The first OTA heavy upgrade! Yu Chengdong: The M5 intelligent driving version AEB active braking is far ahead.

On August 2nd, a few days ago, AITO’s M5 Smart Driving Edition ushered in the first OTA upgrade, including the opening of NCA in five cities of Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Hangzhou and Chongqing, the full opening of cruise assistance in urban lanes, and the upgrade of intelligent parking assistance.

Today, Yu Chengdong, managing director of Huawei, CEO of BG, and CEO of BU, a smart car solution, issued a document introducing the highlights of this OTA upgrade, such as "The LCC of the national expressway city is fully open, so that the car can follow the car, start and stop independently, and handle traffic jams as skillfully as an’ old driver’".

Yu Chengdong also pointed out that the intelligent driving version of Wujie M5 not only has the far-ahead AEB active braking ability, but also can identify dangers and avoid obstacles in advance in the intelligent driving mode.

It is understood that the Wujie M5 Intelligent Driving Edition was launched in April this year, providing two kinds of power options: extended program and pure electricity. Among them, the price of the extended program intelligent driving edition is 278,900 yuan, and the four-wheel drive intelligent driving edition is 299,800 yuan; The pure electric version is 289,800 yuan for the rear-drive intelligent driving version and 309,800 yuan for the four-wheel drive intelligent driving version.

Compared with the old M5, the intelligent driving version complements the short board of assisted driving. The car is the first to be equipped with Huawei ADS 2.0 intelligent driving system. The hardware consists of 1 laser radar, 3 millimeter-wave radars, 11 camera groups and 12 ultrasonic radars, which can achieve 360 full coverage and all-weather perception, and the farthest detection distance reaches 200 meters.

Buckyball, Crystal Mud … Watch out for the "online celebrity" children’s toys that hurt people.

In the "Children’s Companion Home" in Nanbian Village, Gongfang Town, Le ‘an County, Jiangxi Province, the "Children’s Companion Mom" took the children to play with toys. Xinhua news agency

  [Talking about health]

  Magnetic buckyball, jelly-like crystal mud, luminous balloon … … These "online celebrity" toys, which have sprung up in recent years, are likely to become "sharp weapons" to hurt children. According to media reports, in the past summer vacation, many children in Guangdong, Hubei, Xinjiang and other places suffered gastrointestinal injuries due to swallowing buckyball by mistake, and even needed surgery. What other children’s toys need attention? Where are their security risks? Our reporter sorted out the consumption tips issued by the Defective Product Management Center of the State Administration of Market Supervision, selected some children’s toys that are currently popular in the market but have hidden dangers, analyzed their safety hazards, and called on the whole society to pay more attention to the safety of children’s toys.

  My two-year-old daughter often has a stomachache recently. Her parents thought it was a gastrointestinal problem. As a result, she was sent to the hospital for examination and found that there were four intestinal perforations in her body. Parents are both afraid and puzzled. Why do children have intestinal perforation? It turned out that there was a magnetic bead toy named "buckyball" at home that was swallowed by the girl by mistake, and the hospital finally took the magnetic beads out of the girl through emergency surgery … … This is a recent report in the media. This hospital has treated 7 children who swallowed buckyball by mistake in the last month or so.

  This is not the only report that children’s toys hurt people, and buckyball is not the only children’s toys that hurt people. Magnetic buckyball, jelly-like crystal mud, luminous balloon … … These "online celebrity" toys, which are novel or fun, are ignited by online social platforms, and often become dangerous goods that hurt children.

  The Defective Product Management Center of the State Administration of Market Supervision is responsible for the defect investigation and public opinion monitoring of all kinds of products on the market, and issues consumption tips to recall the defective products. The reporter found that children-related products, including toys, accounted for almost two-thirds of the consumption tips released by official website. The Quality Development Bureau of the General Administration of Market Supervision introduced at the theme activity of children’s products safety education on June 1st this year that since 2008, China has carried out 1,189 recalls of children’s products, accounting for 49.6% of the recalls of consumer goods, involving nearly 6 million pieces, and one recall of children’s products is every two recalls of consumer goods on average.

  These toys and other children’s products with defects in design or quality, in order to attract children, excessively pursue fun and ignore safety. In particular, the security risks of the novel toys that attract attention on the Internet and have the "online celebrity" effect cannot be ignored.

  Buckyball and the small magnetic beads of the magnet pen, "wearing the intestines and breaking the stomach"

  Buckyball is a kind of magnetic beads with a diameter of about 5mm. Many buckyball can be combined into various shapes at will with the help of magnetic force, which has been advertised by merchants as "educational toys" and is very popular with children and parents. There is also a magnet pen with a similar design with buckyball, which is also a new online celebrity product in recent years. In addition to the normal writing function, this pen is inlaid with magnets at both ends, and with matching steel balls, it can realize a variety of combined games by magnetic force. However, buckyball and the magnetic pen, which are fun and creative products, actually have great security risks.

  The Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision once published a case in which a 13-year-old boy in Guizhou sucked a magnet into his mouth while playing with a magnet pen in class, and then used another magnet to attract the magnet in his mouth. As a result, the two magnets successively entered the abdomen along the esophagus. When I went to the hospital for examination, I found that the two magnets were attracted tightly across the stomach muscle layer, and a 0.1 cm perforation was chiseled.

  "There are not a few cases of such magnet injuries, and most of them are concentrated in children aged 1 to 10." The Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision pointed out in the consumption tips that small magnetic parts such as magnetic beads are more likely to be swallowed by children by mistake, and if they enter the trachea, they will cause the danger of suffocation; If it enters the digestive tract, it will cause vomiting and abdominal pain, and it will lead to gastrointestinal damage; Especially when two or more magnets are swallowed, the magnets will adsorb each other through the gastrointestinal wall in the digestive system, and continue to generate pressure, which may cause gastrointestinal perforation or intestinal obstruction, which may be life-threatening in severe cases. In general, these small magnetic parts can only be removed by surgery, which will cause permanent damage to children’s digestive system.

  The Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision reminds that there are many kinds of magnet pens sold in the market, but most of them are three-no products. Not only do they have no factory name, address and product certificate, but also there are no warning instructions on the pen body and packaging, so the safety cannot be effectively guaranteed. It is recommended not to buy such products.

  Borax poisoning of "mud" toys such as crystal mud should not be underestimated.

  The charm of magnet toys lies in the creative experience of combination play, and similar to it, "mud" toys also have such functions. In recent years, all kinds of soft, sticky, jelly-like "mud" toys have become popular around campus and online platforms. They have different names, such as Crystal Mud, slime, Bubble Mud, Cotton Mud, Poke Mud and Snowflake Mud, but they have common characteristics — — Colorful, soft to the touch, can change various shapes, and can also be used to blow bubbles, draw pictures, etc., which is deeply loved by children.

  However, they are not real mud, but are made of many chemicals. These "mud" contain a substance that may be harmful to health — — Borax.

  According to the introduction of the Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision, polyvinyl alcohol, a polymer material dissolved in water, reacts with borax (also known as coagulant aid), and the dissolved polyvinyl alcohol is pulled together by the anions of borax to form a hydrogel with a network structure; On this basis, hand sanitizer, emulsion, pigment, beads, clay, etc. are added to make various "mud" toys such as crystal mud.

  These "mud" toys are brightly colored, similar to jelly, and usually have their own straws, which can blow bubbles nominally. When children blow bubbles with straws, the product comes into close contact with the mouth, which may lead to the risk of borax poisoning. The Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision explained that borax is extremely harmful to human health. Excessive intake in a short period of time will cause nausea, vomiting, depression, convulsions, skin flushing, circulatory failure and other symptoms. Excessive intake for a long time will lead to cumulative poisoning of multiple organs, causing damage to organs such as liver, kidney, brain and lung. The toxic dose of borax is 1 to 3 grams for adults, 15 to 20 grams for adults and 5 grams for children.

  At present, borax is prohibited as a food additive in many countries, and the intake of boron is limited. The national standard (GB5749-2006) of Hygienic Standard for Drinking Water in China stipulates that the limit of boron in drinking water is 0.5 mg/L. The EU’s requirement for boron content in toys made of liquid, pigment, jelly and other materials is limited to 300mg/kg. The Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision has tested 10 kinds of finished crystal mud products randomly purchased, and found that the boron content of 8 kinds of products exceeded 300mg/kg, and the highest one reached 1336mg/kg, far exceeding the safety limit of boron content in various countries. Once children eat by mistake when blowing bubbles with these crystal mud, there may be a danger of borax poisoning.

