a potential Israeli attack

Google Maps shuts down real-time traffic in Israel

Ifeng.com technology news, Beijing time on October 24th, informed sources said that at the request of the Israeli military, Google’s map and navigation app Waze will shut down real-time traffic conditions in Israel and the Gaza Strip.At present, Israel is considering launching a ground invasion of the Gaza Strip.

A Google spokesperson responded in a statement: "In response to the evolving situation in the region, as we have done in previous conflict situations, we have temporarily disabled real-time traffic and busyness information as a matter of community safety."Google said that while Google Maps and Waze will not display real-time traffic conditions, drivers using the navigation system will continue to receive estimated arrival times based on real-time traffic conditions.

But Google removed real-time congestion data for Israel and Gaza at the request of the Israel Defense Forces because real-time traffic information could reveal the movements of Israeli forces, according to people familiar with the matter. Google took a similar action in Ukraine last year after the conflict broke out between Russia and Ukraine, disabling real-time vehicle and pedestrian traffic data.

According to Israeli technology website GeekTime, Apple’s Maps app has also complied with the Israeli military’s request.No longer displaying real-time traffic conditions in Israel.

Israel has called up more than 300,000 reservists after a surprise attack by Hamas earlier this month. The Israeli military has hinted at a ground invasion of Gaza, a move that has been criticised by world leaders for the potential civilian casualties. US President Joe Biden said he asked about "alternatives" to a ground war during a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last week.

As of press time,An Apple spokesperson has not yet commented, nor has the Israel Defense Forces.(Author/Xiao Yu)

Donnie Yen Hong Jinbao gathered! "Dragon and Tiger Martial Artist" won the highest score in the same period


1905 movie network news China’s first film documentary depicting the 60-year trend of kung fu movies, showing Chinese filmmakers fighting with their lives against Hollywood in an all-round way, creating a golden age of kung fu movies with one punch and one kick. Since it officially landed in major theaters across the country on August 28, it has received praise and recognition from many netizens. At the same time, it has also won a high score of 8.3 points on Douban, becoming the highest score on Douban in the same period.


"Worth watching" "The action is too fierce, it hurts to watch" "The editing is very comfortable" "The soundtrack is very good, I want to know the name of the song at the end"… This film, which gathers the strongest kung fu lineup of Chinese movies, shows the optimistic and unyielding spirit of Dragon Tiger Martial Artist, and can still move and inspire young audiences to this day. Recently, the film launched the theme song MV "Live Like The Last", which sang the life of Dragon Tiger Martial Artist with a relaxed style, and once again touched countless netizens.


Heroes are not allowed to see bald heads! The theme song sings the mental journey of the dragon and tiger martial artist


The theme song "Live Like The Last" was written by Ling Kong (UK) and Chen Shuai, composed and produced by well-known music producer Cui Bo, and sung by sportsman singer Xu Jun. When mentioning the inspiration for the song, Cui Bo, music director of Perfect Youth OST, said that after watching the movie and communicating with the director, he thought he should try to tell a slightly sad past with a cheerful melody to show the fearless optimism of Dragon Tiger martial artist.


The director once revealed in an interview that during the filming of this film documentary, he hoped to make some filming records of the lives of the Dragon and Tiger martial artists today, but they were all rejected. Later, he learned the answer from other industry seniors: Dragon and Tiger martial artists worked hard for the movie when they were young, but now they are old, full of injuries, and their lives are not as good as before, so they don’t want to let others see their painful side, "Dragon and Tiger martial artists believe in a saying: Heroes are not allowed to see white heads."

And the film’s theme song "Live Like The Last" also records this mood: "When I was young, I tried to prove myself and resist the world." "When I grew up, I smoothed the edges and avoided the world’s conflicts." "They say this is life, a fighter when young, a coward when old. Tears and laughter, bitterness and sweetness, enjoy the moment, only this life." The group of Dragon and Tiger martial artists once had a glorious journey of tears and laughter, bitterness and sweetness, which is also in this song in the movie.


