　　Costco, a member-based storage supermarket in the United States, Shanghai Minhang Store once again welcomed the blessing of cheap Maotai.

　　According to the comprehensive reports of China Fund and Maotai Time and Space, from September 11th to September 12th, Guizhou Moutai Sales Company delivered 5 tons of Moutai accurately in two days through Costco Shanghai Store. Local consumers can buy 500ml 53-degree flying Maotai at a price of 1499 yuan/bottle.

　　"This time, we chose Costco for accurate delivery, which is an attempt to reduce the interference of scalpers and let more consumers have reliable and convenient channels to buy Moutai." The relevant person in charge of Guizhou Moutai liquor sales company said.

　　On August 27th, Costco opened its first store in Chinese mainland in Minhang. Due to the large number of consumers who arrived at the store and the large number of people in the store, Costco temporarily announced that it would suspend business in the afternoon. Some on-site security personnel told consumers who failed to enter the market that the passenger flow reached nearly 80,000 that day.

　　Costco’s signature is low gross profit margin. One of the goods snapped up when the first store opened in Shanghai was Moutai, which sold for 1499 yuan. This has also become an example of Costco’s low gross profit margin.

　　However, Costco’s cheap Moutai was quickly snapped up.

　　"Maotai is in Costco supermarket ‘ Fire ’ The news attracted the attention of the group’s top management and immediately arranged for the sales company to pay attention to tracking. The person in charge of Kweichow Moutai Sales Company quickly led a team to negotiate with Costco Supermarket Shanghai Store and put forward the idea of cooperation between Maotai and Costco. " The person in charge of Kweichow Moutai Shanghai told Maotai Time and Space that the decision was made very quickly, and a consensus was quickly reached from the top management of the group to the sales company.

　　According to "Maotai Time and Space", the Moutai sales company entrusted a third party to provide a quantity of 5 tons, about 10,000 bottles of Moutai to Costco Supermarket Shanghai Store. Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, it continued to stabilize the price, so that local consumers in Shanghai could buy Moutai at a price of 1,499 yuan/bottle. According to reports, from the initial contact and brewing to the re-listing of Moutai in Costco, the implementation of this decision took only one week.

　　Behind the 1499 yuan bottle of Moutai, which was snapped up, was the abnormally high price of the terminal.

　　Although the official retail price set by Maotai for 500ml 53-degree flying Maotai is 1499 yuan, due to the tight supply and some merchants hoarding goods, the circulation price of this high-grade maotai-flavor liquor among dealers has already exceeded 2000 yuan, and the retail prices of terminals such as e-commerce and supermarkets are higher.

　　On September 11th, it was rumored on the Internet that the purchase price of Maotai (500ml 53-degree flying Maotai) by Beijing scalpers dropped from 2,650 yuan to 2,100 yuan, causing market panic: Will the price of Maotai peak in the short term? On the same day, the share price of Kweichow Moutai (600519) plummeted by 4.83%, the biggest one-day drop since May 7, and the closing price was 1,069.52 yuan/share, and the market value evaporated by nearly 70 billion yuan.

　　However, a Hangzhou dealer bluntly said that this was false news. The dealer said: "If there is really a Maotai with a price of 2,100 yuan, let him ship me 10,000 tons. Our dealers have a group, which is not the price at all. " According to the dealer, the wholesale price of Feitian Maotai in Hangzhou is stable at more than 2,600 yuan, and the retail price often exceeds 3,000 yuan.

　　According to the statistics from the media "wine makers", the wholesale price of Feitian Maotai in Beijing (the unit price of the whole container) is about 2600 yuan, Shenzhen is about 2400 yuan, Nanchang is about 2500 yuan, Zhengzhou is about 2400 yuan, Chengdu is about 2500 yuan, and Guangzhou is about 2600 yuan.

　　In order to stabilize the price, Maotai has previously stated that it will put 7,400 tons of Moutai into the market on the eve of Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, and try its best to meet the holiday needs of consumers.

　　"The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, and the consumption demand of Maotai is more vigorous. Through the accurate and scientific delivery of key markets, not only will real consumers buy Moutai at a low price, but it will also disrupt the market order by speculating Moutai and selling Moutai in the current market. Powerful counterattack." According to the news of "Maotai Time and Space", the relevant person in the sales department of Maotai revealed the fundamental reason for the cooperation between Maotai and Costco Supermarket.

　　A related person from Maotai Sales Company said, "Because of the short time, the plan needs to be further improved, and cooperation with Costco supermarkets will continue to improve the consumer shopping experience."

　　It is worth mentioning that this time, in cooperation with Costco, Maotai also considered the impact of scalper acquisition.

　　Based on the news of Maotai Time and Space and the official news of China Fund, Costco said that consumers who buy Moutai do not have any "tying" requirements. As long as they are members, they can buy one bottle or just Moutai.

