The IT vertical website is trapped in the "doomsday": Zhongguancun Online seeks to sell herself.

Zhongguancun Online, an established vertical IT portal, is facing a new round of changes. After being stripped out of the system by the parent company CBSi China, there are rumors recently that JD.COM will take a stake in Zhongguancun Online, a vertical IT portal, accounting for about 35% to 42%.

It is even more reported that the introduction of JD.COM was personally operated by Liu Xiaodong, Senior Vice President of CBSi China, and Wang Lu, President of CBSi China District, was responsible for handling the separation of Zhongguancun Online from CBSi.

Tencent Technology learned from a number of authoritative sources of CBSi in China that Zhongguancun Online is indeed preparing for capital operation, but the object of Zhongguancun Online’s scandal is not JD.COM, but another family.

A person familiar with the matter said, "JD.COM once negotiated cooperation with Zhongguancun Online, but the two sides finally failed to reach an agreement."

The "doomsday" dilemma of IT vertical websites

Zhongguancun Online is stripped from CBSi and seeks external financing, which presents its current predicament. The experience of Zhongguancun Online is just a microcosm of the survival dilemma of CBSi’s original science and technology sector in China, and even the entire science and technology vertical industry.

CBS Interactive, abbreviated as CBSI, is an interactive media company under the CBS Group. In the past many years, CBSi has been developing in the form of media in China, and it has taken the form of capital acquisition to attack the city and plunder the land.

CBSi China Science and Technology Group includes Zhongguancun Online, PChome Computer House, ZDNet Zhiding Network, Hummingbird Network, Wanwei Home Appliances Network, BNET Business Talent Network, Xiyu IT Network, Sanqin IT Network and 85 sub-stations in China.

However, CBSi China made major adjustments to its business this year, and drastically divested its original technology business. Some businesses were sold, such as Zhongguancun Online, to institutions, but not to companies such as BAT and JD.COM, which are well-known in the industry.

The other part also carries out capital operation, for example, PCHOME is led by the management team. CBSi China originally had three vertical fields: automobile, science and technology and women. After this adjustment, CBSi China has withdrawn from the field of science and technology, focusing on automobile and women.

Behind CBSi China’s withdrawal from the field of science and technology lies the deep dilemma that the vertical websites of science and technology are facing at present. Electronic product manufacturers’ advertising expenditure on IT vertical websites continues to decline, and the days of many websites are not as good as before.

Relevant data show that in October 2014, the advertising expenditure on IT vertical websites of laptops and consumer appliances increased by 4% and 15% respectively, while the expenditure of mobile phone manufacturers decreased by 49% year-on-year, which was the fourth consecutive month.

Wang Lu, president of CBSi China, once said that the growth rate of IT vendors, the increase of advertising expenses and the proportion of advertising expenses invested by IT vendors in vertical sales tend to be stable, which will be even more cruel to websites like Zhongguancun Online.

This trend has already appeared. In 2011, the IT World Network was shut down. In 2012, the announcement of the closure of Zhongguancun shows the dilemma of vertical IT websites. With the advent of the mobile Internet era, the fragmentation of users’ reading and behavior has further aggravated this trend.

From purely providing information to doing e-commerce

The impact of the mobile Internet is changing users’ traditional reading habits, and it is also increasingly forcing the traditional vertical information websites to change.

The most obvious example is that Easy Car has received a total investment of about 1.3 billion US dollars from JD.COM and Tencent in the form of cash and exclusive resources; Easy Car’s subsidiary, which focuses on the Internet platform of auto finance, has received a total cash investment of US$ 250 million from JD.COM and Tencent.

In this regulation, the resources involved include JD.COM’s exclusive opening of new and used car channels of various e-commerce platforms including mobile applications for Easy Car, and other support for providing core e-commerce platforms. JD.COM provides exclusive resources of about $750 million.

Behind the transaction between JD.COM and Easy Car is the layout of car e-commerce, and both parties are prepared to turn the original pure automobile information into real automobile commodity trading behavior, and gain greater benefits from it. Car home, the rival of Easy Car, has also benefited a lot from the transformation of auto e-commerce.

Extending to the vertical IT industry, vertical IT websites forced by livelihood will also have to transform from simply providing information to trading.

Informed sources revealed to Tencent Technology that the most obvious change of Zhongguancun Online in the future will be from providing information to community interaction to future digital product trading, and e-commerce will be an important direction of Zhongguancun Online in the future.