The ups and downs are all joking! Dragon Tiger martial artist’s tenacity and unyielding spirit impresses young people


With the theme song of this relaxing melody, the picture of the MV is also wonderful: the camera unfolds from Hong Kong, China under the bright night. From the 1960s to the 1980s, it was the most prosperous era of Hong Kong action movies. A group of people who worked hard for movies and asked for the future without hesitation – Dragon Tiger Martial Artists, also walked into the "battlefield" of life at this time. With the real kung fu of a hard bridge and a hard horse, and the dream of "wanting to make a good movie", they suffered a lot of pain and walked on the edge of adventure countless times. They used countless blood, tears and broken bones to play the glory of Hong Kong movies. Now, looking back on the past, their eyes still shone brightly. In their opinion, they regarded every day as the last day of their lives, cherished every minute and lived every second, and life should be like this.


Everyone who watched the movie was moved by the spirit of the Dragon Tiger Martial Artist, and they left a sincere response on the Internet: "The story is told lightly, and only they understand the sadness and blood and tears behind it." "After watching it, blood and sadness coexist, and tears cannot be stopped." "Someone must always remember these people who created an era." "Thank you to the former Dragon Tiger Martial Artists for bringing us the best martial arts dreams of our youth with their sweat and blood!"


Dading breaks 30,000, delivers super 10,000, asks the new M7 Ultra to lead the new power

As consumers’ acceptance and demand for new energy vehicles continue to rise, brands have increased their R & D and innovation efforts, and actively launched models that integrate more cutting-edge technology, comfortable experience, and excellent quality to meet the diverse needs of the market, thereby further enhancing the brand’s market competitiveness. The new M7 Ultra, which was newly launched at the end of May, has quickly become the focus of the market with five extraordinary upgrades. It is set to exceed 30,000 units in 20 days of listing!

Dading super 30,000, delivery super 10,000, ranking first in sales of new power models in 2024

The official poster shows that the Wenjiexin M7 Ultra has exceeded 30,000 units in just 20 days since its launch, fully demonstrating the enthusiastic pursuit and deep trust of consumers. Not only that, the Wenjiexin M7 Ultra quickly exceeded 10,000 units in just 18 days, setting a delivery record for new power models in the Chinese market. At the same time, the Wenjiexin M7 also became the first new power model to exceed 100,000 units in 2024! This milestone achievement further consolidated its leading position as a "national SUV" and injected strong impetus into the development of the brand.

Driven by the excellent market performance of the new M7 and the hot sales of the new M7 Ultra, the new M7 series models have achieved remarkable results. As of June 16, the cumulative sales of the new M7 series reached 100,900, which not only ranked first in the sales list of new power models in the Chinese market in 2024, but also successfully surpassed the sales of the competing ideal L7 + L8 models, proving its strong market appeal and high recognition by consumers. Why is the new M7 Ultra so popular?

Five extraordinary upgrades, the ultimate smart price ratio, and the continuous leadership of hard core strength

Wenjie’s new M7 Ultra is a collection of "five extraordinary upgrades", bringing consumers an extraordinary experience with a more pleasing appearance, a more luxurious interior, a smarter smart car, and a more comfortable chassis. In terms of appearance, Wenjie’s new M7 Ultra follows the latest family-style front face design. The exquisite small grille makes the front of the car present a more complete profile, giving the whole car a stronger sense of technology. Standard with new 20-inch double seven-spoke star flicker wheels, the appearance is higher. Optional 21-inch double ten-spoke sports wheels, full of aura. The new interstellar blue body color and red tea orange interior color create a flagship homologous high-end texture and technological luxury.

In the interior part, the Hongmeng smart cockpit of the new M7 Ultra has added a star ring scatter, which allows the sound to cover the whole cabin more evenly. The logo star ring wraps the acoustic scattering groove with crystal texture, and cooperates with the dynamic lighting design, which has both sound and color. At the same time, it also makes Xiaoyi more concrete, sound and light linkage, and interaction more ceremonial. The oversized interior space upgrades the new Shuyun seat, which is based on the ergonomic spine line design, with precise fitting, and cooperates with the seat’s electric ventilation, heating, massage and adjustable waist support, providing a comfortable ride like a first-class seat.

The new M7 Ultra comes standard with HUAWEI ADS 2.0 high-order intelligent driving system, upgrades the 192-line lidar, the highest line number of mass-produced vehicles in the industry, and the whole vehicle is equipped with 27 sensing hardware. With high-performance computing platform and Huawei’s self-developed anthropomorphic algorithm, it realizes more comprehensive intelligent security protection and easier intelligent driving experience. As of May 2024, the urban pilot NCA has opened 40,000 + cities and towns, and the total mileage of intelligent driving is 220 million kilometers. The computing power of cloud learning and training has been increased to 3.5E FLOPS. It can not only be driven across the country, adding a comfortable feeling to the journey, but also driving better and better in the continuous evolution, making every trip easier and more comfortable.

