Accelerate the construction of ubiquitous advanced information infrastructure system.

  Cctv newsRecently, the State Council issued the "Thirteenth Five-Year National Informatization Plan", which is a guiding document for China’s informatization development in the next five years. It requires the construction of an ubiquitous advanced information infrastructure system, constantly promoting the evolution and upgrading of infrastructure, creating an integrated information infrastructure for land, sea, air and space, coordinating the construction of comprehensive infrastructure, and accelerating the network construction in rural and remote areas. Implementing the requirements of planning tasks and building a ubiquitous advanced information infrastructure system are the strong driving force for promoting China’s informatization development as a whole and the inevitable requirement for building a network power.

  First, the construction of ubiquitous advanced information infrastructure system is a strong driving force to promote the development of informatization in China.

  At present, China’s various and large-scale information infrastructures such as fiber-optic broadband network, mobile broadband network, radio and television network, industry-specific communication network, cloud computing data center, content distribution network, Internet of Things, terrestrial fiber-optic network, submarine fiber-optic network and satellite communication network are being built and formed. Build a ubiquitous advanced information infrastructure architecture with multi-network integration, multi-dimensional integration and comprehensive intelligence, and form a strong driving force to promote the development of informatization in China.

  First, the construction of ubiquitous advanced information infrastructure system is the demand direction of informatization development. At present, China is in an important stage of modernization driven by informatization, and the information economy has become the direction of economic and social transformation and development, which urgently needs a new round of information technology leading forces to join. China’s information infrastructure technology development level is in a rapidly rising stage, and fixed broadband network fiber, mobile network broadband, and next generation Internet evolution are the development trends of infrastructure. During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, the scale of ultra-wideband optical fiber access network with 10G PON technology was built, 400G wavelength division multiplexing system technology became the mainstream of backbone optical transmission network construction, 4G+ mobile broadband technology was widely used, China led the formation of 5G global unified technical standards, 5G trial and commercial networks began to take shape, and IPv6 technology was fully introduced into the Internet. With the evolution and upgrading of China’s advanced technology in information infrastructure, a converged broadband network infrastructure system with advanced technology, high speed, convenience, safety and reliability covering urban and rural areas has been basically built, making the use of information infrastructure more convenient and becoming an indispensable part of people’s daily work and life.

  Second, the information infrastructure of multi-network integration promotes the development of informatization to be consistent. Different types of network infrastructure have their own advantages in promoting the development of information technology, but under the condition that the development of information technology tends to be consistent, it is possible to develop multi-network integration. In recent years, China has been promoting the development of triple play, especially in the 13th Five-Year Plan. With the accelerated implementation of broadband strategy, the construction of all-optical network has achieved initial results, and all-optical network counties, all-optical network cities and all-optical network provinces have emerged constantly. At present, China Unicom has completed 8 all-optical network provinces and 130 all-optical network cities nationwide, and China Telecom announced that it will achieve 100% coverage of all-optical networks this year. According to the statistics of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, as of October, the total number of FTTH/0 users with optical fiber access reached 215 million, accounting for 73% of the total broadband users, a net increase of 66.74 million over the end of last year. Fiber-optic broadband access network can provide ultra-high-definition 4K video services over 50-100M, and the total number of IPTV users has reached 78.73 million, with a net increase of 32.83 million from January to October. The process of two-way transformation of China’s radio and television network has been accelerated, and FTTH technology has been adopted. By the third quarter, the two-way network covered more than 145 million users and broadband users reached 23.288 million, of which FTTH users reached 5.637 million.China is promoting the construction of the next generation radio and television network, adopting the wired and wireless satellite convergence network construction mode to meet the needs of users for radio and television convergence media services at any time, at any place and at any terminal, and to promote the construction of an interconnected, cross-border interactive, intelligent, secure and credible media cloud.

  Third, build an information infrastructure that integrates land, sea, air and space to promote the coordinated development of informatization. China’s informatization development field has been fully expanded to land, ocean, sky, space and other production, life and scientific research spaces, which requires the construction of an integrated information infrastructure with land, sea, air and space. On the land side, firstly, the optical fiber network and the mobile network are used as connecting media, so as to speed up the deep coverage of points, lines and areas such as cities, villages and towns, traffic roads, and key crowded areas, build an ultra-high-speed and large-capacity optical transmission technology to upgrade the backbone transmission network, realize the flexible choice of users’ optical fiber broadband and 4G mobile broadband access service capabilities of more than 100 megabytes, and continuously improve the high-speed transmission and access capabilities of information networks. The second is to promote the interconnection of information and communication facilities with neighboring countries, open up the land information Silk Road from Central Asia to West Asia and from South Asia to the Indian Ocean, encourage Internet enterprises and operating enterprises to build overseas business nodes and application infrastructure, and enhance network accessibility and business access. The third is to speed up the deployment of Internet of Things facilities, cloud computing centers, big data platforms, content distribution networks and other facilities, accelerate the evolution of network facilities with information transmission as the core to intelligent information infrastructure integrating perception, transmission, storage, calculation and processing, and realize the network moving with the cloud. In the ocean, we will strengthen the construction of submarine optical cables, expand the transmission channels of submarine optical cables between coastal cities and islands, actively promote the construction of submarine cables in America, Europe and Africa, and build a maritime information silk road that reaches the whole world. Accelerate the research and development and application of marine and underwater communication technologies,Provide broadband satellite communication, mobile communication, ship networking and other solutions, build a private network for offshore mobile clusters, promote the deployment of public broadband wireless networks at sea, enhance marine emergency communication capabilities, and promote the construction of smart oceans. In the sky, the first is to build an information network integrating heaven and earth, coordinate the construction and application of Beidou system, speed up the construction of Beidou navigation and positioning reference station network, coordinate the technical application in related fields of satellite mobile communication and broadband satellite communication system, form the standards and specifications of key technologies of China’s independent satellite communication system and broadband satellite communication system, and cultivate an industrial chain covering satellite manufacturing, launch, satellite ground equipment and satellite application and operation. Second, speed up the application of frontier technologies such as floating platform, low-orbit satellite mobile communication and space Internet, promote the development of information infrastructure in integration of defense and civilian technologies, enhance the information security of space network, and build a global space-based information network. In August this year, China successfully launched the world’s first quantum science experimental satellite, connecting the Beijing node of the quantum secure communication backbone network with it, and building the world’s first practical wide-area quantum communication network integrating heaven and earth.

  Fourth, build comprehensive infrastructure to promote the in-depth development of information application. Accelerate the construction of public facilities and municipal infrastructure such as power grid, railway, highway and water network, and supporting information infrastructure such as characteristic towns and beautiful countryside. Realize synchronous planning, synchronous design and synchronous construction with other infrastructures, ensure the space, location, power and other resources for the construction and development of information infrastructure, endow infrastructure with networking wisdom function, and build intelligent comprehensive infrastructure. Accelerate the supporting construction of information infrastructure for transmission and distribution networks, improve the ability of intelligent automation control, promote the construction of national smart grid and build a global energy Internet. Accelerate the construction of supporting information infrastructure along the transportation line, promote the opening of facilities, innovate the cooperation mode, implement joint construction and sharing, and build an intelligent transportation network. Guangdong Province will speed up the construction of town information infrastructure and promote the "internet plus" plan. In the next three years, 10 industrial "internet plus" towns and 50 applied "internet plus" towns will be created. In 2015, Zhejiang Province proposed to cultivate 100 characteristic towns with complete infrastructure in the next three years.

