Analysis on the types of automobile automatic gearbox: Who is better, AT, DCT or CVT?

First of all, it should be emphasized that the dual-clutch gearbox is divided into wet dual-clutch and dry dual-clutch. Volkswagen’s low-end models use 7-speed dry dual clutch, while the high-end models use wet dual clutch. Therefore, under certain circumstances, Volkswagen’s 7-speed dry dual clutch is still prone to problems, which also makes the dry dual clutch worse than CVT continuously variable gearbox in some cases.

1. Volkswagen’s 7-speed wet dual clutch shift is fast and stable.

Volkswagen models with 2.0T are mainly equipped with 7-speed wet dual-clutch gearboxes. This gearbox is obviously faster than the gearbox in shifting speed, and can accelerate faster under the same power, and it is also quite stable. There are no other disadvantages except a strong sense of low-speed shifting. Volkswagen’s 7-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox is also mounted on some models, so its performance can still be fully recognized.

2. The performance of Volkswagen 7-speed wet dual clutch gearbox is higher than that of CVT continuously variable gearbox.

As mentioned earlier, the stability order of automatic gearbox is AT>DCT>CVT, so we know that DCT dual clutch gearbox is better than CVT continuously variable gearbox. However, the dual clutch gearbox here refers to the wet dual clutch gearbox, not the dry dual clutch gearbox. Volkswagen’s 7-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox has good heat dissipation, faster shifting speed and greater endurance, which has obvious advantages over CVT continuously variable gearbox. However, CVT continuously variable gearbox can’t bear large torque, and it is easy to slip at high speed, so its performance can’t compete with wet dual clutch gearbox.

3. Volkswagen 7-speed dry dual clutch system is widely used in vehicles and has good feedback performance.

Whether Volkswagen’s 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox can be bought is mainly due to concerns about dry dual-clutch gearbox. Volkswagen mainly uses 7-speed dry dual-clutch gearbox on low-end models, such as,, and so on, which are popular models of Volkswagen. The 7-speed dry dual-clutch gearbox is used on these models, and the overall feedback performance is also good. Of course, Volkswagen’s 7-speed dry dual-clutch gearbox, its frequent shifting causes the gearbox temperature to rise, and occasionally the gearbox will stop shifting, which is also the reason why people are worried about whether the Volkswagen dual-clutch gearbox can be bought, but in reality this situation is still relatively rare.

Summary: Volkswagen’s 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox is well worth buying, especially Volkswagen’s wet dual-clutch gearbox, because it is used in Volkswagen’s mid-to high-end models. Volkswagen’s dry dual-clutch gearbox also performed well. There are still many models on the market that use Volkswagen’s 7-speed dry dual-clutch gearbox, and no major problems have been found yet.

Luxin Venture Capital: Dig deep into "Moments" and introduce "hard technology"

  The ecosystem built by technology and products of technology enterprises is profoundly changing life scenes and industrial patterns. In the current era of accelerating towards intelligence, innovative technology ecology has increasingly become a key element for the transformation of old and new kinetic energy and the high-quality development of industries.

  Technology ecosystem refreshes smart experience

  What kind of intelligent experience can a technology ecosystem bring?

  Driving a smart car, encountering complex traffic scenarios such as road construction obstacles, pedestrians crossing the road, and suddenly appearing electric vehicles, can identify dangers earlier and faster, easily change lanes to avoid obstacles, actively avoid risks, and actively stop.

  Using a smart PC, you can quickly and accurately extract key information from text, audio, and video content without time and effort;

  Open the smart screen and point to the remote control to make the control as convenient as playing with a mobile phone;

  Wearing smart earphones, you can automatically switch the noise reduction mode according to the environment without hands, and smart watches and smart bracelets can detect health indicators and generate micro-physical examination reports;

  Install the smart door lock, no matter the light is bright or dark, the angle and distance change can be accurately and securely unlocked by facial recognition…

  The most important thing is that all these products can achieve synergy, such as mobile phones can be remotely parked, watches can be used as car keys, mobile phone applications can be "touched" to the car screen, smart screen, and even smart door locks can be linked with mobile phones, smart screens, and other multi-screens.

  This is the full scenario of the Internet of Everything showcased at Huawei Hongmeng Ecological Spring Communication Conference on April 11. The underlying distributed capabilities of Hongmeng Ecological can achieve full-scene device collaboration, allowing smart experiences to pervade all aspects of people’s lives.

