On November 18th, in the weaving workshop of Baoji Dadi Textile Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Dadi Textile) located in Zhouyuan Town, chencang district, workers were stepping up the production of products ordered for domestic sales. As a key foreign trade enterprise in Baoji, the company mainly focuses on cloth production and foreign trade sales, and its products sell well in more than 40 countries and regions such as the United States and South Korea.

Affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, the company’s foreign trade export orders were seriously affected this year. In order to achieve steady development, Dadi Textile changed its thinking and management mode, and actively explored the domestic market. Liu Hongbing, the general manager of the company, led the sales staff to participate in the exhibitions of fabric accessories all over the country non-stop, and signed large sales orders on the spot through frequent communication with local merchants, effectively alleviating the impact of the epidemic on the company’s exports. By the end of October, the company had achieved sales of 46 million yuan, and the annual sales revenue is expected to exceed 100 million yuan.

Support the development of products with the same line, standard and homogeneity.

Accelerate the market access for domestic sales; Make full use of online sales, live delivery, scene experience, etc. to promote the integration of online and offline development; Give full play to the role of special funds for foreign trade and economic development, and support foreign trade enterprises to participate in online and offline domestic exhibitions … Recently, the general office of the provincial government issued "Supporting Measures for Supporting Export Products to Domestic Sales" (hereinafter referred to as "Supporting Measures") to help Shaanxi foreign trade enterprises explore the domestic market, and strive to help foreign trade enterprises tide over the difficulties and stabilize the basic foreign trade market.

It doesn’t sound difficult to turn foreign trade into domestic sales, but it’s not easy to realize the transformation. Due to the different domestic and foreign trade market environment, foreign trade enterprises often face some specific difficulties in expanding the domestic market, including the difficulty in expanding sales channels, the difficulty in turning production lines and the difficulty in brand building.

"Foreign trade exports are mainly order-based sales. After switching to domestic sales, enterprises lack market sales channels and are unfamiliar with market access and sales rules. It is more difficult to win domestic orders." Wang Zhigang, general manager of Xi ‘an Shengxuerong Cashmere Products Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Shengxuerong) said frankly. At the same time, domestic and international standards are inconsistent, and foreign trade products that are sold domestically need to be adjusted and transformed according to domestic standards, otherwise they cannot be sold domestically. In addition, some foreign trade enterprises are not well-known in the independent brand market, and it is also difficult to enter the domestic high-quality retail channels.

Based on this, the "Supporting Measures" first focuses on supporting export products to enter the domestic market, including accelerating the market access for domestic sales; Promote the development of "same line, same standard and homogeneity"; Strengthen intellectual property protection, etc. For example, support enterprises to develop products with the same line and the same standard and homogeneity, and encourage more foreign trade enterprises to participate in the special action of "100 cities, 1,000 industries and 10,000 enterprises" to upgrade the standards; Carry out the evaluation of foreign trade enterprise standards "leaders" and create a number of foreign trade enterprise standards "leaders".

According to Tang Yugang, deputy director of the Provincial Department of Commerce, in the context of weak global external demand, the accelerated release of domestic demand provides opportunities for foreign trade enterprises to switch to domestic sales, and supporting marketable export products to expand the domestic market can not only help foreign trade enterprises tide over the difficulties, but also further stimulate domestic consumer demand.

Accurately meet domestic consumer demand

What is the first step to enter the domestic market? Many foreign trade enterprises have turned their attention to the e-commerce platform.

Pingli County Nuwa Tea Co., Ltd. is a key export enterprise in the county, and its products are exported to overseas markets such as Southeast Asia and Africa. This year, the company vigorously explored the domestic market, selling tea online through Taobao Tmall, Tik Tok and other platforms, and offline through the company’s direct stores in Xi ‘an, Ankang, Pingli and other places. Up to now, the sales have reached 30 million yuan.

On June 18th, 11 e-commerce and commerce circulation enterprises, including Xi ‘an Chengcheng Yulang, Alibaba, Supply and Marketing Daji and 51 Barter Network, docked with more than 40 foreign trade enterprises in the province, and many enterprises reached cooperation intentions. Thirteen foreign trade enterprises registered online stores on Alibaba platform to expand domestic sales.

In addition, our province also held a series of activities of exporting products to domestic market with the theme of "Foreign Trade Premium Collection Dressing up Pedestrian Street" in Datang City, Xi ‘an. 121 foreign trade export enterprises in the province participated in the exhibition, and the products on display involved more than 500 kinds of high-quality foreign trade export products in five categories, including consumer goods, specialty agricultural products, textiles and clothing. More than 100 domestic trade circulation enterprises and well-known e-commerce platforms participated in the procurement, and a live webcast room was set up to build domestic and foreign trade integration, online and offline for enterprises. During the event, nearly 30 enterprises inside and outside the province signed centralized contracts for export to domestic sales, with a contract amount of 70.4 million yuan.

"There are problems such as inconsistent product positioning at home and abroad and unstable domestic sales channels when exporting to domestic sales." Ling Tingting, director of the office of Pingli County Nvwa Tea Co., Ltd. said that products that sell well abroad may not sell well in the domestic market, and they should be adjusted by themselves according to the demand characteristics of the domestic market. In this regard, the "Supporting Measures" proposes to guide enterprises to accelerate the transformation of development mode, research and develop marketable domestic products through personalized customization and flexible production, create their own brands, and accurately meet the demand for consumption upgrading in the domestic market.

In order to alleviate the loss of a large number of cancelled foreign trade orders caused by the epidemic, Shengxuerong actively cooperated with domestic and foreign trade enterprises and online sales platforms to sell cashmere products, and on the other hand, customized cashmere products for customers through personalized customization to expand the domestic market. "We should enhance our innovation ability and enhance the core competitiveness of products exported to domestic market." Wang Zhigang said.

