Chen Bairong, a deputy to the National People’s Congress and Shede Wine Industry, suggested strengthening the "smart transformation" of the food manufacturing industry and accelerating the development

On March 5, the Second Session of the 14th National People’s Congress was grandly opened in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. In his second year in office, Chen Bairong, a deputy to the National People’s Congress and wine designer of the wine design department of the Shede Wine Industry Production Technology Center, brought 5 suggestions in the fields of new quality productivity, Baijiu internationalization, and regional development, actively responding to industry and social concerns. Among them, "Suggestions on Promoting the High-quality Development of Traditional Alcohol Industry with New Quality Productivity" and "Suggestions on Strengthening the Work of Intelligent Reform and Digital Transformation in the Food Manufacturing Industry" are closely related to the high-quality development of the food manufacturing industry.

Chen Borong, a deputy to the National People’s Congress and Shede Wine Industry

At present, the food manufacturing industry is in a critical period of development from traditional to modern, from artificial to intelligent, and from experience to science. These topics that Chen Berong focuses on not only reflect the industry’s in-depth thinking on moving towards high-quality development, but also reflect the determination and responsibility of the wine industry to promote the intelligent upgrade of the wine industry, develop new quality productivity, help China Baijiu go global, and promote social and economic development.

Focusing on cultivating new quality productivity and gathering new impetus for high-quality development

The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China has made important arrangements to accelerate the construction of a digital China, emphasizing the construction of a modern industrial system, the promotion of new industrialization, and the deep integration of the digital economy and the real economy.

As one of the basic industries of the national economy, the food manufacturing industry is constantly accelerating the process of digital intelligence. In particular, the Baijiu industry has vigorously carried out informatization and digital construction in the past ten years, and comprehensively improved the intelligence level of R & D, production, marketing, management and service. Among them, Baijiu leading enterprises have accumulated a lot of practical experience.

As a frontline worker in Baijiu’s scientific research, Chen Berong deeply understands the key role that "smart transformation and digital transformation" plays in the development of Baijiu’s industry. In order to improve the intelligent level of the industry and promote the full-link transformation and upgrading of enterprises, Chen Berong put forward the "Suggestions on Strengthening the Smart Transformation and Digital Transformation of the Food Manufacturing Industry" at the two sessions this year. When it is implemented, it is recommended to take the Baijiu industry first and choose parks with better basic conditions to carry out pilots, such as Sichuan Tuopai Green Ecological Food Industrial Park. She suggested building industry traceability standards, guiding enterprises to build traceability systems, improving industry service quality, and opening up industry data assets, ensuring intelligent manufacturing levels, improving industry production efficiency, and strengthening national policy guidance and talent training. She also suggested actively exploring and promoting the Chuanjiuyuan universe project to enhance the industry’s innovative layout.

At the same time, Chen Berong is concerned about the current imbalance in the level of digital intelligence promotion in the industry, and the high participation threshold for small and medium-sized enterprises and small and medium-sized wine merchants, which is a pain point related to the overall high-quality development of the industry. To this end, she put forward the "Suggestions on Promoting the High-quality Development of Traditional Alcohol Industry with New Quality Productivity". She suggested that we should increase the policies and financial support for the digital intelligence transformation of the alcohol industry and the circulation industry, support the establishment of public DataRocks in the wine industry, and strengthen cooperation between industry, academia and research, and cultivate professional talents. At the same time, we should formulate and improve relevant standards for the digital intelligence transformation of the alcohol industry to ensure the standardization and safety of

It is worth noting that a number of wine industry representatives put forward suggestions on the development of new quality productivity at the two sessions, which is undoubtedly a positive reflection and response to the higher level and more sustainable development of our country’s wine industry. It is foreseeable that with the joint efforts of the government, enterprises and all sectors of society, new technologies and new models will be more widely used in the wine industry, injecting new impetus into the sustainable prosperity and development of the industry.

