The "Snow Dragon" polar research ship docked at China, Qingdao, and the 40th Antarctic expedition triumphed.

  On March 26th, BYD’s A0 pure electric SUV Yuan UP came on stage with a starting price of 96,800 yuan. Within three days after listing, the order volume of Yuan UP has exceeded 20,000 vehicles. The terminal retail data of the last week shows that YUAN UP took a fault-like lead with 1846 vehicles and easily won the first place. There is no suspense in the new king of A0 SUV.

  Urban transportation is the best choice, and the sales volume is not unexpected.

  It is expected that the listing of Yuan UP will explode.

  First of all, Yuan family has always been highly concerned among young consumer groups. Once launched, "Dayuan" Yuan PLUS has occupied the top position of A-class pure electricity sales for a long time and has become the first choice for quality families at home and abroad to increase their purchases. As A0′ s energetic partner, "Xiaoyuan" YUAN UP is more suitable as the first car for young people. The word "UP" symbolizes the spiritual core of the new generation’s continuous upward and aggressive strength.

  Furthermore, the consumption demand of A0 market has always been very clear, and what we need is an urban commuter scooter with good price and quality. Yuan UP revolves around the core needs of users, and has the quality of "5 good and 1 star" with star platform, good-looking, fun, easy to start, easy to stop and safe. Yuan UP, which has both face value and strength, is the best choice for urban transportation, and it is not surprising that the sales volume is hot.

  7 points cool and handsome, 3 points cute, hitting the hipster.ofFashion weilei

  As a car specially designed for young people, YUAN UP has integrated China traditional culture and interesting elements in its overall design, deliberately breaking the tradition and fitting in with a more fashionable aesthetic orientation.

  Yuan UP’s aesthetic design language not only retains the charm of Dragon Face of the dynasty family, but also adds funk elements such as encircling skirts and wheel eyebrows in details to make the whole car look more agile. "Perfect Ring" Longjing headlights and "Lucky Ring" penetrating taillights echo back and forth, which means full and increases recognition; The outline of the car with a circle in the square and the full curved surface of the car make Yuan UP look cute and cool, and the trendy men and women are moved at a glance.

  In the appearance color matching, many ingenious ideas are also incorporated: relaxed green, pleasing to oneself, dashing gray, bold powder, named after the spontaneous attitude of urban youth, depicting a more personalized driving space.

  The interior design has injected more vitality. Inspired by the closed-loop modeling of electronic circuit, the vitality-embracing cockpit not only retains the encirclement of the dynasty family cockpit, but also injects a brand-new and clear movement posture; The two groups of "halo handles" on the auxiliary instrument panel and the door panel echo each other and progress step by step, like a three-dimensional "Chinese knot", which is full of the trend of modern technology in retro. When you enter the car, you can feel the full vitality of Yuan UP.

  The star is skilled and sincere.

  BYD’s dedication to YUAN UP can be seen from various high-end technologies and full configuration.

  First of all, YUAN UP is BYD’s first A0-class pure electric SUV equipped with E Platform 3.0. This star platform makes pure trams more professional, powerful and reliable. Eight-in-one electric powertrain has the characteristics of high integration, high power density and high efficiency, which makes YUAN UP not only have excellent power (the maximum power is 130kW and the acceleration is 7.9 seconds), but also have lower energy consumption (the minimum power consumption per 100 kilometers is 12 degrees). In the case of daily commuting, it only needs to be charged once a week.

  However, the battery life anxiety caused by battery decay in winter can be easily solved by the wide temperature range high-efficiency heat pump system: it has the wide temperature range working ability of -30~40℃, so that Yuan UP can maintain a good working condition in a low temperature environment and has "true battery life in winter".

  CTB battery body integration technology provides many advantages: it improves the torsional stiffness of the body by 32% and has better handling stability; The amplitude of floor vibration is reduced by 62.9%, and NVH performance is greatly optimized; Optimize the Z-space structure of the whole vehicle, so that the car also has a large space! The wheelbase of 2620 mm and the luggage space of 1320L after the seat is put down greatly enrich the use scene of Yuan UP.

  In addition, Yuan UP’s comfortable configuration is also a leapfrog level: 3D panoramic transparent image, tire pressure monitoring, intelligent voice continuous dialogue, NFC digital key, intelligent power on and off, remote driving, VTOL mobile power station, W-HUD head-up display and other configurations are available, and smart optional packages can be selected for high-profile models to fully meet the needs of different users.

  It is hard to imagine that a 100,000-class pure tram can be "rolled" to this extent. Faced with the contradiction between car cost and experience, and the contradiction between the size and space of A0-class vehicles, YuanUP provides a perfect solution, which shows irreplaceable leapfrog value in the scooter market. Exquisite design and technical Excellence are naturally popular. The leading weekly sales results have announced the explosive position of Yuan UP in A0 SUV market!

Vacancy rates are rising, rents are falling, and the office market in many places continues to cool down

?? In 2001, Boao, a little-known fishing village, became famous overnight because of the Forum for Asia. Over the past 19 years, cars and horses have flowed, and politicians have gathered. As a high-end platform that leads the direction and trend of the world, Boao has witnessed countless miracles that have changed the course of Chinese and even world history.

?

  Charm Boao, Reiki Boao, in addition to miracles, there are more "flag traces". In November, China FAW Hongqi brand high-end new energy vehicle E-HS9 set off from the northern snow country, defeated the Gobi rapids all the way, and after a journey of 6,170 kilometers, it was listed during the Boao Forum of Chinese Entrepreneurs in 2020. On the platform of global attention in Boao, this landmark listing opened not only a door for Hongqi to the world, but also a solemn declaration to the world with confidence and strength: Chinese brands have entered a new era. The ardent expectation of "We must master the key core technologies in our own hands and promote the national automobile brand" is becoming a reality.

  Hongqi E-HS9: A weapon for a new energy country

  "China FAW, especially the Hongqi brand, will keep in mind the expectations of the general secretary, strengthen the sense of mission, seize the opportunity for the transformation of the automobile industry in a century, and strive to achieve a stronger, better and bigger national brand," Xu Liuping, chairperson of FAW, said at the listing site.

Xu Liuping, Chairperson of FAW

  E-HS9, built by the Hongqi brand with global high-quality resources and forward-looking technology, has too many firsts and firsts. Positioned, this car is known as China’s first full-size luxury SUV, with a 5.2-meter length and a 3.1-meter wheelbase. Coupled with a majestic family-style front face, a grille design like a mountain waterfall, sharp headlights, and an overall shape of "Eagle Strikes the Long Sky", the Hongqi E-HS9 has achieved luxury, domineering, and high-end, without losing the image of a solemn and elegant weapon of the country.

  The integrated intelligent interactive cockpit, as well as the seven-screen entertainment system (IVI3.0) composed of a three-sided integrated surround large screen, a central control screen, a rear seat screen, and a rear center armrest large screen, realizes the "thousands of people and thousands of faces" intelligent ecological service created by Hongqi for users, which is magnificent and luxurious, technologically avant-garde, and full of futuristic sense.

  E-HS9 was born in Hongqi Electric Intelligent Connected Vehicle Platform (FME platform). The key indicators of this platform are at the leading level in China, and it has all the intellectual property rights of key core technologies. Relying on this platform, a series of new energy products can be developed. It supports battery packs with capacities of 84kWh and 99kWh. The NEDC range is greater than 500km, and the battery pack life is 10 years or 240,000 km. As the first product under this platform, Hongqi E-HS9 is equipped with two capacity battery packs: 84kWh and 99kWh, which can meet the driving range of the whole vehicle over 400km and 500km.

  The pure electric chassis of the Hongqi E-HS9 is equipped with two high-performance electric drive systems independently developed by FAW, using an electric four-wheel drive structure with front and rear dual motors, with a maximum power of 405kW and a peak torque of 750N · m. Under this strong power drive, the acceleration time of the Hongqi E-HS9 vehicle from 0 to 100km/h is only 4.8 seconds.

  Integrating the eight charms of "Wei, Yi, Zhong, Zhen, Zhi, Xiang, An, E", Hongqi E-HS9 redefines the relationship between people and vehicles in the new era, providing a wonderful "third living space" that integrates travel, rest and entertainment. While pushing the product power of Chinese brand new energy models to a new height, Hongqi E-HS9 has also broken through the ceiling of domestic model prices at 509,800 yuan – 729,800 yuan, directly competing with luxury brand medium and large SUVs.

?

  Soul-level technological breakthrough

  With the determination and belief to realize the autonomy and controllability of key core technologies, China FAW has continuously made breakthroughs in technological breakthroughs and built a comprehensive independent technology layout. The Hongqi E-HS9 has achieved the world’s four first and five original safety technologies.