Do a good job in financing services and support.

Foreign trade plays an increasingly important role in the economic development of our province. In 2019, the total import and export volume of our province was 351.58 billion yuan, which directly led to employment of about 2 million people. In order to help export to domestic sales, our province’s financing, insurance and other policy support is increasing.

The "Supporting Measures" clearly stipulates that banks are encouraged to provide loans to foreign trade enterprises, and guarantee institutions provide guarantees for foreign trade enterprises’ loans, and provide risk compensation for qualified small and micro foreign trade enterprises’ loans; Implement various policies to reduce the RRR and interest rates, and guide financial institutions to focus on supporting foreign trade enterprises and projects that export to domestic sales; Support intellectual property pledge financing business of foreign trade enterprises and open a green channel for intellectual property pledge registration in Xi’ an agency; Support insurance institutions to carry out domestic trade credit insurance, and provide risk protection for credit sales formed in enterprise trade and labor activities.

Improve the level of facilitation of domestic sales. Xi ‘an Customs shall declare the processing trade enterprises that meet the requirements and can go through the domestic tax collection procedures in a centralized way before 15th of each month on the premise of not exceeding the validity period of the manual (account) or the deadline for verification, and adjust it to declare within 15th day after the end of each quarter at the latest.

"The series of measures introduced this time to support the export to domestic sales are of great help to enterprises, which provides a guarantee for enterprises to expand the domestic market and has strong operability." Liu Hongbing said.

The relevant person in charge of the Foreign Trade Department of the Provincial Department of Commerce said that it will give full play to the role of special funds for foreign trade and economic development, support business training, publicity and promotion, information services related to export-to-domestic sales, and support foreign trade enterprises to participate in online and offline domestic sales exhibitions; Subsidies will be given to the expenses of equipment procurement or transformation, self-owned brand construction and promotion, domestic trademark registration and qualification certification generated by enterprises affected by the epidemic.

Tang Yugang believes that encouraging financial institutions to increase credit support for foreign trade enterprises will help enterprises solve the problem of tight capital chain, thus helping enterprises tide over difficulties and recover and grow rapidly. "Only by retaining the green hills can we win the future." Tang Yugang said.

Most organs of the human body will get cancer.

I often hear about stomach cancer, liver cancer, lung cancer and kidney cancer, but the heart, as one of the most indispensable organs to maintain life, many people have never heard of "heart cancer". Why? Does the heart really not grow a tumor?

picture

one

The heart is not a "cancer-free zone"

Although cardiac tumors are rare, they still exist. The heart contains not only muscles, but also a large part of blood vessels.These muscles and blood vessels may grow evil.Sexual tumor.

There are two main types of cardiac tumors: one is primary cardiac tumor; The other is the secondary tumor that other organs spread to the heart.

oneprimary cardiac tumors

Research shows that the incidence of primary heart tumor can be as low as 0.0017%.

In other words,It is very rare that one or two out of every 100,000 people will have a heart tumor.

picture

Of these people, about 75% are benign, and only about 25% are malignant tumors. The most common are the following three:

① Myxoma of the heart: benign

The incidence accounts for about half of all cardiac tumors, mostly benign. It usually occurs in the atrium, but it can move between cardiac chambers and may also damage surrounding tissues.

If the lesion is serious and the operation is not performed in time, it will spread to the whole heart cavity and block the blood flow, causing stroke, blood clot and even myocardial infarction.

However, myxoma is easy to be treated by surgery and the prognosis is very good.

② Angiosarcoma and rhabdomyosarcoma: malignant.

The relationship between these two tumorsHigh degree of malignancyMake rapid progress66% ~ 89% of the patients had metastasis of lung, liver, bone and lymph nodes.

90% patients will die within 9-12 months after diagnosis if they are not removed quickly without surgery.

2Secondary cardiac tumor

Secondary cardiac tumor is the result of metastasis of malignant tumors in other adjacent organs.

Cancer cells such as melanoma, lung cancer, renal cancer, choriocarcinoma and breast cancer may transfer to the heart with blood, among whichMelanoma is the most common, accounting for about 50-70% of cardiac metastases.

Note: When cancer metastasizes to the heart, the prognosis of patients is usually poor and the survival rate is often low.

threeThere is a tumor in the heart,Symptoms are not obvious

① Dyspnea, palpitation, shortness of breath, and regional pain around the heart.

② It is easy to fatigue and chest tightness, accompanied by a series of nonspecific symptoms such as nausea, fever, weight loss and night sweats.

These symptoms are similar to those caused by other heart diseases, so it is difficult to diagnose heart tumors effectively.

But I still want to remind everyone that in the event of heart discomfort,It is best to go to the hospital immediately for a color Doppler echocardiography, supplemented by CT or magnetic resonance imaging scanning technology.

2

Why is the heart cancer rate so low?

oneCardiomyocytes rarely proliferate and divide.

From the pathogenesis of cancer, malignant tumor is the result of "genetic error" of genetic material DNA, including errors in DNA replication and transcription.

That is to say,Cancer usually occurs in cells with active metabolism and division.

The most important thing in the heart is cardiomyocytes, which are "terminally differentiated cells". That is, from birth to death, there is little proliferation and division, so there is basically no chance of mutation and error in the genes it contains, which ensures that the heart rarely suffers from cancer.

2There are no epithelial cells in the heart.

Gene mutation especially favors epithelial tissue.Therefore, all organs containing epithelial tissues are at risk of cancer, such as liver, kidney, digestive tract, respiratory tract, breast, prostate and so on.

However, organs without epithelial tissue often have a low probability of developing tumors, and there is no epithelial tissue in the heart.

threeRelated to heart function

The heart needs to beat day and night.