In the future, Zhongguancun Online will develop in the direction of SNS and circle operation in the vertical IT field, and access to shopping guides. In addition, it will be relaxed at the product level, and it may be involved in more technical fields such as intelligent hardware and 3D printing.

"This is that all media advertising companies need to transform. Without transformation, the vertical IT website road will become narrower and narrower." A person familiar with the matter told Tencent Technology that Zhongguancun Online will recruit a lot of manpower after financing, which may require e-commerce operation experience.

After Chen Tong, the former editor-in-chief of Sina, joined Xiaomi, he once told Tencent Technology that hard news is becoming more and more difficult in the new media format situation, especially under the impact of social networks, which is something that all media should reflect on.

"In the early days, media positioning was mainly based on information, but now, simple information is far from enough. Besides daily news, you have to do other things, such as spreading technical information, do you have to spread knowledge and record your life?"

Chen Tong said, for some media, it is necessary to emphasize the practical function, which can help individuals. "I think this practical function may have been mentioned in the past, but it may become more and more feasible due to the arrival of the era of more precise mobile."

As for the original China management of CBSi China, Liu Xiaodong, senior vice president of CBSi China, has led a part of the team to continue to manage Zhongguancun online operation, while Wang Lu, the president of CBSi District, has left his post, and he may go to a big technology enterprise.

CBSi China issued an internal mail on January 13th, announcing the official resignation of Wang Lu, president of CBSi District. CBSi also mentioned that China market is very important and will continue to invest in China market.

However, from a series of signs, CBSi China’s interest in the vertical IT field is getting weaker and weaker, and IT is unlikely to get involved in the short term. Liu Xiaodong may be the only original management team of CBSi China to continue to struggle in the vertical IT field, and the road ahead is still difficult.

Forced to take nude photos, sit on the stage, donate eggs … Revealing the "Jiali Loan" after the bustling night.

  The "Night Economy" in Changsha, Hunan Province is booming. Wuyi Road Business Circle, Pozi Street, Gourmet Street and Jiefang West Bar Street have become the "punching places in online celebrity" for tourists from all over the country. However, behind this bustling scene, a criminal gang targets young women who work in night shows such as KTV and bars, and uses the "Jiali Loan" with "low interest, no mortgage and fast loan" as a pretext to lure loans. At the moment when they signed the "loan agreement", an elaborate criminal network was opened … …

  Ignorant girls are caught in the black hole of "Jiali Loan"

  20-year-old Xiaonan (pseudonym) works as a waiter in a KTV in Changsha. Although his income is not low, he is used to the high consumption in entertainment places. Xiaonan’s living expenses are very high and he can’t make ends meet every month. One day, Xiaonan accidentally saw a loan advertisement in WeChat circle of friends: "No mortgage, low interest, fast loan". She was worried about the rent. After several contacts, the "intermediary" took her to a boss named Wen Chen.

  Seeing that Xiaonan is young and beautiful and works in KTV, Wen Chen speaks very politely: "Borrow 10,000 yuan, interest 200 yuan a day, overdue penalty 1,000 yuan a day, and the loan period is one month." Xiaonan thought that this interest standard should be no problem with his own ability, and he signed the blank loan agreement without much thought. Unexpectedly, Wen Chen went on to say that if he borrows 10,000 yuan, he will return a "service fee" of 3,000 yuan. Seeing peony hesitated a little, Wen Chen immediately said that this was the rule of their profession, and everyone operated like this. Peony had to agree to Wen Chen’s request.

  Unexpectedly, this is not over yet. Wen Chen told Xiaonan that because she had no fixed address in Changsha, she had to take a nude photo as a guarantee. Xiaonan immediately rejected Wen Chen’s request, but Wen Chen said that the photo was just a guarantee. As long as she paid back the money on time, the photo would never be published. The "intermediary" on the side kept persuading her not to worry, so Xiaonan, who was in urgent need of money, agreed with a grain of salt.

  A month later, xiaonan was unable to repay. At this time, the fierce face of Wen Chen was revealed: "Either pay back the money, or I will send the photos to your parents for them to return." Xiaonan begged hard, and Wen Chen told Xiaonan meaningfully: "It’s okay not to send photos, but be honest and obedient."

  A few days later, Wen Chen took Xiao Nan to see a "manager Li". "If you sign the contract with Mr. Li, our account will be even, and you will listen to Mr. Li in the future." Ignorant Xiao Nan hasn’t realized that Wen Chen has "untied" her to "General Li" at a price of 40,000 yuan.