  The four core technologies include: intelligent driving, high-intelligence dual-redundant chassis system, AR real-life navigation, and wireless charging system. Relying on the forward-looking attributes of FEEA2.0 electronic and electrical architecture, the high-speed autonomous driving system equipped with Hongqi E-HS9 can automatically change lanes according to traffic conditions within the speed range of 0-120km/h, and the response period is less than 10ms. In addition, it can also realize vehicle autonomous positioning, intelligent search for parking spaces, fully automatic parking and entry, and pick-up operations, becoming the first L3-level mass-produced model in China for autonomous driving. Hongqi E-HS9 is also equipped with the world’s first wireless charging technology for power batteries, providing users with wireless alignment image prompts, bringing a convenient parking and charging experience. With the vehicle air suspension, the wireless charging transmission distance is automatically adjusted, and the maximum charging efficiency is greater than 91%.

  The five original safety technologies of the Hongqi brand include active safety, passive safety, high-voltage safety, functional safety and information security. Among them, in terms of active safety, the Hongqi E-HS9 whole vehicle adopts 26 intelligent sensing sensors and V2X communication modules, thus providing comprehensive active safety protection in multiple scenarios such as front/side collision warning, road deviation warning and active braking. In terms of passive safety, the high-strength steel of the Hongqi E-HS9 body accounts for more than 70%. It adopts a 9H safety cage body structure, an 8-airbag system is used in the whole vehicle, and a battery protection structure is added on the side of the body to protect the heart of the battery from being squeezed. In terms of high-voltage safety, a real-time insulation function monitoring and a multi-level insulation alarm mechanism are also established to ensure the safety of the high-voltage system. In terms of functional safety, the Hongqi E-HS9 has reached the safety level ASILD, and the failure probability of the control system has been reduced to the level of 10fit, which means that it can only fail once every 100 million hours of work.

  With the development of the Internet, personal privacy information leakage has become a very serious problem. Hongqi has also done its homework in information security. Hongqi E-HS9 provides multiple protections such as cloud security, pipeline communication security, core controller security protection, and core data security protection to achieve full-path protection and ensure the security of car owner information.

  New patterns, new actions

  At the beginning of 2018, when the new brand strategy was released, Xu Liuping set the new energy direction of the Hongqi brand very clearly. Now, after the Hongqi HS5, Hongqi H5 and other models have built up their brand sales, it is time for new energy vehicles to start to show their strength. It is reported that with E-HS9 as an important representative, Hongqi plans to launch 18 new energy models in the next five years, accounting for more than 85% of all products. Sales will break through 600,000 in 2025 and reach 80-1 million in 2030.

  Since May this year, in response to the increasingly complex international political and economic environment, our country has been accelerating the construction of a new development pattern with domestic circulation as the main body and domestic and international double circulation mutually promoting. The new situation calls for new actions. Facing the new challenges from the opening year of the "14th Five-Year Plan" and the new requirements put forward by the "new development pattern", it bears huge pressure to lead the transformation and upgrading of the automobile industry. How to deepen the reform in the great change of our country’s new energy automobile industry will test the wisdom of the industry.

  "The Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee pointed out the direction for a strong Chinese automobile industry, and drew a blueprint: to guide China’s automobile industry to develop in the direction of’high-quality development, high-quality consumption upgrading, high-tech self-reliance and self-reliance, national autonomous brands becoming stronger, better and bigger, and the automobile industry is a strong country ‘. Xu Liuping said that China FAW earnestly studied and fully implemented the important speech of the Supreme Leader’s General Secretary’s inspection of China FAW and the spirit of the Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee, fully realized high-quality development, and made every effort to move towards a world-class enterprise.

  The development of E-HS9 is not only the extension of the Hongqi brand at the product level and the development of new markets, but also a significant improvement in brand power.

Wang Guoqiang, Standing Committee Member and Deputy General Manager of China FAW Party Committee

  "As a Hongqi brand, our Hongqi E-HS9, which has been transformed and upgraded under the conditions of the new four modernizations, has not only formed the high-end product matrix positioning of our Hongqi H9, but also become a new node of our Hongqi branding. Anchor our new market positioning, help and enhance the Hongqi brand," said Wang Guoqiang, member of the Standing Committee of the FAW Party Committee of China and deputy general manager.

  The most significant thing is that while pulling Chinese brand new energy vehicles to a new height, it also provides a new path for the exploration of the global new energy vehicle industry. It is worth mentioning that after the Hongqi E-HS9 debuted on July 28 and opened blind orders, the market response was extremely hot. So far, the car has received 1,427 orders, including 650 orders from overseas.

  Regarding the much-anticipated "Red Flag Speed", Xu Liuping said in an interview: "Red Flag Speed" is fundamentally the greatest respect and service to consumers, and the never-ending pursuit of technological innovation and product innovation. Simple words tell the true meaning of the rise. This will also be a useful reference for Chinese brand cars to build world-class cars.

  The northern country looks south, and the industry is prosperous. The red flag brand, building a dream of Boao, and then setting up the tide, with a new "flag trace", lifting up a new dream of the country and the hope of the nation.

Check the pickup trucks with fuel-saving mode from the source

At 24: 00 on March 17th, a new round of domestic refined oil price adjustment window was reopened. According to the news of the National Development and Reform Commission, the domestic gasoline and diesel prices increased in 750 yuan and 720 yuan respectively per ton. After the price adjustment, the No.95 gasoline has exceeded 9 yuan per liter. Adding to a price increase at the end of December last year, the domestic refined oil price has risen for six consecutive years, and the cost of car use for migrant workers has increased.

  For pickup trucks that undertake multiple tasks such as production and travel, fuel saving is very important. In recent years, fuel-saving configuration has gradually appeared on domestic pickup trucks, especially the increase of high-end pickup products, which has gradually popularized the ECO economic model. After the ECO mode is turned on, the vehicle will run in the economic mode, the fuel injection quantity will be controlled by the vehicle computer, and the shift logic will be controlled by the gearbox control module, so that the vehicle can run in the most economical mode to achieve the purpose of fuel saving. At present, ECO economic model is becoming more and more common in high-end automatic pickup products.

  Changchengpao

  As a representative work of domestic pickup trucks, 8AT models of Great Wall Gun have fuel-saving economic models to choose from. Among them, the Great Wall commercial gun is equipped with three driving modes: economy, standard and sport, the passenger gun has four driving modes: standard, economy, 4L and sport, and the off-road gun is equipped with seven all-terrain driving control modes (standard, economy, sport, snow, mud, sand and 4L). In the economic mode, the acceleration of the Great Wall Gun is relatively smooth, the throttle and brakes are also very comfortable, and the steering wheel is relatively light, which is suitable for driving on flat sections of the city.

  SAIC Datong T70/T90

  In the domestic pickup truck market, SAIC Chase was the first pickup truck product to launch the ECO ECOnomic model. As early as the T60 was launched in 2017, SAIC Datong simultaneously launched the concept of "three-mode driving", namely eco mode, POWER mode and NORMAL mode. On T70 and T90, which went on the market later, the three-mode driving mode was still continued. When driving on expressways and urban roads, the ECO mode can be started, and the fuel saving effect can be achieved.

  Jiangling domain tiger 9

  As the highest-end product of Jiangling pickup truck, Domain Tiger 9 is not inferior in technology configuration, and it is also the first diesel pickup truck in China to realize 8-speed automatic transmission. Domain Tiger 9 uses the BOG Warner TOD two-speed intelligent four-wheel drive system, which can realize eight different driving modes, such as mud, sand, snow, rock, 4L, 4H, sports mode and economic mode. The car sits comfortably and has a wide field of vision when driving. After the economic mode is turned on, the steering wheel is soft, and its strength and quality can be comparable to those of SUVs at the same price.

  Zhengzhou Nissan Ruiqi 6

  Ruiqi 6 is one of the core products of Zhengzhou Nissan, and it has always had strong competitiveness in the domestic pickup truck market. Ruiqi 6 automatic transmission has four driving modes: standard, ECO (economy), SPORT (sports) and SNOW (snow), and there are control buttons under the air conditioning panel. After the economy mode is started, the vehicle gearbox upshifts actively, and will maintain a lower speed to obtain better fuel economy.

  China heavy duty truck VGV VX7

  In February this year, China Heavy Duty Truck VGV, a new force car company in the domestic pickup truck industry, launched its first pickup VX7, which is unique because of its load-bearing body structure, rich safety and intelligent configuration. VX7 pickup truck adopts 8AT gearbox, which can shift smoothly. The electronic knob shift design can realize the freedom of switching between economic, sports, snow and other multi-scene modes. For this pickup truck which is mainly used in cities, the fuel-saving economic model is very useful.

