Built in 1993, the Monument to the People’s Heroes was built in memory of the revolutionary martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the liberation of Shanghai since 1840. It has always been a red landmark for citizens and tourists to pay tribute to the martyrs.

At 6:30 in the evening on June 23, the lights came on, and the Bund International Buildings also lit up. On the same day, the People’s Heroes Memorial Tower located at the starting point of the Bund was displayed in front of citizens and tourists with brand new red themed lights.

The three optimistic pillars rising from the ground are like silent monuments, remembering the immortal martyrs who have sacrificed honorably since the Opium War, the May Fourth Movement, and the Liberation War. The original lights of the entire memorial tower were replaced by brand new red wall washer lights, which symbolizes the blood shed by the revolutionary ancestors in order to liberate the cause. From time to time, the tower body also shows the golden laser flashing upwards, looking from a distance as if the flames are dotted, symbolizing A single spark can start a prairie fire. On the pedestal of the memorial tower, in addition to the red wall washer, thousands of point light sources filled the entire wall. The golden point light sources flickered with the wind, like a five-star red flag waving in the wind.

Multi-plan and fully autonomous “rapid rendezvous and docking” Compared with the Shenzhou 11 manned spacecraft and the spacecraft in front of it, a big difference between the Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft is the introduction of the rapid rendezvous and docking of the Tianzhou cargo spacecraft in the manned spacecraft for the first time. The full-phase and fully autonomous rendezvous and docking function of the second cargo spacecraft. It is reported that according to the functional requirement that the rapid rendezvous and docking required by the mission is less than 6.5 hours (according to the official caliber), the 502 Institute of the 5th Academy of Aerospace Science and Technology Group combined with the short-distance rendezvous and docking time setting, and designed multiple sets of plans for the long-distance autonomous rendezvous. , These are fully autonomous programs. Of course, the plan can also be personalized, that is, customize on-demand through the ground, and inform the GNC system before launch, then the system will execute the whole process autonomously. Proximity rendezvous was already a fully autonomous plan at the second step of the “three-step” strategy of China’s manned space project. However, due to the new characteristics of the space station’s multiple interfaces and the backward-facing interface when there is a cargo spacecraft docked, it is a cooperative goal for backward cooperation. The occlusion and other constraints. The third step close rendezvous On the basis of the second step, the docking point rendezvous plan, the original design state and flight mode are modified, and new flight conditions are added-the direct rendezvous plan, relative to the docking point rendezvous plan, the direct rendezvous plan It takes less time and consumes less propellant. Set a point cleverly, saving time and effort This is a point in the space near the space station. It is the soul of the short-range fully autonomous direct rendezvous program. It is the crystallization of the further improvement of my country’s space rendezvous and docking technology and orbiting technology. It is also the third step of the manned space project to achieve rapid rendezvous and docking. shortcut. In order to meet the new requirements of multiple pairs of interfaces and rapid rendezvous and docking for space station operation, the three-step strategy for manned space project 502 of the Fifth Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Group is based on the second step mastering automatic and manual rendezvous and docking and orbiting technologies, and the third step is In the space station phase, a new flight feature point—the midpoint of sight—is added to the rendezvous and docking mission. The mid-point aiming point is the abbreviation of “midway aiming point” for rendezvous and docking. It is the “transfer station” before the rendezvous and docking of manned spacecraft, cargo spacecraft and space station. It is located behind and below the space station. Through this point, it is the most convenient and quick to complete the connection with the space station. The rendezvous and docking of the forward, radial and backward docking interfaces has the characteristics of saving time (time) and labor (propellant consumption). The introduction of the midpoint is a manifestation of the continuous development of my country’s rendezvous and docking technology and the confidence in design and implementation. If the rendezvous and docking is likened to mountain climbing, the rearward anchoring point rendezvous method in the second step of the manned space project requires a rehearsal or rehearsal to climb several times during the formal summit. The previous summit is for the final formal summit. It is time-consuming and labor-intensive to confirm your own status and related guarantee conditions. The mid-point rendezvous method is through the “mid-point”, the match point near the top of the mountain. During the process, you can confirm the target and guarantee conditions, and dynamically adjust the climbing rhythm according to your own status until you reach the top. The time effort can save up to 40%. . Guangzhou Daily·Xinhuacheng reporter: Xiao Huanhuan, correspondent Chai Yue Guangzhou Daily·New Flower City Editor: Cai Lingyue

In this regard, the same very good MG could not sit still. In order to be able to crush this strong competitor, he released this new MG 6Pro non-stop. It is reported that the new car is based on the upgrade of the third-generation MG 6. Compared with the current model, it not only looks more sporty, but also its overall strength has been improved. When they saw the real car, many netizens called out: Lynk & Co. 03 I encountered a hard stubble this time!

