There is a kind of power that makes people move, a kind of great love that makes people admire, and a kind of emotion that makes people move. Wang Huanyun, 55, is a rural doctor at the clinic of Chenjiapu Village, Yishui Town, Zhushan County, and the principal of the village’s "warm home" for AIDS prevention and treatment. He is rooted in the countryside and silently dedicated on the front line. He has treated AIDS patients in remote mountain villages. He is the "most beautiful rural doctor" and the "most beautiful Communist Party member in Shiyan City in 2016". He spreads positive energy and shows the demeanor of workers in the new era.

In 2001, Wang Huanyun discovered the first case of HIV infection in Zhushan County. Since then, Wang Huanyun has held dual positions, not only responsible for the basic medical work of the whole village, but also obligated to undertake the prevention and treatment of 30 patients infected with AIDS due to unclean blood in five nearby villages, Chenjiapu, Tianqiao, Hejiawan, Shaojiagou, and Overflow Street. For 14 years, he has used responsibility and care to support a blue sky for AIDS patients, enabling AIDS patients in remote mountain villages to be treated, and the families of many AIDS patients to receive help.

In 1976, Wang Huanyun, who graduated from high school, became a private teacher. The reality that the local villagers had become impoverished due to illness deeply hurt him, so he decided to switch to medicine, and from then on, he began his career as a village doctor. One day, a man in his 40s came to the clinic with a festering skin and a high fever. Wang Huanyun treated his cough, asthma, chest pain and other symptoms for two days, but it did not improve. The clinic could not diagnose the man’s illness, so the patient was transferred to the county hospital.

The attentive Wang Huanyun suspected that the "strange disease" was likely AIDS based on the relevant knowledge he learned from newspapers and television. He found through investigation that farmers from several nearby villages had sold blood in Henan, and he immediately reported the situation to the town health center. After hearing the news, the county CDC took a series of measures to confirm that the patient had AIDS. In the subsequent census organized by the county CDC, multiple cases of AIDS patients were found one after another.

As we all know, AIDS is a very harmful infectious disease, and the world talks about AIDS differently. When Wang Huanyun gave contact treatment to AIDS patients, he did not wear gloves, masks, or any self-protective equipment. This is not in line with medical regulations! Does Wang Huanyun not understand the basic medical knowledge that healthcare workers should "avoid occupational exposure" during the diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases and other diseases?

In fact, Wang Huanyun was thinking from the patient’s point of view. He knew that AIDS patients themselves had low self-esteem, were withdrawn, and were psychologically fragile. They could not accept people’s discrimination and alienation, and they longed for everyone’s understanding and closeness.

Chenjiapu village and a river across the Hejiawan village, living in the oldest, named Xiang Lan (pseudonym) of AIDS patients, she is 60 years old this year, in 2004 was found to be infected with AIDS. Under Wang Huanyun’s careful treatment, her husband and younger generation are in good health. In 2006, Wang Huanyun from our country’s AIDS prevention and control expert Professor Gui Xien won AIDS family self-help production funds support, Xiang Lan family received 5000 yuan of cattle support funds. The family worked together to raise cattle, quickly out of the predicament of life.

In the farmyard less than 10 meters away from Wang Huanyun’s house, there is an AIDS patient named Chunli (a pseudonym). In early 2012, Chunli unexpectedly became pregnant with a pair of twins. After being persuaded by Wang Huanyun, she planned to have an abortion surgery, but she went to five hospitals and was rejected. Chunli returned to Chenjiapu Village to ask Wang Huanyun for help, preparing to give birth to the twins. Wang Huanyun adopts the treatment method of combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine, and constantly implements mother-to-child blocking treatment for her to prevent the fetus from being infected.

