Topic: "Perception of China" in Israel.

the flag of israel

　　[National Flag] is rectangular, and the ratio of length to width is about 3: 2. The flag is white, with a blue broadband above and below. Blue and white come from the color of the shawl used by Jews in prayer. In the middle of the white flag is a blue six-pointed star, which is the star of King David of ancient Israel and symbolizes the power of the country.

　　[National emblem] is a rectangular coat of arms. There is a seven-branched candlestick on the blue shield. According to records, this candlestick was used to light the altar in the Jerusalem Temple. The candlestick is decorated with olive branches on both sides, symbolizing the Jewish desire for peace. Under the candlestick is written "State of Israel" in Hebrew.

　　[National Anthem] "Song of Hope"

　　[Independence Day] About May of Gregorian calendar. Israel declared its independence on May 14th, 1948. Although the Gregorian calendar is adopted in daily life in Israel, the Jewish calendar is adopted in national festivals. Therefore, the annual independence day is not necessarily May 14th of the Gregorian calendar.

National emblem of Israel

　　[Physical Geography] According to the 1947 United Nations resolution on the partition of Palestine, the area of the State of Israel is 15,200 square kilometers. Located in the west of Asia, bordering Lebanon in the north, Syria in the northeast, Jordan in the east, the Mediterranean Sea in the west and the Gulf of Aqaba in the south, it is the junction of Asia, Africa and Europe. The coastal area is a long and narrow plain, and there are mountains and plateaus in the east. It has a Mediterranean climate.

　　[Population] 6.259 million (2000 statistics, including Jewish residents in the West Bank, Gaza Strip and East Jerusalem), of which Jews account for 76.7%, Arabs, Druze and others account for 23.3%. Hebrew is the national language, and Arabic is the official language, and English is commonly used. Judaism is the state religion. About 85% of the residents believe in Judaism and 13% believe in Islam.

　　[Capital] It was in Tel Aviv when the People’s Republic of China was founded, and moved to Jerusalem in 1950, which was not universally recognized. On July 30, 1980, the Knesset passed a bill declaring Jerusalem as the "eternal and indivisible capital" of Israel, but its seat of government is still in Tel Aviv. "[The status and ownership of Jerusalem has been disputed between Arab countries and Israel, and Arab countries demand that" Israel withdraw from all Arab territories it has occupied since 1967, including Arab Jerusalem (referring to East Jerusalem) ". Most countries that have diplomatic relations with Israel still have their embassies in Tel Aviv]. The population of Jerusalem is about 634,000 (2000).

　　On June 12th, the European Commission released the preliminary disclosure on the countervailing investigation of electric vehicles in China, and proposed to levy temporary countervailing duties on electric vehicles imported from China.

　　Master Tan learned that after the European Union released the preliminary ruling disclosure, the China industry was very dissatisfied and strongly appealed to relevant departments to take countermeasures against Europe.

　　According to industry sources,The Chinese side is advancing the relevant procedures to increase the provisional tariff on the import of large-displacement gasoline vehicles.

　　In addition, at the beginning of this year, the Ministry of Commerce issued an announcement to initiate an anti-dumping investigation on imported brandy originating in the European Union.According to industry experts familiar with the brandy anti-dumping investigation, the preliminary ruling result of the case is expected to be announced before the end of August.

　　In response to the position of the European side, the relevant officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Commerce said that China will pay close attention to the follow-up progress of the European side and will resolutely take all necessary measures to firmly defend the legitimate rights and interests of China enterprises.

　　How to understand China’s strong opposition and countermeasures? Master Tan found the Chinese personnel involved in the investigation, as well as lawyers and economic and trade experts, and chatted with them.

　　The "resolute opposition" of China industry has clear and sufficient legal basis. Looking back at this so-called investigation in the European side, from the initiation of the investigation, to the middle of the investigation process, and then to the preliminary disclosure, each link revealed a word:

　　unreasonable.

　　Let’s talk about it one link at a time.

　　Let’s start with initiation. This countervailing investigation was initiated by the European Commission, not by the relevant industries in the EU.

　　What is the difference between related industries and the European Commission?

　　China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Mechanical and Electrical Products is the industry defense party of this investigation, and Sun Xiaohong, as the secretary general of the professional committee of automobile internationalization of this chamber of commerce, is very familiar with this investigation. He said that countervailing investigations are basically initiated by industry applications. This is because only the industry will directly feel that a country’s competitive products may pose a threat to its own industry, and from the perspective of worrying about the damage to its own interests, it will put forward the investigation demand and launch a survey with substantial support.