Fosun and Yuyuan are deeply empowered and willing to forge new engines for the development of the wine industry

The development history of Baijiu is the history of innovation in winemaking technology. In the current wave of intelligence and digitalization, China’s wine industry focuses on technological innovation, technological research and development, and enhances its core competitiveness. Among them, famous wine enterprises play a leading role.

As a famous wine enterprise in China and one of the six golden flowers of Sichuan wine, Shede Wine Industry has taken "science and technology innovation drive" as one of the top strategies under the guidance of the science and technology innovation strategy of Fosun and Yuyuan. From hiring chief scientists, cultivating scientific research talents, building high-energy scientific research teams, to building the three major industry-university-research innovation platforms of "China Shede Aging Wine Research Institute", "China Ecological Brewing Industry Technology Research Institute" and "Sichuan Wine and Grain Industry Technology Research Institute", Shede Wine Industry has provided strong technical support for the development of science and technology innovation work.

In recent years, Shede Wine Industry has actively promoted the transformation and upgrading of digital intelligence. By continuously optimizing the production supporting facilities and equipment such as three-dimensional warehouses, new water purification workshops, wine storage equipment, and filling equipment, Shede Wine Industry has improved the level of factory intelligence and promoted the improvement of production and operation quality and efficiency. Not only that, Shede Wine Industry closely combines "ecological brewing" with the concept of green, low-carbon and environmental protection, and is committed to empowering the green development of enterprises with technological upgrades. For example, in 2022, the company invested in the biogas purification of biological natural gas in wastewater treatment stations. Since it was put into operation, it has reduced carbon dioxide emissions by more than 6,000 tons every year, effectively purified and utilized about 3 million cubic meters of natural gas, and saved about 6 million yuan in gas purchase costs. Due to its good results in carbon reduction and efficiency, the project was successfully selected into the "2023 Model Case of China’s Pollution Reduction and Carbon Reduction Synergy" by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment.

At the same time, Shede Wine Industry is also committed to applying digital means to create a deep consumer experience, not only pioneering "dynamic wine age" in the industry, but also realizing the visualization, dynamics and transparency of wine age through digital means. It also pioneered the innovation and implementation of the high-quality Baijiu full-link grading traceability system based on blockchain technology, realizing the traceability and closure of Shede Old Wine from raw grain, brewing, storage, packaging, circulation to consumption, etc., bringing users a high-quality consumption experience of true vintage and true old wine.

Thousands of sails are competing for the "new" line, and the tide is surging in the east like a rainbow. As a contemporary advanced productive force, the new quality productive force will continue to release strong momentum with the in-depth promotion of scientific and technological innovation. Represented by Shede Wine Industry, many leading enterprises have anchored technological research and development and are committed to promoting the technological progress and digital intelligence transformation and upgrading of the industry, and together contribute more to accelerating the cultivation and development of the new quality productive force.

Cars are comparable to "BBA" but are being chased by Internet Tech Giants. Where is the profit point of NIO that lacks "core"?

  "Investor Network" Wen Xia Jing 

  According to the latest operating data released by NIO (NYSE: NIO), the company delivered 20,060 vehicles from January to March this year, an increase of 423% year-on-year, and successfully achieved the goal of achieving 20,000 deliveries in Quarter 1 predicted by Li Bin, founder, chairperson and CEO of NIO. However, at the same time as the good news, NIO encountered the embarrassment of chip shortage: the NIO foundry Hefei Jianghuai Manufacturing Plant stopped production for 5 days, affecting the production of at least 500-1000 vehicles.

  Li Bin admitted that due to the impact of the supply chain (chips and batteries), NIO’s monthly production capacity of 7,500 vehicles is also under pressure.

  It is worth noting that NIO, one of China’s "three heroes of new energy vehicle manufacturing", is still in a state of heavy losses. NIO’s current situation is that, on the one hand, the production capacity is constrained by the shortage of chips, and the operating pressure is overwhelmed by the haze; on the other hand, the car manufacturing track is already crowded with Internet bosses who "show their muscles", and the competition drama can be imagined. 

