Most satisfied with fashion and youth, cool atmosphere lights and a sense of science and technology in off the charts! 9-speed automatic transmission, almost no frustration!

The most dissatisfied with the sound effect is just so-so. The original car’s own sound is really lame, not as loud as Berlin’s.

[Space] The space in the front row of my 176 is quite large. There is not much horizontal space for two people. Three people are not very comfortable. From driving to now, I have only gone home for the Spring Festival, and I have been full of company group tours. Basically, I am alone.

[Power] The power is smooth between 234 gears, and occasionally, there will be some setbacks in oil collection.

[Control] Control is general, and this owner plays.

[Comfort] The front seat is comfortable and the rear seat is short.

[Appearance] I bought a sports label with pearl white. I feel very young. In fact, I am already young.

[Interior] Family-style design is adopted, just like driving an S. Due to the hasty booking of a car, the car comes with a black interior, which is a little depressing, but quite resistant to dirt.

[Cost-effective] If people like me don’t pay attention to performance, people who look at their eyes will buy a car of around 500,000, which is still very good.

The drone postman appeared in the mountainous area of Guiyang and needed to change batteries when flying to every village.

  Since the beginning of January this year, residents of Weicheng Town, Guiyang City, located in the mountainous area of Guizhou Province, have often seen a drone shuttle through the town. Under the belly of the plane, there was a box with the words "China Post". The local people later learned that this drone was used by the post office in the town to deliver mail to the surrounding mountain villages. Beijing Youth Daily reporter learned from the local post office on the 15th that this drone now flies twice a week, and it will be promoted if it works well in the future.

  Postman part-time drone operator

  On the morning of 15th, Wang Hua, a staff member of Weicheng Post Sub-bureau in Guiyang, took his drone to an open space near the town, and prepared to deliver newspapers and some mails to five villages around the town.

  Wang Hua is a postman. He used to ride a motorcycle to deliver mail to several surrounding villages three times a week. Because the mountain road is rugged, although the distance is not far, it takes a whole day to deliver it every time. Since the beginning of January this year, Wang Hua has added a new task, which is to operate drones to transport mail.

  "Our economy is not developed here. Many people have never seen drones, so many people gathered around to see them when they first started flying. Some old people asked us about the timetable for flying drones and came to see them several times." Wang Hua said.

  Wang Hua said that he is driving a drone, but in fact the main operation is not done by him. He is mainly responsible for loading mail on the drone and then checking the battery. The flight route has long been set by the company that developed the drone. All he has to do is scan the QR code on the plane with his mobile phone, and then click the start button on the mobile phone, and the plane can fly according to the pre-designed route.

  "It used to take a whole day to send the mail from these villages by motorcycle. Now the whole route is flown by drones, which is more than an hour." Wang Hua said.

  Flying to every village requires changing batteries.

  Director Chen Zhongxiang of Weicheng Post Sub-office told the reporter of Beiqing Daily that at present, there is only one drone in the town post office, and they selected five villages, namely Yingyan, Yinqiao, Maixiang, Xingguang and Lianhua Temple, as delivery pilots. Chen Zhongxiang said that these villages were chosen because they are relatively remote, and it takes too long and the road is dangerous to send mail into the village by manpower.

  Chen Zhongxiang said that the UAV they are using now has a diameter of more than 1 meter and six propellers. In theory, it can carry about 7 kilograms of goods. However, for safety reasons, the stipulated delivery weight is no more than 5 kilograms, and the flying distance between villages is about 10 minutes. Every time you fly to a village, you need people from the village to help replace the new battery, and then you can fly to the next village. The whole journey is a "relay" process.

  "The plane must be fully charged before it can take off. The last time we saw the power of the plane was 82%, we felt that we could complete a flight, but after the start, the plane still could not take off. This may be the design made by the aircraft research and development enterprise for the absolute safety of the aircraft." Chen Zhongxiang said.

  Temporarily unable to replace manual delivery.

  According to the staff of the UAV R&D company, when the plane lands, it needs to lay a red and blue positioning carpet at the landing site. The UAV is equipped with a sensor in the vertical direction. When it searches for the positioning carpet, it will land accurately. Location.

  Chen Zhongxiang told the reporter of Beiqing Daily that it was not the decision of the town post office to equip the town post office with drones, but the higher authorities chose the Weicheng post office as a pilot. If the use effect is good in the future, it will continue to be promoted.

  "Many people in the village felt particularly fresh when they saw the plane at first, and the people in charge of managing the plane in each village also had a WeChat group. When the plane took off and landed, everyone would inform each other."

  Annabelle of Xingguang Village Committee is one of the managers of this drone. Every time he receives the mail from his village, he also needs to replace the plane with a new battery. "If the battery is not fully charged, the plane can’t fly, but there will definitely be no forgetting to charge the battery. Everyone will remind each other when they have WeChat groups."

  Chen Zhongxiang said that in the past, the postman of the post office had to go into the mountain three times a week, but now it has been reduced to twice a week, while the drone now flies twice a week. If the effect is good in the future, it will increase the flight frequency. "But due to the limitation of load, drones can’t completely replace the postman now, and everywhere they go, they need people to get express delivery for batteries. There are still some troubles. It would be nice if these jobs can be replaced by machines in the future."

CBNData jointly released the "2018 Mobile Phone Ordering Trend Insight Report"

In the Internet era, ordering food by mobile phone is bringing new opportunities to the catering industry.

On July 30th, CBNData jointly released the Insight Report on 2018 Mobile Phone Ordering Trend (hereinafter referred to as "Report"). Based on word-of-mouth data, it focused on the latest development of mobile phone ordering in offline catering consumption, gained insight into the consumption characteristics of mobile phone ordering people and interpreted the latest development trend of offline catering.

CBNData "Report" shows that in the past year, the penetration rate of mobile phone ordering in merchants and consumers has increased significantly; Mobile phone ordering users have a high acceptance of fast food and snack catering with higher ordering efficiency; After 85 s and 90 s, they are fans of mobile phone ordering; Mobile phone ordering users are mainly concentrated in first-and second-tier cities. Hangzhou and Shanghai use mobile phones to order food most commonly, and the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration is far ahead.