  General Futian

  General Futian pickup truck is a brand-new pickup truck model of Foton Motor, and the diesel 8AT combination is also in the forefront of the market. General G9 provides ECO mode and SPORT mode. Users can switch between them by pressing buttons, and choose energy-saving or sports driving mode according to their needs, so as to obtain corresponding dynamic response. In ECO mode, the whole car looks lazy, and it is very friendly to the fuel economy of the vehicle at low speed.

  Chang ‘an Kaicheng F70

  Chang ‘an Kaicheng F70 is a representative product of a new brand and model of pickup truck in China. The performance of its automatic transmission model has impressed users deeply. Like many mid-to high-end pickup trucks, Chang ‘an Kaicheng F70 automatic transmission model also has a "three-mode driving mode", namely, standard (NORMAL), ECOnomy (eco) and SPORT. Under the economic mode, Chang ‘an Kaicheng F70 appears to be much more obedient, and fuel saving is its core logic, and on this basis, it achieves the balance between performance and fuel consumption.

  With the rise of oil price, car owners pay more and more attention to fuel-saving driving skills, and the electronic configuration with fuel-saving function has also received more attention, and the ECO economic model has become popular at this time. After the ECO mode is turned on, the fuel consumption can be reduced to a certain extent, but the driving pleasure is indeed discounted accordingly. If card friends don’t want to sacrifice driving pleasure at ordinary times, they can only turn it on when driving on urban roads to realize intelligent fuel saving.

The great wall gun became popular! Known as the benchmark in pickup trucks, it sold 160,000 sets with ZF 8AT.

The Great Wall has developed rapidly in recent years. Haval focuses on the home SUV market, WEY focuses on high-end SUVs, while the first love, big dog, mocha (parameter picture) and other models complement the SUV segmentation field. I’m afraid there is no manufacturer in China who is more obsessed with building SUVs than Great Wall. No wonder the brand has the confidence to claim to be the leader of domestic SUVs. In 2020, the Great Wall sold a total of 1,111,598 cars, an increase of 4.84% over the same period. Faced with the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, enterprises grew against the trend, with operating income reaching 103.283 billion yuan and net profit reaching 5.392 billion yuan, both of which achieved year-on-year growth, especially in 2020, when automobile manufacturers were generally sad.

The three technology brands of Lemon, Tank and Coffee Intelligence were also officially released last year. It can be seen that the Great Wall hopes to cover consumers’ needs in SUV and commercial vehicles more comprehensively. The 2020 Great Wall Cannon is the great wall’s ambitious work in the field of pickup trucks. Although there are already Fengjun series of pearls and jade in the front, the market segment has been tepid due to the policy that pickup trucks are forbidden to enter the city. The launch of this Great Wall Cannon shows the determination of Great Wall to start the pickup truck brand. From January to September in 2020, the sales volume of the Great Wall Gun reached 160,351 units, ranking first in the market segment.

In terms of appearance, the front face of the Great Wall Gun looks round and full, which is in line with the momentum that a pickup truck should have. The quadrilateral air intake grille is magnificent and powerful, and there are large pieces of silver chrome-plated strips wrapped inside and on the edge, which is consistent with the temperament of the whole vehicle. In the configuration of far and near lights and daytime running lights, all the Great Wall guns are made of LED materials, and all the Changan Kaicheng F70 at the same level are halogen lamps. It should be obvious who is more kind. The length, width and height of the new car are (mm)5437/1958/1893, and the wheelbase is 3230mm. The car side lines are relatively smooth, and the surface is more natural. Keyless entry and keyless start in the front row are standard, which is commendable.

The wheel hub specification is 265/65 R18, and the tire comfort performance is good, which is suitable for road driving. The tailgate style is more conventional, but the straight lines are slightly boring. The taillights are also LED light sources, and the effect after lighting at night is quite outstanding. The floor of the container is equipped with container treasure, which can prevent wear and corrosion. The combination of the container frame and the tailgate pneumatic lever allows users to easily put down the tailgate, which is rare in the same class and greatly improves the convenience.

Entering the interior of the Great Wall Gun, it is difficult for you to associate it with a pickup truck, because the interior is no different from a general passenger car, more like an SUV, with a symmetrical layout and a large four-spoke steering wheel. At first glance, it is for male drivers, and both sides are integrated with functional buttons such as multimedia control and cruising. The 9-inch central control LCD screen is embedded, and the addition of 360 panoramic images can significantly improve the convenience of parking. The center console is covered with a large area of soft materials and leather, which feels quite good. The real shot model is red, but personally, it feels more advanced with black and brown.

In the power part, the gun adopts a 2.0T gasoline engine independently developed by Great Wall and code-named GW4C20B, with a maximum power of 190 HP and a peak torque of 360 Nm. Automatic transmission models are matched with 8AT gearbox from ZF, and the stability and ride comfort have passed the test of the market. The front suspension is a double wishbone single suspension, which focuses on comfort. The four-wheel drive system comes from Borgwarner and is also produced by a big factory. It can switch between three driving modes and is equipped with front and rear differential locks. Configuration parts, such as tire pressure display, front seat belt unfastened reminder, body stability system, cruise control, steep slope descent and other functions are standard equipment.

Conclusion: There is no doubt about the hard power of the Great Wall Gun in the pickup truck field, which is why it can become the benchmark product in the domestic pickup truck field. ZF 8AT, Borgwarner four-wheel drive and Great Wall engine are all genuine configurations, and the fully-used interior is also a bright spot, which can not help but make people feel the illusion of family cars. With the adjustment and relaxation of pickup policies in various places, I believe that the sales performance of this car can reach a new high.

Last year, it made a big profit of 16.6 billion yuan, and BYD, the king of volume, was busy harvesting.

This article was originally published by wumiancaijing.

BYD, the king of domestic prices, made a fortune.

In 2022, the company’s revenue and profits rose sharply, including revenue of 424.061 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 96.2%; The net profit attributable to listed companies was 16.622 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 445.86%.

The increase is mainly attributed to the increase in sales of new energy vehicles. Last year, BYD sold 1,863,500 vehicles, making it the world’s top seller of new energy vehicles. This year, Chairman Wang Chuanfu’s goal is to become the largest automobile manufacturer in China.

This means higher sales. In today’s auto market scuffle, BYD continues to attack.

Most car companies "reduce the price and ensure the quantity", while a few protect the price against the price reduction storm. BYD is more of a "price reduction impulse".

In the best mass market,BYD still uses the method of "cost performance", and under the banner of "the same price for oil and electricity", it is crazy to roll up fuel vehicles..

From the champion version of Qin PLUS DM-i 2023 in February to the "increase in allocation and decrease in price" of Han EV champion version and Tang DM-i champion version in March, BYD accelerated to seize the joint venture A-class and B-class markets, which also seemed to indicate that "BYD will accept all the shares below 300,000".

The effect is immediate. In the car sales ranking in February, BYD Qin soared from the 10th place in January to the 1st place in February, with sales increasing by 24.6% year-on-year, while joint venture rivals Sylphy and Xinllavida dropped by 8.5% and 20.4% respectively.

On the other hand, the new forces that are still making huge losses, represented by Wei Xiaoli, focus on the middle and high end, and it is still difficult to reap the dividends of the mass market.

In this accelerated knockout, BYD is ahead again.

Price cuts across the board are all about sales.

After Tesla cut the first knife in the beginning of the year, BYD made moves one after another, and it was not soft at all:

The price of the main sales models has been reduced across the board, covering 100,000-300,000.

The latest is BYD Han EV Champion Edition and Tang DM-i Champion Edition which were listed in March.Both models are "increasing the allocation and reducing the price", and the cost performance is improved, with the price range of 200,000-300,000..

Simple contrast can be seen:

Han EV Champion Edition, the price is 209,800-299,800, and the old jia price is 219,800-290,800; Tang DM-i Champion Edition, the price is 209,800-233,800, and the old model is priced at 209,800-281,800.

BYD’s price reduction is more’ chicken thief’. Unlike other car companies, the existing models follow the price reduction, but new configurations are introduced and new prices are set in the same model.. "An industry insider told ID:wumiancaijing, a researcher in finance and economics.

In terms of color, performance and configuration, Han EV Champion Edition and Tang DM-i Champion Edition have been upgraded.

Among them, the Han EV Champion Edition has added a premium version with a lower price, with a battery life of 506 km and 605 km respectively, and the price is 209,800 yuan and 229,800 yuan respectively.

In addition, the same model with a battery life of 715 kilometers, the price of the Han EV Champion Edition is lowered by 12,000 yuan compared with the 2022 model; The price of the flagship model of the Han EV Champion Edition is also 10,000 yuan cheaper than the old model.

The same technique appeared in the champion version of Qin PLUS DM-i 2023 launched in February, which also improved the configuration compared with the old model, but the average selling price dropped by 16,400 yuan; The price is 99,800-145,800, and the price has dropped to less than 100,000 yuan for the first time.

