For your better interactive reading experience, for you to see more content in time, click "attention", and we will update wonderful stories and share different historical moments for you every day!

On July 20th, 1973, it was a sad day for countless kungfu movie fans-a legendary kungfu superstar Bruce Lee suddenly died at the age of 33.

As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused an uproar from all walks of life in Hong Kong. Many Bruce Lee fans couldn’t believe how this invincible "world’s strongest man" died so young.

Some people even think that Bruce Lee is faking his own death to promote his upcoming new movie.

But as Ming Pao and other authoritative media reported this matter, fans realized that their idols had really left them forever.

For a while, speculation about why Bruce Lee died suddenly followed, and the police also launched an in-depth investigation into the cause of Bruce Lee’s death.

Later, it was revealed that Bruce Lee’s family and friends had concealed his real place of death, which made the truth of Bruce Lee’s death even more confusing.

So why did Bruce Lee, who was physically strong, suddenly die? Why did his family and friends hide something? Is there a hidden secret behind this?

Look at the big secret of Bruce Lee’s death!

One, is he killed?

The name Bruce Lee is known to everyone.

He combined the strengths of hundreds of Chinese martial arts with western boxing, taekwondo, karate and other fighting techniques to create his own Jeet Kune Do, which opened up a world in the United States.

At that time, many American fighting masters, such as boxing champion Ali and karate world champion Rolex, praised him.

He later entered the film circle and made many kung fu movies, all of which promoted Chinese martial arts, established a positive image for Chinese people and cracked down on foreign evil forces.

Especially in the movie Jingwumen, the role of Zhen Chen, he broke into the Japanese budokan by himself, defeated dozens of Japanese fighters and smashed the plaque of "The Sick Man of East Asia". This classic scene inspired the hearts of countless people.

At that time, Bruce Lee became the pride of all Chinese in the world, a kung fu master and a national hero in people’s hearts.

He is the spiritual pillar of the fans, and nothing can knock him down.

However, the shocking news of Bruce Lee’s death at the age of 33 is unacceptable to those who regard him as a "god". They don’t believe that this powerful Bruce Lee died like this, and there must be many conspiracies in it.

At that time, one of the most popular sayings was that Bruce Lee was assassinated.

Bruce Lee’s martial arts talent is extremely high, so he can combine the strengths of hundreds of martial arts to create Jeet Kune Do. But at the same time, like many young people, he is arrogant and likes to compete for victory, causing many enemies.

The first is the underworld.

If you have seen the TV series legend of bruce lee, you will know that when he was a child, his family was often harassed by the underworld.

If you like watching Hong Kong movies, you will know something. At that time, Hong Kong was in the most chaotic period, and it was a rampant era of collusion between the four major detectives represented by "Mayor" (prototype Lv Le) and the four families of the underworld represented by "Lame Hao".

Bruce Lee’s father, Li Haiquan, was a Cantonese opera actor, who was powerless at that time. In order to live a peaceful life, he naturally had to pay protection money to the underworld honestly.

(Li Haiquan and Bruce Lee)

Bruce Lee, who was young and frivolous, didn’t want to be bullied. He clashed with the underworld and finally had to leave his hometown for the United States.

Bruce Lee, who returned from fame, entered the film industry, but it was inevitable that he had to deal with the underworld.

Because underworld people often make trouble on the set and ask the crew for protection money, martial artists often carry weapons to fight with the underworld at any time.

So many people guess that Bruce Lee was assassinated because he offended the underworld.

But later, Chen Huimin, a veteran of the Hong Kong underworld organization "14K" and a kung fu movie actor and friend of Bruce Lee, revealed that Bruce Lee was very influential in Hong Kong at that time, and no one dared to provoke him, so there was no possibility of triad assassination.

If it’s not the underworld, could it be a martial arts colleague in Bruce Lee?

In fact, every boxing has a sect, and there is a deep rift between the sects. It is usually not allowed to worship other masters to learn Kung Fu after worshipping this master.

(Chen Huimin on Bruce Lee)

But Bruce Lee has more than one master, Ip Man. Besides Wing Chun, he also learned 26 kinds of fighting techniques from all over the world, such as western boxing, jujitsu and karate, which created Jeet Kune Do, and also opened a martial arts school in the United States to accept foreign students as disciples.

Whether learning other kungfu without the master’s permission or teaching China Wushu to foreigners, it breaks the traditional rules.

As can be seen from legend of bruce lee and the movie Ip Man 4, at that time, both Chinese martial arts circles in the United States and Hong Kong martial arts circles were very dissatisfied with Bruce Lee’s practice.

Even the other disciples of Wing Chun Sect scoffed at him, and it was even rumored that Wing Chun Sect would take back its disciples, and the newcomers had to come in with Bruce Lee’s photo.

However, this is only a rumor. Ip Man did not blame Bruce Lee before his death. At the funeral after Bruce Lee’s death, many Wing Chun masters came to offer their condolences to him, and it was not hypocritical to look sad.

Moreover, there is no relevant evidence to prove who assassinated Bruce Lee, which is entirely the speculation of fans.

(Ip Man and Bruce Lee)

Later, the police also announced the results of Bruce Lee’s autopsy. There were no scars on his body, so it was impossible for him to die after being retaliated by gangsters or martial arts people.

However, many years after Bruce Lee’s death, a man jumped out and voluntarily admitted that he had murdered Bruce Lee.

Second, is it murder?

The conclusion that Bruce Lee was not killed by the police has never convinced many people, because they think that the murderer has a great background.

Sure enough, an American financial giant exposed himself as the murderer. His name was Hugh Bobby.

Things have to go back to the end of November 1958, when Bruce Lee, 18, took the ferry "President Cleveland" from Hong Kong to San Francisco, USA, to escape his enemy.

On the ship, Bruce Lee met Janet, the only daughter of Hugh Bobby.

Janet fell in love with Bruce Lee, a brave and confident Oriental, at first sight and pursued him, but Bruce Lee always regarded her as an ordinary friend.

(Bruce Lee is studying in the United States)

In order to be with Bruce Lee, Janet followed him all the way from San Francisco to Seattle Washington State University, but Bruce Lee was obsessed with martial arts and was very cold to her, so Janet had to return to her hometown of new york in tears.

Four years later, Janet came to Seattle again to rekindle her old relationship with Bruce Lee, but at that time, Bruce Lee was too busy opening a martial arts school and coping with challenges from all sides to talk to Janet at all.

When Janet came home again, she told her family that she was pregnant with his child, but Bruce Lee refused to have her.

Janet’s brother Michael is a famous American banker. He can’t accept the humiliation of his sister and family, so he went to Seattle to ask Bruce Lee for an explanation.

Unexpectedly, Bruce Lee denied it and said that he was engaged to a girl named Linda.

When Michael went back, he told his sister about it. Janet couldn’t accept the shock at all and was hospitalized with mental illness.

(Bruce Lee and Linda)

In 1964, Janet, who had given birth to a baby, was nursing at home. At this time, there was a world Wushu competition held in Los Angeles, USA on TV. It happened that one of the contestants in that competition was Bruce Lee.

Bruce Lee made his newly established Jeet Kune Do shine brilliantly in the competition, and shocked Janet and his father, Hugh Bobby.

Bruce Lee became a famous person in the world, but Janet strangled her child and cut her wrist before long.

Grieving, Hugh Bobby decided to take revenge, and Bruce Lee had to die.

With his father’s consent, Michael found the mafia to assassinate Bruce Lee.

However, these mafia gangs took the opportunity to extort money and asked Michael to help them "wash" 50 million dollars of black money. Michael was angered and planned to go to the police to turn himself in. As a result, he died in a "car accident" on his way to the police station.

Because Bruce Lee made Hugh Bobby lose two children, he vowed not to kill Bruce Lee.

At this time, Bruce Lee was filming on the set, but he fainted at the scene because of a brain tumor attack.

(Bruce Lee teaches boxing)

So, Hugh Bobby wanted to speed up Bruce Lee’s death, so he found a skilled cerebrovascular expert and gave Bruce Lee a lethal drug BMN, which caused his blood vessels to burst.

The plan went well, so Bruce Lee was killed unconsciously.

On the fourth day of Bruce Lee’s death, he told the story of his feud with Bruce Lee and the crime, and recorded it on tape.

In April 1993, after the death of Hugh Bobby, this tape reappeared in the light of day, and the truth of Bruce Lee’s death was revealed.

The book Wu Soul also recorded the matter in detail.

Is that really the case? Actually, there are many doubts.

(Bruce Lee talks with others)

Bruce Lee’s love affair has never been mentioned by his family, relatives and friends. Can Hugh Bobby’s one-sided story be taken seriously?

Bruce Lee has never participated in a formal martial arts competition, and only performed it on the show, so Hugh Bobby’s description is not true.

Bruce Lee’s body was dissected by the police, and BMN was not found in his stomach.

Bruce Lee has his own personal doctor, and Hugh Bobby is not his close friend. How can he poison him?

Therefore, this so-called truth is probably just a story that some booksellers want to make up, and its credibility is not high.