The increase in the penetration rate of mobile phone ordering obviously helps to upgrade catering services.

Food is the most important thing for the people. According to the data of the National Bureau of Statistics, since 2015, the catering industry in China has achieved double-digit growth for three consecutive years, with a scale of nearly 4 trillion yuan. The growth of catering revenue has continuously outperformed the growth of total retail sales of social consumer goods. As aborigines in the Internet age, "post-80s" and "post-90s" have become the backbone of catering consumption, and it is very important for the catering industry to meet the needs of this consumer group through Internet.

The "Report" pointed out that the iterative upgrade of ordering methods is an important embodiment of the Internet in the catering industry, and ordering by mobile phone has become the latest trend to help upgrade catering services.

According to the Report, in the past year, the penetration rate of mobile phone ordering in both merchants and consumers has increased significantly. In terms of merchants, taking word-of-mouth platform as an example, compared with the second quarter of 2017, the number of merchant stores using mobile phone ordering function increased by 44% in the first quarter of 2018, and the coverage rate of merchant stores using mobile phone ordering function also increased by about 79%.

Before arriving at the store, consumers use the word-of-mouth App to order good food in advance, make an appointment and then pick it up at the store; After arriving at the store, consumers can order directly with their mobile phones without queuing. For merchants, the cost reduction and efficiency improvement brought by ordering food by mobile phone are remarkable. On the one hand, this ordering method can optimize the process and improve the turnover rate and service efficiency of the restaurant. On the other hand, it saves labor costs and consumables costs. Taking the comparison of operating costs of "Jindingxuan" before and after ordering food by mobile phone as an example, the labor cost of a single store can be saved by 240,000 a year, and the cost of paper menus can be reduced by 350,000 a year.

In addition, ordering food by mobile phone has also realized the change from "card" to "person" in member management. Mobile phone ordering and collecting a large amount of consumption data provide more possibilities for restaurants to create refined and intelligent membership services.

As the function of ordering food by mobile phone has been widely verified, the Report predicts that accessing mobile phone to order food will become the infrastructure for the operation of stores. After experiencing the embryonic stage and the initial stage of development in the past year, the access of mobile phone ordering in catering stores will usher in a period of rapid development in the next year.

Post-80s and post-90s become the main force of the new generation of mobile phone ordering, and have higher acceptance of fast food.

For consumers, ordering food by mobile phone can reduce the waiting time, get real-time discounts, meet their own personalized needs, and significantly improve the dining experience. According to the data of word-of-mouth platform, the number of mobile phone ordering users ushered in a large growth in the third quarter of 2017, which was higher than the growth rate of the overall number of users on the platform. In the first quarter of 2018, the number of users increased by 48% month-on-month, about twice the overall growth rate of the platform. The penetration rate of mobile phone ordering users has also continued to increase. The penetration rate in the first quarter of 2018 is about five times that in the second quarter of 2017.

Specifically, young users are the absolute main force of the mobile phone ordering party, and the number of users after 90 is the highest, followed by 85 and 95. The number of women users is also relatively higher than that of men.

From the peak of the post-90s and post-90s meals, it can be seen that they are new to the society and have not settled down yet, and they eat out and use their mobile phones to order food on weekdays. Moreover, the gap between the weekend catering consumption level of the post-90s and post-90s and the working day is more obvious, indicating that young people who will enjoy life consciously reward themselves and "eat something good" on weekends.

On the whole, mobile phone ordering users have a high acceptance of fast food and snacks, because their products are highly standardized and consumers have higher requirements for ordering efficiency. According to the Report, fast food and snack shops account for 40% of all mobile phone ordering shops, and contribute nearly 80% of mobile phone ordering pens.

However, this trend is also expanding to other catering categories. According to the report, men’s attempts to order food by mobile phone have expanded from fast food snacks to Chinese food, hot pot, western food and other categories, and after 90, they have expanded from fast food snacks to hot pot and other categories.

The "Report" pointed out that the new generation of people ordering food by mobile phone is highly coincident with the main group of food and beverage consumption in the store. The post-80s and post-90s’ sensitivity to time and pursuit of quality experience will push back the popularization and optimization of ordering function of mobile phones from consumers.

Hangzhou and Shanghai use mobile phones to order food, and the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration is far ahead.

Generally speaking, the fashionable trend starts from first-and second-tier cities, and then gradually spreads to low-tier cities, and mobile phone ordering is no exception. According to the Report, over 60% of mobile phone ordering users are concentrated in first-tier cities and second-tier cities, but the proportion of mobile phone ordering users in third-and fourth-tier cities is increasing.

At present, the development of mobile phone ordering in the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration can be described as the first. From the perspective of the whole year, the penetration rate of mobile phone ordering in the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration is significantly ahead of the Pearl River Delta and Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomeration. Since the second quarter of 2017, the penetration rate of the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration has increased the fastest, while the Pearl River Delta urban agglomeration is relatively flat.

In terms of cities, Hangzhou and Shanghai are the leading cities in mobile phone ordering, and Hangzhou, as the "city of mobile payment", has become the development benchmark in the field of mobile phone ordering. Shanghai residents have used mobile phones to order food, but the frequency of use is not as good as that of Hangzhou, and their habits still need to be cultivated. There are many colleges and universities in Wuhan, and the government actively encourages scientific research and innovation, or promotes the atmosphere of ordering food by mobile phone, so it has become the only central city among the top ten.

The Report predicts that the advantages of first-and second-tier cities in ordering food by mobile phone will continue. Mobile payment was first popularized in the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration, and merchants are highly sensitive to Internet technology, and will still maintain their advantage in ordering food on mobile phones in the short term. Shanghai, which has the largest number of mobile phone orders, and Hangzhou, which has the largest number of mobile phone orders, are currently in the leading position, but it is still unknown who will spend the "first city".