In addition, in March, BYD Seals and Song PLUS officially announced a discount of several thousand yuan each. In addition, BYD Han DM-i and Han DM-p models can enjoy a cash subsidy of 10,000 yuan before the end of April.

As a result, BYD’s Song, Qin, Han, Tang and Seal were all involved in the price war. The price of the main models in different price ranges has been lowered, and the company’s heart of capturing market share and rushing sales can be learned.

It is rumored in the industry that BYD will challenge the goal of 4 million vehicles this year.Last year, the company sold 1.87 million cars. According to this calculation, to achieve the goal, the sales volume will double..

According to the forecast of China Post Securities, in 2023, BYD’s annual car sales are expected to exceed 2.5 million.

From the sales data, BYD has a strong performance.

According to official information, the 2023 Qin PLUS DM-i Champion Edition received 32,000 orders in 7 days, and the Hantang Double Flagship Champion Edition received 8,196 orders on the same day.

According to the data of the Federation, in February, BYD sold about 177,000 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 103.8%; The market share reached 39.8%, much higher than Tesla, which ranked second.

▲ Sales ranking of new energy brands in February, the picture comes from the Association.

According to the vehicle insurance data tracked by CMB International, from January 1 to March 19, in the mainstream market, BYD has surpassed Volkswagen brand in the same period, becoming the best-selling automobile brand in China.

Is the opponent going to be killed?

In contrast to BYD’s fierce offensive, the life of rivals is not easy.

Qin PLUS DM-i 2023 Champion Edition wants to seize the A-class car market of 100,000-150,000 yuan. This subdivision is mainly joint-venture fuel vehicles, and the representative models include Nissan Sylphy, Volkswagen LaVida and Toyota Corolla.

The Chinese EV Champion Edition is competing with Camry, Accord and other joint-venture B-class cars to seize market share and accelerate the seizure of the fuel vehicle market.

In this round of price war, these two segments are chilly.

According to the China Automobile Industry Association, in the first two months of this year, the traditional fuel A-class vehicles sold a total of 1.266 million vehicles, which was the highest in the oil vehicle market at all levels, but it fell by 25.7% year-on-year; B-class cars sold 549,000 vehicles, down 26.6% year-on-year.

By simply comparing the data in recent years, we can know how fierce BYD is and how much pressure its opponents are under.

BYD’s Qin model,Before 2021, it was not able to squeeze into the top 15 of the car retail list, and entered the list in 2021, ranking 12 th, and jumped to the fourth place in 2022..

In 2021 and 2022, BYD’s sales increased substantially, while Nissan Sylphy, Volkswagen LaVida and Toyota Corolla all declined year-on-year. Last year, the year-on-year decline was over 18%, and Corolla has fallen from the top 3 to the sixth.

▲ Comparison of sales of BYD Qin and Han models with similar models. The data source is the Association, and there is no financial chart.

Although Nissan Sylphy and Volkswagen LaVida are still entrenched in TOP3, after the Qin PLUS DM-i 2023 champion version with a starting price of less than 100,000 came out, the ranking began to have suspense.

In the past February, BYD Qin ranked first, while Sylphy and LaVida fell to third and fifth.

According to Cinda Securities Research Report, BYD Qin PLUS DM-i 2023 Champion Edition is expected to quickly seize the joint venture share of the domestic A-class car market, with an expected monthly contribution of 20,000 vehicles and a steady-state monthly sales of 40,000 vehicles.

BYD Qin’s sales volume last year was 342,000. According to the monthly contribution of the above-mentioned models of 20,000, the annual sales volume can reach 480,000.

Similarly, in the past two years, BYD Han rushed into the top 15 in car retail, ranking fifth last year, ahead of Camry and Accord.

Dongfeng group, which took the lead in "breaking a fracture" in this round of price stations, is a typical representative of the impact.

Dongfeng Group’s products are concentrated in the A-class car and B-class car markets. Last year, the Group’s sales volume dropped by 11.2% year-on-year. Nissan Sylphy and Toyota Corolla, corresponding to the two major joint ventures, Dongfeng Nissan and Dongfeng Honda, the main contributors to sales, all saw their sales drop by over 10% last year.

Besides,The new BYD Han EV is in direct competition with Tesla Model 3 (229,900-329,900 yuan), which has been repeatedly reduced in price, and Tucki P7I (249,900-339,900 yuan), which is also listed soon..

For Xpeng Motors in the trough, Tucki P7i is regarded as "the hope of the whole village", but it is still unknown whether it can shoulder the "explosion mission" of the old P71.

In terms of overall sales volume, in the third week of March, that is, the first week of P7i’s official launch, Xpeng Motors’s overall licensing volume decreased by about 21% compared with the second week.

The other two new car-making forces are great and ideal, and the models focus on the middle and high end. In the mass market that BYD specializes in, there are no products.

Although Weilai has plans to launch the "Alpine" brand covering 200,000-300,000 markets, the first product will not be available until next year at the earliest, and the products with an ideal value of less than 300,000 will not be launched until next year at the earliest.

BYD’s advantage is still great.

According to the data of the Federation, in the first two months of 2022, BYD’s share in the new energy vehicle market was 28.7%, and it increased to over 31% by the end of the year; In the first two months of this year, the share reached 40.8%.

The M5 standard version of Wenjie appeared, with a battery life of 1,455 kilometers and a price of 259,800 yuan.

Beijing News Shell Financial News (Reporter’s promise) On July 2nd, the M5 standard edition of AITO was officially unveiled at the User Experience Day of AITO. According to the on-site information, the endurance of the standard version of Wujie M5 has been upgraded to 1,455 kilometers, the standard version of rear drive is 259,800 yuan, and the standard version of Wujie M5 four-wheel drive is 279,800 yuan.

The model will be delivered in August. At the event site, Wang Yanmin, president of Huawei Terminal BG Intelligent Car Selection Business Department, said that with the blessing of intelligent extended-range technology, the M5 standard version of Wenjie does not need to be recharged for long-distance running, "it can drive all the way from Shanghai to Beijing".

In addition, all the models in the M5 Standard Edition are equipped with all-aluminum chassis, and with the help of Huawei DATS (Dynamic Adaptive Torque System) developed by Huawei, the driving, driving control and reliability are fully balanced.

The standard version of Wujie M5 is equipped with Huawei DriveONE pure electric drive platform. The peak power of the standard version of four-wheel drive reaches 365kW and the peak torque reaches 675 N m. With the front double wishbone and rear multi-link all-aluminum chassis as standard, the acceleration time of zero hundred kilometers is 4.4 seconds.

Looking at the industry layout next year from the central economic work conference and recent macro clues

The communique of the Central Economic Work Conference has been issued, which has important guidance for the choice of industry structure next year, and scientific and technological innovation has now become the most important support direction of the policy; The opportunities brought by stronger government expenditure are also worthy of attention. Judging from the recent macro-variable changes, the Federal Reserve will become loose next year, and the marginal improvement of external demand is a high probability event; Therefore, the layout of "technological innovation+export" and "technological innovation +To G" has become an important clue to the industry layout next year.

Core view

【 Guance on the Market 】Looking at the industry layout next year from the central economic work conference and macro clues.In 2024, the fiscal expenditure is expected to increase. From the perspective of the Central Economic Work Conference, new industrialization, digital economy and artificial intelligence: among them, the policy expression of artificial intelligence has changed, from safe development to "accelerated promotion". Strategic emerging industries focus on bio-manufacturing, commercial aerospace and low-altitude economy; Expand the scope of local government special bonds used as capital (increase support for "three major projects" and "new urbanization"); It is necessary to promote large-scale equipment renewal and trade-in of consumer goods. Stabilize and expand traditional consumption and boost large-scale consumption of new energy vehicles and electronic products. Generally speaking, TMT, durable consumer goods, machinery and equipment, and some start-up chains are expected to become the directions and fields supported by financial expenditure next year. Recently, a series of statements by the Federal Reserve and the fall of the global inflation center have made it possible for 2024 to become a year of loose global money and liquidity. When the US dollar index weakens and global liquidity tends to be loose, the import growth rate of major countries in the world tends to bottom out and turn positive. Recently, China’s export growth rate has turned positive against the background that the actual base is not low, which also reflects the improvement of China’s export demand. From the direction of global demand improvement next year, semiconductors and consumer electronics, industrial metals, household appliances, automobiles and parts are the areas where domestic and foreign demand has improved marginally in the near future and exports are expected to continue to improve next year.

[Re-examination and Vipassana]The factor affecting that global market this week are as follow:(1) The Central Economic Conference was held in Beijing; (2) The Fed releases dove signals; (3) US CPI in November met expectations; (4) The scale of social financing in China increased by 2.45 trillion yuan in November, 455.6 billion yuan more than the same period of last year; (5) The central bank’s net MLF investment in December reached a new high.