  "I don’t know why 7000 yuan will become 40000. They said that if I don’t obey, I will send my photos. I have no choice but to listen to them. I can’t run away. " After the incident, Xiaonan cried in the public security organs.

  Xiaonan’s experience is the epitome of many victims of "Jiali Loan". "Night girls use money quickly and come to money quickly. They are all afraid that their families will know that they are in this business and feel disgraced, so it is easier to control. " Liu Pingan, a member of Wenchen criminal gang, said.

  It is precisely because of the lack of social experience, earning ability and easy control of women working in night shows and KTV. Since March 2017, Wen Chen has gathered Wenwu, Liu Pingan and others to launch the so-called "Jiali Loan" for women working in night shows and KTV in various regions of Changsha. Lure the victim to borrow money under the guise of "low interest, no mortgage, fast loan", and defraud the victim’s property through a series of "routines" such as taking nude photos, inflating the loan amount, signing yin-yang contracts, and charging high interest. As of the time of the incident, the criminal gang has "lent" more than 1,100 times to more than 700 murdered women, with a loan amount of more than 10 million yuan and an illegal profit of more than 3 million yuan.

  The victim became a tool for criminals to collect money.

  "I will take you to see ‘ tonight. General manager Jiang ’ … …” The victim Xiao Fei (a pseudonym) still couldn’t help shivering when she mentioned that unbearable experience.

  In the first half of 2017, Xiaoyan borrowed 38,000 yuan from Wenchen, but the loan contract amount was as high as 85,000 yuan. Unable to bear the constant collection and harassment of Wen Chen and others, Xiao Fei began to hide from Wen Chen. Unexpectedly, "miraculous" Wen Chen "caught" her in her place of residence a few days later.

  That evening, Wen Chen, Wen Wu and others took Xiao Fei to the Xiangjiang River. Wen Chen pointed to the Xiangjiang River and said to her, "This is ‘ General manager Jiang ’ 。”

  Then Xiao Fei was forced to take off her clothes and walk towards Jiangxin. Xiao Fei was so scared that she knelt down and begged for mercy. Wen Chen and others were unmoved, while continuing to drive Xiao Fei away, while recording videos on their mobile phones. Xiao Fei, desperate, could only walk into the river until the river flooded her bust. Xiao Fei cried for help at the top of her voice, and Wen Chen and other talents asked her to return to the shore.

  After this incident, Xiao Fei never dared to resist Wen Chen again, so she could only be at his mercy. From the next day, Wen Chen and others began to force Xiao Fei to go to KTV in Changsha, Zhuzhou and other places to pay off the so-called "debt" by prostitution.

  In April 2018, Wen Chen learned that it was profitable for women to donate eggs, so she started the idea of forcing Xiaoyan to donate eggs. Soon after, Wen Chen arranged for his men to take Xiaofei to an institution in Wuhan. After several days of medication, injection and physical examination, Xiaofei took to the operating table with fear.

  "I remember the pain and humiliation of donating eggs all my life. The money I borrowed will never be clear at the end, so I can only listen to them." Xiao Fei is still unable to help herself in the inquiry.

  "For victims who don’t repay on time, Wen Chen and others mainly take two ways to collect. First, the victims and their families are forced to submit to repayment by means of violence or soft violence such as threats and intimidation, going to their hometown to visit their homes; Then there is the transfer of single accounts between the same industries, which is called ‘ Unset ’ , transfer the victim to other ‘ Jialidai ’ Gang, ‘ Unset ’ After the victim’s debt is often greatly increased. " Undertake the introduction of the prosecutor.

  In April 2018, Wen Chen, who ended compulsory detoxification, quickly returned to his old business and reconvened members of gangs such as Liu Ping ‘an, Wenwu and Liu Pengwei. On the one hand, we will continue to increase investment, and at the same time, we will set up two lending branches: "Win Wo Wealth" and "Chengxin Venture"; On the one hand, the gang members were constantly recruited, the division of labor and structure were adjusted, and the gang was divided into three groups: marketing group, bill review group and collection group, and a clear organizational discipline and salary system were formulated. The scale of gang lending was constantly expanding, and the industry influence was rising. By the time of the incident, there were 26 members of Wenchen gang.

  The criminal chain behind the interest chain

  From the second half of 2017, Wen Chen and others began to force the victims to sit in some KTV and sauna places and engage in prostitution, and provided "peripheral" services through WeChat publicity. After a long time, Wen Chen gradually became dissatisfied with this "profit" model of tinkering around the edges.

