Sudden! Vanke’s new action

With the profound adjustment of the industry, this process of slimming and keeping fit is just like losing weight, which is very painful and difficult, and its result must lead to a healthier and more quality development direction.

Xu Qian, reporter of China Housing News, reports from Beijing.

Vanke in the "crisis" has attracted attention every move.

On May 13th, Tianyancha information showed that the enterprise status of Shenzhen Wanke Yundi Industrial Co., Ltd. had changed from surviving to cancellation. The two major shareholders of the company are Shenzhen Tengshi Automobile Co., Ltd. and Hengqin Wanke Yundi Business Consulting Partnership, holding 72% and 28% respectively. The former is a subsidiary of BYD, while the latter belongs to Vanke.

According to the data, Shenzhen Wanke Yundi Industrial Co., Ltd. was established on May 26, 2017, and its legal representative is Zhang Yan, with a registered capital of 100 million yuan. Its business scope includes technology development, technology transfer, technical consultation and technical services in the information technology field.

According to relevant reports, Shenzhen Wanke Yundi Industry was originally established for the purpose of cooperation between Vanke and BYD, but the joint venture company was cancelled according to the agreement because the final project could not be obtained. In 2023, the relevant cancellation process was taken, Vanke was responsible for liquidation, and BYD was responsible for handling the formalities.

In other words, at the beginning of the company’s establishment, it represented a "joint effort" between Vanke and BYD, but for various reasons, the two sides failed to follow the set goals and had to "disband". The reporter called Vanke about the cancellation of the company, but as of press time, he did not receive a reply.

Time goes back to 8 years ago. In December 2016, Vanke and BYD signed a strategic cooperation agreement. Based on the cooperation mode of resource sharing, the two parties will jointly explore and develop the "track+property" business. One belongs to the automobile industry, and the other belongs to the real estate industry. It seems that there is no intersection between the two companies, which caused quite a stir at that time.

At the signing ceremony, Wang Chuanfu, chairman of BYD’s board of directors, said that the "cloud track" scheme launched by BYD is dedicated to solving the congestion problem in third-and fourth-tier cities. This kind of rail transit walks over the urban green belt and does not occupy the urban road area. BYD’s green vision is highly coincident with Vanke’s, and the two sides are committed to the long-term strategic cooperation of "track+property".

Vanke said that "track+property" is a very optimistic model for Vanke to solve the problem of ordinary people living, living and working in the future. The signing of this contract combines Vanke’s property development with BYD’s "cloud track" and provides a solution for urban development.

Two months before the cooperation between the two parties, on October 13, 2016, BYD’s "Cloud Track", which took five years to develop, was launched in the world and officially opened to traffic at BYD Pingshan Headquarters in Shenzhen. Wang Chuanfu announced that he has reached cooperation intentions with more than 20 cities. "The rail transit market can’ recreate a BYD’."

The background of this cooperation is that Vanke was busy developing multilateral emerging business and transforming into a supporting service provider in the city. Joining hands with BYD is another emerging business of Vanke after entering many urban supporting services such as apartment leasing, centralized commerce, community commerce, industrial office, logistics, pension and education.

Vanke put forward this idea when it planned to introduce Shenzhen Metro. In June, 2016, Shenzhen Metro and Vanke jointly announced that they planned to innovate cooperation mode in the fourth phase of subway network construction and land development along the line, and participate in the construction of Shenzhen rail transit and superstructure property projects in the mode of "track+property" in accordance with market rules.

Wang Shi, who was then the chairman of Vanke’s board of directors, predicted that the urban population of China will increase by 170 million in the next 10 years, but the main place to accommodate new urban immigrants will be satellite towns, which is located in the developed urban belt. Vanke will seize the opportunity to provide supporting services for the city around the subway, which will be one of the most important development directions of Vanke in the future.

However, this emerging industry, which was valued by Vanke and BYD at the same time and had high hopes, failed to be successfully carried out in more cities and projects. In 2017, the state tightened its policy on urban construction tracks, and only three cities were approved throughout the year; At the end of 2017, BYD Hengyang’s cloud track project was stopped by the National Development and Reform Commission less than a month after it started, and cloud track projects in other cities were forced to suspend.

Two years later, Vanke and BYD cooperated again. On October 8, 2019, Vanke announced that it would jointly invest 1.101 billion yuan with BYD and other companies in a fund focusing on science and technology, logistics and other fields. The scale of fund raising was 1.101 billion yuan, of which Vanke (Chengdu) subscribed for 500 million yuan and BYD auto industry subscribed for 600 million yuan.

