Fuel vehicles and electric vehicles set off a decisive battle: many people call for an extension of the exemption from the purchase tax for new energy vehicles

On April 1, the China Electric Vehicle 100 Forum (2023) was held in Beijing.

As an annual industry event for the new energy automobile industry, this forum brought together guests from various fields such as automobiles, energy, transportation, cities, and communications to discuss in depth the development situation of the global automobile industry, the high-quality development path of new energy vehicles, the development strategy of China’s intelligent connected vehicles, the development trend of the core industrial chain supply chain such as power batteries, the trend of new generation automobile consumption change, the coordinated development strategy of automobiles and energy, and the new transportation energy security system.

Compared with the 100 Forum in previous years, this year’s forum, the guests paid more attention to the topics of new energy vehicle infrastructure building, autonomous driving commercialization landing, and vehicle-road collaboration.

At the same time, many attendees also called for the extension of the new energy vehicle purchase tax exemption policy to stabilize the high-quality development of the industry.

Fuel vehicles and electric vehicles set off a decisive battle

In the past few years, the new energy automobile industry has rapidly heated up and become an important bright color in the process of high-quality development of the automobile industry. The gradual increase in the market penetration rate of new energy vehicles has also brought a significant impact to the traditional fuel vehicle industry.

Recently, influenced by multiple factors, there has been a price chaos in the automotive market, with most fuel vehicle companies cutting prices at an unprecedented rate, causing heated discussions on the whole network.

At the China Electric Vehicle 100 Forum (2023), Ouyang Minggao, vice chairperson of the China Electric Vehicle 100 and an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, made a judgment on the current industrial landscape.

He said that the current new energy vehicle market is fully squeezing the fuel vehicle market, and the entire fuel vehicle industry chain is under pressure. The competition between the two has kicked off a decisive battle.

Ouyang Minggao believes that the current new energy vehicle industry is characterized by "rapid growth and lack of profit", while fuel vehicles are "lack of growth and profit". Although the cost of new energy vehicles is still higher than that of fuel vehicles, the brand, influence and premium of new energy vehicles are rising, and the premium of joint venture fuel vehicles is declining. High-quality new energy vehicles can compete with the price of joint venture fuel vehicles.

"The camp of new energy vehicles continues to expand, and you are chasing after me. The competition has entered the stage of positional warfare, and the market has entered the stage of survival," Ouyang Minggao said.

Faced with the close competition between gasoline vehicles and electric vehicles, Mary Warlick, deputy director of the International Energy Agency (IEA), judged that by the mid-2020s, electric vehicles will achieve cost parity with traditional gasoline vehicles.

At the same time, the development of new energy vehicles has also brought a linkage effect to various related industries. Zou Ji, CEO of Energy Foundation (China) and President of China, believes that full electrification is an inevitable choice for high-quality development, pollution reduction and carbon reduction.

"According to the very conservative development goal of electric vehicles, by 2030 our country’s oil dependence is more than 70%, of which 13% can be replaced by electric vehicles. But according to the rapid development of these two years, it may far exceed this proportion. According to the oil price of 110 US dollars/barrel, at least 50 billion US dollars of imported oil expenditure should be saved a year." Zou Ji judged that promoting the full electrification of the automobile industry is not only good for traffic emission reduction and energy security, but also has great economic benefits.

The full marketization of new energy vehicles still faces challenges

Despite the significant growth rate and promising prospects, the current new energy vehicle industry still faces many challenges.

Wan Gang, chairperson of the China Association for Science and Technology, concluded that the comprehensive market-oriented development of domestic new energy vehicles faces the following challenges:

First, the development of comprehensive marketization is uneven and inadequate, and product performance and quality are still difficult to meet consumers’ needs for all-weather and all-scenario use.

Second, the progress of new energy commercial vehicles is slow and the market penetration rate is low.

Third, compared with the rapidly growing market demand for new energy vehicles, the infrastructure building of charging, hydrogen refueling networks, and vehicle-road coordination is still relatively lagging behind.

The fourth is the bottleneck of industrial development, including high prices of basic resources, poor supply chains, and some technical constraints.