　　What is the reason for the initiation of the European Commission? It is the European Commission’s subjective judgment that China’s electric vehicle industry is "threatening".

　　Sun Xiaohong said that in history, there was almost no precedent for the European Commission to initiate countervailing investigations.

　　In the subsequent investigation process, there are also many unreasonable places.

　　China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Mechanical and Electrical Products used three words to describe this survey — —lackFairness, objectivity and transparency.

　　First of all, it is unfair sampling.

　　The three companies selected by the European Commission are SAIC, Geely and BYD. The European Commission did not give a convincing reason why these three companies were selected.

　　Hao Jie, a researcher at the Institute of Foreign Economic Research of the National Development and Reform Commission, said,In order to achieve the preset goal, construct and exaggerate the so-called "subsidy" project, the European Commission ignored the WTO rules, abandoned the maximum representative standard of export volume, excluded European and American enterprises with the highest export volume from the sampling, and only selected local enterprises in China. The sampling standard was irregular, the process was opaque and the result was unfair.

　　According to relevant statistics, the share of China brands in the European electric vehicle market is about 8%, and the proportion of these three companies will only be less.

　　We don’t know where the "threat" in the mouth of the European Commission comes from.

　　In the face of such a "threat", the European Commission requested the survey information provided by China electric vehicle enterprises,Extremely harsh.

　　More than 200 affiliated companies of the three sampled China enterprises were asked to submit questionnaires, and more than 100 supplementary questionnaires were answered, and the on-the-spot verification was conducted with the European Commission for several months. Both the time and the sample size of the survey are rare in Sun Xiaohong’s impression.

　　According to the preliminary findings released, the tax rates levied by the European Commission on three China car companies ranged from 17.4% to 38.1%, and the gap was large, but the European Commission has not yet given an explanation.

　　Sun Xiaohong told Lord Tan,China enterprises report that the European side is investigating.Ask them to provide the formula of the battery.

　　According to his understanding, many of the information that the European Commission requires China enterprises to provide areInformation or data involving enterprise privacy, business secrets, core technologies, etc..

　　These are the core competitiveness of China’s electric vehicle industry. The European Union’s electric vehicles can’t compete with China’s electric vehicles. Does the European Commission want to grab them?

　　Sun Xiaohong said that what is even more opaque and unreasonable is that the EU also uses the data collected by itself to supplement the data that they can’t get. Whether these data are objective and true is not their consideration.

　　Throughout the investigation, the European Commission never made a substantive response to the Chinese defense.

　　Sun Xiaohong said that during several rounds of investigations and hearings, China’s position and concerns have never been considered by the European Commission. It seems that they do not attach importance to communication, and their attention has always been focused on completing the investigation and doing what they want.

　　In the face of such an investigation, the Chinese side also described it in one sentence:

　　It is naked protectionism, creating and escalating trade frictions, undermining fair competition in the name of maintaining fair competition, and the biggest unfairness.

　　In the face of such acts, China must of course take measures to counter them.

　　In fact, this is not the first time that China has faced a countervailing investigation from Europe.

　　According to professional organizations, since the EU launched the first countervailing investigation against China in 2010, up to now, the EU has launched more than a dozen countervailing investigations against China.

　　Among them, the most well-known is the anti-subsidy and anti-dumping investigation initiated by the European Union against China’s photovoltaic industry.

　　China’s photovoltaic manufacturing enterprises mainly export. At that time, Europe was the main export market for China’s photovoltaic enterprises.

　　In this case, the EU plans to impose a 47.6% tariff on China in the preliminary ruling, which is undoubtedly to shut out the photovoltaic industry in China.

　　After the news was released, China and Europe held several rounds of intergovernmental negotiations. In the end, the EU terminated its own action of imposing tariffs.

　　China government will firmly defend the legitimate rights and interests of China enterprises. For enterprises in China, if the actions of the European side harm their own interests, enterprises in China will also issue a voice to safeguard their own rights and interests.

　　According to industry sources,The Chinese side is advancing the relevant procedures to increase the provisional tariff on the import of large-displacement gasoline vehicles.

　　Not long ago, people in the automobile industry in China have been calling for an increase in the provisional tariff on the import of large-displacement vehicles to promote the realization of the goal of "double carbon".

　　Large-displacement vehicles refer to gasoline vehicles with engine displacement greater than 2.5 liters.

　　China Passenger Transport Association has made a special calculation. At present, the total amount of passenger cars with a displacement of more than 2.5 liters exported from Europe to China every year has reached 18 billion US dollars. This figure is higher than the amount of electric vehicles exported by China to Europe in 2023.