The metastasis of cancer cells needs to "camp" somewhere in the body, but the blood flow in the heart is too fast, and most cancer cells are taken away by the blood without a chance to "take root".

picture

fourThe heart and blood vessels form a closed blood circulation system.

The heart and blood vessels form aUnique closed circulation systemIt is not easy to be interfered by foreign harmful substances, especially carcinogens.

In addition, the heart is deeply hidden in the core of the body, and harmful substances entering the blood will be continuously purified through the liver, spleen and kidney to reduce the harm to the heart.

three

The heart is most afraid of these.

The proportion of heart cancer is low, but the risk of heart disease is high. At present, cardiovascular disease has surpassed cancer to become the "number one killer".

And here’s what the heart fears most about you:

oneAfraid you’ll gain weight

Obesity, on the one hand, willIncrease the burden on the heart, increase the risk of thrombosis and atherosclerosis, and then lead to coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, etc. On the other hand, fat can invade the heart and destroy the heart tissue and function.

Studies have shown that weight gain of 10% increases the risk of coronary heart disease by 38%; Weight gain is 20%, and the risk of coronary heart disease is 86%!

Therefore, it is better to control the body mass index (BMI) between 18.5 and 24.9.

picture

2Afraid of fatigue

There are many examples of "karoshi" in life.Fatigue will hurt the heart, easily lead to myocardial infarction, and more likely lead to heart failure.

When people are overworked, the body will secrete a lot of adrenaline and thyroxine, which can cause vasospasm, increase blood pressure, reduce the local blood supply in the heart, and easily induce cardiovascular diseases.

Therefore, whether it is work or study, we must pay attention to the combination of work and rest, ensure adequate sleep, and stay up less.

threeAfraid of being too excited

When excited, it will change the secretion of adrenal hormones in the human body, which will lead to tachycardia and increase the burden on the heart.

If the patient is complicated with diseases such as hypertension and arteriosclerosis,Emotional excitement is more likely to lead to blood vessel rupture, cerebral hemorrhage and even sudden death.

Therefore, you should manage your emotions and keep your mind at peace.

picture

fourFear of high salt

The main component of salt is sodium chloride. If sodium intake is too high, it will cause water and sodium retention in the body, increase the pressure in blood vessels, increase the resistance and increase the burden on the heart.

Studies have found that people who consume more than 13.7 grams of salt a day are twice as likely to suffer from heart failure as those who consume less than 6.8g grams a day.

soThe daily salt intake should not exceed 6g (about the amount of one mineral water bottle cap).

Central Bank Report: The prudent monetary policy in the first quarter was flexible, moderate, accurate and effective.

  Today (May 10th), the People’s Bank of China released the implementation report of China’s monetary policy in the first quarter, which pointed out that the prudent monetary policy in the first quarter was flexible, moderate, accurate and effective, which created a good monetary and financial environment for the economic recovery.

  First, maintain a reasonable and sufficient liquidity. At the beginning of the year, the RRR was lowered by 0.5 percentage point, and the medium-and long-term liquidity was released to exceed 1 trillion yuan. In addition, tools such as open market operation, medium-term lending facilities and refinancing were comprehensively used to maintain a reasonable and sufficient liquidity. Pay attention to guiding financial institutions to strengthen the balanced supply of credit and provide stable and sustainable financial support for the economy.

  The second is to promote the steady decline of financing costs. We will lower the interest rates of small loans and rediscounts for supporting agriculture by 0.25 percentage points, continue to promote the marketization of deposit interest rates, and guide the market quotation rate (LPR) of loans with a term of more than five years to fall by 0.25 percentage points in February.

  The third is to guide the adjustment and optimization of credit structure. We will set up a 500-billion-yuan refinancing for scientific and technological innovation and technological transformation, relax the criteria for identifying small and micro-credit loans, expand the scope of support tools for carbon emission reduction, and do a good job in the "five major articles" of finance.

  The fourth is to keep the exchange rate basically stable. Adhere to the decisive role of the market in the formation of the exchange rate, give full play to the adjustment function of the exchange rate to the macro-economy and balance of payments, strengthen the expected guidance, and prevent the risk of exchange rate overshoot.

  The fifth is to strengthen risk prevention and resolution. Improve financial risk monitoring and evaluation, and properly handle risks in key regions and key institutions. Promote the debt risk resolution of financial support financing platform in an orderly manner. Strengthen the construction of financial stability guarantee system.

  The report believes that the strategic opportunities and risk challenges facing China’s current economic development coexist. The kinetic energy of global economic recovery is divided, uncertainties such as monetary policy adjustment and geopolitical conflicts in developed economies still exist, and the domestic economy continues to pick up and still faces many challenges. We should also see that China’s stable economic foundation, many advantages, strong resilience and great potential, a good start and a good recovery are the basic characteristics and trends of the current economic operation, and we should enhance our confidence in doing a good job in economic work. In the next stage, the People’s Bank of China will maintain the stability of monetary policy, enhance the consistency of macro-policy orientation, strengthen countercyclical and cross-cyclical adjustment, increase support for the real economy, and effectively consolidate and enhance the positive trend of economic recovery.

