　　In the two or three years around the turn of the millennium, a number of Internet companies that play a significant role in our lives were born, including Tencent, including Alibaba, and of course, our protagonist Autonavi. In the past five years, Autonavi has been one of the more successful ones in changing from traditional surveying and mapping and electronic map navigation providers to networking. Standing at the current time point and facing the next five years, what new "ideas" Autonavi has that are valuable to consumers can be seen together at the Autonavi 2018 customer conference.

　　● Would you buy such a "mushroom head"?

　　In the field of smart cars, Autonavi this time brings A + Box, a product that we consumers can buy in the future, and we use the most space to talk about it. The name of A + Box is not very down-to-earth. You can simply understand it as an Autonavi version of CarPlay. Of course, it is a combination of software and hardware products, and many places are too different.

　　At present, the models equipped with MirrorLink mapping function in China are mainly some models of Volkswagen, Toyota and other brands. A + Link is even rarer. CarPlay and CarLife have invested a lot of time and money in their development for many years to reach their current size. After A + Box used MirrorLink too much in the early stage, I am afraid that Autonavi and Ali will also embark on such a "horse race" road for A + link.

　　At the meeting, Autonavi and Audi also announced a cooperation based on the A + Box. From the beginning of next year, the production version of the "square box" will be carried on Audi’s models one after another.

　　This makes the process of entering the A + BOX system from the original system less "theatrical", which can reduce the discomfort caused by the "system set system" to users.

　　Geely, SAIC passenger cars, and some Android-based rear-loading vehicles and streaming mirrors all use the Autonavi map car version. Based on past experience, the experience is still guaranteed.

　　The core of this technology was still the algorithm. With the algorithm, it would not be a big problem to put it on a full LCD dashboard or a streaming rearview mirror. It was a pity that there was no chance to actually try the effect of the actual road.

　　The more exciting thing on the display car is the voice control system, which is currently using the IDST solution of Ali Damo Academy, which supports natural semantics better. Of course, overseas brands have always been "inferior horses" in voice control, and Autonavi’s opponents should not be them.

　　The voice supports the OneShot function, which means you can say "Hello, Xiaode" and the command you want to give, instead of having to say the wake word and wait for the voice to wake up before proceeding to the next step.

　　At the same time, the "wake-up word" function is supported under the navigation and music interface. You can directly say zoom in/out of the map, face up, do not take the high speed, exit the navigation under the navigation interface, and say the previous/next song, pause, single loop, etc. under the music interface, eliminating the wake-up step.

　　In fact, voice is a product piled up with a large number of cases. It does not rely on too much creativity. It is a thorough "experience discipline". Everyone knows how to go down this road, and as long as you are willing to go down, you can make a good product, but you also need to know that the implementation of every entry and every detail function requires a lot of time and money. Therefore, similar to our life, there is a path destined to "success", but only a few people can follow it.

　　Of course, there are also problems. The connection agreement limits the sales of this product in the future, and how to prevent it from becoming a "geek-only" niche product. This is the problem that Autonavi faces. In addition, whether it is a "mushroom head" or a "square box", we will definitely have to pay for it. Admittedly, it is much better than CarPlay and CarLife, but whether this gap is enough to make you pay for the device is a question that we consumers need to think about.

　　High-definition maps and autonomous driving

　　If A + Box represents the ideal of Autonavi maps in smart cars and is for humans, then high-definition maps are for autonomous driving and for machines to see.

　　Nowadays, more and more V2X road test sites are landing in Wuxi, Hangzhou, Chongqing and other places. V2X has almost become a hot word in the industry. Many people do not know what it is. V2X is vehicle-to-road coordination, that is, cars and cars, cars and pedestrians, cars and traffic lights exchange data to achieve the purpose of "unlimited line of sight".

　　In order to achieve the high-level stage of autonomous driving, it is necessary to rely on V2X and ADAS systems based on vehicle sensors to cooperate with each other. Low-latency communication technology, networked traffic signal facilities, cloud computing brains, and of course high-precision maps are all important aspects of realizing V2X. However, at present, both V2X and high-precision maps are still in their infancy, and it will take time to truly implement the product.