During Chunli’s pregnancy, in order to ensure the safety of the fetus, Wang Huanyun would take her to have a maternity check-up every month. Half a year later, the due date was approaching, and Chunli was very anxious because the local hospital did not have the conditions to receive such special births. Wang Huanyun rushed to Shiyan City, nearly 200 kilometers away, and contacted a hospital for Chunli. On October 31, 2012, the twin sisters were finally born. In order to keep the twins growing up healthily, Wang Huanyun took good care of them, monitored them in a timely manner, and regularly conducted comprehensive physical examinations for them. At present, the physical examination indicators of the twins who are nearly 2 years old are normal.

There is still no cure for AIDS, and there is no effective vaccine for prevention. In a small village deep in the mountains, Wang Huanyun is the hope of the villagers with chronic diseases. Wang Huanyun has been with patients for more than ten years, and he knows that the meaning of companionship is far greater than the meaning of treatment. Wang Huanyun, who has been a village doctor for so many years, is good at pulse recognition, acupuncture, massage, and Chinese herbal medicine. Over the years, it is impossible to count how many times he has relieved the pain of the villagers. The most touching thing is his care for AIDS patients.

"Ready to sacrifice his life for the party and the people at any time", for this oath, Wang Huanyun, who has 16 years of party experience, fought on the front line, rooted in the grassroots, happy with hardship, and dedicated himself to work. He is an ordinary person around us, but he has built a precious spiritual home with silent perseverance. He has no lofty words, but he is heart-to-heart with patients. Let us say to this "most beautiful Communist Party member": Thank you!

Fan Bingbing Wet Hot Shot MV

　　　 On the afternoon of the 12th, Fan Bingbing and Chen Bolin filmed the theme song MV for the film "Guanyin Mountain" that will be released on March 4th. In order to create the shocking beauty and emotional torn effect of the water MV, the two have been practicing nervously until the media visit. "Fan Ye", who has always been atmospheric, still seems very nervous. The two who are soaked all over the body bluntly said in an interview with the media that the water is not good, and they are not in the mood to talk about love. They just want to seize all the time to practice nervously. Fan Bingbing is doing enough insurance work for underwater shooting, chest stickers, swimwear and light gauze. In the next two or three days, Fan Bingbing will also challenge the high difficulty of singing in the water. The help of Han Han and Fan Xiaoxuan makes her confident. As for the song title director Li Yuhe and the producer Fang Li refused to disclose, and his blunt words were still being kept secret.
　
Fan Bingbing, Chen Bolin underwater lingering MV stills beautiful psychedelic　

　　　 The help of Han Han and Fan Xiaoxuan makes the theme song of "Guanyin Mountain" full of mystery. In the latest set of underwater stills, the mermaid-like Fan Bingbing is dressed in pink tulle and lingers underwater with the male lead Chen Bolin. The picture is beautiful and romantic, full of psychedelic atmosphere. Due to the strict requirements of director Li Yu, the two can only dive into the water repeatedly to hold hands and move forward. The difficulty is too high, which causes the two to surface repeatedly for great ventilation, soaking in water for 10 hours. In order to have a super stunning MV for this work that has won him the award of the Tokyo Film Festival, and to thank his friends for their support, Fan Bingbing admits that hardship and fatigue are not the main problems. He hopes that the theme song and film can be recognized by young people.

　　　 On the afternoon of February 12, Fan Bingbing secretly appeared in a studio in the suburbs of Beijing and went wet with Chen Bolin, the male star of the movie "Guanyin Mountain", to shoot the MV for the theme song of the film. Fan Bingbing’s later work "Guanyin Mountain" has been confirmed to be officially released in the mainland on March 4. The theme song of the film was also specially invited to Fan Xiaoxuan to compose the music, Han Han wrote the lyrics, and Fan Bingbing sang. At the filming scene of the MV, Fan Bingbing and Chen Bolin played in the artificially built ultra-deep swimming pool, fulfilling the requirements of director Li Yu. Fan Bingbing, who tried to shoot in the pool for the first time and had poor swimming skills, was unable to enter the play because of insecurity. However, in order for this work that won him the award of the Tokyo Film Festival to have a super stunning MV, Fan Bingbing can be said to have spared no effort, even if the skills are not good, even if the exhaustion of swimming is completely ignored. However, after entering the state, Fan Bingbing is quite like a mermaid, showing the noble and pure beauty of the movie queen.

