C-position design: natural aesthetics of science and technology, creating a rich internal car.

C01 takes the natural aesthetics of science and technology as the design concept, and does subtraction in modeling. Cao Li, vice president of Zero Run Technology, shared at the press conference: "The natural aesthetics of science and technology is the design language of zero run cars. We hope that through scientific and rational thinking, innovative technologies will be integrated into a gentle and elegant perceptual appearance to create a rich internal car, so that C01 will bring more temperature touches to users at the perceptual level."

The launch of C01 has further improved the product matrix of zero-run cars, and helped zero-run car brands to move up and enter the fast lane of development!?

Dialogue Jason Wu: What happened to Wandering Earth 2 in four years?

Original fish visual sense

Four years ago, The Wandering Earth became a gift beyond the audience’s expectation, from a "small broken ball" that was not optimistic to a "China science fiction film benchmark".

Four years later, under the expectation of the audience, the China film market finally ushered in Wandering Earth 2.

Four years ago, the earth started a wandering journey to its new home in a crisis. Jason Wu played the match that Liu Pei strengthened his body and lit Jupiter, and used his life to protect the earth and mankind.

Four years later, the story started prequel, and Liu Peiqiang returned to his twenties. In the early days of the solar crisis, he was persistent, confused, powerful and fragile in conflicts and differences.

Four years ago, Jason Wu was a "special actor" in The Wandering Earth, with few scenes, and was finally written as "sacrifice" by the screenwriter.

Four years later, Jason Wu not only played opera, but also had tenderness for tough guys. Family and emotion have become the anchor points that China’s sci-fi movies can’t shake.

Shi Juezhi had an exclusive conversation with Jason Wu, talking about the film and the story behind it.

Jason Wu said that he was very surprised that China’s sci-fi movies had made such great progress in four years.

Friends who have walked into the cinema and watched the film can feel that Wandering Earth 2 is better than the last one:

The upgrade of special effects visible to the naked eye, the large-scale texture that comes from the face, and many grand scenes are shocking.

Speak with a set of data:

When The Wandering Earth had more than 2,000 special effects shots, it was regarded as a great challenge and surprise.

In Wandering Earth 2, there are more than 6,000 visual effects lenses. There are 102 sci-fi main scenes, and 17 studios have a landscape area of 58,000 square meters; 5,310 conceptual designs, 9,989 split-shot drawings, and more than 22,000 group performances at home and abroad …

It goes without saying that the film production cycle is long, the workload is heavy and the difficulty is high.

As a result, the big screen presents a picture of doomsday.

There is an amazing "space elevator", and the towering tower supported by several cables is full of science and technology.

Out-of-control drones flew into the sky and bombed the space elevator. The scene of the ark falling is very enjoyable.

There are also various natural disasters and space crises, and every scene is frightening.

Special effects, pictures and textures are upgraded in all directions, and thousands of special effects shots have completed this visual feast.

But the film can’t just be an empty shell of special effects, and the plot is the core of the film. Fortunately, Wandering Earth 2 is also doing well.

Jason Wu lamented: "Science fiction movies have to be directed by people like Frant Gwo. His macro perspective is so big that I really admire him."

The story of Wandering Earth 2 is set in the near future.

"At first, no one cared about this disaster, a mountain fire, the extinction of a species, until this disaster was closely related to everyone …"

The prologue shows the picture of the future, and mankind is encountering an unprecedented disaster-

The sun continues to expand. After 30 years, the sun will engulf the earth, and after 100 years, the solar system will no longer exist.

In order to save the fate of mankind, different factions have emerged on the earth.

For example, the "Digital Life Plan" allows human beings to achieve "mechanical soaring" through the growing artificial intelligence technology.

China people put forward the "plan to move mountains" (the predecessor of the "Wandering Earth Plan").

Since the earth is in crisis, it is better to "run away with the ball" directly, protect our homeland and leave a decent future for future generations.

The film began slowly in verifying the feasibility of various plans.

Director Frant Gwo’s control of the plot, and the seamless imagination details unconsciously make the audience feel that the future is close at hand.

The excellent performance of the actors is also a plus item.

For Jason Wu, the whole scene is as difficult as several scenes in space:

"How to imitate fighting in space and how to show weightlessness is a conceptual subversion. "

Jason Wu, who had three top martial arts scholars in his ancestors, never played imaginary games, and every scene was real.

In a fight with actor Wang Zhi, Jason Wu told her seriously: "You must really fight." Wang Zhi listened to the advice and filmed it many times. Only after calling it a day did he know that Jason Wu was injured and his thigh was bruised for many days.

The success of Wandering Earth 2 is the result of the joint efforts of all the cast members.

Gained a good score of 8.2 points on Douban, and many film critics also became tap water:

"The breakthrough of China’s film industrialization was unexpectedly realized by director Frant Gwo."

As early as after the The Wandering Earth craze faded, the audience calmed down, and the production team investigated the audience’s expectations for the sequel-

"I hope to see the progress of China science fiction movies. “

Simple words are a great challenge to The Wandering Earth series.

This time, Wandering Earth 2 returned to the big screen with all kinds of pressures and challenges, once again showing the charm and progress of China’s science fiction.

I have to say, the little broken ball did it again.

In the The Wandering Earth, Jason Wu played Liu Peiqiang in few scenes, and the scene of him crashing into Jupiter with the space station became a classic.

As a prequel to The Wandering Earth, Wandering Earth 2 unfolds the character’s experience, and makes Liu Peiqiang become an ordinary man with flesh and blood from a fearless lonely hero.

