The man said that Brother Xiao Yang sold fake Moutai in the live stream, and 14 of the 24 bottles were identified as fake! Three Sheep responded: The third-party appraisal agency is not authoritative

  On June 21, the Three Sheep Network passed"Crazy Little Brother Yang – Three Sheep" posted a statement saying that some consumers bought Moutai liquor in the company’s live stream a year ago, went to Moutai’s official anti-counterfeiting office to identify it as true, and were identified as fake by the so-called third-party appraisal studio.

  Three Sheep said that the company has always adhered to the guarantee of genuine products and promoted genuine Moutai wine to consumers in the live stream. So far, the products sold have never been officially identified as counterfeit wine.

  Three Sheep emphasizes that, as a high-value special category, the appraisal of Moutai liquor should be based on the official anti-counterfeiting rights protection phone number announced by Moutai to identify the authenticity of the official appraisal agency where it is located. The appraisal results of any third-party appraisal agency are not authoritative and legal.

  Three Sheep also said that if the Moutai wine purchased in the company’s live stream is officially identified as a counterfeit product, the company will compensate consumers in advance in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, and strictly investigate the legal responsibility of the seller.

  According to the official news of Henan TV station "City Report" on June 20, Mr. Zhang (pseudonym) from Wuhan, Hubei said that in May last year, he bought 10 bottles of Moutai at the "Jiujia Liquor Store" Douyin store under the recommendation of Crazy Brother Yang’s live stream. After being identified as true by the Moutai Anti-Counterfeiting Office, he purchased another 14 bottles for collection. This year, Mr. Zhang saw Moutai’s counterfeiting methods on the short video platform, which made him suspicious of the Moutai wine he snapped up, so he found a third-party platform for identification. As a result, 14 of the 24 bottles of Moutai were fake, and the "Jiujia Liquor Store" Douyin store also showed that it was "returned from the store".

  When the reporter came to Anhui Hefei Three Sheep Group to inquire, the staff said that when they cooperated with the "Jiujia Liquor franchise store" that sold the batch of Moutai, they conducted a specific review of the merchant’s qualifications and product procedures. But because the goods were not sent from their warehouse, there is no guarantee that the merchant will have "adulterated" behavior. Similarly, Mr. Zhang tore off the label and opened the wine box with the consent of the merchant for identification, so there is no way to prove whether the wine has been transferred. If the merchant sells fake wine, they will also hold the merchant accountable.

  Daily Economic News Comprehensive Henan TV Station "City Report", public news

Seeking change can only lead to progress (New economic orientation · Key notes for small and medium-sized enterprises ④)

Drawing: Wang Zheping, Data source: Ministry of Commerce, etc

  Although summer has entered, Wang Wenjun still has lingering fears when he recalls the Spring Festival that has just passed.

  The sudden arrival of the epidemic caught him off guard, who was already preparing for the hot business of the Spring Festival. On January 25, Chengdu issued a notice banning the holding of group catering business activities, including rural self-organized banquets and dam banquets.

  Wang Wenjun is the founder of a well-known hot pot restaurant in Chengdu. In Sichuan, where there are more than 30,000 hot pot restaurants. Affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, the peak season of the catering industry has dimmed without warning. A series of difficulties have weighed on Wang Wenjun’s head due to market closures, inventory backlogs, labor and rental costs.

  Every day when I open my eyes, more than 100,000 yuan is gone

  Selling vegetables to reduce wages, stop losses and reduce costs, and save yourself to protect your vitality

  "We walked all the way from a small hot pot restaurant with only 17 tables, and we have never encountered such a situation. The store is closed, and the income is gone; the salary needs to be paid, and the rent needs to be paid… As soon as we open our eyes every day, more than 100,000 yuan is gone. Coupled with the excess inventory of ingredients prepared in advance, the electricity bill of the freezer alone can’t stand it." Under multiple pressures, Wang Wenjun "almost lost half of his head".

  Survival is the first priority. Wang Wenjun and other company managers together, as soon as possible to save themselves from the siege, is the top priority.

  On the one hand, they would sell the excess food stock to nearby residents at a fair price or even at a discount. On the other hand, they would inform employees in the city to take turns to work, and non-local employees would work from home. The management would take the lead in adjusting salaries, and only keep the basic salary and social security, further reducing labor costs.

  "The rent is a big part of the cost of the hot pot store. We have to thank the competent authorities for helping us coordinate the property. We reduced the rent by 1.20 million yuan before and after, and also won tax incentives." Wang Wenjun sighed.

  To reduce inventory, reduce costs, and reduce rents, although the hot pot restaurant suffered heavy losses during the closing period of more than a month, "fortunately, it saved itself in time and didn’t hurt its vitality". What he didn’t expect was that the originally inconspicuous takeaway service and the live broadcast that he had never set foot in had become the "savior" of his next reorganization.

  Dine-in and takeout, who is the protagonist?

  Meet demand, expand takeout, and promote franchise stores

  "You have a new takeaway order! Please pay attention to check it!" As soon as he walked into the lobby of the Chengdu Huabaifang store, he heard the pleasant bell of the online platform. The store manager said that the takeaway received more than 1,500 orders a day at most, and the turnover exceeded 500,000 yuan.

  In 2016, the company launched a takeaway service. "But hot pot still has a taste for dine-in, and takeout has always been a’supporting role ‘." Wang Wenjun said that after the resumption of work and production, the demand for takeout has increased greatly. There were only two stores to deliver takeout, but soon it increased to nine. "We make takeaway posters every day, and mobilize employees to forward them together with the official Weibo and WeChat, so that relatives, friends and more residents know that we can deliver takeout. In a week, the number of takeaway orders has skyrocketed from more than 300 orders per day to more than 1,000 orders."

  In order to attract a franchise partner, the company urgently formulated a support strategy, actively arranged takeaway operation equipment, sorted out operation manuals and videos, and launched "fully sealed hot pot takeaway service" in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Xi’an and other places. In addition to the takeaway platform, the company’s WeChat official account also opened the online ordering entrance.

  The delivery staff delivered goods without contact, carrying health certificates and peace of mind cards with them. When there were many orders, Wang Wenjun himself also rode an electric car and became a "delivery brother".

  The takeaway area is limited, what should I do if I can’t deliver it?