Fifth, the bottleneck of industrial technology constraints. Including power battery upgrades, vehicle-grade chip shortcomings, power electronics architecture reconstruction, intelligent operating system research and development, as well as low-carbon development planning, carbon footprint research shortages and other issues.

Therefore, at this forum, Wan Gang suggested that the environmental adaptability, safety, and economy of pure electric vehicles should be continuously improved; basic research such as all-solid-state batteries and new system batteries should be continuously promoted; charging efficiency should be improved to further meet the needs of the whole climate and all scenarios in the market.

Xin Guobin, a member of the Party Group and Vice Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, analyzed the changing trend of the new energy automobile industry pattern from an international perspective.

He believes that in the international situation, the rise of anti-globalization and trade protectionism has threatened the stability of the automobile industry chain and supply chain, affecting international exchanges and cooperation. At the same time, domestic automobile consumption has been relatively sluggish this year, and the pressure on the stable operation of the industry has increased.

"The automotive industry has typical international characteristics, and new energy vehicles need cross-regional and cross-industry collaboration. We will continue to adhere to the principles of openness, cooperation and win-win, and create a market-oriented, rule-of-law and international business environment. Strengthen exchanges and cooperation with other countries in the fields of new energy vehicle technology innovation, trade and investment, standards and regulations, and contribute positive forces to the modernization of China’s automotive industry and inject new impetus into the recovery of the world economy," Xin Guobin said.

Focusing on the future of industrial development, Chen Qingquan, an honorary professor at the University of Hong Kong and an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, believes that in the second half of the automotive revolution centered on intelligence, special attention should be paid to automotive chips and operating systems.

"The software and hardware systems involved in the future car are not covered by one industry, and should be integrated across borders." Chen Qingquan believes that the second half of the automotive revolution is intelligent, networked and shared, and its main core technologies are automotive chips and operating systems.

Call for Extension of New Energy Vehicle Purchase Tax Exemption

After recognizing the many challenges facing the development of the new energy vehicle industry, a number of industry players called for an extension of the new energy vehicle purchase tax exemption policy at this forum.

Among them, Meng Xia, CEO of Volkswagen passenger car brand China and head of group sales of Volkswagen Group (China), said that despite the short-term slowdown in market demand, Volkswagen is confident in the continued recovery of China’s auto market. In order to promote the sustainable and healthy development of the industry, it is called for extending the purchase tax exemption period for new energy vehicles beyond 2023 and formulating a relatively stable policy framework.

It is reported that at the press conference on the theme of the "Authoritative Department’s Opening" series held by the State Council Information Office on March 1, Vice Minister of Finance Xu Hongcai once again mentioned that new energy vehicles purchased in 2023 will continue to be exempt from vehicle purchase tax.

But in fact, automakers’ calls for continued policy support go beyond that.

Wang Chuanfu, chairperson of BYD, said at the China Electric Vehicle (2023) 100 Forum that the automobile market is changing every day, but the trend of electrification will not be reversed. At present, the timetable for the full electrification of automobiles in our country has been advanced and the process is accelerating. In order to accelerate the modernization of the automobile industry, it is hoped that the purchase tax reduction policy for new energy vehicles will be extended until 2025.

Didi’s management loopholes deserve further investigation, and two executives were removed from the national ride-hailing business

  CCTV News:In response to some netizens’ doubts about the problems of the police in the process of solving the case, the Wenzhou Public Security Bureau immediately organized personnel to carry out an investigation. After questioning the reporter Zhu Moumou and the family of the victim, reviewing the video and report records of the police reception hall, and reviewing the relevant communication records, the police issued a notice saying that there was no "case will not be filed without the license plate number and the driver’s phone number."

  At 16:22 on August 24, the victim’s friend Zhu Moumou went to Yongjia County Shangtang Police Station to report the case. The police used Zhu Moumou’s mobile phone to communicate with Didi customer service. After indicating the identity of the police, they hoped to learn more from Didi customer service. Regarding the relevant information of the owner and vehicle of the hitchhiker taken by the victim, Didi customer service replied that the security expert would intervene and asked to continue waiting for a reply.

  At 17:13, Didi customer service reported to the police that the victim had cancelled the order at 14:10 after booking a ride at 13:00 and did not get on the bus. The police questioned that the order could be cancelled halfway through the ride, and again asked to know the driver’s contact number or license plate number for easy contact, but failed. At around 17:30, the family of the victim also went to the police station to report the case.

