Small dishes and half dishes, where have they all gone? The reporter visited more than 20 hotels and found that it was rarely provided.

  Disappearing Small Dishes Comic Book/Li Xiaojun

  ● With the implementation of the anti-food waste law, small portions and half portions of food were once popular with consumers, and many merchants also launched related dishes in due course. But nowadays, few restaurants set up small dishes and half dishes offline. The main reason is that the cost of time, manpower and material resources has risen and the unit price has become more expensive.

  ● Compared with offline catering, small dishes on the take-away platform are easier to find, but there are also many problems: some restaurants have fewer categories, that is, the types of small dishes provided are much less than those of conventional dishes, generally only six or seven; Some restaurants are not cost-effective, that is, the amount of small dishes is less, but the price is not much cheaper.

  ● It is suggested that businesses should integrate the prevention of food and beverage waste into business processes and employee assessment; The take-away platform can add an "anti-waste" score to the evaluation feedback, which not only urges merchants to fulfill their anti-waste obligations, but also reminds consumers to pay attention to saving. At the same time, in view of the operating pressure of small and medium-sized restaurants, the take-away platform can consider giving certain support to small and medium-sized restaurants that offer small dishes and half dishes, such as reducing commission rates and providing digital support.

  □ Our reporter Zhao Li

  □ Intern of this newspaper Hu Miao

  "We don’t have a small dish here, and we have never set it up." "We used to have half a dish, but it didn’t work well." … …

  A few days ago, the reporter of Rule of Law Daily came to Xidan Joy City in Xicheng District and Shuangqiao wanda plaza in Chaoyang District, and visited more than 20 restaurants, including well-known chain restaurants and specialty shops such as barbecue, hot pot and spring cakes. It was found that almost no restaurants set small dishes and half dishes.

  Among them, four restaurants originally set up small dishes and half dishes, which were later cancelled. The only noodle restaurant that serves small dishes did not mark small dishes on the menu. It was only after the reporter asked that it could provide small dishes.

  Once, with the implementation of the anti-food waste law, small dishes and half dishes were once popular with consumers, and many merchants also launched related dishes in due course. In March this year, the China Consumers Association, together with seven industry associations, societies and chambers of commerce, jointly launched an initiative, including actively promoting small dishes and half dishes.

  However, the reporter’s investigation found that there are not many restaurants offering small dishes and half dishes. Many consumers from Beijing and Tianjin told reporters that whether going to a restaurant for dinner or ordering take-away, they felt that small portions and half portions of food were not as much as before.

  People can’t help asking: where have the small dishes and half dishes gone?

  It’s hard to find a small dish in a restaurant.

  Either no or cancel.

  "When I ordered takeout for a while, I felt that there were quite a lot of small dishes. Now there are obviously fewer businesses offering small dishes." Ms. Lin, who works near the Financial Street in Xicheng District, Beijing, said.

  On the issue of small portions, among the 50 consumers interviewed randomly by reporters, nearly 40 consumers have the same feelings as Ms. Lin.

  Ms. Wen, a citizen of Beijing, remembers that when she ordered food on the take-away platform last year, many restaurants provided small dishes for one person, the price was one third or more cheaper than the normal amount, but it was almost gone this year. "I don’t know why small dishes and half dishes disappeared."

  Mr. Zhao, a Beijing citizen, often goes to a nearby Sichuan restaurant for dinner after playing ball games. The food in this restaurant is relatively large, and the dishes that the ball friends like to eat are different. They asked the boss to provide small dishes and half dishes. As a result, the boss shirked it on the grounds that the chef was too troublesome. "Every time we get together, there will be a lot of dishes left, which is too wasteful."

  Many people have had the experience of being rejected after asking for a small portion of food. Xiao Han, who went to college in Beijing, met a friend for dinner at a northeast restaurant near Wangfujing some time ago. Seeing that other customers ordered a large amount of food, Xiao Han was worried about waste, so he asked the waiter if he had a small dish and whether he could cook it. The other party replied that he could not. "We had to order food normally, but we didn’t finish it, and there was a lot left."

