The sales of its own high-end drinking water are not good. In order to "save the country by the curve", Nongfu Spring purchased a water source land in New Zealand. I didn’t expect that as soon as it was excavated, it encountered widespread resistance from the public. In fact, Nongfu Spring is not the only Chinese company targeting the water source in New Zealand. With the "joint efforts" of these companies, New Zealand is in danger of being "hollowed out".

01. Thousands of people "boycotted" Nongfu Spring

On Sunday, residents of the northern New Zealand city of Tauranga held a protest against "foreign-owned enterprises" collecting and bottling water in the local area. People placed more than 2,000 waste plastic bottles on Mt Maunganui Beach and pulled out various banners. The scene was quite spectacular.

Protesters said the campaign was aimed at a series of water extraction operations in New Zealand carried out by Cresswell NZ (hereinafter referred to as: Creswell), a factory owned by the Chinese company Nongfu Spring.

Heidi Hughes, a spokesperson for the protest group, said, "We just wanted to show it to everyone, 2,000 bottles, which is the number of bottles produced per minute at Cresswell’s new Otakiri factory."

However, Cresswell, a subsidiary of Nongfu Spring, immediately denied the claim. Food Jun noticed that Michael Gleissner, managing director of Cresswell, said in an interview with foreign media that the figure was "very exaggerated because the factory does not operate 24 hours a day."

According to public information, in October 2016, Creswell, a wholly-owned New Zealand company owned by Nongfu Spring, was registered; in June last year, Creswell officially purchased the "Otakiri Springs" bottled water factory near Wakatani, North Island, New Zealand. The company’s water source is taken from deep underground, and its products include gas-containing and non-gas, and are available in glass bottles and PET packaging specifications. According to Otakiri’s official website, both gas-containing and non-gas-containing 300ml bottled drinking water are priced at 3 New Zealand dollars (equivalent to about 13 yuan).

At the same time, the New Zealand government approved Cresswell’s expansion plans. Cresswell reportedly plans to build two more bottling plants in nearby Murupara, and hopes to increase groundwater extraction from 2 million litres per year to 580 million litres per year, a 290-fold increase in capacity; to this end, the company intends to buy and lease 6.2 hectares of land in Otakiri.

According to a New Zealand media report, "China’s bottled water giant has been approved by the government to purchase the Bay of Plenty, and the annual extraction capacity exceeds 1 billion liters of drinking water, most of which will be exported to China." According to the data released by foreign media, Creswell’s production capacity will increase by an astonishing 500 times.

Cresswell’s expansion plan will also add extra freight trucks to the area, adding to the pressure on local traffic. "Cresswell’s materials indicate that the plant will have 200 trucking trips a day, which translates to one truck and trailer passing by every three minutes," said Heidi Hughes. "We’re really crowded here already."

More worrying for the local population is the "low-cost plundering" of New Zealand’s water resources by Chinese companies.

Under New Zealand law, freshwater that flows naturally is considered a public good, and "no one has ownership of the water", so water is free. Household water only needs to pay for the maintenance of water pipelines; commercial water such as agriculture and horticulture needs to apply to regional councils for resource permits and pay a nominal fee. Water is usually extracted in daily or annual rations, with flow caps attached.

It is worth noting that because New Zealand’s water is a public good, it doesn’t cost money to pump it into mineral water and export it to other countries.

The latest poll by New Zealand research agency Newshub-ReidResearch shows that 87% of New Zealanders are unhappy that exporters get water almost free and then export it abroad for a large profit.

In the face of various "doubts", the official of Nongfu Spring insists that the exploitation of local water resources is reasonable.

"There is an error in the description of the amount of extraction in the above foreign media reports. The total amount applied by Nongfu Spring does not exceed 1.10 million tons per year. The local groundwater resources are abundant, and 35% of the total amount can be used for water extraction; while the maximum amount applied by Nongfu Spring only accounts for 4.9% of this 35%, which will not affect the local groundwater. This amount of extraction is a normal and reasonable amount for a large-scale bottled water production plant, and it can completely maintain sustainable development." Zhou Li, secretary of the board of directors of Nongfu Spring joint stock company, told Food Jun.

02. High-end is not conducive to overseas "learning from experience"

In recent years, Nongfu Spring, China’s largest producer of bottled water, has targeted the New Zealand market. The New Zealand government has also "welcomed Nongfu Spring". For example, the New Zealand Trade Development Agency has provided significant assistance to China’s Nongfu Spring Company to enter the New Zealand market.

In August 2015, after receiving the invitation of the New Zealand Trade Development Bureau, the senior management of Nongfu Spring officially went to New Zealand. What attracted the attention of the outside world was that Zhong Shanxuan, the head of Nongfu Spring, also came to New Zealand, which was enough to prove the attractiveness of the New Zealand market to Nongfu Spring. The Otakiri Springs bottled water factory was favored by Nongfu Spring’s senior management at that time, and the Nongfu Spring delegation even took samples of bottled water produced locally and brought them back to China.

In April 2016, during a visit to China, New Zealand Prime Minister John Key met with 10 Chinese entrepreneurs in Shanghai, among whom Zhong was one, and the two discussed Nongfu Spring’s investment in New Zealand.

Documents released under the Official Information Act show that officials at the trade development agency are not only nominally supportive of Nongfu Spring, but also involved in many specific processes. Under the arrangement of the trade development agency, the New Zealand authorities approached Nongfu Spring and listed suitable water plants for acquisition. In total, the trade development agency has offered Nongfu Spring five potential acquisition targets. Two of them are ready-made bottled water plants, and the remaining three are also promising.

Nowadays, when consumers buy a car, safety configuration is one of the most important considerations, so whether active/passive safety configuration is rich or not will directly affect its popularity. As a medium-sized suv, there are many highlights. Not much to say, let’s take a look.

Let’s take a look at the appearance of the Tiggo 8. The front of the Tiggo 8 adopts a very sharp design and is equipped with a dot matrix mesh, which looks more fashionable. The headlight is very delicate, which is the finishing touch on the front face. The car is equipped with LED daytime running lights, delayed shutdown and so on. Coming to the side of the car body, the size of the car body is 4700 mm * 1860 mm * 1746 mm. The car adopts round and lovely lines, and the side circumference looks very simple. With large-sized thick-walled tires, it gives people a very solid feeling. In the rear part, the overall shape of the rear echoes the front of the car, and the taillight style is more delicate. The exhaust pipe below adopts the design of bilateral single row, which is very fashionable.

Sitting in the car, the interior of Tiggo 8 looks very simple, which makes people feel very simple and fashionable. The steering wheel of the car is very simple in shape, equipped with functions such as manual steering wheel up and down+front and rear adjustment, and it feels good. Take a look at the central control, with the 10.25-inch touch-sensitive LCD central control screen, which makes the interior style impressive and meets the aesthetic standards of most consumers. The interior feels good. Let’s take a look at the dashboard and seats. The dashboard design is remarkable and the display effect is excellent. The car adopts imitation leather seats, and the seats are wrapped in place, which further improves the comfort of drivers and passengers.

