Blooming female power, living up to the times. In recent years, more and more female investors have become the powerful helmsmen of venture capital institutions and investment ecological platforms. With their keen vision, they have discovered excellent entrepreneurs and invested in surprising projects. Recently, the 21st Century Business Herald, Financing China, Fund of funds Research Center and other institutions focused on the female groups in the front line of investment, and conducted the selection of the female investors list. Wang Ying, general manager of Chang Development, was on the list and won many honors such as "2022-2023 influential female investors", "2022 best female investors", and "2023 best female fund of funds investors Top 30".

Recently, the financial industry also launched a series of "Her Economy · Her Power" planning, conducted an in-depth interview with Wang Ying, general manager of Chang Development, and conducted in-depth discussions on hot topics such as the development of strategic emerging industries, financial support for the real economy, and young people’s entrepreneurship.

Wang Ying is the general manager of Chang Development. More than 10 years ago, she entered the investment industry and engaged in strategic investment, industrial investment and post-investment management in central enterprises. In 2015, Wang Ying became attached to Chang Development and created and managed the Changping District science and technology industry fund of funds, as well as the Changping District key scientific and technological achievements transformation and industrial project guidance fund. During this period, she invested in well-known enterprises such as Aibo Medical, Fanshengzi, Nuocheng Jianhua, and Baiji Shenzhou.

Key points to refine:

Through the fund of funds, equity funds and direct investment funds, Chang Development has invested in more than 30 direct investment projects. These enterprises are a combination of "leading scientists + serial successful entrepreneurs", with a very solid underlying technology platform, strong execution, and mature commercial application cases for actual scene needs, forming a growth driver and a manifestation of actual value.

In terms of empowering after investment, Chang Development has proposed a one-stop industrial ecological platform to help enterprises grow throughout the whole cycle. For example, it provides FA (financing acceleration) services for investee companies, uses fund of funds system to invest in sub-funds and other cooperative funds, and matches investment institutions for the next round of financing of investee companies; uses the resource advantages of industrial parks to provide industrial space bearers for the whole chain from early incubators to pilot production plants, and then to the headquarters of mature leading enterprises listed companies.

Whether it is a fund of funds or a direct investment fund, Chang Development’s investment is not limited to Changping. In the future, the park business will also be accompanied by the development needs of corporate customers to output some asset-light management service capabilities, releasing tentacles and links to a wider area.

Looking ahead to the next five years, healthcare, intelligent manufacturing, energy technology, and new generation information technology are all promising tracks for Chang Development. On these tracks, Chang Development not only hopes to capture some industry leaders in the Pre-IPO stage, but also pays attention to scientists or serial successful entrepreneurs in the early stage. Chang Development is willing to accompany them in the starting stage.

No matter whether it is entrepreneurship or investment, it is not a particularly easy task. It can be described as a life-or-death situation. Only by maintaining the original intention and staying resilient can we achieve success.

　

Drawing on white paper, creating and managing tens of billions of funds

As the trader of the government guidance fund, Wang Ying led Chang Development to gradually develop into a complex and comprehensive investment platform, helping the industrial integration and development of Changping region. She introduced: "On the one hand, Chang Development focuses on key industries in Changping, such as Future Science City, Life Valley, Energy Valley and Shahe Higher Education Park, focusing on key industries such as medicine and health, advanced manufacturing, energy technology, digital economy, etc., to carry out direct investment and indirect investment of the fund.

On the other hand, Chang Development also invests in industrial infrastructure, operates and manages an industrial park with a scale of 1 million square meters, covers the ladder carrier construction model of incubators, accelerators, crowd creation spaces, corporate headquarters, and professional industrial parks, and provides enterprises with professional technical thresholds and deep empowering technology services. "

Since 2016, Chang Development has managed two government guidance funds in Changping District as a manager, focusing on early-stage funds and projects. In November 2022, Chang Development improved the life cycle layout of fund of funds and started the establishment of fund of funds group in Changping science and technology industry. On the basis of existing fund of funds, mid-to-late fund of funds and S fund and other types of funds were added. The main participants are leading financial investment institutions in various industrial fields and leading enterprises inside and outside the region. According to the official introduction, as of now, the fund of funds system has more than 40 cooperative sub-funds in the fields of medicine and health, intelligent manufacturing, and pan-TMT, nearly 1,000 direct and indirect investment projects, more than 120 investments in Changping enterprises, and the amount of investment in Changping District is nearly 2.80 billion yuan.