Huawei Advanced Intelligent Driving also has the industry’s ceiling-level active safety capability, supporting omnidirectional anti-collision. Among them, the maximum effective range of the forward AEB is 4-150km/h, and the braking speed is increased to 120km/h, so as to achieve "people have my own advantages", and the lateral and backward active safety is "people have none". Statistics show that from September 2023 to May 2024, the new M7 actively avoided more than 80,000 possible collisions, effectively reducing the risk of accidents for users. In addition, Huawei Advanced Intelligent Driving also supports 160 + scenarios of intelligent parking, which can easily deal with crowded parking lots and difficult parking spaces.

In terms of driving comfort, the new M7 Ultra upgrades the CDC continuous variable damping shock absorber, and automatically adjusts the soft and hard suspension for different usage scenarios, bringing a more luxurious driving texture. Relying on Huawei’s hardcore technology, the new M7 Ultra realizes the intelligent coordination of ADS preview and CDC shock absorber automatic adjustment, further optimizing the driving experience. The software and hardware are fully upgraded, and with the joint adjustment of Huawei German Research Institute, the test result of the new M7 Ultra has been improved to 75.5km/h, effectively improving the stability and safety of driving control.

The new M7 Ultra has been upgraded with five extraordinary upgrades, reshaping the new benchmark of the value of the "National SUV". At the same time, the starting price of the 289,800 and the first-sale car purchase rights of the highest 35,000 have brought consumers a value-added experience without increasing the price. It has undoubtedly become the best choice for home smart SUVs.

Continue to lose money! Cyrus’s pre-loss in the first half of the year exceeded 1.25 billion yuan

Continue to lose money! Cyrus's pre-loss in the first half of the year exceeded 1.25 billion yuan

On July 14, Sailis released a pre-loss announcement for the first half of the year. According to the announcement, the official expects that the net profit attributable to the owner of the parent company in the first half of this year will be – 1.39 billion yuan to – 1.25 billion yuan, and the net profit attributable to the owner of the parent company after deducting non-operating gains and losses is expected to be – 1.93 billion yuan to – 1.80 billion yuan.

Regarding the reasons for the pre-loss of this period’s performance, the official pointed out that due to the promotion of the Quarter 1 automobile industry, users’ expectations that the M5 smart driving version will be released in the second quarter have a certain impact on the sales of existing models, so the company’s sales in the first half of the year did not meet expectations. At the same time, it also pointed out that high R & D investment in the core technology field of new energy vehicles has been maintained, and R & D and technical personnel have been continuously introduced, and R & D expenses have increased compared with the same period of the previous year. Regarding the follow-up development, the official said that with the launch of the M5 smart driving version and other new models, as well as the increase in overseas sales, the sales volume and profitability in the second

Continue to lose money! Cyrus's pre-loss in the first half of the year exceeded 1.25 billion yuan

In fact, it is not surprising that Cyrus released the estimated loss in the first half of the year. Since Cyrus cooperated with Huawei, its losses have been increasing. According to the financial report data: Cyrus lost more than 10 billion yuan in the four years from 2019 to 2022, of which the non-net profit in 2019 was – 884 million yuan, in 2020 – 2.308 billion yuan, in 2021 – 2.793 billion yuan, and in 2022 – 4.296 billion yuan.

Continue to lose money! Cyrus's pre-loss in the first half of the year exceeded 1.25 billion yuan

According to the data, the predecessor of Cyrus Group was Chongqing Xiaokang Industrial Group Joint Stock Company, which was established in September 1986. In April 2021, Xiaokang shares reached a cooperative relationship with Huawei. The two sides signed a memorandum of cooperation in the field of new energy vehicles and launched the first cooperative model Cyrus Huawei Smart Choice SF5. The new car was sold online on Huawei’s official website simultaneously, and entered Huawei stores and flagship stores at the same time. The price range is 21.68-24 6,800 yuan. Although both sides have given great resources to support the first model, Huawei Smart Choice SF5 sales are not ideal. In 2021, the annual sales volume of Cyrus SF5 was only 8,169 units.