From the data chart below, it is not difficult to see that the appearance of the new MG 6Pro is in the same level, and it does have the capital to stand out. The front face of the new car uses this exaggerated and highly recognizable catfish-shaped net, with the fangs decoration on both sides, and the sharp headlights, which creates a great visual impact. In addition, the design of the front enclosure is more radical, combined with its big catfish mouth, so that the overall sporty atmosphere will be stronger. The side of the body is slender and dynamic, and it is worth mentioning that the original factory also provides alloy wheels modified by the Black Samurai. On the whole, the beauty of the new MG 6Pro can definitely crush a lot of competitors. Some netizens can’t help but say: It is not enough to look at the Lynk & Co 03!

At the same time, the interior of the new car is also very interesting. The inlaid LCD central control screen and the full LCD instrument panel not only add a certain technological atmosphere to the car, but it is also very interesting to use. The chicken-leg style gear lever and the color-blocking track seat give people a strong driving desire. In addition, the new car also has some surprising small details, such as the exclusive embroidered LOGO on the seat headrest, bright colored seat belts, and youthful elements.

The last part is about the power of the new car. From the official declaration information, we know that the new MG 6Pro will continue to use this 1.5T turbocharged engine, coupled with a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox, can burst out of 181 horsepower parameters. In general, the brand-new MG 6Pro has advantages whether it is the appearance of the interior or the power control. If the price is right, it will inevitably be the rhythm of the fire, as netizens say. So, the new MG 6Pro or Lynk&Co 03, which one do you prefer?

Upgraded Russian Mi-28NM attack helicopter. Photo: TASS The demonstration of the complex technical features of the Mi-28NM attack helicopter will be one of the most awaited events of MASK-2021. “The Mi-28NM helicopter has undergone many upgrades after being tested on the Syrian battlefield. Engineers have successfully experimented in real combat conditions to present the most powerful version of the ‘iron bird’ in the Russian air force,” said Professor Vadim Kozyulin of the Russian Academy of Military Sciences. . In terms of structure, the cockpit of the Mi-28NM is reinforced more firmly, with an air-conditioning system, with additional protective armor, including a metal front windshield that is resistant to 12 bullets, 7 mm. The cabin has an additional layer of glass that separates the compartment between the two pilots, minimizing the possibility of the main pilot and the pilot pilot dying at the same time from enemy fire. The iron frame of the Mi-28NM is capable of withstanding 20mm anti-aircraft shells. With this design, for the first time, the principle of separating the cockpit between the main pilot and the pilot pilot was applied. In the event of an emergency when the plane is above 100 m above the ground, the crew can parachute to escape when the plane crashes and crashes. The emergency exit system will be activated by the main pilot and the pilot pilot separately. Mi-28NM is equipped with a powerful weapon system and firepower. Photo: TASS According to Dmitry Litovkin, CEO of Independent Military Review, the Mi-28NM is the latest version of the Mi-28N series of helicopters. It is enhanced with many tactical features, especially combat power. The helicopter is equipped with high-precision weapons, has a new control system integrated with artificial intelligence (AI). Mi-28NM is compatible, join the battle formation with helicopters, UAVs and other aircraft on the battlefield. In terms of firepower, the Mi-28NM heavy attack helicopter is equipped with a variety of powerful weapons systems, including new-generation multipurpose missiles and various bombs. The helicopter can attack stationary and moving targets within a radius of 8-10 km. Notably, this improved attack helicopter is also equipped with a suicide drone. Helicopters can enter a predefined combat area and launch one or more drones from the cockpit. Once the target has been identified, the crew will report the data and monitor the kill launch process. Mi-28NM is capable of operating in all weather conditions, can fly in both automatic and manned modes, and is adaptable to all types of terrain. One of the most practical improvements in the Mi-28NM is the crew’s “double control” mode. In the event that the main pilot is injured or killed, the pilot can still control the helicopter. This is a feature that does not appear on other Mi-28N series. Another improvement is that Mi-28NM is equipped with a radar system in the cockpit, capable of scanning around the aircraft, with a scanning angle of up to 90 degrees horizontally and 44 degrees vertically, helping to detect Display and locate multiple targets at the same time.

