Speaking of Shawn, people are no strangers. He and Wang Terry’s "Chopsticks Brothers" combined to create many divine songs, such as "Little Apple" and "old boys".

On January 29th, 2014, the propaganda song "Little Apple" in the movie "The Raptors of the Old Boys Crossing the River" directed, written and starred by Shawn went online. I didn’t expect this song to be popular with Chopsticks Brothers, and this brainwashing melody and simple lyrics instantly attracted everyone.

"You are my little apple, I can’t love you too much …" At that time, you can basically hear this lyric in the streets and alleys. The music is fresh and bright, the lyrics are catchy and the singing degree is extremely high.

This once made this song one of the favorites of domestic square dance aunts.

Xiao Yang was born in Chengde, Hebei Province on January 14th, 1980. His initial dream was to be a painter. In 1996, he came to Beijing, intending to be admitted to the Middle School Attached to the Central Academy of Fine Arts.

He lived in a small alley in Beijing, and lived in a basement hotel with his friends to save money. He spent all his youth in this alley.

I failed in the first year of high school, and finally entered the gate of the middle school attached to the Academy of Fine Arts in the second year. Shawn said that the years of education in the attached middle school have provided him with a particularly good motive force.

During high school, he once formed a band, which was one of his hobbies, and was therefore very popular at school.

However, after graduating from high school, he wanted to step into the directing industry, so he volunteered to choose the planning and directing major of Beijing Film Academy, and later achievements did prove that this choice was correct.

Shawn claimed that he was in arrears with his tuition fees during his freshman and sophomore years. In order to alleviate the pressure on his parents, he started to earn his own tuition fees from the third grade of the affiliated middle school, and worked as an art teacher during the holidays to make up for his living.

When he was in college, he also produced such excellent works as event planning "Caring for Rivers", and was selected for the Golden Calf Award of Taiwan China Times Planning with this film.

After graduating from Shawn University in 2005, he carefully planned for five years, during which he also cooperated with ChristianRandPhillips, Wang Gang and Guo Donglin.

After this period of time, his financial resources began to stabilize, and he also started the next life track. In 2007, the Chopsticks Brothers Group was established with Wang Terry.

Shawn called the establishment of this group willfulness outside of life. He thought it was fun to have such a group, which could sing and occasionally act. He didn’t expect it to be so popular in the future.

At that time, the video network rose, and they filmed a funny MV Memoirs of a Geisha for 6 minutes and uploaded it to Maopu. com, which won the special prize in the first podcast contest.

"old boys" is a youth inspirational online movie which was written, directed and performed by Shawn in 2010. Once it was broadcast, it was loved by the audience. The song of the same name "old boys" reminded everyone of their youth memories. This nostalgic and sad tune resonated with the audience and became a must-have song for people to go to KTV.

This success made people know the existence of Chopsticks Brothers, and their combination was no longer niche. The well-known scenes also changed their life direction.

Later, in 2011, he and Wang Terry collaborated again to launch the first New Year’s online movie "Father", which won many awards such as the 9th Film Huading Award and the China Best Microfilm Award.

With the constant arrival of fame and fortune, his mentality in his twenties is slowly changing, and people who had never been in contact with him at all began to get acquainted with himself.

He quipped that he should pretend to be more comfortable with himself, and unconsciously wanted to play what others wanted.

Shawn began to become more and more popular. The propaganda song "Little Apple" released by "The Raptors of Old Boys Crossing the River" in 2014 spread all over the streets and became a brainwashing divine comedy.

As a result, the Chopsticks Brothers became popular, and the names of Shawn and Wang Terry began to appear on all major stages. They became the busiest artists and even went abroad to enter the international market.

This also made Shawn feel overwhelmed and began to adjust his work focus. He tried to digest this "red" apple. Compared with professional singers, he was not good enough, so he went to learn vocal music. During that time, he was particularly dissatisfied with himself.

Different from singing on the stage with a guitar in high school, now he is on the professional stage, and he must be more demanding of himself.

At the same time, there are more and more questioning voices. In the same year, Chopsticks Brothers won the "Best International Pop Music of the Year" award at the 42nd National Music Festival. Some people say that the chopsticks brothers’ awards are given backstage, and their performances are not shown on TV, but broadcast during the planning period.

For a time, the online voice of doubt became louder and louder: this is a commercial speculation, the prize was bought, and so on. There are people in the industry who question how long the Divine Comedy will last and whether it can really take China culture out of the country.

Fortunately, Shawn was fashionable at that time, and he didn’t pay attention to these voices. In his eyes, the film shone into reality. He and Wang Terry supported each other and achieved each other. Like a combination name, they were indispensable.

