  Recently, Liu Wen’s exposure of her own studio photos in the "wallpaper File" triggered a heated discussion, not only because of everyone’s curiosity, but also because the office of the first cousin is so beautiful! There are even many netizens who want to change jobs very much after reading it!

  Her studio is located in Liangzhu Cultural Town, Ningbo. It is said that Liu Wen had taken great pains to choose the location of the studio earlier, until she saw it in Ningbo Studio. Because there is a river in front of this place and a river behind it, you can see mountains in the distance, and you can see the sky when you look up, which is very attractive to her.

  This studio is called "Six-One", and Liu Wen regards it as a "growth box". The overall layout is simple, quiet and warm, with excellent lighting. It looks like Liu Wen, and it is full of the vitality of simple sunshine under the glamorous appearance.

  See here a little real envy? Not only Liu Wen’s studio, but also star artists really have some ideas about home. Let’s share the exposed star home with you today ~

    Jing Bo Ran’s home:

  "Warm Man" also loves minimalist style.

  As early as the year before last, Jing Bao shared his apartment in a magazine. It is said that he spent 30 million yuan at that time, which seems to be a high-quality industrial style.

  Some netizens think that the design is a little too cold to feel at home, but this is a matter of personal preference and cannot be used to judge whether it is good or not. As a host, Jing Bo Ran is partial to black, white and gray, and also likes the unspeakable mystery in this rich level.

  Jing Bao said that he was actually very interested in home design and enjoyed the process. He often paid attention to some information about interior design, shared it with his own designers when he was suitable, and bought his favorite home items when he traveled overseas.

  For example, the geometric vase on the table is the work of Jonathan Adler, a famous American soft clothing designer, which has a feeling of combining retro and avant-garde.

  Jing Bao also bluntly said that he is a cup control. There are all kinds of cups at home, large and small, and each cup has its own place at home. Every time he goes abroad on a business trip, he will bring a cup back.

  The study on the second floor also continues the overall style of the house, with a little rational coolness in literature and art.

  The part of the bedroom will be a little warmer. Warm brown wallpaper and warm blue bedding make the bedroom space not too cold, and it is not out of touch with the overall indoor style.

  There is also a very black technology cloakroom, in which all cupboard doors can be switched by induction. Is it the ultimate dream of girls?

  Kardashian’s home:

  Spend 400 million to turn a luxury house into a "rough house"?

  After talking about domestic star homes, in fact, more stars in sparsely populated foreign countries have shared their homes. After all, the place is big enough! For example, Kardashian, the topic queen, has a lot of discussions about her home. Who asked her to spend 400 million yuan to build her home into a "rough house" …

  Although it looks like a blank at first glance, it is actually as wide as a palace, with minimalism as the main theme of decoration, which is very detailed.

  For example, the "flat" sink that has been discussed before actually has a subtle curvature to maintain the amount of water storage and launching.

  Although the space is empty, there are actually many mysteries. For example, the 130-inch giant screen TV is hidden inside and rises directly from the ground. What’s more black, with the rise of the TV, the curtains will be drawn, making the indoor light more suitable for watching TV.

  It is said that there are two kitchens, one for display and the other for cooking. Is it through this "rough house" with four walls, that you slowly smell the taste of money?

  Kylie Jenner :

  The strongest girl who attracts gold! Sitting in a $30 million mansion

1522381548.6944

  In the Kardashian family, there is not only Kardashian’s super moat, but also a girl with super gold absorption ability, that is, Kylie Jenner, a little sister born in 1997, who is only 22 years old now, but has bought many luxury houses by her own ability.

  Recently, this $36 million luxury house has also been exposed. It is fully equipped, including tennis courts, swimming pools, etc., which is the configuration of a luxury house in the traditional sense. The decoration is also quite modern, and it looks like a resort hotel. It is very suitable for relaxing and working harder after reading it!

  Sharapova’s home

  The warm home of the tennis goddess

  Shawa, a 32-year-old tennis myth, not only maintains the standard on the court, but also has high requirements for the home environment. Recently, she exposed her mansion in California in foreign media, and it is said that she participated in it to a large extent. It looks stylish enough, and there is no lack of life.

  It is said that it took her nearly three years to design and build this three-storey building.

  There is also a casual bowling alley in the basement.

  The balcony on the second floor can also enjoy the panoramic view of Los Angeles, which is very suitable for leisure and relieves the pressure after the game. It looks like a very comfortable home!

   Taylor Swift’s Home:

  20 million new york mansions are super warm. 

  As a world-class Diva, Mumei has her own luxury houses in many places, each with its own characteristics, and also has property in new york. In 2014, she spent nearly $20 million to buy a penthouse in new york, where land is scarce.

  This big apartment has a total of seven bedrooms, including audio-visual room, gym and other luxury houses. However, because it was bought from others, the interior decoration is not suitable for young people. After buying it, it was renovated.

  After the renovation, it is really beautiful and fashionable, and the sunshine is enough, which looks very warm and young.

  During the renovation, Mumei rented a Tribeca apartment in Manhattan, which looks very attractive. The most important thing is that it has an excellent location, and now it can enjoy the scenery of downtown new york.

  After reading so much, are some of them shocked? Maybe we can’t do this, but some design ideas can still be learned, and maybe we can learn from them when decorating our new home one day ~

It’s about to start! The United States announced a full-scale resumption of sanctions against Iran, and its response to Iran was calm.

       CCTV News:On November 2nd, local time, US Secretary of State Pompeo and Finance Minister Mnuchin jointly issued a statement announcing that sanctions on Iranian energy and banking will be restarted on the 5th of this month. This is the second batch of sanctions against Iraq restarted after the United States announced its withdrawal from the comprehensive agreement on the Iranian nuclear issue in May this year. At that time, the United States will fully resume the sanctions against Iraq lifted by the Iranian nuclear deal.

       US Secretary of State Pompeo said that the latest targets of sanctions will include Iran’s energy, shipbuilding, transportation and financial industries, and the US will impose sanctions on countries and enterprises that continue to buy Iranian oil and do business with blacklisted Iranian companies from November 5.

one

       Pompeo said that eight countries or regions will be granted temporary exemptions and can continue to purchase Iranian petroleum products, because they have greatly reduced Iranian crude oil imports, and the United States will give them more time to achieve "zero imports". The United States will ensure that this part of the Iranian government’s income from petroleum products can only be used for humanitarian procurement and non-sanction trade. According to foreign media reports, the eight exempted countries and regions may include Japan, South Korea, India and Turkey, and the US will announce the full list on November 5th.

one

       In addition, Pompeo also listed 12 requirements that need to be met in order to lift the sanctions against Iran, including "stopping the financing of terrorism, stopping military operations in Syria, and stopping the research and development of ballistic missiles" and so on.

       After announcing its withdrawal from the Iranian nuclear comprehensive agreement in May this year, the White House announced on August 6 that it would restart a series of sanctions on Iran’s finance, metals, minerals, automobiles and other non-energy fields from August 7. Sanctions will involve the Iranian government’s purchase of precious metals such as dollars and gold, industrial graphite, steel, aluminum, coal and software, transactions related to Iranian currency, activities related to the issuance of sovereign debt by the Iranian government, and the Iranian automobile industry.

       Up to now, the U.S. government has imposed 19 rounds of sanctions on Iran in 168 fields. On November 5th, the U.S. Treasury Department will publish a list of more than 700 individual units that have been sanctioned, including more than 300 new targets in addition to those that have been lifted by the the Iranian nuclear deal.

       According to Reuters, Turkey and Iraq have received confirmation that they can be exempted from the US sanctions against Iran.

       Turkish Energy Minister Donmez No.2 said that Turkey has received the exemption confirmation from the United States and can continue to import oil from Iran for the time being. An Iraqi official also said on the same day that he had received permission from the United States to continue to import key energy and food materials from Iran as long as he did not pay dollars to Iran. In addition, according to a source, India and South Korea are also on the exemption list of the United States.

       [Response] Iran called the new round of sanctions "not worth mentioning"

       After the United States announced that it would fully resume sanctions against Iran, US President Trump said that sanctions against Iran are beginning and Iran will be hit hard. In this regard, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman No.2 said that Iran is not worried about the new sanctions against the United States because the United States will not be able to implement sanctions against Iran. The spokesman also said that under the sanctions of the United States, Iran also has the ability to manage economic affairs well.

       Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Ghasemi told national television on the same day that "the United States will not be able to take any effective measures against Iran, and Iran has the knowledge and ability to manage national economic affairs." He also said that "through these sanctions, the United States can achieve its economic goals. The possibility is very small, and it is impossible to achieve its political goals through such sanctions."

       In response to the announcement by the United States that it will exempt eight countries and regions that import oil from Iran, Cadol, deputy minister of Iranian Oil Ministry, said that the exemption shows that "the oil market needs Iran, and Iran cannot completely withdraw".

       In May this year, the United States announced its withdrawal from the Iranian nuclear deal, and since then, it has repeatedly imposed sanctions on Iran. The State Council announced in June that it would ask countries to stop importing Iranian oil in November, otherwise relevant countries and enterprises would face economic sanctions.

       [Impact] Rising prices have affected people’s lives

       Since the US sanctions started in August this year, the Iranian currency, the Iranian rial, has depreciated sharply, which has greatly affected people’s lives. After the US sanctions were launched, the Iranian rial fell to an all-time low against the US dollar. In the local unofficial market, the currency depreciation once exceeded three times. As a result, residents’ savings have shrunk and prices have risen rapidly. When the reporter interviewed in Tehran, the capital of Iran, many people said that the cost of living has increased and life is getting worse.

one

       The Iranian people say that they simply don’t believe the US government’s statement that "the purpose of sanctions is only to put pressure on the Iranian government", because it is the people who suffer. The local people told reporters that although the Iranian country and people are suffering, they are not afraid and will not bow to hegemony. On the contrary, the United States is losing its international credibility in this sanctions.

       [Statement] European countries deeply regret the US decision.

       In response to the United States’ announcement of a comprehensive resumption of sanctions against Iran, the EU, France, Germany and Britain said in a joint statement that they deeply regret the decision of the United States.

       Mogherini, the European Union’s High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, and the finance ministers of France, Germany and Britain said that they would protect European economic entities that have legitimate business dealings with Iran under the European legal framework and UN Security Council Resolution 2231.

Haier: quality leads to create a world-class enterprise.

Quality standards should be defined by users.

Haier: quality leads to create a world-class enterprise.

□ Our reporter Zhu Wenda

As a representative of the real economy, Haier has entered more than 200 countries and regions around the world, and has been ranked among the top 10 "Top 50 Global Brands in China" by Google & Kaidu for seven consecutive years. If China enterprises are facing the world to create a shining business card of China quality, then Haier is one of the best practitioners and leaders.

Haier pioneered a quality management system with the best user experience as the core. Haier believes that quality standards should be defined by users, inspection is not the standard, and customer satisfaction is the standard. Therefore, quality should pay attention not only to performance standards, but also to user experience. Haier’s quality management system has triggered a learning trend of cross-industry, cross-field and cross-cultural enterprises, which has made the world see the innovative development of quality management in China and provided the world with a "China plan" for quality management.

Initiate-

China’s quality management model leads the Internet of Things era.

In the development of human society, every innovation in the field of quality has promoted the progress of production technology and the improvement of residents’ quality of life. Looking back at the history of global quality management, we have to mention some famous quality management methods, such as Total Quality Management and Six Sigma: the popularization and application of Total Quality Management has made Japanese products synonymous with high quality in the world; After the success of General Electric, Six Sigma went to the world.


Haier team took part in the presentation of the basic quality innovation project of China Electronic Quality Association and China Light Industry Federation.

Since the reform and opening up, China has actively studied advanced quality management theories and methods from Japan, the United States, Europe and other countries, and applied them to enterprise practice, which has promoted the improvement of product quality in China. Entering the Internet of Things era, the business environment is constantly changing, and the rapid economic development in China provides the soil for the birth of quality management mode in China.

Haier pioneered a quality management system with the best user experience as the core.

First, how should quality be defined? Haier believes that quality standards should be defined by users, inspection is not the standard, and customer satisfaction is the standard. Therefore, quality should pay attention not only to performance standards, but also to user experience.

The traditional quality system includes the whole process of R&D, manufacturing, production and service, which is linear. But Haier’s quality system is different. Haier takes users as the center, makes users become producers and consumers, participates in R&D, design and manufacturing in the whole process, and builds a continuously evolving experience cloud platform to provide users with new experiences of diversified scenes, personalized customization and lifelong iteration.

For example, before 2016, there will be at least 10 cm gap between refrigerators and cabinets in users’ homes around the world. In 2016, casarte, a high-end brand of Haier Group, reduced the distance from 10 cm to 2 cm. However, Chinese consumers are still not satisfied, because the refrigerator and home are still not perfectly integrated, and it is easy to accumulate dust in the gap and inconvenient to take care of. This is also a problem that the industry has been unable to solve for many years, because the door of the ordinary refrigerator can not be opened after being embedded at zero distance, and the two sides can not effectively dissipate heat, which will bring great security risks. Focusing on users’ needs, casarte R&D personnel eliminated the last 2 cm in five years. On the one hand, they sorted out 4 major technical topics and 45 sub-topics, and set up a technical team of nearly 100 people in 7 major professional directions, which lasted more than 20,000 hours to create an original scientific and technological refrigeration system; On the other hand, after dozens of iterations, they innovatively introduced the design scheme of the second rotating shaft, and finally designed and developed the original technology of double-axis track-changing hinge, which realized that the refrigerator can be flush with the cabinet and connected with the lines.

Secondly, Haier endowed the quality system with higher standards and connotations, namely "high-quality products, high-quality systems and high-quality people".

High-quality products should have two characteristics: first, high reliability, which is the basis of quality; The second is high brand loyalty.

The high-quality system not only opens up the whole process from R&D and design, module procurement to intelligent manufacturing, intelligent service and quality guarantee period within the enterprise, but also covers the ecological stakeholders of all nodes such as suppliers, distributors and service providers, and realizes the high quality of the whole process, all nodes and all cycles.

High-quality talents are not only the foundation of the quality system, but also the continuation and guarantee of the system. In Haier, it is necessary to establish a high-quality workforce and a corporate culture that respects users. It is necessary to instill the corporate culture in the hearts of every employee, so that the craftsman spirit can be turned into corporate genes and integrated into the DNA of the enterprise.

Relying on the leading quality management concept and practice, Haier won the first China Quality Award in 2013. In addition, Haier has won many domestic and international awards, including the national quality benchmark, the quality technology award, and the "Olympic" (ICQCC project) gold award in the quality industry, and has become one of the enterprises with the largest number of such awards in the industry.

Subversion-

Digital intelligence drives life cycle quality guidance.

Economic development and technological innovation promote the continuous innovation of quality management system and methods. In order to keep pace with the times, enterprises must focus on improving the quality management level, especially to conform to the new round of scientific and technological revolution and the general trend of industrial transformation, accelerate the construction of digital and intelligent quality control mode, and realize the digital upgrade of quality management.

Haier exerts its strength from the practice of innovative quality management, and drives the innovation of quality management with digitalization and intelligence. First of all, in terms of equipment as the production base, Haier built an intelligent equipment self-optimization system based on digital twin technology, and built an IOT platform for equipment. Through the collection of key parameters and real-time interconnection of parameters, it can monitor equipment, process and production operation parameters at any time, diagnose and deal with abnormal data found in time, and turn the original fault maintenance into predictive maintenance beforehand. Secondly, in terms of technology, Haier has built a process design platform integrating R&D and manufacturing, providing a digital, traceable, reusable data base for lean manufacturing and intelligent operation.

Technological innovation is an important part of digital and intelligent innovation quality management. Haier carries out innovation around three key points: first, automation technology innovation, extensive application of intelligent cooperative robots and logistics automation technology, and creation of intelligent man-machine cooperation working environment; Secondly, detection technology innovation, Haier has carried out all-factor and process verification experiments in the application of visual detection technology and performance intelligent detection station of sound quality intelligent detection system; Third, the new ICT technology innovation, the whole industry has opened up hundreds of application scenarios of the integration of information technology and manufacturing technology, such as 5G+ machine vision, 5G+AR, 5G+AI+MEC, and formed standardized and modular products that can be quickly copied. At present, it has successfully empowered 20 world-leading interconnected factories, helped 4 factories pass the level 4 certification of intelligent manufacturing maturity, 2 factories were awarded the intelligent manufacturing benchmark, and 6 factories were awarded the "lighthouse factory" in the world.