Tiggo 8 is matched with a wet dual clutch (DCT) gearbox, with a maximum power of 115KW and a maximum torque of 230N.m, and its power performance is good.

The car is equipped with driving mode selection, remote control key, rear wiper, traction control (ASR/TCS, etc.), CarPlay support, CarLife support and other configurations, and the configuration performance is relatively good, which improves the convenience of drivers to some extent.

Many people buy SUVs because of their stronger passability. The car is practical and fully equipped, and it is a good helper for home travel. Xiao Bian suggests that your heart is not as good as action, so go to the 4S shop to talk about the discount.

　　[Autohome original test drive] Powerful combination, this is everyone’s favorite scene to see, because there will definitely be a wonderful show next. If the protagonists of the powerful combination are Changan Automobile, Huawei and Ningde Times, it will be a bursting heavenly group. It can be imagined that everyone will be looking forward to what this combination can come up with, and everyone’s attention will be attracted all of a sudden. Could it be too high-profile? Don’t worry, the strong alliance is for this effect of attracting the wind, otherwise how would you notice their first work, this (|).

　　Let’s briefly introduce the background first, Avita, which is a new car company jointly built by Changan, Huawei and Ningde Times, and Avita 11 is the first model of the Avita brand. Although it is a brand new brand, the background is too fierce, it sounds like a big gathering of science students, and it is also a top science student. It has all the mathematics and physics, and it seems that it can get high marks as soon as it is shot.

　　Avita 11 is positioned as a pure electric coupe SUV. The new car is based on the CHN platform. This platform is very easy to understand. In fact, it is the initials of Changan, Huawei and Ningde Times, which means that everyone has contributed. What is more advantageous is that a variety of models can be developed on the same platform. Avita 11 was officially launched on August 8th. In addition to a limited special edition, the new car currently launched a total of 3 car models, priced 34.99-40 9,900 yuan.

　　The next question that many people immediately asked: Where should I go to see this car? The first Avita Experience Center has just opened, in Chongqing, and you can see Avita Experience Center in the top ten cities in the country. The manufacturer’s goal is to open 110. In fact, in terms of retail network, there is basically no need to worry, because Changan and Huawei are among the three giants, and all kinds of avant-garde or traditional experience elements can be played for you.

　　There is another important thing to explain, we have touched the test car, but this is a test car, and it is still a relatively early test car. Last time we have simply driven this batch of cars in the factory’s venue (video below), the large screen of this car and most of the driver assistance systems cannot be experienced, because these functions are not available on it. In addition, in some configurations, the final production car will be adjusted, that is, it will be a little different from the test car we saw today. So next we mainly look at the design, experience the space, and drive the car on the road to briefly feel its dynamic performance.

More exciting videos are available on the Autohome video platform

　　Avita 11 has a very unique design language. In short, you will remember it after seeing it for the first time. The entire silhouette is more like a sculpture.

　　The simple front face design is memorable, and the front face structure outlined by LED light sources looks very sporty. The new split-type headlight group is a popular design element at the moment. The front face of the new car is outlined only by lines, without using too much decoration.

　　From the side, the new car creates a very sporty design style through smooth lines, and the double waist line design and the raised waist line at the tail add a bit of muscle feel. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4880/1970/1601mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2975mm.

　　Not surprisingly, the body of this Avita 11 is arranged with a bunch of sensors, specifically 3 lidar, 6 millimeter wave radar, 13 high definition cameras, 12 ultrasonic radar, a total of 34, the most conspicuous is 3 lidar, the whole layout does not look abrupt, but adds a little technological flavor, the design is quite delicate, in short, this bunch of sensors does not make the whole shape of Avita 11 become riddled with holes.

　　The unique slip-back design features a vertical rear windshield, as well as a rear mechanical lift spoiler. The popular through taillight set also appears on the new car.

　　When it comes to charging, the Ningde era of the three giants should make efforts. First of all, Avita 11 currently has 90kWh and 116kWh capacity battery packs, using ternary lithium batteries, of which 116kWh battery pack energy density is as high as 190Wh/kg. The most lethal is that the first high-voltage ternary system 2.2C fast charging battery in China is the Avita 11, with a charging voltage range of 400V~ 750V.

　　In addition, Avita will jointly build a high-voltage fast charging network with energy company BP. At that time, the power of this high-voltage fast charging network can reach 480kW in a single station, the maximum power of a single gun can reach 240kW, and the battery life can be 200 kilometers in 10 minutes. This network will cover 19 cities in the future, with more than 100 total stations. This is also a great experience. We will definitely bring you the experience as soon as the fast charging network is launched.

　　The wheel design is not particularly personalized, but the momentum is definitely enough, because the size is quite large, the entry model is already 21-inch wheels to start, our test car is still in the trial installation stage, so it is equipped with the top model above the 22-inch wheels, the actual production car should be equipped with 21-inch wheels. In terms of tires, it is equipped with Continental PremiumContact 6 tires, the tire size is 265/40 R22, this tire positioning is not low, it has low rolling resistance and excellent comfort and other characteristics, and it also helps a lot in improving the level of corner control. In addition, the manufacturer introduced this tire to optimize the braking distance in a particularly targeted manner.

The biggest dark horse in the 618 air conditioner market this year should be Xiaomi air conditioner, especially its star model giant power saving series, which sold out directly, sold 100,000 + units in a week, and topped the chart JD.com 1.5-horse first-class energy efficiency air conditioner sales ranking TOP1, cumulatively sold 1 million + units!

Xiaomi, which was once regarded as a "layman" by Gree, now ranks fourth in sales in the air-conditioning industry and third in sales. This achievement has stunned many air-conditioning brands, even the leading brand in the air-conditioning industry, Gree Midea, is willing to bow down!

So is the Xiaomi air conditioner worth buying? As a user who has been using Xiaomi air conditioners for more than a year, I would like to share my experience here. How is the quality of Xiaomi air conditioners? To provide you with some reference opinions.

1. Xiaomi 1.5-horse air conditioner hanging up huge power saving N1A1 use experience

There are many complaints on the Internet that Xiaomi air conditioners are OEM of Changhong, and the quality is not good, etc., but in fact Changhong’s own air conditioners are of good quality, but the sales volume is not as good as those of Glimei. (Personally feel that Changhong OEM is better than the previous TCL OEM quality)

And compared to Changhong’s own air conditioner, Xiaomi air conditioner is not just as simple as changing the logo, but also can use Mijia and Xiao Ai classmates, which is especially friendly for people with Xiaomi family buckets at home.

In terms of appearance design, Xiaomi air conditioner giant power saving N1A1 adopts a simple and fashionable appearance, and its unique shape and color scheme not only make the air conditioner itself a kind of decoration, but also improve the beauty of the whole home.