Mi-28NM is capable of operating in all weather conditions, performing many tasks including armored attack, destruction of low-speed air targets, reconnaissance… This latest version will be released. introduced at the MAKS-2021 Military Show this summer. The performance of the Mi-28NM combat helicopter’s complex skills will be one of the most awaited activities. Mi-28NM combat helicopter. Photo: RBTH The Mi-28NM made its first flight at the end of 2016 and has undergone state tests over the past few years. In June 2019, the Russian Ministry of Defense signed a contract for the supply of 98 aircraft of the Mi-28NM version. The first batch was delivered to the army in 2020. The production of Mi-28NM was also carried out at the Rostvertol plant. “The Mi-28NM helicopter has undergone an upgrade and modification process after the “fire test” in Syria. Engineers have tested the Mi-28NM helicopter in real combat conditions to present to the public a version of the most powerful combat helicopter in the Russian air force,” said Professor Vadim Kozyulin at the Institute of Military Science. Russia said. What’s new in Mi-28NM? The new cabin of the Mi-28NM is protected by armor, including tempered glass in front that can withstand 12.7mm bullets. The armor barrier between the non-crew members also limits the ability to deal consecutive damage to both pilots. This baffle can withstand the impact of 20mm bullets. This is the first time on the Mi-28 helicopter that there is a partition between the two main pilots and the co-pilot. The pilot and copilot emergency exit systems can be activated separately. Mi-28NM has been “fired” in the Syrian battlefield. Photo: RBTH “The Mi-28NM is the latest version of the Mi-28N helicopter. It is enhanced with many capabilities, including mobility. The new helicopter is capable of using high-precision weapons, has a new control system with integrated AI. Mi-28NM can interact with helicopters, UAVs and other aircraft on the battlefield,” said Dmitry Litovkin, Executive Director of Independent Military Review. The “weapon” of the Mi-28NM helicopter also includes kamikaze drones – a type of suicide UAV. “The Mi-28NM can deploy and control one or more suicide UAVs. When hostile objects are detected, the pilots will provide target data and monitor the removal of those targets,” the expert said. The Mi-28NM helicopter can operate in difficult weather conditions, capable of flying in both piloted and automatic modes. One of the key practical changes for the pilot on the Mi-28NM is the dual control mode: in the event of a primary pilot’s injury or death, the co-pilot can continue to control the helicopter. Mi-28N does not have this mode. According to publicly available information, the main difference of the Mi-28NM is that it is equipped with a radar and thermal imaging support system, with the ability to scan around the aircraft instead of a few directions. Mi-28NM has a huge arsenal, including new generation multi-purpose missiles, including those launched beyond the enemy’s air defense identification zone, as well as various types of bombs. The helicopter can attack fixed and moving targets within a radius of 8-10 km.

“However, it is still too early to announce the modernization of the Su-57”, said Major General Vladimir Popov, member of the Expert Council of the movement “Strong Russia”, Honored Military Pilot. launched and added, so far only 3 squadrons are flying this new generation fighter. “Here, we are most likely talking about the completion of the second-stage engines. By the end of the year they are expected to enter series production with characteristics that are true to the standards of the 5th generation aircraft.” “Today, the Su-57 flies on the AL-41F1S for 4+ generation fighters, despite its high maneuverability thanks to thrust vector control, a new engine has been produced for it, went through testing and the certification was practically passed,” Popov said in an interview with PolitExpert. The upgraded version of the Su-57 is most likely just a second-stage engine integration Now the central question regarding when to put the new engine into production is decided. Boris Popov suggests that Minister Manturov is most likely alluding to this when talking about the modernization of the Su-57. Phase two engines have been included in the project, but their creation is being delayed. “It has to do with economic issues at home and abroad, especially when Western rivals have come a long way. But now this period is over. We are completely independent. production, testing new engines and getting ready for mass production,” Major General Popov explained. “Currently in practice, operational experience is being gathered when the characteristics of the aircraft are confirmed,” emphasized Popov. “It’s not the test engineers that prepare the aircraft, but the technical staff who work directly in the unit. This is like another human quality. In this case, some nuances emerge, those New processes are being approved, parts or even systems are changing,” said the honorary pilot. “Two years have passed since these aircraft entered service with Air Force units. There have been a number of minor changes that need to be made to the structure. This is also a type of modernization for the Air Force. for the Su-57”, Major General Vladimir Popov concluded.

Director of the Service of Military-Technical Cooperation of the Russian Federation Alexander Mikheev announced the above information in a press conference held periodically and immediately attracted deep attention from the press. State-owned arms import and export corporation Rosoboronexport did not specify a timeframe for the new helicopter to receive an export license, only revealing that potential customers are looking forward to owning the Ka-52M within a short period of time. earliest time. It is expected that the Ka-52M attack helicopter along with other Russian aircraft models will be presented at the HeliRussia 2021 exhibition, and a preliminary agreement is expected to be signed for the delivery of the Ka-52M. The construction of a new version of the Ka-52 “Crocodile” helicopter became known in 2018, it was developed based on experience in combat conditions in Syria, as well as suggestions from the pilot and technical team. art joined the battle. Major changes on the Ka-52M include that the OES-52 device developed by NPK SPP will be a new electro-optical aiming system, the Ka-52 helicopters are now using the GOES-451 type from Yekaterinburg’s UOMZ. . The OES-52 system is “simulated” after the Safran Strix targeting sensor fitted to the European Eurocopter EC665 Tiger attack helicopter, which is much higher rated than the GOES-451. OES-52 performs the same functions as GOES-451, it has 5 sensors: thermal imaging camera, TV camera, laser rangefinder, laser beam projection for anti-tank missiles, as well as laser tracking . Another advantage of OES-51 is that it weighs only 177 kg compared to 220 kg of GOES-451. In addition, the new generation V006 Rezets active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar developed by St Petersburg-based Zaslon will be integrated into the modernized Ka-52M armed helicopter. A test version of the V006 Rezets radar installed in a Ka-52K was demonstrated at the MAKS Aerospace Show in Zhukovsky near Moscow in 2019. According to the manufacturer, the Rezets radar has a fixed AESA (900 x 300) mm antenna area with 640 transceiver elements, it can detect a group of tanks from 45 km, a railway bridge 100 km away or destroyers from 150 km. In air-to-air mode, the V006 Rezets radar can detect fighter aircraft with a radar reflection area of ​​3 m2 from a distance of up to 50 km and helicopters flying from 20 km. The Rezets radar weighs 130 kg, 10 kg less than the current FH01 produced by Phazotron-NIIR of Moscow, which is cooled by air through a special device mounted on the nose of the helicopter. The armament of the Ka-52 is merged with another attack helicopter, the Mi-28NM, which consists of the Hermes-A long-range missile, the Vikhr-M guided anti-tank missile, as well as the Izdeliye 305 – a cruise missile. program for aircraft with a range of up to 100 km. Russia is very hopeful that after the Ka-52M “lists”, they can resume the supply contract to Egypt, this North African country suspended the deal and changed to buy the US AH-64D Longbow after found the Ka-52 Alligator version unsuitable as soon as it was received in small quantities.