  NIO, whose share price once fell to the "delisting red line" of $1, has just "come back to life" from the brink of danger, but the pressure it faces has not eased. Under the dilemma of "internal and external troubles", how can Li Bin and NIO break through the dilemma of "profitability difficulty"?

  Under the gamble, the gross profit margin turned positive, and the huge loss was still "leading" the new car-making forces 

  NIO is the company with the highest monthly delivery volume of "new car forces". In February this year, its delivery volume was 5578 vehicles, which was 2.4 times that of Li Auto, which is also a new car force, and 2.5 times that of XPeng Motors. It ranked among the top ten luxury car sales and once surpassed luxury car companies such as Land Rover and Porsche.

  However, before April 2020, NIO was on the verge of "dying" due to its high debt.

  As we all know, the delivery volume of the automobile industry is equal to the sales volume. It stands to reason that as the company with the largest monthly sales volume, the profit should be the largest. But this is not the case. Although NIO leads China’s new energy vehicle industry by its own sales and is dubbed "China Tesla", the continuous loss and the reality of "selling one at a loss" once caused NIO’s share price to fall to the "delisting red line" of $1.

  Just as Li Bin and his NIO were struggling, the Hefei Municipal Government and the 7 billion reached a gambling agreement with NIO.

  The agreement stipulates that NIO will invest in the acquisition and establishment of NIO China, requiring NIO China to generate revenue of 14.80 billion yuan in 2020, 120 billion yuan in 2024, and list 6-8 new models, and achieve total revenue of 420 billion yuan from 2020 to 2025.

  The money brought by this bet saved NIO in times of crisis, but this step-by-step implementation and batch arrival requirements and agreements also made Li Bin and his NIO dare not slack in the slightest.

  From the financial report released by NIO, there are many bright spots in NIO’s financial report in 2020. NIO’s total revenue in 2020 reached 16.258 billion (RMB, the same below), an increase of 107.8% year-on-year; among them, the gross profit margin rose from -7.4% in Quarter 1 to 17.2% in the fourth quarter, and the annual gross profit margin for the whole year was 11.5%. This is the first time that NIO has turned positive after being listed for three years.

  But even so, NIO’s full-year net loss in 2020 was as high as 5.304 billion, and the 11.295 billion of losses compared to 2019 was significantly narrowed, but it was still a reality that NIO was not profitable.

  Compared with Li Auto, which is the three heroes of China’s new car manufacturing forces, Li Auto’s annual revenue in 2020 was 9.461 billion, an increase of 3231.33% year-on-year, and the loss was only 152 million; NIO’s revenue was 1.3 times the ideal, but the loss was 35 times!

  Under the background of obtaining local government investment 7 billion, NIO has achieved a significant increase in revenue and a positive gross profit margin, which is a seemingly bright "answer sheet". In theory, NIO can increase profits as long as it increases delivery, thereby reducing losses and achieving profitability. However, judging from NIO’s current core shortage dilemma and further planning in 2021, the outlook for NIO to achieve profitability is not optimistic.

  Is the high cost pushing the "power exchange model" 42.50 billion cash flow enough to burn? 

  In early March, NIO announced that it currently has cash reserves 42.45 billion (including cash and cash equivalents, restricted currency cash, and short-term investments).

  Even if the funds are abundant, the amount of money Li Bin plans to "burn" is not small, judging from the new layout for 2021 announced by Li Bin at the earnings conference.

  Li Bin declared that in 2021, NIO plans to "improve the efficiency of the system", specifically, from research and development, sales, and the establishment of replacement stations and the improvement of the charging and replacement mode. Li Bin said that he plans to invest 5 billion research and development expenses in 2021, and build 20 new NIO centers and 120 NIO spaces; in addition, NIO still insists on the "replacement mode" different from Tesla’s charging mode, and plans to build more than 500 replacement stations and improve the charging mode in China in 2021, establishing 600 supercharging stations and 15,000 destination charging piles.