  Live streaming, cross-border cooperation, new retail

  "I want to eat hot pot, but I live too far away to deliver food, and I can’t make it myself. What should I do?" A few days after the delivery service was resumed, this message in the background of Weibo attracted Wang Wenjun’s attention and thought.

  "Although it can’t be delivered, we can teach them how to make hot pot through online live broadcast." His idea was immediately in line with a live broadcast platform, and the live broadcast room was quickly set up.

  "Our main feature is’spicy ‘, so the hot pot base will use three kinds of chili peppers: sea pepper, millet spicy, and devil spicy. Soak it in warm water before serving in the pot and then smash it. Combining the flavors will produce a unique fragrance." During the live broadcast, the chef carefully reminded that when frying the hot pot base, the onion, ginger, and garlic should be fried in the pot until golden in turn and then quickly removed, so as to avoid the mushy taste, spicy but not dry. The "take home "-like explanation, the feedback is gratifying.

  "Although the preparation was rushed and we went LIVE at the meal point, there were still more than 87,000 netizens guarding the live stream in the first live stream, indicating that our live stream was too’dinner ‘." Wang Wenjun said that while the chef was live "teaching", he also launched his own various base material bags, which were sold with "significant hot pot other" such as chicken in bowls and self-heating rice. Consumers can place orders online.

  "I’m really about to cry, I’m going to buy the materials" "The base material is not easy to fry, but it is convenient and affordable to place an order online"… The enthusiastic interaction of the audience brought great confidence to Wang Wenjun. Strike while the iron is hot, he immediately planned and launched activities such as "Contactless Takeaway Delivery with confidence" with local media in Chengdu, and completed more than ten live broadcast activities of eating hot pot at home. "I didn’t expect the effect of cross-border cooperation to be so good, and the live broadcast can’t stop once it starts. Barber shops, gyms, milk, beer and other brands and stores have come to us to cooperate and provide our diners with products and vouchers through takeaway."

  "Boss! Another hairy belly!" As night fell, Wang Wenjun’s hot pot restaurant rang out the familiar call for food. On March 26, Chengdu fully resumed the normal business activities of catering and other service industries.

  After many months, looking at the diners queuing outside the door, although Wang Wenjun was no longer anxious and confused, his nervous tension still did not relax. "Whether it is takeout or live broadcast, it is all’wartime blood transfusion ‘. The epidemic has survived really hard, and it is also a rare stress testing. It forces us to re-examine and think about how to make efforts in the new retail and intelligent fields in the next step, and improve the ability of’postwar blood making’."

  Reporter’s notes

  Improve your ability and stay calm

  Affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, our country’s catering consumption has been hit hard before and after the Spring Festival. Some catering companies have responded to market changes to face difficulties. The current difficulties have passed, and the long-term development path still needs to be considered. Traditional eating habits such as shared meals and joint meals are changing, and consumers’ consideration of safety and health is increasing, which may have a more far-reaching impact.

  In this context, many catering companies have turned their attention to the new retail sector, grabbing share through online sales and processing special dishes into standardized goods. Some companies have tasted the sweetness for the first time, but for most small and medium-sized catering enterprises, this is still a new topic. Not only test the financial strength, talent accumulation level, but also test the ability to integrate market resources.

  On the one hand, keep up with the changes in consumer psychology, advocate the meal sharing system, cultivate eating habits such as "public chopsticks and spoons", and promote the healthy development of catering culture; on the other hand, innovate the way of catering consumption, do refined management, find a development path in line with their own brand positioning, and transform and upgrade in a timely manner. Only by truly improving the "immunity" of the enterprise can we not be surprised and turn threats into opportunities.

Recruiting agents, Hengchi 5 offline, can Hengda Automobile make a comeback?

Text | Online Travel, Author | Zhou Xiongfei

I’ve been very busy lately. 

Recently, Hengchi, a brand owned by Evergrande Automobile, posted a message on its official Weibo and "authorized agent recruitment".In its recruitment details page, it not only shows the operation model of the future vehicle sales channel, but also stipulates the conditions for joining, such as agreeing with the development model of Hengchi and the registered capital shall not be less than 5 million yuan.

In addition, Hengchi also calibrated the store construction standards for franchise, such as exhibition hall area and headroom details, and listed the franchise process, which shows that Hengchi has made a very detailed description of the agent’s franchise. 

At the same time as the authorized agent joining, there are also offline experience activities for Hengchi 5 models. 

According to the official introduction of Hengchi, during the "May Day" period, its offline experience stores in Guangzhou and Tianjin held experience activities for Hengchi 5 models. In fact, since the end of March this year, there have been some news in the industry about the landing of Hengchi 5 offline experience stores. 

As early as mid-January this year, Hengchi officially announced that the first car of Hengchi 5 was officially rolled off the production line from the factory, 12 days earlier than the original schedule.It is worth noting that the Hengchi 5 appeared in the MIIT new car declaration catalogue in November last year. 

From the launch of the first car of Hengchi 5, to the holding of offline experience activities, and now to the opening of the agent franchise, this series of actions seems to announce that Hengchi 5 has entered the countdown stage of mass production.But the industry is full of doubts about whether Hengchi can achieve this goal. 

Hengda has embarked on the road of new energy vehicle manufacturing since it acquired car companies in 2019, and launched nine models at the Shanghai Auto Show in 2021, which once detonated the entire auto show.But then not only did none of these models actually go into mass production, but Evergrande itself was also embroiled in a storm of shutdowns and debt. 

By January this year, the models that could achieve mass production had changed from the original 9 models to the Hengchi 5 model, but to achieve mass production, it was necessary to have sufficient cash flow to ensure stable production capacity.According to the performance data released by Evergrande Automobile at the end of August last year, it has accumulated a loss of 18.83 billion yuan as of the first half of 2021, and the loss is in the trend of expanding year after year. 

It is precisely because there is no money that Evergrande will choose a different franchise system from the "Wei Xiaoli" direct sales model in the establishment of sales channels.However, in the industry’s opinion, although Hengda’s channel joining threshold is low, there should not be many agents willing to join due to the well-known predicament that Hengda is currently in. 

Today, although Evergrande seems to be on the right track step by step, it is still mired in a fog of uncertainty. 

Evergrande Auto is one step closer to selling cars on the market. 