  Perhaps it is realized that this toy with borax directly added is easy to be found, and some merchants have introduced the so-called "non-toxic crystal mud" products, adding some daily chemical products to the glue containing polyvinyl alcohol instead of borax, such as washing powder, laundry detergent, shower gel, guar gum and so on. "This is actually very confusing, because these daily chemical products actually contain borax ingredients, and children also have the safety hazard of eating poisoning during playing." The Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision pointed out in the consumption tips that any toy containing borax does not meet the requirements of our country.

  The Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision also specially reminded that homemade "mud" toys are more dangerous than finished products, and children will be directly exposed to large doses of borax and other chemical ingredients during play. Skin exposure to these chemicals for a long time is likely to cause chemical burns, allergies or cumulative poisoning; If children abuse the preparation container during play, such as drinking water from a glass filled with borax, or not washing their hands in time after play, it is easy to eat borax or other chemical ingredients by mistake, leading to the danger of poisoning.

  For toys such as crystal mud, especially homemade "mud" toys, the advice given by the Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision is: Don’t buy!

  Online celebrity balloons will glow or explode.

  On this summer night, you can often see sparkling balloons with colorful light in squares or parks, which are very popular with children. This kind of balloon first attracted attention on online social media, and was called online celebrity balloon by many people. However, although the online celebrity balloon is beautiful, it has hidden dangers. According to media reports, there was a balloon explosion in online celebrity somewhere in Jiangsu province, and four people were hospitalized with different degrees of burns.

  How can a balloon explode? How serious is the harm?

  According to the Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision, this luminous balloon is mainly composed of transparent balloons, multicolored light strips and battery boxes, and its structure is very simple. A string of thin multicolored LED strip is wrapped around the surface of the transparent balloon, and a small battery box is tied to the tail end of the traction rope. The battery is placed in a plastic box, and the power supply is directly connected to the light strip, and the light can be emitted when the switch is turned on.

  The balloon itself is a pressure vessel, and with this design and construction, the safety risk is higher. Testing by the Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision found that balloons in online celebrity are mostly made of plastic, and once they come into contact with high-temperature heat sources (such as stoves) or open flames (such as lighters), balloons may explode. On the one hand, the surface temperature of the melted plastic is very high at high temperature, and the plastic liquid dripped from the melted plastic will cause serious burns and scalds if it sticks to human skin. On the other hand, balloon deflagration will produce irritating toxic gas, which may cause burns and other injuries to human respiratory tract. In addition, due to the bare wires, sparks may be generated during use, which may cause the balloon to explode.

  Some experts pointed out that the gas inside the online celebrity balloon may also become a safety hazard. For safety reasons, balloons are generally filled with inert gases such as helium, and hydrogen has long been prohibited from being used to inflate balloons because of its flammability and explosiveness. However, because hydrogen is cheaper than helium, some unscrupulous merchants may still use hydrogen to inflate online celebrity balloons. In a online celebrity balloon explosion reported by the media, experts pointed out after analysis that "judging from the power of the balloon explosion described by the injured, the balloon they bought is likely to pass off hydrogen as helium".

  The Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision reminds that children should play such balloons under the care of their parents; Stay away from fire sources, heat sources and sharp objects when playing with balloons, and don’t use lighters to burn the traction line of balloons; It is best not to buy such balloons when the weather is very hot, because high temperature weather is more likely to cause balloon explosion; Don’t take a balloon in a car, subway, elevator, etc. Once an explosion occurs, the impact of a closed space will be very great.

  Laser pen can cause permanent damage to eyes. Don’t play with children.

  The light is dazzling and dangerous. Online celebrity balloon, laser pointer.

  I don’t know when, the laser pointer used as an indicator in classroom teaching, conference explanation and other places has become a toy for many children and a dangerous toy. As a result, there have been many reports in the media: "When a laser pointer shines, the eyes of a 7-year-old boy can’t see", "When an 8-year-old boy plays with a laser pointer, his eyes are permanently damaged", and "The sampling tests of online shopping for children’s laser pens all exceed the standard, and the harmful visual damage is irreversible" … … According to the Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision, according to the product injury monitoring and network public opinion monitoring, injury accidents involving laser pens have occurred frequently in recent years.

  Laser pointer, also called laser pointer, is a portable device that uses battery and laser module (light emitting diode) to emit visible light beam, which is mainly used to accurately indicate the target at a long distance. In China, according to the degree of radiation hazard from low to high, laser products are divided into the following grades: class 1, class 1M, class 2, class 2M, class 3R, class 3B and class 4. The Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision pointed out that if laser products are not used properly, it will cause serious damage to human body, especially for products of 3R and above. Laser pens sold on the Internet usually have very high power and can even light matches, cigarettes, clothes and so on.

  The power is so high that it can ignite clothes. If you irradiate your eyes, the consequences can be imagined. According to experts, due to the characteristics of eye imaging, when the laser passes through the eye, it will be focused on a very small point on the retina, which will lead to an instantaneous increase in temperature and destroy the photosensitive cells of the retina. If the laser energy is strong enough, it will cause permanent damage without causing blink reflex (usually less than 1 second). It should be noted that low-power laser may also cause harm to eyes, and some high-intensity lasers still do great harm to eyes even after scattering from the surface of objects. Children in the developmental stage have delicate eye tissues and thin retinas, which are more vulnerable to injury.

  Laser pointer will not only cause direct damage to eyes, but also interfere with normal vision, which may lead to other accidents. For example, illuminating vehicles, airplanes, etc. with a laser pen may affect the normal vision of drivers and pilots and cause serious accidents.

  Of course, the laser pen is not unusable, but should be used scientifically and safely. According to different use occasions and users, the laser pen with corresponding radiation level should be carefully selected. The Defective Product Management Center of the General Administration of Market Supervision reminds that laser pen products can be used in situations such as classroom teaching and conference explanation. The laser in children’s toys should meet the requirements of Class 1 laser radiation power limit.

  "The laser pens sold as toys in the market are mostly higher than this limit, which has great security risks and cannot be bought and played for children." The defective product management center of the General Administration of Market Supervision stressed.

Can Aouita from Huawei enter the channel of Yu Chengdong?

Wen | Lu Jiu Business Review

There are more and more new energy vehicles with Huawei as their selling point, from the polar fox to the world and then to Aouita. 

Lu Jiu Business Review learned that Aouita will start a test drive in the near future. In early September, its mass production vehicles will arrive one after another, and a centralized test drive meeting will be held in Beijing. At present, the shops in Aouita are still displaying non-mass production engineering vehicles.

Aouita’s official entry into the market will mark the emergence of another car company that has deeply branded Huawei.

However, the biggest question now is: Can Aouita enter Huawei’s sales network and enjoy the same treatment as the media? After all, Aouita now has too few stores of its own, only 11.

According to national business daily, Tan Benhong, CEO of Aouita, said in an interview, "We are talking about the way of channel cooperation with Huawei, but not on behalf of sales. When the scale of our channels has not been fully reached, (Huawei) will help us, but it is not a substitute."

However, everyone who knows Huawei knows that Huawei’s terminal belongs to Yu Chengdong’s sphere of influence, while Aouita’s cooperation is Xu Zhijun on the platform.

How much weight does Aouita have in Huawei?

Since its birth, Aouita has always brought its own aura and attracted much attention. 

According to public information, Aouita was jointly built by Changan, Huawei and Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited. Changan led the vehicle design and development, Huawei was responsible for intelligent electric technology, while Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited was responsible for providing batteries. The three companies jointly built a CHN platform to empower Aouita.

However, it is strange that there is no Huawei among the shareholders of Aouita Company.

According to Aiqicha’s data, Aouita Science and Technology (Chongqing) Co., Ltd. is backed by eight companies, including Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited, Chongqing Changan and Shanghai Weilai. The capital contribution of Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited is RMB 280 million, Chongqing Changan is RMB 275 million and Weilai is RMB 13.3 million.

I didn’t see the shadow of Huawei, that is to say, in Aouita’s case, Huawei only gave technology and didn’t pay.

