Do you want to buy a medium-sized SUV?

Less than 200 thousand, with electromagnetic induction suspension and transparent chassis.

Before the rise of domestic cars, this kind of welfare was forgotten, but now, domestic cars are more powerful than you can imagine.

Recently, Starway, a medium-sized SUV owned by Starway brand, went on the market in Eta Ursae Majoris, and six models were launched at a price of 152,800-202,800 yuan.

This car is based on Starway M3X Mars Architecture 2.0, which is another medium-sized SUV of Starway brand after Starway Lingyun.

So, is this car worth considering?

Brand-new design language, worth as much as luxury cars?

From the first impression, Xingtu brand has two distinct characteristics.

First, the names are nice. Zhuifeng, Lanyue, Lingyun and Eta Ursae Majoris are all poetic.

Second, the face value is first-class, giving people a feeling of being bright at the moment.

And Star Way Eta Ursae Majoris is somewhat both.

Starway Eta Ursae Majoris has adopted a brand-new design language of "Aesthetics of Light". The middle net is divided into upper and lower layers. The black decorative plate at the top is integrated with the headlights full of sci-fi feeling, and the bottom is the currently popular borderless middle net, which integrates fashion, technology and atmosphere.

In terms of face value, Starway Eta Ursae Majoris can still get it.

Spacious space, how comfortable is Eta Ursae Majoris?

In China automobile market, space is the core competitiveness of a car.

For China consumers who like ostentation and extravagance, even if they don’t need it, cars with large space are comfortable to look at.

As a time-honored brand in China automobile market, Chery and its Star Road brand are of course very aware of this.

Starway Eta Ursae Majoris is positioned as a medium-sized SUV, with a body length of 4781mm and a wheelbase of 2,815 mm. It adopts a five-seat design and has obvious advantages in space among the same price models.

A car needs to look good, but also the atmosphere. It is so simple for China consumers to buy a car.

In terms of seat functions, Starway Eta Ursae Majoris is also unambiguous. Except for the lowest model, the front seats of other models all support four-way lumbar support, leg rest adjustment, heating, ventilation and other functions, and some high-profile models even arrange the heating function of the second row of seats.

In addition, automatic air conditioning, rear seat air outlet, temperature zone control and other functions are also standard in the whole system.

Large space, comfortable sitting, family members can be comfortable when traveling with them, and friends will praise them when hitchhiking. I have to say, Xingtu brand knows China people very well.

The interior layout is in line with new energy vehicles. How sincere is the configuration?

Star Road Eta Ursae Majoris is a pure fuel vehicle, but its interior layout is deeply influenced by mainstream new energy vehicles. It looks simple and atmospheric, giving people a refreshing feeling.

At the same time, this car still retains the traditional skills of "low price and high allocation" of domestic cars.

Different from ordinary fuel vehicles, Starway Eta Ursae Majoris adopts a full touch design, and makes various adjustments to various common functions through a 24.6-inch integrated curved screen, omitting most physical buttons, so the visual effect is relatively good, which is more in line with the current consumer’s operating habits.

In terms of intelligent network connection, Starway Eta Ursae Majoris is equipped with the intelligent vehicle system of Lion Ecology 5.0. With the support of Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip, it can realize powerful human-vehicle interaction such as quick start in 3 seconds, identification in 2 seconds and continuous processing of more than 20 instructions in 30 seconds.

In addition, its Iflytek Voice can also control 429 functions, which is not inferior to mainstream new energy vehicles in terms of intelligent experience.

In terms of common basic configuration, Starway Eta Ursae Majoris has played the traditional advantages of domestic high-end models, with panoramic sunroof, induction trunk, steering wheel shift and wireless charging of mobile phones as standard.

The price of this car is 152,800 yuan, but it has reached a higher level in configuration.

Powerful dynamic performance, carefully adjusted chassis.

Face value, space and configuration are all static experiences of a car, but these are not enough to attract consumers.