　　Full text summary

　　Whenever things change, people always feel sad, and there are always friends who say: What’s the use of fooling around with these chores, I love driving! In fact, it is not necessarily love driving, what we repel in our hearts is just to hand over the steering wheel. The approaching of autonomous driving makes the "driving" attribute of the car weaker and weaker, and the "riding" attribute is stronger and stronger. In-vehicle interaction and entertainment are also more and more important. Everyone has their own opinions on change, but we must also admit that for the vast majority of us who are "good at" compromise, the cars we drive are not "driving fun" at all.

　　No matter how far the technology develops, Fox RS can still be a manual transmission, but for ordinary people, for sanitation workers and logistics practitioners, let Autonavi and other ideal companies help people achieve an easy journey. (Author: Zheng Xu)

　　　　　　 In the 2019 Sina Entertainment year-end blockbuster project "The Most Beautiful Performance", director Diao Yinan and Hu Ge "South Station Reunion" collaborated to shoot a one-shot short film, with Hu Ge acting as a triangle to recreate the fugitive Zhou Zenong in the film.

　　Jackson Yee, who rose to prominence in the film industry with the role of "Little North" in "Young You", also came to a "north-south integration" with the "The Wild Goose Lake" crew. Diao Yinan tailor-made a story for him. Qianxi plays a rebellious and lonely teenager who is inextricably linked to Zhou Zenong. Shu Qi also joined this short film as a special surprise.

　　Both short films are additions to The Wild Goose Lake, written and directed by Diao Yinan.

　　How are the two stories created? What are some interesting stories on the set? As a Golden Bear Award-winning director, what is Diao Yinan’s understanding of acting?

　　Late at night, after the remake of Jackson Yee’s short film, we had a serious chat with Diao Yinan.

　　Creating a script for Jackson Yee

　　"He is very good at being alone, such a child is rare now"

　　Sina Entertainment: The director wrote two short films this time. Let’s talk about Qianxi first. How was this story created?

　　Diao Yinan: This story is based on Qianxi’s age and his current appearance to make a creative foundation. He is a 19-year-old boy, his heart is full of rebellion, and he is more introverted, not very flamboyant, very lonely, very quiet, and he has these temperaments in him.

　　Therefore, his state may be particularly suitable for what I present to him in this story. His heart is very tolerant and slender, but he is not good at expressing himself. His expression comes from some struggles within.

　　In this video, you may see that his inner voice is expressed through an expressive dance, or an expressive body.

　　Later, Shu Qi was introduced, and the script was also changed once in the middle. The relationship between the two of them in the play is very delicate. Both of them are very good actors and complement each other, so the length of the film also exceeded the original expectations.

　　Sina Entertainment: Although Qianxi’s short film is only a few minutes long, it was actually filmed for a day and a half. What is the reason?

　　Diao Yinan: Although the film is very short, the most beautiful performance for the actor is to show his different performance states and performance methods in such a short time, including the psychological activities of his lines, body language, body posture, and the scheduling of his inner emotions.

　　So each of our shots is also to help the actors to better complete the performance. The performance is not just the actor’s own business, the performance is the picture, the lighting, the sound and the opponents. All of these create an atmosphere that will help the performance. So these elements of the film in other departments are also very carefully done.

　　Sina Entertainment: Regarding this short film, what communication did you have with Qianxi in the early stage?

　　Diao Yinan: Mainly music, choose music, how to deal with this music, what functions did you undertake in the movie, and did some explanations and communication.

　　Sina Entertainment: Is it the music during the dance?

　　Diao Yinan: Strictly speaking, it is not dancing, but rather an externalization of psychological activities.

　　Sina Entertainment: So is it Qianxi’s suggestion or your choice to use the song "fall"?

　　Diao Yinan: I chose it.

　　Sina Entertainment: Have you seen some of Qianxi’s works before? What kind of actor do you think he is?

　　Diao Yinan: I have seen "Young You". Not bad, very promising, and young people have a promising future.

　　Sina Entertainment: I worked with him once this time. How did he perform on the set?

　　Diao Yinan: It is also very quiet on the set, without fighting or making trouble, and without too much contact with others. It is very good to be alone. Such a child is quite rare now. It was only a short two days, so that’s what I observed.