The State Council Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism Conference: Recently, the situation of multi-point distribution of local epidemics and frequent prevention and control in many places is severe

Cctv newsOn July 23rd, the State Council Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism held a press conference on the safety and effectiveness of vaccines in Covid-19. According to the report of the World Health Organization, the newly confirmed cases in the western Pacific where China is located increased by 37% last week, which is the fastest growing region in the world. Omicron’s BA.5 sub-branch has spread to more than 100 countries and regions around the world, resulting in an increase in the number of infections, hospitalizations and severe cases, and the pressure on China’s foreign countries to prevent imports is increasing.

Recently, the local epidemic situation has shown a trend of multi-point distribution and frequent occurrence. In some areas, the epidemic spillover has not been completely blocked, and the prevention and control situation is severe and complicated.

We must unswervingly adhere to the general strategy of "external defense input, internal defense rebound" and the general policy of "dynamic clearing". The areas where the epidemic occurred should deal with the clustered epidemic according to the local situation, concentrate resources and strength to quickly put it out, and quickly curb the spread of the local epidemic; Border areas and entry cities should strictly implement various measures for external defense input, strictly manage in a closed loop, and resolutely avoid the destruction of defense and the overflow of epidemic situation; Areas where no epidemic has occurred should continue to do a good job in normalization prevention and control, and maintain the efficient operation of the emergency response command system.

Covid-19 vaccination should be continued.

4.1.2 Activate users

1) The "shopping guide" is transformed into a "sharing community", and high-quality UGC content enhances the social attributes of Xiaohongshu.

By inviting experts from all fields and community promotion, women with overseas shopping habits are encouraged to share their shopping experiences on Xiaohongshu. By producing high-quality content through UGC, Xiaohongshu has accumulated a large number of middle-and high-income female users, and its stickiness has made a qualitative leap. More and more users are willing to exchange shopping experiences and have completed the acquisition and activation of early seed users.

In several version iterations, Xiaohongshu has continuously strengthened social functions and content publishing tools, effectively improving users’ participation and activity.

On the basis of high-quality content community, Xiaohongshu was upgraded from content community to "content+e-commerce" in October 2014, and the "welfare society" module was launched, and the business closed loop was finally formed. Xiaohongshu clarified the user’s needs and product development direction, and became a one-stop platform for e-commerce in women’s overseas shopping communities, from content planting to shopping mall ordering. slogan was changed to "find good things abroad".

2) The first global awards event, in which millions of users voted for good things from all over the world.

At the end of 2014, Xiaohongshu held the first global prize-winning activity. Within 20 days, 1.87 million people voted, which was very popular. The products and shops it launched once became the vane of outbound shopping.

This activity was all voted by users, attracting more people to participate in it through the most popular H5 method at present, and finally forming fashion list, makeup list, furniture list and other lists. The discussion heat of users in Xiaohongshu increased significantly, which brought high popularity and activity to Xiaohongshu, and also gained a number of new users for Xiaohongshu. Since then, global awards have been held for three consecutive years in 2015 and 2016, further expanding its influence.

For a product that has passed the initial stage, the core goal is to gain rapid user growth. Xiaohongshu has verified the user demand in the initial stage, and then began to attract more and more users through the update of product functions and the holding of creative activities, and quickly occupied the market, while slogan was changed to "a good thing in the world".

4.2.1 Get Users & Activate Users

1) "Fresh Meat Marketing for Anniversary Celebration" to gain new users-Fresh Meat Video, Fresh Meat Express and School Grass Express.

In the early stage of the 2015 anniversary, Xiaohongshu began to put on video advertisements for publicity. The content of the video was that a topless foreign male model showed Xiaohongshu’s slogan "Finding good things abroad" through the scene.

On the anniversary day, Xiaohongshu hired a group of foreign male models in SOHO, Shanghai, naked as customers to deliver the courier, and provided the "princess hug" benefits, which made the female users on the scene once boiling and accurately reached the target users. This activity brought 3 million new users and 50 million yuan in sales for Xiaohongshu. From the data point of view, the daily activities and new additions have doubled, which has successfully played a role in pulling new ones.

In September 2015, Xiaohongshu held a marketing campaign of "School Grass Express" in 12 universities in five cities across the country while the iron was hot, which once again set off a wave in the circle of female college students.

In the end, the "School Grass Express" event ended with 52.977 million exposures and 47,000 discussions, which successfully improved the overall popularity in the post-90 s circle. During the whole anniversary, Xiaohongshu APP ranked fourth in the total list of Apple App Stores, with 15 million users.

2) "Star Girl" Jelly Lin and other female stars and KOL settled in Xiaohongshu.

In April 2017, Little Red Book invited Jelly Lin, a "star girl", to officially settle in Little Red Book. Later, female stars such as Nana Ou-yang and Stephy and vertical KOL successively settled in Little Red Book.

First of all, the star itself has its own traffic. By entering the activity, it can increase the number of users and improve user retention; Secondly, the publication of life notes by stars will enable fans to see the daily life of the stars and narrow the distance between fans and stars. At the same time, the stars bring their own elements such as fashion, fashion and wearing, which can arouse the topic and effectively enhance the user’s activity. In addition, you can also use the fan effect of stars to promote some goods and improve profitability.

4.2.2 Retain users

1) Refined operation

At this stage, Xiaohongshu began to focus on the optimization of community functions, the page was revised many times, the product was iterated many times, and the recommendation algorithm was updated.

Based on the machine algorithm, Xiaohongshu will make personalized recommendations according to users’ interests and user portraits, and successfully achieve "content finding", which shows that Xiaohongshu team attaches great importance to users’ experiences and needs, and keeps more users with no clear browsing purpose through refined operation, which improves daily activity and user usage time.

In order to ensure users’ long-term retention, Xiaohongshu encourages users to publish, share, like, collect and comment, and sets up a ten-level user growth system. Each level corresponds to the task requirements of corresponding social attributes, and the completion of these tasks will grow to the next level, thus encouraging users to use little red books more.

In the process of upgrading and cracking down on monsters, users with creative ability are unconsciously encouraged to become new UGC, and more high-quality content is produced and spread on the platform, forming a positive circular incentive.

4.2.3 Transforming users

1) Red Friday

In November 2015, Xiaohongshu transplanted the "Black Friday" activity to China and launched the "Red Friday" promotion activity, which covered more than ten categories such as skin care and makeup. Selected overseas goods are less than 50% off, and all overseas direct mail goods are free of freight.