Intelligent+5G Interconnected Factory Based on Haier COSMOPlat Mass Customization Mode

In terms of test and inspection equipment support, Haier has the first-class testing capability in the home appliance industry and the international leading 700+ professional laboratory, covering 50,000+testing projects in the field of whole machine and module testing, and has been recognized by many international authoritative testing institutions such as CNAS, VDE, JET, UL and TüV, and obtained mutual recognition of data. At the same time, Haier has the first "Industrial Product Quality Control and Technical Evaluation Laboratory" awarded by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology in China.

Haier did not stop at the digital technological innovation of quality management, but also exported the "Haier Scheme" for the high-quality experience of users and the high-quality development of the industry by transforming the achievements of quality technological innovation into patents. For example, in the process of breaking through the needs of users, Haier has applied for 17 patents, including 6 invention patents, such as intelligent detection and isolation technology of communication faults in control panels, which has solved the quality management problems that have plagued the industry for many years.

Pilotage-

Help the high-quality development of China’s real economy

The fourth industrial revolution is subverting almost all industries. At present, a new generation of information technologies, such as Internet of Things, cloud computing, artificial intelligence and big data, are deeply integrated, breaking the boundaries between the digital world and the physical world. At the moment when Chinese-style modernization is fully promoted, promoting the high-quality development of the real economy with digitalization has become a "required question" for enterprises.

Based on nearly 40 years’ manufacturing experience, Haier initiated the COSMOPlat industrial Internet platform in kaos in 2017, which takes mass customization as the core and introduces users’ full-process participation experience. While empowering Haier to transform itself from a "digital enterprise" to a "digital enterprise", it also empowers more enterprises and industries to achieve high-quality development.

On the enterprise side, Compass is an RV manufacturer in Rongcheng, Shandong Province, and was selected as the second batch of state-level specialized and innovative "Little Giant" enterprises. Aiming at the pain points of the original products, such as homogenization, high cost, long cycle and weak R&D ability, kaos COSMOPlat has provided transformation consulting, lean transformation and mass customization mode transformation schemes to help it link ecological resources and change its business model, which has reduced its procurement cost by 7.3%, shortened its delivery cycle by 43%, increased its revenue by nearly five times and achieved rapid growth in profits. Empowered by COSMOPlat of kaos, Compass has changed from a small and medium-sized enterprise that originally worked as an OEM for Australian RV dealers to an eco-operator of RV travel.


Kaos Industrial Internet

On the industry side, kaos COSMOPlat promotes the digital transformation of the whole industrial chain, realizing the transformation from a "walled garden" to an endless "tropical rainforest", and promoting the deep integration, quality improvement and efficiency improvement of the whole industry. Taking the ceramic industry as an example, COSMOPlat of kaos cooperated with Jingdezhen of Jiangxi to build a digital platform for ceramic industry to serve the development of the industry and enterprise transformation. At present, the platform has been put into operation, attracting tens of thousands of industrial service providers, more than 300 ceramic masters and more than 3,000 upstream and downstream enterprises in the national ceramic industry chain.


Electromagnetic compatibility detection of household appliances

On the urban side, COSMOPlat of kaos initiated the "1+N+X" model of industrial internet empowering urban digital economy, that is, to build a comprehensive service platform for city-level industrial internet enterprises, N industrial internet platforms in specific industries and fields and X industrial internet demonstration parks. Taking Qingdao as an example, by the end of 2022, the platform had empowered 4,500 enterprises and added an output value of 30 billion yuan.

As the first batch of enterprises in China to explore intelligent manufacturing, Haier has always taken the initiative to explore and innovate, driven the digital transformation and upgrading of enterprises with platform empowerment, released innovative kinetic energy for the industry with scientific and technological innovation, created a win-win situation with all ecological parties, and helped the high-quality development of the national digital economy. In 2022, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology announced the first batch of national-level "digital navigation" demonstration lists, and Haier ranked first among 30 enterprises and became the benchmark of digital navigation.

Universality—

Quality management in China has changed from "bringing in" to "going out"

In the late 1970s, total quality management was introduced into China and gradually took root. In the early 1990s, China introduced the ISO9000 quality management series standard certification mechanism, which promoted the systematization and standardization of enterprise quality management and brought it into line with international standards.

Total quality management emphasizes that quality is produced rather than tested, and the final quality is guaranteed by quality management in production. Six Sigma is a management tool based on data to analyze the improvement of on-site ability, which can be interpreted as 3~4 mistakes in every one million opportunities. What they have in common is that they are based on the internal production process of the enterprise.

China is not only a big manufacturing country, but also a big consumption country. With the continuous growth of consumer demand, the integration of production and consumption has become a major feature of China manufacturing. On the basis of the introduction and implementation of total quality management and Six Sigma management, Haier explores a high-quality management system with the integration of production and consumption and "quality for all", and forms a quality management model with China characteristics. China’s quality management has also experienced the process from "bringing in" to "going out".

Haier’s quality management model has aroused the learning and reference of cross-industry, cross-field and cross-cultural enterprises, not only domestic leading automobile enterprises and dairy enterprises, but also representatives from countries along the Belt and Road such as Spain, Serbia and Israel. Quality Progress, an international authoritative journal, published "Consolidating Intelligent Interconnected Quality System and Improving User’s Product Experience" to deeply understand Haier’s quality strength and let the world see the new development of quality management in China.

Quality development is the way of rejuvenating the country and the strategy of strengthening the country. Through continuous innovation and practice, enterprises in China, represented by Haier, are pushing to make attaching importance to quality and creating quality a social trend, making the pursuit of Excellence and advocating first-class a value orientation, and finally realizing the transformation from China manufacturing to China creation, from China speed to China quality, and from China products to China brand, thus contributing to the world the excellent quality management mode from China.

From Dilemma to Revival, SAIC-GM’s Self-confident Rise and Future Layout

SAIC-GM has been very busy in recent months.

Within half a year, SAIC-GM launched a number of new cars, and the effect of the "one-price" policy was even more immediate, which seemed to instantly activate the vitality of this old joint venture car company. "In the last two or three months, we have done a lot of actions and met with you frequently." On the eve of the Guangzhou Auto Show in 2024, Haitao Xue, the deputy general manager of SAIC-GM, said this in a relaxed tone. Although this remark is somewhat joking, it is a true portrayal of a series of intensive new product launches and marketing offensives of SAIC-GM in recent months.

In November, in the face of increasingly fierce competition in the market environment, SAIC-GM achieved another great success. Data show that in November, SAIC-GM’s terminal sales volume was 66,797 vehicles (including exports), up 14.7% from the previous month, setting a new high in the year and maintaining growth for five consecutive months. At the same time, the performance of new energy vehicles was particularly bright. In November, the terminal sales reached 10,010 vehicles, up 5.9% from the previous month. From January to November, the cumulative terminal sales of SAIC-GM exceeded 600,000 vehicles, and the cumulative sales of new energy vehicles reached 97,056 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 77.4%.

This series of data not only reflects the signs of SAIC-GM’s gradual recovery in the predicament, but also marks its staged success in the rapid layout in the fields of new energy, intelligence and high-end. As one of the mainstream joint venture car companies in China, SAIC-GM has been accelerating its transformation in recent years, making full efforts in products, technology, marketing, services and other fields, showing strong market resilience.

New energy strategy: the key layout from oil-electric dual track to electrification transformation

The wave of new energy is irreversible, and the transformation process of SAIC-GM, especially in the field of new energy, is particularly critical.

As one of the strongest R&D centers in China, Pan Asia Technology Center is regarded as the "trump card" of SAIC-GM. From chassis adjustment to body design, Pan Asia always adheres to the highest standards in the world. In the field of new energy, Pan Asia also holds enough trump cards … From the development of Ultium platform to the promotion of intelligent solutions for new energy vehicles, this R&D center has gradually brought SAIC-GM into the electrified track.

In order to cope with the drastic changes in China’s automobile market, SAIC-GM set its sights on the development of "oil-electric dual track" from the very beginning. In November, Buick MPV SkyTeam performed well, with monthly sales reaching 10,211 vehicles, up 16% from the previous month. Among them, the GL8 family is still the main force in the market, and the new energy model GL8 PHEV is a leader. As a luxury gold standard hybrid MPV, GL8 PHEV’s sales volume and orders have maintained a double-digit growth. At present, the number of orders of GL8 PHEV is still increasing, and the market share of hybrid MPVs above 350,000 yuan exceeds 30%, and the market share of MPVs above 380,000 yuan is close to 70%.

At the same time, as a pure electric vehicle, its sales in November also reached 3,039 vehicles, up 55.7% year-on-year. With its spacious interior space, solid battery life and excellent safety, Buick E5 attracts a large number of consumers. Since its launch in September, E5 has been selling more than 3,000 vehicles a month for three consecutive months, making it another brilliant work of SAIC-GM in the field of new energy.