On the last day of the "May Day" holiday, an investment page about "authorized agent recruitment" appeared on Hengchi’s official Weibo.In this investment promotion introduction, Hengchi provides a detailed list of sales models, store construction standards, investment promotion policies, qualification requirements, and franchise processes. 

In terms of sales model, Hengchi said it would adopt a model of order-based sales and asset-light operations.Order-based selling, in short, is to arrange factories to produce according to the order volume, and then deliver the produced products to consumers. This approach can reduce the pressure on inventory compared with the mainstream warehouse sales in the industry, which are made first and then sold to the market. In order to achieve the purpose of asset-light operation. 

Asset-light operations are also reflected in the establishment of a sales center.According to the requirements given by Hengchi, its sales center needs to be established in the automotive business district, with an exhibition hall area of 200-300 square meters, an exhibition area of more than 150 square meters, and a clearance height of 3.5 meters.

Looking at this store construction standard alone, it seems to be very demanding, but in the industry it is the opposite. 

"The’car business district ‘required by Hengchi to build a store is not the shopping mall business district laid out by new forces such as NIO and Xiaopeng, but an area such as the car city in the suburbs of the city. In the car city, the general 4S store will start with 2,000 square meters, compared to Hengchi’s 200-300 square meter sales center, which is too small."Liu Bin, domestic regional sales manager of the Mercedes-Benz brand, explained to Connected Travel. 

Perhaps this is why Hengchi will position the sales center as "small and refined". According to Hengchi’s plan, such a sales center will support services such as sales and test drives. This also means that the completed Hengchi sales center will be more functionally biased towards the stores currently established by "Wei Xiaoli". 

Similar to the store construction standards, the agent qualification requirements listed by Hengchi also have higher restrictions in the eyes of the outside world, but in fact the threshold is also very low.According to Liu Bin, although Hengchi requires the registered capital to reach 5 million yuan, it does not require the actual payment of 5 million yuan, which is a lower threshold for joining.

According to the latest "Company Law" and related regulations, at present, only the total registered capital of a company needs to be registered, and it is not mandatory to submit a capital verification report, which means that there is no need to pay all the total registered capital at the beginning. 

In comparison, other automakers have higher requirements for authorized franchisees. 

Taking XPeng Motors as an example, as one of the new forces in domestic car manufacturing, although the layout of sales channels is mainly direct sales like NIO and Ideal, it has also opened up some franchise channels on this basis. 

According to its official website,To become an agent of Xiaopeng, it must have no less than 3 4S stores, mid-to-high-end brands are preferred, and the annual revenue of the automotive business sector needs to reach more than 100 million yuan, and the asset-liability ratio is less than 70% "red line". 

In Liu Bin’s opinion, if according to the standard of Hengchi, the investment of a sales center will be very small, based on the agent’s ready-made 4S store, plus hundreds of thousands of renovations, the overall cost will be about 100-2 million yuan. 

For the average luxury brand 4S store, the cost of decoration and equipment alone will reach tens of millions of yuan, which is completely different from Hengchi’s playing style. 

In terms of the joining process, Hengchi has also made some simplification. 

In comparison with Hengchi and Xiaopeng’s joining process, although both parties have as many as five steps in the process, including submitting an application, qualification evaluation, signing a store construction agreement, store construction, and store acceptance.But in terms of details, Xiaopeng needs to ask the agent to pay a security deposit in the process of signing the store construction agreement, but Hengchi does not have this requirement. 

According to Liu Bin, generally speaking, the brand will charge a deposit for the agent when joining, such as Xiaopeng’s deposit of about 800,000 yuan, which is a means for the brand to restrain the agent.For Hengchi, it may be to shorten the agent joining process and time, to save this link first, but this does not mean that Hengchi will not charge a security deposit later. 

In addition, in terms of joining application, Hengchi and Xiaopeng also have differences. By looking at the application forms of both parties, we found that Xiaopeng’s application form is a document file. In addition to the basic information such as the applicant’s name and company name, it also needs to fill in the company’s equity structure and its own advantages. As a whole, it is more formal and detailed. 

In contrast, Hengchi’s application form is not a formal document, but a simple Mini Program.In terms of content, you only need to fill in the applicant’s name, company name, current operating brand, and other basic information, which is much simpler than the Xiaopeng application.

From the lower standards for building a store, to the omission of the franchise process, to the simplification of the franchise application,In the industry, Hengda Automobile is likely to further reduce the threshold for agents to authorize franchise and shorten the franchise process, in order to attract more agents to join and accelerate the layout of sales channels. 

And all this preparation is also for the purpose of better selling the car in the future. 

The production time of Hengchi 5 is getting closer and closer. 

According to a recent announcement by Evergrande Automobile,The Hengchi 5 will go into mass production on June 22 this year.Hengda Motor President Liu Yongzhuo also said in March this year that the work of Hengchi 5 is progressing smoothly and is making final preparations for the launch of Hengchi 5 for mass production.

The reason why Hengda Automobile officials are confident to announce such news is also because Hengchi 5 has had a series of positive developments. 

In mid-October last year, Hengda held a strategic partner conference at its Tianjin production base. At the meeting, Liu Yongzhuo said that Hengda Automobile started a three-month car-building battle to ensure that the first production car "Hengchi 5" was rolled off the production line early next year. 

In order to ensure the smooth rollout of Hengchi 5, Hengda Automobile had mobilized core R & D teams from Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen to support Hengda Automobile’s Tianjin production base. The Tianjin factory, which had previously defaulted on payments from suppliers, also resumed production at that time and accelerated the progress. 

Facts have proved that Hengchi 5 went offline as scheduled this year.On January 12 this year, Hengchi issued a notice on its official Weibo, announcing that the first production model of the Hengchi brand, Hengchi 5, had been rolled off the production line at the Tianjin factory, 12 days earlier than originally planned. 

A month later, in the 353rd batch of car declaration information released by MIIT, the name of Hengchi 5 appeared in the public information. It should be noted that this is the second time this model has appeared in the public list. 

As early as last November, Hengchi 5 had appeared in the MIIT 350 batch of vehicle product announcements. According to the information given at the time, the model was manufactured by Hengda New Energy Automobile (Tianjin) Co., Ltd.

