Concert market chaos investigation: scalpers are raging, the market is warming up, and the audience is cold

  On the morning of the 26th, it was revealed that the audience shouted refund for the #WubaiHefei concert. According to Nine Pai News Video, on November 24th in Hefei, Anhui Province, before the performance of the Wubai concert, many audience shouted "refund" because of unreasonable seating arrangements, which attracted widespread attention. On the 25th, an audience member said that he bought a VIP area of 1,280 yuan and was assigned to the V6 area. "The stage is recessed, and two large screens are added on each side. We can only see half of the stage on both sides of V5 and V6. The band behind us is basically invisible, and people can’t see it. The big screen looked up. Many fans said that they went to massage after watching it." It claims that the organizers did not inform them in advance of the risk of being blocked from view in zones V5 and V6.

  This is not the first concert this year that has caused complaints because of the obstruction of the viewing location. Before this, the "pillar ticket" of Liang Jingru’s concert in Shanghai also attracted public attention. According to the upstream news, with the explosive recovery of the concert market this year, the old problems such as high-priced tickets, scalper tickets, and "pillar" tickets continue to appear, and with the "sinking market" of concerts, some chaos in concerts held in third- and fourth-tier cities has begun to appear.

  The performance market will explode in 2023

  According to statistics, the total box office of national commercial performances in the first half of 2023 increased by nearly seven times year-on-year, according to Beijing Youth Daily. According to data released by the China Performance Industry Association, the total number of national commercial performances in the first half of 2023 was 193,300, with a total box office of 16.793 billion yuan, an increase of 673.5% year-on-year. Recovery and growth have become the core keywords of the offline performance market. According to Crowley’s report data on the economic development of offline music performances in 2023, from February to March this year, the number of daily active users of Damai.com increased by 74% compared with the same period in 2019, 4 times more than the same period in 2022, setting a five-year high. During the same period, Barley sold 47,000 performances, which was 3 times that of 2019. The platform box office scale and ticket purchases increased by 127% and 87% respectively compared with the same period in 2019. The box office of offline music performances increased significantly.

  According to media reports, the opening ceremony of the 22nd China Shanghai International Arts Festival Performance Fair and the 28th Yangtze River Delta Performance Fair, Liu Kezhi, president of the China Performance Industry Association, shared relevant data in his opening speech: In the first three quarters of 2023, the number of commercial performances (excluding entertainment venues) reached 342,400, an increase of 278.76% year-on-year; the box office revenue reached 31.54 billion yuan, an increase of 453.74% year-on-year; unique viewers 100 million 11.05 million, an increase of 532.6% year-on-year, showing the huge market vitality of the national performance industry. However, with the recovery of the performance market, the important segments of the concert market, such as high-priced tickets, scalper tickets, and "pillar" tickets, continued to emerge. With the "sinking market" of concerts, some of the concerts held in third- and fourth-tier cities began to show some chaos.

  Big concertIt’s hard to get a ticket "the goods are not on the right board"

  According to Jiupai News, after more than a month of warm-up, on the evening of July 21, the TFBOYS "Ten-Year Covenant" concert was officially announced. In the afternoon of the same day, the entry "TFBOYS Official Expo Online" was already on Weibo’s trending topic list. Shortly after the official announcement of the concert, the first row of tickets was marked to 200,000 by "scalpers", and the second and third rows were also 150,000 yuan each.

  According to a number of "scalpers", compared with the sky-high price invitation letter, the auction is the most cost-effective way to buy TFBOYS concert tickets. According to the auction fee table of a "scalper", a ticket with the highest price of 2013 yuan for a TFBOYS concert costs more than 7,000 yuan, while a ticket with a face value of 806 yuan costs more than 3,000 yuan. On the eve of the ticket grab, many scalpers made it clear that the order has been saturated and stopped taking orders. "After tonight, I can’t accept the 10,000 generation grab fee, and the pit space is limited." According to reports, a "scalper" group composed of several hundred college students received more than 50 orders, and it cost 3,000 yuan to find a programmer to write a ticket grab program to prepare a machine and manual dual channel to grab tickets. Some scalpers even recruited temporary part-time shooters due to insufficient demand. If the 2013 yuan ticket price is successfully grabbed, there will be a commission of 3,500 yuan, with an average of 4-5 people grabbing a ticket.

  And similar to the situation of the Wu Bai concert, according to the previous news Knews news, some audience reported that they spent thousands of yuan to buy tickets for Liang Jingru’s Shanghai concert, but after arriving, they found that their vision was blocked by the pillars around the stage, and watching the singer became a pillar.

