(Reporter Shao Mingliang, all-media reporter of Sichuan Daily, Li Miao) On July 12th, the second joint meeting of provincial river and lake chiefs in the Yellow River Basin was held. The meeting was held by video, with the main venue in Chengdu and sub-venues in the Yellow River Conservancy Commission and other eight provinces (regions) in the Yellow River Basin. Huang Qiang, the rotating convener of the joint meeting, deputy secretary of the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee and governor, presided over the meeting and delivered a speech at the main venue in Chengdu.

　　At the meeting, Cai Rangtai, member of the Standing Committee of Qinghai Provincial Party Committee and Vice Governor, Hu Yun, Vice Governor of Sichuan Province, Xu Yanwen, Deputy Secretary General of Gansu Provincial Government, Mai Yanzhou, member of the Standing Committee of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region Party Committee and Vice President of the District Government, Chibatu, Vice Governor of Shanxi Province, Yang Qinrong, Vice Governor of Shaanxi Province, Xu Mingfei, Vice Governor of Henan Province, and Chen Ping, Vice Governor of Shandong Province made exchange speeches; Zhou Haiyan, director of the office of the joint meeting and deputy director of the Yellow River Conservancy Commission, made a report on the work of the joint meeting. The meeting reviewed and approved the Guiding Opinions on Implementing the Yellow River Protection Law in the Yellow River Basin and the Guiding Opinions on the Construction of Village-level Rivers and Lakes Management and Protection System in the Yellow River Basin.

　　In his speech, Huang Qiang said that in recent years, Sichuan has firmly established its upstream awareness, shouldered upstream responsibilities, unswervingly followed the road of ecological priority and green development, strived to build a business card of the world’s most beautiful plateau wetland national park, and constantly consolidated the ecological background of "beautiful Sichuan". The achievement of these stages lies in the scientific guidance of the supreme leader’s ecological civilization thought, thanks to the care and guidance of the Ministry of Water Resources, the Yellow River Water Resources Commission, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the Ministry of Natural Resources, the Ministry of Finance and other ministries, and inseparable from the support and help of the provinces (regions) along the Yellow River.

　　Huang Qiang said that in 1952, Chairman Mao issued a great call to "do a good job in the Yellow River". Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has personally planned, personally deployed and personally promoted the national major development strategy of ecological protection and high-quality development in the Yellow River Basin, emphasizing "making the Yellow River a river of happiness for the benefit of the people". The Law on the Protection of the Yellow River, which came into effect on April 1 this year, has opened a new chapter in the history of the Chinese nation’s management of the Yellow River. As a province along the Yellow River, we should take the political responsibility of "consistency", thoroughly implement the Yellow River Protection Law, and resolutely safeguard the An Lan of the Yellow River; With the effective action of "grasping to the end", we will build a compact minimum work unit and strive to improve the appearance of grass-roots rivers and lakes; With the struggle spirit of "promoting as one", iron core arrangement, iron surface inspection and iron fist law enforcement will vigorously promote the ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin; With the "as always" linkage and cooperation, give full play to the role of the joint meeting mechanism, promote the great protection and governance in all directions in the whole basin, and jointly sing the "Yellow River Chorus" in the new era.

　　Chen Dayong, director of the Department of Rivers and Lakes Management of the Ministry of Water Resources and director of the River Chief Office, attended the meeting and delivered a speech at the main venue. He pointed out that in recent years, under the strong leadership of the State Council of the CPC Central Committee, the provinces (regions) in the Yellow River Basin have promoted the long-term system of rivers and lakes to take root, and the management and protection of rivers and lakes in the Yellow River Basin have opened up a new situation, and the appearance of rivers and lakes has continued to improve. He emphasized that this year is the first year to fully implement the Yellow River Protection Law. Guided by the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the New Era, we should accurately grasp the new situation and new tasks, strengthen the implementation of long-term responsibility of rivers and lakes, assessment, incentive, supervision and inspection, legal management of institutional mechanisms and scientific and technological support, spatial control of water shoreline and construction of Happy Rivers and Lakes, and constantly improve the modernization level of management and protection, making new and greater contributions to the sustainable utilization of rivers and lakes and the sustainable development of the Chinese nation.

　　Relevant units of the Yellow River Conservancy Commission, responsible comrades of the nine provinces (regions) along the Yellow River, etc.

　　Guangming Daily, Beijing, March 12th (Reporter Wang Simin) "Unswervingly adhere to China’s basic economic system and promote the healthy development of various ownership economies". In recent days, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader made an important speech on the non-public economy at the joint meeting of members of the Democratic National Construction Association and the Federation of Industry and Commerce at the fourth session of the 12th Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference on March 4th afternoon, which boosted the hearts of the deputies. The deputies deeply felt that the General Secretary’s speech was like a "timely rain", which brought confidence and strength to China’s economic development under the new normal.

　　"Two unwavering" and "three unchanged" are the important policies first reiterated by the General Secretary in his speech. Member Zhou Wenzhang, former vice president of the National School of Administration, believes that this gives some people who hold extreme wrong views an unequivocal answer: any view that wants to unilaterally deny the non-public economy is not in line with the interests of the people and the law of development. Member Qian Yingyi, Dean of Tsinghua University Institute of Economics and Management, echoed it: This reaffirmation shows the consistent position of the CPC Central Committee on the non-public economy, responds to social concerns in a timely manner, and fully affirms the role of private enterprises in economic and social development.

　　"Some private entrepreneurs describe the current difficulties as ‘ Three big mountains ’ : the iceberg of the market, the mountain of financing, and the volcano of transformation. " General Secretary of the Supreme Leader vividly expressed the difficulties in the development of private enterprises. How to move away the "three mountains" and boost private enterprises to accelerate their progress? The deputies have combined their personal experiences and made suggestions. Zhang Minghua, deputy mayor of Ningbo, Zhejiang Province and vice chairman of Zhejiang Provincial Committee of Democratic National Construction Association, took Ningbo as an example to demonstrate the determination and exploration of local governments to support the development of private enterprises and create a good environment for them. In February 2016, Ningbo promulgated "Several Opinions on Further Reducing Enterprise Costs, Reducing Enterprise Burden and Promoting Steady Growth and Adjustment of the Real Economy", and 35 policies with high gold content and strong pertinence reduced fees and burdens for non-public enterprises in the city. After the implementation item by item, the Ningbo Municipal Government reduced the burden on enterprises by more than 20 billion yuan a year.

　　The new political and business relationship between "pro" and "clean" is another highlight in the important speech of the General Secretary. How to understand this definition? The deputies believe that the new relationship between politics and business is a unique expression of "gentleman culture" in the fields of "doing politics" and "doing business", which requires politicians and businessmen to abide by their own gentleman’s ways and Qi Xin to work together to develop the economy. In view of its specific implementation path, the deputies gave suggestions: adhering to the "pro" attitude, strictly adhering to the "clean" ethics, and relying on the rule of law and cultural norms to build a new type of political and business relationship.