Vanke said that the company’s subsidiaries participate in investment funds with their own funds, which is based on the company’s established development strategy. This investment will help accelerate the strategic positioning of the company as a "service provider for urban and rural construction and life".

The background of this cooperation is that in March 2018, Vanke announced in its financial report that it would upgrade its strategic positioning from the previous "urban supporting service provider" to "urban and rural construction and living service provider". Also in 2018, at the autumn regular meeting, Vanke shouted the slogan of "live".

The change of enterprise strategy is also based on the adjustment of the market environment and the company’s operating conditions. Now Vanke is implementing the "slimming" plan-"focusing on the main business", freeing up limited resources, doing well in three main businesses: comprehensive residential development, property services and renting apartments; Resolutely and vigorously promote large-scale asset transactions such as commercial offices, and plan to complete 20 billion yuan each year.

Vanke’s first-quarter financial report shows that in the first quarter, Vanke realized 4.2 billion yuan in bulk asset transactions, of which Shanghai Qibao Vanke Plaza realized 50% equity transactions with a transaction amount of 2.384 billion yuan.

On May 8th, Shenzhen Public Resources Trading Center launched a land transfer information, and publicly transferred the land use right at T208-0053, Shenzhen Bay Super Headquarters Base, with a starting price of 2.235 billion yuan. The owner of this plot is Vanke.

"With the profound adjustment of the industry, this process of slimming and keeping fit is just like losing weight. It is very painful and not easy. Its result must lead to a healthier and more quality development direction, so I believe that the pressure we encounter today is phased. With the support of all sectors of society, including major shareholders, and through our own efforts, I believe that we can achieve initial results in the next two years. " Yu Liang, Chairman of Vanke’s Board of Directors, said at the 2023 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders held on April 30th.

On May 13th, Vanke issued an announcement on the guarantee provided by its holding subsidiary for its application for loans from banks. Among them, Vanke applied for a loan with a principal of 690 million yuan from China Bank Shenzhen Branch for a term of three years. Wuhan Qiuzihu Company, a subsidiary of Vanke Holdings, provided corresponding pledge guarantee for the aforesaid loan with its 100% equity in Changsha Wancheng. Vanke applied to Shenzhen Branch of Agricultural Bank of China for three loans with a total principal of 2.2 billion yuan. Vanke’s three holding subsidiaries provide pledge guarantee for Vanke’s three loans with 100% equity of other project companies.

On May 13th, Vanke’s share price fell by 1.85% to close at 7.42 yuan. On the same day, the prices of several US dollar bonds issued by Vanke rose: among them, the price of bonds due in November 2027 with an interest rate of 3.975% rose by 5.1 cents per US dollar; The price of bonds due in November 2029 with an interest rate of 3.5% rose by 3.7 cents per dollar; The price of bonds due in May 2025 with an interest rate of 3.15% rose by 3.3 cents for every dollar.

Researchers from Chengdu Mountain Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences measured Tianlu to select the route for disaster prevention in sichuan-tibet railway.

  Experts from Chengdu Institute of Mountain Studies, Chinese Academy of Sciences are on the spot. Xinhua News Agency reporter Jin Liwang photo

  Since ancient times, it has been difficult and dangerous to cross mountains and rapids from Sichuan to Tibet. Despite this, the pace of people laying "heavenly roads" has never stopped.

  In 1950, the Sichuan-Tibet Highway started construction. Later, after 19 years of hard construction by 110,000 soldiers and civilians, it was fully completed and opened to traffic in 1969, thus ending the history of entering Tibet from Sichuan only by people and animals.

  Now, in order to make this dangerous road more open, the construction of sichuan-tibet railway has also been put on the agenda and included in the national "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan". At the end of 2014, the Cheng Kang section and Lalin section of sichuan-tibet railway have started construction. At present, the construction of the whole line is being planned.

  How difficult is the most difficult "heavenly road"

  "Eight from eight volts", the cumulative climbing height exceeds 14,000 meters.

  Sichuan-tibet railway starts from Chengdu, Sichuan in the east and reaches Lhasa, Tibet in the west, with a total length of nearly 1,700 kilometers. It includes three sections: Cheng Kang Railway (from Chengdu to Kangding, which is divided into Chengya Railway and Yakang Railway) and Kanglin Railway (Kangding — Linzhi), Lalin Railway (Lhasa — Linzhi). Sichuan-tibet railway is designed to run at a speed of 200km/h (the speed limit is 160km/h). After completion, it takes only 13 hours to get from Lhasa to Chengdu.

  Compared with highways, the construction of railways is more difficult. How to avoid and prevent mountain disasters in railway line selection scientifically and reasonably has become a difficult problem to be overcome at present.