  A prudent monetary policy should be flexible, moderate, accurate and effective. Reasonably grasp the relationship between the two largest financing markets of bonds and credit, guide the reasonable growth and balanced supply of credit, maintain reasonable and abundant liquidity, and keep the scale of social financing and money supply matching the expected targets of economic growth and price level. Taking maintaining price stability and promoting moderate price recovery as an important consideration to grasp monetary policy, strengthening policy coordination and keeping prices at a reasonable level. We will continue to deepen the interest rate marketization reform, give play to the role of the loan market quotation interest rate reform and the deposit interest rate marketization adjustment mechanism, and promote the steady decline of corporate financing and residents’ credit costs. Adhere to focus, reasonable and moderate, progress and retreat, and provide effective support for key areas and weak links such as inclusive finance, scientific and technological innovation and green development. Smooth the transmission mechanism of monetary policy and avoid the idling of funds. Adhere to a managed floating exchange rate system based on market supply and demand, with reference to a basket of currencies, give full play to the decisive role of the market in exchange rate formation, comprehensively implement policies and stabilize expectations, resolutely correct procyclical behaviors, prevent the market from forming unilateral expectations and strengthen itself, resolutely guard against the risk of exchange rate overshoot, and keep the RMB exchange rate basically stable at a reasonable and balanced level. Continue to effectively prevent and resolve risks in key areas, and resolutely hold the bottom line where systemic risks do not occur.

  (Hong Kong) said that for the market, the Fed’s interest rate cut seems to be getting farther and farther away. More importantly, even if the interest rate cut occurs in June, it is difficult for the market to predict that the next interest rate cut will take place step by step. The agency believes that if the US stock market falls sharply, will the Fed cut interest rates urgently? This is not an easy question to answer, but one thing is certain. The sharp decline in the stock market will bring about the rise of interest rate cut expectations, which will alleviate the market’s concerns about high interest rates to a certain extent. Generally speaking, US stocks need to wait and adjust.

  It is said that if the interest rate is not cut before the election, although the US stocks will fluctuate in the short term due to the expected difference, it also shows the resilience of the US economy, which is conducive to the US stocks to continue to form a siphon effect on the world, and then the US stocks can still see more before the election. Among commodities, gold is more sensitive to the Fed’s policies. Although there are some signs of desensitization in the near future, if the expectation of interest rate cuts continues to fail, short-term adjustment is still inevitable.

  Spot gold hit a new high.

  On April 11th, spot gold reached a record high of $2,377 per ounce at the end of the session.

  Nikki Kalls, head of metal strategy at MKS PAMP SA, said: "Overall, the trend of US bonds seems to indicate that the Fed is about to raise interest rates, while the trend of gold seems to indicate that the Fed is still in the mode of cutting interest rates, so any dovish remarks in the future will accelerate the bull market trend of gold."

  On that day, international futures also generally closed up. COMEX gold futures closed up 1.8% at $2,390.6 per ounce; COMEX silver futures closed up 1.76% at $28.545 an ounce.

Lectra 08 EM-P: Medium-sized SUV is preferred, with stable performance.

With a budget of 0.2 million/200 thousand, if you want a plug-in SUV, it is definitely worth seeing.

Price is no longer a problem. Compared with the guide price of 208,800-288,800 in 2023, it has already slipped to the price range of 170,000-23,000, and the discount in some areas even exceeds 35,000.

About 180 thousand landed, and the Pro version of 120km pure battery life is already very top. If you want to have a long battery life, you have to add money.


The sudden sudden death makes it a little scary to buy now.

It’s much more reassuring to buy it. Although it has seized the status of the Crown Prince, the Crown Car merged into Krypton has regained its status as a Crown Prince.

As a domestic mid-to-high-end sub-brand founded almost at the same time as "",the development of Link with mixed-race identity is obviously smoother, and the annual sales volume in 2023 exceeded 220,000. In the era of fuel vehicles,, and were also high-heat models.

Lingke 08At present, the best-selling model under the brand of Lectra has been on the market since September 2023, and its monthly sales are almost all over 5,000, with sales exceeding 10,000 in several months and 10,005 in November.

In November, in the sales list of medium-sized SUVs, Lectra 08 ranked 15th; The new energy medium-sized SUV, Lingke 08 ranked seventh, with quite good results.

In the sales list, those that overlap with the price of Link 08 are,, and those that belong to new energy sources.

Three-link Tang is really a little old. If it is not a hanging name, maybe Tang really can’t sell much.

Lingke 08 can be regarded as a bucket model in its own price range, and it has no obvious shortcomings. The ideal L6 is good, but it is more expensive. , 07 are also good, the starting price is slightly higher and the brand is still somewhat niche, so don’t buy it if you are afraid of risks; The starting price of Star Road Star Era ET is not expensive, but the sales volume is a little low.

Handsome appearance and beautiful interior.

08 changed to the brand-new design language of Lectra, retaining its classic split headlights, but the shape was changed from the original double strip to Y-shaped, and the taillights were also designed as penetrating horizontal strips; For the first time, frameless doors and frameless rearview mirrors were used, some of which were avant-garde.

It’s the first time to use the Flyme Auto car machine, and the physical buttons are cancelled. With two "Longying No.1" chips, the car machine has good fluency. 15.4-inch central control entertainment screen +12.3-inch intelligent LCD instrument, 92-inch unbounded AR-HUD, realizing intelligent cockpit experience.

At present, Pro and Halo versions can also give away 23-speaker Harman Kardon luxury audio with a value of 10,000 yuan.

Strong power, oil and electricity

08 is equipped with LECK EM-P super extended-range hybrid system, 1.5T+ motor +3-speed DHT scheme. The four-wheel drive version only takes 4.6 seconds to accelerate, and the two-wheel drive version accelerates more than 6 seconds.

The car provides 21kWh and 40kWh battery solutions, which can achieve pure battery life of 120 km and 245km respectively, but the difference between them is a bit large, only the difference between the 120kmHalo version and the 245kmHalo version with different battery capacity is as high as 20,000 yuan.

Ren Zhengfei gave Yu Chengdong a blow.

This article comes from WeChat WeChat official account:Alphabet list (id: wujicaijing), Author: Zhao Jinjie, brother Yu, title map from: vision china.