  Second, China has become a network power, but it is not strong enough to support informatization as the leading force driving modernization.

  After more than 30 years of telecommunications reform, China’s information infrastructure construction has developed rapidly, and the world’s largest fixed broadband network and mobile broadband network have been built, becoming a veritable network power. First, in terms of user scale, as of the end of October 2016, the total number of Internet broadband access users of the three basic telecommunications companies reached 294 million, of which the total number of FTTH/0 users with optical fiber access reached 215 million, accounting for 73%, ranking third after Japan and South Korea; The total number of mobile phone users reached 1.321 billion, of which the number of 4G users reached 714 million, surpassing the sum of the United States and Europe and surpassing one third of the world. Second, in terms of network capacity, by the first quarter of 2016, the construction of fiber-optic broadband networks will be accelerated, urban households will basically achieve full coverage of 100 Mbit/s optical fibers, and fixed broadband networks will extend to all townships and 95% administrative villages in the country; The 4G network covers cities and major towns all over the country. Some key cities have deployed 4G+ technology on a large scale, and the pace of commercialization in carrier aggregation and VoLTE has been accelerated in an all-round way. The backbone network architecture has been further optimized, and the network grooming ability and user experience have been greatly improved. Third, in terms of actual network speed, as of the third quarter of 2016, the average download rate of fixed broadband reached 11.03 Mbit/s, and the average download rate of 4G network reached 11.83 Mbit/s, forming a situation in which fixed and mobile broadband rates developed side by side.

  However, there is still a certain gap with the goal of supporting informatization as the leading force to drive modernization, and the development of information infrastructure still faces many challenges. Mainly manifested in: First, the global ranking of penetration rate is not high. According to the data of broadband access in countries around the world released by the Broadband Commission of the United Nations, in 2015, China’s broadband development was in the top third of the world, lagging behind the four countries of the United States, Britain, Japan and South Korea. Among them, the fixed broadband penetration rate is 18.56%, ranking 57 th in the world; The mobile broadband penetration rate is 56.0%, ranking 69th in the world. The penetration rate of Internet households is 54.17%, and the proportion of netizens is 50.30%, ranking 35th and 46th respectively in developing countries. Second, the actual speed measurement value of broadband in China by foreign institutions is not high. According to Akamai’s report on the Internet in the second quarter of 2016, the global average network speed was 6.1Mbps, up 14% year-on-year. Among them, South Korea’s average network speed is 27Mbps, which continues to rank first in the world. China’s average network speed is 5.2Mbps, a year-on-year increase of 52%, and the global ranking has risen from 100 in the previous quarter to 86th. The report of the speed measuring agency shows that China’s average network speed ranks low in the international rankings, which reflects that China’s international Internet exports are not high, and the per capita international export bandwidth ranks low in the world. Third, the ubiquitous advanced information infrastructure system has not yet been established, the development of multi-network integration is still being promoted, and the information infrastructure pattern of land, sea and air integration has not yet been formed.The consciousness of building comprehensive infrastructure as a whole is not strong enough. Third, rural information infrastructure is still a weak link in development, the proportion of optical fiber to administrative villages is low, the coverage of 4G networks in rural areas is not good, and the digital divide still exists.

  Third, speed up the network construction in rural and remote areas and improve the universal service level of telecommunications.

  After more than ten years of national "village-to-village project", the leap-forward development of rural information and communication infrastructure in China has been realized, and a good situation of "telephone service in every village and broadband service in every township" has been achieved. Due to the characteristics of high cost, complex maintenance and poor income of network construction in rural and remote areas, network development has been lagging behind urban areas, which can not well support the development of rural agricultural informatization. By the end of 2015, there are still about 50,000 administrative villages without broadband access, and about 150,000 administrative villages with broadband access need to upgrade their broadband technology. Speeding up the network construction in rural and remote areas and constantly improving the universal service level of telecommunications are of great strategic significance to promoting the overall development level of informatization in China and building a network power.

  First, recognize the gap between urban and rural information infrastructure development. As of the second quarter of 2016, the average penetration rate of fixed broadband households in China was 56.5%, of which the penetration rate of fixed broadband households in urban areas reached 79%, while that in rural areas was only 29%, with a difference of 50 percentage points between urban and rural areas. As of May 2016, the coverage rate of administrative villages with 4G network was only 65%. As of December 2015, the number of rural netizens in China reached 195 million, and the number of urban netizens was 493 million. Rural netizens accounted for only 28.4% of the total netizens, while the urban population accounted for 56.10%.

  Second, see clearly the situation faced by rural network construction and development. Under the situation of implementing the strategy of strengthening the country by network, only by comprehensively improving the network capacity in rural and remote areas can we achieve the real strategic goal. China is in a critical period of the simultaneous development of new industrialization, informatization, urbanization and agricultural modernization. Taking informatization as the commanding height of agricultural modernization, only by building perfect information infrastructure in rural and remote areas can we effectively support the development of rural agricultural informatization. During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, it is necessary to vigorously implement the network poverty alleviation action to ensure accurate and effective poverty alleviation.

  Third, promote network construction in rural and remote areas by classification. The administrative villages with no broadband access or broadband access capacity less than 12 Mbit/s will be covered with optical fiber, and 98% of the administrative villages will be connected with optical fiber. More than 50% of rural household users will have access bandwidth above 50Mbps, and access services above 100Mbps will be provided in better areas of the network. Implement 4G network deep coverage for administrative villages with concentrated population. For remote areas, forest and pastoral areas, islands and poverty-stricken areas, flexible networking such as low-frequency mobile cellular, satellite communication and multiple optical fiber combination access technologies will be adopted to promote broadband network coverage of more than 90% of poverty-stricken villages.

  Fourth, combine rural network construction with rural agricultural informatization. According to the development idea of combining network construction with business application, we will promote rural agricultural informatization as a whole and apply it to the whole process of agricultural production, agricultural product management, agricultural management and rural service. Popularize the informatization construction of rural grass-roots government affairs, promote the construction of broadband campuses and online classrooms in rural primary and secondary schools, promote the application of medical informatization and telemedicine in rural clinics, promote the development of rural e-commerce, and promote the adaptive development of informatization application level and rural network capacity.

  Fifth, improve the universal service level of telecommunications. We will carry out in-depth pilot work on universal telecommunications service, strengthen the guidance of central financial funds, drive local governments to strengthen overall planning and policy support, promote enterprises to assume the responsibility of market players, and jointly promote the development of network construction in rural and remote areas. Adhere to market-oriented operation, encourage private capital and radio and television enterprises to participate in competition fairly, and fully mobilize the enthusiasm of all kinds of enterprises to participate in universal telecommunications services. We will implement the national guidance on speeding up and reducing fees, encourage operators to formulate tariff packages that are in line with rural consumption levels and habits, give preferential communication tariffs to disadvantaged groups, and let 600 million farmers share the fruits of information network development to ensure that residents in rural and remote areas can use, afford and make good use of information services.

Taking price reduction as a spear, good shops want last stand.

Edit | Midnight

The high-end snack brand Liangpin shop has finally reduced its price.