Full exposure of camera parameters The news about the camera parameters of the Samsung Z Fold 3 comes from a well-known blogger @i冰宇宙. The information disclosed includes the specifications of the camera’s internal and external screen front lens and rear three-camera. Among them, the front lens of Samsung Z Fold 3’s external screen is 10MP. It is temporarily unsure whether it is an under-screen camera design, while the front lens of the folding screen part is 16MP. It will use under-screen camera technology for the first time. The revelation blogger’s statement is more consistent. As for the rear camera of the Samsung Z Fold 3, it will be a triple-camera combination of 12MP+12MP+12MP. Compared to the Samsung S21+, it seems to only change the 64MP telephoto to 12MP. However, considering that Samsung is testing a sensor displacement anti-shake technology similar to the iPhone 12 Pro Max, the 12MP telephoto that Samsung Z Fold 3 replaced this time may be related to this, which is to change to a new CIS (CMOS image sensor). Comes with sensor displacement anti-shake function. CPU and GPU clock speed upgrade As for the Samsung Z Fold 3 processor, it is basically confirmed that it will be the Snapdragon processor, rather than the Exynos 2100 or the new Orion chip equipped with AMD GPU, and it may be the Snapdragon 888+ processor rumored to be launched in the second half of the year. The internal model is SM8350-AB. The latest news is that the main frequency speed of the super core is upgraded to 2.96GHz, and the GPU part will be increased to about 900MHz+, or overclocking ISP/DSP/baseband, or even unlocking some blocks. However, this legendary Snapdragon 888+ will not be replaced by TSMC. According to Qualcomm insiders, Samsung’s 5nm process technology will still be used, but how to solve the power consumption problem after the main frequency speed is increased? There is no news yet. Bank Negara will go on sale in August Samsung Z Fold 3 will also use the third-generation UTG ultra-thin glass and COE technology that removes polarizers, which will help reduce the foldable thickness and improve battery efficiency. With the aid of the patented Armor Frame armor frame design and lighter titanium or carbon fiber materials to reduce the weight, supplemented by the 4275 mAh battery with reduced capacity, the weight of the whole machine is reduced to about 260 grams compared with the previous generation. In addition, the machine will also increase the S Pen stylus and add waterproof function, but the specific level of protection is still unknown. Samsung Z Fold 3 will be equipped with a 7.65-inch folding screen, or a new RGB array of OLED folding screen panels, which can bring a more delicate display effect without changing the resolution. As for the 6.23-inch external screen, it is said to support a 90Hz refresh rate, pre-installed with the One UI3.5 system, and it is possible to add dual card functions. At present, Samsung Z Fold 3’s national bank version SM-F9260 has begun firmware testing. It is said that it will have two storage capacity versions of 12GB memory and 256GB/512GB. Mass production will begin in mid-June, and then officially launched in late July. , The National Bank version will meet with us in August.