  In order to further understand the setting of small dishes in the hotel, the reporter recently came to Xidan Joy City in Xicheng District, Beijing. At 7 o’clock in the evening, there were long queues at the gates of many restaurants. The reporter randomly asked more than 10 restaurants whether they provided small dishes. Only one noodle restaurant replied that "large and small dishes are not indicated on the menu, but small dishes can be provided according to customers’ requirements". The rest of the restaurants all said that "only normal dishes are available, and no small dishes are set".

  In a pasta shop that specializes in six kinds of materials, such as fat sausage, fried belly, squid and shrimp sauce, the reporter noticed that there are only two choices on the menu, normal portion and increased portion after the price increase. In the face of the reporter’s question "If you can’t finish the normal portion, can you order a small portion?", the waiter of the store replied that "we are all normal portions here, and there is no small portion."

  In wanda plaza, Shuangqiao, Chaoyang District, Beijing, the setting of small dishes is almost the same. The reporter still interviewed more than 10 restaurants at random, and the other party unanimously said that "small dishes are not provided", some replied "I never thought about setting it", and some said that "it was set before, but it was cancelled if the effect was not good".

  The reporter also noticed a phenomenon: even if the same restaurant provides small dishes on the take-away platform, there is no option for small dishes if you go to the restaurant.

  Ms. Fan, who works in Beijing, has encountered this problem. It is precisely because she ordered a small dish to take out in a restaurant. Once she happened to pass by this store, she wanted to order a small dish for dinner. As a result, there was no choice between a small dish and a half dish when ordering.

  "I’m eating alone in a restaurant now. If I want to mix vegetarian and vegetarian dishes, I can only eat fast food like Lamian Noodles, because ordinary restaurants can only order normal food, and there will inevitably be a lot left." Ms. Fan said that some time ago, she went to a restaurant and ordered a vegetarian meal. As a result, the amount of food was super large. Finally, she had to pack it and ate leftovers for two days.

  There is no standard for quantitative pricing.

  Customers think it is not cost-effective

  Although restaurants that don’t offer small dishes are annoying to consumers, some restaurants that offer small dishes are not happy.

  The reporter’s investigation found that compared with offline catering, small dishes on the take-away platform are easier to find, but there are also many problems: some restaurants have fewer categories, that is, the types of small dishes provided are much less than those of conventional dishes, generally only six or seven, and only one or two are rare; Some restaurants are not cost-effective, that is, the amount of small dishes is less, but the price is not much cheaper.

  Some interviewees opened a take-away platform for reporters to see that the price of a small portion of hot and sour potato chips in a certain store is 15 yuan, while the price of a normal portion is 18 yuan, only 3 yuan. "The weight is reduced by half, but the price is only reduced by a little, which is too unreasonable."

  Xiao Yang, a graduate student in Beijing, also noticed this problem. She calculated an account: some small dishes and half dishes are only one-third of the large dishes, but the price is half of the large dishes; Some small dishes with a weight of 1 person are almost two-thirds of the normal vegetable price, or even less. "Many restaurants only mark ‘ 1 person ’ There is no specific gram, so it is only cheaper for businesses, and it is very difficult for consumers to benefit. "

  The reporter saw on a take-away platform that on the take-away menu of a restaurant, kung pao chicken was priced at 38 yuan /1 box, and small portions were priced at 26 yuan /1 person. The specific weight of 1 box and 1 person was not marked. On the take-away menu of another restaurant, the small portion and the normal amount of fish-flavored shredded pork are 26 yuan and 39 yuan respectively, and their portions are all marked as "1 box". There is also a restaurant’s take-away fried chicken. The small portion is different from the normal amount in 10 yuan, and the weight is marked as "about 350g".

  The reporter then compared the large portions and small portions of several dishes on the take-away platform, and found that some small portions have only one-third of the Caicai amount of large portions, and the price is half or even more than that of large portions.

  Although some merchants provide small dishes and half dishes, they have set delivery thresholds, such as clearly marking "No delivery for a single dish" or "The price of a small dish cannot meet the delivery standard". "We can only order multiple small dishes with full discounts and coupons, and we have to use multiple packaging boxes. In this way, the price is much higher and it causes a lot of waste." Xiao Yang said.

  The reporter noticed that some consumers spit on the take-away platform that merchants did not indicate the specifications and weight of small dishes, which made it difficult for them to estimate the actual weight of dishes. Sometimes they clearly ordered small dishes and received too many dishes, which eventually led to waste. Some consumers say that the price of small dishes is almost the same as that of large dishes. Instead of letting merchants take advantage, it is better to order large dishes.