In the field of new energy, SAIC-GM continued to promote the expansion and optimization of product matrix. From January to November, the sales volume of new energy vehicles was close to 100,000, making it one of the fastest brands in the joint venture vehicle enterprises. Buick and Cadillac’s "electrification+intelligence" double upgrades have made SAIC-GM not only occupy a place in the fuel automobile market, but also gradually occupy a leading position in the field of new energy vehicles.

In the next two years, SAIC-GM plans to launch 12 new energy vehicles, covering a complete product matrix from compact cars to large SUVs. This not only shows the technical background, but also reserves enough "ammunition" for the competition in the new energy era, which has injected a strong impetus into brand reshaping.

Price offensive: innovation "limited price" won!

It is natural for Buick to continue to improve by accelerating the renewal of new models, distinctive product strength, and superimposing the "stable and ruthless" marketing strategy and escalating value system.

In the second half of 2024, the Buick brand’s "limited time and one price" strategy became an important driver of SAIC-GM’s successful recovery. What is a "bite price"? In short, the price of car models is unified throughout the country, regardless of regions and dealers, and consumers do not need to bargain with sales staff in the process of buying cars. This policy not only saves consumers time and energy, but also avoids the psychological gap after buying a car. At the same time, there is no need for price competition among dealers, but more energy is devoted to improving service quality.

This strategy directly promoted the growth of sales. Through this innovative strategy, SAIC-GM quickly attracted a large number of consumers’ attention and activated market demand. After the release of the limited-time "one-price", orders quickly exceeded 5,000 units during the National Day. In addition, the continued sales of Plus can not be separated from the promotion of one-price strategy. With this strategy, Buick Angkewei Plus has gained a firm foothold in the SUV market and become an important force that cannot be ignored in the current fuel auto market. According to the latest data, the sales volume of Angkewei family reached 18,300, of which the sales volume of Angkewei Plus reached 12,807, setting a new record for the monthly sales volume of 2.0T displacement vehicles.

In the field of cars, since the launch of Buick 2025 Platinum, the sales volume has continued to rise, with 4,603 vehicles sold in November, up 50.5% year-on-year. The performance of this series of products has laid a good foundation for SAIC-GM’s market recovery.

In addition, GL8 "Tiantuan" also performed well. The luxury gold standard MPV—— listed at the end of October-the new GL8 Luzun terminal is hot, with orders increasing by 108% month-on-month; For the first time, the GL8 land business class entered the price range of less than 200,000 yuan, further lowering the purchase threshold for MPV users. In addition, the 2025 CENTURY was launched less than a month ago, with sales volume increasing by 84.4% month-on-month, and orders rising by more than 240% month-on-month, continuing to write the "century" legend of the top luxury MPV market.

Under the strategic deployment of SAIC-GM, Cadillac brand will not be outdone. This year, Cadillac launched XT6, a luxury six-seat SUV with all road conditions. With the market pricing advantage and replacement subsidy policy, it quickly broke the barriers for consumers to buy luxury SUVs. In November, Cadillac’s brand-new XT5 also sold well, with 6,127 new orders. Since its listing, it has ordered more than 6,000 units and delivered 3,933 units for three consecutive months, and the market share of key cities has risen to the top three. Star rear-drive car CT5 sold 5,306 cars in November, up 9% from the previous month. Undoubtedly, both Buick and Cadillac have demonstrated the firm steps of SAIC-GM in the direction of high-end and electrification.

From channel to organization, the gold content of SAIC-GM system strength is still improving.

At present, the sales volume of SAIC-GM terminals has stabilized at more than 50,000 vehicles per month, and it has continued to grow for five months, obviously stabilizing and warming up.

In fact, the success of SAIC-GM is not only reflected in the breakthrough of products and sales, but also in the deep localization strategy and organizational optimization behind it. This year, SAIC-GM successfully "destocked" more than 150,000 vehicles, significantly improving the health of the channel. Combined with the new marketing strategy and management optimization, the company’s market performance gradually picked up. In particular, the comprehensive optimization and integration of production efficiency, organizational structure, core team and operating costs have laid a solid foundation for the company’s future sustainable development.

In terms of channels, SAIC-GM has strengthened its support for dealer networks through digital means. It not only provides a more transparent data sharing platform, but also helps dealers reduce operating costs through the optimization of financial policies. This "empowerment management" model has won more support for the brand in the market competition.

More importantly, thanks to the full support of the parent companies SAIC and GM, SAIC-GM has formulated a series of long-term development plans for the future, including product planning for the next decade. With the continuous introduction of more new technologies and new models, SAIC-GM is accumulating strength for further breakthroughs in the coming year.

In the face of the deep transformation of the market, SAIC-GM has demonstrated strong coping ability and market acumen. Whether it is continuous innovation in new energy and intelligence, or multi-dimensional adjustment in products, technology and marketing, it shows that it is fully prepared for healthy and sustainable development in the future. With the gradual recovery of sales in 2024, SAIC-GM is expected to continue to be at the forefront in the field of new energy and intelligence in 2025. The strong rebound in monthly sales once again verified its strong competitiveness against the trend in the predicament.

For SAIC-GM, the recovery of sales volume is not only a staged victory, but also a starting point for redefining brand value and winning back consumer trust. Under the circumstance of accelerating the reshuffle of China automobile market, SAIC-GM is moving towards the peak again at a steady pace.

At present, China auto market is undergoing a deep transformation, and opportunities and challenges coexist. As the leader of joint venture car companies in the era of smart electricity, SAIC-GM has continuously adjusted its strategy and demonstrated its strong resistance to pressure with innovative breakthroughs. A series of reform measures have demonstrated the confidence and determination of SAIC-GM, as if to declare to the market that the past trough is only temporary. In the future, it will continue to meet the challenges with an open attitude, and with its strong brand influence, technical strength and market insight, it will set off new waves in China and even the global automobile market.

We are confident that we can see the day when SAIC-GM "the king returns".

  "The greatest achievement of the United front work in the new era is to form an important thought on doing a good job in the United front work of the party in the new era in practice, and put forward a series of new ideas, new ideas and new strategies on strengthening and improving the United front work."

  The United front is an important part of the party’s general line and policy, which has played an important role in different historical periods of China’s revolution, construction and reform. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the people of the Communist Party of China (CPC), represented by the Supreme Leader, have put forward a series of new ideas, new ideas and new strategies on strengthening and improving the United front work, profoundly answered major questions such as why the United front is needed in the new era, what kind of United front is needed, how to consolidate and develop the United front, and formed the important thought of General Secretary Supreme Leader on doing a good job in the United front work of the Party in the new era, and opened up a new realm of the modernization of Marxist United front theory in China.

  From July 29th to 30th, 2022, the Central United Front Work Conference was held in Beijing. This is an important meeting with milestone significance on the eve of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the centenary of the United Front Policy put forward by our Party. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader attended the meeting and delivered an important speech, which pointed out the direction for the development of the United front cause in the new era and provided fundamental follow-up. The article "Complete, accurate and comprehensive implementation of the important thinking on doing a good job in the party’s United front work in the new era" is part of the important speech of the General Secretary. In this important article, the general secretary fully affirmed the historic contribution of our party’s United front work in the past century and the historic achievements made in the new era, and systematically explained the new ideas, new ideas and new strategies formed in the United front work since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China from twelve aspects, which is highly political, ideological, theoretical and instructive. General Secretary Supreme Leader’s important thought on doing a good job in the Party’s United front work in the new era is a profound summary and wisdom crystallization of the development of the Party’s United front work in the past century, especially the practice of the United front work in the new era. It is an important part of Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era and the fundamental guideline of the United front work in the new era. The whole Party must implement it completely, accurately and comprehensively, and promote the United front work in the new era to create a new situation continuously.

  "We must give full play to the important magic weapon role of the United front"

  "We must consolidate and develop the broadest patriotic United front, draw the greatest unity of building a strong country and national rejuvenation, unite and unite our strength, forge great achievements through struggle, and jointly write the magnificent chapter of Chinese modernization!"

  On the morning of December 29th, 2023, in Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference Auditorium, Party and state leaders, such as the Supreme Leader General Secretary, got together with leaders of democratic parties, the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, representatives of personages without party affiliation, heads of relevant departments of the central and state organs, and representatives of people from all walks of life in the capital to talk about friendship, discuss the country and welcome the new year together.