【 meso-prosperity 】In November, the auto market continued to be hot, and the cumulative year-on-year decline in newly started housing area narrowed from January to November.In November, the revenue of most IC manufacturing, memory, silicon wafer, packaging, PCB and passive components in Taiwan stocks decreased year-on-year, while the revenue of IC design, lens, some panels and LED manufacturers achieved positive growth year-on-year. In November, the automobile market continued to be hot, and the production and sales of automobiles increased year-on-year. New energy vehicles and automobile exports led the industry to grow. From January to November, the cumulative year-on-year decline in newly started housing area narrowed, and the cumulative year-on-year increase in completed housing area narrowed; The cumulative year-on-year decline in commercial housing sales and commercial housing sales area has expanded.

[Capital, Oligopoly]Net inflow of financing funds and net subscription of ETF.The net outflow of northbound funds this week was 18.58 billion yuan; The total net inflow of financing funds in the first four trading days was 5.71 billion yuan; 2.21 billion shares of Public Offering of Fund were newly established, down 4.04 billion shares from the previous period; ETF net subscription, corresponding to a net inflow of 18.39 billion yuan. In terms of industry preference, public utilities, real estate, automobiles, etc. have a higher net purchase scale of funds in the north; Net purchase of financing funds for computers, food and beverage, non-bank finance, etc.; There are more medical ETF subscriptions, and more financial real estate (excluding brokers) ETFs are redeemed. The scale of major shareholders’ net reduction is reduced, and the scale of reduction is planned to increase.

【 Theme and Wind Direction 】With the release of "White Paper on AI PC Industry (China)", Intel launched a brand-new processor, and the AI PC industry accelerated its landing.On December 7th, at the first AI PC Industry Innovation Forum, Lenovo and IDC released the industry’s first White Paper on AI PC Industry (China), which provided a framework for the accelerated development of AI PC. On December 14th, Intel officially launched the AI PC processor at the "AI Everywhere" event held in new york, and the AI PC industry accelerated.

Viewing policy and discussing the market-Looking at the industry layout next year from the central economic work conference and macro clues

In the strategic outlook for 2024, we believe that with the smooth domestic credit cycle, social financing weakens the profit drive, and different industries enter an era of great differentiation. In 2024, government spending will increase, combined with the improvement of external demand after the end of the global austerity cycle, the domestic economy is expected to recover moderately, global scientific and technological innovation will enter an upward cycle, A-share enterprises will have an upward profit, and the capital will turn to a moderate net inflow. Multi-factor resonance, A-shares are expected to maintain a structural bull trend of upward shock. Structurally, the growth style is relatively dominant, focusing on science and technology, medicine and some cyclical industries with clear industrial trends, large improvement slope of prosperity and good supply and demand pattern of production capacity. At the end of November 2023, we released the report "Turning Point Established, Jedi Counterattacked", arguing that A shares faced ten important positive marginal changes, and the turning point of A shares’ fundamentals, funds and policies was established. At the end of December, 2023, we released the report "Weight Rebound, Growth Across the New Year", arguing that with the convening of the Political Bureau meeting and the Central Economic Work Conference, the adjustment for next year is established, and the measures to stabilize growth are expected to be substantially implemented. The external demand and external liquidity began to improve continuously, and the domestic incremental capital mechanism is constantly emerging. The last N-shaped trend will eventually open after many setbacks.

?Looking at the industry choice next year from the spirit of the Central Economic Work Conference

?Industrial Policy: Focus on Four Main Lines of Leading Modern Industrial System Construction with Scientific and Technological Innovation

It is suggested to pay attention to the four main lines of leading the construction of modern industrial system with scientific and technological innovation.This meeting focused on the "self-reliance through science and technology" proposed by the Politburo meeting and further deployed the industrial policy. On December 10th, we published "Under the current valuation level, how to interpret A after the Politburo meeting? It is suggested that the strategic significance of focusing on "self-reliance and self-improvement through science and technology" has been improved again. Judging from the expression of the draft, there are four main lines of industrial policy:

New industrialization, digital economy and artificial intelligence: among them, the policy expression of artificial intelligence has changed, from safe development to "accelerating promotion".In 2022, the Central Economic Work Conference mentioned "artificial intelligence" for the first time. At the Politburo meeting in April this year, high-level officials focused on artificial intelligence for the first time, mentioning "paying attention to the development of general artificial intelligence", but also mentioning "paying attention to preventing risks". In July, the Politburo meeting once again mentioned "artificial intelligence", continued the idea of safe development, and pointed out "promoting the safe development of artificial intelligence". However, the evolution of the expression of artificial intelligence in this Central Economic Work Conference is to "accelerate the promotion", and the high-level attention to artificial intelligence needs no elaboration.

Strategic emerging industries: bio-manufacturing, commercial aerospace and low-altitude economy.

Future industries: quantum and life sciences

Industrial transformation and upgrading: digital intelligence technology and green technology

picture

?Fiscal policy: the policy will make moderate efforts to support key areas such as scientific and technological innovation, and wait for the start of a new round of fiscal and taxation system reform.

Focus on supporting scientific and technological innovation and manufacturing development, and financial support for "three major projects" and "new urbanization" is expected to increase.After the expression of fiscal policy was expanded from "increasing strength and improving efficiency" to "moderately increasing strength, improving quality and increasing efficiency" at the Politburo meeting in December, this meeting further pointed out the specific direction of increasing strength and increasing efficiency. Specifically, the follow-up will 1) focus on increasing financial support for major national strategic tasks.(Provide more subsidies and increase tax cuts for technological innovation and manufacturing development); 2) Expand the scope of local government special bonds as capital.(Increase support for "three major projects" and "new urbanization").

Plan a new round of fiscal and taxation system reform.After a lapse of three years, the Central Economic Work Conference once again mentioned "the reform of fiscal and taxation system", and the last time it mentioned "the reform of fiscal and taxation system" was at the Central Economic Work Conference in 2019. In the future, the further thinking and deployment of the fiscal and taxation system reform are expected to be further elaborated at the important meeting to be held next year. The focus of the reform may continue to "establish a central and local financial relationship with clear rights and responsibilities, coordinated financial resources and regional balance" mentioned in the 14 th Five-Year Plan.Mainly focus on the financial relationship between the central and local governments.

picture

?The policy of expanding domestic demand: renewal becomes the starting point of investment, paying attention to the trade-in of consumer goods.

Update as the main starting point of investment.The meeting continued the tone of the Politburo meeting, affirmed that insufficient demand is still the main contradiction restricting China’s economic development, and further expounded how to form a "virtuous circle of mutual promotion of consumption and investment."

In terms of consumption, in addition to increasing consumer supply,Cultivate new consumption(digital consumption, green consumption, healthy consumption, actively cultivating smart homes, recreational tourism, sports events, domestic products "trendy products", etc.),Stabilize traditional consumption(Boosting the mass consumption of new energy vehicles and electronic products), the meeting further affirmed the need to "increase the income of urban and rural residents and expand the scale of middle-income groups", andTrade-in of consumer goods.

On the investment side, the meeting made it clear that updating should be the key breakthrough point.It is proposed to "promote large-scale equipment renewal and trade-in of consumer goods". China once mentioned equipment renewal in the central economic work conferences in 2015, 2018, 2019 and 2020, but only in the conferences in 2018 and 2020, equipment renewal was regarded as the starting point of investment.Among them, although the meeting in 2018 will give priority to supporting technological transformation and equipment renewal in the manufacturing industry, it will focus on the new infrastructure, and the new infrastructure has developed rapidly since then. This meeting focused on the equipment renewal in detail, and put forward the idea of "improving technology, energy consumption, emission and other standards as the traction" and used the word "large-scale", which showed a strong policy appeal to promote equipment renewal.In the future, or referring to the policy context of new infrastructure, there will be more policy documents to further define the standards and measures for equipment renewal.From the perspective of specific policy expectations, the special refinancing of equipment renovation and other structural support tools that were introduced in 2022 are expected to be introduced.

picture

picture

?Real estate policy: continuing the previous policy context

This meeting continues the previous policy context.: 1) Continue to "actively and steadily resolve real estate risks"; 2) Continue to "protect the main body" and "meet the reasonable financing needs of real estate enterprises with different ownership equally"; 3) Continue to "accelerate the construction of affordable housing, the construction of public infrastructure for both ordinary and emergency use, and the renovation of villages in cities".However, it is worth noting that under the background that the Politburo meeting in December and this Central Economic Work Conference all mentioned "first set up and then break", the intensity of various real estate policies is expected to increase.

picture

Based on the policy adjustment and various economic work arrangements of the Central Economic Work Conference in 2023, we believe that the investment guidelines of the Central Economic Work Conference for A shares next year mainly include the following aspects:

(1) From a macro perspective, the strength of policy support for various economic work is expected to exceed market expectations.Specifically, the fiscal policy orientation is positive, and deficit ratio will arrange or keep it above 3%, but it will not be flooded.; Monetary policy is flexible, moderate, accurate and effective. It is mentioned for the first time that "money supply" matches "expected target of price level", and there may be room for further interest rate reduction in the first quarter of next year.Liquidity is expected to be further relaxed, bringing room for valuation improvement for A shares;

(2) From the perspective of industry, focus on the industrial policy force brought by the new wave of scientific and technological revolution, and grasp the four main lines of science and technology and the new quality productivity.In Report to the 20th CPC National Congress, "self-reliance through science and technology" was emphasized. This meeting put "leading the construction of modern industrial system with scientific and technological innovation" at the top of all key work arrangements in the coming year, and the importance of self-reliance and self-reliance in science and technology is beyond doubt. This meeting highlightedFour main lines: 1) new industrialization, digital economy and artificial intelligence; 2) Strategic emerging industries: bio-manufacturing, commercial aerospace and low-altitude economy; 3) Future industries: quantum and life sciences; 4) Industrial transformation and upgrading: digital intelligence technology and green technology, and re-emphasized the "new quality productivity" first mentioned by the Supreme Leader General Secretary in September this year.