He continued to appear on the big screen. In January 2015, he participated in detective chinatown directed by Chen Sicheng. His role as "Kuntai" was memorable, and his nonstandard Mandarin made people remember him. At this time, people found that Shawn was a good actor.

"I really enjoyed playing the role of Kuntai, and finally I can use this role to have fun." This is his first experience as an actor.

He began to study the career of an actor with his heart, and to face the transformation with a correct attitude. Before, Shawn would choose to put off the role that he needed to perform, but after detective chinatown, Xiao Yang officially entered the entertainment industry.

In January of the same year, he starred in the action comedy movie Super Express, and in 2016, he starred in Love Saint. 2018 comedy adventure detective series film "Chinatown Detective 2", in January, participated in the film "Fierce Worm Crossing the River" directed and performed by Xiao Shenyang; On January 21 ST, the comedy film "Weather Pre-explosion", which was written, directed and performed, was released nationwide.

From the previous non-mainstream to the current explosion, more and more directors began to look for him to act.

Until January 13th, 2023, Sheep Without A Shepherd, a plot crime movie starring him, was released. The appearance of the role of Li Weijie made Shawn’s acting skills rise to a higher level again.

With this film, he was nominated for the best actor in the 33rd China Golden Rooster Award. He talked about acting and thought it was a process of moving himself first and then passing it on to the audience.

He will be immersed in this role during acting, and sometimes he will unconsciously think in a role-based way even after the filming.

When it comes to Shawn, people no longer remember that he was a singer. The "little apple" that resounded in the streets has disappeared.

People’s evaluation of Shawn began to change from "Little Apple Shawn" to "It turned out that he was Shawn in that chopsticks brother".

After more than ten years, people began to regard him as an actor Shawn, and each of his characters was memorable.

Being an actor is a very important decision for Shawn, which is also a part he must go through to become a director.

But from the beginning of "detective chinatown", you don’t have to direct it yourself, but you appear on the big screen as a performer, and then you are sure of it.

Shawn’s first feeling was that he didn’t believe it, but he also felt very gratified.

His road as an actor began to go further and further, and missing the Golden Rooster Award was not a regret for him, but a better expectation.

He thinks he is not fashionable enough. As an actor, if he is really lucky enough to win this award, he will be uneasy.

Silently shoot more plays, and when you really reach that height, you will prove that you are an all-round actor, and you will have the confidence to accept it.

He continued to move forward as an actor. On January 12, 2023, the comedy crime movie Crowd starring Shawn, Andy Lau and Wan Qian was released. On the same day, Detective Chinatown 3 and Diary of Making a Rich were also released, and on January 17, manslaughter 2 was released.

The "face-changing" acting skills made everyone sit up and take notice of Shawn, faded from his youth at school, and his acting skills were tempered by one work after another.

He became popular all over the country with a song, but he didn’t feel complacent. Instead, he calmed down, shifted his focus, transformed himself into an actor, lived seriously and tried to improve himself.

"Youth is like a running river, and it’s too late to say goodbye once it’s gone. I’m only numb and I don’t have the blood of that year … "This is the lyrics in old boys.

The lyrics are true and thought-provoking, but Shawn still retains his original blood, trying new things again and again, and making great achievements again and again.

Whether it’s the ultimate interpretation presented to us in Sheep Without A Shepherd, or the detective who is in great contrast with himself in detective chinatown.

Shawn is always trying to find out where his limit is, step by step, and constantly proving to everyone that the passionate young man was not polished by life.

This is Shawn, a man who still faces life with enthusiasm after he has clearly understood life.

In Shawn’s new film "Escape from Youth", this film tells the story of the programmer He Liwei, played by Shawn, who developed a game by himself.

However, he disrupted the company’s plan, so he was forcibly sent to a mental rehabilitation hospital called "Youth" by the company.

In Shawn’s view, this is an adventure belonging to He Liwei. On his personal Weibo, he wrote his creative words: How many joys, sorrows, and sorrows were separated from immersing himself in his own works and completing his breakthrough in youth?

In reality, why not meet all kinds of people? I just hope that everyone can stick to it with enthusiasm and finally complete their dreams.

　　Tomorrow, our mobile phone will be screened by Buffett again!

　　At 22:15 Beijing time on May 4th, the annual shareholders’ meeting of Berkshire Hathaway will be held in Omaha, USA. It is estimated that about 30,000 shareholders will attend, and millions of people will watch it online. The most noteworthy issues of this shareholders’ meeting include:

　　Who is Buffett’s successor? — — Bashen is 88 years old and Munger is 95 years old.

　　What about Berkshire’s more than $110 billion in cash? — — Look at the company’s share price of $320,000. Do you still think Maotai is expensive?

　　The repurchase scale will be as high as $100 billion? — — There are not many good companies worth buying, so I have to buy myself.