On November 30th, just three days after Liangpin Store announced that Yang Yinfen had succeeded Yang Hongchun as the company’s chairman and general manager, Liangpin Store announced the largest price reduction in 17 years. The average price of more than 300 products sold in the store was reduced by 22%, with the highest drop of 45%.

Externally, in the era of rational consumption, which pays more and more attention to cost performance, the whole platform is rolling towards "low price". Not only are e-commerce platforms learning from Pinduoduo, but consumer brands are also cutting prices, including Zhong Xuegao and Xicha, which also focus on high-end. Even in the snack track where the good shop is located, the three squirrels in the same trade also put forward the strategy of "high-end cost performance" and adjusted their own price system.

Internally, since 2023, good shops are facing multiple dilemmas such as stalled performance growth, frequent reduction of major shareholders’ holdings, weak growth of new business and evaporation of market value. At this time, changing coaches and reducing prices is the initiative of good shops to change under heavy pressure.

Judging from the stock price performance, the capital market is paying for this news. On the two trading days (December 1st and December 4th) after the news was released, the stock price of Liangpin Store went up continuously. As of the close of December 5th, the stock price of Liangpin Store rose by 23.84% in three days.

However, returning to the business of good shops, there is still great uncertainty about the effectiveness of this price reduction.

1, change coaches, reduce prices, and good shops look for a "way out"

Good shops have been moving frequently recently. First, after the change of the board of directors on November 27th, Yang Yinfen, who resigned as the general manager in September last year, returned to the stage to replace Yang Hongchun as the general manager and the new chairman. Then, on November 30th, Yang Yinfen, who just took office for three days, announced in an internal letter that he would start major reforms and implement the largest price reduction in 17 years.

Inside the good shop, Yang Yinfen’s nickname is "Yang Yidao", which is taken from his decisiveness and courage. According to the evaluation of insiders of good shops, unlike Yang Hongchun’s "partial idealism", Yang Yinfen’s style is "more pragmatic".

Yang Yinfen’s most famous record is to lead the team to win the e-commerce transformation. In 2012, with the number of stores in Liangpin Store exceeding 1,000, and the emergence of online snack brands such as three squirrels, Liangpin Store began to plan the layout of e-commerce. Yang Yinfen undertook the operation of e-commerce and successfully turned online into the second growth engine of good shops-in 2016, online revenue reached 1.425 billion yuan, accounting for over 30% of revenue.

Yang Yinfen has a deep understanding of the snack track and the retail industry, and he also understands that the market environment and industry situation faced by good shops are different now. Yang Yinfen bluntly said in her internal letter that the 17-year-old boutique shop is facing the most difficult challenge since it started its business. "It is not only a difficult problem to live, but a question of whether it can live or not."

Indeed, the current situation of good shops can be said to be internal and external difficulties.

Externally, industry competition is intensifying. Offline snacks are very busy, Zhao Yiming snacks and other discount snack shops, as well as special sales shops such as good sale and hi-special purchase, continue to impact the market share of good shops. Before online, there are online celebrity brands such as Wang Xiaolu and a1 Snack Research Institute, and later, there are white brands such as Bibizan with "cheap bowls", which have a considerable growth rate, which also intensifies the competition faced by good shops on the e-commerce platform.

Internally, the performance of good shops is getting worse. After years of increasing income without increasing profits, the revenue of good shops has declined year-on-year for three consecutive quarters this year. The financial report shows that the revenue of the good shop in the third quarter was 2.013 billion yuan, down 4.53% year-on-year; The net profit was 19.98 million, a year-on-year decrease of 97.88%; Deducting non-net profit loss was 2,078,800 yuan, down 102.31% year-on-year.

At the same time, major shareholders, including Today Capital and Gaoyao Capital, reduced their holdings of good shops and chose to cash out. In particular, today’s capital, which was invested as an early investor in 2010, has been firmly held for more than ten years. Since this year, it has also significantly reduced its holdings of the company’s shares, which has aggravated the market’s concerns about good shops.

At the time of internal and external difficulties, the good shop was replaced by Yang Yinfen, who can fight hard, and the first thing that Newspeak did after taking office was to cut the knife inward and try to force the organization to improve efficiency and reverse the current passive situation through an unprecedented price reduction measure.

It is reported that in order to ensure that "the price reduction does not degrade the quality", the products that good shops take the lead in reducing prices are mainly concentrated on 300 snacks with cost optimization but high repurchase rate, with an average decrease of 22% and the highest price decrease of 45%.

Good shop products, Tuyuan good shop official Weibo.

It is worth noting that this is not a simple price reduction promotion, but a price reduction based on reducing costs and increasing efficiency. Behind this is a comprehensive reform of the cost pricing strategy of the good shop in the past years.

Yang Yinfen believes that in the past, under the concept of high-quality snacks, the company failed to balance the relationship between quality and price, and made some qualities that consumers didn’t care about, which caused misunderstandings to users. He demanded that every penny spent on quality in the future should be felt and recognized by consumers. In short, the quality that consumers can’t see or feel, no matter how good it is, is useless.

Yang Yinfen intends to adjust according to the three types of products: high-quality, intermediate layer and bottom, and to lay down the standards that consumers in the intermediate layer don’t care about raw materials and auxiliary materials.

Take nuts as an example. In the past, this raw material-based product used to purchase products with specified specifications from suppliers. Because of its high grade, the procurement cost has remained high. After the reform, on the one hand, the good shop brought the purchase of bulk nut raw materials into the direct procurement system with suppliers, on the other hand, it changed the strategy of raw material acquisition, and the raw materials were used in different grades after being collected by the market, and different types of products were made with different types and grades of raw materials.

For example, the raw materials of macadamia nuts are changed from imported to domestic, and at the same time, according to the different specifications of the products, they are used to produce canned nuts, bagged products and comprehensive nuts. Small fruit has the advantage of high kernel opening rate and fullness, so it is used in comprehensive kernel products. According to public reports, by maximizing the use of raw materials, the price of each type of products has dropped by 5-10 yuan.

At the same time, in order to fully support the price reduction strategy, good shops have also made many innovations in the supply chain. For example, for cake baking products, good shops and suppliers have cooperated in the production of special lines and exclusive production lines, and nearly 30 SKUs have been reduced in price.

More than that, from the practice of "squeezing water" in different links, even to the material of express carton. It is reported that on the basis of the 18.4% reduction in the cost of logistics cartons in the New Year Festival, good shops expect to reduce the cost by another 8.62 million yuan in 2024.

But can the price reduction measures really help the good shops reverse the situation as they wish? From many aspects, it is not enough to just reduce the price. What good shops need is a more systematic breakthrough.

2. Price reduction is only the first spear, and good shops have more to do.

The competition for the "lowest price" has intensified in recent years. Pinduoduo’s brilliant financial report proves that consumers are increasingly sensitive to prices. Ali upgraded 1688 to the first-class business of Taotian Group, and JD.COM also launched a low-price strategy. Consumer brands at different tracks either announced price cuts or launched low-price sub-brands, and the trend of low prices has swept the entire consumer industry.

Specific to the leisure snack track, in recent years, it has been highly sought after by the capital market, and most of them are snack discount stores and special sales stores that focus on cost performance and low price discounts. These new snack brands have greatly affected the status of the old snack giants in the rivers and lakes, and even have the trend of overtaking.

