Zhejiang Online, April 20 (Zhejiang Online reporter, Zhu Geqian, intern, Sui Xue, correspondent, Zhang Ye)Recently, the Junior High School of Hangzhou Wahaha Bilingual School opened an integration course to parents. Sixth graders from each school experienced an experience class on cross-cultural integration of Chinese, English, science, and society and history.

　　Poetic Chinese Classroom – The Cultural Core of Chinese and Western Use

　　How does a Chinese fusion class that cannot see the traces of Western culture achieve cross-cultural integration? The teacher chose four West Lake poems by two writers with deep roots in Hangzhou, Bai Juyi and Su Dongpo, to start group classroom teaching.

　　After getting the materials, the teacher guided each group to complete the corresponding tasks according to the teaching goals – reading through the poems, understanding the poems with pictures, and recommending poems. After deepening their understanding of poems in the first two links, the students went on stage to report the results of the group’s study.

　　Giving the classroom to students and using the more autonomous group collaboration and team display classroom model in the West to learn Chinese classic poetry can be regarded as an innovation in Chinese teaching methods. "In terms of teaching content, we still adhere to the core position of Chinese culture, but in terms of Chinese teaching methods, we continue to try to adopt more student-centered Western teaching strategies," said the teaching teacher.

　　In the future, there will also be comparative reading of Chinese and Western literature and translation and appreciation of Chinese and English classics in the school’s language classes, strengthening comprehensive learning practices, so that students can experience the beauty of language learning in an independent, cooperative and open classroom.

　　Pure English classroom – an all-English immersion environment

　　What is a "story"? Foreign teacher Ciaran led the children to re-understand the "story" from the perspectives of characters, settings and plots in an hour and a half. The all-English class mode made many children a little restrained at first. But the humorous Ciaran teacher soon got to know the students well.

　　Starting from a simple discussion of Who, When and Where, What Happened, these easier-to-understand concepts, students understand the basic concept of "story" and the different forms of "story". By combining life scenes with previous reading experiences, students grasp the three basic elements of story: Character (character), Setting (setting), Plot (plot).

　　Afterwards, Teacher Ciaran prepared the Minions’ story fragment "Competition", using the short film as a material to analyze the different elements that make up the story in a more targeted manner and strengthen the study of theory. Finally, the group’s task list "AT THE MOVIES" was completed in a group collaboration. The students learned and analyzed the structure of the text through four aspects of listening, speaking, reading and writing, and returned to the study of English knowledge.

　　Rigorous Chemistry Classroom: A Comparative Study of Chinese and Western Teaching Concepts and Methods

　　The chemistry classroom fully reflects the rigorous spirit of the subject. The chemistry teacher compared the "Compulsory Education Textbook" (Zhejiang Education Press) and "Science Fusion" (a set of top science courses published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Group in the United States, which are used as science textbooks in many public schools in the United States). Combining the advantages of the two sets of textbooks, students are guided step by step to complete the teaching objectives of this class: to understand the physical and chemical properties of acids or bases, and to be able to judge the acid and alkali properties of substances according to the physical and chemical properties of acids or bases.

　　The rigorous classroom was also very interesting, and the students were very interested in the introduction of the teacher in the life situation, and the classroom atmosphere quickly became active. After a class, the students learned not only the chemistry knowledge required by the curriculum standard and the core English vocabulary involved in these knowledge.

　　"What’s even more exciting is that after the science class, some students came over and asked me for pH test strips because they wanted to go back and continue to study the acidity and alkalinity of more substances. This is what we want to train children to better understand the world through their own curiosity and their own perception through science class," said Liu Zhaoyun, a chemistry teacher.

　　Dialectical Society and History Classroom – Seeing the World from Multiple Perspectives

　　Around the two questions of "what is history" and "what are we studying in history", the society and history teacher also replaced the "Yiyan Hall" with the form of "discussion group", and asked each group of students to design a story according to the historical characters assigned. Students work in groups and choose a representative to speak. Other group members judge which plots are real and which are made up.