Talking about the role, Jason Wu told us: "Liu Peiqiang has a growing process in this play."

"He had rebellion, youth, decadence, love, master, family, husband, son-in-law and children of his own."

In the film, the audience follows Liu Peiqiang’s perspective and experiences all the ways of life under the arrival of the doomsday era.

At the beginning of the film, the young version of Liu Peiqiang walked with his master in the near-destroyed urban ruins. He had dark skin and sunglasses, and he had an enviable youthful atmosphere.

Later, I met a female soldier named Han Duoduo (played by Wang Zhi), and Liu Peiqiang was in love. Even though the world was gloomy, he still held red roses to express his romance.

When the villain occupied the space elevator and Liu Peiqiang broke into the secret room alone to outnumber the enemy, he said, "Even if I am alone, I will defend the space elevator to the death." Then began a wonderful fight.

At the end of the film, Liu Peiqiang, who grew a beard and became a lieutenant colonel, stayed in space day and night, touching the photos of his family. When he looked up at the vast universe outside the space capsule, his eyes were full of firmness and sadness.

As Jason Wu said: "Liu Peiqiang may suffer a lot of grievances and even grief in the end, but for the sake of his family, he will continue to work hard."

"Wandering Earth 2" gave Jason Wu plenty of room to play and launched Liu Peiqiang’s wonderful or bumpy first half of his life.

When we asked Jason Wu which of so many wonderful scenes was the most enjoyable, he chose the quietest farewell scene.

Liu Peiqiang participated in the astronaut selection only to give his family a chance to survive.

Liu Peiqiang, who is about to go to space, looked at his terminally ill wife lying in the hospital bed and her 4-year-old son, full of tears.

He held his wife’s hand and said softly, "I miss you", and she tried to answer him, "I have been there".

There is no presupposition and dialogue in this play, and it is entirely up to the free play of the actors. Jason Wu performed a man’s simplest love for his family and relatives.

After filming this scene, Jason Wu couldn’t be calm for a long time. The strongest tough guy at that moment also had a soft spot.

Many viewers were moved to tears by this scene. Jason Wu said: "This is an recognition of my performance, even more fulfilling than any play."

Wandering Earth 2 continues China people’s feelings of home and country.

Jason Wu and Andy Lau had a scene opposite each other. During the filming, they could not hear the sound through a thick glass plate, and Andy Lau could not be seen in Jason Wu’s room. However, only by relying on the details of their expressions, they performed the state of mind of the two people who are equally worried about their families despite their different identities.

The pattern of Wandering Earth 2 is not limited to this.

In the later stage of the film, it is planned to need 300 living people to detonate a nuclear bomb. In this mission with no return, the members of the China Space Team over 50 took the lead to take the initiative to step out and strive to be the fuse of the nuclear bomb, and Russia and other countries followed suit.

This belief and courage of human beings in the face of disasters makes people cry instantly.

The film expands its vision to the destiny of all mankind and becomes a truly globalist film-

This is not an old-fashioned personal heroic adventure story, but a grand epic of all mankind.

Under such a grand narrative, China’s sci-fi movies, with their unique romanticism, make the smallness and flash of human beings deeply hit people’s hearts again and again.

Wandering Earth 2 is not only a continuation of the previous work, but also a pioneering work, and it keeps moving forward on the road of creating hard-core science fiction in China.

This also makes people believe that in the most difficult time, there are always people who keep walking, and China science fiction movies have not been delayed.

With the popularity of the film, more and more details of the film have been "stripped" by netizens.

In such a doomsday sci-fi work, the production team was not delayed at all.

There used to be a famous food "dried aged earthworms" in The Wandering Earth, but now it takes 500,000 mosquitoes to make a "mosquito cake". At first glance, it is grandiose, but it is also reasonable, suggesting a shortage of resources in the future.

There are also patterns worn by little girl characters. In the real world, the rabbit pattern is a smiling face, but in the digital world, the rabbit pattern is a crying face, which makes people feel numb in an instant.

There are also many tributes hidden in the movie.

Some netizens think that the appearance of the original data of the Digital Life Plan pays tribute to the black stone tablet in 2001: A Space Odyssey, both of which have the mysterious meaning of the unknown world.

The film also pays tribute to Ng Man Tat through AI and CG synthesis technology. Times have changed, and people have never forgotten Uncle Da.

From the front to the back, this film has left many surprises for the audience, but Jason Wu said:

In fact, the story on the movie screen is very moving, and the story behind it is even more moving.

Jason Wu told us many behind-the-scenes stories, including the efforts of the cast members that were not noticed by the audience.

The most representative is director Frant Gwo, who strictly implemented the "5+4" life routine during the filming of Wandering Earth 2, that is, 5 cups of coffee and 4 hours of sleep every day, and pursued every detail.

After The Wandering Earth, many viewers were curious about how the earth started. Frant Gwo made a chronicle of nearly 200,000 words, connecting the beginning of the solar crisis, the departure of the earth and the crisis of Jupiter, so that the audience could understand the civilization and conflict in the film.

Until the trailer of Wandering Earth 2 was released, Frant Gwo was still not relieved. Someone on the Internet pointed out the design problem of the aircraft, and Frant Gwo directly replied: "Thank you, thank you, let’s change it quickly."

The same is true of actors.

Teacher Li Xuejian, who plays the representative of China, was ill before. His hearing was not good. Every time the crew worried about his health, Li Xuejian always said, "You don’t have to worry about me."

At the time of the deep winter festival, Li Xuejian filmed a scene of getting caught in the rain, and the water rushed over. Li Xuejian said, "Nothing, come again."