　　Sina Entertainment: Does he have some improvisation of his own when he performs?

　　Diao Yinan: Yes, for example, during the dance process, he will add some. I said you try to hit and kick, and he will add it according to this thing and play it by himself.

　　Sina Entertainment: Did he have any performance that impressed you throughout the cooperation process?

　　Diao Yinan: Execution, for example, what I ask him to do, he can execute it, no matter what method he uses, he can give it to me, which is very important for actors.

　　Sina Entertainment: Some actors may rely on scripts to act, others on instinct, and some on sincerity. What do you think they mainly rely on?

　　Diao Yinan: Maybe it’s based on instinct. Maybe at this stage, he’s a freshman at the Central Academy of Drama. From the perspective of learning acting, he doesn’t necessarily have a lot of skills or experience, so I think he relies more on instinct or talent.

　　Sina Entertainment: This time Shu Qi also starred in this short film. How does it feel to work with her?

　　Diao Yinan: Of course, she is very understanding, very good at performing, and very experienced. Many times she is able to control herself and the rhythm of the performance with ease on the scene, and I feel very cooperative.

　　The South Station party again Hu Ge didn’t have a good time!

　　"I hope to see a very kaleidoscopic Hu Ge"

　　Sina Entertainment: In the story of Hu Ge, you asked him to play the triangle alone. What was the creative inspiration at that time?

　　Diao Yinan: At that time, it was their publicity side. I don’t know who mentioned it. Then I thought it would be very good to use a long shot. The content of the script was written by me. After writing, the shooting process was actually very fast, but it took nearly 8 hours to prepare, which was very interesting.

　　I hope to see a very diverse Hu Ge, who has gone through a huge performance span in just over three minutes. From a sissy span to a fugitive, and then to a particularly vulnerable and rich traveler, it is he who presents them all very well in these few minutes. This is very difficult. I think Hu Ge has really made great progress now.

　　Sina Entertainment: I read that the script actually only briefly wrote the identity of a conductor, so is this sissy feeling the creativity of Hu Ge?

　　Diao Yinan: It’s his idea. Maybe he did some homework in his heart. He also communicated with me in advance, and I said yes, no problem. This kind of performance has a lot of span and tension. In a short period of time, it is like a show, which will let the audience know the ability of an actor to switch between different performance states in an instant.

　　Sina Entertainment: Which of these three identities do you think he played the best?

　　Diao Yinan: They are all pretty good, and he is very malleable.

　　Sina Entertainment: The identity of the fugitive is equivalent to playing Zhou Zenong again. Is Zhou Zenong in the short film in the same vein as in "The Wild Goose Lake", or is there innovation and change?

　　Diao Yinan: In the same vein, maybe he can’t get out of "South Station", maybe his mastery of fugitives is what I ask of him in the movie, and the other two are his free play.

　　Sina Entertainment: 8 hours of preparation in the early stage, is it mainly to prepare for the dispatch of one mirror to the end? I would like to ask you to introduce the specific difficulty.

　　Diao Yinan: All the shots can’t be worse, because there are substitutes to come and go to change positions, and some close-ups can’t be worse, and if there is a slight difference, you will wear a gang. The delicate things of the big full-scale scheduling and close-up are all in this shot, and there are extras in positions, not just Hu Ge, so all departments are required to cooperate, including the people who change clothes should be very fast, and they will wear the gang later.

　　This series tests the abilities of all departments, including the transformation of lights, the passing of train lights, and this shot is particularly able to demonstrate that film is a collective art genre.

　　So our work site was very quiet that day, and we found out later that because each department was very nervous, we paid attention to our key nodes. Sometimes our filming site was also very busy, but it still didn’t seem so quiet, which meant that some departments might be able to take a break, but everyone was very nervous that day.

　　Sina Entertainment: What kind of state is Hu Ge in when everyone is holding their breath?

　　Diao Yinan: He was very relaxed, he was very cooperative, and there was no tension, so he took a total of four shots.

　　Sina Entertainment: It means that a total of four shots were successful?

　　Diao Yinan: I took six or seven shots, and I succeeded in four, and then he played one better than the other. I was also worried that in this situation, the second and third items in the middle might be easy to mobilize emotions, and the fourth item might be tiring, but he also played the fourth item very well.