　　However, for A-share investors, they may be more concerned about this question: What does Buffett think of the China market? Which stocks of A shares meet its stock selection criteria?

　　Which A shares can enter the eyes of the law?

　　There are many criteria for Buffett’s stock selection, but there are clear quantitative criteria. He only said one sentence, that is, the annual return on net assets (ROE) is greater than 20% for 10 consecutive years.

　　The so-called return on equity (ROE) is the ratio of company profits to shareholders’ equity. It represents the investment income of investors, in short, how much money the enterprise can earn for investors.

　　ROE is a measure of a company’s long-term profitability. The higher the ROE, the higher the net profit it earns with the same shareholder capital investment. According to Coca-Cola’s standard, that is, keeping the ROE above 20% for 10 consecutive years, it is the company that Buffett may like.

　　So, which companies in A shares meet Buffett’s standards?

　　Wind data shows that in the 10 years from 2009 to 2019, among the listed companies whose ROE (deduction/dilution) continuously exceeds 20%, there are only five listed companies in A shares, namely Kweichow Moutai, Haitian Weiye, Gree Electric, Yanghe and Chengde Lulu.

　　The average share price increase of these five listed companies in the past 10 years is 690.49%, and the annualized rate of return is 22.97%. The biggest increase is Kweichow Moutai, which rose 12 times in 10 years, followed by Gree Electric, which rose more than 11 times in 10 years.

　　If we relax the ROE standard to 15%, that is, we will keep the ROE above 15% for 10 consecutive years. So, how many companies in A shares meet this standard?

　　Wind data shows that in the 10 years from 2009 to 2019, there were 14 listed companies with ROE (deduction/dilution) exceeding 15% continuously, namely Shuanghui Development, Kweichow Moutai, Haitian Weiye, Hikvision, Gree Electric, Huadong Medicine, Yanghe, Chengde Lulu, Hengrui Pharma, Chongda Technology, dongfeng shares, Fuyao Glass and so on.

　　The average share price increase of these 14 listed companies in the past 10 years is 551.72%, and the annualized rate of return is 20.62%. Among them, Hengrui Pharma, Kweichow Moutai and Gree Electric rose more than 10 times, while Huadong Medicine, Hikvision and Golden Mantis rose more than 5 times.

　　Is Bashen’s strategy unacceptable?

　　In the past 10 years, what is the investment income of Warren Buffett?

　　According to media calculations, if an investor bought a dollar of Berkshire stock 10 years ago, the return today is about $2.4, but if this dollar is invested in the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index Fund, the return today is about $3.2. In other words, in the past 10 years, the income from investing in Berkshire has not been as high as that from investing in the S&P 500 index fund.

　　In 2018, the worst performance of global financial assets in the past 100 years, the "stock god" seems to be unhappy. Suffering from various "thunder" such as Apple’s performance falling short of expectations and Kraft Heinz’s performance changing face, Berkshire lost more than $25 billion in the fourth quarter of 2018, but still earned more than $4 billion in the whole year.

　　But in A-share market, Buffett’s stock picking strategy still seems feasible.

　　In the past decade, 108 A-share stocks have increased more than 5 times, and 29 have increased more than 10 times. The median ROE of these 29 stocks is 14.88%. During this period, the Shanghai Composite Index rose by 24.72%, the Shanghai and Shenzhen 300 Index rose by 50.2%, the CSI 500 Index rose by 74.59%, and the Shenzhen dividend index rose by 132.51%.

　　Obviously, those companies with long-term earning ability and dividend-paying ability can surpass the market if they buy at a reasonable price. However, it should be pointed out that value investment is by no means equal to an ROE index, and the stocks selected according to it are not necessarily suitable investment targets, but only help us find out those good companies more easily.

　　The above data illustrates two problems:

　　First, as Buffett said: "By investing in index funds regularly, an investor who knows nothing can usually beat most professional fund managers." Buffett has recommended index funds for more than ten times.

　　In Buffett’s view, the vast majority of investors rarely invest in index funds, and as a result, their performance in investing in stocks is mostly just mediocre, or even disastrous. There are three main reasons for the loss of investment stocks:

　　1. The cost is too high, investors buy and sell too frequently, or the expenses are too large;

　　2. Investment decisions are made according to gossip or market trends, rather than after careful consideration and quantitative analysis of listed companies;

　　3, blindly chasing up and down, buying or selling at the wrong time.

　　Second, practice has proved that the companies with the strongest earning power in A-shares can bring rich long-term returns to investors.

　　The overall growth level of A-share listed companies is better than the average level of social enterprises. The long-term stock price trend charts of leading enterprises such as Gree Electric, Vanke A, China Merchants Bank, China Ping An and Fuyao Glass are all consistent with the development path of enterprises.