Jason Wu said frankly: "If you don’t visit the scene, you won’t feel the dedication of the older generation of actors."

Andy Lau, who is now 61 years old, not only has an understanding of drama, but also is adept at shooting all kinds of dramas.

Andy Lau’s last scene was filmed in the water almost all the time. He choked on water for real, just to make the details more real.

As Jason Wu said: "I know how hard it is to make a movie. He needs everyone to make their best efforts and have the greatest enthusiasm for movies to fulfill their dreams."

In the Spring Festival of 2023, Wandering Earth 2 only opened for 8 days, and it cracked 2.5 billion box office, which made people see the future and hope of China science fiction movies.

From this film, we can see not only the sincerity of the cast members, but also the ambition of China filmmakers to go global.

Just as Jason Wu and many filmmakers insisted, The Wandering Earth came into being, and The Wandering Earth series universe came into being.

The audience’s feelings are free. Maybe it can’t meet everyone’s expectations, but just like the sentence praised by 30,000 people on Douban:

"There is no need to compare anything. As a milestone, it is invincible."

    [XCAR Centennial Theory of Car Originality]

    In people’s subconscious, the car should turn by the front wheel in the process of moving. However, some friends who like to study automobile technology may know something about automobile rear wheel steering technology, so for most people, automobile rear wheel steering may not sound familiar. This issue of Aika’s "Hundred Years of Cars" column will explain the rear wheel steering technology that was once called "classic", and also briefly introduce the rear wheel steering technology that is currently being applied.

Review in the past

 

     ● Classification and simple memory of rear wheel steering technology

    Simply put, the rear wheel steering technology includes "active rear wheel steering" and "follow-up rear wheel steering". Then when it comes to "active rear wheel steering", friends who are familiar with automobile technology may think of the 2011 BMW 5 Series, that’s right! On the new BMW 5 Series, we can find a new electric power assist system named "Electric Power Steering".

Rear wheel steering

    The rear-wheel steering system applied in the new BMW 5 Series makes it very convenient for drivers to turn and park, and this technology can give them an advantage over their competitors in the same class. Of course, in addition to the current hot model BMW 5 Series with active rear-wheel steering technology, as early as the 1980s and 1990s, many Japanese high-end cars used rear-wheel steering technology, such as Honda Prelude and Mazda 929, which were matched with advanced and safe electronic four-wheel steering systems.

Rear wheel steering

    When it comes to "rear wheel follow-up steering", some friends may think of Citroen Fukang in those days, and perhaps Fukang has faded out of people’s minds now. However, in those days, Fukang led the car world with an original technology called rear wheel follow-up steering. This technology sounds profound from the name. It greatly improves the handling and comfort of Fukang automobile. In fact, it won’t feel as magical as the legend after figuring out its principle. We will recall Fukang’s rear wheel follow-up steering technology with everyone in the following article.

Rear wheel steering

Rear wheel steering

    In fact, almost at the same time as Citroen, Saab Saab developed the ReAxs chassis system. The system ensures accurate steering and can greatly improve the trajectory stability, even when braking violently at high speed. When turning, use the rear wheel to turn slightly to assist the car body to turn smoothly and keep the driving track. The axle heel connecting rod and the ball joint (instead of the inner and outer rubber suspension sleeves) in Saab ReAxs passive rear wheel steering rear suspension can better control the wheel movement. Therefore, when there is a turning load, the elastic motion characteristics of the rear axle will cause the two rear wheels to deflect slightly in the direction opposite to the steering input, that is, the outer wheel leans outward and the inner wheel leans inward. For the driver, this will make the car more balanced, make driving more fun, and help the car turn inward and respond to the steering input more closely.

The side shape of the new car is relatively smooth, and the back-running body design is full of movement. The new car adopts a double waist line design, and the straight waist line looks very tough. In addition, the new car also adopts a hidden door handle with 21-inch low-wind resistance wheels, which has a strong overall sense of style.

In the rear part of the car, the rear part of the new car also continues the family design style. The new car does not use the current popular through-type taillights, but the recognition of the slender taillights on both sides is still very strong, and the blackened rear logo has a strong sense of fashion. In terms of body size, the length, width and height are 4825/1980/1620mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2940mm.

In terms of power, the new car will provide range extension and pure electric power, and provide rear drive and four-wheel drive systems, equipped with a new generation of lithium iron phosphate supercharged batteries provided by Ningde Times. It is worth mentioning that the new car is also equipped with lidar optional.

Li Meijing, the head of CJ Entertainment, won the award for producers who support the world’s cultural arts and contribute to the development of the film.

Exploring Liu Yifei’s first relationship, why the scandal insulator fell in love with Uncle Nuan

    

    1905 movie network feature On August 5, the news of Liu Yifei’s love affair with Korean star Song Chengxian was exposed. They went back to Liu Yifei’s villa in the same car late at night, and the man stayed in the villa all night without leaving. The next day, Liu Yifei’s mother walked out of the villa and sent away the elderly at home, which suspected that Song Chengxian had met the woman’s parents. If the cards were played according to the common sense of the entertainment industry, the relevant male and female protagonists should play Tai Chi or not respond at all, and let the whole incident continue to ferment to capture more curiosity and voyeurism, in order to satisfy the more hyped up and more popular and then drive the movie starring the two to make a good profit. However, on the same afternoon, Song Chengxian generously admitted that the two had just started dating, and the first public love affair of Gao Leng Muse Liu Yifei was finally born!