Regarding the Changping technology industry fund of funds group, Wang Ying said: "The previous fund of funds was mainly based on early and medium-term investment. The upgrade of the fund of funds group will be extended to mid-to-late investment in the investment stage. In the matrix, key industry project guidance funds and self-managed brand direct investment funds will also be set up. At the same time, more equity investment institutions will be attracted to Changping to register and develop and carry out investment. In addition, the establishment of S fund of funds will also be initiated to do a good job in the continuation and relay of fund shares."

On January 5 this year, Chang Development was listed on the New Third Board. Regarding the future journey of capital markets, Wang Ying said: "This year, there are plans to transfer the innovation layer on the New Third Board, and in the future, we will also launch an impact on the Beijing Exchange at an appropriate time. We hope to make Chang Development a market-oriented operation mechanism, and at the same time be able to undertake the function of industrial development. Professional, international and branded state-owned capitalization operation platform."

　

Focus on sub-sectors and deeply empower the ecosystem

While the operation of the fund of funds system is constantly improving, Chang Development’s pace in direct investment is also becoming more and more stable. In October 2020, Chang Development established Zhiheng Direct Investment Fund.

Regarding the selection and investment criteria of direct investment projects, Wang Ying introduced that Chang Development’s direct investment fund emphasizes vertical specialization and focus. At present, Chang Development’s direct investment team has two groups, one focusing on medicine and health, and the new consumer medical and pan-health industries represented by medical aesthetics. The other group focuses on advanced manufacturing, energy technology and digital economy.

Wang Ying said: "For us, the cooperation of the sub-fund is to make Moments bigger, to make an industry map, to make a portfolio, and to make a face. The direct investment fund is more about doing something. Through more precise and direct investment, we will focus on supporting and focusing on sub-segments, enterprises to establish bonds and connections, and to do better empowerment."

At present, through the fund of funds, equity funds and direct investment funds, Chang Development has invested in more than 30 direct investment projects, investing in innovative drugs, medical apparatus, medical services, semiconductors, energy technology and other high-precision fields.

In the field of medical and health care, Chang Development has invested in innovative drug companies such as Yanming Biology and Beiqi Biology around the "Leading Scientist + Mature Entrepreneur" team, medical apparatus companies such as Pinchi Medical and Tupai Medical, and instrument and equipment companies such as Saiqiao Medical and Qingyuan Kaiwu, as well as medical service companies represented by Xihua Testing and Saifu Pharmaceutical; in the field of advanced manufacturing, Chang Development has also invested in the semiconductor inspection platform Ankun Vision, the intelligent hardware company Xiaoniao Technology, and the intelligent manufacturing flexible acceleration platform Wanlong Lean, as well as in the field of autonomous driving and energy technology. Investment in Guohong Hydrogen Energy.

"These companies are all characterized by a very solid underlying technology platform, strong execution, and mature commercial application cases for actual scenario needs, forming a growth driver and having the potential for long-term value," Wang Ying said.

In terms of empowering after investment, Chang Development has proposed a one-stop industrial ecological platform to help enterprises grow throughout the whole cycle. For example, it provides FA (financing acceleration) services for invested enterprises, and uses fund of funds system to invest in sub-funds and other cooperative funds to match investment institutions for the next round of financing of invested enterprises. Using the resource advantages of industrial parks, it provides industrial space for the whole chain from early incubators to pilot production plants, and then to the headquarters of mature leading enterprises listed companies. At present, the number of enterprises in the park has reached thousands.

In terms of professional and technical services, Chang Development has also invested in holding or participating in a number of technology service professional companies, which can assist some early-stage enterprises in prototype production, production system certification, production line sharing, etc., and help enterprises obtain registration approval with minimal investment and the fastest speed.

In addition, Chang Development also provides a lot of government industrial policy support, such as providing some policy docking around the introduction of talents, the application of national and municipal major project funds required in the process of enterprise landing, and the declaration of qualifications, etc., to help enterprises obtain the support and attention of the government platform, and also help enterprises obtain better PR publicity.