  Xie Zhangan, Chief of the Propaganda and Education Section of Yueqing Public Security Bureau: "At around 5:30 pm on the 24th, the family of the victim came to our Yueqing Hongqiao police station to call the police. Her father and his grandfather came over. Her father said that her daughter lost contact, and the police briefly understood the situation. At about 5:36, the police contacted Didi customer service. When the police contacted him, Didi customer service said that it would take about 3 to 4 hours to inquire about relevant information. The police said that the situation was more urgent. According to the police, Didi Company said that the situation could be expedited. At 5:49, Didi Company came back and said that we needed a police card and a letter of introduction, and then the police forwarded the relevant procedures to Didi Company. The relevant emails arrived. At 6:13, Didi sent us their inquiry, the license plate of Didi and the basic information of the driver. "

  The license plate number provided by Didi does not match the registered license plate number.

  According to the police report, the license plate number information provided by Didi was consistent with the license plate number of the vehicle seized by the police the next morning. It is worth noting that the apology statement issued by Didi said that the license plate issued by the suspect Zhong was temporarily forged offline. That is to say, when the license plate number of the crime was provided to the police on the 24th, Didi should have known that the license plate number was inconsistent with the license plate number used by Zhong when registering. This shows that Didi is fully capable of knowing the driver, and it is worth investigating what kind of management loopholes exist in the end.

  Didi will start the national offline ride-hailing business tomorrow

  On the 26th, Didi Chuxing announced that since 0:00 on August 27, it will offline the Hitch business nationwide, removing the general manager of Huang Jieli’s Hitch business department and the vice president of Golden Red customer service. Didi Chuxing said that after the Hitch business goes offline, the company will reassess its business model and product logic internally.

In addition, a special version of EPedition has been launched, with red elements interspersed in the fuselage, which is different from the ordinary version in design language.

As an important medium for human-vehicle interaction, NIO has injected many software-level interaction shortcuts into NIO Phone.

According to reports, the NIO Phone integrates mobile phones and smart electric vehicles through NIO Link NIO panoramic interconnection technology. The phone is equipped with UWB ultra-wideband technology, which can replace car keys and support unlocking without electricity within 48 hours.

On the left side of the fuselage, NIO Phone sets a NIO Link car control key, which can be just a click away 30 driver interconnection functions, including quick view of vehicle status, parking position, complete vehicle unlocking lock, window lift, trunk opening, air conditioning remote adjustment, etc., in the case of mobile phone without network, it can also realize unlocking, flashing horn, vehicle summoning, remote parking and other functions.

In terms of in-car control, Li Bin mentioned that the NIO Phone can be combined with in-car sensors to identify the user’s location and present a car control card interface with different functions based on the driver’s seat, passenger seat, or rear seat.

Li Bin believes that this reflects the original intention of NIO Phone’s design. "In addition to these functions that can be perceived more quickly, it is more about the seamless information flow and relay at the bottom of the software."

For example, NIO Phone has a more detailed understanding of human-vehicle interaction, such as the navigation route relay, which allows users to set a destination and choose a driving route on their mobile phone. After getting on the bus, it will automatically switch to the car-side navigation, and there is no need to perform additional operations on the car. For example, the navigation clipboard relay can automatically pop up and push on the car’s central control screen according to the location text copied by the user on the mobile phone, and the user can enter the navigation after clicking. It should be pointed out that these operations will not go to the cloud, ensuring the privacy and security of user data.

The Inter-App communications application of the mobile phone and the smart cockpit is the key breakthrough direction of this mobile phone. In addition to the aforementioned functions, the NIO Phone currently also has a panoramic application function, namely "Sky Window". After this function is turned on, a separate phone will run on the central control screen of the vehicle, supporting the parallel operation of the central control screen and the mobile phone dual applications. "Windows is not a simple screen projection, these two screens can run different programs in parallel, which is very different," Li Bin said.

For business scenarios, when users use the super conference, they can automatically transfer to the car after boarding the car, and can also call the in-car hardware (such as cameras). In terms of entertainment scenarios, NIO Link games can also be synchronized to the central control large screen to play.