In order to turn around sales, Xiaokang and Huawei cooperated again to launch the new energy brand AITO Wenjie. In 2022, three models of Wenjie/M5 EV and Wenjie M7 were launched one after another. With the launch of a number of models, the sales volume of Wenjie in 2022 has been rapidly improved, and the cumulative delivery volume for the whole year has reached 75,000. According to the official sales data, the cumulative production and sales volume of new energy vehicles of Cyrus in 2022 reached 139,132 and 135,054 respectively, an increase of 233.64% and 225.9% year-on-year respectively. Among them, the cumulative production and sales volume of Cyrus cars reached 83,701 and 80,041, an increase of 660.37% and 626.39% year-on-year. The world accounted for more than half of the sales volume of Cyrus in 2022.

After entering 2023, although Huawei and Cyrus are emphasizing that the cooperation between the two sides will be further deepened, the sales of the Q & A brand have been cold in the market. Of course, the decline in sales has something to do with Tesla’s announcement of a big price reduction at the beginning of the year. Although Q & A also followed up with the price reduction after Tesla announced the big price reduction. The maximum reduction of its three models was 30,000 yuan, but the price reduction did not stimulate sales growth. Relevant data show that the retail sales of AITO Q & A in the first half of 2023 were 23,246 vehicles.

Continue to lose money! Cyrus's pre-loss in the first half of the year exceeded 1.25 billion yuan

In addition, after Ren Zhengfei signed the "Resolution on Huawei Not Building Cars" in March, it was a blow to Cyrus, which has always endorsed the Huawei brand. Or realized the crisis, on March 30, Cyrus launched its new brand "Blue Electricity" and launched its first model, priced 139,900 yuan – 151,900 yuan. It is understood that the Blue Electricity E5 uses BYD Freddie battery hybrid technology and Huawei’s smart car technology. After the launch, the sales of the Blue Electricity E5 were also unsatisfactory. Relevant data show that the sales of the Blue Electricity E5 were 250, 483 and 376 vehicles in the three months after the launch.

It is not difficult to see that the price war among automakers at the beginning of the year and Huawei’s reaffirmation that it will not build cars have had a certain impact on Sailis Automobile. After all, without Huawei’s halo, Sailis’ true appeal in the market is still very limited. Therefore, for the cooperation with Huawei, Sailis still actively cooperates. Sailis said that at the end of June, the company has established an "AITO Inquiry and Sales Service Joint Working Group" with Huawei to be responsible for the end-to-end closed-loop management of marketing, sales, delivery, service, channels and other businesses. This is also another milestone event for the two sides to promote deepening cooperation. In the future, with a firm new energy strategy, continuous R & D investment and the support of partners, it will continue to drive towards a new fast lane for new energy vehicles.

Reporter investigation: It is difficult to return to taxi hailing in various places. What should be done to reflect on the new policy of online car hailing?

   CCTV News(Reporter, Wang Jiazu, Li Wenliang, Wang Xiaoying, Gao Yuting, Intern, Qi Chenji) "It has always been suggested that there are no cars nearby." This is a common feeling among many citizens who choose to ride online recently. Even during off-peak hours, it is not easy to take a taxi, and "the time to call a car has become longer" is becoming the norm in many cities.

  Data from Didi Chuxing shows that the difficulty of hailing a taxi in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen has increased to varying degrees. In June this year, the difficulty of morning and evening peak taxi hailing in four places increased by 12.4%, 17.7%, 13.2% and 22.5% respectively compared with the same period last year. In Beijing, after the implementation of the new policy of online car-hailing, the passenger order of online car-hailing platforms fell by about 10%.

  A year after the implementation of the new policy on online car-hailing, there are various signs that the previously surprising golden period of online car-hailing development is rapidly coming to an end. In some cities, online car-hailing is difficult to get, and drivers must increase their fares to accept orders. And the behavior of traditional taxis such as refusal and bargaining has not been significantly improved by the legalization of online car-hailing.

  What’s wrong with the online car-hailing market, and how should it be managed? Can returning to "taxi-hailing difficulty" make relevant departments reflect on the new policy?

  Online taxi: "There are no cars available nearby"

  On July 27, 2016, the Ministry of Transport and seven ministries jointly promulgated the Interim Measures for the Administration of Online Booking Taxi Business Services (hereinafter referred to as the "Measures"). China became the first country in the world to recognize the legal status of online car-hailing nationwide. Subsequently, detailed implementation rules have been issued in various parts of China. According to media statistics, 133 cities have announced new policies on online car-hailing.