Starway Eta Ursae Majoris provides users with powerful dynamic performance and good control experience, and the dynamic performance is not disappointing.

Specifically, Starway Eta Ursae Majoris is equipped with a 2.0T engine, matched with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox, with a maximum power of 192kW and a maximum torque of 400N·m, which is the first echelon of the 2.0T engine.

In addition, this car also provides luxury car-class equipment such as CDC electromagnetic suspension system, Soft Stop system, chassis hydraulic vibration isolation system, all-terrain technology system, all-scene intelligent four-wheel drive system, intelligent brake-by-wire system, etc., and is equipped with up to 7 driving modes, which can easily cope with diverse and complex road conditions and further enhance the driving experience.

In terms of safety performance that consumers are concerned about, Starway Eta Ursae Majoris also tries its best to satisfy users.

This car is equipped with 12 ultrasonic radars and 5 millimeter-wave radars, which can realize 21 basic functions of ADAS. Lane keeping, lane departure warning, active braking and road traffic sign recognition are all standard.

What’s the "high-end" of Starway Eta Ursae Majoris?

Xingtu is one of the four brands owned by Chery, which is mainly positioned in the high-end market.

However, it should be noted that, including the newly listed Star Road Eta Ursae Majoris, among the models under the Star Road brand, the price of the medium and large SUV with the highest positioning is only 233,900 yuan.

Compared with the joint venture model of the same level, it still has obvious price advantage.

To some extent, the "high-end" of Xingtu brand is not reflected in the price, but in the high-end configuration.

Its price is indeed higher than other Chery cars, but it is catching up with higher-level luxury models in configuration.

Take the electromagnetic induction suspension as an example. More than 400,000 German luxury medium-sized SUVs, such as BMW X3, Audi Q5L and Mercedes-Benz GLC, were not provided, but Starway Eta Ursae Majoris put it down to the mid-range model with a price of 174,800 yuan.

This is more realistic than many brands that only achieve "high-end price". This is the high-end that many consumers really need.

Concluding remarks

In the past two years, the popularity of new energy vehicles has continued to soar, attracting a lot of attention. However, from an objective point of view, most consumers still want to choose a fuel vehicle with strong performance and very worry-free, so Starway Eta Ursae Majoris has great potential. With such strong product performance, those at the same level who play with low-priced joint venture cars should be careful.

CCTV News:When many people hear about avocado, their first impression may be the expensive imported fruit. But now, this online celebrity "foreign fruit" has taken root, blossomed and borne fruit in Menglian County, Pu ‘er City, Yunnan Province, and the domestic avocado is gradually coming to the table of consumers.

Reporter Guo Linjie:I am now in the core avocado planting base in China — — Nanya Village, Menglian County, Pu ‘er City, Yunnan Province. At present, green fruits are covered with branches, and fruit farmers are busy picking and packing.

Zhaduo, a grower in Nanya Village, Menglian County, Yunnan Province:The output and price in 2022 are not bad.

It is understood that Menglian, Yunnan and Mexico, the capital of avocado in the world, are at the same golden latitude, which is warm and sunny all year round, while the different planting altitudes greatly lengthen the ripening period of fruits, so that avocado harvesting can start in late September and last until March of the following year. Compared with imported avocados, it takes more than one month to reach the China market by sea. With the advantage of producing area, Menglian avocados can be picked at the best maturity and taste fresher.

Reporter Guo Linjie:Avocados picked from trees are transported to the sorting center. The intelligent fruit sorter beside me can sort the fruits and clean, sterilize and keep them fresh. In addition, it can also eliminate those fruits with any defects such as cracks and moths on the surface, and truly realize high-quality fruit screening.

According to the relevant person in charge, after sorting, these "quality fruits" with a weight of 70 grams or more and a complete surface will be packed in different grades, and then distributed to wholesale markets and large supermarkets by cold chain vehicles or air transportation according to the distance of their destinations, with a daily shipment of nearly 5 tons.