　　The relevant person in charge of the channel department of Moutai sales company rushed to Shanghai to do market research to see the cooperation effect. "On the first day of sales, from 11 noon to 10 pm, about 5,000 people bought Moutai, which was still not publicized. According to the current rhythm, 5 tons of wine can be sold out on the 12 th. "

　　"There are scalpers outside, and about four people are collecting wine. I have been observing statistics in the morning, evening and evening. The scalper probably receives no more than 300 bottles, which is less than 10% of the total. " The relevant person in charge of the channel department of Moutai liquor sales company said that the sales in these two days were orderly and there was no negative situation, indicating that this attempt can really meet the demand of ordinary consumers for wine.

　　According to reports, the heavy volume will end on September 12, and Maotai Liquor Sales Company will summarize and study the cooperation with Costco Supermarket to form a complete set of mode operation.

(CCTV reporter Ren Meimei)

One day last week, when I first arrived at the automobile specialized shop, I saw two masters disassembling the tire of a Buick Angkewei. Before I could speak, the master asked me, do you know how to check the recall information? I replied, I don’t know how to check, after all, my car has not experienced it.

The master told me that this Angkewei was repaired because of the recall. I will teach you how to inquire whether the car needs to be recalled. It is a good thing for you to share this process and provide valuable information to the majority of car owners. Thus, this article was born.

Let’s start with the basic information of this Buick Angkewei, the 2017 two-wheel drive luxury model. The production date is January 2017, which is more than six years ago. At present, there is nothing wrong with the vehicle. In the original words of the owner, this car is a little high in fuel consumption, and everything else is ok.

According to the master, the recalled brake oil pipes are the ones. As shown in the figure below, the production dates of four new brake oil pipes are relatively new.

So, how do we know that our car needs to be recalled? The master said that under normal circumstances, it is not necessary for our car owners to find it themselves. A manufacturer or a staff member of the 4S shop will inform the car owners, introduce the recall information of the vehicle in detail and make an appointment to go to the store for maintenance.

If the number of vehicle recalls is large, the owner will receive the information later. If the owner wants to know whether the car needs to be recalled earlier, there are two convenient ways: First, the owner directly calls the 4S shop, and the 4S shop will help the owner to inquire according to the vehicle VIN code; The other is that the owner of the vehicle searches online by himself, which is also very convenient.

How can the owner inquire about it online? The master said, search the car recall website directly, and the page after login is as shown in the figure below. Enter the 17-digit VIN code of the vehicle at this position.

Take this Buick Angkewei as an example. When I enter the VIN code, the following messages appear. As shown in the red box, the vehicle is being recalled, and there are two recall messages.

It should be noted here that if our vehicle is not recalled, a pop-up prompt will appear and no results will be found.

Let’s continue to look at the query results of this Angkewei. First, click on the recall in 2018, and we can see very specific recall information, such as the specific recalled models and production time.

We continue to look at the recall information in 2018, that is, there is a problem with the bushing of the lower control arm of the vehicle, which is prone to "ankle" of the vehicle due to the bushing falling off, that is, the half axle will be pulled out, and the maintenance measure is to replace it with an integrated bushing structure.

Since the recall in 2018 has been completed, we can only find the photos of the former owner replacing the bushing from the Internet. As shown in the following figure, this cast iron bushing weighs two kilograms.

I saw the installed bushing on this Angkewei, as shown by the arrow in the figure below. The improved lower control arm bushing has been recalled.

The installation of this bushing greatly enhances the risk that the bushing of the lower control arm will fall off. It can be said that since the bushing of the lower control arm was installed, there has basically been no "ankle sprain".

After reading the recall information in 2018, we can click on the recall information this time. We can see that a total of 649,357 vehicles need to be recalled this time, and the recall time is from December 31, 2020 to December 30, 2023.

In other words, it has been more than two years since the release of the recall information and now the owner has entered the store, and it is overdue for more than one month! If the owner contacted the store for replacement as soon as he learned the recall information, he would not have used the car for two years with hidden dangers!

To put it simply, there is a risk of leakage of brake fluid from the brake oil pipe, which may affect the braking performance. The maintenance measures are: replace the improved brake hose free of charge.

However, we can also see that after February 11, 2018, the manufacturer improved the brake tubing of the new vehicle, and it was not until November 27, 2020 that the recall information was announced, which was more than two years.

At the same time, we can see the complaints, including 6 defect reports and complaints, and 179 warranty or claim cases. It may be because of this information that the manufacturer found the problem and started the recall. After all, the brake problem is definitely a big problem and is closely related to driving safety.

Let’s take a look at the defect description and maintenance measures: replace the improved brake hose for free.

Look at this Angkewei under maintenance. Its four brake hoses are not in trouble for the time being, but there are design defects, which has a certain probability. As shown in the picture below, this is the old brake hose removed by the master.

As shown in the figure below, the new and old brake hoses are compared.

As shown in the figure below, this is another brake hose and its installation position.