　　The method of value investment has not failed in A-shares. In fact, A-shares will create a good opportunity for value investors to pick up bargains every few years, making it easier for investors to meet good prices. Numerous masters have emphasized that all investment is to find a good industry, a good company and a good price.

　　Finally, Buffett has bought two China stocks so far — — China Petroleum and BYD.

　　In 2003, Buffett bought H shares of China Petroleum at a price of HK$ 1.6, and cleared the position when the share price reached HK$ 13.5 in 2007, with a four-year income of more than 7 times (the reinstatement factor has been considered, the same below). When Buffett bought it, the P/E ratio of China Petroleum was only 5 times, while when China Petroleum was listed on A-share in 2007, the P/E ratio of 48 yuan’s opening price was as high as 63 times.

　　In 2008, Buffett subscribed for 225 million shares of BYD at a price of about HK$ 8 per share. At present, Buffett still holds shares in BYD, and its latest share price is HK$ 53.55, and its income has exceeded five times. When Buffett bought BYD shares, the corresponding P/E ratio was only 10.2 times. At present, its latest P/E ratio is 39.29 times.

　　On May 27th, Sichuan Wolong National Nature Reserve Administration released a series of photos and videos of the world’s only white giant panda, including its front photo and rare scenes such as its frame with a pair of giant pandas and suspected mating and fighting with another wild giant panda.

　　In April 2019, a wild infrared trigger camera at an altitude of about 2,000 meters captured the silhouette of a white giant panda for the first time in Wolong National Nature Reserve, Sichuan Province. This is the only white giant panda found so far. The reserve quickly carried out special monitoring, and nearly 1,000 effective monitoring data have been collected. The photos and videos released this time directly reflect some of the activities of the white giant panda, and also show from one side that the quality of the giant panda habitat in Wolong Nature Reserve is very high, providing sufficient food and a safe habitat for wild giant pandas.

　　The white giant panda is facing the photo. Photo courtesy of Sichuan Wolong National Nature Reserve Administration

　　　First release of the front photo of the white giant panda

　　"We have repeatedly judged the route, laid out and adjusted the infrared camera site. Through four years of monitoring, we have basically mastered the activity law of this white giant panda." Tan Yingchun, executive of Sichuan Wolong White Giant Panda Protection Research Project, said that in the past two years since the white giant panda was first photographed in 2019, all the images of this white giant panda captured by infrared trigger cameras, either walking in the snow, or "meditating", or crossing the dense forest and small river ditch, were just the back, or the hips and backs that flashed by.

　　In the series of photos and videos released on the 27th, the frontal photo of the white giant panda appeared for the first time.

　　In the "selfie perspective", the white giant panda has a serious expression. On its round, white face, pale pink eyes and pink eye sockets look intense, without dark circles, "like a giant panda who likes to go to bed early and get up early"; A circle of white hair protruding around the eyes has the effect of enlarging the eyes visually; The nose is an inverted triangle of pink, with a circle of black lines around it and a white kiss, which makes it look more serious and restrained than other giant pandas.

　　In the "he pats the angle of view", the eyes of the white bear cat are almost hard to open due to the reflection of sunlight in the snow, the whole body hair is golden white, it wriggles its chubby body, and the skin of its four bare feet, which should have been black, has also turned into pink white.

　　Another video shows that the white giant panda is covered with a layer of white snow, which blends with its coat color and falls on its eyes like natural white eyelashes. It dragged a bamboo under the tree and ate it.

　　"Albinism is widespread in various groups of vertebrates, usually due to gene mutation of individual animals, which hinders the synthesis of pigments in the body and appears white, golden white or light gold in external form." Li Sheng, a researcher at Peking University College of Life Sciences, said that whether this albino gene will be further transmitted in the local giant panda population needs to be observed and explored through continuous field monitoring.

　　Three giant pandas are in the same frame. Photo courtesy of Sichuan Wolong National Nature Reserve Administration

　　　Suspected to have photographed a white giant panda in the same frame as his mother.

　　A set of videos released on the same day showed that one evening, the white giant panda broke into the nest of a pair of panda mothers and children. The panda mother in the tree hole gave a very short warning, and the panda cub did not hesitate to jump up. The white giant panda screamed while retreating. After watching the cubs run away after chasing the white giant panda, the mother panda continued to tickle calmly without stepping out of the tree hole.

　　After 40 minutes, the white panda turned back to the tree hole alone, and the female panda took the initiative to drive away. Later, from time to time outside the screen, pandas tried to get close, and they screamed weakly. Occasionally, the mother panda stood up and gave a low roar impatiently, giving a response of driving away. There are also several images showing that after the mother panda left, the white panda returned to the front of the tree hole to smell it carefully; The panda cubs sniffed carefully before returning to the tree hole; Panda cubs explore along the footprints of white giant pandas.

