Ethan Ruan

　　"Come, turn your chin slightly to the right."

　　Ruan Jingtian was wrapped in a black turtleneck sweater and turned his face to the right. The peaks of his eyebrows were obvious, and the lines of his chin were almost sharp.

　　This is Ethan Ruan under the camera, accurate and sharp.

　　And in the conversation that the camera can’t capture, he has the softest and most relaxed lines. Although his eyebrows are still as flamboyant as the "monk" in "Mengka", the eyes below are not at all incompatible with the warmth of Xiao Kuan in "LOVE". Occasionally, a few strands of ancient spirits belonging to "Fan Ruyi" in "Detective Runaway" sneak out and shine very brightly.

　　"Many things in life are full of surprises and surprises, and this job is an accident for me." The plain ring ring on his left ring finger is not conspicuous, and the smile on the corner of his mouth is slow. "But I gradually discovered that this job is related to people. And people are the most complex and fun things in the world. I like people, whether friends, real-world friends or strangers. I like to study people more and more, not to talk to anyone deliberately, but to carefully observe how he will behave in what situation." Apparently, the older boy who had "never thought of entering this industry" enjoyed the accident.

　　Indeed, it was a beautiful accident that brought a new king to Taiwanese cinema.

　　Ethan Ruan

　　It’s not all real.

　　But emotion must come from the heart

　　As early as when reading Cai Jun’s novel "Murder Like Water," Ruan Jingtian liked this story very much. When Ruan Jingtian learned that director Chen Guo would adapt the novel, Ruan Jingtian had a face-to-face communication with the director. 10 minutes, from conversation to setting the angle, the matter was settled.

　　Ethan loves this kind of face-to-face communication, which is also his exclusive way to win the role of his favorite director.

　　"When communicating with people, I like to communicate face-to-face, eye-to-eye, and communicate the feelings of the heart. These are the most direct feelings I express. In many cases, instead of competing for roles through agents and companies, I prefer to connect through them, and then talk to the director face-to-face, so that I can find out if there is a common idea about the role and the possibility of cooperation."

　　Of course, there were exceptions.

　　When taking over "Mengka", don’t talk about communicating with the director. Ruan Jingtian readily agreed without even reading the script. Director Doudou (director Niu Chengze) directly said that he was "with seeds". "Sometimes this is done because of trust in certain directors and teams. Some people will never harm you, just like your own family, you will have complete trust in him." "Not afraid of not being able to play this role well?" "Of course I will be afraid, but with such a director in front to check, he will not let you go if you can’t play well, and he will never let his play go badly!" He laughed playfully, as if he had succeeded in "plotting" Director Doudou.

　　"Paradise in the Army" is Mr. Ruan’s most recent collaboration with Mr. Dou, and his first film since leaving the army, because Mr. Dou is Mr. Ruan’s "most important person" in the film.

　　The filming process was not easy, and Ruan Jingtian often struggled on the verge of breaking the dam emotionally. Watching "Lao Zhang" Chen Jianbin being captured but helpless, he could not promise a visible tomorrow to his lover. Xiao Bao, one of the thousands of recruits he plays, is wrapped up in the times and fate and has no way to fight back. In several scenes, Ruan Jingtian had to rely on the director’s help to hold back the tears that were about to flow. "Paradise in the Army is a painful and happy process for me. Sometimes it’s very torn, and sometimes I enjoy the feeling of being trapped in the character."

　　For Mr. Ruan, the emotions he wants in every play to be real. Whether it’s the sibling relationship between Chen Yihan and Chen in "LOVE" or the brotherhood of the Prince Gang in "Monga", he has carried these emotions into his life without reservation. "The performance is not all real, but the emotions must come from the most authentic place."

　　Learn to wait

　　Waiting for the next big wave

　　In the early hours of 2006, a slender shadow was speeding skating across the viaduct. Lin Yuxian, the filmmaker, and the cameraman kept their eyes on the camera, while the rest of the crew watched and listened. Their filming was not allowed, and they had to quickly evacuate once the police showed up.

　　For the first-time filmmaker, it was probably the most memorable early morning of his life. "After that time, I thought making movies was a very fun thing for me." In the film’s debut film, "Exit 6," the film’s infinite creative and imaginative space helped him achieve childhood pranks such as hiding in tires and rolling downstairs, riding a trolley to shake his tail, and setting off firecrackers with his butt. Not only that, but the film also opened the door for Ethan to go to the big screen.

　　In 2009, he met with Monga.

　　Ruan Jingtian plays a super-intelligent, reserved and calm gangster He Tianyou ("monk") in the film. His extremely textured performance makes Chen Kexin praise "a superstar is born" and Woo Yusen sees "Chow Yun-fat in a young era". With this film, Ruan Jingtian runs like a dark horse into the competition for the best actor of the 47th Golden Horse Awards.

　　His eyes widened, his sexy mouth held up a full "O", and his muscles stiffened for a moment. On November 20, 2010, when the camera gave a close-up of Ruan Jingtian at the 47th Golden Horse Awards ceremony, he used this expression to explain all his surprise. Although he said with a smile that "he had prepared his acceptance speech ten years ago", he was still stunned by this "happy lightning" in the face of the results of beating Wang Xueqi, Ni Dahong and Qin Hao by a large number of votes.

　　Now talking about the little golden horse, Ruan Jingtian said jokingly: "That’s a trophy!" After a string of boy-like mischievous laughter, he turned indifferent ": In fact, at that age, getting that award was very stressful. I was lost for a while because I didn’t know what to do to qualify for it. Looking back, I found that you don’t have to do anything to qualify for it, because when you gave it back then, it means you have been there before, and you don’t have to copy it every time. As long as you do your best to do every performance after that, you can slowly learn to live peacefully with pressure and emotions."

　　Ruan Jingtian, who came out of the misty forest brought by the "Best Actor", saw more possibilities in himself in "Detective Runaway". "During filming, Director Luo Zhuoyao showed us German silent films. At first I was confused, but after seeing the editing of the movie, I could probably understand it." However, he did not shy away from admitting that "these are still difficult for me to understand, but it is a good experience, which makes me feel that I can slowly play in black humor."

　　Ruan Jingtian, who found himself with countless possibilities in the role, never said "I don’t really like this job, I plan when to retire every day and live a so-called free life". As he grew older and experienced, he began to think more and have more confidence in this job, and at the same time, he asked himself to be "a good actor".

　　"Every director, whether commercial or artistic, as long as you are soft, as long as you are willing to listen, he will always bring you something. For actors, this will make you more able to adapt to every director." Time has taught Ethan Ruan to accumulate thick hair. He can shoot a shot 20 times in the new film "New York New York" to try to be closer to the psychological changes of the characters; he can also seize the three or four precious opportunities given by director Liu Weiqiang in "Blood Drops" to show what the director wants to see the most in the fastest but most accurate state.

　　Before the accumulation had reached a qualitative change, Ethan Ruan also had a long and difficult time. However, his favorite surfing taught him to persevere and wait.

　　"The spirit of surfing is to wait. The experience of life is a lot like surfing. No one is always on the high and no one is always on the low. Learn to live with the low tide and wait for the point to come up. Learn to wait instead of picking up the board and going home. When you get home you don’t have the next wave. Wait, maybe five minutes, maybe an hour, but you have to wait."

　　Taiwan movie story

　　From Niu Chengze to Hou Hsiao-hsien, Ruan Jingtian has worked with these two standard-bearers in the Taiwanese film industry.

　　Doudao Niu Chengze has accompanied Ruan Jingtian all the way from counting steel coins to buying bento to today. In Ruan Jingtian’s eyes, he is not only a "guide", "life mentor", "friend who can scold him as a dog", but also like a "father".