　　The teacher guides the students to express their opinions with questions and materials, and finds the key to the exit in the collision of viewpoints, which not only gives the students the opportunity to fully express themselves, but also leaves a vast space for thinking. At the same time, the teacher also tries to cooperate with the students to learn. When thinking about the ultimate question that human beings must face, "Where do I come from?", the students are pleasantly surprised to provide many philosophical answers.

　　Learning history is not only about learning about the development and changes of China and the world, but also about cultivating students to understand history philosophically and balance the relationship between themselves and the world. Specific to the junior high school stage, it is the cultivation of historical understanding and critical thinking.

　　In the end, each group was given three passages about Hitler’s teenage, adolescent and middle-aged experiences without his name, and asked to read them and summarize the character’s characteristics. Faced with these historical materials alone, the students felt the character’s loneliness, literature, pity and horror. "To understand and analyze the character from multiple angles rather than to make a coffin with a fixed concept is what we want to pass on to the student through the course. This is true for understanding a person, but even more so for understanding a culture and a concept," the instructor said.

　　If you accidentally miss this integration course experience, parents can also pay attention to participating in this Sunday’s integration course experience, so that your child can experience another cross-cultural journey brought by our school’s math, physics, English and physical education teachers.

　　From September 22 to September 27, the 2023 Hybrid Electric Vehicle Extreme Challenge, the first domestic hybrid car exclusive event jointly launched by China Automotive Xinke and Kunming Inspection Center, was successfully concluded in Yunnan. The competition items involved a number of key indicators to measure the buying point of hybrid cars, such as pure electric cruising mileage, power loss fuel consumption, high-speed real energy consumption, and plateau mountain extreme energy consumption. During the six-day challenge, this "AI intelligent electric hybrid car" Geely Galaxy L6, which is dedicated to building a new generation of intelligent electric hybrid comfort benchmarks, played a stable role in all aspects and lived up to expectations. It won the championship of the compact plug-in hybrid car group and the single championship of plateau extreme energy consumption in one fell swoop. At the same time, in 6 of the 10 test items (idling vibration, 60km/h and 80km/h power loss constant speed driving noise, pure electric battery life, power loss energy consumption, limit energy consumption), defeated the remaining 18 participating models and won the championship.

　　"Honors" at the same level: Low key can play, truebattery lifeSuper official data

　　The Geely Galaxy L6 participating in the challenge is a 125km starship of 2023. It uses a new generation of Raytheon hybrid 8848 power system, is equipped with a 1.5T hybrid dedicated engine with a maximum power of 120kW and a peak torque of 225N · m, and is matched with a 3-speed variable frequency electric drive DHT Pro. The maximum speed can reach 247km/h. In the plateau pure electric cruising range test, Geely Galaxy L6 delivered a perfect answer. After actual testing, Geely Galaxy L6 has a true cruising range of 131km, even 6 kilometers more than the official CLTC, which is really surprising and reflects the brand’s usual low-key and pragmatic.

　　At the same time, Geely Galaxy L6’s full-speed power and stable output performance have also been verified in long-distance battery life and fuel consumption tests. The test road in the competition is connected to many mountains, the road is long and winding, and there are many curves. With the McPherson-style front suspension and the rare multi-link independent rear suspension in the same class, Geely Galaxy L6 has precise steering and stable entry into corners. After exiting the corners, it can quickly increase to the best speed, achieving a delicate balance of speed and control.

　　Single champion: extreme fuel consumption, the lowest in the audience, focusing on a cost-effective

　　In addition to pure electric cruising, another important indicator for examining hybrid models is naturally fuel consumption. The big racing car tested the fuel consumption of the participating vehicles in the standard driving mode under the same conditions as the air conditioner setting of 25 ° C and the automatic air volume. Geely Galaxy L6 led the same class with a result of 4.74L/km.