  In the second half of 2018, Wen Chen, who has been hanging out in the night show all the year round, met Ye Jing, the manager of "Yulan Team". "Feather Blue Team" is an organization that specializes in training and providing staff for large KTV and bars, and has a fixed cooperative relationship with many night shows. With the help of the resources of Ye Jing and others, Wen Chen Jianli played a stable "lending — Prostitution "criminal chain.

  On the one hand, Wen Chen forced the victims to stay in centralized accommodation, arranged special personnel to take care of them, and formulated a strict attendance system for commuting. For disobedient victims, they are punished by threats, fines, corporal punishment and other means to ensure the "absolute obedience" of the victims. On the other hand, the backbone members of the gang are arranged to be divided into groups according to films, and each group leads a certain number of victims to station in some KTV to carry out stage-sitting and prostitution activities. During the peak period, there were 20 victims under the centralized control of Wen Chen.

  In January 2019, Wen Chen met Xiao Yongle, the leader of another large-scale "Jiali Loan" criminal gang in Changsha, and cooperated with him to engage in transnational prostitution crimes.

  Electronic data becomes the breakthrough of the case.

  In March 2019, Changsha public security organs concentrated on collecting nets from Wen Chen and other "Jiali Loan" gangs, and more than 20 members of Wen Chen’s gang were all arrested and brought to justice. Under the unified leadership of Changsha City Procuratorate, Furong District Procuratorate sent three post prosecutors to form a task force to intervene and guide the public security organs to investigate in advance.

  “‘ Jialidai ’ Yes ‘ Routine loan ’ A variant of ‘, compared with ordinary & lsquo; Routine loan ’ ,‘ Jialidai ’ The crime is more concealed, and the victims are more but more mobile, so it is difficult to contact for evidence. At the same time, these gangs usually do not have a complete financial account book for lending, and the suspect’s guilty attitude is very poor, making it extremely difficult to handle the case. " According to the prosecutor, "it is difficult to find out the facts according to the conventional evidence collection methods, and we must find another way."

  In the process of early intervention, the task force found that many people involved in the case talked about WeChat contact, photos and other issues, and the task force was keenly aware that electronic data might become an important breakthrough in this case.

  But the problem followed.

  Searching for evidence in the huge electronic data is undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack. In order to sort out useful information as comprehensively and quickly as possible, the task force first instructed the public security organs to divide the electronic data into "important grades" according to the status and division of labor of each member, and then preliminarily classified and located the electronic data content based on the main crimes such as "routine loan", prostitution and triad-related crimes.

  Hard work pays off. After more than 60 days of careful combing, the task force screened out more than 30 victims who could be identified. "The public security organs quickly contacted these victims to make transcripts, and accordingly retrieved relevant WeChat and Alipay transfer records."

  These evidence materials not only enrich the evidence system of the crime of illegal lending and organizing and forcing prostitution by Wen Chen gang, but also lead to the fact that Wen Chen and others committed rape and forced indecency.

  In the stage of examination and prosecution, the task force found that some victims mentioned that they had been forced to have sex with Wen Chen and others, but Wen Chen and others denied all this, claiming that the two sides had sex "voluntarily". Due to the lack of direct evidence, the public security organs did not identify the criminal facts of rape and compulsory indecency when transferring them for examination and prosecution.

  "Most of the victims in this case were illegally treated by Wen Chen and others for a long time ‘ Control ’ Out of professional sensitivity, we believe that Wen Chen and Liu Pengwei are very likely to be involved in crimes such as rape. " The prosecutor said.

  In order to find out the facts, the task force compiled a detailed outline of evidence collection, investigated and collected evidence by itself and guided the public security organs to investigate. While continuing to talk to the people involved, we can verify whether the relevant victims have been forced into prostitution and whether there are so-called "debt forgiveness", while continuing to mine useful information from electronic data. By reinforcing the evidence materials in a targeted way, the procuratorial organ finally added the criminal facts of six rapes and two forced indecencies by Wen Chen and others.

  In the investigation stage, Liu Pingan, an important member of Wenchen Gang, has always denied participating in the criminal acts of gang organization and forced prostitution.

  "In the trial, the defendant Liu Pingan still refused to plead guilty in an attempt to escape his guilt. What he didn’t expect was that we had already prepared. " The prosecutor in charge said, "We were thinking about changing our thinking and starting with Zhang Min who cooperated with Liu Ping-an."