There is a big difference between Aouita’s external release and the press. Whether it is the strategic signing conference of Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited, Huawei and Changan Automobile, or the Chongqing Auto Show on June 25th, the specifications attended are quite high. In addition to Tan Benhong, Chairman of Aouita, Zhu Huarong, Chairman of Changan Automobile, Xu Zhijun, Chairman of Huawei, and Zeng Yuqun, Chairman of Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited often come out of the platform.

In addition, Aouita’s product launch can also show another clue.

At the Aouita 11 product launch conference on August 8th, Tan Benhong, the chairman, came out to introduce Aouita 11, and three bosses stood on the platform by video.

In contrast, the press conferences of M5 and M7 were introduced by Huawei’s Yu Chengdong as the leading actor, and Selis’s presence was not high.

On June 25th, when Aouita signed a comprehensive strategic cooperation agreement with Huawei, Chi Linchun, president of BU Marketing and Sales Service Department of Huawei’s smart car solution, said that Aouita was the heavyweight model of Huawei’s full-stack smart car solution.

According to Lu Jiu’s business review, before and after the product launch on August 8th, Wang Jun, chief operating officer of Huawei BU and president of intelligent driving solution product line, also visited Chongqing Times Tianjie Experience Center in Aouita and introduced Aouita 11.

In terms of leadership specifications, Xu Zhijun, the rotating chairman of Huawei, endorsed the platform, and the relevant person in charge of Che BU also came forward to promote it vigorously; In the depth of cooperation, Aouita and Huawei have cooperated heavily in the whole stack, and Aouita also has the trademark authorization of Huawei HI, but whether Aouita can enter the Huawei channel has not been confirmed.

Previously, the media reported one after another that the two sides were actively implementing the preparations for entering their store channels. On August 30, national business daily reported that Tan Benhong said: "We are talking about the way of channel cooperation with Huawei, but not on behalf of sales. It is when the number and scale of our channels have not been fully reached, (Huawei) will help us, but it is not a substitute."

Lu Jiu’s business review found that the so-called two sides are actively implementing the store channel, which was unilaterally announced by Aouita, and Huawei has never spoken to the outside world.

Intriguingly, we haven’t seen the shadow of Yu Chengdong in the cooperation activities between Huawei and Aouita.

On important occasions such as cooperation signing and press conference in Aouita, Xu Zhijun, rotating chairman of Huawei, and heads of various departments of Auto BU attended, but Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei BG, CEO of smart car solution BU and director of IRB of smart terminal and smart car parts, never showed up.

Lu Jiu’s business review noted that there was a similar situation in the cooperation with BAIC. Huawei cooperated with BAIC very early, and signed a contract in 2017, and then signed three contracts. Huawei was mainly attended by Xu Zhijun and Wang Jun, and Yu Chengdong never showed up. Yu Chengdong didn’t appear until the release of Alpha S, the polar fox. Yu Chengdong attended the cooperation between Huawei and the international community.

Therefore, do Aouita and Wen Jie belong to different spheres of influence within Huawei?

"China content" is high, but it can’t enter the Huawei channel?

Huawei’s channels have always made car companies drool.

On the evening of September 1st, according to Sellers’ production and sales express, the sales of Jiejie automobile, which cooperated with Huawei, exceeded 10,000 in August.

Asking for big sales is inseparable from Huawei’s channel empowerment.

According to public data, as of August 25, there were 781 sales centers in 190 cities, including 163 user centers and 618 Huawei sales stores.

Huawei also regards its own channels as an important part of empowering automobile brands. According to the data learned by Lujiu Business Review in Huawei in July, Huawei has 12 flagship stores, 116 smart life houses, 5,000 authorized experience stores and more than 60,000 retail positions. Importantly, these stores are all in shopping centers, which are highly matched with the demand of new energy automobile stores.

Whether it can enter Huawei’s sales channels or not, for a long time, there has been no exact news from Aouita, and the caliber of store sales is different.

The salesperson of a Huawei store in Beijing believes that it is impossible for Aouita to sell through Huawei’s channels. "People are an independent brand, and Huawei is the model of HUEWEI Inside. Huawei is only its supplier, so it is impossible to sell through Huawei’s channels."

Aouita’s Suzhou sales staff also said that it is impossible for Aouita to sell in Huawei stores for the same reason as Huawei stores. "Because Aouita is a brand new brand, it will still sell itself."

"Our major shareholders are Changan and Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited, and Huawei is not a major shareholder. Why do you sell it in his store?" The person in charge of Aouita’s Beijing sales store said.

"Huawei actually doesn’t have a few good shops. Many people want to buy Huawei mobile phones. They will search Huawei’s stores in the shopping malls and go directly. Huawei stores don’t have to find the location of big passengers. But the car is different. The new brand still needs a big passenger flow position to attract customers to see the car. " The person in charge of Aouita Suzhou Store said.

Although it is indicated that the channel will not borrow Huawei, the sales in Aouita emphasize the relationship with Huawei and their own "Chinese content".

"We use a complete set of HUAWEI Inside solutions, including car systems, assisted driving, laser radar, as well as Huawei’s motors and Huawei’s drive system. Now there is no second company in the industry that has such a deep cooperation with Huawei." The sales person in charge of the Beijing store said. He believes that the cooperation between Huawei and the international community is not as deep as that of Aouita.

In order to strengthen the content of Chinese, the Suzhou store manager particularly emphasized the hierarchical relationship between Yu Chengdong (pushing the question circle) and Xu Zhijun (platform Aouita). "Huawei’s boss platform is only Aouita. After our conference, many people asked why there was no Yu Chengdong, but later found out that Yu Chengdong’s level was actually lower than Xu Zhijun."

Behind Aouita and Wen Jie

In a phone minutes of Huawei’s in-depth interpretation of intelligent driving, Huawei introduced that there are three modes of cooperation: Tier1 (traditional parts supplier mode, supplying intelligent parts for car companies), HI mode (Huawei Inside mode) and intelligent selection mode.

Among them, Huawei’s intelligent selection mode is the fastest, because almost the layout of the whole vehicle is coordinated by Huawei, and the gross profit contributed by the intelligent selection mode is relatively high. In contrast, "HI mode will have less gross profit, because the cost of HI mode itself is high, but the pricing cannot be particularly high."

According to the data, the current cooperation between BAIC and Huawei is HI mode, and may consider participating in the intelligent selection mode in the future. Moreover, there are many car factories that cooperate with Huawei in HI mode, including GAC and Audi.

According to this summary, HI mode is the main mode of ADS (Huawei Autopilot). But HI is not the most prominent module for intelligent selection. Therefore, from the perspective of the entire car BU, Huawei currently attaches the most importance to smart selection, while ADS attaches the most importance to HI.

Based on these paragraphs, we can see that the gross profit of HI mode is low, and Huawei pays more attention to smart selection, which may be the reason why Aouita has made slow progress in entering Huawei’s channel.

Moreover, the autopilot data of the model will be open to Huawei, but in HI mode, the cooperative manufacturers will carry the corresponding data in their own data closed loop and will not share it with Huawei.

In the cooperation mode, the intelligent selection mode is far from the HI mode.

Lu Jiu’s business review learned that Huawei Automotive Intelligent Selection and HI belonged to different departments at the earliest.

In May 2019, Huawei’s Smart Car Business Unit (IAS BU) was formally established. This department was originally affiliated to the ICT Management Committee, with Wang Jun as its president and Xu Zhijun as its top leader. On September 2, 2021, Huawei was re-appointed, and Yu Chengdong became the CEO of Huawei’s smart car solution BU.

Prior to this, Huawei’s smart cockpit business belonged to IAS BU, HiCar, vehicle-mounted 5G communication and other businesses, belonging to the consumer business group and under the control of Yu Chengdong. Huawei combined these two businesses into one, and both of them were placed under Yu Chengdong. According to the analysis of people familiar with the situation, the main purpose of this move is to improve the implementation and operational efficiency within the group.

The source said that the earliest signing subjects of Huawei’s cooperation with BAIC and Aouita were Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.; And the cooperation with Xiaokang Sailis, the signing subject is Huawei Terminal Co., Ltd.. Behind this are two companies.

Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., which provides software and hardware solutions, has a great weight in HI mode, and is the business that Xu Zhijun was in charge of before; The Huawei terminal resource Hicar Huawei Intelligent Selection is led by Yu Chengdong and belongs to the consumer BG. Although it is now under the control of Yu Chengdong, there is inevitably a difference in the relationship between "biological and adoption".