When the brake hose is replaced, brake oil will definitely flow out, so after replacing four brake hoses, the master adds brake oil to the brake oil pot in the engine compartment.

After that, lift the car, exhaust the air from the four brake cylinders, and finally flush the place where the brake oil flows with water. Because brake oil is very corrosive, but it is easily soluble in water, the best way to clean up the traces of brake oil is to wash it with water.

On the whole, if our car owners want to check whether their cars have been recalled, they should first write down the VIN code of their cars, which is located at the lower part of the main driver’s external windshield or open the co-pilot door to look at the nameplate on the B-pillar, and then check it on the car recall website.

One thing to note is that car owners should never think that their cars can’t be recalled if they haven’t been maintained in a 4S shop for a long time, and they can still have the right to be recalled for maintenance if they don’t.

You know, the recall of a car is caused by the design or material problems of the vehicle itself when it leaves the factory, which belongs to the quality problems of the vehicle itself and has little to do with whether it is maintained in a 4S shop.

    Entrepreneurs usually have no time to study the right and wrong of entrepreneurship itself.More than a month ago, I was invited to give a speech at China Europe International Business School. The topic given by the organizer "China Europe Business Review" was "Observation and Thinking on the Entrepreneurship of the Whole People". At that time, I was still stunned:Is it necessary to reflect on mass entrepreneurship at the beginning?

In preparation for my speech, I began to search for information. To some surprise, I did see many opinions on mass entrepreneurship. For example, "sports innovation", "New Great Leap Forward", "If the government can’t solve the employment problem, let college students start their own businesses", "If taxpayers’ money is used as a venture capital fund, who will be responsible for hitting Shui Piao" and "encouraging impetuousness" are all mentioned, and even some economists are questioning it.

A magazine in the south that is famous for its fresh ideas, the cover report in September is called "What the hell is entrepreneurship?" ",the main idea is that we need a bucket of ice in the enthusiasm and loss of the whole people’s" selling iron in a pot "business. The article wrote:

"Entrepreneurship is becoming a national movement. Everyone will hear the entrepreneurial legend of classmates Li Lei and Han Meimei, colleague Ma’s salary increase, and Pharaoh next door getting rich overnight."

"Everyone wants to be a Chinese partner. If you don’t dress like a technical dog, you don’t have a few business plans in your hand, you don’t sit in a coffee shop with an Apple computer on your back, and you don’t press PPT twice. You are embarrassed to say hello to others."

"Now even going to the toilet is going to be’ internet plus’. Impetuousness, hype, over-packaging, deception and false concepts pervade the entrepreneurial circle. 90% of college students fail to start a business, and many people die on the road to entrepreneurship in less than one year-they are killed by feelings, killed by internal friction in team differences, abused by investors, stupid by one-track thinking, bullied by giants, despised by the market, and killed by investors.

I am also an entrepreneur in the internet plus era. At first, I didn’t think it necessary to respond to these questions.Because the people who accuse the public of starting a business are basically not entrepreneurs themselves, not those who dare to take risks, but more "risk neutral" or "risk averse".However, as an old media person and a new media entrepreneur, I think it is necessary to speak frankly about my views, and also to discuss with the skeptics of mass entrepreneurship.

"Do you know why the Soviet Union can let Gagarin go into the sky, but the people can’t eat delicious bread?"

The first astronaut in the world: yury alekseyevich gagarin.

This is a question asked by the teacher when he took an economics course in Fudan in the 1980s.

The teacher’s answer is: to make Gagarin the first earthman to go into space can be solved by concentrating national resources to do great things, and the Soviet system has the ability to gather outstanding scientists to focus on tackling key problems. The bread problem needs decentralized decision-making, and people in every place have different tastes. The Caucasus, Moscow, Siberia, the elderly, pregnant women and children have different tastes, so they can only learn about it nearby and rely on countless scattered suppliers to meet them one by one. It is impossible for the country to develop a super formula to solve it uniformly.

There are many reasons for the disintegration of the former Soviet Union, but it cannot solve the bread problem, which may be the most fundamental.

If a country wants to develop, it can adopt a centralized planning system in some fields; In the early stage of economic development, we can also encourage "takenism" through the guidance of industrial policies and take the road of reference, imitation and introduction. The centralized decision-making and industrial guidance of the country are reasonable, but history also proves that the government is not smarter than the enterprises in a certain market in the choice of specific industries and projects. No one can know the changes in consumer demand in advance, but can only explore and grasp through the market mechanism in the transaction interaction of thousands of buyers and sellers, which is always changing today and tomorrow.

    经济越往前走，模仿空间越小，越需要自己创新。而创业、创新往往都是在一次次尝试中包括对错误的调整中实现的，有时甚至是误打误撞找到了一条路，这扇门被关掉别的地方又开了一扇窗。因为是分散决策，有输有赢有起有落很正常，每个“经济人”也会及时改变。谁也不会傻到明明碰到南墙，头还硬往上撞。失败和调整不是什么浪费，而是必须支付的创业创新成本。不走市场配置资源的道路，指望政府有个超级大脑洞悉一切，不仅不可能，也是给政府过高期望和过大压力。历史上由于政府的某些不合理产业政策，明知南墙也要撞、撞得头破血流的例子还少吗？政府应有的职能不在这里。

Last year, at the National "Two Sessions", when Li Keqiang participated in the group discussion, he recalled the years of "educated youth" in this way.