  According to reports, footage taken by Ms. Zhang, a Shanghai resident, at her concert on May 20 showed that she bought a ticket worth 1,299 yuan on the second-floor grandstand, and the pillar directly in front of the seat happened to block the singer. Coincidentally, Mr. Liu, who bought a ticket of 999 yuan, also encountered a similar situation. On the Internet, the topic of the two Liang Jingru concerts in Shanghai blocking the line of sight caused heated discussions, and hundreds of consumers who had the same experience launched rights protection. According to reports, Damai has communicated the matter with the project organizers; the concert organizer, Shanghai Rubik’s Cube Pan Culture Performing Arts Co., Ltd., said that during the ticketing stage, they did not know that there would be four pillars in the stage design; Xuhui District Consumer Protection Commission has intervened and interviewed the company, and will urge the formulation of a solution in the future.

  According to Red Star News, on November 15, the lawsuit related to the "pillar ticket" of Liang Jingru’s concert in Shanghai was heard in the Meilong Court of the People’s Court of Minhang District, Shanghai. A total of 9 spectators filed a lawsuit against the concert organizer, Shanghai Rubik’s Cube Pan-Culture Performing Arts Co., Ltd. The court combined the nine lawsuits and has not yet pronounced a verdict. According to reports, on the issue of concert disputes, the Shanghai Consumer Rights Protection Commission has counted that since 2023, concerts have become a new hotspot of consumption, resulting in an increase in concert-related complaints. The Municipal Consumer Protection Commission has accepted more than 7,000 concert-related consumer complaints, including group complaints caused by obstruction of consumers’ seat views. Due to the difficulty in reaching a consensus between operators and consumers on the consequences of damage and liability for compensation, complaints about the occlusion of the concert line of sight are frequent and highly concentrated.

  As if it was a response to Liang Jingru’s concert "pillar ticket", according to the Yangzi Evening News Network, after the official announcement of Jay Chou’s 2023 Carnival World Tour Concert Hohhot Station, a "Special Ticket Announcement" appeared in the official ticketing channel Cat’s Eye Ticketing. On August 14, the organizer of this concert, Shanxi Xingtai Guangying Culture and Entertainment Co., Ltd. issued an announcement, saying that it would meet the needs of the majority of fans, so that more fans could experience the joyous atmosphere of the "Jay Chou Carnival Concert" Hohhot station on the spot, and reduce congestion outside the concert venue. After coordination and striving with all parties, the organizer will sell seats with special discounts due to poor visibility in the area blocked by the sound console. The organizers also stated in the announcement that the seats in this area are blocked to varying degrees, and it is impossible to fully see the whole stage. A large screen is set up behind the sound console for the audience to watch, and the special tickets will not be refunded or exchanged after purchase. What caused the audience’s heated discussion was that although it is a blocked ticket, it is also divided into three gears, which are divided into 600 yuan, 500 yuan and 300 yuan. "I never expected that this will be divided into gears?" Some fans complained.

  How to protect the rights of "pillar ticket" and "wall ticket"

  Zhang Ming, a lawyer and partner of Beijing Jingshi Law Firm, said in an interview with China News Agency that Article 8 and Article 9 of the Consumer Rights Protection Law stipulate that consumers have the right to know and the right to choose goods or services independently. Viewers have the right to know the true situation of the services available for the selected seat when purchasing tickets. If the ticket seller and the organizer do not distinguish the seats whose line of sight is blocked in advance by marking and reducing the price, consumers can exercise reasonable rights protection based on the Consumer Rights Protection Law.

  However, Zhang Ming also admits that the current cost of protecting fans’ rights is too high. Although the price of concert tickets may be as high as thousands of yuan, from the perspective of litigation, the amount is still very small. Litigation itself usually requires the appointment of lawyers, and it also requires a long cycle and high cost. Therefore, few people choose to go to the court to safeguard rights litigation. Generally, they can only choose to negotiate, seek help from consumer rights protection organizations, or complain to administrative supervision departments.

  Fu Jian, director of Henan Zejin Law Firm, believes that enjoying a complete audio-visual experience is the main right of concert ticket buyers and the main obligation of the organizers. Due to the failure of live performance equipment, the audience cannot hear the sound, or the performance cannot be seen due to occlusion, etc., the services provided by the organizers are defective, and consumers can ask the organizers to refund the tickets or refund part of the fees.

  According to the Consumer Rights Protection Law, if the goods or services provided by the operator do not meet the quality requirements, consumers can return the goods in accordance with national regulations and the parties’ agreement, or require the operator to perform obligations such as replacement and repair, Fu Jian said. Consumers can communicate with the organizer to request compensation or refund. If the two parties cannot reach an agreement, they can report the complaint to the market supervision department or consumer association, or sue the court to claim their legitimate rights and interests.