The gameplay is novel and the scene is strong, which paves the way for holiday promotion. Users can see the "Red Five" sign everywhere in the APP, and click to browse and buy their favorite products, which increases the daily activity of users and is also an important means to realize profit.

2) Three days and three nights between Hugh and Little Red Book.

In April, 2016, Xiaohongshu invited Hugh and planned the "Three Days and Three Nights between Hugh and Xiaohongshu" activity. Accurate artist matching+advertisement recording close to life, as well as the pre-heating of Weibo before going online, successfully created a wave of big topics on Weibo, which raised the popularity of Xiaohongshu to a higher level, and the new growth rate of users reached 100%.

This cooperation with Hugh once again accurately captured the female users of Little Red Book, and the label # Hugh Endorsed Little Red Book # created by fans on Weibo, which received more than 7 million readings.

At the same time, Xiaohongshu planned the promotion of the category of "Hugh Advertising with the same paragraph" of Welfare Society, and launched the activity of "Buy enough 699 to get the potato captain doll with the same paragraph in Hugh". The whole activity released the topic of quantity, guided the participation and dissemination of households, improved the activity of users and increased the sales of the mall, allowing users to experience all the charm of Little Red Book in a closed loop.

Through the operation in the growing period, Xiaohongshu has already had a large number of users and a relatively stable position, and established a brand image. The tonality of users has declined, and slogan has changed to "mark my life". At this stage, Xiaohongshu pays more attention to the operation of content communities, conducts thematic planning, and is guided by user activity, retention rate, commercial realization and user communication.

4.3.1 Activate users & keep users.

  • Idol Trainee & Creation 101

In January and April of 2018, with the expansion of the fan economy, Xiaohongshu sponsored two phenomenal variety shows, namely "Idol Trainee" and "Creation 101". The two top variety shows brought super high exposure to Xiaohongshu, and Xiaohongshu users entered the spurt growth stage.

In addition to oral broadcast, insertion and logo, Xiaohongshu also invited trainees to come to Xiaohongshu to release notes and open a voting channel in the APP. From the data point of view, the diversion effect of the program broadcast for three consecutive months is extremely obvious.

The audience of the two variety shows are actually potential users of Xiaohongshu, especially women. They are keen on star hotspots and fashion trends. Xiaohongshu successfully acquired these potential users through the precise variety show. These users are of high quality and high activity. They posted articles on Xiaohongshu to share their love beans and spit out the competition system, which improved the overall activity.

At the same time, posting and sharing in voting rules can increase the number of votes, which actually improves the activity and retention rate of users.

After the end of the activity, the trainees continued to use Xiaohongshu to record their lives and publish their daily lives, which continued to attract fans. Fans would like to praise and comment on the trainees’ notes and buy the goods planted by the trainees, which improved the activity and retention rate of Xiaohongshu.

4.3.2 User Transformation & User Communication

1) Differentiated e-commerce live broadcast

With the popularity of Taobao’s e-commerce live broadcast, Li Jiaqi, Viya and other anchors constantly set a record for the transaction amount, and Xiaohongshu also started to conduct e-commerce live broadcast, trying to get the latest traffic bonus of the platform on the live broadcast track.

In 2019, Xiaohongshu tested the e-commerce live broadcast, and the enterprise model student "Perfect Diary" made a new product debut in Xiaohongshu live broadcast. The new products were quickly snapped up, and the powder rose by 100,000 people one week after the live broadcast. In April 2020, the live broadcast was officially launched and began to be open to all creators in the platform.

The next day, Xiaohongshu announced the 3 billion traffic and targeted support plan on the second creator’s open day, hoping to normalize the live broadcast. Xiaohongshu, which has always emphasized style and quality, also pursues a differentiated live broadcast form. The live broadcast is based on the core advantage content notes, mainly sharing and chatting, and the atmosphere with goods is more inclined to emotional attributes.

On the one hand, it improves the user’s activity and conversion rate through live broadcast, realizing the realization of the platform, and on the other hand, it also realizes the retention of outstanding creators by realizing the realization.

2) "Creator 123 Plan"&"Campus Big Player"

In the past two years, Xiaohongshu has launched activities such as "Creator Open Day", "Creator 123 Plan" and "Campus Big Player" to carry out the "Million Creator Support Plan" for creators who love to share their lives, aiming to help content creators improve the quality of notes and productivity, hoping to cultivate and retain excellent content producers through various incentives, so that creators and content can release greater influence, precipitate private domain traffic for creators, and provide diversified commercialization roads.

At the same time, attract more users to join the little red book to complete the purpose of word-of-mouth communication.

After the above analysis, we analyze the advantages and disadvantages of Xiaohongshu from three aspects: content operation, activity operation and household operation.

In terms of content operation, high-quality UGC content dissemination and community communication are the key points of Xiaohongshu’s success.

At present, Xiaohongshu has tens of thousands of notes in various hot topics such as fashion, skin care, travel, fitness, food, film and television, etc. The note list page made by high-quality creators gives people the most direct beauty enjoyment through exquisite filters and designed photos or small videos.

Xiaohongshu guides topics according to hot spots and user preferences, and encourages users to discover new content. Users can browse and share their life experiences on Xiaohongshu, and at the same time, they can complete a one-stop shopping experience from planting grass to placing orders.

On the other hand, the presence of more and more stars and KOL makes all kinds of commercial implants and soft articles appear in Little Red Books. The original intention of content creators to publish notes is no longer good recommendation, but commercial promotion, so users gradually become cautious about notes and have some doubts about the authenticity of the content.

For ordinary content creators, many people are also worried that the massive admission of star KOL will change the positioning of "Little Red Book" in a subtle way, and the style will gradually become the trend of "showing off wealth", so creators and staff of Little Red Book need stricter control and more accurate algorithms in content review.

Xiaohongshu’s achievements are largely due to the creativity of the event. At present, Xiaohongshu has established two festivals of its own label-"6.6 Anniversary Celebration" and "Red Friday". In addition, the platform often combines hot spots or self-made hot spots to carry out creative activities marketing, such as fresh meat express and linkage draft variety show.