For more systematic privacy and security issues, NIO said that the NIO Phone’s NIO self-developed SkyUI system provides 0 system advertisements, 0 commercial pre-installation, and only local processing of sensitive data. On cloud data protection, NIO Phone adopts multi-key encryption protection, and data and keys are stored separately.

According to reports, the 12GB + 512GB version of the mobile phone is priced at 6499 yuan, the 12GB + 1TB version is priced at 6899 yuan, and the EPedition 16GB + 1TB version is priced at 7499 yuan. It is currently only available in the NIO App Mall.

The 10,000-person scale two-dimensional yuan concert was held in Shanghai and became the main force for ticket purchases

The 10,000-person scale two-dimensional yuan concert was held in Shanghai and became the main force for ticket purchases

  China News Service, Shanghai, July 23rd (Wang Gupi) The fourth Bilibili Macro Link two-dimensional concert hosted by Bilibili bullet comment network, China’s largest young people’s trend culture and entertainment community, was held in Shanghai on the evening of the 23rd. Under the high temperature of 40 ° C that day, 10,000-person two-dimensional fans from all over the country showed undiminished enthusiasm and shared this annual "two-dimensional event" in China.

  Bilibili Macro Link (hereinafter referred to as "BML") is an annual large-scale offline party brand created by Bilibili bullet comment network (hereinafter referred to as "bilibili"), a cultural gathering place of China’s two dimensions (generally referring to Animation, Comic, Game, Virtual Idol, etc.) and the largest young people’s trend culture and entertainment community in China. In recent years, it has formed an increasing influence across the country.

  According to Chai Xujun, general manager of the cultural division of bilibili, BML’s name comes from a programmer’s "brain hole". "Macro refers to the macro command in the computer. We think this activity should be able to connect a very’grand ‘group of two-dimensional audiences, so there is such a name." And from the first 800-person small performance to this year’s 10,000-person scale, BML’s "macro" wish has been gradually realized.

  At the concert that night, in addition to the popular "UP masters" from the bilibili music district, dance district and other major sectors, the organizers also invited well-known foreign stars such as Miyazuki, who had sung interludes for "Digital Baby", to help perform and interact with Chinese fans.

  It is worth mentioning that the world’s first Chinese virtual singer Luo Tianyi and the well-known Japanese virtual idol Miss Black and White also took the stage that night with the latest holographic technology.

  "We want to give all two-dimensional fans a carnival experience. It’s a concert, and it’s a two-dimensional music festival," Chai Xujun said.

  According to the organizers, a total of 12,000 tickets for this year’s BML were sold out in less than two hours. Among them, the most expensive 1280 yuan (RMB) infield tickets were "sold out" in 4 minutes. The main force of ticket purchases this year is the "post-95s" who do not seem to have high spending power.

  "I have been registering for bilibili for many years. I am very curious about what my friends who like the two-dimensional world are like, and I also want to see the behind-the-scenes look of bilibili who has been with me for so long. It’s like wanting to meet an old friend, so when I see BML, I immediately grab the ticket." "After 95" freshman "Yin Lin" said.

  Chen Rui, chairperson of Bilibili, told reporters that in today’s growing spiritual demand, new forms of cultural consumption are also emerging, young people are more willing to accept new things, and the need for cultural consumption structure to develop in a diverse direction is becoming increasingly obvious. "For example, when we started BML, we just wanted to give everyone an opportunity for offline communication, but we didn’t expect to end up with the current 10,000-person scale."

70 years of experience, 70 years of quality persistence | Warmly celebrate the 70th anniversary of the establishment of Kouzi Liquor!

  Today, the official Weibo of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs published a concise but intriguing statement: Foreign Minister Wang Yi’s official vehicles will use domestic Hongqi sedans from today. This is less than 20 days before the launch of the Hongqi H7.



  In fact, the Red Flag is a model that has weathered great storms, in other words, it is also a portrayal of China’s industrial manufacturing. Before starting the article, it is worth briefly recalling the history of the Red Flag.


  First, the history and current situation of the red flag


  Founding and development period: 1958-1965


  In 1958, the leaders hoped that China would have high-end cars and wanted to rewrite the history that Chinese people could not make high-end cars, so the Hongqi brand was born with honor.