"In those days, I jumped the queue in Fengyang, Anhui Province. I was the’ head’ of the production team and the secretary of the brigade branch. At that time, I got up very early and slept very late every day. The production tasks of everyone in the production team, this person transplanting rice and that person carrying the burden, were all arranged. "

"But the villagers still don’t have enough to eat. When the production team is seriously short of food, it even needs to take the official seal of the brigade to prove to the women and children in the village that they have escaped from the spring shortage."

"As a result, the contract system was pushed away, and the production team basically ignored it. Farmers cultivated their own fields and planned what they wanted to plant and what to plant, and the problem of food and clothing was solved within a few years! Reform is indeed the biggest dividend, because it has mobilized the enthusiasm of thousands of people in Qian Qian, stimulated the vitality of the market and released the creativity of society. "

In the winter of 1972, Luwan District, Shanghai Gymnasium, was the scene to send off the educated youth who went to the countryside.

The memory of youth has a profound influence on Li Keqiang. In his article published in Qiushi magazine, he also talked about this story.

I don’t know if the old man in history ten or twenty years later will come to such a judgment when describing China’s economic history from the late 1970s-this is the largest entrepreneurial tide in human history, which occurred in a country with the largest population and lasted for fifty or sixty years.

Some people say that the country can’t solve the employment problem before letting college students start businesses. To solve the "employment difficulty", all parties should work hard, but is it necessary for the state to allocate jobs today? We must know that reform and opening up are forced out: in rural areas, it is "hunger-driven"-if farmers do not have enough to eat, they will have a contract system; In the city, it is "unemployment-driven"-there are so many educated youths returning to the city, and there are no jobs. They can only start from a small business of opening a hotel hair salon, making watches and clothes, and making furniture for maintenance. A history of reform and opening up is also a history of China’s entrepreneurship.

    It is not easy to start a business. If you can be reborn in a luxurious home, all your desires can be satisfied at once. It is estimated that not many people want to start a business. However, the world is mostly civilians, and if ordinary people want to change their fate and make themselves live better, richer and freer, entrepreneurship is undoubtedly the only way.This simple power is so powerful that no matter how hard and tired it is, generations of entrepreneurs still jump in. This jump, China and the love of the market economy began, and never separated.

    Mass entrepreneurship is to give everyone the freedom to choose to change their destiny.It is a new formulation, but it is not a new phenomenon, but an economic theme that runs through the whole past 30 years.

such asAs a result, the reform and opening up began with the liberalization and decentralization of the "double release", so today’s "double innovation" can be said to be the inheritance and re-development of the "double release" from a new historical starting point. China should create new dividends and rely on entrepreneurship; We should go beyond the "imitation trap" and rely on innovation. "Double innovation" is not only the source of economic vitality, but also the way of transformation and upgrading.

three

In the United States of last century, there was a "roaring twenties". People who wake up after World War I believe that modern science can make everything possible, economy and technology have unlimited potential, trains, cars, telephones, radios, new consumer goods, infrastructure expansion, stock investment, population explosion and urbanization, all of which make people firmly believe that a completely different era is coming.

Time and space switch. After 100 years, the tide of "double innovation" in China is like a mighty river, based on the huge market, with the Internet as the starting point, and relying on emerging consumption and new lifestyles. In this process, the government just pushes the hand, not the main body, but every ordinary entrepreneur. In 2014, there were 12.93 million new market players (including private enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households) in China, and this year, there are basically 10,000 new registered enterprises every day. Although the new subjects have to explore, it is impossible to become the leading force of the economy in a short period of time, but in time, they will surely become the new pillars to boost China’s economy.

    The essence of entrepreneurship is to find opportunities that can better meet the needs of consumers and put them into practice.In practice, entrepreneurs will "generate" knowledge that books can’t learn. The more people start businesses, the more new knowledge they generate, and gradually form a chain reaction and network effect. Entrepreneurial opportunities will not be exhausted with the use of entrepreneurs. On the contrary, every opportunity will collide and create another opportunity. From a deeper perspective, the engine of economic growth is not investment and consumption, but the institutional and cultural environment that helps to "capitalize" entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs’ opportunities. It is the spirit of entrepreneurial innovation, not any kind of capital, that can provide the most fundamental driving force for economic growth.