Today, according to the accepted features of the 6th generation fighter, the aircraft can be piloted with or without a human presence and although today, experts note. Unmanned version of the Su-57. However, the fact is that Russian fighters can be used in unmanned aircraft (UAV) mode and will most likely be controlled by an artificial intelligence system that enhances the fighter type. Level up to generation 5+ or even to generation 5 ++. The Su-57 fighter developed in 2002 was Russia’s first stealth fighter. (Photo: RIA) For information on the use of drones by Russian Su-57 fighters, military analysts said the Su-57 fighter aircraft will be carried inside and outside the cabin. And development of the cockpit device and the control software program has begun. “A rack is also being built to conduct ground testing of the UAV’s interactive system with fighters and between UAVs in real time using a semi-autonomous simulation system. of course, ”said a source in the military industry. It is known that a fifth generation Su-57 fighter aircraft can house more than 10 reconnaissance and attack UAVs, as well as electronic warfare systems. Currently, work related to the testing of these drones is already underway. However, under the control of fighter aircraft systems, Russian designers will likely execute the plan no sooner than 2024-2025. “The devices in the group operation through safe communication channels will interact with the control complex on the fighter aircraft carrying the UAV and between the UAVs together,” the source explained. Earlier, in the context of the completion of the repair and modernization of the Russian heavy aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov, it emerged that the Russian fleet was preparing to equip the deck of this aircraft carrier with a group of engines. Su-57 fighter jet. A carrier-based version of the fifth generation fighter, moreover, the second version could appear in 1.5-2 years. The Russian designers are actually working on developing a carrier-based version of the fifth generation fighter Su-57, while the development stage is not disclosed, however, the appearance. of the possible carrier version of the Su-57 by 2023. To date, there is no official confirmation of this data, however, the Russian fleet is clearly interested in increasing Admiral Kuznetsov’s aircraft carrier’s combat capabilities through the use of technology fighters. high – even a current version of the Su-57 alone enough to defend against an entire group of enemy carrier attacks. The fifth-generation fighter Su-57 is considered Russia’s most high-tech fighter, and although the mass production of this fighter faces some difficulties, its prospects are still very high. By the end of 2020, the first stealth fighter Su-57 in the mass production batch with ID number 01 was staffed for the Southern Military Region and operated at the Novosibirsk base. Sources in the Russian defense industry said that four more Su-57 will be delivered to the Russian Aerospace Forces in 2021. Currently Russia has only one mass-produced variant of the Su-57, although it claims to be able to develop several variants from the original. Russia for the first time promoted a second version, the Su-57E, in March 2019 that could be used for export.

Tesla owners’ rights protection incidents at the Shanghai Auto Show continued to ferment. On the evening of April 21, the General Administration of Market Supervision issued a document stating that it had instructed the market supervision and management departments of Henan Province, Shanghai and other places to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of consumers in accordance with the law. At the same time, it is emphasized that enterprises must earnestly fulfill their main responsibility for quality and safety, and provide consumers with high-quality and safe products and services.

The China Consumers Association issued a response stating that the primary prerequisite for business operations is to respect consumers, and enterprises should implement product quality responsibilities in accordance with the law, and take effective measures to protect consumers’ safety rights. Tesla also spoke again, urging to appoint a third-party testing and appraisal agency to conduct appraisal and restore the truth.

According to the latest news, Tesla has provided relevant data.

At the same time, the China Market Supervision News, which is in charge of the State Administration of Market Supervision and Administration, disclosed the data one minute before the vehicle accident and made a text explanation.

The full text of this text description is as follows:

When the driver stepped on the brake pedal for the last time, the data showed that the speed of the vehicle was 118.5 kilometers per hour. Within 2.7 seconds after the driver stepped on the brake pedal, the maximum brake master cylinder pressure was only 45.9 bar. After that, the driver increased the stepping on the brake pedal, and the brake master cylinder pressure reached 92.7 bar. The front collision warning and automatic emergency braking function were activated (the maximum brake master cylinder pressure reached 140.7bar) and played a role, reducing the amplitude of the collision. 1.8 seconds after the ABS was applied, the system recorded the occurrence of the collision. After the driver stepped on the brake pedal, the vehicle speed continued to decrease, and before the collision, the vehicle speed was reduced to 48.5 kilometers per hour.

Source: China Market Supervision News

In summary, the vehicle is running at a higher speed, and the driver starts to depress the brake pedal with a lighter force. After that, the automatic emergency braking function is activated and has a function, which improves the braking force and reduces the impact of the collision. The driving system is normally involved in the work and reduces the speed of the car.

In addition, with regard to the condition of the vehicle 30 minutes before the accident, Tesla stated this: In the 30 minutes before the accident, the driver drove the vehicle normally and had more than 40 records of depressing the brake pedal. At the same time, the vehicle has repeatedly stopped at more than 100 kilometers per hour and multiple times.

In fact, Tesla, which is caught in the turmoil of rights defense, is also facing pressure to acquire land and expand. Recently, an industrial land mark located in the Lingang Heavy Equipment Industrial Zone of the Shanghai Free Trade Zone, which is adjacent to the Tesla Super Factory in Shanghai, has been interpreted by the market as a new site for Tesla’s expansion.

A reporter from Securities Times·e Company recently visited Tesla’s Shanghai Super Factory. The security in the factory area has been upgraded, and trucks loaded with domestic Tesla have driven out of the factory without interruption. Construction has begun on the suspected landmark plot near the super factory.

“Recent rights protection incidents at the Tesla Auto Show objectively have an impact on the corporate investment image. Even the subsequent expansion and expansion of production, it is necessary to pay attention to the impact of public opinion.” A Shanghai auto industry person told reporters that if It is Tesla who has taken the landmark, indicating that corporate funds and strategies may be under pressure to achieve such goals, or that it has no intention of expanding in the short term. However, it is expected that there will be various land acquisition actions in the future. The rights protection turmoil has not ceased for the time being, and the prospects of the stale land are still unclear. Whether Tesla can continue to stabilize the Chinese market deserves attention.

There are multiple security personnel at the entrance of the factory

A large area of ​​white exterior walls and red arched doors are located in front of the Tesla Super Factory in the Lingang New Area of ​​Shanghai Free Trade Zone. Private cars and employees have entered the factory one after another. The road at the entrance of the factory is empty, and the construction scene of the previous roar of forklifts is no longer visible.