  It was not until 65 that Hongqi completed the accumulation from scratch and completed the initial accumulation of technology. Hongqi borrowed and imitated models mainly from the United States, and produced some sedans and inspection cars. The most classic model is the Hongqi CA72. Since then, the Hongqi CA770 high-end sedan has become a national-level courtesy car and a chief car above the Vice Premier of New China, becoming a veritable "national car".


  Stagnation period:


  During the Cultural Revolution that began in 1966, Hongqi CA72 was framed as a "belly car" due to the designer’s background and was persecuted.


  From 1965 to 1970, Hongqi went from imitation to autonomy. However, due to the "movement", Hongqi CA72 was forced to stop production after only a few hundred were produced. Subsequently, Hongqi developed the CA770 model, whose engine was designed with reference to the Cadillac engine. This model then formed a large number of derivative models, including China’s first bulletproof car CA772. However, due to the "political movement", although Hongqi had the right model during this time, production was seriously affected.



  Product lost period:


  From 1970 to 1981, Hongqi went to the road of technological upgrading, but the product failed. In 1972, FAW put forward the goal that it must catch up with the world’s advanced sedan level. In 1975, it produced the world-class car CA774-4E, with curved glass for the side windows of the body, high-strength thin steel plates for the body, four-speed automatic transmission for the gearbox, independent front and rear suspension, radial tires, power steering, and disc braking system. But for "some reason", the model did not pass the review.


  During the period of severe setbacks:


  From ’81 to’ 87, Hongqi went on the road of overseas cooperation. In ’81, German cars already had the intention to enter China, and Hongqi stopped production, but the research and development work has not stopped. During this period, there were negotiations with Nissan, Ford, Chrysler, and Audi to find the possibility of cooperation in mass production. However, due to various reasons, the cooperation with various companies came to an end. During the period, Chrysler maliciously defrauded and suffered heavy losses.


  From ’87 to’ 96, Hongqi once again went down the road of imitation. During these years, Hongqi imitated several foreign models, but for various reasons, they were not mass-produced. Overseas cooperation failed across the board, technicians were suppressed by managers, and the spirit of Hongqi had completely disappeared.


  From 1996 to 2008, Hongqi began to produce new models by OEM. The CA7220 was produced by imitating the Audi 100, the CA7460 was produced by imitating the Lincoln City, and the Hongqi Century Star was produced by imitating the Audi 200. At first, the engine was changed, but later the headlights were too lazy to move, so the new model was directly replaced. During this time, Hongqi never developed again.


  In 2008, Hongqi had a plan to revitalize Hongqi through independent research and development. It plans to produce a new model every year in the future, and it is self-service research and development. Last year, Hongqi H7 and L9 cars were seen at the auto show. On May 29 this year, Hongqi H7 was launched, priced 29.98-47 9,800.



  In fact, after seeing the development history of Hongqi, I feel that Hongqi sedan was a microcosm of China’s industry from its independent research and development in the early stage, to being hit, and then to being in a slump. And when it came to the joint venture period, FAW Group relied on Volkswagen to live, and the 55-year-old Hongqi sedan did not have the spirit of the year. This can be seen from the sales volume of the last two years: only 2 were sold in 2011 and 127 in 2012. It is estimated that these are all customized production, processed from the prototype workshop, and the cost is not cheap.


  Second, the red flag has the best opportunity


  In recent years, independent brands have continued to impact the high-end market, such as SAIC Roewe, FAW Pentium, etc., but the official car market is still controlled by Germany and Japan. Although they have surpassed Japanese and Korean mid-sized cars in some technologies and performance, the market response is still poor. If independent brand mid-sized cars can make a difference in the market, it will have strategic and positive significance for the growth of independent brands.


  After talking about history, let’s talk about the current situation of the red flag. The foreign minister’s car was replaced by the red flag and published on social media, which is quite profound. Does this prove that the state supports the red flag car in full swing? In fact, since the first lady’s visit, many independent brands have entered the best era.