  Establishing the broadest United front is an important magic weapon for the party to defeat the enemy and to govern and rejuvenate the country. In July 1922, the Second National Congress of the Communist Party of China passed the Resolution on "Democratic United Front", which marked the formal proposal of our party’s United front policy. On October 4, 1939, Comrade Mao Zedong summed up the United front as one of the three magic weapons for the Party to defeat the enemy in the China Revolution in his "Introduction to communist party People". In November, 2021, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China’s Resolution on the Great Achievements and Historical Experience of the Party’s Centennial Struggle adopted by the Sixth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee took "upholding the United front" as a historical experience of the Party’s Centennial Struggle. In October 2022, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader further emphasized in the Party’s Report to the 20th CPC National Congress: "The United front is a powerful magic weapon to unite people and gather strength."

  The multi-party cooperation and political consultation system led by the Communist Party of China (CPC), as a basic political system in China, is a great political creation of the people of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and China, democratic parties and personages without party affiliation, and it is a new political party system grown from the soil of China. For a long time, the democratic parties and the Communist Party of China (CPC) have coexisted for a long time, supervised each other, treated each other with sincerity, shared weal and woe, performed the function of democratic supervision, and made important contributions to helping the Communist Party of China (CPC) make scientific, democratic and legal decisions. The picture shows that on March 5, 2023, the first session of the 14th Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference held a press conference for the leaders of the Democratic Party Central Committee and the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce in the Great Hall of the People.

  In the new era, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has made overall arrangements for the United front work from the strategic height of governing the country. Under the guidance of the important thought of the Supreme Leader General Secretary on doing a good job in the party’s United front work in the new era, the United front work has made historic achievements, and the United front has shown a good situation of unity, forge ahead, pioneering and active.

  "Now, the United front work is not outdated and unimportant, but more important." In this important article, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader raised the flag with firm and powerful words. "The United front is an important magic weapon for the party to defeat the enemy, govern and rejuvenate the country, and unite all Chinese people at home and abroad to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. It must be adhered to for a long time"; It is clearly emphasized that "the historical position of the party, the internal and external situation it faces, and the mission and tasks it shoulders have undergone some major changes. The greater the change, the more it is necessary to develop the United front and carry out the United front work well."

  "We must solve the problems of people’s heart and strength"

  "People’s hearts turn to the back, power contrast is the key to the success or failure of the cause of the party and the people, and it is the biggest politics. The essential requirement of United front work is great unity and unity, which solves the problem of people’s heart and strength. "

  The United front is born of unity and thrives on unity. The Party always adheres to great unity and unity, unites all forces that can be United, mobilizes all positive factors that can be mobilized, promotes the harmony of political party relations, ethnic relations, religious relations, class relations and compatriots at home and abroad, and maximizes the strength of common struggle. Today, China has formed a broad patriotic united front led by the Communist Party of China (CPC) and attended by all democratic parties and people’s organizations, including all socialist workers, builders of socialist cause, patriots who support socialism, patriots who support the reunification of the motherland and patriots who are committed to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

  统一战线是一致性和多样性的统一体。只有一致性、没有多样性,或者只有多样性、没有一致性,都不能建立和发展统一战线。正确处理一致性和多样性关系,奠定了统一战线建立、发展和巩固的重要基础,决定了统战工作的全部内容,是统一战线理论创新与实践发展的重要基石。一部统战史,就是一部形成、巩固、发展一致性,尊重、包容、引导多样性的历史,处理一致性和多样性是各个历史时期统战工作的主线。

  The new era and new journey put forward new and higher requirements for the United front work to correctly handle the relationship between consistency and diversity. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader made a series of important expositions and profoundly expounded this important issue. On May 18, 2015, at the Central United Front Work Conference, it was emphasized that to do a good job in United Front Work under the new situation, we must correctly handle the relationship between consistency and diversity and constantly consolidate the common ideological and political foundation; On September 20, 2019, at the working meeting of the Central Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and the celebration of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the China People’s Political Consultative Conference, it was emphasized that the CPPCC should play the role of United front organization, adhere to great unity and unity, and adhere to consistency and diversity.

  In this important article, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader further emphasized that to correctly handle the relationship between consistency and diversity, "the key is to persist in seeking common ground while reserving differences and carry forward ‘ Unity — Criticism — Unity ’ The fine tradition of seeking consistency in respecting diversity, finding the greatest common denominator and drawing the greatest concentric circle. "

  "We must persist in developing and perfecting the new political party system in China"

  "The multi-party cooperation and political consultation system led by the Communist Party of China (CPC), as a basic political system in China, is a great political creation of the people of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and China, democratic parties and personages without party affiliation, and a new political party system that grew out of the soil of China."

  On March 4, 2018, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader delivered an important speech when attending the joint meeting of the members of the 13th session of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, incisively expounding the unique advantages and distinctive features of the new political party system in China, and profoundly revealing the essential differences between China’s political party system of "communist party’s leadership, multi-party cooperation, communist party’s governance and multi-party participation in politics" and the western multi-party system and two-party system.

  The new political party system in China has developed in the great process of socialist revolution, construction and reform. After the founding of New China, the Communist Party of China (CPC) put forward the policy of "long-term coexistence and mutual supervision", and then further developed it into the policy of "long-term coexistence, mutual supervision, treating each other with all sincerity and sharing weal and woe", which established the long-term existence and development pattern of the new political party system in China. In 1993, "the system of multi-party cooperation and political consultation led by the Communist Party of China (CPC) will exist and develop for a long time" was written into the Constitution. In 2005, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China formulated opinions on further strengthening the construction of multi-party cooperation and political consultation system under the leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC), and in 2006 formulated opinions on strengthening the work of the CPPCC. The new political party system in China has been maturing, stereotyped and innovated.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has vigorously promoted the theoretical, policy and practical innovation of multi-party cooperation, strengthened the overall leadership of multi-party cooperation, and promoted the construction of multi-party cooperation system. Practice has proved that the new political party system in China is a basic political system conducive to national development, national rejuvenation, social progress and people’s happiness.

  In this important article, the Supreme Leader General Secretary put forward two requirements on "we must persist in developing and perfecting the new political party system in China". First, "the United front must adhere to the leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC), and at the same time promote multi-party cooperation to show a new atmosphere, achieve new improvement in ideological consensus, and perform their duties and responsibilities to show new achievements." Second, "all democratic parties should be good advisers, helpers and colleagues of the Communist Party of China (CPC), and strive to become Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s participating parties with firm politics, solid organization, strong performance, excellent work style and sound system".

  "It is necessary to build a strong sense of the Chinese national community as the main line of the party’s national work"

  "It is necessary to fully implement the Party’s 20th National Congress, accurately grasp the new stage features of the Party’s ethnic work, take building a strong sense of the Chinese nation community as the main line of the Party’s ethnic work and all work in ethnic areas, and constantly strengthen and improve the Party’s ethnic work".

  On the afternoon of October 27th, 2023, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader delivered an important speech when he presided over the ninth collective study of the 20th the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, which clearly emphasized the significance and role of building a strong sense of the Chinese nation community and put forward clear requirements for promoting the high-quality development of the Party’s ethnic work in the new era.

  National unity is the lifeline of the people of all ethnic groups in China, and the sense of Chinese national community is the foundation of national unity. The formation of the Chinese nation community is the inevitable result of the historical development of the Chinese nation. China’s vast territory is jointly developed by all ethnic groups; The long history is written by all ethnic groups; Brilliant culture is jointly created by all ethnic groups; The great spirit is cultivated by all ethnic groups. Facts fully show that it is the recognition of the Chinese nation community that plays a decisive role in the formation of the Chinese nation, rather than factors such as race, blood, region and religion.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee, with the Supreme Leader as the core, has focused on the new situation and new features faced by ethnic work in the new era, creatively put forward the major thesis of "building a strong sense of the Chinese nation community" and led ethnic work to a new level in innovation and development. In May, 2014, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader clearly put forward a major thesis of "the consciousness of the Chinese nation community" at the second Central Xinjiang Work Forum. In October, 2017, the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China officially wrote "Building the Consciousness of the Chinese National Community" into party constitution. In March 2018, a meeting of the 13th National People’s Congress passed a constitutional amendment, and the word "Chinese nation" was written into the fundamental law of the country for the first time.