　　If China raises the temporary tariff rate,European brands such as BMW and Mercedes-Benz will be the first to be hit, which also means that European automobile exports to China will be hit..

　　Cui Fan, an expert in international trade at the University of International Business and Economics, told Tan Zhu that the industry has called for China to increase the import tariff on large-displacement vehicles to 25%. If China takes such action, it will increase within the scope of China’s commitment to the World Trade Organization and it is fully in line with WTO rules.

　　In addition to the automobile industry, Tan learned that China is expected to announce the preliminary ruling on the anti-dumping investigation of imported brandy originating in the European Union at the end of August.

　　Last year, china alcoholic drinks association formally submitted an application for anti-dumping investigation to the Ministry of Commerce on behalf of the domestic brandy industry, and the Ministry of Commerce initiated an investigation in January this year.

　　How important the China market is to the European brandy industry, one data is enough to illustrate the problem:

　　According to the customs data, the China market has become the key to support the sales of European brandy, while the sales in other markets around the world have obviously declined. From January to September last year, EU brandy exports to China increased by more than one fifth year-on-year.

　　Cui Fan said that China and the European Union are both members of the World Trade Organization, and they are also members of the multi-party temporary appeal arbitration arrangement. They can also conduct pleadings through the dispute settlement mechanism and deal with issues under the framework of the WTO.

　　That is to say,There are many tools and means that China can use from the announcement of the preliminary ruling results by the European Union to the final ruling.

　　Zhang Monan, an expert from China International Economic Exchange Center, just finished his visit to Europe. She told Tan Zhu that she also talked about countervailing issues with government officials in Germany, Belgium and other countries. According to her observation, European countries are more worried about China’s countermeasures after imposing tariffs on China.

　　Zhang Monan said that at present, it is only a preliminary ruling disclosure, and temporary tariffs will be imposed on July 4, and there is still a reserved period for China enterprises and EU member States to raise objections.

　　If most EU countries object, these tariffs will not be implemented.

　　Now, there is still some time to make a ruling. It is not too late to mend, which also means that the European side still has the opportunity to return to the right track.

　　What is the right track, within Europe, is not unclear.

　　A noteworthy detail is that Germany, Hungary, Sweden and other countries expressed their opposition at the first time after the news that the European Commission decided to impose temporary countervailing duties on electric vehicles imported from China came out.

　　These countries are precisely the countries in the forefront of cooperation between the EU and China in the field of new energy vehicles.

　　What is in line with the interests of these countries, we can see some clues from the statement of Qi Puce, chairman of the German car company BMW Group.

　　Tsipce said that increasing tariffs will hinder the development of European car companies and will also harm Europe’s own interests. Trade protectionism is bound to trigger a chain reaction — — Respond to tariffs with tariffs and replace cooperation with isolation.

　　The reason why European car companies are worried about the decision of the European Commission to increase tariffs has a background that cannot be ignored:

　　Wei Qijia, a researcher at the National Information Center of the National Development and Reform Commission, pointed out that,In recent years, EU companies such as BMW, Volkswagen and Faurecia have continuously increased their new energy vehicle business in China and acquired key technologies such as batteries and intelligence. Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited, Weilai, BYD and other China enterprises have also set up factories in German and Hungarian, helping to enhance the competitiveness of the EU electric vehicle industry.

　　In the era of globalization, only by exerting comparative advantages can countries achieve better development. Although China and Europe have competition, they have more cooperation.

　　The win-win situation under cooperation is not only reflected in the automobile industry — — Strengthening cooperation with China in the field of new energy vehicles is also conducive to Europe’s response to climate change and green economic transformation.

　　According to the data of European Transport and Environment Association, 19.5% (about 300,000 vehicles) of electric vehicles sold in Europe in 2023 were produced in China. According to the estimation that each electric vehicle can reduce carbon by about 1.66 tons per year, it is equivalent to reducing carbon by 498,000 tons per year.

　　The EU has always prided itself as the "forerunner" of global green transformation. The European Commission’s decision to impose tariffs on China’s electric vehicles will not only hinder the pace of its automobile industry transformation, but also damage its image as a "pioneer" in green transformation.

　　In fact, even the European media themselves are saying that it is ridiculous for the EU to ask consumers to switch to electric vehicles while trying to stop the supply of cost-effective electric vehicles.

　　The relevant person in charge of the National Development and Reform Commission said,The combination will benefit both sides, and the fight will hurt both sides. The automobile industries in China and Europe are highly complementary, and the cooperation between the two sides has a foundation, space and prospects. China actively supports the fair competition of automobiles in various countries and maintains the stability of the global automobile industry chain supply chain. However, if the EU insists on imposing tariffs on China’s electric vehicles, ignoring the appeals of its own industry, basic market rules and WTO rules, and undermining the cooperation foundation of China-EU automobile industry, China will take all necessary measures to safeguard the legitimate rights of China enterprises.