On the one hand, the price reduction measures of good shops are to deal with the impact of various new snack models on the offline business of good shops, on the other hand, it is also necessary to solve a problem, that is, the balance between high-end positioning and price reduction strategies.

In fact, if you simply compare the price, it is difficult for a good shop to compete with a snack shop. According to the White Paper on Hard Discount of Snacks in China released by new distributors in October, the price of discount snack shops sinking into the community is 20%-40% cheaper than that of traditional retail stores.

According to the research report of Everbright Securities, by the end of 2022, the customer unit price of a good shop was in 70 yuan, while the snacks were only 30-40 yuan when they were busy, but at the same time, the daily income of a good shop was only 6,000 yuan, while the snacks were as high as over 10,000 yuan when they were busy. This means that snacks are very busy, and snack hypermarkets really use low prices as weapons, which has successfully increased the revenue of single stores.

Snacks are very busy in the store, and Tuyuan snacks are very busy in the official Weibo

Although the gross profit margin of high-end snack brands such as good shops is relatively high because of high pricing, with the loss of customers and the decline in revenue, it is difficult for good shops without scale advantages to maintain high gross profit. According to the financial report, in the third quarter of this year, the gross profit margin of good shops from franchise business and direct retail business decreased by 3.01 and 4.97 percentage points respectively, and the profitability continued to decline.

After the overall price reduction, it will inevitably further impact the profit space of good shops, which puts forward higher requirements for the supply chain efficiency and cost control of good shops.

Different from the pursuit of low prices in snack shops, Yang Yinfen has repeatedly stressed the need to adhere to the road of "high-quality snacks" while announcing the overall price reduction. From the action point of view, the good shop also landed the first "Snack Kingdom" store in Wuhan Economic Development Zone in July, with a store area of 1,200 square meters and over 3,000 SKUs.

Price reduction and high-end, good shops seem to have to pay attention to both. Compared with the main brand, it still needs to carry high-quality positioning, and it needs big stores and image stores to establish brands. It seems that the snack shop brand "Snacks Hard Home" launched by good shops at the end of last year is used for low-cost volume and scale. The latter focuses on opening stores in Hubei with the slogan "Cheap is the last word". According to official data, as of October 13th, there were more than 300 stores in Hubei Province, covering the whole area of Hubei Province.

According to public information, the daily turnover of Snacks Hard Home is 10,000-15,000 yuan, the comprehensive gross profit margin is 22%, and the customer unit price is 33-35 yuan, which is equivalent to other snack discount stores. If it develops smoothly, the snack stubborn family is expected to become a new growth engine for good shops.

But the problem is that it seems that the positioning between the two is not clear inside the good shop. Although stubborn snacks mainly sell third-party brands, they are directly supplied by docking snacks and water drinks brands, but many products sold in stores originate from the existing supply chain of good shops, and the only difference is whether they are branded or not.

Although the shared supply chain provides convenience for the expansion of snack stubborn families, consumers can buy the same products at a lower price, which will inevitably affect the sales of good shops. After the large-scale price reduction of good shops, the price band is gradually approaching the stubborn snack family, and the competition between the two may bring greater internal friction.

After the "high-end snacks" strategy was put forward in 2019, Liangpin Shop also launched a number of high-end sub-brands, including the brand "Xiaoshixian", which focuses on children’s snacks, "Liangpin Feiyang" and "Controlled Multi-card", which focus on healthy meal replacement, and "solving Tang’s worries" for diabetic patients. With the large-scale price reduction of good shops, there are still many problems to be solved in how to position and coordinate the development of these sub-brands with the main brands.

For good shops, it is still a top priority to sort out the positioning and boundaries between internal brands and think about the effectiveness of the "price reduction" strategy at the level of the whole group to maximize the efficiency of the overall business.

3, the market has changed, and good shops have to go through "pain"

When discussing the price reduction measures of good shops, a big background that cannot be ignored is that the situation of snack track is different from the past.

In recent years, the overall growth of snack track has slowed down. According to the consulting report of Ai Media, the market size of snack food industry in China will increase from 410 billion yuan to 1,165.4 billion yuan from 2010 to 2022, and it is estimated that the market size of snack food industry in China will reach 1,237.8 billion yuan in 2027, and the snack food market will change from a rapid incremental market to a slight incremental market. Based on this, Ai Media Consulting believes that the leisure snack market will be more competitive in the future, and innovative products will replace old-fashioned products.

The intensity of competition on the track can be seen from the price. Another important signal is that the fierce competition of snack track has reached the turning point, especially the snack supermarket track with the highest price, and industry mergers and acquisitions have begun to appear frequently.

On November 10th, the track leader Snacks was very busy and announced a strategic merger with Zhao Yiming Snacks. After the merger, the number of stores will exceed 6,500, making it the company with the largest number of discount snack chain brands.

In addition, the mergers and acquisitions of small and medium-sized players in the industry are also endless-Wanchen Group integrates its four brands: Lu Xiaochan, Ya Didi, Haoxianglai and Laiyoupin, and unifies them into "Haoxianglai"; Hunan "Love Snacks" successively won four snack brands: Hu Weihong, Dinosaur, Teddy and Snack Bubble. South China’s discount snacks represent the brand "snack cabin" and strategically integrate the Guangdong chain "snacks".

The homogenization of snack track determines that low-price competition is the norm, and only scale can bring profit space and keep the brand alive. Behind this series of actions, it is the snack brand that tries to unite Lian Heng, expand its scale advantage and seize the right to exist.

The delay in realizing large-scale profit of snacks introduced by good shops stems from the lack of scale. At the performance conference in the first half of 2023, Liangpin Store once said that the profits of stubborn snacks can only be basically tied, because the company entered the discount snack format late and has not yet formed a scale advantage, and there will be a scale effect after more than 500 stores. Therefore, the good shop put forward the plan of opening 500 new stores in 2023.

However, the problem is that even if the number of stubborn snacks stores is expanded to 500, the scale effect is still a drop in the bucket compared with the merged snacks that are busy and Zhao Yiming snacks. Even if snacks are busy and Zhao Yiming snacks fail to form an absolute leading edge, which means that the price and scale competition in the industry will continue.

At present, snack shops that are still struggling are still rapidly expanding their stores. For good shops, price reduction is an active choice and a passive challenge. Snacks are an optional consumer product with obvious homogenization. Consumers lack loyalty to the brand, and the price is often the core competitiveness. At this time, there is still a chance to compete with snack mass-market stores by reducing the price. If we continue to stick to the high-end positioning, the good shop may become a "small and beautiful" brand, but the market share will inevitably decline.

Interestingly, after two consecutive daily limit stops, Liangpin Store issued an announcement on the evening of December 4, saying that the products covered by the price reduction measures accounted for only 13.5% of the total revenue in the first half of the year.

The implication is that this price adjustment is only an adjustment within the controllable risk. It is conceivable that if the price reduction measures take effect, the good shops will inevitably implement the price reduction measures on a larger scale, which will surely set off a new round of "price war" in the industry, and the good shops themselves will have to undergo top-down reforms, and it may be inevitable to experience "pain", but only by finding a way out can the good shops not fall behind in the highly competitive industry.

