The taxi in the online leaked video

       CCTV News(Reporter, Li Wenwen) A taxi from the airport to the city originally did not exceed 131 yuan, but when six Guangzhou students came to Harbin for tourism, they were charged 550 yuan each for two taxis. After the incident was exposed, on December 15, the tourism department of Harbin launched the first compensation mechanism of the Tourism Integrity Fund, which paid students who suffered slaughter in advance.

  On December 14, six university students from Guangzhou took a flight to Harbin for a tour. The first stop was planned to be Central Street, a famous scenic spot in Harbin. The six people took two taxis from Harbin Taiping International Airport and were charged 550 yuan each after arriving at their destination. The ticket provided by the driver showed that the amount was 19 yuan. According to the taxi software, the distance was less than 40 kilometers, and the estimate did not exceed 131 yuan. The cost of 550 yuan is equivalent to arriving in Changchun City, Jilin Province.

  The student who was slaughtered later called to report the incident and exposed the incident online. In response to the students’ questions, a taxi driver said, "It can’t be wrong, don’t worry." "Regular taxis can’t pit you, they can’t hurt you."

  At 15:00 on December 15, the tourism department of Harbin City called some students to express their sincere apologies for their experience in taking a taxi in Harbin, and immediately launched the advance compensation mechanism of the Harbin Tourism Integrity Fund to make advance compensation. The tourism department of Harbin City reminded that the majority of tourists in the process of tourism in Harbin should immediately call the complaint number 0451-12345 if they encounter acts such as bullying and slaughtering customers whose legitimate rights and interests are infringed. The relevant departments will deal with it as soon as possible and effectively safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of tourists.

  In addition, the Harbin Municipal Transportation Bureau, after conducting an investigation and verification with the Daoli District Transportation Bureau, where Central Street is located, made the following decisions on the involved enterprises and drivers: revoke the right to operate the car involved and the license of the taxi driver involved.

  After being punished by the transportation department, the Harbin Daoli Public Security Bureau, in accordance with Article 49 of the Public Security Administration Punishment Law, gave 15 days of administrative detention to suspected fraud suspects Zhang and Fan and was fined 1,000 yuan.

  In response to the problems that have always existed in the taxi industry in Harbin, the Harbin Municipal Party Committee and Supervision Committee held a special project meeting on December 10 to crack down on "black taxis" and strictly investigate "umbrella companies". The meeting pointed out that the current Harbin is ushering in the peak period of ice and snow tourism, and tourists from all over the world are coming. The transportation department should carry out special projects to rectify the illegal operation of "black taxis"; the Municipal Disabled Persons’ Federation should review the handling of licenses for illegal operators with disability certificates; the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision should seriously investigate and punish the illegal operation of taxis as "umbrella companies" and government officials.

Can the delivery staff enter the community freely? Identity verification can be achieved, but the effect remains to be tested

  Our reporter, Peng Wenzhuo

  With the explosive growth of online ordering, it has become the norm for takeaways to enter and exit the community. However, wearing takeaway clothes as a "pass" to enter and exit the community has caused chaos one after another. News such as "men pretending to be takeaway brothers stealing" are common, making takeaway delivery pose a hidden danger to the safety of the community.

  Should the community prohibit takeaway personnel from entering and leaving?

  At 7 PM on January 1, Wang Pengfei had just trotted out of Changhewan Community in the northwest second ring road of Beijing and quickly boarded the electric car to start the next business, because he was delayed for ten minutes.

  Wang Pengfei, a deliveryman at a takeaway platform, said that many communities now do not allow delivery electric vehicles to drive in, so they can only park the car outside and run in by themselves. "There are several common situations where deliverymen deliver takeout to communities: if they are not allowed in, they run in or stuff it in the small fence door; sometimes they just wait for the predecessors to swipe their cards to follow in, or discuss with the doorman to register; and the takeout is placed in the reception hall, and the owner goes downstairs to get it himself."

  For the increasingly strict management system of the community, Wang Pengfei is a little helpless: sometimes because the delivery of food on this road is timed out, this order is equivalent to nothing. For customers, in hot or cold weather, ordering takeout is convenient. If it cannot be delivered directly to the door, satisfaction will decline. In addition, many people usually dress casually at home, and they have to change clothes specially for a takeaway, they will feel inconvenient.

  A pizza brand takeaway worker summed up a food delivery experience to reporters: in general old communities, takeaway delivery is more casual, and you can basically enter with a single word; for commercial housing communities, it is common for takeaway workers to register at the door; for some luxury houses, takeaway workers are generally denied entry. There are also well-managed properties that are confirmed by video phone and then released, and there is a better identity verification mechanism.

  Should the delivery staff be prohibited from entering and leaving the community? Different owners have different views on this. Some people believe that some outsiders pretend to be delivery staff and put up advertisements in the corridors, elevators and other places of the community, and some people knock on the wrong door, etc., to let strangers enter the community. There are also owners who believe that "no entry" makes life inconvenient, and the community should eliminate hidden dangers by strengthening security and identity verification.

  Takeaway clothing can be bought online for safety hazards

  In July last year, a food delivery platform in Chengdu clashed with community security guards, causing a group fight. According to a statement released by Ping An Wenjiang, the point of conflict between the food delivery platform and security guards lies in the management regulations for food delivery personnel entering and leaving the community.

  This reflects the current contradictions between the property and the delivery staff in many places. It is understood that the regulations such as "delivery is not allowed into the community" are not a whim. The news of "man pretending to be a delivery brother to steal" "borrowing delivery points to draw theft routes" "delivery staff burglary" is not uncommon.

  In an interview with reporters, security guards in several neighborhoods on East Jiaotong Road in Beijing believed that the overalls explained the purpose of the visit. The delivery staff are all wearing uniforms, and the clothes they wear on the cars they ride are marked, so they can tell what they are doing at a glance. If the delivery staff are asked to register, they may not cooperate in order to rush for time; if they are not allowed to enter the community, the owners may complain to the property company, so they usually ask the delivery staff who are not wearing delivery clothes to register.

  For many communities, the delivery staff’s uniforms function as "access cards", becoming "passes" for entering and leaving some communities, but those wearing delivery clothes are not necessarily the real delivery staff.

  In August last year, Beijing’s Fengtai district cracked a case of "fake food delivery real theft". According to the confession of the alleged offender, he used to be a delivery worker, but he quit his job because he was tired and had no means of livelihood. So he used a private stash of delivery work clothes as cover, and wandered around the residential area late at night, repeatedly smashing the contents of roadside vehicles.

  According to regulations, only formal food delivery personnel can obtain takeaway clothes, and they need to register on the platform and provide ID cards, health certificates and other documents. The takeaway platform will not issue takeaway clothes to part-time delivery people, and the departing staff must hand over the clothes.

  However, according to media reports, a number of takeaway platforms are selling takeaway clothes online. The reporter logged into a shopping website and entered "takeaway work clothes". The page that popped up had takeaway clothes from a number of takeaway platforms, with prices ranging from tens to hundreds of yuan. In response, a takeaway platform responded that in response to the chaos of takeaway rider clothes, they have communicated with online shopping platforms, hoping that relevant online shopping platforms can remove takeaway clothes from the shelves as soon as possible.

  Entering the community can achieve identity verification, but the effect remains to be tested

  How to prevent criminals wearing takeaway clothes from entering the community? This has become a pain point in many community management.

  Recently, a program called "Community Guard" came out, which aims to solve the dilemma of "last 100 meters" of takeaway delivery: when a takeaway enters the community, the security guard opens the Mini Program or scans its QR code, which can verify the identity and order status in one second, and track its location after entering the community in real time.

  According to the person in charge of the product, this Mini Program has functions such as identity verification, access management, and track tracking. It has been connected to some property communities in Beijing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and other cities, and will be applied to shopping malls, hospitals, etc. In the future, it will also be applied to shopping malls, hospitals, etc. After using it, a delivery staff said, "In the past, it took at least 2 to 3 minutes to enter the community to sign, register, and show the certificate. Now it takes’seconds’ to scan with the Mini Program, which saves time and effort."