　　"There is a possibility that this female panda is the mother of a white panda." Wei Rongping, a professor-level senior engineer at the China Giant Panda Conservation Research Center, said that the cubs in the picture are about 1 to 2 years old, while the size of the white giant panda is close to that of an adult. At that time, Wolong had entered the estrus season of wild giant pandas. At this time, when an adult giant panda approached or invaded, the female panda with cubs would show strong aggression, and she would rush forward and violently yell and expel them, and even fight with them. This female panda’s performance is extremely "calm", which is not in line with the general law. Only when the mother smells the child and feels safe will she be so peaceful.

　　Wei Rongping introduced that previous field follow-up studies have found that the mother panda and her children have a lot of time to live in an overlapping nest, and individuals who live independently from their mothers will go home to visit their mothers many times in three or four years. It will keep showing kindness and want to be close, and its mother will often silently accept or gently drive it away, while its brothers and sisters will be more willing to chase it. "These are also in line with the developments recorded by infrared cameras. The white giant panda is extremely good, but it is firmly rejected by her mother." Wei Rongping said.

　　　Albino mutation did not affect healthy growth and social activities.

　　One day in mid-spring, a camera collected a total of 66 photos, recording the process of suspected mating and fighting between a white giant panda and another wild giant panda.

　　At noon, the white giant panda arrived there first, searched everywhere and stayed for more than a minute. At 15 o’clock, the white giant panda returned here again, made a "smell mark" and left. Half an hour later, the white giant panda chased a wild giant panda into the area, and then began to wrestle. This wild individual is smaller than the white giant panda, and the wild giant panda once bit the back of the white giant panda.

　　"March to May every year is the season for them to courtship and mate. I tend to think that they are mating." Shi Xiaogang, director of Mujiangping Protection Station of Sichuan Wolong National Nature Reserve Administration, said that giant pandas are solitary animals. Generally speaking, when wild giant pandas meet or fight for territory, they mainly yell and scare, and there is less direct physical contact. This kind of fighting occurs in the breeding season, usually when pandas are courting or mating, and there is a behavior of biting their backs in the picture, which is relatively easy to happen during mating.

　　"In the past four years, we have collected nearly 1,000 effective monitoring data, and recorded the crossing trajectory of this white giant panda and several wild giant pandas, as well as its behaviors of eating bamboo, marking the trunk and suspected mating or fighting." Liu Mingchong, a professor-level senior engineer in Sichuan Wolong National Nature Reserve, introduced.

　　"We are also starting from the micro, conducting a more systematic study on it, collecting its feces and hair, and further analyzing the relevant biological information of this white giant panda through DNA testing." Tan Yingchun said.

　　"The white giant panda not only survived healthily, but also had normal communication and interaction with other wild giant pandas in the region. It seems that the albino mutation has not affected its healthy growth and social activities." Li Sheng said that this also shows from the side that the quality of the giant panda habitat in Wolong is very high, which not only has sufficient food resources, but also provides a safe habitat for wild giant pandas, reflecting the value and effectiveness of the reserve.

" Yang Jianjun, editor-in-chief of Automobile and Sports Magazine, said that in addition to the conventional series-parallel single-gear and multi-gear hybrid systems, some enterprises continued to innovate and upgrade on the basis of the original series-parallel hybrid technology, forming the characteristics of their own technical attributes, and diversified configurations formed a leading trend in the industry. In the field of pure fuel engines, joint venture brands still have fine models shortlisted, which is obviously different from the direction of independent brands.

　　() The original technology increases, and the R&D strength of local car companies highlights.

　　This year, the number of original power system technologies shortlisted increased, which brought many surprises to the expert judges. "In the past, when enterprise engineers introduced products or technologies, they liked to say: In what way do we do better than others? Now people often say: Which technologies are original?" Blue River, a senior auto media person, said in one sentence the distinctive features of the power system that was shortlisted this year.

　　Senior auto media person Blue RiverTalking about the shortlisted power system this year

　　This is indeed the case. In this year’s hot mixed market, most car companies began to focus on creating products with more distinctive technical characteristics based on vehicle and market demand. For example, Hi4 plug-in technology of Great Wall Motor provides consumers with cost-effective products with four-wheel drive function at the price of two-wheel drive through configuration innovation; FAW Hongqi 20TD hybrid engine fully considers the demand of high-end brand vehicles for power and comfort, and achieves breakthroughs in high efficiency, high comfort, high intelligence and high lean; Chery Kunpeng super-performance hybrid C-DM was developed at the beginning of research and development, focusing on the simultaneous development of domestic and foreign markets; BYD, as always, adheres to the "electricity-oriented" plug-in and hybrid scheme, and specially builds a DMO super hybrid off-road platform for the off-road market, completely releasing the imagination space of "electricity" and reconstructing the existing off-road market structure and technical benchmark with stronger electric driving force and off-road performance.

