Alibaba’s 17.7 billion yuan started Yintai’s commercial privatization, and it smashed "new retail"

[Observer Network Synthesis] Alibaba’s new retail layout will go to the next city! On January 10th, Yintai Commercial announced on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange that Yintai would be privatized. The joint offerors included Alibaba Investment, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alibaba Group, and the wholly-owned company of Shen Guojun, the founder of Yintai Commercial. The transaction amount reached 19.8 billion Hong Kong dollars (about 17.7 billion RMB), which was 42% higher than the last trading day before the suspension. According to the announcement, Alibaba will become the controlling shareholder of Yintai after privatization, and its shareholding ratio is expected to increase to about 74%.

Yintai Commercial Announcement on January 10th

This is the latest move of Alibaba to promote the transformation of "new retail" after Ali Zetai, a subsidiary of Ali Department, subscribed for Sanjiang Shopping as a strategic investor at the end of last year, and Yiguo Fresh of Ali Department took over all the shares of Lianhua Supermarket held by Yonghui Supermarket.

Stimulated by this news, Yintai Commercial once rose by 37.98% after its recent opening. On the same day, retail stocks also rose collectively, with the overall increase of the sector exceeding 1%.

Massive privatization

According to the announcement, the joint offeror will pay HK$ 10.00 per planned share, which is about 53.59% higher than the average closing price of the last 60 trading days, and about 42.25% higher than the closing price of HK$ 7.03 per share on the last trading day before the suspension on December 28, 2016.

At present, through the initial investment in July 2014 and the conversion of convertible bonds in June 2016, Alibaba holds about 28% interest in Yintai. butAfter privatization, Alibaba will become the controlling shareholder of Yintai, and its shareholding ratio is expected to increase to about 74%..

The announcement also mentioned that,The maximum cash amount required to complete the proposed transaction is about 19.8 billion Hong Kong dollars (about 17.7 billion yuan), and the co-sponsors are financing the transaction with internal cash resources or external debt..

The cooperation between Alibaba and Yintai can be traced back to May 2013. Alibaba and Yintai Group jointly built the "China Intelligent Logistics Backbone Network" project, namely the rookie network. Yintai Group invested 1.6 billion yuan, accounting for 32% of the shares, becoming the second largest shareholder.

On October 17th of the same year, Alibaba Group announced that it had reached a strategic cooperation with Yintai to explore the integration of online and offline (O2O). In June 2016, Yintai Commercial Group announced that it had accepted Alibaba’s share swap notice. After the completion of the share swap, Alibaba’s total shareholding in Yintai will reach 27.90%, officially becoming the largest shareholder of Yintai Commercial.

Since it is already the largest shareholder, why should Alibaba continue to privatize Yintai?

Zhang Yong, CEO of Alibaba Group, said: "The total scale of the retail industry in China has reached 4.5 trillion US dollars, and it is growing at an annual rate of 10.7%. Alibaba Group is working with offline retailers to reconstruct the traditional format, innovate the user consumption experience, and embrace the long-term development opportunities brought by new retail with practical actions. "

Zhang Yong believes that there is no distinction between entity and virtual economy, only the difference between the old and the new. If you ignore opportunities, you will inevitably be marginalized or even eliminated. If we can integrate the power of mobile Internet, real-time user data and technology to improve operational efficiency, physical retail enterprises can create brand-new value for consumers.

It is reported that Yintai Commercial is a leading department store chain in China, operating 29 department stores and 17 shopping centers, mainly located in first-and second-tier cities in China. Yintai’s development in Zhejiang Province, where Alibaba Group is headquartered, is particularly strong. The proposed transaction can only be implemented after the customary completion conditions are reached, including the approval of Yintai’s independent shareholders and the Grand Court of Cayman Islands.

Layout "new retail"

More than two years ago, e-commerce strongly impacted physical retail, and Yintai chose to cooperate with Alibaba. In March 2014, Alibaba invested HK$ 5.3 billion in Yintai to become the second largest shareholder. Since then, Shen Guojun, the founder of Yintai Commercial, has continuously transferred shares, eventually making Alibaba the single largest shareholder of Yintai Commercial. On May 19th, 2015, Zhang Yong, CEO of Alibaba, succeeded Shen Guojun as the chairman of Yintai Commercial Board.

Yintai founders Shen Guojun (left) and Ma Yun (right)

Today, the development of e-commerce has ushered in a "ceiling". Ma Yun put forward the concept of "new retail" in October 2016, emphasizing online and offline and logistics integration. Since then, Alibaba has been constantly moving online and offline. In November 2016, Alibaba acquired a 32% stake in Sanjiang Shopping through its subsidiary for 2.15 billion yuan, and realized the layout of the supermarket online. The privatization of Yintai Commerce this time is intended to further strengthen integration and cooperation.

Interior environment becomes a hot spot of automobile quality complaints. Experts call for the introduction of mandatory standards for interior pollution as soon as possible.

  According to the latest data of "Analysis Report on Indoor Air Quality Problems" released by Chezhi. com, from 2010 to August 2019, consumers complained about the odor inside the car for 9,300 times. From January to August this year alone, the number of related complaints reached 1,646 times. It is predicted that the number of complaints in the whole year will reach a record high.

  "The lack of relevant control standards in the interior environment, lack of legal basis and lack of supervision have led to increasing air quality problems in the car." Become the consensus of experts. Recently, at the "Third March 15th Automobile Consumption Forum and Symposium on Promoting the Issuance of Compulsory Standards for Indoor Pollution" sponsored by china law society Consumer Law Research Association and co-organized by Chezhi. com, participants in drafting relevant standards for indoor environment, environmental experts, legal professionals, scholars and senior experts in the automobile industry had in-depth discussions on the existing problems of indoor air quality, the reasons for the delay in the introduction of compulsory standards, and how consumers should safeguard their rights and interests.

  The smell inside the car has become one of the hot issues of automobile quality.

  According to a folk statistic in 2017, there are more than 4,600 models on sale in China automobile market. Combined with the faster and faster iteration speed of models, there will be more models on sale at present. According to the data released by the Ministry of Public Security, as of June this year, the number of cars in China has reached 250 million.

  With the rapid improvement of modernization, people’s dependence on vehicles has become increasingly obvious. In addition to homes and workplaces, vehicles have become one of the main places where human beings stay. On the other hand, in order to meet consumers’ requirements for automobile comfort, manufacturers constantly improve the structural design of automobile interiors, and use more new technologies, new materials and new processes, especially the extensive application of nonmetallic materials and adhesives, which leads to the accumulation of pollutants in automobiles and harms human health. With the continuous improvement of the public’s environmental awareness and self-protection awareness, the public has higher expectations and stricter requirements for the air quality in the car, which is closely related to human health. In recent years, the environmental problems in the car have attracted much attention.

  The reporter noted that the car quality network data shows that the odor inside the car has become one of the top ten car quality hot issues from 2010 to August this year. Zhang Yue, director of the Automotive Quality Network Research Institute, even pointed out that consumers’ concern about the interior environment will reach its peak this year, which will be followed by advocating the elimination of pollution hazards to automobile enterprises with a "death-like attitude".