The three-year contract of not building a car is about to expire. Just as the outside world is speculating about when Huawei brand cars will be unveiled, Ren Zhengfei stood up and made a final decision: "In the next five years, Huawei will not build a car."

Xu Zhijun, the rotating chairman, confirmed this at the press conference of Huawei’s 2022 annual report on March 31, saying that the five-year period is because the longest validity period of all Huawei documents is only five years."After the five-year deadline has arrived, we will send another five years."

"Huawei’s strategy has not changed. We don’t build cars, help car companies build good cars, and become an incremental component supplier of intelligent networked electric vehicles." Regarding the replacement of Huawei’s brand, Xu Zhijun said, "Some of our departments or some individuals or some partners are abusing Huawei’s brand, and Huawei has been investigating."

In order to prevent Huawei’s brand influence, which has been built for more than 30 years, from being abused, Ren Zhengfei clearly stipulated in the document that Huawei logo can’t be used in combination with automobile trademarks, and "Huawei asks the world" and "HUAWEI AITO" are prohibited. "Huawei is starting to clean up and rectify flagship stores, sales stores and promotional materials that do not meet the requirements." Xu Zhijun said.

This is undoubtedly a blow to Yu Chengdong who wants to lead the radical development of automobile business through Huawei Eco-car. At the launch conference of Huawei P60 series a week ago, Yu Chengdong was still promoting the upcoming M5 advanced intelligent driving version with the help of the brand influence of "Huawei Jiejie".

On March 8 this year, under the leadership of Yu Chengdong, "AITO asking the world" was officially changed to "HUAWEI asking the world", which was regarded by the outside world as an important signal for Huawei to strengthen its leading position in the automobile business.

In the planning of Yu Chengdong, Huawei is the brand of "Huawei Eco-car". By uniting a number of car companies to build eco-alliances belonging to different price segments, Yu Chengdong hopes that Huawei’s auto business will be profitable in 2025.

It is worth noting that in February this year, in the poster released by AITO official blog, the logo was once changed from AITO to HUAWEI, and the external publicity speech was also changed from "Huawei’s deep empowerment" to "Huawei’s overall leadership".

This is not the first time that Ren Zhengfei has "stepped on the brakes" for Huawei’s auto business.

In 2018, after Huawei held its annual strategy meeting in Sanya, Hainan, and decided to "not build cars, but help car companies build good cars", the voice of wanting to build cars was still filled inside. At that time, Xu Zhijun, the rotating chairman of Huawei, was considered as the key to promote Huawei’s smart car BU from scratch. According to the news from the media science and technology forces, Xu Zhijun has been pushing Huawei to enter the automotive field, and even made no secret of his conflict with other executives and even Ren Zhengfei.

One month after Huawei BU was handed over to Yu Chengdong in October 2019, Ren Zhengfei issued the document "Resolution on the Management of Smart Car Parts Business", which made it clear that "whoever proposes to build a car in the future and interferes with the company can be transferred from his post and find another post", and gave a three-year ban period.

In July, 2021, Xu Zhijun revealed that only Yu Chengdong in Huawei was still unconvinced and still wanted to build a car. "But he only had one vote. For Huawei’s senior team, it is clear what to do and what not to do in the survival stage. "

Apart from stopping Yu Chengdong’s radical move, Huawei’s financial difficulties may also be one of the reasons why Ren Zhengfei is unwilling to build more cars.

The financial report shows that Huawei’s revenue in 2022 was 642.3 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of only 0.9%, and its net profit fell to 35.6 billion yuan, a year-on-year plunge of 68.7%.

Figure/Huawei Financial Report

"In 2023 and for a long time to come, sustainable survival and development will be the core proposition of Huawei’s strategy." Xu Zhijun said.

one

Huawei’s overall revenue is reaching a bottleneck. Since 2017, the growth of the carrier business that started from it has stagnated, with the year-on-year growth rate hovering between -4.03% and 3.8%. In 2022, Huawei achieved sales revenue of 284 billion yuan in the field of operator business, with a year-on-year increase of only 0.9%, which was basically the same.

The terminal business achieved a sales revenue of 214.5 billion yuan in 2022, down 11.9% year-on-year.

The only Huawei enterprise business that can be called substantial growth achieved sales revenue of 133.2 billion yuan, up 30.1% year-on-year, but it only accounted for 20.7% of the total revenue, and it has not yet become a new pillar to support Huawei’s stable development.

Faced with the slowdown of Huawei’s revenue growth, Ren Zhengfei gave an early warning as early as last August, and issued a document entitled "The management policy of the whole company should shift from the pursuit of scale to the pursuit of profit and cash flow", saying that based on the prediction that the global economy will continue to decline in the next decade, it is required to reduce or close those businesses that cannot generate value and profit, and link the promotion and upgrading of bonuses with the operating results, shouting the slogan "Let the chill pass to everyone".

As the only business that Huawei is still losing money, BU, led by Yu Chengdong, bears the brunt.According to the spirit of Ren Zhengfei’s instructions in the document, Huawei’s automobile business will no longer pursue a complete front, reduce the research budget, but also strengthen the closed-loop business and focus on several key components to make competitiveness.

For Ren Zhengfei’s series of adjustment measures, Wu Jianguo, former vice president of Huawei’s human resources, told the alphabet list that the weakening of the global consumer side will inevitably lead to the extension of Huawei’s cycle of coming back to life, which also means that Huawei needs to make greater adjustments than responding to the US crackdown. "(before 2022)It’s not so clear, but now it’s finally guaranteed.(The trend of economic recession)Ren Zhengfei dared to clearly stand up and adjust the strategy. "

Although Car BU is still regarded by Ren Zhengfei as a core project that can maintain strategic investment, under the guidance of the highest policy of bidding farewell to scale growth and turning to profit creation, Huawei’s automobile business obviously can no longer simply change scale with losses, and Yu Chengdong needs to find a balance between growth and making money.