　　Sina Entertainment: I heard from Hu Ge that you and he communicated this script in the background of Double 11.

　　Diao Yinan: I asked him to watch some movies before performing, such as "Outlaw". At that time, he seemed to be abroad, and then he said he would watch it. Then as soon as we met on Double 11, we talked about this, and he immediately told me that the first character should handle it like this.

　　I thought it was great, he was creating this character, not necessarily according to the script, his own imagination I thought it was okay. Then he also said, it’s really difficult, and he has to test me again. I said that this test is actually fun, so we do it as a fun thing.

　　Sina Entertainment: Didn’t he use the word torture? Because the last time I interviewed Hu Ge, he said he was going to be tortured again.

　　Diao Yinan: Not yet this time. When we finally finished, he seemed to say, is this the end? It seems that he still wants to continue filming.

　　Sina Entertainment: So when you were filming "The Wild Goose Lake", how did you torture him?

　　Diao Yinan: The water is dire and the pain of all kinds of flesh and blood. Because many of them are in the wind and rain, in the open air, and in countless sleepless nights, they have a great test on the body and mind.

　　The most beautiful performance is to use different methods to meet the requirements of different directors

　　"Acting requires the writers, the whole film and all departments to help"

　　Sina Entertainment: What do you think is the most beautiful performance?

　　Diao Yinan: I think the most beautiful performance is that this actor is a professional actor, and he can cooperate with each director in different ways to fit the performance style required by the director. It is not necessarily that this actor will only follow one acting method to fight all over the world, which is also impossible, because every director has a different film style, and may have different requirements for film performance.

　　Then the most beautiful performance is the performance that best fits the style and characters of the movie. As long as you are accurate, he is the most beautiful performance.

　　Even if he is quiet and taciturn, at this moment, he is very powerful in the movie, he is the most beautiful. He doesn’t have to use very complicated techniques, he has to read the script, to understand what he is like at the moment when there is a chemical reaction between his performance and the plot.

　　Sometimes he can step out of himself and watch from the sidelines; sometimes he has to completely immerse his body and mind in the character and live completely in the character; sometimes he is even required to split a bit to integrate reason and emotion well.

　　Sina Entertainment: In the film and television works you have seen, what is the most memorable moment of the most beautiful performance?

　　Diao Yinan: There are too many. I like Ma Long Brando’s performances very much. For example, he played "The Wharf", directed by Ilya Kazan. He created a methodological performance in it, including some characters such as the godfather he created later. I am very impressed. There is also an Italian actor named Marcelo Maschoanni. There are many, but I will not give examples one by one.

　　But Ma Long – Brando, I think as an actor, he has completed countless works in his life, and the output of his works is very high. There are also bad and poor films here, so his performance will also decline; there are also many films that have entered the history of film, and his image is particularly brilliant.

　　So sometimes an actor’s reading of the movie, the choice of the script, and the control of the subject matter will also bear the height of his performance. I don’t mean that an actor only accepts such a very good movie, I mean that sometimes acting requires the help of the screenwriter, the whole film and the whole department.

　　Sina Entertainment: When it comes to the development of Hu Ge, he first became very popular as a costume idol drama, and at the age of 35, he encountered a script and film team like "The Wild Goose Lake" when he needed to transition. Why did you think of letting him play Zhou Zenong?

　　Diao Yinan: He has a face that particularly moved me, or a certain moment of his appearance that moved me. Then this face can only be given to me by him. Others, no matter how good your acting skills are, but your appearance and your face are useless. So sometimes I look for actors, and I first decide whether he fits the role based on his temperament and his face. Hu Ge broke into the role, so to speak, so the role fits with him.

　　Sina Entertainment: Do you think Hu Ge’s current transformation has been successful?

　　Diao Yinan: I think of course it was a success. He gave a completely different performance from his previous performance, which is beyond doubt. Then he gained a different experience from previous performances.

　　Sina Entertainment: In your opinion, is it necessary for male actors to transition between the ages of 30 and 35? Many people may not receive good projects, and they themselves are very worried.