  "Since January 18 this year, Huawei announced that the first batch of more than 200 application manufacturers are accelerating the development of Hongmeng native applications. By the end of March, there will be more than 4,000 applications, and the growth rate will be as high as 20 times in just two months, covering more vertical applications." Yu Chengdong, executive director of Huawei, CEO of end point BG, and chairperson of smart car solutions BU, revealed at the communication meeting that Hongmeng ecology has achieved a complete vertical industry coverage, including convenient life, travel and tourism, financial management, social information, productivity tools, corporate office, audio and video entertainment. Applications in various fields are competing to start Hongmeng native application development, constantly injecting new vitality into Hongmeng ecology.

  Among them, it is particularly worthy of attention that Huawei, which "does not build cars", is helping more car companies to "build good cars": with more than 30 years of technical accumulation in the ICT field, it has shown obvious advantages through Hongmeng Zhixing ecology to help the commercial success of automotive industry partners. Taking the Q Jie jointly built by Huawei and Sailis as an example, the number of phenomenon-level explosive models Q Jie’s new M7 is set to reach 174,000 in 7 months; the full-scene smart flagship SUV Q Jie M9 has been listed in just three months. A total of 70,000 vehicles have been set to break through, breaking the domestic 500,000 yuan level luxury car sales speed record. In the first quarter of this year, the cumulative sales of the new M7 reached 74,400 units, winning the first place in the sales of single models of new forces in China.

  "If China wants to build a good car, it cannot do without Huawei. If China wants to go from an automobile power to an automobile power, it needs the empowerment of Huawei Hongmeng System." Yin Tongyue, secretary of the party committee and chairperson of Chery Holding Group Co., Ltd., said at the communication meeting. When talking about the S7 smart car of Hongmeng Zhixing, which Chery has cooperated with Huawei, Yin Tongyue said that the smart world is Chery’s most important project. Chery has become an independent business unit of the Lizhijie brand, led by the R & D leader and the manufacturing leader, and the exclusive manufacturing industrial production line and special project resources are guaranteed.

  Full scene artificial intelligence deeply empowered

  From smart travel to smart home, from smart office to smart wear, Hongmeng’s new products are packed with various innovative technologies, among which AI (artificial intelligence) is undoubtedly a high-frequency word.

  One of the biggest highlights of the new Huawei MateBook X Pro laptop released at the Hongmeng Ecological Spring Communication Conference is its thinness, with a thickness of only 13.5 mm and a weight of only 980 grams. According to Yu Chengdong, the MateBook X Pro is the only notebook equipped with Intel Core Ultra 9 high-performance processor within 1kg, and it is also the world’s first 14.2-inch flexible OLED notebook. More notably, this is the first time that Huawei PC has applied Huawei Pangu model. Its AI summary function can quickly and accurately extract key information from text, audio and video content. In addition, the MateBook X Pro is also equipped with Huawei AI space function for the first time. Through this one-stop AI ability aggregation entrance, it can make code programming, PPT production, paper reading and typesetting, collection of learning materials, video picture creation, travel planning and other scenes more efficient and convenient. On this heavyweight AI PC, Huawei also jointly tuned with Wanxing Meow Shadow to call NPU for AI special effects creation, bringing users a smarter and more efficient experience; in cooperation with WPS, it brings a series of AI functions including text intelligent typesetting, dialogue operation tables, and brain map-to-PPT.

  It is understood that the AI capabilities of the Pangu model have been mainly used in the industry before. This move on the PC track will be an important step in the exploration of the Pangu model on the consumer side, and the on-board smart assistant Xiaoyi will also be connected to the Huawei Pangu model in May.

  In fact, not only is there a big model blessing, but the new products of Hongmeng Ecological all scenes are deeply empowered by AI technology. For example, behind the staggering smart driving capabilities of the Smart World S7 is Huawei’s rich scene library built on the AI training cluster, in which more than 12 million kilometers of simulation tests are carried out every day, and the learning and training computing power reaches 3.3E FLOPS (tens of billions of floating-point operations per second). The model update speed is iterated every 5 days, and the intelligent driving ability is continuously iterated and upgraded with massive data; the AI camera equipped with Huawei’s smart screen has powerful intelligent perception capabilities, which can realize 3D bone recognition, sitting posture or distance reminders, portrait tracking, etc.; Huawei Smart Door Lock Plus applies self-developed AI technology to 3D facial recognition, which not only independently learns subtle changes in the face and environment, but also has powerful AI 3D anti-counterfeiting detection, and can resist photos, videos, masks Five attack methods, such as headgear and 3D headmold, ensure that facial recognition is more convenient, safer and smarter from the bottom of the technology.