What’s more, from the reality of the development of new car-making forces, except Tesla, the second new car-making company that can achieve annual profit has not yet been born in the world. Even Tesla has experienced high-intensity capital investment for more than ten years. Short-term high losses caused by going off to build a car in person, bothContrary to the pursuit of profit advocated by Ren Zhengfei, it is not allowed by Huawei’s current revenue reality..

If we continue to concentrate on building cars, more and more car companies may be wary of Huawei and choose to escape from Huawei.

GAC has become another car company that announced its "breakup" with Huawei.. On the evening of March 27th, Guangzhou Automobile Group announced that the company’s holding subsidiary Guangzhou Automobile Ai ‘an AH8 project was changed from joint development with Huawei to independent development.

This also means that since the two sides reached a joint car-building agreement in 2021, Huawei’s role has changed from the Huawei Inside model of deep cooperation to the most basic component supplier model.

Guangzhou Automobile Ai ‘an’s dissatisfaction with Huawei has long been traceable. At the 19th China Automobile Marketing Summit in August last year, Xiao Yong, deputy general manager of GAC Ai ‘an, once spoke out: "It may not only be batteries, but Huawei is also a big-name supplier, and its price is relatively high and uncontrolled. If we want to cooperate with Huawei, we will find that there is basically no bargaining power."

Xiao Yong said that while maintaining cooperation with Huawei, Guangzhou Automobile is carrying out self-research on battery technology and building a battery factory, and is striving to build a self-research system in terms of core technologies, domain controllers and intelligent cockpits. "Walking on two legs … In the future, 30% of Aeon will conduct self-research and 70% will choose market procurement and cooperation".

There is also SAIC that is far away from Huawei because of fear of losing its dominance.Chen Hong, the chairman of SAIC, who doesn’t want Huawei to be its "soul", made it clear at the 2021 shareholders’ meeting that SAIC can’t accept the overall solution of any supplier, and at most, it will maintain a cooperative relationship.

Even in the eyes of the outside world, Cyrus, which maintains the closest relationship with Huawei, has also started to stand on its own feet.

According to the interface report, Huawei has the initiative in three aspects: all closed-loop data, calibration of important vehicle parameters and main sales channels. The car data related to the world will be uploaded to Huawei first, and Celeste will have to ask Huawei for the demand first if necessary.

In order to enhance the control of data, Cyrus began to set up its own relevant team to collect and analyze data.

On March 30th, Chongqing Sailisi Landian Automobile Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Sailisi Group, officially released a brand-new new energy vehicle brand-Landian, and launched its first product, Landian E5, which no longer uses Huawei’s electric drive platform and HarmonyOS cockpit.

Instead, it is BYD’s Foday electric hybrid scheme, including 1.5L high-efficiency plug-in special engine and DHT300 electric hybrid system. On the car plane, only HUAWEI HiCar 3.0 is supported, and the HarmonyOS cockpit, which Huawei prides itself on, is no longer adopted by Cyrus.

Obviously, unlike the pursuit of "Chinese content" by the brand in the world, the brand of Blue Power cultivated by Cyrus itself is "going to Huawei".

According to an insider of Celestial, "the sales revenue of the brand in the world is incorporated into the financial report of Celestial listed companies, and Huawei is divided according to the supplier model. Although it seems that Huawei’s participation is very high, in fact, the sharing model is completely based on suppliers. " According to the previously released financial report, in 2022, Sailis expects to achieve a net loss of about 3.5 billion to 3.95 billion yuan, which is significantly larger than the loss of 1.824 billion yuan in the same period of last year, showing a situation of no increase in income.

The more you sell, the more you lose. It is precisely because in the process of cooperation with Huawei, Cyrus has invested excessive funds in R&D and manufacturing. This level of investment exceeds the traditional "foundry model". The bottomless investment makes the cooperation model between Cyrus and Huawei difficult to be copied for a time. The above-mentioned Celeste insiders revealed, "For Huawei, I definitely hope that like Celeste, I can work and actively cooperate, and I am willing to spend more and more money."

In addition, the current sales decline of the car industry has made the car companies waiting to see more hesitant. In December last year, the car industry was able to sell 10,134 cars, but in January this year, it dropped to 4,475 cars by diving. I thought this was affected by the Spring Festival holiday, but in February, the sales volume of the car industry further fell to 3,505 cars. According to insiders of Sailis, "HUAWEI recently changed AITO to Huawei. In fact, there is also a lot of sales pressure. This year, the whole situation has changed a little.(Huawei)Sales can’t go up, and we can’t even talk about going out for negotiations. "

After basically bidding farewell to the orders of new forces such as "Wei Xiaoli", it is obviously more important for Huawei BU, which is determined to be "Bosch" in the new energy era, to make a clear declaration of not making cars, and to win more high-quality cooperation from traditional car companies by dispelling the doubts of partners.

Compared with overweight automobile business, it is undoubtedly more urgent and important to maintain the stability of Huawei’s existing business.

Since it was included in the "Entity List" in May 2019, the United States has continuously stepped up its pressure on China enterprises including Huawei: in August 2022, the US Department of Commerce burned EDA software, ultra-wide band-gap semiconductor materials and pressure gain.(PGC)And other four technologies to implement new export controls; At the end of January this year, the United States reached an agreement with the Netherlands and Japan to restrict the export of advanced chip manufacturing equipment to China, further suppressing China’s chip industry chain; In February, Bloomberg, Reuters, etc. broke the news again that the US government is considering cutting off all contacts between American suppliers and Huawei, and stopping issuing licenses of key chip manufacturers such as Intel and Qualcomm, such as 4G, Wi-Fi 6/Wi-Fi 7, artificial intelligence, high-performance computing and cloud projects.