  "vehicle air pollution’s problem, a recommended standard before, but there is no mandatory standard, so what’s the problem? After consumers encounter problems, there is a basis for unresolved disputes, and the recommendation standard can not be implemented. " According to Guangsheng Song, director of the National Indoor Interior Environment and Environmental Protection Product Quality Supervision and Inspection Center, although some people in the industry paid attention to the indoor air quality in 2003, with the blowout development of the automobile market in previous years, the purpose of formulating the relevant standards for indoor air quality has changed from the initial prevention of shoddy automobile products to the stage of meeting consumers’ demands for the safe driving environment of automobile products.

  "We call for and look forward to the introduction of relevant mandatory national standards as soon as possible to effectively strengthen consumer protection." Chen Jian, director of the legal and theoretical research department of the China Consumers Association, said that the right to safety is the first right of consumers. In recent years, consumers have paid more and more attention to the air quality in cars, and related consumer disputes are more prominent. It is suggested that starting from the protection of consumers’ safety rights, we should keep pace with the times to study automotive materials and formulate standard limits. In order to protect consumers’ rights, we should improve the detection methods of in-use vehicles and promote the convenience of identification. Starting from standardizing the use of materials, the filing system of environmental protection report for vehicle materials is established. It is hoped that enterprises in the industry will issue an indoor air quality test report while selling cars to protect consumers’ right to know and choose.

  It is understood that after the implementation of the "Guide for Air Quality Assessment in Passenger Cars" (GB/T 27630-2011) issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection, the products launched by vehicle manufacturers have improved to some extent through the monitoring of China Consumers Association, but the effect is limited. Around 2017, consumers’ concern about the air quality inside the car peaked again, which also shows that consumers are paying more and more attention to the possible violation of their safety rights caused by this hidden danger.

  In-vehicle environmental detection is controversial, and it is difficult for consumers to defend their rights.

  Heshan, president of china law society Consumer Law Research Association, said that as far as automobile products are concerned, in some cases of rights protection, there is a dispute about whether they are luxury goods or consumer goods. In this case, when consumers encounter vehicle air pollution, the detection resistance becomes greater. He believes that once consumers think that their rights and interests are damaged, they should still advocate that family cars are also consumer goods and use relevant laws to safeguard their legitimate rights and interests.

  Specific to the identification and evaluation links and standards, Jian Chen frankly said that there are not many institutions with testing qualifications at present, and the testing costs are high, and some institutions do not issue testing reports to individuals, etc., which are all technical difficulties when consumers protect their rights. Another major factor affecting rights protection is how to prove the relationship between the car environment and the consumer’s illness. This requires relevant departments to carry out relevant epidemiological investigations and follow-up studies.

  In fact, another important factor that makes it difficult for consumers to defend their rights is the lack of mandatory standards. It is understood that the Guide for Air Quality Assessment in Passenger Cars (GB/T 27630-2011) issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the Sampling and Determination Method of Volatile Organic Compounds and Aldehydes and Ketones in Cars (HJT 400-2007) issued by the State Environmental Protection Administration are authoritative testing standards and methods for evaluating air quality in cars. In the former, eight detection substances, including benzene, toluene, xylene, ethylbenzene, styrene, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde and acrolein, and their limit values are specified.

  However, the former, as a recommended standard, cannot force all enterprises to provide qualified automobile products. In 2016, the Ministry of Environmental Protection issued the "Guidelines for the Evaluation of Air Quality in Passenger Cars" (draft for comments), and proposed that the recommended standard would be upgraded to a mandatory standard, and it is planned to be implemented on January 1, 2017, making it clear that all newly-finalized sales vehicles must meet the requirements of this standard. However, after two years, the mandatory standard has repeatedly broken its promise.

  All kinds of gaps between consumers and access to in-vehicle air quality testing have made it difficult for consumers to take legal proceedings to protect their rights. "In more than a dozen judicial cases of air quality in cars I have studied, no consumer has won the lawsuit." Jiang Suhua, a lawyer of Beijing Yingke Law Firm, bluntly said that this is not to say that consumers can’t win this kind of lawsuit, but there are too many links involved, and a slight negligence may lead to a loss of one link.

  In addition, another difficulty in indoor air quality detection lies in the diversity of pollutant sources. Zhang Jinliang, a researcher at china environmental science Research Institute, believes that the air pollution sources in cars can be basically divided into interior decoration and decoration. According to Zhang Yue, the direct pollution sources of indoor air quality are mainly the dashboard assembly, door trim panel, carpet, ceiling, automotive wiring harness and seat assembly. In addition to the accessories installed by consumers, the pollution sources may also come from the outside of the car and the substances emitted by the car.

  Improving the air quality inside the car requires multi-party participation.

  Jiang Jun, the propaganda director of the C-ECAP Management Center of China Automotive Technology and Research Center Co., Ltd., pointed out that after testing more than 700 models on the market, the project team found that the proportion of models that can meet the relevant provisions in the Guide for Air Quality Evaluation in Passenger Cars (GB/T 27630-2011) is basically 50%, which means that half of the models still fail to meet the recommended standards, and there is still room for improvement in the overall industry level.

  The reality is that some models with substandard air inside the car are still in circulation in the market. According to the research data of Gaode Map, taking Beijing as an example, each person spends 174 hours on commuting congestion every year. Aside from the proportion of public transport trips, it is certain that the time and the number of consumers staying in the car are increasing year by year, and the range of consumers affected by the environmental quality in the car is also expanding simultaneously.

  So, what is the latest development of such a long-awaited mandatory standard?

  According to Guangsheng Song, some indicators in the "Guidelines for the Evaluation of Air Quality in Passenger Cars (Draft for Comment)" are stricter, while others are relaxed. In order to improve the number of new energy vehicles, regulations on battery radiation have been added, but the timetable for upgrading to mandatory standards and implementing them is still unknown.

  In this regard, Jiang Suhua believes that both the recommendation standard and the mandatory standard can be used as the basis for the judge’s judgment. This is not to say that the introduction of mandatory standards is not urgent, but compared with the time of introduction, from a lawyer’s point of view, it is more meaningful to modify the content of standards and involve the threshold of data.

  For vehicle manufacturers, the unanimous view of the guests attending the meeting is that improving the air quality inside the vehicle should start from the source, which requires enterprises to respect consumers and reduce pollution sources in product definition, product design, supplier selection, manufacturing, transportation and sales. As Wu Gaohan, former deputy secretary-general of China Consumers Association, said, consumers in China have now entered the stage of developing and enjoying consumption. At this stage, consumers’ pursuit of a better life is unstoppable, and the pursuit of quality consumption is unstoppable. Health is the most important part of a better life. Without health, there is no better life, and without health, there is no quality consumption. (Legal Daily, all-media reporter Cai Yanhong)

  Is "artificial meat" edible? Is online celebrity food reliable? Are probiotics really useful? What foods have you paid attention to in the past 2019? What troubles have they brought you? Food safety concerns people’s health and life safety. At the "Media Communication Meeting on Scientific Interpretation of Food Safety and Health Hotspots in 2019", which was directed by China Association for Science and Technology and hosted by chinese institute of food science and technology recently, experts combed and interpreted the hot events of food safety that the public paid attention to in the past year, and made suggestions for food safety supervision by popularizing food safety knowledge through examples. This edition extracts some hot topics to interpret.