Shen Teng’s bad comedy: I can’t stand being manipulated by people who have no sense of humor

Creative fancy photo


1905 movie network news  On June 11th, the first press conference was held in Beijing, which was the return of writers and directors Yan Fei and Peng Damo after three years. On the same day, they also led the full cast of Shen Teng, Vivian Sung, Zhang Yiming, Chang Yuan and Wei Xiang.

Shen Teng

As the name suggests, Shen Teng, the star of the film, unexpectedly inherited 1 billion inheritance in "The Richest Man in Xihong City" and became a rich man, so his appearance on that day was also quite imposing — — Not only wearing mink and sunglasses, but also four bodyguards. From the previously exposed trailer, we can see that Wang Duoyu, played by Shen Teng, is quite profligate in "The Richest Man in Xihong City": stocks have to buy the sunset industry that has fallen the most, houses have to live in giant castles, and eating must be lobster … However, in actual shooting, the situation is quite the opposite.

Vivian Sung

According to Shen Teng, the sports car houses in the movies are rented, so needless to say, even those "delicious foods" are fake, and I didn’t eat them at all. However, these testimonies were "refuted" by two directors: abalone and lobster are both real, but because NG shot too many pieces, abalone was hard to cook, so it was mistaken for props. Not only that, the two "thrifty" directors also assured the investors: "All the props were not wasted. We used a fish for three months and finally ate it."


Before Shen Teng became the richest man, he was actually the goalkeeper of the third-class team Daxiang in the fourth-tier city of Xihong. At first, Yan Fei and Peng Damo also hoped that Shen Teng could lose weight, but Shen Teng had to stop fitness training because of hydrops on the femoral head during exercise. Although the scene about this process is still joking, Shen Teng has been struggling with "illness" in the process of filming "The Richest Man in Xihong City" and "Harmony".

Shen Teng’s on-site suit buttons burst open and provoked hilarious laughter

However, as a comedy, The Richest Man in Xihong City admitted that it had no intention of "selling badly" in the publicity process. Shen Teng said that many films will say that their productions are sincere. "We are not only sincere, but also really funny." Not only that, he also lamented the bad movies in the comedy movie circle: "I can’t stand many people who have no sense of humor to manipulate comedy."

Director Yan Fei and Peng Damo.

On July 27th, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" will land in the mainland cinema. Three years ago, "goodbye mr. loser" created a miracle of the dark horse’s counterattack, and the creators also hope that the audience can go into the cinema to support this new film this time. Director Peng Damo also said that the performances of these actors in "The Richest Man in Xihong City" are also the best among all comedies.

Investigation on the case of hunting giant pandas: there is no terminal market for giant panda skins at all.

Topic: picture channel

  


  Data map: Giant Panda China News Agency issued a photo by Jidong


  The mountains present a desolate scene. It was strangely quiet around, and a natural and peaceful atmosphere hung over the valley. In the silent forest, Li Qijun, a 32-year-old farmer, concentrated on finding traces of his prey.


  At dawn, he got up, took a single-barrel shotgun, backpack, plastic woven bag and fruit knife about 1 meter long, and went up the mountain alone. At this point, he had walked for more than two hours, but found nothing.


  Halfway up a mountain, he saw a petite baby panda through the gap in the bamboo forest. In the warm sunshine, it chews bamboo like no one’s watching, and sometimes holds its head high and looks at the world around it.


  With a bang, the panda was shot in one of its hind legs. It struggled to run a short distance, and then it was shot in the abdomen by the second shot. This baby panda, only 9 months old, instantly fell in a pool of blood.


  Li Qijun took out the fruit knife he carried with him and quickly peeled off the whole panda skin and put it into a plastic woven bag. The bones and meat of the panda were abandoned in the same place. Walking in the direction of going home for an hour, he soaked the panda skin in a cold stream. The flowing water can not only keep it fresh, but also make it difficult to give off the smell.


  It was four or five o’clock in the afternoon when I returned home. That night, Li Qijun called a man named Hu Hongqiang to tell all this, and the two of them excitedly discussed the next plan. They thought that the dream of making money for a long time would come true soon.


  Who can get the panda skin?


  Hu Hongqiang and Li Qijun are three years old. Although they are not fellow villagers, the two families are only a few miles apart and have been playing together since childhood. In the mouth of family and folks, both of them are "honest people".


  Hu Hongqiang’s brother, Hu Hongwu, remembers that for a while, they didn’t have much contact. But since Hu Hongqiang met a man named "Gan Hailong", he and Li Qijun have frequent contacts again. Hu Hongwu can often hear his younger brother who lives next door answering Li Qijun’s phone in the middle of the night.


  Hu Hongqiang met Gan Hailong through a man named "Old Man Peng". One day in 2004, Peng Ruyi, a farmer from Longdong Town, Baoxing County, Ya ‘an City, Sichuan Province, was about to go home after seeing the illness from the orthopedic hospital in the neighboring county. While waiting for the bus, he saw a man of similar age waving to him upstairs in the station hotel, and then the man greeted him with a big smile: "Come up and have a cup of boiled water."


  Old man Peng felt that he had nothing to do anyway, so he happily went upstairs to "drink a cup of boiled water." The man upstairs claimed to be Gao, and said that he wanted to do some business in Baoxing County recently, and he hoped to stay at Peng’s house for a few days. Old man Peng has always been hospitable, so he left his home address and phone number to old man Gao. A few days later, the old man Gao went to live in Peng’s house.


  The skinny Peng Ruyi pointed to the second floor of his home and mysteriously told the reporter: "That’s the one, with a woman!"


  He recalled that at the beginning, the old man Gao only said that he had come to buy medicinal materials. Slowly, he expressed interest in black bear skin, and then he asked Peng if anyone could get giant panda skin.


  Peng promised to help inquire. Soon, the old man Gao brought another man named Gan Hailong. Gan introduced himself that he was in his early 50 s and worked for a Japanese boss who opened a factory in Chongqing. Lao Gao and Lao Gan lived together in Peng Jia, and quietly inquired during the day in Longdong, Wulong and Yongfu areas of Baoxing County.


  Baoxing County, formerly known as Muping, is located in the transition zone between Sichuan Basin and Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Alpine meadows, steep mountains and subtropical climate provide a favorable environment for wildlife habitat. In ancient times, it was the settlement of the Qiang people in Tsing Yi. Before 1930s, it was the jurisdiction of Tibetan Tusi. In 1869, French priest David discovered a new animal species in Dengjiagou, Baoxing County. This black and white fat guy was named "panda".


  Today, this wedge-shaped land embedded between Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture and Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan is locked as the core protected area of giant pandas. According to the results of the third national survey of giant pandas from 1999 to 2003, there are 143 giant pandas in Baoxing County, ranking the top three among the counties and cities with giant pandas in China.


  However, Baoxing County has always been relatively poor, and its resources mainly include "three heads": wood (wood), water head (hydropower) and stone (building materials). Baoxing people used to live by cutting down trees. After the natural forest was banned in 1998, the county began to develop hydropower and stone industry by taking advantage of the gap between mountains and valleys. However, there are still not many ways for farmers to find a way out. Usually, they plant some corn, potatoes and konjac on steep slopes to make a living.


  Hu Hongqiang is the third in the family, known as "Hu Sanwa". Since 2000, he has started to open a motorcycle in the village. At the end of the day, you can earn tens of dollars. Husband and wife, two children and parents in their 60s, a family of six all live on this income.