Whether Huawei’s full-stack car solutions can be sold in Huawei’s terminal channels depends on Yu Chengdong.

Huawei has a rotating chairman system. During the rotating period, the rotating chairman is the top leader of the company. Each rotating chairman has a term of six months, so it is difficult to have a lasting influence on the following departments. Therefore, whether the channel sells Aouita or not depends on Yu Chengdong.

About cars, Xu Zhijun and Yu Chengdong have different ideas, which are on the table and have been reported by the media. Yu Chengdong wants to build a car, but Xu Zhijun doesn’t want to build a car.

It is Yu Chengdong’s specialty to engage in consumer business. Huawei has so many channels that it has great advantages in making cars. However, if Huawei goes out on its own, car companies will be more jealous, and Huawei’s car solutions will be even harder to sell. This business was in the charge of Xu Zhijun before.

Rong Hui, former vice president of Beijing Automotive Group New Technology Research Institute and CEO of Huihui Technology, once revealed that Huawei’s smart car solution will cost about 40,000 pieces in cooperation with Huawei. He estimated that Huawei’s profit will be at least 15,000 pieces.

How much can Huawei earn by selling a car?

According to media reports, according to the information disclosed by Huawei executives before, the share between Huawei and Sellers is about 1:9, and the price of M5 is around 300,000. Huawei can get 30,000 for a car, of which 20% is the technology licensing fee, which is about 6,000 yuan, and the rest is the store income.

HI mode Huawei earns a lot, but the investment in intelligent driving research and development has been very large, and many car companies are jealous of Huawei. In contrast, the smart selection model is easy to earn, and car companies are also willing. Huawei was blocked by the United States, and there was no mobile phone to sell in the store. With a car, it just met the shopkeepers who had no goods to sell.

In August, in an article in Huawei’s internal forum, "The management policy of the whole company should shift from pursuing scale to pursuing profit and cash flow", Ren Zhengfei mentioned that smart car solutions should not spread a complete front, and it is necessary to reduce the research budget and strengthen the business closed loop.

Huawei BU has invested a lot in autonomous driving. To achieve a closed-loop business, it is obvious that the pressure of intelligent selection mode is less.

Self-built channels are difficult to support sales.

So far, there are only 11 stores in Aouita.

On August 8, 2022, when a press conference was held in Aouita, Tan Benhong said that the first batch of sales centers in Aouita will land in 10 cities and will officially open on August 8. This year, experience centers and service outlets will be stationed in 100 cities.

On September 1st, Lujiu Business Review was found in official website, Aouita. It is still the original 10 cities, and there are two in Chongqing, with a total of 11 direct stores. According to interviews and telephone calls, most of these stores opened in August. The person in charge of Suzhou sales told Lu Jiu Business Review that the Suzhou store only has an outreach booth at present, and the store will not open until October.

Offline stores have a great impetus to automobile sales, and the speed of building offline stores in Aouita is somewhat slow.

Although new energy car companies are now learning Tesla and booking cars online, offline experience stores are extremely important support. Without the experience of offline stores, it is difficult for car owners to book cars directly online.

Li Xiang once said that with or without stores in a city, the market share will be eight times different.

According to public reports, by September, 2022, LI had 265 retail stores covering 118 cities in China, and 316 after-sales maintenance centers and authorized car body and painting centers covering 226 cities. Weilai official website shows that Weilai has 402 service outlets nationwide.

Just eleven stores, certainly difficult to support Aouita’s ambition, the number of existing stores is far from enough.

As early as June this year, Aouita said that in terms of channels, it will adopt the modes of self-construction and partner joining, and plans to cover 110 cities in the year, and simultaneously promote the entry into Huawei stores.

But now it seems that this progress is a bit slow.

Large shopping centers are currently the best choice for new energy car companies to sell stores. However, it will not be fast to find a suitable shop in the shopping center, negotiate with the shopping center, decorate and move in.

Changan Automobile, behind Aouita, can’t help in the channel. First of all, Aouita is an independent company, and Changan Automobile is not a major shareholder. In addition, the main channel of Chang ‘an is in 4S stores, and the tonality of new energy vehicles owned by Chang ‘an is quite different from that of Aouita.

According to the survey of CMB International Securities, the ability of shopping centers to absorb new energy sales stores is also limited. First, because the stores of new energy auto companies are on the ground floor, the supply area is limited. In addition, new energy auto stores do not contribute much to passenger flow, so shopping centers must maintain the correct combination to increase passenger flow.

"When you go to the mall now, you can see that as long as there is a large flow of people, cars are basically contracted. Now the better bunks have actually been chosen almost, and it is more difficult to find a berth now. " The person in charge of the Suzhou store told Lu Jiu Business Review on the phone.

Since it is difficult to support the ideal sales volume by its own channels at present, Huawei’s channels are more and more important for Aouita. Can we get in or not? Aouita and the industry are waiting for Huawei’s answer. How to coordinate the resources between HI mode and Smart Choice mode and build Huawei’s core competence in the new energy automobile industry? This is also a proposition that Huawei must face seriously.

Lei Jun: Xiaomi Auto SU7 Wireless CarPlay is expected to be pushed by OTA in early May.

IT House reported on April 18th that Lei Jun, the founder and chairman of Xiaomi, started broadcasting at Xiaomi Auto Delivery Center today, and "talked with netizens about the sale of Xiaomi SU7 these days".

Lei Jun gave a more specific timetable when answering the netizen’s question "When will the wireless CarPlay function of Xiaomi SU7 go online": it is expected to get on the bus through OTA in early May.

Lei Jun asked the team to push OTA upgrade at least once a month, and planned to open NOA in 10 regions to users at the end of May and push NOA to the whole country in August.

Lei Jun also revealed that the current model plan of Xiaomi Automobile belongs to the confidential stage, and there is no plan to make an off-road vehicle. When talking about this topic, Lei Jun said that the Great Wall brand off-road vehicles have done a good job.

In addition, Lei Jun believes that if Xiaomi SU7 fails, it will definitely be caused by three reasons: cognitive error, inertia thinking and idol burden.

According to the previous report of IT House, Xiaomi Auto’s iPad car control function has been launched. Just go to the Apple App Store to search and download the "Xiaomi Auto Expansion Screen" app, and after connecting the car hotspots, you can enjoy the seat air conditioning adjustment, multimedia adjustment, audio-visual entertainment and other native car-like experiences. Lei Jun once said that Apple users also have a good experience in driving Xiaomi cars, and Xiaomi smart cockpit is compatible with Apple wireless AirPlay and Carplay.

Xiaomi Auto Mysterious Leak, Insider Reveal!

The secret leak of Xiaomi automobile caused a heated discussion, and a fine of 3 million will become a reality? Recently, Xiaomi Automobile suffered a secret leak and continued to ferment. The media and individuals involved successively issued statements and disclosed the details of the leak. Although some people regard this as a marketing tool, we should pay more attention to how to treat confidentiality agreements and think about the criteria for disclosing information. Relevant persons of Xiaomi Automobile have confirmed the leaked media, and will be held accountable according to the confidentiality agreement, with a fine of up to RMB 3 million. However, no party made a statement in this incident. Until last night, Xiaomi issued a statement identifying relevant media and internal employees. This incident highlights the importance of confidentiality, and Xiaomi’s "leakage history" can not be ignored, involving information leakage in many aspects such as price, configuration, battery and store decoration.

So, how did the secret leak of Xiaomi Automobile happen? The media involved leaked the shooting content of Xiaomi Automobile without permission, which led to the leak. Relevant persons of Xiaomi Automobile said that they have locked in the leaked media and will pursue the responsibility according to the Confidentiality Commitment Letter of RMB 3 million signed by the confidentiality agreement. This move once again highlights the importance of confidentiality agreements and the seriousness of leaking secrets. Leaking has a great impact on the business interests and reputation of enterprises, so it is particularly urgent to protect business secrets. In the public statement, Xiaomi Automobile pointed out the involved media and internal employees, and emphasized its serious attitude towards confidentiality responsibility.