  In 2015, China Academy of Sciences deployed the science and technology service network project "Distribution Law, Risk Analysis and Prevention Experiment Demonstration of Mountain Disasters in sichuan-tibet railway", and the researchers of Chengdu Institute of Mountain Disasters and Environment of Chinese Academy of Sciences (hereinafter referred to as Chengdu Institute of Mountain Disasters of Chinese Academy of Sciences) were entrusted with an important task. "We hope to further develop the discipline innovation chain of mountain disasters from theory to technology to application demonstration, and explore the ‘ Science — Technology — Engineering — User ’ Technology service model. " Wen Anbang, director of Chengdu Mountain Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences, said.

  In fact, the country began to explore sichuan-tibet railway as early as the early days of the founding of New China, and began to select routes in the 1990s. When we chose to build the railway into Tibet, we chose the Qinghai-Tibet, Sichuan-Tibet and Gansu-Tibet routes, but sichuan-tibet railway was temporarily put on hold because it was too difficult to build and the investment cost was too high.

  You Yong is the chief engineer of Chengdu Institute of Mountain Studies, Chinese Academy of Sciences. He admits that this is the most difficult and intractable task he has encountered in his career for decades.

  The construction difficulty of sichuan-tibet railway is rare in the world, and far exceeds that of the already-built Qinghai-Tibet Railway. More than 1,700 kilometers of lines have to go through "eight rises and eight volts", and the cumulative climbing height exceeds 14,000 meters. In the process of construction, builders will face four challenging problems: obvious terrain elevation difference, intense plate activity, frequent mountain disasters and fragile ecological environment. In other words, it is equivalent to building the world’s most technically difficult "giant roller coaster" between the most dangerous and complicated mountain canyons.

  For example, the section from Luding County to kangding city, which is only 50 kilometers, has to climb nearly 2000 meters. "In order to overcome this huge terrain elevation difference and avoid disaster-prone areas, about 80% of the road sections along the line should be built on bridges and tunnels." You Yong further explained that along the sichuan-tibet railway, it also passes through the active earthquake fault zone of the Indian Ocean plate and the Eurasian plate, and faces various complicated geological conditions such as earthquakes, frozen soil, avalanches, geothermal, caves, underground rivers and rockbursts.

  Why are there many mountain disasters?

  It spans 14 major rivers and 21 snow-capped mountains over 4,000 meters.

  After making a preliminary estimate of some difficult problems to be faced in the construction of sichuan-tibet railway, the researchers judged that "frequent mountain disasters" were one of the key factors to determine the success of the construction of sichuan-tibet railway.

  This assertion has also been widely endorsed by the industry. In October 2016, an event called "Solving the Mountain Disaster Problem in sichuan-tibet railway — — ‘ Challenges and Countermeasures of sichuan-tibet railway Construction ’ " The academic exchange meeting was held. When talking about this issue, the eight academicians at the meeting also reached a consensus, that is, "building a railway under such a complicated geological environment will inevitably face a lot of scientific and technical problems, among which mountain disasters will become the key control node of the whole line."

  "This is also the reason why the whole section from Ya ‘an to Linzhi in sichuan-tibet railway has not been started, because the mountain disaster problem faced by this section is the most serious and the construction is the most difficult, and it is still in the pre-feasibility study stage." Chen Xiaoqing, deputy director of Chengdu Mountain Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences, said.

  What the team of experts from Chengdu Mountain Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences has to do is to try to solve the "mountain disaster" problem in this section.

  According to the preliminary route plan, sichuan-tibet railway will cross the Hengduan Mountains, the plateau and alpine valleys in southeastern Tibet, and cross 14 rivers and 21 snow-capped mountains with a height of more than 4,000 meters.

  "According to our statistics, the mountain disasters that may be encountered along the line include landslides, mudslides, water damage, snow damage, ice damage, and sand sliding slopes." You Yong said, "There are only 399 disaster spots where glacial lake burst and ice-water debris flow may occur on the 271-kilometer-long section of Palong Zangbo, sichuan-tibet railway. In the 360-kilometer-long fresh water section, there are 310 mudslides and 241 landslides. "

  Why are mountain disasters so frequent and serious here?

  Kelvin Cui, an academician of China Academy of Sciences and deputy director of Chengdu Mountain Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences, said: "There are three main reasons: First, it spans multiple seismic zones, with active structure, frequent strong earthquakes and strong erosion, and has extremely favorable geological environment conditions for disasters; Second, the terrain with high drop and steep slope in the middle and high mountains provides huge energy conditions for disaster development; Third, due to the influence of monsoon and westerly belt, the climate difference is obvious, which provides favorable climate and water source conditions for disaster development. "

  How to treat the key ills?

