　　BEIJING, Beijing, May 10 (Xinhua)-"44% of fraudulent short messages come from paragraph 170/171". In the past month, the serious problem of telecom fraud in paragraph 170/171 in virtual operator has aroused great public and official concern. “‘ 170/171’ Do you dare to answer the phone at the beginning? " Worried, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, after interviewing relevant enterprises, recently issued a document asking virtual operator to complete the work of re-registration of user identity information within one month. According to a survey conducted by a reporter from Zhongxin. com (WeChat WeChat official account: cns2012), at present, real-name registration system, virtual operator is facing a series of technical screening problems, and the phenomenon of non-real name sales still exists, but the real-name registration system degree of "170/171" has been improved.

　　No.170/171 Duan Cheng Telecom Fraud New Label Users are afraid to answer when they see "170/171"

　　Tencent’s mobile phone housekeeper security experts found through big data monitoring that "nearly 44% of fraudulent SMS messages came from virtual operator’s 170/171 paragraph." Behind this data is that paragraph 170/171 has become a new label of telecom fraud. In the daily monitoring, the Anti-telecom Fraud Center of Guangzhou Public Security Bureau found that the numbers starting with 170 and 171 have become high-risk telephones for telecom fraud.

　　In the past month, with the risk warnings issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the public security departments, as well as the media and WeChat friends circle’s reports and publicity on the fraudulent practices of paragraph 170/171, the public’s vigilance against paragraph 170/171 fraud has been greatly improved.

　　Mr. Chen, who is engaged in the publishing industry in Beijing, told the reporter of Zhongxin.com, "There are two friends around me who have been cheated by the fraudulent phone call in paragraph 170. Now I dare not answer the phone call in paragraph 170, let alone click to view the text message sent by paragraph 170."

　　"Excuse me, do you need a loan? Do you need to invest in financial management? … …” Through investigation, the reporter found that paragraph 170/171 was used by fraudsters and also by some enterprises for marketing, which became annoying phone calls and text messages for the public. Several Beijing taxi drivers and supermarket shopping aunts interviewed randomly by reporters all said, "Recently, the number of calls received from various investment and wealth management or some commodity promotion in paragraph 170 has increased significantly, and I don’t know how to know my number."

　　Fraud takes advantage of the victim’s greed and cheapness to pretend to be a special subsidy issued by the government.

　　According to the fraud alert data released by the Anti-telecom Fraud Center of Guangzhou Public Security Bureau last week, there were 93 telecom fraud alerts involving paragraph 170 last week, among which the most prominent fraud methods were pretending to be government departments to issue special subsidies and pretending to be teachers to say that children needed surgery fees for injuries. There were 87 cases of telecom fraud involving paragraph 171, of which 67% were fraudulent by sending short messages with Trojan links.

　　According to Zhongan Online, at 19 o’clock on April 25, Mr. Feng suddenly received a text message: "××××, your child’s performance at school has dropped. Please click the link below to check the score." Mr. Feng looked at the number that sent the short message. It was a number that started with 171 and belonged to Hefei. Mr. Feng casually clicked on the link attached to the short message, but I didn’t expect it to open. Not long after, the bank card bound by the mobile phone sent a reminder message saying that 2000 yuan in the card was taken away.

　　According to reports, the telecom fraud in paragraph 170/171, pretending to be a government department to issue special subsidies, pretending to be a teacher to say that children need surgery fees, credit card withdrawals, handling large credit cards, and neonatal subsidies, all take advantage of the victim’s greed for benefits.

　　The police reminded the general public that when receiving a phone call or text message at the beginning of such a number segment, they should verify the real identity of the other party, don’t click on the link in the text message easily, don’t transfer money or make online transactions casually according to the requirements of the other party, and install mobile phone security protection software as soon as possible to prevent being cheated.

　　When the official rectification is in progress, the real-name registration of section 170/171 should be completed before the end of May.

　　In fact, on April 7th, the Network Security Administration of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Information and Communication Development Department, and the Information and Communication Administration, together with the Beijing Communications Administration, urgently interviewed three mobile communication resale enterprises (virtual operator) that were not implemented in real-name registration system. The three companies are required to immediately conduct a comprehensive investigation on the development of the company’s real-name registration system and seriously carry out rectification.