"artificial meat"

Scientific and technological problems to be solved, standards and regulations to be improved.

  Interpretation expert: Wang Shouwei (Director of China Meat Food Comprehensive Research Center and Dean of Beijing Food Science Research Institute)

  "Artificial meat" is synonymous with foods that are not naturally produced and have a similar taste to meat. It is usually divided into two categories: vegetable protein meat and cell cultured meat. The emergence of "artificial meat" on the one hand is to meet the rapidly growing meat demand of consumers, on the other hand, it provides a way to effectively reduce the land occupation of animal husbandry, the use of water resources and greenhouse gas emissions, and solve the problems of environmental protection and sustainable development.

  In recent years, the processing technology of vegetable protein meat is becoming more and more mature at home and abroad, and many enterprises have developed vegetable protein meat products with vegetable protein as raw materials. The research on using animal stem cells to produce cells to cultivate meat has also made great progress, and many enterprises have announced that they can develop cells to cultivate meat in the laboratory. Vegetable protein meat has great market potential and a high degree of commercialization. In the future, developing products more similar to real meat has become a direction for the food industry and scientific and technological circles.

  In the innovation and development of "artificial meat", it is necessary to increase scientific and technological input and solve the existing scientific and technological problems of "artificial meat". For example, research on the formation mechanism, raw material supply and processing technology of vegetable protein meat should be carried out to build a new research and development system. In the process of industrialization, we pay attention to improving the flavor, texture and nutrition of products, and constantly meet the increasingly diversified needs of consumers. Carry out research on the basic theory and key production technology of cell-cultured meat, and establish a production technology system of cell-cultured meat suitable for human food manufacturing.

  While innovating and developing, adhering to product quality and safety is the foundation of the development of "artificial meat". It is suggested that the new ingredients and new production technology added in the production of "artificial meat" should be systematically evaluated for safety, and an independent standard system and an objective supervision system should be formed in the evaluation of product safety and nutritional components, so as to promote the benign development of the industry.

  Scientific and rigorous standards are the cornerstone of the healthy development of the industry. In China, the development momentum of vegetable protein meat industry has been formed, and the product categories are relatively mature, but the existing laws and regulations are not suitable for product innovation and industry development; The development of its standard should be carried out as soon as possible, and the definition, classification method and production technology should be clearly defined, which will provide convenience for government supervision and provide reference for the direction of production and innovation of products in the industry. In addition, the research and development of cell-cultured meat in China is still in its infancy, but the development speed is very fast, and the research on standards and supervision methods has just begun; The division of supervisory responsibilities and division of labor system should be clarified, and a strict system of standards and laws should be formed. In addition, public science popularization should be carried out to guide consumers to correctly understand and rationally consume "artificial meat".

Online celebrity food

Strictly guard against the transformation of "red and black"

  Interpretation expert: Ma Guansheng (Head of the Department of Nutrition and Food Hygiene, Peking University College of Public Health)

  Some sellers make use of social media’s special publicity and marketing methods to dress up homemade food as "online celebrity" food, which is popular in the circle of friends. From home-made delicious food to home-brewed fruit wine, from morning tea snacks to midnight snacks, from beauty soup to dietary remedies, there are all kinds of foods in the circle. Online food attracts waves of consumers with its novel appearance, photos or taste. However, when consumers buy food, they often ignore the quality of the food itself, including raw materials, production date, shelf life and production address.

  Due to the special sales channels (such as WeChat circle of friends, micro-stores), online celebrity food has some problems, such as difficult management and lack of effective supervision mechanism. Taking the incident of "there is no milk in milk tea" in online celebrity as an example, China’s national standard "Tea Beverage" (GB/T 21733-2008) defines milk tea drinks and milk tea-flavored drinks as liquid drinks prepared by taking water extract of tea or its concentrated solution and tea powder as raw materials and adding one or more of milk or dairy products, sugar and/or sweeteners, edible milk flavor essence, etc. Although there is a requirement for the protein content of milk tea in this standard (≥ 0.5%), but milk or dairy products are still only one of a variety of optional ingredients, not a hard requirement. Therefore, due to the lack of clear standards for existing milk tea, there is an embarrassing situation that "milk tea does not contain milk", which increases the maneuverability of merchants and brings blind spots to food safety supervision.

  It is suggested to improve the supervision mechanism and clarify the responsibilities and supervision methods of all parties in the business activities of non-traditional foods such as online food sales. At the same time, strengthen regular sampling and random inspection, and urge network platforms and production operators to implement the main responsibility. Strike hard at illegal food safety behaviors in online sales, strictly investigate and deal with behaviors such as "brushing the bill" and "false comments", and protect consumers’ rights and safety with strict supervision.

  Online celebrity food is mainly sold through the online platform, so the online platform should assume the responsibility of screening and supervision. The network platform should establish a mechanism to help the superior and limit the inferior, strictly control the entry threshold of merchants, inspect and regularly review their retail qualifications and relevant licenses for selling products, and prevent counterfeit and shoddy foods from being sold on the network platform. Food enterprises and individual food producers should strengthen the construction of industrial chain safety, ensure the safety and traceability of product sources, make the product chain clear, and prevent and control risks. As consumers themselves, they should constantly improve their health literacy and food safety literacy, make rational purchases, and not blindly "chase after the red".

probiotics

The efficacy has the specificity of strains and people.

  Interpretation expert: Chen Wei (Academician of China Academy of Engineering, Chairman of Probiotics Branch of chinese institute of food science and technology, Vice President of Jiangnan University); He Guoqing (Vice Chairman of chinese institute of food science and technology Probiotics Branch, Professor of Zhejiang University)

  Probiotics have a strict definition: they must be living microorganisms, which are beneficial to the health of the host when ingested in sufficient quantities. Moreover, the health function of probiotics should be based on scientific and rigorous clinical trial evaluation and evidence-based medical evidence. At present, tens of thousands of published academic papers have studied the functions of different probiotic strains, confirming that the core function of probiotics is to improve the health of human gastrointestinal tract. In addition, in vitro experiments such as cell model, animal experiments and human experiments show that probiotics may have potential beneficial functions to improve metabolism and nervous system. However, in vitro experiments and the actual human digestive system are completely different worlds, and the results of in vitro experiments can never be used to claim the functions of probiotics. Animal experiments can be used as a reference, but it needs to be confirmed by large-scale and deeper human or clinical experiments.

  It is a long-term, rigorous and scientific process for human beings to explore the efficacy of probiotics. At present, there are various probiotic products with claimed functions on the market. However, it should be emphasized that the academic community has reached a consensus that the core function of probiotics is to improve gastrointestinal health.

  Generally speaking, the mainstream probiotic strains in the market are all isolated from healthy people and fermented foods with a long history of safe use. Most of them are considered as non-pathogenic symbiotic microorganisms, and their safety has been recognized by authoritative organizations. Of course, for sick individuals, such as patients with severe infection or immunodeficiency, they should be used with caution or consult a doctor.