The employees of the media involved still disclose the contents of the confidential shooting after signing the Confidentiality Commitment, and this behavior will be subject to corresponding accountability and punishment, including public apology and fines. This move sends a clear signal to the outside world: once you violate the confidentiality agreement, you will face severe legal sanctions. Xiaomi Automobile also demonstrated its determination to strictly enforce the confidentiality agreement through this move. The "leak history" of Xiaomi Automobile can not be ignored. As early as the beginning of this year, the media broke the news about the price, configuration, battery and other aspects of Xiaomi’s first new car, which seriously damaged the business interests of the company. The leakage of this information not only disturbs the market order, but also affects the normal operation of enterprises.

Protecting trade secrets is not only an internal management problem of enterprises, but also the need to maintain market order and fair competition. The importance of confidentiality agreement is self-evident, and how to better implement confidentiality work is also a problem that enterprises need to seriously consider. Strengthening the training and publicity of employees’ confidentiality awareness, establishing a sound confidentiality management system, and implementing strict supervision and accountability for violations of confidentiality agreements are all measures that enterprises can take. At the same time, strengthening communication with the media and improving the media’s attention and understanding of confidentiality are also important links for enterprises to protect trade secrets. The leak reminds us once again that the importance of protecting trade secrets cannot be ignored. Enterprises and the media should face up to confidentiality agreements, strengthen the attention and management of confidentiality work, and jointly safeguard market order and a fair competition environment.

Then, in your opinion, what other experiences and practices can enterprises learn from in protecting trade secrets? Welcome to leave a message to share your opinion. Xiaomi Automobile Storm: Frequent leaks have caused concern that Xiaomi Group is preparing to enter the automobile industry, which has caused heated discussions in the industry. However, with the continuous exposure of relevant information, the design and cooperation details of Xiaomi Automobile have frequently become the focus of public attention. The occurrence of a series of leaks has caused concern and speculation about Xiaomi Automobile inside and outside the industry. On February 2nd, a spokesman of Xiaomi Company reported the handling result of a leak incident, claiming that the early design draft of the front and rear bumpers of Xiaomi Automobile Co., Ltd. in Beijing was leaked due to poor management.

Xiaomi Group said that it had dealt with the involved partners seriously according to the confidentiality agreement, including imposing economic compensation of 1 million yuan, demanding to strengthen information security management and deal with the leaked perpetrators seriously, and instructing to formulate detailed rectification plans and comprehensively upgrade confidentiality measures. At the same time, Xiaomi Group has shown a "zero tolerance" attitude towards the leak, and hopes that all supplier partners will conscientiously implement the confidentiality agreement. The result of this incident triggered public concern and discussion on Xiaomi’s security measures. In July of this year, a blogger posted a photo of suspected battery information of Xiaomi car on social media, which triggered a heated discussion among the public about information about Xiaomi car. On November 3, another blogger broke the news that he met the "skeleton" of Xiaomi car on the road and described some details of the vehicle.

However, this information was also taken off the shelves for allegedly leaking business secrets, which triggered doubts about Xiaomi’s information confidentiality. In addition to leaks, information about Xiaomi Auto is frequently exposed on social media. Some car bloggers released the design picture of Xiaomi MS11, the first model of Xiaomi Automobile, and the details of cooperation between Xiaomi and BAIC, which triggered a hot discussion on the Internet. In response to these exposure incidents, Wang Hua, general manager of the public relations department of Xiaomi Group, responded that the leaked documents are indeed confidential design documents of secondary suppliers, and they are the design drafts of the very early bidding process, not the final documents. The exposure of this series of information has aroused the public’s expectation and curiosity about Xiaomi Automobile, and also questioned the confidentiality of Xiaomi Automobile.

In addition, Xiaomi’s mobile phone has also suffered many leaks, and some leakers have been claimed for millions. The exposure of the decoration plan of Xiaomi Home Direct Store shows that the area where Xiaomi car is displayed has also aroused public concern about Xiaomi car. The constant occurrence of these leaks has undoubtedly intensified the public’s speculation and concern about Xiaomi Automobile. To sum up, Xiaomi Auto has attracted much attention, but it has also frequently become the focus of leaks. Xiaomi Group’s serious handling of leaks reflects its emphasis on information confidentiality. However, frequent leaks undoubtedly cast a shadow over the development of Xiaomi Automobile. In the face of constantly exposed information and leaks, how will Xiaomi Automobile ensure the confidentiality of information in the future? At the same time, how will the public’s speculation and expectation of Xiaomi Automobile affect the development direction of Xiaomi Automobile?

It is hoped that Xiaomi Automobile can adopt stricter information confidentiality measures to ensure that the future development can continue to move forward in the public’s expectation and attention. What do you think and suggest about this? Let me know! Xiaomi’s mobile phone leaks frequently, and the interest game and moral boundary behind it. Today, the competition in the technology industry is becoming more and more fierce, which is followed by many incidents about product leaks. Recently, the leak related to Xiaomi’s mobile phone has aroused widespread concern. From Xiaomi 10 Extreme Commemorative Edition to Xiaomi MIX4, a series of information is exposed in advance, which makes us wonder what kind of interest game and moral boundary are hidden behind these leaks? In the digital age, the release of mobile phone products has attracted much attention.

A teardown video, a subway photo and a PDF document, seemingly harmless leaks may affect the company’s business plan, marketing strategy and even the stock price. After many product leaks, Xiaomi Company not only sued the relevant bloggers and claimed millions of dollars, but also obtained corresponding compensation through the Arbitration Commission. After the leak was exposed, bloggers also issued apology statements and assumed corresponding responsibilities. This series of events has caused people to think deeply about the leaking behavior: what caused these events? Who will be the beneficiary of the leak? First, let’s look at the time nodes of these leaks. From Xiaomi 10 Extreme Commemorative Edition to Xiaomi MIX4, as well as the upcoming Xiaomi car, leaks always happen one after another on the eve of product release.

Does this mean that the leak is a pre-heating marketing tool? Or is it malicious speculation by competitors? Does the frequent occurrence of these incidents mean that there is a more complicated interest game in the industry? We can’t help but ask, what kind of impact will the interest dispute behind it have on consumers? Secondly, we need to re-examine the moral boundary behind the leak. The competition in science and technology industry is fierce, and information confidentiality between enterprises is particularly important. Leaking may not only reveal the product design and hardware configuration, but also damage the company’s business reputation and interests. In the information age, the definition of moral boundary becomes particularly important. What factors have driven these bloggers to abandon the moral bottom line? Who will be their supporters?

In this wave of leaks, the bloggers related to Xiaomi Company and its product leaks have become the focus. On the one hand, Xiaomi Company has safeguarded its own interests and trade secrets through legal channels; On the other hand, bloggers also bear corresponding responsibilities through apology and compensation. However, leaks are frequent, and it seems that only legal and moral sanctions can’t completely solve the problem. We need to think more about what drove these events. Who is silently supporting all this? To sum up, the competition in the technology industry is fierce, and the frequent product leaks have undoubtedly brought many influences to enterprises and consumers. We need to think more about what caused these events. Who will be the beneficiary of the leak?

We expect that the technology industry can find a more reasonable way of competition while fierce competition, so that consumers can understand products more clearly, and we also expect more relevant people to stand up and jointly safeguard the fairness and justice of the industry. What is your opinion on this issue? Welcome to leave a message to share with us. The preheating method of Xiaomi Automobile has caused controversy. Recently, the preheating method of Xiaomi Automobile has once again triggered a heated discussion among netizens. Some netizens think that the preheating method of Xiaomi car belongs to the old routine and seems to be self-directed. They pointed out that this situation is not uncommon in the field of electronics and technology products, and many games and other mobile phone brands have also had leaks. What are the reasons for these leaks? Why is it common for Xiaomi’s products to leak?

Is there any leak related to marketing preheating? Let’s explore these issues together. Leaks occur frequently, probably because manufacturers invite some media to take photos in advance before releasing their products, and then release these photos after the press conference. However, some media may be too competitive, unable to resist showing off and want to get a head start, which leads to the leakage of product information. This has also led us to take the confidentiality agreement seriously and think about the distinction between disclosure and confidential content. After all, some pre-emptive information, whether deliberately released by enterprises or leaked by others, needs to be treated with caution. After all, safety always comes first, and we should also protect our own money bags. At present, the attention of Xiaomi Automobile is not low, and the competition between the media is also fierce.