(3) From the perspective of industry, focus on the investment with equipment renewal as the main starting point, and the consumption policy of trade-in of consumer goods/new consumption/bulk consumption.This meeting not only continued the tone of the previous Politburo meeting on the mutual promotion of consumption and investment, but also proposed to focus on equipment renewal in investment.And for the first time, it focuses on the main direction of equipment renewal, and even uses "large-scale" to imply a strong policy appeal of taking equipment renewal as the investment grasper.Subsequent supporting policies, such as special refinancing for equipment renewal, are expected to be further introduced.The growth rate of manufacturing investment is expected to remain high next year, and a new round of equipment renewal cycle is expected to come under the impetus of policies.In addition, on the consumer side, the policy mainly focuses on cultivation.New consumption (smart home, entertainment consumption, domestic products) and stable traditional consumption (new energy vehicles, consumer electronics) are recommended to continue to pay attention. In addition, the trade-in of consumer goods and the silver-haired economy are also expected to become the main scenes of consumption.

(4) From the perspective of industry, it is suggested to pay attention to the silver-haired economy, new urbanization/urban renewal, which has the potential to evolve into an important main line in the future.Combing all previous central economic work conferences since 2013,This meeting put forward the concept of "silver hair economy" for the first time.However, the specific policy deployment needs to be further launched, and it is expected to become the main line of market interpretation in the future. In addition, this meeting once again mentionedNew urbanization and urban renewalAlthough they are not placed in the paragraph of expanding domestic demand and promoting investment in length, it does not rule out that they will become the main focus of investment, and it is recommended to pay attention to the follow-up policy direction.

Looking back on the past five years, the Central Economic Work Conference has great guidance for the performance of the A-share industry in the coming year. Consumption in 2019 (food and beverage, household appliances, etc.); Electric innovation in 2020 and 2021 (electric equipment and automobiles), infrastructure (transportation and construction) in 2022, and artificial intelligence (communication, media, computer and electronics) this year.To sum up, after summarizing the central economic work, we suggest focusing on: 1) main lines of science and technology (four main lines and new quality productivity), 2) equipment renewal, 3) trade-in of consumer goods/new consumption/bulk consumption, 4) silver-haired economy, and 5) new urbanization/urban renewal.

?Two clues of recent macro-changes

?Clue 1: fiscal expenditure is expected to increase in 2024, and the direction of government expenditure is worthy of attention.

Judging from the spirit of the Central Economic Work Conference, the expression of fiscal policy has been expanded from "enhancing efficiency through efforts" to "moderately enhancing efforts, improving quality and increasing efficiency". In 2024, with the local government debt problem beginning to resolve and economic growth facing new pressure, government expenditure has started to accelerate obviously in the near future. It is expected that the expenditure intensity will be maintained in 2024, and finding the direction of government expenditure is an important idea for industry selection in 2024.

1) Focus on increasing financial support for major national strategic tasks (providing more subsidies and increasing tax reduction for scientific and technological innovation and manufacturing development); 2) Expand the scope of local government special bonds as capital (increase support for "three major projects" and "new urbanization"); 3) We should take the improvement of technology, energy consumption, emission and other standards as the traction to promote large-scale equipment renewal and trade-in of consumer goods. 4) Stabilize and expand traditional consumption, and boost mass consumption of new energy vehicles and electronic products.

The industries involved in the above policies include household appliances, household appliances, new energy vehicles, electronic products and other durable goods; The construction chain includes building materials and industrial metals; TMT in the field of science and technology.

picture

?Clue 2: The global monetary policy environment is becoming loose, the global import growth rate is expected to bottom out and China’s external demand will improve.

In 2023, under the global monetary and liquidity tightening environment, the global import growth rate showed a significant decline. China’s exports are also under certain pressure, with a negative growth rate in many months throughout the year. Recently, a series of statements by the Federal Reserve and the fall of the global inflation center have made it possible for 2024 to become a year of loose global money and liquidity. Recently, the US dollar index has also weakened significantly, reflecting the market expectation. In the past historical samples, when the US dollar index weakened and global liquidity became loose, the import growth rate of major countries in the world often bottomed out and turned positive.

picture

Judging from the recent import amount and growth rate of representative countries in the world, the import amount of representative countries in the world improved slightly in November, and the growth rate rebounded slightly.

picture

China’s exports turned positive in November. In fact, the base in November last year was not low, indicating that China’s exports began to improve; At the same time, the export growth rate of export-oriented countries represented by India, Thailand, Vietnam and South Korea has also turned positive since October.

picture

On the whole, finding the direction of improving global demand and marginal improvement of China’s export growth rate has become an important idea for choosing industries in the first half of 2024.

Semiconductors and consumer electronics

Semiconductors and consumer electronics are typical global demand industries. Judging from the growth rate of global semiconductor sales in October, global semiconductor sales are close to turning positive. Due to the low base this year, the current innovation trend represented by artificial intelligence is in the ascendant. It is a high probability that the global semiconductor growth rate will turn into double-digit positive growth in 2024.

picture

Consumer electronics, represented by mobile phones, has also begun to pick up in the near future, and global smartphone shipments have nearly turned positive year-on-year in the third quarter. With the progress of artificial intelligence technology and the marginal improvement of external demand, it is expected that the global shipments of smartphones and other consumer electronics will turn positive in 2024.

picture

As China is the largest mobile phone manufacturer, in the context of marginal improvement in demand for smart phones in China and the world. At present, the growth rate of mobile phone production in China has returned to a higher level.

picture

Due to the obvious increase in the demand for computing power in the current artificial intelligence model, the hardware innovation trend based on the artificial intelligence model is expected to come next year. For example, AI mobile phone AI PC and other innovative hardware based on artificial intelligence are expected to launch and superimpose XR equipment represented by MR next year. It is also expected to start to increase shipments, and the semiconductor and consumer electronics fields are very in line with the comprehensive logic of domestic policy support, technological innovation trend and external demand improvement.

Industrial metal

Recently, with the slight improvement of global demand, the US dollar index has weakened, global commodity prices have steadily rebounded, and domestic commodity prices have also begun to stabilize and rebound. Domestic prices of copper and aluminum are positive in the fourth quarter compared with the same period of last year, and the performance is expected to continue to improve.

picture

Due to the supply pressure, the stocks of industrial metals such as zinc and aluminum are low at present. If the global demand starts to improve marginally, the upward elasticity of prices may be greater.

picture

?Automobile and parts

At present, the global automobile shows the general trend of electrification and intelligence. No matter whether it is electrification or intelligence, the advantages of China automobile enterprises in the world are gradually expanding. China’s share of new energy vehicles in the world continues to increase, driving China’s automobile export growth to maintain a high level.

On the domestic side, as the penetration rate of intelligent driving above L3 is promoted by Huawei cars, it is expected that next year will be the first year when the penetration rate of intelligent driving above L3 will exceed 5%. Driven by the general trend of intelligence, cars are also expected to maintain a high growth rate in domestic sales next year, and if global demand is superimposed to improve the prosperity of car sales and production next year, it is expected to remain at a high level. Judging from the spirit of the Central Economic Work Conference, the support for new energy vehicles will continue to increase next year.

picture

home appliances

Recently, with the marginal improvement of external demand, the growth rate of export value of household appliances continues to rebound. If the world enters the interest rate cut cycle next year and the global real estate market enters the recovery stage, the export demand of household appliances is expected to remain at a high level next year. From the perspective of domestic sales.

?Summary: Look at the industry layout next year from the Central Economic Work Conference and recent macro clues.