In terms of performance, Xiaomi air conditioner giant power saving N1A1 also performs well. Using full DC frequency conversion technology, 30 seconds of cooling and 60 seconds of rapid heating, whether it is cooling or heating, it can reach the set temperature in a short time, and maintain a stable operating state, greatly improving the user experience.The power saving effect is also very obvious. It took about 2 kWh to turn on for 9 hours.…

In terms of hardware parameters, it is also on par with or even beyond the models of big brands such as Gree, such as the energy efficiency ratio APF of 5.27, the circulating air volume of 680m 3/h, and the high temperature cooling and low temperature quick heating function at -32 ° C to 60 ° C. Basically, it has all the functions it should have.

In terms of actual experience, the cooling and heating effect is no different from other brands, but the noise is relatively loud when it is first turned on, but it is within the acceptable range.

In addition, the detailed design of Xiaomi air conditioner is also more intimate, such as the dual control function of temperature and humidity, as well as the one-button anti-direct blowing function and the top-mounted filter design, which can be used with other functional modules of Xiaomi air conditioner, making it very practical.

Of course, the most attractive thing is the price. In the past, a 1.5-horse air conditioner cost more than 2,000, but now the Xiaomi N1A1 only needs it.1799 yuan.It is hundreds cheaper than when I first started, and various discounts can be superimposed. Some lucky friends will eventually get unexpected discounts.

Second, the experience of using Xiaomi cabinet air conditioners

For the choice of living room air conditioner cabinet, the price advantage of Xiaomi’s giant power-saving 3-horse model is very prominent, about 4,500 yuan. The round design looks elegant, and it looks good in the corner of the living room.

The AFP value is 4.45, which is better than the national standard. The combination of a strong circulating air volume of 1200m 3/h and a large cross-flow fan allows for rapid cooling and long air supply distance in summer.

In terms of intelligent functions, Xiaomi air conditioner cabinets also perform well. It supports Mijia APP remote control, and users can adjust temperature, humidity and other parameters at 0.5 ° C anytime, anywhere to achieve precise control. At the same time, the independent dehumidification function is still more practical in the southern region.

Overall, Xiaomi’s three-horse vertical cabinet air conditioner is very resistant in terms of appearance, intelligent linkage, configuration, and price. After using it for more than a year, I feel satisfied in all aspects and deserve this price.

summary

Is it recommended to buy Xiaomi air conditioners? Overall, I personally think Xiaomi air conditioners are still very cost-effective. It not only performs well in terms of design, performance, quality, etc., but also has an intelligent operating system and energy-saving technology, making it more convenient and comfortable to use.

In addition, there are also big V reviews on the Internet, and the comprehensive score of Xiaomi air conditioner is still good, which also proves that the quality control of Xiaomi air conditioner is much better than before.

If you are considering buying a new air conditioner and seeking cost-effectiveness, Xiaomi Air Conditioning is a worthy option.

　　On February 1, Zheng Junkang, the secretary of the Liuzhou Municipal Party Committee of Guangxi, "angrily scolded" the city’s transportation bureau for not managing the taxi chaos, triggering a heated debate across the country. Ten days later, the secretary said again, asking the public security to take action to rectify the taxi, strictly investigating the monopoly and "black" situation. Half a month has passed, how about the rectification of the taxi chaos in Liuzhou City?　　

　　On February 13, people took a taxi in front of the Liuzhou bus terminal.

　　The secretary angrily scolded the transportation bureau: it is not good to manage the rental and take down the entire team

　　Previously, in Liuzhou railway station, airport and other places, taxi drivers did not set meters, sat on the ground to raise prices, refused to carry passengers, "picking and choosing", and pooling passengers to charge indiscriminately. This series of chaos has often been reported in the newspapers and has been criticized by citizens and tourists.

　　On the 1st, Zheng Junkang, secretary of the Communist Party of China’s Liuzhou Municipal Party Committee, put down his harsh words against the taxi chaos. He ordered the city’s transportation department to manage the taxi chaos within two months, otherwise it will be held accountable. He said: "The relevant departments can’t control this phenomenon, right? If you don’t manage it well, you will be dealt with by the entire team. If you don’t dare to control it, you will send someone who dares to control it."

　　After being named, the Liuzhou Municipal Transportation Bureau said it would use the most severe measures to rectify "chaos". The Liuzhou Municipal Transportation Bureau studied and formulated the "Liuzhou Taxi Car" Chaos "special project centralized rectification action plan", and carried out arrangements for taxi rectification actions. The city’s comprehensive traffic law enforcement detachment increased the intensity of road law enforcement and invested in unannounced visits to investigate and deal with taxis who were reported and complained. After filing a case, the reward was 200 yuan for **** people.

　　On the 13th, taxis in front of Liuzhou Railway Station entered the waiting point in an orderly manner to wait for passengers.

　　Unannounced visit: How is the taxi chaos rectified?

　　After a series of rectification for half a month, how is the current taxi chaos in Liuzhou? On the 13th, the reporter visited the Liuzhou Railway Station, Bus Terminal, South Bus Station, Airport and other problem-prone areas.

　　On February 13, people in Liuzhou Railway Station queued up in an orderly manner to take a taxi.

　　A warning sign was set up on the side of the road near the railway station, prohibiting taxis from parking and picking up passengers at will, and all taxis were only allowed to wait for passengers at the specified location… I saw a long queue of passengers in an orderly manner in front of the taxi waiting point at the railway station, and the staff of the Comprehensive Traffic Law Enforcement Detachment commanded here to help passengers stop cars and supervise taxis to regulate passengers. There were also taxi reporting and complaint phone warning signs on the scene, and it was difficult to see traces of "starting prices on the ground", "refusing to load" and "pooling".

　　On February 13, in front of the railway station in Liuzhou City, a prompt was set up to prohibit cruise taxis from picking up and dropping off passengers.

　　That night, when a passenger asked to put his luggage in a seat after taking a taxi, the taxi driver refused. At the scene, the staff of the Liuzhou Traffic Comprehensive Law Enforcement Detachment stepped forward to coordinate. The staff member said: "From 7:00 to 24:00 every day, there are additional law enforcement officers on duty to strengthen the management of taxi operation order."

　　At the South Bus Station, many passengers were able to reach taxis on the road in front of the station, and some taxi drivers got off to help passengers carry their luggage and place it in the trunk.

　　There are complaint telephone warning signs set up in the taxi and other passenger areas of Liuzhou Railway Station.

　　Although taxi chaos has been regulated to a certain extent, there are still "picking passengers" and "refusing to take them" in some areas. At the exit of the Liuzhou bus terminal, several taxis were waiting for passengers in the taxi passenger waiting area. At this time, Ms. Zeng came to take a taxi with a 26-inch suitcase and several boxes of apples, but was rejected. Ms. Zeng said that she was going to Liunan, but was rejected by a driver on the grounds that the road was a one-way street. Unfortunately, because Ms. Zeng had too much luggage, she could not carry things across the road to take a taxi by herself, so she had to wait in place for her family to pick her up.