  In response to the provision that concert tickets are generally sold without refund, Fu Jian believes that the concert ticket purchase agreement belongs to the format clause, and the non-return and exchange once sold excludes the main rights of consumers. According to the provisions of the Civil Code, the format clause that excludes the main rights of the other party is invalid, and the concert tickets in the Interim Measures for the Return of Goods Purchased Online in Seven Days without Reason are not non-refundable goods. The platform unilaterally restricts the rights and interests of consumers to return and exchange tickets, which is a situation that aggravates the responsibility of the other party, and it is likely to be found to be invalid. However, considering that concerts have a certain timeliness, and the refund of tickets for upcoming performances is likely to affect secondary sales, it is reasonable to make restrictive provisions on refund.

  The China Consumers Association also suggested that relevant performance ticketing platforms and organizers should consider how to better protect consumers’ rights and interests and improve consumer experience from the perspective of promoting the release of consumption potential, and reasonably formulate ticket return and exchange rules based on the principle of fairness and publicize them to consumers to ensure that consumers are fully informed and actively confirmed before purchasing tickets. If "no return, no exchange" tickets are launched, refundable tickets should be launched at the same time, and reasonable prices should be set for consumers to choose and arm’s length transaction.

  On September 13, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism and the Ministry of Public Security jointly issued the "Notice on Further Strengthening the Standardized Management of Large-scale Commercial Performance Activities and Promoting the Healthy and Orderly Development of the Performance Market". It requires that performance organizers should establish a ticket refund mechanism for large-scale performance activities, set a reasonable level of ticket refund fees, and ensure the legitimate refund rights of ticket buyers.

  A little more news:

  The "sinking" concert market is full of slots

  According to the China Performance Industry Association’s "National Performance Market Brief for the First Half of 2023", music performances in third- and fourth-tier cities will increase in 2023, and performance cities will extend from first- and second-tier cities to third- and fourth-tier cities. In this regard, People magazine interviewed five young people who watched concerts in their hometowns, and upstream news sorted out some of the characteristics displayed.

  Handan: The stars converge like a rural stage

  The interviewee, Ms. Wang, said that in June, Handan held another concert. The title seller of the concert was a well-known wine company in Handan. "This concert also gave away a lot of tickets. The school teachers will send it out, the surrounding residents will send it out, the wine will be sent out, and the developers will also send it out. I feel like I can’t wait for half of Handan City to go."

  According to his introduction, maybe because of the gathering of stars, four hosts were arranged to join the show, "But I think this host is also strange. There are one and the other to make everyone shout slogans and advertising words, and the interaction is very embarrassing, a bit like that kind of rural stage."

  Maoming: Pour Coke in a Coke bottle and sell it for 15 yuan

  The interviewee, Mr. Li, said that he was more speechless about spending during the music festival. "Food and water are not allowed at this music festival, even umbrellas are not allowed. I brought an umbrella and it was taken away… The umbrellas sold in the booth are 50 yuan a piece." Mr. Li also said that when he was hungry, he and his colleagues went to buy beef instant noodles, even if the instant noodles were added with a few pieces of beef, it cost about 40 yuan. "I went to buy Coke, and the staff poured Coke directly from a large Coke bottle, added a few pieces of ice, and sold it to me for 15 yuan." In addition, at the end of the performance, Mr. Li and his friends drove away. When they arrived at the exit of the parking lot, they found a large area blocked. They scanned the code to pay the parking fee. As a result, the signal was very weak, and they could not pay the fee. There were no staff there to serve.

  Guigang: The sound quality is too poor, and the stars sing with difficulty.

  The interviewee, Ms. Luo, said that the only concert she saw this year was a star concert. She said that on the first day of the ticket release, she grabbed 388 yuan of tickets from the grandstand area. "It stands to reason that the tickets bought on the first day must be closer to the stage, but when we arrived at the venue, we were at the’top of the mountain ‘in the last row." Ms. Luo asked the people in front of the seat that they bought tickets only a week before the show started, which cost only 200 yuan, or locally. The infield is even more exaggerated, and the tickets of 1200 yuan can be bought for more than 500 yuan before the opening. "Although the venue is quite large, the stage is really too small, which I can tolerate. But the sound quality is really bad. The celebrities also sing very hard, and they feel a little unable to speak. "

  Nanping: Order and Chaos star performance is sloppy

  According to the interviewee, Ms. Zhang, the organizers of the concert did little publicity and did not have a guide sign. As the opening approached, people began to sit in the stadium one after another, but many people took free and discounted tickets. "The person next to me came after dinner, and he said that he drank some wine in the evening, and he still smelled of alcohol." Ms. Zhang said that the order was also a bit chaotic after the performance began. Some people left their seats and squeezed into the front row, and the security did not care. "My husband and I both felt that a certain star acted sloppily when singing, like completing a task. After singing, they left the stage without interacting."