  Accumulate new potential energy to open up more space

  With this year’s "artificial intelligence +" being written into the government work report for the first time, artificial intelligence is expected to deeply empower the development of the real economy and become an important engine for the development of new quality productivity. At the application level, artificial intelligence is deeply integrated with all walks of life, and is expected to build a data-driven, man-machine collaboration, cross-border integration, and co-creation and sharing of intelligent economic forms, giving birth to new economic growth points.

  Take the PC industry as an example. The industry generally believes that AI PCs will reshape users’ PC experience, profoundly change people’s work patterns and lifestyles, improve the efficiency of the whole scene, and set off a new round of PC replacement.

  IDC, a market research firm, reports that the proportion of AI PCs installed in China’s PC market will only be 8.1% in 2023, and the proportion will increase significantly to 54.7% in 2024. It is expected to rise rapidly in the next few years, reaching 85% in 2027 and becoming the mainstream of the PC market.

  Huaxin Securities Research Report said that the AI PC usage scenarios are highly overlapping with the application scenarios currently covered by the AI big model, and are called "the best carrier of the big model." Chip processor manufacturers such as Qualcomm, AMD, and Intel have launched processors for AI PCs.

  Industry insiders believe that the launch of AI PC products by the top end point brand marks the arrival of the AI PC era. At present, Apple, Microsoft and other tech giants have released AI PCs. As the top three manufacturers in the domestic PC market and the only one growing against the trend, Huawei’s entry into the new AI PC track will help the recovery of the PC industry chain and is expected to add new vitality to the PC industry.

  At the press conference, Zhang Guofei, director of the comprehensive channel of the Central Radio and Television General Station, concluded that the research results of artificial intelligence in China have reached the national leading level in some aspects, and artificial intelligence covers all aspects of our lives, covering every corner of society and economy.

  Deep integration of artificial intelligence charm out of the circle

  "In terms of program content, the third season of" Wit "pursues the upgrading of texture and quality; In terms of communication, we are constantly exploring new possibilities of radio and television. How to maximize the dissemination of high-quality program content has always been a problem we are thinking about. " At the press conference site, Zhang Yue said that in the macro-ecology of media integration, linking various platforms, giving full play to the strengths of each family and realizing "one fish to eat more" of high-quality content has become an important strategy for the third season of "Wit". In the new media era, traditional TV media still has great potential.

  Every Saturday, CCTV 1 will focus on the cutting-edge technology of artificial intelligence in 93 minutes of prime time, and show the intelligent achievements of artificial intelligence to empower the industry and benefit the people’s livelihood.  

  Under the background of media integration, this "hardcore" variety show adopts the form of all-media linkage, creating a media integration matrix, which fully embodies integration and innovation in both creation and promotion. In the third season of Wit, the theme activity of "Wisdom and Respect for China" was launched, which linked all walks of life to pay tribute to the 70th anniversary of the founding of New China, and relying on the media matrix, various media and platforms were allowed to produce distinctive new media products according to their own advantages and attributes.

  The series of activities of "Zhijing China" have been launched in full swing: during the filming of the project, the program group launched a series of live broadcasts of "Zhijing China" in conjunction with many new media platforms such as CCTV News, CCTV, and Vibrato Short Video.

September 7-8 Theme: Vehicle Observation

      A white line on the crosswalk of a city street, also called zebra crossing. Zebra crossing originated from jumping stones in ancient Rome. As early as in ancient Rome, on some streets of Pompeii, chariots and horses crossed with pedestrians, which often caused traffic jams and accidents in the city. To this end, people separated the sidewalk from the carriage road, raised the sidewalk, and built blocks of stones protruding from the road near Ma Lukou as signs to instruct pedestrians to cross the street. Pedestrians can step on these jumping stones and slowly cross the road. When the carriage is running, the jumper is just between the two wheels of the carriage. Later, many cities used this method. At the end of the 19th century, with the invention of automobiles, the traffic in the city was rolling, and people were crossing the street at will, which hindered the traffic. The previous kind of stone jumping could not avoid the frequent occurrence of traffic accidents.