  Recently, CCTV reporters visited the online car-hailing market in many cities in China and found that the number of online car-hailing has decreased significantly since the implementation of the New Deal for more than a year, making it difficult to take a taxi.

  From August 19th to 22nd, the reporter tried to play Didi Express at different times and locations in Beijing for three consecutive days. Only around 10 am on the 19th, a driver took the order at Chaoyangmen Subway Station in Chaoyang District and came within two minutes. The rest of the time, such as the morning peak on the 21st, at Landianchang South Road, Haidian District, the order with Didi Express has always been displayed as "no car available nearby"; at 7 pm on the 22nd, at the south of Hangkong Bridge, Didi Express also displayed "no car available nearby".

  At the same time in Jinan, Shandong Province, the reporter used Didi to take a taxi many times with only one success. At 7:30 am on the 22nd, Yanzi West Road, with Didi to call an order, no one took the order twice in a row, showing "no car available nearby". At around 8 o’clock, there was still no one taking the order at the intersection of Ping and Shandong University, which also showed "no car available nearby". In addition, the reporter also found in real time in many other areas that the mobile phone client side showed that the express train "There are fewer vehicles nearby and the waiting time is long". Only at 3 pm on the 22nd, the reporter used Didi to call a taxi near Qianfoshan Hospital in Shandong Province.

  At around 3:00 pm on August 24, the reporter used Didi Taxi to book a taxi in Anning District, Lanzhou, Gansu Province, and tried three times without anyone taking the order. Then he used Didi Express four times, each time at an interval of 5 minutes, and still no one answered. Most of the time, the map showed that there were no vehicles nearby.

  That day in Yinchuan City, Ningxia, the reporter sent out orders during off-peak hours. The mobile phone software showed that the vehicle would arrive within 1 to 4 minutes, making it easier to take a taxi. However, in places slightly away from the city, such as Beita Lake, Huabo Park, and Shenyang Road, no one answered the order after 1 minute.

  Why is it not easy to play online car-hailing? The subsidy is less, and the threshold is higher.

  Compared with the "golden period" two years ago, online car-hailing is obviously not so easy to get. What is the reason?

  Mr. Zong, 33, lives in the high-tech zone of Jinan City. He is a part-time driver of Didi Express and has been driving fast for more than a year. At first, he took the car to join the express team because his friend had a good income from driving fast. He said that at that time, because of various subsidies, his income was very good. At one point, he wanted to quit his job to drive fast. The most impressive order was to pull passengers to catch the train during peak hours, and the customer gave 2.5 times the reward.

  But this year, the "money scene" has begun to dim. He is glad that he did not quit his job. Many of his friends who drove fast cars in the past have already found other jobs. Mr. Zong believes that the main reason for the current lack of online car-hailing is that subsidies are less, and driving cannot earn money.

  "Sometimes I work until the early morning at night, and sometimes I can earn about 100 yuan for running on weekends. If I make this money, if I get a violation of regulations or something, I won’t be able to scratch it." Mr. Zong said that in the future, it will depend on how the implementation rules of Jinan are determined. According to the requirements in the exposure draft, his own private car will definitely not meet the conditions, and the cost will definitely increase greatly if it is converted to a operating vehicle. If it is not cost-effective, it will not be opened.

  Mr. Li of Yinchuan, Ningxia, has been running an express car for three years with his own 50,000 yuan private car. He chose to change careers this year because "there is no subsidy and he can’t make money." Mr. Li told reporters that many people buy cars worth tens of thousands of yuan to run Didi Express. According to the rules, the peers he knows are not up to standard.

  A staff member of an online car-hailing agency in Yinchuan City told reporters that the current Didi platform has begun to block the express numbers of substandard vehicles one after another. Among the drivers of Didi Express in Yinchuan, 80% of the cars or drivers do not meet the online car-hailing standards.

  The decrease in the number of online car-hailing, on the one hand, makes consumers feel that the car is not easy to play, but also makes other express drivers who choose to stay feel better. In Beijing, Yu Sijia, who was born in 1989, has been driving online car-hailing for a year and a half. At the end of last year, he successfully obtained the online car-hailing driver qualification certificate with a high score of 90 points. He told reporters that even if he has a good order income on weekdays, he still likes to take orders at night, because there are fewer owners who come out to take orders than in the past.