　　At the 50th anniversary ceremony of the 2013 Golden Horse Awards, Ethan said that he was sick and left the table early. Niu Chengze, who was watching the live broadcast, was trembling with anger and smashed the remote control in his hand against the TV. At the time, the crew was rushing to shoot "Paradise in the Army", but Niu Chengze turned a blind eye to Ethan for two weeks. During this time, even if he gave a play to the actors, he only passed the message to Ethan through the assistant director. This "strict father" punishment made Ethan realize the seriousness of his mistake.

　　Director Hou Hsiao-hsien feels completely different from Director Dou. "One is like grandpa and the other is like dad. Director Dou is very demanding, but for me he is the most important person. Because many times his requirements for acting will allow me to go to a state I did not expect and unknown, rather than staying in a place I know. Of course, it is not just the pressure of working with Director Dou. In the face of some directors who have high requirements for acting, it is impossible for me to bring ordinary things to satisfy them. They are like the most tricky guests, and sometimes even the color and fragrance of reason cannot satisfy them. You have to do your best and spend a little ingenuity to meet their requirements."

　　"Chef" Ruan Jingtian arrived in front of the director Hou Hsiao-hsien, obviously with more freedom to play. "It’s a very comfortable state. Because he has no restrictions on what the actor should do, it gives you a huge imagination. For me, this experience is very special. In fact, it was not suitable at first, and in the end, I miss every shot directed by Hou Hsiao-hsien. You will really want to work with him again and bring him something different. Working with him is a great experience!"

　　Nine years, 13 films, 10 films directed by Taiwanese directors, Ethan has an almost persistent love for Taiwanese films. Commemorative growth and local stories are the eternal melodies of Taiwanese films in his heart. "Monga" is a typical Taiwanese film about growth in Ethan’s eyes. Brothers, fate, youth and injuries in growth make Taiwanese films that inspire youth have a sadness that shines through tomorrow. And Taiwan’s story is not just a story of growth but also a story of life. "Shanghai, Beijing, New York, Taipei, these big cities are very similar. People from all over the world take root in the local leaves and develop their own unique way of life."

　　Ethan Ruan

　　It takes fear to be brave

　　Ruan Jingtian’s own Weibo profile is: a timid and brave ordinary person.

　　He was timid. "When you ask me to jump from five or six floors on a wire, it’s a fool to say that I’m not afraid. Of course I’m afraid, but I have a reason to do it, so I have to be brave. Because being afraid is the only way to be brave."

　　More often, he is willing to stay at home and spend time with his two cats in the safest place. One of them rubbed Ethan’s trousers at the Taichung night market, and finally impressed Ethan, who raised a dog, before being driven away for the third time.

　　Now that the 12-year-old cat was old and frail, Ruan Jingtian smiled and said that he had become a veterinarian who gave injections to cats every day. But on second thought, thinking of the cat who had been with him for many years, "If something happens, it will die", a trace of gentle concern and sadness showed in his eyes.

　　He loves silence and also enjoys limits.

　　"What’s your biggest impression of surfing?" he asked excitedly of his hobby. "Summer, the beach, a bikini?" The question caught him off guard.

　　"Haha, but, did you know, Taiwan only has waves in winter!" The slyness in his eyes poured out, as if announcing a shocking secret. "The waves usually appear before 9 o’clock in the morning, mostly between 4 and 6 o’clock. So get up early and go into the water when it’s very cold. It’s hot at noon, and there are no waves, so you can only sleep. So when you actually do something, you will find that it is different from everyone’s stereotypes."

　　Racing is another passion of Ethan Ethan’s. Like many young boys, he has loved racing since he was a child and has been playing with it for seven or eight years since he grew up. In the last two years, he has participated in car racing and won two annual championships. "Racing and acting can put people in a tight environment. You can’t go wrong a lot of the time, because many good shots can only be shot once. In such a tense and precise moment, you have to be very subtle and careful to control every movement of your body, every expression, and cooperate with everyone. The same is true of racing. It’s not about who is faster, but who makes fewer mistakes." He was personally involved in every aspect of car repair, setting up, and practicing, because in his opinion: "You have to be serious about playing! Because if you are not serious, you will not be happy."

　　Recently, the topic of Ruan Jingtian’s relationship has attracted people’s attention. He interacted calmly with netizens on Weibo, and the comments were polarized. Some people praised him Man, while others laughed and scolded him. He said that "this matter is unique and will not appear again in the future." Even if the problem was not originally planned, Ruan Jingtian did not shy away from his most natural emotions at this moment, as he said: "At first you were not wary, the reporter editor asked your girlfriend, and you would say it. But later found that what you said would follow you like a shadow, which is a very annoying thing. Emotions are private, like closing the door when going to the toilet." And his ideal love and family life is like his grandparents, not the passion and ups and downs of the two, but the peace of the years.

　　At the end of the shooting, he signed for the studio. Ruan – Jing – Tian, the rounded corners, the word "Tian" one stroke and one stroke, the willful length of "two legs", Xiao Tian left the last stroke with boyish wanton and innocence. The sun, the moon, the rivers, the river of time flows, initializing the once rampage, Ruan Jingtian’s charm as a man has just revealed a corner.

Jackie Chan, Fan Bingbing Street Love Fight

Shinjuku Incident, due to be released in April, has attracted wide attention because it is directed by the famous director Er Dongsheng and brings together many popular stars such as Jackie Chan, Wu Yanzu, Fan Bingbing, Xu Jinglei and so on. However, this release is limited to South East Asia and Hong Kong, and mainland audiences have not been able to enjoy the film.

　　In "Shinjuku Incident," Fan Bingbing will play Jackie Chan’s girlfriend, a man who is very assertive, enthusiastic on the outside but lonely on the inside. This is also Jackie Chan and Fan Bingbing’s first collaboration on the big screen. Fan Bingbing and Jackie Chan, who are on the run, meet in Kabukicho, Japan, and stage a poignant and romantic love story. In the film, Fan Bingbing brings a group of young girls to make a living under the power struggle of Japanese gangsters, which is a far cry from the bright and beautiful image he has played in the past.

　　In this play, Japanese lines are a new challenge for Fan Bingbing. Fan Bingbing learns things very quickly and has a strong ability to imitate, so the large Japanese lines he just gave her the day before have been memorized the next day, and can be spoken fluently during filming. But Fan Bingbing still admits that learning Japanese is still a bit difficult. Recently, Fan Bingbing has been teaching English, makeup, and changing scenes. In short, all the time she can use during work breaks is practiced hard with foreign teachers. She said that she actually wasted a lot of time while waiting for the play, so she hopes to use her time to enrich herself through learning.

　　"Shinjuku Incident," a film called Jackie Chan’s transformation, also gathers Naoto Takenaka, Gao Jie, Kato Yaya, Qian Jiale, Lu Huiguang, Qin Pei, Lin Xue, Kurata Baozhao and other Chinese and Japanese movie stars. It can be said that the lineup is prosperous.

Recently, the State Administration for Market Regulation issued the "Notice on Continuing to Do a Good Job in Marketing Standards for Takeaway Merchants and Preventing Catering Waste" (hereinafter referred to as the "Notice"), requiring all localities to urge online catering platforms and catering takeaway merchants to strictly implement the "Anti-Food Waste Law of the People’s Republic of China" and other relevant provisions, further consolidate the main responsibility, continue to standardize catering takeaway marketing behavior, and effectively prevent catering waste.

In terms of implementing the main responsibility of online catering platforms, the "Notice" requires that platforms be urged to optimize marketing rules and agreement rules, and to publish appropriate ordering prompts in prominent positions on the page; encourage platforms to improve incentive mechanisms, promote merchants to develop, provide, and promote small meals, set the minimum price of meals reasonably, optimize the price-break discounts collection mechanism, and do not include staple foods in the scope of price-break discounts display; guide platforms to promptly correct irregular marketing practices.