  For consumers, the opening of identity verification allows takeout to be delivered to their homes, saving waiting time. For security guards, they can monitor the dynamics of takeout personnel in real time, strengthen security management, and reduce security risks. But the actual effect remains to be considered.

  A takeaway worker who ran an order in the area of Jintai Road in Chaoyang District, Beijing, worried that many properties would not necessarily cooperate with such identity verification. "Many security guards ignore the takeaway staff, and you don’t open the door if you call him, so you ask him to take the initiative to scan the code to monitor you, which may not be realized."

  Then how can we prevent criminals posing as food delivery personnel? A takeaway platform staff member said: First of all, we must observe that the delivery staff’s vehicle must be equipped with a delivery box; secondly, we must learn to distinguish. Generally, the delivery staff will not wander between floors when delivering food, and will basically complete the delivery task by trotting. If you encounter suspicious personnel, you should call the police as soon as possible.

  And if the delivery staff committed illegal acts during the delivery process, the staff said that once the delivery staff was complained by consumers and the complaint was true, the delivery platform would blacklist them and share credit information with other delivery platforms.

Unmanned shelves are no longer in the limelight, is this the opportunity that "big guy" Ele.me finally got?

In just half a year, from the limelight in the capital markets to the frequent news of bankruptcy, withdrawal, and acquisition. The start-up company in the field of office unmanned shelves does not seem to have a good start in the spring of 2018.
The ability to circle a specific group of people in the office and their time is an important reason for companies that have made efforts in the field of unmanned shelves to bet on this track. But it turns out that the rhythm of point laying, offline BD, operation and maintenance of supply chain and logistics, any failure of any link, may frustrate this "not sexy" business in itself.
What is the attitude of large companies that have not moved much before? At least for now, a group of large companies that are ready to make efforts in the new retail field have not been deterred by the temporary chaos in the industry. Last September, it was reported that Ele.me had incubated the new retail division internally to focus on unmanned shelves.
At present, according to the news leaked by Ele.me, the project is finally named Ele.me Now, and a dedicated team is equipped for this independent brand: CEO Chen Qi was the first supply chain leader of Alibaba’s retail business department, which is also the famous Ali supply department. According to Chen Qi, Ele.me Now has achieved operating profitability in Shanghai, the first city it has settled in, after its launch.
This industry that was once on the cutting edge is rapidly moving towards consolidation. In those crazy days last year, Ele.me Now’s footsteps did not seem so aggressive. Is this area that needs to be refined and operated an opportunity for big companies?
 Prior to this, in addition to the main business of catering takeaway on the Ele.me platform, there have always been retail categories such as snacks, fruits, beverages, flowers, and medicine. In December 2016, the Ele.me new retail division was established. Chen Qi said that the current retail GMV accounts for about 5% to 10% of the total GMV.
According to a research report released by Coatue in 2017, the GMV of Ele.me reached 6.26 billion US dollars. If you use this data to estimate, the GMV of Ele.me’s retail business is about 3-600 million US dollars. Although the proportion is not high, as a business that only started in 2016, the demand and growth are real.
On this basis, compared with the hot start-up companies, Ele.me’s main logic for entering this battlefield is to hope that the office scene will complement and synergize the company’s main takeaway business. Of course, with the company’s original supply chain and logistics resources to support, it also means that Ele.me Now’s business is more confident.
Among them, the supply chain system behind Ele.me new retail BU is responsible for the B2B trading platform Youcai, which has been online since 2016. Youcai provides merchants with drinks, rice noodles, grain and oil, fresh fruits and other categories through the control of the upstream supply chain. At present, Youcai has established cooperation with 5,000 suppliers, including Coca-Cola, COFCO, Yihai Kerry and other brands. This part of the supplier accounts for about 1/3, and the remaining 2/3 of the brand Youcai is also a first-level wholesaler. Youcai also has joint warehousing and distribution systems in many major cities, which can provide distribution from urban Okura to small trunk lines.

Ele. Me Now Unmanned Shelf

At the beginning of sorting out whether to open an unmanned shelf business, Chen Qi and the management of Ele.me believed that Youcai had already entered large-scale operation, and the large warehouses that had been established in various cities in the process could provide support for the expansion of Ele.me shelves. Chen Qi said: "We are not building a system from scratch, but directly paying for it, and with a scale support, our rates will also have better savings."
On the other hand, Ele.me has established a complete hummingbird distribution system, which can also save the cost of unmanned shelves on a large scale. Previously, most start-up companies in the industry were solving distribution and exchange needs through self-construction + outsourcing and front warehouses. There are also companies like Gorilla Convenience and Convenience Bee, which use convenience stores as front warehouses. But it is not easy to establish and manage such a system from scratch. Unlike the traditional logistics where four links and one delivery and flash delivery are located, the logistics distribution of shelf goods shuttles through the middle of office buildings, which is equivalent to entering the end of the city. If the distribution density is not enough, the replenishment cost is very high.
The current common way to replenish goods is by renting Jinbei trucks to tour the city. Chen Qi and his team found that these Jinbei trucks stop every hour, and each time they stop, they need at least 20-35 minutes of waiting time. They can replenish goods at up to 1.5 points, and the value of a single replenishment is about 200-300 yuan. If you add warehouse leasing, vehicle leasing, and labor costs, Chen Qi calculates that the cost of replenishing goods at a single point is around 30 yuan.
Ele.me Now’s approach is to use the hummingbird stations where the riders rest and train as transit points. During times when takeout orders are not too intensive, replenishment vehicles will come to the hummingbird stations all over the city and summon 10-15 riders to skim the goods. The goods are marked with the delivery address and specific needs. Each rider can carry 1-2 points of goods. This is equivalent to turning the distribution system into a radial mesh, and the Jinbei car can support more than 20 points of post-need replenishment per stop.
"This is equivalent to turning the original human resources tandem model into the concurrency of multiple people in their spare time." Chen Qi said that overall, the single replenishment cost of Ele.me Now can be reduced to 16 yuan, as low as 45% of the industry competition, and the comprehensive gross profit is higher than 30%.
In this business that involves too many chains, Chen Qi believes that the biggest advantage of Ele.me is the scale effect that has been established long ago, which can also make this business "throttling". "Including Hummingbird and Youcai, because of the large scale, the management costs can be shared, and the cost structure is better."
According to the data given by Ele.me NOW, there are currently 150-2 million valuable points in the country that are worth laying unmanned shelves. Although the industry has experienced a period of rapid development some time ago, the top players are only concentrated in about 100,000 points. Therefore, in Chen Qi’s opinion, the market space is very large, and the industry is also in a very early stage.
In January 2018, Ele.me began to use the hummingbird system to support the operation of unmanned shelves in a small area in Shanghai. By March, the Shanghai area had all switched to the hummingbird-based replenishment mode. Chen Qi’s plan is to run in for a while and soon replicate this model to other cities across the country.
But the early plan is not to expand without restraint. Ele.me Now cares more about "coordination". At present, the service of food covers T30 cities, which is the 30 cities with the largest takeaway transaction volume of Ele.me, and Ele.me Now will also carry out urban expansion according to this scale and idea. "In the near future, we will not rashly expand cities outside T30. This is essentially a retail business, but we should deepen the density of the single area."
From a strategic perspective, Ele.me’s entry into the unmanned shelves is obviously a supplement to the current main business takeaway market. Although compared with start-up companies, the capital reserves of large companies are relatively loose, but retail is generally a relatively thin profit business. If you blindly expand and launch a subsidy war, if you do not cooperate with refined operations, you will fall into the quagmire of burning money.
"It’s not a blitz, it should be a protracted battle," Chen Qi said.
Ele.me Now CEO Chen Qi was the first head of Alibaba’s China Supply Department
Therefore, while "throttling" operating costs, finding an "open-source" way to achieve profitability as soon as possible is also an issue that operators must consider.
Chen Qi said that Ele.me has been able to achieve profitability in Shanghai single-city outlets. In addition to retail business and back-end gross profit, advertising and traffic can also generate revenue. Since Ele.me’s own brand effect is already very strong, many FMCG or shopping mall brands have already been its advertisers. Previously, Ele.me has reached cooperation with these customers through Ele.me APP exposure, or promotion through Youcai platform, as well as offline marketing, and unmanned shelves have become a new media buying channel. More importantly, Ele.me Now can combine user data that overlap office scene users and takeaway business to provide brands with granularity and finer user portraits to achieve the best delivery effect.
In addition to advertising, Ele.me Now also hopes to monetize offline traffic online. According to Ele.me Now statistics, stable customers currently place orders three times a week, and the transaction frequency and stickiness are very considerable. Chen Qi has started to try group buying business to direct offline customers to online. "For example, if you buy cherries for 20 yuan on the shelf, we will guide users to buy a whole box of cherries online at a unit price of 50 or 60% off. The unit price of customers is higher, which can also drive GMV."
In contrast to Meituan’s expansion strategy of constantly opening up new battlefields, Ele.me CEO Zhang Xuhao has always emphasized that Ele.me’s mission is to "focus and focus". So after ten years of establishment, Ele.me has extended from takeaway platform to retail and established new retail BU, which is the strategy of this strategy. Chen Qi said, "Our core business model is to help merchants on the platform do O2O online business, so whether it is unmanned shelves or the entire Ele.me new retail BU, we want to achieve this goal."