At present, four companies in Changfa’s direct investment projects have been successfully listed, the most representative of which is Aibo Medical. After successfully investing in Aibo Medical, the two parties jointly initiated the establishment of a direct investment fund. In addition, Changfa also helped the ophthalmic OCT innovation equipment company Tupai Medical and Aibo Medical to establish a joint venture to help enterprises jointly expand new market directions.

"The direct investment case represented by Aibo Medical has not only enabled us to achieve several times the considerable return on equity value financially, but also allowed us to penetrate and penetrate the sub-sector, build an ecosystem, and help the investee companies establish a more mandatory and updated moat from the early stage to the mature stage, and continue to strengthen and expand the agglomeration of the sub-sector," Wang Ying said.

　

Firm strategic qualitative, introduce and release vitality

Rational judgment, accurate attack, long-term company, as a government guidance fund, Chang Development has contributed a strong force in the upgrading and development of regional industries. For the future investment layout, Wang Ying and Chang Development have a longer-term and more international plan.

Wang Ying said that this year, we will continue to invest in key industries, around the industrial development action plan issued by the government, to do more accurate track combing and investment target screening, and will also increase the intensity of internationalization work. She further explained: "After the epidemic, we found that many multinational companies doing layout in Shanghai also realized the importance of layout in Beijing, so we have frequently inspected our parks recently. So we will also introduce multinational companies, as well as joint industrial capital to do some investment targets or fund layout overseas, and strive to bring more cutting-edge technologies to China and do industrialization in China."

In addition to the introduction, Chang Development will also accelerate the pace of "going out" this year. Wang Ying said: "Whether it is a fund of funds or a direct investment fund, our investment is not limited to Changping. At present, there are many projects outside Beijing that are already our investment targets. In the future, the park business may also be accompanied by the actual development needs of corporate customers to do some asset-light management service ability output, releasing our tentacles and links to a wider area."

Looking forward to the investment opportunities in the next five years, Wang Ying said that he still firmly believes in the current choice. In the field of medicine and health, Chang Development has long been optimistic about innovative drugs and high-end medical apparatus with global original level and solid underlying technology platform, as well as CXO service field. In the advanced manufacturing industry, he is optimistic about the core components related to robotics industry, military industry, and new energy vehicles. In terms of energy technology, he is optimistic about the application of new materials and new technologies, and the use of AI, cloud and traditional energy utilization to combine energy Internet, as well as projects to achieve breakthroughs in energy storage technology. In addition, around 5G and semiconductors, there are also many good teams and opportunities that can be captured.

"Generally speaking, on these tracks, we not only hope to capture some industry leaders in the pre-IPO stage to form the realization of commercial value, but also pay attention to serial successful entrepreneurs in the early stage, or big manufacturers who come out to start businesses. Whether they are scientists or entrepreneurs, we are willing to accompany them at a very early stage," Wang Ying said.

For more than a decade in the industry, Wang Ying has dealt with many entrepreneurs and investors. Looking back, she said that whether it is entrepreneurship or investment, it is not a particularly easy task. It can be said that only by maintaining the original intention and maintaining resilience can we always be.

"Whether the new economic situation is improving or the bubble period of the capital markets is falling, you need to have a firm strategic quality and very strong execution and a higher international vision. As long as you stick to your dreams, you will achieve it one day."

I haven’t seen Qingxia Lin for a long time. At the age of 69, his physical condition is truly amazing.

Recently, long-lost actress Lin Qingxia gave an interview to Taiwanese media, saying that she would soon return to Taiwan to attend the Golden Horse Awards ceremony.

She not only prepared her acceptance speech, but also hired her friend Zhang Shuping to tailor her beautiful clothes.

Lin Qingxia even revealed that for the Golden Horse Award, he managed to lose 5 kilograms in a month.

Judging from the photos posted by the media, Lin Qingxia’s temperament is still gentle, and the blessing of time has made her more elegant and generous.

The mental state of the whole person has also improved a lot.

But Yang remembered that some time ago, many people guessed whether she had Alzheimer’s disease…

Because in the photos circulating at that time, Lin Qingxia was talking to people, her eyes were slightly lax, her expression was in a trance, and her condition was somewhat similar to Alzheimer’s disease.

Furthermore, the text in her social media update at the time also clearly emphasized that she was concerned about Alzheimer’s disease, and all her actions raised some doubts.

But now it seems that everyone’s worries may be unnecessary.