Once these measures are implemented, Huawei will completely cut off the supply from the part before 2023. In addition to the unsustainable development of Huawei’s terminal services such as mobile phones and notebooks, the high-order intelligent driving solution ADS, which is the mainstay of Huawei’s Hi model, will also lose its competitive advantage in the industry because it cannot obtain sustained and stable high-computing chips.

In order to break the technical blockade, Huawei launched a domestic alternative development campaign around three R&D production lines of hardware, software and chip development.

Combined with the recent speeches made by Ren Zhengfei and Xu Zhijun, Huawei has successively completed ERP.(Enterprise Resource Management)Software, and localization of EDA tools above 14nm.

"We completed the replacement development of 13,000+devices and the repeated board replacement development of 4,000+circuit boards in three years … until now, our circuit boards have stabilized because we have domestic parts." Ren Zhengfei said.

However, at the annual report conference on March 31, Xu Zhijun corrected the above information, saying that it was not three years, but it actually took Huawei nearly 10 years to complete some replacement work.

But for Huawei, which wants to return to the leading position in the industry, these alternatives are far from enough.Taking chips as an example, Apple, Samsung, etc. are already matching the 4nm process. For Huawei, which has just broken through the 14nm EDA tool, there are still many key process nodes such as 10nm, 7nm, 5nm, etc., and the smaller the process, the greater the R&D investment resources it consumes.

As Xu Zhijun said, "Although we have made a lot of breakthroughs in product development tools in recent years, we still face many challenges, and there are many product development tools that have not completely broken through, which requires us to work non-stop and redouble our efforts."

The self-developed software business has become one of Huawei’s key breakthrough directions in 2023.

However, Car BU, which was originally born to make up for the deficit caused by the decline of mobile phone business, is still the most promising sector for Huawei to become a new growth point at present, under the circumstance that Huawei’s two revenue pillar terminals BG and operator BG either have a decline in revenue or their revenue reaches a bottleneck.

This may also be the reason why Ren Zhengfei did not directly announce that he would never build a car. After waiting for five years, Huawei solved the problem of localization substitution in the field of software and hardware, and it may not be impossible to put the car on the table in person.

Do we need so many live broadcasts of football matches?

Indeed, it is really convenient for modern people to watch the game nowadays. Even more and more people watch the live broadcast of the game in a year, which adds up to less than watching short videos or scoring GIFs. Then the question is, do we still need so many live football matches?

How many people will watch so many games? I think most people just watch their home team’s games, or those particularly important games. There are too many things in life that are more important than football! When talking about this issue, a British fan said so.

Besides, as a China fan, how much time do you spend watching live games every week? What’s your opinion about the overload of live broadcast of the game? Please tell us together in the comments!

Not long ago, the Premier League officially announced:Before all the British fans can return to the stadium to watch the game(as early as May 17th), all events will continue to be broadcast live online in the UK.

This rule may not feel anything to overseas fans. But for British fans, it is a big event that can change their lives. After all, they haven’t watched the football match on TV on Saturday afternoon for decades.

This is due to a long-standing magical rule in Britain-3PM Blackout, which was negotiated and passed by the FA and the league.From 2: 45 pm to 5: 15 pm on Saturday, it is forbidden to broadcast any football match on TV.

The origin of 3pm blackout can be traced back to Bob Lord, Chairman of Burnley Club in 1964.(Bob Lord)A broadcast ban at Tevermore Stadium.In the view of Chairman Bao, the live TV broadcast is harmful to the club besides lowering the attendance rate of the stadium.

△ Center is Bob Lord, then chairman of Burnley Club.

Despite a lot of controversy, President Bao succeeded in persuading more and more clubs to accept it with his golden tongue.Television broadcast of demon theory.After unanimous negotiation, 3pm blackoutKick-off at three o’clock on Saturday afternoon is a tradition in English football.Not only has it become the rules of English clubs, but it has even been incorporated into the British broadcasting law, which makes it a criminal offence to broadcast football matches on TV on any Saturday afternoon in Britain.

However, due to the impact of the epidemic, all the games had to be broadcast online, and the question of whether the broadcast ban should be completely abolished was once again put on the focus of public discussion. But for British fans, although there are more games broadcast, the troubles of happiness have also come:With limited energy, so many games are broadcast live, it seems that I really can’t watch it!

How many people will watch so many games? I think most people just watch their home team’s games, or those particularly important games. There are too many things in life that are more important than football!

When talking about this issue, a British fan said so. His views also represent the voices of many fans.

In this regard, two columnists of The Athletic discussed through a podcast: Do we still need so many live football matches?

Too much broadcast of the game has made people tired of watching the game.

The host of Adam Hurrey The Athletic podcast, Football Cliches.

It has been a whole year since the special situation of being forced to have an empty match due to the epidemic, and the discussion on whether 3pm blackout should be cancelled has been going on for a long time. Therefore, it seems a natural thing to broadcast all the games in the current situation.

However, with the resumption of broadcasting, we gradually found that in the face of so many football matches, watching the ball every day is no longer a pleasure, and it has even become a psychological burden. 

As early as before the epidemic isolation intensified the daily competition in domestic broadcast of football matches, the broadcast of three matches on Super Sunday in Premier League was already a marathon experience for football fans: from pre-match comments to players’ warm-up, from goal playback to VAR slow-motion analysis, from betting recommendation to various advertisements ….. The broadcast of several consecutive football matches in one day is quite challenging for fans to watch and broadcast.

Whether the game involves their favorite team or their annoying team, or involves two teams that they don’t care about. 