  Mr. Yang of Xi’an, Shaanxi Province, who bought an Audi A4 sports car, said that compared with the past, there are significantly fewer people in sports cars, and the work is easier than before, because the threshold has been raised. "You drive a car with tens of thousands of dollars to run a special car. To be honest, it is not fair to us. Fortunately, many people quit after the details came out."

  Expert consultation: The threshold should be kept as low as possible

  Is it right to strictly control online car-hailing through high thresholds? Is there any indisputable place in the new policy of online car-hailing?

  According to data from the Ministry of Communications, there are currently more than 130 online car-hailing platform companies planning to carry out online car-hailing business, and 19 online car-hailing platform companies have obtained business licenses in relevant cities, but only 100,000 online car-hailing driver licenses have been issued in various places. On the demand side, as of December last year, the number of online taxi booking users reached 225 million. A mere 100,000 licensed online car-hailing drivers are facing the demand of more than 200 million people. Even with taxis, the contradiction between supply and demand in the market is also very sharp.

  "The regulations of’Beijing Renjing License ‘and’Shanghai Renren Shanghai License’ have caused a large number of original online car-hailing drivers to be unable to continue on the road, resulting in a serious imbalance between supply and demand," Ye Qing, a professor at Zhongnan University of Economics and Law, told CCTV. Professor Ye Qing has written to the National Two Sessions for eight consecutive years to demand "bus reform" and is known as the first person in China’s bus reform. He said: "The management department has relatively high requirements for online car-hailing, but I think there is a way to solve this problem, that is, what is the standard of taxis in the city? The standard of online car-hailing is based on this standard, which is not lower than or parallel to the taxi standard, because a city’s taxis should pay attention to both economy and safety."

  Ye Qing said that too harsh conditions are suspected of being unfair. As long as the driver of the online car-hailing car has no illegal record and meets the driving age and other conditions, he can drive the online car-hailing car after passing the test. "To improve the online car-hailing system, especially when formulating regulations at the local level, the threshold should be lowered as much as possible."

  Cheng Huiqiang, a researcher at the Development Research Center of the State Council, also said in an interview with the media that the government should conduct big data analytics and urban transportation capacity assessments while strengthening supervision, so that the transportation capacity can be matched with the city’s transportation operation to meet the public’s travel needs.

  Xu Kangming, the Ministry of Transport’s chief expert on deepening taxi reform, told the media that if the city’s transportation capacity can be fully tapped, the problem of taxi-hailing difficulties can be solved. He believes that the transportation capacity of cruise taxis and compliant online car-hailing has not been fully released. It is necessary to let the full potential of legal compliance be realized, and at the same time, it is necessary to allow some time for vehicles and personnel that meet the new regulations to enter the market.

"In the car we made ourselves!"

The cornerstone of the First Automobile Factory engraved with Mao Zedong’s inscription

In May 1958, China’s first "Dongfeng" brand car was successfully trial-produced

In the early days of the founding of New China, Mao Zedong said: What can we make now? We can make tables and chairs, tea bowls and pots, grow grain, grind flour, and make paper, but we can’t make a car, an airplane, a tank, or a tractor.

Achieving socialist industrialization is a natural requirement and a necessary condition for a country to become independent and prosperous, and is the foundation and premise for building a modern socialist power. During the "First Five-Year Plan" period, the state concentrated its resources to establish an independent and relatively complete industrial system and national economic system in a short period of time, achieving rapid growth of the national economy, which was of far-reaching significance to China’s later industrial development.

The cornerstone of the "First Automobile Factory Groundbreaking Memorial" displayed in the History Exhibition Hall of the Communist Party of China, inscribed by Mao Zedong, is 120.5 centimeters long, 70 centimeters high, 5.5 centimeters thick, and weighs 250 kilograms. The texture of white marble is an important witness to the history of industrial construction in New China.

On June 15, 1953, Mao Zedong delivered a speech at the Politburo meeting of the Central Committee, formally proposing the general line for the transition period. Faced with the lack of funds, technology and talents, to establish China’s own industrial system, it is necessary to formulate detailed plans and concentrate the limited human, material and financial resources to build a number of urgently needed major projects.

Under the personal guidance of Mao Zedong and the direct help of the Soviet Union, the first five-year plan was formulated by Zhou Enlai, Chen Yun, Li Fuchun, etc., and the strategic decision to give priority to the development of heavy industry was made. Adhering to the policy of "self-reliance first, and foreign aid as a supplement", the preliminary industrial layout was completed. During the "First Five-Year Plan" period, a total of 694 large and medium-sized construction projects were arranged, and 921 were actually constructed, including 156 construction projects aided by the Soviet Union, focusing on the development of heavy industry, energy, raw materials, machine manufacturing and other basic industrial projects.