    In fact, as early as last year, during the filming of the film from July to October, Liu Yifei and Song Chengxian had been in love with the news, but because the intimate photos released showed obvious traces of stills, they were all taken as a means to warm up the movie hype, so many netizens did not take it seriously.

 

    So these intimate photos that were exposed did not stir up much discussion, and it was not over. However, until the end of last year, the two people were frequently photographed in one place. They were photographed for dinner in Beijing, Song Chengxian was photographed for suspected visiting Liu Yifei, and they were photographed for chance encounters in Spain. Throughout Liu Yifei’s debut, there was almost no other hot gossip except for the broken affair with Zeng Yike. Compared with Song Chengxian’s attitude that although each work has a rumored girlfriend but has never been made public, this generous admission has a strong sense of seriousness. However, the movie will be released next month, which will add a layer of veil to the relationship.

 

Playing the piano is like playing cotton, it has been said that Zeng Yi can break his back

 

    In June 2002, "Sister Fairy" became famous for Liu Yifei’s performance in Zhongbai Xiuzhu, and was admitted to the performance department of Beijing Film Academy in July of the same year. Wang Yuyan, Xiaolongnu, Zhao Linger and other roles have made Liu Yifei widely concerned. Since her debut, Liu Yifei has been relatively low-key, but over the years, Liu Yifei’s love path has been very mysterious and elusive.

 

    In 2003, "Dragon Eight" hit the air, Liu Yifei and Lin Zhiying were rumored to have an affair. Lin Zhiying also said in an interview that Liu Yifei was the image of his girlfriend in his heart, which made many people speculate about their relationship. Then the two collaborated on a song’s MV. In 2006, "The Condor Heroes" hit the air, Huang Xiaoming did not shy away from saying that Liu Yifei was her favorite type, but the scandal stopped abruptly before it started, because someone suddenly exposed on the Internet that Liu Yifei really liked Lang Lang.

 

Liu Yifei choked Lang Lang

    At that time, there were media reports that there was a man named Liu Yifei who liked Lang Lang very much and was also a famous actor, but Lang’s father said that Lang Lang was too busy to have time for a relationship. Lang’s mother said that "at least find someone with a graduate degree" implied that Liu Yifei had a low education. However, Liu Yifei actually came out to deny this statement and said that in her opinion, playing the piano is no different from playing cotton. This sentence can be listed as the first in the list of female stars responding to scandals!

 

Liu Yifei and Zeng Yike are rumored to have broken backs

    After 2006, Liu Yifei began to move to the big screen, and almost all her movies were no longer hyped by romance as a gimmick. Compared with the various gossip boyfriends of Huadan flying all over the place, Liu Yifei does seem very low-key. Due to the lack of scandals for too long, many netizens even questioned her sexual orientation. There were rumors of Liu Yifei and Zeng Yike’s broken back, and then it developed to Zeng Yike dumping Liu Yifei and Guo Biting. On these scandals about love, Liu Yifei’s attitude was mostly indifferent and unresponsive.

 

Gossip insulator falls in love with uncle

 

    Why has Liu Yifei been willing to be an insulator of scandals for more than a decade since her debut? We can find one detail, which is Liu Yifei’s mother.

 

    Single parent family

 

    Liu Yifei comes from a wealthy family. Her father used to be a French professor at Wuhan University and later engaged in diplomatic work. Her mother, Liu Xiaoli, is a dancer. However, her parents have long since divorced, and Liu Yifei grew up in a single-parent family. Liu Yifei’s mother once said: When I was divorced and lived alone, my daughter accompanied me for 15 years, which brought me great happiness and comfort, and now I will accompany her for 15 years. "Therefore, the mother’s star mother’s care should be said that Liu Yifei is almost always with her mother wherever she goes. Even on Huang Xiaoming’s birthday, Liu Yifei goes with her mother. So it seems that Liu’s mother’s care for her daughter is a bit too much. A glimpse into the whole leopard, Liu’s mother’s discipline also largely limited Liu Yifei’s love development and germination.

 

    The single-parent family’s growth environment will inevitably lead to a certain degree of lack of fatherly love, and to pass the hurdle of Liu Yifei’s mother, it also increases a lot of pressure. Therefore, there are many male stars who have cooperated with Liu Yifei, but few will continue to communicate in the future. Song Chengxian is 11 years older than Liu Yifei, and this age difference may be filling the emotional needs.

 

The picture shows Liu Yifei and her mother on the left, and Song Chengxian and her father on the right. She is quite beautiful

    Superior conditions + cold personality

 

    In addition, Liu Yifei said that the type of man he likes is: caring, the best face contour is thin, cool, and more masculine. I don’t know if this is the key reason, so Liu Yifei said rudely: "Whether I can play the piano or not is not my criterion for choosing a mate. For me, there is not much difference between those who play the piano and those who play cotton." This tough attitude is actually rare in the entertainment industry. Liu Yifei’s tough character, going her own way, has not taken the down-to-earth route from the beginning.

 

    Although Song Chengxian has been rumored to have affairs with many actresses, his popularity is excellent. He once banned alcohol for more than 3 months because his girlfriend hated his drinking. It can be seen that his love is quite deep. At the wedding of the leading figure of the Korean star Pei Yongjun two days ago, Song Chengxian expressed his intention to get married in an interview. Now they hit it off immediately. The two men and women with similar looks have contributed to a good story, and the picture feels quite beautiful.

 

    Xingtu

 

    In order to get rid of the vase label that was buckled on her head when she made her debut, Liu Yifei signed a contract with an overseas economic company last year to work hard to hone her acting skills, which was well received. On the road to becoming a powerful person, if there is love to accompany her and expand her popularity and fans in other countries, it will naturally be a win-win situation. Coupled with the release of the movie starring the two next month, maybe the next period of time will be a good opportunity for the two to show their sweetness openly, which is really a multi-purpose.