△ A busy Premier League weekend screenshot from Tencent Sports APP

A Premier League fan in the UK, watching the game every Saturday, is probably like this:

The first game, kick-off at 12: 30 noon British time:

Ok, at noon, the game will start. Today’s noon match is a match in leicester city (generally speaking, leicester city or Southampton kick off earlier, as evidenced by the data). You will notice the long shadows in the stadium, which is definitely the last light environment that people want to face when watching the match or even playing football games.

In the end, leicester city won 2-0, but the attention of this game was completely covered up by the VAR controversy.

The second game, EnglishKick-off at 3: 00 pm national time:

All right! You’ve watched a game and got into shape. Although the commentators are still discussing the question of whether Team X is excellent or Team Y is rubbish (the conclusion is usually: emmm…… … I think both teams are similar).

The confrontation between the two sides in this game is Crystal Palace vs West Brom, which makes you immediately start to wonder if you should do something else while watching the ball. But you can’t go out when you think about the epidemic; I also think that due to the broadcasting law, there is no advertisement in the live broadcast of the game at 3 pm on Saturday ….. Well, let’s watch another game.

Unfortunately, Wilfrid Zaha, the thigh of Crystal Palace, was injured, and there was one less attraction in the game … It is said that the commentary of this game is famous, but the fans never seem to care about this.

Game 3, kick-off at 5: 30 pm UK time:

Well, it’s prime time for the broadcast, and the strong teams are going to play again. It may be a game in which Manchester City beat a team 4-0, or it may be a showdown between Arsenal and Newcastle. Under the full light of the stadium, the shiny stadium is quite attractive. In addition, there is nothing to watch on TV at this time, which may be the perfect time to sit on the sofa and watch the football match.

At the moment, Jamie Carragher (a former Liverpool player and now a famous football commentator) slides his hand on the screen, showing you all the details of the game you should know, which is great. In the end, it was an excellent game to watch, but it doesn’t seem to be time to put an end to today’s full football marathon … 

Game 4, kick-off at 8: 00 pm UK time:

COVID-19 epidemic, the end of the world, all these things on TV. To tell the truth, Premier League football really doesn’t need to broadcast four whole games a day, especially after 7: 30 pm. Now, you have watched three football matches, and your mind is obviously not on TV. On the sofa, you have already started to brush your mobile phone and saw more than a dozen popular short videos about the coach’s rage or the commentator’s passion for wheat. Although these videos have been forwarded by you, you will forget all about the video content in a short time.

This is often the daily life of a Premier League fan watching the game on weekends.

If the football match is broadcast all day, will I watch it? Yes, obviously, I will, but this is probably just my consciousness as a practitioner, but other fans may not appreciate the broadcast of so many games.

Indeed, as long as fans can’t watch the game offline, the Premier League has the responsibility to keep football in the spotlight through more broadcasts.However, don’t underestimate how tired fans will feel in such a marathon. Just for the sake of our poor and tired brains, I hope that the competitors and broadcasters will not regard the countermeasures in this special period as future decisions. 

The broadcast of the game is overloaded? I don’t think so at all!

Amitai Winehouse News Editor

It’s 11 o’clock on Saturday morning. You slept in, got up, had dinner, drank coffee and went out for a walk. Maybe you had a lesson with fitness coach Joe Wicks in front of the TV. So what’s next? I can’t eat any more food, and Zoom’s online test hasn’t started yet. For you, this day seems far away. 

However, you remember, there is a football match today! You looked at the live app on your mobile phone. At 12: 30, leicester city played against Liverpool; At 3: 00 pm, Crystal Palace played against Burnley; At 5: 30 pm, Manchester City played against Tottenham; At 8: 00 pm, Wolves play Chelsea!

As a fan, the distant Saturday was finally saved!

In this difficult period, there are not many interesting things happening. But we can watch all the matches in the Premier League. After watching the matches, you still have many things to do: chatting with friends on social software, playing Fan Texi in the Premier League, and brushing short sports videos … Is there anything more interesting for sports fans?

It can be said that playing football in the open field is meaningless, but online broadcasting can give the game real meaning.Indeed, not many people feel that it is necessary to watch a Southampton-Brighton game with dignity, but it is important that more games are broadcast, so that those Southampton fans and Brighton fans who want to watch this game have a proper way to watch this game.

The competition should belong to the public, not just the hundreds of people who are now allowed to enter the stadium.

In fact, the existence of streaming media just proves why the view that all sports events should not be broadcast is flawed. In any case, I am firmly opposed to the ban on Saturday afternoon games.There are always people who argue that this measure can protect the attendance rate of low-level leagues, but as early as 2018, EFL(English Football League)It has been announced that all Saturday 3: 00 pm games will be broadcast on its cooperative streaming media platform iFollow, and many international regions have also allowed to broadcast the games at this time.

What’s more, for fans who want to watch the game offline, it doesn’t matter whether the game is broadcast or not. But if you don’t want to go to the scene, you can certainly find a way to watch the game at home.

In other words, even if the game is not broadcast on the mainstream platforms with copyright such as Sky Sports, BT Sport, Amazon Prime and BBC One, people will find various ways to watch the game, which is not a problem for modern fans at all.Besides, the football club has fallen into financial difficulties, and we can at least make the broadcasting company happy for a while, so that the team’s copyright income can be guaranteed, and the more the better.

So to be honest, although there may be a problem of watching the game on TV, football is now facing a critical moment, so please forget the idea that any match should not be broadcast on TV. Please broadcast all the football matches for us, without stopping for a moment … The broadcast of the games that helped you through the boring time during the epidemic is also an important part of your life.

The above is the discussion between two British sports experts. So, as a China fan, how much time do you spend watching the game broadcast every week? What do you think of the view that the broadcast of the game is overloaded? Please tell us together in the comments!