  Popularize the concept of nutritional balance

  Subsidy support should be in place

  Promoting small portions and half portions of dishes is a concrete starting point of "CD Action". In recent years, after active publicity and guidance, this good idea of practicing economy once became the "new standard" of the catering industry.

  The Insight Report on Small Dishes in 2022 released by a platform at the end of last year showed that the number of users searching for "small dishes" on the platform exceeded 130,000 times per day. As of September 2022, the sales volume of small dishes increased by 114.5% compared with the same period in 2020.

  Seeing that the market is getting hot, why don’t many businesses follow the trend? Why do many consumers feel that there are fewer businesses offering small dishes?

  Some merchants told reporters that because the cooking methods and processes of small dishes are the same as those of large dishes, the workload of chefs has increased, and there are more tableware to be washed, and the cost of time, manpower and material resources has risen, so the unit price is more expensive.

  "In the Chinese food industry, dishes have to go through a complicated processing process, and the labor cost of each dish will increase accordingly. Cooking small dishes will consume the same labor cost as cooking large dishes, but the profit is much lower, and I dare not raise prices at will, so I simply don’t cook small dishes." Mr. Liu, who runs a small and medium-sized hotel in Beijing, said.

  There are also hotel operators who have calculated such an account for reporters: for two people to eat, the table area usually selected is four people, and one course is calculated according to five minutes. In the past, the normal weight only needed to order two courses, and the kitchen took 10 minutes. Now, it takes 15 to 20 minutes for customers to order three or four small dishes. As the workload of the stove and chef increases, the serving time will slow down, the time for customers to occupy the table will become longer, the turnover rate will decrease, and the profit will decline.

  The interviewed hotel operators pointed out that if they can’t find a balance between business model and avoiding waste, the introduction of small dishes and half dishes will lead to higher hotel costs, which is the fundamental reason why they are reluctant to provide small dishes and half dishes.

  Cheng Shengkui, a researcher at the Institute of Geographical Sciences and Resources of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and chairman of the Chinese Society of Natural Resources, found that different regions with different levels of economic development have different demands for small dishes. "Consumers in economically developed cities generally feel that the amount of food in hotels is too large, hoping to introduce small dishes. Consumers who often engage in manual labor may ask for a larger amount of food. "

  Therefore, Cheng Shengkui suggested that low-end restaurants can continue to ensure the weight of food, and middle-and high-end restaurants can launch more small dishes to meet the actual needs of customers.

  Li Guoxiang, a researcher at the Institute of Rural Development of China Academy of Social Sciences, analyzed that whether a restaurant can launch a small portion of dishes is mainly considered from the perspective of profit. In addition to small portions, catering enterprises in the future can also provide nutritious meals for customers from the perspective of nutrition. Whether online or offline, relevant departments should introduce policies to encourage and guide businesses to launch small dishes.

  "The obstacles to promoting small dishes and nutritious meals are mainly the eating habits and social identity of the masses, and businesses and consumers must make certain changes. First of all, the media should popularize the concept of balanced diet and nutrition to consumers. After the change of consumers’ concept, catering enterprises will naturally comply with customers’ requirements to provide dishes with balanced nutrition ratio. At the same time, relevant departments should also give certain subsidies to hotels that provide small dishes. " Li Guoxiang said.

  Zheng Fengtian, a professor at Renmin University of China, also believes that it is completely possible to indicate the specifications and calories of meals. From the health point of view, everyone needs to consume a certain amount of calories and protein every day. If the food is clearly marked, consumers can calculate it by themselves when buying, reducing waste and developing scientific and healthy eating habits.

  "The Anti-Food Waste Law stipulates that catering service operators should make food according to the standard specifications, reasonably determine the quantity and weight, provide small meals and other different specifications, and must not induce or mislead consumers to order too much. Many catering businesses should take this regulation as a benchmark and take the initiative to undertake the main obligation to stop catering waste, so as to ensure the sustainable and healthy development of the entire catering industry on the basis of strict economy. At the same time, in view of the operating pressure of small and medium-sized restaurants, the takeaway platform may consider giving certain support to small and medium-sized restaurants that offer small dishes and half dishes, such as reducing commission rates and providing digital support. " Liu Junhai, a professor at Renmin University of China, said.