　　"Some private entrepreneurs describe the current difficulties as ‘ Three big mountains ’ : the iceberg of the market, the mountain of financing, and the volcano of transformation. " General Secretary of the Supreme Leader recently said at the joint meeting of members of the Democratic National Construction Association and the Federation of Industry and Commerce at the Fourth Session of the 12th National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference. The general secretary stressed that all localities and departments should proceed from reality, refine and quantify policies and measures, formulate relevant supporting measures, and promote the implementation of various policies, so that private enterprises can truly enhance their sense of gain from policies.

　　General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized "two unshakable", reiterated "three unchanged", and defined a new type of political and business relationship with the words "pro" and "clear", which was concise and profound. Facing the new economic normal, how to stimulate the new kinetic energy of the private economy? On behalf of the Committee members, they made suggestions and discussed development plans.

　　1. "Three unchanged" highlights the important position of private economy.

　　● Member Zhou Wenzhang (former vice president of National School of Administration)

　　"Two Unswervings" Reaffirm Policy Principles

　　The 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed "unswervingly consolidating and developing the public sector of the economy" and "unswervingly encouraging, supporting and guiding the development of the non-public sector of the economy". The 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China further proposed "unswervingly encouraging, supporting and guiding the development of the non-public sector of the economy, and ensuring that all ownership economies use production factors equally according to law, participate in market competition fairly, and be equally protected by law". With the development of non-public economy, relevant theories and policies are becoming more and more perfect and systematic. In his speech, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader reiterated important policy principles and gave some people who hold extreme wrong views an unequivocal answer: any view that wants to unilaterally deny the non-public economy is not in line with the interests of the people and the law of development. Therefore, we should unify our understanding of the non-public economy with the general secretary’s speech, get rid of the ideological entanglement between "public" and "private", and strengthen the policy principle of "two unshakable".

　　"Three unchanged" makes private enterprises go into battle lightly.

　　In his important speech at the joint seminar, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader reiterated that "three things have not changed" — — The position and role of the non-public economy in China’s economic and social development have not changed. Our principles and policies of unswervingly encouraging, supporting and guiding the development of the non-public economy have not changed. Our principles and policies of creating a good environment and providing more opportunities for the development of the non-public economy have not changed. In my opinion, this "three unchanged" has a profound meaning. China’s non-public economy has developed under the guidance of the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s principles and policies since the reform and opening up, and it is a road opened up under the leadership of the Communist Party of China. When economic development enters a new normal, the role of non-public ownership economy in stabilizing growth, expanding employment and promoting innovation has become increasingly prominent. With the continuous development of the "double innovation" policy, the number of employees in the individual and private economy has grown steadily, and the non-public economy has shown a booming trend. In the next step, we should give greater support to the non-public economy in the fields of tax reduction, fee reduction and financing, make every effort to promote structural reform on the supply side, reduce the cost and burden of enterprises, and let more private enterprises go into battle lightly.

　　(Interview by our reporter Feng Lei)

　　● Member Zhang Minghua (Deputy Mayor of Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province, Vice Chairman of Zhejiang Provincial Committee of Democratic National Construction Association)

　　Non-public ownership economy has contributed greatly.

　　In his important speech, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader reiterated the "three unchanged" about the non-public economy, which is very targeted. Under the new economic normal, with the changes of economic development stage and environment, the non-public economy has encountered new opportunities and challenges, and financing is difficult and expensive, and market access restrictions are more. Reiterating that the "three things have not changed" will root out the root cause and guide all sectors of society to further correctly understand the importance of the non-public economy. Considering the development of Ningbo to Zhejiang, the non-public economy has contributed to the economic and social development. The non-public economy is an important part of the market economy because of its flexible institutional mechanisms such as employing people and investing, high sensitivity to the market and strong adaptability to the market economy. In many provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, the proportion of non-public economy has exceeded "half of the country". For example, in Zhejiang, the non-public economy has accounted for more than 70% of GDP, more than 60% of tax revenue, and about 90% of employment. It has become an important force to promote economic transformation and upgrading and promote the overall development of various social undertakings.

　　(Interview by our reporter Wang Simin)

　　● Member Qian Yingyi (Dean of Tsinghua University School of Economics and Management)

　　Relaxing access will usher in new opportunities for the non-public sector of the economy

　　"Two unwavering" and "three unchanged" show the consistent position of the CPC Central Committee on the non-public economy, respond to social concerns in a timely manner, and fully affirm the role of private enterprises in economic and social development. In his speech, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that "efforts should be made to liberalize market access, and all industries and fields that are not explicitly prohibited by laws and regulations should encourage private capital to enter, and all fields that the Chinese government has opened to foreign investment or promised to open should be opened to domestic private capital". This will bring new opportunities to the non-public economy, which is not only a reform measure to stimulate the vitality of the non-public economy, but also a long-term measure to promote supply-side growth. While the government is speeding up the decentralization of power, private enterprises should exert their subjective initiative and innovative spirit, correctly understand and actively adapt to the new normal, and strive for new actions, new promotion and new development under the new normal.

　　2. Promote policy implementation and boost development confidence

　　● Member Jiangnan (member of the Standing Committee of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce and chairman of Shengfeng Group)

　　Vigorously create an environment for innovation and entrepreneurship development.

　　Some private entrepreneurs describe the current difficulties as "three mountains": the iceberg of the market, the mountain of financing and the volcano of transformation. In his speech, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader confronted the problem and prescribed the right medicine. In my opinion, the key to the next step is to activate the internal potential of private enterprises and vigorously create a development environment for innovation and entrepreneurship — — We will implement the existing preferential policies to encourage private enterprises to innovate, and vigorously promote scientific and technological investment and transformation of scientific and technological achievements. It is necessary to strengthen the cooperation between schools and enterprises, accelerate the construction of public technology platforms such as industrial research institutes, explore the development of mutual-aid enterprise alliances such as science and technology alliances and industrial alliances, build effective R&D systems and mechanisms, establish innovation support systems with private enterprises as the main body, and strive to cultivate the core competitiveness of enterprises. We should also strengthen cooperation among government, banks and enterprises, often introduce key technological transformation projects to financial institutions, build a platform for communication and cooperation, encourage social capital to enter the field of venture capital investment, support enterprises to independently build venture capital platforms, set up angel funds, and encourage industrial capital to enter the field of venture capital.