　　Dongfeng r&d team at the test site

　　What is even more rare is that Dongfeng Motor’s Mach-electric hybrid DH-i third-generation hybrid technology adopts the industry’s first "series-parallel+power shunt" configuration, and creatively uses power shunt to shift gears without using clutches and complex shifting mechanisms, which can achieve the ultimate balance of fuel consumption, power, NVH and other performances in all road conditions and full speed domain, and realize In this evaluation, Dongfeng’s young R&D team was unanimously appreciated by the judges.

　　Professor and doctoral supervisor of School of Mechanical Engineering, Tianjin University, Yao Chunde, deputy director of the expert evaluation committee of the "China Heart" annual top ten engine and hybrid system selection.Introduce this year’s real vehicle test live.

　　The technical route and technical features of this year’s shortlisted engines and hybrid systems have reflected the complete, rational and mature R&D ideas of enterprises in development positioning, technical route determination and future product planning. "Even if the technical routes of autonomous car companies are the same, they have their own characteristics in technical details." Yao Chunde, a professor at the School of Mechanical Engineering, Tianjin University, and a doctoral supervisor, said that we have seen different technical means in the same EGR and thermal management technology. Some enterprises adopt the innovation of materials, some adopt the innovation of configuration design, and some make great efforts in calibration.

　　On-site discussion between judges and car company guests

　　"At present, there are more and more hybrid models on the market. In this field, independent car companies are ahead of joint venture brands, and many companies have established unique hybrid routes, branding their respective hybrid technologies with technical DNA." Han Zhiyu, a professor at Tongji University and a member of the International Society of Automotive Engineers, said.

　　() The cost is gradually leveled, and the fully rolled fuel oil is mixed.

　　Among the short-listed pure fuel vehicles, there are also many good power systems. SAIC-GM Cadillac CT6 equipped with 2.0T gasoline engine, in the test drive, experts generally believe that it has abundant power, sensitive accelerator pedal response and excellent NVH performance. SAIC-GM’s calibration method, which combines software and hardware well, has been affirmed by experts.

　　Xu Min, Dean of Automotive Engineering Research Institute of Shanghai Jiaotong University and Director of Expert Evaluation Committee of "China Heart" Top Ten Engines and Hybrid Systems of the Year.On-site comments on the real vehicle test this year.

　　However, there are also joint ventures that have been spit out by many judges in this real car test. In the global market, Honda is the first car company to enter the plug-in hybrid market. However, in this real car test, the performance of Haoying E: PHEV equipped with 2.0L plug-in hybrid system of Guangqi Honda is obviously compared with the products of its own brand. "As Honda’s fourth-generation hybrid technology, its power is obviously insufficient, and it is very different from domestic car companies in NVH and other aspects." Xu Min, Dean of Automotive Engineering Research Institute of Shanghai Jiaotong University and Director of Expert Evaluation Committee of "China Heart" Top Ten Engines and Hybrid Systems, is outspoken.

　　The competitiveness of the blended products of China car companies in cost makes the judges more excited. Among the finalists, the lowest price of Changan Automobile Qiyuan A05 is less than 90,000 yuan, which makes experts feel incredible. SAIC Roewe D7 and Chery Fengyun A8 also attracted the attention of experts. Both plug-in hybrids, these three models have been well received by experts in terms of design, interior configuration and power itself.

　　"Our blended products can make the price less than 90,000 yuan. No matter from the advanced technology or cost, we have completely crushed pure fuel vehicles. This means that we have a competitive advantage in the global market! " Xin Jun, founder of Yisen Technology and co-founder of Huaying New Energy, said. Xin Jun also praised the SAIC Roewe D7 equipped with a 1.5L plug-in hybrid system: "In actual driving, the driving experience of traditional fuel vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles is completely different. The switch from electricity to oil is very smooth, the power system matches the whole vehicle very well, and the acceleration performance of 100 kilometers is also very good. "

　　"After the test drive of Fengyun A8, Equation Leopard and Fengshen Haohan, I feel that my own brand has improved the power system technology and manufacturing capability of the whole industry to a new level through the plug-in technology." Li Liguang, a professor at Tongji University, a doctoral supervisor, a fellow of the International Society of Automotive Engineering, and deputy director of the expert evaluation committee of the "China Heart" annual Top Ten Engine and Hybrid System Selection, said.