  With the implementation of the "Double 18" official car purchase, automobile companies have also seen the potential of the official market. Hongqi, as the former boss, of course cannot be missed, so he started a series of plans: Zhang Xiaojun, the former executive deputy general manager of FAW-Volkswagen Audi Sales Division, who has served for 7 years, has become the general manager of FAW Car Sales Company, shouldering the heavy task of rebuilding the Hongqi brand. At the end of May this year, Hongqi’s high-end car H7 was launched. Enterprises are ready from the sales side and the product side, and the government has cleared the obstacles from the procurement side. This may be the best historical opportunity for Hongqi.


  III. Can red flags make ideals fly?


  Before Hongqi, there was no bright spot in technology, and the market positioning was in chaos. Hongqi is already a failed brand, which is an indisputable fact.


  At the technical level, in recent years, Hongqi’s strategy has been entirely based on existing foreign products. Chassis, engine, on the basis of prototype cars, modified to avoid patents, which is also a common problem before all independent enterprises. H7 claims to be purely independent research and development, and I personally think it is basically a mature model.


  Market level: Hongqi wants to copy Audi’s success in China too much, and everything is guided by Audi’s success precedent. Focusing on the high-end market, focusing on government procurement, hoping to promote this legendary brand from the top down. This can be seen from the executives transferred to Audi. There is a lack of luxury brands in the market for independent brands, and Hongqi happens to be a high-end government car. It has no choice but to take a detour a few years ago and make some four differences: technically pieced together, the market positioning is high or not, and the market positioning is not low. Home rental business government, where to use it is embarrassing. Now I finally woke up and started to focus on the high-end market. This strategy is also the only way out for Hongqi. If this strategy fails again, Hongqi can be said to never turn around.


  FAW’s plan is that once the government’s top management adopts the Hongqi as an official car, Audi’s market position will change accordingly (I am skeptical of this), and the Hongqi car will be changed overnight due to the market downturn caused by the loss of its leading car position. Although this idea is a bit simple, the beneficiaries of this change are not only Hongqi cars, but also the market position of the entire independent brand B-class car, and even greatly benefit the public’s confidence in the independent brand.



  But although the red flag is actively prepared, how to compete with Audi, BMW, Accord, Passat and other official cars? R & D, production, marketing, quality management, after-sales services, etc., are these red flags ready?


  In general, the recognition of the official vehicle market will take time, and the market side is even more difficult. Not to mention the popularity of German, Japanese, and American products, in addition to mandatory documents, local support cannot be ignored. The only worry now is FAW’s system, efficiency, and marketing integration capabilities. In the next five years, if Hongqi cannot come up with independent and excellent technology and models that conform to official and business temperament, it may be time for the Hongqi brand to disappear.

The takeaway platform does not need tableware options to be embarrassed, and merchants are worried about being given bad reviews.

  During the "meal" period of a restaurant, takeaways waiting for "departure" are filled with the desk Photographer/Intern, Huang Jiating

  The scale of the Internet catering market has doubled, and the problem of disposable tableware pollution is also very serious. It is reported that Meituan and Ele.me, two major takeaway platforms in China, have launched "Qingshan Plan" and "Blue Planet Plan" environmental protection plans respectively. However, some people believe that in dealing with the problem of takeaway waste, the takeaway platform can play a limited role. In addition, catering companies, disposable tableware manufacturers, and consumers should share the corresponding responsibilities to improve the environmental protection problems caused by takeaway lunch boxes.

  Big data shows that 3 out of every 10 Chinese people are takeout users, generating more than 20 million takeaways every day. In the next ten years, the socialization, intensification and industrialization of kitchens will see tremendous development, and the problem of disposable tableware pollution will also come.

  survey

  How much takeaway waste can be generated every day?

  At around 11:30 noon, the deliveryman Xiao Liu hurried into a commercial building at Wudaokou. He didn’t have time to wait for the elevator, so he chose to climb the stairs to pick up the food at the gourmet food stall on the third floor. At this time, in the stairwell leading to the food stall, there were already many delivery guys running up and down like meteors, and the atmosphere was quite tense.