  It should also be noted that the efficacy of probiotics has the specificity of strains and people. There are differences in probiotic efficacy among different strains; There are also differences in physiological regulation of probiotics among different hosts. Therefore, in the future, we should confirm the relevant probiotic functions at the strain level, judge and apply the individual functions of probiotics according to the individual characteristics of different hosts, and pay attention to personalized precise nutrition. Of course, the industrial application of probiotics must also be verified by scientific and rigorous processes. For example, the species, even the genetic composition and basic physiological and biochemical characteristics of the strain are first studied, and then the adaptability, safety and probiotic characteristics of the strain are evaluated in turn, and finally the probiotic dosage and probiotic combination with satisfactory efficacy are selected.

  In addition, consumers should choose probiotic-related products scientifically and reasonably. For lactic acid bacteria drinks, consumers should pay attention to distinguish product types when purchasing. According to the relevant standards in China, the labels of lactic acid bacteria drinks should be marked with live bacteria (non-sterilization) or non-live bacteria (sterilization), and they can be distinguished by labels when purchasing. When consumers buy yogurt, they should keep it reasonably according to the label. Low-temperature yogurt should be sold in cold storage. When they return home after purchase, they should put it in the refrigerator as soon as possible and drink it in time to ensure its strain activity.

  Probiotics have individual differences in their effects on health, and there is no "all-purpose" probiotic strain, which is suitable for everyone and all physical conditions. We should further strengthen the popular science education of consumers, popularize the professional knowledge of probiotics and clarify the scientific concept of "quantity" of probiotics, so that consumers can rationally choose probiotic products.

Self-heating food

It is necessary to cross the safety hurdle of "self-heating package"

  Interpretation expert: Lu Fuping (Vice President of chinese institute of food science and technology and Vice President of Tianjin University of Science and Technology)

  Self-heating food is a product that heats food with flameless self-heater and quickly reheates it to edible state. In recent years, a series of self-heating products represented by self-heating hot pot have developed rapidly. Besides the common self-heating hot pot and self-heating rice, there are also self-heating porridge, noodles, rice noodles, soup, etc., which are diverse and meet the urgent needs of consumers for hot food in more consumption scenarios.

  Although the safety of self-heating food is generally controllable, the safety risk of "self-heating package" should be paid full attention to. Since self-heating food uses the chemical reaction between heating agent and water to generate heat to heat the food. Occasional phenomena such as "self-heated food rupture" or "unstable temperature of self-heated food" have aroused people’s concern about the safety of self-heated food.

  Under the current self-heating technology in China, the chemical self-heating package used for self-heating food is mostly magnesium/iron for military use and aluminum-water for civilian use. No matter what kind of heating package, a small amount of hydrogen will be produced when heating. If individuals eat or a small number of people gather to eat, even in a closed environment, the amount of hydrogen generated by the heating of the heating package is far from the limit that can cause explosion. Under normal circumstances, the normal products will be eaten according to the normal operating procedures, and there will be no risk and safety problems such as cracking. However, if people eat a lot of self-heating food at the same time in a closed environment, or if the vent hole on the self-heating food packaging box is blocked, there may be potential safety hazards, which need to be paid full attention to.

  It is suggested to increase the research on the safety of self-heating package and develop a self-heating package with high efficiency and good safety. By developing energy-efficient formula and new heating device, the generation of hydrogen and water vapor can be controlled or reduced, the demand for energy efficiency release and utilization can be improved, and the safety level can be improved. Develop a new type of physical self-heating device, use renewable energy and reduce pollution. In addition, it is necessary to enhance the effectiveness and support ability of the self-heating device in various scenarios.

  The rapid development of self-heating food industry has attracted a large number of enterprises to join. However, due to the imperfect standards and specifications of self-heating food, the enterprises that have joined the self-heating food industry are mixed, which seriously affects the healthy development of the industry. At present, only the group standard "Self-heating Convenient Cuisine Products" issued by China Business Federation in 2017. From the perspective of regulating the industry, self-heating food needs more stringent standards to ensure its healthy development. It is understood that the industry is actively exploring how to establish a unified standard, for example, by standardizing the chemical composition and proportion, heating intensity, hydrogen production and other indicators contained in self-heating food heating packages, and making clear requirements for the treatment of final waste, so as to improve the entry threshold of the industry and standardize the healthy development of the industry.

Special medical food

Not for everyone

  Interpretation expert: Ren Fazheng (Academician of China Academy of Engineering, Vice Chairman of chinese institute of food science and technology Probiotics Branch, Professor of China Agricultural University)

  Special medical food is formula food for special medical use, which is specially processed and prepared to meet the special needs of people with limited eating, digestive and absorption disorders, metabolic disorders or specific disease States for nutrients or meals. It also has a very strict classification, which is currently divided into two categories: people aged from 0 months to 12 months and people over 1 year old.

  On the basic functions of special medical food — — At present, there is a broad consensus on nutritional support, including improving the treatment and rehabilitation effect, shortening the course of disease, reducing medical expenses, increasing the turnover rate of hospital beds, and reducing the readmission rate, which can be solved through nutritional support and special medical food. The World Health Organization has proposed that if more money is invested in nutrition and health care, less 8.5 yuan can be spent on treatment and the cost of rescue in 100 yuan can be saved. It can be said that the nutritional support function of special medical food is indispensable in clinic. Of course, it can’t replace drugs.

  Special medical food is a new industry in our country, and our government attaches great importance to it, and has made very strict management regulations at the beginning of the industry development. Special medical food should be registered by the food safety supervision and administration department of the State Council, and the formula of special medical food should be based on the research results of medicine and nutrition, and its safety and clinical application effect need to be scientifically confirmed.

  According to news reports, some illegal enterprises produce ordinary solid drinks, pass off as special medical milk powder and mislead consumers. This kind of behavior belongs to false propaganda, which should be severely cracked down and strengthened management. In addition, when the special medical food is registered and put on record, the product formula and production technology are strictly regulated. Food enterprises should produce special medical food according to the registered formula, and cannot produce special medical food without obtaining the registered formula and production license.

  The demand emphasizes that special medical food is special and not suitable for everyone. Moreover, different special people need different special medical foods. We should strengthen the popularization of special medical food, let consumers know its particularity and eat it according to the doctor’s advice.

Reduce salt, oil and sugar

Science and technology lead, scientific implementation

  Interpretation expert: Chen Junshi (Academician of China Academy of Engineering, General Consultant of National Food Safety Risk Assessment Center)

  The diet of Chinese residents is high in salt, oil and sugar. "Three reductions" is not an isolated matter, it is an important part of the whole reasonable diet. Whether it is the government supervision department, food industry or consumers, it is necessary to raise awareness and establish the concept of "reasonable diet".

  Carrying out the "three reductions" action is not a matter for any department or enterprise, but should be coordinated and promoted by all parties. The government should formulate corresponding policies to lead the "three reductions" action, and catering and food processing enterprises should provide diversified products with different levels of salt, oil and sugar for consumers to choose by reducing the use of salt, oil and sugar. Residents gradually reduce the use of salt, oil and sugar in their daily cooking.