  A city in Hebei: Sponsor "bottle" ads are played throughout the screen

  The interviewee, Ms. Zhang, introduced that after the opening of the "All Stars Concert", everyone began to shout "refund". When the first singer came out, everyone did not give face at all, and they were also shouting, "There were some artists singing in the middle of the journey. Obviously, they were frightened by this scene, and they did not interact much.

  Wine ads scrolled on the big screen. People magazine

  Ms. Zhang said that from the perspective of the scene, the lighting design is not very reasonable. People are sitting in the infield, and the lights are directly shining on people’s faces, which is very dazzling. "There are a few small screens on the stage, and four of them play animations of wine bottles throughout. When the artist sings, the’big wine bottle ‘is still rolling next to it, which is very eye-catching."

In addition, cloud computing technology is also a key word that Alibaba has mentioned many times in its fundraising purposes.

  However, the specific issuance plan has not been disclosed in the prospectus this time. According to previous media reports, Alibaba Group plans to issue 500 million new ordinary shares through the global sale and list them on the main board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The issuance includes 500 million ordinary shares and an overallotment share that can issue up to 75 million additional ordinary shares. It is expected to be priced as early as November 20, Hong Kong time. The company’s fundraising amount may be between 100-15 billion US dollars, and the price range is calculated at a 4% discount to the US stock price, around 180 US dollars per share.

  Ma Yun holds 6.1% of the shares, and the company implements a different rights structure for the same shares

  In addition, the prospectus also disclosed Alibaba’s shareholding structure, with SoftBank holding 25.8%, Ma Yun holding 6.1%, Cai Chongxin holding 2.0%, other directors and senior management holding 0.9%, and other public shareholders holding 65.2%.

  In addition, Alibaba also talked about the company’s partnership system in the prospectus. According to the prospectus, in July 2010, Alibaba officially established the Alibaba Partnership, which currently has 38 members.

  According to the disclosure, the members of the organization only have a single class of shares, and each share corresponds to one voting right, but according to the Articles of Association, Alibaba Partners has the exclusive right to nominate (or in limited cases, great men) a simple majority of the board members. These rights are classified under different voting rights structures under the Hong Kong Listing Rules, so Alibaba is considered a company with different share rights structures.

  In the second quarter, more than 60% of Alibaba’s revenue came from Tmall and Taobao.

  On the evening of November 13, the prospectus disclosed by Alibaba in Hong Kong stocks shows that in the fiscal year 2019 (April 1, 2018 – March 31, 2019), the company achieved a total revenue of 376.844 billion yuan and a net profit of 80.234 billion yuan. In addition, from April 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019, Alibaba achieved a total operating income of 114.924 billion yuan and a net profit of 19.122 billion yuan.

  In addition to disclosing financial data, Alibaba also showed its commercial version in the prospectus. At present, Alibaba’s main business includes core business, cloud computing, digital media and entertainment, and innovation business. Among them, core business is Alibaba’s main source of income. A total of 323.40 billion yuan in fiscal year 2019, accounting for 85.82% of total revenue.

  In the core business, China’s retail business, dominated by Taobao and Tmall, generates the highest revenue. According to the financial report, during the three months from April 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019, approximately 66% of Alibaba’s revenue came from China’s retail business.

  According to the prospectus, the core business can be divided into six specific business directions, namely China retail business (mainly Taobao and Tmall), cross-border and global retail business (Tmall overseas, Koala, AliExpress and South East Asia, Turkey, Pakistan and other countries and regions of the e-commerce platform), China wholesale business (1688.com and retail), cross-border and global wholesale business (alibaba.com), logistics service business (Cainiao network), life service business (Ele.me, word of mouth, flying pig).

  In addition to its core business, Alibaba’s business also includes cloud computing (Alibaba Cloud), digital media and entertainment (Youku, UC Browser, Alibaba Pictures), and innovation (Autonavi, DingTalk, Tmall Genie).

  Ali’s commercial version, the picture is taken from Alibaba’s prospectus

  It is worth noting that in the prospectus, Alibaba also stated that the company has held a total of 33% shares in Ant Financial since September 2019. In addition, since June 30, 2019, Alibaba has made or plans to make equity investments in a total of 24 companies, with a total amount of 38.529 billion yuan.