On the afternoon of April 21, a reporter from the Securities Times·e Company saw at the exit of the super factory that many transport vehicles were fully loaded with domestic Tesla and were leaving the factory without interruption. In the open space outside the factory, there are hundreds of new cars that have just left the production line. “The first and second phases of the factory are basically completed, and the production capacity is expanding rapidly. We are now in a three-shift all-weather mode, and people are required 24 hours a day, and we are still hiring people.” A Tesi who came out of the factory Pull employees told reporters. Regarding the current rights protection incident at the Tesla Motor Show, the employee said: “It will definitely affect us, but we don’t have much to say about it.”

The degree of Tesla’s attention is positively correlated with the strict degree of security at the Shanghai Gigafactory. The reporter noticed that two security posts were arranged at the entrances of the first and second phases of the factory. At least 3 staff members wearing red hats and fluorescent green vests are on duty at each entrance. On both sides of the road far away from the door, there are staff from time to time patrolling. Whenever a visitor approaches the factory door, the staff will take the initiative to ask or intercept. “Security will only be stricter during this time.” A security officer said, and told reporters that photographing is prohibited at the entrance of the factory.

In addition, the reporter noticed that there are still cranes under construction near the second phase of the Tesla Gigafactory, and the steel structure on the roof of the plant has been basically completed. “This may be the third phase, or the 2.5 phase, and some workshops will be built to meet production needs.” A worker told reporters.

According to Tesla’s previous EIA information report, the company currently has 4 projects in Shanghai, namely the Tesla Gigafactory Plant Project, the Gigafactory (Phase 1) Phase 1 Project, and the Phase 1-Parts Production Process Improvement Project. , The new model launches the project in advance. Among them, the first phase of the Super Factory (Phase I) project is constructed in phases, divided into two phases, A and B. At present, Phase A has been built and Phase B is under construction.

As the production capacity of Tesla’s Shanghai Gigafactory continues to increase, the delivery of Tesla’s electric vehicles has also increased. According to Tesla’s 2020 financial report, a total of 499,500 vehicles were delivered throughout the year, which is only one step away from the 500,000 vehicles goal set by Tesla CEO Elon Musk. In the financial report, Tesla revealed that the annual production capacity of the Shanghai Super Factory Model 3 is capable of maintaining more than 250,000 vehicles. Model Y production has started at the end of 2020. It is currently in full production and is expected to have an annual production capacity of 200,000 vehicles.

Road construction has begun on suspected land

When the Shanghai Super Factory was operating at full capacity, Tesla reported the news of expanding the factory. In early March of this year, the official website of Shanghai Land Market issued an announcement on the transfer of state-owned construction land use rights, stating that it would sell a piece of industrial land in Lingang Heavy Equipment Industrial Zone with a total area of ​​about 461,000 square meters. The permitted industry type of the plot is the manufacture of new energy vehicles, and it is adjacent to the second phase of Tesla’s Shanghai Gigafactory. It is speculated that it is a new site for Tesla’s expansion.

However, the reporter found that the current transaction status of the plot is “flow mark”. On March 30, the official website of the Shanghai Land Market showed that the industrial land located in the Lingang Heavy Equipment Industrial Zone was not won by the sole bidder. The official website of the Shanghai Land Market did not disclose which car company the bidding applicant was. A reporter from the Securities Times·e Company asked the relevant person in charge of Tesla for verification on this matter, and no response was received as of the time of publication.

On the afternoon of April 21, the reporter went to this industrial land in Nicheng Town, Pudong New District. According to the data, the industrial land extends to the N01-04 plot in the east, Canghai Road in the south, N01-03B plot in the west, and Wanshui Road in the north. The land that is not visible at a glance is still in a barren state, and several bulldozers, road rollers and cranes are working in turn, and the dust is flying. “Here is to build a road. We are already piling here.” A construction worker told reporters. “We had a meeting with people from Tesla, saying that the road was first repaired, and we don’t know what the other land is going to do.” A staff member who came to inspect the construction site told reporters .

“Industrial land itself is not expensive, and the premium rate for general transactions is within 5%, so there are relatively few cases of lost bids or lost auctions.” Yan Yuejin, research director of the Think Tank Center of E-House Research Institute, said in an interview with a reporter from the Securities Times·e Company If there is a failure to bid, it may indicate that the low price is too high, or the company initially intends to acquire land, but because of the low expectations of subsequent input and output, it chooses to give up. “Follow-up may have to make adjustments in land prices and other aspects, especially the need to actively inquire about the willingness of relevant companies to acquire land.” Yan Yuejin said.

Why did the land with a starting price of over 500 million yuan fail the bid?

The reporter consulted the transfer information of the plot, and the seller was the Management Committee of the Lingang New Area of ​​China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone. The total area of ​​the plot is 461142.4 square meters and the period is 50 years. The starting price is 518.79 million yuan, and the price is increased. The margin is 5 million yuan.