  In particular, the food industry and catering industry should accelerate the transformation and upgrading of nutrition according to the health needs of consumers, and take the initiative to take measures to reduce the use of salt, oil and sugar in food. This requires increasing scientific and technological support, laying a solid scientific foundation, solving the problems such as product flavor change and shortened shelf life that may be caused by "three reductions", innovating and developing new foods, and leading a healthy transformation with science and technology. In addition, there are different dietary nutrition problems in different regions and different groups of people, so nutrition science education should be targeted and reflect differentiation. Nutrition intervention should be precise, and the implementation of policies should be based on science and practical. Focus on guiding enterprises to provide more differentiated products for consumers to choose, and guide consumers to choose products that suit them reasonably.

  The action of "three reductions" needs to be carried out step by step in line with China’s national conditions, instead of "eating a fat man at one breath". It takes time to change people’s tastes, not quick. The improvement of cooking, methods and food processing technology also takes time, which cannot be achieved overnight, and should be carried out step by step in accordance with scientific laws. The transformation of consumer health concept needs long-term positive guidance and popularization of scientific knowledge. Therefore, the implementation of the "three reductions" action must be gradual, and various problems must be solved step by step.

Food fraud

Counterfeiting detection technology needs to be upgraded

  Interpretation expert: Wu Yongning (Chairman of chinese institute of food science and technology Food Authenticity and Traceability Branch, Technical Chief of National Food Safety Risk Assessment Center); Chen Ying (Vice President and Chief Engineer of China Academy of Inspection and Quarantine)

  Food quality, food safety and food truth are three attributes of food. The authenticity problems such as food fraud and forgery exist at home and abroad. For example, as the saying goes in China, "selling dog meat by hanging sheep’s head" and the "horse meat passing off as beef" that happened in Europe a few years ago. The World Health Organization once pointed out that apart from food-borne diseases, more and more food fraud and food fraud problems need to be paid attention to.

  Ensuring the authenticity of food is not only to protect public health, but also a necessary measure to curb the market chaos of "bad money drives out good money", standardize the market competition order and boost food consumption confidence. At present, China has basically met the public’s requirements for the quantity and quality of food, and the concern for food safety has reached a higher level. However, for a long time, the investment in food authenticity technology is relatively lacking, and it is difficult to guarantee the scientific supervision of "food authenticity". If food fraud is "a magic height of one foot", then the detection technology of counterfeit identification must be "a magic height of one foot".

  It is suggested to increase the scientific and technological investment in food authenticity research and overcome the technical difficulties and supervision problems of food authenticity. At the same time, speed up the transformation of technical standards of food authenticity, formulate corresponding detection methods and standards, and provide technical support for scientific supervision of food authenticity in China.

Electric research institute: how to solve the charging failure of pure electric vehicles

  [car home Electric Vehicle] The vehicle can’t be charged by fast charging piles. I wonder if pure electric vehicle friends have ever encountered a similar situation? This happened to our work car recently. Looking at the forum, I found that there were more than one cyclist who had similar problems. Today, let’s take a look at it together. How to solve the charging failure of the vehicle? What caused this? If your car is in the same situation, please refer to our solution.

Home of the car

Home of the car

● How to solve the problem of not being able to charge quickly?

  Previously, our work car suddenly failed to be charged through the State Grid charging pile, but the charging pile itself was normal, because other vehicles could be charged through this pile. In order to verify whether there is a problem with the vehicle, we went to the other two charging stations to try, and the results were the same: we could not start charging.

Home of the car

  I believe that many riders have also encountered the situation that vehicles cannot be charged. First of all, we can confirm whether the failure of vehicle charging is caused by the failure of charging piles. Obviously, the situation we encountered is not the failure of charging piles, but the problem of vehicles, so we chose to go to the 4S shop to find a solution. We learned from the after-sales staff of the 4S shop that the failure of vehicle charging may be due to the problem of software (vehicle charging protocol). Generally, the software is updated when pure electric vehicles are maintained, so there are few customers who upgrade the software alone, but we still asked the 4S shop to refresh the charging software of our work car.

Home of the car

Home of the car

  After the upgrade, we tried to charge the vehicle quickly again. At this time, several national grid charging piles can charge the vehicle. If your car also has the situation that the State Grid charging pile can’t be charged, you may wish to try to upgrade the charging system in the 4S shop, which may solve your problem; In addition, when the vehicle is undergoing routine maintenance/inspection, the owner can remind the 4S shop to check whether the vehicle charging agreement needs to be updated, so as to avoid trouble caused by software problems later.

Home of the car

  In the Cheyou Forum, we can also see that more than one car owner has encountered the problem of charging too fast, and some of them have also solved the problem by upgrading their software. In fact, the so-called upgrade software is to enable vehicles and charging piles to communicate normally. Since we talked about this issue today, we might as well talk about it by the way. What is the national standard charging protocol and what does the communication between charging piles and vehicles mean?

● What is the national charging protocol/communication protocol?

  First of all, why do charging piles and vehicles have national charging agreements? The national standard charging protocol makes the charging interface and communication of different brands of pure electric vehicles have unified standards, which also makes the charging service more standardized; Vehicles and charging piles all adopt the national standard charging protocol, so as to realize that different brands of vehicles can be charged with different public charging piles, and help the market to further unify.

Home of the car

  For example, nowadays, almost all smartphones in Android system use the Type-C charging interface, and many electronic devices that can be charged through USB also use the same charging interface. The purpose of this is to unify the standards and realize interoperability. "You can charge when you get the cable". Does this greatly improve the convenience of charging? Of course, the charging conditions of pure electric vehicles are much more complicated than that of mobile phones, and the former needs to join the charging agreement.

Home of the car

  In addition, if the national standard charging agreement is not established, different brands of vehicles and charging piles may have different technical routes, which may lead to inconsistent safety; The national standard charging protocol has unified requirements for fast charging interface and safety requirements. Including charging piles, the charging gun should meet the requirements of no deformation at high temperature, no damage due to falling or collision, waterproof and dustproof; Therefore, in addition to compatibility, the national standard charging protocol can also play an important role in charging safety.

Home of the car

  Specifically, our latest GB charging protocol GBT27930-2015 upgraded five national standards of vehicle charging interface and communication protocol, thus achieving the purpose of updating and unifying software and hardware. For example, the national standard charging protocol adds the functions of charging interface temperature monitoring, electronic lock, insulation monitoring, discharge circuit and so on.

Home of the car

  With the hardware standard, the rest is the software part, which is what we call communication. In fact, we upgrade the software so that the charging pile and the car can communicate normally, otherwise the car will not be able to charge normally. To put it simply, communication is the process of continuous communication and information exchange between the vehicle and the charging pile. Only by "communicating with each other", "disclosing to each other" and "reporting to each other" can the charging process be successfully completed.

I have been driving for more than a year. Let’s talk about the personal situation of Changan Yidong plus.

Author: Leasue

long-winded

I changed my local job for 20 years and came to a big city from a ravine. At first, my transportation was a small electric Sitter, because I didn’t plan to buy a car because I was expected to be seconded for one year.