Shuangchuang is also forcing reform. Historically, wherever the property rights system is weak and the rule of law is lacking, entrepreneurs tend to seek rent from regulators, engage in "unproductive activities", or turn to the underground economy, or even castrate themselves, which stifles entrepreneurial spirit. It can be asserted that if China, the biggest entrepreneurial tide in human history, can promote her great rejuvenation, it must be supported by a grand and profound institutional change. Too much management will lead to death, only when it is released can it be invigorated, and only when it is simple and respectful to the people can China write a magnificent and energetic new chapter.

China has suggested that,We must put innovation at the core of the overall national development, optimize the allocation of labor, capital, land, technology, management and other factors, stimulate the vitality of innovation and entrepreneurship, promote mass entrepreneurship and innovation, release new demand, create new supply, and promote the vigorous development of new technologies, new industries and new formats.

From the perspective of economics, China’s thinking today is not to keep expanding its balance sheet, so as to continue to be locked in by the traditional development model; It is to enlarge and strengthen human capital, create fresh and effective new supply, adapt to new demand and lead new demand by giving full play to everyone’s enthusiasm and creativity. In this process, economic resources will be more allocated to emerging forces, to creators and to the future. As long as the allocation of resources is constantly optimized, we will be able to get out of the new time tunnel and usher in a new horizon.

From the economics of innovation, we can also derive sociology of innovation, pedagogy of innovation, and politics of innovation … No matter which direction or field, we need to seek a breakthrough in the spirit of innovation, get rid of the shackles of existing stereotypes and create unprecedented increments. Only in this way can tomorrow be better and we can be better.

    Double creation is the spiritual gene from which each of us can draw strength today.

The current government is facing the downward growth and structural adjustment of China’s economy, the historical burden and the inertia of vested interests. Although it has a lot of courage, it is inevitable that there will be a lot of helplessness on the road to governance in reality. It’s too early to talk about the gains and losses of the government, but I think that just putting forward and vigorously promoting the "double innovation economy" will go down in history and last for a long time.

I am an entrepreneur, and my entrepreneurial experience may be shallow, but I believe that countless entrepreneurs will deeply remember this era of double innovation.China’s economy is not only a big ship economy, but also a Qian Fan economy, not only a big tree economy, but also a wanmu economy. Only when all kinds of frost compete for freedom can an innovative country be built.

There are thousands of ways to start a business and innovate. You can learn first and then create, create while learning, and cooperate with others to create. Everyone has a path to participate, which does not mean that everyone will drop out of school and start a company. However, the spirit of entrepreneurial innovation should be respected by the whole society and promoted in the whole society.

As entrepreneurs, we may fail and be frustrated, but when we encounter the historic opportunity of innovation, we are proud to make such a choice-we would rather fall on the road to the future than be parasitic on the path dependence on the past.

This is a nation with a history of 5,000 years, and our mission today is to create a more beautiful future for China through entrepreneurship and innovation.

[Xiaomi Network Audio: Smart Speaker with Internet Access]

On the afternoon of November 22, 2016, Xiaomi launched a new Xiaomi network audio that was known as "unprofessional". It was developed by the Xiaomi TV host team and was a new category created by Xiaomi TV after the establishment of the box category.

As can be seen from the name, the biggest highlight of Xiaomi Network Audio is its ability to access the internet.

Compared with the traditional Bluetooth connection method, WiFi access to the network not only breaks through the distance limit (Bluetooth connection to the mobile phone is greatly affected by the distance, but Wi-Fi transmission distance and wall-penetrating ability are much higher than Bluetooth transmission), but also allows access to more music resources online, which is the best of both worlds.

It brings together the current 10 major mainstream audio service content, claiming to be able to provide 20 million online music library, 8 million sets of online radio programs, and more than 1,500 radio stations covering 31 provinces/municipalities.

In terms of hardware specifications, Xiaomi Network Audio has inherited Xiaomi’s usual "fever" concept, equipped with Amlogic 8726M3 Cortex-A9 processor, built-in 8GB flash memory, Bluetooth 4.1 and 802.11ac dual-band Wi-Fi, built-in two 2.5-inch subwoofers and two 20-core dome tweeters.

In terms of interface, Xiaomi Network Audio provides a 3.5mm audio input interface, supports USB expansion, and of course, the most important thing is to support Android/iOS mobile phone remote control (with Xiaomi Audio App) function.

Just looking at the above "parameters" can’t explain too much, so how is the actual performance of Xiaomi Network Audio? We got this product a few days ago, and we will share our experience with you.

[Appearance design: cuboid shape, shutter grille lines, simple and elegant]

The outer packaging of Xiaomi Network Audio is a king-sized Xiaomi mobile phone box, which adopts a white minimalist design style and has a product picture on the front.

The connection method of the product is marked on the side of the box. Xiaomi Network Audio supports Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.1, AUX IN, USB 2.0, unlimited projection and remote access, etc.

The Xiaomi network audio is a cuboid shape, the corners are rounded, and the white box is simple and atmospheric. Unlike the mesh or mesh design of traditional speakers, the front and rear sides of the Xiaomi network audio are designed with grilles, like blinds. The "MI" logo is integrated with the fuselage lines, quiet and unobtrusive.