  Taking Zhang Min as a breakthrough, the task force decided to talk to Zhang Min many times about the WeChat contact "A Chengmei Medical" who sent girls abroad for prostitution, which was Liu Ping ‘an.

  On May 18th this year, Changsha City Procuratorate prosecuted 27 people, including Wen Chen, for allegedly organizing, leading and participating in underworld organizations, fraud, extortion, organizing and forcing prostitution, illegal detention, robbery, rape, assisting in organizing prostitution, and forcing indecency. On September 14th, Changsha Intermediate People’s Court made a first-instance judgment, and sentenced Wen Chen, the ringleader of the gang, to life imprisonment, deprivation of political rights for life, and confiscation of all property. The remaining defendants were all convicted. After the judgment of the first instance, Wen Chen and others appealed, and the case is currently being tried in the second instance.

Ministry of Industry and Information Technology: On July 1st, the new network access license sign was officially launched.

On June 29th, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the Notice of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology on Enabling and Promoting the New Network Access License Mark (hereinafter referred to as the Notice), and decided to enable and promote the new network access license mark and gradually replace the original paper mark. From July 1, 2023, the new network access license sign was officially launched. Before the end of this year, production enterprises can apply to the Telecommunications Equipment Certification Center of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology for the use of the new network access license mark, or they can continue to apply for and use the original network access license paper mark. From January 1, 2024, the new network access license sign will be fully promoted. At that time, the paper signs of the original network access license will no longer be issued, and the paper signs that have been issued before are still valid within the validity period of the network access license and can continue to be used.

It is understood that the main purpose of implementing the electronization of network access license marks is to display the network access license marks externally by means of electronic screen display of telecommunications equipment, further improve the efficiency of logo management, reshape the logo management process, help production enterprises save costs, facilitate users to accurately query logo information, and better meet the needs of market development.

For production enterprises, the new network access license mark can be generated by the enterprise itself in accordance with the relevant requirements of the Notice and added to the products by itself; Support electronic display and other presentation methods, with high flexibility; The application, production and distribution of paper marks are eliminated, which solves the problem that small equipment can not stick paper marks, which is conducive to improving the level of production automation and effectively saving labor, management and time costs for enterprises.

For the vast number of users, the new network access license sign retains the main elements and overall style of the original paper sign, which is convenient for users to know and remember; The new type of network access permission sign presented by electronic means solves the problems of easy wear and loss of paper signs in use. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology encourages production enterprises to provide users with convenient query functions such as network access permission information and consistency of sign information, so as to facilitate users to distinguish the authenticity of signs.

Tesla Model Y is priced at 239,900 yuan. What is the decision to buy a car?

The calendar in 2024 slowly turned to the last page, and the year-end sprint of the automobile market began. At this critical time, Tesla ModelY has become the center of the auto market with its unique charm and preferential measures. Today, let’s explore it together and see what’s different about this eye-catching model. And how its preferential policies at the end of the year caused waves in the auto market.

The first thing I have to mention is the sales myth of Tesla ModelY.

The cumulative sales volume from January to October this year has reached 373,000 units, which is not only impressive, but also makes ModelY sit firmly on the sales throne in the SUV market.

Tesla’s record does not rely on price wars, but on its excellent product strength and high recognition in the market.

The starting price of ModelY is over 200,000, but it can achieve such results in the extremely competitive market, which fully reflects the high recognition of consumers.

However, when ModelY’s sales showed a particularly strong development trend, Tesla unexpectedly launched preferential activities.

From November 25th to December 31st, the final payment of ModelY rear-wheel drive and long-life all-wheel drive models will be reduced by 10,000 yuan, with the price starting from 239,900 yuan, and interest-free financial loan service will be provided for an additional five years.

This policy undoubtedly adds another fire to ModelY’s hot sales and makes the already hot models more attractive.

However, the question has arisen. Is there a small idea of Tesla hidden in this preferential policy? According to market analysis, the purpose of Tesla’s move is to clean up the existing inventory and make room for the new ModelY to be launched soon. This shows that for those consumers who pursue the latest technology and have a higher rate of preservation, it may be a wiser decision to wait for the release of the new ModelY.

However, for those consumers who pursue cost performance and stability, the current ModelY is undoubtedly a good choice. Its intelligent configuration, endurance, and the standard three-electricity technology in the whole system are enough to make it stand out from competitors at the same price. Moreover, Tesla’s intelligent experience, especially the L2 assisted driving function of HW4.0, has made many car owners hooked up.

