Not long ago, Geely just revealed its trump card – Extreme Krypton 001, Zero Hundred 3.8s, and its high performance with a battery life of over 600km amazed many people.

　　Now, at the 2021 Shanghai Auto Show, the official showcased more information on Lynk & Co’s new mid-to-large SUV Lynk & Co 09 on the spot. It is reported that the new car is based on the SPA architecture and will be launched within the year.

　　Unlike many previous models of the Lynk & Co series, the Lynk & Co 09 not only features a straight waterfall-style front grille design on the front face, but also a large fog lamp area with a straight waterfall-style design, featuring strong steel bars and a three-dimensional feel.

　　In addition, some family-style designs are still preserved, such as the frog-eye daytime running lights still placed on both sides of the front cover of the engine, and the independent logo of Lynk & Co in the middle.

　　As Lynk & Co’s flagship SUV, the Lynk & Co 09 adopts a SPA architecture. And Volvo’s flagship SUV – XC90 is also based on this platform, which has better safety and superior performance. Such as high-strength body, aluminum suspension and so on.

　　For reference, the Volvo XC90 has a length, width and height of 4953/1958/1776mm, and a wheelbase of 2984mm. It is expected that the Lynk & Co 09 will not be much different from it.

　　Of course, another advantage of a shared SPA architecture is the powertrain. The new car will provide a 2.0T hybrid combined powertrain in the future, including 2.0T + 8AT 48V mechanical four-wheel drive; 2.0T + 8AT PHEV electric four-wheel drive; 2.0T HEV light hybrid electric four-wheel drive, etc., with a 100-kilometer acceleration of 5.6s.

　　In addition, Lynk & Co 09 will be equipped with a dual independent suspension combination of front double wisharms and rear integrated multi-link. Some models will also offer air suspension and continuously adjustable shock absorbers to better meet the driving needs of different terrains and environments.

Hongguang PLUS, which was launched in October last year, has won the favor of many users with its atmospheric and fashionable appearance, spacious and practical space performance, and strong 1.5T power. After its listing, it has also achieved good sales in the MPV market segment.

Recently, we learned from GM that Hongguang PLUS 1.5L will be available in May, and the expected price range is 5-60,000.

The new car has not changed much in terms of appearance and interior, mainly in terms of configuration. It is understood that the upcoming Hongguang PLUS 1.5L model is divided into two configurations. Both models come standard with safety configurations such as ABS + EBD system, EPS electric power steering system, and tire pressure monitoring device.

In addition, the high-end models are also equipped with front driver airbags, reversing radar + reversing images to escort consumer safety. At the same time, the high-end models have also improved in terms of comfort configuration, all-inclusive interior and leather seats, central control screen and multi-function steering wheel, armrest box are equipped, the appearance is equipped with aluminum alloy wheels, high-brightness black net and front fog lights, the overall cost performance has improved a lot. For models in the price range of 5-60,000 yuan, the competitiveness is still very strong.

In addition to the more refined appearance design, Hongguang PLUS still retains the two advantages of large space and super carrying capacity. According to the official body size data, the length, width and height are 4720/1840/1810mm respectively, and the wheelbase reaches 2800mm, which is in line with the positioning of larger wide-body models. The wide space creates a more comfortable ride effect, and also makes the transportation efficiency higher. Users can also flexibly allocate the interior space according to the actual car scene, and it also has advantages in competing models.

Write at the end

As the flagship model of the Hongguang family, the Hongguang PLUS has launched two-seat and five-seat versions one after another since its listing, and also launched a version with passenger qualification to meet the escalating needs of users. In the future, with the launch of the Hongguang PLUS equipped with 1.5L power, the Hongguang family product line will be further enriched and provide users with more choices. In addition, the price range of 5-60,000 yuan and the kind configuration, I believe this is a new car worthy of consumers’ expectations.

Character Profile: Cai Xukun, born in Zhejiang in 1998, grew up in Shenzhen. In 2012, he participated in the program "Up! Youth" and first entered the screen. In 2018, he recorded the program "Idol Trainee" and debuted with the highest vote C (core position). After that, he released his first EP "1", creating a number of music records. Recently, he released the single "No Accidents", which quickly topped multiple music charts.

(Caption: At the end of January 2019, Cai Xukun was interviewed by Global People in Beijing.)

The conversation between Universal People and Cai Xukun began with a psychological test. The test is as follows: If you notice something peeking into your room outside your window, what do you think it would be? A. Monkey; B. Frog; C. Doll; D. Alien. Cai Xukun looked at the board for a long time and finally settled on D.

The answer was revealed. This was a stress test, and the option represented the biggest source of stress in the heart: aliens symbolize interpersonal relationships, you may want to avoid interpersonal problems, and sensitive you will be stressed by taking care of other people’s feelings. Putting down the question board, Cai Xukun paused and said, "D, it’s quite accurate."

Every moment you’re alone makes you stronger.

