Today is the beginning of spring, and it is also the Sunday of the Spring Festival holiday. The only consolation at work today seems to be that there are 5 days left to celebrate the New Year.
The week's car talk usually sent on the weekend is a relaxed and pleasant ridicule of the week's car market, and the weekday weekend plainly covers this car talk with a layer of melancholy.
It's almost the New Year, so this week's car market is also related to keywords such as winter and New Year. First of all, the Chinese New Year is approaching, and Shanghai's Pudong Airport announced that it will ban ride-hailing services from operating at Pudong Airport. As soon as this news came out, it immediately detonated the Internet. This rule started on the day I landed in Shanghai on a business trip, and luckily I landed at Hongqiao Airport that day.
The reason is a notice on the prohibition of online car-hailing operations at Pudong Airport, which shows that in order to ensure the smooth and orderly landside traffic at Pudong Airport, especially during the Spring Festival travel period, according to the "Several Regulations on the Administration of Online Taxi Reservation Services in Shanghai", online car-hailing is strictly prohibited from soliciting passengers in the Pudong Airport area.
In other words, major online car-hailing platforms are prohibited from dispatching orders to online car-hailing vehicles that start from Pudong Airport, and online car-hailing drivers can only come out empty when they receive orders to send them to Pudong Airport. From the beginning of the operation, the major platforms have been covered with all kinds of ridicule, most of them are waiting for the long queue in the cold wind, and there are also fixed-price drivers taking the opportunity to solicit passengers and so on.
The original intention of formulating the rules is to solve the problem of waiting for a long time without a list for taxis, but the people believe that the system cannot be used to force the choice, and some people think that taxi storage is an inefficient model, and the online car-hailing does not need to store cars because of the technical progress of the uncle's basic algorithm, which makes the matching of supply and demand more efficient, and it is a progress to be replaced by a more efficient model.
In fact, there is a certain amount of truth in the views of all parties, since my work also involves frequent business trips, I thought about why I prefer to play online car-hailing, probably because online car-hailing can know in advance**, unlike taxis that often give me a surprise on **. This is Shanghai, a demon (ghost) capital (city) with a starting price of 21 yuan per night.
The online cynicism was unimpressed, but Guangzhou encouraged online ride-hailing to slap him in the face. Soon, the Guangzhou Municipal People's ** Information Office held a series of press conferences on the 2024 Spring Festival activities, and its deputy director of the Transportation Bureau said, "We encourage online car-hailing to enter airports and other hubs to take orders, and assist online car-hailing platforms to increase information push." ”
In fact, excessive intervention and protection of one side of the market competition is not only unfair, but the weak party will also be more reluctant to make progress because of dependence on help, and the former Chinese auto market is the best proof.
Before the Spring Festival, the happiest thing for workers is to get a good year-end bonus, and the saddest thing is that they have not yet received the year-end bonus or have no year-end bonus. No, Musk on the other side of the ocean was deprived of the year-end bonus, Musk was furious, it seems that the world's richest man will break the defense without the year-end bonus.
A judge in Delaware, USA, rejected Tesla's $55 billion (about 3,906.) for its CEO Elon Musk on the grounds that it was overpaid700 million yuan) remuneration package, which will undoubtedly have a significant impact on his personal wealth situation.
Musk immediately posted on social platforms: "Do not register a company in Delaware, and it is recommended to register in Nevada or Texas." ”
Subsequently, Musk also launched a vote on "whether Tesla should change its registration place to Texas", which has more than 440,000 netizens voted, and more than 90% of netizens voted in favor.
Although Musk is only the Chinese New Year, and the world's richest man will not cut back on food and clothing without this salary, the workers still empathize fiercely.
And in China, there is also a car president who started a tight New Year. This is Li Bin of Weilai, who has insisted on greeting everyone in the red envelopes of major car owners in the past many years. But a few days ago, I personally announced: "With the increasing number of users, it is no longer the most suitable way to only send red envelopes in fixed groups." "It is very euphemistic to end the tradition of giving out red envelopes, in fact, some of the benefits have long disappeared, such as the stop of APP sign-in and the giving of points, which can feel the secret throttling of this new force's car-making.
Before the Lunar New Year, I was already frightened by the grim situation in 2024. But not everyone is on a tight page.
As soon as BYD announced the performance forecast, it knew that no matter how difficult the question was, the top students were still the top students.
In 2023, as sales exceed the 3 million mark, BYD will undoubtedly make history. The company expects to achieve a net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies of 29 billion yuan to 31 billion yuan, an increase of 74 over the same period last year46%—86.49%, with a profit of 166 in the same period in 20222.2 billion yuan, which can be described as a lot of money.
According to this calculation, BYD's average daily net profit in 2023 will be 7945210,000 yuan—8493150,000 yuan. Who said that new energy is difficult to sell, and who said that 2023 is a cruel year?
To describe a car company, there is not only a positive description of sales, but also a side description, such as BYD's recent Yangwang U8 has become a hard currency in the wedding market, and the rent for a single day is approaching 10,000 yuan. There are even wedding companies that use their in-situ U-turn function to launch the "One Step Nine Turns" kneeling to worship parents service.
Soon, a ** broke out on the Internet again, looking up to U8 became the dowry of a newcomer, next to it was a property worth 2.6 million yuan, and 1 million yuan in cash. Netizens sighed: "This has really become a hard currency comparable to **." "Now on the luxury car road, BYD is also familiar with the road.
BYD, which came out of the low-end civilian route, showed a different road from low to high cars, and obviously some people are eager to try.
Xiaomi, which has always taken the people-friendly route, has been making cars since it started to build cars, and everyone is hoping that Xiaomi will not forget its original intention and continue to knock down the car. But Lei Jun's sentence will not be too cheap, shattering the dreams of many Xiaomi fans.
Recently, due to the underwriting of insurance companies, it is rumored that the upper limit of the high-end version of Xiaomi Su7 is 36140,000 yuan. According to the available information, the final price of the Xiaomi SU7, which is not inferior in product performance, may converge. After all, compared with the previously listed new cars such as ZEEKR 007 and Galaxy E8, the brand premium of Xiaomi SU7 still cannot support the excessively high positioning.
In fact, stick to your own path, as long as you do it well enough, the muddy road can also become a broad road. The experience of predecessors is that we should listen to it, but if we don't make new attempts, we will always be future generations, and if we succeed in our attempts, we will become an example.
This is the last car talk before the New Year, and in the blink of an eye, 2024 is coming, and many people are seriously predicting that 2024 will be a very difficult year, and everyone must be tense and go through hard times. But in fact, most of the tense contemporary people have been living a hard life, and moderate forenotice reminders are sufficient, and excessive spreading anxiety will only make everyone go straight to the plate.
I hope that the new year will not start with anxiety and worry, and face the new year with a villain mentality of "things are getting more and more interesting".
There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain", I wish everyone a happy new year in advance.