 

    In recent years, the combination of Chinese and Korean stars has become the norm. Cai Lin + Gao Ziqi, Qi Wei + Lee Seung-hyun, and then Tang Wei + Kim Tae-yong have all made headlines in Chinese and Korean media. Although there are certain obstacles in language communication, the cultural foundation that is not obvious between China and South Korea still provides a favorable foundation for the marriage between China and South Korea. For celebrities, love and marriage are accompanied by many factors other than love, but the harvest is mostly the unanimous blessing of fans of the two countries. At the same time, it also provides a strong guarantee for the development of the cause of the two countries.

 

    Due to the drama, love affairs are not uncommon, but very few can really go on. Gossip always disappears after the arrival of new scandals. They are often used to watching the vigorous CP love created by variety shows, and then with the end of the show, the netizens who gradually died down are really tired. Now Liu Tianxian and Song Nianshen are a beautiful misunderstanding or a sincere love. We have to wait patiently for the time to tell us the truth.

Avita: The Thrilling Leap of Changan Automobile

Avita: The Thrilling Leap of Changan Automobile

On January 15, Changan Automobile’s new high-end electric vehicle brand "Avita" was officially released, and the first model of the new brand "Avita 11" was also unveiled simultaneously. Changan Automobile hopes to create "emotional intelligent electric vehicles" through this new brand, occupy a place in the high-end electric vehicle market, and narrow the gap with Tesla, NIO and other new car-making forces.

Before the debut of the Avita brand, Changan Automobile’s new energy vehicle business had significantly lagged behind the market development trend and the pace of progress of competitors, especially in the mid-to-high-end new energy vehicle market. Competitors such as SAIC Group, Dongfeng Group, GAC Group, BAIC Group, and Geely Automobile have all launched mid-to-high-end new energy brands that operate independently. Therefore, the success of the Avita brand is very critical to Changan Automobile.

Chongqing is Avita’s manufacturing base, with an annual production capacity of up to 350,000 units. Brand public relations, marketing and other departments, as well as software research and development are located in Shanghai – on October 21, Avita Technology established a wholly-owned Avita New Energy Vehicle Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., with a global design center in Munich, Germany.

Avita plans to launch four models in the next five years. Among them, the first Avita 11 white body has been trial-produced in the Chongqing factory in October, and will be officially released in the second quarter of next year. The retail network will also be unveiled one after another. The first batch of mass production and user delivery will be achieved in the third quarter of next year, and its sales network will cover about 100 cities across the country.

Compared with the new energy models launched by Changan Automobile before, Avita 11 can be said to be a stunning work. For Changan Automobile, it can be regarded as an epoch-making product in terms of design concept, design language, vehicle shape, driving control performance and intelligence level. Avita also used this to create a new term "emotional intelligent electric vehicle", hoping to add emotional attributes to intelligent electric vehicles and differentiate them from other competitors.

Avita 11 is also the result of a strong collaboration between Changan Automobile, Huawei and CATL. The car was born from the CHN platform jointly built by the three parties, and the three letters of CHN represent each of the three companies. Yu Chengdong, executive director of Huawei, CEO of Consumer BG and CEO of Smart Car Solutions BU, said "Relying on 30 years of technology accumulation in the ICT field, we provide Avita with a comprehensive solution for smart cars through Huawei Inside."

Zeng Yuqun, chairperson of CATL, said: "The cooperation between CATL and Avita Technology began with the joint research and development of the CHN platform, but it goes far beyond technical investment. CATL will provide a steady stream of driving power for the new generation of smart electric vehicles owned by Avita Technology."

The core design concept of Avita 11 is "futuristic", and the overall design follows the design principles of bold confidence, emotional intelligence, and dynamic personality. Its agile and powerful exterior design shows a unique aesthetic charm.

Avita: The Thrilling Leap of Changan Automobile

The Avita 11 features a closed front design, with a slender and angular F-shaped headlight combination that converges the visual center to the logo in the center of the front of the car, condensing it without losing its edge. The aerodynamic package on both sides of the front bumper echoes the F-shaped headlights, with a lidar in the middle of the bumper.

Avita: The Thrilling Leap of Changan Automobile

From the side, the Avita 11 has a slender body with short front and rear overhangs, starting from the C-pillar, and the roof is pressed down to create the posture of a coupe SUV. The side lines of the body are simple and elegant, and the profile is full. The two window lines merge into a sharp V-shaped sharp angle at the rear of the car, and point forcefully to the edge of the C-pillar end, which is very dynamic and dynamic, and echoes the rounded rear wheel arches. The door handles have a hidden design.

Avita: The Thrilling Leap of Changan Automobile

The rear shape of the car is relatively round and looks very stable. Slender through taillights extend to both sides of the tail. The rear window design of the Avita is very characteristic. The shape is inverted trapezoid, and the area is very small, which makes the design of the tailgate feel a bit hatchback.

Avita: The Thrilling Leap of Changan Automobile

From the photos of the actual car, the area of the rear window is indeed very small, and it is unknown whether it will affect the driver’s observation of the rear environment during actual driving.

Avita: The Thrilling Leap of Changan Automobile

Other details of the Avita 11 are not much, and the interior is not open. Currently known information includes a cruising range of at least 700 kilometers, a 0-100km/h acceleration time of less than 4 seconds, a 200kW high-pressure super fast charging and 400Tops of top computing power, making it easy to achieve safe and convenient intelligent driving.