　　Whether to choose a win-win situation or to harm others rather than benefit oneself, the EU still has time to think.

In recent years, the national economy has developed rapidly, and everyone’s income has also increased to a certain extent. It is very helpful for them to have a scooter for their daily commute. If you don’t consider the cost of using the car later when you buy a car, you will regret it afterwards. For example, today’s performance in this respect is worth talking about. Let’s take a look at it next.

Let’s take a look at the appearance of Aouita 12. The front of Aouita 12 looks very simple and sporty. The front headlights are very in line with the aesthetics of consumers and have full visual impact. The car is equipped with LED daytime running lights, automatic opening and closing, adaptive far and near light, delayed closing and so on. Coming to the side of the car body, the size of the car body is 5020MM*1999MM*1450MM, and the car body looks very stable with large-sized thick-walled tires, which gives people a very spiritual feeling. Looking back, the rear of the car looks round and lovely, and the taillights give people a very simple feeling, and the whole looks very elegant.

Sitting in the car, the interior of Aouita 12 enhances the visual sense of cleanliness and freshness, and embodies the sense of design. The steering wheel of the car is very in line with the interior style, and it is made of genuine leather, and the visual effect is good. Take a look at the central control. The car is decorated with a round and lovely touch-control LCD central control screen, which makes the interior style impressive and looks scientific and technological. Finally, let’s look at the dashboard and seats. The car is equipped with a personalized dashboard and looks very comfortable. The car uses leather seats, equipped with auxiliary seat with memory electric adjustment, seat with memory electric adjustment, seat proportion down and other functions, which is basically enough for daily use.

Aouita 12 is 402KW, with a total torque of 687N.m and a maximum speed of 220km/h.

The car is equipped with car networking, driving mode selection, Bluetooth key, NFC/RFID key, interior atmosphere light, traction control (ASR/TCS, etc.) and other configurations. The configuration performance is quite good, bringing drivers and passengers a comfortable car experience.

After reading this car, I believe you have a general understanding. I have already introduced this car almost. I believe many users who buy a car have taken a fancy to its comfort and practicality.

In the vast sea of new energy vehicles, pure electric SUV is leading the trend of future travel with its excellent practicality, comfort and intelligent technology, and is increasingly favored by young consumers. Today, we are fortunate to have invited three high-profile pure electric SUV models-BYD EV, Extreme Fox Alpha T5 and. They are not only the concentrated display of their respective brands’ technical strength, but also a brave exploration and practice of the dream of green travel. At the same time, these three pure electric SUV models are also different in technical concept, brand camp and design ideas, so who is the better choice that is more popular with consumers?

To be fair, we chose BYD Song PLUS Champion Edition EV 605KM Flagship PLUS, Extreme Fox Alfa T5 660 MAX and Kia EV5 720 Land for comparison.

Long battery life, great power! Who is more brilliant in the three power systems?

Different from the engine, gearbox and chassis of fuel vehicles, for pure electric vehicles, the battery, motor and electronic control system are the core components that most affect the performance and quality of the whole vehicle. Next, let’s go straight to the subject and see how these three players perform in this respect.

Byd song PLUS EVIt has a total motor power of 160kW and a maximum motor torque of 330N·m, but the maximum speed is only 175km/h, but it is enough for urban traffic lights, high-speed overtaking and other scenes. In addition, BYD’s housekeeping blade battery technology has better durability, safety and lower maintenance cost. At the same time, the 605km CTLC endurance performance is not a problem for daily use, and its practicality is better guaranteed.

Polar Fox Alpha T5The total power and maximum torque of the motor reached 200kW and 360N·m, respectively, but the maximum speed was only 180km/h, and the actual dynamic performance was not significantly different from that of Song PLUS. However, due to the adoption, the charging speed of the polar fox Alpha T5 is relatively faster, the fast charging time is only 0.28 hours, and the battery life has reached 660km, making it easier to cope with long-distance driving. However, the stability and safety are slightly worse, and more attention should be paid to daily car use and maintenance.

Participating in the comparisonKia EV5With the maximum motor torque of 160kW and the maximum motor torque of 310N·m, the power parameters are not brilliant among the three models, but thanks to the more advanced E-GMP platform and the super-large battery of 88.1kwh, the EV5 has a maximum speed of 185km/h and a long battery life of 720km. The actual dynamic performance is the best for three cars, and the advanced, stable and high efficiency of the three-electric system are relatively better.

