Counterfeiter Wang Hai posted a post questioning the official response of Dalian in the investigation process of "100 acres of cherry tree death"

  Dalian, China, November 14 (Reporter Wang Song) On the 13th, professional counterfeiter Wang Hai posted on the Internet that since 2020, hundreds of acres of cherry trees have died after farmers used the cherry plant protection scheme of Dalian Dianlong Company; The post questioned the relevant investigation and disposal process of Dalian Agricultural and Rural Bureau. On the 14th, Dalian Agriculture and Rural Bureau answered the questions raised in Wang Hai’s release.

  What Wang Hai posted on the Internet (screenshot)

  Question 1: Excuse me, Director Xing Fang of Dalian Agriculture and Rural Bureau, why didn’t the special class set up by your bureau to deal with the death of cherry trees investigate the phytotoxicity of Dalian Dianlong Company?

  In March, 2023, Dalian Special Class for Handling the Death of Cherry Tree in Wafangdian went deep into wafangdian city Dianlong Company, the involved enterprise, and investigated and verified 23 kinds of pesticides and 8 kinds of fertilizers sold since January 1, 2021 by consulting the sales ledger, checking the quality inspection report and taking samples for identification, and entrusted a third party to identify the quality of 15 kinds of pesticides in stock, and traced the quality inspection report of 8 kinds of pesticides and 8 kinds of fertilizers out of stock to the manufacturer. Judging from the inspection report and appraisal results, no quality problems have been found in the above pesticides and fertilizers sold by Dianlong Company.

  On March 29th of the same year, the working class organized 7 experts from Northwest A&F University, Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forestry, Shandong Academy of Agricultural Sciences and other units to form an expert group, and went to relevant orchards to carry out on-site investigation, guide sampling and expert judgment (a total of 5 orchards). In response to the problem of "copper ion phytotoxicity" reflected by the whistleblower, according to the expert’s suggestion, the city sent the sampling samples to the Environmental Quality Supervision, Inspection and Testing Center of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs (Tianjin) for testing the total copper and glyphosate content (pesticide residues). On May 6, 2023, the expert group made a comprehensive judgment. According to the field investigation, identification test and test report, the conclusion was given: the main cause of the damage symptoms of cherry tree branches, roots and trunk bark was caused by fungal diseases.

  Question 2: Since 2020, farmers have used the cherries of Dalian Dianlong Company to solve the plant protection scheme, and hundreds of acres of cherry trees have died one after another. You didn’t go to the scene investigation the first time you received the report, and didn’t set up a special work class until this year. Is there anything strange in this?

  According to the working rules, after receiving the report, the relevant departments of the territory are responsible for the investigation. The incident occurred in September, 2022, and its territory was wafangdian city. The relevant departments of wafangdian city will deal with it as soon as possible according to the law. First, on October 11, 2022, wafangdian city Agriculture and Rural Bureau filed an investigation on Dianlong Company’s alleged unauthorized modification of two kinds of fertilizer labels, and finally imposed an administrative penalty of 20,000 yuan. The work class carefully checked the relevant files. The main facts of the case were clear, the evidence was conclusive, the law was accurately applied, and the law enforcement procedure was legal. Wafangdian city Municipal Market Supervision Bureau received five complaints from informants about Dianlong Company on September 2, September 15 and October 20, 2022, and all of them responded within the prescribed time limit.

  In order to verify and supervise the territorial work, the Dalian Municipal Government set up a special work class in March 2023, and went deep into wafangdian city to carry out a 9-day investigation and verification work, forming a work report and reporting it to the Dalian Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. After that, it was reported to the Liaoning Provincial Party Committee and the provincial government in the form of documents of the municipal party committee and the municipal government.

  Question 3: This special class has not been publicized, and it has not been declared whether it has an interest in the investigated object, no instruments and equipment, no appraisal qualification, and no opinions from farmers. What makes it clear that the cherry tree died of fungal infection?

  According to the requirements of the Regulations on the Openness of Government Information in People’s Republic of China (PRC), "the internal affairs information of administrative organs, including personnel management, logistics management, internal workflow and other aspects, may not be disclosed". The work class is a temporary organization for government agencies to handle internal work. Members are all staff of relevant departments, and there is no need for publicity as required. The relevant experts hired are authoritative experts in China, and the relevant testing institutions entrusted are qualified. During the investigation, the working class visited relevant farmers and enterprises, and the expert group hired was based on the on-site investigation, appraisal test and test report.

  Question 4: After filming the forehead, the special class only took samples from cherry trees that had been dead for one or two years, and also entrusted fruit trees without appraisal qualification to do experiments on whether fungi could cause the death of living trees. When entrusting, the disease is used to set the tone first, misleading the fruit trees to draw the wrong conclusion that they are not qualified at all. The bacteria in the corpse can kill people, which proves that this person was killed by bacteria? No matter how you die, it is common sense that all kinds of bacteria that cause death may be detected on rotting corpses. Is this experiment meaningful?

  On March 29th, 2023, the municipal work special class organized an expert group to carry out an on-site investigation on the death of cherry trees. The expert group learned about the symptoms of cherry trees on the spot with growers, and guided the on-site sampling of damaged branches, roots, trunk bark and rhizosphere soil of cherry trees in orchards. After the on-site investigation, the expert group held the first working meeting, and then sent the samples to the Environmental Quality Supervision, Inspection and Testing Center of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs (Tianjin) for detection of total copper and glyphosate, and the Fruit Research Institute of China Academy of Agricultural Sciences (Xingcheng, Liaoning) for detection of pathogenic bacteria. Among them, the Environmental Quality Supervision, Inspection and Testing Center of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs (Tianjin) is a ministerial-level professional quality inspection center in the field of agricultural eco-environment. In 2017, it became the first batch of national agricultural testing benchmark laboratories (pesticide residues), and the Fruit Research Institute of China Academy of Agricultural Sciences is a national scientific research institution, not a fruit research institute without appraisal qualification. After the two testing units respectively issued the Experimental Report on Pathogen Isolation and Identification of Cherry Samples in wafangdian city, Dalian and the Test Report (NO.KY030-2023), on May 6th, the municipal work class organized the expert group to hold another meeting. Based on the inspection and test report, the expert group focused on discussion, consulted the literature and standards, and obtained the comprehensive judgment opinions of experts.