  It is the "program" of the party’s national work in the new era to build a strong sense of the Chinese national community, and all work should focus on this. In this important article, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader clearly demanded: "We must unswervingly follow the correct path of solving ethnic problems with China characteristics, promote the firm recognition of the great motherland, the Chinese nation, Chinese culture, the Communist Party of China (CPC) and Socialism with Chinese characteristics by all ethnic groups, and guide the people of all ethnic groups to firmly establish the community concept of sharing weal and woe, sharing weal and woe, and sharing destiny."

  "We must adhere to the direction of China religion in China"

  "Adhere to the direction of China religion in China and actively guide religion to adapt to socialist society".

  In December 2021, at the National Conference on Religious Work, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader systematically expounded the new ideas, new concepts and new strategies of religious work in the new era, and made clear the guiding ideology, strategic objectives, key tasks and policy measures for adhering to the direction of China-oriented religion in China and doing a good job in religious work in the new era.

  Religious work is an overall and strategic work related to the ruling future and destiny of the party. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has attached great importance to religious work, put forward a series of new ideas and new measures on religious work, and answered major theoretical and practical questions such as how to understand religion, how to deal with religious issues and how to do a good job in the Party’s religious work in the new era. The party’s religious work has been innovated and promoted, and positive results have been achieved. The implementation of the Party’s basic policy on religious work has been more comprehensive, the system and mechanism of religious work have been further improved, the legal system and policy framework of religious work have been increasingly improved, religious figures and religious believers have been increasingly aware of respecting the law and abiding by the law, and the China of religion in China has been gradually deepened.

  It is the trend and law of religion’s survival and development that religion adapts to its society. Both local religions and foreign religions should constantly adapt to the development of our society, enrich the connotation of the times, and promote religious harmony, social harmony and national harmony. In this important article, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed that it is necessary to "fully implement the Party’s theory, principles and policies on religious work in the new era, persist in protecting legality, stopping illegality, containing extremes, resisting infiltration, cracking down on crimes, improving the level of legalization of religious work, supporting the religious circles to strictly manage religion in an all-round way, and actively guiding religion to adapt to socialist society".

  "We must do a good job in the United front work of non-party intellectuals and people of new social strata"

  "The work of non-party intellectuals is an important work of the United front."

  Non-Party intellectuals, as pioneers of productive forces, creators of culture and disseminators of knowledge, are an irreplaceable important force in implementing the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education, strengthening the country through talents and driving development through innovation. At present, China’s population with college education or above has exceeded 218 million, about 170 million of whom are outside the party, and the number will continue to increase by several million every year in the future. "The new social stratum is the builder of socialism with Chinese characteristics", which mainly includes management technicians of private enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises, employees of intermediary organizations and social organizations, freelancers, and employees of new media. According to the survey in 2021, its total number is about 91 million. Practice has proved that doing a good job in the United front work of non-party intellectuals and new social strata is related to consolidating the class foundation and mass foundation of the party’s governance.

  In this important article, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader put forward the requirement that "to do a good job of non-party intellectuals, full respect is the premise, strengthening guidance is the key, and giving play to its role is the purpose"; For the new social strata, "we should organize them, strengthen guidance and play a role." In the Party’s Report to the 20th CPC National Congress, the General Secretary further demanded: "Strengthen the ideological and political work of non-party intellectuals, do a good job in the work of new social strata, and strengthen the political guidance of common struggle."

  "We must promote the healthy development of non-public economy and the healthy growth of non-public economic people"

  "Promoting the healthy development of the non-public economy and the healthy growth of non-public economic people is a major economic issue and a major political issue."

  China’s non-public economy has developed under the guidance of the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s policies since the reform and opening up, which is an important foundation for stabilizing the economy, an important source of national tax revenue, an important subject of technological innovation, an important support for financial development and an important force for sustained and healthy economic development. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly reiterated "two unwavering" and "three unchanged", emphasizing: "unswervingly consolidate and develop the public sector of the economy, and unswervingly encourage, support and guide the development of the non-public sector of the economy"; "The position and role of the non-public sector of the economy in China’s economic and social development have not changed. Our principles and policies of unswervingly encouraging, supporting and guiding the development of the non-public sector of the economy have not changed. Our principles and policies of creating a good environment and providing more opportunities for the development of the non-public sector of the economy have not changed."

  Both the public-owned economy and the non-public-owned economy are important components of the socialist market economy and an important foundation for China’s economic and social development. The public economy and the non-public economy complement each other and complement each other. Consolidating and developing the public economy well is not antagonistic to encouraging, supporting and guiding the development of the non-public economy, but organically unified. Any view that wants to deny the public ownership economy or the non-public ownership economy is not in the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people, is not in line with the requirements of China’s reform and development, and is wrong.

  Private economy is the main economic organization form of non-public economy and the internal element of China’s economic system. Private enterprises and private entrepreneurs are our own people. In this important article, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader once again stressed from a political perspective that "the healthy development of the non-public economy and the healthy growth of non-public economic people must be promoted", and clearly demanded that "the education of ideals and beliefs should be carried out in depth, the pro-Qing political and business relations should be promoted, the high-quality development of the private economy should be promoted, and the non-public economic people should be guided to be qualified builders of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s cause".

  "We must give full play to the role of United front work in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and overseas to win people’s hearts."

  On May 9, 2023, the 10th World Association of Overseas Chinese Associations closed in Beijing. The conference received enthusiastic support and active participation from overseas Chinese, and nearly 500 overseas Chinese delegation leaders from more than 130 countries and regions participated in offline activities.

  The vast number of compatriots from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and overseas Chinese are Chinese sons and daughters linked by blood. Doing their work well is of great significance to maintaining the long-term prosperity and stability of Hong Kong and Macao, promoting the peaceful development of cross-strait relations, and uniting all Chinese sons and daughters to work together for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese dream. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has inherited and developed our party’s scientific theory on "one country, two systems", which has effectively promoted the practice of "one country, two systems" to be stable and far-reaching. Comprehensively promote the theoretical and practical innovation of Taiwan work, form the overall strategy of the party to solve the Taiwan Province issue in the new era, firmly grasp the leading power and initiative of cross-strait relations, vigorously safeguard peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, and solidly promote the process of reunification of the motherland; We attach great importance to overseas Chinese affairs and emphasize the close unity of the vast number of overseas Chinese and returned overseas Chinese and their relatives, and give play to their positive role in the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

  In this important article, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader put forward clear requirements around "we must give full play to the role of United front work in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and overseas to win people’s hearts". In the field of Hong Kong and Macao, the General Secretary called for "developing and strengthening the forces that love Hong Kong and Macao, enhancing the national consciousness and patriotic spirit of our compatriots in Hong Kong and Macao, maintaining the long-term prosperity and stability of Hong Kong and Macao, and ensuring ‘ One country, two systems ’ Practice is steady and far-reaching "; In the field of Taiwan, the General Secretary called for "implementing the Party’s overall strategy of solving the Taiwan Province issue in the new era, developing and strengthening Taiwan Province’s patriotic unity force, and opposing ‘ Taiwan independence ’ Separatist acts to promote the complete reunification of the motherland "; With regard to overseas United front work and overseas Chinese affairs, the General Secretary called for "actively guiding overseas Chinese and their families who have returned overseas Chinese to devote themselves to the modernization and peaceful reunification of the motherland around the theme of sharing the Chinese dream together".

  "We must strengthen the construction of non-party representatives"

  On December 6th, 2023, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, Zhongnanhai, Beijing, held a forum for non-party people to listen to the opinions and suggestions of the leaders of the central committees of democratic parties, the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce and representatives of non-party people on the economic situation in 2023 and economic work in 2024. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader presided over the forum and delivered an important speech.

  It is our party’s consistent policy to train and use non-party representatives and attach importance to their role in the country’s political and social life. In different historical periods, our party has always regarded uniting and cultivating non-party representatives as an important aspect of the overall work of the party and the state and an important political advantage in governing the country from a strategic height that determines the balance of power and affects the success or failure of the cause.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly stressed: "We should intensify the training, selection and use of non-party representatives, and strive to cultivate a team of non-party representatives who consciously accept the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership, unswervingly follow the Socialism with Chinese characteristics road, and have strong representativeness and the ability to participate in and discuss state affairs." A series of new ideas, new ideas and new strategies put forward by the General Secretary have scientifically answered the important strategic question of "What kind of non-party representatives our party needs in the new era and how to cultivate such a team of non-party representatives", which has provided direction guidance and fundamental follow-up for promoting the construction of non-party representatives in the new era.

  Talent growth depends on both individual efforts and organizational training. In this important article, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized: "It is necessary to strengthen training, improve quality, use it scientifically and play its role, and strive to train a group of non-party representatives who work closely with our party."