  The peak delivery period is called "rice mouth" by the delivery brothers. In the delivery hotspot – a university campus, during the "rice mouth" period, the delivery frequency of a delivery brother can reach 4 to 5 times, and the order volume for one delivery is about 4 to 5 copies. In terms of takeaway restaurants, according to the observation of the Beijing Youth Daily reporter, taking the rice noodle takeaway as an example, the order volume during the "rice mouth" period is 16 to 25 copies. The standard package includes a pair of chopsticks, a plastic spoon, a plastic round bowl, a plastic round bowl lid, and a plastic bag. If the user’s order requires soy sauce, vinegar, or chili peppers, another 3 to 5 plastic bags will be generated. According to the statistics of standard orders, a "rice noodle takeaway" will generate 16 to 25 meals of lunch box waste.

  In this food stall, there are a total of 14 merchants, each with an order volume of about 20 to 50 copies. Taking each standard lunch box as an example, the food stall produces 840 to 2,100 fast food lunch boxes in one "meal".

  In contrast, the number of takeout orders from large chain restaurants is even more impressive. According to the owner of a restaurant chain specializing in northwestern flavors: "We have about 4.40 million takeout orders a year. According to the average order of four lunch boxes, we should use 17 million lunch boxes a year." The owner admitted that for restaurants, the most concerned is how to ensure that takeout is delivered to customers within 25 minutes to an hour, and that the color, aroma, taste and shape of the dish are basically unchanged when it comes out of the pot. "We have also tried paper lunch boxes," he said. "But Chinese food and beverage forms are particularly rich and complex, and the cartons with soup and water do not penetrate for more than a few minutes. It cannot be achieved in an hour."

  Data from Xinhua News Agency: Our country has more than 20 million takeaways every day. But the amount of waste generated is also worrying. The used lunch boxes are stacked up enough to go three and a half times from the earth to the International Space Station, and the plastic bags can cover 168 football fields.

  current situation

  The rapid development of takeout brings garbage problems

  According to the "China Plastic Products Industry Production and Marketing Demand and Investment Forecast Analysis Report", the cumulative output of plastic products in our country 30.47 million tons in January-May 2017, with a cumulative increase of 3.8%. The growth of plastic products is inseparable from the rise and development of emerging industries such as takeaway. At the "Takeaway Food Packaging Safety and Environmental Protection Seminar" held recently, Zhou Lili, a senior engineer in the comprehensive business department of the China Plastics Processing Industry Association, introduced that plastic products account for a large proportion of disposable tableware. China’s current total amount of disposable tableware plastics belongs to a large consumer group in the world. But in fact, if the per capita is calculated, we are not the largest consumer, but the United States should be the largest consumer.

  Just how big the Chinese takeout market is can be seen by looking at the data released by the two major takeout platforms.

  Meituan comments on big data show that the national takeaway industry has developed rapidly in 2016: in 2016, the overall transaction volume of the takeaway industry reached 130 billion, it is expected to break through 200 billion in 2017, and it will climb to 300 billion scale in 2018. From the user perspective, 3 out of every 10 Chinese people are takeaway users. Ele.me expects the takeaway market to break through 700 billion in 2020.

  According to the analysis, the top reasons why Chinese users choose online takeaway are busy with work and no time to cook, unwilling to cook at home, preferential activities for takeaway, delicious meals for takeaway, bad weather, and lifestyle habits. Among them, the fast pace of work and time constraints are the main reasons for users to order takeaway. 42.7% of users choose takeaway to solve work meals, and 21.8% of users are unwilling to cook at home.

  measure

  The "no utensils required" option doesn’t work well

  Takeaway food delivery companies are very concerned about the problem of tableware waste. Recently, Meituan Dianping and Ele.me have started to trial the "no tableware" service, which is to add the "no tableware" option on the APP order page, where the tableware refers to disposable chopsticks. It is understood that Meituan Takeaway launched the "Qingshan Plan" this year, establishing the post of chief environmental protection officer to encourage customer engagement in "bring your own tableware" activities and reduce the use of disposable tableware such as chopsticks and napkins. At the same time, for catering companies that promise to use "environmentally friendly lunch box packaging", light up the environmental protection logo and add screening items. Consumers can screen with one click and invite consumers and professional organizations to supervise catering companies that promise to use "environmentally friendly lunch box packaging".