According to Hengda Automobile’s model planning, Hengchi 5 length, width and height are 4725mm, 1925mm and 1688mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2780mm. From the size point of view, Hengchi 5 belongs to the compact SUV model like Xiaopeng G3 and Weimar EX5; the price will be below 200,000 yuan, and the standard Audi Q3, BMW X1 and other models. 

From the appearance perspective, the Hengchi 5 features a streamlined body and a hidden door handle, which is in line with the mainstream design style in the industry as a whole. 

The body of Hengchi 5 is equipped with a drive motor from United Electronics, with a peak power of 150kW and a rated power of 60kW; the electronic appliances have chosen a full-domain control architecture jointly developed with Bosch; and the power battery is equipped with a lithium iron phosphate battery from Ningde era. 

In terms of power performance, Hengchi 5 accelerates from zero to 100 kilometers for 7-8 seconds, with a maximum speed of 180km/h, and a CLTC cruising range of 602 kilometers. According to First Electric Network, Hengchi 5 will also be equipped with the H-SMART OS Hengchi intelligent network system jointly built with Tencent. Based on this system, the model can achieve L2 + level automatic driving assistance. 

In the industry’s opinion, Hengchi 5’s entry into the MIIT public list means that Hengchi 5 has passed the review of relevant departments and is eligible for listing and sales.After all, the publication of vehicle products into MIIT is a necessary review process before the product is launched. 

During this year’s "May Day" period, just as Hengchi started recruiting agents, it also held static experience sessions of Hengchi 5 in Guangzhou and Tianjin Experience Centers. This was also the first time that Hengchi 5 production cars were offline to the public.

Although the experience activity of Hengchi 5 was officially opened during the "May Day" period,However, according to Wired Travel, the Hengchi Experience Center in Guangzhou was launched in March this year, and its location is also located in the business district of Guangzhou. The Hengchi 5 exhibition car was also installed in the store at that time. 

From the visits and reports of many media, it can be seen that the Hengchi 5 exhibition car on display in Guangzhou and Tianjin Hengchi Experience Center and the model data announced by MIIT have not changed much, and belong to the final form before mass production and listing. 

Now, whether it is Hengchi’s 5 first cars offline and offline experience, or the opening of the agent franchise model,In the eyes of the outside world, it is a phenomenon that Hengda Automobile and Hengchi are on the right track of car manufacturing.Therefore, many people began to reflect on the future of Hengda Automobile. 

It is undeniable that Hengda Automobile is currently riddled with holes. 

On March 21 this year, Hengda Motor issued a suspension notice, saying that at the request of the company, its shares were temporarily suspended from trading at 9 am that day. 

Regarding the reason for the suspension, Evergrande Automobile said in the "inside information" announcement issued later,Due to the significant changes in the operation of the company’s real estate sector since the second half of last year, a large number of additional audit procedures have been added for this year, coupled with the related impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, according to the company’s current information, the company cannot complete the audit procedures on schedule.

Evergrande also said that due to the unfinished audit work, it was unable to submit the audited performance data as of December 31, 2021 by March 31 this year in accordance with the listing rules.This also means that due to Hengda’s failure to submit last year’s performance data on time, it was forced to implement a suspension. 

According to Tiger Securities data, Connected Travel has indeed seen Hengda Automobile Hong Kong stock has been suspended, and its share price and market value have also stayed at HK $3.2/share and HK $34.70 billion. 

By looking at the stock price and market value performance of Hengda Automobile since its listing in 2008, we found that it reached its highest value in February 2021, when its share price reached HK $69/share and its market value reached HK $60.83 billion. 

In contrast, the current share price of Hengda Automobile has fallen by 95.3%, and the market value has even evaporated 26.13 billion Hong Kong dollars. 

Although Hengda Automobile has not handed over the annual performance data, but at the end of August last year, it announced the performance data of last year’s mid-term. According to the data, Hengda Automobile’s revenue in the first half of the year was 6.92 billion yuan, an increase of 53.5% year-on-year. 

In terms of net loss, Hengda Automobile recorded 4.79 billion yuan, down 110.51% year-on-year. Such losses began in 2018, and the net losses in 2018-2020 were 1.428 billion yuan, 4.947 billion yuan and 7.665 billion yuan respectively.It can be seen that its losses are expanding year by year, and as of the first half of 2021, Hengda Automobile has accumulated losses of 18.83 billion yuan. 

According to Wind data, Hengda Automobile’s cash and cash equivalents in 2018-2020 were 1.60 billion yuan, 9.90 billion yuan and 10.50 billion yuan respectively. Although its cash reserves were still growing slightly as of December 31, 2020, its total liabilities also increased significantly in these years. From 2018 to 2020, its total liabilities were 22.80 billion yuan, 94.70 billion yuan and 155.90 billion yuan respectively.

Based on the above performance data, Hengda Automobile is currently mired in debt and insufficient funds.Due to this, Hengda Automobile announced in August last year that it would sell some of its projects and assets in order to repay its debt. 

At present, there is no news of selling assets for money, and Hengda Automobile, which is short of money, wants to establish sales channels to sell cars. In Liu Bin’s opinion, Hengda Automobile can only choose to invest less in the franchise model to establish a sales network in order to achieve this goal. 

But Liu Bin also believes that although Hengda Auto offers a relatively low threshold for agents to join, it is easy for general agents to join, but it is very likely that not many agents will choose to join the Hengda Auto brand. After all, to sell cars to make money, the premise is that the cars sold must be competitive. 

However, for Hengchi 5, it is difficult to have this strength. 

First of all, from the appearance point of view, the design of Hengchi 5 belongs to the standard, and there are not many bright spots; in terms of interior decoration, from the current public information, although it has a triple-screen design, it is different from the two-screen design of NIO and Tesla, but this design has long appeared on models such as Ideal ONE and Zero Run C11, which is not uncommon. 

In terms of cruising range, Hengchi 5 can achieve 602 kilometers, although it has exceeded the industry’s passing line, but if this level of cruising is compared to the track of new energy compact SUVs, it does not have much advantage.Because the Nezha U and GAC AION Y, both compact SUVs, also have a maximum cruising range of more than 600 kilometers, and the cruising range of Xiaopeng G3, Zero Run C11 and other models has also reached about 550 kilometers, which is not much different from Hengchi 5. 