  Question 5: The death of these cherry trees is characterized by yellowing and shedding of leaves, which is not a symptom of fungal infection at all. Why didn’t the special class investigate the problem of drug injury? Afraid of what?

  After the on-the-spot investigation on March 29th, 2023, the expert group held the first working meeting of judgment, and sorted out the main symptoms found in the on-the-spot investigation as follows: the symptoms of branch withered; The damaged parts of the trunk show partial cuticle cracking, ulcer, rot and gumming, which may cause the whole tree to die in severe cases. Some plants showed symptoms of bolting, and a few plants showed symptoms of neck rot. According to the symptoms, the main causes are infectious diseases and non-infectious diseases. In order to further analyze the reasons, the expert group suggested that the sampled samples should be subjected to disease identification and pesticide residue determination, and finally the "Experimental Report on Pathogen Isolation and Identification of Cherry Samples in wafangdian city, Dalian" and "Test Report (NO.KY030-2023)" were formed, and the expert group gave judgment opinions according to the identification results.

Chery is driven by innovation to meet users’ more beautiful travel needs.

Chery achieved contrarian growth, thanks to the fact that in recent years, Chery has jumped out of the thinking shackles of "science and technology men", improved the innovation ability of enterprises in science and technology and brand management, and improved its competitiveness in domestic and foreign markets.

Kunpeng DHT is super mixed, and technology empowers the power.

For car companies, the engine is called the heart of the car. With it, a car has the motivation to move forward, and car companies have their own competitiveness. From 1999, the first generation ACTECO series engine was completely independently designed and assembled, and in 2021, Kunpeng Power System with "all-field professional power solution" was launched. Up to now, the global sales volume of Chery engines has exceeded 9 million units, and a total of 9 engines have won the title of "Top Ten Engines of China Heart".

In fact, Chery’s powertrain products have long been more than just fuel engines. In recent years, new energy vehicles are the general trend, and as the most important step in the era of Chery 4.0, the hybrid of Chery Kunpeng DHT once again shows the leading edge of "Chery Quality".

The picture shows that on May 18th, 2021, Chery fully functional hybrid DHT rolled off the assembly line.

The picture shows Tiggo 8 PLUS Kunpeng e+

Chery has always regarded adhering to independent innovation and mastering core technologies as the foundation of establishing an enterprise and the core driving force of enterprise development. Kunpeng DHT super hybrid technology represents Chery’s persistence and persistence in technology. It is understood that Kunpeng DHT Super Power realizes a hybrid architecture driven by dual motors, with more explosive power, more obvious speed-up effect and more stable power output. It can realize nine high-efficiency working modes, such as single/double motor drive, extended range, parallel connection, direct engine drive, single/double motor energy recovery and driving/parking charging, and has the largest number of 11 combined gears in the world, which can quickly adapt to complex and changeable working environment and meet the multi-scene needs of users. As the first model equipped with this hybrid technology, the order of the Tiggo 8 PLUS Kunpeng e+ has risen strongly since the pre-sale, adding "Kunpeng Power" to the Tiggo 8 series, which is enough to be regarded as a dark horse in the hybrid market. The improvement of sales volume and word of mouth does not come out of thin air, but all comes from the confidence and confidence of Chery, a science and technology man.

Product iterative upgrade, big single product strategy re-strength.

In this consumption environment dominated by young people, excellent product strength and diversified product matrix are the heavy foundation to support user consumption. In this regard, Chery is quite sincere. Chery’s new car layout has not slowed down, and it also has bright spots in product renewal and upgrading, providing consumers with diversified choices.

Tiggo 8 series, the star model under the strategy of "big single product", has maintained a hot sales trend by continuously launching highly competitive upgraded models. From January to May, Tiggo 8 series contributed 62,439 global sales, up 4.7% year-on-year, effectively driving Chery automobile brand upward.

Flowers bloom inside the wall and smell sweet outside. Through the adaptive development of "adapting to local conditions" overseas to meet the diversified and quality travel needs of users, the Tiggo 8 series has also gained the "global love" of domestic and foreign consumers and become a "global car" that sells well at home and abroad. Data show that the Tiggo 8 series exported 17,587 vehicles from January to May, up 21.8% year-on-year. In some overseas countries, Chery products, represented by Tiggo 8, are also used as state-level reception vehicles, which shows the quality and strength of China brand. It is believed that the launch of hybrid new benchmark Tiggo 8 PLUS Kunpeng e+ and Tiggo 8 PRO, which focuses on young people, will add "Kunpeng power" to the Tiggo 8 series and help Chery Automobile to open a new championship era in the auto market in 2022.

The picture shows that on April 26th, 2022, the 500,000th vehicle of the Tiggo 8 series rolled off the assembly line.

If the Tiggo 8 series is the cornerstone of stable sales, then as another brand-new model in Chery’s "big single product strategy", OMODA 5 Oumengda will be another masterpiece to open up the younger market at home and abroad. It can be seen from the naming method that Ou Mengda is the first step for Chery to jump out of the thinking of science and engineering men. Compared with other models of Chery, Oumengda’s overall style is obviously more fashionable and bold. Whether it is a borderless net, slender headlights or a coupe-like side shape, it has changed the impression given by Chery SUV in the past and is more in line with the aesthetics of young users.