In March this year, it was reported that Ali would spend a lot of money to acquire Ele.me and integrate it with word-of-mouth to become an important chain in its new retail business. In 2017, a start-up company asserted that the "war" on unmanned shelves would be won and lost in 2018. In the current situation, the big man with more resources and good at "opening up sources and cutting costs" may enter the market late, but he may have longer vitality.

Development and Reform Commission: Beijing and other seven provinces and cities will not adjust the price of passenger taxis for the time being

     

    [Content overview]Since November 1st, the ex-factory price of domestic gasoline and diesel has increased by 500 yuan per ton respectively, which has a great impact on the transportation industry. According to the characteristics of different transportation industries and local actual conditions, local price authorities have actively studied and taken measures to timely channel the impact of refined oil price adjustment.


    China News Service, November 15th, according to the website of the National Development and Reform Commission, since November 1st, the ex-factory prices of domestic gasoline and diesel have increased by 500 yuan per ton, which has a great impact on the transportation industry. According to the characteristics of different transportation industries and local actual conditions, local price authorities have actively studied and taken measures to timely ease the impact of refined oil price adjustment.


    First, road passenger transportation prices


    Nine provinces and municipalities, including Hebei, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Anhui, Fujian, Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou and Shaanxi, have taken measures to reduce prices. Among them, Guizhou has increased the fuel surcharge standard by 0.004 yuan per person-kilometer, Hunan has increased the fuel surcharge standard by 0.5 yuan per person-kilometer, Fujian has introduced a fuel surcharge of 0.01 yuan per person-kilometer, and Shaanxi has introduced a fuel surcharge of 1 yuan per person-kilometer. Hebei, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Anhui and Jiangxi have issued documents or according to the existing oil transportation linkage mechanism, allowing cities or transportation enterprises to appropriately adjust the road passenger transportation price within the floating range of the government’s benchmark price according to the actual situation.


    Ten provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, including Inner Mongolia, Jilin, Jiangsu, Shandong, Henan, Hainan, Chongqing, Yunnan, Gansu and Xinjiang, plan to adopt price-plus measures. Among them, Yunnan plans to implement a fuel surcharge plan on November 23. Shandong, Henan, Hainan, Chongqing and Gansu plan to study and approve the collection of fuel surcharges. Jilin and Inner Mongolia plan to issue documents requiring all cities and states to adjust freight rates or introduce fuel surcharge plans according to the actual situation in accordance with the established linkage plan. Some regions in Jiangsu and Xinjiang consider choosing an opportunity to increase freight rates.


    Six provinces and municipalities including Tianjin, Shanxi, Heilongjiang, Hubei, Sichuan and Qinghai have explicitly not adjusted freight rates this time. Among them, Heilongjiang, Hubei and Sichuan have introduced fuel additions to passenger fares last year, which have eased the pressure of rising oil prices to a certain extent, and will not increase fares this time. Tianjin, Shanxi and Qinghai also do not plan to adjust road passenger fares for the time being.


    Due to the intense competition in road passenger transportation in Liaoning and Guangdong provinces, enterprises are concerned that the increase in fares will affect the passenger source, so they do not recommend adjusting fares. At present, road passenger fares are relatively stable, and the price authorities are strengthening market freight monitoring. Whether to increase fuel surcharges is still being studied.


    The price of passenger transport in Tibet and Ningxia is regulated by the market, and it is understood that passenger transport companies plan to increase fares by 10-15%.


    The fares set by the provinces opposite Beijing’s highway passenger transportation will be implemented in accordance with the policies determined by the relevant provinces.


    Taxi fare


    Six provinces including Hebei, Anhui, Fujian, Henan, Guangdong and Guizhou have formulated measures to reduce the price of refined oil. Documents are being drafted or have been issued to allow cities to raise taxi prices, raise the starting price or charge fuel surcharges according to the linkage mechanism of oil transportation prices to ease the contradiction between refined oil prices. The Xiamen Price Bureau of Fujian has reported the plan to collect fuel surcharges to the municipal government, waiting for approval.


    Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, Heilongjiang, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Shandong, Hubei, Chongqing, Sichuan, Yunnan, Shaanxi, Gansu, Qinghai and other 13 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government plan to introduce price-matching measures. Among them, Inner Mongolia, Heilongjiang, Shandong, Hubei, Yunnan, Gansu, Qinghai and other places plan to require all localities to adjust freight rates or charge fuel surcharges in the form of easing conflicting prices of taxi freight rates in accordance with existing policies and local conditions. The specific issue of taxi price adjustment is decided by the localities. Some cities in Zhejiang plan to adjust taxi freight rates or introduce fuel surcharges in the near future. Shanghai is formulating measures and studying and calculating the linkage plan in accordance with the established linkage plan. Sichuan and Shaanxi plan to uniformly charge taxis for fuel surcharges after adjusting natural gas prices at the end of the year or early next year. Shanxi province plans to start a linkage mechanism for taxi fuel prices in 2008. Chongqing is observing market reactions and studying freight rate reform plans.


    The prices of passenger taxis and Shanghai freight taxis in seven provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, including Beijing, Tianjin, Hunan, Guangxi, Hainan, Tibet and Ningxia, will not be adjusted this time. Among them, passenger taxis in Beijing, Tianjin, Hainan and Ningxia and Shanghai freight taxis will not be adjusted for the time being considering the market’s affordability. Hunan and Guangxi have introduced fuel surcharges for taxis in 2006. This time, the existing fuel surcharge plan will be implemented, and no additional fuel surcharges will be charged. Tibet has introduced a measure to reduce road maintenance fees by 30 yuan per month for taxis in the second two months of this year, without adjusting the freight rate.


    Liaoning, Jilin, Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Xinjiang and other five provinces and autonomous regions reported that taxi drivers are currently calm, and the price authorities plan to strengthen monitoring and decide on further measures after observing the market.


    III. Urban public transportation and rural public transportation prices


    In strict accordance with relevant state regulations, all localities will distribute state subsidies for urban public transportation and rural public transportation to relevant business units to make up for the impact of rising refined oil products on cost increases and maintain the stability of urban public transportation and rural public transportation prices.


    IV. Local railway freight rates


    Hunan Province has adjusted local railway freight rates according to the national railway practice.


    Local railway enterprises in Hebei, Guangdong, Guangxi and other provinces and autonomous regions have reported that they have been greatly affected by the rise in oil prices, and require appropriate increases in local railway freight rates in accordance with the national railway practice.