Han Han and Fan Xiaoxuan dedicated songs to "Guanyin Mountain"

　　　 As Fan Bingbing’s post-title work, "Guanyin Mountain" has given Fan Bingbing a deeper affection than previous films. This time, for the theme song of the film, he and director Li Yu jointly recruited friends Fan Xiaoxuan and Han Han to help out. The two shared the lyrics and songs, while Fan Bingbing sang. Fan Bingbing played a wild and rebellious bar singer-in-residence in the film "Guanyin Mountain", challenging Fan Xiaoxuan’s song in the film. In the process of discussing the creation of the theme song with director Li Yu, he once again thought of inviting Fan Xiaoxuan to help out. As for Han Han’s help process, the crew said it would not be disclosed for the time being.

Recently, on the 10th anniversary of Ele.me, Ele.me, which was put into Alibaba’s arms in April this year, has made full use of Alibaba’s funds and resources to launch a series of activities to accelerate business expansion and market capture. In fact, although the competition between Meituan and Ele.me originated from food delivery, the war has already spread to a broader local service business. On the one hand, Meituan Dianping, which is fully fledged and is about to go public, and on the other hand, Ele.me, which is connected with Alibaba’s system, who will be better?

Takeaway old things, Ali’s thoughts

According to the data of 17 years and the first half of 18 years, Meituan is a well-deserved leader in terms of transaction volume and user platform distribution. Even though Ele.me acquired Baidu takeaway in August last year, it is still inferior to Meituan, which has more than half of the market share. However, the takeaway market, which originally thought that the pattern had been set, has made a comeback with Ele.me’s defection to Ali Langyan. The takeaway business is the largest local life service entrance, which is not only Meituan’s main business but also the strategic support point for Ali’s layout of new retail. In fact, there has always been a shadow of Ali’s capital in Meituan’s initial financing, but Meituan was dissatisfied with Ali’s strength and control. Ali also lost patience with Meituan’s wavering between Tencent and Ali, and the two sides eventually parted ways. Now Alibaba is spearheading Ele.me, investing 3 billion yuan this summer to achieve the short-term goal of raising Ele.me’s market share to 50%. In the opinion of Ele.me CEO Wang Lei, Alibaba’s battle of living locally is "impossible to lose", which also means that Alibaba will invest huge funds and resources in Ele.me.

The ecological closure of the largest unicorn

In the "2017 China Unicorn Enterprise Ranking", Meituan Dianping ranked first in the e-commerce industry with a valuation of 30 billion US dollars. After Meituan Dianping officially submitted the prospectus to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on June 25 this year, its valuation was as high as 60 billion US dollars. Meituan Dianping has built a one-stop comprehensive life service platform to connect merchants and consumers, creating a "merchant + service + consumer" ecological closed loop. Its business coverage is beyond the reach of other competitors. According to Meituan Dianping’s prospectus, food delivery, in-store catering, and hotel tourism are the company’s main businesses, contributing more than 90% of its revenue and gross profit. At the same time, Meituan Dianping has launched new businesses such as fresh food, online car-hailing, and merchant services this year, continuously improving the local service system and building ecological barriers.