I feel like I’m still in this state, my style is still the same, and I’ll have no problem staying in the entertainment industry for a few more years.

Needless to say, the current netizens were quite sensitive. Not to mention looking at pictures to make up stories, even their own bodies were making crazy guesses.

Sheep recently reported that many internet users have noticed a sudden decline in their memory and feel that they have entered the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease.

These "memory fragments" often appear in life.

I saw a real-world friend, but I couldn’t name him; I suddenly couldn’t remember how I had left my original place.

At first I thought I was getting older, but Yang recently saw a post saying that it might be because my brain is starting to deteriorate from too many short videos.

Many people expressed the same feeling. Since indulging in short videos, their memory has become worse and worse.

I became reluctant to think, and my brain became tired.

The whole person is very impulsive. I can’t stand reading large paragraphs of text, and my language skills are getting worse and worse.

My concentration has also dropped a lot, and my study and work efficiency have also decreased…

Let’s put it this way, does brushing your teeth too much really make your brain worse and dumber? How to hydrate your brain?

> > >

Short videos are addictive and expand the mind

Have you ever noticed that even if you’ve been working all day and are exhausted, as soon as you open a short video, you feel immediately happy and can’t even stop.

In fact, it is ultimately the brain’s fault.

Dopamine is unstoppable.

We have a mysterious "reward circuit" in our brains.

When we watch funny videos, our brain produces more dopamine than usual, causing feelings of excitement, pleasure, and happiness.

This feeling of happiness and excitement is like a reward, and the brain has a very strong desire for this reward.

This desire translates into a powerful motivation that motivates us to keep brushing our teeth.

Single women are obsessed with electronic boyfriends, migrant workers keep pets in the cloud of mobile phones, and some netizens turn into online judges…

This constant cycle of arousal is like a curse, making us dependent on short videos, even "addicted".

Degeneration of frontal lobe function

This addictive state causes the brain to go through two main stages. First, the cranial nerves produce a desensitization response.

After a period of "reward stimulation", the brain gradually gets used to this feeling of happiness and excitement.

At this moment, more stimulation is required to maintain a high level of arousal.

That said, you used to feel excited and happy by swiping short videos for two minutes, but now it can take an hour or more to reach the same level.

Then comes the second stage, the sensitization reaction.

As our brains become accustomed to achieving pleasure and excitement by swiping through short videos, we may gradually lose interest in other ways to achieve pleasure and excitement.

For example, reading books, acquiring new knowledge, exercising, etc.

Our hobbies will gradually merge into one, focusing only on cleaning short videos.

In the process of constant stimulation, desensitization, and sensitization, the function of the frontal lobe of our brain gradually deteriorates.

The prefrontal lobe is precisely the most advanced part of our brain, responsible for a variety of advanced cognitive functions, including memory, judgment, analysis, and thinking.

Over time, people will experience memory loss and poor learning.

Also, brushing short videos takes a lot of time and even affects the brain’s relaxation time. The level and activity of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine are also reduced.

This is not conducive to brain organization and memory consolidation, and it also increases the risk of Alzheimer’s disease.

By the way, this means that we office workers just want to relax after get off work every day, but we end up with early-onset Alzheimer’s disease?!

So what can we do to break this addiction? Is there a solution?

How to restore the brain to a highly intelligent state

Make sure to swipe short videos correctly

Schaap reveals a few tips to get rid of the excessive intrusion of short videos!

Mainly to generate resistance or rewards for playing mobile phones.

For example, if you need to focus on your work, you can leave your phone in another room, close it, or lock it in a drawer.

In this way, when we want to swipe short videos again, we are not happy at first, but this behavior is troublesome. Of course, we will stop brushing our teeth before we get into the habit.

Or set up a reward mechanism for yourself and divide the tasks you want to complete into N small goals.

Each time you complete a small goal, you can reward yourself by watching a 5 to 10 minute video. Set an alarm in advance and return to the original task as soon as the time is up.

Secondly, you can also try to choose videos that offer new knowledge or spiritual inspiration.

Avoid vulgar, negative or gratuitous "nipple fun" content.

For example, by using skill software, playing musical instruments, painting skills, etc., you can make good use of this time to improve your skills.

If you see a funny or inspiring short video, you can also share it with those around you to deepen the conversation.