As the intelligent aspect that is currently valued by consumers, according to public information, Hengchi 5 only has L2-level automatic assisted driving capabilities. In contrast, the higher-level urban road automatic assisted driving capabilities of car companies such as Xiaopeng and Great Wall have also been unveiled to the outside world. 

In addition to the lack of advantages of the model itself, Hengchi’s brand power and financial capacity have also become important factors restricting the launch of Hengchi 5. 

"Based on the current situation of Hengda Automobile’s insufficient capital reserves and declining performance, it is still unknown whether it can support the mass production of Hengchi 5 in the future. Even if mass production can be achieved in the end, Hengchi’s brand power will be exhausted with the occurrence of previous layoffs, asset sales and other events, not to mention that there are still many consumers who do not know this brand."Zhang Xiang, a distinguished expert from China Bolian Think Tank, told Connected Travel.

From this perspective, although Hengda Automobile has currently launched an agent franchise model, Hengchi 5 is also experiencing offline appearances, but under the influence of factors such as the lack of bright spots, insufficient capital reserves, and weak brand power, Hengda Automobile wants to use Hengchi 5 to launch a mass production turnaround. 

Even so, for Hengda Automobile, in the context of the current new energy vehicle industry trend, car manufacturing is already an extremely important "life-saving straw", which must be grasped.

Mobile power, also known as "power bank". The latest quality supervision and sampling results of online mobile power products released by the State Administration for Market Regulation show that more than one-third of the products tested failed.

Online mobile power supply quality national supervision and spot check, more than 35% failed

CCTV Finance "Economic Information Network" column video

The results of the random inspection showed that among the 99 batches of products produced by 95 enterprises in 9 provinces (cities), 35 batches failed, and the failure rate was 35.4%.

The reporter noticed that some of these unqualified mobile power supplies have prominent problems with false capacity and cannot achieve the claimed charging effect; some have safety risks such as heat generation and deflagration, threatening consumers’ personal and property safety. According to relevant industry data, our country is not only the world’s largest producer of mobile power supplies, but also the largest consumer market. Since 2020, shipments have remained at about 100 million units. With the continuous popularity of mobile power supplies, safety accidents caused by mobile power sources have occurred all over the country.

At the end of May this year, on Line 7 of the Beijing Subway, the mobile power supply in a passenger’s satchel suddenly exploded, and a large amount of smoke instantly filled the entire carriage. Fortunately, due to the timely handling of the staff, the accident did not cause casualties.

Also in May this year, in a parking lot in Zhangjiagang, Jiangsu Province, the mobile power supply left in the car also exploded. The center console inside the car was badly damaged, and there were traces of bursting in the front windshield.

In early January this year, a self-built house in Guiping, Guangxi Province, burst into flames in the early morning, and a family of four died tragically. According to a warning article issued by the fire department, "After preliminary investigation, the cause of the fire was a short circuit of the mobile power supply, which caused the fire. The on-site inspection found that the mobile power supply was suspected to be counterfeit and shoddy products."

Industry experts say that poor quality or improper use of mobile power supplies can lead to safety accidents, threatening consumers’ personal and property safety.

5 batches of mobile power supply failed the overcharge test, which could cause fire and explosion

CCTV Finance "Economic Information Network" column video

It generally takes a few hours or even longer for the mobile power supply to be fully charged. If you forget to unplug the power supply, you may also charge it all day and night. This situation is called charging. During this national supervision and spot inspection, it was found that 5 batches of mobile power supplies failed the charging test.

According to the testing engineer, during daily use, mobile power supplies may forget to unplug and charge for a long time, which requires that the internal battery quality of the mobile power supply must be reliable enough. Even if the circuit is damaged during overcharging, there should be no risk of fire or explosion.

Some mobile power internal battery in the test process suddenly deflagration, a lot of smoke. After the test of these unqualified mobile power batteries were burned.

After testing, 5 batches of mobile power overcharging items failed this time. They are:

Shenzhen Jinyu Dongfang Industrial Co., Ltd. produces the Yuanqi Mengmeng mobile power supply of Tmall Lofte flagship store

Dongguan Yubo Communication Equipment Co., Ltd. produces Yubo mobile power supply for Vipshop Yubo Digital Sale Flagship Store

Shenzhen Yanbu Technology Co., Ltd. produces super flash charging (mobile power supply) for Tmall eara flagship store.

Shenzhen Yimo Technology Co., Ltd. produces the LeTV super mobile power supply of Pinduoduo LeTV Yandian store

Yuantu Culture (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. produces the Starry Sky Hand Warmer of Tmall Tianxiang Chuangwu Flagship Store

According to the testing engineer, poor battery quality is often one of the main reasons for the failure of the overcharge index.

The reporter learned that if the shell quality is not up to standard, in the event of a bump or fall, the internal circuit and battery of the mobile power supply cannot be effectively protected, resulting in short circuits, battery leakage and other problems, which may also lead to safety accidents such as fire and deflagration.

For unqualified products found in supervision and spot checks, the General Administration of Market Supervision requires local market supervision bureaus to urge e-commerce platforms to immediately remove them from the shelves, and at the same time take measures such as seizure and seizure in accordance with the law to strictly prohibit the production and sales of enterprises. For unqualified enterprises, further clarify the rectification requirements, strictly supervise the implementation of rectification measures, and organize timely review.

  Navigation software can speed us up, but we can also find wonders in the "slow life"; navigation software can allow us to travel far, but we should not give up our sense of the nearby environment

  Walking on the street, opening the phone to browse the navigation interface to confirm the destination; coming to an unfamiliar place, clicking on the navigation to explore in place, hoping to find the east, west, north and south… Nowadays, navigation software has been integrated into daily life, playing an increasingly prominent role in optimizing traffic operation and saving commuting time.

  Objectively speaking, navigation software is the product of technological progress. For a long time in history, finding the way was a practical need faced by people. To avoid getting lost, the ancients relied on well-made markers, or unfolded simple maps, or asked strangers for directions. The verse "Ask where the restaurant is, and the shepherd boy points to Xinghua Village" vividly depicts the scene of asking for directions. In reality, whether it is marking or asking for directions, it is difficult to match the accuracy, convenience and experience of mobile phone navigation.