　

　　"Although the plug-in hybrid technology has more controllers, motors and other components than the traditional internal combustion engine, the overall cost of hybrid technology in the whole industry has decreased, making its popularization possible. With the help of the motor, the engine can do subtraction and focus on the improvement of energy consumption performance. " Zu Bingfeng, director of Tianjin Internal Combustion Engine Research Institute, said.

　　In the interview with corporate guests that day, we also learned that some joint venture partners of enterprises have discussed the cooperation of electrification technology with them. Whether it is the advanced technology, cost control, even the stability of quality, and the understanding of users, China automobile enterprises have shown their competitiveness in the field of blending.

　　Test site

　　Suddenly, like a night wind blowing, as if the pear trees blooming. In 2023, blended products emerged in China market, which became the new automobile sales force. From January to August this year, the sales volume of plug-in hybrid cars in China has exceeded that of last year, reaching 1.529 million, an increase of 86.9% year-on-year. In the "China Heart" 2023 Top Ten Engines and Hybrid Systems shortlisted for the real vehicle test, we really saw the hybrid technology route with a hundred flowers blooming. We expect these technologies not only to take root and sprout, but also to flourish and open up a new world.

　　Gui Junsong, Editor-in-Chief of China Automobile Newspapermake a speech

　　Gui Junsong, editor-in-chief of China Automobile Newspaper, said that the "China Heart" annual top ten engine and hybrid system selection, together with "Ward Top Ten Engine" and "International Engine of the Year", is the only automobile power system selection in China, which witnessed the history of automobile power development in China. “‘ China Heart ’ The selection is not only a selection activity of industry motivation, but also a platform for technical exchange and cooperation within the industry. I hope I can use ‘ China Heart ’ The annual testing activity is an opportunity for more auto companies and auto parts companies to learn more about Gaoyou and create opportunities for mutual cooperation. " He said.

On September 1, in addition to Tesla and BYD, the new force car companies released their sales in the past month. Like last month, the sales ranking of the new car-making forces is full of variables.

Judging from the existing rankings, Nezha Auto and Zero Run Auto continue to lead, Weilai Auto has stabilized its sales in August, Xpeng Motors’s performance is slightly weak, and LI is seriously behind. In addition, the growth rate of Ai ‘an, AITO and Krypton is particularly rapid.

Ai’ an and Nezha are in the upper position, and Wei Lai stabilized in August

In the past August, the sales volume of Ai ‘an once again broke 20,000. According to the sales data released by Ai ‘an, the overall sales volume in August was 27,021 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 133%, reaching a new high. From January to August, the cumulative sales volume has reached 152,305 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 134%.

Nezha Automobile continued to outperform Weixiaoli, delivering 16,017 vehicles, up 142% year-on-year. Among them, 5,781 vehicles were delivered by Nezha U Car Series and 10,236 vehicles were delivered by Nezha V Car Series. Excluding Nezha’s ability to make money, it is a "dark horse".

The zero-running cars that followed closely in August delivered a total of 12,525 vehicles, exceeding 180% year-on-year. Monthly delivery ranked second, hitting a record high in April. At the same time, the cumulative delivery volume from January to August 2022 also reached 76,563 vehicles, rising from the fourth place to the third place.

Weilai Automobile delivered a total of 10,677 new cars in August, up 81.6% year-on-year and 6.22% quarter-on-quarter. Compared with the delivery volume in June and July this year, the month-on-month increase in August was not significant, but the delivery volume showed a warming trend.

From January to August this year, Weilai delivered a total of 71,556 new cars, a year-on-year increase of 28.3%. By the end of August, Weilai vehicles had delivered 238,626 vehicles. According to the official, the 2022 ES8, ES6 and EC6 equipped with Alder intelligent system and the new car Weilai ES7 have been delivered one after another, and the delivery of the intelligent electric flagship car ET7 is also stepping up. Weilai’s product switching season has basically ended this year.

On the whole, Weilai can’t be said to be brilliant in August, but at least it stabilized its sales after completing the product update.

Tucki’s promotion is also weak, and I want to roll myself.

Compared with Weilai, Tucki and the ideal new and old models have a greater response.

In August, Xpeng Motors delivered a total of 9,578 vehicles, ranking lower. Although it increased by 33% year-on-year, the chain decreased by 16.89%. Among them, Tucki P7 delivered 5,745 vehicles, Tucki P5 delivered 2,678 vehicles and Tucki G3 series delivered 1,155 vehicles. At the same time, the cumulative delivery volume in the first eight months of this year was 90,085 vehicles, which has been surpassed by the cumulative delivery volume of automobiles in Nezha.

It is worth noting that this is the result of Tucki’s price reduction promotion since July. In June and July this year, the monthly sales volume of Tucki was 15,295 and 11,524 respectively, and the result of less than 10,000 vehicles in August showed that low-key price reduction could not stop its downward trend.