  "We must grasp the law of doing a good job in United front work"

  To do a good job in the United front work under the new situation, we must grasp the laws, adhere to the principles, pay attention to the methods, and the most fundamental thing is to uphold the leadership of the party. In the United front work, the policies and measures adopted should be conducive to upholding and consolidating the party’s leading position and ruling position. At the same time, we should also see that the United front work is the party’s special mass work, and there must be special ways and means.

  In this important article, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader focused on grasping the law of doing a good job in United front work, emphasizing that "it is necessary to strengthen unity and contact with non-party people, adhere to the principle of respecting, safeguarding and taking care of the interests of allies, treat them with sincerity, move them with emotion, understand them with reason, and help them with reality, so as to truly win the respect and recognition of non-party people and make a large number of non-party friends for the party."

  In a sense, whether the United front work is done well depends on how many friends you have made, whether you are qualified or not, and whether you are iron enough. Make a wide range of friends, the more friends, the better, especially some close friends who can speak their minds. We should make friends with the patience of making kung fu dishes like the Buddha jumping over the wall, make more contacts, have more heart-to-heart talks, pay attention to respect and sincerity, and realize real communication, in-depth understanding and emotional integration. It is necessary to unblock the channels of interest expression, communicate with non-party people often, do more practical things, do good things and solve problems for them, and truly win the respect and recognition of non-party people.

  "We must strengthen the Party’s overall leadership over the United Front work"

  "Strengthen the party’s centralized and unified leadership over the United front work, ensure that the party takes the overall situation and coordinates all parties in the United front work, and ensure that the United front work always advances in the correct political direction."

  On December 21st, 2020, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China issued the revised Regulations on United Front Work in the Communist Party of China (CPC). The outstanding feature of the revised "Regulations" is that it runs through the party’s centralized and unified leadership over the United front work, regards upholding the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership as the primary principle of the United front work, and clarifies the party’s leading position in commanding the overall situation and coordinating all parties in the United front work.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has made strategic arrangements for the work of the United front in various fields, which has effectively strengthened the Party’s overall leadership over the United front work, and the pattern of the great United front work jointly done by all parties has gradually taken shape. In 2015, the Central Leading Group for United Front Work was established, and then local party committees at all levels set up leading groups for United Front Work accordingly, which further promoted party committees at all levels to fulfill their main responsibilities for United Front Work from the organizational structure. In the reform of the party and state institutions in 2018, the CPC Central Committee made it clear that the United Front Work Department of the Central Committee led the State Ethnic Affairs Commission, managed religious work and overseas Chinese affairs, merged the State Bureau of Religious Affairs and the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council into the Central United Front Work Department, and kept the State Bureau of Religious Affairs and the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council. Overseas Chinese affairs departments of all provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) are basically incorporated into the United Front Work Department of the Party Committee at the same level, and ethnic and religious work departments are uniformly led by the United Front Work Department of the Party Committee at the same level. These major measures have further strengthened the centralized and unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee over the United front work.

  The historic achievement of the United front work in the new era lies in the fact that the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader is the core of the CPC Central Committee and the whole party at the helm, and in the important ideological and scientific guidance of Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era, especially the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader on doing a good job in the United front work of the Party in the new era. In this important article, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader clearly emphasized: "The United front is the United front led by the party, and it is necessary to ensure the party’s overall leadership over the United front work. The United front work is the work of the whole party. It must be paid attention to by the whole party and done by everyone together, and a great United front work pattern with unified leadership by the Party Committee, coordination by the United front department and responsibilities of relevant parties should be built. "

  "the deeper you know, the more you can do." General Secretary Supreme Leader’s important thought on doing a good job in the party’s United front work in the new era is strategically located, profound and rich in connotation. It is an organic whole with strict logic and internal unity and a systematic and complete theoretical system. We should deeply understand the decisive significance of the "two establishment", strengthen the "four consciousnesses", strengthen the "four self-confidences" and achieve the "two maintenance", combine the in-depth study and implementation of this important thought with the in-depth study and implementation of the spirit of the 20th Party Congress and the latest important speech and important instructions of the General Secretary, solidly promote the work of the United front in all fields, and gather great strength for comprehensively promoting the construction of a strong country and the great cause of national rejuvenation with Chinese modernization.

Chinese businessmen in Russia: from the bitter experience of the ruble crash to "earning 100 thousand dollars in ten minutes"

"How did the ruble depreciate again recently?" Xu Xiujuan, a female boss from Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province, is a little anxious in a shop that wholesales denim clothes in Blinault market.

Moscow Liu Blinault Market. The pictures in this article are all from Xinhua News Agency.

For Chinese businessmen in LiuBlinault market, keeping a close eye on the ruble exchange rate is a "compulsory course" every day. A few years ago, the injury caused by the ruble’s plunge has not been completely healed, and how to get out of the stormy big market is a new problem before us.

Wake up, the ruble is worthless.

Liu Blinault Market is the largest wholesale market for daily necessities such as clothes, shoes and hats, with about 6,000 stalls, one third of which are run by Chinese businessmen.

The stalls are crowded and the middle aisle is narrow. From time to time, porters with Central Asian faces push carts and shout "Excuse me".

Due to the underdeveloped light industry in Russia, Chinese businessmen have flocked to the Far East, Moscow and other places to seek gold since the 1990s, and "profiteering" once became synonymous with Chinese businessmen in Russia. From 2000 to 2008, the Russian economy entered a period of rapid growth, and the business of Chinese businessmen was also smooth.

After Russia was hit by the global financial crisis in 2008, the "collecting money" model of Chinese businessmen "earning a Mercedes-Benz a week" became a memory. In 2008 and 2014, the ruble plummeted twice, which brought a serious blow to Chinese businessmen.

Zheng Riwei and Hu Dongling run down jacket export business in Russia.Hu Dongling said that at that time, the exchange rate of the ruble fluctuated violently, and the ruble earned by selling goods could not be immediately exchanged for RMB or US dollars and sent back to China. Often, when I woke up, I found that the ruble I held was even less valuable. "I feel like I’m sleeping in the presidential suite every day, and all the money I lost overnight is worth the room money."

Yan Linfu, a businessman from Taizhou, Zhejiang Province, said that in 2015, the ruble exchange rate fluctuated too much, and product pricing was difficult, just like speculating in futures. Businesses engaged in non-governmental trade with Russia have lost more than 60%, and few have made profits.

Moscow Liu Blinault market.

Compared with the impact of the two rouble crashes, the Chinese businessmen have a more painful memory of the closure of the Cerchi Zovsky market.

In 2008, under the depression of Russian domestic economy, the boss of a big market went to Turkey to invest a lot of money and angered the Kremlin. The Russian government seized and destroyed the goods in the big market on the grounds of cracking down on "gray customs clearance", and then closed the market indefinitely. Tens of thousands of Chinese businessmen lost as much as $2 billion.

Due to the particularity of the Russian market, the problem of informal "grey customs clearance" has not been solved, and Chinese businessmen still face risks.

Yan Linfu said that the owner of Liu Blinault Market is a pair of Jewish brothers, and most Chinese businessmen pay management fees to them. Under their protection, Russian customs and tax authorities turn a blind eye to the "gray customs clearance". The "grey customs" cost is low, which lowers prices and meets the needs of low-income people in Russia. The special problems in this specific period can only be solved slowly.

Russia has a large market and a low threshold, and there is a rigid demand for clothing and other department stores, which is the reason why many Chinese businessmen are attached to this land. However, this market is full of troubles, so many merchants in Blinault have the mentality of taking a gamble and taking a chance.

Double 11 broke $100,000 in 10 minutes.

Zheng Riwei said that hardships gave birth to opportunities, and the blow in Russia prompted him to change his mind and try to cooperate with AliExpress, from wholesale to retail.

During AliExpress’s overseas "double 11" event last year, the ICEbear brand of Beijing Riwei Clothing Company, founded by Zheng Riwei, became the champion of clothing sales, with its revenue exceeding 100,000 US dollars in 10 minutes and 200,000 US dollars in half an hour.

On the AliExpress website, the fans of the ICEbear store have a collection of more than 370,000. On the sales page of a white women’s down jacket, buyers left thousands of messages, most of which praised the down jacket for its good quality and fast delivery.

According to Zheng Riwei, these down jackets specially for the Russian market are thicker than ordinary down jackets, and they have waterproof function, which can not only resist the cold weather in Russia, but also cope with the water droplets falling after melting snow.