From a financial point of view, Meituan comments on the one hand, the rapid expansion of revenue, benefiting from the number of users, transaction frequency, flow rate, as well as new business development, brand influence and other factors, in 2017 the company’s gross merchandise volume and operating income reached 357 billion yuan and 33.93 billion yuan, revenue growth rate of 161.2% exceeded the gross merchandise volume growth rate of 51.0%. On the other hand, Meituan losses continue to narrow. According to the prospectus, from 2015 – 5.91 billion yuan narrowed to 2016 – 5.35 billion yuan, 2017 further narrowed to – 2.85 billion yuan, loss halved within 3 years. It is worth mentioning here that, like companies such as Xiaomi and Meitu listed in Hong Kong before, Meituan also has "non-operating losses" due to the increase in the fair value of "convertible redeemable preference shares" issued to shareholders in past financing. Therefore, after excluding the special accounting treatment related to the above, the "adjusted net loss" is more valuable.

Close combat, local service will eventually die?

Ali has been punching frequently since its acquisition of Ele.me, and it has accelerated its action after Meituan Dianping submitted its prospectus. Although Meituan Dianping stands behind the major shareholder Tencent, Tencent is more like an investor than a controller, and there is no deep cooperation or connection between the companies it invests in. Therefore, the current competition landscape is Meituan’s ecological closed-loop against the deep integration of Ali + Ele.me. The two sides have gone head-to-head in various fields, Meituan takeaway and Ele.me in the field of catering takeaway, Dianping and word-of-mouth in life information, in-store catering, and baby elephant fresh and Hema Fresh in fresh new retail. Through the timeline of the expansion of the local service business of both parties, it is not difficult to see that many of the new businesses are still small in size, and many of the cooperation and opening up have just begun, and the market share will still change.

2024 is almost halfway through, and NIO recently released its 2024 Quarter 1 earnings report and delivery data for May. At present, NIO’s overall market performance cannot be said to be much worse, but it is not particularly good.

First of all, NIO’s revenue declined slightly. The financial report shows that Quarter 1 revenue is 9.91 billion yuan, which is down 7.2% year-on-year compared with 10.676 billion yuan in the same period of 2023, and 42.1% month-on-month. At the same time, NIO’s vehicle gross margin fell from 11.9% in the fourth quarter of last year to 9.2%, and the loss further expanded to 5.185 billion yuan, an increase of 9.4% year-on-year. The situation is not good.

It is said that NIO has been burning money. In terms of R & D expenditure, NIO Quarter 1 invested 2.86 billion yuan, which narrowed a lot compared with 3.97 billion yuan in the fourth quarter of last year. It is already 2024, and some new car-making forces have turned losses into profits. NIO still has not been able to achieve profitability, which is obviously not conducive to development. Even if NIO still has 45.30 billion yuan in cash reserves, it is not a good way to burn money like this.

NIO’s sales performance is indeed tepid now. Quarter 1 delivered a total of 3,053 new cars, a decrease of 3.2% year-on-year and a decrease of 39.9% month-on-month. Compared with the previously expected target of 31,000 to 33,000 vehicles, it is still a little bit short. However, in late March, NIO made a little adjustment to Quarter 1’s delivery forecast, lowering it to about 30,000 vehicles, which is considered a "clever" target.

In fact, NIO’s recent sales performance is still a little improved, May delivery of 20,544 vehicles, in April delivered 15,620 new cars, all achieved year-on-year growth. According to the second quarter delivery guidance given by NIO, it is expected to deliver 54,000 to 56,000 vehicles, as long as the June delivery of 17,000 to 19,000 new cars, basically can achieve the goal.

However, NIO had previously set a goal of delivering 230,000 vehicles in 2024 with great ambition, and the reality did not seem to be so smooth. From January to May this year, a total of 66217 new cars were delivered, only 28.79% of the overall goal was completed. In the remaining half a year, it is not small to catch up with the remaining progress.

Next, I am afraid that NIO can only pin its hopes on Ledao Automobile. The existence value of this second brand of NIO is originally to take volume, and it can also relieve the pressure on NIO’s operation to a certain extent. Li Bin once revealed that the operating goal of the Ledao brand is to maintain a gross profit margin of more than 15%. From the perspective of break-even, Ledao can achieve break-even when it reaches a monthly sales volume of 20,000-30,000 vehicles.