  Industry commentator Zhang Shule believes that NIO’s power exchange model has a bright future. "Although the power exchange model is different from Tesla’s charging model, it has new opportunities."

  Zhang Shule said that because the benefits of the power exchange model are obvious, its charging speed is fast, and it can form an efficient turnaround rate of car "charging", which is far more convenient than the use of charging piles for electric vehicles to occupy parking spaces. It is also more suitable for the promotion of the core areas where parking spaces are tight and electric vehicle charging demand is high. "At present, the state has also increased its support in the field of new energy vehicles, and electric vehicles have entered a rapid popularization stage in China, so the power exchange model has a strong application prospect." 

  Although the outlook for the power swap model is promising, NIO’s path to profitability remains uncertain.

  Zhang Xiang, a member of MIIT’s new industrialization capacity building "Changfeng" plan, a think tank for new energy and intelligent connected automobile industry experts, told Investor Network that NIO’s power exchange model is the core competitiveness of the future. Because it provides users with new experiences and choices.

  "But the current power exchange is a loss, and it will still be in a state of loss in the next few years." Zhang Xiang believes that the main reason why NIO cannot make a profit is that the construction investment of the replacement station is too large, and the lack of NIO’s inventory makes the utilization rate of the replacement station not high enough to subsidize the investment profitably. Zhang Xiang said, "NIO can only sell cars if it wants to make a profit. By raising the price of vehicles, it can obtain high profits to make up for the loss."

  NIO’s goals are lofty and its vision is perfect, but the reality is very skinny: on the one hand, it does not follow the popular route and adheres to the high-end market; on the other hand, in the face of a large number of losses, it also increases investment and insists on the development of the power replacement model.

  This could be said to be a dilemma for NIO. Although NIO’s losses narrowed in 2020, the main reason was the reduction in R & D investment and the construction of power station stations in 2020. If NIO wanted to make money, it had to "sell cars" in large quantities, but the cars it sold were only for the high-end market.

  Investor Network learned from NIO’s official website that the price of NIO’s models is more than 300,000 yuan. According to data from China Automotive Industry, NIO’s SUV ES8 surpassed BMW X5 for the first time in Shanghai in January 2021, becoming the first among medium and large SUV vehicles above 400,000. It can be said that as a car company, NIO can already rival traditional luxury car manufacturers such as "BBA (BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Audi) ".

  However, this "burning money" dilemma of "selling while losing money" makes it all the more difficult for NIO to turn a profit.

  Technology bosses get together to build cars NIO comparative advantage 

  The next trend in the internet is cars.

  According to the "New Energy Vehicle Industry Development Plan (2021-2035) " document, the sales of new energy vehicles will reach 20% of the total sales of new cars in 2025. According to the statistics of the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers in early January, the cumulative sales of our country’s automobile industry in 2020 were 2527.2 million, and the sales of new energy vehicles were 1.367 million.

  If the total sales of new cars in 2025 is 25 million, it means that the sales of new energy vehicles will reach 5 million. From 1.30 million to 5 million This means that new energy vehicles will have great market demand, and the new trend of making money will naturally attract the pursuit of Internet bosses.

  Recently, Lei Jun led Xiaomi into the new energy vehicle industry, intending to open up a new world in the automotive industry. Previously, large Internet companies such as Baidu and Apple have announced their entry in a high-profile manner.

  Although NIO has seized the trend and become one of the three heroes of China’s new car manufacturing forces, it does not have a strong corporate background similar to Baidu and Xiaomi, and NIO is in the dilemma of lack of core and loss.

  Even so, Li Bin still seemed full of confidence. He said at the "WISE 2020 King of the New Economy" conference that NIO is not just a car company, but also a car-oriented community, a community that shares joy and grows together.