It is true that less than a year after his debut, Cai Xukun’s public awareness has increased exponentially, and the people around him, the people wh***ollow him, and the people who comment on him have swept in like a tide. In early 2018, a program called "Idol Trainee" made him famous, and since then "C" has become his distinct label. In the year since his debut, his works have been hotly discussed and noticed, and he is also a friendship ambassador for Zhongya (Jamaica), an ambassador for the 2019NBA Chinese New Year, and a spokesperson for the ******* Taiwan ****** Festival Gala. Recently, he launched a new song "No Accidents", which reached diamond sales on a music platform in less than 2 minutes. It can be said that Cai Xukun’s every move has become a hot topic in the public opinion field.

The positive side of this attention is that fans follow his positive image. Influenced by Cai Xukun’s personal donations and participation in public welfare activities, a large number of young people have participated in education and poverty alleviation, helping the public welfare construction of libraries, welfare institutions, and ecological forests.

However, the other side of attention is the ubiquitous social magnifying glass. It can be said that at the age of 20, Cai Xukun was caught in a storm of red and black almost overnight. Faced with these, Cai Xukun did not think about it. He also wondered whether his decisions were all right after going on stage and wrote songs and lyrics in the middle of the night, trying to use his creation to say something that cannot be said in daily life. When asked why Weibo always has so few words, he replied with four words: "Be careful with your words and deeds."

"[For the media] I was actually injured, and the reason for the injury was that I didn’t mean it, but I was misunderstood. These things make people cautious, so I used to feel like a hedgehog," Cai Xukun said.

Cai Xukun is a sensitive person. He was born into an artistic family, and many people in his family are engaged in art-related work. The family atmosphere has invisibly influenced his personal interests. Music has become Cai Xukun’s first important partner in life. Participating in various competitions since childhood, and then singing, dancing and acting have made his perception of the outside world much more delicate than his peers.

Sensitivity also comes from loneliness. At the age of 15, Cai Xukun went abroad to study and lived alone with a local family in the United States. "When there is no class, I will stay indoors watching movies and listening to songs. When I feel homesick, I will endure it."

In order to integrate into the local area, Cai Xukun used sports and music to make friends. He played basketball, joined the school team, learned to sing with the locals, and was exposed to all kinds of music.

Karl Lagerfeld, the fashion "Galeries Lafayette", once said: "If you want to create, loneliness is the best charger, and loneliness is victory." Lonely, people’s sensibility and reason tend to reach a certain peak. Alone in a foreign country, Cai Xukun began to try to write songs. Wearing headphones, he observed people on the street for inspiration. He described that period as "growth", whether it was mental or ability, a watershed had passed. "During that time, I learned that people should be able to tolerate loneliness and believe that every time they are alone is an experience that makes them stronger," Cai Xukun said.

In 2016, Cai Xukun returned to China to participate in a reality TV show and began to pursue his dream. However, what seemed like a glittering starting point was actually a more difficult journey.

(Picture: On January 9, 2019, Cai Xukun was awarded the China-Jamaica Friendship Ambassador and China-Jamaica Outstanding Young Leader)

Dream to sleep with me, if not realized, I will lose sleep

Before the reporter interviewed Cai Xukun, he was told by many colleagues that this is an extremely self-disciplined artist. The so-called "extreme self-discipline" means always tightening the strings and never letting up.

Seeing is believing. Our interview started in the background of a large-scale event. Before the interview began, Cai Xukun greeted each staff member, bowed slightly, and repeated "hard work". After the interview, we were about to leave, and Cai Xukun, who had already started to touch up his makeup and was ready to go on stage, suddenly stood up, bowed and thanked us, and didn’t sit down until we went out. The fellow photojournalists were surprised, and Lian said: "After working for so many years, this is probably the first artist to watch us leave."

"Every day when I wake up, I think about what I want to do today and what tasks I want to complete."

"Before going to bed every day, I will review today’s work, what has been done well, and what needs to be improved."

"I have to restrain myself and calm down. If I’m too impulsive, I can’t make music down to earth."

"I will never give myself too many presuppositions. If others put you at a higher starting point, you should spend more time practicing and becoming better, rather than enjoying the flowers."

****

In interviews, Cai Xukun often has such a precocious and introspective answer, saying: "I know I seem to be a little out of line with my age." Much of this "inconsistency" comes from his situation in the last three or four years. After entering the entertainment industry, Cai Xukun’s life has had a roller coaster experience.

In 2016, it can be regarded as the real starting point of Cai Xukun’s acting career. He participated in the competition, and during the recording of the show, everyone went to rest every day except sleeping and eating. He was still watching the stage replay, and the details of the problem were repeatedly corrected. He also participated in film and television dramas, but the script was rotten, and he was embarrassed to show it to reporters when interviewed.

The effort never stopped, but the harvest came slowly – for a while, Cai Xukun’s career was almost at a standstill.

At that time, some people advised him to stop making music and go to acting, but Cai Xukun didn’t think so. Recalling that time, he said that he did "the craziest thing", "that is, he never gave up and always insisted on music." The most difficult time, when he couldn’t sleep, Cai Xukun encouraged himself: "Dreams are something that sleeps with me. If I don’t realize it, I will lose sleep." It was also at that time that Cai Xukun completed the first published original single "I Wanna Get Love".