  The technical consultation report on mountain disasters across the board is expected to be completed by the end of this year.

  "Before giving the countermeasures, we must find out what is the regional distribution law of mountain disasters such as mudslides and landslides along the sichuan-tibet railway? How much influence do they have on railway engineering? How to scientifically divide the dangerous areas and safe areas of railway mountain disasters? " You Yong said, "In addition, sichuan-tibet railway will cross some places that our researchers have never observed before. Is there a mudslide there? How harmful is it? We don’t have any information in our hands, and we still need to investigate and study. "

  The researchers of Chengdu Institute of Mountainous Areas of Chinese Academy of Sciences first used remote sensing satellites to find out the number and distribution status of collapses, landslides and debris flows along the railway, and then conducted more detailed research and analysis by consulting historical data, field reconnaissance, field sampling, experimental analysis and numerical simulation.

  "Remote sensing images can’t see the internal structure of the slope, so it needs to be combined with field investigation." Li Xiuzhen, an associate researcher at Chengdu Institute of Mountain Studies, Chinese Academy of Sciences, said, "For example, we researchers must use some climbing ‘ Soil method ’ Climb to the top to find some traces that can be distinguished by the naked eye when the previous disasters occurred. According to these traces, we can calculate the scale, flow, impact speed and hazard mode of the disasters at that time. "

  Find out the situation of mountain disasters, what kind of prevention and control countermeasures should be taken?

  Chen Xiaoqing said: "In our researchers’ opinion, if the risk is particularly high, we will take ‘ Avoid ’ The way. If the problem can be solved and the cost can be saved, find a way to ‘ Governance ’ 。”

  For example, Ridigou is a debris flow ditch near kangding city, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province. "The risk assessment of mountain disasters such as debris flow, collapse and landslide in this ditch and its prevention countermeasures are one of the most important prerequisites for determining the route selection of this section of the railway." Liu Jinfeng, an associate researcher at Chengdu Institute of Mountain Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, said.

  According to the previous route plan, a pier was originally set near the center of the Ridigou Railway Bridge. However, after investigation and research, researchers found that the Ridigou railway bridge may be affected by two kinds of collapse and rolling stone disasters. One is that the slope and dangerous rock disturbed by the project near the tunnel entrance may loosen and fall, and the falling rolling stone at a high place may move along the slope, which may cause harm to the railway line.

  "Therefore, we feel that this position takes ‘ Railway arch bridge scheme+gap dam retaining at the upstream of railway bridge+protection and drainage under railway bridge ’ The combination method is more suitable. " You Yong said, "Just like this, we have to find out the countermeasures for mountain disasters along the route. The technical consultation report on mountain disasters across sichuan-tibet railway is expected to be completed by the end of this year." (Reporter Wu Yuehui)

Pinduoduo, Taobao and JD.COM: Fight for low price, roll service and strong technology.

The picture is from Canva.

In recent years, with the progress of technology and the change of consumer habits, the competitive environment of e-commerce industry has become more diverse and dynamic. In order to maintain market competitiveness, major e-commerce platforms need to constantly innovate and adjust their competitive strategies. As a result, under the background that the e-commerce market has matured, major e-commerce platforms have begun to gain competitive advantages by focusing on specific market segments.

Nowadays, the competition in the e-commerce market is rapidly evolving, focusing on several key aspects such as pricing strategy, customer experience and technological innovation. Therefore, as the most important e-commerce platform in China, Taobao, JD.COM and Pinduoduo launched a fierce competition in terms of price, service and AI technology in 2023.

Low price is king.

Price has always been a topic in the development of e-commerce industry. Especially in recent years, after "low price" has gradually changed from consumers’ demands to KPI of e-commerce, the "price wars" on subsidies and support among major e-commerce platforms have emerged one after another, and Taobao, JD.COM and Pinduoduo have also been seriously involved in price issues. In order to compete for the "lowest price of the whole network", these three players have launched their own strategies by virtue of their own advantages.

With the help of traffic distribution mechanism and product operation orientation, Taobao provides consumers with more cost-effective quality goods. As one of the leading e-commerce platforms in China, Taobao can use advanced algorithms to analyze users’ browsing records, purchase history and search habits, so as to give consumers personalized recommendations and help them find products with reasonable prices and meet their needs. In addition, Taobao’s open platform strategy can attract more merchants to settle in, and its evaluation system can also evaluate the reputation of merchants. Therefore, in order to attract consumers and enhance their reputation, merchants will make greater efforts to provide cost-effective products while improving their services.