　　● Representative Zhou Qiang (Director of Gansu Provincial Development and Reform Commission)

　　Break through the "middle obstruction" and "loosen the burden" for enterprises

　　In his important speech at the joint seminar, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed that it is necessary to further clean up and streamline the administrative examination and approval items and enterprise-related fees involving private investment management, standardize the behavior of intermediate links and intermediary organizations, reduce the burden on enterprises and reduce their costs. We must conscientiously implement it, put down all the approval items that should be released and can be released, get through the "middle obstruction" and "loosen the burden" for enterprises. Last year, we increased the power of decentralization in three aspects: approval and filing of enterprise investment projects, examination and approval of government investment projects, and management of price charges. In the next step, we will continue to improve the online approval and supervision platform for investment projects, make full use of technologies such as the Internet and big data, realize online processing, vertical and horizontal linkage, collaborative service and legal supervision for the approval and supervision of investment projects among various departments, and continuously improve the performance ability and service level of grassroots development and reform departments.

　　(Interview by our reporter Feng Lei)

　　● Member Wang Wenbiao (member of the Standing Committee of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, vice president of China Civil Chamber of Commerce, chairman of Yili Resources Group Co., Ltd.)

　　Provide policy support for private enterprises to join the ecological industry.

　　"Promote the implementation, refinement and implementation of various policies, so that private enterprises can truly enhance their sense of gain from policies", which is a particularly inspiring sentence in the important speech of the Supreme Leader General Secretary on the non-public economy. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader clearly pointed out that it is very pragmatic and targeted to make great efforts to solve the financing difficulties of small and medium-sized enterprises and liberalize market access. Yili will accelerate the transformation and upgrading, so that the development of enterprises has confidence, quality and stamina. At the same time, we also hope that private enterprises can get more policy support to participate in eco-industry: first, in the financing of small and medium-sized enterprises, we should provide green credit loans and green bonds with a term of not less than 30 years and government discount or interest of not more than 2% to encourage more enterprises and private capital to actively participate in industrialized ecological poverty alleviation; The second is to support enterprises to participate in the ecological restoration, land restoration and desertification control projects implemented by the government through the government-social capital cooperation (PPP) model; The third is to formulate the implementation rules for private enterprises to participate in the "Belt and Road", so that they can complement the advantages of state-owned enterprises and jointly promote the construction of the "Belt and Road".

　　(Interview by our reporter Wang Simin)

　　● Representative Ma Huateng (Chairman of the Board of Directors of Tencent)

　　Innovation and cooperation to enhance competitiveness

　　General Secretary Supreme Leader’s important speech on the development of China’s non-public economy is a very timely and powerful signal for private enterprises, which gives us great encouragement and confidence. General Secretary Supreme Leader’s speech is rich in information, which not only clearly and powerfully conveys the attitude and direction of vigorously developing the non-public economy, but also accurately and meticulously combs the problems and dilemmas faced by the development of private enterprises at present, and at the same time, points out the measures to break through the predicament, effectively support and promote the faster development of private enterprises. At present, China is facing a complicated international situation and arduous domestic reform, development and stability tasks. The integration of Internet industry and other fields is getting stronger and the competition is extremely fierce. Private enterprises need more innovations in technology, products and services, constantly improve their competitiveness, and at the same time strengthen inter-industry or cross-border cooperation to contribute to the growth of the national economy and stimulate development vitality.

　　(Interview by our reporter Yang Jun)

　　● Representative Lei Jun (Chairman of Xiaomi Company)

　　Break the policy shackles of entrepreneurial innovation

　　In his speech, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that "the administrative examination and approval items and enterprise-related fees involving private investment management should be further cleaned up and streamlined" and "the burden on enterprises should be reduced", which made private entrepreneurs very excited. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the state has implemented a series of policies and measures to simplify administration and decentralize power and optimize services. For example, the reform of the commercial system has played a significant role in reducing enterprise costs and improving the environment for entrepreneurial innovation. In the next step, we look forward to further simplifying the examination and approval process and improving the system to support mass entrepreneurship. For example, some procedural requirements set by company law often become obstacles to shareholders’ free agreement. The company law should return to the principle of "free agreement", accept the contribution of human capital, and solve the limitation of the equity ratio agreement between shareholders; Solve the limitation of program setting in shareholders’ free agreement, fully implement preferred shares and increase the space for shareholders’ free agreement. At the same time, the industrial and commercial filing system of the company’s articles of association will be implemented to improve the entrepreneurial innovation environment and promote mass entrepreneurship and innovation. With the support of modern information technologies such as mobile Internet and cloud computing, China’s economic development will surely reach a new level by deeply implementing the innovation-driven development strategy, breaking all kinds of constraints on individual and enterprise innovation and forming a new situation of "double innovation".

　　(Interview by our reporter Yang Jun)

　　● Member Yan Bingzhu (Chairman of Bank of Beijing)

　　Developing small and medium-sized banks to solve the financing difficulties of small and micro enterprises

　　Economy determines finance, and finance serves economy. At present, the development of small and medium-sized banks in China is still insufficient. In some underdeveloped economic regions, the financial supply is still far from enough, and the financial support for small and micro enterprises and other weak economic links is far from enough, which can not effectively meet the requirements of the times of "mass entrepreneurship and innovation". It is suggested to further increase support for the development of small and medium-sized banks during the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period. For example, explore and optimize the classified supervision of banks, innovate and improve the dynamic supervision mode with asset size, capital strength, management ability, supervision rating and business complexity as the main criteria, so that all kinds of banks have the opportunity to "shine". This is also conducive to the banking industry to break the homogenization competition and achieve differentiated and characteristic development. At the same time, it is suggested that small and medium-sized banks actively adapt to the trend of economic restructuring and financial development, fully stimulate the deep potential and infinite vitality of small and medium-sized finance, and help supply-side structural reform.

　　(Interview by our reporter Villi)

　　● Representative You Xiaoping (Chairman of the Board of Directors of Huafeng Group)

　　Let enterprises invest more profits in technological transformation and R&D.

　　General Secretary Supreme Leader’s important speech on the non-public economy has strengthened our confidence. Providing more opportunities for private enterprises and creating a good development environment will help "mass entrepreneurship and innovation" and cultivate and expand the "new kinetic energy" of private enterprises. Difficult and expensive financing is the biggest bottleneck for the development of private enterprises, especially small and medium-sized enterprises. The purpose of financial reform is to build a bridge for a large number of private capital and small and medium-sized enterprises in the real economy Private capital is a flowing river, which can water small and medium-sized enterprises. For example, although Zhejiang has great potential for economic development, it also has shortcomings, such as the industrial structure is still not reasonable. I expect the relevant government departments to study and formulate more breakthrough, innovative and effective policies, further reduce the financing costs of enterprises, and let enterprises invest more profits in technological transformation and research and development, so as to realize the promotion from "Made in China" to "Created in China".