The tide running SUV Ou Mengda and the champion family Tiggo 8 series SUV are working together, and Chery has achieved comprehensive coverage of their respective market segments through this combination of boxing. Under the technical endorsement of "Science and Technology Man", while improving the product matrix, Chery also invested in a perceptual knowledge of young consumers’ in-depth insight, linking user needs with driving scenarios. Under this kind of thinking, it is reasonable to get more choices from consumers, and Chery in the future will definitely be more favored by young consumers.

Go deep into users’ minds and convey brand new connotation.

In the current automobile market, the younger development of consumer groups has become the general trend. When automobile brands carry out younger marketing in succession, new problems also arise. How to find a balance between "young expression" and "brand temperament" and start the journey of brand rejuvenation?

Can last forever in the market competition, it depends on the continuous surge and evolution of enterprises. In the era of brand rejuvenation, Chery’s solution is to stay on the surface, return to the concern of "people", communicate with them on an equal footing as friends, go deep into the spiritual world of the younger generation and truly reach the hearts of young people.

Based on the brand-new demand of brand communication in the digital age, Chery listens to users’ voices from multiple dimensions, such as service, marketing and brand ecological construction, and continues to provide users with a brand experience that exceeds expectations. Through product innovation and communication mode innovation, it goes deep into users’ minds and conveys the brand-new brand concept of "user-centered" of science and engineering men.

To this end, based on the insight into new consumer groups and new marketing forms, Chery has strengthened the "virtual" and "real" consideration of brands and users, and built online interactive IP including "Technology Zero Distance-Online Live Class" and "Truth Lab". On the other hand, continue to do the offline experience through innovative marketing activities such as "scenery in the mirror" and "enjoying the growth plan". In this alternate link between reality and virtual, Chery’s focus on users is not a direct output of interest value, but through communication and interaction with users, it conveys a younger, more scientific and dynamic brand image and realizes soft "planting grass" in a subtle way.

Under the interweaving interpretation of traditional lifestyle and new consumption proposition, Chery has been developing, and since 2020, it has actively explored new online marketing models, focusing on marketing innovations including e-commerce platform operation, online live broadcast and big data mining. For example, in May 2022, with the launch of the new Tiggo 8 PRO car, Chery Automobile joined forces with major network platforms, such as short video platforms Aauto Quicker and Tik Tok, e-commerce platforms JD.COM and Tmall, and 12+ APPs to create a live broadcast event of the car listing, and once again created a case of brand innovation marketing. The message of a Chery owner under the official blog was touching. "As an old owner, I was deeply moved by watching the whole live broadcast. Once upon a time, Chery, who was impressed by many people as’ only burying his head in making cars’, is not the same in terms of product quality or marketing innovation. It is hard for people not to love such Chery and make firm choices."

In terms of brand marketing strategy, in recent years, Chery has made a brand-new practice under the brand rejuvenation strategy, that is, setting up "personal design" for different models. If OMODA, which will be listed soon, represents young people who dare to speak and do, are fearless and constantly challenge themselves. Then the Tiggo 8 PRO, which was newly listed in May, is a representative of young people who are calm, confident, advocating technology and keen to explore. They are performance car enthusiasts and new technology fans; They are young and bold, and their eternal pursuit will make the impossible possible; They advocate high-tech, high-performance style design, and enjoy the driving pleasure brought by wisdom, civilization and technology, and these qualities and characteristics perfectly match the spiritual core of the whole Tiggo 8 family. The "people-designed" label not only strengthens the functional attributes of the product, but also perfectly fits the user characteristics and the concept of building a car, and strengthens the identity of the younger generation of car owners through emotional communication.

According to the data of China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, the sales volume of the automobile industry in May decreased by 12.6% year-on-year. Chery actively responded to various challenges and achieved contrarian growth. According to official data, Chery Automobile sold 63,978 vehicles in May, up 47.5% year-on-year, and exported 27,434 vehicles, up 41.1% year-on-year. From January to May, the cumulative sales volume was 277,838 vehicles, up 18.9% year-on-year.

What is really favored by the market is never luck. Spare no effort to invest in technology and consistently stick to it is Chery’s confidence; Strong technology-enabled products are Chery’s confidence; Taking users as the center and insisting on creating excellent experience for users is Chery’s intention. Chery, which has both soft and hard strength, has the power of high-energy explosion, and its sales volume and reputation naturally come naturally.

Biden signed an executive order to use federal resources to increase voters’ voting opportunities.

  BEIJING, March 8 (Xinhua) According to the US Chinese website, US President Biden signed an executive order on the 7 th to use federal resources to protect and increase the chances of voters voting. The executive order will instruct institutions to increase voters’ access to registration materials and reduce voting obstacles for certain groups, including military institutions, overseas voters, aborigines and the disabled.

  Government officials said that the executive order was aimed at directly responding to the riots in the Capitol on January 6, the allegations of fraud in the 2020 general election by former President Trump and his allies, and the subsequent restrictions on voting rights taken by multi-state legislatures.

  Biden’s executive order will encourage federal agencies to use websites and social media platforms to share information about voter registration and promote the application of mailing votes in the course of regular services.

  The order also aims to transform Vote.gov, an official voter registration website run by the federal government, to improve accessibility and user experience.

  The rest of the order will focus on strengthening the participation of specific groups facing voting obstacles. For example, the order will instruct the Attorney General to establish regulations to provide educational materials about voting for eligible voters under the jurisdiction of the Federal Prison Service.