    V. Road freight and water freight prices


    Road freight and water freight rates have been subject to market-adjusted prices, and the price level is mainly determined by market supply and demand. However, in the long run, if the price of refined oil rises sharply or remains high for a long time, it is difficult for operating companies to digest the cost increase factors, and they will still pass the burden downstream by increasing freight rates. At present, the freight rates of some road freight lines in Zhejiang have risen.


    VI. Financial subsidies


    Local price authorities have actively cooperated with relevant departments to implement financial subsidy measures. At present, central financial subsidies in Tianjin, Heilongjiang, Jiangxi, Guangdong, Yunnan, Gansu, Ningxia, Qinghai, Xinjiang and other places have been in place. All localities have started to formulate subsidy distribution plans or have allocated subsidies to industry authorities. All departments have actively implemented subsidy distribution work.


    In addition to providing financial subsidies for urban public transportation and rural passenger transportation according to regulations, Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Anhui, Fujian, Hubei, Ningxia, Qinghai and other places have also introduced subsidy measures for taxis. Among them, Beijing requires the government, enterprises and drivers to jointly bear the impact of the rise in oil prices in a ratio of 4:4:2, and the government and enterprises will jointly give drivers a monthly subsidy of 110 yuan. Before the implementation of the linkage mechanism in Shanghai, the government and enterprises will give temporary subsidies to taxi drivers respectively. Anhui Provincial Finance provided 11 million yuan to subsidize taxis. Ningxia gave a monthly government subsidy of 246 yuan per taxi. Fujian, Hubei and Qinghai asked cities and counties to give temporary subsidies to taxis. Tianjin’s finance department is calculating the amount of subsidies and will issue them before the end of the year.


    VII. Main problems existing


    At present, the main problems encountered by local price authorities in guiding freight contradictions are:


    For example, Guangzhou and other regions reflect that taxi prices are already relatively high, and it is easy to lose taxi passengers and increase drivers’ operational difficulties by adjusting taxi transportation prices or increasing fuel surcharges. For example, some regions plan to channel the impact of rising oil prices on road passenger transportation within the floating range of government-guided prices, but due to intense market competition, the actual fare level is difficult to increase, and operators bear all the impact of rising oil prices.


    The second is that the amount of subsidies for rural road and rural waterway passenger transportation is insufficient. Some places report that rural road and waterway passenger transportation service targets are basically farmers, and their affordability is weak. It is difficult to channel the cost increase caused by the increase in fuel prices through raising fares. The state also requires this part of the freight price to remain stable. However, the central government only subsidizes 50% of the cost increase. It is very difficult to raise and implement local financial matching subsidies, and operators are facing difficulties. The operators of inter-island waterway passenger transportation in Zhejiang Province have put forward price adjustment requirements to the government.


    Third, the increase in the price of refined oil has increased the difficulty of stabilizing the Spring Festival fares. During the 2007 Spring Festival travel period, measures were introduced that did not achieve good results in road passenger fares, which were widely welcomed by all walks of life. After the adjustment of refined oil prices, operator costs have generally increased, and it is difficult for Spring Festival fares in 2008 to remain at the 2007 level.


    In response to the above-mentioned problems, the price authorities at all levels should continue to take into account the actual local situation, under the unified leadership of the local party committee and government, work closely with relevant departments, and take comprehensive measures to reduce the burden on operators, resolve the impact of rising refined oil prices on the transportation industry, strictly control the increase in transportation prices, and maintain industry and social stability.

"The King of New Comedy" Zhou Xingchi on the use of Wang Baoqiang: He is a superstar

1905 movie network news On the afternoon of January 11, the movie "The New King of Comedy" held a press conference in Beijing. In addition to announcing the theme song "Gale" sung by the Gale Girls Limited Group, director Stephen Chow and star Wang Baoqiang also came to the scene. On why Wang Baoqiang was used in the movie, Zhou Xingchi said: "I want to find a big star, and I have the experience of running through the dragon trap. So it can only be Mr. Wang."

 

The press conference was opened by a limited group of "Gale Girls" selected by Zhou Xingchi, including Li Zixuan and Liu Renyu. When it came to why they were selected, Zhou Xingchi said that these people have the experience of participating in the competition and failing. Speaking of the rise, Zhou Xingchi also learned the "square dance" dance moves in the MV from Li Zixuan on the spot. After a set of moves, Zhou Xingchi boasted: "I am still quite talented."

 

This time, "The New King of Comedy" is still a walk-on story. Zhou Xingchi said that it is in the same direction as "The King of Comedy". He revealed that because of this reason, he wanted to find a big star with walk-on experience: "Except for Mr. Wang (Baoqiang), I can’t think of anyone else. He is both a superstar and has run a dragon trap." Wang Baoqiang immediately said next to him: "So I am a dragon trap superstar."

 

Although the two did not disclose the plot of the film at the scene, Wang Baoqiang said that he is the heroine of the film. Speaking of the cooperation with Zhou Xingchi, Wang Baoqiang said: "He has high requirements for every actor in the scene. He will communicate with the actors, give the actors a lot of inspiration, and through guidance, you will not have a sense of urgency."

 

The pair recalled a scene in which Wang Baoqiang had sex with a foreign actor. Wang Baoqiang said that 50 scenes were taken in one day, breaking the record since his acting. Zhou Xingchi said that the repetition of so many scenes was because the two were stuck in language. Wang Baoqiang said: "I think as an actor, I am very lucky. Not all directors can give you so many opportunities, so much time, so many times for you to act again and again."

 

As the classic line of "King of Comedy", "Work hard! Fight!" appeared frequently on the scene. Zhou Xingchi not only gave this sentence to "Gale Girl", but Gale Girl also shouted this sentence to all dream chasers. The movie "New King of Comedy" will be officially released on February 5, 2019.


NIO received hundreds of millions of dollars in financing led by Tencent and Baidu

Text | origin

On March 15th late night news, the Internet emerging car company NIO completed hundreds of millions of dollars in financing, according to sources, the amount is as high as 600 million US dollars. Smart things to NIO related people to verify, the other side said that the specific results have not been finally announced, the exact number to be officially confirmed. The financing led by Tencent, Baidu Capital, a number of institutions followed. After the completion of this round of financing, NIO valuation will reach 20 billion yuan.

Founded in late 2014 by the founder and CEO of Yuanyi, NIO launched the electric supercar EP9 last year after two years of research and development, and recently set a speed record of 257km/h for autonomous vehicles on the driverless track.

Recently, NIO has just released the new electric autonomous driving concept car EVE at the South by Southwest conference in the United States. The mass production model of this car will be launched for middle-class families in the United States, with the intention of entering the US electric vehicle market in 2020.

NIO concept car EVE

At the upcoming Shanghai Auto Show in April, NIO is understood to be unveiling its first production car for China – an electric SUV with L2 to L3 autonomous driving capabilities. Li Bin, NIO’s founder and chairperson, said the production car would be officially delivered in the first half of 2018.

Behind the production schedule is NIO’s frequent actions in R & D team and capacity building. NIO has established design, R & D, production and commercial institutions in 12 places including Shanghai, San Jose, Munich and London, with more than 2,000 employees. In the production of complete vehicles, NIO chose to cooperate with Jianghuai Automobile for its first production vehicle.

In April 2016, NIO reached a strategic cooperation with the Nanjing Municipal Government and invested 3 billion to build a high-performance motor and electronic control system production base in Nanjing. In December 2016, NIO also reached a strategic cooperation with Hubei Province and planned to invest 10 billion yuan to build NIO New Energy Vehicle Industrial Park in Wuhan Optics Valley.

The reason why NIO has been able to continuously demonstrate its generosity is the continuous support of capital.

In 2015, NIO was jointly invested by Tencent, JD.com, High-collar Capital, Shunwei Capital, and Li Xiang, founder of Autohome.

At the end of the same year, NIO completed a $500 million financing, with investors including Sequoia Capital and Joy Capital.

In the summer of 2016, NIO completed another round of financing worth hundreds of millions of dollars, led by Temasek Holdings and joined by TPG and Lenovo.

Regarding the lead investor in this financing, Tencent, as one of the early investors in NIO, has made investments shortly after Li Bin established the company, and has maintained its investment in NIO since then.