  Expert: Alibaba’s return to Hong Kong for listing will enhance the company’s influence

  Yang Delong, managing director and chief economist of Qianhai Open Source Fund, pointed out to China New York Matrix that Alibaba’s return to the Hong Kong stock market has three major benefits, one is to make up for the regret of not being able to list on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in the past, and the other is to achieve new financing. Finally, because Alibaba’s main revenue and profits come from China, listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange is conducive to further expanding Ali’s influence in Greater China and promoting its business growth.

  In addition, for the possible impact of Alibaba’s listing on the market, Yang Delong believes that according to the current news, Alibaba’s listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange will raise 100-15 billion US dollars, which will become the largest fundraising in the history of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Therefore, in the short term, it may indeed bring pressure on the Hong Kong stock market to divert funds.

  "But we can’t just see the role of capital diversion brought by Alibaba’s Hong Kong stock listing. As a representative of the new economy, Alibaba provides new investment targets for Hong Kong stock investors, which helps to attract some investors to invest, thus stimulating the active level of the Hong Kong stock market. In addition, with Alibaba’s return to Hong Kong stocks, it will sooner or later be included in the targets of Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect and Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect, which also provides a new opportunity for mainland investors, and may also bring new incremental funds to the Hong Kong stock market." Yang Delong said. (China-Singapore Jingwei APP)

    At the opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China presented a beautiful freehand painting of Chinese civilization to the world. Just a few hours after the emotion and passion had not yet cooled, another wonderful Chinese legend kicked off in the public area of the Olympic Park. A large-scale cultural exhibition called "China Story" was officially opened in the public area of the Olympic Park on the morning of August 9. Leaders and representatives of the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee and 30 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities across the country, as well as stars such as Jackie Chan, Zhou Huajian, Mok Wen Wei, Yu Dan, sociologists and 30 representatives of folk artists appeared on the same stage to tell Chinese stories.


  Jackie Chan burst into tears at the opening ceremony


  At 10 am, the Chinese story and culture exhibition area in the public area of the Olympic Park unfolded a huge scroll with seals engraved with the names of 30 provinces, regions and cities, which dyed the beautiful and quiet public areas in the past with a cultural atmosphere. During the Beijing Olympic and Paralympic Games, more than 30 "auspicious cloud huts" will display China’s national cultural heritage and the vibrant ethnic and folk cultures of various regions through live handicraft performances and audience participation and interaction. Stars and folk artists such as Jackie Chan and Yu Dan became the biggest highlights of the opening ceremony.


  Jackie Chan and Yu Dan, who have made Hollywood famous for Chinese kung fu and become the pride of all Chinese people, and who have become famous promoters of the revival of Sinology in the new century by promoting traditional culture, when the two heavyweight guests gathered at the opening ceremony to talk about "China’s story in the eyes of the world", they collided with a lot of ideological sparks. "We should build a small courtyard and put some things on it so that people around the world can see our Chinese culture." Jackie Chan said that he was present at the opening ceremony the night before, and he cried when the torch was lit. "This is not the first time I have cried for the Beijing Olympics. As a Chinese, the Olympic Games are held in my own country, and on such an occasion, no one can suppress the excitement. The Chinese are good, and the opening ceremony is a perfect start." Like Jackie Chan, Yu Dan, a scholar, said the opening ceremony would give the world a better understanding of Chinese culture. "I hope that Chinese culture can use the platform of the Olympic Games to go to the world and let the world see the real wonders of China."


  Zhou Huajian and his mixed-race son sing on stage


  "Everyone is equally useful. Volunteer, invariably. Forget yourself, and be open-minded. I am a star, embellishing the sky…" As a special pair of volunteers at the opening ceremony, Zhou Huajian and his son took the stage to sing the volunteer theme song "I am a star". Referring to his mixed-race son Zhou Houan, Zhou Huajian was very proud. "We are both volunteers for the Olympic Games. Before the opening of the Olympic Games, he had already reported to his assigned area – ‘China Story’. I heard from the staff that he was very diligent. He helped my brother and sister who were filming documentaries carry the machines every day and went out on location, which made my father a lot of light." Joining Zhou Huajian and others at the Olympic Park to help promote Chinese culture during the Olympic Games, Mok Wenwei and Sun Nan also sang passionately on stage, kicking off the "China Story".