The emotional intelligent electric vehicle proposed by Avita will become a new category, or is it just a concept? The author believes that as the human-machine interaction functions of intelligent electric vehicles become richer and richer, and the interaction patterns become more and more diverse, it is indeed a possibility to give them more emotional attributes. But the premise is that the intelligent level of Avita 11 should reach a high degree, especially the experience of the intelligent cockpit should be completely based on the actual emotional needs of customers.

In fact, some current smart electric vehicles already have certain emotional attributes in terms of product design and function, such as the very unique anthropomorphic image of NOMI on NIO electric vehicles, which has been deeply exploring the emotional needs of human-vehicle interaction. Therefore, if the emotional intelligent electric vehicle proposed by Avita wants to become a new species and new category, it must have a more subversive innovation on the basis of the existing intelligent electric vehicles, otherwise it will not be attractive enough.

Not only Changan Automobile, but also large state-owned automakers such as SAIC, GAC, Dongfeng, and BAIC have established independent subsidiaries to develop new energy vehicle businesses, but they have maintained absolute control of the new energy vehicle subsidiaries. Even Baidu, a joint venture between Baidu and Geely, holds a 55% stake as the leading Baidu. But Avita Technology is an exception.

The predecessor of Avita Technology (Chongqing) Co., Ltd., the operating body of the Avita brand, was "Changan NIO New Energy Vehicle Technology Co., Ltd." (Changan NIO), which was jointly established by Changan Automobile and NIO in July 2018. The two parties held 50% of the shares respectively. Since then, due to NIO’s difficulties and no time to take care of it, Changan NIO has not made progress. In June 2020, Changan Automobile increased its capital to Changan NIO. The shareholding ratio reached 95.38%, and NIO’s share ratio fell to 4.62%. On May 20, 2021, Changan NIO was renamed Avita Technology.

On November 5, 2021, Avita Technology announced the completion of a round of financing, and the registered capital increased from the previous 288 million yuan to about 1.172 billion yuan.

Among them, Changan Automobile increased its capital by 500 million yuan, and Ningde Times increased its capital by 770 million yuan. After this financing, Changan Automobile’s shareholding ratio was diluted from 95.38% to 39.02%; Ningde Times held 23.99%, becoming the second largest shareholder of Avita Technology; Fujian Mindong Times Rural Investment Development Partnership held 5.00%, Chongqing Chengan Private Equity Fund Partnership held 19.01%, Chongqing Liangjiang West Securities Equity Investment Fund Partnership held 1.87%, Southern Industrial Asset Management Co., Ltd. held 8.73%, and Chongqing Southern Industrial Equity Investment Fund Partnership held 1.25%. NIO did not participate in the capital increase, and the shareholding ratio was diluted from 4.62% to 1.13%.

Among the investors mentioned above, Southern Asset is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the parent company of Changan Automobile and one of the top 10 shareholders of Changan Automobile, holding 6.12%. Therefore, it has a relationship with Changan Automobile. Southern Industrial Fund has no relationship with Changan Automobile, but has an equity relationship with Southern Asset.

For the purpose of this financing, Changan Automobile said that the introduction of external resources for equity diversification reform can enhance development vitality, improve operational efficiency, accelerate the integration of new energy vehicle industry chain resources, and continuously expand the development space of the industry chain, ultimately realizing the smooth transformation of Avita Technology Company.

Avita: The Thrilling Leap of Changan Automobile

Why should Changan Automobile give up its absolute controlling stake in Avita? Some people think that Changan Automobile is intentional, which can maximize the vitality of Avita Technology, get rid of the shackles of the state-owned enterprise system, and share risks.

There are also opinions that Changan Automobile is forced to do so. If it does not sell a larger proportion of its equity, it will not be able to attract truly powerful partners, such as Ningde Times. Tan Benhong, CEO of Avita Technology, also said in an interview that smart electric vehicles are a new field, and if you choose a partner with less ability, the hope of success is even more slim.

For the purpose of CATL’s investment in Avita Technology, there is a view that it is to make its highly integrated CTC (Cell to Chassis) technology come to fruition. This technology of integrating battery cells with vehicle chassis will help to significantly reduce the cost of electric vehicles, but it will weaken the dominance of OEMs in the development of electric vehicles and strengthen the voice over battery companies. Therefore, many OEMs are more cautious. CATL’s investment in Avita Technology and becoming its second largest shareholder will help CTC technology land on Avita models.

However, Tan Benhong said in an interview that Avita 11 will use the latest electrification technology of Ningde Times, but it is not clear whether CTC technology will be used. He said "C2C needs to be done when other conditions are ripe."

It is worth noting that Changan Automobile also gave up its controlling stake in financing Changan New Energy. In October 2018, Changan New Energy was publicly listed on the Shanghai United Equity Exchange to increase capital. In December 2019, Nanjing Runke, Changxin Fund, Liangjiang Fund, Southern Industrial Fund and other four parties invested a total of 2.84 billion yuan. Changan Automobile’s shareholding in Changan New Energy was reduced from 100% to 48.95%.

On October 30, Changan Automobile announced that Changan New Energy will introduce a number of strategic investors in the form of public listing on the Shanghai United Equity Exchange, and the planned proceeds raised will not exceed 5 billion yuan. This is the second round of financing since the establishment of Changan New Energy. If the fundraising increases Changan Automobile’s capital by different proportions, then its share ratio in Changan New Energy may be further diluted.