  Industry commentator Zhang Shule told Investor.com that although NIO has performed well in the field of domestic electric vehicles before, the main reason is the lack of strong competitors. However, with Baidu, Xiaomi and other Internet technology companies and various traditional car companies entering the new energy vehicles and even higher-dimensional smart cars, NIO’s future competitiveness will be greatly challenged.

  Zhang Shule believes that there will be a bubble in Internet car building, that is, the current artificial intelligence technology and vehicle to everything vehicle part are still in the exploratory stage, and it is inevitable that there will be PPT car building (that is, conceptual car building). However, with the technical background of Internet Tech Giants, there is no big problem for companies like Baidu and Xiaomi, because Internet companies have scientific and technological concepts, such as Baidu is to install "brains" for electric vehicles, and Xiaomi is a hardware retail distributor, forming a combination model to create cost-effective electric vehicles.

  Perhaps for NIO, finding a way to make a profit, get out of the loss dilemma, reach a gambling agreement, and avoid being acquired are the most practical problems it needs to solve urgently. (Produced by Thinking Finance) ■

The official announcement: Volvo will stop production of diesel vehicles next year, and the overall electrification transformation will accelerate.

Nowadays, with the gradual increase of the market share of new energy products, major car companies have also accelerated the layout of this market. For example, Dongfeng Honda is about to launch a brand-new independent brand of new energy; Hyundai wants to join hands with BAIC Group to develop electric vehicles; Volkswagen cooperates with Xpeng Motors to develop pure electric vehicles.

It has to be admitted that joint venture brands have been involved in the "spring tide" of new energy. Volvo, as a luxury brand that laid out new energy routes earlier, also began to speed up on the road of full electrification. Recently, Volvo officially announced that it will stop production of diesel vehicles in early 2024. This means that it is a step closer to achieving full electrification. At the same time, Volvo will become the first mainstream traditional manufacturer to completely abandon diesel vehicles.

It should be noted that until 2019, diesel models will still be Volvo’s main market in Europe. With high reliability, low noise and low fuel consumption, Volvo’s diesel models are widely recognized in the European market. However, according to relevant data, with the rise of new energy vehicles, the market share of Volvo diesel models has also dropped from 50% in 2015 to 14.1% in July 2023.

Previously, Volvo Cars said that by 2030, the company plans to sell only all-electric vehicles; By 2040, the goal will be to become a carbon neutral company. Volvo’s decision to stop production of diesel vehicles has made people full of confidence in Volvo’s future new energy development.

In addition, Volvo sold its shares in the internal combustion engine development company as early as last year, saying that it would not invest any more money in new internal combustion engines. Moreover, Jim Rowan, CEO of Volvo, said: "Electric powertrain is our future, and the company is fully focused on building a series of superior and pure electric vehicles to meet all the expectations of customers for Volvo." It is not difficult to find that Volvo’s determination to transform into electricity is great.

Not only that, Volvo will launch two pure electric SUVs in the next few months, namely Volvo EX90 and EX30, to meet consumers’ demand for Volvo’s new energy products. At the same time, Volvo also announced in August that Volvo EM90, Volvo’s first pure electric luxury MPV, will be launched in the world on November 12th this year, and the reservation in Chinese mainland will be started simultaneously.

Known as "the safest and most secure pure electric SUV ever", Volvo EX90 appeared in the domestic market as early as April this year, and the new car will be listed in China market in 2024. It is reported that the Volvo EX90 is based on the Volvo SPA2 platform and has a good performance in terms of performance.

Another luxury pure electric small SUV, Volvo EX30, also made its world debut as early as June this year. The car is priced at 34,950 US dollars (about 249,000 yuan) in the US market and 36,000 euros (about 274,000 yuan) in the European market. In the China market, the pricing of Volvo EX30 may be more "people-friendly". Volvo EX30 is built on the vast architecture platform of Geely SEA, and smar Elf #1 is also from this platform.

As Volvo’s first pure electric luxury MPV, Volvo EM90 is built on the vast architecture platform of Geely SEA. It is expected to be driven by dual-motor four-wheel drive, and is expected to be equipped with ternary lithium batteries and the latest Kirin batteries. The pure electric cruising range is expected to be around 800km.