　　3. Define "the relationship between government and business" and highlight the connotation of "closeness" and "purity"

　　● Representative Yang Herong (Party Secretary and Director of Guangxi Statistics Bureau)

　　Adhering to the attitude of "pro" and strictly adhering to the ethics of "purity"

　　General Secretary of the Supreme Leader expounded the contemporary new political and business relations with the words "pro" and "clean", clarified the rules and ethics that must be followed in the economy ruled by law, and embodied the firm determination and confidence of the CPC Central Committee in correctly handling political and business relations and fully mobilizing the enthusiasm of all aspects of the society. "Pro" reflects the clear attitude of the CPC Central Committee to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of non-public economic people and give full play to the role of private enterprises; "Qing" embodies the strict requirements of the CPC Central Committee for leading cadres at all levels in terms of political discipline and rules. In real life, we should adhere to the "pro" attitude, strictly adhere to the "clean" ethics, and strive to internalize the two in our hearts and externalize them in our actions, thus forming a political and business relationship that is "as deep as fish and water, as calm as chrysanthemum". The word "pro" and "clear" is a vivid interpretation and image generalization of the relationship between government and business under the new historical conditions, which embodies the best state and internal relationship between them.

　　(Interview by our reporter Zhou Shixing)

　　● Member Xu Guanju (Vice Chairman of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce and Chairman of Chuanhua Group)

　　New political and business relationship eliminates enterprise concerns

　　In his speech, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader clearly expounded the new political and business relations, and eliminated all concerns of entrepreneurs in exchanges with government officials and leading cadres. "Pro" means actively communicating with party committees, governments and departments at all levels, telling the truth, telling the truth, making suggestions and enthusiastically supporting local development. "Clean" means to lead an honest and clean life, take the right path, and do business in a law-abiding and aboveboard manner.

　　I feel that running enterprises according to laws and regulations, being honest and doing things cleanly are the foundation of the development of private economy. We should further fulfill our corporate social responsibilities, get rich and think about the source, actively participate in national strategies such as poverty alleviation, and strive to be a model of "patriotism, dedication, law-abiding management, entrepreneurship and innovation, and returning to society".

　　(Interview by our reporter Yang Jun)

　　● Member Chen Shiqiang (Chairman of Henan Hongchang Group)

　　Building a new political and business relationship depends on the rule of law.

　　General Secretary of the Supreme Leader used the words "pro" and "clean" to define the new political and business relationship, which is very incisive. The "affinity" between politics and business lies in being honest and cooperating closely in order to promote the common goal of reform and economic development. This kind of "pro-"should be sincere and mutual assistance. Especially when entrepreneurs feel the downward pressure of the economy and encounter difficulties in operation today, it is especially necessary for government officials to "act positively and serve first", treat entrepreneurs with the heart of treating their loved ones and support the development of enterprises. At the same time, this kind of "pro" also has a boundary, and this boundary is "Qing".

　　To be "clean", it is necessary to strengthen public interests and eliminate selfishness. The government supports enterprises to be clean and aboveboard, and enterprises must abide by the law and discipline and abide by the right path when treating officials. To build a new relationship between politics and business, we must rely on the power of the rule of law to internalize the "purity" of politics and business, and form a spontaneous and strong cultural pursuit.

　　(Interview by our reporter Yang Jun)

On May 18th, the State Council Press Office held a routine briefing on the State Council policy, introducing the situation of supporting SMEs to solve difficulties and develop healthily, and answering reporters’ questions. At the meeting, Xu Xiaolan, vice minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that since the beginning of this year, the economic operation of small and medium-sized enterprises has started smoothly. Statistics from the Bureau of Statistics show that the operating income and profits of small and medium-sized industrial enterprises above designated size increased by 14.1% and 6.5% respectively in the first quarter, which fully reflected the resilience and vitality of small and medium-sized enterprises. However, at present, the complexity and uncertainty of the domestic and international environment have obviously increased. We also see that many small and medium-sized enterprises like the service industry and those at the end of the industrial chain have some operational difficulties. Small and medium-sized enterprises generally report that it is difficult to find orders, reduce costs, collect accounts, finance, people and logistics, and make normal production and operation difficult.

Xu Xiaolan said that the new round of epidemic has brought a great impact on the economic operation of small and medium-sized enterprises, but we must see that the long-term fundamentals of China’s economy have not changed. In this regard, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, in conjunction with relevant departments and localities, fully implemented the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, focused on the practical difficulties and needs of SMEs, and implemented detailed policies through horizontal coordination of departments, vertical linkage of ministries and provinces, and demonstration and guidance, and went all out to support SMEs to solve problems and develop healthily.

　　A few days ago, Tesla Motors (Beijing) Co., Ltd. and Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. filed a recall plan with the General Administration of Market Supervision according to the relevant requirements for the recall management of defective automobile products. Since May 29, 2023, some imported Model S, Model X, Model 3 and domestic Model 3 and Model Y vehicles with production dates from January 12, 2019 to April 24, 2023 have been recalled, totaling 1,104,622 vehicles.

　　The vehicles within the scope of this recall are not allowed to choose the energy recovery braking strategy, which may not provide enough reminders for the driver to step on the accelerator pedal for a long time. The superposition of these factors may increase the probability of mistakenly stepping on the accelerator pedal for a long time, which may increase the risk of collision and pose a safety hazard.

　　This recall was carried out when the General Administration of Market Supervision initiated a defect investigation. Affected by the investigation, Tesla Motors (Beijing) Co., Ltd. and Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. plan to push newly developed functions for vehicles within the recall range through OTA technology, so as to reduce the collision risk caused by excessive speed caused by long-term deep stepping on the accelerator pedal. The specific functions include: providing options to allow drivers to choose energy recovery braking intensity for vehicles that do not have the option of energy recovery braking intensity; Adjust the factory default state of vehicle energy recovery braking strategy; Give a reminder when the driver deeply depresses the accelerator pedal for a long time.

　　Tesla Motors (Beijing) Co., Ltd. and Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. will notify the relevant car owners by registered mail, SMS, etc., and arrange the recall and maintenance. Users can call Tesla customer service hotline through mobile phones and fixed telephones, or log on to the website or follow WeChat WeChat official account for more information and reflect the defect clues.

　　On July 29th, a white-haired old man and his family sat around a table in the study room of Lianyungang Retirement Center for Retired Cadres in Jiangsu Military Region, solemn and pious. There is a white cake on the red wooden table in front of us, and the bright party flag and the number "92" painted on the cake show the unusual significance of this day.

　　The old man’s name is Zhang Kejing. He is 100 years old. He is an old soldier. This year, in order to celebrate the upcoming 92nd Army Day, he gathered all the children who had joined the army and exercised all over the country to spend a special "birthday" with them. (Correspondent Dong Hongwang, Fan Ting Zi Niu journalist Zhang Lingfei)

　　The 92nd Army Day

　　The younger generation rushed back from all over the country to celebrate.