The Avita brand and the Avita 11 have just been unveiled, and from the few details and designs revealed, it has the potential to become a high-end pure electric vehicle, but it has only just begun. The future is still full of unknowns.

On the one hand, the competition in the smart electric vehicle market is becoming increasingly fierce. Some first movers have already established a firm foothold in the market, and the latecomers have to provide more forward-looking and revolutionary products to have the opportunity. It remains to be seen whether Avita’s emotional intelligent electric vehicle can live up to its name. On the other hand, it is also unknown what impact Changan Automobile will bring to this new brand if it gives up its absolute controlling stake in Avita. Based on this, the appearance of Avita 11 is not only an amazing leap for Changan Automobile, but also a thrilling leap.

Avita: The Thrilling Leap of Changan Automobile

Volvo is really a luxury brand for its quality and safety.

First of all, the quality of Volvo is good. I think the real owner has the most say. After a cursory look at the real owner’s answer below this question, I think I don’t need to repeat the answer. In short, I want to buy a car and go for a test drive first.

Let me briefly talk about some opinions about the rumors of poor quality.

First of all, it was mentioned that various votators on social media touted Volvo’s high safety, thus questioning exaggeration. There is no denying that Volvo can’t get away with it every time, but the root cause of many cases is that under a certain accident base, the number of times Volvo didn’t suffer too much damage in actual collisions must be better than other brands, so there will be so many cases. If it is said that touting one’s own advantages will also attract criticism, then I think the problem may not lie in Volvo products, but in people’s hearts.

Secondly, Volvo was under Ford in the past few years, and the problem of gearbox tuning has been criticized, which persuaded a group of car buyers. However, this problem has been well solved since Volvo changed the Aisin gearbox, and now Volvo’s power system is still very reliable.

Let’s take a look at Volvo’s new car quality ranking in recent years. Let’s first take a look at what this J.D.Power is. J.D. Power’s research is famous for its independence and objectivity, and it is one of the most professional and authoritative market research companies in the world. At the same time, J.D. Power has gained high recognition in the global industrial and commercial circles in terms of automobile customer satisfaction index, and its investigation and research strength in the global and China domestic industries is second to none.

In 2010, the first year that Volvo was bought by Geely, Volvo’s C70 was rated as the best compact luxury sports car by J.D.Power. Then in 2014,
(
get away
) also ranked first in the segment list of medium-sized luxury SUVs announced by J.D.Power. In the same year, Volvo pressed BBA to rank second in the quality list of J.D.Power luxury brands with the score of "45 cars per 100 cars", second only to Porsche.

Looking at the China Quality Research Report published by J.D.Power in 2021, Volvo ranks in the top three, second only to Hehe, which shows that Volvo has been doing this piece of quality with heart.

Finally, we talked recently about the XC40 pure electric ice-breaking experiment conducted by Volvo a few days ago. Although there may be moisture, we have to say that if you pull some new electric assembly cars to freeze at MINUS 20 or 30 degrees, can you drive them out or not? The XC40 pure electric energy frozen for 48 hours can show that Volvo not only passed the quality of oil cars, but also grasped the quality of trams in the process of electrification development.

In the final analysis, it is impossible for Volvo to have no quality problems at all, but most of them are harmless minor problems, which is one of the reasons why Volvo’s repurchase rate has been relatively high. Finally, I think non-car owners don’t have to worry about the quality of Volvo, but prospective car owners can buy it with confidence.

From the government-led to the main scientific and technological investment of enterprises, the innovation power is surging.

  Investment of R&D funds from 1953 to 2017

  Sharp tools make good work. Investment in science and technology is the necessary condition and basic guarantee for scientific and technological progress. Since the founding of New China 70 years ago, China has gradually established a national science and technology investment system that adapts to the characteristics of the socialist market economy system.

  "The continuous improvement of the national science and technology investment system and the sustained and rapid growth of research and development (R&D) funds have stimulated the vitality of scientific and technological innovation in the whole society and strongly supported the country’s scientific and technological progress and rapid and stable economic and social development." Zhu Yingchun, deputy director of the Institute of Science and Technology Statistics and Analysis of the China Academy of Science and Technology Development Strategy, said in an interview with the Science and Technology Daily reporter.

  A historic breakthrough was achieved in the scale and intensity of R&D funds.

  The R&D expenditure of the whole society is an important component of the national (regional) investment in science and technology, an important indicator to measure the national (regional) investment in science and technology, and an important indicator to observe and analyze the national (regional) scientific and technological development strength and competitiveness.

  Since the founding of New China, especially since the reform and opening up, with the promulgation and implementation of various national economic policies and science and technology policies and the enhancement of the country’s comprehensive national strength, the investment in science and technology in the whole society has increased rapidly, and the scale and intensity of R&D funds have achieved a historic breakthrough.

  Data from the National Bureau of Statistics show that in 2018, China’s R&D expenditure reached 1,967.79 billion yuan, 123 times that of 1991, from 1991— In 2018, the average annual growth rate was 19.5%, far exceeding the average annual growth rate of GDP at current prices in the same period.

  At the same time, the investment intensity of R&D funds has hit record highs, reaching 2% for the first time in 2013 and 2.19% in 2018, exceeding the average level of the 15 EU countries. According to the exchange rate, China has become the second largest R&D investment country in the world after the United States, providing a strong financial guarantee for the development of science and technology.

  China’s national financial expenditure on science and technology increased from 60 million yuan in 1953 to 951.82 billion yuan in 2018. 2005— In 2010, the national fiscal expenditure on science and technology grew fastest, with an average annual growth rate of more than 20%. In 2011, the growth rate began to decline, and in 2018, it increased by 13.5% over the previous year, setting a record high since 2013.