Unlocking richer usage scenarios whose space practicality is better?

After talking about the feeling of driving, how do these three pure electric SUVs that are biased towards household needs feel when sitting up? Let’s continue to look down.

Thanks to the body size of 4785×1890×1660mm and the wheelbase performance of 2765mm,Song PLUS EVIt can provide users with ample interior space performance, especially leg space performance. At the same time, the rear row of Song PLUS EV adopts flat floor design to further alleviate the fatigue of long-distance travel. When the trunk is opened, the trunk space of Song PLUS EV is relatively regular, and the trunk cover supports two-stage adjustment, which fully meets the car demand in different scenarios.

Although the body length of 4690mm is not as long as that of Song PLUS EV,Polar Fox Alpha T5However, it has a body width of 1936mm and a wheelbase performance of 2845mm, and the passenger’s lateral seating space and leg space are relatively more relaxed. However, the shorter body length and the longer wheelbase have sacrificed the storage space in the trunk. Under normal conditions, the storage space in the trunk is only 400L, which is generally practical.

At first glance,EV5The advantage in size is not obvious, but the body height of 1715mm brings more head space than the other three players. In addition, KIA EV5 has a trunk volume of 513L and a front trunk volume of 67L, and the rear seats support 6: 4 flat folding, which can immediately expand a flat 1718L super-large space. At the same time, the configuration of the 5.4L central drawer, the drawer below the center console+hidden hook, and the multi-scene expansion table in the trunk also fully demonstrated EV5′ s powerful storage capacity, and its practicability was better than that of the other two players.

Intelligent configuration has its own advantages. Who can stand out from the top three?

Nowadays, with the large-scale promotion of electrification and intelligence of automobiles, consumers’ cognition and usage habits of automobiles have also changed significantly, not only with strong power and comfortable driving, but also with higher requirements for intelligent experience. The concept of automobile is gradually changing from a means of transportation to a multi-functional intelligent mobile terminal.

In terms of intelligence, participating in the comparisonSong PLUS EV Equipped with DiLink intelligent interconnection system, such functions as conventional speech recognition, OTA upgrade, Wifi hotspot, car networking, remote control and so on are all equipped. In terms of intelligent driving safety, Song PLUS is equipped with L2 intelligent driving assistance system, which covers conventional intelligent driving functions such as parallel line assistance, lane keeping assistance, full-speed adaptive cruise, lane keeping and so on, and can basically cover various road conditions for commuting and long-distance travel in urban areas.

By contrast,Polar Fox Alpha T5The functions of α-OS intelligent interconnection system are relatively richer. In addition to the conventional functions, it also has high-level intelligent configurations such as continuous speech recognition, four-zone speech control, and visible-to-talk, which makes it more intelligent. In terms of intelligent driving configuration, although the L2-level intelligent driving assistance system of Extreme Fox Alpha T5 has added automatic lane change assistance and start reminding functions, it is more convenient to drive in urban areas, but automatic parking and remote parking are not standard. At the same time, the number of standard ultrasonic radars is only 8, which makes it slightly difficult for novices to drive.

The last contestant to appear isKia EV5In terms of intelligent configuration, Kia Connect intelligent interconnection system integrates rich functions such as remote control, emergency rescue, vehicle diagnosis, etc. The new generation ccNC intelligent interconnection entertainment system covers dozens of localized practical apps, which fully meets the car habits of domestic users.

In terms of intelligent driving assistance, in addition to the conventional intelligent driving assistance configuration, KIA EV5 is also equipped with more advanced intelligent driving safety configurations such as HDA highway assistance, NSCC navigation-based intelligent endurance control, and DAW driver attention warning. In addition, it is equipped with two intelligent driving assistance configurations specially developed for parking scenes, namely, remote intelligent parking assistance II and parking collision prevention assistance, which further reduces the driving difficulty.

Write at the end:

As a popular pure electric SUV model, the performance of the three players is remarkable. Song PLUS EV benefits from the use of blade batteries and has obvious advantages in the stability and reliability of the three-electric system. Extreme Fox Alpha T5 is more suitable for users’ needs in terms of experience and intelligence, and its intelligent configuration is more abundant. Kia EV5 has no obvious partiality in all aspects, and it has achieved a very balanced consideration in terms of intelligence, safety, space utilization and three electric systems.