Also, you can review relevant information to validate key points and delve deeper into the topic.

This not only helps you think differently, but also enhances your thinking skills.

Search for alternative entertainment activities

We can also use some other entertainment methods instead of brushing our teeth.

For example, once you step into building blocks, you can easily enter the heart flow state.

The mindfulness developed by this habit is also very beneficial for learning, and it can train people’s mindfulness very well.

Or find some handmade DIY is also good, such as digital oil painting, diamond painting, beading, crocheting and so on.

When you do these crafts, you can not only exercise program memory, but also improve working memory and activate the brain.

If you are too lazy to exercise, you can also lie down and watch sports events.

It can increase adrenaline, stimulate people’s minds, and generate positive encouragement at the same time.

After reading, not only will you not feel the emptiness and depression after entertainment, but you will also feel more in the mood to learn.

In addition to determining the time to brush your teeth and engage in other recreational activities, we can also supplement nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and tyrosine.

By supplementing the brain with nutrients, it regulates the metabolism of dopamine, acetylcholine, and other substances in the brain, maintaining brain health and improving attention and memory.

In this age of information explosion, short videos are indeed a double-edged sword.

It is difficult to stop completely, but we can use it as a tool rather than allowing it to control us.

The control of turning "electronic opium" into "electronic vegetable" is always in the hands of the person in front of the screen.

In fact, not only short videos, but also many things in our lives contain hidden damage.

For example, the "bare-leg artifact" has caused a lot of controversy recently. Every winter, the bare-leg artifact becomes a big hit. In winter, it can not only be matched with all kinds of beautiful skirts, but also fashionable, thin, and warm.

To be honest, I have been busy paying attention to the "invisibility" of the bare-leg artifact until today, when someone finally came forward to speak out about its drawbacks.

The bare-leg artifact is simply a "beautiful torture device". After wearing it for less than an afternoon, my feet were so strangled that I couldn’t even use my thumb.

Someone said that he was strangled to death by the "bare-leg artifact" Jiagou Yan…

In other words, is this bare-leg artifact really that scary?! What other dangers do we not know about? Can I still wear it?!

In the last month of 2023, the inventory pressure of automobile dealers eased.

As of December 31st, 2023, the latest issue of "Investigation on the Inventory Early Warning Index of Automobile Dealers in China" released by china automobile dealers association shows that the inventory early warning index of automobile dealers in China was 53.7% in December 2023, down by 4.5 percentage points year-on-year and 6.7 percentage points quarter-on-quarter. The inventory early warning index is above that of threshold, and the automobile circulation industry is still in a recession, but the prosperity has rebounded significantly. This is the lowest month since 2023.

It is worth noting that although the inventory pressure has eased, the terminal price war has increased. The price of American B-class cars dropped to 130,000 yuan, equivalent to the original price of A-class cars; Luxury brands have even introduced a price reduction of more than 100,000 yuan.

"The price is adjusted every month, even once every half month, mainly according to the changes in the market and the price strategy of competing products. In December, many manufacturers officially cut prices, and dealers also made profits out of their own pockets. For 4S stores, it is very important to complete the sales tasks of manufacturers and get rebates. Generally speaking, the amount of rebate can cover the loss of selling cars. " The sales manager of a car 4S shop told reporters that the terminal price war in 2023 almost runs through the whole year, and the competition is fierce. It is easy to take away customers who don’t cut prices.

The price war entered the sprint stage.

When the automobile market entered the fourth quarter of 2023, the automobile industry entered the sprint stage. Since November, 2023, automobile manufacturers have successively announced price cuts, and the market has started a new wave of price cuts. However, the price reduction at that time triggered the wait-and-see mood of some consumers. Although the passenger flow increased significantly, the transaction rate of many 4S stores did not meet expectations. In December, it entered the final sprint stage, and the market demand in the peak season began to be released continuously at the end of the year. According to the report of china automobile dealers association, at present, there are nearly 20 car companies that have announced the reduction of car prices, dealers have also increased limited-time preferential schemes, and local subsidies have been intensively introduced to fully promote car consumption. Driven by the tide of returning home, the superposition of the year-end promotion, passenger flow and sales volume exceeded expectations. It is estimated that the retail volume of passenger car terminals in December will be around 2.45 million, which is basically the same as that in December 2022.