In the eyes of Volvo CEO Luo Wenjin, electric power systems are superior to internal combustion engines. They produce less noise, less vibration, lower maintenance costs for customers and zero exhaust emissions. Therefore, whether from the point of view of consumers’ later consumption or Volvo’s goal of coping with climate change, electric vehicles are the best choice.

In the era of fuel vehicles, Volvo is the leader of automobile safety. In the new energy era, Volvo will sublimate safety into new energy vehicles and become the "leader" of new energy vehicle safety. You know, as early as April this year, Volvo released the World Tree Intelligent Security System, which combines the trend of electrification and intelligence to realize the inheritance and evolution of security.

Write it at the end

The debut of Volvo EX90 and Volvo EX30 indicates that Volvo has begun to accelerate on the new energy track. The suspension of diesel models is Volvo’s determination to fully electrify the outside world. Next, Volvo EM90 will be unveiled soon, which further enriches Volvo’s new energy product matrix.

  After watching Xiaomi SU7, let’s take a look at BYD Qin L, which is a very hot new energy car at this auto show. As a brand-new model of this brand, with the listing of this car in the future, it will form a two-car pattern with Qin PLUS to meet the needs of different users. The new car adopts the "New Country Tide and Beauty Aesthetics", and the interior of the large-size front grille is supplemented with dot-matrix elements for makeup, with outstanding visual effects. At the same time, the headlight group is narrow and sharp, which is highly integrated with the luminous "dragon beard" on the top. The integrated design not only makes the dragon face more stereoscopic, but also magnifies the horizontal visual effect of the front face.

  From the side of the car body, its waistline runs through the front fender to the back door, which makes the car body more slender. With the concave rib line under the door, it creates a three-dimensional cutting effect and highlights the sense of strength of the whole car. At the same time, it adopts a slip-back design, showing a "low-lying" posture and being younger. On the tail side, the wide back shoulder design not only echoes the front face, but also increases the muscular feeling of the body contour. At the same time, the car uses a penetrating taillight shape, inspired by Chinese knots, and the recognition is full. In terms of vehicle size, its length, width and height are 4830/1900/1495mm and its wheelbase is 2790mm respectively.

  As for the interior, Qin L’s interior design is inspired by China landscape painting. The agility of oriental landscape and modern technology are combined to create a "landscape painting cockpit" with elegant style. Specifically, the new car uses an embedded large-size LCD instrument with an iconic rotatable central control panel, which makes this car look very scientific and technological. At the same time, the new style of three-spoke multi-function steering wheel and wireless mobile phone charging are added to meet the needs of current users.

  In terms of power, the new car will be equipped with a plug-in hybrid system consisting of a 1.5L engine and a motor, with BYD’s fifth-generation DM-i hybrid technology. The maximum power of the engine is 74 kW, and the maximum power of the motor is 160 kW. Compared with the current DM-i hybrid system of Qin PLUS, this one on Qin L further improves the working efficiency of the engine, thus achieving lower fuel consumption. Qin L will adopt the suspension form of front McPherson and rear+multi-links, which should be better than Qin PLUS in handling and comfort. The new car is equipped with lithium iron phosphate battery from Fudi, Zhengzhou. The battery provides 15.874kWh and 10.08kWh for consumers to choose, corresponding to the pure electric cruising range of WLTC of 90km and 60km respectively.

  It is worth mentioning that at the beginning of this year, BYD Qin PLUS DM-i model shocked the domestic auto market at a price of 79,800 yuan, and Qin L, which is more PLUS than Qin PLUS, is about to debut. This car will have a larger body size than Qin PLUS, and the overall texture of the interior will be more advanced.