  The order will also establish a steering group for indigenous voting rights.

  But Biden’s measures to improve voting channels will not replace state laws, because elections are managed by state and local officials. After the surge in postal votes during the epidemic, Republican-controlled States moved quickly to restrict postal votes.

  Up to now, 43 States have proposed more than 250 bills seeking to restrict voting channels. Swing states Georgia and Arizona have passed initiatives to limit absentee ballots and early voting.

  On the other hand, congressional Democrats also began to take reform measures to strengthen voting rights.

  The House of Representatives previously passed a bill requiring states to provide the option of mailing ballots, and to open early voting at least 15 days before the election day, and to create online and on-day voter registration. The bill also calls for the establishment of an independent commission to divide congressional districts, so as to stop the private and improper division of constituencies for one party.

  But Republicans have United against the bill, and if all Democrats in the Senate vote for it, it will take at least 10 Republican senators to pass it. Biden has urged the Senate to pass the bill.

Behind the United States’ fueling the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is selfish interest calculation. Julio Rios, a Spanish expert on international issues, pointed out that "the United States is

  Core reading

  The U.S. government continues to fire the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. At the same time, the share prices of major U.S. military enterprises have risen sharply. The United States’ practice of watching the fire from across the bank, harvesting wealth by creating conflicts and provoking wars has aroused widespread doubts and dissatisfaction in the international community.

  The State Council recently announced a series of measures to help Ukraine, including providing diplomatic support, financial assistance and selling arms. International public opinion generally believes that the American government deliberately incites war and adds fuel to the fire, with the aim of prolonging the Russian-Ukrainian conflict and seeking its own geostrategic interests. US government officials, military industrial enterprises and members of Congress get what they need, and earn "a lot of money".

  Franklin Spinney, a former official of the US Department of Defense, pointed out that the US military-industrial complex should be responsible for the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, because the business model of the military-industrial complex and its lobbying activities are one of the important reasons for NATO’s repeated eastward expansion after the Cold War.

  Eric sperling, Executive Director of Fair Foreign Policy, an American anti-war organization — —

  The U.S. military-industrial complex exported a large number of weapons to Ukraine and other regions, and profited greatly from the Ukrainian crisis. The military giant is an important behind-the-scenes pusher of American belligerence.

  Many congressmen, mainstream media and senior government officials in the United States are closely related to the US military-industrial complex. Military enterprises signed huge military contracts with the support of parliamentarians and senior officials; Members of parliament receive campaign funds provided by military enterprises, and some senior officials serve as executives in military giants before or after they leave office. The data shows that the US military-industrial complex is making huge profits from the escalation of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. The share prices of related companies soared, the defense budgets of the United States and European countries continued to increase, and the military giants successfully concocted the opportunity of "bloody war wealth".

  The New York Times reported that the United States provided Ukraine with nearly 17,000 Stinger anti-aircraft missiles and Javelin anti-tank missiles within one week after the start of the Russian-Ukrainian war. The US Business Insider website reported that at least 19 US congressmen or their spouses hold shares in arms companies that manufacture Stinger and Javelin missiles, especially Raytheon and Lockheed Martin. In the context of the ongoing crisis, it is expected that the two arms dealers will make huge profits of up to billions of dollars. As of April 21st, the closing price shows that within one month since Russia launched the special military operation in Ukraine, the shares of Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and Raytheon rose by 25.6%, 24% and nearly 15% respectively.

  "Warmongers are encouraging a new cold war with Russia … … This is in their interest to put trillions of dollars into the pockets of the military-industrial complex. " Former US Congressman Gabbard pointed out that "let Russia attack Ukraine", the US military-industrial complex will benefit from it, "the military-industrial complex will be better than them and ‘ Base ’ Organizing operations will earn much more. "

  Spinney wrote a few days ago that the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is a "foreseeable consequence" of NATO’s eastward expansion. War is a very bad thing. However, "since the outbreak of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the Pentagon, K Street (the gathering place of lobbying companies in Washington, DC), military enterprises and the entire Capitol are quietly opening champagne to celebrate." The world will pay for this for a long time. American interest groups justify the huge defense expenditure by increasing tension, inciting politics of fear of Russia and "demonizing" means, and promote the increase of arms expenditure.

  American arms companies spend a lot of money on political lobbying. According to the data of the "Open Secret" website, in 2021, Raytheon spent about $15.4 million on federal lobbying activities, while Lockheed Martin spent more than $14.4 million. Eric sperling, executive director of just foreign policy, an American anti-war organization, said that the US military-industrial complex exported a large number of weapons to Ukraine and other regions and benefited greatly from the Ukrainian crisis. The military giant is an important driving force behind America’s belligerence.

  Comments on the website of People’s World in the United States point out — —

  The Russian-Ukrainian conflict may be right in the heart of major oil and gas companies in the United States and other western countries. These companies hope that the war will bring them huge new profit opportunities.

  By provoking the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the United States has caused the global energy market price to skyrocket, and American oil and gas companies have earned a lot from the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.

  The US "People’s World" website commented that the Russian-Ukrainian conflict may be in the middle of the major oil and gas companies in the United States and other western countries. These companies hope that the war will bring them huge new profit opportunities. At present, multinational oil and gas monopolies such as ExxonMobil, Shell and BP, as well as related networks of drilling and transportation companies, are all trying to seize Russia’s oil and gas export share.

  Before the Russian-Ukrainian conflict broke out, Frank Macchiarola, an official of the American Petroleum Association, announced that American oil and gas producers could help fill any production gap caused by the Ukrainian war. He admitted that before the conflict, American oil and gas companies could not compete with Russian energy companies at all.