  "The national financial expenditure on science and technology has played a key role in driving the whole society’s R&D investment and leading the national strategic orientation, providing a strong guarantee for scientific and technological innovation." Zhu Yingchun pointed out.

  In Zhu Yingchun’s view, the investment in science and technology has increased rapidly, and the scale and intensity of R&D funds have achieved a historic breakthrough, which is in line with the Outline of the National Medium-and Long-term Science and Technology Development Plan (2006— The promulgation and implementation of "2020)", especially since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, various departments and localities have taken active measures, and the whole society has formed a consensus on attaching importance to and supporting innovation.

  From different regions, the performance of scientific and technological investment in some places is eye-catching. In 2017, the fiscal expenditure on science and technology in seven regions including Guangdong, Jiangsu and Shanghai exceeded 20 billion yuan. The local fiscal expenditure on science and technology in 11 provinces (cities) accounted for more than 2% of the local fiscal expenditure, and Guangdong, Shanghai and Beijing all exceeded 5%.

  It is worth mentioning that in 2018, the number of regions with R&D investment intensity greater than 2% increased to 11, among which the R&D investment intensity in Beijing reached a record high of 6.17%.

  Enterprises become the main force supporting the growth of R&D investment.

  Since the reform and opening up, China has actively guided other social capitals to increase their support for innovation through direct and indirect financial investment. Enterprise funds have gradually become an important source of funds for the whole society to invest in R&D funds.

  "In recent years, the source structure of R&D funds has been further optimized, and the dominant position of enterprise innovation has been further highlighted. The proportion of corporate funds in R&D funds increased from 60.1% in 2003 to 76.5% in 2017. " Zhu Yingchun believes that this is mainly due to the improvement and implementation of the R&D expenses plus deduction policy, the tax relief policy for high-tech enterprises and the accelerated depreciation policy for fixed assets, which greatly mobilized the enthusiasm of enterprises for R&D activities. As the main body of technological innovation, enterprises have become the main force supporting the growth of R&D investment in China in recent years.

  Enterprises are not only the main body of investment in R&D funds, but also the main body of implementation. From the perspective of expenditure structure, the proportion of R&D expenditure of Chinese enterprises in the total social R&D expenditure has increased from about 60.0% in 2000 to 77.4% in 2018.

  According to statistics, in 2017, the number of enterprises enjoying R&D expenses plus tax reduction and exemption for industries above designated size and tax reduction and exemption for high-tech enterprises reached 24,400 and 24,200 respectively, 3.3 times and 3.5 times that of 2009 respectively, and the amount of tax reduction and exemption reached 57 billion yuan and 106.2 billion yuan respectively, which played a positive role in encouraging and guiding enterprises to carry out R&D activities.

  In 2018, the basic research funds broke through the 100 billion yuan mark for the first time.

  Data from the Statistical Bulletin of National Science and Technology Investment in 2018 (hereinafter referred to as the Bulletin) show that in 2018, China invested a total of 1,967.79 billion yuan in R&D, an increase of 207.18 billion yuan or 11.8% over the previous year. Among them, the basic research funds exceeded 100 billion yuan for the first time, reaching 109.04 billion yuan, keeping pace with the investment in research and development.

  Li Yin, a statistician of the Department of Social Sciences and Literature of the National Bureau of Statistics, explained that the funds for basic research exceeded 100 billion yuan, and all three subjects achieved rapid growth. The funds for basic research in institutions of higher learning, government-owned research institutions and enterprises were 58.99 billion yuan, 42.31 billion yuan and 3.35 billion yuan respectively, up by 11.1%, 10.1% and 15.7% respectively over the previous year. Among them, colleges and universities contribute 51.1% to the growth of basic research funds in the whole society, and they are the main bodies to carry out basic research.

  According to Lv Wei, a researcher in the Innovation and Development Research Department of the State Council Development Research Center, the investment in basic research in China has been increasing continuously in recent years, which is not only related to the state’s attention, but also an inevitable requirement for the development of technological innovation capability to the stage of "three runs coexist". The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed that we should aim at the forefront of world science and technology, strengthen basic research, and achieve a major breakthrough in forward-looking basic research and leading original achievements.

  Over the past 70 years, China has made remarkable progress in science and technology investment. "However, it should still be noted that compared with the goal of deepening the supply-side structural reform and building a world science and technology power, the investment intensity of R&D funds in China needs to be rapidly improved." Zhu Yingchun pointed out.

  Judging from the cumulative investment, there is still a big gap between the total investment of R&D funds in China and the United States and Japan since 1991. Science and technology investment has a strong cyclical accumulation effect, and the appearance of scientific and technological innovation effect depends on long-term investment and continuous accumulation. When the innovation ability changes from "tracking, paralleling and leading" to "paralleling" and "leading", it still needs the support of a lot of scientific and technological investment to achieve key core technological breakthroughs.

  At the same time, problems such as unbalanced investment structure of R&D funds have yet to be solved. For example, the single source of funds for basic research. The proportion of basic research funds in China has been around 5% for a long time, which is lower than 15% in developed countries & mdash; The general level of 20%; Basic research is highly dependent on the central financial input, and local and enterprises have insufficient investment in basic research.

  In this regard, Zhu Yingchun suggested that in the future, we should speed up the construction of a diversified investment system, strengthen the comprehensive design of fiscal, taxation, financial and other policies, form an organic policy system, and further guide venture capital, charitable donations, and universities’ own funds to invest in R&D activities.