“Similar plots are close to Tesla’s existing plant. Logically speaking, Tesla will usually get the land. If other new energy vehicles get land in the surrounding area, it doesn’t seem to make sense.” A person in the auto industry told reporters. It can be understood that Tesla has re-adjusted the mode of strategic expansion in the current special period, in other words, eased the acquisition of land.

From the perspective of industrial land, Yan Yuejin believes that the land needs to meet the requirements of local governments for investment promotion and industrial planning. If similar requirements are not met, land transactions may also face pressure.

One detail that can be paid attention to is that the land project requires a total fixed asset investment of no less than 6.88 billion yuan, an investment intensity of no less than 14,925 yuan per square meter, and a full-scale sales income of no less than 5 years after the land is handed over. 75 billion yuan per year, and the total tax revenue for reaching production is no less than 2 billion yuan per year. With reference to Tesla’s revenue in China in 2020 reaching US$6.662 billion (approximately RMB 43 billion), there is still a gap between its annual sales revenue of 75 billion yuan.

In addition, when building the Shanghai Super Factory, Tesla also disclosed that the company signed a 50-year land lease agreement with the Shanghai local government. If the payment is not made on time, the land must be returned to the Shanghai government. Tesla needs to complete an investment of 14.08 billion yuan (approximately US$2 billion) in the Shanghai factory in the next five years. At the same time, starting from the end of 2023, Tesla’s Shanghai plant must pay 2.23 billion yuan (approximately US$323 million) in taxes each year.

“The flow standard can be seen from two aspects. One is whether the Shanghai government’s policy on Tesla has changed. Two years ago, the conditions given for the introduction of Tesla were very favorable. Tesla’s sales and profit margins in China They are all very good, so if the second land project is given to Tesla, the conditions may not be as favorable as before.” Zhang Xiang, an auto industry analyst, told reporters that, on the other hand, other car companies are not excluded. Want to bid. Due to Tesla’s entry into Lingang, related suppliers have also been attracted to form a new energy automobile industry chain. The industry environment is relatively mature, and other companies participate in bidding, and the price of bids has also risen.

Tesla’s “attack” under the rush of production capacity

Behind the rights protection incidents and the land flow mark, Tesla, which has been advancing all the way, seems to have gradually faded. In July 2018, the official announcement announced that the Tesla Gigafactory, which plans to produce 500,000 pure electric vehicles per year, will be located in the Lingang area of ​​Shanghai.

In January 2019, Tesla’s first overseas factory officially started construction in Shanghai, with a planned production capacity of 250,000 vehicles in the first phase, with a total production capacity of up to 500,000 vehicles, and a total project investment of 50 billion yuan.

With the completion of the Tesla Super Factory in Shanghai, the domestically produced Model 3 and Model Y ushered in a rapid increase in production capacity, and repeated price cuts have also catalyzed the peak sales of Tesla’s domestically produced electric vehicles. In addition, this year, Tesla’s Shanghai Super Charging Pile Factory has been completed and put into production, with an initial planned annual production capacity of 10,000 V3 Super Charging Pile. Tesla’s layout in the Chinese market continues to deepen.

“We produce cars. In the long run, China will become our largest market and the place where we produce the most vehicles and have the most customers.” Musk said frankly in a recent interview with the media. In 2020, Tesla’s revenue in China was US$6.662 billion, a year-on-year increase of 123.6%, accounting for 21% of total revenue. In 2018 and 2019, Tesla’s revenue in China was US$1.757 billion and US$2.979 billion, accounting for 8.19% and 12.12%, respectively.

In terms of sales volume, Tesla delivered 185,000 vehicles worldwide in the first quarter, of which, Tesla sold 69,280 vehicles in China in the first quarter. Judging from the existing sales data, Tesla still occupies the top position of the Chinese market share. In terms of stock price, Tesla went from 80 US dollars in early 2020 to 800 US dollars in early 2021. Its share price has doubled tenfold in one year, and its market value has led global auto companies.

However, the ensuing problem is that Tesla has frequent safety accidents. The “brake failure” rights protection incident at the Shanghai Auto Show is not an isolated case. According to media statistics, since 2020, different media have exposed more than dozens of brake failures and spontaneous charging problems of related car companies’ products, which occurred in Beijing, China. Shanghai, Hangzhou, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Nanchang and many other places. In addition, similar accidents have occurred in Europe and the United States. Musk himself does not shy away from talking about Tesla’s quality problems. He once said that Tesla’s quality will be worse than the stable period during production acceleration, and it will be difficult to achieve perfection if the output is to rise linearly.

“The Tesla auto show rights protection incident reflects Tesla’s quality control problems in a larger sense. The brake failure is directly related to its autopilot system, which involves the car’s hardware and software. There is a trial for new things. The process of error, for Tesla, is that it did not try out all the errors of the autopilot system and hurried mass production and commercialization. The mistakes made in the development of a technological product may be tolerated, but the mistakes made in the development of automotive products This kind of error can lead to traffic accidents and even loss of life.” An auto industry analyst told reporters.