　　Diao Yinan: I believe that many actors want to create characters that can be remembered for a lifetime, but if they can receive such films every day, I don’t think it is possible. For the current film market, for the requirements of movies and the tastes of audiences, they also need to allocate their performance energy and wait for some opportunities.

　　Sina Entertainment: Some time ago, Hu Ge’s fans helped him raise funds to support the box office of "The Wild Goose Lake", but he himself has said that he hopes fans will not do such a thing. As a director, what do you think of the phenomenon that many fans are now raising funds to support idols?

　　Diao Yinan: Fans are purely a kind of passion, but Hu Ge may be a person with self-esteem, and he is not willing to take advantage of fans in this regard, even if it is a small amount of money, he is not willing. He has to rely on his own strength to speak, and he is very confident in his heart. He also welcomes all kinds of comments about him, and he is ready to welcome all kinds of comments. I think he has done it right.

　　Sina Entertainment: In the short film of our most beautiful performance, we collaborated with Hu Ge again. Do you think he has changed since he first made "The Wild Goose Lake"?

　　Diao Yinan: Yes, I think he is different from the day we just arrived in Wuhan and just entered the crew for fitting. On the day of fitting, he was still a little scared and a little dazed, but now I think he is very comfortable, and I think only he knows how to get this freedom. Of course, it is not necessarily given by "Southern Station", or "Southern Station" is just the beginning. He has embarked on a path to make himself comfortable, and he has found a way.

"The last breath of the fuel car is broken", "The swan song of the fuel age", "The fuel car is about to end"…

In today’s public opinion environment, fuel vehicles seem to have been sentenced to "capital punishment", and the undermining of fuel vehicles has long been a mainstream trend in the automotive public opinion field.

For new energy vehicles, the trend of branding, changes in sales, the mutual confrontation between business executives, and the operation of car owners and users’ rice circles are all the focus of public opinion.

According to the Baidu index keyword search trend comparison data, the online traffic popularity of new energy vehicles and trams far exceeds that of fuel vehicles and fuel vehicles. Of course, these all reflect the "silence" of fuel vehicles.

"A joint venture is not a representative of backwardness, it has maturity and stability, and it also has the tenacity to start later." Wen Dali, executive deputy general manager of GAC Toyota, made a public shout at the Guangzhou Auto Show, which is quite worth pondering.

The joint venture "big brothers" who have promoted the development of the automobile industry in the past few decades have also had to use this peculiar way to "confess" to consumers, which can be regarded as a special footnote for the various challenges faced by fuel vehicles.

Is it true that no one supports fuel vehicles anymore? In fact, for a long time to come, the development of the global automobile market will definitely be a parallel between gasoline and electricity, and fuel vehicles are far from being sentenced to death.

The same is true from the data point of view. According to the data released by the 2023 Guangzhou Auto Show, nearly 60% of the cars on display at this auto show are fuel vehicles, which is still the absolute main body. In October this year, among the 308,000 cars sold by Volkswagen in China, new energy accounted for only 8%, and fuel vehicles accounted for 92%.

In fact, users who insist on fuel vehicles may not be active in major online forums, do not operate in circles, and rarely participate in public opinion wars and war of words. They do not seem to have such a strong "sense of existence", but they still use real money to buy cars to "vote" for fuel vehicles and brands, expressing a "silent" support.

During the multi-day visit to the Guangzhou Auto Show, Zhixing Driving Road also found some voices behind the "silent majority", whose stories and choices reflect the development of enterprises and industries.

1. New energy owners returning to fuel vehicles

If young people are more likely to be attracted by new energy vehicles, then Brother Yu, who is in his 40s, is a special case.

Many years ago, when new energy vehicles were still widely questioned and challenged, Brother Yu became one of the early owners. There were two main reasons. He liked to try new technologies and thought that charging was more cost-effective than refueling. However, after a few years, Brother Yu found that he still paid by mistake.

"Now I’m angry when I mention trams." At the Guangzhou Auto Show, when Big Brother Yu and Zhixing Driving Road talked about the topic of new energy vehicles, he seemed quite excited. After a deeper understanding, Zhixing Driving Road also found that his experience has a certain group image representation, which can also bring some inspiration to consumers who are torn between oil cars and trams.