Fortunately, when I was seconded for almost a year, I competed for formal employees, so I planned to buy a car. The rainy season in Kunming is also coming soon, so buying a car is put on the agenda.

Car selection

Considering that I drive a car alone most of the time, once a month, my family occasionally travels 200 kilometers away, and I take my baby to dinner alone every week, and I have no money in my hand.

It is estimated that the down payment will be 5 W, so I aimed at the A-class car. What is expensive is that I can’t afford it. I started to watch cars in various apps and forums. The general direction is these cars:

1. LaVida, the champion of mass sales, has a good car. Unfortunately, the money is small. This budget can only buy 1.5L self-priming, and it was still the old version in May of 2011. The car is too old-fashioned.

2, mainly look at the 1.2T Deluxe Edition, landing about 13 times, the loan pressure is slightly greater, the whole system comes standard with praise, and the interior and car machine are too tight.

3. Lei Ling is basically the same as Corolla.

4, Arrizo, the top is equipped with 9.99 W, the discount is about 5,000, and the configuration is also very high. I visited 2 4s and landed almost 11, black!

5. Finally, Buick, Chevrolet and Yinglang Chevrolet are too small, especially in the back row, but the price is very low. When Weilang was in the process of replacement, the new one was not available, and the old one was out of stock.

.

6, Changan Yidong, Ruiyi CC, let’s talk about Yidong first. At the beginning of 4s, WeChat agreed on a loan of 10.8, and then went to the store and changed it to 11.2, hehe.

Ruicheng CC, a quasi-"B" class car, has a wheelbase of 2770, which is 7 cm larger than Yidong, and the corresponding length of the car is 7 cm. After a test drive, the landing is more than 1.5 times more expensive than Yidong.

Occasionally, Baidu saw Che Hemei, a self-operated store in Chang ‘an, with a loan of 63,000 years in interest-free installments, and basically did not have to wait for the bus, and chose the Andean gray roof, Hongnei.

This is a good card for driving home. Park it in your own parking space.

This was taken at the time of the first insurance. It’s fairly regular, and the cover is not much, so it can’t be compared with Chery and Geely.

The tire is SUS318A 17 inch from Chaoyang, which is not expensive for 300 yuan.

There is a piece of sound insulation cotton on the engine cover, and the effect is average.

advantages and disadvantages

Space: space is an excellent student in the same class, and it is also a disadvantage to be short in the seat, which is 4 cm shorter than the mainstream car! ! The passenger space in the back row is ok, and the seat can also be reclined at 46, but the co-pilot is also manually adjusted, so I’m sorry that this top meets the specifications.

Configuration: Intelligent configuration is OK, but it is L2, which should be worse than lane keeping and automatic parking. Such as active safety, 540-degree image, full-speed adaptive cruise and full skylight are all good. The most hateful thing is that there is no automatic parking auto hold and bad review! The new model has also been added, alas, it is really only one or two minor problems that have been improved!

Sound insulation: Generally speaking, the roads in the city are still quiet below 60, and it will be very big when it reaches 120. Especially for the newly paved roads, this tire is a bit picky. There is nothing we can do about the price. We can only wait until the tire is changed, but the whole car is here, and it is estimated that it has not changed much. It is better to change to a better car in the future.

Car machine: The top two 10.25-inch screens look very powerful. Unfortunately, the main driver’s seat can only display the basic information of the vehicle, but it can’t fly the screen and display navigation, and it depends on the middle entertainment screen. The overall reaction speed of the lathe is average, the interface switching has a large delay, and sliding on the same screen is ok. Up to now, the system has been updated twice, and it is estimated that there will be no more in the future. The new model will definitely not be a pipe fitting. One place that needs to be spit out is that there are only CCTV audio-visual and cool music in the application market. As a result, CCTV audio-visual has to spend extra money to open services, and many cool people can use it as members. There is also a big car problem, voice search often can’t find anything! If you can’t find it, give me a random search!

Fuel consumption: At present, the meter shows 7.2L for more than 10,000 kilometers, but the fuel consumption calculated by my software is about 7.5-7.6L, and the expressway in the city is almost half. At present, I use the economic model. The high-speed Kaiping is a little above and below six, and the city can have about seven if there is no traffic jam. If there is a little traffic jam, I will go to eight, while if I use the normal model, the overall fuel consumption will be 0.5, which is the actual fuel consumption. As for the sports mode, I tried it once, but the fuel consumption is going up. I haven’t driven it for a long time, and it is expected to be about 1 higher than ordinary.

Another disadvantage is that there is no physical button for air conditioning temperature! At present, only voice control or touch screen settings are available, which is not as refreshing as physical buttons!

Another disadvantage is that the cup holder will block his hand in this position! The new model will be changed soon, cheating!

Then, after only a few months of driving, there was no blood, and it was pierced by a screw! But fortunately, only a little gas was exposed, and the pressure dropped from 2.5 to about 1.8. Fortunately, I persisted all the way to the Tuhu store and spent 80 yuan to install a mushroom head.

By the time I published this article, 17,000 kilometers have been opened, and the first insurance has been maintained for three times. The first insurance is 3 months or 5,000 kilometers, and then every six months or 7,500 kilometers, all the kilometers have not arrived. Time is up.

When I bought a car, I gave a total of 12 maintenance (including the first insurance), and the working hours of charter oil filter. The only expense I paid was that I thought the fuel consumption was a little high when I was in the second insurance, just because 4S recommended cleaning. I spent 99 yuan on that kind of cleaning, but this one doesn’t need to be spent. Others don’t spend money at present, so it’s gentle for me to drive. It’s time to speed up. Only a few pebbles hit or scratched the car body, and the maintenance service attitude is not bad. I have had two lunches.

As my first car in the true sense, it can meet all the needs at present, and the space is spacious, and the power can run, and some intelligent configurations are also very convenient.

That’s about it. Domestic cars are just like that. The overall use is good, and the after-sales maintenance is ok. The design style level is passable at night, which means that you must be mentally prepared to buy domestic cars! Cars are just for driving. They are used to keep you warm and convenient on the road. You must drive and choose according to your own strength. Don’t lose your face and do what you can. I have thought about good cars and luxury cars, but I am nothing in front of the house and children’s tickets.

This car is going to run out of maintenance until it is delivered. At that time, we will wait and see the electric car. If the battery life changes greatly, let’s continue to change to an oil car.

It’s a bit messy. Write whatever comes to mind on your mobile phone. Please bear with me if you have any questions.

Lynk & Co 08 is shocked by black technology! Apple users cheer the arrival of the UWB key function, what’s the mystery?

Key points! Apple users can finally experience the UWB key function! What kind of fairy operation is this? Think about it, we used to be scratching our heads because we couldn’t find the car keys, but now we can drive directly by pulling out our mobile phones. This is simply the best portrayal of technology changing our lives!

But wait, don’t rush high, let’s talk about what this UWB is first.

Ultra-Wideband, referred to as UWB, is called ultra-wideband technology in Chinese. Sounds big, doesn’t it? In fact, it is a short-range wireless communication technology, which is more accurate than Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Imagine that it is like installing a super-accurate GPS for your phone and car, with errors as small as a few centimeters! What does this mean? It means that you no longer have to worry about finding your car, even in a huge parking lot!