JD.COM has made use of tens of billions of subsidies and various preferential activities to bring consumers the simplest and most direct low-cost consumption experience. In order to attract and retain more consumers, JD.COM launched a 10 billion subsidy activity in March last year. Not only that, but the subsidy in JD.COM last year was far stronger than before. It is reported that during the JD.COM 618 period, on the basis of the direct drop of commodity prices, users still have the opportunity to receive three "over 200 minus 20" subsidy coupons every day, and all commodities except special commodities can be used. The implementation of these strategies has not only enabled JD.COM to achieve large-scale sales, but also further enhanced its market share.

With its low-cost business model and supply chain advantages, Pinduoduo can further expand its price competitiveness in the minds of consumers. Since the birth of Pinduoduo, it has been to burn money at a low price for the market. Pinduoduo has built a system with price as the core dimension, which is used to screen the dealers of similar products, so as to select the products with the highest cost performance to display and sell at the front desk, thus attracting a large number of price-sensitive users. In addition, Pinduoduo directly connects consumers and manufacturers through C2M mode, which shortens the traditional supply chain. Without middlemen to earn the difference, Pinduoduo’s "lowest price in the whole network" has won the favor of a large number of users in the sinking market.

Service priority

With the development of Internet economy, consumers pay more and more attention to the price factor, but service is also a point that consumers pay special attention to. With Taobao, JD.COM and Pinduoduo playing more and more important roles in the domestic and even global e-commerce industry, they have also sacrificed their own unique styles in the competition of e-commerce services.

Taobao has improved the security system and brought consumers more diverse and convenient shopping choices. In 2023, Taobao paid more attention to consumer rights, so it proposed many service measures to promote the development of the platform. For example, Taobao has established and improved the consumer protection system, launched seven-day unreasonable return service, fake one-compensation third-class service, and also provided a user evaluation system and similar "refund only" return refund service to enhance user loyalty and increase the repurchase rate.

JD.COM has increased its logistics services, providing fast delivery and high-quality after-sales support for its e-commerce business. JD.COM’s service advantage has always been reflected in its self-built logistics system. Therefore, in 2023, JD.COM not only emphasized its fast and reliable logistics service, but also provided fast delivery and high-quality after-sales support. JD.COM’s professional after-sales services, such as quick return and exchange, on-site maintenance, not only ensure consumers’ rights and interests, but also better protect consumers’ rights and interests by introducing the "refund only" service.

Pinduoduo has optimized customer service, lowered the shopping threshold and improved the shopping experience of consumers. As the first e-commerce platform to launch "refund only" service, Pinduoduo attaches great importance to after-sales service. Especially in customer service, Pinduoduo has taken many measures, such as setting up a consumer protection fund to check the quality of goods. At the same time, through the interactive nature of its platform, Pinduoduo encourages users to share shopping experiences on social networks, which indirectly improves the customer service experience.

AI escorting

As the era of "AI+ e-commerce" is accelerating, AI has become an important tool for major e-commerce companies to enhance user experience and ensure ecological prosperity. When the application of AI has gradually become the trend and standard of e-commerce industry, the deep integration of e-commerce and AI technology has also brought new development opportunities to the entire e-commerce industry. Under this background, Taobao, JD.COM and Pinduoduo have also begun to show their own advantages and characteristics in AI technology, AI products, AI services and AI experience.

Taobao upgraded its e-commerce system with AI technology, further improving its operational efficiency and management level. It is reported that Taobao has released a series of AI tools and services, such as AI one-click shop opening, AI updating, AI data analysis, etc., to help businesses achieve more efficient and lower-cost store operation. In addition, Taobao is also testing a large model native AI application "Taobao Ask", aiming to enhance the user’s shopping experience through personalized recommendation. Whether it is Taobao’s vigorously open AI capability or its vigorously cultivated AI ecosystem, it has further strengthened its personalized recommendation capability and optimized its intelligent algorithm.

JD.COM reconstructs intelligent logistics by using AI technology, which effectively improves service quality and user experience. JD.COM also showed no weakness in AI layout. It is reported that only 10 minutes after the launch of double 11, the cumulative consulting service volume of intelligent customer service in jingdong cloud exceeded 1.88 million times. Besides AI intelligent customer service "Beijing Xiao Zhi", JD.COM has also added automated logistics. At present, JD.COM has made remarkable achievements in the fields of intelligent warehousing and unmanned distribution, all of which are realized through the application of AI technology. JD.COM has established an open platform of NeuHub artificial intelligence, which can help merchants build an intelligent supply chain and effectively reduce the cycle of goods from production to delivery.