  According to reports, in the more than 30 auspicious cloud huts in the Chinese Story Exhibition Area of the Olympic Public Area, the best national intangible cultural heritage retained by various provinces, regions and cities will be highlighted in a space of 60 to 80 square meters. Jiangsu brocade worth tens of millions, wonderful and moving Kunqu Opera performances, interesting Shaanxi shadow puppets, hidden entrances in Chongqing face-changing, colorful and fragrant sugar paintings… The "Chinese Story" cultural exhibition activities use novel and diverse forms of display such as pictures, real objects, multimedia audio-visual arts, combined with live handicraft performances and audience participation and interaction, to vividly tell friends from all over the world about the beauty of Chinese culture.

Beidou Navigation System empowers the entire industrial chain

  Beidou network, stars shine all over the world.

  On July 29, the reporter learned from the China Satellite Navigation System Management Office that the last networking satellite of the Beidou-3 system has completed in-orbit testing, network access evaluation, and has been officially connected to the network recently.

  In ancient times, there was Beidou Seven Stars to identify the direction, and now there is Beidou Satellite Positioning Kyushu. This global satellite navigation system independently built and operated by our country will provide global users with all-weather, all-day, high-precision positioning, navigation and timing services. What are the capabilities of Beidou satellite navigation system and how to achieve the development of the whole industry chain? How will Beidou satellite global networking promote the transformation of production and life and empower the development of industries?

  Have five abilities

  Beidou satellite navigation system is an important space infrastructure independently built and operated by our country, and it is also the largest, widest coverage and highest service performance giant complex space system in our country so far.

  Speaking of Beidou, many people’s first reaction is "navigation and positioning". Real-time navigation and fast positioning are the most basic functions of a satellite navigation system. In addition, Beidou also has three features: accurate timing, location reporting and short message communication.

  "The Beidou satellite itself is a timing system in our country," said Lu Xiaochun, deputy director of the National Time Service Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The accuracy of the on-board rubidium atomic clock on the Beidou-3 satellite is at the international leading level, and can reach 5 10 billion seconds per day. At present, this function has been widely used in communications, power, finance and other systems.

  The location reporting function is closely related to the characteristics of Beidou’s "active positioning". Active positioning is a major innovation of China’s Beidou. Using radio measurement technology, through two geostationary orbit satellites, it can not only answer the user’s "where am I", but also tell the relevant parties who follow the user’s whereabouts "where are you". It is widely used in search and rescue, fishing and other fields, and is a "clairvoyant" to ensure the safety of people’s livelihood.

  The short message communication function is the "unique stunt" of the Beidou system. Navigation satellites and communications satellites are two types of satellites, but Beidou navigation satellites have additional communication functions. Wang Bo, deputy secretary-general of the China Satellite Navigation and Positioning Association, said that Beidou users can use the end point to not only know their location, but also tell others about their situation through short messages. This function is crucial in areas without network coverage such as deserts, distant oceans, deep mountains and forests, or when disasters occur and communication is blocked.

  "After the Wenchuan earthquake, all ground communication facilities have been completely disconnected. The information is actually based on the short message and short message function of Beidou-1. Although it is only capable of a few hundred Chinese characters, it was very effective at that time." Wang Ping, chief designer of Beidou-3 satellite at the Fifth Academy of Aerospace Science and Technology Group, said.

  In the Beidou-3 system, the ability of short message communication has been significantly improved, and the information sending capacity has been increased from 120 Chinese characters to 1200 Chinese characters at the first time, which is widely used in many fields such as ocean fishing, rescue and disaster relief, and global search and rescue. According to Yu Xiancheng, president of the China Satellite Navigation and Positioning Association, more than 70,000 fishing boats and law enforcement vessels across the country have installed Beidou end point, and a total of more than 10,000 people have been rescued.

  The Beidou satellite navigation system consists of three parts: the space segment, the ground segment, and the user segment. It is worth mentioning that the Beidou space segment uses a hybrid constellation of three orbiting satellites. In addition to having medium-circle earth orbit satellites like the US GPS, European Galileo, and Russian GLONASS satellite navigation systems, it also has geostationary orbit satellites and tilted geosynchronous orbit satellites. These two types of satellites belong to high-orbit satellites. The higher the satellite, the stronger its anti-occlusion ability. Whether it is in a city with high-rise buildings or in a mountainous area with many obstructions, Beidou can still "hold on to its post" when other satellite systems cannot be positioned. Especially in low latitudes, Beidou performance is more advantageous.

  Benefit domestic service global

  On May 27, China’s 2020 Mount Everest elevation survey mountaineering team successfully topped the world’s highest peak, Mount Everest.