Third, Ding Pei and Bruce Lee

However, while everyone was speculating, someone found out that Bruce Lee’s family and friends had lied to the public.

Bruce Lee’s brother Li Zhongchen and Bruce Lee’s wife Linda both said that he died at home after supper at five o’clock in the afternoon, but the ambulance didn’t get a call until after ten o’clock at night.

Moreover, it was not Bruce Lee’s family who made the emergency call, but Zou Wenhuai, Bruce Lee’s good friend, and the place where the ambulance went was not Bruce Lee’s home, but Bihuage, the home of Shaw actress Ding Pei, 67 Beacon Hill Road, Kowloon Tong, Hong Kong.

So, Bruce Lee actually died in Ding Pei’s bed. What’s the relationship between Ding Pei and Bruce Lee?

(Ding Pei and Bruce Lee in the circle)

After Bruce Lee’s death, Ding Pei appeared in a film Bruce Lee and Me, in which Ding Pei played herself. In the film, she had an "underground lover" relationship with Bruce Lee.

Bruce Lee in the film seems to be a "sex maniac", who wants to have sex with Ding Pei all the time. In the end, she took an aphrodisiac at Ding Pei’s house, and they died suddenly when they wanted to be "rolled sheets".

This kind of film is totally defaming Bruce Lee’s image, and it was badly scolded by fans. Ding Pei later admitted that he was in a daze and took the film, and the plot in the film was mostly fiction.

However, it is an indisputable fact that Bruce Lee died in her home. Although they did not have the kind of relationship in the movie, they also had an unusual relationship.

Ding Pei met Bruce Lee under the introduction of Zou Wenhuai.

Zou Wenhuai is the boss of Jiahe Film Company, and also a filmmaker who has won the fame of Bruce Lee, Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan. At that time, Bruce Lee was working with him to make a film.

(Precious color photos of Zou Wenhuai and Bruce Lee)

Zou Wenhuai invited Ding Pei, a Shaw actress, to introduce them to Bruce Lee, intending to let them play the leading role in the following films. When they first met, Bruce Lee’s wife Linda was also present.

Ding Pei has accepted western culture since childhood, and his personality is bold and unrestrained. He is particularly congenial to Bruce Lee, who has strong self-confidence. They became good friends at first sight.

Bruce Lee often goes to Ding Pei’s home alone to express his feelings.

Bruce Lee, who has always been strong in front of everyone, will show his weak side when he sees Ding Pei. He admits that he has no freedom after becoming famous, and he should be careful what he says and does.

Being sought after by the audience all day, I feel like a monkey in the zoo and live very tired.

But every time Bruce Lee has something unhappy, he will feel much better when he sees Ding Pei. He will tell her about his film creation experience and share his favorite songs with her.

Bruce Lee gave her a tape, which Ding Pei still keeps.

(Ding Pei and Bruce Lee)

Ding Pei later admitted in an interview that Bruce Lee once confessed to her that she liked her very much, and Ding Pei also bluntly said that she loved this wonderful man deeply, but felt that she was not worthy of him.

The two have always maintained a superficial relationship as bosom friends.

The reason why she made a film that denigrated Bruce Lee was totally a moment of confusion. Bruce Lee’s death in her own home gave her a heavy blow.

That day, Zou Wenhuai and Bruce Lee were talking about the script of the movie "The Game of Death" in Ding Pei’s home. Bruce Lee suddenly had a headache, so he took some medicine and lay down in Ding Pei’s bedroom.

Zou Wenhuai made an appointment with "007" george lazenby at the Japanese Hotel to discuss the cooperation with Bruce Lee, so he left first and let Bruce Lee go to find him with Ding Pei after he woke up.

Not long after, Zou Wenhuai called to urge, and Ding Pei went to the bedroom to wake Bruce Lee up but didn’t wake up.

Zou Wenhuai immediately rushed over when he learned about it. No matter what he called, Bruce Lee didn’t respond.

Two people just know this event is not good, Ding Pei hurriedly to his personal doctor Zhu Bohuai for its treatment, Zhu Bohuai after inspection and treatment, shook his head, let them make emergency calls.

(Bruce Lee’s funeral)

That night, Bruce Lee died after being rescued in the hospital.

Zou Wenhuai was afraid that the news of Bruce Lee’s death in Ding Pei’s home would have a bad influence, so he asked his family to make up a lie.

And Ding Pei has long been scared out of her wits. She never imagined that the man she loved deeply died in his own bed.

With the death of Bruce Lee, all the blame was on Ding Pei.

4. Accident or suicide?

"Bruce Lee was killed by Ding Pei", and all of a sudden this statement is overwhelming.

Even some extreme fans in Bruce Lee threatened to kill Ding Pei and avenge Bruce Lee.

It is not groundless to say that Ding Pei killed Bruce Lee.

Zhu Bohuai, a personal doctor in Ding Pei, said that after Bruce Lee had a headache, Ding Pei gave her a painkiller called Equagesic, which is much stronger than aspirin and will have a bad effect on those who are sensitive to drugs.

(Du Huidong)

Du Huidong, a friend of Bruce Lee who is also a Hong Kong filmmaker, broke the news that Bruce Lee was educated in the United States and learned how Americans can build muscles through drugs.

Bruce Lee is full of muscles, and his body fat is only 3%. In order to maintain his muscles and strength, he will take nearly 100 tablets of various vitamins, muscle enhancers and quick-acting nutrients in addition to at least 8 hours of physical training every day.

Because of taking too many drugs, the internal tissues of the body may be confused, so after eating "Equagesic", it caused drug allergy and caused death.

In other words, Ding Pei may have inadvertently killed Bruce Lee.

However, this statement is only Du Huidong’s subjective idea, because whether these drugs and "Equagesic" really cause allergies has not been an accurate research result until now, and it cannot be used as an assertion.

However, the statement that drug allergy caused death is the most recognized by the government.

("Bruce Lee and Me" stills)

Others blame Ding Pei for not calling the emergency number in time, and there is a hospital next to her home, so why should she go further and further to send him to the "Elizabeth" hospital, which delayed the best rescue time in Bruce Lee.

In the face of such accusations, Ding Pei is also very wronged, because she and Bruce Lee were just ordinary friends at that time, and Zou Wenhuai was the boss of Bruce Lee. He also called Bruce Lee’s family, so where can he be the outsider’s boss?

Besides, I was scared by this unexpected situation, but I had to bear all the blame.

However, the audience did not buy her statement, and they continued to criticize her and even threatened her death.

In the end, Ding Pei couldn’t bear the pressure of audience abuse and the trauma of Bruce Lee’s death. In 1982, he quit the show business and faded out of the world’s sight.

At this time, someone put forward a new idea. Could Bruce Lee have committed suicide?

Before Bruce Lee’s death, the movie being discussed with Ding Pei was The Game of Death, which was written, directed and acted by Bruce Lee. Is there any other meaning in such a title?

(Death Game Stills)

In the movie, Bruce Lee will reach the top of the "death tower" and open the treasure chest.

There are no gold, silver and jewels in the box, but only a note that says, "Life is a process of waiting for death."

Coincidentally, Bruce Lee’s favorite song before his death was When I Die.

In addition, the forensic doctor found a small amount of marijuana in Bruce Lee’s body. Could it be that smoking marijuana made him depressed and had the idea of suicide?

But this statement was also denied by Zou Wenhuai and Ding Pei, because at that time, Bruce Lee had just finished filming enter the dragon in Hollywood, and he was very attentive in directing the filming and martial arts movements on the set.

Then he wrote "The Game of Death" with great energy, and there was no sign that he wanted to commit suicide.

(enter the dragon)

All sorts of reasons are wrong, so how did Bruce Lee die?

Finally, Ding Pei, who had been silent for many years, told us the answer.

V. Revealing the mystery

Many years later, when Ding Pei, who had healed her inner trauma, recalled Bruce Lee’s death again, her answer was: Naturally.

That is to say, Bruce Lee will suddenly die, which is a warning.

Ding Pei said that Bruce Lee was actually in poor health and had a serious illness when he was a child, so his nickname was "Xiaofeng". Later, he learned martial arts to keep fit and changed his name to "Xiaolong".

Perhaps because of this, Bruce Lee is very hard on his body.

In order to ensure a good figure and show the best state in front of the audience, Bruce Lee took too many drugs, which are three-thirds toxic. No matter how powerful the tonic is, it will have an impact on his health.

And his diet is different from ordinary people.

(Ding Pei is interviewed)

Bruce Lee specially bought raw beef flown by air from the United States, then put it into the juicer, then poured in milk and seven eggs, stirred it evenly and drank it directly in one gulp.

She also revealed a very extreme training method in Bruce Lee-electric shock training.

It is to use the high-voltage electric muscle vibrator invented in Japan to connect the wires above to the body and vibrate the muscles quickly.

This method takes ten minutes every day, which is equivalent to ten hours of training, so as to get twice the result with half the effort.

At that time, Yuan Wah, who was body double for Bruce Lee, was startled by him. He bluntly said that he didn’t dare to try, and he didn’t know how much current he needed.

After Bruce Lee’s death, this machine was also banned in Japan.