Both online and offline activities have been well received, and the daily activity and new registrations during the activities are more eye-catching. In the next step, Xiaohongshu will launch cross-border cooperation with tourism, and also look forward to the next explosion point created by Xiaohongshu.

In terms of user operation, the users of Xiaohongshu are mainly divided into two categories: content producers and ordinary users.

For ordinary users, Xiaohongshu has established a user growth rating system, encouraging users to share life fun, publish notes, and communicate socially in the platform to become creators and produce high-quality content, thus forming a virtuous circle;

For content producers, the creator training system of the platform allows users to continuously produce high-quality content, and at the same time, it brings huge traffic and hot spots to the platform, and then users can cooperate with brands to realize traffic realization, thus ensuring the operation of the platform.

Despite this, Xiaohongshu is still under pressure in user conversion, and creative activities can often bring short-term profits to the platform, but once the popularity passes, the sales volume of the platform will return to the previous level.

Although Xiaohongshu’s "community+e-commerce" model realizes the closed-loop of user behavior, its commercial realization is not satisfactory, and its popularity and reputation do not seem to match the market share. In the end, it is because users have not changed the shopping mode of "planting grass on Xiaohongshu and pulling grass on other platforms", especially the "fake goods" that broke out in recent years have had a certain impact on Xiaohongshu’s reputation.

At the same time, with the increasing number of competitors on the social e-commerce track in recent years, the market expansion space is limited, and many APPs with overlapping functions are gradually launched, such as Tik Tok and Aauto Quicker, which focus on short video socializing, Netease Koala Shopping, a community-based shopping app integrating sharing and shopping, etc. Their rise has caused a large-scale shift in users’ attention, which will make Xiaohongshu lose a group of users to a certain extent. How to complete traffic construction and user maintenance in the industry with many giants will be the focus of Xiaohongshu’s consideration.

Judging from the data in October 2020, Xiaohongshu ranked first in the dating APP section of iResearch data community, and the number of independent devices is still rising, which is in the leading position in the industry.

Little Red Book has gradually developed into a comprehensive platform of community+e-commerce from the initial PDF travel shopping strategy, with the number of users exceeding 300 million. The content of this "book" of Little Red Book has become richer and richer, and more and more users have written it.

As the first batch of community+e-commerce products, Xiaohongshu identified the target users at the beginning of the product, fully met the needs of users, and successfully realized the integration of two seemingly weak modules through marketing activities, realizing the logical self-consistency of the product and the closed loop of user behavior within the product.

  • The e-commerce industry is already in the Red Sea competition, and users don’t seem to buy the e-commerce platform of Xiaohongshu, and there is still much room for improvement in traffic liquidity;
  • Faced with the same type of content community or social e-commerce APP that is rising, how can Xiaohongshu maintain its position and maintain its relationship with users?

6.2.1 Strengthen the connection between content and e-commerce, and constantly explore the integration of content community and e-commerce platform.

Realize the intercommunication between seller’s comments and notes, place the product link at the appropriate place on the note page, or attach the sharing notes of star KOL to the product page to enhance the user’s impression and trust; Invite the official flagship store to settle in and improve the variety of goods.

On the basis of the original REDelivery international logistics system, a mature supply chain system and a perfect management system are established to support its e-commerce platform and ensure the authenticity of goods; At the same time, establish a supervision and audit mechanism, conduct regular spot checks, remove inferior products in time, and do a good job in after-sales service.

6.2.2 In terms of user maintenance, we should adhere to the tonality of the product itself and ensure the high quality of the core content.

Increase the reward function of high-quality content, give more direct ways to prove creative ability and get more economic encouragement for high-quality content; Establish a hot list of little red books similar to Weibo Hot Search and Zhihu Hot List, inform users of current trends, improve users’ immersion time, and thus increase users’ stickiness.

New user incentive mechanisms, such as daily sign-in reward, watching live broadcast time reward, shopping reward, sharing reward, etc., will enable users to get incentives not only from spiritual and emotional aspects, but also from material benefits, and these rewards can be used for cash deduction in e-commerce sectors such as welfare agencies, thus forming a cycle.

Xiaohongshu has developed from an unknown APP to a national-level software in just six years. Behind this is the creation and efforts of the founding team. "Three points rely on innovation and seven points rely on hard work." In the future, Xiaohongshu will provide more interesting community games to meet more needs of users, and expect Xiaohongshu to write his own wonderful.

Why did online celebrity products encounter operational embarrassment when the "shared sleeping cabin" was suspended in many places?

  BEIJING, Beijing, July 19 (Reporter Zhang Ni) The mobile phone can enjoy private sleeping space at a low price by scanning the QR code gently without identity registration. Recently, the "shared sleeping cabin" that appeared in Beijing, Shanghai and other places has attracted people’s attention. However, shortly after its launch, this novelty was urgently suspended.

  Why does "shared sleep" encounter such an embarrassing situation? What are the hidden dangers behind the operation? Is there room for development in the future? In response to the above-mentioned series of questions, the reporter of Zhongxin. com conducted an interview survey a few days ago.

  On the afternoon of July 18th, the door of the "Sleeping Space" experience store on the second floor of Zhonggang Plaza Venture Corporation in Zhongguancun Street was closed. Zhongxin.com reporter Zhang Nishe

  Evacuate many places before it is hot. "Shared sleeping cabin"suspend use.

  Recently, something called "shared sleeping cabin" appeared in Beijing, Shanghai and Sichuan. No deposit, no extra charge, no need to register your ID card, you can sleep by turning on your mobile phone to scan the code, and the minimum 6 yuan is half an hour … … The simple operation mode and low price attracted people to watch.

  However, this concept of "shared sleep" has not had time for most people to "try it early", and it has ushered in the fate of suspension.

  According to media reports, recently, a "shared sleeping cabin" in Zhongguancun, Beijing was closed, and the "shared sleeping cabin" in Yinhe SOHO also temporarily stopped operating.