The communique of the Central Economic Work Conference has been issued, which has important guidance for the choice of industry structure next year, and scientific and technological innovation has now become the most important support direction of the policy; The opportunities brought by stronger government expenditure are also worthy of attention. Judging from the recent macro-variable changes, the Federal Reserve will become loose next year, and the marginal improvement of external demand is a high probability event; Therefore, the layout of "technological innovation+export" and "technological innovation +To G" has become an important clue to the industry layout next year.

In 2024, the fiscal expenditure is expected to increase. From the perspective of the Central Economic Work Conference, new industrialization, digital economy and artificial intelligence: among them, the policy expression of artificial intelligence has changed, from safe development to "accelerated promotion". Strategic emerging industries focus on bio-manufacturing, commercial aerospace and low-altitude economy.; Expand the scope of local government special bonds used as capital (increase support for "three major projects" and "new urbanization"); It is necessary to take the improvement of technology, energy consumption and emission standards as the traction to promote large-scale equipment renewal and trade-in of consumer goods. Stabilize and expand traditional consumption and boost large-scale consumption of new energy vehicles and electronic products. Generally speaking,TMT, durable consumer goods, machinery and equipment, and some start-up chains.It is expected to become the direction and field supported by financial expenditure next year.

Recently, a series of statements by the Federal Reserve and the fall of the global inflation center have made it possible for 2024 to become a year of loose global money and liquidity. Recently, the US dollar index has also weakened significantly, reflecting the market expectation. In the past historical samples, when the US dollar index weakened and global liquidity became loose, the import growth rate of major countries in the world often bottomed out and turned positive. Recently, China’s export growth rate has turned positive against the background that the actual base is not low, which also reflects the improvement of China’s export demand. Judging from the improvement of global demand next year,Semiconductor and consumer electronics, industrial metals, household appliances, automobiles and parts.It is an area where marginal improvement is needed at home and abroad in the near future and exports are expected to continue to improve next year.

With the rapid development of large-scale models, it is an inevitable trend to integrate personal large-scale models with terminals.Since 2022, the generative AI technology based on large models has made a major breakthrough and developed rapidly, the performance of large models has been continuously improved, and multi-modal evolution has been continuously promoted. GPT-4 and Gemini have been formed abroad, and major domestic technology companies have also released their own large model products, with a significant trend of self-control. On the application side, it is difficult for the public big model to meet the personalized needs of thousands of people, and the computing load of the big model will inevitably sink from the cloud to the terminal, forming a personal big model that can better meet the personalized needs and deeply integrate with the mobile terminal, which is the inevitable trend of the development of the big model.

Compared with other devices, PC-side carrying personal big model has unique advantages.First of all, PC has full-mode human-computer interaction conditions. In addition to direct touch, voice and gesture interaction, traditional keyboard-mouse interaction and digital pen interaction provide users with more accurate and professional operation means, which enables large models to handle highly complex user tasks better and more accurately. Secondly, PC is a personal general-purpose device that carries the most scenes. Compared with other terminals such as mobile phones, PC has the most extensive application scenarios, and can undertake many tasks such as teleconferencing, graphic design, programming and multimedia production. It also has more functions and advanced options in professional tools, which can provide a richer working environment for large models. Thirdly, PC is by far the strongest personal computing platform, which has a balance between strong computing power and portability, and can realize the collaborative operation of heterogeneous computing power of CPU+NPU+GPU, and can deploy more complex and powerful AI models. Finally, PC is the most trusted and secure terminal with the largest storage capacity. In the process of interacting with AI, a large amount of personal data will be generated, which requires higher capacity and security. The PC has a large-capacity local secure storage, which puts forward a solution to this problem.

"online celebrity" quinoa under food security: It has the potential to become a new staple food.

  In recent years, quinoa has been labeled as "slimming" and "healthy" and has become a popular food in online celebrity. In fact, not only the nutritional value, but also the economic and ecological benefits of quinoa are of extraordinary strategic significance in the long run.

  Quinoa, which originated in the Andes of South America, has been settled in China for 35 years. Because of its excellent characteristics, many professionals think it has the "potential" to become a new staple food in the future.

  Kambuzhaxi, a professor at Tibet Agriculture and Animal Husbandry College, has been engaged in plateau quinoa research for more than 30 years. He told the First Financial Reporter that quinoa is a "golden grain" specially recommended by FAO, and the only single plant can meet all the basic nutritional needs of the human body. It will play an important role in eliminating hunger, malnutrition and poverty. In addition, it has natural stress tolerance (saline-alkali resistance, drought resistance, low temperature resistance and barren resistance), and can be planted on a large number of marginal lands to alleviate the pressure of ecological damage caused by grain production increase. These advantages are enough to make policy makers look at it differently.

  From introduction experiment to industrial planting

  In 1985, Bolivia, located in South America, gave quinoa to China as a national gift. Therefore, China became one of the first countries in the world to introduce and grow quinoa from South America, and the first area in China was Xizang Autonomous Region.

  Gombuzhaxi said that quinoa originated from Lake Titicaca in the Andes of South America, which is located on the Keao Plateau, with an altitude of more than 3,800 meters, close to that of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The two places belong to the plateau climate, and the geographical environment is almost the same, with little rain and cool, which is suitable for the introduction of quinoa. "There are many barren soils in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and quinoa is an ideal crop that can be widely promoted."

  In 1987, Kampot Tashi came into contact with quinoa seeds and began to try to introduce quinoa. Subsequently, a small-scale trial planting in Tibet was successful.

  Before the industrial planting of quinoa, it was a silence for more than 10 years. Gombuzhaxi explained: "After the successful trial planting in Tibet, limited transportation conditions, low consumption level and insufficient understanding of quinoa are not enough to support the industrialization of quinoa."

  However, during this period, Wu Xiangyun, whose WeChat name is "King of Quinoa" and who is called "Uncle Chenopodium", chose to try planting quinoa many times, and finally succeeded in breeding in Hengshan Mountain in Shanxi Province in 2010. Subsequently, he tried to plant quinoa in the village of Shupo Township, Jingle County, Shanxi Province, and achieved good results. Wu Xiangyun has thus become "the first person to plant quinoa industrially in China".

  Wu Xiangyun said that his major and industry are all related to agriculture. In November 1993, he began to pay attention to quinoa under the influence of an article on the all-round research of quinoa by NASA. Later, he discovered that the world’s top 500 food companies, such as Nestle and General Mills, were all involved in the research and production of quinoa products. After many international visits and interviews with many quinoa experts, Wu Xiangyun strengthened his confidence in promoting the market-oriented cultivation of quinoa in China and established Shanxi Jiaqi Agricultural Science and Technology Co., Ltd.

  Wu Xiangyun told the First Financial Reporter that the most crucial step in the industrialization of quinoa is to cultivate suitable varieties. From 2008 to 2011, their work was mainly carried out around selection, breeding and exploring planting techniques. After the successful trial planting, we began to try large-scale planting.

  Due to the pioneering of quinoa industrial planting and the strong support and promotion of Jingle county government, in 2013, the total planting scale of quinoa in Jingle county was expanded to 10,000 mu. In the ranking of non-native planting area in the world, Jingle county ranked second only to the United States and became the third largest quinoa planting base in the world. In August of the same year, Jingle County was awarded the title of "Hometown of Quinoa in China" by the Flower and Food Professional Committee of China Food Industry Association.

  More and more attention is paid to quinoa internationally, and it is regarded as "super food". In December 2011, the United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution to designate 2013 as the "International Year of Quinoa", aiming to draw the world’s attention to the role that the biodiversity and nutritional value of quinoa can play in providing food and nutritional security and eradicating poverty.

  The development momentum of quinoa industry is getting stronger and stronger.

  After the "International Year of Quinoa", quinoa has also attracted the attention of mainstream international scientists, and the basic biological research on quinoa has really begun. In China, the fans of quinoa have gradually increased, and the industrial development momentum has become more and more fierce. More than 20 provinces in China have carried out quinoa experiments and planting.

  According to the statistics of Quinoa Professional Committee of China Crop Society, since 2013, the planting area of quinoa in China has increased at an average annual rate of more than 30%. At present, the total planting area of quinoa in China is about 200 thousand mu.

  During the trial planting in these years, quinoa has also successfully moved from high altitude to plain. Due to the great improvement of growth conditions, some quinoa varieties with active growth can realize double cropping and continuous cropping in one year.

  From March to November, 2019, Shanghai Plant Stress Biology Research Center of China Academy of Sciences carried out the introduction, demonstration planting and variety selection of quinoa in Kashgar, Xinjiang, which successfully realized the planting of quinoa in the arid Gobi desert at low altitude for the first time, and also realized it twice a year in China for the first time. Through spring sowing and summer sowing, the yield per mu was nearly 1,000 kg.