　　Zhang Ke, who respects the elderly, was born in Bazhou, Hebei Province in April 1919. He joined the army in February 1939 and joined the party in 1942. In the 1960s, the old man came to Lianyungang with the army to settle down. He and his wife participated in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the War of Liberation and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and dozens of military medals on his chest witnessed his glorious years. In 2014, his wife died unfortunately due to illness, and the elderly’s daily life was taken care of by their children in turn.

　　For the elderly people in Zhang Ke, the annual August 1st Army Day is a must. "Before the coming of the Army Day this year, my father wondered if he could call all his children to Lianyungang to celebrate this special festival with him." Zhang Lijun, the fifth son of Zhang Kejing, said.

　　The children of the old man came from all directions immediately after receiving the notice. "The elder sister is from Weihai, the eldest brother is from Qingdao, the second brother is from Xi ‘an, the third brother is from Suzhou, and the fourth brother, my sixth brother and I are all in Lianyungang. Let’s celebrate the 92nd Army Day with the old man."

　　Zhang Xiaoxia, the eldest daughter of Zhang Ke, told Zi Niu news reporter that there are seven brothers and sisters, she is the eldest daughter and the eldest, Zhang Guoqing is her eldest brother, Zhang Zhengping is her second brother, Zhang Haibin is her third brother, Zhang Yuejin is her fourth brother, Zhang Lijun is her fifth brother, and Zhang Mingming is her sixth brother. From 1965 to 1978, seven sisters were sent to the army for exercise by their parents. "My grandfather, grandfather and uncle are all the Eighth Route Army. My parents plus our brothers and sisters, my wife and the younger generation have been in the army for more than a dozen people." Zhang Xiaoxia said proudly. The emergency back, there are seven of their brothers and sisters, and granddaughter (Zhang Guoqing’s daughter) Zhang Na.

　　At 9: 30 in the morning, Zi Niu news reporter saw in the study room of the cadre’s rest home that a red banner was hung on one wall of the room: "Three generations of soldiers greet Bayi", and two tables were set in front of the banner. There was a big cake on the table, with a bright red flag painted on it and the number "92" below the red flag. Later, under the care of their children, the elderly people in Zhang Ke came to the study room to celebrate the August 1st Army Day in advance.

　　Although the old man’s language expression is not so clear, facing the camera, Zhang Ke smiled respectfully and told everyone slowly: "Our good life is given by the party! Long live communist party! Warmly congratulate the 92nd Army Day. "

　　Party age of 77 years

　　Both husband and wife were inspired by Bethune to study medicine to save lives.

　　The Zi Niu news reporter learned that after Zhang Kejing joined the army in 1939, he was sent to Bethune School in Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region for study in the following year, and worked in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region after graduation. Zhang Kejing joined the Party in 1942.

　　What makes the elderly people in Zhang Ke proud is that his wife Liu Yan once worked with international friend Bethune, and he was once the first student of Bethune School. Influenced by Bethune’s spirit, the couple decided to learn medicine well and save more people. During the war years, their main job was to fight in the front line of rescue with gunfire, and countless comrades-in-arms regained their lives because of them.

　　"Yan Liu and I have been together for 70 years in the Spring and Autumn Period. Under the excellent situation of reform and opening up, our life has become sweeter. Whenever I recall that experience, I feel very emotional in my heart. " Zhang Ke respect for the elderly wrote in his memoirs.

　　Zhang Xiaoxia told Zi Niu news reporter that her mother Yan Liu (formerly known as Li Xiu) joined the army with her grandfather in 1938, because her grandfather was an administrator in the rear hospital of Jizhong Military Region, and her 13-year-old mother studied in the nursing training team of the military hospital after joining the army. In 1939, her mother met Bethune, and once Bethune said in a speech to medical staff, "It is necessary to rescue the wounded in the battlefield quickly. If the wounded are bandaged one minute earlier, the wounded will lose one minute of blood and their lives may be saved." Bethune’s speech has always been engraved on his mother’s mind. My mother worked hard to save the wounded in many battles later, and was not afraid of hardship and fatigue. She was repeatedly rated as a model worker.

　　70 years in the same boat

　　Love in the era of war

　　When it comes to his wife Yan Liu, the dignified expression of Zhang Ke’s respect for the elderly reveals a smile. He wrote in his memoirs: "In 1943, after I returned to the Jizhong Plain with the troops of the Ninth Division of Jizhong, I developed two abscesses because of frequent fighting, hard life and poor sanitary conditions. At that time, Li Xiu (later renamed Yan Liu), a female nurse who changed my dressing, was only seventeen or eighteen years old, with fine features, graceful figure and generous manners. Although she didn’t talk to each other when changing my dressing, I was deeply impressed by her thoughtful service. Since then, her figure has often emerged in my mind. "

　　After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War in 1945, Zhang Ke Jing and Yan Liu were introduced to establish a love relationship. In early 1946, they were married in Xigugang Village, Xidong, Tianjin.

　　With the needs of the war, the Jizhong Military Region established an independent field brigade, and Zhang Kejing was transferred to the health center directly under the brigade, and Yan Liu was also transferred to the institute. It’s a long way to March, sometimes marching hundreds of miles in one night. At that time, Yan Liu was pregnant with their first child. It had been four or five months, and her legs were swollen, but she still walked quickly and never left behind. In the later days, the couple fought with the army in the south and the north, sharing weal and woe and fighting side by side.

　　After the liberation of the whole country, on July 1, 1951, they crossed the Yalu River together to participate in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. In order to rescue the wounded on the Korean battlefield, the couple were not afraid of hardship or fatigue. Sometimes they took care of more than 20 wounded people by themselves, carried a stretcher through the enemy blockade and gave their lives to the party and the people until the war was won.

　　"Today’s victory is hard-won. I hope that young people will not forget history and the spirit of hard struggle because they live in peacetime." As he spoke, the old man’s voice choked: "I am very lucky, so many comrades have not seen the victory."

　　Self-improvement all his life

　　Wenchuan earthquake took the lead in donating money, living a simple life and having a strict family style.

　　After retiring, Zhang Kejing and his wife served as the director of the management committee and the old committee for 30 years. They were respected and respected, and each family had a family shortage, so the couple came forward to help solve it. Almost all the activities of the retirement home were planned and organized by the couple.

　　"After the Wenchuan earthquake, the old man took the lead in donating 2,000 yuan, and together with his wife, he sent a special party fee of 6,000 yuan, which made a good start for other comrades." Chen Yan, director of the retired cadres’ office, said, "In fact, for so many years, the elderly have been donating money to those in need every year, but they never like to leave their names."

　　"Parents are self-disciplined, and our education is very strict. At the annual family gathering, my father should read his own family style and family instructions before the younger generation, and give everyone a copy of his family style written by himself. Influenced by them, our brothers and sisters are very friendly, respect and love each other, and always have a grateful heart. " Zhang Kejing’s son Zhang Lijun said.