  After watching BYD Qin L, let’s take a look at Wangwang U7, which is positioned as a large car. The new car uses a design language similar to Wangwang U9, equipped with a very exaggerated C-shaped headlight group, with a far and near headlight group above it and a circle of LED strip around it. There are raised ribs on the hood of the engine, and the visual impact of the whole front is extremely strong. At first glance, it is a troublesome guy. In addition, there is a small bump on the roof, and the inside should be a laser radar.

Although the new car has a curb weight of 3.095 tons, its top speed can still reach 270 km/h.

  As the flagship brand of BYD’s impact on high-end, looking forward to the popularity of U8 has given the brand confidence to further try the Red Sea in the million-level market. Therefore, in the highly competitive car market, Looking Up to U7 came into being, aiming to share a slice of the large and medium-sized luxury car market with traditional luxury brands such as Mercedes-Benz S-Class, BMW 7 Series and Porsche Panamera. No matter the design or the power level, looking up at U7 is undoubtedly a new species in this class. The new energy era has given car companies more imagination and space to play, and also challenged traditional luxury brands in design ideas and product performance. Judging from the book data, looking up to U7 is not at all worried about the products of traditional ultra-luxury brands, but at the user level, how to successfully spoil the market in this relatively conservative market level and let consumers take the initiative to choose a domestic car with over one million yuan, the product strength itself and marketing are obviously indispensable.

On the whole, the positioning of the two cars in their respective brands does have similarities, and at the same time, on the intelligent level, Tengshi Z9GT also shows strong product strength. However, it should be noted that, in terms of the current Tengshi brand power, although Tengshi Z9GT is the flagship model, it still can’t arouse the purchasing desire of its target consumers. The reason is because of the differences in brand power and brand awareness between the two. The follow-up Tengshi brand still needs to create a better sense of use experience and ritual in terms of luxury and comfort configuration, in order to truly become the car purchase choice of target users.

After playing bad cards for a year, Krypton threw the king bomb today.

A press conference made this new brand, which has just been established for more than a year, win the applause of the owners again after facing the trust crisis of the owners for more than half a year. Of course, many people say that this is just a promise to fulfill. The crotch that was once extremely embarrassing should really be explained to the owners, and this account of more than 20,000 owners has made them pay more than 300 million yuan in tuition fees.

Let’s look at the key contents announced by Krypton at this conference:

△ Qualcomm 8155 architecture cockpit, all car owners 0 yuan upgrade.

△ The new car introduces lightning switching function, and the dual-motor four-wheel drive model can cut off the front motor to realize power-saving driving with rear drive.

△ Intelligent anti-skid function upgrade, OTA comprehensive upgrade

△ A new version -ME version is launched, with a price of 349,000 yuan, which is 40,000 yuan cheaper than the top version of YOU.

△ Introducing smart Bluetooth keys, all car owners can get them for free.

As the first user of Krypton 001, I am undoubtedly excited. As for the excitement of other car owners, we can see that they have the same feelings as me from the extremely crowded app, the new travel app and the constant cheers at the press conference.

As the owner of Krypton 001, why are you a little excited this time?

After Weilai and Lantiu successively released the policy that old car owners pay to upgrade the 8155 chip, the pressure faced this time is unprecedented. The pressure is not a pricing strategy, nor is it the experience after 8155 optimization, but the car of the 820AP platform still has poor experience and bugs after many rounds of OTA, and the word-of-mouth crisis of extreme krypton is derived from this. If you choose to pay for the upgrade, users will obviously have the feeling of backstab.

Free 8155 upgrade is undoubtedly the best way to save word of mouth. And if the 8155 platform and the 820 platform coexist, there will undoubtedly be double pressure for the development of extremely krypton cockpit. Undoubtedly, it will be a more efficient choice to upgrade all the more than 20,000 kryptons to 8155, and only update one version of the system in the future.

It is reported that the cost of a set of 8155 control motherboard will come to about 2-3,000 yuan. At the press conference, Extreme Krypton also announced that the upgrade cost exceeded 300 million yuan. Extreme Krypton paid a high trial and error fee for this, but the word of mouth in return is undoubtedly more valuable. It will pave the way for the software team to focus on optimization in the future.