  15 years ago, when our country measured the elevation of Mount Everest, the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) satellite measurement mainly relied on the GPS system of the United States. And this measurement, our country also referred to the four global satellite navigation systems of China Beidou, the United States GPS, the European Galileo, and the Russian Glonass, and mainly used the data of Beidou. Among them, the Beidou high-precision positioning equipment developed by the Shanghai Huatai Navigation Technology joint stock company played an important role in the measurement.

  The headquarters of China Test Navigation is located in Beidou Industrial Park, Xihongqiao, Qingpu District, Shanghai. There are more than 100 companies related to the Beidou industry. The upper, middle and lower reaches of the Beidou industry chain have formed close connections.

  From the application level, how is the Beidou industrial chain divided?

  It is understood that the "Beidou" industrial chain is mainly concentrated in the user segment of the Beidou system, divided into three links: upstream basic components, midstream end points, and downstream operation services. Among them, upstream basic components are mainly chips, boards, antennas and other basic components; midstream end points mainly refer to navigation and positioning devices that can receive "Beidou" signals; downstream operation services mainly refer to providing various basic services such as positioning, navigation, timing, and short message communication based on "Beidou" for government and enterprise users, industry users, service providers, and mass consumers.

  From providing services for the Asia-Pacific region to providing services for the world, Beidou realizes global networking, which not only means that Beidou has a wider coverage of services, but also benefits the entire industrial chain. The related industrial chain products have a set of support systems. The experience, stability and reliability of these products will be greatly improved, especially in the chip and end point industries.

  The R & D and production technology of Beidou chips is gradually maturing. The 28-nanometer chip supporting the "Beidou No. 3" system signal has been widely used in the field of Internet of Things and consumer electronics. The 22-nanometer dual-frequency positioning chip has met the market application conditions. The full-frequency integrated high-precision chip has been put into production, and the performance of Beidou chips has reached a new level. By the end of 2019, the shipment of domestic Beidou navigation chip modules has exceeded 100 million pieces, and the quarterly shipment has exceeded 10 million pieces. Beidou navigation chips, modules, high-precision boards and antennas have been exported to more than 100 countries and regions.

  In terms of end point products, taking smartphones as an example, in 2019, the total sales volume of domestic satellite navigation and positioning end point products exceeded 460 million units, of which the sales volume of smartphones reached 372 million units. As of the third quarter of 2019, more than 400 mobile phones that applied for network access in the Chinese market had positioning functions, of which nearly 300 supported Beidou positioning.

  The whole industrial chain of Beidou is making efforts, which not only benefits China but also serves the world. "In 2019, Beidou’s overseas application cooperation and trade exchanges have become more frequent. Domestic Beidou basic products have been exported to more than 120 countries and regions. Land rights confirmation, precision agriculture, smart construction, smart ports, etc. based on Beidou have been successfully applied in ASEAN, South Asia, Eastern Europe, West Asia, Africa and other places." Yu Xiancheng said.

  Aerospace Science and Technology Group Wuyuan Aerospace Stellar Company has developed more than 1,000 kinds of satellite application products so far, including Beidou navigation handheld, Beidou ship-borne end point, Beidou vehicle-mounted end point, etc. "In 2019, our ship-borne end point products successfully entered the Myanmar fishery market. So far, more than 1,000 sets of ship-borne end point products have been delivered. It not only provides services such as ship positioning supervision, no-fishing and no-navigation area management for Myanmar’s fishery supervision department, but also provides fishermen with positioning and navigation, catch reporting, text communication and alarm and rescue functions." The relevant person in charge of Aerospace Stellar told reporters.

  The completion of the Beidou system will greatly promote a new round of development of our country’s satellite navigation industry. The "2020 China Satellite Navigation and location-based service industry development white paper" (hereinafter referred to as the "white paper") shows that in 2019, the total output value of our country’s satellite navigation and location-based service industry reached 345 billion yuan, an increase of 14.4% over 2018. It is expected that the overall output value of the industry will exceed 400 billion yuan in 2020.

  Applications are limited only by imagination

  Signals are on the horizon, applied around.

  From clothing, food, housing, transportation to water, electricity, gas, heat, from agriculture, forestry and fisheries to disaster relief and mitigation… The Beidou satellite navigation system is deeply integrated into social life and penetrates into all aspects of economic and social development.

  Driving on the road, which road is smoother? Bus travel, how long will it take for the car to arrive at the station? Shared riding, how can I quickly find a bicycle? No matter what mode of transportation you choose, you can’t do without the Beidou satellite navigation system.