Rebecca, marketing staff of Menglian Industrial Investment Group Co., Ltd.:Bulk (commodity) customers account for about 90%, and the demand is very large. We promise to send out the orders of the day every day, and we must also send out fresh fruits if we work overtime.

Up to now, Menglian in Yunnan has become the largest avocado planting base in China. The planting area of avocado is 70,400 mu, and the output of fresh fruit is expected to be more than 10,000 tons.

　　[Shao Shijun, correspondent of the Global Times in Brazil] Ding Yazhi, reporter of the Global Times, has a heavy responsibility. Brazilian President Lula arrived in Shanghai on the evening of 12th and began his state visit to China. Before Lula arrived, it was reported that China Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (Brazil) Co., Ltd. successfully handled the first cross-border RMB settlement business. It is reported that the huge delegation led by Lula will sign a cooperation agreement with China, including not only soybeans, beef, iron ore, but also a satellite for protecting the Amazon rainforest environment. As a BRICS country that advocates multilateral independent diplomacy, Lula’s trip also carries the confidence of a big developing country that makes Brazil "sit on the decision-making table of the world geopolitical map again" and become a "potential mediator of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict". However, the American media expressed dissatisfaction with Lula’s visit to Huawei Innovation Center in Shanghai, and regarded it as a double blow to the US high-tech blockade against China and the US "backyard mentality". Recently, "Deutsche Welle" published two articles in succession, expressing great concern about the development of BRICS countries: "A new world currency? How will the BRICS countries affect the dollar and A New World Order? The BRICS countries provide an alternative to the West. Lula’s trip to China may further refresh the world’s understanding of BRICS cooperation.

　　Huawei’s visit "angered the United States"?

　　According to Brazil’s World Wide Web, Lula’s first activity in China was to attend the inauguration ceremony of former Brazilian President Rousseff as the president of the BRICS New Development Bank on the morning of the 13th. On the afternoon of 13th, Lula planned to meet with representatives of business groups from infrastructure, technology and automobile industries, among which meetings with BYD and Huawei were on the agenda. On the 14th, Lula will hold talks with the Chairman of the Supreme Leader in Beijing. At that time, he will witness the signing of more than 20 bilateral agreements, including cooperation in building the sixth China-Pakistan Earth resources satellite and trade settlement in local currency.

　　Among them, Lula’s visit to Huawei’s innovation center in Shanghai on the 13th received special attention from the US media. Bloomberg News reported on the 12th that Lula’s move "may annoy the United States" because Washington has always accused Huawei of "participating in espionage activities against the United States". At the press conference before Lula’s visit to China, Brazilian Foreign Minister Vieira said that Brazil hopes to maintain good and close relations with everyone around the world, and visiting Huawei should not be regarded as provocation. "Since the president visits other countries, he will visit companies in this country." He said that Lula was invited by Huawei, which has been operating in Brazil for more than 20 years. In 2021, the company won a tender for the supply of equipment to implement 5G technology in Brazil. Also in 2021, the Federal Communications Commission of the United States blacklisted the company as one of the five China technology companies that were considered as "unacceptable risks" to national security. Vieira told reporters that Lula’s visit to Huawei sent a message that Brazil will not "stand in the line" in the struggle between the United States and the technology giant.

　　Li Haidong, a professor at China Foreign Affairs University, told the Global Times reporter on the 12th, is it necessary for any foreign company to have ties with China’s high-tech enterprises, or for leaders to visit such enterprises, to be a reason to "anger the United States"? This just reflects the morbid psychology of the United States towards China. This reaction of the US media is not only a disrespect for the Brazilian President himself and his itinerary, but also a reflection of America’s excessive sense of self-superiority.