Baidu is a new investor. It is reported that this is also the first investment project after the establishment of Baidu Capital. It has been reported that Baidu plans to invest $100 million in NIO to cooperate with NIO in the field of autonomous driving. Analysis said that Baidu’s investment in NIO is intended to accelerate its autonomous driving pace and increase its own voice over autonomous driving through cooperation with emerging automakers.

Other investors this time include Warburg Pincus, IDG, Hopu, Lenovo, Hillhouse, Industrial, GIC, TPG, CICC, Capital Today, Haitong International and other well-known investment institutions.

Original Yang Mi was criticized for being too much, is it true temperament or a big name?

Whether star chasers should be rational is no new topic. Many fans always lose control of their emotions when they meet their idols.

But is your favorite bean worth pursuing?

Nowadays, the entertainment industry is most enthusiastic about setting up talent for artists, such as: true temperament, veteran cadres, foodies, and so on.

Next, let’s analyze the most popular "true temperament" in the entertainment industry.

The most authentic representative of the entertainment industry is Yang Mi. Yang Mi debuted as a child star and has been in the entertainment industry for many years. Since her debut, she has gained the love of many fans and has now become a first-line actress.

But whether she is genuine or playing big has always been a polarizing question.

Recently, during a program, netizens posted a video of Yang Mi interacting with the host, causing heated discussions.

In the video, Yang Mi’s attitude is very poor, and even the next second will be impatient and angry.

The editor also watched this video carefully. That day, Yang Mi’s makeup was very delicate. As the live broadcast went on, the host tried to interact with Yang Mi and asked Yang Mi to read the winning list.

In fact, the host was already very embarrassed at this time, but for the effect of the show, he could only bite the bullet and continue to interact with Yang Mi. In the next part, Yang Mi refreshed the three views, and his attitude became more and more perfunctory.

Perhaps the host is a newcomer and the interview is a first-line actress, so the whole process is very nervous. When he asked Yang Mi again what regrets do you have this year, Yang Mi directly asked, what regrets do you have?

This wave of operations directly caught the host by surprise. After all, before participating in the show, it was rehearsed in advance. The host only needed to follow the process to complete it. However, Yang Mi may have been in a bad mood that day and did not give the host any face.

In order for the live broadcast to go smoothly, the host could only follow Yang Mi’s words and did not leave the order. Yang Mi immediately followed up: "When did you break up, and why did you break up?" This was a private question, Yang Mi kept asking, breaking the casserole and asking to the end, the host continued to smile and said that at the end of last year, because of personality differences. After listening to Yang Mi, he said: "It’s been a year since we broke up, it’s really sad."

As soon as he said this, the situation became embarrassing and almost cold. Fortunately, in the end, Yang Mi finally stopped asking questions and used this topic to send blessings to the fans.

During the 40-minute live broadcast, I believe the host has been in a state of fear, but Yang Mi’s performance has indeed aroused the dissatisfaction of fans. Some netizens have criticized Yang Mi for being a big name and disrespecting the host.

Soon, the incident of Yang Mi playing a big name was fermented on the Internet, perhaps realizing that the signs were wrong, Yang Mi also sent blessings to fans after the livestream, and thanked fans for their support this year. Her words were sincere, so that fans who liked her instantly forgot her indifference in the live stream.

But there are also netizens who think why they don’t admit it, and even point out the behavior of Yang Mi knocking over the mobile phone of female reporters in the early years.

At that time, Yang Mi asked the reporter if it was a live broadcast, and Wang Xiao said yes. As a result, Yang Mi heard a sentence that had nothing to do with me. He took advantage of the situation and knocked out the mobile phone in the reporter’s hand, scaring Wang Xiao to explain that it was just an accident.

During this period, Yang Mi asked the reporter many times if he was live, and he tried to kill the reporter’s phone many times. Wang Xiao even said to the side: ‘You’d better take your phone away, or she will throw it away.’ This sentence exposed Yang Mi’s fiery temper.

Once upon a time, Yang Mi was still in the interview show "Dear, Please Relax" hosted by Zhang Da. In the trailer, Zhang Da bluntly told Yang Mi that this was his most stressful episode.

Yang Mi gave examples of the delivery brother and the camera brother. The delivery brother was out and about all day, while the cameraman had to work with a machine regardless of the harsh shooting conditions.

When the artists are exposed to the sun and rain in front of the camera, the staff work 10 times harder than them.

These words expressed her sympathy for the staff, and at the same time, she did not advertise herself. But not only did the netizens not nod and praise her, but they turned up old accounts one after another.

In the program, Yang Mi talked about how hard artists work in many media today, but in reality, various industries have their own difficulties. Why do you want others to understand your hard work?

Some netizens believe that Yang Mi’s words are not problematic in themselves, but when it comes to her "mobile phone incident" in her early years, these remarks suddenly become subtle.

When Ran Ran, there are also fans who can understand, after all, online, just, taken out of context, alone, take out a paragraph, it seems, can’t pick out, what’s wrong, Yang Mi, in the circle, but, notoriously, good popularity, so, about this, how do you, how do you think, Yang Mi, the live stream, action?

The owner of parking service business around some hospitals in Xi’ an said that he was not at ease.

  Going to the hospital to see a doctor, in addition to queuing for registration, is worrying. Driving to the hospital gate for a long time can’t get in and can’t find a parking space, which is also a worrying thing for patients and their families. Recently, a new service, parking service, has quietly sprung up around some 3A hospitals in Xi ‘an to solve the parking problem. How exactly does parking service serve? The reporter had an experience in front of several hospitals.

  experience

  Depojia two-hour parking charge 39 yuan

  At 9: 00 am on April 12th, the reporter drove to the intersection of Xiwu Road and Beixin Street, and found that the vehicles heading west of the intersection to the south gate of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi ‘an Jiaotong University had lined up in two "long queues" on the auxiliary road on the north side of the road, which was very slow. The reporter roughly counted, from the intersection to the gate of the hospital, there were 60 cars on the road only 200 meters away. The coordinator at the entrance of the hospital told the reporter that there are about 500 parking spaces in the hospital, but the number of patients who come to see a doctor by car far exceeds this number. Therefore, in the morning and afternoon rush hours, there are long queues of vehicles at the entrance of the hospital at any time. In addition, there is only one entrance to the hospital, so vehicles can only move forward a little while waiting in line, and if they are fast, they have to wait for ten or twenty minutes.

  While the reporter was at a loss, a parking service man with a parking billboard came to the front of the car and asked the reporter if he needed to park on his behalf. "You give me the car, I help you park, very convenient. I take twenty or thirty orders every day, which is absolutely no problem. If you are not at ease, I will send you the keys immediately after the car stops. " The parking person hesitated to see the reporter and kept explaining in the introduction. Later, according to its requirements, the reporter scanned the code and paid attention to its company’s parking applet, selected "I want to park" online and left my mobile phone number. Immediately after paying 39 yuan with WeChat, a uniformed valet driver immediately came forward to inspect the vehicle, and then valet parking officially started. After the reporter got off the bus, another staff member wearing the uniform of the parking driver also told the reporter about the follow-up use. According to the other party, the service fee for this valet parking is 39 yuan, including valet parking and pick-up and delivery services, and parking is free for 2 hours. If it exceeds 2 hours, the overtime service fee will be charged by 4 yuan every half hour before 15: 00 and 8 yuan every half hour after 15: 00. When picking up the car, the customer can contact the parking agent directly by phone, or enter the WeChat applet and click "I want to pick up the car". The staff will drive the car directly to the designated place for delivery, or send the car keys directly to the owner.

  I don’t feel comfortable giving my car to a stranger.