In January 2018, Cai Xukun took the stage of "Idol Trainee" with his own songs and received the first A rating on the show. But at the same time, his performance and styling were highly discussed. For him, it was all a battle of the backwater: "I have experienced not being recognized and not being cared for, so I have to put aside all the bad experiences and pressures before and start again. It is not a gamble, but it does take courage."

In the program group, Cai Xukun is a model worker who often practices dancing until the early morning, and the director comments that he is "not in a bad state"; when pressing his legs, he is "super hard" and "pressing to death", because "you can break through by being hard on yourself"; if the skin on his hands is seriously allergic, he hides his hands behind his back when the camera is photographed, "you must show everyone the best look"; he is too tired to sleep on the stage, "I don’t have time to feel homesick at all"…

Why do you fight so much? He wrote the reason in the song he participated in during the competition: Come here, everything is zero, and he strikes alone. He feels that because he has had and lost, he is skating on thin ice; and because he dreams and believes, he always insists.

On April 6, 2018, Cai Xukun made his debut in the C position of "Idol Trainee".

The quietness in life, the excitement in creation

On the first day of 2019, director Bi Gan’s new film "The Last Night of the Earth" was released, and Cai Xukun secretly went to the cinema to watch it. "I like it."

"This movie has been questioned a lot." The reporter discussed with him.

"But I think it’s not worth it to discuss whether it’s worth it or not, but more importantly whether you feel it. I like the details of how people get along in the movie, and the quiet and surging shooting method of the whole movie."

He loves a long shot in the movie, where the male protagonist slides from the mountain to the small town at the foot of the mountain on a cableway, and all the characters, stories, and actions are shot to the end. "I usually shoot things by myself, so I like longer shots, and I don’t like to cut them too much, because the long shot can observe the expressions of many characters or the current emotions, as if you are really following and witnessing the occurrence of the story, which has a kind of documentary feeling."

Cai Xukun likes this kind of literary and immersive film, and it is easy to calm down when watching it – quiet has become the most frequent word in our interviews. "This personality is probably related to family," he said. "When I was very young, I lived with my grandfather. He liked to write calligraphy and play musical instruments. I listened to old songs with him and watched him write. I felt very quiet." This atmosphere also cultivated Cai Xukun’s aesthetic.

Cai Xukun had a motto, "In the world of flowers and flowers, keep your heart still", which was enough to describe his state along the way. "There are all kinds of voices in the outside world, and all kinds of things are happening. I must remind myself to keep a quiet heart at all times to create and work."

In Cai Xukun’s opinion, only when he is calm can he think, and only when he thinks, can he know what he really wants. Therefore, after the competition, he did not strike while the iron was hot, but put aside a lot of exposure opportunities and variety shows, and spent time writing songs and recording. "As a singer, I should first make a good musical work, and then participate in variety shows to show more aspects of myself to everyone."

On August 2, 2018, Cai Xukun released his first original EP (mini album) "1" on his birthday. A total of three songs were written, composed and produced by him, and these three songs combined with Chinese and English are basically the summary of Cai Xukun’s road to fame. "I didn’t expect that I would be here, I lost my way, can you help me? The future of this road is uncertain." "The second chance is not easy, I know it very well, I never thought that things will remain the same, will there be an end?" "I want to sing to you in your ear, calling my name in the dark, you don’t need to bear all this."

Cai Xukun said that he regards creation as a storytelling process. Recently, he released the lyrical single "No Accidents", which is his own lyrics: "The night has slowly fallen, the moon is hiding, and I want to find stars to replace it." Speaking of the song, Cai Xukun said: "I personally think it is a more artistic work, and there will be some deeper things. I hope that through these works, everyone can see more different me." The quietness in life and the surging in creation are the states Cai Xukun hopes to achieve.

In fact, in Cai Xukun, there are many similar contrasts. For example, he once took out a crumpled plastic bag from his pocket before the performance, which was filled with accessories used on the stage, so he was laughed at by fans as "old man making pie"; he likes listening to Teresa Teng and Cai Qin, likes watching "Sleepless in Seattle", and the Empire State Building is still the most beautiful scenery in New York in his mind; he claims that there is an old soul living in his body, "My mother taught me that life must be simple"; he also wants to make a short documentary film for everyone to see how he has come all the way…

Another contrast is that he seems gentle and quiet, but in fact he is vigorous. When asked by a reporter from Universal People "if there is any unshakable principle in his work", he replied: "The principle is that I have to see everything before I can go out." For example, for a song, Cai Xukun once flew to South Korea to re-cut it overnight because he was not satisfied with the initial cut of the MV. "The first 10 seconds of intro (prelude), a full 4 hours of cutting". He has a strong desire to control music creation and stage performance.

Perhaps this desire for control comes from insecurity. As an entertainer, he has experienced ups and downs, and he knows that luck is not something that can be controlled and manipulated by humans. If you can’t even control your own work, it is too passive. So he said: "For me, music and stage are free and safe."

(Caption: Cai Xukun and director Dave Meyers at the filming scene of the "Wait Wait Wait" MV in November 2018.)