　　Shortly after, another group of two adults and three children were about to take a taxi here, but the driver forcibly carpooled and asked them to wait for other passengers to leave. The passenger believed that there were already five people in the group who were unwilling to carpool and left to find a car.

　　In addition to the designated area, across the road from the bus terminal, the reporter observed that there were also many passengers waiting for a taxi, and most of the taxis were metered. The reporter randomly took a taxi to a destination one kilometer away. The driver did not think the distance was too close or shared a car, but went directly by metered.

　　Taxi passenger waiting area in front of Liuzhou Bus Terminal on February 13.

　　Strictly investigate monopolies and "black" situations

　　Previously, many people responded that taxis at Liuzhou Airport never used a meter, and the fare was one price. And taxis reported that Liuzhou Airport only allowed a small number of taxis who paid the fare to pick up passengers in the designated area in front of the terminal building, resulting in this situation. To this end, the Liuzhou Municipal Development and Reform Commission Discipline Inspection Team in the city and the Municipal Price Bureau launched an investigation and handling. After investigation, Liuzhou Airport, on the grounds of anti-terrorism, controlled a certain number of taxis to pick up passengers in the front area of the terminal building, charging 200 yuan per month. Only 50 taxis registered at Liuzhou Airport were allowed to undertake passenger transportation business at the airport, and other taxis could not enter the front area of the terminal to wait for passengers.

　　The practice of Liuzhou Airport restricts and excludes competition, resulting in taxis that have not been registered at Liuzhou Airport carrying passengers from the urban area to the airport after unloading passengers cannot enter the terminal to carry passengers. Unregistered taxis have the phenomenon of emptying the return journey. In order to make up for the loss caused by the return journey, taxi drivers charge passengers in the direction of the airport without meters.

　　On February 3, Liuzhou Price Bureau issued a "Notice of Order to Correct" to Liuzhou Airport, requiring Liuzhou Airport to correct immediately from the date of receipt of the notice. On February 4, Liuzhou Airport cancelled airport taxi parking fees and cancelled airport taxi filing limits.

　　At the same time, the Liuzhou Public Security Bureau has launched a month-long centralized rectification operation to comprehensively strengthen the rectification of taxi chaos and vigorously promote the rectification of five cars. If the evil forces involving taxis and "five cars" are found in the rectification operation, the public security organs will implement "zero tolerance" to crack down on them.

　　On February 13, staff of Liuzhou Transportation Comprehensive Administrative Law Enforcement Team guided passengers to take a taxi in front of the railway station.

　　Can it be controlled or not?

　　At present, there are 11 cruise taxi enterprises in Liuzhou, and the number of cruise taxis is 2,398. Taxi refusal, arbitrary charging, carpooling and other chaos are management problems derived from the development of the taxi industry, and have always been the key rectification goals of taxi industry management departments across the country.

　　Regarding the chaos of taxis in Liuzhou City, the Liuzhou Municipal Transportation Administration responded: "There is no phenomenon that I dare not control, and there is no situation that I cannot control."

　　Hong Weilin, director of Liuzhou Road Transport Management Office, introduced that in recent years, the impact of online car-hailing and the increase in private car ownership have led to a sharp drop in the income of cruise taxi drivers, and some drivers expect to increase their income through carpooling and bargaining. At the same time, the taxi market is sluggish, the quality of the workforce is reduced, the main responsibility of the operator, and the weakening of administrative supervision have all led to taxi chaos.

　　After half a month of rectification, as of now, the Liuzhou Traffic Comprehensive Law Enforcement Detachment has carried out rectification and investigation of a total of 854 cruising taxis, accepted a total of 76 complaints, and verified that 1 complaint with prizes has been honored.

　　According to the rectification plan, anyone who refuses to intercept, negotiate, forcibly splice passengers, take a detour, or dump passengers halfway will be fined 2,000 yuan. Among them, a taxi with a license plate of Gui BT3935 from the car rental branch of Liuzhou Second Transportation Liability Co., Ltd. committed crimes against the wind within 3 days, and there were 2 illegal acts, and two fines of 1,000 yuan and 2,000 yuan were issued. A taxi with a license plate of Gui BT9762 from Liuzhou Tongbang Automobile Transportation Co., Ltd. has been temporarily detained for bargaining charges without dealing with the previous illegal act.

　　On February 13, people took a taxi at Liuzhou South Bus Station, and the driver got off to help carry luggage.

　　Rectification is not a gust of wind

　　Nowadays, the informatization construction of the taxi industry in Liuzhou has not kept up with the development of the times, and the on-board facilities have been seriously implemented. Some management systems in the industry have caused daily management to be difficult to be in place, and road law enforcement inspections alone cannot achieve overdue results. It is necessary to improve the long-term management mechanism and informatization construction as soon as possible.

　　Chen Jian, deputy director of the Liuzhou Transportation Bureau, said that in addition to increasing inspections and severe penalties for the chaos in the taxi industry, the city is planning to introduce some long-term management measures. These include the normalization of law enforcement supervision, the systematization of credit assessment, the intelligence of daily supervision, the popularization of civilization creation, the institutionalization of linkage management, and the legalization of operation management.

　　Through the development of a taxi driver registration system, unregistered taxi drivers will not be able to work in the future. At the same time, we will strengthen the assessment and management of taxi companies and drivers. Combined with administrative penalties and integrity assessments, we will study the blacklist mechanism. If it is serious, the driver’s qualification certificate will be cancelled, and other companies will not be allowed to hire again. In addition, we will use big data to improve on-board facilities and equipment, conduct scientific management, and use scientific and technological means to strengthen the supervision of drivers.

　　Cailian | New Consumer Daily March 16th (edited by Liang Youyun), around the annual "315 Consumer Rights Day", food safety has once again become a hot spot affecting people’s hearts.

　　Compared with traditional restaurants, new brands of tea and chain coffee have sprung up in recent years, and a cup of milk tea and coffee every day has become the daily life of many young urban white-collar workers. Marketing activities and ridicule such as "the first cup of milk tea in autumn" and "coffee for life" have influenced many consumers’ choices.

　　However, as a ready-made beverage, it is very easy to cause food safety problems in case of insufficient service training, irregular production process, inadequate hygiene and safety in stores, and disorderly supervision of franchise stores.

　　The New Consumer Daily collected and sorted out some "coffee and milk tea troubles" that have been exposed by relevant departments and hotly debated by netizens since 2022.

　　Drinking foreign bodies became the most common complaint.

　　"Drinking bugs in XXX", "Eating stones in XX" and "Finding hair in the package" have become the most frequently complained topics of netizens.

　　Black cat complaints search "foreign body" keywords, showing that the number of complaints as many as 33 thousand. Among them, brands such as Mi Xue Bing Cheng, Naixue Tea, Youlemei, Gu Ming Tea and Auntie in Shanghai have all received complaints from consumers about eating foreign objects in the past month.