In terms of compacting the main responsibilities of catering takeaway merchants, the "Notice" makes it clear that merchants should be urged to strengthen dynamic management; guide merchants to rationally determine the quantity and weight, provide small portions of meals, truthfully display meal information, and publish appropriate ordering prompts; supervise merchants to standardize marketing behavior and reasonably determine the starting price; encourage the use of food safety seals.

The "Notice" emphasizes that all localities should promote the revision and improvement of standards, increase publicity and implementation, and strengthen the implementation of supervision. Online and offline, at the same frequency, carry out supervision and inspection of food waste prevention and food safety, and continue to carry out "random inspection of restaurants". Those who cause obvious waste, serious waste and refuse to make corrections shall be severely punished according to law and publicly exposed. Strengthen publicity and education, carry out publicity activities, and actively create a good atmosphere.

The male fan broke through the security line and rushed to the stage to give flowers to Andy, who was then besieged.

　　　　protagonist: Andy Lau

　　　　time: Around 11 p.m. on November 6, 2007.

　　　　location: Chengdu Sports Center Stadium, Sichuan Province, Andy Lau China Tour Chengdu Concert

　　　　relevant person: 1. Fans (young men)

　　　　2. Local security guards (several)

　　　　3. Local public safety experts (several)

　　　　causeA male fan crosses two iron barriers during a performance and presents flowers to Liu Tianwang

　　　　Andy Lau China station concert tour recently held the last stop in Chengdu, a male fan broke through the guard line, rushed to the stage to shake hands with Andy and send flowers, security and police immediately out of the block, want to pull the fans away from the scene, Andy kept on the stage told them not to fans rough, in a hurry to jump down more than two meters high stage to protect the fans. The scene suddenly chaotic, all the staff and security rushed to the stage to protect Andy, Andy didn’t even sing, personally took the fan back to the backstage, told the guards not to be rough, only to return to the stage to continue the performance. More than 60,000 audience was moved by his behavior, applause.

　　　　A concert staff member explained in detail over the phone:

　　　　At the end of the performance, at the penultimate song, a male fan rushed out with flowers in his hand. There was a second iron gate in front of the stage, and there were dozens of public safety experts and security guards in front of the gate. They all stood there and patronized the performance. The male fan actually jumped over the second gate in one go, rushed to the front of the stage, and then stood on the speaker to offer flowers to Andy. Several security and public safety experts rushed up, grabbed him and beat him up.

　　　　Andy saw fans being besieged by more than a dozen security and public safety experts on the stage, and kept telling them not to be rude to fans.

　　　　At this moment, I didn’t expect Andy to suddenly make a move that surprised all the staff around us. He jumped off the 2.2-meter-high stage, vigorously pushed away the public safety expert, and said loudly: Don’t hit him, he’s my fan, he’s just giving flowers, there will be no malice. You let him go.

　　　　At this point, the scene is very chaotic. We immediately stopped the surrounding public safety experts, while dissuading Andy Lau, suppressing his anger and preventing the situation from further deteriorating, and then "bet" on Andy, fans and beaters to quickly circle from the black cloth channel to the backstage.

　　　　All of this happened in a short time. I believe the audience in the front row, the reporters, the leaders, and many viewers in the stands saw it. But because of the sudden and short time, many people only saw the actions of the male fans and the actions of the public safety experts and security guards, not Andy’s reaction after jumping off the stage or his words…

　　　　He continued by phone: "Andy Lau is the only one in the world when the singer jumps off the stage to save fans so desperately."

　　　　Andy returned to the stage to continue the performance, disrupting the original program. The song was accompanied by dancers, and the dancers continued to dance according to the original choreography and rhythm. The place and angle of the actors’ performance area were very narrow. Andy suddenly intervened, and the actors were taken aback. In order to avoid Andy, an actor fell off the stage and fell injured. We had to deal with fans, public safety experts, Andy, injured dancers, and the "exit" work that we had already been busy with. Everything rushed in all of a sudden, and we were very busy. Fortunately, we had experience and were not in chaos in the face of danger, so we were guaranteed a smooth finish.

　　　　(Note: "Exit" is a difficult task for us in large-scale individual singing. How can the artist leave completely and quickly after singing the last song, so as to avoid the crowd of tens of thousands of fans, whether the backstage steps are safe and stable, whether the retreat channel is smooth, how the bodyguards protect themselves, how vehicles (including cover cars) walk, although the distance between the backstage and the stadium gate is only tens of meters or 100 meters, but how to "evacuate" quickly, safely and smoothly within one or two minutes is an extremely critical part of the performance. Consideration, design, and execution must be rigorous, meticulous, meticulous, and safe. Otherwise, if there is a problem, the artist will be stranded in the "Wang Yanghai" of the fans, and it will be difficult to advance and retreat, and even life-threatening.)

　　　　"Is that fan hurt?" asked.

　　　　"Fortunately, Andy stopped him in time. He was fine, but he was too frightened and kept crying backstage."

　　　　Andy Andy’s China Tour came to Chengdu, the last stop. I believe that singers in history will jump off the stage to save fans. Andy Lau is the only one in the world who is so desperate. After returning to the stage, the audience kept shouting, regarding Andy as a big hero, and shouting "Andy I love you".

　　　　"I was in District 13 at the time, and I was looking at the stage with a telescope. The whole process was very clear!"

　　　　"At first, I saw the police and security guards rushing towards the front of the stage from all directions. Andy was about to sing and stood in front of the stage, so he looked out to see what was going on. As a result, when he saw the police and security guards stopping a fan, Andy pointed at the police and shouted something (he couldn’t understand the shape of his mouth). However, the police and security guards below ignored him and dragged the fan out (about 10 meters away). Andy jumped down and rushed over. He first tugged at the police, yelled something, and then put a hunchback on the back of the police (or the security guard, I think it was the police, who didn’t pay attention to his clothes). Then the staff immediately came over to pick up Andy and isolate him from the police, but Andy still rushed over, pulled the fan beside him (it was a mess when I rushed over again, I couldn’t see if there was a security guard hitting Andy at my position), and then took it to the exit. There were a lot of people at the exit, so I didn’t see Andy’s figure, but all the dancers ran to the stage in our 13th district (I don’t know if it was looking down or dancing, it was almost the same anyway). Then I saw Andy back on the stage. "

The whole place of Fengjing Ancient Town exudes a charming tranquility and beauty. I am full of yearning for this because it brings me a unique feeling beyond the hustle and bustle of the city.

I was intoxicated by the flowing water on the small bridge in the ancient town. As I strolled on the old stone bridge and walked along the water bank, the clear water murmured softly, contrasting with the reflection under the bridge. The sight made me feel a pleasure in living in harmony with nature, as if time had slowed down here. And I was also attracted by the unique atmosphere of life in the ancient town.

Walking through the narrow stone streets, I saw many exquisite traditional buildings that carried the history and culture of the ancient town. Snack stalls exuded an alluring aroma, and art and handicraft shops displayed exquisite handicrafts. All this brought me an ancient and warm feeling, which made me deeply love this town.

For me, the ancient town brings a sense of tranquility and relaxation. Here, I can escape the hustle and bustle of the city and immerse myself in nature and culture. Every scenery makes me feel refreshed, every detail makes me feel warm. This sense of tranquility makes me feel as if I have traveled through time and space, back to a peaceful and ancient era. Fengjing Ancient Town is not only a picturesque place, but also a beautiful place to soothe the the heart and purify the mind.