With the help of drugs, diet and electricity, Bruce Lee’s already unhealthy body has reached the limit, but he still insists on doing strenuous exercise such as skipping rope and running every day.

(Interview with Yuan Wah)

Bruce Lee is a "god" in the movie, but in reality he is also a human being, so it is impossible for the body to bear it if it goes on like this.

Under this kind of high-intensity exercise, Bruce Lee’s figure is almost perfect, and every part of his body is muscle, but it is not healthy.

You know, fat is a very important substance to the human body. The normal body fat rate of men is 6%~14%, while that of Bruce Lee is only 3%.

Two months before Bruce Lee died, he fainted in the bathroom of the studio while filming enter the dragon.

Fortunately, the staff found that he was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment in time, which saved his life.

Bruce Lee, who had just "walked from the jaws of death", thought she was all right, except that she had a small brain tumor and was clamoring to be discharged from the hospital to continue filming.

Ding Pei didn’t know about it, but he heard about it later from Zou Wenhuai and Linda.

Chen Huimin, a friend of Bruce Lee mentioned earlier, also confirmed this. He said that Bruce Lee had fainted more than once, and he often had convulsions suddenly, lying on the ground and convulsing all over.

(Bruce Lee’s muscles)

As for this reason, in recent years, Spanish experts have shown that it was Bruce Lee who drank a lot of water and fruit juice for a long time, which disturbed the normal water balance in the body, which led to rapid brain swelling and coma, and even death.

Drinking too much water and juice is naturally because he does too much exercise.

In a word, Bruce Lee’s death was caused by his long-term use of various unscientific exercise methods, which caused too much harm to his body.

Although Bruce Lee did make a lot of efforts to win glory for the Chinese, he is not a god, and as an ordinary person, he should do what he can.

We must also adopt scientific methods in the process of exercising at ordinary times, and it is the most important thing to ensure our own health.

Imposing tariffs on electric vehicles in China harms the fundamental interests of Europe.

On October 4th, the European Commission announced that the proposal to impose tariffs on electric vehicles imported from China has won the necessary support from member states. The proposal claims that China’s cheap electric vehicles "flood" the European market and pose a threat to the European electric vehicle industry. According to relevant EU rules, the proposal will only be shelved if the population of the country opposing the proposal exceeds 65% of the EU population. Although the European side expressed its sincerity to resolve this trade dispute through negotiations, the adoption of this proposal undoubtedly pushed the economic and trade relations between China and Europe to a dangerous position.

A spokesman for China’s Ministry of Commerce said on the 12th that China’s attitude and sincerity in seeking a solution through dialogue and consultation have not changed, and it has formally invited the European side to send a technical team to China as soon as possible to continue the next stage of face-to-face consultation. It is hoped that the European side can move in the same direction as China, arrange to come to China as soon as possible, accelerate the consultation with a constructive attitude, and strive to reach a proper solution at an early date.

The EU insists that the so-called "overcapacity" and "government subsidies" give China’s electric vehicle industry an unfair competitive advantage in international trade, which lacks the most basic international economic and trade knowledge. As far as the general rules of international economy and trade are concerned, there is no inevitable connection between the production capacity and foreign trade in the economic sense. In social production, whether the production capacity meets the market expectation is always the result of dynamic game. As far as specific industries are concerned, there is no necessary connection between the competitive advantage of products and the capacity. How can the EU, which knows well the rules of world trade, not know this basic knowledge of international trade? In fact, there is indeed disagreement within the EU on this statement. Relevant reports point out that the global electric vehicle market will maintain strong growth in the next decade, and Europe’s own electric vehicle industry is far from meeting the needs of its internal market, and many electric vehicle parts still need to be imported. The so-called "overcapacity" is really a very unwise excuse.

Secondly, it is not a "new idea" to say that China’s electric vehicle industry is "subsidized by the government" to gain an unfair competitive advantage. The fundamental question is, does a moderate government support policy mean "unfair competition"? If this conclusion holds, then the dominant industries in almost all countries should be put on this hat, because from the dual dimensions of history and reality, the encouragement and support of the government is the common law for the development of emerging industries in modern countries. In fact, the government of China cancelled the subsidy policy for the purchase of new energy vehicles at the end of 2022, and the competitive advantage of China’s electric vehicle industry depends more on the independent innovation ability of enterprises. What Europe can’t talk about is that developed countries in Europe took a lot of subsidies to the electric vehicle industry in the early days. Germany’s subsidies to electric vehicles were among the best in the world, and it also provided various forms of financial support and tax relief for domestic car companies. Therefore, by attacking China’s "government subsidies" to cover up the backward technology of European domestic electric vehicle industry, it has completely exposed Europe’s inefficient social organization management ability and the principle of double standards in international trade.

Europe’s imposition of tariffs on China’s electric vehicles will not only protect its auto industry as it claims, but will further damage its international competitiveness. Imposing tariffs will first lead to an increase in the price of electric vehicles, which will directly affect the popularity of electric vehicles in Europe, and the shrinking demand side will lead to a decline in the vitality of the entire European automobile market. European automobile industry is likely to fall into a vicious circle of insufficient product innovation and weakened market demand. Secondly, European automakers are already facing the challenge of transformation. Adding tariffs will lead to the increase in the cost of imported auto parts, which will seriously hinder the cooperation between China and Europe in the field of high-end manufacturing technology, and the scale of China’s investment in Europe will also be greatly affected. This man-made supply chain crisis will eventually lead to the loss of technological innovation opportunities in Europe, and its industrial transformation and upgrading goals will also be doomed to fail.

More importantly, sacrificing the trade chain of China-EU electric vehicle industry will further aggravate the division within the EU. In this voting, the vast majority of EU member states are not in favor of solving the trade disputes between China and Europe in this field by imposing tariffs, while Spain, Germany, Hungary and other countries have clearly expressed their opposition. It remains to be seen whether this proposal will trigger a fundamental crisis of economic integration within the EU at a broader political level. However, there are very distinct fundamental differences within the European automobile industry. The European Automobile Manufacturers’ Federation appeals not to undermine the current bilateral cooperation between China and Europe and hinder the pace of the transformation of the European automobile industry. BMW, Mercedes-Benz and other large car companies are deeply aware of the importance of the China market to their global layout, and explicitly oppose this move that seriously threatens their interests in China. Technology and investment from China are very important to the green transformation of European automobile industry, which is the basic consensus of European automobile industry.

In essence, the EU’s protectionist policy of imposing tariffs is a typical self-restraint. Facing the development status of European automobile industry, only by actively participating in international competition and cooperation with an open attitude can we promote the flow of technology, capital and other production factors, ultimately promote the transformation and sustainable development of European automobile industry, and maintain and further expand its global competitiveness. As German Chancellor Angela Scholz said in an interview, "We hope to sell our cars in Europe, North America, Japan, China, Africa, South America … all over the world. But this means that we must also be willing to buy cars from other countries. " The European Union will not hesitate to impose tariffs to maintain the industrial development in this region. This economic policy that harms others and does not benefit itself will fundamentally stifle the development prospects of its automobile industry in the next few decades.

Extremely dissolved in place： a farce of building a car by Baidu

When Gao He fell down in the first half of the year, he felt very tragic, but at the end of the year, it was more and more like a farce, which made people angry. But this is the winter of 2024, and it will obviously not be the last company that has not passed this year.

Edit | Rain Come

At the end of 2024, there is a retro flavor, and the word "year-end" is apt to many car makers.

Half a month after the disappearance of the Internet, Zhang Yong confirmed that he had been transferred from CEO of Nezha Automobile as a consultant. Li Bin answered 203 questions at a communication meeting in one breath, diligently and seriously, but still could not get rid of being questioned. Of course, the most difficult thing was Xia Yiping, CEO of Jiyue Automobile.

On December 11th, when Xia Yiping announced that the company had entered the entrepreneurial 2.0 era through a five-minute video conference, employees in various departments of the company didn’t immediately understand that this statement was actually a euphemism for "dissolution in place".

T Jun was still writing a plan when she understood that Xia Yiping said that the new stage of entrepreneurship meant that wages would be stopped and social security payments would be stopped. When she found that the video of the ultra-Vietnamese anchor changing from selling cars to live rights protection was all over the network, she received HR’s alternative plan: either take the initiative to leave her job and compensate N+1, and the payment time is uncertain, or leave her job without pay, not only without salary, but also without social security.

And the girl behind her station has cried, and she is pregnant and about to give birth.

The sudden collapse of a 5,000-person company

The employees of Extreme Vietnam are mainly distributed in Shanghai, Beijing and Wuhan, and the earliest time for Beijing employees to pay social security is December 13th. Extreme Vietnam Auto Grab announced its dissolution on December 11th because the cash in its account has been frozen, and there are rumors that there is no full cash in its account.

Such a sudden "dissolution" of a company with more than 5,000 employees did not give any warning or even a time window for the local government to understand the cause of the incident. Since 2014, in the tide of new car-building involving more than 200 entrepreneurial teams, the fate of Ji Yue is the most bizarre, and it can even be described as timid and sad.