  At the same time, the market demand of quinoa is strong, which also greatly promotes the production and processing of quinoa. In July 2015, the former State Grain Bureau issued the first quality standard of quinoa rice in China, LS/T 3245-2015, which can provide quality control basis for the production of quinoa rice and help to promote the orderly development of processed ingredients of quinoa rice.

  In addition, the application prospect of quinoa in China is not only edible, but also used for industrial development, such as lipstick, shampoo, body lotion and other cosmetic raw materials. The saponins in quinoa have a wide range of pharmacological and biological activities, which can be used as natural sweeteners, flavor enhancers and antioxidants, and will also play an important role in agriculture, medicine and other fields.

  In order to meet the domestic market demand, China has also liberalized the import of quinoa from the country of origin. On July 16, 2019, the General Administration of Customs issued Announcement No.120 of 2019 — — Announcement on Inspection and Quarantine Requirements for Imported Quinoa from Peru. Since the date of the announcement, it is allowed to import quinoa grains (including peeled quinoa seeds, quinoa powder and quinoa cereal) grown and processed in Peru.

  Significance of quinoa in the context of food security

  In recent years, quinoa has been highly praised for its "health" and "weight loss". Under the impact of new media propaganda, Ren Changyan, general manager of Shanghai Minlong Industrial Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Minlong Industry") also came into contact with quinoa.

  Although it is only in the last two or three years, Ren Changyan found that this industry has developed rapidly. Based on her keen intuition in the food processing industry for many years, she believes that there should be great room for future development of quinoa. As Minlong Industry actively responded to the call for aid to Xinjiang in 2010 and participated in Shanghai’s counterpart aid to Xinjiang, it was the first batch of Shanghai enterprises to help Xinjiang settle in Kashgar. When the quinoa project was demonstrated and planted in Kashgar in 2019, Ren Changyan became interested.

  She said that as a Shanghai enterprise that has invested in Kashgar for 10 years, Minlong Industry has the ability and is willing to do a good job in deep processing of quinoa. At present, enterprises are developing new quinoa products such as light meal powder and energy bar.

  The motivation for food enterprises to actively participate in the field of deep processing stems from the characteristics of quinoa itself and the market value of quinoa products. Quinoa seed can meet the basic nutritional needs of adults, and has a long-term and significant effect on improving the nutritional and health status of the population in poor areas. It is also a good food source for the elderly, diabetics, fitness and gluten-sensitive people. However, because the global output of quinoa is far from meeting the demand, the price of raw grain of quinoa is more than 10 times that of wheat in the current international market.

  The selection of the above-mentioned quinoa project for trial planting in Kashgar is of great strategic significance for ensuring national food security and ecological security.

  Zhu Jiankang, director of Shanghai Plant Stress Biology Research Center of China Academy of Sciences and academician of American Academy of Sciences, said in an exclusive interview with CBN reporter that quinoa contains high protein and balanced nutrition, which is comparable to meat, eggs and milk in terms of protein content and quality. If people can ingest more protein from quinoa crops, the demand for meat, eggs and milk will be reduced accordingly, thus slowing down the import of foreign soybeans and soybean meal, and the path of transforming protein through aquaculture is obviously inefficient. From the point of view of providing protein, although quinoa is only a special minority crop at present, the domestic planting area is less than 200,000 mu, but from the perspective of its development momentum, it still has great potential.

  He said: "I believe quinoa will become a new staple food variety in the future, but at present, there is still a long way to go." Moreover, for the two kinds of rations, wheat and rice, the people have formed corresponding eating habits for many years and have certain dependence. Quinoa will not completely replace a staple food, but only partially. "

  Zhang Hui, a part-time researcher at the Shanghai Plant Stress Biology Research Center of China Academy of Sciences, told the First Financial Reporter that quinoa has remarkable stress tolerance, so it can cultivate suitable varieties in saline-alkali land and arid and semi-arid areas, and then use a lot of marginal land for planting, which is equivalent to increasing the available arable land in disguise. At the same time, planting Chenopodium album saves a lot of fresh water resources, which is very rare for arid areas in northwest China. From the point of view of developing animal husbandry, the whole plant of quinoa has high protein content and good quality. As dry feed or silage, the effect of promoting milk production of cattle and sheep is not lower than other high-quality forage. If quinoa can be successfully introduced, its significance to food security will be limitless.

  At present, there are still bottlenecks in the industrialization of quinoa in China. For example, due to low output, prices remain high; In the process of planting, there is no herbicide available, so manual weeding is needed, which greatly increases the planting cost, and there is also a seasonal shortage of manpower. The supporting machinery needed for planting has not been well solved.

  But Wu Xiangyun also said that breeding is actually the fundamental way to solve these problems, especially resistance, yield and herbicide tolerance, which can be solved through breeding.

LI, the best in history!

On the evening of November 9, LI announced its financial report for the third quarter of 2023. The company’s quarterly delivery volume and financial data both hit record highs, with operating profit and net profit of 2.34 billion yuan and 2.81 billion yuan respectively in the same period, achieving four consecutive quarters of profit. As of September 30th, the accumulated revenue of LI in 2023 was 82.12 billion yuan. According to the current development trend, it is within sight to achieve the goal of 100 billion revenue by the end of the year.

For the next development, Li Xiang, Chairman and CEO of LI, said at the performance exchange meeting in the third quarter of 2023 that night that in October, Changzhou manufacturing base in LI completed the capacity upgrade, preparing for the fourth quarter production climbing. In the aspect of supply chain management, the bottleneck of spare parts supply is constantly broken by optimizing management strategy, upgrading management process and strengthening efficient cooperation with suppliers.

Strong market demand boosted LI’s revenue growth. In the third quarter of this year, the company achieved revenue of 34.68 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 271.2%. In the same period, the company’s operating profit and net profit were 2.34 billion yuan and 2.81 billion yuan respectively. The above quarterly delivery volume and financial data are all the best in history.

It is worth noting that LI’s cost has been continuously reduced, with a gross profit margin of 22.0% in the third quarter. In addition, the free cash flow is 13.22 billion yuan. At the end of the third quarter, the company’s cash reserve reached 88.52 billion yuan, which also effectively guaranteed LI’s long-term investment in R&D and new product layout.

In terms of R&D, LI’s R&D expenditure in the third quarter was 2.82 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 56.1%. LI said that the increase in R&D expenses will further expand the scale of R&D talents, expand the product matrix and enhance the R&D innovation capability. Based on the "dual-energy strategy", the company promotes the technical layout of extended-range electric, high-voltage pure electric, intelligent driving, intelligent space, system research and development and forward-looking research and development.

It is expected to maintain a high growth rate.

LI also looked forward to the fourth quarter of 2023 in the financial report. The company’s delivery volume in the fourth quarter is expected to reach 125,000 to 128,000, an increase of 169.9% to 176.3% year-on-year; Revenue in the fourth quarter is expected to reach 38.46 billion yuan to 39.38 billion yuan, up 117.9% year-on-year to 123.1%. On this basis, it is a high probability that LI’s revenue will exceed 100 billion yuan this year.

A few days ago, LI disclosed the delivery data in October this year, showing that the company delivered 40,422 new cars that month, up 302.1% year-on-year, and the monthly delivery exceeded 40,000 vehicles for the first time.

"LI ushered in the moment of delivering more than 40,000 vehicles per month, marking the further improvement of the company’s organizational capabilities such as manufacturing, sales and service." Li Xiang said, "This is also the first time that China’s new car companies have reached this scale, and LI has entered a new cycle of accelerating large-scale development."

Li Xiang introduced that in the fourth quarter, LI will continue to accelerate the expansion of stores, aiming to have more than 400 stores covering 140 cities nationwide by the end of this year, so as to increase its market share in the new energy vehicle market in China.

Regarding the progress of the ideal MEGA concerned by the market, Li Xiang said at the performance exchange meeting that the ideal MEGA will be officially released in December this year, and the car will be exhibited in the store in January 2024 and delivered by users in February. "All our pure electric products must have" three important breakthroughs ",namely, the breakthrough in charging, the breakthrough in space and the breakthrough in modeling. All pure electric products in LI will adhere to these three important principles." Li wants to say.

Based on this, the ideal MEGA integrates the latest technological achievements of LI in the field of pure electricity, and carries out research and development and manufacturing according to the above-mentioned "three important breakthroughs".

Li Xiang also said that the company will continue to expand the construction of 5C high-voltage super charging network. Up to now, LI has built and operated 130 ideal super charging stations along the national expressway. By the end of this year, LI will have completed the construction of 300 high-speed super charging stations, covering the four economic belts of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta, Greater Bay Area and Sichuan-Chongqing.

"In the future, we will speed up the laying of the ideal overcharge network, encrypt and cover the national high-speed network while promoting the layout of urban overcharge stations, and enhance the user’s full-scene recharge experience." Li wants to say.