Brother Yu said helplessly, a few days ago on a business trip, came back to find the car can not start, also can not charge, many times with the brand after-sales staff communication, the final conclusion is always not in line with the quality assurance rights and interests, change the battery at your own expense, the price to tens of thousands, and ultimately can only find a third-party auto repair company to try their luck, to see if there can be a low-cost solution.

After experiencing this bad thing, Brother Yu even more believes that many early tram owners were taken advantage of and bought at a high price. The performance and functions of the car are far inferior to the current ones, and many shortcomings are also more obvious. For example, the battery life is more serious. Charging in the city often requires queuing up for empty charging piles, and the cost of charging is not cheap. The overall cost of using a car is not necessarily much cheaper than that of an oil car. More importantly, it is tiring.

In fact, like Brother Yu, car owners who are willing to buy cars for real money in the early stage of the development of new energy vehicles should be well maintained by car companies. But it backfired. After the vehicle battery failed, the brand tried its best to distance itself from the relationship and refused quality assurance. Eventually, the new energy owners like Brother Yu were pushed back into the arms of fuel vehicles.

At the auto show, Brother Yu actually went to the new energy vehicle booth for a stroll. He confessed to Zhixing Driving Road that many sales pitches are still similar today, and car purchase rights look very good.

All kinds of lifelong free, lifelong quality assurance and so on, behind a lot of details and rules are not explained in detail, after a few years really need quality assurance, it is estimated that another way of saying, just like their current tram manufacturers use some reasons to reject quality assurance.

Zhixing Driving Road also found by visiting the new energy vehicle booth that the sales staff often simply inform Sandian of the lifetime quality assurance, but did not mention the specific rules and conditions. We also found through inquiry that there are various rules behind the so-called lifetime quality assurance. If the owner is not careful, he will violate the rules, or lose the rights and interests of lifetime quality assurance because of some easily negligent reasons.

On the other hand, in the eyes of Big Brother, the current fuel vehicles have made great progress in terms of fuel consumption, making up for a competitive shortcoming. After understanding several different brand booths, he found that today’s fuel vehicle brands are developing faster in terms of gasoline-electric hybrid engines. After replacing the hybrid engine with traditional models, the fuel consumption value is directly "cut in half", and the progress is more obvious, which also makes him think that the so-called "electricity saving" advantage of new energy vehicles is not so prominent.

In addition to Big Brother Yu, Zhixing Driving Road interviewed many consumers who still firmly choose fuel vehicles in the fuel vehicle exhibition area. In their opinion, the inconvenience of charging is only secondary, and the risk of car companies going bankrupt and running away is even more important. Behind this are various vehicle function upgrades, after-sales services, maintenance and replacement issues.

Consumers’ concerns in this regard are not biased. Some time ago, the rumors of Weimar’s "bankruptcy" that swiped the screen on the whole network led to a series of chain reactions such as the lack of protection of owners’ rights and interests, the "shutdown" of some car functions, and the collapse of prices in the second-hand market.

The relevant report released by the China Consumers Association in May this year also shows that new energy vehicle companies have closed down and delisted, and it is difficult to continue to provide relevant vehicle maintenance, after-sales maintenance, and original spare parts services. The problem of after-sales insecurity of consumer vehicles is frequent.

Therefore, some consumers have admitted to Zhixing Driving Road that they will still pay more attention to the models and products of mainstream fuel vehicle brands. After all, fuel vehicles have very mature solutions and systems in this regard.

It is understood that when a fuel vehicle company withdraws from the market, the relevant after-sales services will be taken over by other main enterprises of the group or entrusted to qualified third parties. For example, after the withdrawal of GAC Mitsubishi, the relevant services will be handled by GAC Group.

However, there are many original enterprises in the new energy market. Once the enterprise has a problem, it is often a plot of "walking away". The lack of reliable related parties to continue to provide services to car owners is one of the important factors affecting consumer decision-making.

2. Worried about backstabs, etc. Party

Zhixing Driving Road found that all kinds of new energy brands at the Guangzhou Auto Show are showcasing their muscles in new technologies and experiences such as intelligent driving, charging battery life, and intelligent cockpit. There are also many models with a greater sense of technology, product power, and cost performance.