Therefore, we might as well believe that this is not a marketing warm-up, but a leak caused by competitive pressure. I hope Xiaomi Automobile can get better sales after its official release. To sum up, the leak may have occurred because of the excessive competitive pressure, and the media failed to resist showing off or wanted to get a head start. We need to be more careful about the confidentiality agreement and the distinction between disclosure and confidential content. Finally, we have to think about how to find a balance in the highly competitive market, not only to meet the needs of consumers, but also to protect the confidential information of enterprises. What do you think of this?

With a price of $11.5 per share and a total market value of $9.724 billion, LI wants to ring the bell on the American Stock Exchange with Li (LI).

Text | Car Story Green Lemon

At 21: 00 on July 30th, Beijing time, the LI built by Li Xiang was officially listed on NASDAQ. The issue price is $11.5 per share, with a total market value of $9.724 billion, 95 million shares in circulation and 846 million shares in total. LI became the second new car-making force to successfully IPO in the United States after Weilai.

It is reported that the subscription of LI in the pre-listing period was very good, which not only ended the subscription in advance, but also rang the bell on Nasdaq one day earlier.

At 21: 00 p.m. on July 30th, Beijing time, LI was officially listed on NASDAQ. The stock code is LI, and the issue price is $1.15/share. The pre-market value is $9.724 billion, the circulating market value is 1.092 billion yuan, the circulating share capital is 95 million shares, and the total share capital is 846 million shares.

So far, apart from Weilai, LI has become the second new car-making force to successfully go public in the United States. At the same time, for Li Xiang, the founder, his second personal entrepreneurial project was listed on Nasdaq after the car.

In fact, since the day LI was born, IPO has been no secret, but what has not been confirmed is where it will be chosen.

It was not until July 10th this year that LI officially submitted a prospectus to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of the United States, and the listing location was really hammered.

According to this prospectus, in terms of ownership structure, LI is divided into A shares and B shares. Among them, Li Xiang, as the largest natural person shareholder in LI, holds about 356 million A and B shares, accounting for about 25.1% of the total share capital and having 70.3% of the voting rights; Wang Xing (and Meituan) is the second largest shareholder in LI, holding 332 million A shares, accounting for 23.5% of the total share capital, but only 9.3% of the voting rights; Shen Yanan, co-founder and president of LI, holds 1.1% A shares and has 0.4% voting rights; Li Tie, the co-founder and CFO, holds 1.0% of A shares and has 0.4% of voting rights.

In addition, in terms of institutional shareholding, Amp Lee Ltd (which Li wants to enjoy through trust) holds 25.1% of Class A shares; Zijin Global Fund holds 8.9% shares and has 3.5% voting rights; Rainbow Six Limited holds 6.1% shares and has 2.4% voting rights; Inspired Elite Investments Limited (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Meituan) holds 14.5% of the shares and has 5.8% of the voting rights.

Through the AB-share structure design, Li wants to achieve absolute control over LI. This is also conducive to the flat operation of this innovative company in the operation process and helps to achieve extremely fast response.

Based on the calculation of initial public offering, LI raised 1,092.5 million US dollars. For this fund, LI said in the prospectus earlier that it will be used for the research and development of new products and the company’s working capital.

According to sales data, in the second quarter of this year, LI delivered a total of 6,604 new cars, an increase of 128% compared with 2,896 in the first quarter. Its revenue in the second quarter also increased by 128.6% compared with the first quarter. The gross profit margin increased from 8% in the first quarter to 13.3% in the second quarter.

Better-than-expected data also made investors optimistic about LI.

Just at the time of LI’s official listing tonight, Jingwei Zhang Ying said on the social platform: "Congratulations to Li Xiang, congratulations to the ideal. For early investors, the most important thing is always people, and excellent founders are greater than everything."

As the main investor of LI A round, Cao Yi, the founding partner of the source code, also said in an interview: "The huge industry, the big bottom changes are gestating, the S-class entrepreneurs, the excellent business natural attributes, etc. are all in LI. You can see it on this company."

Of course, listing is only a phased goal in the initial stage of LI’s Long March. Its achievement does not mean that LI can breathe a sigh of relief. There are still more problems waiting for Li Xiang (LI) in product quality control, new vehicle research and development, and the expansion of intelligent network. In addition, compared with the product side, how to improve the soft power of the server also tests the comprehensive strength of how LI grabs orders from competing products.

  The COVID-19 epidemic has had a great impact on consumption in China in the first quarter of this year. The data shows that from January to February, the total retail sales of consumer goods nationwide decreased by 20.5% year-on-year. However, in the "home" life and "cloud" life, the sales of some consumer electronic products have increased against the trend, which has become a bright color when consumption is cold in the short term. Green consumer products represented by electronic products are helping to boost consumption and consumption upgrading.

  Electronic products sell well against the trend

  "Kindle reader, Bluetooth speaker … …” Zach Li, an engineer working in Beijing, found that he spent the most on electronic products besides daily necessities such as rice, oil and salt.

  "Reading, games and music are all long-term learning and entertainment activities for epidemic prevention at home, and these electronic products make it long and boring ‘ Zhai ’ Life adds interest. " Zach Li said.

  When consumption was cold due to the epidemic, "cloud life" drove the sales of some consumer electronic products to increase greatly, and the supply of emerging products continued to increase, allowing many new formats to develop against the trend.

  Statistics from the National Bureau of Statistics show that from January to February this year, the demand for electronic products such as 3D printing equipment, smart watches and smart bracelets increased rapidly, and the output increased significantly year-on-year, with growth rates of 101.0%, 119.7% and 45.1% respectively. The growth momentum of emerging kinetic energy has not changed.

  On several major e-commerce platforms, the sales of electronic products have also increased. In February, notebook computers, tablet computers, printers and smart cameras became hot items on e-commerce platforms such as Suning.cn and JD.COM, and some products were even out of stock. Perhaps it is precisely because of the new consumer demand generated by the epidemic that many consumer electronics companies choose to release their new products in the near future. Among them, Apple recently launched a new tablet iPad Pro and computer Macbook Air, which received wide attention.

  Smartphones hit bottom and rebounded.

  The situation of epidemic prevention and control in China continues to improve, and the consumer market is recovering with the warm spring. At the same time, related enterprises have also actively launched "self-help".

  In the field of smart phones, the rebound and recovery of consumption are more obvious. Previously, affected by the epidemic, many mobile phone manufacturers closed their factories, and normal mobile phone production could not be guaranteed. Under the background of the whole society’s resumption of work and production, the mobile phone industry is increasing its productivity, and the output is gradually approaching the normal level. Recently, many mobile phone manufacturers, such as Huawei, have said that they are fully restoring the supply chain to ensure market supply.

  A person in charge of a mobile phone manufacturer said that from the sales performance at the beginning of March, the sales volume of smart phones in China has approached or even exceeded the same period last year. Industry insiders predict that the domestic 5G smartphone market is expected to resume its growth momentum in the second quarter of this year.

  While increasing horsepower to ensure production, the release of new machines by major manufacturers has also been carried out one after another. Since late February, the listing speed of new 5G mobile phones has obviously accelerated. According to the data of China Information and Communication Research Institute, there were 16 new models listed in February this year, including 11 5G mobile phones. Recently, Huawei held an online conference to release three P40 series mobile phones to the world — — P40, P40 Pro and P40 Pro+. It is worth mentioning that this model is equipped with the HMS Apps terminal cloud service ecosystem independently developed by Huawei.

  Experts said that in the fields covered by "new infrastructure", 5G is considered to be the top priority, and the industrial chain extended by 5G will also be rapidly driven. Thanks to the acceleration of "new infrastructure", the construction of 5G infrastructure and the improvement of 5G communication environment will further stimulate the recovery of the industry and promote the arrival of the "replacement tide" of 5G mobile phones.

  Create a new consumption format

  In order to better release the new consumption potential, in recent days, the central and local governments have successively introduced a series of measures to promote consumption to promote consumption in electronic products and other fields.

  A few days ago, the National Development and Reform Commission and other 23 departments jointly issued the "Implementation Opinions on Promoting Consumption Expansion and Upgrading to Accelerate the Formation of a Strong Domestic Market", increased support for electronic products and other fields, and proposed to encourage green smart consumption, accelerate the improvement of recycling networks in the fields of home appliances and consumer electronic products, and encourage enterprises to use technologies such as the Internet of Things, big data and artificial intelligence to promote the intelligent upgrading of various electronic products.