The survey shows that the inventory index decreased in December, while the market demand, average daily sales, employees and operating conditions index increased. At the end of the year, consumers’ demand for cars continued to strengthen, and dealers’ operating conditions improved. Market demand and daily average sales index have entered the boom zone, while the other three sub-indexes are still in the slump zone.

From the inventory index of sub-brand types, the import and luxury, joint venture and independent brand indexes all showed a month-on-month decline in December. Among them, the import and luxury inventory early warning index was 53%, the mainstream joint ventures and independent brands were 54.4% and 53.4% respectively, which was significantly lower than last month. The inventory early warning index in November was 56.6%, 61.1% and 63.5% respectively.

According to the development law of the automobile market, the sales task at the end of the year is relatively heavy, especially in this year’s fierce market competition, dealers have to adopt the strategy of rapidly reducing prices. Among them, luxury car brands have relatively low inventory pressure, but the current preferential strength is unprecedented. According to car home’s website information, in Beijing, the maximum discount for mercedes benz c class is 136,000 yuan, the maximum discount for BMW 3 Series and Audi A4L is around 100,000 yuan, and the maximum discount for Mercedes-Benz E class is around 160,000 yuan. Since 2023, BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Audi have all been reported to make large subsidies to dealers.

On the other hand, at the end of 2023, some manufacturers reduced production, which eased the inventory pressure of dealers to some extent. On November 3rd, FAW Toyota released the production reduction to dealers and lowered the sales target from December 2023 to January 2024. In addition to reducing production, FAW Toyota also launched a new round of promotional activities. Consumers who purchase FAW Toyota models including Corolla, RAV4 Rongfang, Asia Dragon, Grevia, Crown Lu Fang, Lingfang, Ruifang, Asia Lion and Yize from December 1 to 18 can enjoy financial schemes such as direct purchase tax subsidy of 5,000 yuan, replacement subsidy of up to 6,000 yuan and low down payment/zero interest rate.

More than 60% of dealers have not completed the manufacturer’s tasks.

Despite the recovery of automobile consumption in December 2023, there is still a long way to go before the OEM’s assessment targets and expectations for dealers. Near the end of the year, dealers get year-end rebates to achieve the annual task objectives, and intensify the inventory clearance, but the profit pressure is still relatively high. Overall, the operating conditions of dealers in 2023 are not optimistic. According to the survey, 37.4% dealers have completed the annual task, 39.4% dealers have a task completion rate of 70%-90%, and 23.2% dealers still have a task completion rate of less than 70%, which is far from the annual task target.

Under the price war, the profitability of automobile dealers is weakened. "In the past, a 4S shop sold 100 cars a month, which was a big store in the main city, and it could also break even. But now under the price war, the price of new cars is seriously upside down, and it is impossible to make money by selling 3,000 cars a year. " A car brand dealer said that a number of dealer groups have begun to shrink the number of outlets and reduce the number of stores.

Judging from the discount rate of vehicle terminals, according to thinkercar discount data, by the end of November 2023, the discount rate of the whole industry was 12.62%, and the discount rate of fuel vehicles was 14%, much higher than that of new energy vehicles (9.3%). No matter the discount rate of fuel vehicles or new energy vehicles, there is no sign of turning heads in the current trend.

"The decline in consumer purchasing power is the main reason for the price war in the auto market, especially the decline in the purchasing power of low-end consumers. In 2022, the number of self-owned brands of vehicles under 100,000 yuan has dropped significantly. However, many dealers are now in a state of loss and have a high debt ratio. Manufacturers usually put inventory pressure on dealers to promote sales. This can be achieved through various commercial policies, such as manufacturers giving dealers a discount of 3,000 ~ 5,000 yuan or even 10,000 yuan for each car sold, or offering acceptance remittance, implementing a cash refund policy, or offering an interest-free policy. These policies will play a role when dealers purchase goods in large quantities. However, in the case of a downturn in the auto market, many dealers misjudged the prospects of the auto market, making it difficult to make a profit. " In an interview with reporters, the management of an independent car company said that in the past few years, the new car dealers could still make profits after the OEM rebate, but under the tide of large-scale price reduction in 2023, the financial pressure on dealers increased, even if they got the rebate, many dealers also lost money. "Some powerful dealers can make money in after-sales business by relying on the amount of ownership. Generally speaking, the after-sales business brought by car ownership can support the profit of dealers for three years, but in the case of continuous deterioration of the market, dealers will also face great survival pressure."