　　Write down with deep affection: "centenary military salute to the party"

　　Recently, among the elderly, Zi Niu journalists saw a corner of the study full of various honorary certificates of the elderly, while the old man’s desk was full of books and pen and ink. The old man said that he wanted to present gifts to the party and the people’s army in a special way. After that, the old man picked up a writing brush, dipped it in ink, and wrote the seven characters "Centennial military salute to the party" on the paper. Calligraphy is vigorous and powerful, and it has a good demeanor.

　　回顾战争年代的经历，完全可以用“九死一生”来形容。而这个戎马大半生的军人，却在离休后做出了一个“文绉绉”的决定：每天练习毛笔字，把传统文化传承下去。

　　他的儿子张立军经常感慨：“开始以为父亲这项爱好只是突发奇想，没想到他坚持这项兴趣爱好近40年了，直到100岁热情仍不见消退，每天都坚持练两小时。”除了练字，老人的国画也是炉火纯青，一幅《芦雁飞鸣食宿图》惟妙惟肖，十分生动。而且，老人都是自学成才的。

　　“张老爱读书练字，特别喜欢用小楷抄写党的政策方针，装订成册后送给我们这些年轻人阅读。练字除了能传承传统文化，最主要的是能从中感悟到人生哲理，让自己更加豁达开朗，这也许是老人长寿的秘诀吧。”干休所干事陈岩说。

　　知道老人爱书法，海州诗词楹联协会会长朱成安携书法家向张克敬老人送来了楹联书法作品，上面写道：“克敌雄风，今虽百岁军威耀；敬身本色，永是初心国梦追！”这副楹联书法作品，正是老人的真实写照。

??UBS downgraded its rating to sell, with an updated target price of $197

UBS cut its rating from neutral to sell, with a target price of $197. In a report, UBS said Tesla’s share price had risen "too much, too fast", making its current valuation increasingly difficult to justify.

The stock, currently trading at 86 times one-year forward earnings, lacks visibility and risks delaying or failing to meet growth targets. The agency believes that the high valuation of Tesla’s non-core business has reached a level that may raise concerns, driven by enthusiasm for artificial intelligence. According to historical experience, Tesla’s share price will enter a downward channel when the proportion of the car business in the stock price falls below 30%. UBS also pointed out that Tesla has delayed the launch of the original RobotTaxi, suggesting that project implementation may be more challenging than expected.

??Geely President Yang Xueliang: Chinese cars go to sea, don’t repeat the mistakes of motorcycles

The whole of Asia is almost all Chinese-produced motorcycles. Now in South East Asia, there is almost no trace of Chinese motorcycles. The reason is that these overseas motorcycle companies are frantically fighting price wars and compressing the quality space. (South East Asia consumer users) will know after using it and will not buy it again.

??China Electromechanical Chamber of Commerce: It is expected that the annual growth rate of automobile exports will be 15% -20%.

The Beijing News reported on July 14 that from July 11 to July 13, the 2024 China Automobile Forum was held in Shanghai. Chen Jingjing, secretary general of the Automotive Branch of the China Electromechanical Chamber of Commerce, said at the forum, "According to the data of the General Administration of Customs, the scale of vehicle exports in the first half of this year was 2.93 million, which is close to our expected level of 3 million vehicles. We hope that China’s automobile exports will have a solid performance in the second half of the year." Chen Jingjing said that from the current export value, China’s automobile exports are still lagging behind Germany and Japan and ranking third in the world. Although China’s automobile exports are relatively large, there is still a certain gap with Western automakers in terms of export prices and other aspects.

For the export of automobile companies, Chen Jingjing suggested that first of all, automobile companies should maintain normal profit margins, continuously improve service quality, and not only rely on sales targets to maintain market share; secondly, there should be a reasonable division of overseas markets, which are trade types and which are investment types, and a reasonable feasibility analysis should be done in investment-friendly markets. In addition, the overseas layout of automobile companies in emerging markets should also be carefully considered, such as Chinese car companies’ investment in South East Asia. At present, the main markets for electric vehicles in South East Asia are concentrated in Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and other markets. Excessive concentration of Chinese companies’ investment in the local market may lead to increased competition between China.

In response to the situation of automobile exports this year, Chen Jingjing said that he still maintained the forecast at the beginning of the year, and it is expected that the growth rate of automobile exports will be between 15% and 20%, and the scale of automobile exports is expected to reach 6 million, among which the penetration rate of new energy vehicles is expected to increase to more than 35%.

"Fast and stable" to solve the battery anxiety of mobile phone users

– Exploring the quality code of Xiaomi’s ultimate innovation system for charging technology

Our reporter, Yue Qian

How to charge quickly is a must-have option in modern life, not only to be able to charge, but also as fast as possible. Xiaomi’s super fast charging technology has brought unexpected surprises to consumers: it only takes 8 minutes to fill a 4000mAh battery, enough to use normally for a whole day.

Xiaomi’s innovation has relieved people of the need to worry about running out of battery power on their mobile phones.

Imagine what you can do in the 8 minutes after getting up in the morning? Have a cup of coffee to refresh yourself? Simply stretch? Or take a shower? For Xiaomi’s phone, these 8 minutes are enough to power it up for the new day.

From the world’s first 120W wired fast charging technology to the world’s first 200W charging technology, Xiaomi has brought mobile phone charging into the "8-minute era", truly achieving a "qualitative change" in the charging experience, and allowing more and more users to completely bid farewell to power anxiety.

Behind this technological change is the ultimate innovation system of mobile phone charging technology launched by Xiaomi since September 2018. In just over two years, Xiaomi has completed the change from "chaser" to "transcendent" to "leader" in the field of mobile phone charging with the spirit of self-evolution, and once again verified the strong driving force of Xiaomi’s "user-centered" quality improvement concept.

The reporter conducted in-depth interviews with the ultimate innovation system of mobile phone charging technology to explore the quality code of Xiaomi’s charging technology evolution iteration.

Quality password one:

Driving technological innovation with user feedback

What is the driving force of technological innovation and quality improvement? At Xiaomi, this answer has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people – user-centered, with the ultimate goal of pursuing the ultimate user experience. For the research and development of charging technology, it is not only to make mobile phone charging faster and more stable, but also to make the charging experience better and cooler.

In the process of technological improvement, Xiaomi innovatively built the UIOCT system of charging technology. The system is based on improving the user’s charging experience, taking user feedback and pain points as the starting point and driving force for continuous technological innovation, and ending with the landing of new products requested by users. "For charging technology research and development, the user is the starting point and the end point" – this is the consensus of the charging technology team.

In order to truly understand the needs of users, the charging technology team collects user feedback and suggestions through various channels such as Xiaomi community, service system, customer service phone, etc., analyzes user pain points and makes improvements one by one. Many problems do not have ready-made solutions to learn from, and the team can only explore in the "no man’s land", through continuous trial and error to find the most satisfactory solution for users.