  In the interview, the reporter found that in the long queue of vehicles at the entrance of the hospital, several staff members wearing parking uniforms shuttled back and forth, constantly recommending their services to drivers waiting for parking. The reporter observed for half an hour, and seven drivers chose the parking service. However, many drivers said that they "don’t dare to use it" for the time being. Mr. Lin, the owner of the car, said that it is really not at ease to hand over the car directly to strangers. "What if the driver drives away directly?" Ms. Chen, the owner of the car, is worried: "It is still a trivial matter that there is a collision. The driver of Wanyi Park has a big accident that hurts people. How should the responsibility be divided? Only the relevant records on the WeChat applet, without a paper contract, feel unreliable. "

  Later, the reporter went to Xi ‘an Children’s Hospital, and saw the parking driver wearing the same uniform at the parking entrance of the west gate of the hospital. A valet parking driver surnamed Zhang told reporters that at present, there are seven or eight valet parking drivers waiting for orders in children’s hospital every day. Due to the limited number of parking spaces in the hospital parking lot and the large number of vehicles entering the hospital, it takes about 20 minutes or even longer for each order to pick up the car and park it. Because the valet parking service at the entrance of the hospital is still a new thing, some drivers don’t know much about it and don’t accept it, so most of the orders received are old customers, and even customers who have used valet parking service will take the initiative to contact the appointment form when they are in a hurry to park.

  In the face of everyone’s questions, the reporter contacted Mr. Lu, the person in charge of Xi’ an, which provides a parking service platform. He said that at present, the parking service in Xi ‘an is only launched in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Jiaotong University, Xi ‘an Children’s Hospital and the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi ‘an Jiaotong University, and it has been in the promotion stage since it was launched on February 25. There are nearly 100 valet drivers in the company. From Monday to Friday, the time for taking orders is from 8: 00 am to 3: 00 pm every day. Now, there are nearly 1,000 orders per day on average. Although many car owners don’t know much about this, from the feedback of used car owners, everyone’s recognition is still relatively high. It is expected that this month, the platform will also open parking services for many hospitals such as Tang Dou Hospital and Provincial People’s Hospital. After the car owner successfully booked the parking service through the platform, the company will actively deal with the car owner’s concerns about vehicle rubbing and illegal vehicles during the parking period. In addition, the company has requirements for the driving experience and driving skills of the parking agent, and the driving experience must be more than 5 years. Mr. Lu also said that at present, the valet parking service at the entrance of the hospital has been carried out in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Chengdu, Chongqing, Wuhan, Hangzhou and Xi ‘an. Next, the platform will open services such as valet parking for travel, valet parking in business districts, and meal parking, and soon the parking service APP will be launched, so that the car owner reservation service will be more convenient.

  expert

  Parking service is a new attempt and it is necessary to strengthen supervision.

  Shi Ying, vice president of Shaanxi Academy of Social Sciences, said that as a new service mode, the parking service launched on the online platform really meets the parking needs of people who see a doctor. It is a new attempt, but supervision should be strengthened. In recent years, similar parking service services have appeared in the northern, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, but most of them are the products of commercial companies’ operation, and the fees are relatively high, which is not very acceptable to patients and their families. It is suggested that major hospitals should form an official hospital parking platform to standardize and integrate parking service services, so as to ensure the safety of vehicles to the greatest extent and protect the service personnel who park on behalf of customers.

  Shi Ying also said that parking service can’t fundamentally solve the problem of parking difficulties, and functional departments need to strengthen parking guidance services, establish a perfect parking system, and at the same time strengthen the construction of public transportation near large hospitals to alleviate the parking contradiction from the source.

  lawyer

  Both sides of the service need to be careful to avoid disputes.

  "At present, services in parking service are all commercial activities, and their development is also the general trend. However, there are no special relevant laws and regulations to restrict and supervise them in China. In the case of parking service, both car owners and parking service providers conduct online transactions, so it is necessary to legally restrict the rights and obligations of both parties. Both car owners and service providers in parking service need to be cautious to avoid unnecessary disputes." Zhao Xiaodong, a lawyer of Shaanxi Haogong Law Firm, said that from the perspective of parking service companies, parking drivers must have a driver’s license and driving experience, and at the same time, they must carry out daily management and supervision. For the owner, valuables should be carried with him before handing over the car to the driver. If the driver makes an appointment through the mobile phone client, the driver’s license and ID card must be confirmed, and both parties should protect their rights and interests.

Seven things you don’t know about the Great Wall gun off-road pickup truck

The great wall gun off-road pickup truck was launched after the commercial and passenger models, which also filled all the market segments of its own pickup truck models, and also filled the gap in the off-road field of independent pickup trucks. At the listing meeting, the official mentioned the situation of "changing the joint venture off-road pickup truck to dominate the market". Yes, the pickup truck models that can take into account the off-road capability in the pickup truck market are nothing more than large pickups such as Raptor and Smooth Road. The price of 400,000 to 500,000 yuan is not something that all fans can casually consume. In comparison, the Great Wall Cannon off-road pickup truck with a top price of less than 200,000 yuan is very close to the people.

Last November, I experienced the trial loading of the Great Wall Gun off-road pickup truck in Alashan Heroes’ Club, and this time I came to Shangri-La to try the final production model. Combining these two test drives, I will focus on the details of the Great Wall Gun off-road pickup truck for everyone. If you are interested in this car after listening to the price, you might as well spend ten minutes listening to me chanting these details.

# The power is weaker than the normal version, not because of the weight.

Many media teachers in the same trade spoke out about the initial power output of the off-road pickup truck of the Great Wall Gun, and even the vehicles that stepped on the accelerator pedal deeply in the ramp experienced a lack of power. Did you not have this problem in the previous test drive of the ordinary version of the Great Wall Gun?After all, the powertrain and book parameters are the same. I communicated with the technical staff of the manufacturer for this problem.

The reason why the initial power is weak and the power can’t explode mainly comes from the intake system. The black pipe protruding from the fender on the co-pilot side can be called sand collecting cup, wading throat and high intake. I believe that many friends who like cross-country are very envious when they see the high-position air intake assembled by the original factory, butThe off-road pickup truck with high exhaust usually has a direct impact on power.Moreover, the sound of air intake will be very obvious when the vehicle is driving, especially when running at high speed. Someone here will definitely say, what are you talking about NVH? But I tell you responsibly,After installing high air intake, this noise is absolutely impossible for you to ignore.

In addition, after opening the engine compartment cover, you will see that the volume of the pipeline and the whole system of the left air intake system is not large. To be honest, it is a little small, which also affects the air intake to some extent.Although it is not too late for the access point with the largest torque to start from 1800 rpm, due to the influence of air intake, it is usually necessary to wait until the engine speed reaches 2500 rpm before the torque can intervene, which makes everyone feel that the power of vehicles below 2500 rpm cannot get up.Especially on off-road sections, even if the throttle is slowly output during climbing, it is also related to our test drive location (3,300m above sea level). However, if you enter Tibetan areas, the altitude of many places will be close to or even exceed 5,000m. Will there be car owners changing the air intake system in the future?

The Good and Bad of # 9500lb Electric Winch

The sub-top and top-top models are equipped with 9500-pound electric winches, which are hidden inside the front bumper. Most of the winches used by friends who often cross-country are more than 10000 pounds. Do you want to ask me if this 9500-pound winch is enough to pull more than two tons of Great Wall gun off-road pickup trucks? I can say that it is enough responsibly, but it should be divided into scenes. If you get stuck in the mud, 9500 pounds may be a little hard. The electric winch is hidden in the front bumper, so it doesn’t seem to have a sense of disobedience, and it is easy to use. Just disassemble the partitions on both sides. butIf the plastic buckle of the clapboard is used more often, it is easy to buckle loosely, and it is easy to loosen in the off-road section with strong strength. Moreover, whether the plastic clapboard will become brittle and easily broken in the cold environment has not been tested yet.

Furthermore, the hidden winch is placed behind the license plate frame. In actual use, if the angle of the cable is upward when the vehicle is towed at a lower position, it may also push against the license plate frame, which may cause the license plate frame to fall off or deform.