  Today, with the help of navigation software, finding the way is no longer a problem. In 2020, our country built the Beidou-3 global satellite navigation system to provide services to the world. In space, the Beidou navigation satellite operates day and night, providing location information services to countless end points. On the ground, whether driving, cycling or walking, people open the mobile phone navigation software and follow the prompts to reach their destination. With the development of the economy and the deepening of urbanization, the popularization of navigation technology helps people reach the place they want to go more quickly and effectively, and also makes mobile China more vibrant.

  However, there are also scientific studies showing that over-reliance on navigation software may cause the brain to reduce its interaction with the surrounding environment. Not only that, but navigation not only provides us with location information, but also affects our route choices at all times, shaping our cognition of space and time. For example, the destination search function allows us to automatically pop up options without looking for a specific location on the map; the route recommendation function, so that we no longer need to choose a route based on experience. In a sense, navigation software does allow us to cross a specific space in the least time, improving the efficiency of space-time conversion, but it may also make us miss the scenery along the way.

  In the fast-paced modern society, the importance of efficiency is self-evident. But while pursuing speed, how to perceive the environment more richly and better understand the relationship between ourselves and the wider world is also a topic of "on the road". In the past, Xie Liang, the old man, volunteered to guide others for 16 years, which made many new visitors to Beijing feel the warmth of the city; now, with a mobile phone in hand, many people do not want or need to ask for directions. Once, the buildings, streets and flowers and trees of the city were deeply embedded in our memory when we knew the way; now, the route that some people remember best is the section from the subway station to the bus station. To a certain extent, focusing only on the connections and numbers in the navigation software can easily make people ignore the natural, historical, and cultural elements in the environment, as well as the fireworks, human touch, and beautiful scenery around them, thus losing the fun of "people on the journey" in a hurry.

  Today, navigation software has become a necessity for many people’s lives. It is worth thinking about how to better integrate technology into our lives. Navigation software can make us faster, but we can also find wonders in the "slow life"; navigation software can allow us to travel far, but we should not give up the feeling of the nearby environment. Keep a heart of discovery, and maybe you will find that the convenience of navigation software and the beauty of the city have always been there.

Many proposals were rejected, and the share price of Zhongju High-tech rose slightly

  The dispute over the company’s shareholding has heated up.

  Reporters He Hongyuan and Chen Sha report

  Markets seem to welcome () "scramble".

  On September 14, the company released the resolution announcement of the second extraordinary general meeting of shareholders in 2022. The meeting discussed five proposals on changing the use of the first share repurchase in 2021, the draft and summary of the 2022 employee stock ownership plan, and the management measures of Zhongju High-tech’s 2022 employee stock ownership plan.

  Among them, the opposition to the first four proposals exceeded 50%, but none of them were passed.

  According to the previous disclosure of the 2022 employee stock ownership plan (draft), the total number of employees participating in the employee stock ownership plan does not exceed 491 (excluding the reserved part), and the share source of the employee stock ownership plan is the company’s repurchase of the special securities account repurchased in the torch high-tech class A shares of common stock, the employee stock ownership plan transfer price is 18.14 yuan/share, the duration of 48 months.

  The draft proposed performance appraisal requirements are: 2022-2024, the corresponding revenue target value is 5.50 billion yuan, 6.30 billion yuan, 8 billion yuan, respectively, an increase of 7.51%, 14.55%, 26.98%, net asset return target value of 13%, 14%, 15%.

  On August 29, when Zhongju High-tech was reviewing the employee stock ownership plan, there was a big controversy. At that time, 9 directors passed the motion with 5 votes in favor, 3 votes against and 1 abstention.

  According to relevant announcements, the dissenters were director Yu Jianhua, director Wan Hequn, and independent director Gan Yaoren. The main reasons for the opposition were unreasonable unlocking conditions, the nature of benefits was greater than the incentive effect, and the controlling shareholders received 1.83% of the voting rights through the committee, which affected the interests of the majority of small and medium shareholders. Exclusive director Qin Zhihua abstained.

  It is worth noting that in the aforementioned plan, the revenue growth targets for 2023 and 2024 exceed the company’s performance expectations.

  Since Yu Jianhua and Wan Hequn both worked within the Torch Group system, it may mean that the opposition was mainly Torch Group at that time, and the agreeing party was mainly Zhongshan Runtian controlled by the major shareholder Baoneng. Behind Torch Group stands the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of Torch District, which is also the former major shareholder of Zhongju High-tech.

  In fact, the company’s shareholding dispute has become intense. On September 14, the torch high-tech announcement showed that after the completion of the reduction plan, Zhongshan Runtian accounted for 17.72% of its total share capital, narrowing the shareholding gap with Torch Group to about 5%.

  In terms of performance, Zhongju High-tech is still in the growth range. In the first half of the year, its revenue was 2.652 billion yuan, an increase of 14.52% year-on-year; the net profit attributable to the parent was 313 million yuan, an increase of 11.91% year-on-year.

  On September 15, Zhongju High-tech received 33.07 yuan, an increase of 0.43%.

  On the same day, the Shanghai Composite Consumption 80 Index closed at 5861.52 points, down 0.49%. Agriculture

Special Topics: Earthquake Relief, Donations with Love


  Jackie Chan and Jet Li will go to the disaster area one after another (data map)


  Chengdu Business Daily, May 16A sudden disaster has made people lament the fragility of life, and the mutual support after the disaster has made people deeply appreciate the kindness and strength of human nature. The entertainment industry is in action. Yesterday, Shao Yifu donated 100 million Hong Kong dollars for disaster relief, and many celebrities have further increased their donations. What is even more touching is that after the disaster, celebrities have donated money one after another, and some celebrities have also come to the front line of the disaster area regardless of their own safety. In addition to Jackie Chan coming to Hong Kong today to comfort the victims, Jet Li will also arrive in Hong Kong tomorrow with disaster relief supplies, and Beichuan may be his first stop.


  Jackie Chan will go to Mianyang


  In addition to donating tens of millions of yuan, Jackie Chan is also personally coming to Chengdu today to offer condolences to the victims. It is reported that Jackie Chan is absent from Cannes due to work, but he will put down his work today and fly to Rongcheng. The first stop of condolences may be Mianyang.