But through interviews with some consumers, we found that some consumers are actually scared away by the rapid replacement of new energy vehicles. Of course, most of them will not battle in the public opinion field, but will silently invest their car purchase budget in fuel vehicle brands.

"New energy vehicles are now being packaged more and more like mobile phones, but buying a car is completely different from buying a mobile phone." At a new energy vehicle booth, Ah Shui, who had just learned about the new model, told Zhixing Driving Road that the new energy vehicles are indeed becoming more and more "cool", but because of this, he does not know when is the right time to start.

In Ah Shui’s opinion, if he decided to buy a new energy vehicle this year, there might be newer, stronger, and more cost-effective models on the market in a few months, and even his own car would launch a facelifted model with additional features and reduced prices. This would not only make it appear that he was backstabbed, but also make the car in the quasi-new car state a little "outdated".

In this regard, Ah Shui also admitted that such problems rarely occur in fuel vehicles, such as Santana, Jetta, Accord, Camry, etc. After years of precipitation, the product power has long been very stable, and the appearance of new and modified models will not affect the experience and mentality of old car owners too much.

He used mobile phone products to make a metaphor, the fuel car is a bit like the iPhone of squeezing toothpaste, the overall difference is not bad, do not have to pursue the latest generation of products. But the new energy vehicle is now a bit like the stage of alternating between functional machines and smart machines, and there may be large product iterations at any time. If you need a car urgently, it is better to be a fuel car first, and it is better to be a new energy vehicle and so on.

In conversations with a number of consumers, Zhixing Driving Road also learned that the maintenance and after-sales system for new energy vehicles needs to be improved, which has also caused many consumers to back down.

For traditional fuel vehicles, daily scratches and collisions can be relatively simple to repair. Whether it is a 4S shop or a third-party auto repair shop, they already have a very mature system, and the price is relatively transparent.

But new energy vehicles are different, involving sensors such as radar, cameras, and chassis battery packs. Even seemingly minor scratches and collisions may damage these expensive components and even lead to changes in battery safety. As mentioned earlier, due to restrictions such as quality assurance agreements, maintenance can only choose official channels, which are not as flexible as fuel vehicles, and will continue to increase the psychological burden of owners.

Zhixing Driving Road found that, in general, the client base that still favors fuel vehicles has a more rational side, and in their opinion, the reliability, practicality, safety and long-tail cost of vehicles are more important.

That is to say, the price war and the so-called "charging is cheaper than refueling" and other selling points cannot convince these consumers to switch to new energy vehicles at present. They are waiting for a more mature opportunity, at least after the replacement no longer has a strong sense of backstabbing, the maintenance and after-sales system is further mature, and the price system of used cars is relatively stable.

3. "Yes, but not many."

When it comes to the topic of fuel vehicles, the brand side, especially the first-line sales who face customers, also has the voice over.

"There is indeed a big impact, and the number of customers I receive is obviously less." Xiao Xin, a salesperson for a Japanese fuel vehicle brand, told Zhixing Driving Road that many of the models displayed by the brand at the Guangzhou Auto Show this year are fuel vehicles, which are indeed not as lively as new energy brands.

Sales staff said that the overall impact is relatively limited, whether it is their own brand or other fuel vehicle brands, have a relatively loyal and large client base.

Although the brand is benchmarking the new energy vehicle market, it has also developed and configured technologies such as L2 smart driving and smart cockpit, but Xiaoxin found that many consumers who come to see the car are not too "cold" about these functions, but still focus on suspension upgrades, chassis design advantages, body robustness, safety, and improved control.

The intelligent driving lane also observed at the relevant fuel vehicle booths that the salesperson was interrupted by the consumer when he took the initiative to show the functional upgrade of the intelligent driving to the consumer, and was instead consulted about the interior space, tire wheelbase, and other information.

Sales staff who have served several new energy and fuel vehicle brands said that in addition to a few new energy vehicle companies that really have full-stack self-research capabilities and are "far ahead", each product has entered a relatively homogeneous stage in terms of function, performance, product power, etc. What is the competition at this time is naturally the hard power of the company itself.