　　Brazil opens RMB settlement

　　"China Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (Brazil) Co., Ltd. has successfully handled the first cross-border RMB settlement business recently, and both trading parties no longer use the US dollar as the intermediate currency". With Lula’s visit to China, the news that Brazil’s cross-border RMB settlement business has successfully landed came on the 12th. Qatar Al Jazeera said that earlier this year, China and Pakistan signed a memorandum of cooperation to establish a RMB clearing house, aiming at promoting bilateral trade and investment and weakening the dominant position of the US dollar. This indicates that enterprises of the two countries have more currency choices in trade, and also reflects the increasingly close relationship between China and Pakistan. According to a briefing released by Standard & Poor’s Global Market Intelligence this month, the total bilateral trade between China and Brazil in 2022 was US$ 150 billion, an increase of 10.1% over the previous year. According to the data compiled by MIT, Brazil mainly exports iron ore, soybeans and crude oil to China, and semiconductor devices now account for the largest share of China’s exports to Brazil.

　　India’s First Post said that Brazil and China now use RMB to trade with each other, which helps to establish the status of RMB as a challenger to the international currency and the US dollar. India has also been trying to get rid of the dollar, and even the initiative to create a "new BRICS currency" will be discussed at the annual summit of BRICS leaders in South Africa in August. According to Sputnik news agency & radio’s report on the 11th, the total share of RMB trading in Russian foreign exchange market rose to a record 39% in March, while the share of US dollar fell to 34%.

　　Lan Qingxin, director of the BRICS Research Center in university of international business and economics, said in an interview with the Global Times on the 12th that a number of bilateral local currency settlement channels have been established within the BRICS countries. In the future, more and more countries will seek to implement local currency settlement in their foreign trade and get rid of their dependence on the US dollar in bilateral trade. This has an impact on the hegemony of the US dollar and fully reflects the importance of economic cooperation among BRICS countries.

　　"With the expectation of trade and peace"

　　"Lula visited China with the expectation of trade and peace." CNN said on the 12th that the Brazilian delegation accompanying Lula to China included businessmen, governors, parliamentarians and ministers, and the trade between the two countries "has increased 21 times since Lula’s first visit to China in 2004". Reuters said that the huge delegation led by Lula included eight cabinet ministers, including Environment Minister Silva, and five governors from the northeastern state of Brazil. Silva told Reuters that Brazil hopes that China will set up a fund to help Brazil’s forest restoration and sustainable development, including green hydrogen production. According to two people familiar with the matter, Brazilian aircraft manufacturer Embraer may sign an agreement to sell 20 commercial aircraft to an airline in China.

　　The Associated Press said that China is Brazil’s largest export market, buying tens of billions of dollars worth of soybeans, beef, iron ore, poultry, pulp, sugar cane, cotton and crude oil from Brazil every year. Brazil is also China’s largest investor in Latin America. "Brazil can’t refuse the benefits brought by China. The United States has no ability to absorb Brazilian exports like China, and it is not as good as China in terms of investment and infrastructure. " The Brazilian website "Brasildefato" said on the 11th that the visit coincided with the increasingly tense Sino-US relations. The cooperation and achievements of Lula’s first visit to non-western countries during his third presidency will be in sharp contrast with the results of his visit to the White House a month ago. The United States promised to invest in the Amazon Fund and discussed "possible" semiconductor cooperation with Brazil. However, so far, the financial commitment has not been fulfilled and the negotiations have not developed into an agreement.

　　The international influence of "BRIC" is increasing.

　　Recently, an official of Tunisia told Russian satellite news agency that his country was considering the possibility of joining the BRICS countries in the context of the deadlock in negotiations with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). At present, Algeria, Iran and Argentina have applied to join the BRICS countries. Many countries, including Egypt, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Mexico, Nigeria, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, Thailand and Turkey, are maintaining close dialogue with BRICS countries. This proves the international appeal of the BRICS mechanism.