At the same time, there may also be reasons for the listing of new cars. According to the plan, Tucki G9 will be officially listed in September this year and is expected to be delivered in October. Therefore, although Jin Jiu has entered this month, Tucki may still be under pressure.

Compared with Tucki, LI’s sales volume in August hit a new low since the delivery of 4,323 vehicles in May 2021.

LI delivered a total of 4,571 vehicles in August, down 52% year-on-year and 56% quarter-on-quarter. The cumulative delivery volume this year is 75,396 vehicles. Among the five mainstream new energy vehicle companies, the delivery volume of LI dropped the most in August, compared with 10,422 vehicles in July.

There are roughly two theories on the market about the reasons for the sharp decline in ideal sales. First of all, there are many competing products for new cars recently, and both M7 and Tengshi D9 may shake the users who were originally optimistic about their ideals.

Secondly, the mode of "only relying on ONE model to conquer the world" in LI has been broken. After the ideal L9 goes on the market, it may cause users in Li ONE to choose upwards. However, Ideal delivered the flagship SUV Ideal L9 in August, but the new car was delivered only on August 30th, which contributed little to the sales of that month.

At the same time, the L8, LI’s third production car with similar positioning to Li ONE, will be released soon. Shen Yanan, co-founder and president of LI, said that the Ideal L8 will be released in early November this year, and the delivery will start in the same month. This has led some ideal car owners to choose to wait and see, and to understand it from another angle is also the result of their ideal self-volume.

AITO asked the world to break through ten thousand, and krypton followed closely.

AITO, which has also received much attention, has seen a rapid increase in sales under the blessing of Huawei. Aito delivered 10,045 vehicles in August, up 12,778% year-on-year and nearly 40% quarter-on-quarter, and its sales volume exceeded 10,000 vehicles for the first time.

At present, there are two models on sale in the world: M5 and M7, of which the first batch of delivery was started on August 24th. Last month, Cyrus sold more than 10,000 yuan, or mainly M5, and at the same time, it also relied on Cyrus Phoenix Factory to start production, which released some sales of M7.

Geely Automobile’s Krypton also caught up in August. The sales volume reached 7,166 vehicles, up 42.7% from the previous month, and the cumulative delivery reached 37,205 vehicles.

Although there is only one model of Krypton 001 on sale at present, its delivery volume is also increasing step by step. The official also revealed that after the order of Krypton 001 broke through 10,000 in April and July, the large order of Krypton 001 (a non-refundable deposit of 5,000 yuan) continued to break through 10,000 in August.

In addition, Dongfeng’s Lantu delivered a total of 2,429 new cars in August, up 495% year-on-year and 35% quarter-on-quarter. Lantu did not announce the total sales volume this year, but only revealed the cumulative delivery volume of 17,891 vehicles since the first delivery in August 2021. Zhiji, a subsidiary of SAIC, sold 1,007 vehicles in August. Since the nationwide delivery was started in mid-June, Zhiji L7 has delivered 2,058 vehicles, ranking at the bottom of the list.

As can be seen from the delivery volume in August, some new energy vehicle companies are still happy and some people are worried, the ranking is once again disrupted, and the competition is intensifying. Their fluctuating sales also suggest that there are still many uncertainties in the auto market in the second half of the year.

　　[Aika motor　information　Car selection　map storage]

　　Aika Motorcycle has learned that the final version of the model of Qianjiang Motorcycle and Harley-Davidson has now been settled. It is understood that the car will be divided into two displacement models, 350cc and 500cc, equipped with an in-line two-cylinder engine, and has a strong American Flat Track style in terms of design. The final names of the models are likely to be X350 and X500.

　　It is not difficult to see that both models are designed in retro streetcar style. It is rumored that Harley is solely responsible for the appearance. It can be seen that it has a good performance in the overall texture and completeness, and the overall style highlights the modern sports American Tracker style.

　　Tracker style originated in the United States. When British knights were still shuttling between cafes, Americans began to race around in the oval mud called Flat Track. Therefore, the original Tracker models were all launched by American brands, and Harley is the brand that will carry forward Tracker. Judging from the exposure pictures, the cooperation between Harley and Qianjiang seems to be awakening the X series, and the names of the two cars are likely to be X350 and X500.

　　We can see that Qianjiang has made frequent moves in international cooperation. Whether it acquired Benelli, a century-old Italian motorcycle company, or cooperated with brands such as MV AGUSTA, Harley and Peugeot successively, it has empowered itself with world-leading technology, manufacturing and quality control standards, and produced cars with higher technology, better design and higher grade that represent China brands. Although some problems will inevitably be exposed in the process of progress, it is still one of the most potential and fastest-growing companies in China’s Mo Enterprise Corps.