  Jackie Chan recorded the disaster relief song "Life and Death" with great enthusiasm last night. After that, the eldest brother will stand on the same stage with Jet Li again. After the Sichuan earthquake, people in the entertainment industry moved quickly to contribute their own strength to the earthquake relief. Yesterday, reporters learned that Jackie Chan and Jet Li will come to Chengdu today and tomorrow respectively, bringing precious materials and boosting the morale of the earthquake relief.


  In addition to donating tens of millions, Jackie Chan is actually coming to Chengdu today to offer condolences to the victims. Yesterday, Jackie Chan has sent two assistants to Sichuan to learn about the situation in the earthquake-stricken areas. The reporter learned from informed sources that after the earthquake, Jackie Chan was very worried about the situation of the people in the disaster area. On the afternoon of the 14th, his assistant called Deng Changcheng, a contestant of "Descendants of the Dragon", to learn about the situation on the front line. Deng Changcheng responded to the call of the Communist Party Committee of the Communist Party of China to join the volunteer team and went to Dujiangyan after the earthquake. He reported what he knew to Jackie Chan. After understanding the situation, Jackie Chan immediately decided to go to Sichuan as soon as possible to go to the first-line disaster area!


  Yesterday afternoon, two of Jackie Chan’s assistants went to Dujiangyan with Deng Changcheng to understand the disaster situation, and did not return to Chengdu until 7 pm. They came to a collapsed building in Dujiangyan City, and the situation in front of them was unbearable to witness. "I heard that there are three people inside, and I hope they can survive." The reporter learned that the company has been hoping that Jackie Chan will delay the date of coming to Chengdu for safety reasons, and come back after the situation is further stabilized. At noon yesterday, Jackie Chan talked to the assistant who had already arrived in Rong. After listening to the assistant’s opinions, he still insisted on going deep into the disaster area as soon as possible.


  Jet Li personally delivered supplies to the disaster area


  In addition to Jackie Chan’s eldest brother will go to the disaster area, the reporter learned that Li Lianjie will also fly to Rongcheng tomorrow, and Beichuan may be one of his stops. Li Lianjie experienced a tsunami a few years ago and witnessed countless lives being swallowed up in an instant. This also made a major change in the course of his life. In addition to movies, his other career is managing the One Foundation. The earthquake in Sichuan made Li Lianjie feel the pain of the victims. As the founder of the One Foundation, he will come to Chengdu tomorrow to bring a large number of disaster victims in urgent need of supplies.


  Yesterday, the "China International Committee of the Red Cross Li Lianjie One Foundation Program" held a briefing on the 5.12 Sichuan earthquake relief situation. Li Lianjie attended the briefing and expressed his concern for the disaster area. Tomorrow, he will come to the earthquake-stricken area to distribute relief supplies to the victims.


  Since the earthquake occurred on May 12, One Foundation has been closely monitoring the development of the disaster situation, and has been in daily contact with the rescue teams of the International Committee of the Red Cross in the disaster area ahead to learn about the latest situation. So far, One Foundation has raised a total of 28.05 million yuan for disaster relief. After the Wenchuan earthquake occurred on May 12, One Foundation allocated 1 million yuan to support the disaster area as soon as possible.


  After learning that the people in the disaster area lack tents, bedding, food, drinking water, medicine and other basic living and medical security materials, One Foundation launched a new round of fundraising call, calling on enterprises all over the country to donate materials. One Foundation assists enterprises to donate to the local International Committee of the Red Cross for distribution and supervises the distribution process. Tomorrow, One Foundation founder Jet Li will fly to Chengdu with the first batch of materials to directly deliver the materials to the local International Committee of the Red Cross for distribution to the people in the disaster area.

Fujian Provincial Consumer Committee builds a channel to solve the problem of consumer rights protection on e-commerce platforms

China Consumer News Fuzhou News(ReporterZhang articleIn order to deeply understand the relevant situation of e-commerce enterprises, grasp the real situation of the quality of goods and services they provide, safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of consumers, and enhance the sense of service and social responsibility of the e-commerce industry. The Fujian Provincial Consumer Committee actively builds a "zero-distance" communication bridge between enterprises and consumers, carries out "safeguard safe and unimpeded consumption" fresh food e-commerce, large-scale supermarket consumption observation activities, and strengthens social supervision.

On March 9, the Fujian Provincial Consumer Committee, together with the Fuzhou Municipal Consumer Committee, the Gulou District Consumer Committee, and the Cangshan District Consumer Committee, organized consumer rights protection volunteers, consumer representatives, and news media to enter the Yonghui Supermarket Binjiang Jinrong Store, Yonghui Life APP Binjiang Jinrong Warehouse, Walmart Sam’s Club Store, and Sam’s Club APP online delivery and picking warehouses to carry out "zero-distance" consumption observation activities around fresh food e-commerce and large-scale supermarket food safety, personal information security, convenient consumption, care for elderly consumers, and consumption upgrades.

On March 12, the Fujian Provincial Consumer Committee and the Putian Municipal Consumer Committee organized a group of more than 30 consumer representatives, consumer rights protection volunteer representatives, media representatives, and government department staff to walk into the Xingsheng Preferred fresh food e-commerce Fujian Station. Consumers were concerned about "how to deliver fresh dishes quickly" and "how to ensure the quality of goods and food safety". Representatives of the observation team communicated with enterprises one by one on issues such as logistics distribution, quality control, fruit and vegetable pesticide residues, and handling of returned goods that consumers are concerned about. Combined with the experience, they put forward opinions and suggestions for enterprises.

Community fresh food e-commerce, as an emerging sales model, has been accepted by more and more consumers, but consumers are still relatively unfamiliar with how enterprises operate, whether the quality of goods is controlled, whether logistics distribution is timely, and whether after-sales services can be guaranteed. Through the fresh food e-commerce and large-scale supermarket series of consumer observation activities, the Fujian Provincial Consumer Committee has opened the door for consumers to observe and supervise, and consumers have directly communicated their problems and needs to enterprises, which has enhanced the mutual trust between consumers and enterprises. Consumers have exercised their right to know and supervise through "zero-distance" observation and supervision, not only understanding the relevant knowledge of fresh food e-commerce, but also boosting their confidence in consumption with confidence. At the same time, it also further urges operating enterprises to build a solid safety bottom line, abide by the law and operate with integrity, promote the formation of a consumer safety consensus in the whole society, and promote the sustainable and healthy development of the consumer market.