Can charging be faster? This is the common expectation of mobile phone users. Under the condition of existing lithium batteries, Xiaomi has created a multi-level progressive current regulation technology in the industry, which can refine the charging current step by step, effectively increasing the charging speed by more than 10%.

When charging, it generates heat, which is caused by the characteristics of the lithium battery of the mobile phone, and it is also a problem in the industry. Is it a detour or a face-to-face difficulty? Xiaomi’s engineers chose the latter and innovatively developed a dual-mode switching control technology, allowing users to adaptively switch the charging mode according to the usage scenario, effectively dispersing hotspots and bringing a better temperature rise experience.

Nowadays, in order to improve the battery power of mobile phones, mainstream manufacturers almost all adopt the "dual-cell" solution, but with it, the battery loss increases and the battery life is reduced. This is also the reason why users complain that "charging fast and falling fast". In this regard, Xiaomi once again broke out of the new track and innovatively developed the single-cell charging chip Surging P1, which makes the battery cell density higher and the battery life longer, achieving "both fish and bear’s paw".

In order to make charging more convenient, Xiaomi customized a fast charging cable. Considering that users may use other brands of charging plugs, engineers have carried out a large number of self-developed designs while also taking into account the charging compatibility of the cable. For all mainstream brands of chargers and mobile phones on the market, they have done technical tests. "This job is completely to make it more convenient for users to use." In order to solve the problem of incompatible charging plugs of a certain brand, engineers worked overtime until late at night for several days, and finally solved the problem, so as to ensure that users can enjoy a fast and stable charging experience no matter which charging plug they use.

It is worth mentioning that while solving users’ charging pain points, Xiaomi has also created a charging experience that exceeds expectations for users through technological innovation, and even changed consumers’ charging habits. Taking 200W second charging technology as an example, you can fully charge your phone in the morning, and you no longer have to worry about forgetting to charge. "Once you have this experience, you (users) can’t go back," the team leader said proudly.

Establishment of an Interdisciplinary Expert Review Committee (TMG)

For a long time, the field of mobile phone charging technology has faced the "28 dilemma", that is, high-current charging time only accounts for 20% of the total charging time, but can charge 80% of the power; constant-voltage charging time accounts for 80% of the total charging time, and can only charge 20% of the power.

In order to solve the "28 dilemma", it involves charging solutions, charging chips, charging equipment and other departments and fields, each with its own technical difficulties and bottlenecks. In the face of new technical solutions, different departments will have different views. On the one hand is the solution to the problem that has been hard to come up with, and on the other hand is the latent risk that may arise. Should we continue or give up?

At the "crossroads" of technology, the cross-disciplinary expert review committee (TMG) built on Xiaomi’s organizational structure plays a key role.

Engineer Jiang Helin introduced that in order to break through the "28 dilemma", the Xiaomi charging technology team finally discussed and came up with the MI-FC solution idea of "increasing the voltage value of the battery and prolonging the charging time of high current" through dozens of brainstorms. However, increasing the voltage will cause risks such as excessive oxidation, resulting in shorter battery life.

Experts in different fields in TMG jointly review the technical solution from objectives, risks to feasibility, leadership and other dimensions. In the technical pre-research stage, TMG can accurately and quickly determine the solution; in terms of solving technical differences, TMG can upgrade the device pre-research to the whole machine charging pre-research, realizing from a single partial design to overall performance debugging, thereby improving the user experience.

Specific to the MI-FC technical solution, TMG experts anticipate that the solution is feasible and recommend that aging tests be carried out as soon as possible to verify whether there is a risk of excessive oxidation. After a series of work such as proofing and testing, the team spent more than 5 months to finally formulate a feasible plan. Due to sufficient pre-research, the plan was successfully transplanted to the device-level project, which greatly reduced the time required to develop the device and fully guaranteed the research and development efficiency.

Not only the MI-FC technical solution, but also the more than 800 patents applied by the project team are inseparable from the technical assistance of TMG. TMG comprehensively considers and evaluates various technical solutions to ensure the accuracy of the research and development direction and escort the overall innovation of mobile phone charging technology.

Quality password three:

The research and development of excellence

In the process of reaching the peak of technology, the Xiaomi charging technology team also encountered many difficulties, but every time they relied on uncompromising research and development determination to successfully break through.

Li Min, an engineer at the baseband technology department of the hardware R & D department, said that in order to achieve 120W second charging, Xiaomi specially developed a custom charging chip. But less than four months before mass production, the chip temperature was too high. "There was too much pressure at that time, but we had to find out the reason." Li Min said that Xiaomi has never been vague about the quality requirements of the product.

The team and suppliers sorted out all possible reasons from hardware to software, and the technicians directly entered the factory to conduct nearly a month of non-stop testing, troubleshooting problems one by one, and conducting 500 to 700 stress tests on each batch of new samples (under normal circumstances, only one stress testing is required). Finally, the yield of customized chips was reduced from the highest 1000ppm to less than 50ppm, fundamentally solving the quality risk of chips, and bringing the most advanced charging experience to the long-awaited users as scheduled.

In the eyes of the engineers of Xiaomi’s charging technology team, records are meant to be broken. After achieving the 120W second charging technology, Xiaomi continued to explore the "no man’s land" in the field of second charging technology and began the research and development of the 200W second charging technology.

In order to avoid the short circuit problem that may be caused by high-power charging, the team needs to minimize the thickness of the battery pole pieces and minimize the transmission path, which brings great challenges to the processing process of the battery pole pieces. To this end, the engineers started from various aspects such as equipment improvement and process improvement. After many tuning on more than 6,000 batteries, they solved many problems such as pole piece fracture and curling. Finally, they successfully developed a 10C pole piece with a thickness of only half of the traditional pole piece, which is about the thickness of a piece of A4 paper. "At present, only Xiaomi can do it in the industry." Jiang Helin said proudly.

Those who win are powerful, and those who win are strong. In the eyes of reporters, Xiaomi’s charging technology is already leading the industry. But Xiaomi is putting pressure on itself to compete with itself in the "no man’s land" and constantly surpass itself, which is very commendable. For industrial development, this "leader" is leading the industrial chain, supply chain and quality chain to achieve a comprehensive leap, promoting the high-quality development of the smartphone industry, and accumulating more positive energy for China’s manufacturing "quality revolution".

Although Xuanyi lost the monthly sales champion in the car market at the end of 2021, it can easily win the annual sales champion in the car market with the annual sales data of more than 420,000 vehicles. Compared with winning the annual sales crown without any suspense, it may be another thing that made Dongfeng Nissan happier at the end of last year. The new version of Sylphy, Sylphy e-POWER, successfully tested the water. In December, 2021, Sylphy e-POWER achieved sales of 6,282 vehicles in the first full month of listing in China (during the Guangzhou Auto Show last year). As a Sylphy with a sales volume of 138,900, the market start of Sylphy e-POWER was quite successful. E-POWER is a similar extended-range power system, which is driven by a motor, and the engine is simply used to generate electricity. However, unlike extended-range electric vehicles, Sylphy e-POWER cannot be externally charged, so it does not belong to the category of electric vehicles.