　　[Autohome News] On February 23, 2023, Geely Galaxy, a mid-to-high-end new energy series under the Geely brand, unveiled its mystery. In the future, Geely Galaxy will cover two product series of "intelligent electric hybrid" and "intelligent pure electric", and has a new product image, a new generation of styling design and a new channel ecology. Perhaps seeing this, many question marks have emerged in everyone’s mind. Why did Geely make such a series? How will other products be divided in the future? What products will this series have in the future? What are the competitors? How much will it sell? Where to sell it? How to sell it? Don’t worry, with these questions, you will know all about it in 5 minutes.

More exciting videos are available on the Autohome video platform

Highlights of this article:

1. The new energy market is still the Red Sea, and Galaxy is the stepping stone to Geely’s new era

2. Positioning mid-to-high-end new energy, divided into intelligent electric hybrid L series and intelligent pure electric E series, 7 models will be launched in the future, and the first model (|) will be delivered in the second quarter

3. Introduction to the Galaxy L7 model

4. New channels + new ecology, online and offline service integration

5. Under the new rules of the game, Geely Galaxy may indeed become the "Son of Version"

● Why build a galaxy? – The new energy market is still a red ocean

　　In the past two years, the domestic new energy market has seen explosive growth, and it seems that every manufacturer is launching sub-brands and new series to cope with the electrification tide. In 2022,Sales of new energy vehicles in China reached 5.674 million units (Passenger Federation), an increase of 90% year-on-year.But the penetration rate is only 27.6%, still has a considerable market capacity. Geely’s total sales in 2022 are 1.433 million, new energy vehicle sales are 328,700, and the penetration rate exceeds 30% in many months. Compared with many brands focusing on the new energy market, it is not cheap.

"Haval A07, Haval B07 DHT"

　　Take a look at BYD, which has been "surging" all the way, and then look at the new forces that used to be regarded as "inferior horses". The new energy tide has broken through the hearts of many users. Faced with this situation, traditional car brands have more or less expressed their eagerness to embrace electrification. For example, Great Wall will launch more than 10 new energy models in 2023. For example, SAIC Motor Group has set a sales target of 1.50 million new energy vehicles. Behind the exaggerated numbers is the intense hand-to-hand combat under the new energy tide. Even if we are not in it, we can still feel the tragedy.

"New logo of Geely Galaxy"

　　Therefore, Geely, which has been the sales leader of Chinese auto brands for 5 consecutive years, also seems to need to seek some "explosive points"."Goodfellas."According to the opinion in the column, in the foreseeable future, fuel vehicles may be regarded as the foundation, and new energy is the stepping stone to the next era. Because of this, the arrival of Geely Galaxy, which focuses on the field of new energy, can be said to be inevitable.

● Galaxy’s positioning and product planning – positioning mid-to-high-end, mainly targeting the 15-300,000 price range

"Chen Zheng shows the prototype car sludge model"

　　After the arrival of Geely Galaxy, the products under Geely Group will also usher in a structural reorganization. China Star, Boshi, Bing, and Emgrand will form a "Jixing" product series to continue to stabilize the basic market; Geometry brand will return to Geely brand and form a popular pure electric product series under Geely brand; finally, the Galaxy series will focus on the mid-to-high-end new energy market.The main car market of 15-300,000 yuan.The three product sequences have a clear division of labor, with fuel, entry-level new energy, and mid-to-high-end new energy each performing their respective duties. The future blueprint has emerged.

　　In the future, Geely Galaxy will launch 7 products, including Geely Galaxy intelligent pure electric E series and Geely Galaxy intelligent electric hybrid L series, respectively Geely Galaxy E6/E7/E8 and Geely Galaxy L5/L6/L7/L9, the detailed IPO time of each model is as follows:

　　In the future, intelligent hybrid and intelligent pure electric architectures will be built on their own dedicated platforms, among which Geely Galaxy’s intelligent hybrid architecture will cover A0 to B-level products; intelligent pure electric architectures can cover A-level to D-level products.

　　In addition, Geely’s original "SHIELD Battery Safety System" not only prevents spontaneous combustion of batteries, but also builds a complete set of "no blind spot" safety protection systems based on batteries and integrates architecture, vehicle, intelligent control, and cloud. It can pass 8 shields such as "Architecture Ten Gongge Patent, Vehicle Cage Protection, Fast Charge Safety and Worry-free, BMS3.0’Battery Doctor ‘Intelligent Control System" to ensure the safety of systems such as battery pack Pack and battery module.

　　In terms of thermal efficiency, the new generation of Raytheon hybrid engine B-Plus equipped with Raytheon Hybrid 8848 has achieved a peak thermal efficiency of 44.26% in mass production, and the next generation Raytheon hybrid engine with a thermal efficiency of 46% has been in the verification stage. In terms of performance, Raytheon Hybrid 8848 "three-speed variable frequency electric drive" has evolved again. It is the first intelligent electric drive in the world to achieve P1 + P2 dual motor overclocking drive. The combined power of the two-wheel drive reaches 287kW, and a super performance version with a combined power of 488kW will be released in the future.

● Galaxy L7

　　At the press conference, the Galaxy L7, the first model of the Galaxy series, made its debut and started booking at the same time. The new car will be delivered in the second quarter and will be used as a Torch Relay car for the Hangzhou Asian Games. The new car is a plug-in hybrid SUV model, focusing on long cruising range. In terms of appearance, the Galaxy L7 creates a relatively full shape, with a lot of curves in the front part of the car, and the details are also the mainstream style trend of current new energy vehicles. The side lines use a similar slip-back design, but it is not very inclined, so the head space for the rear row is not affected by the shape.

　　In terms of body size, the length, width and height are 4700mmX1905mmX1685mm, and the wheelbase is 2785mm, which is the size of a compact SUV. It is close to the size of BYD Song PLUS and Honda CR-V. For an ordinary family of three, practicality is guaranteed. In addition, the door does not use the hidden door handle that some new energy brands prefer. From the experience of previous winter tests, this traditional door handle will lose some of the overall feeling of the door, but it is convenient to pull, and it can also reduce the possibility of being frozen to death in extreme environments. The rear of the car adopts a through-type tail light, which is also the most mainstream style at present. The simple rear is clearly layered, and the two-color guard at the bottom makes it more visually eye-catching.

　　The interior is designed with a hug style as a whole. The center console is supplemented by multiple large screens, 10.25-inch meter + 13.2-inch center control screen + 16.2-inch passenger screen + 25.6-inch AR HUD. Four display screens provide rich driving information and entertainment information. The pocket block design makes the front center channel more practical, providing more cup holders, storage space and wireless charging positions.

　　For the most important chip of a smart car, the Galaxy L7 has an 8155 chip, which also allows the Galaxy N OS system to be used for faster and smoother control and improved user experience. The boot speed, application response speed and Keyword Spotting speed are all agile. In the field of intelligent driving, the "heaven and earth integrated" version of Galaxy Smart Driving solution based on Geely Satellite will be launched soon. At present, Galaxy Smart Driving can stop in time in the face of stationary targets when cruising at a high speed of 90km/h; Geely Star Smart Computing Center can simulate 100,000 kilometers of intelligent driving behavior training in 1 day, combined with intelligent network professional test field and actual road test, to meet the L3 global certification standard.

　　Geely’s self-developed centimeter-level satellite high-precision positioning module has passed the vehicle-level certification. Through the integration of Geely satellite communication, navigation, and remote sensing technologies, this technology can achieve accurate positioning and never lose contact. It is expected that in 2025, Geely will complete the network of 72 low-orbit satellites, and Geely Galaxy Smart Drive will achieve global positioning without blind spots. In the future, Geely Galaxy Smart Drive will also take the lead in mass production of leading technologies such as cross-layer memory parking, high-speed emergency antelope obstacle avoidance, and low-speed exploration and crossing.

　　In terms of comfort, in addition to enough space, the co-pilot provides a leg support function, as well as heating, ventilation, massage, physiotherapy and other configurations. In theater mode, the seat automatically reverses to a comfortable angle of 35 degrees, providing a good viewing posture.