  At the same time, many governments have accelerated the introduction of preferential measures to encourage green and smart consumption and promote product upgrading through measures such as issuing consumer subsidies and replacing old electronic products with new ones. Many e-commerce platforms have also launched promotional activities such as home appliances and electronic products.

  Experts said that in this COVID-19 epidemic, new consumption formats and new consumption models represented by electronic products showed strong growth potential. With the progress of science and technology and the acceleration of the updating of consumption concepts, the upgrading and intelligent upgrading of electronic consumer goods and other products will enter a fast-paced stage. How to cultivate and grow the new consumption and upgrading consumption power generated by the epidemic, and how to realize the long-term development of short-term products is a new test faced by the government and enterprises, which is of great significance for stimulating the formation of new kinetic energy and promoting steady economic growth.

General Administration of Market Supervision: Ten Characteristics of Consumer Complaints in 2022

  Cctv newsAccording to the website of the General Administration of Market Supervision, in 2022, the national market supervision departments received a total of 29.4077 million consumer complaints, reports and inquiries through the national 12315 platform, telephone, fax and windows, a year-on-year increase of 23.5%. Among them, there were 13,103,800 complaints and 4,722,300 reports, which saved economic losses of 4,519 million yuan for consumers and effectively protected their legitimate rights and interests. It mainly presents ten characteristics:

  First, the acceleration of consumer complaints, the recovery and expansion of consumption needs balanced development.

  From the trend of the past three years, due to the cross-regional expansion of platform economy, the cross-regional flow of population capital and the cross-regional allocation of market factors, the consumption of Guangdong, Zhejiang, Shanghai and Beijing is accelerating. There is a positive correlation between the number of consumer complaints and the level of consumer activity. The proportion of consumer complaints in the four provinces and cities in the country has increased from 31.8% in 2020 to 45.16% in 2022. To some extent, the accelerated gathering of consumer complaints reflects the unbalanced development of the supply side of consumption, so it is necessary to further restore and expand consumption in the central and western regions and promote higher quality and more balanced development.

  Second, recover the loss of over 10 billion yuan, boost confidence and release vitality.

  In the past three years, in the face of the impact of the epidemic, the downward pressure on the economy and the impact of the international situation, improving the consumption environment, stabilizing consumption and promoting consumption have become important supports for stabilizing the economic market and safeguarding people’s livelihood and well-being. Market supervision departments at all levels have handled a total of 74.5229 million complaints, reports and consultations, recovering economic losses of 14.472 billion yuan for consumers, effectively defending consumers’ legitimate rights and interests, and protecting consumption power and economic endogenous motivation. We will strengthen the maintenance of commodity services concerned by the masses. For example, the mediation success rate of fiber products, medical devices, production, maintenance and repair services has increased significantly compared with the previous year, with an increase of 15.51, 13.15 and 12.26 percentage points respectively.

  Through the continuous evaluation of "five-level circular linkage", the disposal efficiency of the national 12315 platform has been greatly improved. The timely handling rate of complaints and reports was as high as 98.99%, an increase of 12.55 percentage points; The highest satisfaction of the masses is 4.74 points (out of 5 points). At present, the platform has accumulated 16.0108 million registered users, with an average annual growth of 3 million, and has become a consumer rights protection platform trusted by the people.

  Three, rapid response, strong disposal, complaints and reports of epidemic-related materials fell rapidly.

  After the promulgation of "Article 20" and "New Article 10", the focus of epidemic prevention shifted from prevention and control of infection to medical treatment. The demand for epidemic-related drugs and medical supplies surged, the supply was not smooth, the price fluctuated abnormally, and product quality problems frequently occurred. At one time, the number of related complaints and reports increased by spurt. From November 10, 2022 to the end of 2022, the national 12315 platform received 241,100 related complaints and reports, up 3.88 times year-on-year, 2.95 times quarter-on-quarter, and the highest peak reached 19.5 times. Among them, there were 141,800 complaints and 99,300 reports, recovering economic losses of 4,981,700 yuan.

  The market supervision department responded quickly, launched a special campaign to stabilize the price and guarantee the quality of epidemic-related drugs and medical supplies at the first time, promptly checked the complaints and reports of epidemic-related drugs and medical supplies, and fully protected the health and safety of the people, with a total of 12,900 cases filed. As of February 10th, the reports on epidemic-related prices, unfair competition and advertisements, online transaction supervision, product quality, and the production and circulation of drugs and medical devices have dropped by 99.14%, 87.87%, 73.89%, 88.35% and 87.79% on an average daily basis, and the demands for epidemic-related drugs and medical supplies have returned to daily life, and the market order tends to be stable.

  Fourth, the downward pressure on the economy has increased, and after-sales problems such as non-delivery and non-refund have become more prominent.

  In 2022, the national market supervision department accepted 13.1038 million consumer complaints, a year-on-year increase of 43.84%, and the growth rate was enlarged compared with 2021. From the complaints, there were 2,987,000 pieces of quality, 2,489,600 pieces of after-sales service, 1,159,100 pieces of contract and 1,090,600 pieces of food safety, accounting for 58.96% of the total complaints. Among them, the problem of after-sales service grew fastest, and the masses reflected it most strongly, with a year-on-year increase of 57.67%.

  After-sales service status is directly related to operators’ confidence and expectation. Affected by the epidemic, the problem of after-sales service has been highlighted. Consumer demands mainly focus on non-refund, non-delivery, non-performance of the "three guarantees" commitment, non-implementation of the seven-day unreasonable return obligation, and untimely delivery. From the perspective of commodity categories, it is mainly concentrated in mobile phones, shoes, coats, furniture and automobiles, accounting for 25.61% in total; Printed matter, dairy products, computer peripherals, air conditioners and luggage increased by 154%, 120%, 98%, 98% and 90% respectively.

  Fifth, the proportion of commodity complaints increased, and the consumption of new energy vehicles was short-lived.

  In 2022, the national market supervision department accepted a total of 8,623,200 commodity complaints, accounting for 65.81% of the complaints, up 4.37 percentage points from the previous year; There were 4,480,600 service complaints, accounting for 34.19% of the complaints. The increase in the proportion of commodity complaints reflects the prominent product quality problems under the downward pressure of the real economy. Among them, the top complaints are: ordinary food, clothing, shoes and hats, household items, household appliances, transportation and communication products, accounting for 58.43%. The top service complaints are: catering, accommodation, sales, Internet services, culture, entertainment and sports, beauty salons and baths, accounting for 46.37%.

  It is worth noting that with the rapid increase in the penetration rate of new energy vehicles, consumers’ requirements for quality are also constantly improving. In 2022, the platform received 16,000 complaints and reports about new energy vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 62.84%. Among them, contract problems, quality problems and false propaganda problems grew rapidly, increasing by 126.33%, 77.35% and 75.65% respectively. Consumer demands focus on: imperfect after-sales service, failure to fulfill the "three guarantees" commitment; Sudden flameout, oil leakage, abnormal engine sound, brake steering failure and battery module damage during driving; Publish false information, induce consumers to sign unfair format clauses, and reduce the responsibility of car companies.

  Six, new consumption hotspots are constantly emerging, and the accompanying consumer disputes are rising.

  In recent years, "new consumption" is becoming the "accelerator" of economic development. While meeting the diversified needs of consumption, some new situations of infringement and new problems of rights protection are gradually exposed, reflecting the new pain points of consumer rights protection.

  In 2022, new model problems such as digital collection (NFT) rose, making supervision more difficult, with 59,700 related demands (only 198 in the previous year), mainly focusing on non-delivery, non-refund, malicious price gouging, high handling fees, and arbitrary closure of consumer accounts. Under the craze of "blind box", consumer demands reached 41,400 pieces, up 61.72% year-on-year. IP cross-border co-branded products set off a buying frenzy, with 38,100 related demands, up 66.96% year-on-year. Some merchants took the opportunity to raise prices, but the problems of uneven product quality, fake and shoddy products, delayed delivery and lack of after-sales service were outstanding. Behind the fiery outdoor sports such as camping, the demands for sunscreen products and mosquito-repellent products increased by 99.12% and 149.62% respectively. Ice and snow sports are popular, but the related demands are as high as 8677, up 60.51% year-on-year. The quality problems such as ski clothes and skis are outstanding, and the tickets, deposits and safety issues of ski resorts need urgent attention.