The top of the Xiaomi network stereo is a silver-white metal control panel, and the surface is brushed, which is very textured.

The button layout is very similar to that of the Xiaomi TV host. From top to bottom, there are power indicators, volume +, PLAY key (play/pause), volume -, and CH key (used to switch channels). The left and right buttons are responsible for switching songs (previous/next). Long press the CH key to achieve voice control.

The back of Xiaomi Network Audio is covered by a 3.5mm AUX interface, a USB interface, and a power socket from left to right. It is connected to TVs, computers, and other devices through a 3.5mm audio cable. The USB interface can be connected to an external U disk to achieve local playback.

The bottom of the Xiaomi network sound box is surrounded by 4 rubber anti-skid foot pads, and the middle is the host information and the mobile phone client side to download the QR code.

The nameplate of Xiaomi Network Audio: the model is MDZ-16-DA, and the QR code is the Xiaomi Audio App, which connects Xiaomi Network Audio to achieve various functions.

The power cord of Xiaomi Network Audio is also a pure white design.

[Function experience: not just listening to music, radio and audio novels, but also voice on demand]

The biggest highlight of Xiaomi Network Audio is that the audio itself "can surf the Internet". The following will focus on the use of Xiaomi Network Audio.

– Wi-Fi Connection App

After downloading the Xiaomi Audio App (scan the manual or the QR code at the bottom of Xiaomi Network Audio to download), click "Add Speaker", then long press the PLAY button of Xiaomi Network Audio and click "Next", then configure the speaker with Wi-Fi. After clicking "Next", the speaker can "surf the Internet".

– – Main interface of Xiaomi Audio App

After connecting to Wi-Fi, it will automatically enter the main interface of the Xiaomi Audio app (first on the left). Xiaomi Audio has pre-added several channels (the classics in the picture on the left are also popular, moving 2016, European and American golden songs, etc.). Click on any channel to start enjoying the music journey.

The one on the right is the main interface for music playback. Slide left and right to switch songs. At the bottom is the volume adjustment. You can also choose the playback order, view the playlist, and turn it off regularly, etc.

– search for songs

At present, the Xiaomi Audio App integrates the content of Kuwo Music, Xiami Music and Xiaomi Music three audio service providers, as well as Kuke Music, which focuses on classical music, and Bewa Listen Radio, which is aimed at children.

Click Create Channel to navigate to the search interface (first from the left). The same song will be displayed simultaneously on three platforms: Xiami Music, Xiaomi Music, and Kuwo Music. Click More Search Results to view all the content of this song on this platform (Xiami Music, Kuwo Music, or Xiaomi Music).

– create a channel

The Xiaomi Audio App supports self-built channels. Click "Create Channel" in the upper right corner of the main page to add songs to Xiami, Xiaomi and Kuwo.

Taking Xiaomi Music as an example, the self-built channel can add any song from the three lists of Xiaomi New Song Chart, Hot Song Chart and Popular Chart, but users cannot rename the channel, only add or delete it.

Subscription radio.

In addition to listening to music, you can also subscribe to radio stations on the Xiaomi Audio App. At present, Xiaomi Audio covers the content of Dragonfly Radio, Himalayan Radio, Koala Radio, Phoenix Radio and Litchi Radio.

After entering these platforms, you can see the popular content of most radio stations, and you can also search for your favorite programs. The operation mechanism is exactly the same as the previously mentioned search music process. After subscribing, you can see your subscribed programs on the main interface.

– Bluetooth connection

Although Xiaomi Network Audio is positioned as a smart speaker that "can surf the Internet", it still retains the basic functions of traditional Bluetooth speakers. First confirm that the Bluetooth switch of Xiaomi Network Audio is turned on. After the mobile phone turns on Bluetooth, click Connect with it to turn it into a traditional Bluetooth speaker.

After connecting to Bluetooth, not only can the local content of the mobile phone be played, but the resources in the Xiaomi Audio App can still be accessed, which means that Xiaomi Network Audio can support both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connection methods, but when using a third-party player, it can only be played through Bluetooth, and there will be a certain delay.

USB expansion.

Xiaomi Network Audio supports USB expansion. After inserting the U disk, the Xiaomi Audio App will display the U disk icon on the main interface, and click to play the songs on the U disk.

– remote access

Xiaomi Network Audio supports remote connection of PC or MAC computers. The specific operation method is (take Windows computers as an example), open "My Computer", enter the corresponding address (10.1.1.100), then click the media folder, copy the songs on the computer, and then you can play them on Xiaomi Network Audio.

The song information copied on the computer will appear in the Xiaomi Audio App synchronously, and the specific location is the speaker storage channel.

– other functions

You can view the available storage space of Xiaomi Network Audio in the App. In addition, Xiaomi Network Audio also has an alarm clock reminder function, which supports changing the alarm clock ringtone. The function experience is the same as that of the mobile phone alarm clock.