　　"The new world order?" "Deutsche Welle" said on the 10th that the BRICS countries offered choices outside the West. This mechanism has now become a platform for diplomacy and financing for development and construction, and exists outside the "mainstream countries" in the West. The BRICS has now developed into an intergovernmental cooperation platform similar to the Group of Seven. The BRICS countries have launched a new development bank as an alternative to the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. In addition, they created a liquidity mechanism called "Emergency Reserve Arrangement" to support member countries that have difficulties in payment. These initiatives are attractive not only to the BRICS countries themselves, but also to many other developing countries and emerging market economies. Since the outbreak of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the BRICS countries have further alienated the so-called "West". Maiehold, head of the Berlin Science and Politics Foundation, said that today, the BRICS countries have become a forum with rising sovereignty and independent ideas rather than "confronting" the West.

　　The Times of India recently reported that the proportion of G7 GDP based on purchasing power parity in world GDP dropped from 50.42% in 1982 to 30.39% in 2022, while the proportion of BRICS countries rose from 10.66% in 1982 to 31.59% in 2022. It took the BRICS countries nearly 40 years to catch up with the G-7.

　　Lan Qingxin said that the BRICS cooperation mechanism has made great progress in recent years, especially in economic and trade investment, digital economy, science and technology, green and low carbon. The BRICS cooperation mechanism bears the expectations of many developing countries and has produced a demonstration effect of "South-South cooperation". The "BRICS circle of friends" will expand the representation and voice of emerging market countries in global economic governance.

All-media reporter Tan Faxin

Entering the twelfth lunar month, the pace of the Spring Festival is getting closer and closer, and handling new year’s goods and preparing for the reunion dinner has become a matter of concern to most citizens. Recently, the reporter visited a number of hotels and restaurants in the city and learned that before the New Year’s Eve, the reservation for New Year’s Eve dinner was "hard to find". Many hotels and restaurants were fully booked after the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, and only a few halls had seats left.

Through the reporter’s visit, I learned that in addition to going out to eat the group annual banquet, many citizens choose to make the group annual banquet at home, and some also invite chefs and cooks to come to the door to serve and leave the group annual banquet at home, which not only saves trouble but also has the atmosphere of the New Year.

Reservation for the annual banquet of the restaurant group is "hard to find a table"

In order to seize the rare business opportunity of the Chinese New Year, the merchants took precautions, put up a publicity banner to book the annual banquet of the group one or two months in advance, and some even launched a series of preferential activities, making the idea of the Chinese New Year early. In anticipation of the Spring Festival, the citizens put the group annual banquet on the family’s important agenda early, and willingly "pay big money" for a comfortable year.

On January 10, Mr. Wang, who worked in a public institution in the city, was depressed. On the morning of the same day, he called six hotels in the city to book the group annual banquet, and they were all told that the reservation was full and only a few seats were available for reservation. "I didn’t expect that I couldn’t book it more than ten days in advance. It didn’t seem so popular in previous years?" Mr. Wang introduced that in the past two years, he and his family had a reunion dinner in the city hotel, and the booking time was equivalent to this year. Although the price of the banquet was higher than usual, there was no phenomenon that seats could not be booked.

"We don’t have a private room now. If we want to book the group annual banquet, we can only spell the table in the hall." The staff of a restaurant near the sewage treatment plant in Zhoucheng said that at the end of December last year, the reservation of the group annual banquet had already begun, and even the reservation hall should be "the first to strike first."

The staff of a large restaurant in Shinan Ancient City told the reporter that there were many people who booked the group annual banquet this year. As early as last October, someone called to make an appointment, but the hotel didn’t start accepting reservations until December. "The private rooms from the 24th to 28th of the twelfth lunar month have already been booked, and there are few big private rooms left at noon." It is understood that the restaurant began to have a holiday on the 29th of the twelfth lunar month.

The reporter found that compared with small private rooms and large private rooms, during the Spring Festival, thousands of families were reunited, and large private rooms were obviously more popular.

Family dinner chefs come to cook.

Do you want to eat New Year’s Eve at home or in a hotel? This is a problem. Eating at home has an atmosphere, but the food is more homely and it is also very troublesome to cook. Eating food and service in the hotel is good and easy, but there is no feeling of Chinese New Year more and more! "Many city residents began to consider the issue of reunion dinner.