　　In terms of power, the new generation of Raytheon hybrid technology is equipped with a 3 DHT Pro variable frequency electric drive, using the P1 + P2 solution, which can not only assist the drive, but also drive independently. In terms of performance, it also has remarkable performance, accelerating from 0 to 100km/h in 7.5 seconds, and in the case of power loss, the official average fuel consumption level can also reach 5.23L/100km.

● How does Geely Galaxy sell? – New channel + new ecology, online and offline service integration

　　As a new mid-to-high-end new energy series, Geely Galaxy will create a new channel ecosystem. Among them, the new channel will have two models of "direct connection to users" and "agent distribution", which will make orders online, make prices more transparent and direct, and avoid the price chaos that once plagued everyone.

　　On the offline side, Geely Galaxy will provide "experience" and "delivery" services, and will lay direct experience stores in cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou and Shenzhen. It is reported that 350-450 experience stores will be established in 2023, and the number of Geely Galaxy experience stores will reach 650 in the future.

　　In addition, Geely will also introduce new user experience and service standards. For example, at the after-sales services level, Geely Galaxy will set 247 new standards; at the same time, Geely Galaxy will also create a new app to open a new channel for users to communicate online, and you can also find interested communities in the app; it is worth mentioning that half of the space in Geely Galaxy’s offline stores will be set aside to provide users with more experience and create a "user space". This user ecosystem seems to be quite popular in the current new energy market. In addition to changing to online services, services also pay more attention to users’ sense of experience and belonging.

● Geely Galaxy’s Prospect Analysis – Can You Really "Look Up at the Galaxy"?

　　The establishment of a new product series often has a clear purpose. Geely has obviously paved the way for Galaxy, and the geometric brand has returned to Geely, focusing on the entry-level mass market, and has entrusted the mid-to-high-end new energy series to Galaxy. Perhaps, just like Dynasty and Ocean Network to BYD, Galaxy not only represents a new product series, but will also become a label existence in the future.

　　In 2022, Geely’s new energy vehicle sales 328,700, compared to 2021 tripled, better than the average growth rate of the industry, without the Galaxy is still the case, with the arrival of the Galaxy, combined with the new energy penetration rate in 2023 or more than 30%, although the new energy track is crowded, but it has left a relatively open space for the Galaxy to play.

　　Of course, from the perspective of the first model launched by Galaxy, the Galaxy L7 is positioned as a compact SUV, with a long range, equipped with a new generation of Raytheon electric hybrid technology, equipped with 3 DHT Pro variable frequency electric drive, and using the P1 + P2 scheme, it can not only assist in driving, but also drive independently. The acceleration from 0 to 100km/h is 7.5 seconds. In the case of power loss, the official average fuel consumption level can also reach 5.23L/100km.

　　Judging from these data, Galaxy, which is positioned as "mid-to-high-end", is not eager to challenge higher-level fields, but starts with the "unavoidable choice" – the compact SUV market. This level is also the most difficult market segment. BYD Song PLUS New Energy, Haval H6 (PHEV version has been launched), Changan CS75 PLUS (intelligent iDD version will be launched soon) and other powerful products are eyeing. Looking at the sales rankings for nearly half a year, the former ace players under overseas brands have almost been squeezed out of the top five. Are overseas brands panicking? Perhaps the news of Toyota’s bZ4X price reduction not long ago is a very objective answer, which is enough to see that the rules of the game in the domestic market have really changed.

　　Using the game as a comparison, each version update will have a corresponding "version of the child" birth, the former strong hero may be reduced to a sewer character, version abandoned child. As a product of new rules and new versions, we seem to have reason to believe that, combined with the latest trends and user preferences in the current market, coupled with Geely’s understanding of the domestic market over the years, Galaxy will definitely follow the trend and show some strength; as for what height can be reached, it is worth looking forward to.

　　Internally, Geely Galaxy seems to be facing some problems as well. Don’t forget that Geely Group also holds hands such as Lynk & Co, Extreme Krypton, Extreme Star, Volvo, and even Lotus. According to the brand positioning and product price range currently given, Geely Galaxy series products are likely to overlap with these brands in the future. At that time, how to form a differentiated style with them? Presumably this is a big question in the hearts of many friends.

"Site map of Geely’s internal communication meeting"

　　In the previous internal communication meeting, I also discussed this issue with manufacturers, and finally came to the conclusion that there are various consumer groups in the market, and different product types and design concepts can be used to attract different audiences. To give a more practical example, when the Lynk & Co or even the JK brand was just born, it also had some price overlap with the products of the Geely brand, but now, these contradictions about price overlap do not seem to have been transferred to the final choice of users. All in all, products at the same price and positioning can win the favor of users with different needs through different design concepts, configuration performance, etc. Therefore, friends who are worried about Geely Galaxy’s "involution" are completely unnecessary.

Editor’s summary:

　　At the end of the article, I would like to say some digressions. Previously, Geely Galaxy released a poster, which triggered a wave of heated discussions. "Galaxy, the starry sky that everyone looks up to", the breadth and depth of Chinese immediately reminded us of the high-end brand Look Up released by BYD before, and then many Chinese brands such as Look Up, Changan Deep Blue, Haval, Lantu, Changan, Dongfeng, etc. released warm-up posters one after another. This wave of collective fighting has gone beyond the scope of marketing, and even made me feel inexplicably moved.

　　In the past, such a scene may have only appeared on those so-called "tall" overseas brands, the most classic of which was the flirting and falling in love and killing of the BBA troika. Now, Chinese brands have also begun to do the same in the new energy market, and instead of arousing users’ resentment, they are viewed with a peaceful and even slightly proud attitude. This not only shows the confidence of the brand, but also seems to represent the rise of a new power and the germination of a new culture. Perhaps, seeing a beautiful and appropriately warm-up poster, many friends will feel a sense of relief that "their children have finally become talents".

　　Finally, a very interesting quote was posted during the hot discussion of the poster: "Whether it is’looking up at the Milky Way ‘,’ the deep blue ‘,’ the vast universe ‘,’ the Milky Way Yaoguang ‘or’the sea of stars’, the Chinese car brands born under the red flag, everyone has a bright future."

For more than 30 years, Wang Jianlin, the head of Wanda, has many friends, and even more people claim to be his friends, but there are not many "true friends" who are willing and able to pull him in times of crisis. Especially after 2018, Wang Jianlin’s circle of friends, some are imprisoned, some are too busy to care for themselves, and they still expect him to pull a hand.

If the standard of "true friends" is never to leave, Pony Ma, the founder of Tencent, will definitely be on the list of Wang Jianlin’s circle of friends and rank among the top.

On July 21, the shareholders of Beijing Wanda Investment Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Wanda Investment") changed, and 49% of Wanda Investment’s equity was transferred to Shanghai Ruyi Film and Television Production Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Shanghai Ruyi").

On the evening of July 23, the details of the transaction emerged. The buyer, China Ruyi (00136.HK), announced that it had entered into an equity transfer agreement on July 20, and the transaction consideration of 49% of the shares was 2.262 billion yuan.

Wanda Investment is the controlling shareholder of Wanda Film. Including this transaction, this is the fifth transfer of equity assets involving Wanda Film this year. Through these transactions, Wanda has cashed out about 7 billion yuan, part of which is used to "step on the point" to repay the debt. The latest news shows that Wanda has transferred the principal and interest funds of 400 million US dollars of bonds due on July 23.

Why should Shanghai Confucianism and Italy send charcoal in a hurry to solve Wanda’s urgent need to repay its debts? The grass snake gray line is hidden in its capital background.

Public information shows that Shanghai Ruyi is a wholly-owned subsidiary of China RuyiEvergrandeAfter several transactions, Tencent is now the controlling shareholder.