　　The competition also tested the total energy consumption of the participating vehicles under the extreme working conditions of round-trip altitude climbing, long slope and steep descent of about 359 kilometers. In this project, Geely Galaxy L6 won the individual championship with a minimum extreme energy consumption of 3.94L/km. Geely Galaxy L6 is equipped with three-speed variable frequency DHT Pro, P1/P2 motor and an engine with 20 working modes and turbocharged suction. It has a wide range of working conditions and can provide the best power solution for different car scenarios. At a time when the popularity of self-driving travel in high-altitude areas continues unabated, the economy and convenience of Geely Galaxy L6 are undoubtedly very attractive to consumers.

　　Smart Cockpit Blessings:Enjoy safety quietly, praise from drivers who travel long distances

　　It is worth mentioning that the ride of the Geely Galaxy L6 is also very comfortable. In the test of the NVH dimension of the competition, the sound pressure level of the interior noise of the Geely Galaxy L6 at 60km/h and 80km/h under power loss is only 54.23dB and 57.09dB, which is the lowest in the same group. The idle vibration is also lower than that of the same group of models, and the NVH level is leading the same class.

　　In addition, Geely Galaxy L6 leads the same level in length and width, coupled with the use of silver-plated + LOW-E technology for shading and heat insulation double-dome canopy, spacious driving space. The whole system comes standard with 10.25-inch instrument + 13.2-inch central control screen + 16.2-inch co-driver screen three large screens, full-stack self-developed Galaxy N OS vehicle intelligence system, one-touch quick interaction, zero learning seconds to get started Android system, full scene visibility can be said, which greatly meets the various needs of users in driving. During the long journey of more than 1,000 kilometers, Geely Galaxy L6 industry’s first dual-partition marshmallow memory seat has strong wrapping, sedentary and not tired, and has also been well received by drivers. In terms of safety, Geely Galaxy L6 is based on the world’s leading new e-CMA intelligent electric hybrid architecture, with extremely strict standards. The proportion of thermoformed steel in the whole vehicle far exceeds that of the same level. The Aegis battery system is equipped to achieve battery protection and ensure the safety of the whole vehicle structure.

　　Overall, Geely’s Galaxy L6 has undergone comprehensive innovation in safety, performance, comfort, and intelligence, and its overall mechanical quality has surpassed that of its peers. The various achievements of the Hybrid Electric Vehicle Extreme Challenge confirm that this industry benchmark electric hybrid sedan is indeed trustworthy. Adhering to the concept of "building an intelligent boutique car for everyone", Geely undoubtedly has high hopes for the Galaxy L6, and has indeed achieved multiple "firsts". More highlights and details about the model need to be experienced and discovered by consumers in person.

After a short slump, Cyrus finally has its own highlight moment again. The smart factory in Liangjiang New District is the main production base of Cyrus Automobile, and now it is fully loaded 22 hours a day.

This is due to the popularity of new models. AITO’s new M7 has exceeded 90,000, and even the unlisted M9 orders have exceeded 30,000.

Sailis Automobile is a leading enterprise in the automotive industry in Chongqing and Liangjiang New Area. In 2021, Sailis Automobile and Huawei jointly designed the "Smart Choice Vehicle" model, creating a precedent for cross-border cooperation between new energy automobile enterprises and ICT technology enterprises. It also opened up a new path for the booming Chinese new energy automobile industry.

Relying on this, Cyrus Automobile is playing an increasingly important role in building a world-class intelligent and connected new energy vehicle industry cluster in Chongqing. "In the past year, Cyrus Automobile has achieved a breakthrough in the new energy vehicle business from 0 to 1. In the future, we strive to achieve accelerated development from 1 to N." said Zhang Xinghai, chairperson (founder) of Cyrus Automobile.

"Back from the Dead."

From the second half of 2022 to the first half of this year, Cyrus suffered a serious sales decline, and the ensuing market doubts were also frequent.