Cai Xukun said he was most afraid of three things: losing the stage, losing confidence, and losing IKUN (his fan nickname). "I’m not a particularly confident person, but when I have a lot of strength behind me, I will dig out that part of my confidence." One day, to encourage himself, he wrote a letter to himself, including one sentence: "Because I am no longer alone, I am no longer afraid to shine."

A sensitive soul and a determined will, quiet and ambitious, these are two sides of Cai Xukun’s body. Such a personality also allows him to be self-consistent in storms and controversies. Asked by a reporter from Global People how to relieve stress in the whirlpool of the entertainment industry, he replied with a slight joke: "Hold it in."

"I embrace everything, because time will tell," he said.

As BYD has raised its "established" target for 2024, the matrix of its models has also been continuously enriched, and some new models will be launched one after another in the second half of the year. Recently, the BYD Sea Lion 05 DM-i has been unveiled one after another. The new car is the second model under the Sea Lion IP. It is positioned as a plug-in compact SUV. After the launch, it will compete with the BYD Song Pro DM-i on the same stage. It is reported that the new car is expected to be officially launched at the end of September. At present, new cars have arrived in stores one after another.

The new BYD Sea Lion 05 DM-i adopts the design style of "marine aesthetics". The shape of the front of the car is more fashionable, the size of the air intake grille is wide, and the middle net adopts a borderless design. The two sides are decorated with dot matrix chrome-plated trims, which has a sense of waves. The shape of the headlight group is slender and decent, the internal lens is clearly outlined, and it supports LED far and near light sources.

The body’s posture is smoothly stretched, the design of the suspended roof and the decoration of the surrounding trim of the window enhance the sense of fashion, the waist line is more prominent, and the intermittent design is adopted, which echoes the prominent rib line in the lower skirt position, enriching the layering of the body. The shape of the multi-format wheel hub is exquisite and generous.

The tail of the new car is designed with multiple straight lines, creating a certain sense of hierarchy. The spoiler is relatively flat, and it is equipped with high brake lights. The taillight group adopts a through design, and the lenses on both sides are parameterized. The visual effect after lighting is good.

The length, width and height of the Sea Lion 05DM-i are 4710/1880/1720mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2712mm, which is the size data of a relatively standard compact SUV. The interior of the new car adopts the design of the encircling cockpit, the layering of the center console is clear, and the shape of the LCD instrument panel is square, which echoes the floating central control screen. The built-in Dilink car system has a good response speed and practicality performance. The bottom is decorated with a water ripple trim. The four-frame shape is flat, consistent with the steering wheel shape of the 07 DM-i.

The layout of the console area is reasonable, the top is equipped with a slender air conditioner to trend out, the shift area is a round style, the shape of the crystal electronic shift lever is exquisite, and the periphery is equipped with neat physical buttons, including start buttons, electronics, volume adjustment and other buttons. In addition, 50W wireless charging module, USB interface, 60W Type-C charging interface are all equipped, and the small details are controlled in place. The front seats are designed in one piece.

In terms of power, the new car offers BYD’s fifth-generation DM plug-in hybrid technology, equipped with a 1.5L engine with a maximum output power of 74KW, a motor with a maximum output power of 120KW, and a blade battery. The new car is expected to perform well in terms of battery life and fuel consumption.

From the currently known information, the BYD Sea Lion 05 DM-i is a "main" household SUV, which may further emphasize "cost performance" and become another "volume" model under the Ocean Network. What do you think the starting price of the new car will be?

Landmap, a homophonic "blueprint", symbolizes a beautiful plan and prospects. But since it announced its independence on June 26, 2021, Dongfeng’s high-end brand of new energy vehicles, "Landmap", is experiencing the transfer of the No. 3 person after 18 months in office, and sales continue to decline. It has even announced a high-profile learning of the direct-operated + experience store model of Tesla, NIO, etc., and is also transforming into a dealer franchise model. Since its establishment one year ago, Landmap has no "blueprint"?

As a subsidiary of Dongfeng Motor Group, Lantu announced its entry into the high-end new energy vehicle market in 2020, targeting Tesla, NIO, Ideal and other brands. But after experiencing a significant increase in sales in the second half of last year, it seemed to be lackluster, and it encountered Waterloo in the first quarter of this year.

Lantu Experience Store (Zhiliao Car Shooting)

In terms of sales, in the first two months of this year, Lantu’s month-on-month decline has maintained a continuous decline of more than 50%, and the company’s management has also changed. Lantu, which once insisted on "living for users", has now become a sales-only theory. This new energy brand under Dongfeng may have stood at the crossroads of high-end new energy vehicles, and the situation is quite embarrassing.

"Number Three" was transferred after 18 months.

In 32 years, the minister of the Dongfeng system left sadly

According to sources familiar with the matter, Lei Xin, the chief brand officer (CBO) of Lantu, who had served in the Dongfeng department for more than ten years, has been transferred at the end of March this year, and his position has been temporarily taken over by Lantu CEO and CTO Lu Fang.