This is not a retreat, let alone a business failure, but a chaotic, disorganized and irresponsible breakup.

This collapse not only hurt the owners and employees of the ultra-Vietnamese car, but also caused another collapse of Baidu’s investment in building cars, and cast a shadow over the reputation of all new brands.

For Baidu and Geely’s two major shareholders to withdraw their capital at the same time, the insiders of Extreme Vietnam said that it originated from Baidu’s sending a financial team into Extreme Vietnam in October 2024 to conduct due diligence to prepare for the original follow-up investment of 3 billion yuan.

However, this survey completely extinguished the idea of Baidu’s follow-up investment.

Caixin.com quoted Baidu insiders as saying:"As a result, it was found that there was a pool of bad debts with a financial hole of up to 7 billion, and it was decided not to continue to invest. 」

However, there is no official response to Geely, which is responsible for providing the platform and technology for building cars. The extreme statement circulating is that Geely has not received a fee since the first model was listed on the market.

However, according to internal feedback, Geely is open to the follow-up cooperation with Baidu, settles the necessary funds and continues to undertake the responsibility of OEM.

But Baidu doesn’t want to continue.

During the 48 hours when Xia Yiping faced angry employees and suppliers’ representatives alone, there were no shareholders’ representatives from Baidu and Geely, and rumors that Baidu might sue Xia Yiping and his management team have been raging.

In a video of a communication meeting held by employees of Chaoyue at 2 pm on December 12, Xia Yiping responded to the rumors of accounting chaos and internal corruption spread on the Internet: "The company’s governance is very good, and the shareholders’ representatives have audited the company every month, and they have just conducted a comprehensive audit of the company, which was completed by the shareholders’ representatives of Baidu. The company’s financial controller is also from Baidu, and shareholders have been involved for a long time, so don’t doubt that we.The comprehensive audit of the whole company has been completed without any problems.」

Liu Jining, the chief financial officer from Baidu mentioned by Xia Yiping, was said to have lost contact on December 2, and went to Singapore alone, and it was reported that he had taken away the company’s account books.

Today, 21st century business herald quoted an insider’s information as saying that Extreme Vietnam "internally uses the third-party enterprise financial management system-SAP (SAP) system, and any senior person in the company can get the company’s account books when entering the system. Since the establishment of the company, Ernst & Young, the auditor of Baidu, has audited the company in strict accordance with the standards of overseas listing. There is no such thing as anyone running away with books. 」

However, the insiders gave feedback to Zhijia. Only a few people, such as Xia Yiping and Liu Jining, knew the company’s financial situation.

Regarding the sudden shutdown of the company on December 11th without warning, Xia Yiping said, "I got the relevant resolutions from the board of directors and made the actions yesterday (December 11th), which were decided by following the legal process. I personally can’t decide this matter. I am just a minority shareholder, and 80% of the voting rights of this company are in Baidu. I just have the decision-making power in business. 」

This statement was considered by the employees of Extreme Vietnam that between Xia Yiping and Baidu, the two sides have been in a state of mutual dumping.

W Jun told Zhijia. com, "I began to believe that the online statement was that a few days ago, a disgruntled shareholder representative threw a cup at Xia Yiping and scratched his face. 」

On December 2nd, Xia Yiping released a short video in Tik Tok, in which his right cheek was injured. He laughed and said that he was bruised by riding a bicycle and was rumored to be beaten by employees: "Next time, you should show me boxing." 」

Ten days later, Xia Yiping, whose face was still scarred, was always surrounded by employees in the company, and was overwhelmed by the overwhelming shouts of "Give us the deposit to pay social security" and "Leave your ID card and passport".

As for Xia Yiping’s appearance in the office the next day after he announced the dissolution of the company in disguise on December 11th, an employee who has also been stationed in the company for more than 24 hours said, "His coming back is naive, silly and lovely. It can be understood as his kindness. 」

Xia Yiping, who returned to the company, kept the rhythm of communication every two hours yesterday. He was followed by employee representatives and supplier representatives. A supplier arrived in Shanghai from Wuhu, Anhui at four o’clock this morning, and he owed him as much as 100 million yuan.

▲ List of demands made by employees of Extreme Vietnam.

However, the stop and swing of the Extreme Yue is triggering a series of chain reactions. The intelligent driving function ASD of the sold models is disabled, only the lane keeping function is available, and the key function of the mobile phone is also advised to be used with caution. On the morning of December 13th, representatives of car owners have gone to the headquarters of the Extreme Yue Shanghai Company.

A belated shareholder statement

At 17 o’clock on the afternoon of December 13th, 48 hours after the suspension of the company, Baidu and Geely, two major shareholders of the company, issued a joint statement saying that they would solve the social security payment of employees and the aftermath of employees who left the company as soon as possible. Maintain the normal use, after-sales and maintenance of users’ vehicles; And promote the reasonable and legal settlement of other matters.

This statement is a comfort to all parties, but it also indicates that the country has entered the countdown of closing the door for liquidation.

In this statement, it is specifically mentioned: "Jiyue automobile products are manufactured by Geely factory and authorized to operate exclusively by Jidu.」

This sentence shows the bitterness and helplessness of Jiyue Model: the trademark ownership of Jiyue Automobile belongs to Geely Group. After Jidu Automobile failed to obtain the production and sales qualifications, Geely Group temporarily authorized Jidu Automobile to save the scene, and finally formed the exclusive agency status of Jidu Automobile.

This paper statement completely presents Baidu’s free posture as a pure investor in the company of Jiyue Automobile.

Strictly speaking, Extreme Yue Automobile is not the first car-making project led by Baidu. In 2013, Baidu followed Google and began to lay out autonomous driving. On March 1, 2017, Baidu integrated related businesses and resources to establish Intelligent Driving Group (abbreviated as IDG). In the same year, Baidu released the "Apollo Plan" at the Shanghai Auto Show and opened the autopilot platform Apollo.Also in this year, Baidu repeatedly increased Weimar’s B, C and D rounds of financing, becoming its largest external shareholder.

Both Baidu and Tencent were early major investors in Weilai Automobile, but Baidu increased its investment in Weimar after discovering that it could not dominate Weilai’s investment.

The two sides also began to cooperate deeply in technology, especially in intelligent driving, and established the Weimar &Apollo Joint Technology R&D Center for Smart Cars to provide automatic driving solutions for Weimar production models.

At that time, there were rumors that Baidu had the possibility of holding Weimar. Every step forward in intelligent driving requires a lot of vehicle data, and also requires automobile manufacturers to open data interfaces to intelligent driving companies. Controlling a car company is of great benefit to intelligent driving research and development.

However, Weimar never got rid of Geely’s patent litigation from its founding to its final exit in a mess.

Freeman Shen, the founder of Weimar, assisted Li Shufu in the acquisition of Volvo Cars by Geely. However, when he left Geely to start Weimar Automobile, Shen Hui took away many talents from Geely in R&D, technology and quality control, which triggered a six-year dispute over Geely’s accusation of infringement of Weimar new energy vehicle chassis technology secrets.

The deep cooperation between Geely and Baidu began in July 2019. The two sides announced that starting from Geely Bo Yue PRO, Geely Automobile will be fully equipped with GKUI19 system integrating a small-scale in-vehicle interactive system.

On January 11, 2021, Baidu officiALLy announced that it would build a car. Geely was a strategic partner and became the first Internet giant in the BAT camp at that time. Li Yanhong put all his reputation on March 30, 2021. Lei Jun, who built a car all, started two months earlier.

At that time, Freeman Shen, the founder of Weimar Automobile, was also sitting in the audience. After a year of suffering from the COVID-19 epidemic, many new car-making forces suffered from sluggish sales and poor follow-up financing. Selling Weimar to Baidu has become one of the considerations of Weimar decision makers.

When Freeman Shen saw Li Shufu standing on the stage with Li Yanhong, he knew that his idea was impossible to realize.

On October 10, 2023, Weimar Automobile, whose IPO failed, filed for bankruptcy.

In June, 2024, after six years of long litigation, which cost more than 13 million yuan, Geely successfully defended its rights. In the second instance, the Supreme People’s Court applied twice the punitive damages judgment, and Weimar compensated Geely for its economic losses and reasonable expenses for defending its rights totaled about 640 million yuan.

In the interpretation of the outside world, one of the main reasons why Geely, which has held many pure electric brands, once again chose to cooperate with Baidu to build a car is to block the cooperation between Weimar and Baidu.

03.

There is no real founder’s extreme leap mode.

On March 2, 2021, Jidu Automobile was established. Baidu and Geely owned 55% and 45% of the shares respectively, and Xia Yiping became the CEO of the company.

Geely is responsible for manufacturing and exporting the vast platform of Geely’s own intellectual property rights. Baidu empowers automobile companies with core technologies such as artificial intelligence, Apollo autopilot, small-scale car, and Baidu map.

Xia Yiping was in the window of resignation after mobike, founded in Li Bin, was acquired by Meituan. There have been different opinions about whether he is a professional manager or an investor.