      In the early 1950s, the British designed a kind of crosswalk on the street, which stipulated that pedestrians should only take crosswalks when crossing the street, so a series of striking crosswalks appeared on the streets of London, which looked like white stripes on zebras, so people called it zebra crossing. When the driver sees this white line, he will automatically slow down or stop to let pedestrians pass safely. Zebra crossings are still everywhere in the streets.

Accelerated reshuffle of entertainment industry in winter: the rise of video websites and the reconstruction of industrial value chain

  In the past, the entertainment industry has not had a good time. Whether it is film and television dramas, movies, games or even artists, the upstream and downstream of the industry have been more or less affected. Under the cold winter, the prospects of the entertainment industry are also confused. How to get out of the cold winter?

  Recently, at the Iqiyi World Conference, Iqiyi released a number of entertainment industry support plans, involving movies, film and television dramas, games, animation, online texts, artists’ brokers, etc., which seemed to set a fire in the cold winter of the entertainment industry. Even Hou Hongliang, president of Noon Sunshine Film, lamented: "Winter has passed and summer has arrived." If, as Hou Hongliang said, winter has passed and summer is ushered in with the help of video websites, then, under the cold winter of this round of entertainment industry, the video websites under the control of the BAT Big Three have undoubtedly become the biggest winners, and their dominance in the entertainment industry has further expanded. Many years ago, Bona Film President Yu Dong’s statement that "all film and television companies will work for BAT" is also becoming a reality.

  Entertainment industry accelerates reshuffle in winter.

  Wind data shows that during the four years from May 2015 to May 2019, the investment in the film and entertainment industry showed an obvious cliff-like downward trend, with two obvious lows in 2016 and this year. In 2015, the investment amount of the industry was 13.091 billion yuan, which was reduced to 6.452 billion yuan in the following year, which was more than half. Then it entered the fast lane of rising. In 2018, the investment amount reached 53.777 billion yuan, which will be more than half this year, and the investment amount is only 262 million yuan.

  Affected by the cold winter, in 2018, the number of repertoires publicized by filing in China continued to decline, with a total of 1,061 and 41,887 episodes, down by 9.7% and 10.3% respectively compared with 2017. And short videos began to flood people’s lives, and the fragmentation time was gradually filled, and the market space was further narrowed.

  The performance of film and television listed companies is also not optimistic. Even Huace Film and Television (300133.SZ), the leading film and television drama, earned 5.797 billion yuan last year, up 10.52% year-on-year, with a net profit of 211 million yuan, down 66.71% year-on-year, and deducted non-net profit of 121 million yuan, down 78.22% year-on-year. More than half of the film and television listed companies, such as Huayi Brothers (300027.SZ), Ciwen Media (002343.SZ), Huawei Culture (002502.SZ), Tang De Film and Television (300426.SZ) and Hualu Baina (300291.SZ), all suffered losses last year, among which the former "film brother". A large number of game listed companies released loss-making financial reports, among which, the "loss king" Tianshen Entertainment had a pre-loss amount of 7.8 billion yuan, of which 4.9 billion yuan was accrued for goodwill impairment.

  "Behind the decline of the film and television industry is the outbreak of some industry problems under the rapid development for many years, mainly focusing on the two elements of over-reliance on IP and stars. As a result, the value of stars and IP is rising, and video websites are constantly posting money. However, with the high pay of star artists corrected by all parties last year, IP has repeatedly failed, and the original industrial value chain model is no longer suitable, so it is necessary to build a new industrial value chain." Zhou Chen, an entertainment industry analyst, said.

  According to statistics, among the TV dramas with TOP45 broadcast volume of Tencent Video in 2018, TV dramas with non-big IP and non-traffic stars accounted for 62.22%; In TOP35′ s variety show, the proportion of non-big IP and non-traffic stars is as high as 54.17%. Wang Juan, editor-in-chief of Tencent Video, said that with the ebb tide of big stars and big IP, users will be more critical, and good works in the future will need to meet users’ psychological demands, be well-made and be innovative.

  Since last year, three major video websites, Youku, Iqiyi and Tencent Video, have jointly issued a document to boycott the high pay of stars. IP failure has also aggravated the cold winter of the film and television industry. Wang Xiaohui, chief content officer of iQiyi, said that the previous big IP model was shattered. Typical examples are Tian Sheng Chang Ge and Wu Dong Gan Kun, which are far below the expected results.