　　On April 27th, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology further issued the Notice on Strengthening Standardized Management to Promote the Healthy Development of Mobile Communication Resale Business, further requiring resale enterprises, that is, virtual operator, to immediately carry out self-examination and self-correction, and complete the work of re-registration of user identity information for telephone numbers that were not registered in real name or falsely registered in the previous period within one month.

　　At the same time, the notice made it clear that resale enterprises should strengthen the supervision and management of entity and network agency channels, strictly enforce the access conditions of agency channels, distribute uniform signs for agency channels, and prohibit the signing agency channels from developing subordinate agents without authorization. If a resale enterprise goes through the network access formalities through physical marketing channels, it must verify and automatically enter the user identity information through the second-generation ID card identification equipment, and it is forbidden to manually enter the ID card information. If you go through the network access procedures, you should verify the user’s identity in strict accordance with the relevant requirements. Resale enterprises should establish a regular self-inspection system for real-name registration and increase the inspection of their own marketing and principal-agent channels.

　　Virtual operator: Rectifying and benefiting the development of the industry faces technical screening problems.

　　According to the public information of the domestic virtual operator platform, since April, most virtual operator have started self-examination and self-correction, and the real-name registration system situation of the virtual number segment has been improved to some extent. A president of virtual operator, who asked not to be named, told the reporter of Zhongxin.com on the 9th that the work in real-name registration system is related to the immediate interests of users and the healthy development of communication enterprises and industries. The company has raised the standards of rectification and further strengthened the implementation of the work in real-name registration system.

　　However, the process of strengthening real-name registration system in virtual operator is facing the difficult problem of technical means screening. According to an employee of a marketing department in virtual operator, the second-generation ID card reader distributed by the company to offline channel vendors has been cracked, and it is currently working with relevant enterprises and departments to make up for the leak.

　　When the reporter visited a newsstand selling virtual number segments in Beijing, the newsstand sales staff said that they could help to handle a virtual mobile phone number of segment 170 without issuing an ID card, and they could use other people’s ID card information to help. A person in virtual operator said that some vendors used other people’s ID card information in violation of regulations, taking advantage of the "One Certificate No.5" loophole. Virtual operator needs to strengthen the inspection of channels together, screen through technical means, identify users by telephone call back for verification, and clean up fraudulent numbers in time.

　　Real-name authentication from online sales channels is also difficult. Although some virtual operator online real-name registration systems are enabled, it is required to fill in the user’s real name and ID number, and upload the front, back and half-length photos of my second-generation ID card. However, according to the IT Times, some virtual operator registered with fake real names can still enter the order submission and payment process smoothly. In the whole process of online real-name authentication, we mainly rely on manual audit and express copy of ID card, and there will be more uncontrollable situations. Zou Xueyong, secretary-general of China virtual operator Industry Alliance, thinks that technical means of authentication, such as video face recognition, should be strengthened.

In the post-epidemic era, Meituan (3690.HK) revenue has risen steadily. On March 25, Meituan released the fourth quarter and full year results of 2021. In 2021, the company’s revenue was 179.128 billion yuan (RMB, the same below), an increase of 56% year-on-year; the company lost 23.536 billion yuan during the year and 4.708 billion yuan in profit in the same period last year; the company’s adjusted net loss was 15.572 billion yuan, and the profit in the same period last year was 3.121 billion yuan.

Food and beverage takeaway is an important revenue business of Meituan, and the operating profit of this business in 2021 is 6.175 billion yuan; however, the policy requirements of "reasonable reduction of merchant service fees" and the corporate responsibility to improve the protection of riders’ rights and interests have also increased Meituan’s operating costs. The restaurant and wine travel business is a major source of profit for Meituan. In 2021, the operating profit of this business is 14.20 billion yuan.

However, the operating profits of the above two major businesses cannot offset the losses caused by the expansion of Meituan’s new business. Meituan’s new business, which mainly focuses on community group buying, shared travel, and instant shopping, has an operating loss of 38.40 billion yuan in 2021. At the same time, Meituan also continues to increase the company’s R & D investment, and the R & D expenditure in 2021 will reach 16.70 billion yuan.

2021 was an extraordinary year for Meituan, with the company’s performance turning from profit to loss. At the same time, Meituan’s anti-monopoly penalty was also settled and fined 3.442 billion yuan. Affected by policies and the general environment, Meituan’s share price declined as a whole in 2021, peaking at HK $460/share that year, and then fell below HK $300/share twice in July and November of that year. On December 31, 2021, it closed at HK $225.4/share. As of the close on March 25, Meituan closed at HK $135/share, down 8.16%.