As the Spring Festival approaches, the group annual banquets of major hotels and restaurants have already been booked out. Don’t worry, just buy a table of semi-finished reunion dinner home, or book a chef’s home service directly, without doing it yourself.

"When a chef cooks at home, he can enjoy the chef’s special service at home". The reporter visited and learned that there are not a few people who provide on-site service for the chefs of the group annual banquet. Some chefs usually pick up the business of cooking at home, but at the peak of the group annual banquet at the end of the year, orders are constantly coming, and some can’t accept orders because of schedule conflicts. Citizens only need to make a phone call to make a reservation, and determine the number of people to eat and the contents of the menu, so they can wait for the chef to cook at home. Some citizens are too busy to ask chefs to help them buy food.

In addition to booking a chef through usual contact, you can also invite a "cook" through a housekeeping company.

Liu Feifei, a citizen, works in an enterprise in could, so he can have a holiday on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month. In previous years, the group annual banquet could only be booked in the hotel. This year, she chose to do the group annual banquet at home. "I was busy with my work and didn’t have time to prepare. I heard that a friend usually invited chefs to come to the door for family dinners, so she tried to contact several chefs. After several times of communication, the chef’s schedule was finally confirmed. At noon on the 29 th of the twelfth lunar month, the chef was invited to make a group annual banquet. " Liu Feifei said, before eating the group annual banquet in the hotel, I always felt almost the atmosphere, so I had the idea of inviting the chef home. Unexpectedly, many citizens have the same idea. She contacted several chefs to determine the right time.

Why did you choose to invite a chef to cook at home instead of going directly to the hotel? Mr. Zhang said that on the one hand, it is more economical to have a family dinner, on the other hand, it is more convenient to invite chefs to visit and reduce waste. "All the ingredients are purchased by yourself, which is cheap and reassuring. Counting the remuneration for the chef saves a lot of money than in the hotel. Moreover, everyone also likes the atmosphere of reunion at home. "

"The raw materials of dishes can be purchased by customers themselves or given to us, because some ingredients, ingredients and sauces are difficult for customers to prepare at home, which will affect the taste of some dishes." Master Xie said that before, he used to cook and cook for others empty-handed. Now, many people try to save trouble and simply let them arrange the whole banquet.

The group annual banquet is a "lively and convenient"

The purpose of the vast majority of citizens booking the group annual banquet is very clear — — That is lively and easy.

Wang Yuchen, a 29-year-old citizen, said that he and his wife are both working in the company, and they are under great pressure at ordinary times, especially at the end of the year. Almost all the preparations for the Chinese New Year are carried out in a hurry. A few days ago, they were busy doing cleaning at home until late at night, so tired that their backs ached. Therefore, he decided to change the group annual banquet from home to the hotel. Although the cost is much higher, there is no need to prepare dishes a few days in advance and clean up after meals. The picture is convenient and easy, and you can take the opportunity to make time to chat with your family and free your wife from the tedious housework. "It is worthwhile to spend more money!"

Ms. Xiao, a citizen, said that in the hotel for the New Year, she can feel the joy and excitement of the Spring Festival. She believes that the Chinese New Year is to be lively, and it is very pleasant to have a reunion dinner in a happy atmosphere.

Liu Yuhang, who works in other places, just returned to Enshi on January 6th. As soon as he got home and put down his luggage, he rushed to a nearby hotel to book a table for the New Year’s party and informed his relatives and friends. He said that according to the usual practice in previous years, in order to spend the next year, he would go to various food markets and supermarkets to buy vegetables, chickens, ducks and fish, and then rush home with big bags, wash vegetables, kill fish and cook, and work hard for a while … … After eating a reunion dinner, he felt extremely tired from running around. This year, he decided to entertain relatives and friends in the hotel. Liu Yuhang told reporters with a smile, comparatively speaking, it is much easier to have a group dinner in a hotel, and it can relax the body and mind.