Pinduoduo has optimized the shopping process by using AI technology, bringing users a more convenient and intelligent shopping experience. The core of Pinduoduo’s market value surpassing Ali is its brand-new business model of "e-commerce +AI". Moreover, Pinduoduo has also made innovations in the "refund only" service by using AI technology. Pinduoduo’s "Refund Only" service allows consumers to apply for a refund without returning goods under certain conditions. The introduction of this policy not only simplifies the after-sales process, but also creates a more convenient and personalized shopping experience for consumers.

Competition "has two sides"

With the progress of technology and the change of market, Taobao, JD.COM and Pinduoduo are constantly exploring and optimizing the price, service quality and AI application, which leads to more and more fierce competition among e-commerce platforms. However, it is undeniable that this competition also has its positive side. Looking at the entire Internet industry, competition among e-commerce platforms is not necessarily a bad thing.

For users, competition can bring more and better goods and services to users, so that the user experience can be significantly improved. The competition among e-commerce platforms is related to the shopping experience and vital interests of consumers. Once the e-commerce platform has the right to speak, the user experience will be more or less poor. Once there is fierce competition between e-commerce platforms, in order to attract and retain users, e-commerce platforms will generally take measures such as optimizing shopping processes, providing personalized recommendations, and enhancing customer service. This can improve the user experience to a certain extent, and it can also effectively prevent users from stepping on the pit.

For merchants, competition can give merchants greater concessions and more support, so that merchants can reduce costs and increase sales. With competition among e-commerce platforms, businesses can get a lot of benefits from it. As we all know, rich product categories and differentiated choices are the focus of consumers’ stay and transformation on e-commerce platforms, and businesses that can meet this requirement have become the key to e-commerce platform competition. In order to attract and retain merchants, e-commerce platforms often provide a series of preferential policies and tools, such as reducing transaction rates, providing data analysis tools, increasing exposure opportunities, etc., to give merchants the greatest concessions and support.

For the platform, competition can force e-commerce platform technology and services to innovate continuously, thus promoting the development of the entire e-commerce industry. With competition among e-commerce platforms, these e-commerce platforms will actively innovate because of the pressure of survival, such as logistics. In the past, many express delivery services were not delivered to the door, but once a platform can deliver goods to the door, other platforms will actively increase or even improve this service in order not to be abandoned by users. Under this kind of competition, it not only improves the operational efficiency of various e-commerce platforms, but also promotes the overall development of e-commerce ecosystem.

Generally speaking, Taobao, JD.COM and Pinduoduo each have their own unique competitive advantages and strategic priorities. They are constantly adjusting and improving in terms of platform innovation, experience enhancement and service optimization to cope with the rapidly changing market environment and consumer demand. I believe that in the future, with the increasingly changing e-commerce environment, these head players will also conduct deeper exploration in more aspects, but now these three platforms will continue to compete more fiercely in the segmentation of e-commerce, and who will continue to be in the leading position in this competition in the end, I am afraid only time can give an answer.

Be wary of consumption traps. Women spend more than 10,000 yuan on emotional counseling and are fooled.

  Yangcheng Evening News reporter Ma Can and correspondent Yue Xiaoxuan reported that mental health consultation has been widely accepted by the society, and with the increasing diversification of business models, online mental health consultation, intimate relationship repair, accompanying and listening have become business opportunities. On August 17th, the Consumer Council of Guangdong Province issued a consumer reminder that in recent years, with the social development and people’s attention to mental health and mental health, the demand for mental health consultation has been increasing, which has driven the rapid development of China’s mental health industry. Relevant data show that at present, there are 130,000 enterprises with psychological counseling in the national business scope. Behind the rapid development of the industry, due to the lack of unified norms, and the lack of defined standards for the effect of mental health services, it is also easy to infringe on consumers’ rights and interests.

  Case: Spending more than 10,000 yuan was also upgraded by the flicker package.

  Recently, Miss Tang complained to the Consumer Council of Guangdong Province that she sought advice through an emotional consulting service company and wanted to save her emotional relationship with her ex-boyfriend. The company’s analysts said it was not difficult to recover, and recommended a two-month emotional private education service, promising professional teachers to provide half an hour of guidance service every day, and online consultation at other time periods, and refundable if they were dissatisfied with the service.

  Miss Tang paid 15,900 yuan for the related service. The next day, a person claimed to be a professional teacher, contacted Miss Tang and provided her with the first consultation service. When Miss Tang offered to consult the next day, the teacher said that she had no time the next day, and the appointment time was one week later. The online chat service teacher often did not reply to the information.