At present, the prospect of Wanda’s listing is uncertain, the debt concentration expires, and the selling of assets to cash in can’t help but remind the outside world of six years ago, also under the pressure of debt, Wanda sold off its assets and "broke its arm to survive". After that transformation and privatization, in early 2018, it was Tencent that took the lead, joined JD.com, Sunac, and invested 34 billion yuan in Wanda to "untie" Wanda and support its valuation.

Wang Jianlin was born in the tail of the planned economy, grew up in Sichuan, joined the army in Jilin, and started in Liaoning; Pony Ma grew up in Shenzhen, the bridgehead of reform and opening up. The two people, who are 18 years apart, have very different personalities and experiences. It is in the tide of private economy that they gradually come to the same end.

After taking the lead in investing in Wanda, Wang Jianlin and Pony Ma have been tied to the same boat. From the "Teng Million" cooperation in 2014, to Tencent’s leading investment in 2018, and then to the current delivery of life-saving money, Wanda’s two most dangerous turns, Tencent’s figure has always been around.

"After years of business and wealth, everything has always come to nothing." This is a poem written by Wang Jianlin many years ago. If not for Pony Ma, the metaphor of "everything" coming to nothing may have come true.

01

The first turning point in the lives of 68-year-old Wang Jianlin and 51-year-old Pony Ma both took place in 1989.

In 1986, Wang Jianlin switched from the army to serve as the office director of the Xigang District People’s Government of Dalian City. In 1989, he came to Xigang District Housing Development Company as the general manager, which was the predecessor of Wanda.

Also in 1989, Pony Ma was admitted to Shenzhen University. Shenzhen University did not have the astronomy department that Pony Ma was most interested in, so he settled for the next best thing and entered the computer major of the Department of Electronic Engineering.

From the perspective of the time, the two people were of different ages and backgrounds, and their life paths were very different, so there was no possibility of intersection. But with the vigorous development of the private economy, the two gradually came together on the road to business.

In September 2013, Hurun rich list, Wang Jianlin with 135 billion yuan wealth, more than Zong Qinghou family, the first time to become the Chinese mainland "richest man", this is the first time the real estate boss to get the "richest man" title. On the list, Pony Ma with 62 billion yuan wealth ranked third, when real estate was in full swing, the Internet is in the limelight, the former’s growth rate made other industries look at, the Internet’s growth rate made real estate developers are shocked.

As a commercial real estate leader, Wanda began to feel pressure from e-commerce platforms. Wang Jianlin once said that he "wants to establish an Internet e-commerce website that is different from Taobao and JD.com".

And Tencent, which has a social empire, also wants to make a difference in the field of e-commerce, so in 2014, facing a common opponent, Wang Jianlin and Pony Ma came together as "e-commerce partners".

In 2014, Wang Jianlin introduced Tencent, Baidu, the three giants announced the establishment of Wanda e-commerce company, Wanda Group held 70%, Tencent, Baidu held 15%, and plans to invest in the next five years 20 billion, to build the world’s largest O2O electricity supplier company.

Wang Jianlin’s expectations for this project are not high, and the lineup of "Teng Million" is also luxurious enough, but this seemingly strong and powerful commercial aircraft carrier is unfavorable. After the first phase of 5 billion yuan of funds burned out, Tencent and Baidu announced their withdrawal, and Wanda E-commerce ended hastily.

The failure of the "Teng Million" alliance is not surprising. The three companies seem to be strong, but none of them have e-commerce genes. The experience of the leading party Wanda in traditional commercial real estate has become a shackle for its e-commerce development.

This cooperation ended without success, Wang Jianlin 5 billion bought a lesson, but also harvested the friend of Ma Yun, this friendship will play a key role in the future.

02

In June 2017, a risk investigation letter from the China Banking Regulatory Commission pushed Wanda to the bottom, and Wanda’s six overseas project financing encountered strict control.

Real estate is a high-wire business, and the financing channel is the balance pole held by real estate developers. The two ends of the pole are assets and liabilities. The investigation of the Banking Regulatory Commission has greatly affected Wanda’s financing ability, and Wang Jianlin has to sell assets.

In July 2017, Wanda’s 13 cultural tourism projects and 77 hotels were packaged and sold to Sunac and R & F. Speaking to the media, Wang Jianlin said: "The transfer of the project can greatly reduce the debt of Wanda Commercial and further realize asset-light operation."

The move to sell assets at a low price has made the outside world question Wanda’s capital chain, but from the logic of buying and selling, Wanda sold assets at the same time, but also quickly reduced its liabilities, without hurting its bones. According to the financial report data, Wanda Group’s revenue in 2018 was 2142.8 billion yuan, completing 101.6% of the annual plan.

Wanda was able to escape from this crisis, except for Wang Jianlin’s decisive means of "breaking the wrist of a strong man", the actions of Pony Ma and others were also contributed.

On January 29, 2018, the official website of Wanda Group announced that Tencent Holdings, as the main sponsor, signed an agreement with Sunac, JD.com, Sunac China and Wanda Commercial in Beijing, planning to invest 34 billion yuan to acquire about 14% of the shares held by investors when Wanda Commercial Hong Kong H shares were delisted. According to this calculation, the total valuation of Wanda Commercial exceeded 240 billion ********ch higher than the 196.50 billion yuan at the time of delisting.

For Wang Jianlin, this financing is "three birds with one arrow". First, this financing solves the problem of overseas debt; second, by partnering with Tencent again, Wanda can tell the story of "new consumption" to the outside world; third, the support of the four giants’ real money allows the outside world to re-see Wandai, and Wang Jianlin can accumulate strength and seek listing again.

According to media reports, the deal was personally decided by the "No. 1" of the parties. Wang Jianlin personally called Pony Ma, Zhang Jindong, Sun Hongbin, and Richard Liu. After the four were basically finalized, they were handed over to the investment department to follow the procedure. The transaction took less than half a month from negotiation to finalization.

At that time, Caixin reported that this was a "marriage-style investment", and the two most important parties in the "marriage" were of course Wang Jianlin and Pony Ma.

Although the previous cooperation ended in vain, the degree of attention that Pony Ma attached to this cooperation only increased. In May 2019, the always low-key Pony Ma, surrounded by security and staff, walked into Wanda Plaza in Beijing Fengtai Science and Technology Park.

And Wang Jianlin, who is known as "never shopping", spent 2 hours walking around the Wanda Plaza side by side with Pony Ma. The online and offline "traffic king" is framed in the same frame, which aroused the imagination of the outside world.

03

However, less than a year after the same frame, the COVID-19 pandemic arrived, and both companies were affected. No matter how few of them shared the same frame, the vision of new consumption and smart retail was rarely mentioned again. It was not until the listing of Wanda Commercial Management was blocked and Wanda was once again mired in rumors of a liquidity crisis that Pony Ma’s figure reappeared behind Wang Jianlin.

In 2018, Wanda Commercial renamed itself Wanda Commercial Management and divested its real estate development business. In 2021, Wanda Commercial Management divested its business again, further lightening its assets, and seeking to re-list through its subsidiary Zhuhai Wanda Commercial Management.

In order to promote the listing, Zhuhai Wanda Commercial Management has introduced a strategic financing of up to 38 billion yuan in 2021, and the investor lineup is luxurious, including CITIC, China Merchants Group,Country GardenWait, Tencent is also among them.

However, Zhuhai Wanda Commercial Management has failed three times in a row and submitted its fourth statement on June 28 this year.

The IPO time table has been delayed frequently. In addition to facing the pressure of failing to gamble and repaying tens of billions of investment funds with principal and interest, under the influence of pessimism, Wanda has once again fallen into a liquidity crisis. On June 28, Wanda Commercial Management announced that the registration process of 6 billion yuan corporate bonds previously applied for issuance was suspended, and Fitch, Standard & Poor’s and other institutions have also downgraded Wanda’s rating.