So the question is, why are Apple users able to use this feature now?

It turned out that although Apple started supporting UWB technology as early as iPhone 11, car manufacturers have not kept up with the rhythm. Until recently, Lynk & Co 08 EM-P finally opened the door to technology for Apple users in the latest OTA upgrade.

Speaking of which, I have to give Lynk & Co a thumbs up. I remember attending an automotive technology show last year, when I was shocked by Lynk & Co’s level of intelligence. I didn’t expect them to bring us such a big surprise in just one year.

However, just having the UWB key function is not enough. The OTA upgrade of Lynk & Co 08 EM-P also brings a lot of other black technologies. For example, new features of remote control. Imagine that in summer, you can turn on the air conditioner with your mobile phone before you get to the car, and when you get in the car, the car is already cool as spring. This is simply the gospel of lazy people!

There is also the upgrade of intelligent assisted driving, which is very interesting. I took a test drive some time ago, and it felt like an invisible driver was driving for you. Of course, safety comes first, so everyone should always be vigilant. After all, no matter how advanced technology is, it cannot match the judgment of the human brain.

Speaking of which, I have to sigh that the OTA upgrade has really changed the entire automotive industry chain. I remember that when I bought a car, I had to go to the 4S store to upgrade the function, which was troublesome and time-consuming. Now? Lying on the sofa and tapping my phone to get it done, isn’t this the "lying down" life we dream of?

However, there are also some risks hidden behind this convenience. For example, what if the OTA system is hacked? Think about it, a high-speed car is suddenly remotely controlled, which is more exciting than science fiction! Therefore, automakers should pay special attention to safety issues while promoting intelligence.

Having said that, I suddenly thought of an interesting phenomenon. Have you noticed that today’s cars are more and more like a four-wheeled smartphone? Not only can it drive itself, but it can also play music, navigate, and even chat with you. I even began to wonder if the cars of the future will evolve into Transformers?

Just kidding, but seriously, the development direction of smart connected cars is indeed worth looking forward to. Maybe in the near future, we will see real "thinking" cars. They can not only drive themselves, but also choose the most suitable route according to your mood, and even automatically take you to the best restaurant nearby when you are hungry.

Overall, the OTA upgrade of Lynk & Co 08 EM-P not only allows Apple users to taste the sweetness of the UWB key function, but also shows us the bright future of smart cars.

Finally, I want to say that the speed of technological development is really too fast, sometimes it is a little overwhelming. However, no matter how technology develops, we must remember that technology is designed to serve humanity, not dominate it. Therefore, while enjoying the convenience brought by technology, we must also maintain the ability to think independently. This is the real wisdom.

Well, that’s it for today’s sharing. If you find it interesting, don’t forget to like and follow! I’m your big cousin in science and technology. See you next time!

In the million-level battle, which one is better than the Red Flag LS7 or the Lincoln Navigator?

The size of the full-size SUV is equipped with a luxurious design and a large-displacement V8 engine. Once upon a time, people hoped that their own brands could have such a configuration. Today, Hongqi finally brought us such a model – Hongqi LS7.

As the flagship of the Hongqi L series, its price is definitely the highest level of Chinese brand SUV. And its most direct competitor is undoubtedly the Lincoln Navigator, a ceiling-level American SUV sold through domestic official channels. So, at a similar price, similar size and positioning, who is the winner of this PK?

Appearance comparison

With its oversized size and the status of Hongqi’s flagship SUV, the Hongqi LS7 can definitely provide owners with an aura that exceeds the price. Lincoln Navigator is no exception, and the rugged sense of American SUV is vividly reflected in it. To sum up, Hongqi LS7 has the unique elegance of Chinese people, while Lincoln Navigator has the luxury of a yacht.

In terms of size, the length, width and height of the Hongqi LS7 are 5695 * 2095 * 1985mm, and the wheelbase is 3309mm; the length, width and height of the Lincoln Navigator are 5657 * 2073 * 1934mm, and the wheelbase is 3342mm. No matter the body size or wheelbase, the difference between the two models is not large. At the same time, their length and wheelbase also meet the definition of a full-size SUV. The slender and burly body makes them need not be decorated with too many lines, which is enough to highlight what is atmospheric.

In terms of the treatment of the appearance of the whole vehicle, the two are still different. The Hongqi LS7 will have more curved surfaces and add more chrome decoration, which is more solemn; the Lincoln Navigator is flatter on the line, which is particularly evident at the rear, but the design such as the floating roof makes it not stiff, which is why American SUVs have always given a rough impression.

Interior comparison

Entering the car, the difference in appearance between the two cars is further magnified. The interior of the Hongqi LS7 looks solemn and calm, and the addition of a large number of wood grain trim panels to match the square shape above looks classical and noble. The interior of the Lincoln Navigator is relatively fashionable, and the combination of light colors and chrome trim panels makes people feel that the "yacht" atmosphere is more intense.

In terms of details, the steering wheel of the Hongqi LS7 has added the Golden Sunflower LOGO, and the full LCD dashboard has also added the Chinese ink painting style, which directly fills the Chinese elements. Lincoln Navigator’s approach is relatively conventional, but the quality is not low at all, whether it is material or touch, it will not be inferior to the Hongqi LS7.

In the comparison of comfort configuration, Hongqi LS7, as a latecomer, has the advantage. Such as electric suction doors, 256-color ambient lights, built-in driving recorder, etc., are all different advantages of Hongqi LS7. But what is a little puzzling is that Hongqi LS7 is actually inferior to Lincoln Navigator in driver assistance configuration. The fashionable parallel assist, lane keeping and full speed adaptive cruise are all not available in Hongqi LS7. Is it because the manufacturer thinks that the users who buy this car have drivers so they don’t need it?

Overall, the interiors of the two cars are strongly stylized, especially the Hongqi LS7. From the perspective of material and touch, the two are on par, so the final difference lies in the look and feel, which is what we often call "each flower to each eye".

Spatial and dynamic comparison

From the seat configuration point of view, the Hongqi LS7 has a comfortable headrest, and the seat design is also more wide, but the navigator’s seat can be adjusted at more angles, making it easier to find their own comfortable angle, which can be said to have their own advantages and disadvantages. As for the heating/ventilation/massage functions we often talk about, for two million luxury cars, it is naturally the basic configuration.

(Red Flag LS7)

(Lincoln Navigator)

In terms of seat layout, the two are also different. Hongqi LS7 offers two layouts of 6 and 4 seats, and the use scenario is IKEA. Lincoln Navigator only provides a seat layout of 7 seats. For this full-size SUV, there is no need to worry about whether the third row is practical, and the seat layout of 2 + 2 + 3 will not be troublesome for you to enter the third row.

In terms of power, the Hongqi LS7 is equipped with a 4.0L V8 twin-turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 360Ps and a peak torque of 500N · m; the Navigator is equipped with a 3.5L V6 twin-turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 388Ps and a peak torque of 680N · m. By the way, the Lincoln Navigator not only has more beautiful parameters, but also can use 92 #gasoline, and also provides an economic model. For such a "big guy", the purpose of fuel saving is not to save money, but to reduce the number of trips to the gas station.