"In 2021, despite the impact of the epidemic, we will still overcome difficulties and strive to provide hundreds of millions of consumers with reliable and convenient life services, help merchants use digital means to expand online operations, and help more entrepreneurs and employees achieve stable income," said Wang Xing, CEO of Meituan. "Meituan will unswervingly fulfill its platform responsibilities, unswervingly increase investment in technology, unswervingly continue to expand its business, and focus on the’retail + technology ‘strategy to deepen the Chinese market and create more value for merchants, users, riders and other ecological partners."

The profit of catering takeaway operation is 6.175 billion yuan, which enhances the protection of riders’ rights and interests

Under the pressure of repeated epidemics, Meituan’s food and beverage takeaway business continued to grow. The number of annual transaction users and the per capita transaction frequency in 2021 reached a record high. The peak of single-day orders broke through 50 million in August 2021 and reached a new high in December of that year. The number of transactions in the whole year reached 14.40 billion, an increase of 41.6% year-on-year.

In 2021, Meituan’s catering takeaway business will see significant growth in categories such as nighttime, milk tea, salad and light food. Supply growth effectively drove an increase in orders from medium and high-frequency users. Therefore, the number of annual transaction users of catering takeaway increased by 13% year-on-year, and the average transaction frequency of annual transaction users increased by 25% year-on-year.

In 2021, Meituan’s catering takeaway business transaction amount was 702.10 billion yuan, an increase of 43.6% year-on-year; revenue was 96.30 billion yuan, an increase of 45.3% year-on-year. Operating profit increased from 2.833 billion yuan in 2020 to 6.175 billion yuan in 2021, while operating profit margin increased from 4.3% to 6.4%.

The topic of takeaway merchant commissions has attracted much attention. In 2021, Meituan takeaway’s commission income (technical service fee) obtained through merchants was 28.547 billion yuan, 18.503 billion yuan in the same period of the previous year, an increase of 54.3% year-on-year; compared with the company’s catering takeaway transaction amount in 2021, the takeaway platform commission rate was about 4.1%.

However, the 2021 government work report proposed to "guide platform enterprises to reasonably reduce merchant service fees." Subsequently, the National Development and Reform Commission and other departments also issued the "Implementation Plan for Accelerating the Cultivation of New Consumption", proposing to guide online platforms such as takeout to rationally optimize the use of small and medium-sized enterprises. Merchants and individuals use the platform to operate commissions, commissions and other expenses, and use technology to empower operators to reduce costs and increase efficiency within the platform.

In 2021, Meituan takeaway and other platforms took the initiative to optimize the platform charging model and implement a pilot "rate transparency". At the same time, the protection of rider rights and interests is also a major responsibility of Meituan. In July of that year, Meituan established a takeaway rider service department. In 2021, Meituan held 136 rider talks.

The financial report shows that the vast majority of Meituan takeaway’s total revenue is rider delivery costs. In 2021, there are about 5.27 million riders who earn income on the Meituan platform. Meituan takeaway rider delivery costs were 68.183 billion, an increase of 38.3% year-on-year, accounting for 71% of Meituan’s total takeaway revenue.

In addition, the breakdown data of the financial report shows that in 2021, Meituan’s food and beverage distribution service revenue collected from merchants and users was 54.204 billion yuan, while the annual rider delivery cost was 68.183 billion yuan. The above data shows that Meituan’s annual direct subsidy for riders cost nearly 14 billion yuan.

The operating profit of the hotel is 14.20 billion yuan, and the operating loss of the new business is 38.40 billion yuan

In the post-epidemic era, Meituan’s store, hotel and tourism business has achieved steady growth. In 2021, Meituan’s store, hotel and tourism business revenue was 32.50 billion yuan, an increase of 53.1% year-on-year; operating profit increased from 8.181 billion yuan in 2020 to 14.193 billion yuan in 2021, while operating profit margin increased from 38.5% to 43.3%.

According to the financial report, Meituan’s 2021 store-to-store business transactions, transaction amounts and annual active merchants all hit record highs. Meituan has strengthened its penetration into lower-tier cities across the country. Categories such as leisure entertainment, fitness, elderly care services, medical care and pet services are growing strongly; while categories such as manual activities, recording studios, light and shadow interactive halls, and stress relief experience halls have become new consumer trends.