  Seven, online consumption continues to escalate, and consumer satisfaction still needs to be improved.

  With the continuous development of e-commerce in China, the epidemic situation catalyzes online consumption habits, and the online shopping field ranks "half of the country’s consumers’ demands". In 2022, the online shopping demand increased by 56.38% year-on-year, which mainly has three characteristics:

  (1) The format of "cloud consumption" has expanded rapidly, and complaints have grown rapidly.

  Various "cloud consumption" modes, such as live delivery, cross-border e-commerce, fresh e-commerce, online shopping, online entertainment, and private kitchen customization, have emerged, which has become a bright spot in the growth of weak consumption last year, but related demands are also rising. There were 220,900 requests for live broadcast with goods, up 1.15 times year-on-year and 5.01 times higher than that in 2020. There were problems such as no products, shoddy products and false propaganda. Cross-border e-commerce demands were 334,500, up 42.63% year-on-year and 1.47 times higher than that in 2020. The problems of negative after-sales service, failure to fulfill warranty commitments and counterfeiting of overseas products were prominent.

  (B) There are many new types of price fraud, and supervision and law enforcement are facing new challenges.

  Technologies such as big data algorithm of platform economy improve transaction efficiency, and it is also easy to induce new price fraud. The online shopping price demand was 106,700 pieces, up 99.03% year-on-year, which mainly included the problems of killing big data, changing trading conditions in real time, "marking low and closing high", concealing preferential threshold conditions, and the preferential treatment for non-members was greater than that for members, which brought higher challenges to the price supervision and law enforcement in the platform economy field.

  (C) Video membership service routines, consumer experience needs to be improved.

  At present, paid members have become the "standard" of video websites, but there is a lack of "standard" of member services, with 8534 related demands, up 103.82% year-on-year. The problems reflected by consumers mainly focus on: unreasonable advance on demand, suspected of repeated charges; The "free advertisement" is not honored, and the video is inserted with advertisements; The prompt of automatic renewal is not obvious, the way of cancellation is difficult to query, and consumers are easy to buy by mistake. Others rely on word games such as adjusting fees and changing rights to make up for losses and reduce users’ trust.

  Eight, "ODR" continued to expand, and diversified solutions to disputes steadily improved.

  Market supervision departments have vigorously promoted the construction of online consumer dispute resolution (ODR) mechanism, and the success rate of settlement and consumer satisfaction have made steady progress. 114,000 ODR enterprises have been developed in various places and settled in the national 12315 platform, and 3,094,800 disputes have been directly negotiated with consumers online. Compared with the traditional administrative mediation method, the average processing time is 7.69 days, which is greatly reduced by 14.2 days; The success rate of reconciliation increased by 11.25 percentage points; Covering 97% of cities, an increase of 2.36% over the previous year, fully releasing the institutional innovation advantages of ODR. On the whole, ODR’s social influence is constantly expanding, and the enthusiasm of market participants for voluntary participation is constantly improving, which has made a useful exploration for diversified solutions to consumer disputes and social co-governance.

  Nine, "sunshine" consumer complaint information, effectively strengthen the source of governance.

  The General Administration continued to promote the publicity of consumer complaint information, formulated a publicity system and built a publicity system, and launched pilot projects in some cities in Jilin, Guangdong, Sichuan and Xinjiang from November 2022. At present, 20,817 complaints from 14,114 enterprises have been publicized, effectively strengthening social supervision and credit constraints, and improving the transparency of the consumption environment, the integrity of operators and the satisfaction of consumers. After publicity, the success rate of complaint mediation in the pilot area increased by 8.39 percentage points compared with that before publicity and 5.97 percentage points compared with the same period of the previous year; The average complaint settlement time was 11.77 days, 2.17 days faster than the same period of the previous year; The consumer evaluation was 4.8 points (out of 5 points), 0.1 points higher than before publicity.

  X. Complaints and reports have become an important channel for discovering illegal clues, and the social supervision role of consumers continues to emerge.

  Consumers actively played the role of social supervision. In 2022, they reported 4,722,300 illegal clues to the market supervision department, up 40.34% year-on-year, including 2,027,300 illegal advertisements, 723,100 violations of consumers’ rights and interests, and 341,800 illegal food safety behaviors. Judging from the increase, reports of unfair competition, trademark violations and online trading violations all increased by more than 60% year-on-year.

  Market supervision departments adhere to the people’s livelihood orientation, strengthen the analysis and judgment of complaints and reports, and severely investigate and punish violations of laws and regulations according to law. 281,100 cases were filed for reports of illegal advertisements and false propaganda; 63,000 cases were reported and filed against violations of consumers’ rights and interests, mainly involving the sale of products that do not meet safety requirements, counterfeiting and cheating consumers; 48,700 illegal reports on food safety were filed.

CCTV approved the rise of "pet blind box": this is a departure from human nature and alienation of entertainment.

CCTV News:On May 3, some netizens reported that a "pet blind box" was collected and delivered at a courier station in Chengdu, Sichuan, and the kittens and puppies in cages were dying. Some caring people in Chengdu immediately organized rescue. A caring person who participated in the on-site rescue said that the delivery place of these cats and dogs was Chengdu Sanlian Flower and Bird Market, and the merchants delivered live pets to the buyers in the name of selling "blind boxes".

At 22: 30 on May 3, the reporter arrived at Xiqiao West Street, Chengdu Railway Station. The scene was filled with the cries of cats and dogs, which came from cages on the ground.

Chen Yulian, head of Chengdu Love Home Animal Rescue Center:This car pulled a car (cats and dogs) over, and then we followed. They just (turn) the car (cats and dogs) onto this car. Let’s take a look at this van. It’s completely closed. Close the two back doors, and all the cats and dogs must be locked inside.

Subsequently, the two trucks were stopped by volunteers in the rescue center and called the police. The reporter saw that a woven bag was put on the outside of each cage, and ZTO Express’s express bill was posted on each bag. After stopping the van, the volunteers tore a piece of each woven pocket to give the kittens and puppies air and water to drink. Subsequently, the reporter found the person in charge of the express delivery site to understand the situation.

Soon, the police of the local police station and the staff of the street office have arrived at the scene. In the early morning of May 4, these kittens and puppies were safely transferred, and law enforcement officers began to verify the information.

Chengdu Postal Administration: It will be put on file for handling.

The relevant person in charge of Chengdu Postal Administration said yesterday (May 5) that the postal administration immediately launched an investigation after paying attention to the situation of "delivering blind boxes for pets". For the behavior of the courier outlet suspected of illegally receiving and sending live animals, it will be put on file and the handling of the case will be disclosed in a timely manner according to law. At present, the local animal inspection department in Chengdu has temporarily detained all cats and dogs according to law, and temporarily placed them for inspection.

In addition, the ZTO Express company involved also issued a notice saying that these live animals were sold online by e-commerce customers of the platform, and were illegally collected by Lotus Pond outlets in Chengdu, ZTO Express. At present, the express collection business of this outlet has been suspended, and the person in charge of delivery safety of ZTO Express Sichuan Provincial Management Center has been suspended for inspection.

The transportation and delivery of live animals has been clearly stipulated by law.

Since May 1 this year, the Law on Animal Epidemic Prevention has been implemented, and there are clear legal provisions on the transportation and delivery of live animals. On March 19th last year, the State Post Bureau also issued a notice, demanding to regulate the delivery of live animals, severely crack down on the illegal delivery of wild animals and their products, and strictly regulate the delivery of live animals other than protected wild animals. Then, whether the merchants and platforms selling "pet blind boxes" and the express delivery responsible for transportation are illegal, experts have given corresponding interpretations.

Respect the law and refuse the blind box "out of line"

The rise of blind box economy is largely due to satisfying consumers’ curiosity and surprise about uncertainty. However, using blind boxed animals to build some people’s happiness on the basis of animal suffering or even loss of life is a departure from human nature and alienation of entertainment. Merchants must abide by the relevant laws and regulations on the delivery of live animals, and courier companies should not knowingly commit crimes.Respect for human nature, respect for the law, and people’s hearts are not blind, so there will be no such bad and out-of-line blind box.