In addition, if you buy Kia EV5 now, you can enjoy a comprehensive benefit gift worth 40,000 yuan, and the subsidy for car trade-in is 20,000 yuan, and the comprehensive benefit can reach 60,000 yuan! BYD Song PLUS EV has brought four surprise gifts to consumers, such as glory rejuvenation gift, glory smart gift, glory worry-free gift and glory charging gift, and the replacement subsidy can reach up to 25,000 yuan. When you buy the Extreme Fox Alfa T5, you can enjoy heavy surprises such as all-in-one cash gift, all-in-one peer financial gift and all-in-one advanced rights gift. The cash discount can reach 31,888 yuan! The welfare policies of the three players are different. In contrast, Kia EV5 makes more profits. At the same time, as a mainstream joint venture brand, Kia EV5 is more reassuring in terms of product quality. For family users who pursue stable and reliable quality, EV5 is undoubtedly a better solution.

　　Recently, a number of colleges and universities across the country announced that since July 1, due to the high handling fee of 0.2%-0.6% charged by WeChat payment, the WeChat scan code payment service will be suspended in all scenarios such as campus card. In this regard, on the 29th, Weibo, the official of Tencent WeChat team, issued a statement, saying that due to the poor transmission of individual adjustments to the payment rate of college life service scenarios, everyone misunderstood and troubled, and hereby apologized to the majority of schools, teachers and students. The statement also pointed out that "in the non-profit scene on campus, we will continue to maintain the zero-rate preferential policy".

　　Many colleges and universities issued a notice saying

　　Wechat payment was suspended due to the increase in handling fees.

　　On June 26, the announcement issued by Nanjing University of Science and Technology stated that "WeChat Payment will finely manage the merchants in campus scenes from July 1, 2023, and charge two thousandths of the channel rate for merchants in non-tuition scenes. In order to cope with the high channel cost of WeChat, the school will adjust the payment channels of the new campus card consumption system. " Specifically, the campus card WeChat recharge and consumption will stop service on June 30th.

　　On June 27th, Northwest University announced, "Because Tencent WeChat Payment will finely manage users of campus scenes from July 1st, all other charges will be restricted and a handling fee of 0.6% will be charged. In order to safeguard the interests of teachers and students, from June 30 th, the WeChat scan code payment service will be suspended for the one-card users in the school, and the one-card campus card, Bank of Communications App, China Unionpay Quick Pass and Alipay will be used normally. "

　　In addition, within a week, many universities including Jiangsu Normal University, Southwest University of Science and Technology, Luoyang Institute of Technology and so on also issued relevant announcements, saying that due to the increase in handling fees, WeChat payment will be suspended in the campus payment scene.

　　WeChat response: the non-profit payment scenario continues to maintain zero rate.

　　In this regard, WeChat responded that WeChat Pay recently launched the merchant communication for the refined management of the campus industry rate. After the previous opinion collection and feedback, it is planned to provide services only for a small number of profitable scenarios such as e-commerce and wine travel at a preferential rate lower than the market average. "

　　Yesterday, the Tencent WeChat team released the "Latest Statement on College Rates" in the official Weibo, saying that due to the poor transmission of individual adjustments to the payment rates for college life service scenarios, everyone misunderstood and troubled, and we hereby apologize to the majority of schools and teachers and students. The statement also pointed out that in the campus non-profit scene, the zero-rate preferential policy will continue to be maintained.

　　The statement said: "Since 2015, WeChat payment has entered the campus, and long-term preferential policies of zero rate have been given to non-profit payment scenarios (tuition and fees, life services, etc.) on campus. However, with the continuous rise of campus scenes and the number of merchants, WeChat Pay found that some profit scenes such as e-commerce and business travel crowded out zero-rate education subsidy resources, resulting in increasing costs. This adjustment is to clarify this small number of profitability scenarios and implement a preferential rate policy below the market level. "

　　According to the reporter of Beiqing Daily, WeChat will charge a "channel fee" to the receiving merchants, which is generally 0.6%, and there will be concessions for some industries, such as 0.2%, 0.28%, 0.35%, etc., while it was 0% for college scenes such as tuition fees.

The current mainstream public opinion is that the prospects for joint venture brands are not optimistic. But in the spirit of not abandoning or giving up, there are still many foreign brands ready to take up the ante Chinese market.

Last month we said that the shareholders of Changan Mazda have planned to invest 10 billion continue to build trams in China. Even the waist brand is so fierce, how can the head brand lag behind. This month Mercedes-Benz also announced a major decision, let’s first draw the key points:

· Plans to invest over 14 billion yuan in China with Chinese partners to put into production a variety of local exclusive models in China to accelerate the transition to new energy;

Mercedes-Benz GLE and pure electric long wheelbase CLA based on the MMA platform will be domestically produced next year, and Fujian Benz will produce new luxury pure electric MPVs based on the VAN. EA platform in the future;

The all-new no-map end-to-end smart drive will debut with the new model in 2025.