Of course, Tesla ModelY’s competitors are not to be outdone. Faced with Tesla’s price reduction strategy, Tucki Weilai Ideality and other brands have launched their own preferential policies, trying to get a slice of this year-end automobile market war. However, Tesla’s brand influence and ModelY’s product strength undoubtedly gave it more voice.

Finally, bring us back to the original question: Is it the best time to start ModelY? If you are a practical person who pays attention to cost performance, then the answer is yes. But if you are a technology fan, waiting for the release of the new ModelY may better meet your expectations. In any case, this round of preferential policies of Tesla ModelY has undoubtedly brought more changes and discussions to the automobile market at the end of the year.

In this ever-changing market, Tesla ModelY once again proved that it is the top player in the SUV market with its unique charm and preferential policies. For consumers, whether they are choosing existing styles or waiting for the new models to go on the market, ModelY is undoubtedly a noteworthy model. It must be understood that in this year-end automobile market competition, Tesla ModelY has won the love of countless consumers with its strength and sincerity.

It’s settled! What is Putin Trump’s meeting with Russia-US relations next month?

  CCTV News:Since Trump took office last year, Russia-US relations have not eased as expected, but the tension has intensified. Since March this year, the United States has gradually released information about possible meetings between the leaders of the two sides, but Russia has not made a clear statement. Until the 27th, Russia officially confirmed the news. On the 28th, Russia and the United States announced the specific time and place of the meeting.

  According to the release of Russia and the United States,The meeting between Putin and Trump will be held in Helsinki, Finland on July 16th. At that time, the two sides will exchange views on bilateral relations between Russia and the United States and other international hot issues.

  Putin: Russia-US relations are not at their best.

  In order to coordinate the leaders’ meeting, US Presidential National Security Assistant Bolton visited Russia on the 27th. When meeting with Bolton, Putin said that Russia-US relations are not at their best at present, which is largely the result of sharp political struggles in the United States. He hoped that Bolton’s visit would be a step towards a comprehensive restart of Russia-US relations.

  The United States frequently leaked the news, and the Russian side gave it a cold shoulder.

  For the summit meeting between Russia and the United States, the United States frequently let loose, while Russian officials handled it cautiously, even with some indifference. The Kremlin and the Russian Foreign Ministry have neither confirmed nor denied this plan before. It was not until Putin met with Bolton on the 27th that Russian officials said that the time and place of the Russian-US summit meeting had been confirmed.

  Just on the 21st of this month, Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov also said in response to a reporter’s question that "the upcoming Russia-US summit meeting" was deliberately leaked by the US, and Russia would not comment on this leaked news.

  Expert: It is difficult for the summit meeting to make a big turning point in Russia-US relations.

  As for the preparations for the summit meeting between the United States and Russia, analysts pointed out that the main purpose of planning the summit meeting is to prevent the highly tense bilateral relations from getting out of control and not to make a major turning point in Russia-US relations. Moreover, historically, US-Russian relations will experience a curve of "opening higher and going lower" after most new American presidents take office, from "restarting" in the early days of taking office to a sharp turn, and such plots have been staged repeatedly.

  Ups and downs! Russia-US relations are like riding a roller coaster.

  Due to Trump’s good comments on Russia during the campaign, it was once speculated that after Trump took office, the United States might reduce the pressure on Russia in order to achieve "breaking the ice" in Russia-US relations. However, this is not the case. Sometimes, the two sides are relaxed and sometimes tense. The wave of relations between the two countries is like a roller coaster.

  In July 2017, Trump and Putin met for the first time during the G20 Hamburg Summit.

  △ On July 7, 2017, during the G20 Hamburg Summit, US President Trump held bilateral talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

  US President Trump:

  President Putin and I discussed many things and had a very good talk. It was a very, very good talk.

  Russian President Vladimir Putin:

  We believe that Russia and the United States have good reasons and the two countries should reopen some cooperation.

  But a month later, Trump signed a bill to impose additional economic sanctions on relevant individuals and entities in Russia. Subsequently, the Russian side demanded that the staff of the US diplomatic mission in Russia be reduced, and the US side also demanded that Russia close the Consulate General in San Francisco and two diplomatic facilities in Washington and new york.

  There is a "minefield" in the relations between the two countries in eastern Ukraine on the Syrian battlefield.