　　Judging from the frequency of appearance, Mi Xue Ice City has become a "frequent visitor" on the list. Eating stones, finding hair in unopened drinks, black unidentified objects and sharp plastic thorns have all become complaints. On the platform, there are 4,820 complaints about Mi Xue Ice City, which is much higher than 1,431 complaints from aunts in Shanghai, 1,361 complaints about Naixue’s tea, 965 complaints about hi tea and 675 complaints about ancient tea.

　　On the whole, although brands such as Naixue Tea and Xicha, which are mainly self-operated stores, also have food hygiene complaints, from the data point of view, brand stores which are mainly franchised are more likely to be complained about foreign objects. With the more stores nationwide, there is a risk that the management control of the parent company will decline, and complaints will increase accordingly.

　　Brands should actively do a good job of self-inspection, eliminate potential safety hazards caused by irregular operation, and actively cooperate with relevant departments to check and rectify in time when signs are found. In this way, we can continue to retain consumers and enhance brand influence.

　　However, it must be pointed out that in many food safety complaints, it is true that some people maliciously add foreign objects to drinks to blackmail brands in order to obtain compensation.

　　Store health problems have become the focus of investigation.

　　According to the data from the General Administration of Market Supervision, there is a positive correlation between the number of complaints about consumption and the level of consumption activity. While the brand is actively doing business, it should also focus on health issues.

　　Store hygiene has always been the "hardest hit" in the catering industry. Unscrupulous merchants often use the kitchen or under the counter that consumers can’t see to hide their real environmental hygiene, food shelf life and irregular production. Milk tea, coffee and other products that need to add fresh fruit and fresh milk are also frequently notified and punished.

　　In 2021, Yihetang Store was exposed that the clerk did not apply for a health certificate, and many cockroaches were found in the food processing area. In mid-2022, another investigator found that Yihetang milk tea had food safety hazards such as the continued use of expired ingredients and the peeling of fruits by shop assistants. At the beginning of 2023, another customer reported through video that he had drunk foreign substances in Yihetang milk tea, which led customers to seek medical treatment for acute gastroenteritis.

　　In 2022, Starbucks, a well-known chain coffee brand, was also fined 10,000 yuan for expired food and altered shelf life.

　　On the eve of "315", according to WeChat official account of Beijing Consumers Association, Beijing Hemao Catering Co., Ltd. (signboard: Mi Xue Bing Cheng) was given an administrative warning and ordered to suspend business for rectification because it dismantled the disinfection pool of tools and appliances without authorization. This is the third time that the brand has received a warning and punishment from Beijing State Administration for Market Regulation in the past two years.

　　The use of expired raw materials, problem fruits, etc. seems to be a chronic disease in the industry, and it is often difficult for innocent consumers to prove that they are lucky enough not to eat anything different. Only when the parent company of the brand establishes an efficient management system and the market supervision and management department increases the density of attention and inspection can the irregular store operation be effectively deterred.

　　Food additives have sparked heated discussions.

　　The short video blogger’s phrase "technology and hard work" touched the nerves of many consumers. At present, many people often focus on the preservatives and flavors of bottled drinks, but the freshly made tea and coffee that can’t see the ingredient list should also be paid attention to.

　　As China’s food safety law only stipulates that there should be a label on the packaging in prepackaged foods, and the label must indicate the ingredients or ingredient list. However, in the face of the rapid rise of the labels and ingredients of ready-made drinks such as milk tea and coffee, there is no explicit requirement for labeling, and it is entirely up to the self-discipline of merchants.

　　Do you use real milk? Is it boiled with real tea? What is "0 candy"? What is the caffeine and sugar content of each drink? These problems often appear in the process of customer consumption.

　　In order to maintain the taste and reduce the production cost, beverages often use creamer, non-dairy creamer and other raw materials. Is it reasonable to add them? Is it harmful to human health? Become the hot topic of netizens.

　　At present, the deputies of Sichuan Provincial People’s Congress have proposed to amend and improve the Food Safety Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC) and increase the mandatory requirement of labeling the drinks that are now made and sold. At the same time, referring to the national food safety standards "General Rules for Labeling in prepackaged foods" and "General Rules for Nutrition Labeling in prepackaged foods", the labels of the drinks that are now made and sold should indicate the specific contents of energy, core nutrients and other nutrients such as sugar and vitamins and their percentage in nutrient reference values (NRV).

　　Drinks are also "short of two pounds"?

　　In addition to food safety, the "shrinking" of beverages has also become a topic of concern to netizens recently.

　　On the eve of 315, Rui Xing and Modern China Tea Shop were spat in succession. Among them, Luckin Coffee has only half a cup left in the cup after ice removal; In Modern China Tea Shop, after the milk foam melts, there are only two-thirds of the drinks left in the cup. In this regard, the response of the above two brands is similar, that is, the drinks in the store are made according to the standard process, and the reduction of drinks is normal.

　　The New Consumer Daily observed that in addition to the above two brands, many milk tea brands have noted in the delivery that there is a lack of ice or some ingredients after removal.

　　According to people in the industry, the way to remove ice is to shake the ice cubes with a full cup of beverage, and then filter the ice cubes after the beverage cools down, so there will be some defects in the final product. Regarding the problem that there is no shortage of drinks, the person said that in order to ensure a unified taste, the amount of ice is different, and the proportion of raw materials for drinks will be different. Previously, shop assistants would make their own supplements, but in recent years, due to the increasingly strict in-store monitoring, shop assistants must make them according to the process, and dissatisfaction with cups has become the norm.

　　Some lawyers have warned that this behavior may constitute fraud. Although there is no subjective malice and concealment of the brand, a big difference can still constitute the essence of short weight. Consumers can complain and report to 12315, or file a lawsuit. After the fraud is determined, they can claim triple compensation, starting from 500 yuan.

　　The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is the longest and largest man-made canal in the world, and it is also one of the oldest canals. Together with the Great Wall and the karez, it is known as the three great projects of ancient China. It is a great project created by the working people of ancient China and one of the symbols of Chinese cultural status.

　　According to the records, as early as more than 300 years ago, Siyang Zhongxing Town was used as a key point for water transportation, a place where officials, merchants, and Zao Gang boatmen traveled on boats and horses, or went to the three gates in the south to experience risks, or came to the north to be in shock, all of which had the psychological need to pray and hope. There were Fujian people who built a palace on Mule Street to worship the statue of Mazu, and it was originally called "Tianfei Palace". It was a meeting place for Fujian merchants to develop business, and it was also a place for them to pray and worship. Later, Emperor Kangxi gave it the seal and renamed it "Tianhou Palace". The whole group of buildings of Tianhou Palace was originally three-way, and now there are the front hall and the main hall. The eaves of the front hall are stoned with "Haiyan" and "Heqing", and the calligraphy is dignified and elegant, which sustains the deep prayers of the people There is an open-air stone statue of Mazu in the courtyard, wearing a phoenix crown, holding Ruyi in the hand, solemn and kind, elegant and handsome facing the canal, as if walking on the waves.