  The experts interviewed agreed that the core meaning of promoting small portions of food is to stop food waste, which requires the majority of catering businesses and consumers to put the concept and actions of "practicing economy and opposing waste" in place. It is suggested that businesses should integrate stopping food and beverage waste into business processes and employee assessment; The take-away platform can add an "anti-waste" score to the evaluation feedback, which not only urges merchants to fulfill their anti-waste obligations, but also reminds consumers to pay attention to saving. At the same time, consumers also need to jointly safeguard the consumption culture atmosphere of "wasting shame and saving pride" and promote civilized consumption in the whole society.

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

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

image.png

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Counting the top 15 movies in the global box office in 2018, two domestic films are on the list!

  2018 is about to pass. Who will be the best box office in the world among the films released this year? Suddenly, I found that two domestic movies have been in the top ten list for a long time. Today, Xiaobian brings you the top 15 movies at the global box office in 2018. Have you seen them all?

Fifteenth place: Solo: A Star Wars Story)— — $392 million

Ranger network

  "Ranger Solo: The Legend of Star Wars" has a domestic box office of 213 million US dollars and an international box office of 179 million US dollars, of which the domestic contribution is 15 million US dollars. It is really surprising that this movie can appear on this list, because of the polarized evaluation after the film was released. However, the loyal fans of Star Wars series still supported most of the box office of this movie, enough to appreciate the influence of Star Wars series in Europe and America.

Ranger network

  However, the performance of this film is far worse than that of the previous Star Wars series: the opening box office is lower than expected, and the box office expectation is also seriously reduced after two weeks of release. Coupled with the budget surge caused by the replacement of directors, "Ranger Solo: The Legend of Star Wars" has done its best to ensure that it will not lose money. After all, this $392 million was the box office before the split.

Ford CEO: We will also launch a low-priced pickup truck, which will be listed in three years to compete with BYD!

According to media reports, Ford C.EO Jim Farley (Jim Farley)The new electric pickup truck will compete with China’s competitors, especially in terms of production cost. However, it is expected that the model will not be available until three years later.


 

Ford lost billions of dollars in the field of electric vehicles in the first half of 2024, and further efforts are needed to improve profitability.

Jim Farley"It will be compared with China products made in Mexico in the future," he said. He added: "60% of the material cost has been calculated." He stressed that he clearly knew the production cost of the new model.

It is expected that the new medium-sized electric truck will directly compete with BYD "Shark" and other electric pickup trucks. In the scheme of reducing costs, the flexible platform of internal battery assembly and sharing on multiple models is proposed.


 

Jim FarleyRecently, it praised the platform that Ford is developing, and said that it will be used in many electric vehicle models in the future, and commented that together with related platforms, Michigan will start producing LFP batteries in 2026, and the prospect is positive.

However, it has also been pointed out that the time to market is a problem. Ford has changed the electric vehicle plan many times and made different responses to the electric vehicle market, including canceling the three-row electric SUV and diversifying the hybrid vehicles.


 

The medium-sized electric pickup truck named "T3 Project" will be launched at the end of 2027, but no other more information is provided.

Ford plans to produce vehicles in Tennessee, while BYD is considering establishing production facilities in Mexico, with an estimated annual production capacity of 150,000 vehicles.

On May 14th, 2024, SHARK, BYD’s first new energy pickup truck, was officially released in Mexico. This car will be equipped with the same DM-O hybrid system of Equation Leopard, which will be officially released in 2024. DMO is an off-road platform mainly driven by electricity, and both the engine and EHS hybrid system of DMO platform adopt vertical layout.


 

BYD plans SHARK.The pickup truck will be listed in the global market early next year, and the estimated vehicle price is about $55,000. This is the current competitive price with Ford Ranger and Toyota Highlux, and Ford needs to build a more competitive electric pickup truck. If the vehicle launch time is delayed for more than 3 years, it is still a question how competitive the relevant models can be in the market. ???

The pre-sale price and configuration of Chery Tiggo 8 Pro are suspected to have exposed 131,900. Is it expensive?