In the face of difficulties, Zhang Xinghai chose to rise to the challenge – on the one hand, Sailis Automobile and Huawei formed a closer cooperation, and jointly established the "AITO Inquiry and Sales Service Joint Working Group", responsible for the end-to-end closed-loop management of marketing, sales, delivery, service and other businesses. On September 22, Sailis CARE Care Service Strategy was officially released, opening the era of Smart Service 3.0, and will be committed to building a full-link smart service system that runs through pre-sales, delivery and after-sales.

On the other hand, it is also more important. By continuously enriching the product matrix, Zhang Xinghai hopes to rebuild the confidence of the outside world in the increasingly fierce market competition.

On September 12, AITO asked the new M7 was listed, and in the following 64 days created a record of 90,000 vehicles in Dading. According to Zhang Xinghai, in December this year, asked the M9 will also be listed.

In order to ensure delivery, Sailis Automotive Smart Factory is making every effort to accelerate production capacity improvement. The entire supply chain has added 1 billion yuan and 20,000 more manpower. At present, AITO’s new M7 is being produced in batches, efficiently and steadily, and delivery has also been opened in many cities across the country.

Under a series of measures, the sales of Cyrus cars have finally turned around: in October 2023, the AITO series delivered 12,700 new cars, including 10,547 new cars for the new M7, and the monthly delivery of a single model exceeded 10,000, setting a record high.

This made everyone breathe a sigh of relief. Yu Chengdong, executive director of Huawei, CEO of End Point BG, and chairperson of Smart Car Solutions BU, even wrote a late-night post: "It’s not easy to come back to life!"

Zhang Xinghai said, "In the past year, Cyrus Automobile has achieved a breakthrough in the new energy vehicle business from 0 to 1. In the future, we strive to achieve accelerated development from 1 to N."

Three principles define the development code

In 1986, Zhang Xinghai founded Chongqing Baxian Phoenix Electric Spring Factory and began to cut into the field of automotive parts such as automobile shock absorbers. Since then, he has been deeply involved in the automotive industry for 37 years.

"From independent entrepreneurship to joint venture vehicle manufacturing, and then to cross-border business cooperation, we have always focused on physical manufacturing companies, constantly seeking survival, change, and upgrading." Zhang Xinghai said.

In the process, he summed up the "three insistences" – "adhere to innovation-driven, adhere to long-term, adhere to commercial success", and use them as the development principles of Cyrus Automotive.

More specifically, "adhering to innovation-driven" means to provide users with the ultimate product experience through technological innovation, product innovation and business model innovation, so as to promote the development of enterprises; "adhering to long-term doctrine" means to always focus on the physical manufacturing industry, with the blessing of core technologies, to further promote the quality-focused strategy, to provide users with the ultimate service throughout the life cycle of the car; "adhering to business success" means to first enable users to succeed, serve users wholeheartedly, and meet users’ yearning for a better car life. At the same time, actively build an all-connected car ecosystem, form a closed-loop business, drive the success of all ecological parties, and share the fruits of development.

The cooperation with Huawei reflects these three principles. The smart selection model jointly created by both parties has also brought a new idea to the development of China’s new energy automobile industry.

In 2021, Sailis and Huawei jointly launched an intelligent range extension/pure electric platform based on DriveONE, and in April of the same year, the two parties signed a new energy vehicle cooperation agreement. Under the smart selection mode, Huawei will deeply participate in product definition, styling design, marketing, user experience and other links, and work with car companies to build complete vehicles.

In Zhang Xinghai’s opinion, Sailis Automobile is Huawei’s most stable, most reliable and deepest partner, responsible for the research and development of new cars, intelligent manufacturing, service and creating a pleasant car experience throughout the life cycle; Huawei is an important integrator of software products in the Sailis automotive industry chain, empowered by core software and hardware technologies such as electrification and intelligent parts, and the advantages of both parties are complementary and win-win.

This in-depth cooperation has also given Cyrus more confidence to face competition head-on. At present, with the strong support of national policies, Chinese auto brands are achieving industrial lane change and overtaking through new energy transformation. However, the global new energy vehicle market landscape is far from certain. Some multinational car companies have awakened and begun to transform, and the competition in the global new energy vehicle market is becoming more intense.