The overall profitability of dealers in 2023 has not been announced. However, from the first half of 2023, the joint venture brand suffered the most losses. In the first half of 2023, the investigation report on the living conditions of national automobile dealers showed that the overall profitability of luxury/imported brands was relatively good, about one third of dealers lost money, and nearly half of dealers realized profits. The loss-making dealers of joint venture brands and independent brands accounted for 51.3% and 48.0% respectively.

The pressure on joint venture brands is mainly due to the impact of independent new energy vehicles in 2023, and the market share of joint venture brands relying on fuel vehicle business is rapidly shrinking. According to the data of the Federation, the Japanese market share dropped from 24.1% in 2020 to 17.6% in the first half of 2023, with a drop of 6.5%, which was the most obvious decline. The market share of German cars dropped from 25.5% in 2020 to 21.4% in the first half of 2023. American models fell from 9.4% to 8.5%; Korean models dropped from 3.8% to 1.7%.

According to the latest report of Easy Car Research Institute, medium-sized cars have contributed major sales and profits to mainstream joint venture car companies such as Volkswagen, Toyota and Honda, which is similar to the "base camp" of joint venture car companies. Facing the challenges of competing products such as BYD, joint venture car companies have no retreat and can only burn their bridges. In the first three quarters of 2023, although the sales ranking of medium-sized cars was still dominated by Camry, Passat, Magotan and other fuel vehicles, the large-scale price reduction promotion made the vast majority of dealers operating fuel medium-sized cars in a state of losing money and earning money. At the beginning of 2024, BYD may set off a new round of price war focusing on medium-sized and above products, leaving little time for competing products such as Volkswagen, Toyota, Honda and Nissan. This time, it will directly hit the "last fortress" of joint venture car companies.

According to the china automobile dealers association report, looking forward to 2024, dealers believe that the automobile demand this year will continue the growth momentum in the second half of last year, but the competition will be more intense, and they will continue to face the problems of falling new car prices, high inventory pressure, tight funds and low bicycle profits.

A few days ago, the car announced its sales results for July. It sold 18,225 units in July, an increase of 18.88% year-on-year. At this time when the epidemic is plagued and there is a "lack of core", its results are very prominent. 01 and 03 are its two best-selling cars, followed by the coupe SUV05, and then the 09 and 05 + two new cars will be listed this year.

Unconsciously, it seems to have become the only applauded and called the independent luxury brand, its brand cumulative sales have broken through 556,000, according to this trend, it seems that next year can clock in millions of sales.

The road to upward breakthrough for independent brands has always been full of hardships. On the one hand, it is necessary to be technically strong, and on the other hand, it also faces the extrusion of joint ventures and imported brands. How did it rise step by step? Let Kung Fu Auto take you a look.

(1) Powerful self, dimensionality reduction blow

In the past, the failure of self-owned brands to rise was often due to two reasons. Either "sail under false colors", such as hiring a foreign designer, adding a NAPPA leather seat, and adding a variety of fancy configurations, it is said that its high-end, its own mechanical quality is still the same. Users look good, but they will be exposed after buying it home for a while.

Or it is not grounded, the most typical is that they have tinkered with a system, which is indeed different from the existing products. But the sales volume cannot be sustained, the cost has gone up again, and the things built behind closed doors are not much better. In the end, the road can only be narrower and narrower.

The height of the product starts from the most essential part, but it is still "grounded" and closely related to the actual needs of users.

Taking 01 as an example, it is based on the CMA architecture jointly developed with it. It has defined three global standards of safety, reliability and quality from the infrastructure. At the same time, the powertrain, chassis and electronic and electrical are built as "new three parts". It has both high safety and high quality, but also has excellent performance.

The full range of Drive-E 2.0TD turbocharged engines are available in T4 and T5 power options, allowing users to choose what they need according to their performance and economic needs. The 8AT automatic transmission has smooth gearshifts and little frustration, allowing for strong power output in low gears and extreme fuel economy in high grades. It can also learn by itself according to driving habits and automatically adjust the timing of gear changes to adapt to various complex environments.