The price of Pro has always been controversial. Since the sales volume of the series plummeted in February, people can’t help wondering, if the price of Tiggo 8 Pro is not cheap, will there be so many people willing to pay the bill?

Recently, we also obtained a group of exposure information of suspected Tiggo 8 Pro configurations and pre-sale prices from online channels. It is reported that the new car will be listed at the end of April, with a total of 9 configurations, and the pre-sale price range is 131,900 to 169,900.

Of course, this is only a pre-sale price. There is actually a price on this price list, starting from 125,900. Are you excited? As a new member of the Tiggo 8 family, the positioning of the Pro is definitely above the PLUS, so the overall styling style of Ta is still better than that of the Tiggo 8 PLUS. And the size of the car body is also larger than that of the Tiggo 8 PLUS, and the length of the car body reaches 4745mm, but the width and wheelbase are consistent with the 8 PLUS.

The new car has a total of 9 configurations, the basic entry model adopts 1.6-liter displacement, and if it is higher, there are 4 models with 2.0-liter displacement. Among them, the entry-level 1.6-liter basic model is equipped with 24.6-inch dual screen, automatic air conditioning, reversing image, automatic headlights, 18-inch rims, leather seats, 8-speaker brand speakers and other configurations. If it is a higher level, there are side air curtains, 360-degree images, electric adjustment of the main driver’s seat, and ambient lights.

By the time 1.6 was luxurious, there was already front radar and blind spot detection, and the wheel hub was changed to 19 inches. The 1.6-liter distinguished model adds the main driver’s knee airbag, the second row of side airbags, fatigue monitoring, face recognition, fragrance system and so on.

The entry level of 2.0 liter is the same as that of the standard 1.6 liter, except that there is no basic beggar version. However, the 2.0-liter comfort model already has a timely four-wheel drive system.

Ghostbusters point of view: I don’t have much idea about the Tiggo 8 Pro except the final price. As a masterpiece of domestic products, overall, both power and fuel consumption are very good, but I won’t buy it if it’s expensive. What about you?

King of cunning! Mourinho will do whatever it takes to reach another new height.

Mourinho has a wide range of highlights in his experience of coaching some top clubs in Europe. However, his most famous night happened in the Champions League in 2010/11, when two mysterious red cards seemed to benefit Real Madrid in the following rounds. Real Madrid’s qualification from Group G has been stabilized, and Mourinho tried to take action in the last game of the group stage against Ajax. Mourinho incarnated as a master of shuffling, clearly instructed Ramos and Alonso, and took the initiative to get two yellow cards and was sent off.

After Ramos and Alonso are sent off, they will be suspended for one game, but they will remain innocent in the most important knockout. Sure enough, Alonso completed this task in an efficient way and took the initiative to apply for a red card and was sent off. Ramos then received a second yellow card. As expected, the referee Craig Thompson did what was expected and sent off the two players. Then, Ramos walked up to the referee and shook hands with him, which made it more obvious that he was accepting Mourinho’s instructions.

Although Mourinho’s bold decision achieved the expected results, it also brought some adverse side effects to Real Madrid. UEFA ordered Real Madrid to pay a huge fine, Mourinho was suspended for two games and fined 40,000 euros, and the club was also fined 120,000 euros. This legendary coach who calls himself "a special one" makes UEFA very angry! Despite his cunning tricks, Mourinho felt the pain of facing his arch-rival Barcelona not once, but twice that season. First of all, Barcelona performed better in the two rounds of the Champions League semi-final and eliminated Real Madrid.

Under the leadership of coach Guardiola, Barcelona also easily won the La Liga championship with a 4-point advantage. Mourinho finally left Real Madrid in 2013 and returned to Chelsea, starting his second coaching career. After winning the Premier League title again at Stamford Bridge, the 60-year-old handsome man’s worth and reputation gradually declined. Before he took charge of Rome in 2021, his teaching achievements at Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur were unsatisfactory and mixed.

Beta thinks: During coaching Real Madrid, Mu Shuai will do whatever it takes to reach another new height! Mourinho is not only a special one, but also a veritable king of cunning. His unique personal charm attracts countless fans! I hope he can go further in Rome!

So for this news, fans, do you have anything to say? If you like this article, welcome to pay attention to Beta and chat with the stars and the ball game.