In order to re-prop up the "balance pole", Wang Jianlin had to sell assets again. Since March this year, Wanda’s companies have transferred shares and assets related to Wanda Film five times, cashing out about 7 billion yuan. The latest transaction, the opponent is China’s Confucianism controlled by Tencent, and Tencent’s living water has once again flowed to Wanda.

Of course, this time to help Wanda, not only Ma Yun alone, in July 11th, Wanda investment also 2.173 billion yuan trading consideration to the Oriental wealth controller wife Lu Lili transferred 180 million shares of Wanda Film stock.

In fact, under the accelerated recovery of the entertainment industry, Wanda Film is currently one of the few chips for Wang Jianlin to ease liquidity pressure. IPG China Chief Economist Bai Wenxi told Lunch Finance that Wanda Film is currently one of the listed company targets under Wanda Group that are of good quality and easy to strategically transfer or reduce holdings in exchange for repayment.

In addition to selling cultural assets, in May this year, Wanda also plans to sell a payment license for 1 billion yuan to rescue the emergency. Douyin Zhang Yiming is a potential buyer. At present, the two parties have initially contacted, and the transaction has not yet been settled.

For more than 30 years, Wang Jianlin has had both highs and lows in the market, and he has also been used to the ups and downs of his partners and competitors. Since 2013, Wanda has cooperated with real estate companies such as Sunac, R & F, Vanke, and has also intersected with Internet upstarts such as Baidu, Tencent, and Ali. However, in the two important turns of Wanda, only Tencent has always "never left".

From a business perspective, Wang Jianlin has keenly observed the huge changes brought about by the Internet to business, and Pony Ma also realized that online development must ultimately serve offline, which is the basis for the cooperation between the two. In an article published by CCTV recently, Pony Ma said that "the role of the platform economy in empowering the real economy, promoting technological innovation and exploring the international market is increasingly prominent".

The common goal of the two sides is only the basis for cooperation. At present, Wanda wants to sell assets, and the top Internet companies are the few buyers who have the strength to take over.

Of course, the only buyers who are capable and willing are not Ma Yun. Wang Jianlin’s Moments may welcome new members, such as Zhang Yiming, but under the long-term deep interest binding, Ma Yun may be the most important old friend of Wang Jianlin at present.

The "Galaxy Offensive" is playing out strongly in China’s electric hybrid market.

On May 31st, after Geely Galaxy L7 was listed at the "shock price" of 138,700 – 173,700, on June 5th, Geely Galaxy welcomed the full opening of "100 cities and 100 stores". From the comprehensive refresh of products to services, Geely’s all-round "Galaxy Offensive" without dead ends has brought a strong "Galaxy Shock" to the Chinese electric hybrid market.

"We’re going to do the hard and right thing."

This is a sentence that was repeatedly emphasized in media interviews by Fan Junyi, general manager of Geely Automobile Sales Company, and Yi Xinyu, executive vice president of Geely Brand Research Institute of Geely Automobile Group, after the listing of Geely Galaxy L7 on May 31.

As far as the Galaxy L7 model is concerned, it is indeed "difficult and correct". Its "difficult" lies in the high standards in vehicle manufacturing, as well as the timing and pricing of entering the market. However, these "difficulties" also make the Galaxy L7 "incomparably correct".

Let’s talk about the price first, the official guide price of Geely Galaxy L7 is 138,700 – 173,700, if used with "2,000 yuan to 6,000 yuan expansion gift", the price can even be as low as 134,700 – 169,700.

Giving such a "bottom fishing" price is really difficult for Geely. After all, the ultra-high product power of the Galaxy L7 is visible to the naked eye. Its entire system is equipped with "Raytheon Electric Hybrid 8848", the new "Galaxy NOS", and Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 car chips… These standard features make this pricing almost unprofitable.

Of course, this price is not only "difficult" for Geely itself, but also makes the competition in the entire hybrid car market segment more difficult.

Don’t forget, Galaxy L7 in this market segment, with the guide price 135,800 – 165,800 BYD Song Pro DM-i and the guide price 139,800 – 156,800 Haval Xiaolong these two direct competitors. Fan Junyi admitted that until the day before the listing to finalize the price strategy fully considered the future competitors may "fight back".

In the eyes of Kung Fu Automobile, behind the "bold" pricing of Geely Galaxy L7, what is needed is to "come first" in the electric hybrid market, and at the same time, it is also a concentrated embodiment of implementing its own "value war".

As Fan Junyi said"Galaxy L7 is determined to become the first camp of domestic electric hybrid SUVs."

(1) "High-value" product strength is the core competitiveness

Those who are familiar with Geely must know that in many sub-sectors in the past, Geely was "late mover" most of the time, but Geely was able to "come later and come first" most of the time. Geely’s secret is to create high-value products that users can perceive.

From the early Emgrand, to Borui and Boyue in the 3.0 era, and then to the "China Star" in the 4.0 era. Today, as the first model of the new series, the Galaxy L7 is still the same. Including "Thor Electric Hybrid 8848", "Pamper Co-pilot", "Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155" and so on, basically most of the technologies and configurations we can hear at the Galaxy brand launch can be seen in this Galaxy L7 starting at less than 140,000.

When asked what it is better than its direct competitors, Fan Junyi said that Geely will not take the initiative to attack others, but will only talk about its own good side. He believes that as long as these are clarified, consumers will naturally pay.

"What kind of things can make consumers pay, I want to talk about a few points:

First, in terms of super electric mixtures, only Geely has three gears on the market at present;

Second, in terms of safety, acupuncture is only the entry standard for SHIELD batteries. In addition to acupuncture, whether you pack a whole package or assemble it into a whole vehicle, this set of safety system standards is Geely’s confidence;

Third, the smart cockpit is equipped with a flagship 8155 chip + Galaxy N OS system as standard, which not only provides a smooth interactive experience, but also supports global customization.

Fourth, enjoy the experience, the only electric hybrid SUV in the same class equipped with "pet co-pilot". They don’t have any of the points I just mentioned. "Fan Junyi said.

In the eyes of Kung Fu Motors, Geely has never been stingy in affirming the value of the Galaxy L7. Whether at the press conference or in official materials, Geely has repeatedly mentioned that the Galaxy L7 is currently the safest electric hybrid SUV, and it is also the only product on the market that maximizes the advantages of plug-in hybrid SUVs.

But to achieve the ultimate product experience, it is easy to say, but very difficult to do. Take the safety of power batteries as an example, Galaxy L7 has passed various extreme tests to perfectly demonstrate the characteristics of Aegis batteries. For example, the battery acupuncture experiment that friendly brands are very much looking at is just the beginning on Aegis batteries.

In addition, Aegis batteries have also undergone various tests that far exceed industry standards. For example, seawater immersion tests, external fire tests, etc., Aegis batteries are tested to standards that far exceed national regulations.

"We went to the most authoritative crash testing agency in China, the China Automotive Research and Automotive Safety Technology Center, to conduct four vehicle-level battery safety tests, and successfully passed the vehicle speed 40km/h forward scraping bottom, the vehicle speed 7km/h rear scraping bottom, the vehicle 20km/h negative impact and the vehicle bottom support four vehicle-level battery safety tests." Fan Junyi said that in the process of communicating with users, Geely found that many scraping bottom can cause new energy vehicles to overheat.

"In the era of fuel vehicles, there are many criteria for judging a good car, such as driving control, power, chassis, acceleration, etc. In the era of new energy, where are the criteria for judging a good car? There is no standard answer in the industry. Geely Galaxy’s requirements for itself are to achieve the ultimate in battery safety, power performance, comfort configuration and intelligent enjoyment!" Fan Junyi said.