Sales slump, Mercedes-Benz is tested in China

Among all overseas brands, the German brand is the most dependent on the Chinese market. If other overseas brands dare to say they are giving up the Chinese market, the German brand is the least willing to give up.

Mercedes-Benz’s global sales, the Chinese market sales account for more than 30% of the share. Therefore, Mercedes-Benz’s investment in China up the ante, on the one hand, is of course to continue to be optimistic about the Chinese market, on the other hand, it also shows that the market competition has reached a critical stage of life and death, and the technology of pressing the bottom of the box must be taken out.

Data show that in the first half of this year, Mercedes-Benz’s global overall sales 1.168 million, down 6% year-on-year. Sales of passenger cars were 959,700, down 6% year-on-year. Among them, sales in the Chinese market were 341,500, down as much as 9% year-on-year, and the decline was much higher than that in Europe and North America.

Horizontally, although BBA’s sales in China fell in the first half of the year, Mercedes-Benz’s sales fell the most. BMW fell 4.3% year-on-year in the first half of the year, and Audi fell 2% year-on-year.

There are two reasons. In terms of new energy, although Mercedes-Benz has come up with products in new energy very early, the market performance so far has been unsatisfactory.

The early pure electric models had a poor reputation due to "oil-to-electricity"; although the new EQ series had improved performance, the technology was not as good as that of domestic independent brands, and the pricing still maintained a high brand premium, which made it at a disadvantage in the competition with competitors at the same level in the context of price wars.

In terms of traditional fuel vehicles, the long-wheelbase C-Class and long-wheelbase GLC relied on significant discounts to stabilize sales and achieve year-on-year growth; but another pillar of sales and profits, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, has just been replaced and is still in the production capacity climbing stage, which has dragged down the broader market.

The decline in sales and the negative effects of the price war have also put Mercedes-Benz’s domestic sales channels under great pressure to lose money. In the past two years, Mercedes-Benz has repeatedly paid to subsidize dealers to stabilize the channel’s military heart.

The good news is that after half a year of climbing, with the gradual release of discounts, the E-Class has returned to the normal level of monthly sales of 10,000 vehicles. In July, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class has regained the sales champion in the luxury medium and large car market. But new energy is still the biggest challenge for Mercedes-Benz to face. And the basic disk of Mercedes-Benz fuel vehicles is also under great pressure. Not only does it need to reduce prices to ensure sales, but the luxury reputation and value are also being tested.

The new plan still faces many challenges

Looking at Mercedes-Benz’s official announcement plan in detail, there are still several issues to be observed.

In terms of user experience, the next few upcoming domestic models all emphasize that they are China’s local R & D team and customized for the Chinese market, demonstrating Mercedes-Benz’s sincerity in attaching importance to Chinese user requests.

However, the so-called "local research and development" and "Chinese exclusive customization" models launched by car companies in recent years have received mixed reviews. In particular, some models that were once regarded as classics by car fans often lose their original characteristics after being replaced and changed, and are easily sprayed because of "domestic special supply".

Secondly, in the field of pure electricity, domestic brands are still leading and joint venture brands are catching up. Even if foreign brands come up with the latest technology, there is still a gap with domestic brands.

Take the CLA-class concept car that has been unveiled before, for example, the comprehensive energy conversion efficiency is 93%, the battery life is 400 kilometers in 15 minutes, and the energy efficiency performance of 12 kWh/100 kilometers is very good in the existing product lineage of Mercedes-Benz, but it has not yet reached the leading level among a large number of domestic new energy sources.

Finally, the domestic Mercedes-Benz GLE has long been the imaginary enemy and benchmark in the PPT of many domestic luxury new energy vehicles. For example, Ideal, Ask the World, NIO, etc., they have surpassed the second-tier luxury brands in terms of brand and sales, and have begun to approach the BBA. In terms of price, they have always had the advantage of domestic cars.

After the localization of the domestic Mercedes-Benz GLE, after all, still have to bear the task of profit, pricing can not be too radical. The current import GLE market end point price is about 60-700,000, the domestic GLC is in the 40-500,000 range, so the domestic GLE is likely to fall to about 500,000, it is difficult to say that there is an absolute attraction in the face of domestic new luxury.

The final end-to-end smart driving, Mercedes-Benz still needs to race against time. Domestic new energy brands have begun to shift to end-to-end smart driving on a large scale this year, and have devolved pure visual smart driving solutions to various price segments. For example, the price of Xiaopeng MONA M03 using pure visual solutions is only below 200,000 yuan. Equipped with Huawei pure visual smart driving, it will be on the bus in many brands such as Wenjie and Deep Blue. High-end end-to-end ADS 3.0 is also being popularized one after another.