For example, the safety and comfort experience brought by various hardware dimensions of the vehicle; the tonality of the brand, the stability of the pre-sales and after-sales services system, etc., are all areas where fuel vehicle brands have advantages; and the stories of overcharging and high-end intelligent driving told by new energy vehicles are more likely to take a long time to land in the future.

Sales of fuel vehicle brands have generally admitted that some customers have been robbed by new energy vehicle brands, but they still generally have confidence in their own brands and products, and do not express too much concern about future market competition.

This is actually not blind confidence. On the one hand, many new energy brands are still in the loss stage of burning money to develop and improve the system to "sell one at a loss", and there are still great uncertainties in the future. The monthly sales competition seems to be lively, but in fact most of them are far less than the sales data of fuel vehicle brands.

On the other hand, fuel vehicle brands not only have a deep technical heritage and a strong sales network, but also actively seek change and face the competition with new energy vehicle brands.

4. The hard-working elephant turns around

"New energy vehicles are the trend of the future, so the group is also transforming towards electrification, developing technologies, launching new energy sub-brands, and so on." The sales staff of a pure electric sub-brand under a fuel vehicle brand told Zhixing Driving Road that at this year’s Guangzhou Auto Show, the group did not issue the task of releasing new fuel vehicles, but only released a few new energy models. The original fuel models of the subsequent brand will also be gradually transformed into gasoline-electric mixing, plug-in mixing, etc.

The person also said that such as the design of vehicle appearance, interior space, intelligent cockpit, intelligent driving and other functions, these new energy models are equipped with standard elements. In short, "what new energy vehicles should have, we also have it." According to reports, about 40% of the current pure electric vehicle users of the fuel vehicle brand are from the previous conversion of their own fuel vehicle owners.

In the Guangzhou Auto Show, GAC Honda, GAC Toyota, Kia, Jiangqi, Changan Mazda and other mainstream fuel vehicle brands have displayed many new energy-related models such as gasoline-electric hybrid and plug-in hybrid, as well as many electrification The results of transformation, some brands are even reported by the media to cancel the traditional pure fuel version models and fully embrace electrification.

Not only that, but some of the unique selling points of new energy vehicles have also begun to appear in fuel vehicles, such as the new generation of BMW 5 series long wheelbase version exhibited by BMW, which is equipped with a 31-inch rear floating screen, which is nicknamed "big color TV" for rear passengers.

There are also the previously mentioned smart cockpit, L2-assisted driving, embedded door handles, and a more sci-fi and streamlined design language similar to new energy vehicles. It can be observed that many elements of fuel vehicles are aligned with new energy vehicles, or in order to narrow the competitive differences between them.

In this regard, the sales staff of the joint venture fuel vehicle brand said that in response to the user habits and changes in the Chinese market, the brand has indeed been making some corresponding targeted improvements, which are actually rolled up by new energy vehicles. Many configurations and designs that have been recognized by consumers may have some disadvantages in the competition if we do not integrate them in the modification.

So the question is, sales account for the main body and accelerating recovery, the client base coverage is still broad, car companies are also working hard to transform and change, why are fuel vehicles still being sung down and losing the voice of public opinion?

In the exchange with many consumers at the Guangzhou Auto Show, Zhixing Driving Road found one of the most important reasons, that is, the social thinking, user thinking and Internet thinking of new energy brands are far ahead, occupying the network of natives has the voice over.

Some new energy vehicle owners told Zhixing Driving Road that the new energy vehicle brand has done a good job in building an online and offline car owner community, which is an experience that has not been experienced before when driving a fuel vehicle.

The offline activities of new energy vehicles, online community interaction, and social interaction have gradually cultivated the owner’s sense of brand belonging. If there is any problem, they will give feedback through online social interaction, and they will also go to the Internet as tap water to help the brand promote and so on.

Obviously, when a large number of car owners are developed into such online social and interactive habits, the online popularity of new energy brands will naturally increase.

From another perspective, this is precisely what fuel vehicle brands can learn from and make up for. If fuel vehicles can break the "silent" label and gradually become active in various platforms, just like new energy vehicle brands, they can truly return to the center of the stage and return to the "C position" in the market.