  The Syrian issue and the situation in eastern Ukraine are all "minefields" where Russia-US relations are difficult to overcome. Both Trump and Putin have said that the two sides have communicated on this and "talked very well". But the moment of "talking well" is fleeting. On the Syrian battlefield, both sides and supporting forces claimed to be attacked by the other side. On the Ukrainian issue, the two sides have started a new round of angry words.

  The congratulatory message is not "full moon" and the United States "turns its face"

  In March this year, after Putin was re-elected as Russian president, Trump called to congratulate Putin and mentioned the possibility of meeting the two. But before the congratulatory message was sent out, he changed his tune again. On April 11, Trump posted a message on social networking sites warning Russia to get ready, and the new smart missiles of the United States will soon hit Syria. He also said that the current US-Russian relations are in the worst period in history, even worse than during the Cold War.

BYD’s "Eye of the Gods": Driving to new heights with wisdom and making new changes in travel.

1. What is the "Eye of God"

BYD’s "Eye of God" is its high-level intelligent driving assistance system, which represents BYD’s top technical level and innovative achievements in the field of intelligent driving, aiming at providing drivers with a safer, more convenient and comfortable driving experience, making driving easier and more enjoyable, and also laying a solid foundation for the future development of autonomous driving.

This system integrates many advanced technologies, and one of its core technologies is NOA(No Map Needed Autopilot) technology, which breaks through the dependence of traditional automatic driving on high-precision maps, senses the surrounding environment information in real time through various sensors carried by the vehicle itself, and uses advanced algorithms to process and analyze the data, so as to accurately judge the road conditions and driving scenes and realize intelligent driving decisions under complex road conditions.


The end-to-end large model architecture is also the key technical support of "Eye of the Gods". This architecture can efficiently process a large number of perceptual data, imitate human driving thinking and decision-making mode, quickly and accurately plan the driving path, predict the behavior of other road users, and then make reasonable driving actions such as overtaking, avoiding and turning, which greatly improves the intelligence and adaptability of the intelligent driving system.

Multi-sensor fusion sensing technology ensures that the system can obtain the information around the vehicle in all directions and with high precision. "Eye of God" is equipped with a variety of sensors, such as ultra-long-range high-precision lidar, high-definition camera, millimeter-wave radar, etc. These sensors have their own advantages. Lidar can accurately measure the distance and contour, camera provides rich visual image information, and millimeter-wave radar has good stability and reliability in bad weather conditions. By deeply fusing the data of these sensors, the system realizes 360-degree perception of the surrounding environment of vehicles without dead angle, and can accurately identify roads, traffic signs, vehicles, pedestrians and obstacles in bright day, night with low visibility or bad weather, providing a solid data foundation for intelligent driving decision-making and making the driving process safer and more reliable.

Second, excellent computing ability

Computational ability is one of the cores of intelligent driving system, and BYD’s Eye of God system also performs well in this respect. Many models are equipped with NVIDIA Orin X chip, which provides strong computational support for the efficient operation of the system.

For example, Wangwang U8 is equipped with dual NVIDIA Orin X chips, with a computing power of 508 TOPS (508 trillion operations per second), which can quickly process massive data from various sensors and ensure that the system can make accurate decisions quickly under complex road conditions. Whether it is vehicle identification and car following in high-speed driving, or terrain analysis and path planning in off-road scenes, powerful computing power can ensure the smooth operation and timely response of the system.

Most models are equipped with a single NVIDIA Orin X chip with a computing power of 254 TOPS, which can also meet the intelligent driving needs in urban roads and high-speed driving.

Russia "tests the water" Russian-Philippine military exercise The United States said "no opinion"

   The Russian naval formation officially began a friendly visit to the Philippines on the 3rd, and plans to hold the first joint maritime exercise with the Philippines. Russian media called this an "unprecedented" naval exchange between the two countries.

   A the State Council spokesman said that the US side was "fine with it". The US military announced that the battle group of the aircraft carrier "carl vinson" would set off as soon as 5th for routine deployment in the western Pacific.

   [First joint exercise]

   The Russian Navy Pacific Fleet "Admiral Tributs" anti-submarine destroyer and "Boris Butoma" supply ship arrived at Nangang Wharf in Manila, the capital of the Philippines, on the 2nd, and the Philippine side held a welcoming ceremony on the 3rd.

   Rear Admiral Edward mikhailov, deputy commander of the Pacific Fleet led by Russia, announced that on the last day of the visit, namely, the 7th, the two sides will hold a joint anti-piracy and anti-terrorism exercise. He said, "We are very confident" that Russia and the Philippines will hold such drills "in the future", "maybe just drilling" or just operating some weapon systems.