  One day, old man Peng wanted to go somewhere and called a "motorcycle". The owner happened to be Hu Hongqiang. On the way, old man Peng and Hu Hongqiang talked about someone who wanted to make panda skins. The speaker is interested, the listener is intentional, and Hu Hongqiang expressed interest. Peng laotou then helped Gao laotou and Hu hongjiang connect the line.


  Gao Laotou told Hu Hongqiang that it was not him who wanted to buy panda skin, but someone else. So under the introduction of Gao, Hu Hongqiang met Gan Hailong at Peng’s home for the first time. Old man Peng remembers that Hu Hongqiang once said to Gan Hailong, "It’s easy to get panda skins. Find some pig and sheep bones to burn. The giant pandas will come when they smell the smell."


  Gan Hailong immediately said: as long as there is panda skin, the big boss in Japan can pay a high price, and the big boss is very capable. After the factory he opened made a lot of money, he has settled the Chongqing police. As long as he delivers it to Chongqing, there will definitely be no risk.


  After meeting with Gan Hailong, Hu Hongqiang let Gan live in his home for more than 20 days. During this period, he took advantage of the opportunity of driving a motorcycle and asked around who could get the panda skin. One day, a man named Feng Xiangyun claimed that he had the goods, but he had to pay a deposit of 50,000 yuan first. After some lobbying by Hu Hongqiang, Feng Xiangyun agreed to pay only 10,000 yuan to see the goods. Gan Hailong agreed to give money, but let Hu Hongqiang write an IOU, and the IOU must be written as 15,000 yuan.


  Hu Hongqiang gave 10,000 yuan to Feng Xiangyun. After Feng took the money, he "played missing". Later, Gan Hailong left. One day, Hu Hongqiang’s wife Dong Moumou received a phone call from Gan Hailong.


  "He said on the phone that if he didn’t get the money, he would kill our family." The 36-year-old rural woman shivered with memories.


  Hu Hongqiang later thought of Li Qijun. Because the village where Li lives has a tradition of hunting, his father is also a famous local hunter. After several contacts, Li Qijun accepted the deal.


  June 5th, 2007 is the "World Environment Day", and countless people are worried about global warming. On June 6th, Li Qijun shot and killed the giant panda.


  Who directed all this?


  Like thousands of local ravines, Li Qijun hides the red ravine with giant panda skin, hidden in the lush mountains.


  On the second day after hitting the giant panda, Li Qijun took Hu Hongqiang to the stream where the giant panda skin was hidden. After reading it, Li Qijun was afraid that Hu Hongqiang would steal the panda skin, and went up the mountain again to hide it in a different place.


  After returning home, Hu Hongqiang quickly called Gan Hailong to report "good news" and agreed to meet in Rongchang County, Chongqing. On June 12th, Hu Hongqiang met Gan Hailong and "Japanese boss’s translator" in a hotel near Rongchang County Bus Station. The three agreed that the transaction price was 500,000 yuan and the delivery date was June 14th.


  Li Qijun asked to go to Rongchang with Hu Hongqiang. The two rented a minivan and set off at noon on June 15th. Li Qijun also called his girlfriend Zhang Ruiying and only told her to go to Chongqing to play. Before going out, Hu Hongqiang borrowed 500 yuan from his relatives and told his wife that he was delayed in Baoxing that night and would not go home.


  At about 2 am on June 16th, Hu Hongqiang and his party arrived in Rongchang County, stayed at Hongyu Hotel not far from the bus station, stuffed the goods under the bed, and then contacted Gan Hailong.


  Gan Hailong came to inspect the goods with "the translator of the Japanese boss". When Hu Hongqiang dragged the giant panda skin out from under the bed and just presented it to the buyer, suddenly, a group of policemen broke in from outside the door. Li Qijun and Hu Hongqiang were quickly handcuffed and sent to Rongchang County Detention Center. Two months later, Li and Hu were sentenced to 10 years and six months in prison for selling and transporting precious wild animals, and each was fined 20,000 yuan.


  However, a detail when Li and Hu were arrested caught Zhang Ruiying’s attention.


  At that time, she was sleeping in the next room After hearing the noise, she found that both Li Qijun and Hu Hongqiang were handcuffed. She was stunned.


  "I quickly asked the police what was going on?" Zhang Ruiying recalled afterwards. At that time, a policeman named Tang Jun told her what had happened, questioned her and let her go.


  "At that time, there was a man with a moustache squatting on the ground without handcuffs." Careful Zhang Ruiying felt embarrassed. "Later, a car with Hu Hongqiang and Li Qijun drove east, and a man with a moustache drove west."


  Zhang Ruiying returned to Baoxing County overnight. She learned about Gan Hailong from Hu’s family. According to Hu Jia’s description of Gan Hailong’s characteristics, it is exactly the same as the "moustache" she saw in Rongchang.


  "Intuitively, I suspect that this Gan Hailong is a liar." So she searched the internet for relevant information.


  From the online news reports, she found many "clues" that were hardly noticed in the past. Several cases of panda skin trafficking uncovered by Chongqing Rongchang police in recent years are all related to this Gan Hailong: in the case of Gou Chengxue and Yang Shicheng, which were uncovered in 2002, the freight car was seized by the well-prepared police just after leaving the Sangjiapo toll station of Chengdu-Chongqing Expressway; At the end of 2003, three people, including Gao Jiaru in Yucheng District, Ya ‘an City, were sold by Gan and others for 1.1 million yuan for two panda skins, and were also arrested at the Sangjiapo toll station of Chengdu-Chongqing Expressway. However, after investigation, they were fake panda skins.


  What surprised Zhang Ruiying even more was this news: Two years ago, Sun Shiqun, a 16-year-old woman from Yingjing County, Ya ‘an, Sichuan Province, brought a fake panda skin to Chongqing for sale, and Rongchang police disguised as a buyer to connect with it. However, after investigation, the skin was counterfeit, and the police kept quiet and gave up the sale and let it go. In February this year, the old woman finally came to Chongqing again with the real panda skin, and was caught by the police. This case is also related to people named Gan.


  "From 2001 to now, Chongqing has investigated four cases of Ya ‘an people hunting and selling giant panda skins, with a total of five skins. The hunting place is in Ya ‘an, Sichuan, but the solving place is in Rongchang, Chongqing. Up to now, none of the criminals who bought panda skins have been arrested and none have been sentenced. How to explain this? " Zhang Ruiying asked puzzled.


  She went to Yingjing County, where Sun Shiqun was located, and finally found her daughter Xiong Yilian. She found that Xiong Yilian was also suspicious of Gan Hailong. According to Xiong Yilian’s memory, Gan Hailong once lived in her house for more than a month, and cheated Sun Shiqun of more than 10,000 yuan in the name of helping to buy konjac seeds.


  Xiong Yilian’s leg is a little lame because of polio. She and her mother live together and make a living by wholesale mingbi. As early as two years ago, Xiong Yilian felt that Gan Hailong had an evil intention and reminded his mother many times.


  "My mother’s brain is not good," she said with tears in her eyes. "She can’t even count. When someone comes to buy something when I’m not at home, she asks the other person to write down the number of purchases on paper and ask for money when I come back."


  According to Xiong Yilian’s memory, because her disability was the most worrying thing for her mother Sun Shiqun, Gan promised: "After the job is done, she will be sent to Chongqing Grand Hospital to cure the disease."