Xia Yiping called himself an early angel investor of Jidu Automobile yesterday, but his share was very small. After going through the B and C rounds of financing, Baidu has maintained 80% super voting rights in the joint venture company, which is the absolute leader of the company.

with regard toIn the third quarter of 2023, the new joint venture company, Jiyue Automobile, held 65% of Geely’s shares and 35% of Baidu’s shares. Behind it, Baidu failed to seek the qualification to build a car, so it could only borrow Geely’s qualification to build a car and the trademark "Jiyue". Geely and Baidu re-planned the stock ratio of the joint venture company to regulate the restrictions of the automobile industry policy, and thenThe ultra-yue automobile products are manufactured by Geely factory, and the exclusive operation mode is authorized to realize Baidu’s control over the car-making project.

Although Xia Yiping is the CEO of Jidu Automobile and Jiyue Automobile at the same time, his actual identity is not only the representative of Baidu in the joint venture company, but he can’t avoid the position that he is still a professional manager in essence:I only have the decision-making power in the specific operation of the company.

He has only one vote on the board of directors that can decide the fate of the company.

Xia Yiping’s first job crisis began in May this year. Since the first model of Extreme Yue Auto, Extreme Yue 01, went off the assembly line for pre-sale in September 2023, the monthly sales volume has been in the hundreds. The news that Baidu intends to replace Xia Yiping began to spread in the industry.

On August 29th, Jiyue held an end-to-end AI smart driving conference. In the media exchange session after the meeting, faced with the reporter’s question "What measures did Jiyue take to make sales exceed 1,000 units", Xia Yiping suddenly lost control of his emotions and shed tears. It was hard to suppress his sobs.

He said that thanks to the trust of shareholders of Geely and Baidu, the continuous live broadcast made users believe that Ji Yue was still alive and kicking, and Ji Yue walked out of the ICU.

After Lei Jun released SU7, there appeared a round of follow-up phenomenon in China automobile industry, in which the person in charge of the automobile brand personally broadcast the goods and strived to be online celebrity.

After Xia Yiping made up his mind to be "Dong Yuhui of the automobile industry", he set up a post in charge of his IP. He started shooting videos in May this year and shot more than 80 videos in June.

Xia once said,The output can’t meet the demand of the order, and it has encountered happy troubles.

What Xia Yiping didn’t disclose was that at the board meeting held in the middle of the month, Baidu executives didn’t know when the subsequent investment of 3 billion yuan would arrive.

Summer is still broadcast live day and night, regardless of hard work. A month ago, at the Guangzhou Auto Show, the third model, Robo X, was released.

Everything is going step by step.

Before the lockout, the sales volume released by Extreme Vietnam in November was 2,485, ranking 22nd in the list of new energy vehicles of Zhijia.com..

It can be considered that Ji Yue has been at the poker table.

In the normal golden September and silver 10, the company achieved the highest sales volume. Although it declined in November, it was still above 2,000 units, and the monthly sales volume exceeded the whole year of 2023.

From the outside world, including employees of the company, the performance of the company in the market is getting better at any level.

This once convinced the media that the news that CFO suddenly lost contact and laid off 40% employees was a rumor.

04.

Guest Li Yanhong

T Jun attributed Baidu’s abandonment of Jiyue Automobile to Baidu’s lack of strategic strength.

She followed Xia Yiping for many years, from mobike to Vietnam.

"Baidu, a company with an annual profit of 20 billion yuan, is unwilling to pay 3 billion yuan. (Investing 3 billion yuan) is basically a certain thing, and the company’s business has been promoted, but when the company really has no money on its account and hopes that 3 billion financing will arrive as soon as possible, Baidu suddenly stops. 」

The internal complaints about Baidu and Robin Li didn’t start today. In the past three years, Robin Li, as a shareholder, consumed his own traffic for the platform. Even most Baidu employees have never heard of this car brand invested by Baidu. This year, Yuejie organized a car sale in Baidu Park. "Baidu employees seem to be looking at a strange brand in front of us. 」

T Jun worked in Meituan for a short time after he was acquired by Meituan in mobike.

Wang Xing, the founder of Meituan, invested US$ 1.15 billion in LI. He is a major shareholder but not a controlling shareholder. However, in Mr. T’s impression, Wang Xing did not hesitate to recognize and admire the LI brand on any occasion. To his surprise, at one time, any employee who wanted to report to Wang Xing or report to the mezzanine basically changed his car to an ideal, because Wang Xing was talking about ideals every day.

In contrast, a surprising scene happened on September 10 this year.

This is the largest press conference since the establishment of Jiyue. In the VIP room at the 07 press conference site, Xia Yiping and Wang Yunpeng, vice president of Baidu Group and head of IDG, welcomed Li Bin, chairman of Weilai, Zeng Yuqun, chairman of Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited, and Li Yanhong himself as "seemingly masters".

At the beginning of the press conference, the group photo of Ber Ber and Zeng was once screened in the media group.

But to the media’s surprise, it was not Robin Li, a well-known Internet tycoon who had been under the stage for two hours, but Zeng Yuqun, the chairman of Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited, a battery supplier, who became the No.1 owner of the new car at the press conference.

When Zeng Yuqun gave a speech on the stage, saying that Rubin, like Li Yanhong, was the English name, Rubin under the stage still didn’t mean to get up and do his best as a landlord.

She said:"Li Yanhong became a guest at the company conference that he invested and led. 」

The reason why Li Yanhong didn’t get up to give a speech at the scene for two hours was "because Li Shufu, the chairman of Geely, who is also a shareholder, only appeared in the form of video, which made Li Yanhong feel unequal. Even though CEO Xia Yiping invited him many times, he still insisted on not giving a speech at the stage. 」

"He is like an emperor in the late Qing Dynasty, because foreign envoys don’t kneel down and don’t meet. 」

In fact, today’s resumption of trading stopped suddenly. Perhaps at that time, Baidu had made up its mind not to inject more capital, and Li Yanhong could not take the stage to express his position in an appropriate way.

Huawei, Baidu and Xiaomi announced their entry into new cars at almost the same time. The logic of Huawei and Baidu’s entry into cars is similar, creating opportunities for their huge investment in smart driving technology, and then attracting other brands to buy. When the sales volume of cars reaches a scale, their data can be fed back to the R&D team.

This year, the profit announced by Huawei BU is closely related to the sales of various models of HarmonyOS Zhixing.

Compared with Li Yanhong, both Yu Chengdong, a professional manager, and Lei Jun, an entrepreneur, made cars by ALL IN, which drained almost every traffic value from themselves.

It can be said that in the eyes of Yu Chengdong and Lei Jun, failure in building a car is not the same as ruin.

The same is true of Extreme Yue to Baidu, but it is nine Niu Yi hairs to Geely.

On the one hand, Geely is entering the strategic contraction stage of shutting down and turning around. After Li Shufu issued the Taizhou Declaration on September 20th, a series of integration measures of Geely were vigorous and vigorous. Geometry and LEVC were merged into Galaxy successively, and pickup truck brand radar was integrated into Geely Automobile Group to become a department, and extreme krypton and Lectra merged.

As for the smart cockpit and intelligent driving of Baidu valued by Geely, as early as July 4, 2022, the Xingji era of Geely Holding became the controlling shareholder of Meizu Technology.

Later, Xingji Meizu released the FlyMe Auto cockpit system with handcart interconnection, and at the same time invested in core engine technology to lay out intelligent driving.

Geely has no realistic need for further in-depth cooperation with Baidu. Under the guidance of the increasingly strong attitude of full-stack self-research by the OEM, Baidu has invested heavily in L2 and L4, but it is losing the opportunity to compete with Huawei and even Momenta.

The brief cooperation between Baidu and Lantu Automobile has been replaced by Huawei, and Robotaxi has expanded its cooperation in Wuhan, but the new generation of models has been delayed in mass production.

Baidu, which claims to be AII In AI, is said to have invested hundreds of billions of yuan in AI and smart driving. The more it is, the last terminal consumer product that Baidu AI mass production landed. The more it is alive, the more AI will be born.

But perhaps the investment of 3 billion yuan is also a heavy burden for Baidu today.

T Jun said that he finally believed that sentence, why Baidu stood in the air every time and missed the air.

Nearly 48 hours after his sudden death, the media have been making repeated offers, and employees of Extreme Vietnam also think that they have been kidnapped by Xia Yiping and Baidu, which is like entering a dead end.

Baidu, Xia Yiping, employees, car owners and suppliers are all losers for Baidu’s withdrawal in a huff.

Looking back at the extreme mode today, Xia Yiping, who is in the whirlpool, is not only a soul deliberately created by the extreme, but also a representative of Baidu’s management, and an object close to a professional manager who needs to be supervised and audited.

His distorted identity determines the extreme predicament.

On the occasion of a great leap, Li Zhenyu, one of the original founders of Baidu Apollo, has also left his job and joined a smart business.

In 2024, many companies founded by employees who left Baidu went public, such as Horizon founded by Yu Kai, Xiaoma Zhixing founded by Peng Jun and Lou Tiancheng, and so on.

Baidu is of course the Huangpu Military Academy that China is driving, but this formulation also means that Baidu itself has not walked out of the quagmire.