However, NIO wants to achieve a turnaround in a short period of time, it is obviously more difficult, after all, Ledao Automobile wants to achieve 20,000 – 30,000 monthly sales results, not to say that it can do things, with the current market competition intensity, can break through 10,000 cars are already very good.

Car Online ReviewWhat is it?NIO, which focuses on the mid-to-high-end market, has been bound by its own brand positioning from the very beginning. It is undeniable that relying on its high-end image, NIO has indeed made a name for itself, but down-to-earth products are often more marketable. Now that NIO has begun to put down its position to make money, this step will have to be taken sooner or later. As for whether this step can go well, this is the most concerned thing in the entire industry and NIO’s large and small shareholders.

On the evening of August 25, Evergrande Motor announced its interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2023 on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

According to the financial report data, as of June 30, 2023, revenue was 155 million yuan, an increase of 540.98% year-on-year. Evergrande Automobile said that the increase in revenue was mainly due to the group’s start to sell Hengchi 5. The company’s gross loss was 61 million yuan, an increase of 531.54% year-on-year, mainly due to the rising prices of core components such as batteries and chips and the lack of large-scale production, which made the manufacturing cost higher.

It is worth noting that the results show that in the first half of 2023, the Group’s administrative expenses decreased by 15.54% year-on-year to 935.92 million yuan, mainly due to the decrease in employees, the salary reduction of certain current employees and the decrease in R & D expenses.

As at 30 June 2023, the Group employed a total of 1,597 employees, approximately 92% of whom had a bachelor’s degree or above, and incurred total staff costs (including director’s remuneration) of approximately RMB 313.85 million during the reporting period (H1 2022: RMB 937.98 million).

The new car is also equipped with the W-HUD head-up display function developed by Chery, which can display the speed, dynamic ADAS, navigation, telephone and other forms, and can also make the user’s line of sight more focused, which is conducive to safe driving. In addition, the Tiggo 8 PRO is also equipped with SONY luxury 10-speaker surround sound, as well as a full-fledged atmosphere light group.

　　In terms of space, as a seven-seat model, the performance of the interior space of the Tiggo 8 PRO car is acceptable, and the design of hollowing out the back of the front seat gives more room for the second row of legs, which better ensures the seating space of the third row of passengers, and the performance of storage space is more conventional.

　　In terms of power, the new car will be equipped with a pure fuel vehicle with a 1.6TGDI/2.0TGDI engine and the latest Chery Kunpeng DHT hybrid system. Among them, the 1.6T turbocharged engine has a maximum power of 197 HP and a maximum torque of 290 Nm. The maximum power of the 2.0T engine is 254 HP and the maximum torque is 390 Nm. Both power versions are matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox and a four-wheel drive system is available.

　　In the future, the new car will also be equipped with Chery Kunpeng DHT hybrid system, which will provide "3 engines, 3 gears, 9 modes and 11 speeds" with "CHERY AWD" Chery all-scene intelligent control four-wheel drive system, so that the new car has six all-scene road modes including economy, ordinary, sports, camping, skiing and cross-country.

★　Test drive review

　　Previously, we have tested the 2.0T model version (the test-drive version, and the test drive experience does not represent the final production version). The engine parameters of this model are 254 HP and 390 Nm, which are in line with the 2.0T high-power engine of the first-tier manufacturers, but there are still some gaps in the actual experience. Mainly reflected in the power output process is not linear enough, and the low torsion performance below 2000rpm is weak. In addition, the stroke of the accelerator pedal is relatively long, and there is still a little empty position in the initial stage, which leads to the need for more accurate control of the ankle when following the car at low speed, otherwise the power will suddenly break out after the speed exceeds 2000rpm, and it is easy to go forward.

　　But if you are the kind of driving style that you must rush out first, then the performance of this engine will definitely satisfy you, skip the initial fatigue and go straight to the power sweet zone, and this momentum can continue until 5000rpm. Even if the cruise state suddenly accelerates, it can be done in one go, don’t believe you look at the test results.