  Reuters reported that after the outbreak of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the EU set the goal of reducing its dependence on Russian natural gas by two thirds this year and ending all Russian fossil fuel imports by 2027. In late March, the United States and the European Union announced that the United States would provide an additional 15 billion cubic meters of liquefied natural gas to the European Union this year.

  On the one hand, the United States requires EU countries to stop importing Russian oil; on the other hand, it is silently increasing its imports. According to us energy information administration’s data, from March 19th to 25th, the United States imported 43% more oil from Russia than the previous week, reaching 100,000 barrels per day.

  "For western energy giants, this geopolitical earthquake may mean a huge profit premium." The US People’s World website commented that "the oil and gas giants won and we all lost", and the global oil price once hit a new high in 14 years. Americans will pay more at gas stations and convenience stores, while public funds will be used for arms instead of social needs.

  Many American politicians also benefited from the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Egyptian writer Khalil anany described some American politicians as "war brokers". He said: "It is in the interests of these politicians to provoke war rather than stop it, so as to ensure the sustainability of their profits and the increase of returns in bank accounts." "Business Insider" website reported that many US congressmen, including John rutherford and marjorie Green, bought shares of Raytheon and Lockheed Martin before the conflict broke out. Senator john hickenlooper has long held shares in Raytheon.

  A commentary on India’s TFI Global News Network said that it is "shameless" for so many US congressmen to have commercial interests in the defense industry, which has helped them make a lot of money. "For US congressmen, in the contest between morality and money, the latter is always the winner."

  Peter Kuznik, Professor of History at American University — —

  Inciting the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is a big business for the United States, and its foreign policy-making has been kidnapped to a great extent by the military industrial group.

  Sputnik news agency & radio’s article analyzes that the US is increasing its military assistance to Ukraine in the hope that Ukraine will continue to fight. The longer the situation lasts, the more strategic and economic benefits the US can maximize.

  Turkish writer and political scientist Suleiman Seyfi Eryun wrote recently that the Russian-Ukrainian conflict has injected vitality into American military enterprises, and the soaring oil and gas prices have brought more income to American energy companies, so the United States does not want the war to end.

  Peter Kuznik, a professor of history at American University in the United States, hit the nail on the head and pointed out that provoking the Russian-Ukrainian conflict is a big business for the United States, and its foreign decision-making has been kidnapped to a great extent by the military industrial group. "The logic of war wealth permeated with blood has become an incurable disease in the United States."

  American media reported that there are more than 4,000 lobbying groups of the military-industrial complex active in American politics. The military-industrial complex not only has the ability to ensure that its own interests are not affected by the change of government, but also can often prevent government decisions that want to touch its cake, even if these decisions are in the public interest. American Magazine reported that the United States spends far more on military affairs than any other country, and every year it stirs up conflicts around the world in order to export weapons worth tens of billions of dollars. The conflict between Russia and Ukraine will increase the defense budget of NATO member countries and bring huge business opportunities to US military industrial enterprises. The budget provided by the United States for the Ministry of National Defense in fiscal year 2023 also increased by 4%.

  Spinney pointed out that the Pentagon’s "budget maximization strategy" has made the US political economy more dependent on defense expenditure. Former US President Eisenhower realized this "grotesque distortion" in 1961. He once said that the emergence of a powerful military-industrial complex may one day threaten American democracy itself.

  "More and more wealth continues to flow to large companies such as Boeing, Raytheon and Lockheed Martin, and these companies are happy to hire retired American generals as board members." William Astor, a retired Lieutenant Colonel of the US Air Force, criticized that the US government has a consistent practice of military Keynesianism, that is, providing jobs and wealth for a relatively few people at the expense of the interests of the majority. Astor pointed out that over the past 60 years, the United States has wantonly used weapons against people who can’t fight back with the same weapons, while the US military-industrial complex has made huge profits from it. The U.S. government keeps lying and lacks accountability for military failures, and important government or military officials basically never take responsibility. The war launched by the United States caused great damage in the world, but the life of American workers failed to improve.

  Julio Rios, a Spanish expert on international issues, pointed out: "Washington is the biggest winner of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. The United States is setting someone else’s fire, accounting for its own account, and playing ‘ Many birds with one stone ’ Small abacus. "

As a joint venture veteran, who is more suitable for you than Nissan Sylphy?

Volkswagen and Nissan, as two popular compact cars, occupy a considerable position in the market. However, after in-depth comparison, it is not difficult to find that there are some differences between the two cars. Next, this paper will analyze in detail who is more cost-effective from multiple dimensions.

First of all, from the design point of view, LaVida and Sylphy are both classic and dignified products, focusing on an all-age adaptation. Of course, for young people, both of them are not very trendy, mainly highlighting a stable and stable. The interior is the same. The interior of the two is neither luxurious nor technological, but it is very practical and convenient, and it is also suitable for blind operation. It is still a stable orientation.However, from the perspective of space, LaVida is a little more spacious, and comfort is the specialty of LaVida, which is much better than LaVida. However, many people say that Sylphy’s seat is too soft and comfortable for a short time, but there is no sense of package and support after sitting for a long time, which makes people feel a bit contradictory.

In terms of chassis, both of them adopt McPherson+torsion beam structure, which is very common in the same class products, which is considered as reactive power, and can’t be compared with the multi-link rear suspension of many independent models. In terms of chassis adjustment, the two cars show completely different temperament, LaVida is full of toughness and sporty feeling, at least in this price range, it is a product with good control, and the effect of filtering vibration is not bad, belonging to a stable and comfortable model. Sylphy is softer than LaVida, and it is a completely comfortable product. As for the control, it can’t be said that there is nothing at all, but it is almost the same as nothing.