For the extreme collapse, Baidu ignored the point that the internet car-making enterprise, after all, is not a software company with light assets, and its logic of divestment and closure cannot be adopted in a one-size-fits-all manner.

Baidu, as the leading party, directly stopped investing in a manufacturing enterprise with more than 15,000 car owners, ignoring that automobile products need to be maintained, repaired and maintained for nearly ten years, and that smart cars need 24-hour service guarantee of cloud and car dealer software systems. It is doomed to face a new round of rights protection impact from car owners after appeasing its employees.

Baidu’s sudden withdrawal is not only an irresponsible and reckless move, but also greatly hurts China’s new car brand."Don’t buy products from new forces" is forming a label consensus.

On December 12, Yang Yueqing, the former engineering director of Gaohe Automobile Project, sent a video suggesting that the owner of the company should deal with it as soon as possible before its value response disappears so quickly. "Don’t have any illusions, its after-sales parts will be continuously supplied. 」

Although Baidu and Geely issued a statement on December 13th, claiming that they will carry out relevant maintenance and services for the vehicle models, the subsequent legal entanglement may be more chaotic with the employees.

At 8 o’clock last night, Xia Yiping responded to the Joint Statement issued by Baidu & Geely in the new round of rights protection negotiations. He himself said that he did not recognize it: "This is not a plan, and I don’t even think it is possible to make a statement. 」

In the early hours of midnight, Xia Yiping told employees that they had set up an emergency team specifically for employees’ compensation with Baidu and Geely, and calculated the compensation based on the list of all employees and the demands made yesterday. At the same time, shareholders and local governments also communicated with each other to promote the solution of the problem together.

As a new day approaches, employees and suppliers are still following him closely, and his desire to go back to the hotel to rest has failed.

"Today, it was said that people from management came to communicate, but we didn’t see it. An angry but very tired employee said, "My wife is going to lose her job, and her company is owed more than 50 million yuan. 」

Extreme Vietnam has not yet gone bankrupt and liquidated, and it is still a sustainable company. Will someone take over the offer later?

The Wuhan municipal government was once rumored to be one of the interested parties, which is related to the relatively pleasant cooperation between Baidu Apollo and the Wuhan municipal government. The venue of the ultra-Vietnam Wuhan is said to be used by the ultra-Vietnam free of charge by Wuhan, but who has the courage to make such a decision when it is becoming more and more like a joke?

Is this the end of the pole?

A geek in his twenties said to Zhijia. com, "I really like Jumbo 01. It’s a pity. 」

K Jun, an autobot who has been tracking the extreme Vietnam incident for two days, said, "When Gao He fell in the first half of the year, it felt tragic, but it was more and more like a farce, which made people angry. 」

But this is the winter of 2024, and it will obviously not be the last company that has not passed this year.

Enjoy the world S9 is a battle that Huawei can’t fail.

Cover |HarmonyOS zhixing

HarmonyOS Zhixing enjoys the world S9 and Huawei’s full-scene new product launch conference for almost an hour. Yu Chengdong finally took the stage slowly with the shouts of the audience, bringing the third brand new car of Huawei HarmonyOS Zhixing to enjoy the world S9. After losing in the intellectual world, enjoying the world has become the key to whether Huawei can gain a foothold in the high-end pure electricity market.

This year, Yu Chengdong stopped mentioning "far ahead". It is said that it was because of a ban inside Huawei. He denied it, but he never used these words again. In the audience under the stage, someone gave a sign saying "those four words".

Huawei conference screenshot

Yu Chengdong can really afford to be "far ahead". The first half of 2024 is the half year in which Huawei HarmonyOS Zhixing has made great strides. The M9 released at the end of last year was a great success. Since its mass delivery in April, it has been ranked first in monthly sales of cars with a price of more than 500,000 yuan, regardless of body and energy form. It can be regarded as a curve that helped LI complete the KPI of MEGA. At present, the M9 has delivered a total of 70,000 vehicles. At the beginning of this month, the 400,000-th mass production car was officially rolled off the assembly line.

In March, Cyrus’ share price once hit an all-time high of 106.66 yuan, and its market value surpassed that of LI to become the first new force to build cars. He Liyang, president of Celeste, said at the Huawei conference in April, thanks to the great Huawei.

This is not the first car company to praise Huawei so enthusiastically. Also at the Huawei conference in April this year, Yin Tongyue, chairman of Chery, also said that Huawei is a great enterprise and a model for them, and it is indispensable for China to build a good car.

However, the same statement did not bring the same sales volume to the intellectual S7 as the intellectual S7. If the sluggish sales of Zhijie S7 before April can be explained by the shortage of spare parts, after the production capacity resumed in April, the monthly sales of Zhijie S7 still stayed at more than 2,000 units, which can only be described as the cold market. Yu Chengdong had to admit before that the intellectual S7 didn’t sell well, and there was still a big gap in their marketing ability, and the intellectual brand had not been built.

At yesterday’s press conference, the Zhijie S7, which appeared on PPT with three SUVs in the world, was even more shabby. Several models in the world are marked with the sales volume of the covered screen or a large number, and only Zhijie S7 has the first net recommended value (NPS) of the brand.

Positioning the enjoyment S9, which is higher than the intellectual world and more expensive, is another attack of Huawei in the field of pure electric cars, and it is also a key battle that Huawei cannot fail. Some market voices think that the car market is not as good as SUV, and the pure electric car market is even worse, and they have doubts about whether Enjoy S9 can win the luxury pure electric car market. Huawei HarmonyOS Zhixing has not yet proved itself in the field of pure electricity.

Enjoy the world S9/ Tuyuan Weibo, Yu Chengdong

A comparable example is Weilai ET7. The starting price of this pure electric car is nearly 30,000 yuan more expensive than that of the enjoyment S9, and the sales volume in the past two months is about 1,000 units. Since its launch, ET7 has never really established the luxury car market dominated by BBA.

Enjoy the positioning of S9 as a C-class medium and large car, and Yu Chengdong hopes it can leapfrog the D-class luxury car market of Mercedes-Benz S-class, BMW 7 Series and Audi A8. At the press conference, he used the successfully-asked M9 as the platform S9, and the two 9-series models were "Double Nine Flagships, Meet at the Peak".

Restricted by the market performance of pure electric cars in the past, it may be difficult for Enjoying S9 to replicate the sales miracle of Asking M9. The starting price of Enjoy World S9 is 399,800 yuan, which is much lower than the pre-sale price of 450,000-550,000 previously disclosed. At the press conference, Huawei also hired two stars, Huang Xiaoming and Gao Ye, as "brand friends" for Enjoyment, and they talked about the advantages of Enjoyment S9 at the press conference.

It’s hard to say how much these two stars have driven the entrepreneurs aged 40-50 targeted by Enjoy World S9, and their publicity role may not be as good as that of Weibo CEO Wang Gaofei and 360 Chairman Zhou Hongyi who co-produced short videos with Yu Chengdong. In the past, Huawei has never hired a spokesperson for HarmonyOS Zhixing’s brands.

Tuyuan Yu Chengdong Weibo

However, the success of the industry is ahead, and car companies can no longer consider too much. BAIC Group, which cooperates with Huawei to enjoy the world, had poor sales of the polar fox brand in Hi mode before, with sales of only 30,000 vehicles last year. This year, with a lower price/performance ratio, Polar Fox finally achieved a delivery volume of over 8,000 vehicles for two consecutive months.

BAIC reached a smart car selection cooperation with Huawei last year. At the press conference, Zhang Jianyong, Chairman of BAIC Group, came to power after Yu Chengdong, and as usual, he emphasized a wave of determination to cooperate with Huawei, saying that they regarded the cooperation with Huawei as the company’s core strategy and the first priority strategy, and BAIC All In enjoyed S9.

In addition to enjoying the world, the first model of Zunjie, which Huawei cooperates with Jianghuai, is expected to be released in the first quarter of next year, and its positioning may be higher than that of Enjie.

Zhijie will also release a coupe R7 based on S7 this year, and plans to have an extended range version. Previously, there had been widespread discord between Chery and Huawei, and Yin Tongyue’s statement temporarily eliminated these disputes. But you can still see some differences from open channels.

An early user of Zhijie S7 posted a post on the social platform, and BAIC actively forwarded it on the social platform to follow up Huawei’s publicity before the release of the enjoyment, and Weibo was the top one. On the other hand, Chery, the user said, "As the owner of the intellectual world, I opened the official numbers of Chery Group and Chery New Energy. Yes, there is no such car. Weibo, who is not even willing to forward Zhijie cars. "

Zhang Jianyong’s speech on the stage may represent the attitude of car companies. He said, "BAIC and Huawei are worthy of the name, although Mr. Yu has a lot of friends." There was a lot of laughter under the stage.

Today (August 7th), the share price of Beiqi Blue Valley closed at 9.08 yuan, down slightly by 1.52%.

Create an extraordinary Jetta! Which version should I choose？

There are many choices of cars now, as we said today. Come and see it quickly.