  On the afternoon of the 18th, the reporter from Zhongxin. com came to the "Enjoy Sleeping Space" experience store on the second floor of Zhonggang Plaza Venture Corporation in Zhongguancun Street and found that the door was indeed closed, and the words "System upgrade, suspended use" were posted outside the door.

  Subsequently, the reporter scanned the QR code, and the mobile phone popped up a "system update and maintenance" prompt, which could not be used normally.

  At the same time, according to media reports, similar situations have occurred in the experience points in Shanghai and Chengdu. Contrary to the fate of bike-sharing, which was quickly spread across the country before, "shared sleep" was embarrassed to leave before it was hot.

  Person in charge: it is expected to be officially launched after the initiative to shut down.

  Why did the "shared sleeping cabin" stop using? Is this behavior done by the police?

  Dai Jiangong, co-founder and CEO of Xiangshui Technology, denied the statement that it was "seized by the police" on the Internet.

  Dai Jiangong told the media that the company has not received any rectification opinions or seizure notices from the relevant departments since the pilot at the end of May, but for the sake of long-term development, it is necessary to communicate with relevant departments, so it took the initiative to suspend all "shared sleeping cabins" in Beijing.

  He emphasized that the company has put more than a dozen "shared sleeping cabins" in Beijing to test and collect user feedback, but it has not been officially launched. The positioning of this project is not hotels or renting beds, but to provide a comfortable space for office white-collar workers in a relatively closed office building, which is not open to the public at night.

  In addition, the person in charge also told the media that there is no approval and license from relevant departments for the "shared sleeping cabin" at present, but the local industrial and commercial administration departments have been invited to check it out and explain the situation to them. The company will be officially launched after obtaining permission from relevant departments such as health and fire protection.

  Lack of supervision "shared sleep" has many hidden dangers.

  In view of the emergence of the new concept of "shared sleep", there are both support and opposition.

  Supporters generally believe that this kind of sleeping cabin is simple to use and low in price, which meets the needs of many office workers for a nap. At the same time, some opponents believe that the health and safety hazards of sleeping cabin are huge.

  In this regard, Su Haopeng, a professor at the Law School of the University of International Business and Economics and director of the Consumer Protection Law Research Center, said in an interview with Zhongxin.com that unlike bike-sharing, the "shared sleeping cabin" caused great controversy as soon as it appeared, mainly because its industry was different from that of bike-sharing.

  "Although the operator emphasizes that the sleeping cabin is only used by the internal staff of some office buildings, and it is not a 24-hour service, it is provided for others to rest, and it is a market-oriented and profitable behavior. It should be included in the scope of the hotel industry from the perspective of economic format." Su Haopeng emphasized that it is necessary to manage the "shared sleeping cabin" according to the hotel industry from the service content.

  He emphasized that the operation of the "shared sleeping cabin" involves a series of management issues such as fire protection, sanitation and public security. If you conduct business activities without the supervision of any relevant departments, it is a violation of the relevant laws and regulations on industrial and commercial management.

  Zhu Wei, a professor at China University of Political Science and Law and an expert member of the internet society of china Sharing Economy Working Committee, also believes that in China, the operation of hotels and guesthouses needs the approval of many departments, such as industry and commerce, health and fire protection, but today’s "shared sleeping cabins" do not have these qualifications, which hides many hidden dangers. These "shared sleeping cabins" must obtain the relevant qualifications of offline hotels to ensure the health and safety of users before they can go online.

  Under the upsurge of "sharing economy", what can be done with people "share”?

  The embarrassing experience of "shared sleeping cabin" has also made people start to think about whether the products that have sprung up under the upsurge of "sharing economy" really belong to the sharing economy, or are they just in the name of "sharing"?

  In Su Haopeng’s view, "sharing economy" is not an accurate legal or policy concept. "In a broad sense, as long as a commodity or service is used by an unspecified majority, it can be called ‘ Sharing economy ’ 。”

  He believes that the current "shared sleeping cabin" is basically the same model as bike-sharing, and it can be included in the broad sense of "shared economy", which is a new economic form.

  On the other hand, not everything is suitable for "sharing". This kind of "shared sleep" which is in seamless contact with the body is difficult to guarantee in terms of safety and hygiene, and its rationality is worth considering.

  Zhu Dajian, director of the Institute of Sustainable Development and Management of Tongji University, also believes that sharing is very fashionable now, but not every kind of "sharing" has a stable and long-term demand, and not every new thing covered with "sharing" has innovation, which still needs to be tested by the market and society.

  In his view, from sharing among acquaintances to sharing among strangers by mobile payment, the era significance of sharing economy lies in breaking "everything should pursue possession" and becoming "not seeking possession but seeking use". (End)

Win the game and get the bonus? Gambling trap under legal cloak

  □ Our reporter Luo Shasha □ Our correspondent Ding Jin

  In recent years, with the continuous development of the e-sports industry, some lawless elements have set their eyes on e-sports and surrounding derivative projects in order to gain high illegal interests. A 14-member criminal gang headed by Gong and Liu set up an e-sports company, developed an e-sports game App, and opened a casino in the name of "Bounty Tournament". In just three months, the gambling money involved was as high as 8.6 million yuan.

  On June 14th, 2023, the People’s Procuratorate of gusu district, Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province filed a public prosecution, and the court sentenced 14 people, including Gong, Liu, Deng and Li, to prison terms ranging from five years and three months to one year and six months, and fined them ranging from 50,000 yuan to 20,000 yuan. Some of them were suspended. He was ordered to withdraw more than 1 million yuan of illegal income and confiscated more than 100 tools such as computers and mobile phones. At present, the judgment has come into effect.

  In August, 2021, Xiao Liu, a college student who lives in gusu district, Suzhou, got a short live video of "Bounty Tournament". According to the anchor, this game App called "Meet Me" contains all kinds of popular mobile games. If you win in the random pairing game, you can win the bonus, and you can withdraw it through the App.

  Not only can you play games, but you can also get money if you win? Xiao Liu, who was very excited, quickly downloaded, registered and logged in, and found that to participate in the "prize-winning battle", he had to recharge the diamond in the App as an "admission fee". Xiao Liu has recharged 100 diamonds and transferred to the entrance of a shooting mobile game that he often plays through the platform to participate in the battle. The so-called "bonus" is the sum of the "admission fees" of him and other players. Although he won 100 diamonds in the end, 30 diamonds were automatically taken away by the platform. Under the reminder of a friend, Xiao Liu realized that the platform was involved in gambling, so he immediately uninstalled the App and called 110.