(2) The "car builder" revolves around the user

Looking at the ultimate product strength of the Galaxy L7, it is not difficult to find a detail, that is, whether it is the test of the Aegis battery or the various configurations of the Galaxy L7, it is inseparable from the four words "user communication".

Yi Xinyu believes that:"The word’car builder ‘is the highest name in the automotive industry. In fact, a car builder is to do the difficult and correct thing and revolve around the user."

In fact, before the launch of the Galaxy L7, Fan Junyi personally led the sales team to visit many cities across the country to conduct user research: "From the development of colors, the selection of configurations, to the locking of interior colors, and the final pricing, we have all referred to user suggestions."

Fan Junyi said that in terms of safety and quality, the reason why Geely dares to say that the Galaxy L7 has reached the industry benchmark is because Geely itself has the four hard core strengths of "car builders". The first is the strict control of first-class quality; the second is the perfect intelligent manufacturing system; the third is the strong technical reserve and research and development heritage; and the fourth is the in-depth understanding of users and the market.

In this context, Geely relies on the four hardcore strengths of the "car builder" to create a "new generation" user experience in four aspects of the Galaxy L7. In Fan Junyi’s words, it can be summed up as: a new generation of safety standards, a new generation of super hybrid, a new generation of smart cockpit and a new generation of comfortable experience.

"What we want to do is to popularize the super electric hybrid smart SUV. Since it is a popularizer, I will definitely come with sincerity."Fan Junyi believes that the ultimate product experience brings users high user value, and this is the "difficult and correct thing".

According to the plan, Geely Galaxy, which specializes in high-value new energy product series, plans to launch a number of products in the second half of this year. The Galaxy series will open up a new situation for Geely in the new energy battlefield.

Fan Junyi said that Galaxy focuses on high-value new energy vehicles. It is divided into "intelligent electric hybrid L series" and "intelligent pure electric E series", focusing on the most mainstream new energy market of 20-300,000, and aims to become the benchmark of various market segments.

Fan Junyi also revealed that in the second half of this year, Galaxy has two more products on the market, among which the electric hybrid product is the sedan L6, and the L6 has its own characteristics, is a high-value product, and is also highly intelligent. The third product is the E8, and the prototype car is Galaxy Light, which will be launched in the fourth quarter of this year.

"So in the second half of this year, the Galaxy series has an electric hybrid SUV, an electric hybrid car, and a mid-to-high-end pure electric product. The future of the entire Galaxy is promising, and the sales volume is predictable. It can also drive the proportion of the entire Geely new energy to increase, and drive the entire Geely system to be completely new and take a solid step." Fan Junyi said.

In addition to the formation of the "Galaxy Fleet" at the product level, the "Geely Galaxy 100 Cities 100 Stores" that have just opened one after another will also accelerate the transformation and upgrading of the user experience and after-sales services of new energy products. In terms of the number of channels, Geely Galaxy has planned 650 to 700 across the country. At present, nearly 200 have been formed and completed. By the end of June, there will be nearly 400, 200 experience stores, and 200 display spaces.

"The future price war must not be the final way out, it must be a value war, an experience war, and a service war. When we say comprehensive innovation, we not only mean the comprehensive innovation of Geely manufacturers, but also drive Geely dealers to carry out comprehensive innovation. The improvement of user experience is the core competitiveness of the future."Fan Junyi said that with the refresh of user experience as the center, Geely Galaxy will comprehensively innovate in channel management and operation, and make user satisfaction the standard of Geely Galaxy with "a new generation of channel ecology, a new generation of service standards, and a new generation of user experience"!

(3) Kung Fu shooting

It’s hard to give users high-value products that "want, want, and want" at a starting price of less than 140,000. But Geely Galaxy, which has plunged into the "narrow gate", has done it. This is the right thing, so that Geely, the latecomer of the electric hybrid track, has the voice over the rules.

As Fan Junyi said, "What Geely has to do is to accomplish the whole task at one stroke on the road of new energy, take the most difficult road, do the most correct thing, and become the best choice for users."

Geely and Volvo merge

    As the flagship SUV model based on CMA super matrix structure jointly developed by Geely Automobile and Volvo Automobile, the 2.0TD engine of Xingyue L is the high-end power product of Volvo Drive-E — — VEP4 inline four-cylinder all-aluminum turbocharged mid-range direct injection gasoline engine takes into account the high performance of luxury cars and the economy and energy saving of A-class SUVs, and completely subverts the product value of strong joint venture brands. The engine is made of all-aluminum and has obvious advantages in light weight, low fuel consumption and NVH. It has won the "Top Ten Engines of Ward" for three years in a row, and has been widely used in Volvo XC90, Volvo S90, Lectra 03, Lectra 03+,Lectra 05 and other models, and its global cumulative sales have exceeded one million. In addition, relying on the intergenerational leading "electronic and electrical architecture", the Drive-E engine has a future-oriented electrification design concept, which also means that the Drive-E engine has more room for intelligent evolution and can continuously create more extreme driving experience for users.

Drive-E 2.0TD engine

    The data shows that the 2.0TD engine of the whole system of Xingyue L has two versions of medium and high power. The medium power version has a maximum power of 160kW and a maximum torque of 325 N m. The transmission system is matched with a 7-speed wet DCT gearbox, and the maximum transmission efficiency can reach 97.2%. This gearbox has high transmission efficiency and strong economy, and is well-known in shifting logic and speed, fuel economy and other aspects. It has shipped over one million vehicles worldwide and its quality is stable and reliable. The high-power version has a maximum power of 175kW and a maximum torque of 350N·m, matching the world-leading Aisin 8AT gearbox. Aisin 8AT gearbox has many advantages, such as high reliability, smooth shifting, light weight, low noise and small vibration. At present, it is mostly used in many ultra-luxury models such as Porsche Cayenne and Volkswagen Touareg, and its market share ranks first in the world. The two sets of power combinations are perfectly matched. After full market verification, the powertrain of Xingyue L far exceeds the mainstream SUVs of strong joint venture brands such as Volkswagen Tiguan L, Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4 Rongfang in terms of maximum power and maximum torque.

Drive-E 2.0TD engine

    As a Nordic luxury power, this 2.0TD engine is Volvo’s manufacturing standard, luxurious technology, micron factory, world quality, mature and reliable, powerful, efficient and fuel-saving, achieving 2.0T power, with only 1.5T fuel consumption. It also has a unique supercharging mode, with a wide peak torque burst range of 1800~4500 rpm. Because the engine uses a low inertia turbocharger, when the engine speed reaches 1000rpm, the turbine can intervene to eliminate the turbine hysteresis and improve the response speed. The maximum speed of the turbocharger can reach 240000rpm, and the power response is rapid, so that the engine can provide more sufficient power reserve in the middle and high speed range.

    It is worth mentioning that this Drive-E engine is not only mounted on luxury models such as Volvo XC90, but also the only mass-produced product that has been tested by the track and is closest to the racing engine. As the first car under CMA modular architecture — — Lectra 03 was equipped with this engine and won the first "World Champion" of China Automobile in WTCR’s world-class events. It has the same origin with the world and has been tested by the track, which fully verified the reliable quality and ultimate performance of this engine in many aspects.

Geely xingyue l

    Judging from the published product information, the high performance, high intelligence and high value of Xingyue L have become a new emboldened force to subvert the market structure of joint venture SUV. With the merger of Geely and Volvo and the establishment of a new company for the merger of powertrain business, the products of Geely and Volvo will continue to be empowered in the future. Coupled with the advanced technology of CMA Super Matrix, Xingyue L will not only become another "cow" of Geely’s global SUV strategy, but also represent China Auto and mainstream joint venture brands to compete in the SUV market.