Volkswagen LAVIDA

Sales in December: 35,905 vehicles

Sales volume in December increased by -23.41%

Chip shortage is not all bad for car companies. Take Volkswagen as an example. Due to the shortage of production capacity caused by the lack of core in mid-2021, the source of terminal cars has become tense, and the market conditions of its various models have improved significantly, and the terminal concessions for the main models have shrunk in an all-round way. LaVida is the pillar of SAIC Volkswagen in the car market. In the middle of last year, because of the shortage of car sources, LaVida’s terminal discount directly recovered about 10,000 yuan. For manufacturers, although the sales data at that time were not good-looking, the profits they got were higher. However, this situation only lasted for February and March. As the supply of LaVida gradually stabilized, the terminal discount was re-released. At present, in the terminal market, the discount of LaVida is generally above 30,000 yuan.

Toyota Corolla

Sales in December: 30,677 vehicles

Sales volume in December increased by -0.47%

After the replacement of TNGA architecture, the competitiveness of Corolla’s products has been improved a lot. The rear suspension has been changed from torsion beam to independent suspension, and the active and passive safety configuration has also been improved. The market effect is immediate. After the replacement, Corolla’s market popularity has also gone further, and it can often hand over more than 30,000 monthly sales results. In addition, it is worth mentioning that in order to meet the increasingly stringent carbon emission pressure, Toyota also equipped its main model, Corolla, with a three-cylinder engine in the domestic market, but did not cancel the four-cylinder version. The three-cylinder model is aimed at users who are more sensitive to price, and the four-cylinder turbocharged model is aimed at users who have higher requirements on quality and performance. From this point of view, it must be said that Toyota has thoroughly studied the China market.

Tesla Model 3

Sales in December: 30,289 vehicles

Sales volume in December increased by 16.05%

Tesla’s brand charm is only one of the reasons why Model 3 can continue to be popular in the China market. On the other hand, it is difficult to find an opponent who can match the product strength at the same price, which is the key to this car’s killing in the terminal market. Even though there have been public complaints and user rights protection incidents, Tesla’s popularity has basically not been affected. Choose an electric car with a budget of 300,000 yuan. After going around, you will find that there are not many other better options except Tesla Model 3. At present, in the domestic electric vehicle market, Tesla Model3 in the middle and high-end market is as strong as Hongguang MINIEV in the low-end market.

In the domestic B-class auto market in 2021, the competition for the monthly sales champion has been in Camry and
In the first half, the Accord was more dominant as a whole, while Camry won the championship with its strong strength in the second half. In December 2021, Camry was the only model in the B-class automobile market that entered the top ten list of car sales. The empowerment of TNGA architecture is definitely the most important reason for its popularity. While retaining the characteristics of Toyota’s durable and fuel-efficient products, the new generation of Camry has redesigned its appearance, breaking the stereotype of mediocre Japanese car design, catering to the preferences of young consumers with a more sporty attitude, and the accumulated user reputation in the domestic market has jointly contributed to Camry’s market performance in 2021.

Geely Emgrand

Sales in December: 24,589 vehicles

December sales growth: 27.6%

From the sales trend in 2021, it can be clearly seen that Emgrand must have experienced some major events in this year. Yes, this model that once carried the banner of its own car ushered in a model replacement in 2021. Before the listing of the fourth-generation Emgrand in September last year, the monthly sales of Emgrand had dropped to around 10,000 vehicles, which was the historical freezing point in recent years (except for the situation that was seriously affected by the epidemic in February and March of 2020). Fortunately, after the completion of the replacement, the market of Emgrand recovered quickly, and at the end of last year, it had returned to a high level of nearly 25,000 vehicles per month. Using Geely’s BMA architecture, recalibrating the powertrain and replacing it with a set of similar
The shape and interior of Emgrand has also borrowed many elements from Xingrui. The change of the fourth generation Emgrand can be said to be all-round. Although the pricing has been slightly improved, the defects cannot be concealed. Emgrand has once again set off the banner of independent cars in the field of fuel vehicles.

Byd Qin PLUS

Sales in December: 24,287 vehicles

Sales volume in December increased by -13.73%

The reason why I want to emphasize that Emgrand has re-launched the banner of autonomous cars in the field of fuel vehicles is of course for a reason, because when Emgrand fell into the market trough before and after the replacement, new star-rated autonomous cars have appeared in the domestic new energy auto market, BYD Qin PLUS (including
and
) is one of the most representative. From the soaring sales trend in 2021, we can see how popular BYD Qin PLUS is, and this data only reflects the production volume of Qin PLUS, which is far from the actual demand of the end market. In fact, Qin PLUS, especially Qin PLUS DM-i models, have long been out of stock, and it has become normal to wait for a single half year to pick up the car. Recently, it was reported that in order to meet the strong market demand, BYD is expanding its factory in Xi ‘an (mainly producing Qin series and Song series), and Qin PLUS may bring more market surprises.

Volkswagen SAGITAR

Sales in December: 23,479 vehicles

Sales volume in December increased by 10.69%

When sagitar first used the MQB platform, it was intended to make a difference in the A+ class market. Not only was the product upgraded, but the price was a little higher than that of ordinary A-class cars, but the market feedback it received was not ideal. In the end, it was only possible to stabilize sales through substantial terminal concessions, and since then it has embarked on the main cost-effective route. In 2021, FAW-Volkswagen was seriously short of cores, and its main models could not be supplied normally for several months. Sagitar was one of them, and its monthly sales once fell below 10,000 vehicles. It was not until the production capacity recovered in the fourth quarter that it surrendered the monthly sales of over 20,000 vehicles. The rapid recovery of market performance shows that sagitar has no shortage of customers in the domestic market. After all, in the A-class sedan market, sagitar’s product strength still has advantages. As long as the production capacity is guaranteed and the terminal concessions are enough, sagitar can easily rush to the high market.

Toyota Ralink

Sales in December: 21,836 vehicles

December sales growth: -4.3%

After a period of market downturn, Lei Ling was able to hand over monthly sales of over 20,000 vehicles in the last two months of last year, mainly due to the full-scale outbreak of hybrid models, especially in December last year, Lei Ling hybrid models handed over monthly sales of over 10,000 vehicles (10,232). For a long time in the past, the domestic oil-electric hybrid market has indeed been monopolized by Japanese hybrid cars, but it is quite rare that the monthly sales of hybrid models have exceeded 10,000 (in the past, the domestic oil-electric hybrid market was limited). It must be said that the independent "war" hybrid wave that emerged in 2021 made domestic consumers begin to re-understand hybrid cars, which also brought a good boost to the entire hybrid car market.