As for the power, LaVida is equipped with a low 1.5L natural inhalation and a high 1.5T dry dual clutch. It is not tiring to work with high and low, and this 1.5T combination is really perfect. Those problems are basically gone before. Of course, if the budget is not enough, the power of 1.5L self-priming is really a bit meaty and can only be endured. Sylphy, the fuel version of 1.6L self-priming +CVT is familiar to everyone, and the fuel-saving model +12 seconds Buddha system breaks 100. There is also an electric drive version equipped with a gasoline engine and a motor with considerable torque, which is fuel-efficient and strong. It can be said that it is the best choice for the network car, and it feels good at home. The specific principle is not developed here, which is more complicated. In short, the gasoline engine mainly generates electricity, and then the vehicle is driven by electricity.

In terms of technology configuration, LaVida is slightly higher as a whole, but both sides actually don’t pay much attention to the sense of technology, and the height is not much higher. The main reason is that the high-end models have more intelligent driving related equipment such as adaptive cruise, and the whole is a combination of practical schools.

On the whole, the comprehensive configuration of the Sylphy electric drive version is relatively cost-effective, followed by LaVida. The low allocation of both parties is very simple, mainly for commercial purposes and unit cars, and the home is a bit too stretched.

All in all, in our opinion, the comprehensive cost performance of Sylphy electric drive version is the highest, and it is good to start and stop without endurance anxiety, that is, the price is a bit high, and the top match can be bought. If only the fuel version is considered, the cost performance of LaVida is obviously higher than that of Sylphy, especially the driving experience and configuration of the 1.5T version are very good, and the discount is also very beautiful. However, if you are a drip driver, then Sylphy is definitely more suitable. After all, it is fuel-efficient, comfortable and cheap.

After 12 years of quality precipitation, the monthly sales of the third-generation Yidong PLUS broke the C-position choice of Wancheng sedan.

In the traffic boom of Guangzhou Auto Show in 2024, Changan’s third-generation PLUS once again became the focus of the compact family car market with its strong product strength and affordable price. Today, we comprehensively interpret the charm of this car from three dimensions: intelligent configuration, dynamic performance and safety guarantee.

The first is the new experience brought by technological empowerment. The third-generation Yidong PLUS is equipped with the largest size dual intelligent large screen in its class, and the combination of 13.2-inch vertical central control screen and 10.25-inch LCD instrument screen brings a more intuitive and efficient operation experience. Whether it is real-time display of vehicle status or smooth touch response, these two large screens provide excellent visual enjoyment for drivers. The whole system comes standard with AI Super Brain Ann. This intelligent system not only responds quickly, but also has learning ability. From voice command navigation to air conditioning adjustment to music playing, drivers can easily complete a series of operations just by moving their mouths. What is even more surprising is that Xiao An can also answer small questions in daily life, such as weather query and road condition recommendation, so that driving is no longer just driving, but an intelligent interactive experience full of fun. This kind of technology configuration, looking at the family car market within 100,000 yuan, has almost no rivals.

In terms of power performance, the third-generation Yidong PLUS also showed excellent comprehensive strength. Equipped with Blue Whale’s new NE1.5T high-pressure direct injection engine and 7DCT wet powershift, this high-efficiency power combination enables it to be comfortable whether commuting in the city or driving at high speed. The maximum power of 125kW and the peak torque of 260N·m not only make the vehicle start quickly, but also overtake more calmly. What is even more amazing is that under such strong power, its WLTC comprehensive fuel consumption is only 6.14L/100km, which realizes the perfect balance between performance and fuel economy and saves consumers the long-term car cost.

For a family car for family users, safety is always the key point that cannot be ignored. The third-generation Yidong PLUS comes standard with the ark cage safety body, which is made of more than 70% high-strength steel, and its body rigidity and collision protection performance have reached the leading level in the industry. No matter in the face of complex road conditions or unexpected accidents, this car can provide reliable security for car owners and their families. At the same time, the addition of the intelligent safety alarm system has also added a peace of mind for drivers, so that every trip has an invisible guardian.

As the crystallization of Changan Automobile’s 40-year-old car, Yidong series has won the trust of 1.7 million users since its launch. Such a user base is not only a glory, but also the best endorsement of its quality. At this year’s Guangzhou Auto Show, from now on-November 30th, 2024, the third-generation Yidong PLUS will push the gratitude price from 70,900 yuan for a limited time, give 1000 yuan a special gratitude red envelope for a limited time, and grab another year’s compulsory insurance for a limited time (please ask the local dealer in detail), so that consumers can own this high-quality family car at a price of less than 80,000 yuan. Whether it’s a young man who buys a car for the first time or a consumer who needs to take care of his family, this car can provide a car experience that exceeds expectations.

Why can the third generation Yidong PLUS become the C-choice in the sedan market? It subverts the traditional driving experience with intelligent technology, sets a new benchmark for the performance of family cars with blue whale power, guards the peace of mind of every trip with the safe body of the ark cage, and at the same time opens a new door for high-quality cars at a price close to the people. If you are still hesitating to buy a car at the end of the year, this car will undoubtedly be your wisest choice.

Are the intelligent disputes between Extreme Yue 01 Huan and Aouita 07 ahead of the times?