  This year, Ele.me launched the "Blue Planet" program, adding a "no tableware" note option on the order confirmation page of the new version of the APP, and providing points rewards for users who choose "no tableware". The Ele.me points mall will open an environmental protection area for users to use points to claim desert public welfare forests and redeem environmentally friendly shopping bags. At present, Ele.me has reached preliminary cooperation intentions with well-known environmental protection organizations such as the Alxa SEE Foundation.

  But it is understood that the trial effect is not very satisfactory. Some merchants would rather spend time and effort on diners’ taste preferences for fear of making mistakes, such as less sugar, less oil, no cilantro, etc., but when it comes to the question of whether to put chopsticks, they are "rather trusting them than not trusting them". "What if the customer gives me a bad review? I have to send someone to deliver it again, and the labor cost has risen again."

  Some analysts believe that in dealing with the problem of takeaway waste, the takeaway platform can play a limited role. Only catering companies that provide takeaway services, manufacturers of disposable tableware, and consumers can assume corresponding responsibilities, and all parties can work together to improve the current environmental protection problems caused by takeaway lunch boxes.

  expert opinion

  Waste tableware should be recycled

  Zhou Lili, a senior engineer in the comprehensive business department of the China Plastics Processing Industry Association, pointed out that plastic products are a relatively contradictory product, which facilitates our lives, but also brings environmental protection problems. Zhou Lili suggested that the relevant departments formulate a rule on how to recycle these discarded catering utensils, how to regenerate them, and how to manage them well. "We also recommend centralized inspections in some key regions and setting up some recycling points. Of course, this cost should be based on the production enterprises, distributors, and the model of white polystyrene lunch boxes. This is a contribution to environmental protection. In addition, we still recommend using degradable materials as much as possible in the future when conditions are available."

  Meng Suhe, chairperson of the Chinese Society of Food Science and Technology, said that in terms of the safety and environmental protection of takeaway lunch boxes, catering platforms should actively formulate entry thresholds, guide catering enterprises to choose qualified, safe and environmentally friendly lunch box products, and eliminate catering enterprises that do not pay attention to environmental protection and safety. For lunch box manufacturers, Meng Suhe believes that due to the characteristics of Chinese cooking and consumption, it is necessary to actively produce lunch box products suitable for Chinese takeaway use, and ensure their environmental protection attributes and product quality.

  Shang Guiqin, director of the National Key Laboratory of Food Contact Materials (Changzhou), believes that food delivery companies can formulate industry standards for the fast food industry, unify the requirements of lunch box standards, select manufacturers and suppliers that can meet the standards, and make environmental protection choices from the perspective of social responsibility.

  Financial Observation

  Just by "advertising"

  It is difficult to solve the problem in the short term

  The pollution problem of fast food boxes has recently become a hot topic of public opinion. Experts say that the amount of plastic used in the United States far exceeds that of our country, but the public opinion in the United States is not hot about pollution. From a certain perspective, our citizens’ concern for environmental protection has made the fastest progress in the world.

  It is commendable that the two food delivery companies have taken the lead in environmental protection measures and found ways to remind users to appropriately reduce the use of disposable dining products. These efforts have not only reduced the pollution of disposable tableware in our country, but also made the corporate culture and corporate image of two responsible large enterprises.

  In the next ten years, the socialization, intensification, and industrialization of kitchens will see tremendous development, and the problem of disposable tableware pollution will also develop rapidly. There is no time to wait. If we only rely on the publicity of these enterprises, we will definitely not be able to solve such a huge social problem in the short term.

  According to Ele.me, although the "no tableware" option is designed on the APP, and some people do check this option often, many merchants still provide tableware for each takeaway. The reason is that it is very troublesome to selectively remove some tableware from the order, and the second is that if there is a mistake, the customer’s request for supplementary tableware will increase the cost. Also, in case the customer reneges, he dares not not to send supplementary tableware. So this environmental protection measure worth boasting has become a decoration.

  Therefore, to solve the problem of white waste, we must first rely on the consciousness of the people. How to quickly improve the awareness of the people’s environmental protection is the key to the problem. In fact, without the promotion of these companies, everyone who has the habit of ordering takeout frequently will definitely be able to express a lot of profound insights on environmental protection issues. But whether they are willing to do it by themselves, and whether they are willing to exchange their own little trouble for a greater improvement in the living environment of the whole country’s citizens is another question.