"The new energy vehicle track is a marathon, with heavy assets and long-term investment. Finally, it must be a competition of technological innovation system and intelligent landing." Zhang Xinghai said.

It is worth mentioning that Sailis Automobile has invested more than 20 billion yuan in the field of new energy vehicles, of which the AITO project has invested more than 12 billion yuan. In June this year, AITO’s 100,000 car was officially rolled off the production line in Liangjiang New Area, becoming the fastest new energy vehicle brand to achieve this result.

He said that in the next step, Cyrus Automobile will continue to strengthen cooperation with important integrators of software-related products in the industrial chain, such as Huawei, and continue to deepen "software-defined vehicles" to help build an automotive powerhouse.

1905 movie network feature Have you ever wondered what kind of spark you will have when you become a director and encounter the golden supporting role of the movie "Frog"?

This May 1st, they collaborated on a movie.

For audiences familiar with Tian Qiwen’s comedy performances in Stephen Chow’s films, it is hard to imagine that he would participate in the creation of such a drama as a producer.

"I made my debut in a drama," Tian Qiwen explained to the 1905 film network. "When I was young, Director Mai and I worked together once. He was the assistant director, and I was the producer.

As one of the most revealing filmmakers in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, facing our camera, we once again revealed various creations and the stories behind them –

Talking about the creation of "Procuratorial Fengyun", "It turns out that there are not so many trial dramas, and there will be more suspense";

Talking about the emotional drama of "Prosecutor Fengyun", "the adjustment is only after the actors are appointed";

Tan, "I am the first person to beat Wu Jing in a movie, there is an agreement, but it will be three years later";

Talking about Zhou Xingchi, "When he is 65 years old, he will return to the big screen to direct and act."

01.

At the beginning of the movie "Prosecutors", a "school loan incident" was directly staged, and the camera directly showed the dark side of the girl being controlled by black-hearted loans.

The criminal, on the other hand, tidied up his clothes as if nothing had happened, and said flirtatiously, "It’s just a little girl’s entanglement."

It can be seen that the opening scale of the movie is not small.

And this is the first question that Tian Qiwen and director Mai Zhaohui threw to the other party when they got the script, "How big can the scale be?"

In their opinion, there are many fields and spaces worth exploring in the story of this theme, but if a lot of content cannot be talked about, then the story will be boring and the audience will not be satisfied. "After confirming these contents, we will continue to study how to create a good script."

As China’s first prosecution film from the perspective of prosecutors in the new era, "Prosecutorial Wind and Cloud" is not easy to film, even if it is endorsed by the Supreme People’s Procuratorate of China and supported by real events.

Unlike in the works of the public security police, the confrontation between you and me, this group of people is an important hub for connecting the front lines of the public security and court decisions.

Therefore, the script creation of "Procuratorial Fengyun" has been adjusted for a long time, "The previous script was more about the suspense part, and the investigation part was more prominent." But when it was about to start, Tian Qiwen suddenly found that such a creation was contrary to the theme of the prosecutor, "This is not a public security theme, and there cannot be too much content to investigate the case."

To this end, Tian Qiwen and Mai Zhaohui readjusted the script, expanding the original plan to shoot only one day of scenes, "After the adjustment, we shot for ten days." This adjustment is not a simple addition to the scene. The creative process must first follow the mainland court system to ensure that these contents can be seen.

"Fortunately, we finally did it." For Tian Qiwen, the creation of "Prosecutor Feng Yun" was extremely stressful, but it was precisely this pressure that brought him and Mai Zhaohui a lot of creativity.

02.

The first time he filmed in mainland China, Tian Qiwen was initially troubled by the cast. "My request is whether the actors are committed enough."

When the actor was confirmed, the script was still a complete male drama at first, "We just want to adjust the content and give full play to her role, not a simple cameo."