At present, automobile intelligence has become a battleground for all automobile enterprises and military strategists. Whether it is technical reserve or practical technology applied to products, it has become an important factor to determine the market acceptance of products. China car companies also use this corner to overtake, and together with the power and new energy, they have achieved the status of "middle-class" cars in the global market. In terms of vehicle intelligence, let’s take the benchmark models in this respect to understand the level of vehicle intelligence in China. These two models are Huanxin and Huanxin respectively.

ah1731594551176_edit_272281097348213On the design level, Extreme Yue 01 and Aouita 07 are both benchmarks in the automotive design field. Extreme Yue 01 is designed with details acceptable to most consumers, showing the understanding of extreme Yue automobile on fashion and sports. And Aouita 07 is also a "good heart" in the hearts of fashion people, but there are different views in the market only on the acceptance of appearance. In contrast, the ultra-Yue 01 uses a "T" headlight group, a dive body and a rear sliding back design, which makes it more widely accepted in the market.

Aouita Interior 1In terms of intelligence, as a benchmark model in the market, both of them have bright performances. Among them, the most easy to experience intelligence is the sense of science and technology, and the most intuitive embodiment of the sense of science and technology is the interface of human-computer interaction. Extreme Yue 01 uses a 35.6-inch 3D unbounded integrated large screen, which makes its scientific and technological atmosphere easily reflected. Of course, the science and technology experienced by visual senses can only be like goods if there is no "connotation". First of all, Extreme Yue 01 Huan’s new 3D unbounded integrated large screen has a resolution of 6k, a color gamut of 95%NTSC, and the blessing of ROBO matrix dimming technology, which has a good display effect and eye protection ability.

It embodies intelligence, and of course it also includes intelligent driving assistance system. And the intelligent driving assistance system is definitely not a publicity stunt, but an important supplement to driving safety. Extreme Yue 01 Huan’s new model is equipped with ASD Apollo high-order intelligent driving based on Baidu Apollo L4 autopilot. This system and Tesla’s intelligent driving are both visual perception solutions. There are also two flagship NVIDIA Orin-X intelligent driving chips on the hardware, which can achieve the navigation-level intelligent driving assistance capability including highway sections and urban sections at the highest level. In this respect, Extreme Vietnam 01 is indeed in the forefront, and it has also been verified by the "Rapunzel Run" in various cities.

In terms of power performance, the maximum power of the driving motor of the entry-level model of Extreme Yue 01 is 200kw, the peak torque is 343N.m, and the zero-hundred-acceleration time is enough for home use, reaching 7.2 seconds. The maximum power of the front and rear dual motors of the four-wheel drive model is 400kw, the torque is 686N.m, and the acceleration time is only 3.8s s.. Aouita 07 pure electric version has a motor power of 252kw and a torque of 365N.m, and has a stronger power system, which also reduces its acceleration time to 6.3 seconds.

Summary:By comparison, the new version of Extreme Yue 01 Huan and the pure electric version of Aouita 07 have their own advantages. However, in combination with the current official preferential strength of Extreme Yue 01, the price/performance ratio is still quite high. Therefore, when the vehicle is intelligent, the benefits of the new 01 Huan are obvious to all.

Analysis of New Engine Technology —— Variable Art of Valve

  When it comes to engines, as a car owner or prospective car owner, you must be very confident that you know such things very well. However, when many people pick up the brochures of automobile manufacturers or face some professional words in automobile advertisements, their heads will still feel short-circuited. This is actually not surprising. In today’s automobile marketing, many manufacturers like to use technical marketing to enhance the gold content of their brands or models. When we carefully explore these technologies, we will be very surprised to find that they are not so profound.



Structure diagram of Mercedes-Benz CGI direct injection technology


  Looking back at the development process of the engine, the automobile engine has undergone a gradual evolution from in-line to W-type, during which various structures such as horizontal opposition and V-type have also been derived. The number of cylinders has also developed from the initial single cylinder to 16 cylinders now; Gasoline engine also experienced the transition from carburetor era to EFI era; With the development of the times, the valve structure inside the cylinder has gradually developed from the previous two-valve structure to the present multi-valve structure. Here, we can’t give you an introduction to the development of the engine one by one. Looking back at these trivial events, we can already feel that the engine has changed very obviously in just over 100 years.



SLR’s 5.5L supercharged engine was tested on a dynamometer.


  Although the progress is obvious, due to the pressure of energy and environment and in order to meet the higher and stronger power demand of consumers, the research on engines by major manufacturers is still in progress. Improving fuel economy and power is still the trend of engine technology development today. When analyzing modern engine technology, we can see that all technologies have been linked with electronic control. For example, variable valve technology has become the standard equipment of almost all engines, even in the aspect of variable valve technology, there are advantages and disadvantages, but its high popularity also confirms the positive role of this technology from one aspect. Gasoline engines are gradually introducing direct injection technology. Due to its positive impact on fuel efficiency and emissions, major manufacturers have now taken this technology as the highlight of the future development of gasoline engines. Look at the supercharging technology, although the development of this engine technology has a long history, but because it can help the engine to make a qualitative leap in power, we can still see that this technology is widely used in some high-performance vehicles today, and even abroad it has become one of the ways for some car refitters to improve vehicle performance.



In order to reduce the longitudinal length, BMW installed the twin turbines of V8 engine in the middle of the included angle of V-shaped cylinder.


  As consumers, sometimes they don’t have to pay attention to the specific development process of engines, but when purchasing vehicles, these developing technologies will inevitably become obstacles to understanding vehicles in detail. There are at least 10 names for variable valve technology of engines, such as VTEC, VVT-i, CVVT, etc. Direct injection technology also has different names similar to FSI, SIDI and HPI. These technologies, which belong to the same category, have been named by various manufacturers, which is indeed conducive to the brand promotion of manufacturers in the technical field, but consumers have not become beneficiaries. These technologies will more or less become obstacles for some consumers to buy, choose and love cars.