　　Here has also become the only Mazu cultural relics on the Thousand Miles Canal. The temples here are managed by Buddhist people, and the statues in the main hall are also unique. Mazu sits in the front, followed by Sakyamuni Buddha, and is incense by Buddhist believers at all times.

　　The Middle Canal, the northern section of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in Jiangsu, and the Yishusi river system. It was rebuilt on the basis of the Canal and the Middle River excavated in the Ming and Qing dynasties. It starts at the junction of Taierzhuang District, Shandong Province and Pizhou City, Jiangsu Province, and is connected to the Hanzhuang Canal. It flows through Pizhou City in the southeast, and is connected to Luoma Lake from Erwan to Zaohe Gate in Xinyi County. The following Zaohe Gate is basically parallel to the abandoned Yellow River, flowing through Suqian, Siyang, and Huaiyin Yangzhuang. It is 179 kilometers long and has a basin area of 6,800 square kilometers.

　　The main tributaries are: Bulao River, Picang Floodway, Laoxi River, Chenghe River, Fangting River, Minjian River, etc. There are cascade hub projects (including control locks, ship locks and pumping stations) along the Zao River, Suqian, Liulaojian, and Siyang.

　　Before the Qing Dynasty, the Middle Canal was mainly a water transportation route. After liberation, it became a comprehensive river channel such as flood discharge, drainage, shipping, and water transportation. It was a part of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and a water transportation channel for the east route of the South-to-North Water Diversion, which promoted the economic development of the riverside areas.

　　The single-engine ships sailing in the channel, the fleet is like a long dragon carrying more than 10,000 tons of cargo. The smallest island in the channel, the entire island is only 100 square meters.

　　The water quality of the canal is excellent, and the water in the canal can be drunk directly. There are scenery on both sides of the canal, and now it is time for gardenias to bloom.

　　The boat on the canal, the boss of the boat is here to pick up fishing enthusiasts, and there are people all over the country who go fishing by the middle canal.

　　In summer, the weather is changeable, and there are sudden thunderstorms, and fishermen with rainproof gear head home. Fishing in the river in summer is also very dangerous. They used to use small wooden boats, and the traditional skill of building wooden boats has been lost. Now most of them are steel boats, and the potential danger comes with it.

　　The people living by the canal are particularly happy, with beautiful scenery everywhere, culture every step of the way, and the extensive and profound canal culture has been passed down from generation to generation!

　　By the canal, there are exciting scenes everywhere.

　　The Grand Canal in the setting sun is quiet and comfortable, vast and far-reaching… This golden waterway will be even better tomorrow!

　　Intermediaries are an important part of the real estate market. Due to the changes in the real estate market in recent years, incidents of intermediaries "asking for salaries" from developers have also occurred from time to time.

　　Recently, a document titled "Notice on Matters Related to Shenzhen Zhongyuan Feedback Commission Advance" circulated on the Internet, in which the information that "each developer/agent has not paid Shenzhen Zhongyuan’s commission exceeds 1 billion" attracted attention.

　　Well-known intermediaries post for commissions

　　The signature of the online document is "Shi Junrong, CEO of Zhongyuan Group", and the time is August 11, 2023.

　　According to the document, in recent years, the real estate industry has been sluggish, and developers’ capital chains have been broken and thunderous, unable to pay the sales commissions of Zhongyuan Group and its related companies normally, resulting in consecutive huge losses and difficult operations.

　　According to First Finance, insiders of Zhongyuan Group confirmed the authenticity of the above documents to First Finance.

　　"According to the practice of the real estate sales industry for many years, the income of sales personnel includes basic salary and commission, and the commission needs to be paid after receiving the sales commission from the developer/agent." The above-mentioned commission payment system has been implemented by Zhongyuan Group since its establishment 45 years ago, and the basic salary part of employees has always been paid in full on time every month, and there has never been any delay in salary or malicious arrears of salary.

　　Regarding the commissions not received by employees, the above-mentioned document states that if Shenzhen Zhongyuan is required to advance the commission without receiving the sales commission from the developer/agent, even if only the commission of the grassroots employees is advanced, the amount of funds that need to be advanced has exceeded 400 million yuan, which will make the company’s operation more difficult. For the reasons mentioned above, Zhongyuan Group and Shenzhen Zhongyuan do not have the prerequisites for advance payment of employee commissions and partner commissions without receiving the sales commission from the developer/agent. However, considering the living difficulties of some particularly difficult employees, the board of directors of Zhongyuan Group has decided to issue special hardship pensions to employees with special difficulties. Employees with special needs can submit applications according to the process, and the group employee association will review and approve them.

　　Involving Evergrande, Baoneng, etc

　　According to public information, Shenzhen Zhongyuan belongs to Zhongyuan Group, which was established in 1978 and is a large-scale comprehensive real estate service enterprise mainly engaged in real estate agency business, including property management, measurement and valuation, mortgage agency, asset management, data integration, and investment immigration.

　　The company’s official website shows that currently, Zhongyuan Group has more than 55,000 employees, 2,500 directly-operated floor shops, and has established branches in 60 cities around the world, with business reaching hundreds of cities. It has become a pioneer and leader in the real estate agency industry.

　　According to the Shanghai Securities News, Shenzhen Zhongyuan is the abbreviation of Zhongyuan Real Estate Agency (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. It is a large professional real estate agency company in Shenzhen. Since 2001, the number and sales volume of real estate agents in the secondary market have accounted for the main share of the Shenzhen real estate market.

　　Shenzhen Zhongyuan provides research services for government land investment, full consultation planning and sales agency services for developers, and residential, office, shop, factory rental and sales brokerage services, as well as mortgage, appraisal and other services for customers in Shenzhen and Hong Kong.

　　The above-mentioned document states that in recent years, the real estate industry has been sluggish, and the capital chains of major developers have been broken one after another. They have been unable to pay the sales commissions of Zhongyuan Group and its related companies normally, resulting in consecutive huge losses and difficult operations.According to statistics, the developers/agents have not paid Shenzhen Zhongyuan commission more than 1 billionThe court has initiated a lawsuit to pursue the amount of 535 million yuan.Where the court has ruled that the amount of enforcement exceeded 400 millionThe amount to be judged 135 million multiple.

　　At present, the main developers and projects sued by Shenzhen Zhongyuan include Kaisa, Hengda, Baoneng, Shimao, Longguang, and Jixiangli. The above-mentioned real estate developers who have been sued recently are also subject to various news.

　　According to First Finance, Bai Wenxi, vice chairperson of China Enterprise Capital Alliance and chief economist of IPG China, told First Finance that from the perspective of creditor repayment order, the payment of intermediary sales commission should be classified as ordinary creditor’s rights, and the general supplier is in the same sequence, and the repayment order is after the senior debt rights with secured mortgage and other credit enhancement conditions, and before preference share.