Lei Xin’s departure, even within the company, seemed very sudden. "It was quite sudden and unexpected," a person familiar with the matter said. "The day before, Lei always had a meeting and deployed relevant work until late at night, and there was no abnormality."

Zhiliao Automotive found that this is another change of position since Lei’s new appointment at Lantu, only about 18 months apart from the last one.

Landmap executive team members: Dongfeng Company Deputy General Manager, Landmap Chairperson You Zheng (third from left), Landmap CEO and CTO Lu Fang (second from right), Chief Brand Officer Lei Xin (first from right), chief operating officer Jiang Tao (first from left) and Chief Financial Officer Shen Jun (second from left)

On July 17, 2020, Lantu held a press conference in Wuhan to announce the launch of the "Lantu" brand and enter the high-end new energy vehicle market. At this press conference, Lantu’s executive team also made its debut to the outside world. This time Lei Xin appeared as the chief brand officer of Lantu for the first time.

Zhiliao Automobile found that whether it was from this press conference or subsequent activities of Landmap, Lei Xin was ranked after You Zheng and Lu Fang, and could be called the "No. 3 person" of Landmap.

This executive, who is so important to Landmap, is a veteran with more than 30 years of experience in Dongfeng. As early as 1990, Lei Xin joined Dongfeng Motor Company as an engineer. Since then, Lei Xin has successively served as the head of the strategic planning department, general manager, and executive deputy general manager of Dongfeng Motor, Shenlong Motor, Dongfeng Infiniti and other companies. As of March 2022, Lei Xin has been working in Dongfeng for 32 years, which can be regarded as witnessing the rise and fall of an automobile manufacturing company.

According to Tianyancha data, from March 23 to April 2 this year, Lei Xin has stepped down from the positions of heads of seven companies, including "Landmap Sales and Service Co., Ltd. Chengdu Branch".

Perhaps one of the main reasons why it has not been widely reported in the industry is that Lei Xin currently has many related connections with Landmap. According to Tianyancha information, Lei Xin also holds important positions in 56 other companies, all of which are related to Landmap.

But it cannot be ignored that the sudden transfer of Lei Xin may be directly related to the dismal sales of Lantu in the first quarter of this year.

It has fallen by more than 50% for two consecutive months.

Only 8% of the annual target was achieved.

Or the main reason for the adjustment

According to the statistics of China Automobile, in the first two months of this year, the sales of Lantu increased by -53.36% and -52.35% respectively. Especially in February, the sales volume of the month was only 740 units, which was the second-to-last result after the mass production of its models, only better than the sales volume in the first month of August last year.

Landscape’s sales growth trend since August last year (Zhiliao Automotive Drawing)

It was not until March this year that Lantu’s sales resumed to more than 1,000 units, but this achievement was also unsatisfactory.

Data from the China Automobile Association shows that Landmap ranked only 13th in the sales of large SUVs in March, not only falling behind the ideal and NIO, but also losing the top 10 last year.

In 2022, Lantu called out the goal of "sales 46,000, production 48,000", which is even more than 3 times that of last year (13,000), but as of the first quarter of this year, the production and sales of Lantu’s first model, Lantu FREE, were 6044 and 3693 respectively, and the completion of production and sales was only 12.59% and 8.03% of this year’s target.

This is a very obvious gap with direct competitors NIO ES6 and Ideal ONE. In the first quarter of this year, NIO ES6 sales were 5064 units, and Ideal ONE sales reached 11,034 units. The sales volume of Lantu FREE in the first quarter is less than the sales volume of the two direct competitors in March.

It can be said that Lantu is gradually falling behind in the domestic mid-to-large SUV market with fierce competition. This may also be one of the important reasons why Lei Xin, as the direct person in charge of market brand, sales, innovation ecology and commodity planning, failed to achieve the expected goals in the first quarter and was transferred away.

The growing gap in sales with its rivals has forced Lantu to transfer executives. This may just be a trigger for Lantu’s strategic adjustment, or a microcosm of the continuous struggles of this new energy brand owned by Dongfeng.

Direct sales to franchise,

Is "living for users" a slogan or a real innovation?

According to Zhimiao Automotive, Lantu is currently recruiting franchisees, trying to share its huge marketing costs in the way of franchises, and quickly expand its channels. This seems to be another major adjustment in Lantu’s strategy along with Lei Xin’s transfer.

"Dongfeng Motor has no shortage of funds. What it lacks is top-level design, strategic determination and the determination of leaders. The system and mechanism have not been properly managed, so whether it is fuel vehicles or new energy, Dongfeng Motor cannot do it," the media quoted senior Dongfeng officials as saying.

Behind the personnel turmoil and the adjustment of the direct sales model, it seems that Dongfeng has compromised with Lantu in the embarrassing situation of continuous decline in sales, but this cannot help but raise doubts: Lantu, which "lives for users", is an empty slogan or a real innovation?

At the beginning of its establishment, Lantu claimed to "live for users", positioning "to provide users with a high-end smart electric experience with zero anxiety".

However, whether it is the official launch of Lantu or its product performance over the past year, it seems that there is a lack of innovation, but it is mainly based on following the trend.