　　For dual-clutch gearboxes, the attitude of China brand is mostly to keep comfort and abandon shift speed, and Tiggo 8 PRO is no exception. According to the standard of a family car, its performance is qualified, and the selection of gears and the switching between gears during stop-and-go can be smooth and natural, without any obvious frustration and hesitation. It’s just that in the face of sudden high power request, the speed of downshifting is not fast, and it’s not decisive enough. It can’t be lowered to the right gear at once, and sometimes it needs to be replenished.

　　The chassis does not adequately filter small bumps, and it is also sensitive to the feedback of road information, and there will be redundant jumping when passing through potholes and speed bumps. But if you insist, it doesn’t count. After all, there is no strong impact transmitted to the car. The long-stroke suspension is not well restrained when facing the roll, and the response of the car body is also lagging behind. Generally speaking, it is comfort and movement, and both sides are not in place, giving people a very general sense of texture and advanced feeling.

　　In general, the driving texture of the Tiggo 8 PRO is not as young as it looks, coupled with the high sitting posture and fuzzy steering wheel directivity, it still has a strong sense of "middle age". According to the data released by the manufacturers, the proportion of owners of Tiggo 8 over 36 years old is 56%, and that of Tiggo 8 PLUS is 40%. The main car buyers of Tiggo 8 PRO in the future will definitely be middle-aged, so this driving experience is in line with their car demand.

Tiggo 8 PLUS』

Tiggo 8 PRO』

　　The Tiggo 8 PRO is the third model of the Tiggo 8 family. At present, it is consistent with the two brothers in the series in terms of three major parts and body size, but it has changed its appearance, interior and configuration. Compared with Tiggo 8, which focuses on economy and practicality, Tiggo 8 PLUS focuses on luxury, while Tiggo 8 PRO focuses on youth and technology. It is aimed at the post-90 s family, which not only inherits the advantages of the large space of Tiggo 8 series to meet household needs, but also meets the needs of intelligent networking and young design after 90 s.

★ competitors

"Changan CS75 PLUS』"

　　As an SUV with a wheelbase of 2710mm and a price range of 150,000, Tiggo 8 PRO will continue to compete with its old rivals such as Changan CS75 PLUS, Haval H6 and Bo Yue X. While the Tiggo 8 family is constantly updating, competing products are also constantly innovating. For example, at the end of February this year, the new CS75Pulse, a powerful competitor in this market, ushered in the market. In terms of paper strength, Tiggo 8 PRO has a good technology and automatic driving assistance configuration compared with competing products. At the same time, Tiggo 8 PRO will launch a hybrid model in the future, and it has taken a leading step in power selection compared with competing products. I hope its appearance will contribute to the sales of Tiggo 8 family.

★ Edit comments

　　At present, there are more and more young consumers in the domestic SUV market, and manufacturers have begun to further upgrade and optimize the younger models. Tiggo 8 PRO is a model born in this background, which evaluates the fashionable and dynamic design and rich configuration to attract young consumers. With different product style positioning, Chery has also made a good market segmentation of the Tiggo 8 series models to meet the car purchase needs of more people.

　　Looking at the sales volume of the Tiggo 8 family, by 2021, the annual sales volume of the Tiggo 8 family reached 166,000, and the global sales volume of the Tiggo 8 family reached 27,250 in January and February this year, up 12.1% year-on-year. In addition, in less than four years, the Tiggo 8 family has entered the country and marched overseas. At present, the global cumulative sales in dozens of countries around the world such as Russia, Egypt and Brazil have exceeded 480,000. It can be seen that the product strength of the Tiggo 8 family is still trustworthy. I believe that after the launch of the Tiggo 8 PRO model, it will bring better sales performance and product reputation to the Tiggo 8 family. (Text/car home graduated)