　　Bai Wenxi said that in the process of chasing commissions, real estate intermediaries can seize as many of the other party’s effective assets and key current accounts as possible by means of pre-litigation preservation, and then fully negotiate with the other party to achieve maximum reconciliation as much as possible, so as to recover claims as soon as possible.

　　Shenzhen second-hand housingDeal size shrinks

　　A massive loss of employees

　　Data from the Shenzhen Real Estate Intermediaries Association shows that since 2020, the transaction volume of second-hand houses in Shenzhen has continued to decline. From 2020 to 2022, the number of second-hand houses signed online in Shenzhen (the number of sales and purchase contracts initiated on the Shenzhen real estate information platform, and the number of non-final transactions) was 120,295, 44,375, and 26,853, respectively. The number of second-hand houses recorded in the first half of this year was 20,852, only a fraction of the peak in 2020.

　　On July 12 this year, data disclosed by the Shenzhen Real Estate Intermediaries Association revealed that the average monthly turnover of second-hand real estate agents in Shenzhen in the first half of this year was 0.09 units per person, translating to an intermediary who could only sell 1.08 units a year.

　　In recent years, the scale of second-hand housing transactions in Shenzhen has shrunk, leading to a large loss of employees.

　　"At the peak of the market, there were more than 60,000 star-rated intermediaries (real-name registration practitioners) in Shenzhen, but now there are only more than 20,000 people left, and the industry is struggling to survive," said a relevant person from the Shenzhen Fangfang Association. In addition, the "newcomer rate" of Shenzhen’s intermediary industry in the first half of this year was about 21.6%. In 2020, when the market is hot, 49.3% of practitioners are newcomers.

　　The Shenzhen Real Estate Intermediaries Association pointed out that the first-quarter "phased Xiaoyangchun" market in Shenzhen’s second-hand housing market came to an abrupt end after entering April. Even from the second quarter, the monthly transaction volume continued to drop, and returned to the embarrassing situation of less than 3,000 units per month during the annual epidemic. In the final analysis, after the market bottomed out, market confidence has not been completely restored. After entering the second half of the year, with the accumulation of new housing sales pressure, the white-hot competition for second-hand housing and the weakening of market expectations for policies, in the absence of any support to stabilize expectations, it may be difficult for the market to reproduce a similar "phased Xiaoyangchun" market in the first quarter in the near future.

On December 6th, Autonavi Maps launched a new truck navigation function, which is a new feature introduced by Autonavi Maps for special needs groups after the launch of barrier-free maps. Truck navigation can help many drivers accurately avoid the restricted and restricted routes of trucks, making it smarter and safer to travel in large cars.

With the rapid development of logistics freight and e-commerce, truck drivers have now become a very large social group. According to statistics, there are currently about 30 million truck drivers in China, and there are 15 million road freight vehicles, with an average of more than 84 million tons of goods in transit every day.

Due to the strong demand for long-distance, long-distance and multi-frequency travel, truck drivers rely heavily on mobile maps and navigation applications. Autonavi traffic big data shows that trucks in some areas use navigation for an average of more than 400 minutes in a month. At present, there is no accurate and easy-to-use product in the mainstream map applications in China that can fully meet the requirements of truck drivers.

"Trucks should have the highest requirements for navigation and map data fineness among all vehicle types." The relevant person in charge of Autonavi Maps said that due to the strict height, width, weight, and travel restrictions on the road, once the truck enters the restricted road section, it is more difficult for the truck to turn around, not only to pay fines for violations, but also to cause road congestion and even cause safety risks.

There have been many similar cases this year. In late November this year, under the overpass of Jianshe Road, West Third Ring Road, Zhengzhou City, a refrigerated truck was stuck under the overpass while passing a bridge with a height limit of 3 meters. Traffic data showed that after the accident, the congestion delay index of the relevant road section (the travel time of traffic congestion passing/the travel time of free flow passing, the higher the index, the more serious the congestion) peaked at 4.11, and the congestion delay index was greater than 1.8 for about 8 hours throughout the day.

Autonavi map truck navigation is to solve the urgent needs of 30 million truck drivers. When drivers use it for the first time, they can directly use this function by adding basic parameters such as truck type, brand, weight, length and width. During the use of truck navigation, Autonavi map performs intelligent calculation based on high-precision big data, and will automatically plan a navigation route that meets the restrictions of all aspects of the truck they drive. The road is safe and smooth to avoid violations and dangers.

It is understood that the current Autonavi map has covered more than one million truck weight limits, height limits, width limits, axle load limits, travel restrictions, bans and other road information across the country. In addition, the Autonavi map also specially adds the location data of truck checkpoints across the country, and provides navigation and voice reminders during the navigation process, allowing drivers to know the number and location of checkpoints.

Another new feature of the Autonavi map, "Team", is also very suitable for the needs of truck drivers. The so-called "team" means that drivers share each other’s real-time location through the same group of team passwords, and can be displayed in real time on each other’s Autonavi map navigation interface, which is convenient for each other to view and find. Since truck drivers often start in teams when delivering goods, and the journey is long, they can take care of each other through the "team" function of the Autonavi map. In addition, with the help of this function, cargo owners and card sisters can also check the real-time location of drivers and keep abreast of their movements.

"Truck navigation once again reflects Autonavi Maps’ professional and profound accumulation in big data." The person in charge said that Autonavi Maps has Class A surveying and mapping qualifications for navigation electronic maps, Class A qualifications for surveying and mapping aerial photography, and Class A surveying and mapping qualifications for Internet map services. As of the first half of 2017, Autonavi traffic big data has covered 360 + cities across the country, as well as 7.90 million kilometers of navigation road data, with more than 400 kinds of road attribute information alone.

The launch of truck navigation has once again enriched the travel services of the Autonavi map easy platform. The easy platform is the one-stop public travel service platform first launched by Autonavi in the middle of this year. It has previously been connected to many travel service providers such as Didi Chuxing, Shenzhou Special Car, Shouqi Car, Mobike, ofo, and Flying Pig.

　　Haze has made people aware of the existence of PM2.5, serious diseases have made people aware of the harm of formaldehyde, and air purification products have gradually gained recognition from the majority of users. But users who have in-depth understanding know that although air purifiers have obvious effects, they actually treat the symptoms rather than the root cause. The ultimate solution for indoor air purification is a fresh fan.

　　Xiaomi, which used to revolutionize the air purifier market with its signature price/performance ratio, is here again with a new fan. The average price of high-performance new fans over 10,000 is the threshold for its low awareness and popularity. Now Xiaomi is ready to break the industry’s profits again.

　　On November 6, the official Weibo of Mijia officially released the Mijia fresh fan. The price of 2XXX was reasonable and unexpected. As for whether this product really provided extremely high performance at a very low price, the Global Network Technology Channel was invited to experience it in advance to bring you a first-hand experience.