Tian Qiwen and the creative team were torn between Bai Baihe and Bai Baihe, "It must be watchable, so I kept adjusting the script."

Ultimately, the relationship between the two is not just a confrontation in court, but also a hidden emotional line.

"We have torn this relationship for a long time. After all, we are filming prosecutors, not their love." As the creator, Tian Qiwen is also very clear-headed.

Every actor in "Prosecutor Feng Yun" let Tian Qiwen see "investment".

He had collaborated with comedians before, and at the beginning, he still had scruples, "I felt a little awkward at first, and I always felt that he was a little out of place in the comedy." But when the camera turned on, "I don’t know him anymore, especially when he is so fierce in the film, I was scared when I sat in front of the monitor."

Tian Qiwen even "broke the news". In fact, at the beginning of the preparations for "Prosecutor Feng Yun", neither he nor director Mak Zhaohui considered Hong Kong actors. But he never expected that one day when he was on the crew, the styling teacher found Tian Qiwen and asked him to try on clothes, "I ordered the actor, why didn’t I know I was going to play the library director?"

At that time, the staff "pushed the blame" to the director, but no one thought the director could explain it clearly. A Rashomon-style casting selection actually led to the actor’s first original sound appearance on the mainland big screen. "In my previous movies with Zhou Xingchi, everyone saw the credit of the voice actor. After this performance, it made me very confident."

03.

When it comes to Tian Qiwen’s performance, all audiences can’t help but think of his comedy performance in Stephen Chow’s movie.

"In fact, when I debuted, I was filming a drama. Later, after we followed Stephen Chow, we did a lot of comedy, so we somehow felt that we had a sense of humor." As a golden supporting actor in Stephen Chow’s movie, Tian Qiwen felt that he had left the most breakthrough performance to Wu Jing.

It was Wu Jing’s first directorial debut, "He asked me to play the villain, and I want to play a martial arts film with him."

In that movie, the two had a lot of fights, "Wu Jing told me that only I could hit him on the big screen."

After many years, Wu Jing has become a director and actor with great box office appeal. "I still have a show appointment with him, but he has too many invitations now. We will cooperate after three years."

This kind of fate is always hard to describe, especially between him and Zhou Xingchi.

Tian Qiwen once said that he has worked with many filmmakers, and Zhou Xingchi is the one who has worked with him for the longest time. "In fact, I left Xinghui (Zhou Xingchi Company) for some other projects that I wanted to do, but then I went back to his" Mermaid "and" Journey to the West "series. Now it’s to see if he needs me, and we communicate every year."

As Zhou Xingchi’s senior partner, Tian Qiwen revealed in advance that Zhou Xingchi may "leave the mountain" to become an actor again at the age of 65.

Not only did the audience have expectations for the actor Zhou Xingchi, "He also wants to act, but he wants to play a different type for the audience, and his last one has already changed." If at that time, without Zhou Xingchi calling, Tian Qiwen admitted that all the partners who have worked together will gather again, "There are still 4 years, we have to plan carefully."

As for the current Tian Qiwen, he and his partner Mai Zhaohui will create more other projects first. In addition to "Prosecutor Feng Yun", another movie has been filmed and is waiting to be released.

"We worked together more than 20 years ago, and then we started a company together, but we didn’t care about it. He went to shoot’Infernal Affairs’ with me, and I went to develop with Zhou Xingchi, and now I just come back again."

The two filmmakers can now say that they meet at the peak, looking for a different creation in the best state. "We still have a lot of plans, and we will try different directions and markets."

On June 1, NIO quietly announced its May sales, and the share price fell by 0.60%. This was another decline after the share price of the second-generation ES6 fell by 9% on the day of listing. By June 5, the total market value had been less than 100 billion Hong Kong dollars.

From the head of sales/market value to the tail of new car makers, NIO only took 2-3 years.

The market value is less than half of Li Auto, which makes NIO, which lost 14.40 billion yuan last year and 44.60 billion in 5 years, on the verge of difficulties, and the cumulative loss is more than Tesla’s 15 years of establishment.