   The Philippine army is backward in equipment and lack of funds, and it is often stretched out when dealing with Abu Sayyaf and other anti-government forces. The latter often attack fishing boats, merchant ships and cruise ships from China, Malaysia and Indonesia in the Sulu Sea and its nearby waters, kidnap hostages, extort ransom, and attack military and political targets in the Philippines from time to time.

   Mikhailov told Philippine media reporters after the welcoming ceremony that Russia can help the Philippines through joint combat drills. "We are very experienced in dealing with these (threats). We will share knowledge with you on how to deal with these problems and how to solve the problems of piracy and terrorism. "

   He added that the Russian navy had previously conducted similar exercises with the Indonesian navy.

   "You can choose … … Cooperate with the United States, or cooperate with Russia, "mikhailov said," but we can help you in any way you need. "

   [Russia-Philippines security cooperation]

   According to the Associated Press, this is the third time that a Russian naval vessel has visited the Philippines, and it is the first time since Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte took office. According to a Philippine military spokesman, Russian naval vessels had briefly docked in the Philippines for replenishment, but the exchange activities between the two armies were the first time in recent years.

   After taking office at the end of June last year, Duterte drastically adjusted his foreign policy in an attempt to reduce his dependence on the United States. Last August, Russian and Philippine officials met in Manila, and the two countries began to negotiate a defense cooperation agreement. In December, Philippine Defense Minister Delphine Lorenzana and Foreign Minister Perfecto Yasai visited Moscow to discuss issues such as economy, trade and military cooperation, in preparation for Duterte’s visit to Russia in April and May this year.

   Lorenzana said after his visit to Russia that the Philippine military is considering buying a batch of sniper rifles from Russia.

   Wang Xiaowei, a foreign professor at Moscow University and a researcher at the European Studies Center of China University of Political Science and Law, told Xinhua that after Duterte took office, the cooperation between the Philippines and Russia in the military and security fields showed a rapid development trend. The Philippines was very interested in buying Russian-made arms such as helicopter gunships and armored equipment, and hoped to get military technology transfer.

   On the other hand, although the military purchase contract that the Philippine side intends to sign will not be too big, it may only be hundreds of millions of dollars. Russia is still very active in opening up the Philippine market and is even willing to provide loans for this.

   Wang Xiaowei believes that Russia has adjusted its military strategy since last year and intends to rebuild its overseas military bases. Before that, it was reported that Russia wanted to restart its bases in Cuba and Cam Ranh Bay, and the Philippine side just had the idea of reusing subic bay, where the former US naval base was located, and did not rule out the possibility of setting up a Russian military base in subic bay in the future.

   [Russia deliberately keeps a low profile]

   The State Council spokesman John Kirby was asked at a regular press conference on the 3rd local time what he thought of the possible joint exercise between Russia and the Philippines, saying that it was a matter for the Russian and Philippine governments, and the US side was "fine with it".

   Kirby said that bilateral relations between countries do not need "binary opposition", and every nation-state has the right to seek and develop its own bilateral relations. He believes that if Russia and the Philippines hold military exercises, it will not affect how the US evaluates the importance of US-Philippines relations.

   Wang Xiaowei believes that after US President-elect Donald Trump takes office on January 20th, Russia-US relations and Philippine-US relations may be significantly improved. In particular, Russia hopes to create a friendly atmosphere for the resumption of Russia-US relations, keeping a low profile for the warship’s visit to the Philippines in general, and making no fanfare for possible military cooperation between Russia and the Philippines in the future. Moreover, there are forces in the Philippines that restrict Duterte from changing his policy toward the United States. Therefore, the symbolic significance of this military exchange between Russia and the Philippines is greater than the actual significance.

   In addition, the US Navy’s Third Fleet announced on the 3rd that the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier "carl vinson" is scheduled to depart from the home port of San Diego, California, for the western Pacific Ocean from the 5th to the 6th, and take over the tasks of the nuclear aircraft carrier "Ronald Reagan" of the Seventh Fleet, which is undergoing maintenance, including training, exercises and visits.

   Although the US military said that this was a "routine dispatch", some military media pointed out that at present, the war in the Middle East is tense, and the aircraft carriers rotated by the United States are also not "on duty", while the Pentagon would rather "empty" the Persian Gulf for a short time than see the US aircraft carriers in the western Pacific. The strategic priority can be seen.