By the time Mercedes-Benz’s end-to-end smart car launches in 2025, even if the technology and experience can compete, there is no preconceived advantage in the user’s mind.

Conclusion:

Cowardice before battle is a taboo for military experts. Overall, although facing many difficulties in the Chinese market, Mercedes-Benz continues to invest heavily in the Chinese market at this stage, indicating that it still has confidence in its own development in the Chinese market.

It’s just that the current Chinese market value standards and price system have changed. The era of luxury brands making money lying down has passed, and the old-fashioned things can no longer be played. This means that Mercedes-Benz needs to face up to this change. The most important thing next is to see if the new product can restore the confidence of the market and users in Mercedes-Benz, so that users can re-enter the arms of Mercedes-Benz.

"550,000 buy a luxury SUV, but I regret it!"

Have you heard the expression "buying a car is like buying a watch"?

That’s right, the "you can afford a car, not necessarily a watch" meme.

But what I want to say today is: you can afford a watch, but not necessarily a car!

What do you mean? Don’t worry, just listen to me slowly.

A few days ago, my normally low-key little boy suddenly posted a car key at Moments.

At first glance, I thought it was some weird high-tech product. Take a closer look, man!

This is the benchmark for luxury SUVs! As a veteran melon eater, I immediately opened my calculator:

550,000 start, 4-wheel drive, 2.5L hybrid, 21-inch wheels…

Good guy, this configuration is properly to show off the rhythm of wealth!

Without saying a word, I immediately sent a message to Fa Xiao: "Brother, you are rich! This car has to be small 700,000 right?"

Unexpectedly, he replied: "How is it possible, 470,000 will get it after the discount."

I was taken aback.

470,000?? Or RX?

Is there something wrong with this? Are they counterfeit products?

Suspicious, I decided to see for myself what the devil was about this "cheap" luxury car.

The next morning, I went downstairs to Fa Xiao’s house.

From a distance, a silver SUV was parked there, shining brightly in the sun.

Take a closer look, good guy, this aura, this appearance, a proper first-line luxury brand style!

The bezel-less spindle grille is very domineering, and the two sides seem to be winking at me.

Look at the 21-inch rim again, tsk tsk, it’s simply a walking work of art!

I couldn’t help but sigh: What kind of SUV is this, this is clearly a moving sculpture with four wheels!

Just as I was lost in the appearance of the vehicle, I couldn’t extricate myself from it.

"How is it? Are you satisfied?" he asked with a smile.

I gave it a thumbs up. "How cool! That’s a Lexus icon!"

Fa Xiao took out the key proudly: "Let’s go, get in the car and experience it!"

After getting into the car, I realized what it meant to be "inside the universe".

7-Inch LCD instrument panel, 14-inch central control screen, plus HUD head-up display…

What kind of SUV is this, this is clearly a moving high-tech exhibition hall!

What surprises me even more is that this car actually has facial recognition capabilities!

I couldn’t help but say, "Are today’s cars so advanced that they can even recognize faces?"

Fa Xiao smiled and said, "That is, just recognizing a human face is nothing, it can also park its own car!"

I instantly felt like a bumpkin.

Just as I was immersed in the ocean of technology and couldn’t extricate myself, my little friend suddenly said something that made me fall into an ice cave:

"Actually, I kind of regret buying this car."

I was stunned: "Regret? What is there to regret about such a good car?"

Fa Xiao sighed: "Do you know what I regret the most about buying this car?"

I shook my head, confused.

"The biggest regret is… not buying it sooner!"

I almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

"Do you know that last year, this car will cost more than 600,000! Now 470,000 can get it after the discount. If I buy it a year earlier, wouldn’t it be a loss?"

Hearing this, I finally understand what it means to "afford a watch, but not necessarily a car."

Yes, 470,000 can buy such a luxury SUV, this is simply in the luxury, luxury in the flat for ah!

Suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind:

Wait, can I also…

Looking at Fa Xiao’s complacent appearance, I secretly swore in my heart:

One day, I will also buy a car like this!

No, I want to buy better!

So…

Upon returning home, I immediately opened it.

However, looking at the prices of 700,000 to 800,000 at every turn, I suddenly felt that my eyes were black.

I silently closed the page and opened a certain Duoduo…

Friends, do you think my mentality is "looking up at the stars and stepping on watermelon rind"?

Have you ever been moved by a friend buying something?