In 2022, NIO’s cash will decrease by 10 billion yuan, and as of the beginning of 2023, there will still be 40 billion yuan in cash in the company’s account. At such a "burning money" rate, I wonder how long NIO can support?

Li Bin, chairperson of NIO, actually knows very well. He said in an interview in April this year that,If this year’s work is not good, 24 years will become another 19 years, which means that NIO may be "back" in the ICU again.

After NIO went public on the Nasdaq, it once became the most valuable car company in China, and Li Bin (left) was no exception for a while.

Back in November 2020, NIO’s market value reached 72.84 billion US dollars (about 479.70 billion yuan), making it the highest car company in China in one fell swoop.

This can’t blame NIO’s current stock price, because sales are not awesome! In May this year, NIO only delivered 6,155 vehicles, a decrease of 7.6% month-on-month, ranking second to last among new car-making forces. This is the fourth consecutive month of decline, and it is getting farther and farther from the goal of "Wei 10,000".

The monthly sales of 3 models are about 10,000, and the 7 models are still around the 10,000, so NIO is dubbed "Wei 10,000".

"If NIO still 10,000 sales every month, Qin Lihong (president) and I will have to look for jobs." In early May this year, Li Bin also joked.

Li Bin and Qin Lihong are also very hard, but the high-end pure electric vehicle (above 300,000 especially above 400,000, such as ES6 plus optional super 400,000 yuan) market targeted by NIO is too small.

Regarding the problem of NIO, as the reader’s comment after the DearAuto article hit the nail on the head "Fishing where there are fish, otherwise it will be a dead end. Where there are fish? One is plug-in hybrid including range extension to solve the problem of mileage anxiety. One is to take a trolley within 150,000 to solve the problem of urban traffic, and the family has a second car. Where there are no fish, there are no fish in the more than 300,000 pure electric markets. Whether you are Wei Xiaoli, BYD Great Wall Geely, or Huawei, there are no fish. Wang Chuanfu said well, strategy is the most important, strategy is wrong, wasting money is small, wasted time is priceless."

I seriously suspect that this reader may be a Weilai owner who hates that iron cannot make steel, otherwise he will not be able to see the problem so clearly.

There is no universal standard for high-end pure electricity, which is generally considered to be more than 300,000 yuan, which is equivalent to luxury fuel vehicles.

NIO’s standard is higher – more than 400,000 yuan, and it often posted such forms last year to prove that it is a monopoly in this market.

In August last year, for example, NIO was still relatively popular, occupying the top and second place in the rankings, but the top 10 were imposed on less than 7,000 vehicles, all of which were given to NIO, and NIO could not support such a large company with more than 30,000 people.

Correspondingly, there are only 10,000 people in Ideal and Xiaopeng.

NIO also has an ET5 sedan that is more capable of playing, in the 300,000-400,000 range, the car claims to outsell BMW 3 Series, and the amount of insurance once exceeded 3 Series, but then sales fell rapidly.

In April, BMW sold nearly 12,000 3 Series, but only 4,293 ET5s, proving that the 30-400,000 pure electric market is not so optimistic.

Due to the unresolved issues of charging and battery life, pure electric vehicles are more suitable for small cars as the second scooter in the family, rather than pure electric vehicles such as NIO.

Of course, the popularity of big cars such as the Ideal L8 and D9 also shows that consumers can also pay for high-end big cars, but they are PHEVs.

The high-end is largely reflected in performance. For electric vehicles, improving performance becomes very simple, basically adding batteries and enhancing motors; while the interior is replaced by a large screen, just to see who has a larger screen and higher pixels.

The threshold has suddenly been lowered, which means that it is not as high-end valuable.

The demand for high-end pure electric cars, if there is one, is small. NIO worked hard, but to no avail. After the launch of ES6, ES8 sales plummeted; when ES7 came out, ES6 sales fell again; when ET5 came out, ET7 dropped sharply.