Friends who often cross will install a rear winch at the rear bumper if conditions permit, so that the front and rear of the car can get out of trouble in extreme cases. There is still a large space at the rear bumper of this car, and the next mainstream winch can be placed without destroying the original bumper, but we must pay attention to the volume.Don’t affect the normal placement of the license plate. If the position of the license plate rack changes, it should be noted that the license plate should be loaded on the main body of the vehicle and fixed at four o’clock, and it should not be designed as a movable type that can be lifted, otherwise 12 points will be deducted directly.

Experience of using AT tire of # Bailuchi KO2 and nitrogen shock absorber of K-MAN.

Our test drive is a limited edition model with a price of 199,800 yuan, which is the top version.The most direct difference in appearance from the middle and low models is the red calipers and AT tires of Bailuchi KO2. The tires of the middle model are Cooper Discover AT3 series tires, but the flat cover of the trunk is not standard, and the optional cost is 7000 yuan.

Let’s start with the AT tire of Bailuchi KO2. It is estimated that friends who like cross-country and cross-country have been exposed to the tires of Bailuchi brand. KO2 is positioned as a tire suitable for moderate cross-country. Compared with AT tires at the same price, this tire is more balanced in performance and comfort. Many car owners will share the feeling of leather and durability after replacing KO2 tires, and the performance is enough for ordinary cross-country players. KO2 shoulder pattern is very long, so it can get a larger contact area when the tire is depressed, and a desliming separator is designed to help cut mud, and there is a certain angle design to prevent the shoulder from being scratched during driving.

The tire wall thickness of Bailuchi ko2 is 5.4mm, and the tire particles don’t seem to be very big, which has little influence on the power of the vehicle. At least, the acceleration of the middle section of the pavement on the Great Wall Gun has almost no obvious influence. The tire noise is naturally larger than that of ordinary comfort-oriented tires, but it is good as a whole. Because the suction sound of high intake air will be obviously transmitted to the model, the tire noise will be relatively small when the paved road is driving at high speed, and it will not bring the so-called "auditory pain".

Let’s talk about K-MAN’s nitrogen shock absorber. The cost of this product is not low. To be honest, I didn’t expect it to appear on the off-road pickup truck of the Great Wall Gun. Compared with the shock absorber of the traditional oil reduction system, the nitrogen shock absorber has much higher cost, and has the characteristics of adjustable soft and hard back pressure. Generally speaking, it is mainly used in sports events or heavier off-road environments. However, this set of nitrogen shock absorber needs to be maintained after a period of later use. According to many car owners, the later maintenance cost is not low. I also consulted the manufacturer for the later maintenance of nitrogen shock absorber. The car owner does not need to go to a third party for maintenance, and the 4S shop can support the maintenance and adjustment of the hardness of the shock absorber during vehicle maintenance.

The off-road pickup truck of Great Wall Gun equipped with nitrogen shock absorber has an average performance on the paved road. Compared with the ordinary version, it can obviously feel the road feeling more clearly, and the small bumps on the road surface will also be transmitted to the driver’s body. It is still stiff to bounce when encountering the speed bump, which is also in line with the positioning of this car. If you are very concerned about comfort, consider the original factory shock absorber.

# What’s the ability to get out of trouble?

The manufacturer also arranged a cross-country section for this test drive, but this section of the road does not require high ability for vehicles to get out of trouble. There is no obvious cross axis or steep slope, only some slippery mud, so it can’t pose a threat to the passage of vehicles. Control the direction and stabilize the throttle, and you can easily pass.

In terms of the details of the chassis, the off-road gun has added a metal guard to protect the transfer box, fuel tank and other positions, and will not cause direct damage to the hardware because of the bottom support in off-road.

The approach angle, departure angle and minimum ground clearance of the Great Wall Gun off-road pickup truck are 30, 26 and 228mm, respectively, which are not much different from those of the ordinary version. The Bailuchi KO2 tire can cope well with gravel and muddy roads, and its grip performance is very ok. Mud has a certain test for the vehicle’s own electronic slip-limiting ability. However, due to the good performance of tire grip, there is no obvious slip phenomenon when passing through, so we don’t need to hang the fourth gear or use the differential lock in this link.

Creeping mode is also called "fool mode". For those who are inexperienced in cross-country driving, this configuration can help you do a lot of things. This mode can only be activated after switching to the low-four mode. The allowable speed range of creep mode is 5-12km/h. After activation, the driver only needs to control the direction and leave the rest to the vehicle.

In addition, the overall performance of 700 mm wading depth is still sufficient, but if the computer position can be higher, such as higher than the air filter, then I think the wading depth can definitely be improved.

# Will it be tiring to drive on paved roads?

The comfort of most hard-core SUVs on paved roads is generally average, but full-size pickup trucks such as Raptor and Smooth Road have changed this stereotype. The wide body, comfortable seats and abundant V8 power will leave a good impression on people during the long journey, but only if you don’t modify them, the comfort will naturally decrease after changing tires and shock absorbers.

The seat of the cross-country gun looks very generous, and the filler is particularly thick. It is still soft to sit on, which is obviously more comfortable than the seat of Ruiqi 6, so it is more friendly in the long journey.

The overall comfort of the Great Wall gun off-road pickup truck when driving on the paved road is acceptable, except that the high air intake mentioned above will bring certain noise and the nitrogen shock absorber has a strong road feeling, the other aspects are similar to the ordinary version. The 2.0T engine has 190 horsepower and 360 Nm, which will not give any surprises in terms of power when driving a body with more than 2 tons. The power is not abundant but enough. Accelerating from 30km/h to 80km/h will not feel procrastination.

The shifting logic of 8AT gearbox conforms to common sense, and the upshift is positive, but I think it is a bit too cautious in gearbox protection. Facing the uphill road ahead, the gearbox can’t downshift multiple gears in succession, and the actual measurement can only be reduced from the 7th gear to the 4th gear, and then the paddles will not work, so the dynamic response will not be very positive, even if the accelerator pedal is deeply stepped on, it will be quite unusual.

With regard to braking, the overall performance makes the driver feel a little insecure. Perhaps it is also influenced by the greater inertia of the vehicle weight. The braking force is not very strong. There is a certain vacancy in the initial stage of the brake pedal. If you want to obtain a certain braking force, you need enough pedal stroke to release the braking force. However, due to the good support of the nitrogen shock absorber, the overall posture is good.

# Some commonly used configurations

Stainless steel shelves and flat covers of containers are not equipped even with top-mounted models, which requires an extra 7,000 yuan for optional installation. After the optional installation, the containers can really be used to put some luggage, but the price is really not cheap. If there is a need to pack luggage later, it is still recommended to install some limit devices, otherwise the luggage will run around after driving.

After the flat cover of the container is opened, it still has a certain height, and the strength of the hydraulic rod is not light. It takes a little effort for a petite female friend to close it. After closing, she has to press both sides down to completely close it.

The 9-inch central control LCD screen has the functions of multimedia, GPS navigation, mobile phone interconnection and Carplay, and also supports the expansion of applications. In addition, the probability that the 7-inch full LCD instrument panel can be seen on the pickup truck is extremely low, and it can display the altitude and air pressure, which will be a very practical configuration on the plateau. The air conditioning control panel under the central control adopts the combination of double knobs and physical buttons, which can see the functions of automatic air conditioning, seat heating, steep slope descent, front and rear differential lock and so on.

The off-road version is equipped with a two-speed TOD intelligent four-wheel drive system, with two modes of high-speed and low-speed four-wheel drive, and the front and rear axles have locking mechanisms. Seven driving modes are provided, in addition to sports, standard and economy modes, four modes of snow, mud, sand and low-speed four-wheel drive are added.

# Full text summary

I think the biggest advantage of the Great Wall gun off-road pickup truck is that it can go off-road or cross directly at the factory. The top price is less than 200,000 yuan. The manufacturer has strengthened the passing capacity of the whole vehicle. "Modification before leaving the factory" also means that the owner does not have to worry about car inspection and other issues. If the manufacturer can optimize and improve the air intake system, the dynamic response of the initial stage of the vehicle will be better, and there will be no sense of "weak somatosensory power". For these three configurations, I personally recommend that you choose the top model. The cost of Bailuchi KO2 tire and K-MAN nitrogen shock absorber is still quite high, and the actual performance is also better. Unfortunately, the test drive arranged by the manufacturer did not involve difficult off-road sections, so I can only go to the venue to experience it after I get the test drive in the future. I will share the detailed performance with you in the future.