In terms of suspension, the Hongqi LS7 uses a combination of front double wishbone independent suspension and rear integral bridge non-independent suspension; the Lincoln Navigator is a combination of front double wishbone independent suspension and rear multi-link independent suspension, and both vehicles are equipped with a timely four-wheel drive system.

Overall, the space performance and comfort performance of the two cars are very similar, but the Lincoln Navigator is more beautiful in power data, and since the Navigator is lighter in tonnage, its actual power performance will presumably be stronger. So if you are more likely to drive yourself, the Lincoln Navigator will undoubtedly make you drive "better".

summarize

The Hongqi LS7 is undoubtedly a model with a very oriental design sense. The appearance is domineering, with many classic elements of Hongqi, and the interior design is also very gorgeous. The combination of wood grain trim and gold trim is in line with its should temperament. The Lincoln Navigator yacht-style design is also very luxurious and noble. It has a sense of style on the outside. The light-colored interior also has a great texture. There are also a lot of driving aids to help this behemoth. But there is no doubt that no matter which one you buy, these two cars are enough to show passers-by the identity and financial resources of the people in the car.

Experience the dynamic stability of the Asian Dragon in 9 extreme events

  From the end of 2018 to the present, during the months-long warm-up process, we have witnessed many highlights in the design, craftsmanship, power, chassis and other aspects of the FAW Toyota Asian Dragon. Now, FAW Toyota has moved this model from the "static display" stage to the "dynamic test drive" stage.

  A few days ago, at the Ningbo International Circuit, we took the Asian Dragon to the track and experienced its core strength under the TNGA architecture from nine extreme test events.

Car Channel [March 8] [Home Car Information List + Highlights List] Feel the dynamic stability of the Asian Dragon in 9 extreme projects

  Before introducing the track performance of the Asian Dragon, let’s talk about the main highlights that TNGA gives this model. First, let’s take a look at the design of the Asian Dragon. Although design is more about appearance, it also plays a crucial role in the power performance of a car. The best combination of design and power is wind resistance.

Car Channel [March 8] [Home Car Information List + Highlights List] Feel the dynamic stability of the Asian Dragon in 9 extreme projects

  According to the introduction, the drag coefficient of the Asian Dragon is 0.27, which is quite advantageous for a family car positioned in the B + category. And from the optimization of its appearance design, we can also clearly feel the aerodynamic characteristics of this model.

Car Channel [March 8] [Home Car Information List + Highlights List] Feel the dynamic stability of the Asian Dragon in 9 extreme projects

  For example, there are "side air curtains" on both sides of its front face that are more conducive to air circulation, and the swooping waist line of the body and the triangular window designed at an acute angle all add a lot to its sense of speed. In addition, in order to reduce wind resistance and wind noise, the designer has raised parts on the rearview mirror and tail light of the Asian Dragon. The details are practical and exquisite.

  In addition to creating a "sense of speed" in the design, the real test of the dynamic performance of the Asian Dragon is the engine, chassis, steering system, etc. hidden in the car.

  During the course of the track test drive, in order to test the handling stability, acceleration, and comfort of the Asian Dragon, the organizers specially set up 9 extreme test drive projects: unequal distance pile winding, medium speed pile winding, high-speed corners, dual-lane lane change, acceleration-deceleration braking, bumpy road sections, quietness, electronic power steering, and lane deviation.

Car Channel [March 8] [Home Car Information List + Highlights List] Feel the dynamic stability of the Asian Dragon in 9 extreme projects

  Among them, in the unequal distance pile winding link, based on the low center of gravity body design, coupled with the brisk and accurate pointing electronic steering system, the Asian Dragon can easily pass at a speed of less than 20km/h. In the medium speed pile winding link, also with the low center of gravity and a good front-to-rear counterweight ratio, the driver can drive the Asian Dragon at a speed of 40km/h through the obstacle pile bucket spaced 40 meters apart. At the same time, during the test, the vehicle steering is accurate, flexible, and the roll is small, so that the driving comfort and stability achieve the best balance.

  As we all know, the faster the vehicle is driving, the greater the centrifugal force will be generated. With the blessing of the high-stiffness body, the Asian Dragon has good torsional stiffness, providing excellent and stable lateral support for the vehicle. When we drive the Asian Dragon at high speed, we can clearly feel the support force of the vehicle and the stability it brings to the vehicle.

  In the acceleration-braking process, the high compression thermal efficiency of the TNGA engine of the Asian Dragon gasoline version is 40%, and the thermal efficiency advantage of the hybrid model is 41%. The vehicle not only starts and accelerates smoothly and quickly, but also has a very sensitive and precise braking response. In the emergency braking operation, the body leans forward very gently. Overall, the handling is stable and the ride is comfortable.

  In addition, in the process of simulating the quietness of high-speed driving, when the vehicle is driving on long-distance straights at a speed of 100km/h, the comprehensive noise reduction design effect of the vehicle is very outstanding, and the fetal noise and wind noise in the car are small, and the mute effect is very good. According to reports, this is due to the low wind resistance of the Asian Dragon 0.27 body and various noise reduction measures taken in key parts: for example, the front engine cover is equipped with a sound absorber, the fender is equipped with a divider, the door area has a resin repair hole cover and sound insulation glass, the cabin frame beam has foam and shock absorption materials, the floor has a shock absorption coating, the floor has a muffler pad, etc. The completely flat chassis has a large area of cover, which also greatly optimizes the NVH of the cockpit.

  In the last part of the track test drive, we came to the bumpy road surface, and the purpose of the organizer to set up this session is to test whether the suspension adjustment of the Asian Dragon meets the user’s comfort requirements. After the test drive, it was found that when the vehicle passes through the bumpy road at a speed of 30km/h, the AVS adaptive variable suspension equipped with the gasoline version of the Asian Dragon can perform real-time damping control for rough road sections. Each suspension can adjust the damping and rebound damping force to ensure the stability and high comfort of the vehicle when driving on bumpy road sections. The hybrid version of the Asian Dragon is equipped with a high-potential TNGA new rear suspension double fork arm structure, which can greatly reduce the impact and road input of the vehicle on bumpy road surfaces, and improve the fatigue resistance of the vehicle body.

Car Channel [March 8] [Home Car Information List + Highlights List] Feel the dynamic stability of the Asian Dragon in 9 extreme projects

  Judging from the performance of this track test drive, with the support of the low center of gravity body design, the Asian Dragon has achieved a perfect balance of speed and stability. In addition, the high-sensitivity shock absorption system (AVS) equipped in some gasoline models makes the Asian Dragon’s driving comfort significantly better than that of its peers. At the same time, its excellent performance in steering, braking and chassis makes driving easier and full of pleasure.

  As a B-class product based on TNGA, the Asian Dragon maintains the "Toyota" characteristics in handling, but also further upgrades in driving stability and comfort. In terms of its dynamic performance, FAW Toyota regards it as a "flagship" product, which may be reasonable. The competitiveness of the Asian Dragon in terms of driving quality may refresh users’ awareness of B-class cars. (Author: Feng Cool)