The Xiaomi Audio App has a built-in upgrade assistant. Through the upgrade assistant, Xiaomi Network Audio can be firmware upgraded. During our experience, we also received a speaker firmware upgrade push.

In addition, Xiaomi Network Audio supports voice-on-demand function. I often encounter such a thing in life. I want to find a song, but I only find it after consulting three or four music apps. Xiaomi Network Audio provides voice-on-demand function. Just long press the CH button and say the song, radio, audio book, etc. you want to listen to, and it will search and find the result and play it by itself.

In the actual experience process, the recognition rate is very high. By directly saying the name of the song or the singer, you can find the corresponding resources, which is simple and fast.

[Audition experience: 4 units of vocalization achieve good sound quality]

Xiaomi Network Audio has built-in 2 2.5-inch subwoofers and 2 20-core dome tweeters with a total of 4 sound units. The subwoofer can effectively reduce the distortion rate, and the dome tweeter has the advantages of wide frequency band, good directivity, good transient characteristics, smooth and natural, etc. The combination of the two complements each other.

In terms of quality, Xiaomi’s network audio has a sampling rate of 60-25kHz that exceeds the human ear discrimination range, supports up to 24Bit/192kHz audio sources, which is higher than the CD standard sound quality. The playback ability of such a high-purity audio source is comparable to the Hi-Res standard pushed by Sony.

With the configuration, how is the specific performance? Next is the audition experience.

Bass.

Bass: Representative tracks are Cai Qin’s "Ferry" and the Eagles’ "California Hotel", played through Xiaomi Network Audio, you can hear a very mellow bass, the female voice effect is clear and mellow, the resolution is high, the voice and background music are clearly layered, and the sense of presence is very strong, especially when it is close to the speaker position, there is a sense of immersion.

– Alto

Alto: The representative tracks are "Undercurrent" and "Legend". Faye Wong’s voice itself is relatively cool. Xiaomi Network Audio deduces the characteristics of Faye Wong as thin as a cicada’s wings, ethereal and stable. Although the telescopic force is not large, the light and dark fluctuations are relatively stable and full of tension.

– treble

Treble: The representative tracks are "Deficit" and "Heaven". The treble part of Xiaomi Network Audio is high and loud, vigorous and powerful, with transparent sound and distinct layers. The sound field is open and delicate, and the details are in place. There is no distortion when the volume is turned up.

It’s classical.

Classical music is the choice of "Bell" and "Chopin Etudes", the piano treble area crisp and melodious, loud and powerful, different intensity levels of sound can be clearly felt.

It’s called heavy metal.

The tracks used in heavy metal music are "She is My Sin" and "Stay". Heavy metal music generally has a roar, roar, or high-pitched and passionate voice. Xiaomi Network Audio plays such music with high explosive power, fast speed, and a sense of weight and destruction. It is very powerful.

Rock music.

The songs chosen for rock and roll are Cui Jian’s "Flower House Girl" and "Rock and Roll on the New Long March Road". Xiaomi Network Audio vividly interprets Cui Jian’s hoarse but loud voice full of wild beauty.

[Summary: 399 yuan, the strongest speaker at the same price]

Xiaomi Network Audio is a brand-new audio equipment product under Xiaomi. Although it is not Xiaomi’s first foray into the audio field, this product is very different from the previously released Xiaomi Bluetooth speaker in terms of appearance design and functional experience.

In terms of appearance design, Xiaomi Network Audio’s blinded grille lines are simple and elegant, in sharp contrast to the mesh or mesh design of traditional Bluetooth speakers. The rounded corners and white cuboid shape will not violate any place.

For speakers, which serve the sense of hearing, functional experience should be a priority for manufacturers. In this regard, with the help of the Xiaomi Audio App, Xiaomi Network Audio can realize many functions such as Wi-Fi listening, remote access, Bluetooth, alarm clock, etc., greatly improving playability.

In terms of resources, 20 million online music library, more than 8 million Internet radio programs and 1,500 radio stations can meet most of the needs of users, which are not available in traditional Bluetooth speakers.

In terms of sound quality, the 4-unit sound effectively reduces the distortion rate, the treble is smooth and natural, and the inverted air duct technology improves the bass performance, enabling Xiaomi Network Audio to maintain a very good sound quality level at this price range.

The appearance is simple and atmospheric, the operation is simple and convenient, the function is rich and powerful, the music content is rich, etc. These are the advantages of Xiaomi network audio. This time, Xiaomi has focused all its attention on the music experience, making the product itself more playable and providing users with a different product experience from traditional Bluetooth speakers.

Although the slogan "Xiaomi is targeting the market of 3,999 yuan at the price of 399 yuan" is a bit exaggerated, and although Xiaomi Network Audio cannot be compared with 3,999 yuan audio, it is undeniable that from this product, we see Xiaomi Network Audio’s determination to develop in a diversified direction, not just on the surface of pure listening to music.