Online celebrity County Party Secretary will leave: I hope my colleagues will forget my harshness.

  WeChat friends circle screenshot

  At about 13: 00 on December 2, Chen Xingjia, secretary of online celebrity County Committee of Hubei Province, publicly posted in his WeChat circle of friends, "Dear folks, I am about to leave my beloved Badong. Here, I would like to thank everyone and say goodbye through the public number of my good friend Yinuo. "

  Previously, Chen Xingjia, the current secretary of Badong County Party Committee, born in January 1971, was designated as the "candidate for state-level leading cadres" in September 2016.

  Chen Xingjia said in the above, "I sincerely thank all media friends for their attention and support to Badong over the years. I have completed the mission of Badong spokesperson, so I personally will not be interviewed by any media in the near future. Please stop paying attention to me personally, and please continue to pay attention to supporting Badong — — Although it is remote and temporarily poor, it is infinitely beautiful and full of hope in Badong. "

  At the same time, Chen Xingjia attached his "parting speech".

  He wrote, "Thanks to my colleagues and your support, several major events that the county party committee has decided to do every year in recent years have won everyone’s support. I hope that when you remember me in the future, you will understand and forget my strictness and harshness. I will no longer be your leader, but I will still be your micro-friend, your pen pal, your ball friend and your donkey friend. "

  He also thanked many netizens. "Thank you for your enthusiastic encouragement, supervision and criticism. In fact, I have been with you all these years. I have an ID in the forum, and my name is five words (don’t guess, the administrator doesn’t know it’s me), and occasionally I have spoken and participated in the discussion. "

  Chen Xingjia also said, "I am most satisfied with the work I have done in Badong ‘ Clean and self-reliant ’ Badong spirit, and lead everyone to practice together. I dare not say that I am worthy of my life, but I dare say that I am worthy of my heart, dare to say that I am a county party secretary who does not collect money, and dare to say that I have tried my best. "

  Attachment: The full text of Chen Xingjia’s Goodbye, My Badong.

  I am about to leave Badong, and I have too much to give up. In front of the window is the outline of the distant mountain in Xirukou under the setting sun, which is undulating like waves, just like my mood at the moment. More than five years seems to have passed quickly, and there are many things to say, and I don’t know where to start.

  Before I came to Badong, my life and Badong only crossed twice. First, before I was 11 years old as a child, I grew up in Xiangxiawan Village, Gao Qiao, Xingshan County, which is only a dozen miles away from Baiwan Village on the border of Badong County. I know that menstruation was married in a remote village in Badong County. Second, I took a boat from Yichang to Chongqing ten years ago. I once passed through Badong in the misty rain. My peers introduced that Wuxiakou next to Badong County is the pattern behind five yuan.

  On October 9, 2011, I received a notice from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee to work in Badong. The word "Badong" is distant and vague, so I can only learn about my new home through the Internet. I still remember the deep shock after typing "Badong" in Baidu at first. Behind the long history and beautiful scenery, the names Deng Yujiao and Ran Jianxin firmly link the word "Badong" in the negative information of the mass network, which is mixed with resentment and hostility.

  It took me a week to search Badong comprehensively and get to know Badong. My notebook was full of ten pages, and my heart had already arrived before the people arrived. On October 15th, 2011, I left Yidu and set foot on the land of Badong. I come with a heavy responsibility, with deep concern and full of enthusiasm.

  In November 2011, I boarded the Damian Mountain for the first time. On the sedan chair rock surrounded by red leaves, I overlooked the Yangtze River flowing from the horizon through Wuxia, and I was inexplicably moved. I remembered Tagore’s sentence, "This is the farthest journey, and I came to the place closest to you … …” I think I found my own door here.

  That night, I wrote my first poem after coming to Badong:

  Finally, I came to this river,

  Through the setting sun, through the dense forest,

  I saw you,

  At the end of the red leaves, you stand alone,

  Is this the distant and clear you in your dream?

  How many years have you been waiting here silently?

  Honey, I’m coming!

  I found you, in this life!

  I want to tell my past life,/we have met in this life;

  I want to tell my next life, the next life,

  Because of love, I am willing to be a happy stone … …

  These years have passed like this. At this moment, I feel that I am a happy stone, and I fell here in the best time of my life. Wake up in the mist and glow in the morning, walk in the mountains and waters during the day, walk in the shadow of the ship’s flute and light in the evening, and fall asleep with the sound of waves at night. Looking back on every day in Badong, it is happiness.

  Using the simplest words to express the mood at this time is "thank you".

  Thanks to the 500,000 folks in Badong, thank you for your acceptance, and let me feel back to my hometown at the first time. Although my hundreds of thousands of poor relatives in Badong no longer serve you directly, I will still care about you and try my best to do something for you.

  Thanks to my colleagues and your support, several major events that the county party Committee has decided to do every year in recent years have won everyone’s support. I hope that when you remember me in the future, you will understand and forget my strictness and harshness. I will no longer be your leader, but I will still be your micro-friend, your pen pal, your ball friend and your donkey friend.

  Thanks to my old kiss menstruation, my mother’s elder sister who was most concerned and distressed before her death. And my three cousins, you work and live silently in remote villages. Over the years, you have never looked for me, and you have not let others know that you are the closest relatives of the county party secretary. Even if menstruation was seriously ill and came to the county hospital for hospitalization, you did not let me know.

  Thank you for your enthusiastic encouragement, supervision and criticism. In fact, I have been with you all these years. I have an ID in the forum, and my name is five words (don’t guess, the administrator doesn’t know it’s me), and occasionally I have spoken and participated in the discussion … … I would also like to thank the stones, bugs and little birds in particular. Your deep love and responsibility have always insisted on speaking out from a critical perspective, which is very helpful to my work.

  Finally, I would like to thank Wang Ming, Pu Cunxin, Di Sen, Deng Fei, Yuan Hui, Chen Jingxiao, Li Jie, Peng Fei, An Yu, Zhou Jian, Rose Tong &hellip for their silent dedication, support and service to rural public welfare in Badong. … And all the long-term or short-term, famous and unknown supporters. You don’t seek fame or gain, you are full of compassion and enthusiasm for the disadvantaged, and your spirit and feelings warm the still barren land here. Five years in Badong, interacting with you, also let me always face my true self from the grassroots, and deeply feel that serving the grassroots is the happiness I have been pursuing.

  What I am most satisfied with in my work in Badong is that I have condensed the spirit of "clean and self-improvement" with you and led you to practice it together. I dare not say that I am worthy of my life, but I dare say that I am worthy of my heart, dare to say that I am a county party secretary who does not accept money, and dare to say that I have tried my best.

  What I regret most is that in the past five years, Badong’s industrial development has been struggling. In recent years, the eco-cultural tourism industry, which we have exerted the greatest efforts, has not really taken off until this year. Several major projects launched at the end of last year and this year, such as photovoltaic poverty alleviation in State Grid, high-speed rail town and Yingcai Waterfront in the Yangtze River, let us see the dawn, but there will be many difficulties in the implementation process. My successor colleagues, the task of leading the villagers in the county out of poverty and towards a well-off society is still very heavy.

  Yan Ping is diligent and honest, and Guo Ling has feelings and responsibility. I believe my successor colleagues will do better than me. I believe that in the future, Badong will have beautiful political ecology, beautiful social ecology and beautiful natural ecology. It is the cleanest and most beautiful town near the Yangtze River, a place where foreigners don’t want to go when they come, and a place where people living here feel happy!

  I left clearly, just as I came clearly; I waved my sleeve without taking away a cloud. Goodbye, my Badong! There are no traces of wings in the sky, but I have flown. Over the years, the mountains are long and the waters are wide. You are in my heart and in my dream.