  "Is it Gan Hailong or even Rongchang police who directed all this behind the scenes?" Two women in the same boat can’t even believe such a guess.


  After Li Qijun’s original wife died, she left a child. After being introduced, after he met Zhang Ruiying, the two sides had a good impression. They originally planned to get married and prepare to start a new life. Sun Shiqun, a 60-year-old woman, wondered if there was any chance to return to her disabled daughter who lived alone …


  After much consideration, Zhang Ruiying became more and more convinced that his judgment was not groundless. In a letter to "National People’s Congress, State Forestry Administration, Provincial People’s Congress, Provincial Forestry Department and Baoxing County People’s Congress", she pointed out bluntly: "The forestry public security bureau of Rongchang County, Chongqing, which handled the case, put informants at the weaknesses of farmers in mountainous areas, such as simplicity, poverty and weak legal awareness, and used money to induce local farmers to hunt and sell giant panda skins."


  "They are the poorest, the most ignorant, the most desperate, and the most easily deceived people," said Zhang Ruiying. "For the poor people whose income is only a few thousand yuan a year, what is the temptation for informants to pay hundreds of thousands or millions of yuan?"

Development history and team

Guangzhou Automobile Ai ‘an is a new energy automobile company under Guangzhou Automobile Group. Founded in July 2017, it was originally named GAC New Energy Co., Ltd.,In 2020, it was renamed Guangzhou Automobile Aian New Energy Automobile Co., Ltd..

In 2021, Ai ‘an started mixed reform, completed asset restructuring and equity incentive, and introduced employee stock ownership platform and three strategic investors, namely Ai ‘an Fund, China Chengtong and China Southern Power Grid.

In 2022, Ai ‘an completed the shareholding system reform and completed the A round of financing in October.53 strategic investors were introduced, with a total financing of 18.294 billion yuan.

According to the plan, the listing will be launched at the end of 2023.

Born out of Guangzhou Automobile Group, Ai ‘an’s team is the backbone of Guangzhou Automobile Group.

Feng Xingya, chairman of the board

Since 2004, he has worked in GAC, and has served as management in brands such as GAC Toyota, GAC Mitsubishi and GAC Fick.

General Manager Gu Huinan

He has been engaged in the automobile industry for 34 years and served as the core technical backbone of Guangzhou Peugeot, Dongfeng Honda Engine Factory and GAC Toyota. He has 14 invention patents and successfully traded many explosive models. Engine, vehicle, intelligent network technology experts.

Zheng Chunqi made VP by wisdom.

He has been engaged in the automobile industry for 29 years, and has worked in French, Japanese and private brands successively. He is a practical expert of Honda’s lean production and leads the construction of the core industrial cluster of Industry 4.0.

Xiao Yong sales VP

Wuyang Honda, with 15 years of supply chain experience, has created a world-class supply chain system of Guangzhou Automobile’s own brand and is the founder of Guangzhou Automobile’s own brand marketing system.

Cao weibing finance VP

He has served as the chief financial officer of the research institute and the head of Guangzhou Automobile Investment Department, led many mergers and acquisitions, has rich M&A experience, and is a core member of the H-share listing of Guangzhou Automobile Group.

Xi Zhongmin technology VP

Engaged in the automobile industry for 26 years, he was the core technical backbone of Guangzhou Automobile Chuanqi, led the technical development of EV+ICV, and had rich experience in supply chain and cost control.

The core team’s ability map is perfect, and they all have rich experience in the automobile industry.Moreover, there is an important factor. Most of the management have the experience of working in Guangzhou Automobile Chuanqi, and they are familiar with the company culture and work rhythm and cooperate smoothly. This is also much less running-in time than other entrepreneurial teams.

In terms of equity relations,After the completion of the A round of financing, GAC is still an absolute shareholder, holding 64.89% of the shares.In addition, Guangzhou Automobile’s Guangzhou Automobile Passenger Car holds 12% of the shares. The total share of real external investors is only 19.37%.

It is worth noting that before and after the A round of financing, the biggest change in shareholding ratio was Guangzhou Automobile Group, which shows that the financing transfer is mainly the shares of Guangzhou Automobile Group.

core competitiveness

As an important independent brand of Guangzhou Automobile Group, Guangzhou Automobile Ai ‘an was born with a golden spoon and received many resources from Guangzhou Automobile Group.

The first is financial support.Since its establishment in 2017, the first round of financing has been completed only after the start of mixed reform. After its establishment, all the work has been promoted almost simultaneously, and the first phase of factory construction with an investment of 4.697 billion and a production capacity of 200,000 vehicles per year has been started; The opening of the first experience center and so on. Before completing the A round of financing, Ai ‘an has completed the second phase expansion and commissioning of the intelligent ecological factory, and completed the commissioning of the second intelligent manufacturing center.

Followed by resource support.At the beginning of its establishment, it signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Tencent, and Ma Huateng personally attended the signing. Subsequently, it signed an intention agreement with eight dealers to build a store.

The support of resources is not just cooperation.Ai ‘an can undertake the research, development, production and marketing foundation of Guangzhou Automobile Group.Relying on the Automotive Engineering Research Institute of Guangzhou Automobile Group, it can integrate the global R&D network; Establish long-term and stable strategic cooperation with top suppliers in the world; Undertake the production mode and marketing system of GAC.

In terms of technology, GAC has accumulated in the fields of hybrid and car Internet. It has released the first medium-heavy hybrid vehicle in China, and realized the in-vehicle Internet technology. Relevant technical exploration can be directly applied to Ian.

With the empowerment of GAC, Ai ‘an undertook the vertical industry consolidation model. In the annual report, GAC said that it will accelerate the establishment of a vertically integrated new energy industrial chain layout of "lithium mine+basic lithium battery raw material production+battery production+energy storage and charging and replacing services+battery leasing+battery recycling and step utilization".

Ai ‘an chose the technical route of "EV (pure electric) +ICV (intelligent networking)".

At present, the breakthrough of EV technology is obvious. Ai ‘an launched GEP, the exclusive platform for pure electricity. Gu Huinan revealed that the new model based on GEP3.0 has achieved mass production and has the characteristics of low cost and good NHV (noise, vibration and stability).

In 2020, Ai ‘an released a two-speed dual-motor "four-in-one" integrated electric drive. The value of this technology is that it can accelerate 100 companies to less than 2 seconds.The Hyper SSR supercar released at the end of last year, the official said that the acceleration of 100 kilometers was 1.9 seconds.

In 2021, Ai ‘an released "magazine battery" and sponge silicon anode battery technology.Among them, "magazine battery" mainly overcomes the safety of ternary lithium battery, and public information shows that "magazine battery" can prevent acupuncture from catching fire. If the safety of ternary lithium battery is guaranteed, its advantage of high energy density can be further released. Officially, sponge silicon anode battery technology can reduce the volume and weight of lithium-ion battery cells by 20% and 14%, which will greatly improve the energy density of cells.At present, AION LX Plus can support 1008km endurance (CLTC).

In addition, in terms of charging, Juwan Technology Research, a startup company hatched by Guangzhou Automobile Research Institute, has developed graphene-based super fast charging technology, which can achieve the highest charging speed of 6C rate. At present, the 6C version of AION V Plus model has been listed.The official said that it can fill 80% in 8 minutes, and it can fill 207km in 5 minutes.