Let’s look at the appearance of Jetta VS7 first. The front of Jetta VS7 gives people a very hard-core feeling and looks softer. Coupled with the headlights, you can see many interesting details from the inside. The car is equipped with LED daytime running lights, automatic opening and closing, delayed closing and so on. Coming to the side of the car, the body size of the car is 4624 mm * 1841 mm * 1624 mm. The car adopts domineering lines, and the side gives a very delicate feeling. With large-sized thick-walled tires, smooth lines run through the whole side of the car. Looking back, the rear of the car echoes the front of the car, and the taillights are very round and lovely. Coupled with the unique exhaust pipe, the shape is more round.

After getting into the car, the interior design of Jetta VS7 takes a simple route, and the overall recognition is very high. The car’s steering wheel shape is eye-catching, and it is equipped with functions such as manual steering wheel up and down+front and rear adjustment, and it feels good. Take a look at the central control. The car is decorated with a simple touch-control LCD central control screen, which makes the interior design quite layered, and the overall design of the central control is remarkable. Next, let Xiaobian introduce the dashboard and seats. The dashboard of this car presents a personalized design style and the design is more comfortable. The car uses leather seats, which are wide and thick, and the overall ride feels soft and comfortable.

Jetta VS7 is matched with an automatic manual transmission (AT) gearbox, with an acceleration time of 10.2s per 100 kilometers, which has good power performance and is completely OK for daily use.

Jetta VS7 is equipped with driving mode selection, remote control key, rear wiper, interior ambient light, engine start and stop, etc., which can be said to be quite satisfactory.

After reading the above introduction, let’s make a summary. I wonder if you are excited about this car introduced today?

Chengdu Auto Show, a harder iCAR 03T is coming.

On August 30th, the opening day of 2024 Chengdu Auto Show, Chery’s new energy brand iCAR brand launched a new car, ICAR 03T. The new car is available in two versions: two-wheel drive long-life version and four-wheel drive long-life version. The official guide prices are 139,800 yuan and 149,800 yuan respectively.

It is worth mentioning that the brand provides users with a subsidy of up to 25,000 yuan for car purchase, or a gift of 5,000 yuan for old users of Chery. In addition, it also includes the free installation service of the original charging pile to ensure worry-free use. Users will enjoy lifelong courtesy including the whole vehicle, the three-power system and free rescue. For users who choose the smart driving suit, the brand provides free use of the high-level smart driving function worth 20,000 yuan for life.

Of course, compared with these rights and interests, the iCAR 03T car itself is more important, and the product strength is quite solid. It not only inherits the excellent characteristics of "unexpected control" and "intelligent equal rights" of iCAR 03, but also tailors it for young players, creating a brand-new hard-core car experience with the original personalized scheme.

After in-depth analysis of users’ needs, iCAR 03T introduced a customized design strategy, and created a wide-body appearance with strong visual impact for users through bold side skirts, coherent front air intake and other design elements. The whole series comes standard with 19-inch wheels, which not only enriches the visual effect, but also improves the stability of the whole vehicle. The vehicle’s ground clearance can reach up to 225mm, which provides the driver with a wide field of vision comparable to that of a hard-core off-road vehicle, thus enabling iCAR 03T to achieve "tougher legal road driving".

In the interior, iCAR 03T still follows the "hard style" and uses a lot of horizontal and vertical lines and rectangular elements, which looks tough as a whole. It is worth noting that the whole iCAR 03T series comes standard with 8155 chips, and its card UI has undergone a brand-new upgrade design, and its interactive logic and graphic colors are more beautiful and comfortable. Compared with the leading products in the market, it is not inferior.

The intelligence of iCAR 03T is not only reflected in the cockpit design, but also its driving performance has been significantly improved. All models are equipped with L2++ advanced intelligent driving assistance system, which can easily control advanced intelligent driving functions such as high-speed navigation, urban memory driving and cross-floor memory parking.

In order to further improve the perception ability of vehicles in complex environments, iCAR 03T specially added three millimeter-wave radars and enabled eight ultrasonic radars, which combined with the original seven high-definition cameras to continuously optimize the recognition efficiency through fusion algorithm. This enables users to fully experience the convenience brought by intelligent driving while ensuring driving safety, and further practice the promise of "equal rights in science and technology".

With the listing of iCAR 03T, it officially forms the 03 family with iCAR 03, and the two cars work together for different car needs of young people. At this auto show, iCAR 03 also introduced a new color scheme of "Power Yellow" with more vitality, which further enhanced the visual perception of the whole vehicle.

In addition, at the auto show site, the iCAR brand also designated an area to show their co-creation ecology, linking brands that are deeply loved by young people, including Magic Cat Box and BUXUS, to provide users with the latest and youngest living surroundings covering off-road experience, camping equipment, daily commuting and lifestyle products.

ICAR 03T provides personalized options for young people, such as eco-schoolbags and luggage platforms. In the future, we will cooperate with refit manufacturers to let users participate in the creation. At the auto show, iCAR cooperated with "Buy a Car" to launch the "Buy a Car Coffee Entrepreneurship Edition" to meet the outdoor leisure and entrepreneurial needs of young people.

43 said:

With its "hard-core" design style and flexible handling performance, iCAR 03 has won the favor of many young consumers. Now, the more powerful 03T is obviously tailored for male consumers who pursue the ultimate hard-core experience. Of course, in addition to its design, 03T’s intelligent technology configuration and rich ecological co-creation functions can not be ignored.

Bo Huang： Truth and Challenge Behind High EQ

At the Liyuan Comedy Festival held in Qingdao, Bo Huang became the focus of public opinion because of a sudden incident. The star, known as "high emotional intelligence", did not respond enthusiastically as people expected in front of a helper, but seemed helpless and indifferent. This moment not only challenged his public image, but also triggered a wide-ranging discussion about the responsibility of stars and personal boundaries. So, how did Bo Huang get to today’s highland, and what unknown stories are hidden behind it?

Getting to know Bo Huang for the first time: from ordinary to excellent.

Bo Huang was born in Qingdao, Shandong Province in 1974. His father was a soldier and his mother was a literary and art worker. Having lived in a family with a strong artistic atmosphere since childhood, Bo Huang showed a keen interest in performing at an early age. Young, he did not stop because of the protection of the environment, but chose to work hard to improve himself.

He studied film and television performance in Qingdao University and became a student who loved life and art. However, as a young man who worked hard by himself, Bo Huang’s road in the entertainment industry was not smooth sailing. At first, he faced severe competition in the drama circle and the pressure of external evaluation.

The ups and downs of career and glory.

At the beginning of 2000, Bo Huang gradually accumulated a reputation in the circle by virtue of his outstanding performance in several small dramas. During this period, his hard work finally ushered in a turning point for him in 2007-starring in the movie Crazy Stone. This film not only made a box office success, but also made Bo Huang get more attention.

As a landmark work in China’s film history, Crazy Stone made Bo Huang enter a broader performing world. His performance amazed people, not only because of his acting skills, but also because he can easily control all kinds of roles, from funny to drama.

Subsequent works such as "A Man on a Embarrassed Road" and "A Happy Flower on the Road" all achieved great success. Bo Huang’s screen image gradually became rich and diverse, and he soon became a household name. At this time, Bo Huang has blurred the mark of high EQ in his career. He is good at properly handling all kinds of unexpected situations in public, which brings a comfortable and warm feeling to the audience.

Establishment of high emotional intelligence personnel

Bo Huang’s success lies not only in his acting talent, but also in his high emotional intelligence. Facing the complicated entertainment circle, he is good at establishing good relations with colleagues, media and fans. His humor and affinity make the public have a positive impression on him. When facing the media, Bo Huang never reveals negative emotions. Instead, he is always able to skillfully resolve the embarrassment and deal with difficult problems, and is known as "the affinity of the entertainment circle".

However, all this is not superficial scenery and relaxation. Under the glamorous appearance of star life, Bo Huang is also under great pressure. Every public appearance of him may become a hot topic, and every speech may lead to interpretation. This makes him have to maintain the image of high emotional intelligence from time to time between numerous expectations and psychological load, and balance the gap between personal true feelings and public expectations.

Challenge and Reflection: Behind the Qingdao Incident

At the comedy festival in Qingdao, Bo Huang’s indifferent performance at that moment made people once again examine his responsibilities and difficulties as a public figure. A man asked him for help at the scene, hoping to get a job. Although Bo Huang smiled, he didn’t give any practical help. This behavior caused differences in public opinion, and the voices of support and opposition gathered together.

Some people think that Bo Huang, as a star, should further respond to public expectations, while others accuse the man of trying to seek attention or out of an eye-catching mentality. For Bo Huang, this seems to be a difficult dilemma-whether it is the insistence on personal boundaries or the helplessness of public expectations.

Stars and people: true inner monologues

This incident not only challenged Bo Huang’s public image, but also showed us another side of the star’s life. The public’s expectations for them are often endless, but everyone has their own bottom line and fatigue. As Bo Huang mentioned in an interview in the past: "I am actually a very ordinary person, not much different from everyone." This simple expression implies his expectation and pursuit of his real life behind the glamour.