According to some media, at the July 2020 press conference, Landmap announced that it would adopt an innovative business model and organizational mechanism to address the six major anxieties of users about electric vehicles, but how to innovate the business model and organizational mechanism and how to solve the anxiety of users were not introduced.

And when Ideal, NIO and other new domestic car-making forces are showing their leading three-electric technology and driverless strength to users, Lantu can only shout "user-centered", and use "new car-making strength" to Pengci "new car-making forces" in words and words.

In the product design of Landscape, there is also a lack of sufficient sincerity to impress users. The first car Landscape FREE actually has a very similar design and positioning to the ideal ONE, but Landscape FREE is not only released more than two years later than its competitors, but also has a more obvious gap in various configurations (for example, the ideal ONE body is larger, the pure electric battery life is 48 kilometers longer than Landscape FREE, and the battery is also higher), while the price of the two cars is almost the same (the ideal ONE starts at only 10,000 more expensive than Landscape FREE).

From positioning to product design, Lantu’s sales decline is no accident. Behind it is the clumsiness and rigidity of a state-owned auto giant’s transformation into an automotive technology company. It also appears to be reflected in Lantu’s executive style.

You Zheng, Deputy General Manager of Dongfeng Company and Chairperson of Lantu

According to the data, the senior management team of Lantu and the deputy general manager of Dongfeng Motor in charge of Lantu, You Zheng, all have obvious professional backgrounds in FAW Group or state-owned enterprises.

"From the perspective of the executive team, the first is very traditional, there are no talents from internet companies and technology companies. The second is that most of them are back-office managers and have no experience as traders," said one securities firm analyst. "[Landmap] is more like a technology company on the surface."

And Lei Xin, who had experienced many Dongfeng companies and was a "generalist" in marketing, sales and strategy, was now transferred, which seemed even more surprising. "How does it feel that the person who really does things has become the blame man," an insider lamented to Zhiliao Auto.

At present, the biggest problem facing Landscape is how to increase sales, but if you give up users and innovation for sales, this may be the practice of "losing watermelon and finding sesame seeds".

Car Technology recently learned that Cadillac’s new XT5 will be officially launched on September 28.

　　The bench hits the long table and greets the visitors in the courtroom; the five flavors cook the grains, and the smoke is life; the sound of the piano is accompanied by laughter, and the old wine and new tea tell the voice of the heart… On April 21, the third season of Hunan Satellite TV’s "Yearning for Life" held a media viewing and sharing meeting in Beijing. The new season will go home warmly at 22:00 every Friday night from April 26, and continue to accompany you for "happy dinner".

　　In the ****** ** 2017, "Yearning for Life" met with everyone for the first time. From Miyun, ******* to Tonglu, Hangzhou, the program spanned the north and south, went deep into the countryside, conveyed the beauty ** labor and life, and led the audience to discover the vitality ** the fields contained in peace and tranquility. Feel the joy from sowing to harvesting, and move from the eyes to the heart.

　　The new season’s program was still familiar, and some changes had been made at the same time. Liu Xianhua said goodbye temporarily due to work arrangements, and Zhang Zifeng joined the new lineup, together with Huang Lei, He Jiong, and Peng Yuchang, to form the new season’s permanent lineup. This time, the "Mushroom House" was settled in Wengcao Village, Merong Town, Guzhang County, Xiangxi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, and the Xiangxi style was coming.

　　Hong Tao, deputy director of Hunan Satellite TV Channel, said that "Yearning for Life" was originally a very pioneering new model. This time, it is used to help and observe the perspective of "rural national conditions research". The creative team will definitely use their brainpower to give a demonstration to the country’s rural and national audiences, bringing more meaningful inspiration to everyone.

　　"Family with children" is newly born

　　Mushroom House welcomes the first resident female guest, Zhang Zifeng, Peng Yuchang, brother and sister meet again

　　"New news announced! The new member of the third season of" Yearning for Life "is the returning guest Zhang Zifeng! Zhang Zifeng and Peng Yuchang’brother and sister ‘are gathered together, this combination is so satisfactory! The interaction between the two in the second season is a super real brother and sister relationship. What more interesting interaction will there be this season?"

　　The spring breeze blew the memory. Everything seemed to be yesterday, and in the blink of an eye, the story in the mushroom house has entered the third season. Liu Xianhua said goodbye with regret, and Zhang Zifeng, the popular guest of the "mushroom house" in the past, joined the permanent lineup this season, forming a new four-person family together with Huang Lei, He Jiong, and Peng Yuchang.

　　At the media viewing, Huang Lei introduced: "In’Little Farewell ‘, she is my daughter; in’Take My Brother Away’, she is Yu Chang’s sister. We are like a complete family. Teacher He and I are two parents respectively. Our eldest, Dahua, has gone to school. Our second child can already be alone and go to the ground to plant rice. Now we have a cute little sister."