In order to further supervise e-commerce enterprises to operate in accordance with the law, strengthen the sense of corporate responsibility, and improve the effectiveness of early warning and resolution of consumer contradictions. On March 14, the Fujian Provincial Consumer Committee and Meituan Company signed a strategic cooperation agreement. The two sides reached a cooperation consensus on jointly carrying out anti-food waste publicity and advocacy work, building and maintaining a green channel for the handling of consumer disputes, conducting research and early warning on hot issues of online consumption, conducting research on consumption big data in the field of life services, and enhancing the influence of consumer rights protection work in Fujian. Meituan (including Meituan takeaway, Meituan Preferred, Meituan Wine Brigade, Meituan to the store catering) made a solemn commitment to the majority of consumers on the same day: to further enhance the merchant’s food safety awareness, optimize distribution safety, and promote high-tech contactless distribution methods such as smart dining cabinets; to formulate the "Meituan Preferred Platform User Service Agreement", "Return and Exchange Policy", "Meituan Preferred Genuine Guarantee Specification" and other systems, promising to provide consumers with platform services such as "bad fruit return" and "lightning refund", establish a professional customer service team, and timely intervene to deal with various complaints between consumers and merchants; jointly guide platform merchants to enhance consumer rights protection awareness, and improve the quality of Meituan platform enterprise after-sales services Efficiently handle issues reported by consumers.

Didi’s new Uber app will replace the old one next month

  On October 24th, Uber invited some customers to participate in the closed beta before going online to experience the new "Uber Uber China" app in depth.

  Uber insiders have previously revealed that this new app will combine the most popular features of Uber and Didi in one. The first version is the most concise version, and it will continue to be upgraded and optimized in the next few months. Let’s try it out first and see what changes this "new Uber" has made.

  Before talking about changes, let’s talk about what hasn’t changed:

  First, the minimalist aesthetic. Everyone’s favorite Uber, clean interface remains the same.

  After the download and installation are completed, the icon still maintains the style of the original version, the only difference is that the word "new" is added in the lower right corner of Icon, which is different from the old version in a simple and clear way.

  From the surface, the logo and naming of the original app are the same as before, and the login process has not changed.

  There will be a seamless transition between the old and new apps. Uber’s existing users in China will be able to continue to log in with their original accounts, and most users will no longer need to re-enter their passwords and bind payment methods when using the new app.

  The taxi process has not changed. Get off the bus and pay or just leave. The payment method is secret-free payment…

  Everything is the same. So where is this new Uber app "new"?

  A closer comparison of the old and new versions of Uber will reveal that some of the more obvious changes are that the Uber app has added many functions on the Didi app, such as WeChat docking, online real-time customer service, etc., but also "missing" some functions and modules in the old version of the app, such as globalization function.

  The first point is faster. The more obvious user-related change is that the download package size is the previous (iOS) and (Android).

  The overall feeling after opening the new app is that it feels a lot faster. The new version loads extremely fast, and the jumping between pages is smoother than before.

  This feeling is demonstrated after querying the properties.

  The relevant attributes show that the installation file of the original version of the Uber App has reached 91MB, while the newly downloaded Uber App is only 22.6MB in size. The Android download package has also changed from 21.2MB to 10.6MB, and the installation package size is only 1/4 of the original download package size.

  It is speculated that this can be achieved for a variety of reasons: because the Uber interface and product line are relatively simple, without the need for so many modules, and the technology and methods of the product team are different from those in the past.

  It is revealed that in addition to the smaller download package, the new app’s memory, traffic, and power will be more economical in the past, and the page jump speed will also be faster.

  Second: Add real-time online manual customer service

  The help page is connected to real-time online manual customer service.

  As a veteran user of Uber, in the past, although seeking complaints and suggestions could be reported through the message in the app, although this method has become very popular abroad, Chinese consumers are not used to it. Didi customer service has telephone customer service, so it can be expected that the merged Uber will also provide telephone customer service.

  The new version adds "vehicle color information," a feature that is also available on Didi’s app but not previously available at Uber, and can help taxi riders see vehicles at first glance.

  Fourth, it is easier to communicate with the driver. To communicate with the driver, you can leave a message in the app, no longer just rely on phone calls.

  In the past, Uber was used to connect with drivers, and by "contacting the driver", the system would dial the driver’s phone number. In some cities of Uber, some cities have previously been able to "talk" with drivers by leaving messages in the app.

  The fifth change is that after a year and a half, WeChat has finally developed the new Uber. You can use WeChat to share routes and recommend friends for rides

  The safety of online car-hailing has always been everyone’s top concern. The "share real-time itinerary" function was first launched by Uber. Previously, on the Uber app, real-time online itinerary webpages could be shared by text message, and family and friends could know the real-time location of passengers by clicking on the webpage.

  The new app still maintains this function, but WeChat and QQ channels have been added to the sharing channel, allowing users to share their real-time routes in more ways.

  WeChat’s overnight forceful entry into the Uber app is unexpected, but it seems reasonable. In addition to sharing trips, you can also use WeChat and QQ to recommend ride discounts to others, which is also a function that Uber’s old app does not have.

  Sixth, focus. The new version currently only retains two product lines, "People’s Uber +" and "Preferred Cars", focusing on the sharing economy and compliant vehicles

  The interface, the map, the familiar red car, the estimated time to prompt the estimated arrival of the nearest vehicle, and the "Click to use the car" button all maintained the original style, while the function keys below were streamlined to the greatest extent, retaining only "People’s Uber +". (Including carpooling) and "Preferred car" two main businesses.

  In the past, Uber has had different types and numbers of product lines in various cities (People’s Uber, Preferred Car, Privilege Car, Cross-City Car, 7-Seater Car, etc.). It is known that after the launch of the new app, most cities across the country have only temporarily retained the People’s Uber + and Preferred Car product lines, and other product lines may be added in the future.

  The most significant change is that foreign users may be affected.

  Uber’s new app is "missing" some features and modules from the old version of the app, such as temporarily unable to use overseas, missing the English version of the interface and temporarily unable to bind international credit cards. According to internal sources, these features are expected to be gradually improved in future upgrades.