  After receiving the report, the public security organ filed a case for investigation. The police found that Xiao Liu’s recharge funds flowed to an e-sports company in Chengdu, and a total of 14 suspects including the company’s head Gong, management Liu, App development and promotion and financial personnel were locked up. In September 2021, with the cooperation of the Chengdu police, the police arrested all the suspects and brought them to justice, and the "Mutual Help" App was immediately forced to stop.

  After investigation, Gong and his friend Liu partnered to open a network technology company, which faced losses due to poor operation. One day, when Gong accidentally saw an e-sports game advertisement of "winning the game and earning a bonus", he wanted to develop an App to explode the popularity of mobile games and use the "bonus" gimmick to attract traffic. The company only needed to sit and enjoy the draw.

  Later, Gong persuaded five people, including Liu, to use the state’s support policies for the e-sports industry to register and establish Encounter E-sports Co., Ltd. and obtain the e-sports business license. The business scope includes sports competition organization, animation game development, sports event planning and other e-sports related content. Gong is the actual controller of the company, and Liu and other five people are the shareholders of the company. After joint discussion, they instructed five technicians, including Li and Ma, to develop the "Mutual Help" App, which was officially launched in June 2021. The company’s employees, Deng Mou and Huang Mou, used the online platform to promote the "Bounty Tournament" as a gimmick to attract players to download the App. After registration, they recharged through WeChat and Alipay and bought diamonds as virtual coins. After the user pays the prescribed equivalent virtual currency, the platform randomly pairs into the game, and the winner wins all the rewards and cashes out through App. The company draws profits according to the proportion of shooting mobile games 30% and pushing tower mobile games 20%, and financial staff Xu is responsible for fund settlement. After verification, the App has been in operation for 3 months, and the registered users have reached 2.6 million, and the user’s recharge amount has exceeded 10 million yuan.

  In November 2021, six management personnel, including Gong Mou and Liu Mou, were arrested by the gusu district Procuratorate on suspicion of opening a casino, and eight technical, promotion and financial personnel, including Li Mou, Deng Mou and Xu Mou, were criminally compulsory on bail pending trial. It was found through trial that from June to September, 2021, 14 people, including Gong and Liu, organized players to participate in online gambling through App. The gambling money involved was as high as 8.6 million yuan, and the profit from it was more than 1 million yuan, which constituted the crime of opening a casino.

  "The company has a legal e-sports license, ‘ Meet each other ’ App is similar to JJ landlord, how can it be regarded as opening a casino? " In January 2022, the case was transferred for review and prosecution. Gong and Liu tried to cover up the facts of the crime and insisted that they were engaged in legal and compliant e-sports business.

  According to the review of the procuratorate, the "Mutual Encounter Help" App provides users with a recharge channel for converting cash into virtual currency and a withdrawal channel for converting virtual currency into money again. Users can bet virtual currency as a chip, and the companies involved are drawn from the amount bet by each game player. The resulting user recharge and withdrawal are drawn from the companies involved, which correspond to the "up and down" links of gambling respectively, and belong to online gambling activities.

  "In fact, as long as it meets ‘ Money goes in and money goes out, winning or losing is random ’ This gambling feature can constitute the crime of opening a casino, ‘ E-sports ’ Camouflage is just self-deception. " Undertaking the introduction of prosecutor Liu Ben. In fact, along with the bloody e-sports competition, there were criminals who developed the e-sports quiz App, which allowed players to recharge and bet, and the platform settled and cashed out. In essence, it opened an online casino under the banner of e-sports quiz, which once attracted many players to indulge in it. In contrast, the "mutual encounter" App uses "playing games and winning bounty" as a cover and puts on a "legal coat", which is more confusing and tempting. Young people who love e-sports games, especially students at school, have weak discrimination ability, and are easy to fall into this kind of well-disguised trap, breaking the law without knowing it, so we should take a warning and be vigilant.

  How can we stay away from this kind of online gambling trap? The procuratorate reminded that buying chips to bet, winning or losing determines the income and can be exchanged for cash. As long as these three characteristics are met, whether it is chess, mobile games or other forms, it is already suspected of gambling violations. The masses must improve their discriminating ability, put an end to luck, download and log in games through official platforms and formal channels, don’t trust online advertisements and private recommendations, and don’t click on links that come from unknown sources. Once illegal activities such as gambling are found, they should take the initiative to refuse and report them immediately. Never believe gimmicks such as "generous bonuses" and "one-second cash withdrawal", otherwise they may be bankrupt, heavily in debt, and may be investigated for legal responsibility.

Ticket face design of the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou was announced.

On August 9, 2023, Hangzhou Asian Games Organizing Committee released the sample design of paper tickets and electronic commemorative tickets for sports competitions.

The face design of paper tickets for Hangzhou Asian Games revolves around urban cultural connotation, interactive sharing among the whole people, sublimation of Asian Games theme, etc., based on the core graphic "Moist", with laurel yellow as the main color in the core color system "Light Makeup and Heavy Makeup", combined with the silhouette design of Hangzhou landmark attractions such as "Three Tans Printing the Moon" and various competition sports icons, through the cultural collision between history and modern times, it conveys the unique cultural charm of the host city and forms a unified vision with the image of Hangzhou Asian Games.

In order to appeal to the whole people to help the Green Asian Games, Hangzhou Asian Games recommended the use of electronic tickets.

Finance, taxation and other relevant departments at all levels implement relevant policies and measures to reduce the tax and reduce the fees.

  In the face of the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, how can relevant departments and localities implement policies and measures to increase tax reduction and fee reduction? How do enterprises feel about reducing taxes and fees?

  Help ensure supply and benefit people’s livelihood

  Since the beginning of this year, in the face of the severe and complicated situation, the CPC Central Committee has timely deployed and issued a series of tax reduction and fee reduction policies to release water to raise fish and help market players to bail out development.