The domestic new energy vehicle market is expected to flourish

When Tesla is plagued by negative public opinion, it is also facing heavy grips from new car manufacturers, luxury car brands and even intelligent solution suppliers.

Take this year’s Shanghai Auto Show as an example, players from all walks of life will firmly occupy the outlets of new energy vehicles. BYD released the new e-platform 3.0, a pure electric car codenamed EA1 and the X Dream concept car; Geely Automobile exhibited the luxury safari pure electric coupe Krypton001; SAIC Motor launched high-end intelligent pure electric vehicles Zhiji L7, LS, etc. Among the newly unveiled electric models, the battery life of more than 400km has become standard, and some high-end electric vehicles can reach a range of more than 600km, and the electric performance such as fast charging and acceleration has also continued to evolve.

New car manufacturers such as Xiaopeng and Weilai brought new models to their debut. Overseas brands also released SUV models taking into account the preference and demand of the Chinese market. In addition to the release of new vehicles by automakers, intelligent solution providers such as Huawei and Baidu have brought related software and hardware products such as autonomous driving and intelligent electric vehicles. The arena of the new energy vehicle market is more diverse.

The sales data in March this year showed that the new forces in domestic car-making have picked up. Huabao Securities analysis pointed out that Weilai Automobile delivered 7,257 new cars in March, and its sales performance was relatively stable when orders continued to be fully produced, with a month-on-month increase of 30.1%; Xiaopeng and Ideal both returned to growth in March. The month-on-month growth both exceeded 100%. Although this year’s electric layout of traditional car companies and Tesla’s price cut competition, new car manufacturers still remain sufficiently competitive. In addition, the giants of traditional car companies have also accelerated their deployment in the field of new energy. The market is expected to form a diversified development trend of new car manufacturers and traditional car companies.

“There are more and more new models built by the same industry, and Tesla may be threatened.” Zhang Xiang, an automotive analyst, told reporters for example. Many years ago, Tesla could run 400 kilometers on a single charge, while other domestic cars could only run. 100 kilometers, but now, some new car-building forces can run more than 700 kilometers on a single charge, which has exceeded Tesla’s cruising range. “When competing with peers, Tesla has shown fewer and fewer advantages. This is a challenge to Tesla.”

[Reporter’s Observation]Will Tesla’s development strategy in China change?

The haze of the rights protection storm has not dissipated, and Tesla has other problems that need to be answered. In Tesla’s in-depth deployment of the Chinese market, and when lowering prices and increasing volume, other electric vehicle brands have different development strategies, and the momentum cannot be underestimated.

The CITIC Securities Research Report pointed out that the “individualized” design and positioning trend of self-owned brand new cars is clear. It is expected that the core competitiveness of auto companies will shift from “cost control” to precise positioning and precise marketing in the future. New car-making forces are expected to seize the opportunity and gain a higher share in the wave of “intelligence” of electric vehicles, relying on faster response and more accurate market understanding. The electrification transformation of joint ventures/overseas brands will further provide new supply for the domestic new energy vehicle market and open up the industry space.

In addition, on the one hand, intelligent solution providers can help automakers optimize the driving experience of their products through technologies such as autonomous driving and smart cockpits; on the other hand, they can penetrate into electric components such as electric drives, thermal management, and BMS, and improve through digitalization. Efficiency and cost reduction will help automakers build “good cars.”

“At that time, the introduction of Tesla played an important role in driving all aspects of the domestic new energy automobile industry chain. In the long run, we support the development of advanced technologies and enterprises with demonstration effects in the country. In the short term, the enterprises have inappropriate Cui Dongshu, secretary-general of the National Travel Association, said in an interview with a reporter from Securities Times and e Company.

More than two years ago, Shanghai introduced Tesla, and the Tesla Shanghai Super Factory was built, completed and mass-produced domestic Tesla cars at an unprecedented speed. Two years later, the new energy vehicle market is already unique, but Tesla “stalls” due to multiple quality and safety accidents. Will Tesla, which is eager to occupy the Chinese market, change its development strategy in China?

“As the world’s largest automobile market and one of the countries with the fastest penetration of new energy in the world, China should be a strategic market for Tesla. Tesla needs to continue to increase its efforts in the Chinese market. Tesla’s challenge lies in China’s domestic market. The rise of new power brands and the dimensionality reduction attacks of potential competitors, such as the addition of smart players such as Apple and Xiaomi, will pose a greater threat to Tesla.” Liu Kun, China partner of Reese Strategic Positioning Consulting, told reporters that Musk’s The strategic intent is to subvert fuel vehicles, so Tesla will continue to expand the mass price market. This also brings another problem. Downward extension will dilute and obscure Tesla’s high-end perception, and Tesla may no longer represent high-end For electric vehicles, the high-end market also has a strategic opportunity to establish another purer high-end electric vehicle brand.

Time is changing, the conflict of rights protection has not ceased for the time being, and the prospect of stale land is unknown. Can Tesla continue to stabilize the Chinese market? Will Tesla’s expansion in China be delayed, and whose land will be sold to the market? Securities Times·e company reporters will continue to pay attention.