  In order to enable current car owners, prospective car owners and more car lovers to have a more intuitive understanding of these technologies of the engine, we hereby make this topic of new engine technologies. Although variable valve technology and supercharging technology are no longer new technologies, we can see that major manufacturers are still making breakthroughs in this field. Facts have also proved that the development of the engine in these two fields has also brought us many benefits, and this benefit is constantly expanding with the development of time. I hope that the short 10-page topic can help you understand these technologies more clearly and provide some support for your car selection, car purchase and car ownership. New technology is not far away from you, just waiting for you to notice it carefully.

  Variable art of valve


  Consumers can always hear or see some abbreviated English words about engine technology when listening to salesmen’s explanations or reading manufacturers’ brochures themselves. After listening to this "CVVT", I will hear "VVT-i" in another store, which is really a headache for consumers who don’t know much about cars.


  In fact, up to now, engine variable valve technology is no longer synonymous with advanced technology, because this technology has gradually spread in the automotive field. Because of its outstanding contribution to fuel economy and power, several major automobile manufacturers in the world have been involved in research and development in this field many years ago. However, various car manufacturers have different names in this respect, such as Honda i-VTEC, Toyota VVT-i, Hyundai CVVT, Mazda S-VT and so on. At present, there is not much difference in this technology among several major automakers, but there are still some differences in structure. Honda and Toyota, two Japanese companies, like to promote this technology most. Many consumers may feel at a loss in the face of these technical rankings. Looking at the following simple introductions of several technologies may make you more confident in the introduction of sales staff.



Structural diagram of BMW Valvetronic


  BMW Valvetronic and Double-VANOS


  Compared with Honda and Toyota’s high-profile publicity in this respect, BMW pays more attention to the promotion of high-end brands, so it seems to ignore its technological advantages. However, here we have to push this technology to the foreground.



Internal structure of BMW VANOS


  Valvetronic is an electronic continuous variable valve lift technology of BMW. It is worth mentioning that this technology is different from Honda’s segmented one. It transforms the axial movement of the motor into the angle change of the rocker arm through a set of worm gears, so that the valve lift can be freely and continuously variable under the control of ECU. This should be the most classic design of continuously variable valve lift so far. Although it is classic, it is often used in combination with VANOS technology. VANOS is BMW’s variable valve timing technology, and Double-VANOS is the same as Toyota’s dual VVT-i technology, which realizes continuous variable timing for the intake and exhaust of the engine. In terms of structural design, BMW’s combination of Valvetronic and Double-VANOS variable valve technology seems more convincing.


  Representative model: BMW 120i



BMW 120i, which has just entered the domestic market, has been equipped with these two technologies.


  This technology of BMW is very mature. At present, the inline 4-cylinder engines of BMW’s lowest-end 120i in China market have been equipped with Valvetronic and Double-VANOS technologies. This technology has obviously become the standard equipment of BMW engines, and then it may be the popularization of BMW HPI direct injection technology.

  Honda i-VTEC



Honda i-VTEC has different settings on different engines.


  I-VTEC is gradually upgraded from the original VTEC technology, and Honda’s application in this technology can be said to be perfect. For SOHC or DOHC inline 4-cylinder engines and SOHCV6 engines, the application methods are slightly different, but they all ensure the variable valve timing and variable valve lift technology. Honda realizes this variable process by changing the high and low speed camshafts. In order to make VTEC technology more intelligent, Honda later introduced VTC(valveoverlapcontrol) to make the variable valve timing continuously adjustable. At present, Honda’s use of i-VTEC technical terms is somewhat confusing. For example, the newly added i-VTEC technology on the new Fit L13A engine is different from that of Accord 2.4. There is no VTC technology in i-VTEC of 1.3L engine with new fit. Although SOHCV6 engine used in Accord 3.5 has VCM(VariableCylinderManagement) technology, there is no VTC technology.


  Representative model: Honda Accord 2.4L



2.4L the eighth generation accord is the mainstay of the accord car series.


  The i-VTEC equipped with the 2.4L in-line 4-cylinder DOHC engine used in Accord 2.4 is a more "orthodox" i-VTEC. This is because this i-VTEC system is a combination of VTEC technology and VTC technology, that is to say, its engine has continuous valve variable timing technology and segmented variable valve lift technology. With this system, ECU can automatically adjust the valve mechanism according to the driving condition of the vehicle, so as to meet the reasonable intake and exhaust requirements in each period and achieve good power performance and fuel economy.


  Toyota VVT-i



Toyota VVT-i has the same influence as Honda i-VTEC.


  Toyota and Honda have been secretly competing, and so have VVT-i and i-VTEC. Toyota VVT-i is developed from the original VVT, which is a continuously variable timing structure, but there is no variable valve lift technology, which is different from Honda i-VTEC. Toyota later continued to deepen this technology, and introduced the variable mechanism of exhaust end, that is, double VVT-i, on the basis of the original variable intake. In this way, the engine can use the function of intake and exhaust more effectively, and improve the power and fuel economy of the engine. In fact, Toyota does not have variable lift technology. In VVTL-i, Toyota combines VVT-i and variable valve lift technology, but the engine 2ZZ-GE equipped with this technology did not meet Euro IV emission regulations at that time, so it was not reused by Toyota.


  Representative model: Toyota Corolla 1.8L



Toyota Corolla cars have introduced dual VVT-i technology.


  Toyota Corolla 1.8 is equipped with 1.8L in-line 4-cylinder 2ZR-FE engine, which is equipped with Toyota dual VVT-i technology. The intake and exhaust parts have continuous variable valve timing mechanisms, which can effectively adjust the intake and exhaust of the engine during the whole operation. Although there is no variable lift technology, it is similar to Honda i-VTEC after adding valve timing to the exhaust part.