In the field of ICV, Ai ‘an has launched ADIGO intelligent driving interconnection ecosystem and Che Yun integrated electronic and electrical architecture. In 2021, Ai ‘an released the ADIGO 4.0 system. Intelligent driving is a self-developed L4 scheme in cooperation with Huawei, Didi and Baidu. It is estimated that 1,000 L4 demonstration vehicles will be launched in the past two years, and it is planned to achieve large-scale application by 2025. Also in 2021, Ai ‘an also launched Che Yun’s integrated centralized computing electronic and electrical architecture "Spirit Architecture", which is planned to be mass-produced this year and becomeChe Yun integrated centralized electronic and electrical architecture, the first mass production in China.

On the key technological breakthrough, Ai ‘an used the way of independence+joint venture and cooperation to fill the shortcomings and ensure the core components to be self-controllable. Therefore, Ai ‘an has many bright spots in the three-electricity technology, and in the fields of intelligent cockpit, the experience has been improved faster through cooperation.

Product performance

Since its establishment, Aeon has released Hyper GT(2022.12), Hyper SSR(2021.9), AION LX (2019.10)/LX Plus (January), AION V (2020.6)/V Plus (September), AION Y(2021.4) and AION S (January). Among the delivered models, each model is divided into multiple versions, which basically covers the main price range of 150,000-500,000.

The earliest S and Y series are still the absolute main force of sales. S is a mid-range car, and the current price range is between 146,800 and 165,800; Listed in 2019, it still maintains strong competitiveness. According to the data of the Federation, last year, the S series was always on the list.In March of this year, the S series rushed to the third place, surpassing Hongguang MINI, Model 3 and BYD Han.

Y series is a compact pure electric SUV, which was released in April, 2021. At present, the price range is between 119,800 and 153,800 yuan. The Y series is very cost-effective, and the price of 610km battery life is only 153,800 yuan. You know, the maximum battery life of Model Y is only 594KM, and Tucki G3 doesn’t even have a 600km version. Both models are expensive. In terms of sales volume,Y series can wrestle with BYD Tang Heyuan series, and it was also on the list last year. Sales in February and March this year have been the top five.

But,Outside the S and Y series, the sales of other series of Ai ‘an are not satisfactory.The sales of AION V series, another SUV model, struggled on the edge of the Federation list. It fell out of the list many times in 2022 and has not been on the list since November; AION LX didn’t even make the list.

This is not a good signal, although it has become the top 5 new energy sales with S and Y series, killing a number of new forces. However, these two models are generally below 160,000, and the brand market appeal of the higher price segment has not been clearly demonstrated.

What people are looking forward to is the Hyper series, which is positioned in the super run. From the brand naming, the Hyper series has obviously jumped out of the original naming rules, and the latest Hyper GT has been set at 219,900 yuan.Such a low-priced GT coupe has a rotor door and a three-stage tail, which is obviously laid out to a higher price segment by means of low price and high allocation.It may make Ai ‘an have a different performance and drive it to break through the high-end barrier.

Financial performance

According to the published data, the sales volume of GAC Ai ‘an in 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022 reached 42,003, 60,033, 120,155 and 271,156 respectively.Both are doubling the growth rate.

Due to the increase in sales, revenue will inevitably rise. In the last four years, the revenue was 5.234 billion yuan, 7.61 billion yuan, 17.265 billion yuan and 38.703 billion yuan respectively; The growth rate has doubled in the last two years. Ai ‘an’s revenue has accounted for 35% of GAC’s total revenue, and it is getting closer to GAC Chuanqi, and is becoming another pillar of its own brand.

But the problem is,Ai’ an is still supported by cost-effective explosions, and ASP has been maintained at 120,000-140,000, which is slightly lower in 2022 than in 2021.Cost-effective explosions are difficult to improve profit margins, coupled with the large investment in research and development in the early stage, the cost of all kinds of cars has increased, and the loss of Ai’ an is also difficult to avoid.

Due to Guangzhou Automobile’s vertical integration strategy, it needs to invest more money in the industrial chain. For the purpose of raising funds in Guangzhou Automobile’s A-round capital increase project, Ai ‘an said that it will focus on the research and development of new products, the research and development of new generation batteries and electric drives, the industrialization construction, and the research and development and industrialization layout of core technologies such as intelligent driving, intelligent cockpit, energy ecology and capacity expansion.

It can be seen that the battery, intelligent driving and intelligent cockpit are not subject to people, and it is expected to extend further upstream.

There is still great uncertainty about success. After all, Aeon is still extremely dependent on AION S and Y series. Although these two models are very eye-catching, the progress of leaping to the middle and high end is not very smooth. The ultimate goal of comprehensive car companies like GAC is the product layout in the full price range and they are all competitive. At present, car companies have generally encountered obstacles from the low price range to the high price range, and this is also the key point of Aeon.

(reporting)

Across the Furious Sea finally predicted that Bo Huang’s emotional breakdown revealed human nature.


1905 movie network news Recently, the film released the ultimate preview of "Misplaced Love", which revealed the plot line of Lao Jin and Nana’s father and daughter for the first time, and unveiled the family of origin problem hidden behind the girl murder from a new perspective. The film will be released nationwide on November 25th, and the pre-sale has started.


The ultimate announcement of the new release is different from the past, and the image of Laojin (ornaments) is no longer just a father who simply revenges his daughter. Under the anger of his father’s revenge for his daughter, the wounds of family of origin, which were concealed behind the murder, were torn apart. The girl was killed with 17 knives, and her father, Lao Jin, was furious at his daughter’s bad news. He chased the murderer for thousands of miles and missed the funeral. Finally, he didn’t even know where his daughter was buried. In the face of his ex-wife’s hysterical curse "May God repay you" and the questioning and anger of people around him, "Do you really love her?" "You don’t love her at all," Lao Jin asked his heart. "There are so many things I can’t say," but late repentance can’t make up for the lack of love. The truth is confusing. It seems that the lack of love in growing up is inextricably linked with Nana’s death. Nana’s death is a punishment for Laojin’s lack of fatherly love? Is family of origin the first stab at Nana? The truth is far more complicated than it seems, waiting to surface.


Since the premiere of the film, it has been well received by people in the industry, the media and film critics, and even directors, actors, actresses, etc. have shared their feelings of long articles on social platforms and started Amway spontaneously.


Across the Furious Sea combined the topic of family of origin with the types of crimes, and the director stated in the interview, "There are countless examples and introductions in life. It is definitely not a good work to transfer what happened in real life to creation, and the role of living in creation is in the bones. To find and open up the desired expression in the creative ontology, it is necessary to inject some vitality into the film, and ultimately it is the audience’s thinking about it. "


In the face of the deep digging of the family of origin issue, Bo Huang, who plays Laojin, has a profound interpretation and feeling. In the final preview, Laojin’s psychology is very complicated when he cries in the cemetery. He has remorse in his heart, but there are also elements to alleviate his guilt. Bo Huang talked about the understanding of the role and said, "Laojin’s strong desire for revenge has something for his daughter, but it also comes from something beyond the feelings of father and daughter. He can’t agree with the fact that his daughter was stabbed 17 times, which goes beyond the death of his daughter itself. His revenge is more to defend his dignity and dignity. " The complexity of human nature is vividly displayed in this misplaced relationship between father and daughter.