Summary: from high emotional intelligence to real enlightenment

Bo Huang’s tortuous road finally made him build a distinctive image in the public mind. His high EQ seems to be the definition of success in the hearts of the public, but judging from the recent Qingdao incident, in the face of the public’s words and the actual response to emotions, the commitment to star status is intertwined with the aspirations of ordinary people. His story makes us realize that stars are human beings, and they are also experiencing emotional fluctuations and the pressure of life behind the glamorous.

This incident may be a wake-up call. Whether a star or an ordinary person, how to deal with the relationship between himself and the expectations of the outside world is a topic worthy of deep thought. Bo Huang tells us through his own experience that in this complicated society, people are doing their best, and true feelings and frank communication will bring us closer together.

　　A new generation of language design focuses on hard-core appearance

　　As a special category, pickup trucks are mostly practical in appearance design, and fancy designs are basically hard to see on pickup trucks. At the same time, considering the practical scene, the design of this kind of car will be more tough, and with the bulky size of some full-size pickup trucks, you can feel a strong sense of oppression when you get close to it. The new generation of Ford F-150 Raptor can completely explain what is hard and what is oppressive in appearance.

　　Comfortable technology cockpit

　　The cockpit of the American pickup truck has always given people a very rough and simple impression. It seems that his users don’t care whether the cockpit is comfortable or not, and whether the workmanship is good or not, as long as it meets the functionality. However, the new generation of Ford F-150 Raptor seems to realize that functionality alone is not enough, and comfort and convenience cannot be ignored.

　　The layout of the new generation Ford F-150 Raptor is basically the same as that of the previous generation, but the difference is that it has become more detailed and has a stronger sense of technology. The interior is made of more advanced materials, such as leather steering wheel, front and rear rows of leather+fabric stitching seats. Even where plastic is needed, the new car has been upgraded in material and looks a lot more delicate.

　　High Strength Body+3.5L V6 EcoBoost?? Twin Turbocharged High Power Engine

　　Whether crossing or off-road, power is very important, especially desert driving, which requires long-term stable output. Whether there is a strong power reserve directly determines how much fun you can get. The new generation Ford F-150 Raptor is equipped with a re-adjusted 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost?? twin-turbocharged high-power engine, which has stronger low-speed torque performance. The maximum net output power rises to 311kW, which is about 40 horsepower higher than that of the previous generation, and the peak torque rises to 684 N m. Advanced twin-turbine technology and compression ratio of 10.5: 1, together with new high-power cooling fan, further improve cooling efficiency.

　　With strong power and strong skeleton, the comfortable shock absorption system is directly affected, and the new generation of Ford F-150 Raptor has also been upgraded. The new generation FOX? 3.1 Live Valve? shock absorber adopts advanced electronic control valve damping technology, and the damping coefficient can be adjusted in real time according to the state of the shock absorber. Larger diameter (3.1 inches) anodized shock absorber bucket, filled with brand-new exclusive design of low-friction shock absorber fluid, reducing internal friction and improving vehicle driving comfort; The electronically controlled valve is upgraded to provide damping performance of over 450kg. According to the data read by sensors from all parts of the vehicle, such as suspension height, each shock absorber can also adjust the damping coefficient up to 500 times per second to adapt to complex road conditions.

American pickup truck mainstay test drive new Ford F-150 Raptor

　　Seven driving modes can easily cope with various working conditions, including standard mode, anti-skid mode, trailer/heavy load mode, sports mode, cross-country mode, rock climbing mode and Baja mode. In Baja mode, the vehicle will automatically set the steering force of the steering wheel, the transfer case, the electronically controlled differential lock rear drive axle, the vehicle stability control system, the active exhaust system, the active damping system, the throttle response and the shift logic of the gearbox, and at the same time display the corresponding modes on the dashboard to meet different driving needs.

American pickup truck mainstay test drive new Ford F-150 Raptor

　　The new generation Ford F-150 Raptor provides a creeping cruise mode (with a single pedal function). When it is turned on, the vehicle will automatically distribute the required torque, and the crawling speed will be adjusted by SET+/-, which weakens the difficulty of off-road, especially when going down a steep slope or getting out of trouble, which is more delicate than manual operation. At the same time, it also provides 360 panoramic visual images, as well as four kinds of exhaust sound waves, three kinds of shock absorption working modes and four kinds of power steering modes.

　　Feel the fun of playing sand brought by American pickup trucks from low to high.

　　In order to let us better understand the new generation of Ford F-150 Raptor and desert driving skills, the coaching team specially arranged four-stage courses from entry to mastery. The first lesson is to get familiar with vehicles and understand simple desert driving skills.

American pickup truck mainstay test drive new Ford F-150 Raptor

　　When driving in the desert, the first choice is to have a correct sitting posture and a steering wheel holding gesture, and hold the steering wheel thumb with both hands on the outer ring, so that even if the vehicle is out of control, it will not hurt your fingers. The tire is deflated to a tire pressure of about 1.4Bar, which not only maintains sufficient contact with sand, but also prevents the danger of tire tripping when hitting the direction.

American pickup truck mainstay test drive new Ford F-150 Raptor

　　Baja mode is used in the whole driving process. In this mode, the vehicle will automatically adjust the engine response, steering wheel and shock absorber mode, and start the rear wheel differential lock, and the exhaust sound will become more violent. I had a better experience. We have to shut down ESP manually. The output of 3.5L V6 naturally aspirated engine is smoother and more delicate than that of turbocharged engine, and it is easy to find a proper throttle foot feel even if you are just getting started.

American pickup truck mainstay test drive new Ford F-150 Raptor
American pickup truck mainstay test drive new Ford F-150 Raptor

　　Starting and braking must be gentle, which is the first lesson of desert driving. When parking, both the front and the rear should always face the bottom of the slope, so as not to be trapped and tied up because of starting. In the first project, you can feel the smooth power output of the vehicle, and learning to use the sideslip and inertia of the vehicle to climb the hill will make you look more like an old driver.

American pickup truck mainstay test drive new Ford F-150 Raptor

　　The second subject is steep slope descent. After the driving vehicle rushes up from the bottom of the slope, it slowly descends into the bottom of the slope from an angle of about 40. This subject mainly trains the use of inertia to wash slopes and brakes. Although we are all afraid when facing the unknown, we must not slam on the brakes when rushing to the top of the slope, so it is difficult to start once the vehicle stops. When descending slowly, we can turn on the creep mode and set the speed to 10km/h or even lower. At this time, we just need to hold the steering wheel well and don’t let the car body tilt, so we can successfully complete the descending movement.

American pickup truck mainstay test drive new Ford F-150 Raptor
American pickup truck mainstay test drive new Ford F-150 Raptor

　　Of course, if you want to try autonomous operation, it’s no problem, but you must pay attention to straighten the body when going downhill, brake lightly and observe the descending speed. Too fast may lead to forward somersault of the vehicle. When you are familiar with the feeling of braking feet and have certain control ability over the vehicle, as long as you overcome your fear, there will be no problem.

　　What should I do if I have no power in the middle of the slope? I’ll tell you next. Although the new generation of Ford F-150 Raptor is full of power, it is inevitable that the sand is too soft when washing the slope, which leads to the failure of washing the slope. At this point, you only need to turn left or right, and continue to refuel, and the vehicle will turn around along the top of the slope and slide down to the bottom of the slope.

American pickup truck mainstay test drive new Ford F-150 Raptor

　　When doing this action, remember to ensure the power output of the vehicle at all times. When returning, don’t compete with the sand, and slowly move the front of the car down along the flow direction of the sand. Remember not to brake for fear, which will cause the vehicle to stop halfway up the slope or roll down.

American pickup truck mainstay test drive new Ford F-150 Raptor

　　"Hotpot boiling" is a skill that desert drivers like very much and must master in desert driving. It is very useful to deal with trapped deep pits. By slowly accelerating from the bottom of the pit, the vehicle will generate centrifugal force, so that the wheels can firmly grasp the ground, and the vehicle will slowly move upward at the bottom of the pit gradually.

American pickup truck mainstay test drive new Ford F-150 Raptor

　　Remember not to be too anxious when doing the action of "hotpot". Use the power of the vehicle to rush to the highest place, and use the inertia of downward dive to accelerate the vehicle. This action can help you get out of trouble and show off your skills, which will increase the pleasure of test drive in the desert.

American pickup truck mainstay test drive new Ford F-150 Raptor

　　The shock absorption performance of the new generation Ford F-150 Raptor in this test drive really surprised me, which changed my fear of the back seat of pickup truck. In the bumpy and big ups and downs scene, the back seat can still maintain good comfort. When crossing sand dunes or forming a cross-axis scene, the formation of long shock absorbers can also make four wheels land at the same time, which increases the stability of the vehicle.

American pickup truck mainstay test drive new Ford F-150 Raptor

　　Full text summary:After a day’s experience, I have a deeper understanding of the new generation of Ford F-150 Raptor, which is called "Desert Super Run". Strong power, solid skeleton and shock absorption, the new generation of Ford F-150 Raptor brought me a very exciting feeling in the desert experience. Compared with off-road skills, the new car has also made great improvements in intelligence and comfort. Can have such a performance, worthy of being favored by new and old players.