　　Talking about why Zhang Zifeng was chosen to join, the director-general Wang Zhengyu said with a smile that it was a "passive choice". Because of the previous cooperation, Zhang Zifeng established a natural character relationship with Huang Lei and Peng Yuchang. Zhang Zifeng is both Huang Lei’s "daughter" and Peng Yuchang’s "sister". This time Zhang Zifeng came to visit, Huang Lei thought that Liu Xianhua was not at home, and Peng Yuchang would be deserted as a child, so he proposed to let his sister stay: "The main guests of the first recording are Zhou Bichang, Ye Yiqian, Huang Yali, Ji Minjia and Huang Shujun. Teacher He said that when Huang Yali participated in Supergirl, she was the same age as Zhang Zifeng. From Zhang Zifeng, you can see the expansion of growth and change. "And Zhang Zifeng’s addition obviously increases the expression space of the program invisibly.

　　From the guest of the mushroom house to the host, Zhang Zifeng harvested her own insights: "As a young generation, what I often fear most is going to the countryside, because there is no way to look at my phone, but I found that I can actually put it down and really feel life. Find something that is easy to ignore in the city."

　　Life always has someone coming, always someone leaving

　　"The Longed Life" is a romantic condensation of reality

　　When "Yearning for Life" was newly born, it was evaluated as "the origin of domestic slow variety shows". Three men with a dog lived in a quiet and picturesque village, following the code of "self-reliance, hard work; self-sufficiency, warm hospitality", and felt the yearning life in ordinary days.

　　Huang Lei lamented, "The original intention of the show is to see the beauty of China’s countryside from a different perspective. When we really go into the countryside, experience the changing seasons, deeply feel the people’s feelings, and experience a more simple and natural way of life, I think it activates the intimacy between the pastoral and nature in our bodies."

　　The show has a warm Slogan "We are together, is the life we yearn for". In the past three seasons, the mushroom house has been crowded with people and more and more animal friends. In the first season, Xiao H, who was still a single dog, had Xiao O as his company and gave birth to four treasures: pots, bowls, pans, and pots; the lanterns are getting fatter and fatter, and he still likes to think about life; Tianba’s mother Diandian passed away unfortunately, and he welcomed a new friend, Su Su.

　　At the movie sharing session, the edited clips of the zeroth episode of "Yearning for Life", which will be launched at 23:00 on Hunan Satellite TV on April 25th, were broadcast, and the live media were eager to see it. The theme of this issue is "Dear Dahua", which expresses the reluctance and miss of the Mushroom House family for him. Although the environment has changed, the texture of the "Mushroom House" has not changed, and everyone can even see Yang Ying and Ni Ni’s swing, Wang Luodan’s pink piglet… A wall full of photos records every happy and warm memory.

　　In Mr. Wang’s view, "The Life of Yearning" conveys the true nature of life everywhere: "Some viewers say that our show has become a zoo, this is where it is romantic, everything is there, but there are also birth, old age, sickness and death. Some people come from afar, some people go out to study, and life is the best show, we just condense it."

　　Leaders and guests jointly press the "Light up Futian" start button

6 light up guests accept the "light up certificate"

The ninth issue of "Light Up Futian", the host talks to the main creator of "Emergency Rescue"

The host talks to the model worker

　　This year is a special year. In the face of the sudden COVID-19 epidemic, the lofty qualities of giving up a small family for everyone, talking about loyalty, courage to sacrifice, and dedication have been reflected in countless people. From those who are retrograde on the medical and scientific research front, to those who are on duty in the front line of epidemic prevention and control in communities and towns, to those who are struggling to ensure the basic life of the people, whether they are on the front line of anti-epidemic or not, they are all based on ordinary jobs, adhere to their beliefs, and work hard to achieve extraordinary achievements in protecting people’s health and safety.

　　On the evening of December 22, "The ninth issue of’Lighting up Futian ‘: Struggle to interpret life, art lighting up Futian" met with the public as scheduled at the 116th floor of the Cloud Sightseeing Floor of Shenzhen Ping An Financial Center. This event invited national model workers Chen Chun, Shenzhen model workers Liu Zhiwen, Yu Yang, and the director of the movie "Emergency Rescue" Lin Chaoxian, actors Peng Yuyan and Wang Yanlin as dialogue guests. Gao Dawei, member of the Standing Committee of Futian District Committee and Minister of Propaganda Department, Xie Xi, executive deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the District Committee, Feng Jing, general manager and executive deputy editor of Jingbao Media Co., Ltd., chairperson of Bona Film Industry, Yu Dong, district two offices, district propaganda department, district urban management and comprehensive law enforcement bureau, public security bureau, Futian street office, district federation of trade unions, Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine Shenzhen Hospital, Ping An Group, Jingbao Media, Bona Film Industry and other relevant leaders and employees attended the event.

　　Understand the heroic feelings and convey the power of struggle

　　"Today we are gathered here to pay tribute to the laborers and the strugglers. Of course, every ordinary person should have a dream in his heart and work hard for his dream." In his speech, Gao Dawei said that a batch of model workers and advanced workers have emerged in all walks of life in the jurisdiction. They have created extraordinary achievements in ordinary positions, and have interpreted the valuable qualities of dedication, dedication, innovation and pursuit of excellence with practical actions. As a "first-class area", Futian needs to set an example, vigorously promote the spirit of labor, and continue to write extraordinary stories in ordinary positions, so that the people’s sense of acquisition is better, the sense of happiness is more sustainable, and the sense of security is more secure.