  In addition, shortly after the consultation began, the relevant teachers said that Miss Tang had serious psychological problems and needed to extend the consultation time to induce her to change the higher service package. Miss Tang thinks that the package she bought was recommended by the analyst after pre-evaluation. It is very unreasonable to ask her to continue to pay before completing the course of treatment, and she only provided six services during the three-week treatment, which seriously violated the contract. Miss Tang asked for a refund. According to the consulting company, the related services are knowledge services and cannot be refunded.

  After receiving the complaint, the staff of Guangdong Consumer Council communicated with the emotional consulting company many times, and finally the other party agreed to deduct the fees for attending classes, and the rest was returned after the consumer took 15% responsibility.

  Reminder 1: Understand the credit information of consulting institutions clearly.

  The reporter learned that in 2017, the state cancelled the professional qualification certificate of psychological counselors, which lowered the entry threshold for employees.

  At present, some training certification bodies have different standards and requirements for employees’ skill training books. In this regard, the Consumer Council of Guangdong Province reminds consumers — — In the face of the propaganda of these "professional certificates", we should be vigilant and don’t be credulous.

  The relevant person in charge of the Consumer Council of Guangdong Province said that if it is really necessary to choose socialized psychological counseling service, we should know the credit information of the counseling institution in many ways. We can inquire through government websites or channels such as the enterprise credit information publicity system to find out whether the counseling institution is included in the list of abnormal business operations, the list of serious illegal and untrustworthy enterprises, and whether it has been subject to administrative punishment or litigation due to illegal acts.

  Reminder 2: Avoid paying high service fees at one time.

  Psychological counseling services usually take the form of advance payment. The Consumer Council of Guangdong Province advises consumers to pay consulting fees as much as possible, or clearly stipulate the service content, service quality and refund calculation method through formal contract before payment, "to avoid paying high service fees at one time and reduce the risk of capital loss".

  In addition, after purchasing psychological counseling services, consumers should pay attention to properly preserve payment vouchers, contracts or agreements, leaflets, invoices and other evidence, in case of consumer disputes in the future.

  Reminder 3: Prefer formal channels or public welfare organizations.

  At present, the psychological counseling service market needs to be further standardized. If there are psychological problems, unprofessional counseling will not only play a role, but may also delay the time of receiving formal treatment.

  At present, all major hospitals in Guangdong Province have psychiatry or psychopsychiatry. Doctors are highly qualified and their specialties are guaranteed. Consumers should first choose hospital psychological counseling clinics if necessary. If you don’t want to go to the hospital, you’d better choose the local college of psychology or mental health center. For example, the Guangdong Provincial Health and Wellness Committee published the List of Guangdong Psychological Assistance Public Hotline, including Guangdong Mental Health Center, Guangdong Psychological Crisis Intervention Committee, 12355 Youth Voice, hospitals, universities, social workers and other public psychological assistance channels.

The area of wheat harvested in summer was 346 million mu, an increase of 475,000 mu on the historical high. Second, the yield per unit area has increased. Improving the yield per unit area requires a close combination of improved varieties, fertile fields, good opportunities and good laws, and at the same time, there must be good policies. The minimum purchase price of summer grain wheat has increased this year, which has stabilized farmers’ expectations.

In the first half of the year, the quality and efficiency of central enterprises improved.

The reporter learned from the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council that in the first half of this year, the production and operation of central enterprises made steady progress, with good quality and efficiency, achieving a total profit of 1.4 trillion yuan, up 1.9% year-on-year, and the annualized labor productivity and R&D investment intensity of all employees increased steadily year-on-year. In the next step, the proportion of income and added value of strategic emerging industries of state-owned central enterprises will be further increased.

With the opening of summer vacation, the ever-rising "Wenbo fever" has become a beautiful tourist landscape. Faced with the strong demand for cultural tourism, many museums in China have carried out a series of beneficial explorations in canceling real-name reservation and extending opening hours, and launched a number of special activities to bring visitors a different exhibition experience.

The best age for HPV vaccination is 9 to 14 years old.

  Cervical cancer is one of the common gynecological cancers and one of the few cancers that can be prevented by vaccine. Experts suggest that the incidence of cervical cancer in China tends to be younger, but the women who are willing to vaccinate HPV (human papillomavirus) vaccine are generally older. It is suggested that more attention should be paid to the vaccination of young women.

  Bi Hui, the chief physician of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Peking University First Hospital, found that most of the outpatients who came to consult about HPV vaccination were women over 25 years old, and teenagers aged 13 to 18 only occasionally saw them, and few parents brought their daughters to consult about HPV vaccination.