In the view of Gou Shanchao, director of e-commerce operation of Riwei Clothing Company, cooperation with AliExpress has brought at least two major benefits to the company.

The first is to improve brand awareness. After joining the cross-border e-commerce platform, the company directly faces consumers, and customers’ recognition of the brand is improved. There are many Russian "loyal fans" who will take the initiative to ask when the new model will be available.

Second, products can be optimized in time according to customers’ needs. On the e-commerce platform, the company can get customer feedback at any time. If the buyer says there is something wrong with the version of this batch of clothes, the company can change it in time in the next batch of goods.

Gou Shanchao said that the company joined the cross-border e-commerce platform in 2014 and just started to deliver goods from China, and the arrival time was at least one month. In 2016, the company implemented overseas warehouses. First, large quantities of goods were sent to warehouses in Moscow. After customers placed orders, they were delivered directly from overseas warehouses, and the goods would arrive the next day in Moscow and nearby areas.

Since 2015, the Russian economy has fallen into negative growth, the people are not well off, and the price/performance ratio of goods is higher. With the help of cross-border e-commerce platform, some Chinese businessmen cut off the intermediary channels and directly connected with Russian consumers, so that consumers can buy high-quality goods at lower prices.

Going out of the big market, from "grey customs" to "white customs"

As the Secretary-General of Wenling Chamber of Commerce in Moscow (China), Yan Linfu is quite familiar with the living conditions of Chinese businessmen in Russia. Going out of the big market is his advice to Chinese businessmen.

Yan Linfu said that he is now "walking on two legs", not only doing wholesale in Liu Blinault market, but also setting up a company to do retail in Russia. The company opened a flagship store in the bustling section of Moscow and opened up online sales channels.

The sales model of Liu Blinault big market is to wait for customers to come to the door. Because of the small market scope and repeated customer resources, the vicious door-to-door bargain is inevitable. Yan Linfu believes that Chinese businessmen need to go out of LiuBlinault, face consumers directly and try online to offline.

In recent years, e-commerce has developed rapidly in Russia, and a large number of China goods with high quality and low price have directly reached Russian consumers through cross-border e-commerce platforms such as AliExpress.

As for the influence of cross-border e-commerce on the wholesale business, the merchants in LiuBlinault are unable to agree. Some Chinese businessmen believe that cross-border e-commerce has little impact on Liu Blinault’s business due to different groups of people. Others hold the opposite opinion that cross-border e-commerce leads to price transparency and has a great impact on wholesale business.

Alibaba once held a mobilization meeting in Yabao Road, Beijing to encourage businesses to try e-commerce and set up training courses. Many people tried, but few succeeded.

The reason is that Gou Shanchao believes that, first of all, businesses that trade with Russia do not pay enough attention to e-commerce. Many people are used to making big money by wholesale, while e-commerce earns small money every time; Secondly, many Chinese businessmen are born in entities, do not understand e-commerce, and have no professionals around them.

Zheng Riwei said that at present, the company’s delivery through the e-commerce channel is all "white customs", and all the procedures are legal from domestic registered companies to foreign registered companies. He suggested that Chinese businessmen bravely try to organize formal business and gradually turn "grey customs" into "white customs".

Liu Wei, director of AliExpress Russian Station of Alibaba, said that China merchants who have branches and stocks in like Riwei Clothing belong to the partners of AliExpress localization business. This year is the first year of AliExpress’s localization business. At present, we are still carrying out infrastructure work in logistics and market. We hope to cooperate with more merchants in Yabao Road and Liu Blinault when conditions are ripe.

In the long run, normalization and branding are the general trend of Sino-Russian non-governmental trade. E-commerce can provide an opportunity for the transformation of Sino-Russian non-governmental trade and force Chinese businessmen to standardize their operations.

"Only through e-commerce can we truly make the brand bigger. The company not only has more confidence in deepening the Russian market, but also sets a goal of going global," Zheng Riwei said.

Some details of Meng Wanzhou’s arrest were exposed and law enforcement officials admitted that the procedure was wrong

  China News Service, Toronto, October 31, 2008. A round of hearing on Meng Wanzhou’s extradition case about the abuse of procedures by Canadian law enforcement agencies in the process of arrest ended on October 30, local time in the High Court of British Columbia, Canada. Witnesses from Canadian law enforcement agencies admitted that there were mistakes in the process of arresting Meng Wanzhou when they appeared in court for cross-examination.

  During this five-day hearing, three witnesses from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and the Border Services Agency appeared in court successively and were cross-examined by both the prosecution and the defense. This is also the first time to let the outside world know about the specific process of Canadian law enforcement agencies arresting Meng Wanzhou, vice chairman and chief financial officer of Huawei, at Vancouver International Airport on December 1, 2018.

  Officer of the Royal Mounted Police admitted that the procedure was "wrong"

  The first half of the court was Winston Yep, a police officer of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. He admitted that he knew this was a "high-profile" case before he acted.

  Ye gave an affidavit to the judge before the action, describing that Meng Wanzhou has "no connection" with Canada. He signed his name without verifying the background information, and later found that the content was inconsistent with the facts, but he did not make corrections or any remedial measures. He admitted that it was his "mistake".

  In this case, the content of the affidavit is the only source of information that the judge can rely on when deciding whether to issue a provisional arrest warrant.

  During the operation, law enforcement officers failed to "immediately arrest" Meng Wanzhou on the plane according to the arrest warrant. Ye explained that this was due to "security concerns" and respect for the "jurisdiction" of the Border Service at the airport, but he did not mention security or jurisdiction issues in any notes or documents.

  Ye said that she was worried that Meng had anti-reconnaissance ability and that she carried a knife with her. However, when Meng Wanzhou got off the plane, the law enforcement officers did not search whether she was armed, but confiscated and searched her electronic equipment.

  Ye also failed to comply with the prosecution’s prior request to write an event schedule after the action. For many details such as changing the action plan, Ye responded that he had "forgotten".

  Meng Wanzhou’s defense lawyer said in court that Ye’s answers to some questions were not honest.

  Border officials admitted giving the password to the police by mistake.

  In the second half of the hearing, kirkland, an official of the Canada Border Service Agency, was the main person who appeared in court for questioning. He said that before the action, he learned that Meng Wanzhou was listed as a "national security" alert figure by the Canadian Border Service. However, after interrogating Meng, he thought that she was not involved in national security issues.

  Kirkland said that he had collected Meng Wanzhou’s mobile phone and put it in a radiation-proof bag provided by the FBI. He denied that the Border Service was collecting mobile phones for the FBI, but he was not sure whether the RCMP would hand over the items to the US.

  He admitted that he "inadvertently" handed the note with Meng Wanzhou’s mobile phone password and his mobile phone to the RCMP, which basically violated the privacy law. He said that he felt heartache and headache.

  Kirkland also admitted that she was really worried that the delay in executing the arrest warrant due to the interrogation of Meng would affect her rights.

  The defense lawyer of Bangladesh believes that the border service agency’s practice is a trick to use the privilege to interrogate Bangladesh without a lawyer present and without telling the real reason for the confiscation of the mobile phone.

  The witness who briefly appeared in court in the last half day of this round of hearing was Bryce McRae, an official in charge of the Canada Border Service Agency. He confirmed that the day before Meng Wanzhou flew to Vancouver, the US Federal Bureau of Investigation called and "unusually" asked the Canadian Border Service to provide the telephone number of the supervisor on duty the next day. However, the next day, the FBI did not report electricity.

  McRae said that he "can’t remember" some specific questions about the pre-action meeting and the process of intercepting and interrogating Meng Wanzhou.

  Meng Wanzhou’s team of lawyers has always believed that there was procedural abuse in this case, so the extradition procedure should be suspended and three branches should be set up to appeal. One is to prove the political nature of the case with the statements of senior politicians in the United States; The second is to demonstrate that there is procedural abuse in the process of detention of Meng by Canadian law enforcement agencies at the airport; The third is to point out that the case records and other documents provided by the United States to Canadian officials are misleading, and there are major omissions and misstatements. This round of hearing belongs to the second branch.

  In this round of hearing, the prosecution lawyer tried to prove that the arrests were in line with the process requirements, and the mistakes did not hinder the effectiveness of extradition.

  Because the progress of questioning witnesses is slower than expected, the court will investigate the follow-up schedule, and will hold more sessions in November and December to continue cross-examination of witnesses and conduct hearings on other branches. The next hearing will begin in mid-November.