　　A fresh fan is to an air purifier what an air conditioner is to a refrigerator

　　Does indoor air purification require only an air purifier? Of course not.

　　Air purifiers can purify indoor air quickly and efficiently, which is an indisputable fact, but the source of indoor air is still outdoor. If the outdoor air is out of the meter, you can’t open the window, and if you don’t open the window, you can’t ventilate. Even if there is an indoor air purifier, it just keeps self-circulating, and the concentration of carbon dioxide will get higher and higher. Finally, you have to open the window to introduce the outdoor air containing oxygen, and then use the air purifier to purify it.

　　But opening the window once, polluting the indoor air once, and then purifying it again and again, this operation will repeatedly harm health. And directly opening the window and using an air purifier is exaggerated to say that it is equivalent to purifying the entire atmosphere (impossible to do), just like opening the refrigerator door and trying to use the refrigerator to cool the entire room. The self-circulation of the air purifier will naturally make the indoor air cleaner and cleaner, but the air quality is not only an indicator of PM 2.5. At present, carbon dioxide has been included in the current indoor air Quality Standards at home and abroad, and there is a broader consensus that talking about air quality without carbon dioxide is a hooligan. Air that lacks oxygen, no matter how clean it ****** also dangerous to life. This is the importance of fresh fans.

　　From the perspective of the Mijia new fan, the lower part of the trend has a punch or so, which directly introduces the outdoor air, and then filters through the lower, middle and upper layers to send the trend air from the top, which solves the problem of oxygen-containing air source.

　　What kind of fresh fan is Mijia fresh fan?

　　When people hear "fresh air", they are often linked to "fresh air system", which actually refers to the central fresh air system. Generally, air is sent into each room through pipes, which needs to be installed before decoration (hard installation). Most of them are ceiling type, which is more popular in Europe and the United States. However, the central fresh air system occupies a floor height, and it is inconvenient to replace the filter screen. The total cost of final purchase and installation is generally more than 30,000 yuan.

　　As people pay more attention to air quality, the demand for fresh fans after installation has increased, and wall-mounted fresh fans have appeared on the market, which is the category that Mijia fresh fans belong to. The cost of wall-mounted fresh fans is generally around 10,000 yuan, and they can be installed at any time without laying pipes. The installation of Mijia fresh fans only takes two hours, and the bottom air inlet hole is still reserved on the side. Users with insufficient wall space in their homes can install them horizontally. If the property does not allow openings, glass openings can also be selected. Therefore, Mijia fresh fans are very competitive in terms of economic cost and energy cost.

　　The Mijia fresh fan adopts a touch-sensitive OLED display screen, which can be operated directly after displaying the value. The design of the whole machine follows the simple style of Mijia, and it does not violate the integration into the home design.

　　In terms of working principle, the Mijia fresh air fan uses a DC inverter fan to intake air from the bottom air inlet hole, and passes through the lower anti-mosquito filter, the middle-layer medium-efficiency filter, and the upper-layer H13 high-efficiency filter, for a total of three layers of filtration. The anti-mosquito filter adopts a box design to block large particles such as outdoor mosquitoes; the medium-efficiency filter has a removal rate of 80% for particles above PM 0.4; the H13 high-efficiency filter has a power efficiency of more than 99.97% for particles above PM 0.3, and the sterilization rate of Staphylococcus albicans is > 99.9%.

　　What’s more eye-catching in terms of parameters is that the Mijia fresh fan has a ventilation capacity of 300m3/h, which is the high performance of about 10,000 yuan of products on the market. It can ventilate a family with a usage area of 105 square meters 1.1 times an hour. However, the quality of the product still needs to be determined by the actual experience.

　　Actual use effect

　　In order to verify the purification effect of the Mijia fresh fan, we conducted a simulation test: using dry ice to increase the indoor carbon dioxide concentration, using toilet water to simulate indoor formaldehyde and other tVOC pollutants, and closed the window and closed the door in the bedroom (about 30 square meters) where the Mijia fresh fan was installed. When there is severe hypoxia and the aroma is tangy, the data of the Qingping air detector shows that the instantaneous carbon dioxide concentration in the house reaches 4713 ppm, and the tVOV concentration reaches 4.46mg/m3. Far beyond the reasonable indoor range: carbon dioxide below 1000ppm and tVOC should be between 0.2 and 2mg/m.

　　Half an hour later, when we entered the bedroom again, there was already a slight chill, the air was as cold as if the window was open, the smell of perfume was impossible, and the air was very fresh. At this time, the reading of Qingping’s air detector showed that the concentration of carbon dioxide was 508 ppm, and the concentration of tVOC dropped to 0.859 mg/m3. In fact, when the test was carried out for 15 minutes, the concentration of tVOC had reached a reasonable range of close to 1 mg/m3.

　　After the actual test, the ventilation effect of the Mijia fresh fan is indeed obvious, and if installed in one room, it can actually ventilate the whole family, just like opening the balcony window.

　　The most impressive thing is that when you stand in front of the machine with the window closed, you can only hear the noise of the outdoor road, and you can’t feel the operation of the machine at all. It is understood that the Mijia fresh fan is only 35.4 decibels under the maximum air volume, and the sleep mode is as low as 20.4 decibels, which is basically half of the general noise of commercial products.

　　At this point in our experience, we almost forgot about PM 2.5. The original value has been reduced from 6.3 to 2.2. It seems that as long as it is turned on, the indoor air quality has no need to worry at all. But some users may wonder, Mijia fresh fan does not have activated carbon filter element, how to remove formaldehyde?

　　In fact, the air purifier uses activated carbon to absorb formaldehyde only for collection and storage, and there is a risk of secondary volatilization when the indoor temperature is high. The fresh fan uses a continuous ventilation method to let formaldehyde squeeze out of the door and window seams with the "micro-positive pressure" formed by the fresh air entering the house.

　　It is worth noting that formaldehyde does not only exist in houses that have just been renovated. Over time, cracking of wooden furniture joints and tilting of the skin will cause the originally sealed formaldehyde to continue to evaporate, so continuous ventilation is the way to treat the symptoms and root causes.

　　When Mijia products are as ubiquitous as air

　　Users who have paid a little attention can feel that Mijia’s products have become more and more abundant. Nowadays, air purification products have also extended from air purifiers to fresh fans. As long as they are users who can shop online, they all have one or two Xiaomi ecological chain products. They are really as ubiquitous as air.

　　While Mijia products bring benefits, what’s more important is to string together smart life. Mijia new fan also supports Xiao Ai voice control, which can synergy with other Mijia smart home products. Of course, there are also mobile phone remote control switches, air volume adjustment, electric auxiliary heat adjustment, check the status of consumables, etc.

　　Obviously, no matter how consumption is upgraded or downgraded, our spending on health cannot be saved, and air is the most important element for survival. Therefore, we also hope that with the promotion of Xiaomi, more users will understand the necessity of buying new fans and make the right choice for the health of their families.