  1.073 billion masks, 4.39 million protective clothing and 4.7 million in isolation gown … … After the outbreak, Steady Medical Supplies Co., Ltd. made every effort to ensure the supply of epidemic prevention and treatment materials. "Tax cuts and fee reductions have given us strong support. According to the relevant equipment newly purchased by the key materials production enterprises for epidemic prevention and control to expand production capacity, a one-time pre-tax deduction policy for enterprise income tax is allowed. The company invested about 80 million yuan in various production equipment in Shenzhen, which can be deducted once before tax. " Wu Kezhen, financial director of Steady Medical Care, said.

  In addition to sound medical care, Shenzhen Mindray Bio, Yi Yatong and other enterprises also fully enjoy the tax reduction and fee reduction bonus in the anti-epidemic insurance supply. "The tax reduction and fee reduction policy is highly targeted, which effectively guarantees the prevention and control of the epidemic and the supply of materials." Tang Shukui, director of Shenzhen Finance Bureau, said.

  Among the key support materials for epidemic prevention and control, in addition to medical emergency materials, the supply of daily necessities such as grain and oil is also very important. "After our company filed an application for 1.6 million yuan of incremental value-added tax allowance, it arrived in 2 days." Ms. Tong, a financial officer of Red Dragonfly (Chongqing) Vegetable Oil Co., Ltd., said that at the critical stage of capacity expansion, the receipt of this tax refund fund effectively eased the cash pressure of enterprises.

  It is noteworthy that the policy of tax reduction and fee reduction covers a wide range, which effectively guarantees the basic people’s livelihood. Chongqing has introduced a series of measures to reduce fees within the scope of local power, and provided sufficient supply for people’s basic living needs by ensuring market players and ensuring the stability of the supply chain of the industrial chain. For example, in view of the urgent problems faced by enterprises in returning to work and expanding financing, the use rate of emergency working capital for re-lending will be reduced by half to provide bridge support for enterprises to renew loans. It is estimated that the annual re-lending will be 21 billion yuan, indirectly saving financing costs by 600 million yuan.

  In Shenzhen, only the policy of exempting the income obtained from providing public transportation services, living services and providing residents with express delivery services of essential living materials will reduce the burden on enterprises by 700 million yuan. Take Shenzhen Boxma Xiansheng as an example. From January to April alone, the value-added tax was reduced by more than 3.5 million yuan.

  Enterprises increase vitality and add stamina

  The epidemic situation has brought difficulties to the operation of enterprises, especially small and micro enterprises and private enterprises, which have weak ability to resist risks and are more vulnerable to shocks. On the basis of previous years, this year, we further implemented measures such as tax relief and mitigation, and increased the tax reduction and fee reduction of small and micro enterprises.

  On August 3rd, customers lined up in Modern China Tea Shop Window of the World store to buy milk tea. More than 260 shops in Modern China Tea Shop once pressed the "pause button" after the outbreak, and now they are full of vitality.

In the first half of the year, direct stores reduced the value-added tax by 10.81 million yuan, social security by 3.11 million yuan, and deferred corporate income tax by 1.1 million yuan, greatly reducing operating costs." Cheng Xiaofeng, financial director of Hunan Chayue Catering Company, said that in July, the average revenue of this enterprise store was about 280,000 yuan, setting a record high.

  At the same time, the tax authorities have launched a series of measures to facilitate and speed up the export tax rebate, so as to promote the export tax rebate to speed up and increase efficiency. In Chongqing, the single tax refund of "Full Electronic Refund" arrived on the same day as soon as possible, and the average processing time of tax refund business was reduced to 3 working days, which was more than 50% lower than before.

  Weisheng Information Technology Co., Ltd. is a communication terminal equipment manufacturing enterprise, and handled export tax rebate of 4.2 million yuan in the first half of this year. "Thanks to Hunan’s export tax rebate ‘ Immediately report and do it ’ System, tax refund funds can be received within 1 working day.

  Work together to implement the reduction.

  One point for deployment and nine points for implementation. Finance, taxation and other relevant departments at all levels have implemented relevant policies and measures to reduce taxes and fees in place, which has promoted steady economic and social development.

  Tang Shukui introduced that Shenzhen has established a linkage and information sharing mechanism between finance, taxation, social security, medical insurance and other departments to smooth the policy to the "last mile".

  Shenzhen tax department vigorously promotes "non-contact" taxation, forming a taxation pattern with online taxation as the main channel and comprehensive speed-up and flow control in the lobby. "We conscientiously do a good job in the implementation of preferential policies, non-contact taxation, data services and epidemic prevention and control, and help market players to move forward lightly." Zhang Guojun, Party Secretary and Director of State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China Shenzhen Taxation Bureau, said.

  With the in-depth implementation of various policies and measures to benefit enterprises, the vitality of Shenzhen market players has recovered rapidly. The value-added tax invoice data of 3.5 million taxpayers in the city show that the overall sales revenue of Shenzhen in the first half of the year has fully recovered to the same level of the previous year, and the overall recovery rate is nearly 100%.

  Since the beginning of this year, the Hunan Provincial Department of Finance has established and improved the working mechanism of tax reduction and fee reduction for the first time, set up the coordination mechanism of finance, development and reform, taxation and human society departments, planned tax and fee policies and measures in advance, made a good analysis and calculation of tax reduction and fee reduction, and took the lead in introducing preferential tax and fee policies to support small and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households to resume work. In Yueyang City, the work of tax reduction and fee reduction is included in the assessment of promoting the high-quality development of the private economy and key fiscal and taxation work in the city.

  "In order to ensure that the national tax reduction and fee reduction policies and measures go directly to enterprises and become the main body of the market ‘ Empower ’ We implement grid services and strengthen the follow-up of policy implementation. " Wang Jianping, deputy director of State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China Hunan Provincial Taxation Bureau, said. It is reported that Hunan Province has established a system for cadres of tax authorities at all levels to go to enterprises for research and counseling, to solve tax-related problems such as policy application and qualification identification for enterprises such as Lansi Technology, and to form a policy implementation guide, which is applied in the province.