  The transportation industry is one of the largest users of the Beidou satellite navigation system. The Beidou system is widely used in key transportation process monitoring, highway infrastructure safety monitoring, port high-precision real-time dispatch monitoring and other fields. According to the data of the White Paper, by the end of 2019, more than 6.50 million operating vehicles, 40,000 express and postal vehicles, about 80,000 buses in 36 cities, more than 3,200 inland river navigation facilities, and more than 2,900 marine navigation facilities in China had applied the Beidou system, and built the world’s largest operating vehicle dynamic supervision system.

  "Where" and "what time" constitute the measurement coordinates of our daily work and life. Invisible and intangible time and space information is not only an indispensable important guarantee in people’s lives, but also an important infrastructure of the national economy.

  Intelligent port construction is regarded as an important means to enhance the core competitiveness of ports. Previously, the Ministry of Transport and other nine departments issued the "Guiding Opinions on Building World-Class Ports", proposing to build information infrastructure based on Beidou satellite navigation system and other technologies, and promote the automatic driving demonstration of trucks in the port area and special scenes.

  In Wuhan Huashan Port, rows of bridge cranes, ship cranes, and track cranes are arranged in sequence, and "flatbed trucks" about 15 meters long and with a maximum load of 75 tons are driving independently. A series of operations such as parking, packing, leaving, parking, and unloading are completely completed independently.

  This is a 5G intelligent unmanned container transfer truck that uses Beidou positioning. Compared with traditional container unmanned trucks that rely on "magnetic nails" on the ground to locate and move, the Beidou navigation system can provide higher-precision spatiotemporal information, transmit data through the 5G network, and enable the car to sense various objects within 200 meters, and the parking positioning accuracy is controlled within 5 centimeters.

  The accuracy is controlled within 5 centimeters – this is not the "limit" of Beidou. High-precision service is a major feature of Beidou. The service accuracy of traditional navigation systems is "meter-level" or even "10-meter-level", and higher-precision services are rarely opened to the civilian market. Beidou "has a national network", and with the help of more than 2,000 ground-based enhancement stations, the Beidou system has the ability to provide users with decimeter-level, centimeter-level and even millimeter-level positioning accuracy.

  When agriculture meets Beidou, sowing is more labor-saving, seedling emergence is more worry-free, and labor production efficiency is greatly improved. In the farmland of Dashetai Town, Wulateqian Banner, Bayannur City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, unmanned seeders are becoming increasingly "ordinary" from "rare things". Based on the Beidou positioning function, the seeders operate by themselves along the preset route. With this precise and scientific method, the sowing deviation per kilometer does not exceed 2 cm, and the seedling emergence rate per mu can be increased by 10%.

  According to statistics, the agricultural machinery automatic driving system based on the Beidou system has more than 20,000 sets, saving 50% of labor costs; the agricultural machinery operation supervision platform and the Internet of Things platform based on the Beidou system provide services for more than 100,000 sets of agricultural machinery equipment, greatly improving the operation management efficiency.

  When disaster warning meets Beidou, people are safer and property is guaranteed. Not long ago, in Leijiashan, Shimen County, Hunan Province, thanks to the "Beidou Satellite High-Precision Earth Disaster Monitoring and Early Warning System", villagers located in the landslide danger area were promptly transferred without any casualties. Through 24-hour real-time monitoring of the deformation and displacement of mountains, reservoirs, and rivers, Beidou provides early warning of possible landslides, subsidence, cracks, reservoirs, and river water levels to protect lives and reduce losses.

  On the special battlefield, Beidou also responded quickly and made every effort to fight. At the beginning of 2020, a battle against the COVID-19 epidemic was launched in Shenzhou, and Huoshen Mountain and Leishenshan Hospital rose from the ground. It was Beidou that achieved high-precision positioning and accurate plotting for complex terrain and landforms; the national "Qianxun Location" online drone platform can realize epidemic prevention operations such as drone precision spraying, providing it with high-precision data, and it is also Beidou; the real-time supervision and control of material transportation vehicles, intelligent machines will quickly send medical materials delivered to the hospital isolation area, and the support system behind it is still Beidou…

  The Beidou system collides with new technologies such as new generation 5G mobile communication, blockchain, Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, etc., builds an emerging industrial ecological chain with Beidou spatiotemporal information as the main content, and promotes the transformation of production and lifestyle and the continuous innovation of business models, which will create huge economic and social benefits.

  In the future, Beidou has infinite possibilities. As Academician Sun Jiadong, the first chief designer of Beidou satellite navigation system, once said, "Beidou’s application is only limited by human imagination". (Our reporters, Chai Yaxin, Fu Xiaojing)