In 1953, the People’s Daily published a New Year’s Day editorial announcing that China had begun to implement the first five-year plan, calling on the people of the whole country to work together with one heart and one mind and actively strive for the realization of industrialization. Building a prosperous and strong modern industrial country is the dream of several generations of Chinese sons and daughters. Faced with the "poor and white" family background and the heavy blockade in the world, the Chinese people have a common dream, a foothold in the sky, and energy. Facing difficulties, the Chinese people have carried out large-scale industrial construction in full swing across the country.

As early as Mao Zedong’s first visit to the Soviet Union, he visited the Stalin Automobile Factory. At that time, he pointed to the cars that drove down the assembly line and said to his entourage: "We also want to have such a large factory!" On July 15, 1953, the first automobile industrial base of New China, Changchun First Automobile Factory, held a groundbreaking ceremony in a barren suburb of Changchun. Mao Zedong personally wrote the cornerstone inscription. Instead of adopting the proposed "Mao Zedong Automobile Factory" or "New China Automobile Factory", he named it the First Automobile Factory because he said: "We will soon have a second and a third."

600 million yuan was invested in the construction of the FAW, which is equivalent to one yuan for 600 million people in the country. On July 13, 1956, we forcefully announced that the first car in New China was successfully trial-produced. "From today onwards, the history of China’s inability to manufacture cars is over, and our own cars will be driven out of here more and more day by day." Mao Zedong personally picked up the pen and wrote the word "Liberation". The first batch of 12 "Liberation" brand cars drove off the assembly line and became an eternal and precious freeze frame in the history of the Republic. The rejoicing masses, as the song made up at that time sang: "Looking forward to the stars and the moon, the domestic car that I hoped for really left the factory." Just one year later, Changchun FAW completed the production of 4,000 vehicles stipulated in the first five-year plan six months and five days ahead of schedule.

In 1958, the Changchun FAW Factory produced China’s first domestically produced car, the Dongfeng brand car. After the manufacture was completed, it was instructed by the central government to be shipped by train to Beijing. When it drove off the platform, it was almost unable to leave the Beijing Railway Station due to the enthusiastic crowd competing to watch. Dongfeng originated from Mao Zedong’s famous statement on the international situation – "Dongfeng overwhelms the westerly wind". The word "Dongfeng" on the front of the car was originally Chinese pinyin. On the eve of the Dongfeng car arriving in Beijing and driving into Zhongnanhai, according to the suggestion of the then director of the General Office of the Central Committee ***, in order to highlight the cars produced by the Chinese themselves and replace them with Chinese characters, FAW staff went to the People’s Daily overnight to photocopy Mao Zedong’s original handwriting of "Dongfeng overwhelms the westerly wind". It was replaced in an auto repair shop in Dengshikou, and a golden dragon was about to be vacated in the front of the car, which was very Chinese. Mao Zedong took it in person and said happily: "We took a car made by ourselves!"

While the automobile industry was booming, various industrial categories were also in full swing. On December 26, 1953, the three major projects of Angang, consisting of a large rolling mill, a seamless steel pipe plant, and a No. 7 blast furnace, were completed and put into operation. At the same time, new steel production bases were deployed, and a new layout of the steel industry in New China was initially formed. The petroleum industry, chemical industry, and weapons industry have all achieved a certain degree of development, focusing on the construction of emerging industrial sectors such as aviation and electronics, and the creation of new cutting-edge industries in the nuclear and aerospace industries. In 1956, Shenyang Aircraft Factory produced the first new jet fighter; in 1958, the first Dongfanghong tractor was born in the first tractor factory located in Luoyang City… In that fiery construction era, China, which used to import iron nails and matches, achieved one zero breakthrough after another, and gradually established an industrial economic system under the leadership of the socialist state-run economy, which made our country’s industrial economy recover and develop rapidly under extremely difficult conditions.

Today, steel dragons meander vertically and horizontally, phoenixes spread their wings at Daxing Airport, Chang’e Tiangong catches the moon in nine days, and flood dragons and snow dragons catch turtles in five oceans. Over the past 70 years, China’s industry has achieved one "zero breakthrough" after another, and Chinese manufacturing and Chinese creation are gradually leading the world.