By the end of 2022, NIO had a total of 26,763 employees. On November 3, NIO Chairperson and CEO Li Bin said in a letter to all NIO employees that about 10% of positions would be reduced, meaning that about 2,700 people would be laid off.

On August 29, 2023, NIO announced the second quarter financial report. The financial report shows that the revenue decreased by 14.8% year-on-year to 8.7717 billion yuan, the gross profit decreased by 93.5% year-on-year to 87 million yuan, the net loss 6.0558 billion yuan increased by 119.6% year-on-year, and the adjusted net loss was 5.4457 billion yuan, an increase of 140.2% year-on-year. (Normally, NIO will release the third quarter financial report of 2023 around November 9, but as of the date of publication, it has not been seen for a long time, and the estimated data is not optimistic.)

As of October this year, NIO’s total sales were 126,067 vehicles, ahead of XPeng Motors’ 101,445 vehicles, but far below Li Auto’s 284,647 vehicles.

The level of sales is the bedrock of a car company’s economy, and a series of data suggest that NIO’s life in 2023 will indeed be difficult.

Although NIO’s sales and profits are average, it is also quietly doing big things.

As of November 1, NIO has built 2,079 power stations and 19,579 charging piles around the world, including more than 2,000 power stations in China and more than 600 high-speed stations. At the same time, NIO’s overseas and domestic stores are also increasing, with 25 new stores added in October.

The layout of NIO’s charging and swapping network and stores has undoubtedly improved the car experience of NIO owners and expanded the influence of NIO, but many people believe that the construction and operation costs of NIO swapping stations are too high, and the global rollout takes up a lot of money.

If the cost of a power station 3 million (including land, personnel, battery loss, etc.), the NIO 2000 power stations need at least 6 billion to support. More importantly, NIO power stations only serve NIO owners, and NIO promises to owners that there will be free power changes every year, so the profitability of NIO power stations is about equal to none compared with 6 billion.

In addition, with the rapid development of overcharging technology and battery technology, the charging time has been greatly shortened, the battery life of pure electric vehicles has also been greatly improved, and the advantage of fast power station replacement has been gradually weakened.

Writing here, the author wants to apologize for the NIO power station replacement.

The author has personally experienced the second and third generation of NIO power station, and the average power change time is only 3-5 minutes. No matter how fast the overcharge speed is, it is impossible for them to fully charge a 75KW/h and 100KW/h battery within 3 minutes at this stage, and the charging time will even be extended due to the instability of the charging pile voltage. If there is no revolutionary breakthrough in power battery technology, the charging speed of the power station cannot be shaken.

The power station takes up most of NIO’s resources, but it also brings a lot of convenience to users, and at this stage, the power station and the overcharge complement each other, and it is far from the day when the winner will be decided.

NIO’s predicament today is mainly caused by high prices and low sales.

At present, NIO’s product system has covered many aspects such as cars, SUVs, coupe SUVs, station wagons, etc. It is the car company with the most models and the widest layout among the three car companies of "Wei Xiaoli". Friends who are familiar with NIO know that the price of its models is generally high. If it were not for the price reduction of NIO ES6 and NIO ET5 and ET5T, NIO’s cars would not be lower than 300,000 at all, especially NIO ES8 high-end models. Correction is approaching 600,000.

The advantage of many models and high prices is that it has cut into a more subdivided market, stabilized NIO’s high-end brand perception, but also entered the sphere of influence of traditional luxury brands and emerging brands such as Tesla.

NIO ET5 and ET5T priced at 29.8-356,000 yuan have no advantage over Tesla Model 3 and BMW 3 Series in price, and belong to the level of half a catty to eight taels in control and comfort. The biggest advantage is that ET5T has design advantages in order to stabilize the monthly average of 5000 vehicles (ET5 and ET5T), which can be compared with BMW 3 Series and Tesla Model 3 with an average of 1-20,000 units.

In fact, NIO has tasted the sweetness brought by the price reduction, in June NIO all models down 30,000 yuan, although the cancellation of free power exchange and other parts of the rights and interests, but NIO new ES6, ET5T, ET5, ES8 and other models sales or a significant increase, its July sales is the first time in the year to break through the 20,000, especially the new ES6 of 11118 vehicles, become the absolute main force of NIO.

At this stage, many car companies are deliberately setting the price of new cars for sales, such as Zhiji LS6, Xiaopeng G6, Xiaopeng G9, etc., and the effect is quite positive. Xiaopeng G6’s October sales are 8,741 units, Xiaopeng G9 is listed for 15 days, and Zhiji LS6 is 28,000 units.

Now NIO really don’t have to hold it for high-end brand perception. It is the most practical to cancel part of the rights and interests to give consumers real money discounts in order to sell sales. What about the future of NIO? Layoffs and losses are just a small episode in its growth process. Even if Li Jiebin picks it up, with the scale of NIO charging stations and stores, as well as the annual sales of 150,000 vehicles, capital and major car companies will not give up easily.