Coupled with professional chassis tuning and BorgWarner’s fifth-generation intelligent four-wheel drive system, it can combine handling and comfort, and can easily adapt to various road conditions.

In terms of mechanical quality, it is undoubtedly outstanding compared to other domestic high-end brands. And it is not "high and low". Taking the CMA architecture as an example, it realizes resource sharing and scale effect among the group’s brands. This not only reduces the cost of research and development, but also has more inventory, and manufacturers can better control product quality.

This is the advantage. To put it bluntly, it is a brand that relies on the group and uses money to make a living. But it is not in vain. Its success also feeds back to other brands in the group, so as to achieve a win-win situation, which is difficult for other car companies to imitate.

(3) Adhere to individuality and outstanding temperament

In addition to providing excellent mechanical quality and balanced product strength, it is actually a very personalized brand. It has both 01 and 03 relatively "orthodox" models, and will also launch some personalized models according to user requests. This approach is traditionally thankless, but it has a good role in promoting brand perception.

The most typical is the 02, which is officially defined as a coupe SUV. In fact, it is a very typical crossover, even more like a wide-bodied hatchback. Everyone knows that hatchback sales have not been very good in recent years, and even the sales of the "magic car" Golf have been declining.

But it was in this market situation that he still chose to launch 02, its goal is to meet the needs of different consumer groups. Although it is destined not to have a big market, it is definitely difficult for users who like to control excellent cars to refuse.

He even went to great lengths to create a special 02 Hatchback version for it, which is equivalent to the official sports modified version of the 02. It uses a more powerful power system, further reduces the height of the body, and adjusts the chassis more sporty, resulting in better handling performance.

Just this year, several users have asked Kung Fu Auto, 02 Hatchback and Golf GTI who is more worthy of choice. This is a kind of progress. Before, such a field was definitely blank for domestic cars.

In addition, the "real" coupe SUV05 (the 02 is actually a crossover) and the entry-level SUV06 were also launched. The market for these two cars is actually not large, but compared to their peers, their competitiveness is still very good.

This is what it insists on. It can be said that it is not a completely "market-oriented" brand. Its product layout is quite personalized, and sometimes it even makes people feel that it is "too hard" in some easily overlooked parts. But it is not a "market-oriented" approach. Instead, it has made it favored by the market and has become the most popular independent luxury brand. It can only be said that the painstaking efforts pay off. When you pay for the user, the user also cares about your good.

(3) The future can be expected to continue to break through

In the coming months, two more blockbuster models will be launched, namely the sporty SUV05 + and the mid-to-large luxury SUV09.

Let’s talk about the 05 + first, it will use a new version of the 2.0T high-power engine, with a maximum power of 195kW, which is further improved compared to the 187kW output power of the 03 +. The new car will be equipped with a complete set of sports kits on the basis of the existing 05, including wheel hubs, front and rear lips, side skirts, spoilers, and calipers. These are all redesigned, and the chassis will be further strengthened.

The new car will also have the original rear wing, which can better play the speed. At the same time, it will also be equipped with racing-grade ventilated brake discs, which have higher resistance to heat aging, and can stop in time while enjoying the speed.

Needless to say, this will be another product that earns word-of-mouth in advance. There is only one domestic brand that does these things.

The upcoming 09 will be the brand’s first 7-seater car and will also become the current flagship model. The new car will be based on the SPA architecture, which is considered to be the key to the rapid growth of the last decade. The whole series is equipped with a 2.0T + 48v light hybrid system as standard, providing strong performance and excellent NVH feel.

In addition, its luxury construction is also unparalleled. A large number of leather materials and fur materials are used in the car, and the luxury atmosphere is very prominent. High-end configurations such as bose audio and hud head-up display will also be added together. The rigid body is built, the intelligent safety configuration, and the workmanship materials in the car are all filled together.

It is generally believed that 09 will become a key to break through the 300,000 level.

(4) Kung Fu shooting

Compared with other independent luxury brands, the series of models has embarked on a new path. It has not only the kind materials and rich configuration that far exceed the joint venture brand, but also performs very well in terms of mechanical quality, which makes it always in a favorable position in the competition.

At the same time, the brand is also launching a variety of personalized models to meet the needs of different user groups, which further accelerates its reputation accumulation.

But it has to be said that its success is difficult to replicate. Even if it is now completely "branded", can other independent high-end brands learn from it?