　　The movie’Emergency Rescue ‘is the first Chinese-language film about maritime rescue, telling the story of real-life "superheroes" in China who rescue people from danger and come forward. "Due to the pandemic, the movie’Emergency Rescue’ has been delayed until the end of the year," said Yu Dong. "When we watch this movie again, we will have a new understanding of life. I think the movie can heal people’s hearts and comfort their hearts, and I hope that in the cold late winter, it can bring a touch of warmth to every audience affected by the epidemic."

　　Speaking about the original intention of making the film, director Lin Chaoxian said that in the face of nature, people are always so insignificant. Rescue is a race against time and life. The rescue of people in "Emergency Rescue" is a group of ordinary people who will still choose to rescue themselves in the face of natural disasters. "The rescue spirit of’giving the hope of life to others and leaving the danger of death to themselves’ is so great, and I admire them very much. It has always been my wish to make a movie about the little-known story of rescuing people and let them enter the public eye."

　　In this film, actor Peng Yuyan breaks through the style of the previous "big sunshine boy" and challenges himself to play a father, who is also a rescuer. Peng Yuyan said that the director wanted to present a rescuer with real emotions. In order to play this role well, he worked hard in the early stage to restore the image of his father. "This shooting experience has given me a deeper understanding of the role of father, and it can be regarded as a new challenge."

　　Actor Wang Yanlin shared the director’s experience of diving 30 meters underwater with the actors to take the shot in person in order to get the best effect during the shooting: "Team hard work has taught me the meaning of courage and perseverance, and those who persevere until the end can be blessed by’Lucky Muse ‘. Thank you for the power of the hero’s example, and thank you to the crew for giving us the opportunity to play the hero."

　　Model workers share stories of their struggles in the workplace

　　A hero is a benchmark, a group of heroes is a plateau, and the power of example is infinite and eternal. For heroes and heroic spirit, the best learning is practice, and the best tribute is inheritance.

　　Not long ago, at the 2020 Shenzhen Model Worker and Advanced Collective Commendation Conference, National Model Worker Chen Chun, Shenzhen Model Worker Liu Zhiwen, and Yu Yang were honored. The three model workers shared with the guests and citizens their stories of sticking to their positions, working hard and harvesting "happiness" in ordinary positions.

　　Liu Zhiwen, deputy chief of the Zhuzilin Fire Rescue Station of the Futian District Fire Rescue Brigade, recalled that he was involved in an emergency rescue operation in a sewer and underground river. At that time, the water flow at the scene was fast and the rescuers could not stand still. Under harsh conditions, he and his teammates searched for nearly 10 hours before finally rescuing the workers who were swept away. "Although I was also very scared in that situation, as a firefighter, I had to rush to the front line."

　　Chen Chun, a deliveryman at SF Express, talks about how happy he is when customers affectionately call him "the courier guy". "The recognition of customers has made me feel valuable. By working hard in an ordinary position, I have been praised by customers and taken on family responsibilities, which makes me feel very happy."

　　Yu Yang, the first medical worker in Futian District and a nurse at the Department of Critical Care Medicine of Shenzhen Hospital of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, postponed the wedding, cut off her long hair and took the initiative to go to Leishenshan to support at the height of the epidemic. "Patients in Leishenshan do not have access to family members, only healthcare workers can be contacted," she said. "When I take care of one person, it is equivalent to taking care of a family. The satisfaction of patients gives me a great sense of honor."

　　"Struggle to interpret life, art lights up Futian" theme light up

　　"5, 4, 3, 2, 1…" With the on-site guests and citizens counting down in unison, at 7 o’clock that night, the leaders and guests attending the event pressed the start button together, and the theme lights of "Struggle to perform life, art lights up Futian" were played synchronously in 9 buildings in the central area, and the scene was broadcast synchronously on the canopy. At the end of the ceremony, the "Emergency Rescue" crew presented pennants to the three model workers, and at the same time, the six guests were also awarded "Light Up Certificates".

　　It is understood that "Lighting up Futian" is a large-scale lighting event for the light show in the central area of Shenzhen under the guidance of the Futian District Committee Government, sponsored by the Propaganda Department of the Futian District Committee, and undertaken by the Crystal Newspaper Office of Shenzhen Newspaper Group. In the past, every event would invite big coffee as "lighting people" to share their inspirational life stories with the guests and citizens, and light up the colorful and picturesque lights in the central area of Shenzhen. Lu Jianxin, MacFarlane, Dan Zhaoyi, Lang Lang and Gina, Lu Siqing, city builders, anti-epidemic retrograde people, Fang Jinlong, educators, Pu Cunxin… All names are brilliant. Not long ago, "Light Up Futian" was awarded the "Top Ten Creative Projects" of the 17th Shenzhen Caring Action, which refreshed the image of Futian as the "first good district" and the "main living room of the city".