This is not a problem with the NIO family. Even the most powerful pure electric brand, Tesla, saw its million-dollar Model SX sales plunge after Model 3/Y came out.

Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi all performed poorly in the EV market. This is definitely not an accident. It is not that these products themselves are flawed, but that the market positioning is incorrect.

"We also know that high-end pure electric is a point of no return, but we can’t change it, it’s the decision of the global headquarters," a luxury brand head told DearAuto on condition of anonymity.

In addition, after three years of epidemic attacks, consumers are not as rich as manufacturers imagine, this year, no matter how the government at all levels to stimulate, car sales are always tepid.

According to the National Bureau of Statistics, the per capita disposable income of residents in 2022 was 36,883 yuan; this year, consumers seem to be even more short of money, and even if they have it, they will not dare to spend. The fire in Zibo during the May Day holiday also proved that ordinary people are "short of money", because the cost of going to Zibo is much cheaper than that of Sanya or Lijiang.

One of the reasons why NIO stood out in the early days was that it started early and had a first-mover advantage, which won the favor of the capital markets. The second relied on the ultimate service to create a unique city and build its high-end image. The power exchange model is the core of NIO’s service system, but this core may bring down NIO.

According to industry data, the cost of NIO’s first-generation replacement stations is about 2.50 million-3 million yuan, and the cost of second-generation replacement stations is about 1.50 million yuan (excluding batteries). NIO has established 205 first-generation replacement stations, and the number of second-generation replacement stations is 1,100. In this way, NIO has invested 21.625 billion in replacement stations. Including land rent and operating costs, NIO’s investment in replacement mode has exceeded 10 billion yuan.

In 2023, NIO plans to increase the number of new power stations from 400 to 1,000, with a new investment of 2 billion yuan.

"Kneeling and licking service" has no bottom line, it is difficult to get off the service, and the car owner is also spoiled.

NIO began to do some "tricks" on the service this year, including that the beta version of NOP + Enhanced Pilot Assistance will be switched from free use to paid subscription; the power exchange benefit will be changed from the original 6 times a month to 4 times a month free and no longer send home chargers.

The "backlash" came soon, and NIO’s sales in April and May did not exceed 7,000 units.

After the second-generation ES6 went on sale, ES7 owners quit (thinking that the ES6 was too cheap, affecting the residual value of ES7 used cars) and asked NIO for compensation. The owner replied to Li Bin and said: "My relationship with you is not that close. I am here to negotiate, not to talk."

Li Bin said publicly that this is impossible because he needs to invest in real money.

High-end is the tone of NIO electric vehicles. Li Bin has repeatedly emphasized that "NIO will not offer low-end vehicles, nor will it reduce prices."

But the auto industry is an industry that pays attention to scale. Li Bin is very clear in his heart, "In the long run, the sales of 2 million cars a year by car companies are the line of life and death. If you can’t see the hope of sales to this line, I think it will be difficult."

For NIO, the top priority is to sell more cars and cut costs to survive.

Due to NIO’s high-end attributes limiting its sales scale, its second brand, Alpine, and even its third brand, Firefly, are expected to be used primarily for impulse.

Let’s not say that multi-brand operation is a huge pit, and there are few successful precedents for Chinese and foreign automakers.

For NIO, going down is more difficult because it faces stronger competitors. In addition, mid- to low-end brands have higher cost requirements, which is not good at NIO.

According to NIO’s plan, the Alps brand will mainly target the price range of 20-300,000 yuan. And it is expected that products will be launched in 2024.

But competitors in this price range include BYD, Tesla, Extreme Krypton, Wei Brand, Deep Blue, and a large number of joint-venture electric vehicles.

Firefly is NIO’s car brand, which will be launched in Europe at that time, and is expected to be in the price range of 10-200,000 yuan.

The competition in this market is even more intense in China. Not only are there a bunch of pure electric vehicles including Aian and BYD, but also a large number of plug-in hybrid models. Wuling is also a mythical existence. (Text | DA Bin)