There is another point that you may overlook. The 8155 chip is also a necessary option for Krypton 001, because in the future, the high-order pilot-assisted driving ability of Krypton depends on the processing of perception by eyeQ5 chip, and the powerful display image processing of 8155 is also an element (vehicle display). Although 8155 does not participate in the algorithm of assisted driving, it will present the images of assisted driving in the cabin, and the computing power of 820 is obviously tight.

Therefore, whether from the user’s word of mouth, research and development costs and future driving assistance, this account is extremely clear, and this money must be spent, and this fee must be exempted.

About the experience of the 8155 car, we will also have a detailed video release soon.

The same situation as the previous smart cockpit was spit out is the assisted driving ability of the polar krypton 001. After the release of version 2.0 OTA in April, only ACC can provide polar krypton, and the single function and poor sense of body really can’t satisfy the majority of car owners.

In this OTA, the functions of LCC navigation assistance, antelope avoidance, matrix headlights and so on have been added. In addition, the previous AEB and FCTA pedestrian anti-collision functions have basically achieved L2-level assisted driving.

However, there are some regrets, for example, the rear blind spot reminder called by the majority of car owners is still not equipped, the auxiliary function of lighting and parallel line, and the ability to remotely enter and leave the parking space vertically promised by An Conghui before are still not equipped.

We will show you the specific experience of this L2-level assisted driving by video in these two days.

What I want to say here is that it seems that the assisted driving upgrade of Krypton 001 has no bright spot in the industry, but it also responds to the negative news of the previous cooperation between Krypton and Mobileye on the Internet.

Before, many people in the industry questioned eyeQ5′ s final driving assistance ability. Mobileye’s consistent black box OEM method represented extreme krypton and did not seem to take the initiative.

And Chen Qi, vice president in charge of intelligent driving research and development with Krypton (former founder of Huawei’s autonomous driving team and former minister of autonomous driving research and development department-what a big boss! In the communication, we learned that the cooperation between Mobileye and Krypton in eyeQ5 is not a simple OEM model, but the two companies jointly participate in the research and development of perception and algorithms and jointly promote the matching with Krypton 001.

The research and development progress of eyeQ5 has been delayed, and the test progress of Israeli R&D personnel and krypton engineers in Hangzhou has been affected by the epidemic, and personnel exchanges and experiments have been delayed to varying degrees. In order to solve this problem, Krypton has sent people to Israel, and people from Mobileye headquarters have also come to Hangzhou and Ningbo from Israel to work together to promote research and development.

Chen Qi said that Krypton’s current R&D team has a scale of 500 people, and the cooperation with Moileye has been carried out in an orderly manner. In the future, Krypton will indeed walk on two legs, and the cooperation with Mobileye will continue, and at the same time, it is also vigorously carrying out full-stack self-research.

He believes that Moileye is still the top autopilot solution company in the world, and hopes that everyone will maintain confidence in the next improvement of the assisted driving ability of Krypton 001.

I believe that Chen Qi’s presence will also give our riders a reassurance.

The focus of this conference is to launch a new version of ME, which can be understood as a simple version of YOU, dual motors, 100-degree battery, and cancel some high-end configurations (such as electric doors that have been criticized for a long time), with a price of 349,000 yuan. Combined with the lightning switching function just released by Krypton, this car can not only have the acceleration ability of 3.8 seconds in four-wheel drive, but also have the endurance ability of more than 700km in two-wheel drive.

Really fragrant, as an old car owner, I really envy it. I had to choose WE712 for battery life, but now, battery life and performance can be taken into account.

And the Bluetooth key, needless to say, the negative Bluetooth key of mobile phone has finally been freed this time, and it is also free.

Ok, let’s stop talking about this conference of Krypton 711. I haven’t sent a video about this experience yet, but I still hope to experience the 8155 car I just upgraded today and restore a "new" Krypton 001 to everyone as much as possible.