In terms of hotels and tourism, the number of hotel room nights in China will increase by 34.5% in 2021. In addition, Meituan has consolidated its competitive advantage in the low-star hotel sector, diverting offline users to online platforms to help more hotel merchants operate digitally. In the high-star hotel sector, high-star hotel room nights will account for more than 16.5% in 2021.

In 2021, Meituan continued to expand its investment in new businesses, especially commodity retail. In 2021, Meituan’s new business and other business revenue was 50.30 billion yuan, an increase of 84.4% year-on-year. The operating loss expanded from 10.90 billion yuan in 2020 to 38.40 billion yuan in 2021, and the operating loss ratio increased by 36.6 percentage points year-on-year.

Community group buying is the exploration direction of Meituan’s new business. In the second half of 2020, community group buying began a new round of industry competition. At that time, Internet companies such as Didi, Meituan, Pinduoduo, JD.com and others invested in the ante one after another. However, with the development of policies and markets, the community group buying industry will experience ups and downs in 2021. Orange Heart is preferred to face business shrinkage, and Jingxi is also reported to reduce staff and withdraw from the city.

At present, Meituan Preferred is relatively stable. According to the financial report, Meituan Preferred has achieved healthy growth thanks to clear policy guidance and a good market competition environment. The "next day pick-up" three-tier warehouse distribution logistics network system has covered most communities and rural areas in 30 provinces across the country. In the future, strict compliance with regulatory regulations will be the top priority, and we will continue to focus on balanced and high-quality growth.

Meituan flash sale exceeded 6.30 million in single-day orders in December 2021. On the supply side, it has expanded its product categories and established cooperation with more high-quality local stores. Flowers, supermarkets and convenience stores continue to maintain a high growth momentum. At the beginning of this year, 24-hour drug delivery service was launched. In 2021, Meituan market users and transaction amounts continue to increase.

High revenue and high investment, R & D expenses of 16.70 billion yuan

High revenue and high expenditure are the characteristics of Meituan’s performance in 2021. The company’s revenue hit a record high, and the operating profit turned from profit to loss, which also laid the foundation for future sustainable development to a certain extent. According to the financial report, Meituan’s R & D expenditure increased from 10.90 billion yuan in 2020 to 16.70 billion yuan in 2021, an increase of 53.1% year-on-year. The increase in employee welfare expenses was mainly due to business expansion.

On the other hand, Meituan has also increased investment in unmanned logistics research and development. Meituan drone has been in normal trial operation in Shenzhen for nearly a year, and has covered more than 8,000 households so far, completing 30,000 orders for real users. Meituan City Low-altitude Logistics Operation Demonstration Center has landed in Shanghai and will gradually cover the "3 km 15 minutes" low-altitude smart logistics network in East China.

In addition, Meituan automatic delivery has launched a low-speed instant delivery solution for outdoor scenes. As of December 2021, Meituan automatic delivery vehicle service has expanded to 20 communities in Shunyi District, Beijing, delivering nearly 190,000 orders, autonomous driving mileage over 700,000 kilometers, and daily delivery of more than 1,000 orders.

At the same time, the company’s overall operating costs also increased significantly. The cost of sales increased by 69.2% from 80.70 billion yuan in 2020 to 136.70 billion yuan in 2021, while the percentage of revenue increased by 6.0 percentage points to 76.3% year-on-year from 70.3%. The main reason is the increase in food delivery related costs, as well as the development and exploration of retail business and other new businesses.

In addition, the company’s sales and marketing expenses increased by 94.8% from $20.90 billion in 2020 to $40.70 billion in 2021, while the percentage of revenue increased by 4.5 percentage points year-on-year from 18.2% to 22.7%. Mainly due to the increase in promotion, advertising and user incentive expenses and employee benefits expenses. In addition, more employees were recruited to support the rapid growth of new businesses.

"Meituan’s development is closely related to the general environment of China’s economy, and it is also inseparable from the joint efforts of small and medium-sized businesses and related workers such as riders. We will continue to take high-quality and sustainable development as the company’s goal, and strive to drive consumption and industry transformation and upgrading, so that all relevant parties can benefit from it." Chen Shaohui, Meituan CFO, said: "Meituan will make long-term investment around the strategy of’retail + technology ‘, and through innovation and technology-driven, help more entrepreneurs and employees share the dividends of the digital economy."