  Bi Wei said: "In China, bivalent and tetravalent HPV vaccines are currently approved for women aged 9 to 45, and nine-valent HPV vaccines are suitable for women aged 16 to 26. HPV vaccine has the best effect before sexual life, and teenagers should be the key population. The best vaccination age recommended by the World Health Organization is 9 to 14 years old. Our country’s guide recommends 13 to 15 years old as the key population. "

  According to reports, viruses such as HPV are divided into multiple subtypes, which can be classified into high-risk and low-risk types. High-risk type can cause cervical cancer, anal cancer, oropharyngeal cancer, etc. Low-risk type can cause flat wart, common wart and condyloma acuminatum on the skin. The main route of transmission of high-risk HPV is sexual transmission.

  Bi Wei introduced that in recent years, a study of more than 130,000 gynecological outpatients in eight tertiary hospitals across the country showed that the infection rate of high-risk HPV was nearly one-fifth.

  Studies have shown that bivalent and tetravalent HPV vaccines can prevent about 70% of cervical cancer and nine-valent vaccines can prevent about 90% of cervical cancer due to the different number of preventable virus subtypes. Experts emphasize that vaccination can greatly reduce the risk of cervical cancer.

The American government ignores the "American dream" that cracking down on retail theft is taking away hard-working families.

  China Daily Online, September 30th According to a report on the website of the US Capitol Hill newspaper on the 29th, inflation is not the only reason for the rising prices of food and clothing in the United States. Shoplifting incidents that are out of control continue to occur, making the bills that people can’t bear even higher. The U.S. government’s failure to crack down on retail theft is unfair to hard-working American families who are trying to pay for daily necessities and save money for the future, which has caused many obstacles for them to realize their "American dream."

  According to related reports, in 2021 alone, shoplifting in the United States caused nearly $100 billion in losses to retailers, and every American could feel the price. However, federal lawmakers and prosecutors chose to refuse to hold criminals accountable, which made the situation worse.

  Screenshot of the US Capitol Hill website report

  The report pointed out that many police departments in the United States are seriously short of funds and manpower, and the "Defund the police movement" aggravated this trend, which made the police team demoralized and frustrated the recruitment work. This year, due to the "serious" shortage of manpower, the Boston Police Department issued an urgent appeal for recruiting new police for the second time in its history. As expected, the number of police patrolling in a specific area is directly related to the violent crime rate, which makes communities with insufficient police force more vulnerable to theft, shooting and other crimes.

  At the same time, prosecutors in crime-prone areas refused to put people’s safety first. In Washington, D.C., for example, federal prosecutors in the region openly refused to prosecute nearly 70% of people arrested in 2022. Most of the cases he ignored involved gun possession, drug possession and burglary charges. Similarly, the Manhattan district attorney’s office revealed in 2022 that it only accepted two cases against a serial thief, who was a serial pickpocket who committed 23 different thefts.

  The article points out that there is no doubt that crimes in all parts of the United States are in a period of high incidence. In the past three years, property crimes, motor vehicle theft and robbery cases in cities including Washington, D.C. have increased sharply. This uncontrolled crime wave and the coexistence of retail theft at a record high are causing a devastating blow to American retailers.

  Dick’s Sporting Goods lost 23% of its profits in the second quarter due to theft, so families who buy sports necessities for their children at the company may soon see prices soar. Target and Home Depot have suffered similar shoplifting consequences all over the United States.

  Simple and everyday shopping behavior is becoming a thing of the past in America. Due to rampant theft, a grocery store in Washington, D.C. is planning to empty all American national brands from its health and beauty shelves. Shoppers will no longer be able to buy Tide or Colgate, and they will have to show their receipts to employees before leaving the store. Giant’ S) President Ira Kress said: "We hope to continue to serve the community, but we can’t bring great losses or risks to our employees like today."

  Gabriel Nadales, the author of the article and the national director of Our America, said that American politicians are abandoning the American people in this crisis-level store theft. He pointed out that it is high time for members of Congress to re-engage and actively and comprehensively solve this problem by re-examining the budget priorities, providing funds to the police and replacing prosecutors who are unwilling to perform their duties. Lawmakers need to persistently implement policies to encourage the American criminal justice system to protect American citizens dutifully so that they can continue to pursue the American dream.

  In a recent report, USA-Today website quoted John Gerzema, CEO of Harris Polling Company, as saying: "Their organization conducted an online survey of more than 2,000 American adults at the end of August, and the American public who were asked said that they could not realize the American dream like their parents and grandparents, because this dream could not be realized. At the same time, young Americans are facing unprecedented challenges, such as the climate crisis and unprecedented political differences.