  The cold winter of the entertainment industry is mainly reflected in the upper reaches of the industrial chain, but video websites have not been affected too much. On the contrary, the influence of online channels is constantly expanding. According to the China TV Drama Industry Development Report 2019, 382 new dramas were broadcast in 2018, of which the number of webcasts is more than twice that of Shangxing dramas, accounting for over two-thirds, and the quality of online dramas is getting stronger and stronger.

  Hou Hongliang said: "The emergence of online video has subverted the traditional TV play mode and industrial model, and the online channel has natural advantages. Take online drama as an example, online drama should be consistent with its communication form, viewing scene, revenue model and user’s demands, instead of simply premiering on the online platform. In traditional TV dramas, every creation must strive for the largest number of viewers, so that it is possible to obtain better viewing data from a small number of sample households. The choice of paying users of online dramas is very clear. It is very important to study the demands of target audiences and accurately locate works. Therefore, the direction of online drama creation must be market segmentation, typology of themes, and whose strategy and content are more accurate. "

  The rise of video websites to build a new world of entertainment

  From the initial second-round broadcast platform of movies and TV series, to the linkage between Internet and TV stations, and then to the solo broadcast of self-made TV dramas, the voice of video websites is constantly improving, and video websites have also paid a lot of financial costs. In this case, video websites need to strengthen the control of upstream and downstream to better control costs and expand profit models.

  Wang Xiaohui said: "The copyright of new media has dropped from 18 million to 8 million now, and most of them are at 3 million." On the other hand, build your own IP, stars and related TV dramas. Last year, Gong Yu, the founder and CEO of Aiqiyi, put forward the vision of "Apple Orchard", that is, to expand the content ecology of Aiqiyi from video to pan-entertainment fields such as literature, animation, live broadcast, games, e-commerce, ticketing and artist brokerage.

  At the Iqiyi World Conference, iQiyi systematically displayed 21 application service product brand matrices including iQiyi main station, Chibabu, iQiyi bubble, iQiyi sports and iQiyi VR for the first time. At the same time, the two innovative directions of iQiyi original film plan and interactive content technical standards were officially released, aiming at providing solutions to the problems currently faced by the partners in cinema films and multi-content fields through business model innovation and technology and content combination innovation.

  The increasing dominance of video websites means that video websites will continue to strengthen content control, and a number of external entertainment companies will also be embedded in the industrial chain of video websites to strengthen cooperation.

  Then, when there are problems with stars and IP, can video websites lead content creation to reduce industry risks and build a healthier industry ecology? In Gong Yu’s view, video websites have three magic weapons: one fish eats more, original content and technical support. Content originality is the basis for video websites to integrate internal and external resources to create high-quality content, while technical capability support is to continuously reduce the risk of film and television investment and improve the ability to create explosions through artificial intelligence, big data and even the latest film and television technology such as interactive video technology. The mode of eating more than one fish is to help maximize the value of entertainment content, and only a few major video websites can achieve these three points at present.

  After the cold winter is a new round of rapid development of the entertainment industry, and the dominant players will become video website giants.

  In the face of the cold winter, Wang Xiaohui believes that the superposition effect of the emerging generation with different consumption views and wealth after the 1980 s and the Internet users after the 1990 s has brought stronger impetus to the entertainment industry. "Users have a stronger demand for high-quality content and a stronger demand for high-quality content that is suitable for their own personalized content. After 80, you can pay for the game, and after 90, you can pay for The Avengers. The locomotive of this industry is the Internet, which has revolutionized all industries, including our entertainment industry. In the current era, the trend of the entertainment industry and our update cycle and frequency of fresh content are getting shorter and faster. " Wang Xiaohui said.

  A large part of the growth of the entertainment industry is the growth of the content payment market, which is a big plus for video websites. In 2018, the number of subscriptions of global streaming media surpassed that of cable TV, and the number of online video members in China surpassed that of cable TV. In 2018, the iconic paid income of iQiyi became the largest source of income.

  No matter who dominates, it is basically centered on the audience. Hou Hongliang said: "In the process of constantly exploring the mode, type and differentiation of entertainment content, the most correct thing to do is not to despise the audience, not to give up the creative subject, not to lower the production level and awe of creation, and to constantly present it with more professional images and expressions."
